"That's not necessary. I have some connections with the White Egret Academy. I can ask them to help with the printing... um..."
Li Qingcha paused slightly when he was halfway through his words.
The literacy rate in ancient times was shockingly low, making it impossible to conduct a questionnaire survey.
However, asking the Ministry of Rites to borrow an official...
"no way."
Ji Gaoyun was stunned.
"What's impossible?"
"The people are like fish and the officials are like hawks. You might as well expect the sun to rise in the west as you expect the officials to poll the people, because the people will only say 'ah, right, right,' and the final result will definitely be 100%."
"Well……"
“This matter… hehe…”
"My Lord, what have you thought of?"
"I just figured out some simple truths."
Li Qingcha suddenly realized.
I finally understand why non-governmental organizations are more authoritative than official ones when it comes to polls.
She hesitated for a moment.
"Well, I'll ask the students from the White Egret Academy for help. They have a good reputation."
Ji Gaoyun did not object.
It seems that this is the only thing we can do.
Li Qingcha sat down and wrote a few questions on the pencil he carried with him. He was not satisfied with it afterwards, so he kept revising it. After about half an hour, he finally decided on the final draft.
Afterwards, she put it away and said to Ji Gaoyun, "I'm going to the Egret Academy and won't be back today."
Ji Gaoyun: ???
He looked at the sky outside and was confused.
"Sir, it's only halfway through the morning hour."
"I know."
"This……"
"Master Ji, the scholars in the Egret Academy are very careful about their reputation. I don't know how much time I will have to spend to persuade them. I might even have to entertain them until the evening."
"Didn't you just say that you have some connections with Bailu Academy?"
"Did I say that?"
"..."
Seeing that Li Qingcha was blatantly trying to slack off, Ji Gaoyun had no way to stop him.
There is no way, who asked Li Qingcha to be the deputy seal?
The first level of officialdom crushes people to death.
Moreover, Ji Gaoyun would not impeach Li Qingcha because the Three Sects’ Discussion was about to begin and he was pointing his finger at Li Qingcha to take the blame.
He said helplessly: "My Lord, please go now. Don't tire yourself out with socializing."
Li Qingcha nodded, with a teachable expression on his face.
She left the Daoluosi and headed for the academy.
In the long future, Bailu Academy will remain the same.
The students recited in unison, and the sounds of wind, rain, and reading were all pleasant to the ears.
The only difference was that near the gate, there stood a stele with a text that had never been seen before, engraved with bold and vigorous characters:
Establish your mind for heaven and earth,
To establish a destiny for the people,
To carry on the unique learning to the saints,
Create peace for all generations.
This stele should be a rubbing of the one in the Forest of Steles.
Li Qingcha: ￣□￣｜｜
This is so damn embarrassing.
She walked forward.
The guard at the gate was stunned when he saw it, then he came forward happily.
"Mr. Siwei, you are finally here!"
Afterwards, he turned around and shouted towards the Egret Academy: "Mr. Siwei has come to our academy! Everyone, come and see!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the sound of reading in the academy suddenly became quiet.
Then came the noisy footsteps.
Li Qingcha's eyes widened in fear as she watched a bunch of Qingshan students rush out and surround her.
"There's something I don't understand about logic!"
"Arithmetic issues are important. Mr. Siwei said that arithmetic is 'raising the things of heaven and earth'."
"Then the study of the nature of things is equally important!"
……
All the people are talking at once.
There was a fanatical expression on his face.
Xiang Nanyu had not planned to show up, but when he saw Li Qingcha was surrounded, he knew that if something unexpected happened, he might not be able to find it immediately, so he stood beside Li Qingcha.
"You are quite popular in the capital~"
"Gu..."
Li Qingcha could only swallow his saliva.
Fortunately, someone separated the crowd.
"Everyone spread out!"
The one who spoke was Fang Jingwu.
He squeezed in and said, "Mr. Li, we finally meet again. Not only the students, but also the gentlemen have questions to ask you."
Li Qingcha was surprised.
"Even the gentlemen in the academy have read "Winter Vacation Garden"?"
"It turns out that the book is called 'Han Jia Yuan Di', which is quite vivid. It contains many subjects that our Han people have never seen before. The meaning of the book is source and enlightenment, which is very appropriate."
"..."
Li Qingcha was speechless.
Speechless.
Fang Jingwu continued, "You know the popular saying in the academy now, 'To seek knowledge, one should read the Four Weis, and to practice writing, one should appreciate Lanling'."
Li Qingcha: ￣□￣｜｜
The "Lanling" mentioned by the other party must be a pen name——
Mr. Lanling.
So many people have a copy of "Jin Mei Ping" and "Winter Vacation Garden", two completely different works.
If they knew that Mr. Siwei = Mr. Lanling,
hiss……
shame!
What a shame!
Chapter 287 Mr. Siwei is truly a great talent of the time!
Fang Jingwu waved everyone away.
"Mr. Siwei, please come with me to see the headmaster. He heard yesterday that you returned to Beijing and has been wanting to see you."
Li Qingcha felt embarrassed when he kept calling him "you".
She was slightly embarrassed.
"Brother Fang, I'm here for the Daolu Division, and I want to ask for your help."
Daoluosi?
When Fang Jingwu heard the name of this office, he was obviously stunned.
Suddenly, he showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, probably remembering what the Dao Lu Si was.
He looked surprised and said, "Mr. Siwei, why are you so self-deprecating? No one goes to this Daolu Division. Why are you...ah..."
puff!
Li Qingcha was bleeding and could only hold on.
"Brother Fang, I am responsible for your salary and I have to share your worries. I, Li Siwei... No, although I, Li Qingcha, have not read the Four Books and Five Classics, I also understand the great principles. How can I shirk my responsibilities just because the Daolusi is a lowly government office?"
He stood tall and straight as he spoke, with an upright demeanor.
Fang Jingwu couldn't help but ponder.
Li Qingcha was extremely smart, and perhaps he was loyal to the emperor and the country, but that was not the main factor.
Thinking of the upcoming discussion among the three sects, he could not help but understand.
"It seems that with the support of great talents like Mr. Siwei, the status of the Daolu Division will continue to rise. In the future, all the Taoist monks in the world will come from your school. This is a blessing for the Taoist sect."
Li Qingcha: “…”
Fishing, ×
Develop the Daolu Division from scratch and suppress the three sects.
An unimagined path?
Li Qingcha: "So this is what I thought..."
She cupped her hands.
"Brother Fang, you're overthinking it. I just... uh... don't have any good options."
Fang Jingwu misunderstood what she said.
"Indeed, if Mr. Siwei studied hard, he would definitely pass the imperial examinations and be able to choose between the Hanlin Academy and the Imperial Censorate at will. It's a pity... Alas... It's difficult to gain a foothold in the officialdom without taking the imperial examinations."
Here comes the topic again,
Fang Jingwu felt a little emotional and secretly sighed at the importance of choice.
With Li Qingcha's talent, if he read a little bit of the Four Books and Five Classics, it would be very easy for him to become an official. At the very least, he could write high-quality novels like Mr. Lanling.
Now, they can only go to government offices like Daolusi.
pity.
He sighed,
"Mr. Siwei, follow me."
Several people walked towards the direction of the Forest of Steles, turned before going up the mountain, and entered the office area of the academy.
After turning seven or eight times, we arrived in front of a big house.
There are three characters on the plaque under the eaves:
