Chapter 199 Sending Jinzhou Scholars to Examination

In the next four days, Luo Yan will mainly focus on the teaching and analysis of the scriptures.There are naturally many people who want to listen to Luo Yan's analysis of the exam questions.Just as the inside story of the scientific examination was revealed on the first day, many people felt that with Luo Yan's familiarity with the content of the scientific examination over the years, if he could analyze the reliable questions of this year, the Jinzhou candidates would take advantage of it.

But Luo Yan didn't think so.Originally, there was no way to take shortcuts in reading.What Luo Yan taught on the first day was just a detailed explanation of some factors outside the scientific examination room.Fortunately, the level of Luo Yan's lectures is not low, and the number of people who come to listen to the lectures is actually increasing day by day.On the last day, it is said that scholars from other places participated in it.This made Luo Yan a little more confident.

In the setting sun, watching the scholars around the gate of the state school gradually disperse with a little regret.Luo Yan was lost in thought.

Although I am not as famous as those great Confucians now, when it comes to the poems and books in my belly and my understanding of the scriptures, I am not too inferior.During this lecture, Luo Yan combined the previous lectures given by Lu Deming and Kong Yingda, and added his own understanding to polish all the lecture notes for the four days.And looking at the reactions of these scholars and the masters around them, I think the effect is quite good.

When he came back to his senses, he found that those masters were still standing at the door, waiting for him.Luo Yan turned around and said: "These few days have dragged down a few masters, and they should go to bed early. Tomorrow morning, those scholars will follow the tribute convoy to Beijing, and I will see them off later." A big event is that Yu Shizong, who is a state at this time, will also go to see him off, let alone those who are teaching and educating people.Moreover, most of the people who went to Chang'an this time were their students.If you don't show up tomorrow morning, it will be unreasonable.

After listening to Luo Yan's order, the masters naturally would not refuse, and after greeting each other, they went back to rest.

Early the next morning, when Luo Yan got up, he saw that the courtyard of the state school was full of people.The few scholars who lived in the state school and were going to apply for the exam were surrounded by students, and they were taking turns to bless them.There will be officers and wives at the time of farewell later, how can it be their turn to speak, so the excitement is brought forward.Naturally, Luo Yan would not bother them. This time was just free and he took a book to read.

After Maoshi, the sky was bright, and the masters came to ask whether they should take the students to the gate of the city to see them off.

This time and place had been agreed with Yu Shizong long ago.Seeing that it was about the same time, Luo Yan put down the book in his hand, nodded, and followed the masters out the door.At this moment, the students had already been organized. When they saw Luo Yan, they greeted them in unison and waited for Luo Yan to speak.

"The students who applied for today's exam will be leaving soon, so I will say a few words here. The first sentence, put away your pride when you arrive in Chang'an, so that you can study your homework, and don't be addicted to the place of flowers, flowers, willows and greenery, and delay your own life for nothing. Future." Luo Yan glanced at the three young masters.Liu Min and Yu Shiying are better, it's just that they are a bit aggressive, but they can still calm down.What Luo Yan was talking about was Zheng Songfeng, who was not top-notch in talent and learning, but had a rather arrogant personality, and he was easy to offend people. He was born in a family with no power relations except a little money.

Seeing that most of the students nodded respectfully, Luo Yan said the second sentence: "The second sentence. If you don't want to cause trouble, but trouble happens to you, don't be afraid. As long as you are reasonable , I can guarantee that you will not suffer from waiting." Looking around, Luo Yan said forcefully: "My students, as long as they behave properly and sit properly, if anyone provokes you for no reason, come to me to make decisions for you."

Originally thought that Luo Yan was another warning, telling them to behave in Chang'an with their tails between their legs.Who would have thought that upon hearing such a sentence, the students couldn't believe it at this moment.The state university compound, which was originally very quiet, suddenly became a little more noisy, and the students were all confirming each other: "I heard you right, what did the doctor say?" Waiting for the people around to repeat what Luo Yan said just now, There was a gleam in their eyes.

Confucian scholars don't all talk about self-cultivation and self-cultivation, even if they suffer a small loss, they will choose to endure.And Chang'an is also a place of right and wrong, rich and powerful families are everywhere, and there are many rich and powerful businessmen. If you accidentally run into trouble, you will suffer a lot.It is not uncommon for scholars from other places to die in Chang'an in recent years.At this moment, a master who speaks so hard suddenly appeared, how could Zhu Sheng not be excited.

Thinking about Luo Yan's identity, this is something that can be said in front of the emperor.Even though his official position is a little bit down now, his usual relationship is still there, and he is also the number one person in Chang'an.The scholars who applied for the exam were even more excited. At this moment, they all bowed to Luo Yan and sang, "Thank you, Doctor."

After a little support, Luo Yan said: "Okay, get up quickly, the time is almost up, I will rush to the gate of the city right now. Wouldn't it be a crime to keep Governor Yu waiting?" After finishing speaking, he took the eight masters to Go to the door.

