Datang: Ten Years of Proton, Leading an Army of Millions to Return

If things continue to develop in that way, the Royal Military Academy will likely become an independent force. Even if the Great Yan nation is destroyed, it might still exist!
Just like the Kong family, the change of dynasties did not affect its status at all, which can be regarded as the true status of the Central Plains.
Dinghai Shenzhen!

Moreover, the emergence of this academy also provided an idea, a way to disintegrate the aristocratic families.

The emperor may come and go, but the family remains forever!
Those guys have monopolized education, and most of the elites come from aristocratic families.

Actually, this is nothing. The key is that they believe that the interests of the family are above everything else, above the interests of the country and the people. Just ask...

Which ambitious and heroic leader can tolerate such behavior?
Cao Cao also suppressed aristocratic families; Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty required each state to "tribute three people each year" to take the "scholar" examination; and Yang Guang set up the Jinshi examination to recruit scholars!

The examples above are too numerous to list!
Guo Shoujing wanted to wait until the time was ripe before restarting the imperial examination system. The way this military academy runs its school can be used as a reference.

"Assessment... Using sand table deduction as the assessment result! If there is a war, you can also go to the army to accumulate military merits and obtain credits. When the course is over, will the military rank be determined based on military merits? The key is..."

He frowned and said, "Where do so many wars come from in our Great Yan? There are wars every year...Won't His Majesty be accused of being a warmongerer?"

When the latter part was mentioned, Guo Shoujing's face also turned dark!
As a prime minister of a country, this is what I fear the most. I always exaggerate things, saying that it is a waste of money and labor, and that the king will ruin the country...
"We can train troops on the border! Nanzhao, Laotians, Tubo, Goguryeo... Anyway, there are so many countries bordering us, so why should we worry about not being able to train troops?"

Ma Zhou said nonchalantly.

Only after accumulating enough credits can you apply for graduation and take the graduation assessment!

Taking into account that large-scale battles are not always available, the content of the assessment can be determined according to the situation!

The Royal Military Academy has a strict admission and graduation policy. Those who graduate must have gone through devilish training and are the elite among the elites!

Otherwise, how could he be worthy of the title of “the emperor’s disciple”?

His meaning is also very simple!
Those troops stationed on the border can't just be used as decoration, right? Instead of just passively defending, it's better to take the initiative to attack and train the soldiers!

Whenever there is a war, the college can issue missions for students to take on and complete, thereby earning credits and military merit.

Credits and military merit, these two are extremely important to students!

The former means whether one can graduate successfully, while the latter means how high the starting point will be after entering the army.

This military academy trains the purest soldiers. Everything is linked to the army and does not involve the court.

"interesting…"

A smile appeared on Guo Shoujing's face, and soon his expression became extremely excited.

When Ma Zhou saw this scene, he realized that the matter was done and he breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, there were too many things to do this time, and they were all extremely important. He was a little unsure, so he simply went there in person.

Locust plague, Gewuyuan, Royal Military Academy!
These three things are extremely important, especially to completely separate the Institute of Gewu and the academy from the political arena!

He didn't want the two deadly weapons he had worked so hard to set up to only become wedding dresses and be used by others to control power.

Walk out from here
They should all be the purest scholars and soldiers!

These are the backbone of the nation!

Of course, what Ma Zhou proposed was just a rough framework. As for more content, he had to discuss it with Heshen and others before he could decide.

"The matter of the military academy can be raised together when the various families are gathered to discuss the 'Flame Alliance'. With the adults coming forward, the resistance will be less."

Guo Shoujing pondered for a moment, then frowned and said, "The Institute of Gewu is a little difficult to deal with. It's hard to find people. Do you want to..."

It’s hard to find, but it’s not impossible!
"do not want!"

Ma Zhou blurted out, while Sui Ji sat there calmly, with no intention of letting go!

What to do is not his concern. You can't ask him to look for someone all over the world, right?

no point!
Seeing that this boy had no intention of sharing the burden, Guo Shoujing felt helpless and said with a smile:
"No wonder His Majesty always says that you are like a little fox, so cunning and clever!"

"Hey! I'm very busy!" he said seriously.

"If you say this again, believe it or not, I will punish you?" Guo Shoujing snorted coldly.

