There are not so many coincidences in the world, and this is not a coincidence today. Instead, Fang Yingwu informed Wang Zhixian in advance and deliberately arranged it.

Of course, Fang Yingwu is not bold enough to fabricate the imperial edict to add glory to himself, even if he wants to fake, Wang Zhixian will not go crazy with him, who can afford the crime of overbearing?

There is indeed such an edict, and it is true that the imperial court wants to consult Fang Yingwu's opinion. It's just that this edict arrived the day before yesterday, not today; And there is no need for this edict to be made public, so there is no need to go to the county school to announce it with great fanfare.

It turned out that there had been a drastic change in the north recently, and a war broke out between the Gangaslan Department and the Mandulu Khan Headquarters that had been co-opted by the imperial court, attacking and killing each other. Then suddenly came the news of Manduru Khan's death, which is said to have died of serious injuries.

After the Ming court learned the news, it immediately understood according to traditional thinking that "my emperor is sage, God bless the Ming Dynasty, China and foreign countries work together, strategize, the northern captives are infighting, and the chief is killed".

This shows that the previous strategy of co-opting and provoking is effective, and what Fang Yingwu said is correct. But in the face of this situation, what to do next needs to be carefully considered.

At this time, Liu Ji, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, proposed to consult the opinion of Fang Yingwu, the initiator, so the imperial court urgently issued an edict to the county government of Chun'an County and asked Fang Yingwu to express his views. And when he heard about this from Wang Zhixian the day before yesterday, Fang Yingwu could only smile bitterly, which was too much for him.

According to the original historical trajectory, Mandulu Khan probably hung up this year. Fang Yingwu originally thought that with his own butterfly effect, Mandu Lu would be able to live a few more years and confront Gaslan for a while. I didn't expect it to hang up this year.

What I didn't expect was that the imperial court actually attributed Mandulu to his dedication. and deliberately issued an urgent edict of six hundred miles to ask for the next step, which simply flattered Fang Daxiu.

Of course Fang Yingwu knew. According to the historical trajectory, Mandulu's widow, that is, the Empress of Manduhai, will choose Batu Mengke, who is less than ten years old, to succeed him as Khan, and the Ming Dynasty officially calls her "Little Prince".

Moreover, Manduhai will marry Batu Mengke again, and in the future, the desert will become the world of Manduhai and the new Khan's little prince. Especially the little prince, according to the original historical trajectory, this person will become the lord of the North Capture Zhongxing when he grows up.

In the long run, it makes sense to take out the little prince quickly, but in the short term. It was also difficult for the Ming court to immediately betray its promises and abandon the heir of Mandulu, the king of Shunyi.

Thinking about it, Fang Yingwu said: "Among the Tatars, there is a young man named Batu Mengke, who is the only bloodline of the Northern Yuan Golden Family, and the one who succeeds to the throne of the Khan must be this person, and the court can be canonized as the king of Shunyi."

If the new Shunyi king cannot destroy Gasilan after that, the court will still treat it according to the previous rules; If the new Shunyi king exterminates Gasilan, his momentum will be great. The imperial court can contact the East Horqin and Yisimain departments in the desert, canonize and open border tributes in turn, and induce them to compete with the headquarters of the king of Shunyi.

In any case, we must not sit idly by and watch the new Shunyi King Batu Mengke command the desert. No, then there is no infinity either. ”

Fang Yingwu's letter was handed over to Wang Zhixian as early as yesterday and sent out. But in order to make himself clean in the county school, Fang Yingwu asked the county to help with acting. Deliberately sent a servant today in the name of summons to the county school to announce this edict in public.

His purpose was to deter those who were not convinced. Use facts to let everyone understand how big the gap is in life, so as not to always have people who don't open their eyes to provoke.

But here's what's interesting. Today, Meng Jiao's edict came up with a side policy question, which contrasted with the imperial court's edict to inquire about the countermeasures of Fang Yingwu's side affairs, which was really a coincidence. As soon as he thought of this, Fang Yingwu felt funny in his heart.

