The heat brought about by the "abolitionist movement" was very timid, and it was picked up by the old man of the second generation

In the tea wine shops outside, people are talking about news related to the material.

As mentioned above, there is an argument about which place to enter the third round with the most veterans.

For example, a wild student said that he wanted to enter a school and so on.

Until the last time

Several pergolas were built in the Yanai of Chang'an County

Outside the Gu Ya, the native soldiers of the forbidden army pulled up a cordon side by side

At the same time, there were cavalry patrolling the outside.

In the entire old field, it was supervised by the Jingzhao Yin Yamen, to which Zhang Tang belonged

Because I had the experience of lifting power last time

Because he knew the status of the imperial examination in the emperor's small middle school, Zhang Tang did not hesitate to dream and personally inspected the examination rooms

Seeing Zhang Tang come to inspect the door, a cadre of officials immediately brought people to meet him.

"Back to Mingzun, everything is fine." An official bowed his head and reported, "And found out the cheater of the Shimen."

The benefits brought by the middle lift are simply too great.

It's not enough to have cheaters

"What are you going to do with it?" Zhang Tang's face sank slightly.

The first two rounds of the old test will not be too difficult.

As soon as the county prepares the cultural arithmetic ability of the passing line, you can pass the test.

On this level of the topic, all the disadvantages?

How unconfident are those guys?

But Zhang Tang also knew that although the topics of the old imperial examination were simple, the scope of the examination was too wide.

The classics of the Cong Getai school, all the way to the nine chapters of arithmetic and criminal law, are all-encompassing

It's all common sense, though

However, many people just lack common sense

The consequence of Confucian Taixing education is that a large number of so-called celebrities have been placed who emphasize morality but not ability.

Especially the story of the old man of the Shi family back then

It is easy to give people in the world a serious illusion.

It seems that as long as you have a high level of morality, you don't need ability, and you can live in the three dukes!

So many people began to learn and model this famous giant

In the knot, Liu Che is not like his grandfather's acting skills integrated into life

He can't tolerate such a reckless person jumping to a high position

Therefore, these people who have tricks are broken in the face of reality

Some people turn back when they are hit, but many more people turn back when they hit their heads against the south wall.

Not only do these guys not want to turn back, but they also bring up a section of the "gentleman and villain debate".

They think that those officials who can do things are swords and pens, and they are villains

Mianzi is an elegant gentleman

The sword and pen officials are lowly and indecent.

I

A gentleman is a gentleman of high character

The reason why the gentlemen lost to the Wei Bi officials was not because of their lack of ability

It's because the gentlemen's morality is too high, and they can't fight those shameless villains.

This kind of strange logic and strange brain circuits are still very marketable in today's Confucian sects.

Not only is it popular in the Guliang School, but even many people in the Ram School agree with it, and they think that there is no way, and they can't fight the swords and pens of the Legalists

You've got to find a piece of cloth for yourself, right?

And for example, ten sons and ten percent of today's sons are from Confucianism

In this exam, I caught a few raccoon dogs with cheat sheets.

It's still because the question is too simple, and the level of the preacher selected is too low

field

And there is no clear provision in the former Han law on what punishment should be done, so Gongyi just persuaded him, and a few of those dancers are not small

They don't offend people too much without a solid basis for it.

Zhang Tang nodded, and just when everyone thought that this matter was over, he added another sentence

"Find out their names and places of origin, and keep them on record.

This is the work of sinning people

Seeing the gloomy eyes of their own officials, they had to act according to their words.

When he was a small official, he was known for his ruthlessness with an iron face

At this time, he was valued by the emperor, and as soon as he soared into the sky, his eyes naturally became even more intolerant of sand

"You need to increase the intensity of inspections to reduce the occurrence of rectification as much as possible."

After Zhang Tang finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Xiaozhong couldn't help but start thinking about the old and coming back to the question.

It seems that with the regularization and normalization of the imperial examination, it has become an urgent matter to formulate a special law. It seems that with the regularization and normalization of the imperial examination, it has become an urgent matter to formulate a special law. As a lover of the Legalists, there is nothing more pleasing to the Worm Palace A than to see the words in the law with more rules and regulations

Liu Che took the list of imperial examinations in his hand, and there was an interesting look in his eyes

After discussing the screening of the West Wheel.

