Chapter Six Hundred and Ninety First Change

The rickety carriage is struggling to climb the mountain.

Yang Yuanqing sat alone in the carriage.

In his hand, he held the letter of appointment from Shanhe Academy and a settling-in allowance.

It is said that this is the benefit of Shanhe Academy to all the gentlemen. Make sure that everyone has no worries and can teach with peace of mind.

The carriage swayed up the mountain and arrived at the gate of the academy.

Someone had already greeted him at the gate of the academy, all of them looked excited.

"San Yuangong, you are finally here. The head of the mountain said that you will come to our academy to teach. It is so exciting. We have been looking forward to this day, and finally you are here."

Yang Yuanqing got out of the carriage, "Everyone, you don't need to call the old man Sanyuan Gong. It's just mediocre, and I can't afford the reputation of Sanyuan Gong."

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.

It's mediocre, and it has already spread throughout the capital.

It is being spread all over the world through people from all walks of life.

The Sanyuan Gong back then was just mediocre.

I don't know how many people laughed at home.

Zhongshu ordered Mr. Li to be more straightforward, and the banquet held thirty seats. Because he is happy.

Many people in the capital went to join in the show, demoting Yang Yuanqing to nothing in front of Mr. Li.

What Sanyuan Gong is, it's just good luck.

Yang Yuanqing suffered the most intense blow in his life.

The situation is difficult, even worse than the time of exile.

At that time, he was really talented and learned. He was exiled, and countless people regretted his talent and learning.

Today, countless people are cheering for mediocrity.

In his lifetime, he could trample San Yuangong under his feet and humiliate him severely, and countless people flocked to him.

These people regard Duke Sanyuan as a stepping stone to fame.

Outdated characters, as they should be.

The evil of human nature is infinitely magnified.

Of course, it is also inseparable from someone deliberately fueling the flames.

For example, Zhongshu Ling Li adults,

There are 30 seats for the banquet.

It can be described as red fruit.

Those who flatter their beards naturally swarmed up. With his mouth, articles, and spittle, he scolded San Yuangong from head to toe, threatening to nail him to the pillar of shame in the literary world.

Yang Yuanqing was so glorious back then, but now he is so desolate.

It can be said that it is notorious all over the world.

Not surprisingly, it's just mediocre, and it's the word that appears most frequently in the entire capital.

Even the big girl and the young daughter-in-law who went to the street to buy vegetables, picked up a handful of vegetable leaves, would say: "It's just mediocre!"

Mental endurance, as long as it is a little weak, it has long been unbearable and hanged itself.

Yang Yuanqing not only didn't use a rope to tie himself up, but instead took the letter of appointment from Gu Jiu.

Gu Jiu said to him at the time: "Mr. Yang has already tasted the warmth and coldness of the world. Madam, I won't hide it from you. I don't know how much talent you have left to learn. I use you because you have a good reputation. Whether it's San Yuangong's reputation or his mediocre notoriety.

Shanhe Academy needs a controversial gentleman like you, because Shanhe Academy wants to use your name to gain a reputation all over the world, even if it is notorious.

Only when it is full of controversy can it attract enough attention. With prestige, with Shanhe Academy's imperial examination results, he will soon be able to wash away his notoriety.

As for you, sir, whether you can use the platform of Shanhe Academy to wash away your mediocre reputation depends only on yourself. Would you like to challenge sir? "

Yang Yuanqing responded to Gu Jiu with actions, and he simply accepted the letter of appointment.

"Thank you Madam Zhao for looking up to this old man. This old man has spent half his life full of craftsmanship, but he is still capable of teaching one or two students."

"It's good if you are competent. The specific class schedule is up to you to make up your own mind, and my wife will not ask. In the next period of time, you will be criticized and even verbally insulted. I hope Mr. Yang is really prepared."

Yang Yuanqing smiled, "Thank you Madam for your concern."

Gu Jiu said again: "I would like to remind you again that the "Collection of Essays on the No. 2 of the Previous Rankings" will be published soon, and after that, Mr. Li's personal anthology will be published. They are all articles he has accumulated over the years, and his literary talents are outstanding.

