Chapter 419 The practice of the article
The Imperial College was established by the previous dynasty, and the Queen Dugu did not reform it because students from all over the country entered the Imperial College and entered the officialdom after graduation. This is one of the ways to select court ministers and an important supplement to the imperial examination and elect officials.
There are roughly two types of students in the Imperial College, either the children of wealthy families, who are not promising but are not the eldest son, cannot inherit the title, and have no hope of taking the imperial examination. They come to the Imperial College for qualifications and become a small official in the future. After taking over the official position, they will work hard to get promoted. However, even if the students from the Imperial College are powerful, they will not become high-ranking officials like those from Jinshi, and can only be middle and lower-level officials.
Another type of students is talented but poor at home. They are talented, but their families cannot afford to study. If they run around for life and delay their studies, it will be a bit unrealistic to take the imperial examination. Therefore, they pass the examination and enter the Imperial College. With their own abilities, they can have a future after graduation. Although they are not as good as the scientific examination, what else can the children of poor families expect?
In addition to these two situations, there are some other students who are considered children of businessmen, who have money but no power and are not capable yet, and they just make a living here. However, the status of businessmen is low, so there is not many such students and they have no weight to speak, so they can be ignored and not remembered.
Because of this, the students in the Imperial College like to discuss the government affairs the most, and they dare not talk loudly, for fear of being repaired, so they only buzzed underneath, just like flies, which was particularly annoying, but they couldn't catch any handles!
In the folk, if you think a person is annoying to speak, you will say that this person likes to fart and speaks nonsense. The students in the Imperial College hate it so much, but they are still unfair. They are not fart-free, but they talk nonsense in private. This is idle, so the comments of the ministers in the court to the Imperial College students are: No fart-free, and a pure group of shit-stumbling sticks!
It doesn’t matter if a shit stirrer is together, but if a group of shit stirrers come together, it really makes people unable to calm down. Queen Dugu ignored these shit stirrers. She couldn’t be locked up in the Imperial College, otherwise wouldn’t the grassroots officials needed by the empire be cut off? Ignore it!
But Li Zhenglong's thought of winning over such a group made her extremely angry. Even if the eldest princess was poor and had no bottom line, she did not attack military power or win over a large number of reserve officials. However, Li Zhenglong did this, which made Queen Dugu feel that in this world, there was no bottom line, but only who had no bottom line!
Yang Ze planned for Li Zhenglong with one mind. As a result, Empress Dugu hated Li Zhenglong even more. Strictly speaking, Li Zhenglong had completely lost the possibility of becoming the crown prince and wanted to ascend the throne. Apart from launching a coup, he had no second point to leave.
Queen Dugu looked at Caicai beside her and suddenly asked, "Yang Ze, that bastard, he is not from the imperial examination. If you want to enter the center and get promoted again, it is probably impossible. Does he know this? "
Cai Cai showed a look of surprise on her face. This was not a pretender. She was really shocked and said, "Can Yang Ze be promoted again? But he always thought about becoming the prime minister in the future. Now he is just a county magistrate, and he is still far from the prime minister!"
She was not afraid of being joked, and she shook all Yang Ze's thoughts!
Queen Dugu snorted and said, "He is neither a juren nor a jinshi, he is not even a scholar, and he is also a prime minister. That is just someone else's talk about it. He just listened to it. Do he really think he can be prime minister unless he takes the scientific examination!"
Cai Cai was shocked and said, "Then what's the use of him doing this? It turns out that he was not a person who got the exam and could not be the prime minister! But there are also people who got the exam and became the Minister of the Secretariat and later promoted to the prime minister, it was called... it was called Xunjin?"
"According to the rules, this is true, but even if you are lucky enough to enter, you must go to the Imperial College to take the Imperial College, otherwise you will not be able to pass the exam or the Imperial College. Then, wouldn't you be lucky enough to pass the exam? Except for what you could do when you founded the country, you can do it at other times!" Empress Dugu said despised.
In her heart, Yang Ze is the son of a small businessman. He doesn't know anything. He just can talk big and dreams of being prime minister, but he doesn't even understand the matter of getting a diploma. He just wants to be lucky and curry favor with Li Yan. What's the use? Even if Li Yan wants him to be prime minister, before he becomes the prime minister, he still has to do his face and go to the Imperial College for a walk? There is no basic common sense. Why did Yang Ze eat!
Cai Cai continued to be surprised and said, "It turns out that those small officials have been to the Imperial College, so why don't they tell the child!"
What is there to say about this kind of thing? It’s like someone else saying that I’m having a meal today, but I won’t say that I’m using my mouth to eat today. I have to use my mouth to eat. This is something that everyone knows. What is there to say? If you go to the Imperial College for study, even if it’s just a name, it takes a year or two, this name will be available!
