He glanced down at the student's name. At first glance, he felt it looked familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.
"Eh? It's him? No wonder!" Mr. Fang finally remembered it. No wonder the name looked familiar.
"Oh? Do you still know him? I think he is not very old. Could it be that he is a disciple of some great Confucian?" Fu Ming saw that Lord Fang knew this student, and felt that Gu Chengyu might be a disciple of some great Confucian. But in the past few years,
He has never heard of any great scholar accepting disciples!
"More than that! This guy has quite a reputation! Maybe the Holy One still remembers him!"
Fang Huai and Yin Kun, the eldest disciple of former Prime Minister Liang Zhirui, have known each other for many years. More than two years ago, Yin Kun sent someone to his teacher in Jingyuan Prefecture, saying that the teacher wanted to accept a closed disciple. Yin Kun said to him one after another
He had mentioned the younger junior brother's name and age, but he still had some impression of it.
The reason why I have this impression is that Gu Chengyu was the student who wrote the policy papers three years ago. Those two policy papers also attracted the attention of His Majesty. Although the prevention and control of floods has not been implemented, the increase in agricultural taxes has been announced. In the past two years, His Majesty
I also asked twice personally.
I heard from Yin Kun that his teacher was very concerned about this junior disciple, and repeatedly asked the three brothers in his letters to take good care of the junior disciple. However, no one was invited to the apprenticeship ceremony, probably because of the junior disciple.
Disciple Tai, this can be regarded as a kind of protection for him, right?
"Oh? Are you serious?" Fu Ming felt a little unbelievable. Could it be that this boy is from the capital? Then why haven't he seen it before? If he is a child of any aristocratic family, he should have an impression. Besides, the children of the aristocratic family in the capital are not
Will come and stay at the inn.
He was a little curious about Gu Chengyu. According to the previous students, Gu Chengyu could not be from Jiangnan.
"Do you still remember those two policy papers from three years ago? They were written by this kid." Fang Huai knew that Fu Ming only focused on teaching at Boshan Academy. Although he had some understanding of current affairs in the capital, he was not in the officialdom, so he was still inferior after all.
some.
"Could it be this kid?" Fu Ming only knew that he was a candidate who did well in the county examination, but he had never heard of his name.
Fang Huai smiled. Who didn't envy Jiang Mingyuan's luck back then? Although Jiang Mingyuan is still the prefect now, everyone knows that it is because of the experimental field. Maybe he can be promoted to two levels in the next assessment. After all, the experimental field is implemented
The land is good. These methods have been popularized, and even Jiangnan has begun to practice them.
He looked deeply at Gu Chengyu. He was a talented person, but it was not certain whether he was suitable for officialdom, so he had to wait and see.
The conversation between the two did not affect the competition over there. Yes, it was a competition.
If three talented people compete for the first place, what is it but a competition? But Gu Chengyu seems to have been forgotten a long time ago.
"Chengyu! Since you have written a poem, let's wait a little longer. Maybe you win first place and can live in a house!" Sun Xian was also infected by this atmosphere and wanted to see Gu Chengyu and these so-called
Who among the talented people from the south of the Yangtze River is better? He doesn't know those talented people from the south of the Yangtze River, and besides, he has great confidence in Gu Chengyu.
"How do these Jiangnan talented people compare to Gu Chengyu?" Fu Ming looked at the three talented people surrounding him and asked Master Fang.
Hearing this, Fang Huai raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you just trying to gain fame or reputation, or do you think you can test out your true talents here? The provincial examination is the touchstone!"
"Hmph! You guys keep talking about the imperial examination. Those who are rejected by the imperial examination may have real talents among them. The imperial examination is not a measure of whether a person is a real person!"
Fu Ming was a little disgusted with this. He was forced by his family to become a Jinshi, but he was not interested in being an official and only liked learning. So he decided to teach at Boshan Academy, and finally became a great Confucian and was successfully promoted to
The mountain is long.
Fang Huai shook his head and laughed. This old guy is really weird. Does he think there are people in this world who are as indifferent to fame and wealth as him? Take that kid! He is an ambitious person!
"Actually, haven't you thought about it? If you didn't pass the Jinshi exam, then Boshan Academy would ask you to teach yoga? Can you be promoted to mountain chief? What if you were just an ordinary scholar?" What if Fu Ming didn't pass the exam?
Jinshi, then he is nothing now.
Fu Ming asked Fang Huai and was stunned for a moment. Hasn't he thought about it? Of course it's impossible. Rather than being forced by his parents, it's better to say that he also wanted to prove himself through the imperial examination, but he didn't like officialdom!
In just a short time, more and more people were in front of the inn. Gu Chengyu looked at the movements of the three people over there, and Min Feng was the first to stop writing.
Shopkeeper Wan of the inn immediately came forward with his waiters to get the poems. During this period, Liu Haonan and Huang Junheng also finished their poems.
"Chengyu! They are much slower than you!" Ye Zhiqiu whispered beside Gu Chengyu.
I just didn't expect that such a sentence would stoke a hornet's nest. It happened that the student standing in front of them was from Jiangnan. Is it okay to hear this?
"Hey! I said, why did I forget you just now? What? You think that if you write fast, you can write better than the talented people? What a nonsense!"
"I said, didn't they just say that they knew the answers to these questions? Then they must have not answered them correctly, otherwise why didn't the two great scholars tell them?" Ye Zhiqiu successfully attracted their attention.
As soon as he said this, the three talented men looked at Gu Chengyu at the same time. Liu Haonan hadn't paid attention to Gu Chengyu just now, but now he rolled his eyes and had an idea.
The three of them competed, and whoever lost would lose face. The most important thing was that he was not sure he could beat the two of them. Then he would bring this candidate in. Multiple stepping stones would be good!
Gu Chengyu was pushed to the front by the group of people, and he could only salute helplessly. In fact, he didn't want to be too high-profile, but it always backfired.
"Junior brother, I see that you are already a scholar at a young age. I wonder where you are from?" Huang Junheng, one of them, felt that it was still necessary to ask clearly, but not from which aristocratic family you are from. It would be bad if you offended the nobles.
Those local snakes who are entrenched in the local area, even the fourth-rank officials in the capital, have to give them some face.
"My surname is Gu, from Jingyuan Prefecture."
As soon as Gu Chengyu finished speaking, Liu Haonan took over, "Junior brother Gu, didn't you just compose a poem? Today we must choose the first place, why not take it out and let everyone comment!"
Just now, Liu Haonan and the others were surrounded by students, but they didn't see Gu Chengyu's poems being taken away by Fu Ming. He thought that Gu Chengyu didn't dare to do anything, so he had already lost the poems!
"What kind of virtue is he? His poems dare to be put together with those of the three great talents?" A student rolled his eyes. He had seen the three great talents at the poetry meeting, and their poems were indeed excellent.
