The next morning.
Li Hongbi was still sleeping soundly.
According to his usual style in the past, he must sleep until three o'clock in the morning.
As a qualified dandy, it would be a shame for him to get up too early.
The servants of the Duke's Mansion also understood this iron rule and must not disturb the young Duke before noon, otherwise there will be a "bloody disaster".
The last servant who was so ignorant had been chased by the young master carrying a bench for a long time, and finally fell into the fake lake and became seriously ill.
However, today this iron law is about to be broken.
There was a violent banging on the door, and Li Hongbi's eyes suddenly turned red, like a mad cow seeing red cloth, and murderous intent spewed out from the sky.
"What kind of blind bastard..."
Before he finished speaking, when Li Hongbi saw clearly who the visitor was, he immediately swallowed back the rest of the sentence.
"Hey, isn't this Mr. Ji? Please come in quickly."
Ji Gang looked at Li Hongbi with a half-smile, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
That's right, he is no longer Ji Qianhu, but Lord Ji Commander Tongzhi.
Because Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui was imprisoned in Dali Temple, Ji Gang took a step further and was promoted by His Majesty the Emperor to the commander of Jinyiwei, temporarily taking charge of Jinyiwei affairs.
The Ming Guard system was spread throughout the army, and even Jin Yiwei and other emperor's personal soldiers were no exception.
The Jingwei, like all local guards, has one commander, the third rank; two commanders, the third rank; four commanders, the fourth rank.
In other words, because of Li Hongbi's sharp counterattack last time, Ji Gang benefited from it and became a powerful figure in charge of Jinyiwei!
However, these secrets are naturally not enough to be disclosed to outsiders.
Ji Gang suppressed his smile and deliberately shouted coldly: "Prince Hongbi, on the order of His Majesty the Emperor, I am sending the prince to the Imperial College to take up his post!"
Li Hongbi: "???"
What?
Zhu Di, are you so poisonous?
And sent Jigang to escort me to the Imperial College to take up his post?
Is there such a disgusting dog emperor as you?
Li Hongbi was disgusted by Zhu Di's move.
But he still didn't want to give up, and still wanted to fight stubbornly.
After all, he, the young father-in-law, has no worries about food, clothing, and money. If nothing happens, he can go to Qinhuai, ten miles away, to talk to his beautiful sister. His life can be said to be carefree and happy. He only goes there when he is full and full. What kind of assistant is the Imperial College?
The officials of the Ming Dynasty were not even dogs!
Li Hongbi said with a sneer: "That Gangzi, you and I are brothers..."
"I'm sorry, we are not familiar with each other. Prince Hongbi, please don't have any relationships here!"
"..."
Li Hongbi was dumbfounded. Looking at Ji Gang's stern face, he finally realized the seriousness of the problem.
"Tsunako, tell me clearly what your Majesty wants..."
"Your Majesty ordered that if Crown Prince Hongbi fails to go even once, your Majesty will beat you up!"
Li Hongbi: "!!!"
Your uncle!
Dog Emperor, you are still a human being!
I help you solve the problem with your front foot, but you are going to deal with me with your back foot like this?
Damn it, this is so unreasonable!
"Ji Gang, I, Li Hongbi, tell you!"
"Even if I jump from here today, even if I hit my head on this wall and die, I, Li Hongbi, will not even step into the Imperial College..."
After a while, Li Hongbi was dragged out of Cao Guogong's mansion by two warriors in royal robes.
"Ji Gang, it belongs to your uncle!"
"Tsunako, at least let me change my clothes!"
"How dignified are you? How dignified are you! I want to impeach you!"
Imperial College.
Hu Yan's face was ashen and he was lecturing.
Siye Pan Yuebin and Rao Wenshu stood aside with expressionless faces.
From the perspective of the school alone, the Imperial College's Jijiu Festival is similar to the principal, and Si Ye is the vice principal.
Before this, Hu Dajijiu had been dawdling around all day, only showing up occasionally and pretending to patrol, and then no one could be seen again.
If you are just messing around with your life without any ambition, you can only imagine what the atmosphere of the Imperial College has become.