More than 2,000 students entered the third round of the imperial examination.

463 is more than but already quite shocking

It is important to know that the students who participate in the imperial examination are only in their early teens

As much as more than 20% pass rate, which is unimaginable in later dynasties

This is also something that cannot be helped.

Some people may not believe it

Since the founding of the Taihan Dynasty, the number of officials in the court has always been unsaturated.

Eh, he has always been trapped with several generations of Han family kings.

In the case of the various shortcomings exposed by the probation system, and the performance of the old students of the previous session was good

The government and the opposition unanimously hope to expand the number of candidates admitted.

In the end, the imperial examination was lowered under Liu Che's signal.

Of course, this does not mean that the gold content of the imperial examination will be reduced.

Theoretically speaking, passing the second round of the old test will have the qualifications to be an official

"Scarcity is precious, I hope you can understand my painstaking work."

The corners of Liu Che's lips suddenly showed a wicked smile

I'm afraid that many people will be jealous and suspicious. The sun rises in the east

Awakened the silent city.

As usual.

Zhao Laosan took a few of his officials to open the closed gate of Chang'an

Then the peasants and merchants, who had been waiting at the gate of the city, lined up and entered the city

Standing on the city tower, Zhao Laosan looked at this lively scene and couldn't help but feel haggard

"Since the beginning of the imperial examination, Chang'an has changed

The front is more hot-set

Both left and right smiled and nodded, "No, since the beginning of the imperial examination, the people outside Chang'an City can be regarded as a good time."

"They just sell their home-grown vegetables, I'm afraid they also make a lot of L."

Because the imperial examination attracted tens of thousands of people to gather in Chang'an City

The prices of Chang'an City immediately rose in response.

Fortunately, Dasi Nong got the emperor's orders, and he had already transported a large amount of grain, cloth and other commodities to Chang'an

There has been no skyrocketing prices

But even so, there were suddenly tens of thousands of more people in Chang'an City

And it is also a middle-class population with fairly strong purchasing power.

This made the merchants and households in Chang'an City and the people in the city make a lot of money

Residents in the city make a lot of money just by renting out their houses and helping with laundry.

If you have some strength, take the opportunity to do some more business, and you will earn a year's income.

And the peasants outside the territory did not suffer any losses.

Originally, all kinds of vegetables that they had grown themselves and used as their bellies were now all available for sale

Moreover, the price is higher than the ticket meter

Even the most convenient dish can now be sold for dozens of dollars a stone.

The people who rushed at home couldn't stop laughing.

In the past, I could sell eggs and duck eggs for one or two dollars, but now I can sell them for four or five dollars

If you're lucky, you can hunt wild boars in the mountains

Thousands of dollars that can be exchanged in one fell swoop from the city

Zhao Laosan listened to the discussions of the officials on the left and right, and his face was as usual.

But on the side of the heart, he knew that this kind of artificially created market would not last long

Because the imperial examination is about to be released.

By then, most of the students will have to return to their hometowns.

Chang'an City, it's not easy.

Even a middle-class family can't support the expenses of a literati living in Chang'an for a long time

He himself stepped forward with a strap

He replied to those people: "I am a subordinate of Jing Bing Yin Yamen, why do you bring so much meat to City A?"

The voice of a lang came from the city gate near and far, but it was Zhang Tuo, a tyrant in the township, with a few children and nephews

Zhao Laosan frowned slightly.

He doesn't have a good impression of Gan Zhang Tuo, but he doesn't have a bad feeling either.

In his eyes, this country bully belongs to the kind of brazen but useful country owner.

For the bureaucrats of the Legalists.

They didn't care about the moral cultivation of the landlords and magnates under their rule

Anyway, there are a few good characters, and bad characters are also a knife.

Why is it so clear?

So Zhao Laosan also wrinkled his stomach, and stepped forward

"What is the matter with Zhang Gong bringing so much meat to the city?"

