Chapter 154 The Atmosphere Of Ming Dynasty Has Changed! Scholars Don’T Study, But Go To Trial Cases!
Chapter 154 The atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty has changed! Scholars stopped studying and went to trial cases!
After Ye Xuan became the examiner of the imperial examination.
The culture of scholars in Ming Dynasty began to change.
This group of scholars learned astronomy, geography, arithmetic, went to rice fields to identify grains, and some even went to the county government office every day to see the magistrate resolve cases.
And today.
The scholars heard that the county government was holding a public trial today.
They swarmed to the county government office with pens and paper in hand.
The people watching the excitement were crowded to the outside.
County government.
The magistrate, wearing a black gauze hat and an official robe, sat on a high chair behind a three-foot dharma table on a high wooden platform.
The four treasures of the study - the Heling quiver - are placed on the table.
Behind it stands the sea water facing the screen, with blue waves rolling, the red sun rising, and the clouds rolling and relaxing.
There is a gold-lettered plaque hanging on the screen, with four sharp and magnificent characters written on it, "The mirror hangs high".
Two rows of government officials on both sides hold killing sticks.
"Ascending to the Hall!"
After the words fell, the Yamen servant quickly hit the ground with the killing stick in his hand, making a heavy muffled sound, and shouted:
"mighty---!"
The incomparable majestic momentum rushed towards the face.
The scholars and common people watching outside the Yamen were eye-opening.
"I didn't expect the yamen's open court interrogation to be so impressive!"
"Amazing!!"
The scholars watched carefully, holding pens and papers in their hands to record something.
The magistrate saw the scholars crowding outside the yamen. This group of scholars occupied the seats where the common people had been watching the excitement, and those common people were all left on the periphery.
The scholars' eyes were bright and they were saying something from time to time.
Amazing.
This is my first time watching an interrogation.
Words like "too exciting".
The corner of the magistrate's mouth twitched.
What's going on with these gentlemen?
Why are there always leisurely people coming to see him for interrogation during this time?
Shouldn't these scholars be concentrating on reading the Four Books and Five Classics in their study and preparing for the imperial examination?
The magistrate was puzzled.
I was complaining in my heart.
He felt that the scholars during this period were more gossipy than ordinary people. When he was interrogating, they would record something with pen and paper from time to time.
This frightened him for some time.
I was afraid that something would go wrong in my interrogation.
This group of scholars caught the loopholes and loopholes.
Then read his copy above.
The magistrate quickly calmed down, ignored this group of scholars, was stunned, and said:
"Who is in the hall!"
"Why!"
"Come quickly!"
In the hall, two farmers wearing coarse linen clothes were kneeling on the bluestones on the left and right sides.
Plaintiff's seat on the left.
The dock on the right.
"The common people Li Si, the common people want to sue Zhang San, this guy stole the common people's chicken! Sir, you have to make the decision for me, you must punish this guy severely!!"
"He's already stolen five or six of my chickens!"
"I didn't catch him before, but this time I finally caught him and took him over."
Zhang San, who had a bruised nose and swollen face, retorted loudly, his voice leaking.
"Don't accuse people unjustly!"
"I only stole two chickens from you!"
"I didn't steal the one before!"
"Sir, don't listen to this guy's nonsense. The chicken he had earlier was not stolen by the common people. The common people were wronged!"
The scholars looked at Li Si and then at Zhang San.
Recorded on paper.
Li Si and Zhang San quarreled.
Even start a fight.
boom!!!
Gavel slapped hard.
The magistrate raised his eyebrows and threatened:
"This is a courtroom! You can't act nonsense!"
"If you dare to mess around again, I will sentence you to disturbing the court and give you ten lashes each!"
The scholars watched carefully how the magistrate skillfully solved the case, how he sentenced him, etc.
It was an eye-opener for them.
"I didn't expect that there is so much knowledge involved in solving the case!"
"Although it is a trivial case, the magistrate handled it in an orderly manner, which is amazing."
The magistrate, who had concluded the case, twitched his eyelids when he heard the words of these scholars.
He turned around and left the courtroom, entering the bungalow at the back.
"What's going on with these gentlemen?"
"Why do they always come to watch my trial recently?"
The magistrate asked his subordinates.
He was surprised.
Why are the scholars of this year so weird?
They don't study the Four Books and Five Classics in the study.
I came all day long to watch him solve cases.
What's going on?
The subordinate said:
"Sir, these scholars came here to hear your decision because they want to pass the imperial examination."
Magistrate:??
He looked at his subordinates strangely.
He also came from the imperial examination.
What is the imperial examination like?
Could he not know?
Came to see him solve the case and passed the imperial examination?
What about the ghost?
Seeing the magistrate's questioning look, the subordinate smiled bitterly and said:
"Don't believe it."
"This is real."
"The examiner of this year's imperial examination, Ye Xuan, is a weirdo."
"Most of the questions he asked were not about the Four Books and Five Classics. They were about astronomy, geography, arithmetic, solving cases, etc. They were all folk arts.
Therefore, this group of scholars came to see you solve the case in the direction of Ye Xuan's question. "
"This is what I heard from my nephew. He also participated in this year's imperial examination."
"A few days ago, I heard that they went to the fields to watch the farmers farming and asked them to tell them how to distinguish grains.
...........
The magistrate's eyes widened when he heard this.
Such a strange thing happened!
He then thought about it and figured out why.
"Although this examiner is weird."
"However, these questions he took were not in the books. This is to let these scholars go deep into the people and sympathize with the people's sentiments.
"In this way, these scholars will definitely become officials who do practical things."
The magistrate nodded.
Feeling in my heart:
This year’s examiner, Ye Xuan, although strange, has great knowledge and talent.
In the past, scholars held books from sages and sages all day long and studied the teachings of Confucius and Mencius.
Only what is in the book.
Nothing will happen.
From time to time, a group of people would party.
What poetry meeting.
Appreciate the moon and compose a poem.
What can I say? This is the elegance of a literati.
Fuck this.
The county magistrate is someone who has been there.
He understood that these people were having a poetry meeting, admiring the moon and composing poems, and they were just having fun.
Wind, flowers, wine and moon.
Write poems and songs.
Pretend to be cool.
The whole house applauded.
This is simply not doing business properly.
Now the examiner named Ye Xuan has completely changed this group of scholars, making them care about folk arts and go deep into the grassroots to contact the people.
This is a good thing.
Brothel.
The girls and the madams, all dressed up in red and green, were dumbfounded when they looked at the empty and deserted brothel.
Where are people?
Where have people gone?
In the past, this group of scholars came from time to time to admire the flowers and compose poems, squandering their wealth generously and claiming to be romantic.
The brothels make a lot of money.
The name Pinjin Cave is not a given.
However, during this time, they did not see a scholar.
The madam bit her handkerchief, her face full of reluctance.
"Girls, if this continues, our brothel will close down."
"We definitely can't go on like this."
“We must take the initiative!”
"Girls, show your enthusiasm!"
"No matter what, we will let new scholars take advantage of us and enter our store!"
The girls in the brothel put in a lot of effort and enthusiasm, waving handkerchiefs full of powder at the door, twisting their thin waists as soft as water snakes, and making charming and seductive sounds.
"Sir, come on, be happy~"
"Sir, why haven't you come for so long? I miss you so much~"
The girls were looking forward to it.
However, only a few scholars came to support him.
They didn't know that in order to pass Ye Xuan's imperial examination, these scholars all went to yamen, fields and other grassroots schools to study.
There is no time for them to come to this pink land and live happily in the Golden Cave. .
