As a salted fish, I was forced to become the teacher of all ages

But this time there were a lot of people gathered for the court meeting, all the six departments came, and more than half of the Ministry of Rites and half of the Ministry of Officials came, and then...

An unprecedented group fight broke out.

……

Yin'an Hall.

"Report! Your Highness, Yang Ge was knocked down during the incident!"

"Report! Your Highness, after Mr. Qin and Mr. Fang got into a fight, they never thought they would bump into someone in the official department, and then the three of them rolled into a ball..."

"Report! Your Highness, Mr. Zhang Langzhong from the Ministry of Rites joined the battle and kicked Wu Jishi's lifeblood. That kick was simply exquisite and miraculous. Wu Jishi screamed so miserable... ..."

"Report! Your Highness, Shen Shilang couldn't take it anymore and wanted to pull everyone away, but someone punched him in the eye, and he was black and blue immediately, Shen Shilang also started beating!"

When the court meeting started, Hua Manlou happened to be drinking tea and chatting with Zhao Ren. After hearing that the court meeting had started to fight, Zhao Ren sent all the eunuchs in the Yin'an Palace out to let them inquire about the situation, and then ...

For some reason, it was still a report at the beginning, and after a while it became a live broadcast.

Zhao Ren laughed so hard that tears came out: "Oh, these idiots...what are you trying to figure out?"

Hua Manlou has a black thread: "If you disagree with each other, you will fight. What's wrong with that? You're still reading a sage's book..."

When it comes to official fights, the same is true of the civil servants in the Ming Dynasty, and there were cases of beating people to death in front of the emperor, so that some people joked that whether they can fight is the standard for being a good civil servant...

outrageous.

If you have the ability, go and fight with Tatars and Japanese pirates?

In fact, Hua Manlou and Zhao Ren were not the only ones watching the fun, and Xu Dacheng, an honest man, was also extremely unkind—theoretically, he should report to Emperor Guangxing immediately after receiving the news, but he was stunned for two days. It took the time for the incense sticks to arrive at the imperial study room, so that when Emperor Guangxing arrived on the battlefield, the fight had already been finished.

The battle situation can be said to be quite tragic. A total of more than [-] people have bruised noses, swollen faces and nosebleeds, seven people are unconscious, three people have broken nose bridges, two people have lost their back molars, and the most unlucky one has been taken to the Imperial Hospital. It is said that the lower body... may not lift for the rest of my life...

Emperor Guangxing was furious, and kicked out the palace after scolding these lawless civil servants bloody, and the court discussion came to nothing.

Ordinarily, this matter should be over. After all, the stereotype debate directly led to the largest group fight in Guangxing Dynasty. In theory, people who are interested should not mention this, but who ever thought that the total Fifteen officials jointly signed a petition, demanding the abolition of stereotyped writing.

This thing is a little weird.

Those who opposed the abolition of stereotyped writing were already outraged, but when they saw that the other party brought up the issue again as if they were provocative, they almost exploded. His heart should be punished.

The morning court was in chaos again that day. Although there was no fight, more people joined the debate, which affected the entire court.

And along with this early court, the stereotype debate began to spread among the scholars.

Similarly, whether or not to abolish stereotyped writing is also a polarized situation among scholars, and the quarrel is more intense, because after all, this matter concerns their future.

Those who study stereotyped writing are naturally opposed to the abolition, and they hold high the banner of standing up for the sages to criticize their opponents; those who are not good at stereotyped writing naturally agree with the abolition—this group of people accounts for the majority, but they can also fight against each other from various aspects. The fight is evenly matched.

All of a sudden, scholars can be seen everywhere in various places in the capital divided into two groups, arguing, scolding, spitting, and fighting.

The chaos lasted for two full days, and it had reached the point where it could not be cleaned up. On the morning of this day, Liu Chao planned to end in person.

After all, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is what he did. Although no one can guess whether Liu Chao wants to rely on this political achievement or gain attention, many people hold back after reacting. Stomach fire: Is your servant Liu in a panic?It's fun to see everyone pinching up?

And it is enough that things have fermented to this extent. The most important thing right now is to quell the chaos, and the best way to quell the chaos is to propose a compromise, for example, to reduce the proportion of stereotyped essays in the imperial examination.

however……

Early in the morning, several furtive figures appeared near the Imperial College.

