Master, please shut up!

Jun Yan and Tang Mohan went out of the palace and returned to the National Teacher's Mansion, and they didn't mention the secret language overnight.After two or three days, Emperor Kang Ping's strategy had already begun to work.The day before yesterday, a piece of news came out among the students: Today, because the Northwest Army of Da Ming came out a few years ago, it wiped out the Tocharians who came to provoke them from time to time, and now the Tocharians are just a tribe belonging to Da Ming.After Da Ming occupied Tocharian, he continued to help the tribesmen of Tocharian.Although the time is not long, the people don't care who the superior is.As long as you can truly benefit the people, you are a real leader.

Therefore, in just over half a year, the people of the Tocharian tribe gradually began to change their original hatred of Da Ming.Da Ming treats them equally. Although it is said that he has not led for a long time, in fact, the life of the entire Tocharian tribe has begun to change.

Therefore, Emperor Kang Ping felt that the territory of Da Ming could still be expanded, and the importance of military officers was even more prominent.Therefore, this year's liberal arts examination does not plan to admit too many Jinshi, but plans to increase the number of candidates for the martial arts exam.

As soon as this news came out, there was an uproar in the entire scholarly community!Although Da Ming said that he started as a warrior, how can he say that the governance of the country should be both civil and military.If it turns out to be as rumored, this is a harbinger of the decline of the imperial examinations!As students, how many people can not worry about their future?The students in the entire capital were panicked because of this rumor.

But before we can tell whether this rumor is true or false, another rumor suddenly arises in the whole capital: the number of people who are recruiting scholars from the current subject and Jinshi will indeed be reduced.This is not because Jinshang puts more emphasis on literature than martial arts, but because Jinshang discovered that some students misbehaved during private interviews on Weibo.Therefore, I feel that the academic ability of the students is important, and the character is equally important.So I decided to ask the imperial guards to investigate the character of the famous students on the apricot list before the imperial examination.After the investigation, confirm the number of people admitted to the apricot list.

This is much more believable than the one that emphasizes civility over military affairs, which led to a decrease in the number of scholars.Just like this, the students in the entire capital began to ask around, who did what was seen by His Majesty, which actually aroused such great dissatisfaction with the students.This kind of person should be cleared out of Shilin!At the same time, these students also began to reflect on themselves, whether they have done anything they shouldn't have done since they came to Beijing.But now, I don't know who the people sent by His Majesty are, and who they will notice. Naturally, each of them began to restrain themselves and the people around them even more.

For a while, the atmosphere among the students in the capital was good.Although it is inevitable that there will be some small conflicts, things always stop at the right time, and it leads to a calming atmosphere in the entire capital, which is really gratifying!Of course, this is also a story.

What's more, there are even rumors that some students bribe officials, and they are suspected of forming cliques for personal gain before they enter the officialdom.Today, it has been confirmed that those who are suspected of forming a party will not be hired for ten years.

This rumor was only spread in a small area at first, but gradually it became the most spread among these rumors.In fact, think about it, these rumors are even rumors, but they are groundless, not necessarily without reason.So there should be a reason.

The students in other places didn't feel anything, but they were a little panicked.But the Jiangnan students who had heard the rumors among them were restless.The previous rumor was only spread among them, and now the clues in these rumors point to Jiangnan students, they are secretly speculating in their hearts.The one who said that he knew something bad about the students today, and what he couldn't say was that they spread rumors before.

The students in Jiangnan had a secret in their hearts, but they dared not admit it.Now the students in the capital are looking for the source of the matter.If he knew the plan of the Jiangnan students before, he might think that they were the culprits.In fact, they don't have any foundation in their hearts. Is it because what they did before really annoyed His Majesty?Thinking about how they secretly planned before, if their well-known Jiangnan students were really not admitted, they must demonstrate against the Ministry of Rites, and they must give them an explanation for Jiangnan students today!

Thinking about it now, that was really too reckless.Now some brains are starting to think about what happened back then.At that time, it seemed to be a moment of anger, but without these things now, who knows what they would do when the apricot list is revealed!

No matter what all parties think, anyway, the pool of water in the capital city has been muddy enough to be muddy.This is a good thing, at least many Jiangnan students have regained their ability to think.

When Jun Yan saw these rumors spread, he was surprised by the reaction of the entire capital's scholar community.Ginger is still old and spicy!People spread these rumors today, true or false, the students are not stupid, they will naturally think.And what happens after that depends on how that person prepares to deal with it.

Rubbing Qi Xiao's ears, Jun Yan subconsciously pulled the long hair on the back of Xiao Xiao's neck.It's winter, and the fur is thicker, and it's quite warm...

After thinking about it, Jun Yan's thinking went astray.

Qi Xiao has no love in life.Their Twolegs have been clinging to it since the weather got cold.That surnamed Tang's eyes are like a knife every day, does he pretend that he doesn't see it?Isn't it because it is a single dog?If you have the ability to talk to their Twolegs, you will know how to threaten the dog!

No matter how Xiaoxiao complained in her heart, she still obediently let their Twolegs rub it.

"What are you thinking about?" Tang Mohan came in from the door with a bag in his hand.

"It's okay, isn't this boring? What are you holding?" Looking at the size and shape of the bag, it should look like a jar.Just don't know what's inside.

