Chapter 167: The Gospel of Poor Students
PS: Work hard to code words! Ask for tickets~~~
As the first meter of sunlight in the morning poured into the streets of Xiangyang City, the whole street gradually became noisy, with peddlers and pawns, and busy traffic, a peaceful scene.
A team of sergeants was transferred out of the governor's mansion, and the leading general ordered: "You two go to the north of the city!" You two go to the south of the city! You two go to the west of the city! Dog, let's go to the east of the city! ”
The sergeants clenched their fists in response, and then dispersed in all directions.
Signboard in the east of the city.
The leading general posted the "Order of the Virtuous" and shouted: "Folks! Come and get together, get together! The state pastor loves talents, decided to hold a grand national examination in early June, all talented scholars, regardless of the background, regardless of the position can participate, if you are interested, you can go to the division to register, overdue will not wait! ”
At this moment, the notice office has been surrounded by water, and it is difficult for ordinary people to read and break words, so the leading general dictates the original text once so that the news can be transmitted faster.
There was a young man in a coarse cloth cross-cardigan in the crowd, and his thin body was squeezed in the crowd, squinting a pair of small eyes to take a look at it, and silently recited:
"Xi Yizhi and Fu said that they were sluts; Guan Zhong and Huan Gong thieves are also used for prosperity. Xiao He, Cao Shen, and county officials; Han Xin and Chen Ping bear the name of insult, have the shame of laughing, and can achieve the royal industry, and the reputation is recorded. Wu Qi was greedy, killed his wife and was confident, scattered gold to seek officials, and his mother died and did not return, but in Wei, the Qin people did not dare to go east, and in Chu, the three Jin did not dare to seek south.
Today, there are no virtuous people in the people, and the courage to disregard, the enemy fights, if the civil and vulgar officials, high talent and heterogeneity, or can be guarded; In the name of dishonor. Seeing the act of laughter, or being unkind and unfilial and having the art of governing the country and using soldiers: what they know, do not leave anything behind. ”
The more the person read back, the more excited he became, so that his already small eyes were about to be unable to open at this time, and he clapped his high-fives. He stamped his foot and shouted, "That's great!" ”
The leading general laughed: "This brother! It's a good time for you to catch up, our state pastor, that's quite a love talent, this time the national examination ceremony, you must seize the opportunity! ”
The thin man nodded, and an unconcealable smile appeared on his face: "I'll go back and tell my friends and let them join in!" With that, he turned around and squeezed out.
Standing beside him was a well-dressed young man. Looking at the lean man who hurriedly squeezed out of the crowd, he snorted lightly, shook his hand and stared at this "Virtuous Order", with a look of nonchalance: "The love of the state pastor is really admirable, but what can that poor student have?" Think you can go to high school after reading a few books? What a joke. ”
The other person who accompanied him was also well-dressed, and sighed and said: "Brother Tai is rich in five cars, presumably this national examination must be handy." ”
"That's nature!"
"But I heard that the chief examiner of this national examination is Mr. Shui Jing, who is a bookworm. If you want to win the favor of this person, you must work hard. Fortunately, there is some time before this national examination, so we can prepare early! ”
"What the virtuous brother said is very true, go! Let's go back and ask Mr. and hurry up to review. ”
For a period of time after the announcement of the list of virtuous people in Xiangyang City, the topic of the national examination has become a necessary topic for almost every Xiangyang people to talk about after dinner, and those college chairs that originally taught and solved doubts have become fragrant buns. The students were eager to spend 12 hours a day around the lecture.
Sima Hui Caolu outside Xiangyang City, a deserted paradise on weekdays, at this time there is also an endless stream of visitors in front of the door, whether it is a gift or a consultation. In short, you can line up from the mountainside all the way to the bottom of the mountain.
I'm afraid this is the first time in Sima Hui's life!
After only one day, Sima Hui couldn't bear the soft grinding and hard bubbles of everyone, and in desperation, he had to order the scholar Ah Fu to go to Xiangyang City to seek refuge from Liu Bei.
Liu Bei also hoped that Sima Hui could avoid suspicion before the exam, so he ordered Chen Zhi to lead a team of people to take Sima Hui to live in the governor's mansion, which was a cheap discount for Liu Bei's son.
Liu Fang has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, but the matter of this article is only Tian Feng, Pang Tong and others who take the time to teach one or two, and they can't follow the rules.
Nowadays, Jingxiang and Jiangdong are all over the place, and the style of study is prevalent, if you talk about the grandeur of this scale, it is better than the Yingchuan Academy!
Mi Zhu also received Liu Bei's flying pigeon biography, he successively ordered people to memorize the content of the "Virtuous Order", in Yingchuan, Qingzhou Confucius's hometown, Jizhou Yecheng and other places in the major restaurants, post houses and other densely populated places to publicize Uncle Liu's virtuous decree, between the words more reflected the meaning of the yearning.
Since then, Liu Bei is not only the nominal Uncle Liu Huang, but also a lord who is brilliant and loves talents, and even many students have to go south to Xiangyang to catch the exam.
This scene is exactly the same as the Ming and Qing dynasties when they entered Beijing to catch the exam, I have to say that Liu Bei has created a miracle, this will be an era of national reading!
Due to the prevalence of reading, the demand for books has increased significantly, and Liu Bei specially ordered Huang Yueying to prepare hundreds of thousands of books for sale, which seems to be a large number, but it is far from enough for the entire Jingxiang and Jiangdong.
The cost of paper is very high, so books are very expensive, paper books can only be affordable by some children of the family, and poor students can only copy books by hand, but due to the emergence of books, bamboo slips are much cheaper.
Xiangyang, the state pastoral house.
"Guan Guan Ju Dove, in the River Island, My Fair Lady, Gentleman!"
The sound of Liu Fang reciting poems aloud came from the study, and Liu Bei outside the door stopped in front of the window, with a smile on his face, quietly staring at this picture.
Yesterday just got the report, only five days, Xiangyang alone has more than 2,000 students signed up for the local examination, while the number of people in other places such as Fancheng, Xinye, and other places has not yet been counted, and some department personnel estimate that the number of students should reach 5,000 before the registration is over.
Sima Hui was holding a book, looked up and happened to see Liu Bei outside the window, and hurriedly bowed: "I don't know if the state shepherd is coming, I miss the welcome, I hope to beg for forgiveness." ”
"Father!"
In the study, Liu Fang couldn't help but glance back and jumped up excitedly, but was immediately suppressed by Sima Hui's stern eyes, and had to salute obediently: "Father." ”
Liu Bei returned the salute and smiled: "Where, where, I bothered Mr." ”
Sima Hui said softly: "I don't know what happened when the adults came this time?" ”
"Without him! It's just that Kong Ming's father-in-law sent two more books, I think Mr. is a book lover, so I sent Mr. to read it first, but I didn't want to disturb Mr. ”
"Oh?" Sima Hui became interested, and hurriedly walked out of the study: "Dare to ask what book it is?" ”
"It's Cai everyone's "You Chun", "Autumn Thoughts" and Dongfang Shuo's "Guest Difficulty", but I don't know if Mr. likes it or not"
Sima Huilian snatched the book from Liu Bei's hand and said happily: "I like it!" Like! ”
"If you like it! If you like it, you can return it! Liu Bei smiled bitterly, shrugged his shoulders towards Liu Fang in the room, and said, "Mr. is busy with academic affairs, so I won't disturb you, so I will leave." (To be continued......)
