Chapter nine hundred and ninety-ninth the big commotion of the students who fell off the list
Since Zhao Zhen agreed to Ouyang Xiu's reform of the imperial examination system, the reform must continue. For Zhao Zhen, why not take the blame anybody?
In the imperial examination, the country was promoted to the government. In the short term, it gave the people of the Song Dynasty hope to cross the levels, and in the short term, it was related to the foundation of the country!
However, this year's imperial examination was the most unusual one. Without even saying others, the people in Beijing could feel it themselves. The candidates who failed the exam were resentful and all the "Taixue Style" were wiped out. This is the most surprising thing.
After the spring examination, someone heard the news: "The Imperial Academy will not be accepted this year." After the results were released, the news came true. Many people thought that this was the imperial court's punishment without teaching. Why didn't the Imperial Academy write early if it was not recorded?
I have to wait until I was about to say "The Taixue style is useless" before I was about to take the exam? Many people have been writing about the Taixue style for several years, or even for more than ten years. I was not sure if they changed to other types of writing, so I had to bite the bullet and write down some "four no-likes" that seem to be Taixue style but not like Taixue style.
Needless to say, all of them were crossed out with a big stroke of Ouyang Xiu, and he didn't even have the chance to be taken by the chief examiner. In other words, no matter how well written the article is, as long as it is in the Taixue style, it will not have the chance to pass the review and it will be directly turned into waste paper.
Now the spring examination in Beijing has ended, but the students in the city have not dispersed for a long time. The resentment in the hearts of those who failed the exam is naturally unrest. Many people ask people to find connections to ask the people in the court officials to speak up, either slander Ouyang Xiu or excuse the candidates of the Imperial Academy.
But it was obvious that Zhao Zhen just refused to let go of his words. All the officials were helpless. The imperial examination was always the only one who had the final say. Since the Zhenzong Dynasty, the imperial examinations had been firmly held in their own hands.
Zhao Zhen trusted Ouyang Xiu, trusted his character, and trusted his way of being an official. He also let all officials see that he was not doubting the use of people. He had already filled a basket of memorials from Ouyang Xiu, most of whom had juniors in the Imperial Academy or participated in this year's competition.
The Imperial Academy was the highest institution of learning in the Song Dynasty and was affiliated with the Imperial College. The students here were only children of officials and no one else, but it was awkward to say that there were not many Jinshis who came out of here, and most of them were eminent in the official career.
There is a Biyong in the Imperial Academy. This is a university established in the capital since the Zhou emperor. The Chinese civilization has continued to this day. This Biyong has also been passed down. It is round outside, surrounded by a pool, and there is a bridge outside the front door.
The Piyong inheritance has now been no longer the original place for teaching and educating people, but is used as a place for respecting Confucianism and ceremonies.
"Why did the emperor establish Pi Yong? Therefore, he practices rituals and music to promote virtue and transformation. Pi is a jade, which is like a jade, and is also used to judge the sky, and is on the side of Yongshui, which is like a teaching and transformation that is popular."
Not only is there Biyong in the Imperial College, but there is also a Biyong in the Taimiao. These two Biyongs are the central buildings of the Imperial College in the Taimiao and are the school of the emperor. After the emperor ascended the throne, he must give lectures here.
It can be seen that the importance and nobility of Piyong, but now, the Piyongzhong of the Imperial College of the Song Dynasty is full of people. A young man shouted loudly before the statue of Confucius: "Husband, a villain has won the will of a word and abandoned our ten-year hard window, blinded the emperor, and abandoned the Imperial Academy body without earlier descriptions, resulting in the destruction of our swords for ten years! Such a hateful person must face it and expose it quickly!"
"Liu Jizhai said it well!"
"We are just like this!"
"When you go find him, Ouyang Xiu said carefully!"
The students of the Imperial Academy at the steps agreed loudly, while the Imperial Academy's direct lectures, Xueyu, Xuelu and others smiled. In their opinion, these people were already blinded by the failure of the exam, so they should let them vent.
The students of the Imperial Academy did not come from the family of officials, so there was no need to offend these people. Even if they responded to Liu Ji's words, these students would not dare to act recklessly when they met the deputy minister of the dynasty. At most, they would just shout for justice!
As the Imperial Academy’s gentlemen, they also fulfilled their responsibilities and told them the news that the Imperial Academy was abandoned early. Unexpectedly, these newborn calf were not afraid of tigers, and they had to be beaten to death before they could stop.
These things are taken seriously by these straightforward words, learning instructions, and learning records. Naturally, they do not report to Xuezheng. The more no one stops them, the more difficult things will be to deal with. Liu Ji and hundreds of failed candidates bowed to Confucius' statue and began the journey of revenge...
This is really about to take revenge. It is not easy for the students who failed the exam after hundreds of people. Fortunately, the Song Dynasty was lenient to scholars, otherwise they would be taken down by the Yuhou of the City once they left the gate of the Imperial Academy.
Along the way, the team of students who failed the exam grew stronger and stronger. They were either watching the lively or being indignant and wanted to ask for an explanation. Liu Ji and other students refused to accept the visit. After a simple gift, they gathered these people into the team. Liu Ji and other "backbone" continued to hold their heads up and headed towards the Yujie Street.
After Ouyang Xiu arranged the matter between the palace examination and the Ministry of Rites, he left the imperial city and got on his own carriage outside Tiananmen Gate. However, he was stopped shortly after the carriage was left at the east gateway. The carriage was stopped urgently. The noise outside made Ouyang Xiu, who was thinking about trivial matters, frown slightly.
But he still maintained a gentlemanly demeanor. He was the chief examiner of the imperial examination this year, so he naturally represented the image of the court, so he lifted the curtain to get off the car.
But as soon as he got off the car, the housekeeper rushed over: "Master, the students who failed the exam were dissatisfied and came to stop the car and attack. Master should get in the car quickly. There are guards to stop him. Later, Yu Hou will come to the city patrol and he will not be able to leave!"
The butler's words surprised Ouyang Xiu, who was originally indifferent, and then stepped forward, but saw that the students had already pushed the guards. These guards were actually the imperial guards in the imperial city. When they had a deputy minister like Ouyang Xiu, there would be an imperial guard station squad. The number of people was not large. Although there were only about a dozen people talking about, it was the honor given by the Tian family.
These imperial guards are only responsible for the journey from Ouyang Xiu to his home from the palace. On the way, they were stopped by the students who failed the exam. If something happened, they would inevitably be punished. Ouyang Xiu knew the abilities of these imperial guards, so he stepped forward and shouted the imperial guards and said, "Don't do it, you can retreat!"
The Imperial Guard was slightly stunned. At this time, he asked himself to retreat. Could it be that Mr. Ouyang had practiced it?
But in this dazed moment, the crowd of students who failed the exam broke through the barrier and rushed towards Ouyang Xiu. At the beginning, Liu Ji was still full of excitement, but as the number of people hit him became more and more, the fallen imperial guards screamed repeatedly, and his heart became heavier and even more fearful...
At this moment, Ouyang Xiu shouted loudly: "Get back quickly, there is an imperial guard who has fallen down and wait! Get back quickly..."
But at this time, the East Gate had already changed. The students' sudden rushing in destroyed the original formation. The vendors on both sides were still watching the fun at first, but now they have been affected. The stalls where the things were placed had long been overthrown, and the goods on them were scattered all over the floor.
The people behind walked forward without knowing the truth, the people in front began to retreat, and the team in the middle expanded, and finally evolved into horror...
