After a short discussion, Fan Hongji left the Wang family's mansion.

The servants of the two families were sent out one after another, and in less than half an hour, the entire clansmen in the imperial city were gathered and busy.

For example, the Wang family, more than 300 literate clansmen, all gathered in the family chamber, after some deliberation and discussion, the two families acted at the same time, led a mighty procession, entered the outer court, and registered in the newly established Ministry of Education.

A huge courtyard of the department was crowded to the point where it was crowded, and as far as the eye could see, the black pressure was full of readers, crowded with people, and it was more lively than rushing to the market.

Where there are many people, there is communication, the circle of the upper class aristocracy is very small, you can find a few acquaintances at a glance, and after waiting, you can chat in groups to pass the time, as for the content of the chat, it is nothing more than what interesting things have happened in the circle of fox friends and dog friends recently, what rare baby has been newly obtained, who has won a gambling game, or what new methods of training women have been studied.

"Yo, a few brothers of the Wang family, you came quite early!" A man dressed as a boy greets a few acquaintances.

"But no, our family master can say that he must not be behind your Fan family! Hahaha, please don't be surprised by Brother Fan! "The brothers of the Wang family have given up one after another, and the Fan and Wang families have always been good friends, so the children of the family also have a lot of intersections, and they often make some jokes.

The man of the Fan family pretended to be displeased, and said with a smile: "How can you not be surprised?" Unless you have a treat tonight, let's go to the workshop for a night and have a good time! ”

Hearing this, several Wang family men all looked embarrassed, and one of them said, "Didn't Brother Fan go there a few days ago?" It's still the second lady of the Tian family who is playing, and she has been screaming and scarred all night, and she is going to go again now? ”

"You don't understand." The man of the Fan family waved his hand: "After registering today, I will go to the countryside to teach in two days, you also know that my brother has always admired the second miss of the Tian family, but he has been asking for it, and now that the Tian family has collapsed, he finally has a chance to have a good time, and he came up with a few new tricks last night...... It will take at least a month or two to go to the countryside, and you know, can a beautiful woman stay in that kind of place? I'm afraid that the next time I come back, Miss Tian Er will no longer look like a man, which makes people uninterested. ”

Several Wang family men thought so, and nodded one after another, but at the same time, they were also embarrassed: "Brother Fan doesn't know, we have to pack our luggage when we go back, and set off for the countryside immediately, this is the rule of the head of the family, we can't disobey it." ”

"And such a rule?" The man of the Fan family frowned and said, "I came home late and didn't catch up with the family proceedings, is there any way to do it?" ”

Several Wang family men were very surprised, glanced at each other, and said, "Brother Fan doesn't know? The Ministry of Education stipulates that there can only be one teacher in each village, on a first-come, first-served basis, if you go late, there are only some poor ravines and ravines left, not to mention suffering, there are not many villagers, that is a big disadvantage! ”

"I see." The man of the Fan family suddenly realized, and hurriedly surrendered his hand: "Thanks to the information of several brothers, I almost delayed my career!" In this case, Brother Wei will not go to the Jiaofang Division tonight, and will go back to clean up and grab a good village earlier. ”

"Then I'll wait for my brother to wish in advance! By the way, I also want to remind Brother Fan, don't put too high a shelf in the countryside, don't bully women or anything, it is said that every civilian exam, there will be a secret score, if you are not satisfied, even if they pass the exam, it has nothing to do with it! ”

"Fuck it, is there any rule like this?" The man surnamed Fan's eyes widened, and he muttered: "No, then I have to bring some silver taels, and when the time comes, I will send some money to every literate villager and buy them some delicious food, don't block me!" ”

"Hahahaha! Then I wish Brother Fan a bright future! We'll see you later! ”

"There will be a date later!"

After a few people discussed, everyone lined up to register, for everyone, these idle talk is just some talk to pass the time, what is really related to the vital interests, or to register and make a book, to obtain the qualification to teach.

Because everyone knows that the officialdom of Cangguo is about to usher in a big shock, and the existing pattern is about to be broken, from the original cronyism to meritocracy.

All the scholars understand that this will be a new officialdom rule, compared to the extravagant gate valve life, being a teacher is hard, but it is a major way out to obtain high-ranking officials in the future, follow the direction of His Majesty the Emperor, in order to maintain not to fall behind, and live a life of superiority.

The Fan family, the Wang family, and the Chen family, combined, account for almost half of the power of the upper-class nobles of Cangguo, plus some small families, it can be said that the most important intellectual and cultural forces of Cangguo are gathered here.

The only thing that makes people feel uncomfortable is that none of them from the Shangguan family, as one of the four major gates, completely disappeared in the face of such a major event.

Soon, the news spread among the crowd and became the topic of everyone's conversation, and a few people took the news out of the court after registering.

The people who had been watching the excitement on the street outside the palace naturally got the news and spread it to the whole city.

Originally, the common people hated and feared the gate valves, and finally these gate valves did a good thing under His Majesty's edict, but the Shangguan family, as one of the four major gate valves, did not participate at all!

The streets and alleys are full of people talking about this matter, although they don't dare to poke the backbone behind the back of Shangguan's house, but there are a lot of gossip and ugly words behind their backs.

In the outer court, in a small attic of the Ministry of Education, there are two people standing at this time, one is Kong Shangxian, the newly appointed secretary of the Ministry of Education, and the other is Li Qing, who was the adjutant of the Ministry of Education when he was originally the minister of supervision, and is now the left servant of the Ministry of Education.

The two of them stood with their hands in their hands, their eyes focused on the crowded Ministry of Education, watching the readers coming in and out, silent.

This is the terrible thing about the gate valve, as long as the family decides, the family members will obey and respond, and the interests of the family are above the will of the state, such as the Shangguan family, which has not moved so far, because the head of the family does not support the edict, so the clansmen below are also united, and no one comes to register and make a record.

Even, Kong Shangxian had a momentary suspicion that if the four major lords wanted to confront the imperial power today, and the officials said that they were sick and dismissed, the country would immediately be paralyzed, and even if there were more troops, it would be useless.

Gate valve, when extinguished!