"Tsk, it's so messed up, I can't tell who is the villain for a while."

"Then what do you say, do you want to do it? If you don't do it, I'll call it a timeout now!"

"Do!"

(still finished writing, tired, sleep)

641. Waste utilization

In the past few days, scholars in the capital have been very excited, especially in the Imperial College.

What is the Guozijian?

Generally speaking, this place is the highest institution of higher learning in Dazhao, as well as the educational management institution, which was called Taixue in the Han Dynasty.

At the time when Da Zhao was first established, the Guozijian was at its peak, and many people were proud of entering the Guozijian, because at that time it was easy for a student of the Guozijian to become an official—the world has just settled down, and there is a shortage of talents in all aspects, so as long as you enter the Guozijian Entering the Guozijian is equivalent to stepping into the officialdom.

In addition, Zhao Taizu was as irritable as a certain cowherd boy Taizu, and killed several officials from time to time. When many people went to court, they didn't know whether they would go home alive.But after the killing, the officials had to make up for it, but at that time the imperial examination had not been carried out much, and the reserve of officials was obviously not enough, so Taizu always recruited a few people from the Imperial College to make up the number.

Therefore, Guozijian reached its heyday in the second generation. At its peak, there were nearly [-] Jiansheng, and all kinds of ghosts and snakes put their nephews here.

And with the gradual prosperity of the imperial examination, the Guozijian gradually declined-the [-] serious Jinshi of the Imperial Academy are all unemployed, what are you supervisors who have never passed the imperial examination?

As a result, except for some people who still have the intention to take part in the imperial examinations, the supervisors of the Guozijian are all people who want to mix up errands-the Six Departments will occasionally come to screen out, that is, select low-level officials and ordinary employees, and most of the rest are After graduation, he returned to his hometown to become a teacher.

Therefore, the main support for the abolition of stereotyped writing in this debate is the Imperial College students—although after the abolition, this group of half-educated scumbags may not be able to be admitted to Jinshi, but what if the hell?

So the supervising students gathered together early in the morning, intending to continue to make some noise so that the court could hear their voices—to put it simply, they continued to quarrel, fight and spit, in order to keep the heat going.

So who are they fighting with?

People from all over the world are studying in Beijing and plan to participate in the Chunwei Festival, who else can there be?

Reviewing in the capital to prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination... Most of the people who take the exam are confident that they can pass the exam, or they are apprentices to some high-ranking officials and studied with their teachers, so of course they are people who oppose the abolition of stereotyped writing—reform can be, etc. I'll talk about it after I pass the exam.

So, everyone is actually very realistic...

The Juzi usually stay near the root of the city wall in the southeast of the capital. They also got together early in the morning, and they were obviously worried—they were more well-informed and knew that what happened this time was unusual. , and also know that the court's attitude is still unclear.

But it seems that the spring will be opened next year, and now stereotyped writing is cancelled, so what's the matter with all these years of hard study?

Therefore, their plan is to make some noise so that the court can carefully consider this matter.

however……

When the two parties gathered together, an unfamiliar person suddenly appeared on each side, and shouted in panic: "People have died!"

The scene became chaotic in an instant.

……

"What careless disregard for human life? I call it upholding justice and then reusing waste."

In a teahouse not far from the Imperial College, Hua Manlou pointed at the green-clothed scholar who had hanged on the building signboard at the window, and said contemptuously, "That's the youngest son of Zhang Yuan's family in the west of the city, the Imperial College Student, this bastard has Seven lives."

Zhao Ren's eyes widened: "He killed seven people?"

Hua Manlou nodded and said: "Yes, they all bought the maids from Ren Yazi's family, and each of them died terribly."

Generally speaking, those bought are usually signed with a death contract. Theoretically, whoever buys the property belongs to him.Even if the matter gets bigger, these people still have opinions, such as finding a reason to corrupt the family style and have an affair with others, and then just give the official some money to settle the matter.

These days, even if there are some relevant systems, who speaks for a person who signed a contract of prostitution like nothing, and offends a squire by the way?Even the governor of Shuntian Prefecture probably felt that one more thing is worse than one less thing when he knew about it, because a murder case in the locality would affect his political performance...