Although the location of the state school is a bit off, the distance to the city gate is very short.In just three quarters, the group arrived in front of the city gate amidst the pointing of the people on the road.After the students consciously took their positions, they pushed the few scholars who had applied for the examination to the gate of the city. After a while of incense sticks, they saw Yu Shizong arriving in sedan chairs with a group of officials from the state capital.

After exchanging pleasantries, Yu Shizong first gave instructions to the guards who escorted the tribute, and then turned his attention to those scholars who were going to Chang'an.At this moment, no matter whether they were from government schools or were recommended by the state government, they all stood in front of Yu Shizong.Counting carefully, there are more than [-] people.

Looking at the scholars in front of him with a smile on his face, Yu Shizong said emotionally: "Looking at you today, I think of the time when I applied for the exam. I studied things to learn how to cultivate morality, and now you have studied hard for several years. It’s been too many years in the cold window. It’s time to show your talents and govern the country and the world. This time I go to Chang’an, I must apply for the exam. I don’t ask you to wait for someone to win the leader, but I will be named on the gold list, and I will celebrate you when I come back.”

Scholars who were devoted to the scientific examination were short of breath when they heard the title on the gold list. Yu Shizong had such high hopes, they must express it.They bowed one after another, and made promises in their mouths at the same time.Although it was just a formality, Yu Shizong stroked his beard and laughed.Obviously, the faces of these scholars at the moment are full of wisdom, which fully reveals their self-confidence. Yu Shizong is thinking that Jinzhou can make a few Jinshi in one fell swoop, so that he can be educated in the next evaluation of officials. It was well received.

After Yu Shizong calmly accepted the thanks from the scholars, he turned his head to look at Luo Yan and said, "Dr. Luo is in charge of the state middle school, why don't you say a few words?"

What Luo Yan wanted to say had already been said in the state school, but at the moment Yu Shizong invited him, it was hard to refuse.After thinking for a while, Luo Yan made a promise to the scholars in front of him: "There are two sentences before, which were said in the state school. Those two sentences are not limited to the students of the state school. Everything about Jinzhou scholars is a promise." Afterwards, the scholars of the state school can tell you. What I want to tell you now is, don’t judge success or failure based on temporary gains and losses. Although fame is good, it is just a way to become an official.”

When Yu Shizong saw that Luo Yan had finished speaking, he returned to his original place, knowing that he had nothing to say next, he waved his hand to signal the guards and scholars to go on the road.After bowing to Yu Shizong and Luo Yan, these people embarked on the journey to Chang'an.

As the sun drifted overhead, the figures of the crowd gradually became blurred.Only when he was out of sight, Yu Shizong breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Luo Yan: "Dr. Luo, let's go back. Just in time, can you tell me what you said in Zhouxue?"

Yu Shizong was very curious about Luo Yan's words, and he finally asked after holding back for a long time.Hearing what Yu Shizong said, Luo Yan smiled and did not hide anything, so he told Yu Shizong exactly the two words he had warned all students in the state school just now.

After Yu Shizong finished listening, he also admired Luo Yan's courage. "A certain official has been an official for decades, and has worked in six counties and three states. This is the first time I have seen an academic officer like Dr. Luo." The tone of the exclamation became stronger: "I am constrained by old etiquette and power, and also because of the regulations of official schools. How can masters speak such bold words like you. In the past few years when Jinzhou scholars came to Chang'an, there were quite a few people who were angered for no reason, but in the end they all chose to compromise. This year's scholars are blessed."

Hearing this, Luo Yan said solemnly: "Not everyone is as polite as the scholars of my generation. Chang'an is mixed with fish and dragons, and those scholars who study hard must be more likely to suffer. If I don't care, in the long run, power and money will interrupt me. At that time, the collapse of etiquette and music will be the real tragedy. Moreover, once some talented but unvirtuous students are born because of this, it will really be a big sin."

At this moment, Luo Yan not only thought of the beast he hated the most.Those who use the guise of academics to collect money and help some people with vested interests to endorse are constantly fooling the people.Such an act is even more heinous than murder and arson.Unfortunately, even if the incident is revealed, these people can still be at ease in the end.Luo Yan felt that if such a thing came out of his professors, he would be ashamed to death.

After listening to Luo Yan's remarks, Yu Shizong nodded and praised: "With such moral character, coupled with Dr. Luo's talent and learning today, I think the atmosphere will become more and more fresh after coming to this Shilin. If Dr. Luo can persist in the future In this way, the blessings of scholars in the world."

Yu Shizong's praise made Luo Yan feel a little thick-faced, and quickly waved his hands: "In his position, he seeks his own government. Now I am a Ph.D. in Jinzhou, so I can do this in a legitimate way. Maybe you can do better, if you talk about the blessings of scholars in the world, it is indeed a bit exaggerated, Luo Yan is really ashamed."

Seeing Luo Yan being so shy, Yu Shizong felt normal.When talking with Luo Yan, I always feel like I am with an old master.Only when he is shy will people feel that this is just a young man in his early twenties.
