After the Lantern Festival, the rich New Year atmosphere in the capital slowly dissipated. The imperial court yamen, schools, shops, restaurants, teahouses, and hotels opened one after another. The streets gradually became prosperous. Groups of scholars, speaking accents from all over the country, could be seen everywhere in the capital.

In late January, the Ministry of Rites issued a document to inform the world that the Bingchen Department of Rites was scheduled to be held on February 21. At this time, about 3,000 tribute students and tribute students who took the exam had arrived in the capital. They were preparing to take the exam.

Because the Emperor and Zhou army pacified the Western Regions before the New Year, they suppressed the Western Regions and the imperial court reopened the Silk Road. The goods from the Western Regions in the capital gradually increased. There were more small countries that paid tribute and met the emperor. The envoys of the small countries were walking on the streets of Zhengyangmen in strange clothes, paying homage to the sky, and the imperial capital of the country up to the upward country was majestic, prosperous and powerful.

Since the Han and Tang Dynasties, the Chinese dynasty, which stood in the east, once again conquered the Western countries after nearly a thousand years. (The Song and Ming Dynasties did not obtain the Western Regions. The Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties were not our race.) The glory of Chinese civilization has once again shone on the vast land and rivers in the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains.

Confucius said: If the barbarians enter China, then the Chinese will be in China. If the Chinese enter the barbarians, then the barbarians will be in China.

China has great etiquette, so it is called Xia, and the beauty of the clothes and seals is called Hua. Therefore, it is called Hua.

In late January, Hu Er drew his sword and injured people in a downtown outside Chongwen Gate in Nancheng. He was the prince guard of the Wusun Kingdom. Grand Secretary He Shuo ordered the Nancheng Military Office to arrest him. More than 20 people were killed in the Western City. He sent envoys to question the King of Wusun.

If the people of the glorious and superior country are guilty, the officials asked him how could they be humiliated by Hu'er? Is our swords not good? Is our guns not good?

Xishi was the place where the Zhou Dynasty killed people and executed people. Caishikou, the pseudo-Qing Dynasty, was similar to it. On that day, the people in the capital gathered in Xishi and applauded. Since then, Hu envoys and Hu Er have followed the "Da Zhou Law" in the capital and followed the customs of the Han Dynasty and did not dare to rely on their personal force to be arrogant and domineering.

Mr. He’s governing style is undoubtedly revealed.

After the report of the literary weekly magazine "Hanyuan Wenhua", which belongs to the Hanlin Academy, was published, and there was a lot of praise in the Shilin. Under the auspiciousness of Jia Huan, "Hanyuan Wenhua" has been changed from a bimonthly to a weekly magazine.

The Emperor Zhou settled the Central Plains, and was mixed in one place, surpassing three generations and anecdotes of the Han and Tang dynasties. The sky and the earth were everywhere, and the concubines were all unfaithful. The disrespectful kings of foreign countries captured them alive; the barbarian invaders and plundered them. This is the style that a great country should have!

The imperial court reopened the land Silk Road, silk, tea and other goods from Chang'an, passed through the three lines of north and south, gathered in Zhangye, Jiuquan, and Guazhou in Dunhuang, and went out of the Western Regions. Nowadays, the prosperous sea trade is basically concentrated in Guangzhou. Guangzhou is rich enough to compete with the country. However, there are places where sea trade cannot reach, and seasonal. The land Silk Road also has considerable profits.

The capital was not the center of the Silk Road on land or the Silk Road on sea. It could not be as prosperous as Chang'an during the Tang Dynasty. However, it was the political center. When the imperial and Zhou Dynasty won a series of victories in the foreign wars, many people came to see the name. Or, something came. The capital with a population of about three million showed its vitality and charm.

The spring of the 14th year of Yongzhi came quietly in a light rain with a chilly spring cold.

In the west of the capital, at the foot of Miaofeng Mountain, Dongzhuang Town, known as the pearl of the west of the capital, was soaked in light rain. In the town, cars came and went, and it was extremely prosperous. The imperial examination was approaching, and Dongzhuang Town, which is famous for its education industry, communicated frequently with scholars.

In addition, the emperor believed in King Wu very much. King Wu was a friend of Master Zhichen, the host of Tantuo Temple on Miaofeng Mountain. The Princess of Wu believed in Buddhism. The King of Wu always brought his family and his children to Tantuo Temple. Some people in the capital were attracted by their reputation to make friends with Master Zhichen.