Tang Mohan took off his cloak, warmed his hands on the warm cage, and handed the bag to Jun Yan: "Didn't you say you wanted to eat dried fruit during the Chinese New Year a few days ago? I asked someone to look for it from the northwest. Remember There is almond wood in Xinjiang today, which is the almond kernel. When people asked, there were indeed a lot, so they picked some back. It was just fried today, try it?"

Jun Yan heard the words, and took the bag happily.Sure enough, there is a porcelain jar inside, what is it if it is not peeled almond wood?What a surprise!

I reached out and grabbed it, tasted it, and it turned out to be milky.Jun Yan was surprised: "How did you do it?"

"Like it?" Seeing Junyan nodding, Tang Mohan smiled: "It's good if you like it. It's worth it. I worked so hard to find an old craftsman who makes roasted seeds and nuts to research it for you. How can you thank me?" As he spoke, he leaned closer to Junyan.

But before the two of them approached, a huge...dog head suddenly came in between them~

Caught off guard, Tang Mohan touched the smiling dog's head with the tip of his nose, and his face turned dark immediately.

"Hahahaha~" Jun Yan looked at the one person and one dog who hated each other, feeling extremely happy in his heart.I thought that the two of them had a good relationship, but who knew that it was still such a virtue.

"Still laughing!" Pulling away Qi Xiao's dog's head, Tang Mohan grabbed the peach kernels and gave it to him. Qi Xiao gave him a slightly disgusted look, and finally stopped making trouble.Hmph, don't give it something delicious to eat, and still want to take advantage of their Twolegs, has it agreed?

"Okay, okay, stop making trouble." Jun Yan waved his hand, and stuffed a peach kernel into Tang Mohan's mouth, Tang Mohan ate it with disgust.He doesn't like this kind of sweet and fragrant things very much.But what their family Shaoyue gave, of course they wanted to eat.

"Your Majesty has already made a move, why don't we add more fire?" If the rumors about the Jiangnan students spread before, I don't know how the students from other places will respond.

"What are you going to do?" Tang Mohan didn't care about these things.Jiangnan students are indeed full of talents, but an intricate network of relationships has been formed over the years, and the entire Jiangnan is almost out of His Majesty's control, which is not a good thing.Besides, that person has been working for many years, and I don't know how many officials, students, and great Confucians who were born in the south of the Yangtze River belong to the other party?

Thinking about the multiple families entrenched in Jiangnan, and the huge marriage network of those families, no wonder His Majesty will have a headache.

"Let's find someone to spread the rumors among Jiangnan students before." Although too many people will be involved at once, but when the apricot list comes out, it will be cleared up.As for those who participated, even those who could be regarded as organizers, should he show mercy?

After thinking about it, he understood the key point, and Tang Mohan nodded in response: "Okay."

As a result, before all kinds of rumors were confirmed to be true or false, new rumors came out: There was a saying among Jiangnan students before that the emperor was planning to suppress the Jiangnan scholar Lin, so it was preparing to reduce the number of Jiangnan scholars.Jiangnan students believed in it without proof.Therefore, I am very disappointed with this year's students, so I plan to reduce the number of candidates.

As soon as this statement came out, the students who were already in panic finally had an outlet to vent their emotions.It's just that they are all students after all, and no matter what kind of rumors they are, they are all rumors, and no one has any evidence.Therefore, most of the Jiangnan students met those who spoke in a strange way, and even pointed at Sang and scolded Huai.But after all, as a scholar, there is nothing to do for the time being.

This situation continued until the end of March, and the apricot list will be announced soon.

Because the results of those who won the examination are announced at the time when the apricot blossoms bloom, the list of the examination is also called the apricot list.The apricot list is usually announced at the end of March and the beginning of April. Soon after the list is announced, it is the day of the palace examination.

After Emperor Kangping ascended the throne, the imperial examinations were held many times.In the past, most of the top 220 scholars were selected.The top three are Jinshi Jidi; the fourth to twenty are Jinshi origin; the rest are awarded the same Jinshi origin.In previous years, more than [-] scholars were selected, but the number of those who failed is not known.I don't know what to do this time?Everyone was apprehensive, and finally waited until the apricot list was posted.

On the twenty-ninth day, at the right time, the sound of drums and gongs was heard from the imperial city all the way to Zhuque Street and Guanglufang.The messenger in red held the imperial list with both hands and posted it on the wall.

This year's list is also interesting, and it was posted all at once, unlike previous years, where it was posted from the back to the front.So at first glance, what everyone saw was the name of the top three and the first.

"The champion is actually him! How could it be? Where is our young master? Why is there no young master?" A school boy of a Jiangnan student went from front to back, and then from back to front. name.

how come?how come?Thinking of his young master's temperament, the little bookboy looked ashamed, and stood in front of the list, letting the people behind him crowd and push him.

Once the apricot list comes out, everything is basically a foregone conclusion!How many families are happy and how many are sad?

The author has something to say:

National Teacher (face with emotion): Most of the students are sincere~ I think back then...

General: What?

National Teacher (covering his face): Back then, Country J was a demon, so I went to protest with others!I also heard that someone smashed up their shop...

General (interested): And then?

National Teacher: There is no more... Anyway, the country has to pay, I really regret it!

General: That's right, they should be very happy, otherwise they have to worry about not being able to sell it!

National Teacher: ... Friends are exhausted!Love to death!

General: ...I was wrong~~

Why!Thinking back to those years, I feel that we are really passionate!In fact, it’s just like LT, it’s fine if you don’t mobilize and buy it~

However, some things are indeed silly now, but they are also proof of youth, aren't they?Bahahahaha~
