Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Disadvantages of the Imperial Examination
After hurriedly saying goodbye to Bai Fu, Fei Chen walked out of the door with pride, and when he happened to go out, he saw a Confucian bachelor, who was looking at the Gongzi's Mansion in front of him with hatred at the moment, his fists clenched, and he could feel the resentment of this person from afar.
And at this moment, Feichen was going out with one foot, and happened to see the young man standing in front of the door, but Feichen didn't care much, after all, he didn't want to stay in Gongzi's Mansion for a moment at this moment, and if he could come out at this moment, he was naturally bent on "escaping". It's just that before he is ready to go up the mountain, he still plans to tell the pride behind him, after all, tomorrow is of great significance to him, but it is not okay to ask more.
"Pride! When you go to the Ministry of Officials tomorrow, remember to wait for me at the Anjia Beef Shop in Chu Dao, I will appear there, and the hour is."
I only heard that Fei Chen hadn't reported the time yet, but the rest of the words were suddenly stuck in his throat, not that someone suddenly wanted to kill him, but when he shouted his proud name, the young man behind him said in unison with the young man standing in front of the door:
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
Hearing the same words but in a different tone, a trace of surprise flashed in Fei Chen's eyes, but fortunately he didn't hesitate for too long, and the young man in front of the door seemed to understand that Fei Chen was not shouting him, and wanted to leave with a cold snort, but as soon as he heard that Fei Chen and another proud person with the same name and surname as himself were going to the Ministry of Officials tomorrow, he thought that Bai Fu, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, was not the chief examiner of this year's scientific examination?
And Fei Chen was about to continue talking, but he felt a strange gaze from elsewhere, and involuntarily turned around again, just as the two looked at each other, a trace of doubt flashed in Fei Chen's eyes, but a trace of struggle flashed in Yu Proud's eyes, and a trace of doubt flashed on Fei Chen's body behind Fei Chen.
"Dare to ask Mr. Tomorrow, but you are going to the Ministry of Officials?"
Hearing Yu Pride suddenly speak, although Fei Chen felt a little surprised, he did not treat him indifferently, but nodded, which can be regarded as the words of Yu Pride, and Yu Pride saw Fei Chen nodding, and hurriedly asked again:
"That gentleman is the secretary of the ministry, and the white lord meets?"
Hearing Yu Proud's second question, Fei Chen still nodded, in fact, he didn't have to be like this, after all, if he found someone on the street to ask Fei Chen's question, Fei Chen had to answer, how tired did Fei Chen have to be?
Yu Pride saw that Fei Chen was still nodding, and hurriedly shouted out the third question.
"Is that for the imperial examination?"
Hearing this question, Chen Pride, who was already a little sensitive, couldn't help but clench his hands, his nails were deeply imprinted in the palm prints, and Feichen continued to nod, indicating that it was just as Yu Pride guessed.
"Sir, may you replace. Can you submit a letter of recommendation on behalf of Yu? Yu is grateful.."
Yu Pride said this, as if choked in his throat, he called pride, and naturally had the arrogance of a literati and ink writer in his bones, but unfortunately his family background was not prosperous, and he even wanted to be expelled from the private school several times, if he had to be protected by the teacher, I was afraid that he would not even be able to complete his studies, but the teacher was only an old scholar after all, and he had no position, so he could only rely on his own thoughts of teaching in the private school for too long, and some feelings only allowed him to stay, and these grievances and loneliness, no one could understand and understand, cold wind and snowy days, there was no warm clothes, not to mention the warm fire was even more extravagant, and he Yu Proud never gave up the idea of studying for a momentIf it weren't for the fact that there were still two acres of thin land at home that could be sold cheaply, and I was afraid that the children and books that were hired temporarily would not be able to bring them, but so what? After all, he was proud to complete a north-south journey from the Great Chu to the Great Zhou, and to the northernmost Yan country! This was what he wanted to prove his determination, but because there was no recommender for the imperial examination, his hard work for more than ten years of hard study in the cold window was blocked and he could not take a step forward? He refused! He did not complain! That's why today he came to Gongzi's Mansion with the last family name left to him by his family, wanting to see someone! That was Bai Fu, who had been a brother and brother to Fei Chen before! Yu proudly understood that as long as Bai Fu agreed to participate in the scientific examination, then he would definitely be able to rely on his own literary talent to win a place in this Great Chu Literary Examination! But the world is silent! Yu Pride came to the gate of the Gongzi's Mansion early, but he didn't wait for Bai Fu, the secretary of the ministry, but was sneered at by the other clans, and when Bai Fu came, he couldn't take a step forward because of his low status, so he could only watch Bai Fu enter the gate of the Gongzi's Mansion with his eyes, and he could only stand at the door and wait. At this time, there was a new hope in his eyes, because at this moment, the person standing in front of the gate, although Yu Pride didn't know what the background of this person was, but the person who could come out of the Gongzi's Mansion could be simple? In addition, he looked at the sword in Fei Chen's hand, although he was not familiar with the way of the sword, but just by looking at the decoration on the scabbard, he understood that Fei Chen's origin was extraordinary!