Being able to let the imperial court directly issue an edict to ask for advice, and it is also a vital border matter, this has too much impact on ordinary scholars who live in the county school.

After Fang Yingwu left, the county school Minglun Hall collectively lost its voice. Although the person is gone, the sentence "The side policies I wrote are all military secrets, and it is inconvenient for you to read them" is still in my ears.

In the big clans of Chun'an County, all kinds of canonization edicts are not uncommon, and almost every big family has some, but they belong to others in the family, not their own.

Moreover, a formal canonization is not the same thing as an edict of advice, and the symbolic meaning is very different. The imperial court issued an edict to inquire about important military affairs, which is clearly the treatment of the cloth and the prime minister in the history books.

Objectively speaking, the real situation is not so exaggerated. However, Fang Yingwu pretended to be too successful, the vision of the students in the districts and counties was too low, and the imagination of people was also infinite, so it was inevitably exaggerated.

Some people who read a lot of words and novels can't help but think, this party should go out to study for a year, is it because he met the Son of Heaven who paid a private visit to Weifu, and then coaxed the Sacred Heart to be happy and get the grace of knowing it?

pressed other people's thoughts and did not express it, but said that Fang Yingwu followed the yamen out of the county school. entered the courtyard of the county government hall again, and there was no need to continue the play. Fang Yingwu thanked the servant: "It's hard work!" ”

The errand hurriedly smiled and said, "The eldest lord and Fang Xianggong have instructions, and it is also a small duty. ”

After that, the two separated, and Fang Yingwu came out of the county government and walked back to school. As he was passing through the cross street in the county, he suddenly heard someone shouting: "Isn't it Brother Fang Xian in front!" ”

Fang Yingwu turned his head to look, but saw Xiang Chengxian, who had not been seen for a long time, waving to him, next to him was Hong Songhong, who was not far from Meng, and behind them were two servants.

It seems that after hearing the news of the county school year, these two acquaintances finally came to the county seat to prepare for school, and now they have a place to live! Xiang Chengxian's house in the county town has a large area and a separate outer courtyard, which is very suitable for placing Sister Lan.

Fang Yingwu seemed to see the house with long legs walking towards him, and happily stepped forward to salute: "I've seen two virtuous brothers, don't come here unharmed?" When did you arrive in the county? ”

Hong Song replied: "I arrived this morning, I just settled down, and I was about to go to the county school. ”

Xiang Chengxian also interjected and replied: "Brother Fang Xian's blessing, I have been reading and reading very well in the past year, and I have forgotten what it is like outside the study." I also heard that the county school had an annual examination, so I came to enroll. ”

The three of them exchanged a few words of greeting, and were discussing whether to go to the county school first or find a place to drink first. The attentive Hong Song suddenly noticed something strange.

He asked: "The county school year exam is imminent, and presumably all the gentlemen in the school dare not slack off." Now is the time to read and lecture. Brother Fang Xian, why are you wandering out alone? ”

"There's a reason for that," Fang replied.

Xiang Chengxian's eyebrows furrowed, and he snorted coldly and said to Hong Song first: "What else can there be." Presumably because you and I have not been in the county school for the past few days, and some of them have been humiliated to Brother Fang Xian, so he is resentful in his heart, and he can't get rid of it, so he can only wander outside alone. ”

Fang Yingwu was very impressed by Xiang Chengxian's imagination, and hurriedly denied it: "This is not the case, no one in the county school can bully me."

Xiang Chengxian interrupted Fang Yingwu, "I don't believe this. Your temperament is the most face-saving, even if you are bullied, you will not tell others. For fear of losing face, he will only secretly find a way to retaliate.

Therefore, after having this kind of thing, he must deliberately hide it in his heart and do not want to be known to his friends. But you hide it from others, but you can't hide it from me! ”

Fang Yingwu was dumbfounded, Xiang Dagongzi's thinking was too jumpy and divergent, and he was about to continue to deny it, but at this time, Hong Song grabbed the conversation again and continued to say: "Brother Fang Xian, please rest assured. With me and the other, I will not let others continue to insult you. ”

"It's definitely not as you think, there was an edict just now, and I went to the county government to receive the edict."

