Coming out of Jiang Mian's mansion, Xu Qian felt that someone seemed to be hiding in the dark and quietly watching him, he didn't care, he just pouted, he was a figure in the limelight, and Jiang Mian was a person on the cusp.

When he returned to the mansion, he began to prepare for going to Guozijian, in fact, at this time, Guozijian had already started classes, and Xu Qian delayed for a few days before he had to leave.

In fact, he went to Guozijian, he had considerations, he is now a celebrity after all, and the legends about himself are all over the city, of course, the legendary Xu Qian is most likely the evil dragon of the brave dragon Quest, and has become the object of disgust and smearing, and it is better to keep a low profile for controversial figures like him, so early the next morning, he took a few sets of clothes that he usually changed and carried a bookcase on his back and went alone.

Guozijian is not far from Miyagi, but it is quite quiet here, after all, it is a place for scholars, and it will not be set up under the overpass in the market, but it is said that in the evening, there will be some bookstalls and pen and ink stalls placed here, as well as special newsstands, all of which are newspapers sent from Hangzhou Kuaima, although they are not freshly baked, but the business is not bad.

Today's Guozijian school rules are not as strict as before, students can come and go freely, although it is not as magnificent as Nanjing Guozijian, there are thousands of mansions, but it is also one of the largest buildings in Beijing, there are hundreds of houses in it, the door is heavy, and the plaques of gold paint shine in the sun.

There is an errand guard at the door, naturally not ordinary people can enter and exit, Xu Qian went outside, made clear the intention, the messenger went in to report, and then led Xu Qian in.

I don't know how many gates I passed. Finally stopped outside the Minglun Hall, the entire Guozijian is divided into an office area and a school district, this is obviously the place where the officials work, the Guozijian has hundreds of officials, the Guozijian sacrificial wine is like a county, every morning to open the hall, and the senior officials enter the hall to perform.

Now this is the time for the opening of the hall, and the messenger first asked him to wait outside, and then invited Xu Qian to come in and speak after the church was over.

When Xu Qian walked into Minglun Hall. Although many officials have been dispersed, many of the backbone of the Guozijian are still there, and the Guozijian priest Cheng Lin sits high according to the case, looking forward to Zixiong, and there are officials such as the secretary, the supervisor, Xuezheng, and the master bookkeeper on the left and right.

The atmosphere in Minglun Hall was very depressing. Cheng Lin glanced at Xu Qian, and said in a flat tone: "You are Xu Qian, right?" The old man has been famous for a long time. ”

No matter how this sentence sounds, it feels a little ironic, but Xu Qian is not in a hurry, and said, "The student is Xu Qian, meet the great master." ”

When he threw his hand towards Cheng Lin, Cheng Lin's body was actually slightly on one side, in general. It's all polite, meaning that it doesn't deserve your big gift. However, the new prisoner came to report that the dignified sacrificial wine actually turned sideways, and it was not a shame to be here. It is clear that he is unwilling to accept Xu Qian's student gift.

When the other officials saw it, they immediately understood, and they were still smiling at Xu Qian, and suddenly their faces turned cold.

Cheng Lin said lightly: "The Zongling Mansion did say hello to let you study in prison. You are now in the name of an official and a student, and from now on you will enter the national prison, and the old man has heard that your learning is excellent. However, there are certainly a lot of talented people who have entered our country's prison, but our country's prison is the most important virtue, and talent is secondary, do you understand? ”

This is obviously coming to get off the horse, Xu Qian is not afraid, and said: "Students naturally know, students also read the books of saints, and they are most familiar with the principles of reporting to the country and saving the people, and they dare not insult the names of their ancestors." ”

Scholars like to talk around the bend, Xu Qian's meaning of this bend is: I am also a virtuous person, I report to the country, and save the people, so Ruyifang is not a role model? After adding a sentence that he did not dare to insult the sages, this means to sue Cheng Lin, I am also a person with good ancestors, you had better speak more leisurely.

In fact, the ancestor is important and important in this country, and it is not important to say that it is not important, if you have a good father, you are either rich or expensive, people may not be able to afford it, but if you have a person in your family, it will inevitably make people look high, Xu Qian deliberately mentioned his ancestors, this is the meaning, and he fell out, and you dare to disrespect even the prince of the country, and it is not easy to talk when it is passed out.

Cheng Lin had expected that Xu Qian was a prick, and was about to continue to clean him up, but heard someone laughing.

The person who smiled was Xuezheng Zhou Fang, and after Zhou Fang laughed, he said sharply: "The old man has also heard of Xu Jieyuan's name for a long time, and it is said that Xu Jieyuan is proficient in the Great Edict, right?" ”

Xu Qian glanced at Zhou Fang, nodded, and said, "Exactly." ”

Zhou Fang stood up, took his hands, looked at Xu Qian with cold eyes, and sneered at Xu Qian: "Since you are proficient in the Great Edict, you want to be familiar with the articles in this Great Edict, many of which are aimed at students, and among them are even harsher on prisoners, such as students are not allowed to make suggestions, students need to be like their fathers must not contradict them, students need to be grounded, if you want to get out of prison, you must be approved by the emperor personally, and there is another sentence, I don't know if you know or not, dare to slander the elders of the division, when Ling Chi ordered him to be in front of the prison, the whole family was confiscated, and the population moved to the ground. ”

He said so much in one breath, and immediately made Cheng Lin nod secretly, revealing joy.

