Chapter 959 The Academy and the Imperial Examination

Daniel looked back at Duan Lun and said, "You think so too?"

Duan Lun handed Daniel a roasted sweet potato, "Everyone knows it in their hearts, but His Royal Highness King Jin doesn't understand."

After receiving the warm sweet potato, Daniel sat at the entrance of the academy and ate every bite, "When I was young, I thought that the future would be the same, but now I think that the future will not be like this."

Duan Lun still smiled and said nothing more.

Li Zhi still wrote a letter and sent it to the palace. After this letter entered the palace, there was no news for several days, as if nothing had disappeared.

With the arrival of a drizzle, the new year has also arrived.

When the sky was about to dawn, Wang Ding stood at the gate of Chang'an City and read out Li Shimin's will for the new year.

A notice has been pasted on the gate of the city.

In the tenth year of Zhenguan, the first thing to do is the imperial examination that will start after the spring planting.

The next step is the visit of envoys from various countries.

There are farming and donations in various places, as well as the rotation of officials, and the evaluation of officials in the new year.

For the new year, there are many changes that need to be made. The biggest change is the imperial examination, which is open to all scholars.

Regardless of origin, regardless of status can participate in the imperial examination.

Spring in Jingyang is also the busiest time of the year.

The villagers were all busy in the fields, and Li Zheng was sitting by the river in Jingyang fishing with a fishing rod.

Li Daxiong looked at his son for a long time, stepped forward and said, "Son, do you think our village is busy now?"

Li Zheng looked away from the river and looked at Li Daxiong, "Our village is really busy. I just caught two fish today. Shall we grill them?"

Li Daxiong looked at his son and said: "They all said that you are very sober. As a father, I think you are quite good."

Li is starting to burn a bonfire by the river to prepare grilled fish.

"Did you understand what I said?" Li Daxiong said impatiently.

"I understand, I understand, our village is not always busy." Li Zheng began to kill fish.

"Why is our village so busy? There are always one or two people who are so busy." Li Daxiong approached and said.

Washing the freshly killed fish in his hands, Li Zheng thought about it and said, "Is there always someone so idle?"

Li Daxiong nodded seriously, "Yes."

Li Zheng glanced back at the village, and said in a low voice, "Could it be that our village also has local ruffians?"

After speaking, Li Zheng frowned and said in thought: "That's not right."

Li Daxiong looked at his son's skillful way of grilling fish and said, "What's wrong."

Li Zheng clamped the fish to each iron bar and said: "There are more than 2000 households in our village. Even women and children, most of them have jobs, let alone men. Today's printing factories and pig factories There is still a shortage of manpower, and the jobs are not saturated, so how can there be idlers when there is a shortage of manpower."

Li Daxiong said again: "Who do you think is an idler?"

Li Zheng lighted the fire skillfully, thought for a while and said, "Could it be His Royal Highness King Wei?"

"His Royal Highness King Wei is a guest! How could he be an idler?" Li Daxiong said with his hands in his sleeves.

"Speaking of which, this fat man has been eating and drinking for nothing for years." Li Zheng added a few wooden sticks to fuel the fire.

Li Daxiong's clothes were patched a lot, but they were clean, and the sleeves were also clean.

Li Zheng looked at his clothes subconsciously. Although the clothes were not very expensive, they were also new clothes.

How many years have passed, Li Daxiong has been wearing those old clothes all the time, it is not that he has not given him new clothes, Li Lizhi has given clothes, even the palace has sent clothes, no matter what, the father of a county prince can't Always dressed like an old farmer.

Li Daxiong has been a farmer since he was a child.

Even if it was the clothes given to Li Daxiong, he kept it carefully and didn't wear it.

Li Zheng said: "I said your clothes have faded, change into new clothes."

Li Daxiong said with an annoyed expression: "The new clothes don't fit well."

Li Daxiong has always used this excuse to prevaricate.

Li Daxiong said softly: "You really don't know?"

Li Zheng frowned and said, "If there is such a person, I will definitely find him out."

Li Daxiong laughed, then got up and turned to leave.

"You don't want to eat fish!" Li Zheng yelled at Li Daxiong.

Li Daxiong waved his hand, shook his head and walked away step by step.

The fish is not very big, so it doesn't need to be baked for too long to be cooked. Li Zheng increased the heat, and the surface of the fish will be a little crispy and the taste will be better.

Sprinkle some salt and eat it after a while.

Li Tai came after smelling the smell, "Did you know? The imperial examination will start after the spring planting."

Li Zheng turned Yu Yu's face and said, "I'm not interested in imperial examinations."

Li Tai said again: "You said whether the children in our academy can take the imperial examination."

While speaking, Li Tai had already picked up a grilled fish and started to eat it.

Li Zheng casually grilled the fish and said, "Just now my father said that there are idlers in our village."

"Huh?" Li Tai asked curiously, "Who is it?"

"I said it was you, but my father said you are a guest, you are not an idler."

Li Tai nodded knowingly, "I am indeed a guest."

Li Zheng said again: "Then who is this idler?"

Li Tai said: "There are so many people in the village, how do I know, does everyone ask once?"

Li Zhengchang sighed and said: "I know the situation in Jingyang very well. It stands to reason that most people have jobs, and even those who don't have jobs are included in the guards. How can there be idlers?"

After hearing these words, Li Tai looked up at the villagers working in the field and said, "There is such a large piece of fertile land in Jingyang, the guards even have to dispatch people to plow the land, and the whole village is busy with this year's farming, so you can relax by yourself." You can even grill the fish."

Li Zheng said: "You eat and drink for nothing for so many years, and you call me an idler?"

Li Tai smiled awkwardly, "You are the most idle person in the village."

Li Zheng ate the fish slowly and said, "Don't talk about me, maybe I'm too free."

Li Tai nodded and ate the fish and said, "I put less salt."

The sunshine in spring was very comfortable. Li Zheng looked at Li Taidi and said: "You said that your father sent troops to our Jingyang side to practice. The tens of thousands of troops have been practicing for more than two months, and there is no end to it."

Li Tai smiled helplessly, "It doesn't mean that there are killers who want to kill you, these tens of thousands of troops are all protecting you."

"To put it nicely, it's protection. Whose soldiers and horses have practiced around a village for more than two months. Those who don't know think that your father is going to attack Jingyang."

"How about I talk to my father?"

"Forget it, it's useless if you say it." Li Zheng said compromised.

Li Tai said again: "By the way, don't the students in our academy take the imperial examination?"

Li Zheng said in a low voice: "The academy will not teach knowledge related to imperial examinations, it will not interfere with government affairs, and is completely independent."
