Prime Minister

Chapter 54
Professor Hu of the county school sat upright and looked at Guo Xueyan and Guo Lin on the side, showing helplessness.

"Brother Guo, you and I have known each other for more than ten years. There is something I must tell you. Your apprentice surnamed Zhang has offended someone. This is no longer a rumor in the yamen. Although I have the heart to help you, I can't help it. "

Guo Xuejiao said: "Can't you really think of a way to learn? Come forward and talk to the county clerk?"

"I also went to fight for you, but I really can't afford to offend the person who is behind the scenes." Professor Hu sighed, wanting to go back to the humiliation he suffered before.

Guo Xueyan looked at Guo Lin on the side, and said, "Professor Hu, to be honest, I don't distinguish between this student and Guo Lin. I beg you, you can think of a way."

Professor Hu said with a sullen face: "Confused, Brother Guo, don't you understand now? This is the end of the matter, if you continue to interfere, even Guo Lin's future will be gone. The words in front of me have some weight, if Guo Lin does not pass the test this time, he will also fail the test in the future."

Guo Xuejia struggled for a while, then looked at Guo Lin again, the pain on his face was like being cut by a knife.

"Zhang Yue is a good boy. At least let him take the test. It doesn't matter if he doesn't pass the test, but it's better than not even allowing him to take the test! If this blows continue, this child will be ruined in the future."

Professor Hu sighed: "There is no way to do it now. We are not great people, anyone can help, and it's good if we can take care of ourselves. Well, in a while, the assistant professor of state school will come, I will not leave you in vain. "

Guo Lin helped Guo Xuejiu to get up from the seat.

Guo Xueyan went behind the door and looked back at Professor Hu again.Professor Hu shook his head at him.

Guo Xuejia walked out the door, and finally couldn't help wiping his tears with his sleeves: "I'm useless."

Guo Lin gritted his teeth and said, "Dad, this is too bullying. In a word, if you don't let me take the exam, I won't let you take the exam. If I have any prospects in the future, I will definitely let out this nasty anger."

"Hey, don't say it, didn't you hear it, don't be implicated, or your future will be lost."

Professor Hu also sighed.

Although he is a professor of county studies, others often call him a righteous person, but in fact he is not an official.

The professor of county school and state school, Qingshi Xingxue were all recruited and established by state and county officials.For example, when Yan Shu was appointed prefect of Tianfu, he hired Fan Zhongyan to be in charge of the school.

When Fan Zhongyan was the prefect of Suzhou, he invited Hu Yuan as a professor of Suzhou County Studies.

After the Qingli New Deal, the imperial court slightly standardized the management of schools in prefectures and counties.

State and county science professors can be granted the post of long-history minister, but the personnel are still recommended by the state and county magistrates themselves.Professor Hu has an official position in name, but he is only removed by the Zhongshutang, not by the court.To put it bluntly, he was recruited by state and county officials and was not included in the official system of the imperial court.

Professor Hu is also a famous scholar in the county. He has been a teaching assistant in the county school for more than ten years. He has just turned to the county magistrate and has a little weight to speak.

Soon Professor Hu met with Li Xuezheng's teaching assistant.

Professor Hu knew that Li Xuezheng was stronger than himself. He originally selected people with official status, and was later established as a scholar by Zhizhou Zheng.In this way, the current official levy is turned into an academic official, without the Zhongshu or the Ministry of Personnel, as long as he applies to the Ministry of Rites, he can become a professor after being reviewed by the Imperial Academy.

Li Xuezheng can manage all academies and schools in the state, including county schools in several counties.At that time, there was no promotion and academic affairs department, and Li Xuezheng put it bluntly as the director of the Jianzhou Education Department.

As for this state school teaching assistant, he is Li Xuezheng's confidant.

"I have seen..."

The teaching assistant waved his hand and said, "You and I will not be rude. I am here under the order of Xuezheng. This time I came to Pucheng for one thing."

"Despite your orders." Professor Hu said.

The teaching assistant said: "The school is about to select some students from the county school to enter the state school. Here is the list!"

Professor Hu was surprised when he heard the words, and immediately took the list to read, but saw that there were only five people on the list.

Zhang Yue!

When Professor Hu saw the name, his eyes widened immediately.

Professor Hu couldn't help asking: "Dare to ask if these five people must be in the state?"

"This is the meaning of learning, of course it is."

The teaching assistant said: "It's okay if you can't remember it for a while. You can go get the directory and check it. I'll need someone in the next few days, and then I'll return to the state to return to my life."

Professor Hu couldn't help but wonder: "This Li He and Zhang Fifteen are both outstanding students in the county. Such an important person... it really makes me embarrassed."

The teaching assistant said: "It is precisely because of the outstanding students that they have to be admitted to the state school for personal assessment. In the future, they can be recommended to Beijing to participate in the make-up test of the Taixue school."

"Ling-jun asked, how should I explain it?"

The teaching assistant said with a stern face: "What are you going to explain? You were promoted from the county school to the state school, and you didn't leave your county? Don't worry, Li Xuezhi treats me, and he will recommend a few students from your county school in the future for the Taixue make-up exam. Otherwise, you also know Li Xuezheng's temper."

"Yes, I'll do it right away. But this matter may not be allowed on your side."

The teaching assistant nodded and said: "Okay, then you go to do it first, and I will let Xuezheng talk about it."

Professor Hu sent the teaching assistant out, and everything else was okay, except for this Zhang Yue.

