In the afternoon, Wei Chen, accompanied by Liu Tingxi, the head of the academy, came to the Common Hall of the Hanlin Academy.
After the palace examination, the imperial court will arrange for the Ministry of Rites to organize the imperial examination. The Hanlin Academy will set the questions and select those with both ability and political integrity from among the new scholars as Shujishi. They will enter the Hanlin Academy to study for three years, and their academy will be Shuchang. pavilion.
In Tianyou's ninth year of study, a total of thirty-six new subjects were admitted. They are all in the common hall, waiting for the arrival of new teachers.
As soon as Wei Chen entered the door, he felt that the common hall was in order, which was very different from the lazy and lax main hall of Hanlin Academy.
The new shujis were all sitting upright, with either excitement or seriousness on their faces. Apparently they still retained the sense of pride and honor of being selected as shujis after being named on the gold list.
Seeing this scene, Wei Chen was quite pleased. At least the spirit of this new generation of sage warriors seemed to be very good.
If they are all lifeless old people who are just getting along, then it will be meaningless for Wei Chen to be a good teacher in this common hall.
After Liu Tingxi announced the appointment of Wei Chen as a teacher in the Common Hall, he left with a smile and gave up the stage to Wei Chen.
After seeing off the president, Wei Chen stepped out and delivered an impassioned inaugural speech under the eager eyes of the concubines.
As for the content, it is nothing more than praising all the concubines in front of me as talents of the Great Zhou Dynasty. I hope they can guard against arrogance and impetuosity and take the world as their own responsibility.
In short, they talk about ideals and ambitions, and spray out all kinds of famous sayings and aphorisms for free.
These new scholars had just experienced the scene of the roll call outside Donghua Gate not long ago. They were in high spirits. When they heard Wei Chen's speech, they naturally worshiped with enthusiasm and wished they could immediately join the army under the guidance of Wei Chen. The pavilion pays homage to the prime minister, makes great achievements, and is famous in history.
Wei Chen wanted this effect, so he immediately struck while the iron was hot and started talking to the concubines one by one.
Any Shujishi in the Shuchang Hall is carefully selected from among the new scholars. Although it is not as good as Chen Shao and Liao Shiyu, who can be directly awarded the title of Sandingjia, it can definitely be regarded as a high-ranking scholar in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Reserve talent for officials.
Only twenty or thirty Shujishi are selected every three years. With these qualifications and background, their future career will be bright, and they will be much more popular than those with master's and doctorate degrees from famous schools in Wei Chen's previous life.
Now these thirty-six freshly baked, tender, white, and fragrant baby lumps are placed in front of Wei Chen, and Wei Chen will naturally not let go of any of them.
Wei Chen asked the librarian who assisted him in teaching to arrange the order and talk to these sages one by one. Through asking questions and chatting, he learned about the character and talents of these people so that he could know them well.
When the long conversation ended, the setting sun in the distance had already illuminated the courtyard outside the Common Hall in bright red. However, Wei Chen did not feel tired at all. Instead, he was full of energy and inexplicably excited.
There are so many talented people in this class!
If Sheng Changfeng, whom Wei Chen is familiar with, is used as a criterion, then among this group of concubines, there are at least seven or eight people who are not inferior to Sheng Changfeng, and even surpass Sheng Changfeng in some aspects.
Wang Shouyu, Yin Qu, Gu Yangqian, Liu Boxheng, Lin Ruchu, Han Lun, Jiang Ling.
Wei Chen made a point of remembering the names of these seven people, and he took it upon himself to give them the title "Qi Pu" in his heart, to remind himself that these seven people were seven pieces of jade, and they must be carved with care.
In addition to "Qipu", there are also Sheng Changfeng, Lu Zishou, Xu Yue and others who have great potential.
The rest of the Shujishi are not weak. After all, they are all elite talents selected from the Jinshi. No matter how bad they are, they can't be any worse.
Wei Chen planned to use his time as a teacher in the Common Hall to teach students in accordance with their aptitude and instill some of his ideas and concepts into these people step by step.
