Seeing that they were either disapproving or unconvinced or holding back their dissatisfaction, Sheng Yuan immediately raised his voice in surprise: "Can you bear in mind the suffering you have suffered today? If he were to be in a high position, he would be happy to ask the emperor to spare him this labor. Customized so that underachievers can advance without any effort?"
"Ah this..." Many people in the new imperial examination opened their mouths and were speechless.
Yes, they have all suffered, why should the underachievers who have no problem not suffer?
Sheng Yuan saw that his classmates who had previously expressed dissatisfaction became much calmer and shrugged: "Gentlemen, the adults in the court feel the same as you at this moment!"
"..."
After an awkward silence, the somewhat dazed new imperial examination candidates laughed twice, dispersed, and continued working with their tools.
Sheng Yuan did not expect that this group of people would listen to the advice. After she said a few words, they all returned to their working positions. How rare it was!
【hehe. ] The system rolled its eyes after hearing what Sheng Yuan said.
…
Although the work was hard, Emperor Jinghe did not really want to train these soldiers into field heroes, so that they would not be industrious and unable to distinguish between grain and grain, and then began normal military training.
Shengyuan and Anyu were very happy about this, but those who had just suffered from hard work were miserable.
As far as they are concerned, letting them bend bows, ride and shoot, wield swords and lift stones is not as good as letting them pick up hoes again!
"If we, the literati, who are not good at military affairs, are required to raise swords against the enemy, wouldn't this world be in chaos?"
During the break, many people complained angrily.
They were not stupid either. Even though they were dissatisfied, they did not protest during training.
Basically, I vent my depression quietly during breaks.
"That's not necessarily the case!" Sheng Yuan happened to be sitting in the middle. After listening to these discussions, she couldn't help but say, "Everyone wants to be a capital official, but no matter how big the capital is, the positions are limited. Most of us still have to be sent out. .
The mountains and rivers are high since leaving Beijing. Who can guarantee that every robber will invade? Even if we successfully reach any place, we might still have to suppress mountain bandits and drive away pirates! Although there are soldiers guarding the front, if you don't have the ability to protect yourself, you won't be able to outrun them even if you run away! "
The people who were originally noisy suddenly became quiet: "..."
If you can tell your conscience, what this girl said makes sense.
But for some reason, after two or three times, no one wanted to get close to her.
Without him, it would be too choking!
…
"It's too hard! I plan to have to work hard with my uncle after I go back!" Anyu, who had finally finished his long-distance training, felt like he was about to roll his eyes. He got up from the ground as soon as he had some strength and whispered to Sheng Yuan angrily.
"Yes! I support you!" Sheng Yuan leaned against the tree trunk weakly and pumped her fist to cheer him on.
"Humph, my uncle intends to ask the Ministry of Household Affairs to allocate funds to provide financial aid to all provinces to go to Beijing to raise children. I thought about it, we have been training all day long, and if we calculate carefully, the distance we have traveled is not less than the distance from the border guards to Beijing! "
Anyu's words were actually a bit exaggerated, but the information in his words made Sheng Yuan's eyes light up!
Hey, hey, hey! Does the court want to cover travel expenses? !
"Where's the standard?!" Sheng Yuan followed the principle that no matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat, so she wanted to see if she could have a chance to enjoy this treatment.
"Standard?" Anyu really knows.
He thought for a moment: "I remember that the candidate who traveled the farthest to Beijing would get a subsidy of thirty taels of silver; the one closest to the capital would only get one tael."
“Wouldn’t it mean that there aren’t even one or two candidates taking the exam in Beijing?”
"Oh, that's really not true!" An Yu shook his head, and after successfully attracting Sheng Yuan's attention, he immediately added, "It should be said that our students in Beijing can't even get a single copper plate!"
Sheng Yuan: "..."
