"Nonsense, Mao Dashuai and Inspector Yuan are both patriotic people, how can they do such a thing that their relatives are bitter and their enemies are happy?"

Feng Lun waved his hand and motioned for Gao Zhong not to continue.

Gao Zhong also chose to keep his voice and did not continue, if he was a few years older and had his own strength, he would definitely help the Ming Dynasty turn things around, but now others are soft-spoken, and the imperial capital is too far away from the southwest, so he can only find his own way to slowly change the world step by step.

This meal was very difficult, Feng Lun had a tense face from beginning to end, so frightened that Zhang Fanyu didn't even dare to eat a few bites of the meal and ended hastily. Gao Zhong didn't care about this, and continued to eat heavily, not letting his stomach suffer.

After eating, Feng Lun let go of Gao Zhong and Zhang Fanyu and let them go.

"Go get pen and paper, I'm going to write a letter to the teacher."

After seeing Gao Zhonghe's Zhang Fanyu and the two leave, Feng Lun frowned and said to the guy next to him.

……

"Brother Gao seems to be worried about the future of Da Ming?"

After leaving the restaurant, Zhang Fanyu and Gao Zhong came to the Jialing River, walking and chatting while blowing the river breeze.

Chongqing has begun to get hot in June, and both of them are wearing thick children's clothes, so walking by the river is still a good choice.

Listening to Zhang Fanyu's words, Gao Zhong nodded: "Yes, now that the Ming Dynasty is worried about internal and external troubles, I don't know how much wind and rain it can suffer?" ”

"I don't think so, there are so many talented people in the Ming Dynasty, there are countless people like my uncle in the world, even if the building is about to fall, it is also a powerful way to be a king!"

Zhang Fanyu said what he thought in his heart.

Listening to Zhang Fanyu's words, Gao Zhong showed his own smile: "Yes, there are countless people like Master Zhang in the Ming Dynasty, and do you know that there are countless people like your Zhang family in the Ming Dynasty!" There are countless peasant children like me! Do you know what kind of disaster this can bring? ”

"What disaster?"

Zhang Fanyu looked at Gao Zhong and said.

"If there is civil strife, the peasant family will directly rush into the gate of your Zhang family, grab grain and kill people. In order to protect yourself, your Zhang family will definitely seek protection from the government, and if the government is powerless, you will throw yourself into another court for the sake of your family......"

Gao Zhong stopped and said in a tone of conversation.

"This, you mean that if it is under external troubles and internal worries, the wealthy families in the world will choose the strong to cling to?"

Zhang Fanyu looked at Gao Zhong with wide eyes: "However, the peasants are simple, they shouldn't rebel so easily, right?" ”

"I'm from a farming family, and I know the farming family better than you do. Although the peasants rank second among the farmers and industrialists, they are not as good as the scholars, but the merchants who are not as rich as the scholars, and they are poor all their lives, and there are few wealthy families, so the peasants' sense of resistance is the weakest and the strongest. If the peasant family loses their land and there is no farmer in the field, they will show their minions and begin to expose their true nature! ”

Gao Zhong found a stone and sat down, and then motioned to Zhang Fanyu to do the same.

"How can a peasant be like this, brother, are you too alarmist?"

Zhang Fanyu sat on the big stone by the river and looked at Gao Zhong, and said with a frown.

"No, have you forgotten that Cheng Sheng and Wu Guang swept the world with 'the prince will Xiangning have a kind of'? Although the peasants are ignorant, they are not stupid, and they know that there are only two ways to change their fate, one is to study and change their class. The other is to survive in war, how many of the founders of the imperial court in the past dynasties were born as scholars? And how many are peasant men? ”

Gao Zhong smiled, although the peasant family has a shallow understanding, they are the most practical people, they know how to do to maximize their own interests, anyway, they will never participate in things that are not good.

Listening to Gao Zhong's words, Zhang Fanyu fell silent, because he really didn't know how to refute it.

Indeed, no matter what major events happen in history, the first to rise up is the peasant family, who rise up, mobilize the world, and sweep all directions......

"So, but is there a way to let the peasant family settle down?"

Zhang Fanyu looked at Gao Zhong curiously and asked.

"In fact, the method is very simple, and that is to let the farmers see hope. Do you know why Great Qin began to become powerful after the Shang Dynasty reform? ”

Gao Zhong said to Zhang Fanyu.

"Shang Ying's Transformation?"

Why did it come to Xianqin again, Zhang Fanyu was a little puzzled.

"That's right. Because the Qin State rewards farming, even if you farm the fields, you can also get military merits, and if you exchange enough military merits, then you will have the corresponding titles and benefits. So that the peasant family at the bottom sees hope, and the people at the bottom of a country have hope, and the people at the top know stability, then the country will not develop in a bad direction, but in the direction of growth! ”

Gao Zhong explained.

"There is hope for the people at the bottom, and there is stability for the people at the top?"

Now this set of statements is still a bit too radical in front of Zhang Fanyu, after all, this has already involved the birth of a modern country. So now he still doesn't understand it, although it sounds a little reasonable.

The two continued to talk for a few more words, and then quickly returned to the hotel. In the following days, Gao Zhong and Zhang Fanyu, like other children, stayed quietly in the hotel, reading every day, and preparing for the arrival of the college exam.

During this period, Feng Lun also invited Gao Zhong several times, but each time the two broke up unhappily, and neither could convince the other, although Feng Lun didn't know where to get a lot of new information and wanted to share it with Gao Zhong, but Gao Zhong still insisted on his own judgment.

The days passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was the day of the hospital exam.

The Chongqing Prefecture Examination is arranged in a special examination room, which is much larger than the Fuzhou Prefecture Examination, and there are special officers and soldiers guarding it.

During the college examination, Gao Zhong saw the appearance of the Sichuan scientific examination mansion, and there were hundreds of people standing densely outside the examination room, and the number obtained from Zhang Fanyu was that there were more than 300 people participating in the college examination this year.

According to the standard of one out of 50 in previous years, six people in Chongqing can become students this year, of course, these are not counted.

As with the rules of the prefectural exam, a large group of candidates stood neatly outside the exam room, waiting for the exam to begin. Compared with the college examination, the review standards of the government examination have become more stringent, and even the candidates are required to strip for inspection.

Obviously, although the southwest is weaker in this aspect of the imperial examination, they still attach great importance to its fairness.

"The college exam has begun, and the candidates have begun to enter the venue!"

When the hour came, with the shout of the master, the long line finally began to march towards the gate of the scientific expedition.
