In fact, the scenes that the hundred households were thinking about, such as why the scholars were not allowed to bring people when they made trouble, the Guozi priest did not obey the decree, and did not let them take Yi Xingzhi and Wang Huaiwen away, this kind of bullshit scene did not appear.

First, after all, he came by the emperor's order, and second, the emperor in the middle of the night wanted to meet such two prisoners who were not usually very brilliant, and it was not a big deal. Therefore, this brocade guard Baihu was quite smooth to take Yi Xingzhi and Wang Huaiwen out of the country. The remaining twenty-four prisoners of the Qingfeng Pavilion were worried in their hearts, fearing that something was wrong.

Yi Xingzhi, who was stuffed into the carriage and taken away, was also worried, and after thinking about it, Yi Xingzhi said to Wang Huaiwen: "Brother Wang, this time it is most likely that the younger brother's rebellious words have been denounced, if there is anything, the younger brother will bear it with all his might, and it will never affect Brother Wang." ”

Wang Huaiwen, who had already closed his eyes and recuperated and planned to leave a good impression on the emperor, opened his eyes and smiled: "Brother Yi is joking?" ”

Yi Xingzhi smiled bitterly: "Why did Brother Wang say this? The younger brother is now worried in his heart, and he is afraid that disaster is coming. ”

Wang Huaiwen looked at Yi Xingzhi for a while, and saw that his expression did not seem to be fake, so he smiled and said, "Where did this disaster come from?" Isn't it Brother Yi, you are stupid to study in the land of Taixi? ”

Yi Xingzhi said curiously: "Brother Wang, isn't he making fun of the little brother?" Is that a good thing? ”

Wang Huaiwen smiled: "Naturally, it's a good thing. After I came back from the Qingfeng Pavilion, how long did it take for the Jinyi Guard to come to the door, do you know why? ”

Yi Xingzhi replied honestly: "I still hope that Brother Wang will teach me." ”

Wang Huaiwen said: "There is only a slight possibility, that Qingfeng Pavilion was originally the eyeliner to which Jinyiwei belonged. Today in the Qingfeng Pavilion, you said that you would give up the entrance examination and enter the Shike, and the twenty-five of us simply wanted to give up the imperial examination completely, which has been unprecedented since the National Dynasty, how dare the spies in the Qingfeng Pavilion hide it? I'm afraid that when I wait for the front foot to leave, the back foot will already reach the heavens. ”

Because Wang Huaiwen did not lower his voice when he spoke, even the Jinyiwei outside the car also heard it clearly, and the hundred households also secretly admired it, this scholar's brain is good, and he figured out this joint in a blink of an eye, and he really should get Jinyiwei.

The hundred households outside the carriage were full of nonsense, but Yi Xingzhi, who was sitting in the carriage, breathed a sigh of relief and said to Wang Huaiwen: "In this way, this time it should be summoned by the Son of Heaven, and I will be ordered to wait for you and me to go back to the imperial examination?" ”

Wang Huaiwen also replied honestly: "It shouldn't be." If you are ordered to wait for you and me to go back to the imperial examination, as long as there is a will tomorrow to come down and scold it, why do you need to send you and me into the palace in the middle of the night? That's it, I don't want to. It won't be a bad thing anyway. ”

Yi Xingzhi was cranky, scared himself, and Wen Tiren and Shi Fenglai, who were picked up from bed by Jinyiwei, were also thinking wildly. Today's nonsense of this Son of Heaven is only afraid that it is better than the Zhengde Son of Heaven who named a guy named Zhu Shou was the general, and he didn't know what was going on in the middle of the night, so he had to summon the two of himself into the palace.

After entering the palace, after hearing what Tian Ergeng said, Wen Tiren was also uncertain in his heart. Looking at the emperor's appearance, he is obviously not angry, and he shouldn't make any big trouble, but these prisoners are too fucking not to make people die. You said you deliberately didn't do it? Even if you win, is it okay to ask for grace again? Doing this now, it is obviously what His Majesty said is not playing cards according to the routine!

Chongzhen looked at Wen Tiren in front of him, who was no longer in his old demeanor and his expression was uncertain, and he was also amused in his heart: "Wen Aiqing, let's talk about it, what kind of charter should this matter be?" ”

Wen Tiren was entangled for a long time, and finally spoke: "Your Majesty, this matter is too involved, and the ministers dare not make a decision. ”

Chongzhen hummed and said, "Even if you say something, it doesn't hurt to say anything wrong. ”

Wen Tiren thought about it for a while, and said: "These twenty-six prisoners withdrew from the imperial examination together and did not take the test, not to mention that it is this dynasty, that is, since the imperial examination was held in the former Sui Dynasty, they have not heard of it. Especially after Song Wangzhu wrote a prodigy poem, the world is proud of reading. After reading the book, it is the proper meaning to be an official. What these 26 prisoners are doing now is really a precedent that has not been seen for hundreds of years. What's more, he doesn't take a penny, just to teach the children of poor people to read, which is inevitably suspicious of inviting people to buy people's hearts. ”

After listening to Wen Tiren's analysis, Chongzhen looked at Shi Fenglai again. After hearing that Shi Fenglai's answer was basically the same as Wen Tiren's, Chongzhen spoke: "That's it." I have already ordered someone to summon these two people into the palace, and when the time comes, the two Aiqing will take a good look at what kind of characters this Yi Xingzhi and Wang Huaiwen are, and then make a decision. ”

Just when Chongzhen, Wen and Shi were chattering, Yi Xingzhi and Wang Huaiwen also came to the palace. The etiquette of temporarily teaching the two to see the driver was obviously too late, so the eunuch on duty hurriedly instructed a few necessary etiquette, and then hurriedly led the two to meet the driver.