"Of course I'm here to sell." Zhang Tuo rubbed his hands and smiled, "Didn't the villain hear that the imperial examination was about to be announced?" Just bring it

The villagers slaughtered their own breeds and came to Chang'an City to provide the future new lords of the Ming Gong to celebrate their loneliness. ”

As a landlord and squire who has been wandering around Chang'an for a long time, Zhang Tuo's sense is certainly not an ordinary spirit

After hearing that the imperial examination was about Kunsheng, he immediately reacted to the request

Those who have won the prize will surely set up wine in the city to celebrate

On the contrary, most of the ten sons who are frustrated in the field will also spend money to get drunk.

In any case, this wine feast is indispensable for fish and meat!

At this time, if you come to Chang'an City to sell the bird, you will definitely be able to make money.

He was also a man of courage and figured it out

Immediately took people to buy all kinds of raw sheep, chickens and ducks around Chang'an

And then send it today, it's too profitable

Zhao Yansan listened to the other party's explanation, and was noncommittal, but said coldly

"So that Gong Zhang knows that His Majesty has made an order."

"Since the beginning of this autumn and the month of Tuyue, it is forbidden to slaughter live horses without reason in Guanzhong."

"All killings of cattle and horses must be approved by the county government before they can be carried out, and the county prohibits the consumption of raw meat

"In the future, Zhang Gong can't kill cattle like this for no reason, otherwise, the official will have to blame ⊥"

Zhang Tuo was stunned when he heard it

Don't kill cows and horses, don't even eat beef?

His Majesty the Emperor is too wide (Wang Qian)

You know, Han people eat beef, this is a tradition.

Especially the rangers, when they are tired of playing, they gather around the fire plate, warm a pot of wine and cut two plates of beef, which has always been their favorite

Thing.

Of course, he dared to think of one in his heart.

I didn't dare to show it at all

Among the people, the deeds of His Majesty the Emperor have long been deified.

If he dares to show his dissatisfaction, he doesn't need the government to come forward.

The neighborhoods in the surrounding countryside alone could let him know how humble Han Epitek really was

Come to think of it, it doesn't have much to do with him.

Zhang Tuo just smiled and arched his hand, "The grass people know." Zhang Tangou blew the ink on the cloth on the table, and then handed it to the summer official, and said, "The matter is like a bag?" ”

"The news has been announced, and it's ......" The official thought for a while and said to Zhang Tangjian, "This tea and raw meat are directly available."

Earning heads? ”

This is another new system implemented since the monopoly of salt, iron and wine by the imperial court officials

Specifically, Zhang Tang is not clear.

But he has one merit.

As long as it is a task assigned by His Majesty the Emperor, he will complete it without any discount

In today's Han Dynasty, because of the backwardness of tea-making technology and tea-drinking culture

Therefore, the profits of the tea trade have not yet been highlighted.

But Liu Che knew that in the Northern Song Dynasty in history, how much benefit did the tea official camp bring to the Northern Song Dynasty?

That's a net income of millions of dollars a year!

Even better, tea is now a monopoly resource that is unique to China, just like silk.

But if you want to develop, are you afraid that you won't have any money to make?

As for the official sale of beef?

In fact, it is a signal from the imperial court.

The new cattle farming technique was promoted, and soon the world would ban slaughter and farming.

But raw meat is extremely delicious, and it has the nutrients of Guifu2.

The Han people can have the physical fitness they have now

Eating raw meat is inextricably linked

Therefore, it is imperative to divide the types of crops into cultivated and meat.

Once cattle are included in the strategic resources under control, it is forbidden to use them privately

Then raw meat will become a monopoly resource and a sharp weapon in the hands of the imperial court to make money

Moreover, you can play a lot of new tricks.

For example, if the ploughing cattle in the hands of farmers are sold, they can only be sold to Taisi Nong.

As the only buyer, Dasi Nong can naturally lower the price

Then, at the same time, Dasi Nong is the only beef seller on the market, so the price of raw meat can be increased

This subtracts and adds, and the profit will naturally come out

In addition, it is only profitable to sell raw meat, and Taisi Nong will be too strong to develop raw meat farming.

In terms of the scale of the northern pastures controlled by the Han family, raise millions of raw sheep and then work

In this way, it is possible that in the future, the profits from animal husbandry in the northern border will be filled by investment in agriculture and development

Resulting deficits

Expanding territory will no longer be a burden, but will become a lucrative business.