Transforming all thirty-six common people into Wei Chen's most loyal fans is such a good thing that it is impossible to even think about it with your toes.
Wei Chen only wanted to sow the seeds of "Wei Xue" in their hearts. Even if only a few of them agreed with his doctrine and were willing to follow him, that would be enough.
As for the others, Wei Chen regarded it as building connections for his future self.
When these concubines stand in the court in the future, no matter whether they have the same political views as Wei Chen or not, they will have to take care of today's incense feeling in their hearts.
It is conceivable that after a few years, these old disciples, together with Wei Chen's fellow villagers from the Jingxi Society, with Wei Chen as the core, will become a decisive force in the court.
But then again, within a few years, these people still won’t be able to count on it.
The most promising people in Jingxi Club, Chen Shao and Sheng Changbai, are still small officials like Hanlin Editor and Hanlin Editor, and they will definitely not be of much use for a while.
If Wei Chen wants to accomplish anything, he still has to hug the emperor's thigh and follow Han Zhang's footsteps.
The first day as a lecturer passed by without even realizing it.
After he was released from office, old acquaintances from the Hanlin Academy invited Wei Chen to have a small gathering together. This was the intended meaning of the question, and Wei Chen naturally had no reason to refuse.
Wei Chen's friends Sheng Changbai and Wang Yaochen, students Chen Shao, Liao Shiyu and Sheng Changfeng were all present. Li Zuochang, Cai Xuan, Lu Ning and others were also present.
Everyone asked for a private room in the Qingfeng Building not far from the Hanlin Academy. They drank and chatted freely, talking about wine, flowers, tea, and delicious food. Even if they didn't talk about business, it was quite comfortable.
Wei Chen drank a few drinks with him, and seeing that it was getting late, he got up to say goodbye. Everyone knew that he was newly married, but no one had the sense to force Wei Chen to stay. They just laughed and joked a few words, and then let Wei Chen go first.
When Wei Chen returned to Wei's house in Laoya Lane, the evening glow had already taken up most of the sky.
As soon as he entered the house, Wei Chen saw many maids and wives holding rags and buckets, carefully cleaning every corner. He called someone to ask, and found out that this was the order of the two ladies.
Although Wei Chen is usually clean and tidy, the definition of cleanliness in the eyes of men and cleanliness in the eyes of women are completely different.
The place that you could walk past in the past can no longer be ignored since the Wei family welcomed its mistress.
Even though Ru Lan and Ming Lan were cute and well-behaved in front of Wei Chen, when it came to being housekeepers, they could still keep a straight face and punish the servants who made mistakes until they were bitten.
Although they are young, they come from official families and have been educated in court etiquette by Aunt Kong since childhood.
Just standing there, she has the temperament of a matron, without the slightest bit of shabby charisma, her gentle and gentle eyes contain a majesty that is not angry, and she can calm down the scene as soon as she opens her mouth.
Although the servants of the Wei family have quite complicated backgrounds and even have female envoys given by the palace, they are still submissive and do not dare to make any mistakes in front of the two ladies, Ru Lan and Ming Lan.
When Wei Chen hurried back to the back house, the lights were on, and he could vaguely see two hazy figures sitting under the lights.
Seeing this scene, Wei Chen suddenly felt warm in his heart.
During his three years in Yuzhou, the huge back house of the state government was just a place for reading and sleeping for the busy Wei Chen.
But today, when Wei Chen returned to the back house after finishing his official duties, he felt at home for the first time, at ease and comfortable, as if as long as he returned here, all the worries and fatigue during the day would be gone.
"This feels so good!"
A smile appeared on Wei Chen's lips, and he unconsciously quickened his pace.
The sound of the soles of boots stepping on the stone slabs outside the house attracted the attention of the beautiful figures under the lamp. When Wei Chen opened the door, he happened to be greeted by two beautiful faces that were both happy and angry.
Wei Chen smiled and opened his arms: "Madams, your husband is back!"
