Marriage is not uncommon. You can enter Taixue at the age of fifteen, and you don't reach the top until you are twenty-eight. Many students have families.
But if you go to Shangsha District, you have to attract attention.
Although Taixue claims that students who are exempted from the exam can pass the exam, in fact, students who are outsiders are equivalent to young students, students who are inside students are equal to scholars, and students who are high-level students are equivalent to high-level students.
Even if they can enter Taixue, they are generally those who are ranked as fifth-rank officials or above, but they must first study in the outer house, pass the public examination, the private examination, and practice their daily skills before they can be promoted to the inner house.
In other words, family background is a qualification, and promotion depends on talent and learning.
The general examination is a competition with the best people in the world. Even if you get preferential treatment, if your results are too poor, it will ruin the reputation of Taixue.
The students of Taipei University are all fighting hard for the limited quota. Now suddenly, an outsider has passed through the outer dormitory, the inner dormitory, and directly entered the upper dormitory. This is like a spoonful of water poured into the boiling oil pan. Anyone who knows this is almost
Exploded at the same time!
"Isn't there something fishy about an outsider entering the upper house without any examination? Is he some noble person who came in through the back door?" A student in the inner house had red eyes and gnashed his teeth in hatred, and stopped eating.
He directly smashed the bowls and chopsticks he was preparing to use and smashed them into pieces on the stone pier.
This man is Zhou Shiyi, who is twenty-five years old this year. Because he is the eldest son of a concubine, although his father Zhou Yu is the Shaoqing of the Taifu, he is not valued by anyone whether at home or outside, or even in the Taixue.
Marrying a wife who is the so-called "right match" does not help him at all. In order to win the resources and support of his family and father, he must be admitted to the upper house.
But the talent is mediocre, and it all depends on hard work. Even if he studies hard, he can only occupy the forefront among the students in the inner house. There are still a few strong players in front of him. Now an outsider has appeared and easily entered the upper house, let alone occupying the upper house.
If he gets a quota, will he be squeezed out? Just saying that this is unfair is enough to make his mentality collapse.
Everyone has their own difficulties in trying desperately to get a place in the school. If someone squeezes out a place for no reason, how can they be willing to do it?
"Su Zi's family has no nobles named Su and no important ministers named Su."
"There is a Councilor Su, but it has nothing to do with Su Zi's birthplace. His place of birth is different. Even if there is a relationship, so what, he is just a fourth-rank person."
"If you are really talented, you have to test it step by step. Why should you be parachuted to Shangshe?"
The most important thing in Taixue is relationships. You may not be able to do much at ordinary times, but the investigation is very powerful. If they really can't find out, it will definitely not be important.
After only half an hour, the student who had touched the bottom exploded.
"We can't just let this matter go. There's only one person coming in now, but regardless of breaking the rules, a few more will come later. We students in the inner house, even if we have a cantilevered head and a spike in the buttocks, we may not be able to pass the entrance examination!" p>
The person who said this was Xiang Xiuping, who usually seemed to have a gentle personality, but his eyes were red at this moment. His father was from the third rank, but he was punished and was idle at home. He came in through his uncle's path. I don't know how much thought he put into it, let alone
He said he learned.
Tai students study in separate fasts. There are thirty people in each fast. Some of them take the lead and want to make trouble. The remaining twenty or so inner students all start to waver.
Yes, if you ignore it this time, if a few more come in the future, what hope do you have?
Those students who did not plan to pass the exam and only planned to study here, because everyone was in the same circle and hated the same enemy, they all gathered together and wanted to complain to the officials within the Imperial College.
When the students from Biezhai got the news, there were not a few who started making trouble.
There were about a thousand students in Zheng Chao Taixue. Except for some who did not like to cause trouble, the remaining several hundred people flocked to the academic officials.
"What? Someone in Taixue practiced favoritism and allowed outsiders to enter the upper room directly?" What shocked him was Zhou Mingda, the academic prime minister who was on duty today. Hearing this, he was stunned.
This fact was unbelievable. It was the first time I heard about it. I immediately ordered with an unhappy look on my face: "Go and get this person's file."
Not long after the order was issued, Shao Sisen came over with sweat on his face and announced at the door: "Student Shao Sisen has met the teacher!"
Zhou Mingda calmed down at this time, sipped tea and said: "Are you on duty today? Come in, why did this mistake happen?"
If you can pass the exam, you must be very good. He still values this student very much.
Shao Sisen came in, bowed deeply again, and then said cautiously: "I only registered the information file at nearly noon. According to the rules of the Imperial Academy, it has to be checked before being sent for review."
"Sit down." Zhou Mingda remembered that there was indeed such a rule, and waved his hand: "Hand over the file!"
Just waiting for the file of Su Ziji, a newly admitted student from Shangshe, to be sent, Zhou Mingda checked it and immediately darkened his face.
"It's nonsense. You obviously used the recommendation order and entered the upper house according to the rules. How can there be any malpractice for personal gain? These students are following everyone else's words, and they follow the wind and do it like rain!"
After saying that, he walked out and went straight to the place where students gathered.
"Master Xuecheng is here!" Zhou Shiyi, with sharp eyes, saw it first and shouted, and the originally noisy scene immediately became quiet.
Then Xiang Xiuping said loudly: "Master Zhou, you must uphold justice for us students. According to the rules of Taixue, new students who enroll must first go to the outer dormitory to study, pass the exam, and meet the conditions in all aspects before they can enter the inner dormitory.
, and after entering the inner house, you have to study for two years before you have the opportunity to be promoted to the upper house. Now when new students enter the school, they can go directly to the upper house. I am not convinced!"
"Yes, I won't accept it!"
"Nonsense!" Seeing these people shouting in unison, with red eyes, and simply being polite, Zhou Mingda frowned and scolded: "How do I usually teach you to wait? You are all future talents, but you don't care about the ins and outs, you only listen to some rumors.
Just fooling around like this, do you know that this newcomer is entering the school with a recommendation order?"
Most students were still confused by what Zhou Mingda said, and a few couldn't help but gasp.
Zhou Mingda glanced at it and said coldly: "You may not know what the recommendation order is. It is given by the Holy Spirit to meritorious ministers."
"According to the regulations of Taixue, those who enter with a recommendation order can directly enter the upper house!"
"Are you making such a noise to defy the law? If I hadn't known that you didn't, I would have punished you today - why don't you leave?"
"If there is any more noise, it will be recorded and dealt with."
When they heard that they were about to record the files, these imperial students immediately fled like birds and beasts, and the whole place was immediately cleared.
Although the Tai students were dismissed, Zhou Mingda frowned. Although he could directly enter the Shangshe with the recommendation order, the main purpose of the Shangshe was to participate in the examination without taking the exam. Su Zi was from Jieyuan, a province, and he was already eligible to participate in the examination.
Why bother to squeeze out a student quota?
Even for the children of officials, the court does not provide much protection. How difficult it is to fight for a place. Zhou Mingda is a scholar, so he knows very well.
Being a teacher also has the obligation to be a teacher. He sighed and ordered: "Go and invite people from Su Ju to come to my place and say that I have something to discuss."
