Chapter 52 Course(2/2)
Compared with Shujishi who intern in the cabinet, Yanwutangtang pays attention to study.
All subjects must be passed online in Arts 6, Martial Arts 2, and 8 to be approved for graduation allocation.
Otherwise, it will be difficult for you to get the first prize in martial arts and fail the exam.
In addition, except for the number one, number two, and top three candidates who are clearly admitted to the Guards Division, the remaining forty-seven places will be ranked lower according to their ranking.
Whether you are assigned to the Beijing camp or the frontier army also depends on your graduation score.
It can be said that these eight subjects are related to graduation and distribution, and no one dares to be careless.
Who doesn’t want to stay in the capital and sit next to the emperor to hone his qualifications?
Keeping simplicity in the emperor's heart is the best way to get promoted.
Just like this, in the warm sunshine of April, the martial arts scholars who have been practicing martial arts for 18 years welcomed their graduation day.
In that session, there were more than 600 people.
The first fifty people join the Guards Department and become new sword-wielding guards with a bright future.
The remaining people were assigned to the Beijing camp and the border army according to their performance.
As for the border troops, they were divided into three, six or nine levels. Chahar, which is close to the capital, was naturally the first choice, while those in Anxi and Jilin were strongly resisted.
Since the ranking was based on performance, an interesting phenomenon occurred. Those with low education but strong military skills all went to the frontier army, while those who were good at reading went to the Beijing camp.
So much so that many people joked that the Beijing camp would become a group of scholar soldiers in the future.
But Gao He had a good father, and of course he understood that Beijing Camp had always wanted talented soldiers.
Because generals who are influenced by Confucianism are more likely to be trusted and less likely to rebel.
To put it bluntly, reading makes sense, your mind becomes brighter, and you can think about military orders, instead of just following what the superior officer says and executing it to the letter.
When encountering rebellion, one will not immediately follow the rebellion.
The cost of officers' interests colluding will be greater.
Looking at these seniors, Gao He was not envious.
Because his future has been arranged.
Even if he doesn't get into the top 40, he will still be admitted to the Guards Department due to his family status.
After staying for another year or two, he will be assigned to serve as the camp commander in the Beijing camp, and then he will naturally transfer to the border army, where he will kill some thieves and gain promotion and meritorious service.
It takes three to five years to reach the regiment level.
Even if you have gained seniority by then, it is common for a province to have a total number of soldiers in your forties or fifties.
After the holiday, Gao He returned home.
My mother, Gao Guiying, greeted me warmly, but my father in name, but actually my uncle, asked me a few gentle words and then mentioned the marriage.
"The little daughter of the Zeng family is already sixteen, it's time for you to get engaged."
Gao Yigong had lived in exile for many years, and before he reached fifty, he already had frost on his temples, sore waist and backache, and was extremely old.
"Chan Guo Duke's Mansion?" Gao He frowned: "Dad, now Chang Guo Duke is in great momentum, I'm afraid others won't be able to do it!"
"How dare the Zeng family respond?" Gao Yigong chuckled and said, "This has been agreed a long time ago and cannot be denied. Besides, the Gao family is not bad at all and they are well matched."
Gao He naturally had no freedom in marriage, but the Zeng family exceeded his expectations.
After thinking for a while, he said: "I'm afraid it's inappropriate to have two Duke's offices!"
"If it is a marriage with the Duke of Jin, it is naturally not possible, but the Zeng family is different."
Gao He showed a trace of complacency: "His daughter is the crown prince. If you marry his younger daughter, you will become brother-in-law with the prince. Why not help the prince?"
Besides, I have no control over this marriage. It was arranged by the emperor himself.
Let a pair of brothers be brothers-in-law, it's hard for him to think of it.
"Let's decide on the marriage first and choose a good day at the end of the year to get married."
Since there is nothing wrong, Gao He can only accept his fate.
Not long after, several young men came to see him.
They are Chang Youdao, the Marquis of Huaiyuan, and Deng Ziqiu, the Marquis of Dingyuan.
The Chang family of Huaiyuan Hou was born after Chang Yuchun. His position as Duke was lost when he became the ancestor. During the Jiajing period, he was granted the title of Huaiyuan Hou. During the Hongguang period, Huaiyuan Hou Chang Yanling lived in seclusion and refused to surrender, so he stood firm in the Shaowu Dynasty.
Dingyuan Hou Deng Wenming was the successor of Deng Yu. After his army invaded Beijing, his family burned themselves on fire.
The Shaowu Dynasty praised loyal ministers and made his younger brother Deng Wenjing the Marquis of Dingyuan.
The two of them are several years older than him and have been married for a long time. However, although they have titles, it is conceivable that they are old titles from the previous dynasty.
You know, even in the early Ming Dynasty, the heroes of Jingnan were much better than the heroes of the founding of the country.
Not to mention anything else, the amount of land that Shaowu's heroes were rewarded was enough to make them drool with envy.
These marquises are not even comparable to ordinary earls.
Naturally, it is natural to gather around the princes.
"Brother Gao, hurry up, we've been waiting for you for a long time."
There is always a saying hurriedly waving.
Deng Ziqiu was even more impatient, grabbing his arm and taking him away: "He gave a good show today! You are the only one missing."
Gao He's heart felt hot, and he was taken away as the tide went.
As a result, it turned out to be a game of mahjong.
Eight people formed two groups, and the fight was fierce.
"Brother Gao, this thing is very popular in the palace. Sit down quickly and spend one dollar each."
After a few confused rounds, the group of people appeared at Zuichun Tower after it got dark.
Only then did Gao He feel normal.
I ordered a banquet and looked upstairs.
Soon, a group of women appeared on the high platform, wearing thin clothes and beautiful faces.
That's all. It's just that the looks of those women are so strange.
Green eyes, yellow hair, red hair.
"Hahaha, Brother Gao, this is from Xiyi."
The prince of Changguo proudly introduced his future brother-in-law:
“I’ve eaten too much delicacies from the mountains and the sea, and adding a few plates of different dim sum will give me a unique taste.”
Gao He raised his eyebrows: "Brother Zeng, do you like this?"
"Have a taste." Zeng Yucheng whispered: "There are even two Xiyi people in the palace, what are we afraid of?"
After saying that, he loudly said: "In addition to the Western Barbarians, there are also Mongolians and Li Manchus. If you have a more unique taste, I can also find some black people for you."
"As long as you have money, what woman doesn't?"
Gao He was surprised and said: "You guys are tired of playing with me!"
After saying that, he just watched her dance. He didn't choose Western and other tastes, but followed the rules and chose a Han girl.