After a moment's silence, he waved his hand and said, "Okay. I'll ask Kong Jijiu and others for their opinions on the matter of the Institute of Gewu. You..."

"Would you like to say a few more words so as to serve as a warning to the Institute of Gewu?"

Guo Shoujing's eyes were sharp.

He knew that this kid was very talented, and to say that he was 'extremely talented' was an understatement.

Don’t forget, on the wedding night, fireworks and love poems were blooming, each of which can be called the best song in ancient times.…

This matter has already spread in the literary world!
If it weren't for his current high status, there would probably be a lot of scholars coming to him to compete with him.

Of course, given Ma Zhou's personality, he would probably just have them thrown out.
"Police training? What police training?" Ma Zhou scratched his head.

Guo Shoujing's mouth twitched: "It's just like what you said just now, afraid of death..."

"This can be used as a kind of inheritance spirit of the Institute of Gewu!"

"Ok?"

Ma Zhou looked suspicious.

Looking at his expression, there was a hint of malicious smile in his face. I guess he was waiting to see someone make a fool of himself?
After all, how can such a sentence come out of your mouth easily?

but.…

Li Qiu spoke slowly!
"Establish a mind for heaven and earth..."

"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the living and the people, carry forward the unique teachings of the past saints, and create peace for all generations!"

The sonorous and powerful voice echoed in the hall, and every word was pronounced with great emphasis, which made Guo Shoujing feel very excited.

But soon his old face drooped, and he looked a little depressed.

It's not like you don't know what this kid is capable of, but you still have to extend your old face to him for no reason. Do you feel relieved now?
"Clap!"

After several slaps, his old face was swollen!
"Master Guo?"

Seeing that the damn Guo Shoujing didn't say anything, his face looked as ugly as if he had swallowed a dead fly. Ma Zhou raised the corner of his mouth slightly and shouted in a very 'tactful' way...
Beautiful!
I told you to be uncomfortable no matter what, so you have to pretend to be cool, right?
"Ok?"

Guo Shoujing uttered a light exclamation and raised his head, just in time to see the mischievous smile on the boy's face, and his face suddenly turned even darker.

"Ahem... Lord Guo. Is this sentence appropriate to be put in the Institute of Gewu?"

Ma Zhou still had a desire to survive. Seeing this, he coughed twice and said seriously.

“Suitable…suitable…”

The corners of Guo Shoujing's mouth twitched and he spoke in a hoarse voice.

This brat is so hateful!

After answering, he didn't say much. Ganlu Hall fell into silence for a while. Ma Zhou sat aside calmly, drinking tea and eating cakes without disturbing anyone. His eyes were still full of innocence.

Guo Shoujing sucked his teeth and became even more angry when he saw his innocent expression. However, there was nothing he could do. He could only frown and fall into deep thought.

Although he appears calm on the surface, his heart is already in turmoil!

If that awesome statement just now were to spread, it would certainly cause a lot of heated discussion, especially in the entire literary world, which would be in an uproar and would have a far-reaching impact.

Countless readers will flock to this and take this sentence as their guiding principle, or even as the goal they strive for throughout their lives!

Even if others read it, it is catchy and moving!
Originally he wanted to tease Ma Zhou, but he never thought that this kid could really come up with some wonderful sentences that would be passed down through the ages. Who could stand that?

After sitting for a while longer, seeing that it was getting late outside and the three things had been finalized, Ma Zhou wanted to slip away as soon as possible.

He seemed to have said that "determination" speech before!
In order to avoid being caught by this damn Guo Shoujing and looking for an opportunity to scold me, I wanted to get back at him, but
If I blurt out another brilliant sentence and slap him in the face again, wouldn't that be embarrassing?
"Sir Guo, my family is waiting for me to go back and cook! I won't disturb you now, I'll take my leave now..." Ma Zhou said.

Guo Shoujing's fingers, which were still tapping, stopped, and several black lines appeared on his forehead.

Listen, is this what people say?

Such a big family, just waiting for you, a great writer, to come back and cook?

Now you are too lazy to even find a reason. Are you going to be so perfunctory?
He glared at her fiercely, then waved his hand and said, "Alright, alright, get out of here!"

Judging from the look on his face, he was about to lose his temper at any moment. Ma Zhou also suppressed his laughter, stood up and bowed:
"Wei Chen resigns!"

After a while, he put some oil on his feet and ran towards the palace gate!

