Li Tingxiu walked into the lecture hall to teach normally, without mentioning anything about the Winter Solstice Poetry Club.

Because in his eyes, as long as he enters this school, he is just a student, no matter how famous he is outside, it has nothing to do with it.

In the classroom, the only thing to do is to preach and teach and solve doubts.

After the end of the morning school, the students finally began to can't help it, quietly discussing the story of Shen Yichen's poetry meeting last night.

It's just that compared to the previous unscrupulousness, now they speak much more low-key. Maybe this is the reality, when Shen Yichen's identity and fame greatly widened the gap with his classmates, those who looked down on him before had to bow their heads now.

The popularity of the Winter Solstice Poetry Club reached its peak in the next period of time, mainly because Shen Yichen's song "Jin Mingchi" was continuously sung by Qinhuai geisha and gradually spread to the north and south of the river.

But there will always be a day when the popularity will go down, and almost a month later, the name Shen Yichen began to be gradually forgotten by people.

The reason for this, in addition to the time factor, is more important than Shen Yichen's fame. No matter how unparalleled the poems are written, even schoolchildren can't pass the exam, and they can't erect a tall image in the hearts of the world's scholars.

There may be a lot of people who agree that Shen Yichen is talented, but few people will learn to imitate Shen Yichen and regard him as their idol.

Soon the time came to the end of the year, and the city of Nanjing, which is located in the south of the Yangtze River, also rarely snowed heavily.

Standing in his own courtyard, Shen Yichen looked at the snowflakes falling in the air, he did not think that this was a beautiful scenery like a traditional literati, and he was poetic.

But it is very clear in my heart that the temperature in Nanjing City is getting lower and lower, which means that the temperature during the Xiaoice River period in the Ming Dynasty is getting more and more serious. Since then, natural disasters have been frequent, grain production has been greatly reduced, causing violent social unrest, and finally becoming one of the straws that crushed the Ming Dynasty.

Shen Yichen didn't have too much compassion in the past, but now that he is in this era, he occasionally wonders if he has the ability to turn things around and save the people?

"Chen'er, it's cold in the yard, hurry back to the house."

Seeing his son standing in the center of the courtyard admiring the snow, Shen shouted, if he got a cold or something, it would be a big deal.

"Okay, I'll go back."

Shen Yichen answered, and then walked into the house.

At this moment, a full table of Chinese New Year's Eve dinner has been prepared on the table, although the family situation is not relaxed, but the Shen family would rather treat themselves than their son to eat.

Therefore, the chicken, duck and fish are complete, so I want Shen Yichen to eat well, have a good body to study in the coming year, and make progress in the imperial examination.

The mother and son just sat at the dinner table, eating and chatting about some family things. It's just that most of the time, it is the mother Shen who is talking, and Shen Yichen is listening.

At the end of the meal, fireworks were set off outside the window, and the fireworks flashed in the air attracted the attention of the mother and son, and at the same time, both of them had their own thoughts.

When Shen Yichen saw the fireworks, he couldn't help but think of the night he was with Chen Qingtong on Nanshi Street, and since that night, he has never seen Chen Qingtong again, and he doesn't know how she is now.

And in Shen's heart, he thought that it was Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo.

"Chen'er, grandpa he went north to Mongolia, and now I don't know what to do."

The Shen family is not very clear about these family and country affairs, so they can only ask their son.

"I should have already left Beijing, and I will meet Wuliangha Sanwei soon."

If Shen Yichen is not mistaken, on the 11th day of the first month of the ninth year of orthodoxy, Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo, and the eunuch Seng Bao sent troops to Xifengkou, Xing'an Bo Xu Heng and the eunuch Cao Jixiang went out of Lingkou, the governor Chen Huaitong and the eunuch lived out of Gubeikou, and the governor Ma Liang and the eunuch Liu Yongcheng went out of Liujiakou, and each of them divided the elite soldiers to conquer and suppress them.

At the same time, the Mongol Tile Spur Department and the Jianzhou Wei of Liaodong also took the opportunity to encircle it, and finally defeated the Wuliang Ha Sanwei.

However, there were no major gains in this battle, only some of the population and livestock plundered by the Wuliang Ha Sanwei were recaptured, and even the cost of sending troops was not recovered.

And more importantly, the Wuliang Ha Sanwei, who was originally jumping left and right, completely fell to the Mongolian Tile Spur Department after this conquest, which laid a hidden danger for the future change of Tumubao.

It can be said that in the ninth year of orthodoxy, in this northern expedition to Wuliangha Sanwei, in addition to winning the battle in terms of face, the tactical and strategic perspective lost in a mess.

"The sword and gun have no eyes, and the grandfather is now older, and he is out fighting, so he must be careful to pay attention to his body."

Shen's face was full of worry, even if Chengguo Gong Zhu Yong was a "scumbag", she still didn't have the slightest grudge.

Shen Yichen couldn't say anything about this scene, emotionally he couldn't accept it, but intellectually he knew very well that this was the traditional thinking of women under the feudal etiquette system, following the father at home, marrying from the husband, and the husband from the son.

No matter what Zhu Yong did, even if he abandoned the Shen family, as long as he was alive, his mother had to obey this so-called "husband".

