Chapter 1160 Take the Prince to the brothel
Just after seeing off the angel, Prince Chengqian is here.
"I heard that the teacher stayed behind in Hanjing and was the Minister of Administration. I was so happy that I couldn't sit still." The fourteen-year-old Cheng Qian was about the same height as Li Chao, and his mouth also had fluff and his voice changed. He had been exercising for several years, but his body was very strong, not as tall and thin as an ordinary boy of the same age.
The prince looked like a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, not a teenager.
Li Chao called him to sit down casually.
"I heard that after the King of Qin left the house, he would stay in the palace every few days?" Li Chao asked with a smile.
Under pressure from the prince and ministers, Li Shimin finally asked Li Tai and Li You to leave the palace early. Li Shimin gave his two sons a big mansion in the inner city. The three princes who were already married, Li Ke, Li Tai and Li You all lived on the same street, which was only a street different from Li Chao's mansion.
Cheng Qian nodded. The fat ball brother was very good at attracting favors. Although he was out of the box, he ran into the palace every few days, and sometimes he stayed in the palace for a few days before coming out.
"You don't have to care too much about this, after all, he is still young now. But in two years, the ministers will not allow him to do this again. If you don't have to come forward, many ministers will impeach the King of Qin."
A cheerful footsteps came outside the door, and a group of little guys ran in.
"Come here to pay homage to His Highness the Crown Prince!"
Those who came in were Li Chao's children, including Li Jing's eldest son, Li Hui's second son, Li Gui's third son, and Xia Hua's eldest daughter, who are now eight years old. The older children are also six or seven years old, while the younger ones are still breastfeeding.
The Li family's children were relatively close when they were young, and there was no situation in which the legitimate sons looked down on the illegitimate sons in other wealthy families. Under Li Chao's education, their brothers and sisters fell in love with each other very much.
Only then did a group of children realize that the Prince had come down and quickly greeted him.
Li Jing and Li Hui even turned around and smiled at his sister Xia Huaniang. Xia Hua blushed when she saw the prince, and then heard her brothers teasing her, her face turned even more red.
Li Chao called Xia Hua over and pulled her into her arms.
"Your prince brother is here, why don't you treat him?"
Xia Hua then came to the prince and bowed her body to salute.
The little girl is only eight years old, but she is sweet and cute. Her hair is black, her skin is white and greasy, and her eyes are very lively.
This girl Li Chao likes the most and thinks she is smart, lively and cute.
Cheng Qian smiled at his future wife, who was very generous. After all, he was already fourteen and Xia Hua was only eight years old. He felt that he was an adult, and Xia Hua was just a child. Although he had long understood that this was his future wife, he had no intention of resisting, but he really had no other thoughts.
After talking, Xia Hua ran away. The little girl also accused her of marrying the prince in the future. When she saw the prince's brother sitting there, she was always embarrassed and completely lost her usual cleverness.
Li Jing and the boys liked the prince's brother-in-law very much, and they chatted around the prince, but in the end Li Chao drove them away.
"I feel that time passes so fast." Cheng Qian couldn't help but look at his brother-in-law.
Li Chao laughed, "You are only fourteen years old, but you are like a seventy-eighty-eighty-old man."
"I'm an adult!" Cheng Qian insisted.
"Do you have hair?" Li Chao asked with a smile.
The prince had a tampered with his neck, "It's long gone, do you want to see it?"
"Well, you boy is a bit as shameless as I was back then. Come on, let me see."
Now the prince was immediately scared and wanted to run away.
"Don't leave, I'll take you to see something good later."
"What?" Cheng Qian grabbed the belt, still with a warning in his heart. His Royal Highness, you can't really let the Grand Master take off his pants and look at the bird's feathers.
"Sit down first, why are you anxious? Didn't you say you have grown up? Then of course I, the teacher, have to open your eyes and see the world."
Li Chao rang the bell on the table, and a maid came immediately.
"Change the pot of tea, and call Lai Shiyilang, Lai Shierlang, Pei Erlang and Song Dalang."
After a while, four young people came in.
The brothers came forward to salute, "Greetings to the Crown Prince, and seeing the righteous brother."
"Pei Er pays homage to His Highness the Crown Prince and to the teacher."
"Song Qingshu pays homage to Your Highness and to Teacher."
The four of them called Li Chao different names. The Lai brothers were the youngest son of Duke Rong of the previous dynasty, Lai Hu'er. Later, Qin Qiong accepted as his adopted son and sent him to Li Chao to study. Therefore, they called Li Chao's brother, not a teacher. Pei Xingjian was the posthumous son of Pei Renji's previous dynasty. At that time, Luo Shixin had a very good relationship with Pei Renji's eldest son Pei Xingyan. After Pei Renji's death, he found Madam Pei Renji and accepted Pei Xingjian as his adopted son. He also sent him to Li Chao to study, but he called Teacher Li Chao.
The 11th Lang Lai Heng is eighteen years old this year, the 12th Lang Lai Ji is seventeenth, and Pei Xingjian is fourteenth.
