Yushan Academy closed the mountain for ten days, during these ten days, no idle people were allowed to enter the Yushan School District, the Yunjia Zhuangzi outside Yushan City was full of scholars and anxious parents who came to take the exam, and the scorching sun in May could not let them have a moment of leisure, looking at them stretching their necks to look at Yushan, the old farmer of Yunjia Zhuangzi would take out rice wine and invite them to drink a glass.

"Don't worry, ten days, the gentlemen of the academy are all reviewing the papers, more than 10,000 students, doesn't it take such a long time? What's more, they don't just mark the entire paper by one person, and a gentleman can mark at most one question. So it takes a long time, sit down with peace of mind, have a glass of wine, the babies have already passed the exam, it's useless to be anxious, even if it's written wrong, it can't be changed, and Your Majesty doesn't have this ability. Drink! ”

On Mayday, the old farmer was barefoot, with his big calloused hands holding a wine bowl, and drank it all at once, until the scholar was surprised to ask why the old peasant knew so well about such a major matter as the exam.

The old farmer curled up his legs proudly, looked at Yushan City and said proudly: "The baby in the family is angry, he was admitted to Yushan Academy ten years ago, he studied well in the academy, and was left by Mr. as a teaching assistant, and after six years of teaching assistant, he became a formal gentleman, and his temper was very big, and the old man was curious to go to the academy to see how he reviewed the papers, but he was beaten by him, saying that His Majesty could not enter the ...... casually."

Saying that the emperor can't enter is naturally joking, Li Er and the eldest grandson are now watching around accompanied by Yun Ye, and they saw that the scribe in the academy was wearing a short gown with a bare back, and a pair of bloomers on his lower body, hurriedly passing through various rooms, each room was open in the door, and there were four gentlemen sitting inside. Grading papers.

Li Er wanted to stop a scribe, but Yun Ye hurriedly dissuaded him: "Your Majesty, the current volumes are only half approved, if you stop the scribe, it will disrupt the rhythm, it is better for you to go to the back of the process to take a look." ”

"Rhythm? What's a strange statement? Li Er was stunned for a moment and turned around and asked Yun Ye, who was pushing the cart.

"Each gentleman has a certain number of papers to mark in a fixed amount of time. The scrolls of the entire academy passed through the eyes of the gentlemen like flowing water, so that they could do the most things in the shortest time, and the assembly line should be very familiar to His Majesty, and this is how the firearms workshop works. Yun Ye lowered his voice and said.

Li Er nodded and said, "I see, I asked this scribe to stop, that is, let the water stop flowing, the back will pile up, and the front will be idle." Let's go to the pool and see. ”

The more you reach the closest, the older the gentleman will be, the higher the official position, and some special rolls will be drawn out separately and decided by several old gentlemen.

Mr. Yuanzhang was the one who came to the most conclusions, so Yun Ye took the emperor and his wife directly to Mr. Yuanzhang's room. Li Er stopped Yun Ye's plan to report and got out of the car. When I walked to the door of the room, I saw Mr. Yuanzhang immersed in his work and couldn't extricate himself. There are ink dots everywhere on the snow-white beard, probably when you see a wonderful article, and you still shake your head.

"The mountain is high, the sea is flat, the ants are in China, and the whip is fast...... Hehe. The old man's mind is born at a young age, this is deliberate, boy, can it resonate with the old man by writing it like this on purpose? But I don't know that the old man and others like the most high-flying and domineering words, as for the steady and down-to-earth. That's what the academy wants to teach you, a few rockeries will always be smoothed, and the disobedient foal is the one who can run, and now it's dead, what do you want Yushan Academy to do?

For the sake of your ten-year cold window, you are also a little talented, so you are admitted, inferior! ”

Mr. Yuanzhang finished talking to himself, picked up the pen and made a circle on the volume, and there were two more words in the circle, inferior!

Li Er walked in, Mr. Yuan Zhang still didn't look up, thinking that it was a scribe, so he pushed his teapot forward, meaning to ask the scribe to fill his teapot with water.

Where did Yun Ye dare to let Li Er do this, he hurriedly took it, and saw that the tea had been brewed, so he changed the tea leaves, and then put the teapot in the position that Mr. Yuanzhang was comfortable with.

Mr. Yuanzhang looked up and saw Yun Ye in front of him, and immediately frowned and said, "What are you doing here?" You don't have to manage things outside? If you haven't started grading the arithmetic papers, you shouldn't come to the liberal arts. ”

The emperor, who was looking through the scroll in the corner, smiled: "Sir, is too strict, although Yun Ye is sleek, he is still sincere in his approach to knowledge, doesn't have to be like this?" ”

Yuan Zhang saw that the emperor and queen were here, so he hurriedly wanted to get up, but he didn't get up for a while, glared at Yun Ye, and Yun Ye hurriedly helped the old man up to greet the emperor and queen.

