The whole college was silent and could not hear any sound.
Yanfeng emperor obviously felt it and wanted to take this opportunity to frighten the ministers, but also to unite the hearts of the monarchs and ministers, so that the monarchs and ministers could be integrated.
After a while, Emperor Yanfeng smiled and sat down again: "I'm a little out of my temper. Guozijian, name it album."
Taoist Lingyun hurriedly came forward with the list in his hand. Emperor Yanfeng mentioned the Zhu pen and wrote a few words behind Qin Mu's name, saying, "from now on, he will be a disciple of the son of heaven." After that, close the register and return it to Taoist Lingyun.
Emperor Yanfeng looked at the young patriarch and said, "it's your duty to choose scholars for the grand sacrifice. I've taken over your place. What do you think?"
The young master laughed and said, "Your Majesty is holy and bright. It is a blessing for the ruins to have great talents and strategies."
Yanfeng emperor laughed and shook his head again and again: "flatter, flatter me again. Well, let the scholar continue to compete."
The Imperial College of Taiyuan University ordered many scholars to continue the competition. There are still a few students in primary school who haven't finished the exam. They also took the exam together in front of the Imperial College hall, and Taoist Lingyun still took the exam.
Taoist Lingyun was helpless even if he wanted to give water to the children of those dignitaries. After all, there are all strong men with bright eyes. If he breaks up, he will be seen through!
This big exam didn't end until the afternoon. Some people were happy and others were worried, especially the university scholars. The competition was even more cruel and rigorous. It was one in a hundred to enter Taiyuan University!
And there are only five places left in the primary school scholars. After all, those who came from famous families are still knowledgeable, better than poor disciples. Among the five scholars, only Si Ruxiang successfully passed the big examination and became a scholar of the Imperial College.
The other four are all from famous families.
It's not that poor scholars don't work hard, but that resources are limited.
Primary schools and universities teach the same martial arts, spells and swordsmanship. No matter how skillful you practice, you can't break through this barrier. In addition to practicing the unique skills passed down by primary schools and universities, famous families also have their own family, ancestral and sectarian traditions, and there are experts at home, so the proportion of poor scholars is not high.
Qin Mu looked at it and said, "in the long run, I'm afraid that the high-level of Yankang country will eventually be controlled by the forces of famous families and sects, and the disciples of poor families will never rise above the court. In this way, the country will not last long. Emperor Yanfeng has the heart of change, and I don't know whether this situation can be changed?"
In this case, the ruler will always be the ruler, and the solidification between classes, and some forces in the ruler will inevitably become bigger and bigger, have more and more resources, and eventually become the cancer of the Empire.
When the poor scholars revolted, the cancer took the opportunity to make waves, and the collapse of the Empire was only in the morning and night.
After the college entrance examination, the Imperial College arranged a residence. Anyone who became a Bachelor of science would have his own residence in the college. This is called scholar's residence, which is the place where scholars live. Each scholar has a yard with two in and two out. Scholars from the Imperial College usually live in their own residence, where everything is available. Servants help with housework, cooking and laundry, so that scholars don't have to worry about trivial things.
If it's a family with status, you can also bring your own servants or maids. Qin Mu has nothing, so naturally he doesn't have these trivia.
"I don't know if I can bring Hu linger here too? Wait until things are arranged here, and after meeting the patriarch, go and pick her up."
Qin Mu looked around. The jade peak where the Imperial College was located was much larger than what he saw. There were mountains in the mountains and holes in the caves. In addition to the Chunyang hall, Qingyang hall and Taixue hall, there were more than a dozen palaces and Tianlu building.
Tianlu building is the place where books are collected, and there is a Secretary Supervisor 1. The word secretary, as the name suggests, is to take care of secret books. The books in Tianlu building are the classics of all sects in the Empire. They are hidden in the building and supervised by the secretary.
Qin Mu stopped to watch, only to see people coming and going in Tianlu building, bustling, mostly scholars, but also royal children.
"How do you feel when you come here?"
An old voice came from behind him. Qin Mu turned around, bowed down and said, "ancestor."
It was the young patriarch who came. Although he looked like a young man, his voice was very old. He laughed and said, "don't be polite."
Qin Mu calmed down and said, "I saw the situation of Yankang country all the way, which gave me a great impact, and my heart was quite restless."
The young master was interested and walked forward: "Oh, tell me."