The incense at Tantuo Temple is very popular, and the temple has been repaired more magnificently in recent years. The Buddha needs to wear gold.

The world-renowned Wendao Academy is located at the foot of the mountain. The drizzle is scattered in the woods, courtyards, and pavilions. Compared with the lively town, the college is very quiet. This is mainly due to the planning of the town by Xianheng Trading, which controls the administration of Dongzhuang Town and the commercial power of Xianheng Trading Company. The surrounding area of ​​Wendao Academy is a residential area. The center of the town is several miles away from the academy.

In a school where Tong Sheng, a professor in the old campus, a handsome young man was restless and flirted with the "Academic Lecture Notes", his eyes were dull and absent-minded.

The boy was about eleven or twelve years old, with a beautiful appearance, wearing an exquisite white long gown, a sweat towel made of silk on his waist, a jade pendant, and a precious folding fan with sandalwood in his fan bag. You can tell at a glance that he was from a noble family.

Wendao Academy no longer built the academy more than ten years ago by mountain director Zhang Anbo. After the flood reconstruction in the ninth year of Yongzhi, with the establishment of Xianheng Trading Company, a large amount of funds flowed into the academy every year.

In addition, the second president Ye Hongyun was determined to reform and adopted many suggestions from Jia Huan. At this time, Wendao Academy was already the top academy in the country. It had a library, a printing house, a playground, a canteen, etc., similar to the configuration of a modern university.

There are also professors, lecturers, etc., equipped with houses and paid salaries. Dozens of colleges, large and small in the capital, and a large number of excellent teachers have been transferred to Wendao Academy. Among them, there are many people with Jinshi fame.

In addition to the classics, the academy also has courses such as arithmetic, criminal name, money, money, management, business, engineering, etc. If you do not intend to take the imperial examination, you can transfer these courses. You can also take the optional courses. After graduation, some enter the Xianheng Trading Company. There are a lot of talents in it. Some serve as staff for teachers' official friends. Some go to other businesses to make a living.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Zhongwendao Academy, the state, the government, and the private colleges of the country are the best, and they are the leader in the academic level of teaching Tong Sheng and scholar.

Therefore, there are many powerful and noble children entering school. There are many students like Xiuyi Young Man.

Wendao Academy has multiple channels for recruiting students. Generally speaking, there are two types. The powerful and noble children can pay 500 taels of silver to attend school. The rest are based on qualifications. There are enrollment exams. There are scholarships in the school.

The school style is rigorous, and heroes are judged by articles and exam results. It is similar to the modern combination of public primary and secondary schools.

At the desk, the young man's friend wrote a note and asked, "Jia Lan, what's wrong with you? You'll have to have a county trial in two days."

In the spring of the 14th year of Yongzhi, while the Ministry of Rites held a trial to determine the Wengui of the world, all prefectures and counties in the world held the first three tests of the Tongsheng Examination: the county test.

The boys who are still studying in Wendao Academy are basically candidates from Wanping and Daxing counties. Those who have a long journey have returned to the county. The Jia Mansion is located in the west of the inner city of the capital and belongs to Wanping County. The county examination is scheduled for February 12th.

Jia Lan thought for a while, took the pen on the paper, and replied: "My mother is here in Dongzhuang Town today."

In November, the prince coup and the Jia family suffered a great disaster. Fortunately, Uncle Huan sent troops back to survive. He was very worried about his mother. He returned to the mansion and stayed for a few days, and sent his mother to the academy to study. He knew that his mother: I hope her son will become a success!

During the Spring Festival, with the current power of the Jia family, there were many guests in front of the door, and the interactions between friends from the world, drinking and performing operas, the mansion was too lively. He only lived in the mansion for five days before returning to the academy to study. At this time, he missed his mother a little.

The lovely mother's hand is in the clothes of the wandering son. Who says that the heart of a grass can repay the spring sunshine?

…

…

The rain drifts.

The professor's courtyard area in the new community of Wendao Academy, and the residence of the dean Ye Hongyun. In the open pavilion, several scholars gathered: Gongsun Liang, Luo Xiangyang, Pang Ze, Qiao Rusong, Wei Yang, Xu Yinglang, Yao Wei, and Ji Ming. They chatted and laughed happily.

