Start with detective Li Yuanfang

Chapter 694 Mountains are high and rivers are long, goodbye!
The first day of the Lunar New Year, the day of Yuanshuo.

Li Yan got up to wash, and Xiao Hei squatted beside him, brushing his teeth together.

Thinking that in future generations it will be even more difficult than bathing a cat, that is, brushing the cat's teeth. Even Xiao Hei was reluctant to brush his teeth in the past, but now he will take the initiative on his own, Li Yan's mouth slightly raised.

And Xiao Heima finished washing quickly, came to the martial arts training ground in the backyard, looked at the messy subordinates, and let out a majestic meow.

Mao'er got up, followed Xiao Hei away, and then Lu Junyi and his party seamlessly entered the arena for morning exercises, building up their strength and strengthening their bodies.

It seemed that everything was the same, but they took the initiative to study coordination skills and discuss with each other in twos and threes. Obviously, they were quite different from before. This made Li Yan even more relieved. After breakfast, he finished compiling the final textbook in the study .

When Jiang Jing came in front of him, he just handed it over to him: "Children who have not taken the entrance examination before can start to study this textbook after they have finished the "Three Character Classic" and "Thousand Character Classic". Publish a book."

Jiang Jing took it, and found that the title of the cover was written with the word "Science" and the number "Beginner Volume [-]". Is it the solution test, the provincial test and the palace test part, is this the book?"

Li Yan shook his head and said: "The "Five Years and Three Years" series are test papers, and this set is teaching materials. The nature of the two is different, and they can be used together. You can use the test papers to thoroughly understand the teaching materials."

Jiang Jing was a little moved: "Brother, you compiled a set of teaching materials specifically for science?"

Li Yandao: "Yes, this is also a theory!"

Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, it has been promoting that "everything is inferior, only reading is high". Generations of brainwashing, plus the social respect and substantial benefits received by a Jinshi, are indeed worthy of "the book has its own golden house, There is a saying in the book "Yan Ruyu", all social strata naturally flock to the imperial examination.

Li Yan is familiar with all major events in history. From the lessons of countless predecessors, he clearly knows that regardless of whether one's starting point is good or not, if it runs counter to the atmosphere of the whole society, there will be absolutely no good results.

So what he has to do is to change and guide ingeniously, don't you like the imperial examination, then I will promote the road of science.

Of course, the words should be more beautiful: "The academic atmosphere of the Song Dynasty is excellent, Confucianism is clear and practical, and the interpretation of ancient classics tends to be practical."

"Such as Wang Wengong's Xinxue, Sima Wengong's Shuoxue, Mr. Dongpo's Shuxue, Mr. Hengqu's Guanxue, Cheng Brothers' Luoxue...all flourished for a while, and other schools of thought also had their own. The saving grace, such a collision and contention of ideas, is probably only the contention of a hundred schools of thought dating back to the pre-Qin period."

Of course, Jiang Jing understands that the current academic atmosphere is changing from the old to bringing forth the new, and the major academies have new academic ideas bursting out every session, but he still thinks it is exaggerated: "But science is no different from others. I didn’t dare to use science as my own theory…”

Li Yandao: "The main purpose of the imperial examination is to evaluate the candidates' knowledge reserve and intelligence level, but it also contains many truths of life. Why did Songyang Academy fail before? They were defeated by a seemingly simple one. There are still many philosophies of life contained in the method of "submitting papers in advance", and my teaching materials are the same, you can take a look."

Jiang Jing opened it, looked at the contents of this volume, and was startled.

He can understand some items, such as font shape, word meaning, sentence meaning, reading comprehension, composition, etc., and some items are more confused, such as nature, dialectics, image numbers, personnel affairs, government affairs, etc.

The point is, this is just the first book for beginners, isn't there more content in the future?

Li Yan smiled and said: "Don't be burdened. We are neither a big academy nor a famous Confucianist. We just teach first and see how the effect is."

His concept has always been to win people first, and then act.

In the world of the Tang Dynasty, there was a ready-made system of the Tang Dynasty court. After the inner guards made great progress, it was only natural to train confidantes.

In the world of the Song Dynasty, the difficulty of deciding to change the dynasty naturally doubled. Everything started from scratch, and even the deep-rooted thought of loyalty to the emperor had to be considered.

Therefore, Suian Academy is an extremely critical link in Li Yan's vision. To establish academic authority, from a long-term perspective, important functions and bases go hand in hand. Civil and military are indispensable, which is what he wants to change the dynasty.

Jiang Jing suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders was heavy, and nodded heavily: "Please rest assured, brother, I will definitely do my best!"

Li Yandao: "You also study hard. This year is the year of the imperial examination. No matter what the court environment is, it is something to be proud of to stand out among the students all over the world with your own ability and get a title on the gold list!"

Jiang Jing's eyes were bright, and he cupped his hands and said, "Yes!"

Just as Jiang Jing was holding the textbooks, ready to get the moon and ask for advice, Shi Qian suddenly jumped in: "Brother, something happened! Kaifeng prefect Wu Juhou was wiped out, and the murderer is suspected to be Judge Ding!"

Li Yan was not surprised when he heard the words, but his expression sank: "So fast?"

……

"Judge Ding, why did you leave me!!"

At the same time, inside Gao's house.

Hearing Gao Lian crying in the room, Gao Lian outside and Jiao Ting who arrived looked at each other in blank dismay.

