Chapter 244: Students

"It's amazing, Kaienko!" Wujia, a Confucian scholar in Dongxi Village, heard the news that the Qingfeng Army was holding the imperial examination in the county seat, and ran into the house of his friend Hu Ming in the village. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Since the Han and Tang Dynasties, reading to Zhishi is the hope of the world's readers, and it is also the hope of the poor to change their fate.

Hu Mingzheng shook his head and endorsed the book, and when he heard this, he was overjoyed, dropped the book, and asked in disbelief: "Is this serious?" ”

"Seriously, on the fifth day of the first month of March this year, the generalissimo of the Qingfeng Army opened the imperial examination in Luzhou, regardless of the color people, Han people, monks, Taoists, and Confucians, they can participate, and 120 people will be admitted to the two grades!" Wu Jia said excitedly.

In the Yuan Dynasty, the imperial examination was like a convulsion, held irregularly, and the people of the color eye were on the right list, and they could be officials in the middle, and they were promoted quickly, and the Han people could only be on the left list, and they could only be candidates when they came out of the left list, and they didn't even have the opportunity to be officials.

Hu Ming thought that it was the imperial court that opened Enke, but he never thought that it was the imperial examination opened by the Qingfeng army, and said without cutting it: "Qingfeng army? Isn't that a rebel who rebelled against the imperial court? ”

Although Dongxi Village belongs to Yangzhou Zhi, it is in the northwest of Yangzhou City, which belongs to the scope of the Qingfeng Army's power.

"Brother Hu Mingtai don't say that, under the rule of the Qingfeng Army, the taxes are very light, the people live and work in peace and contentment, the Han people are equal to the Semu people, who is the chief examiner of your Dao Jinke? It is Lord Yu Que Yu, who is the leader of the Yuan Dynasty! Moreover, the generalissimo paid out of his own pocket to run free schools in various states and counties under his rule, and the generalissimo is a very good person! Wu Jia said excitedly.

Yu Que's name at the end of the Yuan Dynasty was very loud, in addition to his good official reputation and good learning, more importantly, he was not a Meng ancient, but a Xixia person, a Han Confucian scholar, and most of Yu Que was a model, and his reputation among Confucians was really loud.

Hu Ming listened to Wu Jia's encouraging words, this heart finally came alive, if he didn't take the exam, I am afraid that in the future, in the academy city, Hao Ren will win the world, and the imperial examination will be abolished, I don't want to give up this opportunity, go outside the road for a walk, even if he passes the exam, he will not go to Qingfeng Army to be an official, it can be regarded as proving that he has learned from the abdomen.

However, he looked at the predicament of the four walls of his family, and sighed: "Luzhou is far away, I'm afraid I can't make up the transportation expenses of Sichuan!" ”

"This generalissimo has long thought of it, and deliberately opened six sub-examination sites in Luzhou, Anqing, Yangzhou, Jiankang, Pingjiang, and Xuanzhou under his rule, and the Taishou of each place will take the main examination, and one hundred people will be taken from each place. Wujia Road.

"Brother Wujia, let's pack our bags, set off overnight, and go to Yangzhou to find a pavilion to live in first, so that we can review our homework!" Wu Jia said excitedly.

Not a day, two Confucian scholars arrived in Yangzhou, looking for a museum to stay, and not a day, the exam date arrived, Yangzhou Taishou personally paid Youde to take the exam, five days later, Yangzhou Taishou posted the list text, two Confucian scholars and other ninety-eight on the list, Luzhou Taishou Fu Youde sent his subordinates to Li Datong, escorted a cadre of Confucian scholars to Luzhou.

On the fifth day of the first month of March, the Luzhou Jixian Hall was crowded with people, and 600 candidates from all over the country gathered, waiting for the gong to open the examination.

Hao Ren also changed into a Confucian shirt, holding a volume of "The Art of War" in his hand, pretending to be a Confucian scholar and blending in among the scholars, Chen Da and Fei Champion two guards, carrying short blades, pretending to be scholars, followed closely!

Among the Confucian scholars, those who lack confidence and shake their heads are more talking.

Some are worried that Hao Ren is a red turban thief in the imperial court, if Hao Ren can't do it, he will become a thief, a Confucian scholar takes the lead, and the middle Confucian scholars echo it, and there is a great momentum to strike the exam.