Song Qingshu, a student, is the oldest here, but he is the last among the brothers and brothers who are studying literature.
The brothers and Pei Er used to study at the Li family in Bashang with Chengqian, so they are not unfamiliar with it. On the contrary, although Song Qingshu has been in Beijing for several years and is no longer the southern barbarian in Jiaozhou back then, he still couldn't help but feel nervous when he saw the prince.
Cheng Qian smiled and greeted several fellow brothers.
"I'm going to get a try soon, what are you doing?"
"This time I will definitely win the Jinshi for a high school student." Pei Xingjian and others were the youngest, but they were the most confident. They took the county examination in the fourth year of Zhenguan and passed the scholar. In the fifth year of Zhenguan, they passed the juren again.
However, during the six-year Zhenguan exam competition, Li Chao did not let them participate, saying that they were too young and asked them to read a few more years.
Then next year, the ninth year of Zhenguan, the second imperial examination competition, Li Chao finally agreed to their fate.
This autumn, Song Qingshu also left the exam and was a high school juren.
Now the four disciples in front of Li Chao all have the reputation of Juren.
This was taken by tens of thousands of scholars across the country, and they all depended on real information. Today's imperial examinations are not easy to pass the paper, and no matter whether they are from a family or a family, they are not easy to pass.
"So confident?" Cheng Qian asked with a smile.
Li Chao said to the prince, "They have studied hard for many years, and studying with me is not a dead end. They are indeed a bit knowledgeable. The imperial examination is not very difficult now."
There were hundreds of thousands of people in the county examination for one subject, and only about 200,000 people who were qualified to participate in the county examination were qualified. After three rounds of county examinations and prefecture examinations, only about 20,000 were admitted, and the admission rate was almost 10%. In more than 1,000 counties across the country, the average number of people in one county was less than 20.
The admission rate for provincial examinations is even lower, less than 5%.
Moreover, not all scholars can take the provincial examination, and they must first take the provincial examination and the qualification examination for the provincial examination. The number of candidates in each province of the provincial examination is limited every year. No matter how many people take the provincial examination, they can only admit the specified amount and let them take the provincial examination.
After two imperial examinations, the Tang Dynasty had nearly 100,000 scholars.
But this year, there are only 50,000 places in the provincial examinations, and half of the scholars were directly under the provincial examination qualification examination.
The final admission rate of these 50,000 scholars who participated in the provincial examination was only 10%, and only 5,000 juren were admitted in all walks of life across the country.
It is just as difficult to get a Jinshi exam for the Juren. There are nearly 10,000 people admitted to the two subjects, but this year the national imperial examination for the Jinshi exam is still 500.
The quota for the final exam is only 5,000, so half of the final exam must be removed before the final exam.
Only one-tenth of the five thousand people who took the exam were admitted.
For the court, the quota of scholars and juren is relatively relaxed, and the number of admissions is large. After all, as long as you do not get the title of Jinshi, neither scholars nor juren have any practical effect.
Scholars and Juren will not have privileges such as tax exemption and service. At most, they will not kneel when they see officials. They will be free of tuition when studying in school and will be given some food. There is another advantage of scholars and Juren, which is that it will be easier if they become teachers or become officials in the yamen.
Now there is a huge scholar, juren and jinshi class, which is completely intentionally guided by the court. A huge scholar class has emerged. Even if the scholars who have been taken from the imperial examination fail to pass the imperial examination, the court can select people from it and serve as officials in the government, especially at the grassroots level in the local area, which is extremely short of staff and ordinary people are unwilling to do it.
If some local clerks were appointed as the past, they would be in danger of being undermined by them. Therefore, now, with this huge scholar-in-law class who was given the imperial examination, they would be used as support for clerks in the yamen.
The court did not restrict the scholars who were officials from continuing the imperial examinations.
Now after the two provincial examinations, there are nearly 10,000 Juren nationwide. It can be said that Juren is not valuable anymore. The most valuable one is Jinshi. No matter how many scholars are admitted every year, there are only 500 people in one Jinshi exam.
This also greatly stimulates scholars. If you want to take the exam, you can get the Jinshi, and only Jinshi is valuable. Scholars can only start with minor officials. If they are high school Jinshi, they will be able to start with minor officials after a year of studying in the Imperial College.
One is an official and the other is an official, and the difference is still huge.
Li Chao's four juren students are very young. In fact, Li Chao thinks it is not too late for them to study for a few more years to get a Jinshi, but even a few guys can't hold back.
They are all ready to take the high school entrance exam next year.
"Your Highness is about to stay in the prison state, and all four of you will attend the meeting to take the Jinshi exam. They all think they are adults, but I tell you that you will never be considered adults without going through one thing. Let's go, I will take you through this level today!"
Cheng Qian seemed to understand it all at once, and his face was a little unnatural.
The brothers of Lai reacted slowly and didn't understand what they meant yet.
Pei Er is the youngest but the most terrifying, and he understands it all at once.
"Teacher, do you really want to take us there?"