Qin Mu followed his footsteps, talking as he walked, and said, "I saw signs of great prosperity all the way up and down the country of Yankang. The magic power of Taoism, daily use of the people, is changing with each passing day. Drought, rainfall, floods and cloud removal are almost miracles. There are spacecraft in the air, there are boats on the ground, and alchemy has also been applied to the daily life of the people, which is magical. Although the country of Yankang is in turmoil, it will not be in chaos for long, and then it will be extremely powerful!"
The young patriarch took him to a lake on the mountain, stood by the lake, surrounded by jade willows, and said curiously, "which do you think is more promising between the sect and the country? Listen to your meaning, do you think the sect can't be an enemy of the country?"
Qin Mu nodded and said, "primary school, University and Imperial College have determined that Yankang is the largest sect in the world. Other sects are primary schools and universities of this sect, providing scholars for Yankang. How do these sects compete with Yankang?"
The young master sat down, and there were two pairs of fishing rods on the bank. He gave Qin Mu one and threw the bait into the water, laughing, "but now the world is in chaos, many sects take the opportunity to revolt, and a prairie fire. Coupled with the serious damage to the master of Yankang, I see that Yankang is in danger, and the country may be destroyed at any time!"
Qin Mu also threw a fishing line and bait into the water, dumbfounded and said, "master, you deceive me, right? The master of Yankang is nothing more than playing hard to get, and wants to take the opportunity to catch all the opposition forces in the world. This can't hide from me, and naturally can't hide from the master."
The young master looked at the lake calmly, and after a moment said, "not only is it hard to get, but you also lack a bitter meat trick. The national master Yankang was indeed seriously injured, and his injury was very serious. Otherwise, he could not fool all schools in the world."
Qin Mu was startled and said quietly, "did the master Yankang do it himself?"
The young patriarch shook his head: "there was another person who started it. It is said that three old monsters of my age attacked him together and hit him hard. I saw him after he returned to Beijing. The injury was really serious."
Qin Mu was stunned. He always thought that the national division of Yankang was using hard to get means to lure the opposition forces, but he didn't expect that the national division of Yankang was really injured.
"He tried his best to draw these people out."
The young patriarch said calmly, "if these sects think that this can get rid of Yan Kang and destroy Yan Kang, I'm afraid they will suffer a loss. Young leader, what do you think of Yan Kang?"
Qin Mu said solemnly, "among people, heroes are broad-minded and unparalleled talents."
The young patriarch smiled: "when he came to me and asked me, I also thought so. I originally wanted to take him as a disciple, but his talent was broad, and he had a vague momentum to surpass me, so I gave up this idea, so as not to delay his future. Then, since the state of Yan Kang is above all sects and sects in the world, and can't defeat the enemy, and the state of Yan Kang is an unprecedented genius, how should my holy church deal with itself?"
His words have the meaning of taking an examination of the school.
Since he saw Qin Mu's first words this time, he began to test Qin Mu.
Qin Mu participated in the grand examination of Taiyuan University and became a scholar of Taiyuan University. It was only the first test, which was his strength. Now, it is to test his wisdom, whether he has the wisdom to control the Tianmo sect, and whether he has the wisdom to become the leader of the sect.
Qin Mu thought for a moment and said, "there are two ways for our holy religion to become a country. One way is to turn religion into a country, and let our holy religion establish a country. To establish a country, we must stay away from Yankang. The national fortune of Yankang is more prosperous, and after the National Army calms down the chaos, it is bound to use troops abroad. At home, we cannot compete with Yankang, and we are too close to it, and we cannot compete with Yankang. But if we stay away from Yankang, the foundation of our holy religion does not exist, and we are afraid that it will not improve for decades."
The young patriarch nodded and said, "the first road is extremely difficult. Our holy church is based on the people of the market and left Yankang, which is a broken foundation. This road is not desirable. What about the second road?"
"The second way is attachment."
Qin Mu said, "the holy religion depends on Yankang."
The young master's face changed slightly, sneered and said, "as the leader, you want me to destroy the holy religion? How dare you, I'll kill your head!"
Note 1: the secretary is not a loanword, but an ancient official position. The Secretary Supervisor is responsible for guarding the royal collection, which was established in the Eastern Han Dynasty, while the position similar to the Secretary Supervisor originated earlier, in the Zhou Dynasty. During the Tang Dynasty, Wei Zheng once served as a Secretary Supervisor. The official position system adopted by Mu Shen Ji is the nine grades and eighteen grades system of the Tang Dynasty.