The wine and delicacies from the Scholar's House are displayed in front of the desk. The light rain falls on the railings and stone slabs, and joy forms a stream and flows away.

Today, everyone gathered, mainly because Jia Huan wrote to Mr. Ye: I asked you all when you would set out to Beijing to participate in the Bingchen Examination. He arranged food and accommodation. He also wrote to you.

In the 13th year of Yongzhi, the emperor offered a grace exam on the 70th birthday of the Supreme Emperor. At that time, only Jia Huan, Gongsun Liang and Luo Xiangyang participated in the Wendao Academy and all won.

Jia Huan solved the problem with a sentence "A common man can be a teacher for a hundred generations, and a word can be the law of the world" and seized Huiyuan, and tested the flowers in the palace. He is now a lecturer in Hanlin. Gongsun Liang abandoned his official position and returned to the academy to study. His ambition was not on the official career. Luo Xiangyang vowed not to enter the official career without the Sanding Jia, and taught and studied in the academy.

In the 13th year of Yongzhi, it was also the year of the provincial examination. In August, Pang Ze, Qiao Rusong, Xu Yinglang, Wei Yang and others participated in the provincial examination. Only Xu Yinglang passed the provincial examination in Beizhili. The rest failed the two tests and were wasted the imperial examination.

Therefore, this year's examination was only Ji Ming, Ji Dexin, Luo Xiangyang and Xu Yinglang who came to Beijing to attend Jia Huan's wedding last June. There were no tribute students from the Imperial College.

Ye Hongyun was generous, shook her head, and sighed: "Ziyu's mentality is getting more and more leisurely now. This is not a good thing. Although I don't know much about the officialdom, I also know the principle of sailing against the current. Alas..."

He was a little worried. The Jia family is now full of flowers and cooking oil with fire. Such a situation is actually more likely to happen. Jia Huan seems to be content with pleasure.

Gongsun Liang smiled gently and comforted: "Mr. Ye, Junior Brother Jia is now dormant for a while. The Hanlin Staff at his age is so scary. He always has to wait for the limelight to pass. I heard that Grand Secretary He appreciates him very much."

When he looks back, he will remind Ziyu not to be immersed in the gentle land.

Pang Ze has an ugly appearance and is wearing a neat Lanshirt. He married a virtuous wife. He is quite proficient in power and plotting, and said with a smile: "Mr. Ye, Ziyu is not favored by Zizi today. If she goes against the trend, she will not be beautiful.

It’s good to have a rest for one or two years. With my understanding of Ziyu, he is not controlled by others. He will definitely not think about stopping in his career and lectured with Hanlin. Mr. Ye, but he can rest assured."

He knew very well that the mountain leader intended to leave all the political resources to Jia Huan. Jia Huan was carrying the political will of the entire Wendao Academy system. Jia Huan could not become the flag bearer of the entire system and team with a Hanlin lecturer.

I believe Jia Huan knows it. The official position must be promoted. However, it has been a good choice recently for a period of dormant.

Ye Hongyun nodded, smiled and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this topic, just talk about poetry." He raised his glass to drink with his disciples.

Gongsun Liang stood up, excited, holding a cup and laughed: "Ziyu's song Niannujiao-Chimi nostalgia has been released, and since then there has been nostalgia. However, I prefer the song "Call the yell at Senior Li Qinglian."

This poem does give people the feeling of overflowing talent. Everyone laughed relaxedly. The atmosphere in the open pavilion became literary in the light rain.

…

…

Everyone in Wendao Academy laughed and talked about poetry. In life, an exquisite carriage from Rongguo Mansion arrived in Dongzhuang Town in the rain. Li Wan stroked the beautiful hair on her forehead in the carriage. The elegant young woman was flowing with charm.

At the same time, another exquisite carriage came out of the scholar's restaurant, turned to the capital at the intersection.

The raindrops fell on the bluestone slab. The carriage wheels passed by. Lin Zhiyun looked at the exquisite invitation in her hand. This was the invitation letter from the Jiafu Xinfeng Auction House.

The maid Yu'er sat aside, with a petite and exquisite figure and excellent proportions. The pink skirt pressed on the seat to outline the round buttocks, exquisite, immature, and sexuality - unspeakable.

Yu'er held her cheeks in a funny way. How could she not see the inner expectation of her lady? (.)