If you delay, something bad will happen. Goodbye!

"correct!"

At this moment, Guo Shoujing seemed to remember something and said hurriedly: "Please make arrangements there in the next two days, I..."

His tone was quite excited:
"I want to go to heaven and have a look!"

"okay!"

Ma Zhou just stopped walking, thinking that something important had happened. He heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words. Soon, without even turning back, he pushed open the thick mahogany door and ran out.

God?

hot air balloon!
It’s not a big deal, it’s very simple!
“This kid…”

When Guo Shoujing saw his leaving back, he just smiled helplessly and then called Chen Lin in.

Pen, ink, paper and inkstone are ready for you!
In about half a cup of tea, Guo Shoujing started writing on a piece of white rice paper!
He wrote in the Feibai style, which was vigorous and agile, with well-controlled tension and relaxation of the strokes. The structure was clear and beautiful, and as elegant and free as poetry.

Many times, Li Kuan ignored the affairs of state and he took over their duties.

Chen Lin was still grinding ink beside him, his eyes staring at her without blinking.

"If you want to get promoted or make money, please take another path. If you are afraid of death, don't enter this door!"

“Establish a mind for heaven and earth…”

There were two sentences in total, written on two pieces of rice paper respectively, and then spread out on the table. Guo Shoujing's face was full of smiles as he admired them.

"Good, good! This kid is really talented! It's a pity that he is a little lazy! If he could serve as an official in the court..."

"Within two years, I will ask His Majesty to appoint you as Prime Minister!"

He praised repeatedly, with a look of regret on his face, and then shook his head, still a little depressed.

Become prime minister within two years?
Chen Lin, who was standing by, also looked shocked!
Even the hand that was grinding the ink couldn't help but tremble a little!

Today, Dayan is full of talented people, especially those in the court.

Lord Guo actually compared Ma Zhou with these people. It seems that he still highly respects him. In his mind, the status of Ma Zhou is even higher than theirs!
Don't forget that Ma Zhou never held an office in the court and could be said to have no foundation at all. These two years were, to be more precise, used to lay the foundation for him!
This means that his talent has now reached that level!

Good enough to be a prime minister!

Eunuch Chen swallowed his saliva and made up his mind to maintain a good relationship with Ma Zhou. After all, don't forget that he is only in his teens and still very young!

Guo Shoujing did not notice anything unusual about Chen Lin, or perhaps he was too lazy to pay attention.

As the head of the eunuchs, he must have some idea of ​​what is going on, and he must not tell anyone about it.

He was still looking at the two pieces of rice paper with great interest, and it was unclear whether he was appreciating the excellent Feibai style calligraphy or pondering and savoring the two sentences…
Before we knew it, night had fallen!
Mrs. Guo also came in with a food box and saw His Majesty still standing in front of the small table, with Chen Lin bowing and serving him.

She also came over curiously, and when she saw the words on the rice paper, her expression changed and she said in shock: "This... Which great scholar said this?

Mrs. Guo also came from a prominent family and had some literary background. When she saw the words written on the rice paper, she was quickly shocked.

Guo Shoujing smiled mysteriously, "Madam, this is not the work of a great scholar. Can you guess who it is?"

"Not a great scholar...?"

Mrs. Guo pondered for a while, then her eyes suddenly lit up and she asked, "Ma Zhou?"

"Ha ha!"

Guo Shoujing laughed in silence, nodded, and said after a while: "It is indeed this kid..."

"this!"

Empress Changsun was even more shocked.

If he was not a great scholar, how could he have written such a statement about "establishing one's mind and destiny"?
"This kid can't be judged by common sense!" Perhaps he saw her doubts, Guo Shoujing murmured.

Then he waved his hand again and sent Chen Lin out. After the palace door slowly closed, he put his arm around Chang Sun's waist and said:
"Do you know why he came to see me?"

"I don't know. It's not that simple."

Mrs. Guo shook her head.

In her impression, Ma Zhou seldom went to the palace, and now that he went there in person, the matter involved must be quite serious.

“This kid…”

Guo Shoujing spoke slowly.

He and Mrs. Guo were married forever and had been together for more than ten years. Of course, their feelings were very deep and there were almost no secrets between them.

"Locust plague?"

Hearing these two extremely terrifying words, Mrs. Guo was also frightened.
