Tang Dynasty good father-in-law

The little boy kneeling in front of him who looked eight or nine years old was Pei Xingjian who was also from the Pei family in Hedong, but his father and elder brother were both buried at the hands of Wang Shichong.

Pei Xingjian, who was four or five years old at the beginning, was fostered in the family of Pei Ju, who was of the same clan. Although his relatives died early, Pei Xingjian was smart since he was a child, and he was quite loved by Pei Ju.

This time the letter was a dying request to accept this student Pei Xingjian, because he could not see hope for the revitalization of the Pei family in Hedong in his own son, so he put all his heart and soul into this young man of the same clan.

"Get up first, I wonder if there is a place to live in Chang'an?"

Shu An's eyes flickered and he said slowly, no matter whether it was public or private, he had no reason to refuse.

After the words fell, the old butler who had followed Pei Ju for a long time looked happy, because he knew that An Xuangong agreed.

"The master said before he was alive that there is a house in Chang'an left to the young master."

After a flash of emotion, the old housekeeper said respectfully, but he still knelt and did not get up.

Shu An nodded, no matter what, the Pei family in Hedong is also a big family, although not as famous as the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs, it is still a famous family.

There is no need to worry about housing or food and clothing, let alone Pei Ju, an old fox, who must have arranged everything before his death.

"You guys go back and stay here first. When Kaichun Academy opens, someone will notify you. From now on, Pei Xingjian will be the first student of the academy."

Shu An's voice sounded again. After speaking, this Pei Xingjian still has a lot to do in the future.

Although not as dazzling as Xue Rengui, he is still a rare handsome talent. Although personal bravery is important in this era, it is not the decisive factor that determines the direction of the battlefield.

Chapter 84 Ready for Wine, Short of Money

"Young master, you must seize this opportunity."

When the old and the young walked out of the Shu residence, the old butler said with a serious expression on his face.

"Uncle Liu, I know, I will definitely not disappoint Grandpa Clan."

Pei Xingjian's eyes flickered and he clenched his fists and said, he is already nine years old after the Chinese New Year, he is already considered a teenager, and he has the ability to judge for himself.

He often heard the grandfather of the clan talk about this Duke Anxuan, who is a rare great talent in the world.

Even if a great Confucian once visited, he only commented on Shang Ke. One can imagine the horror of this Duke Anxuan.

He knew that this was an opportunity that his grandfather had asked for on his deathbed, so he must seize it.

The old butler looked at the young master and nodded, feeling relieved for the master at the same time. He would never forget the scene when his master entrusted the young master to him.

"The rise and fall of the Pei family in the next few decades will depend on Xingjian."

The old housekeeper kept this sentence firmly in his heart, and the master was afraid that the young master would suffer unfair treatment after he passed away, so he arranged for him to come to Chang'an.

Knowing how much the master attaches importance to the young master, he secretly made up his mind to bring up the young master.

At this time, Shu An's complexion in the Shu residence was a bit strange, he did not expect that the academy had its first student before it even started.

However, Shu An's eyes flickered. With Li Shimin's imperial examination reform drawing firepower ahead, the academy's admissions criteria were about to begin.

"The first batch of students doesn't need that many students, 20 people is almost enough."

Shu An thought silently, he didn't have the idea of ​​recruiting disciples widely, that would attract too much attention.

Moreover, he is more interested in children from poor families than those from aristocratic families or noble families.

For example, the fate of Shu Kuanghu and others has changed under their own changes. Whether they enter the official career, join the army, or become businessmen, I believe everyone will have good achievements.

Originally they were orphans, maybe because of the war, or because of natural disasters and man-made disasters, if there is no Shu'an, they may die in their original fate, or they may be like ordinary people.

As for wanting to become what it is now, unless one encounters a great opportunity, it is not so easy to change one's own destiny in this era.

"Then let out some wind and see."

Shu An's eyes flickered and he whispered softly, to see how the world reacted to the academy.

"Tread, step!"

Just as Shu An's thoughts were racing, a sound of footsteps came, bringing Shu An back to his senses.

"Qingque, why are you alone today?"

Seeing Li Tai's figure, Shu An couldn't help thinking that today is the time to practice calligraphy again. In this era, there are not as many days off for Chinese New Year as in later generations.

"Grandpa An, the queen mother said that my sister is unwell and asked me to come here alone."

Li Tai said respectfully, but he didn't pay attention to what he said. Instead, he was a little secretly pleased because no one would compete with him for food.

"Lizhi, is this always the case?"

Shu An could hear the normality in Li Tai's words, so he couldn't help but continue to ask.

"My sister has a fit of physical discomfort every once in a while."

Li Tai replied without any hesitation, although some Grandpa An would be curious about this matter.

"Well, Qing Que should practice calligraphy first."

Shu An's eyes flickered and he said absent-mindedly, there seemed to be a hint of thought in his words.

Li Tai nodded, and immediately ran to practice calligraphy by himself. He was more familiar with the Shu Mansion than the Imperial Palace, and he was not at all unfamiliar with it.

As time passed, when Shu An sent Li Tai away, he couldn't help but sigh slightly.

At the beginning, he took care of Wugou wholeheartedly and found a lot of medicinal materials, but even so, there was still no good way to deal with this disease.

The only thing he could think of was to strengthen his own physique and prevent it from recurring, but it seemed to be due to heredity.

Even Lizhi or Douzi who was born after that doesn't seem to live long, the reason is that she was born with a congenital disease.

After thinking of this, even Shu An's expression gave him some headaches. After all, he was not a miracle doctor in his previous life, nor was he a medical student.

Faced with such a situation, even he is somewhat powerless. The traverser is not omnipotent, at least he is not.

