Chapter 1537
1213. Goudan High School
Wen Tianxiang finally understood the plan of Zhao Dongting and the empress, and smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you and the empress should take this opportunity to completely pacify the great tribes of Xixia?"
"certainly."
Zhao Dongting did not hide it from Wen Tianxiang and said bluntly: "These big clans controlled the military departments of the Xixia for decades. Xixia wanted to be in a long-term state and eliminated them to make it happen once and for all. Even if these people were unable to stop Xixia from becoming a vassal of our Song Dynasty, it would be a factor of uncertainty in the future. Even if they were not completely pulled out, they had to lose their power."
Wen Tianxiang just nodded slightly and stopped talking.
After hearing Zhao Dongting's words, he was completely relieved about the situation in the Song Dynasty and Western Xia.
The emperor can completely control the Song Dynasty court, and there are also empresses in the Xixia who cooperate with each other. If this is the case, it would be strange if the Xixia clans cannot lose their power.
The next day alone, Zhao Dongting, Wen Tianxiang and others led the army and continued to head towards Lin'an Prefecture.
During the Western Xia period, Zhao Dongting, except for a few people such as Wen Tianxiang, never told anyone else.
Because Chen Wenlong only needed to raise food and grass in Changsha, with the military qualities of the old soldiers in Xianglong Military Region and Shuzhong Military Region, he could go to war in a very short time.
It was not a short time before the Western Xia army approached the border of the Song Dynasty.
Zhao Dongting was so happy that he pretended to be confused.
At this time, the Song Dynasty made the unprepared appearance, which made Heliancheng and Qu Rujian less nervous.
Of course, if Chen Wenlong secretly raised food and grass to Xixia, there would be a different matter.
However, even if Heliancheng and Qu Rujian and the others were fully prepared, the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty would not be afraid.
In Changsha City, the new science and technology list was finally released due to the anticipation of the students.
An official wearing a big red silk went to the front street to release the results.
The 18 imperial examinations in the Song Dynasty, totaling 18 lists.
These lists are based on big red paper, and are listed on the list of students who are listed on Jinyin.
The moment the results were released, the crowd suddenly became excited.
There was another lively scene of some people crying and some people laughing.
Li Goudan also watched among the crowd with her father.
His body was not yet fully developed and was too short. His father was illiterate and had to carry him on his shoulders.
Just as he carried Li Goudan onto his shoulder, his father couldn't help asking repeatedly: "Have you been beaten? Have you been beaten?"
Li Goudan's eyes were directly placed on the economics list.
Sweep from top to bottom.
In just a few moments, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes and shouted: "I'm hit! Father! I'm hit!"
His father also shines in his eyes, "How many ranks?"
Li Goudan said: "The Fifteenth in Economics!"
"good!"
"good!"
His father didn't put him down his shoulders, but tears flashed in his eyes.
This was something he had never dared to think about before.
Their old Li family must be glorious of their ancestors because of Li Zhao's kindness.
Among the crowd around, many people looked at Li Goudan. For nothing else, just because they heard him shouting "I'm hit".
Nowadays, more and more scholars are enrolling in the imperial examinations in the Song Dynasty, and the threshold is getting higher and higher. The proportion of people who can pass the imperial examinations is getting smaller and smaller than in previous years.
Take this year for example. The Song Dynasty was afraid that there were nearly 3,000 people, and there were very few people who did not sign up for the palace examination. However, the number of people admitted to Jinshi in the court was only a few hundred.
Seeing Li Goudan's tender appearance again, these students were even more surprised.
Some people feel ashamed.
They were much older than Li Goudan, but they failed the exam in high school.
People die, and money must be thrown away, but that's it.
Later, the name Li Zhaoen was also spread among the crowd.
The youngest scholar, the youngest juren, and the youngest Jinshi.
Li Goudan must have become famous among scholars from the Song Dynasty. Perhaps even many people in the past would still talk about it, as long as no one broke his record.
Soon, some people who looked like housekeepers came to Li Goudan and his son. They came for nothing else, but they handed their own invitations.
