Prime Minister

Chapter 105 Farewell
The matter of going to Beijing was finalized.

The next thing is parting.

You must know that before the Qingli New Deal, Guozijian was just a place to live, and there were no more than 20 people in attendance.Aside from going to Beijing, many students only regard Taixue as a 'transfer (hotel)'.

However, Fan Zhongyan's reform separated the school buildings of Guozisheng and Taisheng students and managed them separately.

Guo Zisheng is the children of officials above the seventh rank, with a limit of 200 people. The court really can't control these people, so let's leave it to you.

However, Tai students are the children of officials below the eighth rank, and the Han Jun of each state has a quota of 200 people at the beginning, and now it has been expanded to 900 people.

Fan Zhongyan invited Hu Yuan, Sun Fu, and Shi Jie as teachers, and strictly assessed the Taixue students, which changed the style of study at the Taixue, and they were not allowed to fish for three days and hang nets for two days as before.

This is of course a good thing for the court to select talents, but it is really hard for too many students.

Those who live in the capital are okay, such as Zhao Mingcheng and Li Qingzhao in history.

When Zhao Mingcheng was a student of Tai Tai, he lived on campus on weekdays, but he could go home on the moon day. Zhao Mingcheng went to the pawn shop to pawn things in exchange for money to buy and buy for Li Qingzhao. The two liked Jinshi collection of books, calligraphy and paintings, so they went to Xiangguo Temple Market Amoy to play at home.

But for students from other places like Zhang Yue and Guo Lin, there is no way to go home.This trip to Beijing can range from two years to as many as I don't know how many years.

Han Juntai, a student from other places, tried hard and failed, and finally died of illness in Taixue.

Zhang Yue first went to the county school to find Hu Xuezheng, and he went to the county school with the official certificate of the state school. Hu Xuezheng immediately issued a voucher for him when he saw it.

After finishing the official business, Hu Xuezheng said with satisfaction: "In just one year, he was promoted from the state to Taixue. Although he is a student of economics, it is also commendable."

"Did Sanlang go to Beijing alone?" Hu Xuezheng asked.

Zhang Yue said, "It's true."

"Do you have any relatives in Beijing?"

Zhang Yue said: "I come from the Han family, and I haven't had any contact with the Zong family for a long time, even if I go to Beijing, I won't. But when the time is right, I will come and post a post..."

Hu Xuezheng laughed and said: "I almost forgot, you can't even enter this clan school."

Hu Xuezheng paced and said: "But since you are in Beijing, you might as well post a post or two, at least it will be taken care of."

Zhang Yue was at a loss when he heard this, so it should be Zhang You who told me directly.

Hu Xuezheng paused and said: "I remember your second brother is in the capital right now."

Zhang Yue was taken aback and said, "Yes...but..."

Hu Xuezheng said with a smile: "This is your family matter. I shouldn't have asked about it, but Mr. Gu Ling, the former county magistrate, had twice asked someone to bring a letter to me to ask about your recent situation. He said it was entrusted by someone, but I don't know if Who did you entrust, what do you think?"

Mr. Gu Ling is now judging Chen Xiang, the minister of the ancestral hall.When he was the county magistrate of Pucheng, Zhang Dun was his favorite student, and Hu Xuezheng was an assistant teacher at the county school.

Zhang Yue thought to himself, it didn't matter whether it was the second elder brother who asked, even if he asked in person, the time for Zhang Yue to need his care was past now.When he escaped from marriage, Zhao Yasi forced his family into such a situation, when the family needed him most, he left quietly, what's the use of talking about it now?
What's more, it may be that Chen Xiang really couldn't stand it, so he wrote a letter to ask.

The mood fluctuated for a while, Zhang Yue said: "Xuezheng forgive me, the student was just distracted for a while."

Hu Xuezheng smiled and said, "I can save it."

Zhang Yue said: "Students only want to go to Beijing now, and don't want to ask about other things."

Hu Xuezheng nodded, but looked a little disappointed.