When Fei Chen heard Yu Pride's third question, he didn't nod in a hurry, but looked at Yu Pride in front of him and asked:
"If you are allowed to participate in the scientific expedition, how will you manage the water, soil and people of one party in the future?"
Fei Chen's words, Yu Pride was a little speechless, not that he hadn't thought about it, but at the moment he didn't know why Fei Chen had such a question, after all, the deep meaning in these words, Yu Pride didn't understand, people are like this many times, it is easy to think about simple things complicated.
"Just answer my question. I only have one question, tell me what you're going to do?"
In fact, at this moment, Fei Chen didn't know why he would say such a question for Yu to answer, but in Fei Chen's heart, he was thinking, and only this question was what he wanted to ask the most. All over the world, the vast number of students want to be the person who is at the top of the imperial examination, but if it is about their talents, each has its own merits, but if the mind is full of books and no people, then what can such an official do? Since Feichen is already a Chu person at this moment, then he must ask questions to the Great Chu, instead of...
"I... If you become an official, the first thing you should do is to suggest that you improve the imperial examination system, abolish the method of recommending people, and instead use the three examinations to judge the people!
Hearing Yu Pride's words, Fei Chen wanted to shake his head in denial, but this idea was quickly dispelled by him, after all, it is a good thing for a person to have an ideal, but if this ideal is too full, it will hurt himself, in fact, many people have not considered it.
Seeing that Feichen was silent at the moment, Yu Proud looked a little anxious, and hurriedly explained:
"Sir, listen to me! There is something wrong with this imperial examination system! The recommendation system alone is a big roadblock that has been laid on the way for the poor people in the world to enter the imperial court! It must be clear that if the examination is held every three years and the reading is read every ten years, if it is only recommended by the people who recommend it, then what if more talented people are not recommended at all? Do you just bury it? Then why is it necessary to set up this imperial examination? It is only for the eyes of the people above the court? In the vast world, the princes of the world will laugh at it with new things? If the cold family is allowed to enter the court, why should we stop it more?
Yu Hao did not choose to change the topic to something else at this moment, but solemnly said his own point of view, which is also his heart's voice, and it is also the voice of all the people who read books in the world! If the world is from a poor family, and it is chosen for the sake of luck, then why add a person who recommends it? What if there is no one from a poor family to recommend it?
"Good!"
Chen Proud listened to Yu Proud's words at this moment, but he couldn't help but whisper a good word! This is not that he thinks Yu Proud is right! But he really said that all the poor men in the world are in the heart of the earth, and just the cold door is for reading, and if you add the recommended people, then wouldn't it be that the children of the poor family have no way out? Moreover, the imperial examination is once every three years, and those who took the examination before are not allowed to retake the examination for ten years! The person who has the energy to study for ten years in the world?
And at this moment, Fei Chen looked at the proud young man in front of him, but he couldn't help but regret a little in his heart, why did he ask this question, after all, for this kind of thing, he has always been a layman who has only heard of it, not really participated in it, if he really wants to talk about the master of this matter, Fei Chen feels that Wang is far away in Dazhou, and Wang bluntly said that Mr. Wang should be the first! If he is here, today's question of Yu Pride will inevitably get a satisfactory answer, and the second is to come to Chudi Yuntai with himself.Although Fei Chen still doesn't know what the ability of Yun Tai is, but since it is Jun Daochang and I who want it by name, it will naturally not be easy! However, unfortunately, these two people are not here at the moment, and they can't give Yu Pride a good answer, and Fei Chen is also a little tired and knocked his head with his hand, and after a long time, he slowly spoke:
"That's it! You wait for me tomorrow with the pride behind me at Anjia Beef Point, and the hour will be at the end of the hour, and it is estimated that Brother Baifu is also in the Ministry of Officials at this moment, and it was not a nuisance in the past! But there is one thing I have to explain to you! Don't think I'm lying to you at that time! That is why I can't guarantee that I will be able to participate in the imperial examination! After all, if it comes to my local recommendation quota, I have already given it to this little brother behind me, I'm afraid I can't give it to you anymore! But if Lord Bai thinks it's okay, then it's fine! Okay?"
Hearing Feichen's words, Yu Proud was suddenly a little overjoyed, his two eyes widened, and his excitement was even more than words!