This has happened every year in previous years.
In Changsha City, and even the officials and gentry in the surrounding cities outside Changsha City, they all want to get close to these new Jinshi.
After all, no one can tell how many achievements these new Jinshi will achieve in the future.
However, the prosperity of the family requires talents from generation to generation.
As for those wealthy businessmen, they want to join forces with officials and businessmen. In this way, they can get more or less convenience in the future.
Take Mao Jue, who was the first high school in the imperial examination, for example, his family was even poorer than Zhong Jian. When he arrived in Changsha for the palace examination, he couldn't even fill his stomach.
It was the wealthy man in Changsha City who helped him, which allowed him to have peace of mind for the imperial examination.
Later, Mao Kuo's high school graduates and thanked him for his kindness, he also married the daughter of the rich man.
Now Mao Rio is on duty at Dali Road, and his position is similar to Zhong Jian. He is considered a vassal in the Song Dynasty, and the status of the rich family has also risen.
Although Mao's promotion does not mean that they can do anything wrong and do business through improper means. At least, no one dares to deal with them with improper means.
This is the benefit.
Unfortunately, Li Goudan was still young, and looking at the butlers who were surrounded by him, he was at a loss.
As for his father, his expression was similar to his.
He was just an honest farmer, and at most he had dealt with Mr. Ma. When the people in front of him reported their own homes, they would be more important than Mr. Ma's family. Many of the housekeepers even had a lot of dignity than Mr. Ma.
While everyone was talking, Li Goudan's father just sued him repeatedly, and hurriedly carried Li Goudan and walked out of the crowd.
But he didn't know that this scene also fell into the eyes of someone not far away from the side.
This person is the housekeeper of Chen Wenlong's family.
The butlers from various families were slightly stunned when they saw Li Goudan and his son leaving like this.
But I soon realized and walked towards the Jinshi in the other high school respectively.
Li Goudan is a talented person, but it is not the only choice.
To put it bluntly, to find Jinshi who is willing to be close to them among such a group of people, all they can do is to cast a wide net.
After a while, watching Li Goudan and his son walk away. The housekeeper of Chen Wenlong also left the crowd with a smile and returned to Chen Wenlong's mansion.
It was late at night, and Chen Wenlong returned to the Chen Mansion with Juerong.
The old butler was waiting at the gate.
Chen Wenlong saw him as soon as he got out of the sedan chair, with a smile on his face and said, "How?"
The goatee said, "Go back to the master, then Li Zhaoen and his son did not accept any invitations from any family."
Chen Wenlong smiled even stronger and sighed: "It's rare, it's rare..."
The goatee butler agreed, "It's really rare. According to the young people's inquiry, Li Zhaoen's family is not rich, but it is just a family that can barely be considered a wealthy family. Faced with the enlistment of so many wealthy families, he was not moved at all, which really surprised the villain! Master, your pair of golden eyes are really admirable."
When Chen Wenlong heard this, he couldn't help but show a slight look of complacency, "In recent years, these eyes have always seen many people of all kinds."
I just don’t know what he would think if he knew that Li Goudan and his son didn’t accept the invitation just because they were timid in their hearts.
In Changsha City, the lively atmosphere has not passed.
Although the list has been announced, the subsequent appointments of officials are undoubtedly the highlight.
Before, the students were looking forward to the list, but now, the new Jinshi in various subjects are looking forward to the appointment of the imperial court.
In previous years, the rankings of Jinshi in various subjects were high and low. However, the size of the official positions that the imperial court granted them was not entirely determined by ranking.
What kind of official positions can be awarded, or even the city, prefecture and county will have a great impact on their future career.
Perhaps the one who is most indifferent to this is Li Goudan and his son.
They were so happy to be able to go to high school.
When the imperial examination just ended, both father and son were just staying in the inn. This time, they traveled around Changsha City.
Of course, this is not entirely because they are not worried about what official position they will hold in the future. More importantly, they are afraid that they do not have much understanding of the official title system in the court.
Li Goudan is still too young after all.
