The Heart of the Red Chamber

Chapter 21 Wang Ren's Imperial College Life

As a child under the age of ten, even Wang Ziteng's son, Wang Ren can't participate in many activities. For example, when Wang Xiluan got married, it is reasonable for his brothers to carry the sisters on the sedan chair, but for the sake of safety, no one can Wang Ren, a little boy, would not be allowed to take on this job, so he could only choose a member of the Wang family who had already produced five clothes.

But depression is depression, Wang Xiluan is married, and it is difficult to have the opportunity to return to her mother's house from now on, and it is time for Wang Ren to collect his thoughts and study hard every day.

Whether it was because of Wang Renyuan's good grades in the exam, or because of his family background, Wang Ren easily got the place to enter the Imperial Academy.This matter also caused Wang Zisheng and his wife to quarrel for a while. According to Wang Zisheng's thinking, he is already 40 or [-] years old. I reckoned that I would not have a second son, so I thought about negotiating with Wang Ziteng and asking him to give Wang Lun the quota of Yinsheng, so that Wang Lun would be given the title of supervisor. , even if you go back to Jinling and become a rich man, your face will look better.It's a pity that Mrs. Shi has such a temperament, she never waited to see Wang Lun, how could she give him such a cheap thing, and there were still trillions of hopes in her heart, so she was messing around for a while However, Wang Zisheng didn't value Wang Lun that much. In addition, as long as Wang Zisheng didn't fail, the quota would not disappear, so he had to perfunctory Mrs. Shi. If there are no other sons, then the only choice is Wang Lun.

Wang Ren's life in the Imperial College was very ordinary. He was young, and he had the face of Wang Ziteng and Chen Jingrong. The Imperial College, from the priest to the doctor's assistant, spoke directly. There is no act of making things difficult.

The Wang family is not very far from the Imperial College, and Mrs. Sun is not worried that such a small person as Wang Ren lives in the collective dormitory in the Imperial College. For one thing, even the Imperial College has fixed quotas for its students, such as free food and housing, every month Paper ink and candles will also be given out in a fixed amount, but these conditions are fine for ordinary Gongsheng students, but for the pampered Wang Ren, it is obviously very simple.Secondly, Mrs. Sun also knew some things about the Guozijian. She was afraid that her good son would fail to learn from those scumbags who were idle, didn’t like reading, and liked to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble. Therefore, she insisted on not allowing Wang Ren to live in the Guozijian. live at home.In the end, Wang Ren only ran over to the Guozijian when he was in class, and spent the rest of the time between the Chen residence and his own home.But this is also very worry-free, after all, Guozijian is indeed not a simple school, even the universities of later generations have some messy things!What's more, Guozijian is an academic institution in name, but it can be regarded as a government department in fact!

Since the beginning of the previous dynasty, Guozijian has often been used as a tool for the court to collect money. Whenever the finances are tight, it will allow money to be donated to the students. In addition, officials with a third rank or above have a quota of Yin students. Officials say too much is not too much, and they say too little is quite a lot. Therefore, there are also many rich and powerful children in the Imperial College, and most of them came here to be plated with gold. Who wants to calm down and study the imperial examinations!The other part is the tribute students who were selected from various places like Wang Ren. These are young heroes, most of whom came from humble or fragrant families.

Wang Ren was a little embarrassed inside. According to his family background, he should be closer to a group of honorable children, but in fact, he felt that he still had a common language with those tribute students.Fortunately, he is still young, so he can be regarded as ignorant of Fengyue's affairs, and those so-called family friends will not force him, at most, he will make a few verbal jokes.Wang Ren is a man who knows how to behave, even if he thinks that most of his family friends are ignorant, but he never tells anyone what he says or how he behaves, and he has a pretty good relationship with them.After all, those nobles can still exist till now, and unlike the Jia family, which only has two official titles left, they can still be regarded as worthy of the table. Generally, they still have some face in the court, and being able to get the quota of Yinsheng is enough to show that these people Even if they are not the most valued by the family, they are favored by the family and have a bright future in the future. Even if they don't follow civil and martial arts, it is better to make friends with each other than to fight against each other.

However, it was difficult for Wang Ren to get along well with those Gongsheng students.When he just found out that he had time-traveled, he also fancied that he was like the male protagonist in a certain novel, who could let go of his arrogance and make everyone bow his head.But in fact, this is obviously impossible.Although few of those Gong students came from poor backgrounds, not many of them were rich. Can you expect a person whose annual pocket money is less than Wang Ren’s monthly money to have much in common with Wang Ren’s hobbies?The gap between the rich and the poor obviously hindered their further communication. Another point is that even though those Gong students are young talents, their average age is more than ten years older than Wang Ren. It is really impossible to get along with each other.

What makes Wang Ren more satisfied is that the teachers of the Guozijian are all well-educated people. Although Wang Ren took advantage of having a mature soul before, most modern people have such problems, that is, their foundation is not solid, their foundation is not solid, and they are slightly weak. Impetuous, it may not be noticed at first, but in the future, even if it is not a fatal injury, it will affect the results of the imperial examination, and Chen Jingrong's education for Wang Ren is the concept of the middle school, and rote memorization is not a problem. I don't recommend it, but the Guozijian courses make up for Wang Ren's shortcomings very well, allowing Wang Ren to discover his own problems in advance and correct them in time.

Now that the peak of poetry has passed, stereotyped essays have reached a very mature stage.He couldn't believe that he could stand out from the group of people who had been steeped in stereotyped prose since childhood, just like what was said in time travel novels, by relying on the superficial understanding of ancient prose in later generations. Don't take others for fools.

Wang Ren's change was naturally discovered by Chen Jingrong. He didn't say anything about it, but he was quite relieved in his heart. Even if Wang Ren's goal in the future is to be a powerful minister, he would have to pass the imperial examination to hang out in the Imperial Academy at the beginning. Insufficient, how can you convince others?However, Chen Jingrong’s way of expressing his joy was to make Wang Ren’s composition more serious, and then he disliked Wang Ren’s handicraftsmanship and lack of character, so he asked Wang Ren to hang his wrists to practice calligraphy every day!Fortunately, Wang Ren is already an adult. For these years, because he is in the middle world, he has always felt a sense of crisis. Therefore, even if Mrs. Sun is distressed and says that Wang Ren has lost weight all day long, Wang Ren still wants to supplement Wang Ren. persevered.
