Being able to write the first admissions brochure of the academy, Luo Furen was very excited, and he didn't sleep all night to write a thick stack. Ma Du couldn't cry or laugh, "I said Mr. Luo, you are planning to spread the word to the world and recruit all the students who have no education in the Ming Dynasty to the academy, I can't afford to raise so many people now." ”

Luo Furen stroked his beard and said: "If you really have such a mind, it doesn't matter if the old man doesn't want a salary." "He came from a poor background, and he knows how difficult it is for the children of ordinary people to study.

Ma Du is afraid that he will have a mind and no head, if he dares to do this, Lao Zhu will be the first to finish with him. Luo Furen's hard work overnight was destined to be in vain, Ma Du only took a few copies of the brochure, and only asked people to post it in Yingtian and Gyeonggi counties, but the result was still beyond his expectations.

The day before the start of school, more than 300 people came to the academy to register, and most of them met the requirements of Ma Du, all of them were under the age of 18, had a certain cultural foundation, and all had household registration certificates issued by the county government, and it was very important to be innocent.

If Lao Zhu's son had an accident here, there would be no need to open this academy. In order to prevent the scribes of the county government from eating and taking cards, Ma Du also sent people to the counties to keep an eye on them, but fortunately, Uncle Ma Guo's face was very good, and the people in the county government were more cooperative.

According to the current situation, the number of applicants who come to register for the academy tomorrow may increase to 500. It has exceeded the existing number of students in the college, and has also exceeded the carrying capacity of the college. There are no students to worry about, and a lot of them are headaches all of a sudden, so Ma Du has no choice but to choose the best.

Zhu Sheng was very angry about this, "Finally, a student came to study, but what is the reason why you want to turn it away." The old man gave lectures by the river back then, and the conditions were very different from those of the academy, and the students were still happy. Studying is a hard thing to do, and people who are dedicated to learning don't care about these conditions. ”

Zhu Sheng said at every turn that he was lecturing by the river, as if it was a very honorable thing to let his students go to class and sleep in a grass hut, which was far from the concept of education that Ma Du could not be poor no matter how poor he was.

"In the final analysis, the younger generation is still thinking about the health of a few gentlemen, the teachers of the academy are insufficient, and a few gentlemen are old, how can it be good if so many disciples are tired."

"Preach and teach to solve doubts, and the old man is willing to die of exhaustion." Zhu Sheng sighed but said, "That's it, that's it, the old man will go and get the test papers." ”

These shameless old literati have always said one thing and done another, for example, Luo Furen has been saying that he wants to donate his salary two days ago, but there has been no movement until now.

Liu Ji, Song Lian, Zhang Yi and others, who never looked at the academy, sent congratulatory messages one after another.

As for the Huaixi Gang who let the children eat and drink in the academy for nothing, they couldn't sit still, and sent the children early not to mention, but also took the initiative to donate a lot of school construction fees. If there is really no competition, there is no pressure, and there is no motivation without pressure, and Ma Du feels that the admissions brochure of the college is really wise.

Li Shanchang was busy and personally sent his son Li Fang over, and said meaningfully to Ma Du: "The old man thought that you opened the academy to make a good relationship among our Huaixi people, but I didn't expect your appetite to be much bigger." ”

Ma Du understood, it turned out that this old guy thought that he was going to cultivate a new generation of Huaixi Gang and prepare to be the leader of the next generation of Huaixi Gang. The old fox really thinks long-term, but it's a pity that he can't see through Lao Zhu, the Huaixi Gang is destined to have only one generation, and Ma Du will not be a bullshit leader.

Ma Du replied with a smile: "Li Gong did misunderstand, I just want to pass on my grandfather's knowledge and fulfill my responsibilities as a child." ”

Li Shan said earnestly: "There is no need to explain to the old man, the old man has nothing to fight for, and his body is not as good as before, the age gap between you and me is too big to get together, there is nothing to avoid." The old man is hoping that we Huaixi people can have two more brilliant characters like you. ”

Just listen to his words, Lao Li is very cautious on the outside and inside, if he takes his words seriously, it will be considered a loss.

What surprised Ma Du the most was that Lao Zhu also had movement on his side, and a holy decree was sent to the academy, re-awarding Ma Du as the founder of the country, the assistant to the people, the minister of honesty and the text, the doctor of Ronglu, the scholar of Zuochunfang University of Zhan Shifu, and the national pillar.

As for the title or that title, he has become a veritable marquis, Ma Du did not have the slightest joy, but a cold sweat broke out on his back, Lao Zhu was really suspicious of him for a small group before. The nondescript reward before may not be a malicious joke, maybe a kind of well-intentioned beating.

The entrance exams ended quickly and were completed with extremely strict standards under the supervision of Zhu Sheng and Luo Furen. The content of the exam is not the eight strands that later generations are familiar with, but the ten paragraphs of the Song and Yuan dynasties, which are mainly based on scriptures and meanings. Listening to Zhu Sheng say that the imperial examination that Daming was planning was also in accordance with this charter, it seems that the old Zhu of the black pot of these eight shares was a little wronged.

Qi De did Ma Du a great favor, and Ma Du personally agreed to let him enter the academy to study, thinking of giving him a back door. Who knew that this young man looked mediocre, but he was a blockbuster. His test paper was listed as first-class by Zhu Sheng, and he also circulated it to his old friends.

Luo Furen took it in his hand and looked at it again and nodded, "It is indeed a material that can be made, if you have to rank it, the old man thinks it should be ranked first." ”

Ma Du said proudly: "That's natural, thanks to Benhou's discernment, this person was personally recruited by me." ”

"You can also see pearls? It's weird. ”

A voice suddenly sounded behind him, and everyone turned around, only to see Lao Zhu standing behind, dressed as a Confucian student, who didn't match his big black face at all, and felt a little nondescript.

I don't know if Lao Zhu has ever learned the kung fu of light power and water floating, sometimes he walks without sound, and suddenly appears behind others inexplicably, and Ma Du scared him several times.

"See the emperor!" Everyone saw that it was Lao Zhu who hurriedly saluted, and only Yuan Jiuli's knees knelt very unhappily. For such respectful people, Lao Zhu always smiled fondly and said: "It's not in the court, you don't have to be so formal, this gentleman." Xuanzhong, you don't want to help people up quickly. ”

Ma Du walked over and saw Yuan Jiuli's eyes straight, his face flushed, and he muttered softly, "The emperor called me sir, the emperor called me sir......" is really unproductive, more than Fan Jin Fan Jin, fortunately he didn't like phlegm upwell, otherwise Ma Du would inevitably give him a few slaps.

Lao Zhu smiled: "Mr. Yunsheng has discovered any talents?" ”

"I'm still young, and I can't be a pillar of talent, but it's a piece of jade, and if you carve it carefully, you can use it." Zhu Sheng said and handed over the test paper in his hand.

Lao Zhu read it carefully, and then smiled: "Oh, I'm only fifteen years old, and being able to write such an article is already outstanding, Lishui Qide, Qide, hehe...... It's not a small tone, I'll change his name. ”

Ma Du rolled his eyes when he heard it, he can really do whatever he wants when he becomes an emperor, the name taken by his father and mother is rare for you to change, who gave you the power to accept the word "virtue" from others, it is very good to say that the five elements will lack virtue in the future.

Lao Zhu didn't care, and erased the German character with a stroke of the pen, and added the word "Thai" next to it.

Qi Tai? This name is so familiar, Ma Du suddenly glared, "I'll rub!" ”