"The old minister was so stunned that he didn't notice the arrival of His Majesty, and he was rude."

Li second-hand took a scroll and said with a smile: "They are all working for the country, and the diligent king has reached the point of forgetting himself, it should be me to thank you, they are all old people, so I will be exempt from these false courtesies."

It's just that I'm more strange, the poems and articles on this volume look very good, why are they also degraded? Could it be that the threshold of Yushan Academy has reached such a high level? ”

Mr. Yuanzhang said with a smile: "What Your Majesty said is: Horse Tie Lian Qian, Chang'an Xia Boy." The emperor is as flat as water, and the official road is as straight as a string. Night jade axle, autumn gold cast horsewhip. Wind and frost but self-preservation, poor as the emperor. This poem?

If it is this person, the academy will naturally be dethroned, this poem is full of wealth, it is catchy to read, and it can be regarded as a masterpiece, but the academy has never valued poetry, his political arguments, the donkey's lips of the two answers are not the horse's mouth, but a single poem is not enough to knock on the door of the academy. ”

Li Er looked at the previous volume again, sighed and put it down and said to Yuan Zhang: "It is said that the articles of the prosperous era, the articles of the prosperous era, such talents are not tolerated by the academy, can't the two topics of political theory and debate be studied again after entering the academy?" ”

This is already pleading for this scholar, which is already very rare for Li Er.

"No! If this person cares a little about the government and pays a little attention to the suffering of the people, whether it is the worker, peasant or businessman, he can have his own opinions, but it is a pity that the old minister did not see from his article that the students who went out of the academy were all talents who should be used, and the academy did not accept the specialized talents who sang the praises of virtue. ”

Li Er didn't expect Mr. Yuanzhang to refuse his request so simply, and he couldn't help but feel very unhappy in his heart, and the eldest grandson smiled and took out a high-quality volume from the pile of papers and looked at it carefully. After reading it, he showed it to the emperor, and said in his mouth: "The high-grade volume is really extraordinary, and the knowledge whip penetrates into it, and this person wants to see it." ”

Li Er took the scroll and couldn't help but open his mouth and read: "Money has no attributes since the day he was born, and it is born with a magical power.

I am extremely ugly, but money can buy me the most beautiful woman, so money cancels out the strength of the ugly, I am a cripple, but money can buy me a hundred legs, so money also covers up the shortcomings of my cripple.

I am an evil, immoral, conscienceless, dishonest person, but money is revered, and therefore its possessor is revered......

Whoever can buy bravery, he is a brave man, even if he is a coward, money can make ice and charcoal in the same furnace, and it can also make enemies turn hostility into jade silk! ”

Li Er looked at Yuan Zhang in a daze after reading it, he didn't understand until now why the eldest grandson Weilu would speak in such a strange tone, this guy is simply a fan of money, a bastard, if you distinguish between a gentleman and a villain, this guy is definitely a villain, and he is a villain who is extremely despicable.

Yuan Zhang said with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't be confused by these shocking arguments, look at his discussion of money, one of which is like this: without money, we don't need to produce too much food, without money, we don't need to catch a lot of prey, without money, we don't need to make more clay pots, in general, he is the sail of our world."

Hehe, Your Majesty, you see, this is actually the essence of money, a young man, the truth may seem immature, it will be very harsh, many times what they think and do is contrary to our wishes, but Your Majesty, the empire needs all kinds of talents, and those who pour out of the same model are not talents.

Weichen thinks that the miser can manage the treasury, the boastful can go to the Honglu Temple, the brave and good fighter can go to the army, and the righteous can serve as a spokesman, as for this little guy, after the academy training, he can go out to collect money for the empire, only people who love money to the bone can be qualified to comment on money, and will have a new understanding of money.

If His Majesty asks him to manage the treasury, it will be a disaster for the empire, let him become a deserter, let him serve as a speech official, that is a disaster for the people, but let him manage the state and collect wealth for the empire, such a person is definitely the best choice. The reason why Wechen gave him excellent grades was that he hoped to continue to cultivate his strengths, supplemented by harsh laws, to see where he could go and how much benefit he could bring to the empire. ”

After Yuan Zhang said these words, not only Li Er was dumbfounded, but the queen's eyes widened, and Yun Ye was also surprised.

God, this is the most old-fashioned old gentleman in the academy? This is the most pure saint among the imperial scholars? Really, I really didn't expect that under his old-fashioned skin, what a delicate heart was hidden.

Li Er clenched his fist to his mouth and coughed and said, "Yushan Academy is really educational!" ”

Yuan Zhang said with a smile: "Putting the spikes on the wall can prevent thieves, and putting them at the door will hurt you, so when Your Majesty is using the students of the academy, it is best to distinguish clearly, Yushan Academy is only responsible for training, not for the future!"