At that time, you will suffer even more criticism than mediocrity, and even the identity of San Yuangong will be questioned. If you want to fight back, you can send someone to find me at any time. Wenqing Bookstore will give priority to publishing anthologies for you. "

"Thank you madam! I have no idea of ​​publishing a personal anthology."

"I respect your opinion."

...

Standing at the gate of Shanhe Academy at this moment, facing the academy staff who warmly greeted him, Yang Yuanqing laughed at himself.

"Thank you for your warm welcome. I wonder if the head of the mountain is convenient at this time?"

"Convenient, convenient. Sanyuan...Mr. Yang this way."

After meeting Shanzhang, he officially settled down in Shanhe Academy.

A small two-story building is his home.

From today onwards, he will be accompanied by criticism, questioning, and even humiliation, preaching, accepting karma and resolving doubts.

Looking at the railing on the second floor.

Everyone is curious about him, why is he not curious about this world.

The evil and good of human nature have been seen, tasted, and experienced.

In the year of knowing his destiny, he will face difficulties again. It's like when you were young and crazy, stirring up the situation in the world and attracting the attention of the world's literary circles.

...

The news that Shanhe Academy hired mediocre Duke Sanyuan as a teacher spread throughout the capital within a day, as if it had grown wings.

Immediately afterwards, the influence brought by Sanyuangong Yang Yuanqing became prominent.

In Shanhe Academy, some students asked to drop out.

Sanyuan Gong is mediocre, a generation who deceives the world.

Shanhe Academy hired this person as a teacher, he was clearly a raccoon of the same breed.

For the sake of reputation and future, I had to drop out of school. You must never have anything to do with bullies.

Thinking that his teacher will be the notorious Sanyuan Gong, countless students feel that their future is hopeless.

No amount of scholarships can compare with Qiancheng.

Some people dropped out of school here, but outside the academy, it was another scene.

More people flocked to Xinmin County to take the entrance examination for Shanhe Academy.

"Are these people crazy?"

The dropouts couldn't believe it.

The teachers and students of the Imperial College were even more shocked.

"It's just mediocre. Sanyuan Gong has a bad reputation. Why do so many people come to apply for the Shanhe Academy?"

Everyone is asking why.

Even the teachers and students of Shanhe Academy were dumbfounded.

I thought the academy would be depressed, but why did the number of people applying for the exam increase instead of drop.

Unreasonable!

Are those students getting water in their heads?

Countless people questioned.

Wang Xuecheng was also asking why.

When the streets and alleys were talking about San Yuangong, who was mediocre, he also had the idea of ​​retreating.

Thinking about giving up applying for Shanhe Academy and going back to the county to study?

When he couldn't make up his mind, a new student came to the next room. I deliberately came here from the county below to apply for Shanhe Academy.

Yan Ci moved to the academy, and his room became vacant.

Houses in Xinmin County have never had to worry about renting.

Soon, the landlord rented out the vacated room to the new students.

The new student, Xinchen, is also a boy in his twenties.

Wang Xuecheng was very curious, "Brother Chen, why did you choose to apply for Shanhe Academy at this time? Haven't you heard of the mediocre Sanyuan Gong who has been making a lot of noise recently?"

"I heard it! It was because I heard about Pingping and Sanyuan Gong that I made up my mind to apply for Shanhe Academy."

"Why?"

Wang Xuecheng became more and more confused.

Chen Tongsheng laughed, "Brother Wang used to study in his hometown, too."

Wang Xuecheng nodded.

"Brother Wang, don't you have any experience with the academy in your hometown?"

Wang Xuecheng's brain reacted slowly, and he didn't come back to his senses for a while.

Chen Tongsheng continued on his own, "Students like us who have no family background, no contacts, and no money even rely on their own hard work and the support of the whole family to get to where they are today. This journey Come on, Brother Wang should know better than me how much hardship there is."

Wang Xuecheng nodded again and again.

Reading is easy to say, but it is really too difficult for the children of peasants who have no background and connections.

Thousands of troops and horses crossing the single-plank bridge are by no means exaggerated, but realistic.

A large number of scholars were removed.

A large number of students passed the rural examination.

It can be said that being able to pass the examination and participate in the general examination is a dragon and a phoenix among the people, with both luck and strength.