Even the original Shen Yichen's feelings for Zhu Yong are extremely complicated, with love and hate. Seriously, love is far more than hate, if Zhu Yong is willing to recognize his son, it is estimated that there will be no hatred.

"Don't worry, mother, grandpa will be fine."

Although the current Shen Yichen gradually no longer has those complicated feelings for Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo, but the relationship between his father and his father in blood cannot be severed, and it is always good to be safe and sound.

Hearing Shen Yichen's words, Shen nodded and didn't continue, but the worry in his eyes always lingered.

After the first month, from the north finally came the good news of Chengguogong's northern expedition to Mongolia, Zhu Yong defeated the Mongolian army twice in Fuyuchuan and Shuichuan, and was rewarded by the emperor, and was officially promoted to Taibao, ranking in the position of the third duke.

At the same time, Zhu Yong's title also reached its peak at this time, with Fengtian Jingnan's special title of Chengguo Gong, Governor of the Chinese Army, Doctor Ronglu of Special Jin, Right Pillar State, Taibao and so on.

Not counting knighthoods, there are many officials in it, and there are several titles of Zhengyipin that they look up to all their lives. It can be said that in addition to the royal family, Zhu Yong has achieved the status of one person and above ten thousand.

However, Shen Yichen knows very well how much water is in this so-called good news. But he didn't have the energy at the moment to pay attention to this kind of war that was far away in the sky, because the Tianfu County test for the ninth year of Ming orthodoxy was coming soon.

Not to mention Shen Yichen, the entire Chengguo Mansion Outer Courtyard School is filled with a tense atmosphere, just like the eve of the college entrance examination in later generations.

Many guys who usually don't learn and don't know how to do it, such as Li Da, began to temporarily pick up Buddha's feet, thinking that they could take shit luck in the county exam and be admitted to a children's show or something.

After school that day, Shen Yichen did not go home directly, but went to his study according to Li Tingxiu's instructions.

The table and the furnishings are still the same, Li Tingxiu is sitting in front of the desk, and Shen Yichen salutes after coming in: "Sir, the student has arrived." ”

"Hmm."

Li Tingxiu nodded and said, "Yichen, do you know why the teacher called you over?" ”

"The student probably guessed that it was about the county exam."

"That's right, there are still more than ten days to take the county exam, and I have a few words to entrust you for the teacher."

"Sir, please."

"Is it all in place to get out of the way?"

The so-called guarantee means that all students who participate in the county examination need to go to the county hall to apply for the examination and fill in their own nationality, name, age, three generations of resumes, physical appearance and other information.

In addition, it is also necessary to marry with five students in the same examination, and find a student from the county as a guarantor. Ensure that all the information is true, not the children and grandchildren of prostitutes, You, soap, and subordinates, and are not in the period of mourning of their parents, before they are allowed to register for the exam.

It is not the first time that Shen Yichen has participated in the county examination, to be precise, he has been involved in every county examination, so these preliminary preparations are easy and have already been done.

"Mr. Hui, it's all in order."

"Can there be a backup of pen, ink, paper, and inkstone?"

In the scientific examination, pen, ink, paper and inkstone is a detail that cannot be ignored, once there is a problem in the examination room, it is really called every day, called the earth is not spiritual.

It's impossible for you to knock on the "number house" next door, and then say: "Big brother, borrow your pen and ink." ”

If there is such a move, the examination room will be expelled and never hired. If it is a serious fraud, then there is really a possibility of charging the army and killing the head.

Therefore, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and other stationery supplies must be prepared, and there must be a backup of redundancy.

"Mr. Hui, it's all ready."

"Can you know how to prepare for winter clothes and food?"

Shen Yichen replied seriously in the first two answers, but when Li Tingxiu asked this, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

This is completely different from the previous image of a strict teacher, just like an old mother, even starting to worry about dressing and eating.

"What's so ridiculous?"

"Sir, have you forgotten how many times I took the county exam?"

Hearing this, Li Tingxiu was stunned for a moment, it may be that Shen Yichen's performance has been too good recently, and he has forgotten that this kid used to be a "habitual offender" who couldn't even pass the exam as a child.

"Ahem."

At this time, Li Tingxiu coughed twice to hide his embarrassment.

"Listening to your words for the teacher, it seems that you are still proud after many exams?"

"Mr. Hui, there is no ......"

Seeing that Shen Yichen was honest, Li Tingxiu felt that he had saved a little bit of his dignity as a teacher, so he said: "Yichen, unlike in the past, this time in terms of knowledge, being a teacher is not worried about you. ”

"But there is no definite number for the imperial examination, and the teacher only hopes to see you nominated for the red case."

The list of Zhongjinshi is called the gold list and the emperor list, and the list of Zhongxiucai is generally called the draft and the red case. Li Tingxiu asked Shen Yichen to come over this time, he had no other hope, he just hoped to see his student high school.

"The students will live up to the expectations of the gentleman."

Shen Yichen bowed very formally, and from Li Tingxiu's lovely questions, he knew very well in his heart that this was the teacher's nervousness and attention to him.

In a sense, Li Tingxiu is not only Shen Yichen's academic teacher, but also a mentor in life. With his deeds, words and deeds, he understood what is called the way of the teacher, the virtue of the teacher, and the soul of the teacher.
