Accident

The students calmed down and followed the instructions of the instructor on the side to clean their hands in the copper basin. Then they sprinkled some water on their shoes and hats to complete the "guàn" ritual of entering the school.

Then they entered the Panchi in an orderly manner, crossed the wall bridge, and arrived at the Confucius Hall, the main hall of the academy. Under the guidance of the preceptor, the new students entered the hall.

In the main hall, both sides of the statue of the Holy Master are already filled with past students. In the front row are Lin students, with only about fifty people in total. Behind them are Zeng Zheng, about fifty, slightly less than Lin students, and behind them are attached students.

There were about five hundred students, all the way along, and they had already queued up behind the side hall.

For Lingzhou Fuxue, there is no limit on the number of students who can be admitted. As long as they are students, they can come in after paying enough money and food.

The additional students are usually supplemented by those who have excelled in the examinations in the prefectural schools. They are additional supplementary places for junior students, and the number of students is naturally smaller than that of junior students.

Lingzhou Prefectural School has a number of successful candidates in every provincial examination, ranging from three to five to seventy, eighty or ninety. This shows that the teaching level is high, so it is extremely attractive to students from other places.

The new students came to the middle of the hall and stood facing the statue of the Holy Master. Qin Chuan naturally stood at the front, with the second to fifth placers in the college examination on the left and right respectively.

Then they waited for the arrival of the new magistrate of Lingzhou, when everyone would pay homage to the statue of the Holy Master.

When he was chatting with Wang Fu just now, Qin Chuan learned that the new prefect's surname was Zhou. He was originally the prefect of Huaning Prefecture and was also a close friend of Xiaoqian's father in the same year.

Originally, Magistrate Nie was expected to be promoted to magistrate of Lingzhou, but Xiaoqian fell ill recently. Magistrate Nie only had such a beloved daughter and was not interested in political affairs, so he took Xiaoqian to visit a famous doctor.

Under the leadership of Magistrate Zhou, everyone respectfully saluted the statue of the Holy Master.

During this process, Qin Chuan naturally followed everyone in saluting.

Therefore, whenever the imperial court offered donations for prisons, those businessmen and landowners who had no reputation were the most active in responding, just to get the status of a prison student and enjoy the privilege of not having to kneel when meeting officials. Among them, prison students are also qualified to participate in the provincial examination, which is secondary.

.

Paying homage to the statue of the most holy master of the Fu School, there is actually a shadow of a pen in his Niwan Palace, with the awe-inspiring righteousness of Confucianism on it.

"Only with sincerity and sincerity can the article be full of flesh and blood and give birth to the awe-inspiring righteousness of our Confucian school. If you only write articles for the imperial examination, you don't know what awe-inspiring righteousness is, and your achievements will be limited throughout your life." He said here,

After a slight pause, he said, "Of course, people in the world have different pursuits. There is nothing wrong with bothering with the imperial examinations and pursuing fame. But there are far more things that can be pursued in this world than just fame. I hope you can understand it one day."

But there were ups and downs in his heart.

Qin Chuan was very unfamiliar with the shadow of the pen in his body and the awe-inspiring righteousness.

What does the shadow of this pen need to break away from silence? Is it the aura of righteousness?

Qin Chuan's heart was slightly ups and downs, and he followed the crowd without changing his expression to complete the entrance ceremony for the Fu Xue.

The prefect of Zhou came from Huaning Prefecture to serve. This kind of situation is really rare in the officialdom. Generally speaking, it is mostly because the superiors have offended someone.

When everyone in the hall heard the shouting, they all bowed in the direction where the prefect came from and saluted. Everyone present was a student at last. Even though the students in the hall were inconspicuous, in the lower states and counties, they still have some dignity.

.

Among the people he knew, perhaps Tixue was the only one who could answer his questions.

There is a high probability that there will be no accidents. After all, the Holy Master is a medieval saint. In Tixue terms, he is the same existence as the Taoist Heavenly Lord and the Shimen Buddha.

After a cup of tea, someone shouted loudly: "The prefect is here!"

What's more, the provincial government has a lot to do with it. If something is done well, the credit goes to those above. If something is done badly, the blame falls on the bottom.

But it was surprising that Prefect Zhou was transferred to be the prefect of Lingzhou. Although Lingzhou Prefecture was the provincial capital, many magistrates from other places were not willing to come here to be the prefect.

Qin Chuan was like a distracted student. He couldn't see anything on his face, but in his heart he kept thinking about the pen in Niwan Palace.

Compared with this, the Earth God of Zheng Village is nothing more than a firefly.

Then the Master of Ceremony said loudly: "Worship the Holy Master."

Under normal circumstances, the prefect, as the person with the highest status in the government, often arrives late and makes people wait for a long time. It is time for a cup of tea. This shows that the prefect Zhou is quite neat and tidy, unlike ordinary officials who value authority.

different.

The great righteousness of Confucianism!

He understood almost instantly that it was the awe-inspiring righteousness of Confucianism.

The other students all felt that Magistrate Zhou was speaking the truth.

There is a saying: "Three lives of misfortune, the county magistrate is attached to Guo; three lives of evil deeds, attached to the provincial capital of Guo; full of evil, attached to the capital of Guo."

I saw Magistrate Zhou wearing a crimson official robe and walking in accompanied by a professor of government studies. Qin Chuan took a glance and saw that this man had a majestic face and his steps were as precise as a ruler as he walked to the statue of the Holy Master.

, and then stood still.

This sudden change caught Qin Chuan off guard.

In addition, the admission process is coming to an end, and now comes the lecture from Prefect Zhou. There was a lot of verbosity in the front, and Qin Chuan didn't listen. However, the last paragraph attracted Qin Chuan's attention.

Qin Chuan is not particularly keen on things like officialdom, and he is a little confused now. If he wants to worship the statue of the Holy Master later, there should be no problems like when he worshiped the Earth Temple.

As for Magistrate Nie coming over to be promoted to magistrate, it was a promotion after all. Even though he was not as happy as being the magistrate of the next county, maybe a promotion was always a good thing.

Immediately, the shadow of a pen actually appeared in his Niwan Palace, emitting a weak white light that seemed to last forever.

Just now when he was worshiping the statue of the Holy Master, a white light suddenly flashed in front of his eyes. It emitted from the statue of the Holy Master. The light was so bright that it was as dazzling as the sun and shot into his body.

He instinctively sensed that the pen seemed to have reached the end of its rope, and it shot into his body, as if grasping a life-saving straw, to find a safe place for himself.

After the phantom entered Qinchuan Niwan Palace, it emitted a faint white light and fell into silence. Qin Chuan was not unfamiliar with this situation, and the situation of the Immortal Taoist Seed was better than this phantom.

Although the magistrates are much better than the magistrates who are attached to the provincial capital of Guo, they still have to face many constraints. They are not like those who dominate the government in other places, and are no different from the local emperors.

It's just that the Tao of Immortality needs to absorb spiritual energy before it can be revived.

Moreover, students have the privilege of not kneeling before officials. This fact alone has made many businessmen with some wealth envious.

But Qin Chuan, who had just encountered an unexpected incident, felt something vaguely in his heart after listening to Magistrate Zhou's words, especially Haoran's righteousness, which caught his curiosity.

It's a pity that he is not familiar with Prefect Zhou.

Qin Chuan did not make any extraordinary moves, and the Zhou Prefecture did not give special treatment in front of everyone because of Qin Chuan's status as Xiao Sanyuan. In his view, entering the government school was a new starting point. As a scholar, it is better not to dwell on past achievements.

.

The ceremony finally ended and everyone walked out of the hall.
Chapter completed!
