Chapter 138: Candidates
Carrying the huge red carp back to the academy, the thought moved, so he simply called Wang Fu and Xiao Hanfeng, and the three of them opened a small stove, stewed a pot of delicious carp soup, and ate and drank happily.
In the afternoon class, the dean suddenly announced that two representative students would be selected to go to Kaitai Academy in Zhejiang to participate in the talent competition held on April 1 this year, and the list of representatives would be officially announced three days later.
Hundreds of students in the upper courtyard were all emotional, especially a few old Xiucai who were old and had white beard and hair, and even rolled up their sleeves and straightened their necks, eager to jump up and grab the dean, asking the other party to pick themselves. You must know that for them, the hope of passing the official township examination is very slim, and the only hope is Enko. Even if you don't get Enko in the end, if you have some performance, it is also a good choice to become a "year tribute student".
The so-called "Sui Gong Sheng" means that the imperial court selects individual members from the official schools of various states to go to Beijing every year to enter the Guozijian to study and become Sui Gong.
Being able to study in the country is the wish of people all over the world.
Guozijian is the first-class college of the dynasty, and the success rate is surprisingly more than ninety. In other words, its status exists, which is equivalent to Tsinghua University and Peking University in Chen Jianchen's previous life, and has a very special status.
However, the age of tribute students generally belongs to the comfort xìng quality, that is, they are quite prestigious in the local area, and only those who have reached a certain age have the opportunity to be selected, and the younger generation is basically useless.
Three days later, when the candidates were announced, many people couldn't hold back and hurriedly stepped up their activities to see if they could find out some useful information.
Unexpectedly, this time the dean's tone was unusually tight, and he only vaguely said that five candidates had been preliminarily decided, and then reported to the academic administration, and finally the decision had to be made by the academic administration.
Master Gu lives in Jiangzhou Mansion, and it is difficult to find him to go to the sky. After all, the students studying in Minghua Academy have only average backgrounds, and the better ones are from the common landlord class such as Wang Fu, but if they want to have a relationship with the academic and political adults, there is still a short distance in between.
Ming Wah College, in terms of level and fame, is only a college ranked lower. In the past, Wu Wencai would have studied here because of Nie Xiaoqian, otherwise someone with a prominent background like him would have gone to other big academies and even Guozijian a long time ago.
The quality of the school can often determine a person's future.
Whether he can go to Zhezhou is subject to Xuezheng's decision, and the news that Wang Fu is asked to ask someone to inquire has come to fruition.
Sure enough, the knight had a great background, and he was a guerrilla general among the blackshirts, with a transcendent and special status. His surname is Jiang, his name is Yu, and he is known as the "left sword and right sword".
The imperial court sent such a person to Jiangzhou to investigate Wu Wencai's death, which seems to be a bit out of common sense. Since it was determined that it was a monster who committed the murder, the person who came should be a Taoist monk, so that it was targeted against xìng. Could it be that this Jiang Yu is not only strong in martial arts, but also able to catch ghosts and subdue demons?
Chen Jianchen doesn't know much about martial artists, and basically stays in his imagination, such as the light skills of flying eaves and walking walls, the martial arts of swords and swords, and so on. In this world, the only person he has ever had close contact with who knows martial arts is Nie Xiaoqian, but he has only seen her light skills, and the specific situation is not clear.
I had heard Qingyun Dao Chang say before that the person who practiced martial arts was strong and strong, hún 魄 was strong, and his blood qi was very strong, and the weak yīn god did not dare to invade at all. According to this statement, there is also a certain factual basis for a martial artist to subdue demons and eliminate demons, although Jiang Yu is only one person, but as long as his individual strength is outstanding, he can defeat one hundred enemies.
Thinking like this, he couldn't help but be faintly worried about the situation of Ying Ning and Xiaoyi.
That night, Chen Jianchen sat in the school building, restless, unable to read, so he simply took out the water-avoiding bead and came out to enjoy and watch.
This bead, as big as a projectile, has a slight weight in the hand, and the whole body is rǔ white sè, translucent, smelling, there is a faint fishy smell, but it is not unpleasant.
Chen Jianchen looked at it for a while, and suddenly blew out the lights, and in the darkness, there was a circle of brilliance emitted from the bead's body, but it was not as bright as the legendary night pearl, it was only a circle of rǔ light, which was very soft.
He lit the lamp again, found a piece of brocade cloth, wrapped it in water-repellent beads, and put it close to his body.
According to the river god Ding Yin, in order to avoid the effect of water droplets, it is necessary to swallow them. It's just that with an instinctive vigilance, Chen Jianchen did not eat the water droplets in a hurry, but prepared to keep them first. After all, between him and Ding Yin, they are just general friends, and they lack certain means of identification, so they are cautious in everything.
Regarding dealing with the Beacon Mountain God, Ding Yin did not elaborate on it last night, and it is estimated that he is planning a plan. When the plan is complete, he will come back and tell Chen Jianchen. As a river god, he has a duty to do so, and he can't leave the place under his jurisdiction rashly and go ashore to stay away. If he is discovered by the lord of the city god, he will not be punished.
