Time flies, half a year later, the new county school in Shatian County has been completed. The new county school covers an area of tens of acres. The school has red walls and white tiles, bright windows and clean windows. The yard is planted with bamboos and flowers. The decadent and old posture before the scan seemed to be completely reborn.
It is not an exaggeration to say that in the entire Shatian County, the county school buildings are the only ones in the county seat, and outside Shatian County, there are not only tall monuments of merit, but also the county school’s students flow like weaving every day. .
Lu Zheng re-implemented the old rice supplements that had been eliminated in Shatian County for many years. Moreover, as long as talented students study in the county, the county school will take charge of food and housing.
And as long as the donation of 500 taels of silver is recorded on the merit tablet, each family can send a junior to study in the county. The county school specializes in an old master’s friend, and Lu Zheng personally supervises it.
In addition, Lu Zheng also provides conveniences for scholars throughout Liangzhou. In Liangzhou Prefecture, all scholars who are willing to enter Shatian County will receive an annual salary of fifty taels of silver. In addition, they also provide free board and lodging.
As long as the students in Liangzhou are dying and fame, if they are willing to study in Shatian County, Lu Zheng is willing to give the court rice supplements on his behalf, and the treatment is the same as that of the students in this county.
The emergence of these two policies of Lu Zheng caused a great disturbance in Liangzhou. Liangzhou has always been a military center. Scholars in Liangzhou are not as good as they are in the south of the Yangtze River.
But now that Jiangnan talents have arrived in Liangzhou and have given scholars such a high courtesy, why don't they flock to them? There are a lot of people in Liangzhou, and after getting it, there are many people who have not made up for it because it is difficult to climb the relationship between officials and officials. Apart from a few wealthy family members, there are also some foreigners who have no worries about food and clothing. Although Juren has a reputation as a master, his situation is not very good.
Lu Zheng gave this kind of courtesy. Several juren masters came to Shatian County School. They lived in the county school. Not only were they rich in salary, they were also respected, and more importantly, they were able to stay with scholars every day. Such an environment. , They had never dared to think about it before!
Shatian County, talented people gathered, and the scholars in Liangzhou were grouped together. The scholar named Sha Mingluo from Longyou was shocked when he heard this, and he went from Yincheng to Liangzhou in person. After arriving at Shatian County School and seeing the environment and popularity of Shatian County School, he was very excited and praised Lu Zheng, and he wrote three couplets and two poems in one go. One of the poems read:
"Lu Jialin'er is like a precious jade..." Lu Zheng was directly overwhelmed by this poem. He asked the people below to inquire about Sha Luo's origins and realized that Sha Luo was not a Han, but an out-and-out Huren.
Hu Ren has long returned to the Dakang Dynasty, and Shaluo’s sister is the favorite concubine of Qi Lingkai, the younger brother of Qi Lingxiong, the king of Jingxi. Shaluo liked Confucianism since childhood, and was keen and intelligent at the age of twenty. At the age of twenty-two, he went to Beijing to take the entrance examination for the jinshi, and he was another extremely rare student who achieved jinshi fame.
In the past few years, Longyou has been unstable and precarious. Many academic matters have not been taken seriously, and the road of reading is also facing an embarrassing situation in Longyou. Nowadays, more than half of the officials in Longyou are even more than 90%. Appointed by the Western Palace.
Even if a scholar is awarded a Jinshi, but has not been recognized by the Jingxi Palace, the place in Jingxi would never be able to stay. Many talents, even generals who came from the army, were re-used by King Jingxi and held important positions in various places in Longyou.
This situation has made many poor people even more discouraged. Although Shaluo is also dissatisfied with this, he can't do anything about it.
But now, a small county prince in Shatian County has done such a big thing, so that scholars in Liangzhou have regained dignity. You must know that although they are useless as scholars, the energy of scholars is still very high. big.
These people can speak and write, so Sha Luo heard about what happened in Liangzhou, and Sha Luo praised Lu Zheng. He wrote poems and made couplets. These things were passed down by the reading population. For a time, Shatian County was in the whole Longzhou. You all played with demeanor, and many scholars from all over Longyou came here after hearing the wind.
These scholars first came to see the rumors of Shatian county school, and secondly, they wanted to get acquainted with Jiangnan talent, and at the same time, Master Lu Zhenglu, a great hero of the revitalization of the county school.
Lu Zheng lives in the county school and welcomes and sends him to a small county town where hundreds of scholars have gathered for a long time. This trend is not even comparable to Silver City, the first auxiliary city of Longyou.
Shatian County is very famous, and on the political level, there is another thing in Shatian County that also shakes Liangzhou, that is, Shatian County, which has never been plagued with no fire, and has a flat taxation. The tax payment for the first half of this year has been overfulfilled. Ranked first among the thirteen counties in Liangzhou.
The news came out and Liangzhou's officialdom was violently shaken, which was incredible. How is this possible?
Duan Runan, the prefect of Liangzhou, came to Shatian County in person and came with Duan Runan. In addition to the Liufangdian Shi, Zhaomo, Experience and others in the prefecture, there were also counties from several other counties.