Therefore, this special-loving son of Zhang Yuanwai tortured seven little girls to death but has been at large until he met Huamanlou who upheld justice today.

"Bastard! It should be killed!" After Zhao Ren spat, he asked again: "What about Juzi? Is he the same beast?"

Hua Manlou sighed, "It's a beast, but it's not that model. All I can say is that every beast is different..."

On the other side, there is a man who seems to have committed suicide with a knife. He is also a talent near the capital. He was discovered by his father when he was flirting with his little mother, and then...

Together with his young mother, he killed his father.

He was a well-known Juren, and his father was an ordinary squire, so at the time he knew that the old man's death was strange, but the place still hindered Juren's face and didn't go into it.

Now that the old man's bones are already cold, there is no way to verify them, but there are certain things that cannot be covered up. For example, this man bought a small yard to live with his little mother, and cough...

It can only be said that Xuanwuwei's group of killers who like to hunt for novelty are too unethical, they even went to listen to someone's wall, and heard a shocking melon...

"Naughty animal..." Zhao Ren was dumbfounded after hearing the explanation: "Have you read the sage book on the dog?"

Hua Manlou waved his hand: "Here, didn't I send them to meet the sages? So it's just watching a play."

Zhao Ren turned his gaze out of the window, but saw the group of stunned Guozijian students put their classmates down from the archway, and then they found the "will" on that person - it was a person who was heartbroken because of stereotyped essays. The disheartening story, so he heard that the imperial court intends to change the imperial examination, and he wants to use his life to facilitate this.

"Brother Zhang is so strong!"

"Why are you here! Why are you here!"

"Students, I want to take Brother Zhang to the Meridian Gate to wait for today's results. Who wants to lead with me?"

"Come along!"

Going to the Meridian Gate is not to wait for the result at all, but to let the court see this matter.

Many people who are familiar with this brother Zhang feel that this matter is a bit strange, but isn't it just right now to use this matter to put pressure on the court?Anyway, people are gone, if this can promote the reform of the imperial examination, then...

Brother Zhang deserved his death?Is it worth dying?

So no one bothered about the cause of death anymore, a group of people rushed towards the Meridian Gate with Brother Zhang, who was already completely cold.

The plot on the other side is similar to this side, the only difference is that there is a story of 30 years of intensive research on stereotyped writing, so he has to use his life to maintain the existence of stereotyped writing, and also arouses a group of people excited, and then carries them to the afternoon. door rush...

"Wonderful, wonderful!" Zhao Ren, who watched the whole process, clapped his hands and praised: "Sacrificing two beasts can make this happen, and Liu Chao who can still cheat Liu Chao is beyond redemption... Is this the inspiration given by your wife?"

Hua Manlou wiped the sweat off his brow and nodded, "That's right, so I don't dare to make her angry at all now, otherwise I guess I will be miserable..."

"Box box box box box..."

642. Inspiring

When two groups of scholars carried the two brave men who "sacrificed their lives for the truth" approaching the Meridian Gate like pigs carrying the New Year, something went wrong on the Zaochao side.

To be precise, there was trouble on Liu Chao's side, because an unexpected person ended up: Nie Wenbing, who was transferred to the Minister of the Household Department last year.

Chaotang has its own style of play. Generally speaking, big bosses such as the six ministers and cabinet scholars will not easily fight hand-to-hand, especially when there is such chaos in the past few days-unless things have already After they have an idea, they will come out and say a few words to define it.

This is because the water in the court is deep and muddy, and no one knows whether there is a big pit below it before the truth comes out, and who is playing games with whom, so if you end up prematurely, you may be regarded as an enemy, or Being mistakenly participated in the fight by one's own subordinates and then being accidentally injured.

So in the past two days, although the people below have been turned upside down, the big bosses are still the old gods, and they are all leisurely like the general yellow ape, and all they have to do is cut their nails in public with a nail clipper.

But today's situation is a bit outrageous. Originally, Liu Chao's plan was to let the people below continue to argue, and when the battle became fierce, he would end up fighting [-] boards each between the two parties who were arguing endlessly, and then proposed reform issues.But before he left the shift, Nie Wenbing jumped out.