Hu Xuezheng smiled and said: "This is your family matter, I don't want to say too much, but you and Erlang are my most proud students."

Zhang Yue stopped talking when he heard it.

"Second brother, do you have a letter to ask Mr.?"

Hu Xuezheng was taken aback for a moment, then nodded.

Zhang Yue gave a wry smile, how could he ask the teacher to ask instead of asking himself.

Zhang Yue turned around and said: "Then the students will come to Beijing this time, sir, do you have a letter for the students to take with them?"

Hu Xuezheng said: "There is indeed a letter addressed to Chen Lingjun."

Zhang Yue said: "The student is willing to take a trip for Mr.

Hu Xuezheng smiled and said: "That is the best. You come here in a few days to get the letter."

Zhang Yue said yes and then left, while Hu Xuezheng watched Zhang Yue leave and sighed for a while.

Zhang Yue bid farewell to Hu Xuezheng, and went to the dormitory to bid farewell to his classmates one by one.Although the first-year classmates can't talk about how deep their feelings are, they still feel quite touched when they look at every plant and tree in the county school.

Then Zhang Yue took the county school's ticket to the county government for a biography inspection.

On the second day, I went to Nanfengyuan. Zhang Yue didn't wear a shirt today, but ordinary clothes.

When he arrived at Nanfeng Academy, Zhang Youzhi was not in good health and did not attend class, so Zhang Yue went straight to the Zhaishe to see the teacher.But seeing that Zhang Youzhi's face was a little pale, but fortunately he was in good spirits, so Zhang Yue was a little relieved.

Zhang Youzhi got off the bed with Zhang Yue's support and said: "I have been sick for many years, but it's just next to each other. Let's talk about your business. Has the state recommended you to go to the Imperial Academy?"

Zhang Yue said: "As the master said, the students are here to say goodbye."

Zhang Youzhi nodded and said: "Good boy, good student, good son of my Zhang family!"

Zhang Yue said: "Students are ashamed, teachers are like a sea, students dare not forget anything."

Zhang You smiled and said: "You have repaid my teacher's kindness by passing on my seal script well. Do you know that when I was young, I was most afraid of 'the disease will not be known in the world'. Therefore, I devoted myself to studying calligraphy, Carve the words on stones, paper, and steles. I think so, if one day I sink into the loess, if someone sees my calligraphy and painting, it is enough to ask who this Zhang Youzhi is."

"It would be even better now that I have someone to pass on my calligraphy. In my whole life, I have focused on seal script. In the past, Li Si wrote seal script. He once said that 'in the 940 years after my empress, there should be someone who will take my place'. Sure enough, Li Yangbing succeeded."

"And who is there after Li Yangbing? Although I have devoted my whole life to studying seal script, I am afraid that there is still something that is not as good as it. But it's okay, I have a successor now, if you can pass on my calligraphy, it will be great, Lieshujia I have no regrets in this life."

Zhang Yue said: "Students remember."

Zhang Yue walked around with Zhang Youzhi by his arm, but saw that Zhang Wangzhi had brought his little granddaughter to visit Zhang Youzhi.

Zhang Yue bowed his hands to meet, Zhang Wangzhi smiled and said straight to Zhang You: "I said that this son is not a thing in the pool, but now he is really promising."

Zhang Yue said with a smile: "I still have a make-up exam in Beijing, so I can't be called a student."

Zhang Wangzhi raised his face and said: "You are still so cautious, you are afraid that you will be full of words."

Zhang Yue smiled and said, "I'm used to being reprimanded by my husband, so I dare not speak out loud."

Zhang Wangzhi said solemnly: "When you talk big, you need to talk big, otherwise it will appear too fake. But I heard that the academic rules of Taixue are strict, and there are rules everywhere, and the teachers are not easy to get along with. If you You committed a crime and were expelled from the Taixue, let me see if you have the face to see Jiang Dong's elders again."

Zhang Yuezhi Zhang Wangzhi's speech has always been unpleasant, but this is all a kind reminder to himself.He said: "Remember the words of the ministry."