Queen Dugu said: "There is no need to really go in and study. Just have a name. When the Imperial College Priest is conducting an assessment, he will be there and go through the motions. Do you want Yang Ze to go to the Imperial College for a walk and get a degree?"
Cai Cai nodded immediately. Of course she was willing. Even if her father returned to Beijing from a distant town west, he was willing to promote Yang Ze. But don’t he have to do face-saving skills? If he can do face-saving skills in advance, why wait until later?
Queen Dugu said: "It's not impossible to let Yang Ze enter the Imperial College, but he wants to do something for me..." She said her thoughts.
Cai Cai heard this and said with a smile: "This is too simple. Yang Ze likes to read other people's jokes. He is the best at finding trouble in the world. It is the best thing he does to do this job."
Queen Dugu also smiled and said, "Then do it like this, let him study and learn. Let Liang Dazhong say hello to the Ministry of Rites tomorrow. He is the county magistrate and learn how to be the county magistrate!"
Outside the palace, Li Zhenglong came out. When he saw Yang Ze, he told him what happened today and expressed some apology for not taking Yang Ze to the palace with him.
Yang Ze had known that such a result would be there for a long time, so of course he wouldn't mind. Anyway, Li Zhenglong was not far from being in trouble, so he could still afford to wait for this time.
The two returned to Jia Xiuyu's mansion again, and they were busy again. The house was almost raided, and Li Zhenglong did the finishing work, such as handing over a complete account book and arranging Jia Xiuyu's affairs. Yang Ze was no longer responsible. When he returned to the county government, the leaders would have to do the credit. Li Zhenglong was the leader, and Yang Ze still understood this.
Once back to the county government office and entered the back house, Yang Ze immediately called Tan Zhengwen and asked how he caught Dugu Baoqiao and Princess Yingguo. They were scared. In theory, they should have left early, but why did they come back again?
Tan Zhengwen said: "The disciple was not very clear about this matter. He forced Dugu Baoqiao to ask him, but he couldn't answer anything. He just said that the eldest princess asked him to come back. It was probably the eldest princess who was thinking of a solution. No matter how she said that, she would not be willing to let her daughter and son-in-law go to the ends of the world."
Yang Ze nodded. This is true. No mother would be willing to let it go. Besides, if you really go to that remote place, it is a problem whether you can come back alive! But in this way, it was cheaper. Yang Ze originally thought it would take some effort to catch Dugu Baoqiao back!
After sending Tan Zhengwen away, Yang Ze began to think that he had captured Dugu Baoqiao to threaten the eldest princess. Don’t think that only she would kill people, and he would, and no one would be afraid of anyone. But now that he really caught Dugu Baoqiao, he had to think about how to use it.
Li Zhenglong is in the limelight now, and the eldest princess is a little inferior to him, especially after he has mastered military power, even if it is a temporary generation, with Li Zhenglong's personality, he will be able to consolidate and win over the military generals. According to his previous ideas, Li Zhenglong will be taken out of the capital and let Li Zhenglong make military achievements and fight for a year and a half. As for the body of Queen Dugu, what will happen after a year and a half? At that time, Li Zhenglong wanted to come back from another place, of course he would definitely be able to come back, but it was useless to come back, and the daylily was cold.
This Dugu Baoqiao must be used well. He was sent away by the Queen Dugu. In the eyes of outsiders, he must be resentful. If he falsely accused him of raising the flag to rebel, many people would probably believe that Dugu Baoqiao is a member of the Dugu royal family. He wanted to be the emperor and compete with the people of the Li family. This reason is reasonable!
Yang Ze shouted to the outside, "Come on, take a map and take a bigger map!"
After a while, a servant brought the map. Of course, the map of Wannian County is not small, but it is not detailed. It is not as good as the map in the palace, and has terrain and place names, but it is limited to this. It has no military value, but it is also sufficient for Yang Zelai.
After looking at the map for a while, Yang Ze found that following the route of Dugu Baoqiao, he had to go east first and then south. There was no country on this road, but if he went east and did not go south but north, there would be a country. Of course, it could not be considered a country. It could only be considered a region, named Gao Gouli. This country has been destroyed by Dafang. However, some people of Gao Gouli fled and built several small cities in the northeast region, but they did not accept the control of the Celestial Empire. Because there were many mountains and barren land there, they belonged to the use of the Celestial Empire. These Gao Gouli people who lost their country built cities here, but why did the Dafang Empire send troops to burn these small cities? We have to ask others. He is not clear now, but this area is not subject to the control of the Celestial Empire. This is a fact.
Yang Ze touched his chin and thought to himself: "These Gao Gouli people who were destroyed must be resentful and generous. Moreover, they live in mountains and other countries around them, all of which are small countries and are not very strong. It is not worth it to attack them in order to grab the mountain. It is because they are too poor, so no one will destroy them. But because they have been destroyed, someone should believe that they want to restore their country."
This can be used to make a fuss!
