Chapter 179: Dragon Boat Festival Enrollment

In the late spring of the ninth year of the Great Jin Dynasty, on the third day of the fifth month, Taifu Zhong Xuan turned 55 years old, this is not a big birthday, Zhong Taifu also felt happy when he was 50 years old, but now his birthday has lost its taste!

Mrs. Zhong is the son-in-law of the old Si Nong of the previous dynasty, and Mrs. Xie is a cousin of the Empress Dowager Xie of the current dynasty!

Zhong Taifu has been an official for many years, but his identity is obviously the queen mother's party, one of several important figures in the court of the Xie family, and has always been the most trusted person of the old Si Nong, so he is also equivalent to the Xie group and the queen mother's figure in the court.

The day before yesterday, in the early dynasty, Prime Minister Yu Guozhong first implemented the new law in four counties around Luoyang, and asked the state and county governments to send personnel to supervise the results of the implementation, and launched a court discussion on this matter!

Among them, Mrs. Zhong was even more dissatisfied with Prime Minister Yu Guozhong, pointing at his nose and scolding him, "Bringing disaster to the country and the people, and not hesitating to betray the court for the sake of his own name, he is really a person who deceives the world and steals his name."

Prime Minister Yu Guozhong's face suddenly darkened when he was scolded! The little emperor yawned on the throne and touched a set of toys in his sleeve, Empress Dowager Xie frowned, and was noncommittal behind the bead curtain.

The Dragon Boat Festival has always existed, and this is nothing more than the common people after the sting and the valley rain, before the weather gradually gets hotter, the sanitary dust in every corner of the Jiang family is cleaned up, and some snakes, insects, rats and ants that have been entrenched in the house after awakening are driven out! Therefore, there is a custom of burning wormwood, lighting realgar, and drinking realgar wine.

It coincided with Mrs. Zhong's birthday, and Mrs. Zhang of the family asked him to give him a big deal, but Mrs. Zhong instructed him to keep things as simple as possible, and to find some relatives and friends to have a simple meal! Now that everyone is implementing the new law, strict officials are corrupt, and everyone is in danger of holding their own birthday banquets, it is inevitable that they will be suspected of receiving gifts on this basis.

So Mrs. Zhong's birthday was held in the form of a party and family banquet, and there were not many guests who came and went to congratulate him, although it was simpler, but it was still quite lively! Some people specially used a kind of dahlia peony flower to congratulate Mrs. Zhong on his birthday, which made Mrs. Zhong's whole family feel festive!

No one would think much about the birthday celebration of this family banquet, but the next day it was reported that Zhong Taifu's family banquet was poisoned!

Fortunately, the symptoms of poisoning were relatively mild and there was no danger to life for the time being.

This incident suddenly caused an uproar in the Great Jin Jingshi, and the Empress Dowager Xie was furious and ordered the Imperial Lieutenant Bureau, Jing Zhaoyin, and Taichang Taiqing White Horse Temple to thoroughly investigate the matter and arrest the murderer!

The entire divine capital Luoyang suddenly fell into a panic, and in broad daylight, the Bu Cao guards of the Imperial Governor's Office and the messengers of the Jingzhao Mansion were strictly investigated everywhere, and the Zhong Mansion was interrogated door-to-door near the Zhong Mansion, and many officials were brought into the Imperial Governor's Office for questioning!

And the fact that Zhong Taifu and the twelve ministers of the court were all poisoned and died also became the fuse for the outbreak of quarrels in the court.

But all this has nothing to do with Yang Yu, on the fifth day of the fifth month of May, the sky is high and the clouds are light, the breeze is blowing, Yang Yu is in a good mood, he sits on an ox cart and goes towards Sheshan!

Today is the day of enrollment in the late spring of Guanglin Academy, in addition to the enrollment of students who have various recommendations to enter the inside and outside of the school, Guanglin Academy also has a formal enrollment, that is, on the fifth day of the fifth month of May, to give those who are not recommended, but want to enter the other academy to study!62

But this kind of examination admission method is the most cruel, Guanglin School stipulates that the way of taking one out of a hundred! This is destined to many people still have no chance to enter this bamboo forest courtyard.

Despite this, the young students and young talents who entered the school to devote themselves to serving the country still came in an endless stream, hoping that they could be admitted to the Guanglin School with what they had learned in their lives, so as to get a good background for the future.

Of course, there are also some cultivators here, anyway, entering the Guanglin Academy is the best choice to be able to embark on the path of cultivation, so this annual twilight spring enrollment is the hottest expectation ignited in everyone's hearts.

Different from the cold food admissions, this time in the admissions exam, there will no longer be military talents, but it does not mean that Guanglin Academy is not a military talent, so among the six arts, it is natural to join the competition of riding archery and strength!

The foot of Sheshan is now crowded with people, except for the candidates who applied for the exam. There are also many parents of candidates who have relatives and friends who have come to support, in addition to a large number of people who have come to see the excitement.

In recent years, the ordinary people have been very happy to be able to live in Luoyang City, the divine capital of the Great Jin Dynasty, because in recent years, the wind and rain in the Great Jin Dynasty have been smooth, and since the implementation of the new law, the people have received a lot of benefits! The quality of life is constantly growing, and every few months, various folk activities and festivals make their spare time life also sufficient.

Although they also know that the current emperor is young, he can use a talent like Yu Guozhong to govern the country, which shows that the little emperor is also very wise, but among the people, Yu Guozhong's prestige overshadows all the high.

When Yang Yu's ox cart reached the foot of She Mountain, he couldn't walk, and he was about to get out of the car and walk, but he heard the noise behind the car, and couldn't help but poke his head out to watch.

However, it was found that behind the ox cart, a two-horse gorgeous carriage was blocked on the road, and the people who could afford the carriage in the Great Jin Dynasty were obviously not simple, and they were naturally either rich or expensive! Now they were blocked by the ox cart on the road, and the chariot was naturally very dissatisfied.

"Get out of the way of the car in front, don't get in the way if you can't walk!" shouted the driver from behind.

The person who drove the car for Yang Yu was a middle-aged man, and this person's temper was also very strong! He turned his head and shouted: "Let what? It's about to be the steps up the mountain, do you have the ability to drive the car up the steps?"

"Why not? We're a two-wheeled carriage!" shouted from behind.

The middle-aged man in the ox cart sneered and said, "What if you are eight carriages? This Sheshan has more than 300 steps, and it is always a walk, so you are allowed to walk in the carriage there! It is great to have a carriage? The family is rich and great?"

The driver of the carriage stood up to watch, but found that the road in front of him was indeed steps, and many vehicles were parked on the square at the foot of the mountain.

I couldn't help but roll up my sleeves and jump out of the car to ......!