After Zhang Wangzhi reprimanded himself, Zhang Yue saw his little granddaughter looking at him resentfully.

Zhang Yue looked at his little granddaughter and asked, "What's the matter?"

The little granddaughter said with red eyes: "You heartless man, you agreed to play chess with me, but you haven't played a game yet!"

Hearing what the little granddaughter said, Zhang Yue couldn't laugh or cry, and the two teachers also laughed.

"Then what should I do? I'll play another game of chess with you!"

"No more, you lower your head, and I will have a few words with you."

"Okay!" Zhang Yue bent down, but seeing the spring in the academy just in time, the wind blowing through the treetops, and the sound of reading books outside the Rijin Hall, he felt calm. At this moment, he actually thought that the inkstone pond in front of the Rijin Hall should be Hua Ice it.

After the little granddaughter said a few words, she giggled and laughed. Although Zhang Yue didn't hear it very clearly, she still laughed.

"In the future, at the Golden Luan Hall, I will definitely ask the officials for you!" Zhang Yue said.

The little granddaughter nodded and said, "You mean what you say!"

"That's it," Zhang Yue said with a smile, "My nephew has come to study the family, so you will take care of it for me."

"Okay, I promise you. You also have to remember." The little granddaughter smiled brightly.

"Yue'er, follow me to the academy!" Zhang Wangzhi said.

Zhang Yue said: "The student has exactly this intention."

Zhang Wangzhi said: "But since you are going to Beijing, I have something for you to do. Send me some letters."

Zhang Yue said: "Just give orders to the ministry."

Zhang Wangzhi nodded and said, "Tomorrow I will send it to your home."

Zhang Youzhi asked from the side, "Are you sending it to Uncle Ouyang Yong again?"

Zhang Wangzhi stroked his beard and smiled, "It's true."

Zhang Youzhi smiled slightly and said: "Uncle Ouyang Yong asked me for a seal script inscription, and now he also entrusts Sanlang to send it to Beijing."

Zhang Wangzhi smiled and said: "You really know how to send people, but I don't know that there are so many things, Saburo can't memorize them."

Zhang You straight stroked his beard and laughed loudly: "A young man, there is no one who can't bear hardships."

Zhang Yue knew that Uncle Ouyang Yong was the famous Ouyang Xiu.

Zhang Wangzhi, Zhang Youzhi and Ouyang Xiu all have very good friendships, which can be called sympathy.

In the name of sending letters, calligraphy and paintings, these two people's real purpose is to recommend themselves to Ouyang Xiu!
It goes without saying who Ouyang Xiu is.Sansu, Zeng Gong, and Wang Anshi, the chief examiners of Jiayou's second-year provincial examination in the previous subject, were all single-handedly selected by him.

Now I am going to pay my respects as Zhang's nephew.

Zhang Yue felt a lot of emotion in his heart, and everyone came to the Rijin Hall.

Zhang You said straightly: "Don't be timid when you meet Uncle Ouyang Yong, you can answer truthfully whatever he asks you, remember."

"Yes."

Zhang Yue had already stood outside the window screen and looked into the hall. Zhang Qiu was sitting in the first row, reading poems and books seriously, his voice still so immature.Sure enough, he is the youngest among all the students in the class.

"Sanlang, do you want to call him?" Zhang You asked straight.

Zhang Yue shook his head and said: "Let him study, if he knows I'm leaving, I don't know how to cry."

After speaking, Zhang Yue took out a box from his arms, which contained a Zihao pen.When Zhang Qiu went to the ancestry school, he asked himself for gifts. Zhang Yue knew what Zhang Qiu was arguing about, and he just wanted him to come to the ancestry school to see him from time to time.

Zhang Yue said: "Sir, please pass it on to him for me."

Zhang You accepted it directly and said, "That's fine."

Zhang Yue looked at Zhang Qiu who was studying, his eyes were wet unconsciously, and he turned to bid farewell to the two teachers.

"Student farewell!"