Xiang Chengxian stared at Fang Yingwu and said with a smile: "Make up the reasons and make up something decent." Do you think that with my intelligence, I believe that there is an edict coming to you? Why don't you say that the Buddha has sent down the decree? ”

Fang Yingwu could only wave his hand helplessly, "Whatever you think." ”

The three of them walked to the county school together, and agreed to find a place to eat and drink after reporting for duty. before entering the instrument gate. From a distance, I saw that the schoolwork had dispersed, and the crowd of people scattered from Minglun Hall.

Xiang Chengxian patted his fan. "It's just the right time to come, gentlemen have time." No need to sit back and wait. Then he was about to say: "After seeing Mr., let's see who is so bold and dares to humiliate Brother Fang Xian." ”

What does this eldest prince want to do? Do you fear that the world will not be chaotic? Fang Yingwu pursed his lips and sneered, "It looks like Brother Xiang is excited? Xiang Chengxian said haha, "I haven't seen my classmates for a long time, it's inevitable, it's inevitable!" ”

At this time, a scholar in his thirties walked in front of the three of them, Xiang Chengxian immediately changed the topic, and said to the comer: "Brother Liu, there is no need to be polite, what are you doing?" ”

Fang Yingwu also knew that the surname of this classmate who came to them was Liu Mingyandao, and he was also an old qualified student in the county school. Of course, an old qualified student is not a good word, it can only mean that this person has wasted time and cannot make an inch.

Liu Yandao ignored Xiang Chengxian and Hong Song, but first saluted the other party: "I've seen classmate Fang!" Without waiting for the three of them to react, he said: "This year's tribute, please ask classmate Fang to help, and there will be a report later." ”

The so-called tribute is another way out for the county students. If you really can't pass the exam, Xiucai can be sorted according to age, and once a year, he will be promoted to pay tribute, and he will be admitted to the Guozijian in turn, and he can still be an official after he comes out.

Of course, people with such ambitions as the other party should not disdain to take this path, but for many others, it is also a good way out.

However, a county school only has one place for tribute students every year, so it is still very tight, and several people often compete for a place.

The two sons of Hong Xiang were stunned and looked at each other dumbfounded.

If Liu Yandao asked the two of them to help seize the quota, it didn't seem too unusual. With their family background and their own strength, the two of them can be regarded as "influential" figures in the county school, no worse than Xu Huai.

But this classmate Liu actually ignored the two of them and ran over to ask Fang Yingwu for help, is this the wrong medicine? Fang Yingwu, a rookie student who has not been in the county school for a few days, what can he help?

"Are you here" Xiang Chengxian couldn't help but stretch out his finger and point to his head.

Fang Yingwu was also stunned, first, he was shocked that this thing also needs to be operated in the dark? The second is that everyone is a reader, shouldn't they be subtle in their speech, why is it so straightforward? He couldn't help but look at Hong Song with a questioning expression.

Hong Song shook his head, and the other party responded: "The county school has always been like this, there is no need to make a fuss, and the instructor can't control this." ”

Fang Yingwu smiled bitterly, he hadn't figured out before, the serious way out of the student Xiucai was nothing more than the township examination and the tribute election to be imprisoned, both of which were transferred by the student's own will, so what is the use of being a student in the county school, and what are the benefits?

It stands to reason that a phenomenon that is not driven by profit will not be a long-term phenomenon. What can people like Xu Huai get by being a top student? Is it very satisfying to bully newcomers every year?

Now Fang Yingwu has finally figured it out, this is really profitable, the education industry is really not simple, the connotation of Xueba turns out to be like this!

"I beg classmate Fang to help me!" Liu Yandao said firmly, ignoring the strange expressions of Xiang Chengxian and Hong Song next to him. (To be continued......)
