MTL - Feng Xing-Chapter 98
Because of the importance he attached to the deputy mountain chief, and considering that it was convenient to talk at this time, and knowing how arrogant the literati are, he probably wouldn't make a heart-to-heart analysis with a woman, so Feng Sheng changed into men's clothes on purpose.
Feng Sheng knew about this person named Guan Qian in advance.
This person is the son of Jianping for 18 years. He has been wasting his fame and fame all these years. I am afraid that he knows that he will not pass the exam, so he will find another way out.
Very mediocre life experience, if the recommender is Mao Dan, and Wei Wang personally said, I am afraid Feng Sheng will not meet him, but she also knows Wei Wang's character, it is not that this person really has something outstanding, Wei Wang is Will not mention it to her personally.
Sure enough, when she saw Guan Qian the next day, she was a bit surprised.
How should I put it, in Feng Sheng's imagination, this person is a person who is not very proud of his life. He should be a silent and thin man with a goatee and a white-washed scholar's shirt, not a big man with a round waist who doesn't look like a man. A scholar looks like a fat cook.
It's not too fat, but judging by its ruddy complexion and eloquence, it's a bit beyond Feng Sheng's expectation anyway. Afterwards, I found out that Guan Qian is also a person with rich experience.
This person is from the Northwest, and he was born in a well-to-do family. It should be noted that in the Northwest, where the literary style is not so prosperous, it will cost far more than the South to get a reputation. Because whether it is from the perspective of famous teachers or the local customs, less is more expensive, and more expensive is more expensive.
To use the simplest analogy, a piece of bamboo paper sells for only 20 to 30 yuan in the south, but it is far more than twice as expensive in the northwest than in the south. It is extremely difficult for scholars.
It was indeed difficult, so Guan Qian's admission to this Juren was due to the family background of the older generations. Even so, in order to test his fame and support his family, this Guan Qian worked as a waiter for others, worked as an accountant, copied books for bookstores, wrote letters on behalf of the street, and even opened a library as a private school teacher. And Feng Sheng did not guess wrong, he even worked as a cook for others.
Anyway, as long as he can earn money, he will do whatever he wants. He is over forty years old, so why is he so stagnant in his career? I'm afraid these things also play a role, and his energy is really low.
And Guan Qian was not like Feng Sheng thought, he bumped his head against the mountain of imperial examination and didn't know how to look back. Now whenever there is a scientific examination, he will still come to take the test. If he passes the test, he will pass it. If he fails the test, he will continue to go back to work. Before he went to Beijing, he was a teacher in a school during the day, and worked in a restaurant after school. Cooks can be regarded as a rare gem among scholastics.
This Guan Qian is not ashamed at all, talking about his past experiences, Feng Sheng's eyes are full of surprises, and he understands why King Wei mentioned him.
In fact, she discussed this matter with King Wei before, what kind of deputy head should be found in the academy. According to her inherent thinking, Feng Sheng felt that she should be a learned man, but Wei Wang shook his head, and she understood the meaning.
The post of Shanzhang in the Academy will be vacant because neither she nor Wei Wang is suitable for this name. It seems to be vacant, but they both know what's going on, so the responsibility of the deputy Shanzhang will be greater.
If he wants to give lectures that can control those stinky tempers in the academy, he needs to know how arrogant the literati are, and the more stinky tempers. In particular, the king of Wei, relying on his status, specifically asked Emperor Jianping to let those Hanlins who were often left behind in the Hanlin Academy to come to the academy to put up an order, and it doesn’t matter whether they must restrict people, anyway, they can just give lectures instead.
These Hanlin people are poor and sour, but they are not very easy to serve, so the deputy head of the mountain who often deals with them must know what it means to be slick.
It is also necessary to be able to manage the students. Since the academy opened, there have been countless students in the men's hall, many of whom are from rich families. The gap between the rich and the poor in the library is too large, and conflicts will easily arise in the future. The deputy head who manages the entire academy must be familiar with the world and know how to adapt.
Not to mention that the academy does not only teach, all the students live in the dormitory, eat and drink up and down inside and outside, and the deputy head has to worry about everything. It is better for the king of Wei to go to the academy himself if someone comes to take care of the academy.