The scene was so big, the gongs and drums were noisy, and the firecrackers rang. Wang Wenyuan led all the officials in the county office to greet him. Looking at his old face, I really laughed today.
In the past six months, Wang Wenyuan has tolerated, and the fight with Kou Xiangwen has turned from light to dark. Kou Xiangwen is responsible for the affairs, and he is responsible for picking peaches. The two had their own ambitions, and at the same time they were old rivals for many years. After all, Wang Wenyuan still took advantage of the official ranks, and Kou Xiangwen was still inferior to him.
As for Lu Zheng, Wang Wenyuan completely let go. He couldn't get involved in Lu Zheng's running a county school. In addition, Lu Zheng's running a county school would become more troublesome and he wouldn't be able to intervene, for fear of one. If you are accidentally caught in it, it is hard to say whether it is a blessing or a curse!
Lu Zheng was an official from the capital, which was rare in Longyou. Lu Zheng came after offending Dai Xiang in the capital. On the other hand, Lu Zheng had also met the emperor.
This young man was not simple. He burned a few fires when he arrived in Shatian County. He thundered in the silent place, but Wang Wenyuan clearly felt the hidden strength behind him.
There is a saying that you can't afford to provoke you and you can't hide? Wang Wenyuan knew Kou Xiangwen's roots, so he had to pinch. But he didn't know the root of Lu Zheng's fear, so he could only hide.
Regardless of whether he is pinching or hiding, he has finally come here safely in the past six months, and Shatian County has become a big show in Liangzhou today. The prefect led many Liangzhou officials to visit, which is enough to explain the problem.
More than a dozen official sedan chairs came from far away on the official road. The guards of ceremonies in front were beating the gongs and drums, solemn and solemn. When approaching the county office, the sedan chair stopped. The prefect, Duan Runan, had a shaky appearance, five short stature, slightly fat body, and splayed lips. Hu was particularly abrupt.
When he got off the sedan chair, Wang Wenyuan and the others immediately leaned forward, and Lu Zheng was squeezed behind him abruptly.
Wang Wenyuan smiled on his old face and piled up thick folds, and said: "Master Duan is here, our Shatian is really radiant, and the next official welcomes Master Duan and all the adults on behalf of the tens of thousands of people in Shatian!"
Not to be outdone, Kou Xiangwen said: "Xiaguan Kou Xiangwen welcomes Lord Duan, sirs, please!"
Standing behind Lu Zheng didn't seem to have a good chance to speak, because the people present except Duan Runan, the other county-level officials, they all knew each other well, but Lu Zheng didn't know them.
Besides, Kou Xiangwen and Wang Wenyuan were pinching them. The two of them were amiable on the surface, but in secret, Lu Zheng didn't get too far to blend in.
So he followed Bo, the master of the historian, with a smiley face, playing Qian'er, completely treating himself as a supporting role. So that Kou Xiangwen and Wang Wenyuan had a fight for a long time, and Duan Runan suddenly said:
"What? Lord Lu Zhenglu from Shatian County didn't come today?"
Lu Zheng was young and dressed in a seventh-rank official uniform. Anyone could recognize him. Obviously Duan Runan said this deliberately. Wang Wenyuan and Kou Xiangwen were stunned. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Zheng did not hesitate. Step forward calmly:
"The next official is Lu Zheng, and Mr. Jiuyang Duan is a talented person in the northwest. I am honored to see it today! I just saw Mrs Xian Zun reunite with the deceased adults and chatted happily. I didn't disturb everyone's interest. Please, sir Haihan!"
Lu Zheng said it was for everyone to Haihan, but when he looked at him, he didn't mean to be afraid of the head and tail. Although he was only a seventh-rank official, his temperament was not input to anyone present, and when he looked at his age, everyone couldn't help but praise him for a while. Xu Shi.
When Duan Runan and his party were invited into the county office, everyone turned around and felt dull. Duan Runan yelled that he was going to the county school. The county school today happened to be the day of school, and I heard Lang Lang scholars from the county school from far away.
Look at these scholars, some wear white robes, some wear light green robes, and some wear gray robes. These brand clothing are common at first glance, but when you look closely, you can see that the robes of all colors and colors are the same style.
The adults who came are all experienced people, and they were also affected by the atmosphere for a while. They only felt that the school of more than 20 acres was everywhere different from other places. Although there was no collection of books, you could smell the fragrance of books everywhere.
And the environment of this county school, although it is not in the south of the Yangtze River, it has the charm of the south of the Yangtze River. Needless to say, these are all Lu Zheng's handwriting.
"Wen Yuan, look at the clothes of these students, how do they have different personal colors, but the styles are similar? Is there a deep meaning in this?" Duan Runan suddenly asked.
"Uh..." Wang Wenyuan was speechless. He knew a fart. He hadn't been here in the county school for months. Now Lu Zheng in Shatian County is in charge of the big stall. Wang Wenyuan can't get involved in this area. Get started.
Kou Xiangwen saw this situation on the side, sneered in his heart, and said like Maitreya Buddha on his face: "Master County, this matter has to be told by Master Lu! We are able to learn in Shatian County today, and it is all due to Master Lu!
Now it’s not just Liangzhou, but Shatian County in Longyou is thriving! "