The next two days passed unfazed, and on the third day, the day when the scholars were to announce the candidates for the trip to Zhezhou, all the students in the upper courtyard were dressed up and sat upright in the huge classroom.
Jiangzhou Xuezheng Gu, the name of the word "Cheng" and "cherish the dynasty" is just in his early forties this year, and he is in the prime of life. His appointment as a student in Jiangzhou was last year.
Last year, there was a big earthquake in Jiangzhou officialdom, and Lord Nie of Zhizhou was demoted, and a group of officials under him were taken off their black gauze hats, so it can be said that a large number of people were replaced, and Gu Xichao was transferred to Jiangzhou under such circumstances.
The academic administration is in charge of the education imperial examination, and he belongs to the official of the three grades, and has a great future. Of course, it depends on the performance of the students under its jurisdiction, and the number of students in the middle school can be said to be a project with a considerable proportion.
The level of education in Jiangzhou has always been low, and the number of admission places in each township examination can be said to be the bottom three among the eighteen states of the dynasty, so it has become less pleasant to serve as a student in Jiangzhou.
In fact, Gu Xichao was indeed a little unhappy that he was transferred to Jiangzhou, Jiangzhou's poor education level is one thing, the location is remote, and the production is barren on the other. But if you are not happy, you have to come to work.
Gu Xuezheng is of medium stature, on the thin side, his fingers are very slender, they are trimmed cleanly, and he is very beautiful, and it can be seen that he is very satisfied with his hands.
This is a middle-aged man who likes his own hands.
Sitting in his position, observing Gu Xuezheng's every move, he had a preliminary judgment in his heart.
When Gu Xuezheng came, the huge classroom was silent, and he could hear even a needle dropping, and the expectant eyes flocked to the mouth of Lord Xuezheng, eager to get into his stomach and see who the final list would be.
Gu Xuezheng first gave some instructional speech, his tone was a little slow, it sounded as if he had been picked out one by one, and there were many modal words. What "um", "ah", "ah" and so on, it drags on for a long time.
The students were very patient, but they were all as anxious as ants on a hot pot.
"Well, in view of the invitation of this college by Zhejiang Kaitai College, so we want to select two student representatives to participate, after some research, this academic government finally has an ideal candidate, they are Chen Liuxian, and Xiao Hanfeng. ”
As soon as the two names came out, there was an uproar below, and two old Xiucai seemed to be unable to stand such a blow, and actually fell to the ground with a crackle, and only after half a salary could they get up, causing a burst of chaos.
"Master Xuezheng, students are against it!"
"The students are also against it. ”
And there was a great uproar.
When the dean next to him saw it, he was immediately annoyed, and slapped the ring ruler on the table: "What kind of system is it to be so noisy? You have read the books of the sages in vain, and you have no regard for etiquette at all." ”
The dean was highly respected and majestic, and everyone suddenly didn't dare to say anything.
Gu Xuezheng snorted and said, "Chen Liuxian and Xiao Hanfeng, you come out, this Xuezheng has something to tell you." After speaking, he was the first to walk out of the classroom.
Chen Jianchen and Xiao Hanfeng naturally followed without objection.
The dean didn't seem to be angry, and reprimanded him again, and then walked away.
However, as soon as he left, the other gentlemen and masters left, and the class suddenly exploded like a nest, how could they be angry and indignant: "This Chen Liuxian and Xiao Hanfeng must have given gifts and left the back door, otherwise how could the academic master choose them?"
"Isn't it? Two young people who have not dried up, how can He De represent the academy?"
"Shame, it's a shame, although Chen Liuxian was the first in the three tries, his performance in the academy was useless, and he couldn't even do a good job in a current article, and he was able to represent the academy to participate in the world's first talent competition, isn't that ridiculous and generous? And Xiao Hanfeng is just a new student, ......and he doesn't have any qualifications."
"No, Master Xuezheng insists on going his own way, we can't stop there, and watch the two boys ruin the reputation of the academy with blank eyes. ”
"What can I do?" The dean has spoken, and his arm can't be twisted into a big tuǐ......"
"Hmph, I, Zhang Lei, have put my words here today, if Chen Liuxian and Xiao Hanfeng don't make a mess and make jokes in the competition, I will eat the desk!"
"I, Li Changkong, eat the chair ......"
"I, Ye Mingyu, eat the pen and ink......"
It is very miraculous, the pen is scolding, surging like a wave, and everyone is unprecedentedly angry with the enemy, wanting to drown Chen Jianchen and Xiao Hanfeng with saliva.
Wang Fu listened to it with a lot of taste, and he had an idea, picked up the brush and brushed it on the paper to record, to make a "scene memo", especially the various vows of the students who were full of indignation and strangeness, and they could not be missed. After memorizing it, you can show this to Chen Jianchen and Xiao Hanfeng.
Then he was also puzzled by the selection of the two friends, because they were not convincing enough in other ways except for their youth, but he didn't know what the Scholar had taken a fancy to them.
In other words, why didn't you fancy yourself?
We're young, aren't we!。
