Chapter 190

How many things can a doctor in upstate manage?
The word doctor originated in the Spring and Autumn Period, and its original meaning is a person with expertise in learning.It has been hundreds of years since it appeared as an official position in the Qin Dynasty and spread to the Tang Dynasty.Since Wu Denian's rampant management of government schools, there have been many vacancies for doctorates in local state studies.It is even more difficult to find a doctor who can convince the public with both knowledge and talent.

When Luo Yan received the appointment letter from the Ministry of Officials, he thought about cursing after reading it.The reason is here.At this moment, his reputation is spreading among scholars, and several of his articles have indeed been praised by many people.

But everyone accepted his identity at the beginning.A scholar, Lu Deming's disciple.That's all.Now it is the most widely circulated one, and it is only the name of Luo Xiaoshu——this is the only name related to learning.The rest is about his incidents in front of Xuanwu Gate, Jingzhou City and Lantian County.

Luo Yan knew that when he arrived in Jinzhou, if he didn't show some skills, not only would he be underestimated.And Lu Deming and Li Shimin behind him will also be criticized.

With a wry smile, he said to Ah Quan beside him, "It's time to pack up and move."

Ah Quan touched his head, and muttered, "It's good to eat and drink with Mr. Lang, but it's not good to keep moving. You said that people who are officials are regarded as the emperor of the earth. Why did you come to Mr. Lang? Where are you going?" None for more than four months."

It's a good thing he didn't say this in front of other people, otherwise Ah Quan would be dead.Luo Yan scolded angrily: "Do you want to kill your dog? You are the only one who talks too much. Did you stay in the Hongwen Museum for more than four months?" This stuff is more real.

But he wasn't all wrong.It is true that I have changed too many officials this year.Moreover, the more officials they become, the bigger they become, and the more officials they become, the smaller they become.If I continue to be like that, I'm afraid I won't be popular anymore.

Although Ah Quan's mouth was a little broken, he still handled things quite neatly.In just half a day, they packed up their things.

Naturally, Luo Yan didn't bother to bring those bulky bags.Simply put some books and playthings in my collection, as well as many things I recorded, into boxes, and asked someone to send them back to Chang'an.As for himself and Ah Quan, they hit the horse and went straight to Jinzhou.

Unlike when he came here with great fanfare, Luo Yan didn't inform anyone when he left.Thinking about his current state of desperation, even if he was informed, he didn't know how many people would come to see him off by then.Simply put, ignore everyone, and leave quietly without taking a piece of roast lamb from Youzhou.

Jinzhou is thousands of miles away, and Luo Yan also took care of Ah Quan who was not very good at riding a horse along the way. It took the two of them a whole month to reach their destination.

Jinzhou is also an ancient city with a long history.There has been a city here since the Qing Dynasty, and it has been rebuilt several times after several wars in the past thousand years.Now guarding Chang'an, it is really an important military site.But don't be fooled by the importance of Jinzhou in the military. In fact, in the Guanzhong area, Jinzhou's education is also quite good.

Among other things, it was the first time in Wude that Wujinzhou had passed the scientific examination, and it could also be ranked in the Gyeonggi area.

Standing under the tall city wall of Jinzhou, Luo Yan looked up at the traces of the war that still remained on the city wall, and said with emotion: "The taste in this pass is good, it is majestic and majestic, but it contains poetry. If you come here without knowing the basics , I just thought there would be an extra eight-foot man holding an iron pole and singing Qin Opera."

Luo Yan just said it casually, and he didn't want passers-by to really listen to his words, and said with a smile: "This gentleman can talk, but he also expresses my Jinzhou demeanor in one word. Just say this, If you have time, let me treat you to a drink or two."

Luo Yan was taken aback by this sudden invitation, looked at the still early sky, and said with a smile: "Haha. It's rare that someone invites you to drink. If I refuse, wouldn't it be a bit out of place?" Feeling the boldness of the man in Guanzhong, Luo Yan Yan bowed his hands to the man in front of him who was dressed in linen all his life and had a majestic appearance and a refined appearance.

"Luo Yan from Luzhou, you come here to make a living as a petty official. I don't know what your name is?"

Hearing Luo Yan's self-introduction, this person's eyes lit up, and asked: "That Luo Yan who Yunwen Yunwu, who changed officials three times a year?" It's getting worse and worse. What does it mean to change officials three times a year and still allow Wen Yunwu.

But they must be praising him, Luo Yan could only say with a wry smile: "Yun Wen Yun Wu can't be said, it's true that the official has been changed three times a year. But this official is getting smaller and smaller, even I am embarrassed to say gone."