But the main problem is not here, but because of the court.
In the past, the reason why students all over the world wanted to enter the Imperial College to study and cultivate virtue was not only because there were a large number of famous scholars and scholars here, but also another important reason, that is, the Imperial College students could obtain official qualifications after completing their studies.
Especially during the Hongwu period, Imperial College students once became the mainstream in selecting officials.
Especially during the suspension of imperial examinations from the 7th year of Hongwu to the 17th year of Hongwu, a large number of Imperial College students were appointed to important positions in governments at all levels from the central to local governments. For example, in the 19th year of Hongwu, "more than a thousand of the Imperial College students were sent to the Ministry of Civil Affairs and removed from office. Granted the positions of prefecture and county magistrate."
Because of this, the Imperial College has established a lofty status and has become the cradle of the holy land that students all over the world dream of.
However, in the late Hongwu and Jianwen years, with the gradual improvement of the imperial examination, the selection of officials in the imperial court gradually changed to the imperial examination. The proportion of Imperial College students entering official positions was greatly reduced, which also greatly dampened the enthusiasm of students all over the world.
In addition, it is not easy for Imperial College students to complete their studies and obtain the qualifications to become officials. The supervisory history system established in the 29th year of Hongwu directly shattered the luck of a large number of students who wanted to take advantage of opportunities.
Then here comes the problem.
In this case, why do you still come all the way to study at the Imperial College?
Ordinary poor children cannot come without financial support, and most of them are not qualified to come!
Generally speaking, scholars from scholarly families can provide such excellent conditions in their families, so there is no need to come.
As for the children of high-ranking officials, one of them doesn’t want to come, and the other one has no need to come!
In other words, the Imperial College’s appeal to students from all over the world has been greatly reduced.
On the contrary, it is because this strict calendar system will make students waste a lot of time. During this time, they might as well study hard at home and take the imperial examination. If they can become officials directly from high school, why do they need so much trouble!
For these reasons, the Imperial College has inevitably declined since the last years of Hongwu.
Now, most of the main students in the Imperial College are the children of officials and nobles, and there are only a few civilian students from ordinary backgrounds.
Pan Yuebin and Rao Wenshu both shook their heads and smiled bitterly.
According to Lord Jijiu, I want to revitalize the Imperial College, but it’s not that easy!
If the imperial court continues to think of ways to restructure the Imperial College, especially the "History" system established by Emperor Taizu Gao, it will be enough to scare away a large number of students!
How can it be possible to revitalize the Imperial College just by relying on these nobles and officials?
Hu Yan naturally understands these principles, but there is nothing he can do about it.
After all, His Majesty the Emperor has spoken, and Hu Yan can no longer hang around like before. He must at least rectify the atmosphere in the Imperial College.
Just when he was halfway through his passionate speech and his whole body was filled with enthusiasm, an untimely harsh voice suddenly sounded.
"Ji Gang, I treat you as a brother, but you treat me as a toy?"
"I'm a dandy! Have you ever heard that a dandy also has to work?"
"Let me down quickly, or I will fight you!"
vulgar!
Extremely vulgar!
Where did this bastard thing come from?
Full of filthy words, simply vulgar!
Hu Da Jijiu immediately became angry and led everyone to the door.
"Who is making such a noise here?"
"This is a place to study and cultivate virtue, not a bustling market!"
As soon as Ji Gang saw Hu Yan, he pointed directly at Li Hongbi and said coldly: "Hu Jijiu, by the order of His Majesty, I have brought it to you!"
people?
who?
Hu Yan frowned.
"Who is this?"
"He is full of filthy words and so vulgar that our Imperial College will never accept him!"
Just kidding, although the Imperial College has declined, the selection system is still there.
Not just any cat or dog can enter the Imperial Academy!
Ji Gang's expression suddenly became strange, and he tried not to laugh.
"Ahem, that Hu Jijiu, this is Li Hongbi, the eldest son of Cao Guogong."
"Oh, by the way, he is now an assistant teacher at the Imperial College."
Hu Yan: “???”
Everyone in the Imperial College: "???"