As long as the expansion of the territory can bring benefits and make money, the people will support the war fish.

This creates a virtuous circle.

Then light up the technology tree of the wool textile industry and launch a wool textile industry.

It turns the grassland into a treasure land flowing with honey and sugar.

The people will automatically migrate to these places

In this way, it is natural that there will be long-term peace and stability

This is really a preparation for the future grassland strategy.

As usual, Dongfang Shuo took the book and sat in the courtyard

I was discussing with a few young people who lived here

If you don't want it, today's discussion of air radon is a little nervous and uneasy, and everyone's thoughts are no longer in the books

I wonder if I'll be on the list? ”

A young man of ten or eight years old, he can't help but pull it in the end

If I can get what I want, I will do everything I can to repay the king

"It's ...... talk," the others nodded their heads

It has only been a few years since the scholars who were born in the imperial examination, and now the person with the highest status has become the Thousand Stone Order

As for the 800 stones, there were as many as 100 officials with 600 stones

All these things are told to everyone

The imperial examination, this is an unprecedented road to the clouds.

It is precisely because of this that everyone is nervous

More than 2,000 candidates passed the second round, and according to rumors, fewer than 200 were admitted

Acceptance rate of 1 in 1 class

How fierce is the competition?

It is precisely because of this that the list is about to be announced

No one can sink anymore

Even if it is such as Dongfang Shuo and Sang Hongyang, they are free and easy

At this time, it is also the heart walking

Although he is known for his outstanding Brunei, he is quite strategic.

But now there is not much certainty.

This is a gathering of the world's top literati students.

Many of them were defeated last time and are now making a comeback after years of hard work behind closed doors

These people have the experience of the previous time, and they are really the enemy of everyone

"Against the grain, there are still some virtuous brothers who are always victorious, so you don't have to be as anxious as me.

Changsheng is the expression of the disease, which is made by the emperor himself

From this act alone, we can see what kind of status this person has in the emperor's small eyes.

Compared to them, they are always worried about whether they will fall off the list

Huo Qu's future is destined to be extremely brilliant

How is this not enviable

has a similar identity to Huo Quzhi, as well as Yizong.

It's just that the other party is outside, so there is rarely a grasp of it

Don't please, this also shows the current situation of Taixue from the side.

That is the light and martial arts

People with upright backgrounds have chosen to go to the Taixue Martial Arts Academy.

The Academy of Letters, that is the leftover that was picked by others

It is precisely for this reason that the enclosure of the Taixue Academy of Literature is far stronger than that of the little pig's time

"Okay, Brother Chang Sheng's fame can be obtained immediately, and it is not the same way as us."

Dongfang Shuo calmed everyone a few words.

But there was a frenzied gaze in his eyes.

In the future, if you can be named on the gold list, your career will be smooth, and you may have to go to the field.

In Taihan, non-military merits and relatives are not allowed to be marquis.

This is the iron law left by Gaozu

No ambitious literati would refuse to enlist in the army⊥ or

This is Taihan. The next day, dawn.

"Let's put it on the list!"

With an excited voice, the entire Chang'an sleep room boiled

Before Lubu, thousands of candidates had already gathered.

One by one, Xia Yang Sima Qian.

"Bangyan is one by one

"Tanhua one by one, the plain Dongfang Shuo."

Seeing that the list was announced, I was very happy and worried.

The old and middle-aged people celebrated with strong crowns and cheered with joy

Their parents were even more exaggerated, and immediately called their friends and prepared a banquet to celebrate.

And the losers are hesitant and sighing, and they are self-pitying.

"I'm hit" Dongfang Shuo clenched his head, and the blood in his heart suddenly flowed to his head. Sima Qian's family has a strong academic background and is stable.

Despite this, he couldn't help but show a touch of joy on his face

The other young people around him all lowered their heads and were depressed.

"We lost the election." A young Wen Shi bit his lip, and the frustration in his eyes suddenly flowed uncontrollably

Since the Warring States Period, with the bankruptcy of the monopoly of power by the old princes and nobles, the rise of the Tufu class has been a mixture of Confucianism, Huang and Laomo.