Among them, most of them are students from official families. It is very rare for a poor and a poor farmer's children to persist until the examination.

Ninety-nine percent of poor scholars are only scholars. Individuals are admitted to Juren.

As for Jinshi, it is estimated that out of 10,000 poor students, there can be only one Jinshi from a farming family.

This is reality.

As long as you choose to study, you have to face such a cruel reality.

Chen Tongsheng continued: "The Mengxue in the township, the academies in the county, and the places where we study have lasted for ten, fifty, or even a hundred years. Except for the local people, who else knows? The academies are unknown, and the same is true for Mr. Unknown. The students he teaches are truly mediocre.

Coming out of such an academy, Brother Wang, have you ever thought about what is our best ending? Passing the exam as a scholar and being a teacher of elementary school is the best ending I've been waiting for. For a lifetime, he stayed in the countryside, and his reputation was not obvious. "

Wang Xuecheng asked weakly: "Is this not good?"

Chen Tongsheng smiled, "Since it's good, why did Brother Wang apply for Shanhe Academy again?"

Wang Xuecheng said honestly: "I am for the scholarship."

Chen Tongsheng said: "I am also for the scholarship. And I don't want my life to end up as a country scholar, Mr. Meng Xue. He is only mediocre, San Yuangong, and his reputation is known all over the world.

And Shanhe Academy, which risked the criticism of the whole world to hire Sanyuan Gong, will soon spread its reputation all over the world. The academies in the county, not to mention a hundred years, even two hundred years, would not be able to accumulate such a great reputation. Studying in the most famous academy in the world, studying with the most famous teacher, and in the future, you can use the students of the Imperial College to gain fame. Brother Wang is not interested in such a good thing? "

Wang Xuecheng looked dumbfounded, "But this is all infamy!"

Chen Tongsheng disagreed, "So what about infamy? Infamy is also fame. I am sure that Shanhe Academy dared to take such a big risk and hire San Yuangong as a teacher. There must be a trick. Infamy can also become a good reputation.

Moreover, Shanhe Academy's daring to hire Sanyuangong also reflects the eclectic pattern of this academy's talent reduction. Ordinary people like me, who only study for worldly fame and fortune, Shanhe Academy will definitely not despise them. And I will not dislike the bad reputation of Shanhe Academy.

Shanhe Academy is destined to be my destination. The students of Guozijian are destined to be the stepping stones under my feet. As for San Yuangong, no matter how much talent is left, I will definitely become his student. "

Such a big tone, such a big ambition.

Wang Xuecheng: "..."

Comparing myself with the other party, I really have no ambition.

And no opinion.

"Okay, well said!"

The door opened, and the two Juren who lived in the same building were standing outside the door.

"Brother, what you said just now is really a strong medicine for us. It's like enlightenment. You are obviously a layman, but you still imitate other people's arty. If you are not elegant, you will waste a lot of money."

The students who live in the second phase of renting are all in average economic conditions.

The two Juren masters are of course much better than others. But it can't be called rich, and I can't afford to rent a house in the third phase, so I can only live in the second phase.

Wang Xuecheng got up quickly and wanted to introduce two masters for Chen Tongsheng.

Unexpectedly, without waiting for an introduction, Chen Tongsheng had already chatted with the two Juren masters, and even called them brothers.

Wang Xuecheng, who was also a child, was dumbfounded by this kind of treatment.

Because since he moved in, he hasn't even gotten a straight look from the two Juren masters, let alone a different look.

He looked confused: the two Juren masters did not associate with him, it seemed that it was not just because they looked down on his childhood status. Probably because of his stupidity.

Chen Tongsheng is not only smart, but also good at socializing, and sometimes speaks amazing words.

Talking to such a person is indeed an enlightening feeling.

Wang Xuecheng thought for a long time, and finally figured it out: he doesn't need to give up Shanhe Academy, he can continue the exam.

Chen Tongsheng said yes, I think it's almost the same.

In the first contact, Chen Tongsheng replaced Yan Ci and became the guiding light in Wang Xuecheng's heart.

Yan Ci: "..."

Brother Wang, it's a bad idea to change your mind when you see something different!
