Jinling Academy, looks close, but travels far.
There was no sedan to sit on when Jia Huan went out, so he had to walk on his legs. By the time he got close to Jinling Academy, it was already evening.
Looking closely, Jinling Academy is built on the mountain. The undulating academy buildings are quite large, with carved beams and painted columns, and red pavilions and colorful doors. The continuous sunset clouds cover the sky and the sun, making the world feel groggy. The lanterns in the academy's high pavilions are already lit. The two human lights give off a unique, profound and elegant literati mood.
While walking on the road, Jia Yun also met the imperial examination students who went to Jinling Academy to participate in the Literary Poetry Society.
These imperial examination students from Jinling Academy were not surprised when they met Jia Yun.
Since ordinary imperial examination students like them can be invited, then Jia Yun, who is the "county case chief" of Jinling Prefecture, will definitely be invited, adding to the glory and color of tonight's literati poetry meeting.
Everyone was dressed in expensive brocade clothes, with colorful jade pendants hanging around their waists, and holding folding fans. After seeing Jia Yun, they all came forward to say hello, bowed their hands, and said, "Second Master Yun, we are the same as Jia Yun. Are you on your way to participate in the Jinling Poetry Recital tonight?"
When Jia Yun heard this, she also turned around, glanced at this person, and said, "I have met all the students, so they must be on the same journey."
"Okay, then let's go together!"
Everyone has no doubt about him.
The scholars who can come to Jinling Academy at this time only have one thing in mind, and that is to recite poems and books, compose poems and poems, and be romantic writers.
Originally, Jinling Academy had this old rule in the past, that is, every time after the imperial examination and county examination in Jinling Prefecture, the local academic officials and prefects would invite the students from the county examination high school to have a dinner party and take the initiative to hold a Jinling poetry meeting, which could be regarded as a promotion. In recent times, the relationship between the imperial examination students and their classmates paved the way for their future imperial examination career. Secondly, it also meant that the officials and gentry of Jinling Prefecture wanted to win over the imperial examination students and have a close relationship.
After all, thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, don’t bully young people into poverty.
Although these students have little future now and are just some of the lowest-level students, there is no guarantee that one of them will be a scholar who will pass the Jinshi and become the best in the imperial examination. He will stand out and be favored in the future. The future is limitless, and there is no guarantee that there will be a few court officials at the level of feudal officials. Getting to know and get to know these young people with promising futures in advance can also help their future career and the future of their descendants. Pave the way.
Therefore, after Jia Yun learned about these situations, she discovered that these people were actually high school students who had achieved merit in the imperial examination and county examination. There were even scholars and candidates who came to support this Jinling Poetry Festival in person.
In the imperial examination and county examination, except for the first-place "county case leader", other children who pass the county examination need to take two examinations, one is the government examination and the other is the hospital examination. If you can rank first in high school, you can be called "Little Sanyuan".
Six Yuan, the imperial examination system calls the first place in the county examination, government examination, and hospital examination the first place, and the first place in the township examination, the general examination, and the palace examination is Jieyuan, Huiyuan, Zhuangyuan, collectively called "Liu Yuan".
He successively won the first place in the county examination, prefecture examination, college examination, township examination, joint examination, and palace examination, and was called "six yuan pass".
Jia Yun now has the reputation of being a scholar. With her status as the first "county case chief", she does not need to participate in the subsequent exams. However, after learning the time of the government exam, Jia Yun couldn't help but think deeply and planned to suppress the exam. First of all, take part in the government examination, and then come back as the head of a government case.
Others may not dare to think about "six yuan and passing the exam", but Jia Yun has a talent template, and the imperial examination is really not too difficult, and now that Jia Yucun has taken office, this may not necessarily be the case. There is no room for maneuver.
Jia Yun also chatted with a few people next to her, and after making insinuations, the theme of the evening gradually became clear in her mind.
"Hey, Brother Wang, what do you think this Jinling Poetry Fair will be like? Will there really be many literary talents and masters coming in person?"
While walking, the charter of Jinling Zhangfu couldn't help but look at his companions beside him, expressed his doubts, and asked.
"To be honest, we are very lucky and caught up with the good times."
"The new prefect of Jinling Prefecture, Jia Zhifu, has just taken office. Mr. Zhang hosted a banquet at Jinling Academy to entertain the new prefect on behalf of the Jiangnan gentry group. It can also be regarded as a blessing for the new prefect."
"Master Feng took advantage of the topic and invited talented people from all walks of life from Jinling to gather together to pave the way for talented people from Jiangnan. Only then did he startle those scholars and scholars."
"It is said that all the literati and talented people in Jiangnan Prefecture have been alarmed by this Jinling Poetry Fair. Even the scholars and scholars from previous high schools have received the news and are preparing to rush over to participate in this Jinling Poetry Fair. There are so many talented people at this Jinling Poetry Fair, it can be described as a battle between dragons and tigers!"
"Brother Zhang, at this Jinling Poetry Fair, the most we can do is come here to see the world. If we have a long experience, we are not the real protagonists! The real protagonists are the scholars and officials. If we can come here to see the world, we are mostly Look at the fact that we are high school students who passed the imperial examination for the first time, otherwise, this kind of good thing will not happen to us children."
Next to him, Wang Lu, a talented man from the Wang family of Jinling Prefecture, couldn't help but look at his companions. He also pondered and continued: "However, we have no chance to be the protagonists this time. Maybe we will have the chance to be the protagonists next time. This Jinling Poetry Club, Every year, the imperial examination will be held after the county examination, government examination, hospital examination, and township examination. It is held more frequently. If you and I can become high school scholars in the future, I wonder if we will be able to meet again at the scholar conference in April. "
"Xiucai Literary Society? Could it be that there is also a Jurenwenhui above?"
Everyone was even more surprised when they heard this.
On weekdays, these people study the books of saints and sages, never leave the front door, never step forward from the second door, and are diligent and hard-working. How can they get the knowledge of human nature and sophistication? But he really didn't know the doorway and secrets inside. Now that he heard it for the first time, he was slightly shocked and said quickly, "Please continue talking to us."
"Of course there is! It's just that if we can't attend the next Xiucai Cultural Festival, we won't be able to participate."
Wang Lu sighed and said: "This is a children's literary meeting, and the imperial examination students invited are all high school students from the county examination. And because the new Jinling prefect, Mr. Jia, has taken office, we are able to meet him." By chance and good fortune, I have the honor to participate in this extraordinary Jinling Poetry Fair. Otherwise, it would be difficult for you and me to encounter such amazing opportunities and good fortune as this Jinling Poetry Fair."