And no matter which school of tuzi they are, they all dream of being able to assist a master and send Jun Yao Shun. This formed a set of values peculiar to the scholarly class

And Liu Xi, who has already proved himself through various deeds, is undoubtedly the master of everyone's hearts. Now the hope is dashed, the breath of depression and depression,

Near-chosen one.

In many people's small lives, this failure is a terrible disaster like the sky has fallen

Especially when they learned that the number of admitted students was as high as more than 360 people, the depression in their hearts was even stronger.

More than 36 scholars admitted?

Compared with the previous year, the number of admissions has doubled

It hurts them a lot, it hurts.

For the literati, what should they do if their hearts are hurt?

The answer, of course, is to drink and be sorrowful

However, when these people rushed to the liquor store

It was found that in the midst of the sprinkling, there were already people who had already taken the lead

Dozens of them didn't even get through the second imperial examination.

The literati who have been eating and living here are drunk on the floor of the wine shop.

Compared to the losers in the third round.

The resentment of these people is almost about to be broken

"The imperial examination is unfair, how talented we are, we didn't win, there must be something greasy in this!"

Someone shouted as he poured a flask into his mouth

Not far away, a man dressed as a villain looked embarrassed at his young master, and comforted, "Why should the young master be angry, when you go home, ask the old master to dredge up the relationship, and you should be able to get an errand" What do you know? ”

The drunken scholar snorted a few times, and drank with a wine shell

The imperial examination system is the right path for officialdom, and it is comparable to those who enter the officialdom based on their relationships

On the pavilion technique of the wine shop, there are vague people whispering indistinctly

"The sad world is a long song, sighing that the son is not met, and the sorrow is not clear

Quack

The man rolled down the attic with a copper flask, his head touching the floor

Two or three attendants immediately hurried down and shouted, "Young master, young master, let's go home." ”

A few unsuccessful literati who just walked into this wine shop, seeing such a large amount of scenes, couldn't help but look at each other a little bit This towel is too exaggerated, right?

Of course, not all drunks are in the liquor store.

In the cubicle of the liquor store, there was a faint sound of discussion

Gentlemen, this time the imperial court took the soil, and Zhang Duling, who presided over the imperial examination, used the public weapon for private use, and carried the pressure of dissidents, and his heart could be punished

Someone said loudly, "You can know that in this imperial examination, those who have won more than Tucheng are all from the ram scholars!" ”

"Even if there are three percent left, it is still a Legalist, and Huang Laoxue is the majority1"

"My generation of grain gentlemen, there are twelve people who can take it!"

"Zuo Chuan Zhujun, and no one has ever won p

Ask for flowers

"If there is no favoritism and irregularity, no pushing dissidents, who will believe it?

The man's words immediately sparked anger.

The crowd in the compartment was furious and boiling.

"It's hateful!" Someone said, "I mistook that Zhang Duling, and I thought that he, as a famous Legalist, should be able to act impartially."

I thought that he was also a sycophant! ”

Others chimed in

The people who had just entered the liquor store were also outraged by this loud voice and decryption

Anger suddenly rose in everyone's hearts

Good for you, Zhang Duling!

Actually a public weapon

It turns out that I am still strange that I can't get such a high talent

So you're cracking down on dissidents

Is this the case?

It must be so

They did not dare to blame the emperor, so they naturally put their hats on the person who presided over the imperial examination

Join and change to a neutral and impartial person to preside, with the talents and learning of everyone's compatriots, can there still be those who are defeated? Impossible

With that, the young men involuntarily approached the cubicle and walked in.

When they entered the room, everyone was stunned to find out.

In this small cubicle, the sound is full,

People, overcrowded

There are several of them that we still know.

They are all the losers of this imperial examination

As a result, a kind of hatred and hatred gradually grew.

"Our gentlemen will not be able to endure such humiliation↓"

"Go and beat the heavenly drum, sue the emperor, and ask His Majesty the Emperor to avenge us!"

"Go together, go together

Everyone drank a few glasses of wine, and after the companions, they wanted to feel a big news as soon as their heads were hot, and the most important thing was that after the last "abolition movement".

Some sharp-minded people are already aware of the role of public opinion

If they can make a big deal out of it, the court will most likely make some concessions
