Gao Wu Da Xia: The fox demon lady at the beginning

Chapter 173
【In ancient times, those who wanted to show virtue to the world must first govern their country.

Those who want to govern their country must first organize their families.

If you want to improve your family, you must first cultivate your body.

Those who want to cultivate their body must first rectify their minds.

If you want to correct your heart, you must first be sincere.

If you want to be sincere, you must first know it.

Knowledge lies in investigating things.

When you know things, you will know them; if you know them, you will be sincere; if you are sincere, you will be upright; if you are upright, you will cultivate your body;

From the emperor to the common people, everything is based on self-cultivation.

It is wrong if it is originally chaotic but ends up being governed.

What is thick is thin, and what is thin is thick, which is not what it is.

This is called the foundation of knowledge, and this is called the ultimate in knowledge. 】

"Damn it, what the hell is this masterpiece? If you want to rule your country, you must first rectify your family. If you want to rectify your family, you must first rectify your body. If you want to rectify your body, you must first rectify your mind.

I'm convinced, my lord's article is too scary. "

"Brother Qiu, we seem to have seen a unique article." He Zidong said blankly.

Although his article is average, it can be seen how wonderful this article "The Way of University" is.

Qiu Xuanyu nodded, "A martial artist like me who hasn't read much is shocked."

Le Shibo was completely stunned when he read Han Chufan's article.

"Cultivation of one's character, management of one's family, and governance of the country. This article, like the words of the Great Dao, washes away my soul.

It turns out that our generation of scholars should do this, start with ourselves and manage a family well. "

"Master Pingbei Hou explained what a university is as soon as this article was published."

"[The Way of the University], Mr. Pingbeihou is about to become a god in the Great Xia literary world, even surpassing the sages."

“We are witnessing the birth of a legendary article.”

Such an article does not look like it could be written by people in this world, but more like it was written by ancient sages.

The scholars around him were completely crazy. This article [The Way of University] was like the sound of the great road, rushing into their souls.

[The Way of University] is engraved at the door of Northwest University and will remain forever.

This article quickly spread to the entire Yunzhou, and soon reached the imperial capital.

[The way of a university lies in being virtuous, being close to the people, and striving for perfection.

Knowing that there is stillness can lead to concentration; concentration can lead to tranquility; tranquility can lead to tranquility; tranquility can lead to worry; worry can lead to gain. .】

In the Hanlin Academy, Mr. Wei's hands trembled with excitement after reading this article.

"Old Mo, Old Huang, come and read this eternal article."

"What article can bear such a big name and be an eternal article?"

"That's right, Lao Wei, you're not awake, are you?"

Mr. Mo and Mr. Huang said disdainfully, even if the articles written by their teacher, Mr. Dongyang decades ago, a well-known literary giant in Daxia for nearly a hundred years, would not dare to call them eternal articles.

"Stop talking nonsense and come and see it."

Mr. Wei's hands were still shaking.

The two of them came up and took a few glances with a casual attitude.

But when they took the first look, their expressions instantly became serious.

"What the hell kind of article is this? It's so scary." The two of them were shocked.

【If you want to rule your country, you must first bring order to your family.

If you want to improve your family, you must first cultivate your body.

If you want to cultivate your body, you must first rectify your mind.If you want to correct your heart, you must first be sincere.

If you want to be sincere, you should know first. 】

“Studying things to gain knowledge, cultivating one’s moral character, and managing one’s family well and governing the country. This [Tao of the University] can be compared with the works of the sages and sages.”

"I said it was an eternal article, you believe it now." Mr. Wei said, stroking his beard.

"I believe it, I believe it. Such an article cannot be called too much." Mr. Mo's hands were shaking with excitement.

"By the way, Old Wei, who wrote this article? How could someone write such a famous article?" Huang asked.

"Who else in the contemporary literary world can write such an article?" Mr. Wei asked rhetorically.

Mr. Mo and Mr. Huang looked at each other and said in unison: "Marquis Pingbei?"

Mr. Wei nodded with a smile, "Of course."

Along with the spread of [The Way of the University], there was another piece of news.

Northwest University, founded by Han Chufan, will hold its first admissions examination.

Students admitted to Northwest University will be assigned to the official system of Northern Xinjiang after one year of study at the university.

This news caused a sensation no less than the article [The Way of University].

It is now the spring of the Great Summer Imperial Examination, and a large number of failed students can only go home to review and wait to compete again next year.

Han Chufan's enrollment at Northwest University is a good opportunity for them.

After passing the exam, you only need to study for one year before you can become an official in Northern Xinjiang. Although Northern Xinjiang is a bit remote, you can still be an official.

Juren like them really make a fortune every year for the quota of [-] Jinshi.

And even if you become a Jinshi, if you are a low-ranking top three Jinshi, you will have to wait in line for several years if you want to become a county magistrate in a remote place.

There are probably hundreds of candidates for county magistrates in Daxia now.

Some of the top three scholars at the bottom are unlucky and have no connections, so they will never be able to become officials in their lives.

The top two Jinshi did not have such concerns, but the admission rate of the top two Jinshi was too low.

According to the news from Northwest Army Town, this time more than 500 scholars will be admitted to Northwest University.

After one year of study, if you graduate successfully, you can work as an official in Northern Xinjiang.

Han Chufan set the study cycle at Northwest University at one year, but there was nothing he could do about it.

There is really a shortage of people in northern Xinjiang now, especially in the new official system, where there are a lot of gaps.

Han Chufan Northwest University's admissions order is very attractive to candidates from northern states.

Especially those old people who have been taking the exam for several years and have never graduated from high school.

As for the scholars in the northern states, they are even more eager to try. Many of them cannot win the imperial examination, and they have no hope of becoming officials in the future.

They heard that the things tested in Pingbeihou's exam were different from those in the imperial examination. These scholars wanted to try their luck even more.

"Have you heard? The Northwestern University founded by Pingbei Hou is recruiting students. If you pass the exam and graduate successfully, you can become an official?"

"Really or not, isn't it better than the Imperial College in the imperial capital? Not everyone who graduates from the Imperial College can become a high school scholar."

"It should be true. My friend told me personally."

"Even Brother Zhou has failed the imperial examination for three consecutive years. Now the imperial examination is almost monopolized by the southeastern states and the Imperial College.

It is too difficult for us northern students to go to high school. "

"Yeah, why don't we brothers go to Ping'an City in Northwest Army Town to try? Anyway, Yunzhou is not very far away. If we are lucky, we will be admitted."

“Go, follow a hero like Ping Beihou, and open up territory for our country and our human race, that’s what we should do.

Students from the three northern states of Yunzhou, Yanzhou, and Youzhou rushed to Ping'an City to prepare for the exams at Northwest University.

Even from the states in central and eastern Daxia, students rushed to Ping An City one after another.