The news they got was that Wu Juhou's family was killed by Ding Run. Why did they hear this sad tone, as if it was the other way around?
After the movement inside finally calmed down, the two of them walked in.

Jiao Ting has just been valued by Gao Qiu recently, and it is difficult to speak out on such important matters. After all, Gao Lian is the other party's cousin, so he leaned forward and said: "Gao Tiju, Judge Ding should be fine, but now civil servants are here. Please order in the palace, the fire in Prince Jian's mansion has not been a few days, and such a big case happened again, what should we do?"

Gao Qiu, with red eyes, said angrily, "You still call him a job at home?"

Gao Lian: "..."

Gao Qiu also knew it was wrong to anger his cousin, but he still couldn't help but said sadly: "You don't understand, Judge Ding and I are so close, we catch thieves together, eradicate traitors together, ransack the house together... But now, there will be no more Such an opportunity!"

He was really sad, he didn't expect to receive such bad news on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and he knew that this incident would definitely make the imperial court furious.

The magistrate of Kaifeng is not only a reserve for the prime minister, but also represents the face of the capital of the capital. Such a high-ranking official died in the mansion on the first day of the new year, and his whole family was slaughtered. The impact is really bad.

So Gao Qiu managed to suppress his emotions, and said, "Prepare the horse! Enter the palace and obey orders!"

Several fast horses left Gao's house and headed towards the palace.

There are not many pedestrians on the road, and Bianjing is rarely deserted, but it will definitely be lively again from tomorrow, and it will continue to be lively until the Lantern Festival.

For the officials, there are seven days off in the new year, so those who were alarmed today were working extra overtime, but when Gao Qiu passed by the Kaifeng government office where dejected officials were coming in and out, he immediately stopped his horse.

It's not because the top official of the Kaifeng government office is gone, but someone who kills thousands of knives is so diligent, and actually puts a wanted portrait in the center of the wanted notice in front of the yamen.

Without a doubt, it was Ding Run.

Looking at Ding Run who is juxtaposed with Gongsun Zhao, the painting is quite similar, his big head is very charming, and Gao Qiu has mixed feelings in his heart. Before, he was arresting the cult thieves and parading the streets together. One was called Qingtian and the other was called Yan Luo, why suddenly? Is there a conflict between them?

Just as he was feeling sad again, a flash of light flashed out of the corner of his eye, and a familiar figure seemed to pass by.

Gao Qiu's complexion changed slightly, and he got off his horse: "Go to the palace and wait first, I will look for clues in the Kaifeng government office."

Gao Lian and Jiao Ting's complexion changed, but they saw that Gao Qiu had strode in, after thinking about it, he still didn't dare to disobey, and rode away.

And Gao Qiu came to a corner of the Kaifeng government office, not far from the house where Ding Run originally handled the case, and saw a big head sticking out, smiling at him and saying: "Brother Gao!"

Gao Qiu's expression was extremely complicated: "Ding...Brother Ding, why are you bothering?"

Ding Run gave a brief account of Wu Juhou and Zhao Tingzhi's plan: "If I make a move now, I can take advantage of my unpreparedness and vent my anger. When I am actually sued by them in front of the officials, they will not say anything about their precautions. They will also send people to arrest me, officers and soldiers are useless against cultists, they may be very capable in arresting their own people, then I can only run away in desperation, thinking about it makes me angry, so it is better to act first!"

Gao Qiu was very dissatisfied: "They want to slander you, why don't you tell me and Mr. Lin first, don't you believe that we can protect you?"

Ding Run smiled: "Brother Gao, I'm different from you. I do have something wrong with me. I took bribes and got a lot of benefits. They don't call it slander, they can only call it targeting. After all, it's not a big deal to embezzle some money on weekdays. Officials are all corrupt, but when it comes to infighting, it is the best excuse to attack."

"Some things cannot be avoided. The court has always been like this. I saw it clearly when I was in the Imperial City Division. It's just that at that time I was too poor to have any chance of corruption. Later, I became a judge because Gongsun Zhao was on the wanted list. Now I'm going up too!"

"The wanted portrait was posted by myself, and it was the last thing I did as a judge. It's quite interesting to think about it..."

Speaking of this, Ding Run looked up to the sky and sighed: "I used to think that my junior brother was rigid and pedantic, so I would hit a wall everywhere and couldn't be a high-ranking official. It wasn't until I entered the Kaifeng government office from the Imperial City Division that I realized that it wasn't all Gongsun Zhao's fault. The world is like this, what can I do?"

Gao Qiu opened his mouth, wanting to speak, but didn't know what to say.

Ding Run sighed for a moment, restrained his emotions, and said seriously: "You and I have hit it off, and I came to see brother Gao, mainly to ask, is there anything that I need to cooperate with, which made me give up my life, and it is impossible to surrender Yes, but other things can help a little bit, after all, this matter is likely to affect you..."

Gao Qiu was moved and felt that he could not let go of this friendship. He even said flatly, "Leave the city as soon as possible without asking Mr. Lin first!"

Ding Run smiled and said, "It's not over yet, but don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you..."

He stared at Gao Qiu deeply, and wanted to speak, but in the end, it turned into a heavy fist and the last sentence: "The mountains are high and the rivers are long, goodbye!"

Watching Ding Run's free and easy back disappear from sight, Gao Qiu's eyes were red, and tears finally couldn't help falling down.

A dash of sadness, a dash of hesitation.