The state school sent people to ask for someone, and they directly hired them without going through the state school public examination. As a result, the other party did not even have the qualifications for the county school entrance examination, and was rejected because of the conclusion.It's really embarrassing to say that.

It's all these villains who do it.

Professor Hu hurried out the door and said to Sui Ren, "Go and call Mr. Guo back immediately."

"Which Mr. Guo?"

Professor Hu was taken aback, and suddenly remembered that he didn't even know where Guo Xueyan lived in the county seat.

It's over, no one can be found this time.

At the moment, Professor Hu did not dare to neglect, and reported the matter to the county magistrate.

Early the next morning.

Outside a post office room in the county government office.

Lu Ties was about to take out the key to open the door, but saw two people squatting outside the door.

"Xu Dutou, what are you doing here?"

Lu Ties glanced at it, and his face was suddenly displeased.

Xu Dutou accompanied him with a smile and said, "Poster is polite, this is my brother, I have something to ask you today."

Zhang Shi stood up with two boxes on the side and said, "Tie Si, I'm Zhang Shi who lives in Shuinan New Street. Today I'm begging you for my brother's admission to the county school."

Lu Ties shook his head and said, "Early in the morning, come and talk first."

Saying that Lu Ties opened the door and entered the house, Zhang Shi put the two boxes on Lu Ties' case.

Lu Ties shouted: "What do you put this for? Take it!
Zhang Shi hurriedly said, "Yes, yes."

Speaking of which, Zhang Shi lifted the two boxes in his hands.

Lu Tiessi walked to the shelf, sorted out the files, and said with his back to them: "The yamen is busy, you guys will keep it short."

Zhang Shi said: "That's right, my family Saburo is going to the county school for the exam, but Baozheng refused to make a statement for him. I asked Baozheng and he said that unless you nodded, he would not dare to make a statement."

"What happened to your Saburo?"

Zhang Shi said: "It's not that he did something wrong, it's my family's Erlang who escaped... escaped marriage."

Lu Tiesi said with a sneer, "I know, it's the Zhang Erlang who escaped from Zhao Yasi's house. This man is amazing. When Chen Lingjun invited the students of the county school, he was very arrogant when I met him."

Speaking of which, the two of them seem to have some Liang Zi, Zhang Shi also doesn't know how his second brother has offended others.Zhang Shi said: "My Erlang is young and ignorant, and he has invited a lot of posts by the Secretary. This time, my Saburo's affidavit, please show your hand. The county school registration is only today, and if you miss my Saburo, the future will be lost."

Xu Dutou said: "Lu Tiesi, who in the yamen knows that you are the most kind-hearted, and you are the most generous when it comes to urgency. Just help my brother!"

Lu Tieshi said: "Looking at the head of the capital, then I will tell the truth. Your family's Erlang's affairs can be big or small. In the big case, no one can guarantee your family's Saburo's marriage, but in the future. Small talk, that's it, after all, your family's Erlang's affairs don't involve your family's Saburo."

"Usually Xu Dutou said a few words, and I loosened up for Cao Baozheng, and then passed."

Lu Ties shook his head and said: "But today's matter is not that I don't help, but why should I offend people for your Saburo's affairs? Taking your things back, Lu will have no luck."

"Poster..."

"What are you doing like this? If you really want to help your family Saburo, I will show you a clear way. Who is the bitter master? Go to his way."

Zhang Shi asked, "The meaning of Post Secretary is Zhao Yasi?"

Lu Tiesi immediately said: "I didn't say that, you Zhang Dalang guessed it yourself."

While speaking, a gentleman said from outside: "Tie Si, Lingjun and Xuezheng have an invitation!"

Lu Ties said: "Okay."

Saying that, Lu Ties was about to lock the door and said, "What are you two doing?"

"Tie Si, we are waiting for you to come back."

"There's no need." Lu Ties showed no good expression at all.

Lu Tiesi sneered and walked to the second hall of the county yamen, thinking that he had offended the yamen in the yamen.

When Lu Ties entered the second hall, he saw that the magistrate was looking at him with cold eyes.

Luties shuddered from top to bottom.

The county magistrate said coldly, "Lu Tiesi, how have you been recently!"

When Lu Ties heard this, his legs went weak, and he knelt down and kowtowed with a thud...

The cold wind was bleak. At this moment, Zhang Shi and Xu Dutou were walking around on the cross street in front of the county government street.

Zhang Shi wiped his tears as he walked, he really had no face to go back to face his third younger brother, all of this was because his big brother was useless.

"Zhang Daguan people... Daguan people..."

A shrill voice came from the cold wind.

Zhang Shi didn't know what it was called. In the past, before his family was forced into a downfall by Zhao Yasi, many people called him a high-ranking official.Now the Zhang family is not as good as before, everyone calls him Zhang Dalang, uncle.

"Brother Xian, isn't this Lu Tiesi?" Xu Du pointed his head back.

Zhang Shi looked back and saw that it was indeed Lu Tiessi, but it was a little different, but he saw that his cheeks were already high and swollen.

"Lu Tiesi, how did you become like this?" Zhang Shi was taken aback.

Lu Tiessi opened his mouth wide and stretched out his hand and pointed inwards, Zhang Shi was really surprised, Lu Tiessi only had a few loose teeth in his mouth.

I just saw that this is not the case, how did this turn around become like this.

"Zhang Daguanren, please hold your hands high and spare my life!" Lu Tiesi knelt down with a thud, and cried very miserably.