Thinking of this, Feng Sheng saw Guan Qian more and more pleasing to his eyes. After chatting for a while, he felt that the other party was knowledgeable and wise, so he immediately decided to let him go.
Afterwards, Feng Sheng left, and Guan Qian, who had just blown up, was still a little confused.
He actually didn't think he could succeed this time, but Mao Dan was from his hometown, and he was still a classmate back then. He kindly recommended himself to give him a chance, and he would not want to refute his face. When I came here, I thought about it, this is definitely not going to happen, how could someone invite him to be the head of the mountain when they opened an academy in the palace, so when I saw this young man, seeing him as gentle and young, I just thought it was someone in charge of the palace, He didn't take it to heart, and spoke very casually, never expecting that it would be decided on the spot.
When he walked out of the teahouse in a daze, and went to ask Mao Dan, he realized that this person was Princess Wei. He was so frightened that his head broke into a cold sweat, and he couldn't help but wonder if he was bald when he blew it Skin.
Because of this incident, in the future, the famous "Guan San Layman" of Jinjiang Academy will be most afraid of Princess Wei, which is unexpected, but this is a later story.
When the matter was settled, Feng Sheng told Mao Dan that Guan Qian should take office immediately, the sooner the better.
Guan Qian was also unambiguous, and immediately went to the academy with his bundle. The academy just opened and there was chaos everywhere, this person is not picky, he just found a place to live and walked around the academy.
He asked about everything clearly, and no one else knew him, so he was just a new lecturer. He was looking for people to talk to and ask questions, and told him everything he could tell. Later, some people thought that this person was too idle and talked too much. If he asked any questions, some people inevitably wondered if he was a spy sent by another academy. It was only after a misunderstanding that he was actually the deputy head.
Everything in the academy is gradually getting on the right track, and Guan Qian is also capable. If the higher ups are willing to delegate power, he can handle everything smoothly. It just happened to meet Jianping Emperor Wanshou, Feng Sheng and Wei Wang hadn't come to the academy for more than ten days, and when they entered the academy again, they could see birds singing and flowers fragrant, lush vegetation everywhere, and from time to time, they would see a student walking past with a book, that kind of The peace and tranquility that contains the aroma of books makes people's hearts calm down immediately.
In fact, this is all an illusion, there are quite a lot of things, especially Feng Sheng, she is in charge of the women's hall, and it is not easy to admit students. This year, a total of more than 20 students have been admitted. Her idea is that of the women's hall. The husband naturally wanted to choose a female gentleman, but he couldn't find a suitable one, so he first found an old gentleman to fill in.
No, the notice that the academy wants to recruit female teachers is still posted outside, and a few have come here in the past few days. Guan Qian can't make up his mind, so she has to come.
Feng Sheng met those two female gentlemen. They were both in their thirties. They came from a scholarly family. One was widowed and the other was unmarried. Both of them usually lived in the mansions of rich and noble families, acting as pawns for the girls at home. gentlemen. It's just that it's too difficult to find someone who suits your heart. Either the rich are arrogant and indulgent, or the family members don't pay much attention to it. Hiring a husband is just a cover, just fill it up for a year or two.
This time, the two heard that the academy recruited female teachers, the moonlight is rich, and there is Wei Wangfu as the backer, so it must be no joke, so they looked for it.
Come over and have a look, this academy is a good place, the environment is beautiful, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, gentlemen also have a dormitory, which is much more spacious than the students, a small courtyard with a single family, immediately fell in love with this place, and thought about staying here .
Feng Sheng talked with them, most of the women who can come out to be self-reliant female husbands nowadays have a hard life, but most of them have tenacity that ordinary women do not have. Appreciation is needless to say, naturally they all stayed.
Two female gentlemen, one surnamed Li, named Ruyu, the other surnamed Han, named Ying. When they were officially able to get started, Feng Sheng sent the old gentleman back to the men's hall, and told the two to take care of those students more.