"Don't worry, there is a way to win the hearts of the people to win the world, the generalissimo occupies the right time, the right place and the people, this world will be owned by the generalissimo!" Yangzhou Confucian Hu Ming boasted.

Hu Ming went to Yangzhou with the attitude of trying it out, and now he has come to Luzhou, and what he saw and heard along the way deeply touched him, and now, he is already a loyal follower of Qingfeng Army.

Immediately, a Confucian scholar from other places asked puzzledly: "What is the right time, place and people?" ”

"The generalissimo to the end of the Yuan Dynasty in the troubled times, lifting the three-foot 'Longquan' (in fact, Hao Ren was carrying a broken kitchen knife at the time) and raise things, abolish the harsh government, remove its violence and be good, follow the sky and respond to the people, where the army passes, destroy and wither, the Tartar soldiers hear its name and break the courage, now it is the Qingfeng army base for thousands of miles, the number of soldiers 'hundreds of thousands' (a bit of bragging), this is both the time of the day!" Hu Ming said generously.

A few scholars who ate melons nodded approvingly, and some Confucian scholars asked rhetorically: "Zhang Jiusi, Zhu Chongba and other princes also occupy the sky, can only the generalissimo dominate the world?" ”

"Good question!" Hu Ming praised: "The place that the generalissimo now occupies is the hinterland of the righteous army, there are Liu Futong, Zhang Jiusi, Zhao Junyong in the north, Xu Shouhui in the west, and Zhu Chongba in the south as the outer barrier of the Qingfeng army. ”

Hao Ren shook the folding fan and nodded in approval of this Confucian scholar's opinion, because he himself thought so, whether he could win the world, he himself didn't know, but this Confucian did have some insight, but it increased Hao Ren's confidence in winning the world.

"It is impossible for Meng Yuan to attack so many rebel armies at the same time, if there are one or two rebel armies that survive and develop in the cracks, and wait for many days with the generalissimo at that time, will it guarantee that the generalissimo will definitely be able to defeat them?" There was a Confucian who raised the bar with jealousy.

"Xiao Ke eavesdropped, the generalissimo is quite sociable, and the princes of all walks of life are good, the two princes in the east, Zhao Junyong, Zhang Jiusi, is the generalissimo with a male soldier defeated the millions of troops to escape, only to save the two righteous army, the generalissimo has a great favor to them, these two princes, how can they fight with the generalissimo for the world? The remaining Liu Futong is the generalissimo's sworn brother, and Zhu Chongba is the generalissimo's brother-in-law, how can these two compete with the generalissimo? If the generalissimo and the righteous army from all walks of life jointly attack the Tianwan regime, with the sharp artillery and male soldiers of the Qingfeng army, how can the Tianwan regime be the opponent of the generalissimo? The generalissimo annexed the rebel armies from all walks of life, and at that time, the million-strong army went north to the Central Plains, and the world could be determined! ”

The Confucian scholar Hu Ming spoke at length again, talking eloquently, and frequently nodding and praising what the Confucian scholars said.

Hao Ren doesn't quite agree! For example, the contradictions between Hao Ren, Zhu Chongba, and Liu Futong, Hu Ming didn't know, Zhang Shicheng and Zhao Junyong were also ambitious people who refused to be easily attached, and Hu Ming thought about the problem too simply.

A Confucian scholar in a lower position, if he can see these contradictions clearly, then he is even better than Zhuge Liang in Longzhong.

"Amitabha, what this brother said, the first two little monks quite agree, but this third one, the little monk thinks that the problem is not so simple!" A young monk in a robe with his hands folded.

Hu Ming was very polite and said, "I am willing to listen to the master's high opinion!" ”

"Amitabha, there is a way, people's hearts are sinister, and the leaders of the righteous armies from all walks of life are all dragons and phoenixes among people, how can this world brother be so simple as he said, sit back and watch the generalissimo dominate the world?" The monk said contemptuously.

This monk is right, it is not so easy to fight the world, and the heroes are not puppets to be manipulated by Hao Ren, Hao Ren was attracted by the monk's remarks, and turned his head to look at the monk!

Hao Ren didn't look at it, but when he saw it, he couldn't help but be surprised!
