The next day, "Nanping Wenbao" published what happened in the Academy of Literature.
Not to mention Nanping Prefecture, even the Chinese Academy of Sciences Palace in the capital of Yun State attaches great importance to this.
You must know that for scholars, having an imperial examination certificate will be a passport to an official career.
Once lost, you can only shine in the literary world, but cannot enter the court to display your ambitions.
However, at the Nanping Prefecture Liberal Arts College, hundreds of students voluntarily gave up on the academic status test, which was unprecedented in thousands of years and had a huge impact.
Since Du Ning wrote "Horse Theory" to suppress the country, this article was also published in newspapers and magazines of liberal arts academies across the country.
Coupled with what happened at the Nanping Academy of Literature, scholars from all over the country were using newspapers and newspapers to express their opinions and criticize Yan Song's behavior.
After discussions among many academics, Nanping Academy of Arts published an article in Suzhou Wenbao, apologizing to Du Ning for Yan Song's stupid behavior.
Even so, scholars everywhere are still very angry.
In the past two days, Nanping Academy of Arts sent academicians and Hanlin scholars to Du Ning's home one after another to discuss, hoping that Du Ning could forgive Yan Song.
Although Du Ning treated the visiting bachelor with courtesy, he still insisted on his decision.
Those academicians tried their best, but they still couldn't defeat Du Ning, so they all had to return without success.
Within the Nanping Academy of Arts, some academics approached Dongfang Xiong.
"Mr. Dongfang, I heard that you and Du Ning know each other. Can you come forward to help us coordinate? This is related to the reputation of our Nanping Liberal Arts Academy. If Du Ning does not join the Imperial Academy, it will be a shame for all of us." "Yes! Didn't you help Du Ning last time? As long as you come forward, he will definitely give you this face."
"Mr. Dongfang, please say something!"
Everyone looked at Dongfang Xiong and looked very anxious.
"Haha, Yan Song caused the trouble himself, why should I step in to settle it for him?"
Dongfang Xiong showed contempt and said slowly: "I am just an editor of the Academy of Arts. I have no control over matters related to education, and I don't have that power."
"Besides, Du Ning comes from a poor family and is proud and proud. How could he go back on his word and slap himself in the face?"
"You'd better not worry about it. Based on my understanding of Du Ning, even eight horses can't pull back what he decided."
Everyone was angry and anxious when they saw Dongfang Xiong acting like he was ignoring the matter.
But in the end, there was nothing we could do.
"Just wait patiently. If something like this happens, the Guoxue Palace will handle it," Dongfang Xiong said.
Everyone looked at each other in shock.
…………
A few days passed in the blink of an eye.
Li Changsheng and several Hanyi Club students came to see Du Ning.
Everyone sat in the courtyard, and Du Ning made tea for everyone.
"I heard from students in the liberal arts college that Yan Song was reviled by many scholars in Nanping Prefecture, so that his literary courage was completely shattered, and his Confucianism and Taoism in this life would stop at being a bachelor."
"Yan Song has done stupid things, and he must pay the due price for his stupid things. The king of the literary academy actually shuts out the scholars who wrote articles about subjugating the country. This is a loss for the human race." "Du Zhenguo really fights for our humble family. How much the powerful people despise us in normal times, now let them know that we, the children of the poor family, are not to be messed with!"
While everyone was communicating, a voice came from outside the door: "But Du Ning, Du Zhen Guofu?"
Everyone looked at the sound and stood up quickly.
The visitor was Dongfang Xiong, the editor of the Academy of Arts, followed by several officials from the Academy of Arts, all of whom had serious expressions.
"I've met Mr. Dongfang."
"I have met all of you, my lords."
Everyone salutes together.
Li Changsheng whispered to Du Ning: "Mr. Dongfang is not here to be a lobbyist, is he? Hey... I didn't expect that the Academy of Arts and Sciences would ask Mr. Dongfang to come forward..."
"Shhh, don't talk nonsense. The ears of a great scholar can hear you." Du Ning reminded.
Li Changsheng quickly shut his mouth.
Dongfang Xiong smiled and said: "Li Juren misunderstood. I came here specifically to congratulate Du Ning."
"Congratulations?"
The students of Hanyi Club looked at each other, wondering where this joy came from.
"Mr. Dongfang, please clarify." Du Ning said.
Dongfang Xiong took out a document, handed it to Du Ning and said: "Mr. Ye Jinghong, the monarch of Suzhou Academy of Literature, recommended to the Guoxue Palace to make an exception and accept you as a student of Suzhou Academy of Arts. From now on, your student status will be in Suzhou Academy of Literature."
If you keep it in the courtyard, you can participate in the imperial examinations in various places in Suzhou."
"What? Du Ning was admitted to the Prefectural Liberal Arts Academy as an exception?"
Li Changsheng and others looked at Du Ning with envy. Suzhou Literary Academy was a place of education second only to the Guoxue Palace. Many people dreamed of enrolling their students in Suzhou Literary Academy.
For scholars, this is simply a great honor.
Du Ning was surprised and said: "I am just a high-ranking student, and I don't have any fame. It doesn't seem to be in line with the rules of the liberal arts college to enter the state liberal arts college, right?"
"This is indeed against the rules, but your "Ma Shuo" article has won the country. If such a great talent cannot enter the Suzhou Academy of Literature, then won't our Yun Kingdom become the laughing stock of other countries?" Dongfang Xiong said with a smile. p>
Many people present nodded silently, thinking that Dongfang Xiong's words were reasonable.