"Laifu, go find someone, and say that An Xuan is preparing wine in Chang'an."

Shu An's voice sounded slowly, and there was a glimmer of hope in his words, even asthma in later generations is an unresolved symptom.

Although it can be controlled by drugs and lead a life similar to that of normal people, those drugs are not available in this era.

Although he also thought of the system, he still shook his head, because this system is not reliable at all and can be completely ignored.

"Master, do you know who to look for?"

A trace of doubt appeared on Laifu's face and he asked, unexpectedly, there are still people who personally find and invite people.

"Sun Simiao!"

Shu An slowly spat out a name and said, this person is Sun Simiao, the contemporary genius doctor.

"Yes!"

Lai Fu was stunned for a moment, but immediately said respectfully, because he had seen this genius doctor before, and the master had communicated with him a lot.

After Laifu retired, Shu An couldn't help but continue to think about it, although the average age in this era is not high.

But some people are born with a long life, such as Sun Simiao. If he remembers correctly, Sun Simiao will be nearly 60 years old this year.

If it was someone else, they might have stepped into the coffin, but there are many controversies about Sun Simiao's age in history.

Many of them are at least a hundred years old for sure, even Shu An doesn't know if he can survive this medicine king.

"Later generations pay attention to education and medical care, and it is the same in this era. If you want to further your reputation, starting with medical care will also play a lot of role."

Shu An thought silently, in this era, medical clinics are called sickhouses, but if ordinary people get sick, they basically look down on them.

Of course, even if it is to see a doctor, it may not be useful. Even in the palace, many princes died young, let alone ordinary people's homes.

But it is not so easy to see a doctor for free, because the first point is money.

Shu An had found a lot of money before, but looking at it now, it seems that there is not much. If he wants to benefit the world, his wealth alone is not enough.

"I didn't expect that I, Shu'an, would still be short of money."

Shu An couldn't help laughing at himself, but then his face became serious, because money is indispensable.

Chapter 85 Vibration, Demonstration

Gangnam East

At the gate of Dantu County, Runzhou, a notice was posted, which instantly attracted the attention of the people passing by.

"What's written on it?"

"Hasn't sir come yet?"

"I hope it's not a notice to increase taxes."

........

Although many people gathered before the announcement, there was not a single literate person, and they had to wait for the nearby gentleman to come.

However, there was no gentleman, but there was a scholar who was dressed a little thinly and immediately attracted all eyes. Although he was not a gentleman, he could read and write.

There was also some doubts on the boy's face, and he didn't know what announcement would be announced at this time.

In particular, someone had asked these soldiers at the city gate before. Although they were also illiterate, they still got some news.

For example, this announcement came from Chang'an, which means that it was not an announcement from the county or state, but an order from His Majesty to the whole world.

Calculating the time from Chang'an to Jiangnan, it is very likely that the decree was delivered in the few days after the New Year, which made the boy excited.

You must know that the few things that can be discussed first in the new year's court meeting must be big things that affect the world.

After getting out of the way, the boy approached the notice and began to read it.

"I tell people all over the world that every time there is chaos in the world, the world is in peace, there are not enough officials in various places, and the imperial examination system is reformed..."

While reading the other side, the young man was also shocked. You must know that he also had the idea of ​​going to Chang'an for fame.

However, he hesitated in the end, because the journey was too far away, and there were old mothers and brothers at home who depended on him for support.

At the beginning, he learned a lot of words from a gentleman, and he took the position of accountant in a restaurant in Dantu City.

The key point is that the owner's family still has a lot of books, which are a feast for his eyes and also let him learn a lot of knowledge by himself.

Although life is difficult now, it is much better than most common people's homes.

Once I go to Chang'an, it will take a few months at least, and more than a year at most, what will happen to this family.

After the reading was over, everyone understood the content of the notice, and many people breathed a sigh of relief at first, as long as it wasn't a tax.

As for the reform of the imperial examination, it has nothing to do with ordinary people, but the eyes of the humble scholars gathered behind are bright.

You must know that apart from the long distance to Chang'an, there is also the fact that the number of people enrolled in each imperial examination is too small, only 30 people.

After several considerations, the son of the common people from a poor family shook his head even more, a penny is hard for a hero.

But now, there is an opportunity, the top [-] in each imperial examination, the whole world has [-] more places.

Although I can only be a petty official, I don't know how much higher it is compared to the accountants or companions of poor students nowadays.

The eyes of many humble scholars flickered, and they had already decided to prepare for the imperial examination. Of course, some people were concerned about the martial arts examination.

However, the martial arts examination is only for the first time. If you want to participate, you have to come to Chang'an like the previous imperial examinations.

Ordinary people have many children. Originally, they thought that illiteracy and imperial examinations had nothing to do with them, but now it seems that the words are different, and it has something to do with them.

Not only Jiangnan Dongdao, but the proclamation spread throughout the world, and everyone was shocked by it.

The last shock was the time between Lingyan Pavilion and Quyuanli, but it wasn't such a sensation at that time.

The reason is that Lingyan Pavilion basically has nothing to do with the common people, and Qu Yuanli's words are not of much interest to the children of the aristocratic family.

It can be said that you may listen to it, but you must forget it after a while, but this time is different.

Both scholars and ordinary people were shocked, and even aristocratic families were considering the changes brought about by the imperial examination.

"I'm waiting for the poor family's children to finally have their day."

"Farm children can also embark on the road to the army through martial arts."

"Your Majesty Shengming, woo woo woo..."

......

Some were excited, some were excited, and some were weeping with joy, because they saw the way forward.

They were born as if their destiny was already fixed, even if they wanted to change, but they were still powerless, and this time they rekindled hope.

Changan