They all came from poor backgrounds, so poetry and songs are fine. Let’s start with literacy. Feng Sheng discussed with the two of them, and in the afternoon, they added a female worker class. The self-combed unmarried woman is not good at working as a girl, but she knows a lot, and she is also a strange woman with many talents. She can teach everything, so she chose to teach arithmetic.
A lot of interesting things happened during this period. Feng Sheng found a very interesting little girl among these girls.
She is not very young, she is only eight years old this year, if someone else is born in a poor family, she is really suffering, she has no father or mother, she used to beg for food on the street, and she did not know where the academy accepts female students, so she sneaked in Yes, she was the one Feng Sheng said that someone was lying.
It's fine to deceive others with her little tricks, but how can she deceive Feng Sheng, she told Feng Sheng that she was studying to get ahead, but in fact it was just to earn a living without money for a year. Since she had to be accompanied by her family to sign up, she specially found a woman to pretend to be her mother, and her household registration was also fake. It is said that she spent 20 Wen, which she saved for a long time.
This was something that was exposed after a while, and now this girl named Xiao Yinzi, the only thing that stands out is that she can speak eloquently and likes to sneak out over the wall.
It was because of this that Feng Sheng missed her.
It's also a coincidence that when Feng Sheng and King Wei came to the academy that day, they saw the beautiful scenery on the mountain, so they didn't go through the main entrance, and took a long way around to the side entrance. Before reaching the place, I saw a little girl in a school shirt turned over from the wall.
It was the first time for that agile man to do this. Unfortunately, he met King Wei and Feng Sheng. The guards went over to **** him away, drooping like a little mouse caught stealing oil.
Even though she was caught, she still had to argue. She had met Feng Sheng before, and knowing that she was the concubine, she lied to Feng Sheng that her younger brother was sick, but the academy only gave him a rest for one day, so she wanted to sneak away Go out and have a look and come back.
Xiao Yinzi had a criminal record, Feng Sheng believed that she was a ghost, so he threatened her and said that he would send her there, but after being so frightened, he was exposed, and honestly went back to the academy with Feng Sheng, and asked the lady in charge of the women's dormitory. You know, it's not the first time Xiao Yinzi has done this, he was caught once before.
Since then, it was revealed that she was a little beggar before, and she didn't go back to see her younger brother, but her little friend who was begging together, a boy named Xiaodouzi.
…
East to spring, but just after the Lantern Festival, the capital became lively.
Without him, the three-yearly Chunwei exam will start in February this year. At this time, the capital will be very lively, and the inns everywhere will be overcrowded. There is no place to live, so many scholars who came to take the exam borrowed to live in a temple in the suburbs of Beijing. After discussing with King Wei, Feng Sheng gave up two small buildings on the northwest side of the academy for the taxis who rushed to take the exam. The child borrows for free.
It is said to be a small building, but it is actually in the form of a courtyard, but three sides are two-story small buildings, so that many people can live in it. Because of this behavior, it has increased a lot of popularity in the academy, and let many scholars who came to take the exam know that there is such a place as Jinjiang Academy.
However, the management in the academy is very strict, each courtyard has dormitory supervisors, and usually there are hall husbands who watch the division patrol regularly, and they need to register their names when they enter and leave. It’s okay to study hard and read books in the small building, but it’s not allowed to drink alcohol or make loud noises. There is a kitchen in the courtyard, and charcoal, rice and food are provided for free, so although some scholars think it’s boring here, there are also those who like the quietness here. And most of those who like to be quiet work hard.
When the list was released at the end of March, there was a famous Huiyuan in the small building. Scholars from each other would fill in the address of temporary residence to announce the good news, so the person who announced the good news came directly to the academy. The lively atmosphere at that time , simply unprecedented.
In the palace examination in April, this Huiyuan was selected as the No. 1 scholar in the palace examination, and the name of Jinjiang Academy became a hit. Although this news was touched by the joy of others, it was considered a happy event after all.
After this incident, Feng Sheng knew without thinking that there might be more scholars coming here to borrow in the next spring, and she couldn't help but wonder whether to use the open space to build a few more buildings.
But at this moment, another joy came, Feng Sheng was happy.