This is called treating others the way they want to be treated, aren't you proficient in the great edicts? Didn't you clean up Wang Feng with a big message? Since that's the case, then I'll just take a big picture to give you some color. 、

You must know that there are a lot of constraints on prisoners in the Great Edict, because in Zhu Yuanzhang's view, prisoners are the future court officials, and they are all within the scope of his life and death.

There is a special content for inmates, not only in terms of study, but also in daily diet and daily life. For example, inmates are not allowed to enter the school kitchen without permission; It is forbidden to make irresponsible remarks about school meals; Singing and drinking are not allowed in the student dormitory; No other clothes are allowed, only school uniforms; Do not make noise during meals; It is forbidden to pretend to be sick; It is not allowed to loite. The inmates had no chairs in class, so they all stood and listened; If you have any questions that you don't understand, you must kneel down and listen to the teacher's explanation. There are students who violate the school rules and are going to be spanked. A worse punishment than spanking is to be confined to the army after spanking.

Therefore, at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the prisoners of the country were certainly the proud sons of heaven, and as long as they came out of their jobs, they would have officials. In just a few years, seven or eight prisoners died of starvation, and more than a dozen committed suicide.

Zhou Fang took out the allusion of the big edict to clean up Xu Qian, which just hit Xu Qian's weakness.

Xu Qian couldn't help but be stunned, and then smiled bitterly: "Dare to ask who the adult is?" ”

Zhou Fang glanced at him and said disdainfully: "Learn from Zhou Fang." ”

Hearing the word Xuezheng, Xu Qian was confused, didn't Jiang Mian say that there is a Xuezheng who can take care of himself? This Zhou Fang is too 'careful' of herself, how can she the guy and cut his own people?

He was puzzled, and Zhou Fang immediately said to Cheng Lin: "My lord, the lower officials supervise the school rules, and they must be strict in their studies, so Xu Qian will be taught by the lower officials, and the lower officials ...... It must be a good student. ”

Cheng Lin suddenly smiled, his relationship with Zhou Fang was actually not very good, but Zhou Fang suddenly sent a big gift to solve a trouble for him, and his perception of Zhou Fang suddenly improved a lot, and he quickly nodded and said, "There is Lao Ziyi." ”

Zhou Fang smiled, then glared at Xu Qian angrily, and said, "Freshman Xu Qian will go with the old man to release the number." ”

Xu Qian couldn't help but be speechless, he didn't understand Zhou Fang's thoughts for a while, and felt that it was not a good sign for him to become a teacher just after entering the country, but after all, he was born, he was a teacher, and his name was here, but he was helpless against Zhou Fang, so he could only hurriedly follow Zhou Fang out.

The so-called release is actually just an arrangement for new students to be imprisoned, such as providing accommodation, providing school uniforms, arranging for lectures, and so on.

Zhou Fang led Xu Qian to the prison first, this is a crumbling old building, I think it was built in Yongle, even the pillars have a musty smell, in fact, the prisoners sit in prison to study, must sleep in the prison, this is the rule in the early Ming Dynasty, but in the Yingzong period, this rule was abandoned, and the children of the official eunuchs in Beijing will take the car home after class. And even the people from other places are often very wealthy, and they are willing to live in inns outside, so except for a very small number of poor prisoners who still live here, most people are reluctant to come here because it is ...... It's so shabby.

Xu Qian couldn't help but shake his head, although he was not from a wealthy and noble family, he didn't live in this cowshed-like place, and couldn't help but complain to Zhou Fang: "Zhou Xuezheng, it seems that no one has lived here for a long time. ”

Zhou Fang straightened his face and said: "The Great Edict once said that prisoners are not allowed to leave the prison without authorization, and they need to take leave from the sacrificial wine to enter and exit, but those who rush out of the prison will be confiscated!" ”

Xu Qian was dumbfounded, he really had no way to meet such a master, he couldn't help but say, "But why can other prisoners come and go?" Adults seem to favor one over the other. ”

Zhou Fang looked at him coldly and said, "But the other students don't hold the big edict every day to restrain others, do they?" If you are so demanding of others, you should naturally be strict with yourself, don't you want to be lenient with yourself and strict with others? If this is the case, it seems that there was also a saying in the great edict: Whoever is wide on the inside and narrow on the outside, he will be beaten with twenty rods. ”

Xu Qian couldn't help but be stunned, his heart was crossed, he wanted to get closer, and said with a smile: "Last time the student had wine with Bachelor Jiang, Bachelor Jiang said......"

The expression on Zhou Fang's face became a little stricter, and he still said coldly: "Bachelor Jiang is high, I'm just a scholar, what, you want to use Bachelor Jiang to suppress the official?" If you do this, I am afraid that you will be suspected of bullying the teacher, and the great edict once said: Anyone who disobeys and bullies the teacher and the elder will be exiled for 3,000 miles, and the sin will be related to the family. ”
