The students quieted down, followed the instructions of the celebrant on the side, washed their hands in a copper basin, and then sprinkled some water on their shoes and hats to complete the "guàn" washing ceremony.

Then they entered the Pan Pond in an orderly manner, crossed the wall bridge, and came to the main hall of the school palace, the Confucius Palace. Under the guidance of the celebrant, the new students entered the temple.

The two sides of the statue of the Holy Prophet in the main hall have been full of former students, the front row is the Dian Sheng, the number is only more than fifty people, the back is the Zengsheng, about fifty, a little less than the Dian Sheng, and then the epiphytes, about five hundred, all the way to the back of the side hall.

For Lingzhou Fuxue, there is no limit to the number of epiphytes, as long as they are students, they can come in if they pay enough money and food.

Hyperplasia is generally filled by those who excel in the examination in the school among the epiphytes, which belongs to the additional number of students, and the number of students is naturally less than that of students.

And Lingzhou Fuxue has a person in the township examination every time, as little as three or five, and as many as seven, eight or ninety, which shows that the teaching level is high, so it is very attractive to students from other places.

The new students came to the middle of the main hall and stood facing the statue of the Holy Prophet. Qin Chuan naturally stood at the front, and the left and right were the second to fifth places in the college examination.

After that, it is time to wait for the arrival of the new prefect of Lingzhou, when everyone will pay homage to the statue of the Holy Prophet.

When he greeted Wang Fu just now, Qin Chuan learned that the new prefect's surname was Zhou, who was originally the prefect of Huaning Mansion and a close friend of Xiaoqian's father in the same year.

Originally, Nie Zhixian had the hope of being promoted to the prefect of Lingzhou, but Xiaoqian fell ill recently, and Nie Zhixian only had such a beloved daughter, who had no intention of political affairs, and took Xiaoqian to find a famous doctor.

However, it is still surprising that the Zhou prefect was transferred to become the prefect of Lingzhou, although the Lingzhou Mansion is the provincial capital, in fact, many prefects from other places are unwilling to come over to be the prefect.

There is a saying that "three lives are unfortunate, and the county is attached to Guo; Three lives do evil, attached to the provincial city of Guo; The evil is full of evil, attached to Guo Jingcheng. ”

Although the prefect is much better than the prefect of the provincial capital attached to Guo, it still has to be subject to a lot of constraints, unlike the prefect in a foreign country, and it is no different from the emperor of the soil.

What's more, the provincial government has a lot to do with it, and if it is done well, the credit is from above, and if it is not done well, the pot is from below.

Governor Zhou came from Huaning Mansion to take up his post, and this situation is really rare in officialdom, generally speaking, most of them offend people from above.

As for Nie Zhixian's promotion to the prefect, in the end, he was promoted, even if he was not as happy as the emperor of the next county, maybe it was always a good thing to be promoted.

Qin Chuan is not particularly keen on these things in officialdom, and he is a little entangled in his heart now. Later, he will worship the statue of the Holy Master, and it should not be a problem like him worshipping the Land Temple.

There is a high probability that there are no accidents. After all, the Holy Master was a saint in the Middle Ages, and in the words of Tixue, he was like the Daomen Tianzun and the Buddha Shakti.

Compared with Zhengcun, the land god is just a firefly.

After a cup of tea, someone shouted: "The prefect has arrived!" ”

Under normal circumstances, the prefect, as the person with the highest status in the government, is often late, making people wait for a long time, and the time for a cup of tea has arrived, which shows that the prefect of Zhou is quite neat and neat, which is different from the officials who generally value authority.

When everyone in the hall heard the shouting, they all bowed in the direction of the prefect. Everyone present, at the very least, is a student, don't look at the inconspicuous student in the main hall, put it in the following states and counties, that is also a bit of face.

Moreover, the student has the privilege of not kneeling in the official, and this alone has made many businessmen with a little wealth envious.

Therefore, whenever the imperial court opened a prison for donation, those merchants and landlords who had no merit responded most positively, just to have the status of a prisoner and enjoy the privilege of being exempt from kneeling when seeing officials. Among them, the inmates are eligible to participate in the township examination, but it is secondary.

I saw Governor Zhou wearing a crimson official robe and walked in accompanied by a professor of Fuxue. Qin Chuan glanced at it, and saw that this person's face was very majestic, and his steps were as accurate as a ruler to walk in front of the statue of the Holy Master, and then stood still.

So the celebrant said in a loud voice, "Bow to the Holy Teacher." ”

Under the leadership of Governor Zhou, everyone respectfully saluted towards the statue of the Holy Master.

In this process, Qin Chuan naturally saluted with everyone.

But his heart fluctuated.

Just now, when he worshipped the statue of the Holy Master, a white light suddenly flashed in front of his eyes, and from the statue of the Holy Master, its light was bright and dazzling, like the sun, and shot into his body.

Immediately, in his mud pill palace, the phantom of a pen actually appeared, emitting a faint and seemingly indelible white light.

The righteousness of Confucianism!

He understood almost instantly that it was the heroic righteousness of Confucianism.

Worship the statue of the holy master of the house, and there is actually a phantom shadow of a pen in his mud pill palace, and there is also the heroic righteousness of Confucianism on it.

This change caught Qin Chuan off guard.

He instinctively sensed that the pen seemed to have reached the point of exhaustion, and shot into his body, as if grasping at a life-saving straw, to find himself a place to live.

After the phantom entered the Qinchuan Mud Pill Palace, in addition to emitting a faint white light, it fell into silence, this situation Qin Chuan was not unfamiliar, and the situation of the immortal Dao species was better than this phantom.

It's just that the Immortal Dao Seed needs to absorb the aura in order to recover.

What does the phantom of this pen need to get out of silence, is it Haoran righteousness?

Qin Chuan's heart fluctuated slightly, and his face did not change and followed the public, completing the entrance ceremony of the school.

Qin Chuan is very unfamiliar with the phantom of this pen in his body, as well as his righteousness.

Among the people he knew, perhaps only the mention of learning could solve his doubts.

Qin Chuan was like a distracted student, he couldn't see anything on his face, but in his heart, he kept pondering about the matter of the pen in the Mud Pill Palace.

In addition, the admission process is coming to an end, and now it is the lecture of the Zhou Governor, there is a lot of verbosity in front, and Qin Chuan didn't listen to it, but the last paragraph drew Qin Chuan's attention back,

"Only with sincerity and sincerity can the article be full of flesh and blood and give birth to the heroic righteousness of my Confucianism. If you are only making a fuss about the imperial examination, you don't know what it means to be righteous and upright, and your achievements will be limited throughout your life. When he said this, he paused slightly, "Of course, the world pursues differences. It's not wrong to bother with the imperial examination and chase fame. It's just that what you can pursue in this world is far more than the word fame, and I hope that one day you will be able to understand it. ”

The students next to him all felt that Governor Zhou was talking about the truth.

But Qin Chuan, who had just encountered a sudden change, listened to the words of Zhou Zhifu, and had a faint feeling in his heart, especially Haoran's righteousness, which hit his curiosity.

It's a pity that he is not familiar with Zhou Zhifu.

Qin Chuan did not make a special move, and Zhou Zhifu did not give special treatment in front of everyone because of Qin Chuan's identity as a little Sanyuan, in his opinion, entering the government school is a new starting point, for scholars, or don't indulge in past achievements.

The ceremony was finally over, and everyone walked out of the main hall.
