At Sun Lianlian's house, Lin Daguan took a bath and exercised for half an hour. After an hour, he entered a brief sage state.
Lazy Sun Lianlian chatted and said, "Professor Cui from the Fu School came to visit yesterday and left a message for you."
Lin Daguan was surprised and said: "He actually came to visit you?"
Sun Lianlian continued: "He said, senior official, do you still want to make progress? At the beginning of the new school season, the students of the government will be divided into grades!"
According to the Ming Dynasty's school system, not every student and scholar is qualified to participate in the provincial examination. Among the six grades, only the first and second grades are qualified for the provincial examination, and they are promoted or demoted every year based on the assessment results.
Lin Daguan was still surprised, "I wonder why Professor Cui didn't go to Suzhou Health Branch, Xinxin Academy, Hengtang Town Courtyard, Mudu Town Villa and other more formal places to leave a message, but he chose to leave a message here with you?
"
Sun Lianlian complained: "Probably because when high-ranking officials come to Nu's house, they have the most leisure time, and then they can go to the mansion to have a look.
So Professor Cui's message through the Nu family is equivalent to a secret complaint that you, a high official, don't pay enough attention to the work of the government!"
Lin Tailai: "."
He is worthy of being a literati, and he is very reserved.
As there was nothing to do tomorrow, Mr. Lin decided to go to the mansion to take a look.
After all, I haven’t been there for several months, which makes no sense, so it’s time to show my face.
Next to the Mansion School is the future Lin Mansion, which is still under construction at this time.
However, Mr. Lin passed by the Lin Mansion construction site today and did not enter. He selflessly went directly to the Mansion School first.
After entering the government school, Lin Daguan saw that there were already one hundred and eighty people standing in the courtyard in front of Minglun Hall, all of them students wearing robes and uniforms.
Because he has been working as an imperial guard for the past few days, Lin Daguan is the only one wearing leather armor.
This scene made Lin Daguan a little surprised. Could it be that there happened to be an event today?
When it comes to situations like this, most people's instinct is to find people they know to get together to make themselves feel less lonely. Even if they are not familiar with each other, as long as they are acquaintances, that's fine.
Lin Daguanren was no exception, so he stood next to Xiao Feng Menglong and Wang Yusheng who were at the same time.
"What's going on today?" Lin Daguan asked.
Xiao Feng Menglong replied excitedly: "Today is the entrance ceremony for freshmen! We also have juniors!"
It turned out that during Lin Daguan's expedition to Yangzhou, the new Tixueguan Grand Master quickly arrived in Suzhou City.
A college examination was held to recruit this year's talented students, and at the same time, an inspection was conducted to determine the grade of current students.
After hearing about the new students' enrollment, Lin Daguan said in a serious tone: "No wonder I saw a few new faces. They turned out to be the new juniors."
Xiao Feng Menglong: "."
I have to tell my conscience, you, Lin Tailai, are the new student in Fu Xue, right? In the past year since you entered school, have you appeared in Fu Xue three times?
At this time, Professor Cui of the Fu School stood on the platform and announced today's program.
The first item is the admission of new students; the second item is the announcement of the rankings for the new semester; the third item is the speech by the prefect.
Lin Daguan suddenly realized that no wonder Professor Cui specially sent a message that today's event is indeed more important.
The entrance ceremony for new students was mainly held at the nearby Confucius Temple. Old students participated as an atmosphere group. After the ceremony, they returned to Minglun Hall.
Moving on to the second item, Professor Cui took the list and began to announce the order of the students.
There are six grades in total. If a student ranks sixth for two consecutive years, he will be stripped of his clothes and will be sent to a social school to study.
Of course, for those who want to make progress, it is worthwhile only if they can take the first and second class in the provincial examination.
"Wang Yusheng was promoted from third grade to second grade." Professor Cui read.
Wang Yusheng breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but be excited. As long as he could maintain the second class, he would be able to take part in the provincial examination next year!
I couldn't help but give Lin Tailai, who didn't study hard, a provocative look. If you, Lin Tailai, can't get promoted this year, it will be even harder next year!
When Wang Yusheng takes the provincial examination, you, Lin Tailai, can only watch at home!
Then I heard Professor Cui read again: "Lin Tailai, promoted from third class to first class!"
Wang Yu said: "."
His smile gradually solidified, and his provocative eyes towards Lin Tailai froze before he could retract them.
When the students heard this, they couldn't help but started talking about it.
"I don't accept it!" Wang Yu said loudly.
The scene was a bit out of control. Even if Professor Cui shouted to stop, it would not have much effect. After all, the prestige of instructors these days is just that.
"The prefect is coming to lecture! Everyone, please be silent!" Professor Cui was so anxious that he used the name of the prefect.
At this moment, a servant suddenly rushed over and shouted: "The master can't come! It was just discovered that the master hanged himself from a beam in the back hall of the government office!"
As a result, the courtyard in front of Fuxue Minglun Hall became truly silent.
Only one person muttered loudly: "Why isn't he an imperial envoy?"
Professor Cui coughed and then said, "I think Lin Tailai can still be a senior student of the Fu School. Are there anyone who is not convinced?"
Lin Daguan, who was wearing leather armor and a leather helmet, waved his hand quickly, "Forget it, don't let others ridicule me for being a top student. It won't sound good if it gets spread."