The old man looked very angry, and interrupted the debaters with a yell as if someone had beaten his grandson, then scolded them bloody, and finally said to Emperor Guangxing: "Your Majesty, stereotypes are not allowed!" Abolish! Use the scriptures first to explain the subtle purpose of the holy words and observe the mind. If you don’t use the scriptures as texts, people will ignore the learning of sages and sages! If you abolish the righteousness, I’m afraid no one will read the "Book of the Four Sons" and pay attention to righteousness. !"

When Liu Chao saw this situation, he panicked immediately: "Are you kidding me? It's so easy to quarrel. If you let this matter go on, can Huamanlou let me go?"

So Liu Chao immediately rolled up his sleeves and went into battle: "Your Majesty, the system of imperial examinations has accumulated more and more abuses, and luck has become more and more common...The harm of stereotyped writing is equivalent to burning books!"

Now, those who didn't understand the situation before can understand: My boy, I thought who made the mistake, it turned out to be you!Didn't expect you, Liu Butang, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, to betray the Holy Learning?

What Lao Nie was waiting for was his end, so he turned his head and started pinching Liu Chao immediately, and used words like "national thief" to describe Liu Chao, saying that he had a wicked mind and betrayed the holy teachings, so he should be crucified to death. The pillar of shame.

Liu Chao became furious after being sprayed. He angrily reprimanded Shang Nie for not being able to learn from old books and not thinking about making progress. It is the presence of such old antiques in Guochao that makes ZTE prosperous and not prosperous, and is a stumbling block for the country.

And Liu Chao also explained the benefits of abolishing stereotyped writing, saying that his purpose of reforming stereotyped writing is entirely for His Majesty's great cause of ZTE...

As soon as these words came out, Liu Chao completely became a reformist, and he was short of saying: Yes, that's right, I initiated this matter!

Although Liu Shilang didn't want to do this, he was helpless. Lao Nie had taken advantage of Huamanlou's tour of the southeast the year before last, and his reputation and prestige had risen to a higher level after he came back. The household department, the household department will be able to make a balance, which will make Nie Wenbing more important, so if Liu Chao doesn't end now, then old Nie can really press this matter down, and then...

Liu Chao's heart was bleeding.

But for some reason, Nie Wenbing suddenly stopped talking after hearing that Liu Chao admitted that he initiated the reform himself.

Liu Chao thought it was weird, but he had no choice but to make an arrow, so he continued to state his interests to Emperor Guangxing: "Your Majesty, the disaster of stereotypes will last for thousands of years. Nowadays, there are many people who have been studying the scriptures for more than ten years, but they often ignore the reality. Most of them are ignorant of the world, once they become officials, they hand over the government affairs to the master, it can be said that they are extremely stupid..."

This is the truth. Zhao Ren saw this situation in Lanzhou Mansion before, so he was so angry that he wanted to reform the imperial examination.

Liu Chao spoke with great enthusiasm. He is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials. These kinds of bad things are not uncommon. He listed a series of irrefutable facts to prove his statement. He said that he wanted to really abolish stereotyped writing.

But at this moment, a little Huangmen suddenly ran in from the outside in a hurry, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, it's not good, the scholars in the capital are making trouble at the Meridian Gate!"

After a dozen inquiries, I found out that, good guy, people have been killed!

The whole hall is in an uproar!

It has always been troublesome for scholars to make troubles. This group of famous people can't be beaten or scolded. If they don't settle well, it will cause a situation where the imperial court and the scholar group are alienated, and the mixed society is extremely unstable—you know, maintaining stability But the court's first priority.

That's good now, the reform has not yet been settled, and the scholars have messed up first, is this okay?

But before Emperor Guangxing ordered to appease the scholars, another little yellow gate ran in: "Your Majesty, those scholars are fighting in front of the Meridian Gate!"

Can we not fight?

The two groups of people carried their people to the Meridian Gate one after another. After meeting, they started cursing without ordering. At first, everyone was restrained, but a smelly shoe flew out from nowhere and hit on the ground. On the face of the person headed by the Guozijian party.

This trick of flying shoes outside the sky can be said to be less harmful and extremely insulting, so the man exploded in an instant, and immediately took off his shoes and smashed towards the headless and shameless opposite.