When Wang Huaiwen was outside the palace, he was quite calm, but when he saw the real person of Emperor Chongzhen, he could no longer suppress the tension in his heart, and he knelt on the ground with Yi Xingzhi, and shouted long live.

Chongzhen, who intended to test the two, did not order them to get up, until the bodies of the two lying on the ground trembled slightly, and then Chongzhen said: "It's all flat." ”

Yi Xinghe and Wang Huaiwen were pardoned, and after thanking them, they hurriedly got up from the ground, but Chongzhen's next words were so frightened that the two of them fell to the ground again: "You guys are so bold, what's the matter, the Jinshi of this dynasty, you just look down on it like this, and you want to give up this imperial examination directly?" ”

Wang Huaiwen dared to take the lead in doing things when many prisoners and prisoners of the country gathered, and he was not a person with a firm voice, although he was afraid in his heart at this time, he still stubbornly said: "Your Majesty, today's matter, the crime lies with the students, I hope Your Majesty will forgive you." ”

Seeing that Chongzhen was still looking at himself, smiling and silent, Wang Huaiwen continued: "It's not that students don't look down on the Jinshi Science Examination, but the students are reckless, even if they take the exam, they won't get much results." sighed at the experience of his classmate Yi Xingzhi, and when he was angry, he thought about opening a few more private schools to teach the children of poor families who could not afford to read to read and write. ”

Chongzhen sighed, but he no longer paid attention to Wang Huaiwen, and asked Yi Xingzhi instead: "Where did you study abroad?" ”

Yi Xingzhi said: "Your Majesty, the place where students study is a small country called Portugal, although the country is small, the sailors and firearms are quite desirable. Moreover, the other country is still living in Ho Jing O. ”

Nima! Wen Tiren and Shi Fenglai, who heard this, felt that the blood vessels on their scalp were pounding. This is too damn too much, it's a household registration certificate that the officials of Hao Jingao helped you get or something, and you just sold them when you turned around, is it appropriate?

Even if you sell it, you can't just sell it in front of the emperor, if this emperor slaps his head and decides to slap his head and slap the Yiren of Haojingao, the Ming treasury eats jujube pills, bastard!

Chongzhen also knew about this section, and when he heard this, he just sighed, and said lightly: "I already know about this matter, and I will deal with it later." ”

Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Chongzhen ordered the two to retreat, and then said to Wen Tiren and Shi Fenglai: "What do you two Aiqing think?" ”

Wen Tiren said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that among the two people, Yi Xingzhi is a pure heart, although he has lived in overseas barbarian land for a long time, but he does not change his heart, he is a rare talent. As for Wang Huaiwen, although he is also enthusiastic, it is difficult to ensure that he will have other thoughts in the future, so he can use it, but it cannot be used. ”

Shi Fenglai also said: "The minister seconded the proposal." The matter of opening social studies should not be led by Wang Huaiwen's son, otherwise the people of the world will think of it, and it will be easy for this son to have other thoughts that he should not have. ”

When Chongzhen heard this, he suddenly asked Wen Tiren: "How is the original social science of the Ming Dynasty?" ”

Wen Tiren bowed and said: "Your Majesty, since the time of the pseudo-Yuan, with fifty households as a society, set up social studies, choose those who are familiar with scriptures as teachers, teach and educate, and let the children enter school during the agricultural slack, read the "Book of Filial Piety", "Primary School", "University", "Analects", "Mencius", and persuade farmers and mulberries with teaching. I inherited the Yuan system, and all prefectures, prefectures, and counties established social studies, teaching etiquette such as the imperial edict, the laws and decrees of the dynasty, and the crown, marriage, funeral, sacrifice, etc., as well as the calculation of the history and so on. However, there are many poor people in ordinary people's families, and in fact, when children reach their teens, most of them have to follow adults into the fields to cultivate. ”

Chongzhen pondered for a long time, and then said: "Social science has a name, so let him have a name." If there are children in the family who join the society, they are exempt from their endowment. Until his son went out of social studies. If there are children in the family and do not enter social studies, it will be given an additional layer. ”

Wen Tiren smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty's holy grace, the ministers also remember the five on behalf of the people." However, it is still not possible to avoid the matter of increasing the amount of money so that the people can send their children to school. ”

Chongzhen was curious when he heard this: "Why? ”

Wen Tiren said: "Your Majesty, it is because of the pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and book. The three treasures of pen, ink, and inkstone are easy to say, and even books are easy to say, but this paper is a troublesome matter. The paper made by the bamboo paper method cannot be used for writing at all, as for the leather paper, although it can be used for writing, it is not much weaker than rice paper, but its preparation method is not weaker than rice paper much, and the price cannot be reduced. ”

"A weak boy from the day he learns to write, until the fifteenth and out of social studies, the paper used, I am afraid that there are no less than 100,000 sheets, if you use a sand table to learn to write, it is also possible, but this book, but always have to be copied down, in this way, how can ordinary people afford to spend it?"

His mother! Chongzhen scolded secretly, but he hated himself for being a pig's brain, why didn't he write down all these things such as mechanical manufacturing, hydrothermal power generation, as long as he got out of electricity and machines, these problems were a fart! When the time comes, Lao Tzu will have paper for you to do, and you can use it to wipe your buttocks.

However, it is useless to think about these things now, Chongzhen has not been able to create these things since the beginning of the crossing, and he still can't make these things. But it doesn't matter, if you have difficulties, find Xu Guangqi! Chongzhen said simply: "The matter of paper, put it aside for the time being." Let's talk about these two scholars and social studies first. ”

"I, let's set a tone today, children under the age of fifteen must enter social studies, there is no need to discuss this!"