The elegant man smiled: "Young Lord, you are just joking. We have never been out of Jinzhou in Yuju Guanzhong, and we have heard of some of your deeds. If it weren't for the conclusions in the market, we would have thought that you, Mr. It’s my son from Guanzhong. I’ve seen some of these gentlemen from Jiangnan, so there’s nothing to talk about in terms of literary talent, but in terms of spirit, Mr. Xiao Lang is not at all like the people from Jiangnan.”

These words made Luo Yan blush a little.

Seeing that Luo Yan stopped talking, the man said with a smile: "It seems that Mr. Xiao just arrived in Jinzhou. Since this is the case, I just want to treat you to a drink. I know an inn in the city, and it is just right for Mr. Lang to stay."

After speaking, he took the rein from Luo Yan's hand, pulled the horse by himself, and led Luo Yan and Ah Quan into the city.

It is true that Jinzhou is an upper state, but in terms of prosperity, it is slightly inferior to Chang'an, the core of the Tang Dynasty, and Youzhou, an important town in the North.Now that I entered the city, the streets in the city were not too crowded.Soon this person brought Luo Yan to an inn, and asked the staff to deliver Luo Yan's and Aquan's horses to the stable, and the person greeted Luo Yan and Ah Quan to go inside.

The first floor of the inn also sells food and beverages, and there are quite a few people at the moment.The elegant man went in and sang loudly: "One more meal from the previous visit, and two jars of Xinfeng wine." Apparently, although this person looked not well dressed, he was also a frequent visitor to this inn.

After sitting down, the man introduced himself: "I'm Qin Ren'an, and I'm still white now. I was surprised just now, and forgot to report my name to the gentleman."

Luo Yan laughed when he heard that, this temperament is really bold, not at all pretentious.

"What's the matter, I like your brother's temperament quite a lot. Even speaking, it's easier than some people." After boasting, Qin Ren'an asked: "I heard from you at that time, Mr. Jinzhou is an official, I don't know what kind of official he is, so let me congratulate him."

"I'm ashamed to say this, Ph.D. of Jinzhou State Science. It's a little bit of trying to gain fame." Speaking of this, Luo Yan really felt a little guilty.But since people asked, I couldn't help but say it.

"Doctor of state studies?" Qin Ren'an was so surprised that he almost gasped.But after being surprised, I thought about it carefully, and said: "I have also read Dr. Luo's article, and it is more than enough to be a Ph.D. in Jinzhou. But now, a Ph.D. in Jinzhou does not only require talent."

Qin Ren'an obviously knew something, and the implication was that Luo Yan had to be careful.

"Oh, Brother Qin, if you have anything to say, you might as well just say it. Anyway, I, a foreigner, probably don't know what you said." Luo Yan really wanted to know why Qin Ren'an said that.

"Lang Jun, you don't know. Now there are three scholars in this state school, who are known as the three great talents of Jinzhou. They are talented and learned, and their family backgrounds are also very powerful. As early as half a year ago, someone boasted that these three people would take over this year. The first place in the scientific examination." Sighing, Qin Ren'an continued: "Thus, if you don't have a certain prestige, it may be difficult to convince these people."

He pointed out Luo Yan's difficulties in one word.

Hearing what Qin Ren'an said, Luo Yan couldn't help but think highly of him.With a wry smile, he said, "If I could choose, I wouldn't want to be this official. It's just that the king's order is hard to break, so I can only take one step at a time."

"Why should you be discouraged, Mr. Lang. It seems that Mr. Lang has not officially taken office. I have a good idea, and I must be able to help Mr. Lang." Waiting for the waiter to bring the wine and dishes, Qin Ren'an filled the bowl in front of Luo Yan Wine, said mysteriously.

This aroused Luo Yan's interest, and he couldn't help asking: "Oh? I don't know what brother Qin's intention is?"

"Your Majesty doesn't know yet. Every year when Jinzhou sends scholars to Beijing for scientific examinations, there will be a literary meeting. According to the usual practice, the few people who came to Beijing to rush for the examination will be famous. A few people suppressed it. At that time, the prestige of Mr. Lang will naturally spread throughout Jinzhou. It’s no wonder that those who study hard in the state are not convinced.”

Qin Ren'an's idea was not very good, but it was directly violent.When Luo Yan heard this, he couldn't help laughing: "Brother Qin's method, I'm afraid it will convince those scholars, and I will also offend many people."

"Hey, that's all I'm saying, don't take it seriously, come, drink first."

But to Qin Ren'an's surprise, Luo Yan said next, "Just do what Brother Qin said."