In terms of status, Du Ning is a top-notch student and is indeed not qualified to register as a student at Suzhou Literary Academy.
But in terms of articles, Du Ning's "Horse Theory" can surpass the ordinary Hanlin Academy by more than ten blocks, and even the bachelor's degree can't compare with it.
Du Ning's potential was so great that Suzhou Academy of Literature made an exception and created a student status for Du Ning.
"Thanks to the care of the Guoxue Palace, students will study hard and live up to expectations." Du Ning said gratefully.
Dongfang Xiong said again: "If you want to have a better future, I suggest you go to Suzhou Literary Academy to study. Mr. Ye said that if you go to Suzhou Literary Academy, he will apply for a scholarship from the Guoxue Palace for you. Humble family
It’s rare to have a noble son, and he’s not like Yan Song who has the talent of ‘Bo Le knows horses’.”
Du Ning was immediately moved when he heard this. He felt a little proud to be so favored by a great scholar.
"Please Mr. Dongfang express my gratitude to Mr. Ye for me. If I have the conditions to go to Suzhou in the future, the student will definitely visit me."
"Okay, if you go to Suzhou to find Mr. Ye one day, I believe he will be very happy."
Dongfang Xiong nodded lightly, and then said: "There is another thing. Yesterday, a great scholar from the Guoxue Palace came to the Nanping Academy of Literature in person, investigated all the officials in the Academy, and announced in public that Yan Song would be dismissed forever.
Not accepted."
Du Ning, Li Changsheng and others were shocked. They did not expect that the Guoxue Palace would be so powerful and directly took off Yan Song's black gauze hat.
"Well done! That guy Yan Song is unfair and unjust. He is ignorant and unworthy of being the king of the same court."
"If I were a great scholar in the Chinese Academy of Sciences, I would not hesitate to investigate Yan Song."
"It's really ridiculous that a dignified bachelor and a highly respected academician would not do anything but do something that would harm the pillars of the human race. Therefore, his reputation is ruined."
All the students clapped their hands and applauded, thinking that the Guoxue Palace had done a fair thing.
"Yan Song has been dismissed, who will be the emperor?" Li Changsheng asked.
The officials of the Academy of Arts subconsciously looked at Dongfang Xiong, and everyone else followed their gazes.
Dongfang Xiong held his head high and said proudly: "Yes, after Yan Song was dismissed, the Guoxue Palace put this black gauze hat on my head."
"Congratulations to Mr. Dongfang on your promotion."
"Mr. Dongfang is an upright and upright man, and he has the demeanor of a court gentleman."
"Having Mr. Dongfang in charge of the local liberal arts academy is a blessing for us as scholars in Nanping Prefecture."
The students congratulated in unison.
"Hehe... This is all thanks to Mr. Du and all the students. If I hadn't made such a fuss in the liberal arts college, I would have been severely suppressed by Yan Song in the liberal arts college, and I might not have been able to get ahead." Dongfang Xiong said with a smile. p>
"No wonder Mr. Dongfang didn't stand up for the Academy. It turns out he had ulterior motives." Du Ning joked.
"If I plead for Yan Song's sake, I'm afraid my literary courage will be compromised." Dongfang Xiongyi said seriously.
Everyone laughed. Although Dongfang Xiong is a Confucian and Taoist scholar, his character is upright and worthy of close friendship.
"However, this matter is indeed a big deal. Hundreds of students have given up on the student status test, which is unprecedented."
Dongfang Xiong continued: "So in order to compensate the students, Nanping Liberal Arts College will conduct another student status test. I also hope that you will tell each other not to let this matter continue to make trouble. If we get an advantage, we have to behave well, otherwise the Chinese Academy of Sciences will be dismissed.
The only one I have to take off is my black gauze hat."
"Haha..."
Everyone laughed from ear to ear this time. Dongfang Xiong was really humorous. Nanping Academy of Arts conducted a new student status test. With Dongfang Xiong’s literary name in Nanping Mansion, the students would definitely give him enough face.
And it was also good for Du Ning to do so, because Du Ning wrote the article "Horse Theory" to subjugate the country and was admitted to Suzhou Academy of Literature as an exception. However, those students who spoke out for Du Ning did not get any benefit at all and suffered in vain.
to obtain his/her student status.
Nanping Liberal Arts College has reopened its exams so that students can re-apply for their student status.
The final result was roughly the same as the original expectation, but an unfair and unjust monarch was forced to step down and Dongfang Xiong was allowed to take charge of the liberal arts academy. Then this bad thing was cleverly transformed into a good thing.
Nanping Prefecture was under the rule of Suzhou, and Du Ning entered the Suzhou Academy of Literature as a child, which was a great honor for Nanping Prefecture.
As long as "Yunjing Wenbao" has a few words of praise for Dongfang Xiong, then given Dongfang Xiong's status in the literary world, the negative impact caused by Yan Song will soon be eliminated.
Dongfang Xiong said to Du Ning: "Now that you have such a good opportunity to study in the state liberal arts college, you must seize it. It doesn't matter if you owe others a favor. If you miss the opportunity, you will regret it."
"The student understands what Mr. Dongfang means."
Du Ning said: "Suzhou is a big city. At present, I am just a boy student without any fame. I am afraid that there will be a lot of trouble in the future. After I have achieved success in the imperial examination, it will not be too late to study in Suzhou Academy of Literature."<

Dongfang Xiong showed a look of satisfaction: "Don't aim too high and be self-aware. Not bad, not bad!"
