The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 1482 Jing’an Enrollment

Many students sighed when they saw Fang Yun and the dean going to observe Jingzhai.

"I wanted to watch a good show, but who knew I wouldn't be able to watch it."

"Just one test is not enough. You should take it twice more."

"Yeah, how can one exam count?"

"You are shameless, but the dean is shameless. If there is no evidence to prove that Zhang Longxiang is a reverse species, then he is not a reverse species. Taking the exam once is considered a embarrassment. If he takes the exam continuously, it would be too mean."

"If we accept students in normal times, the dean will usually not care, but for students like this who are transferred to the academy, the dean will not be so easy to talk to. Three years ago, the grandson of Duke Yu Guo had a naughty temperament and wanted to study in Zhurong Academy. But he was declined by the dean. Yu Guogong was very dissatisfied, and some people even said that the dean's literary courage would be shattered, but three years later, the dean was unscathed."

"Come on, let's go and observe a quiet fast, maybe we can see a good show!"

Many students went to Shoujingzhai again and watched Fang Yun and his son follow Ma Zhilong into the house.

Two quarters of an hour later, the door opened and Fang Yun left alone.

"Ah? Is this the end? If Zhang Jing'an stays inside, doesn't that mean he can study at Zhu Rong Academy?"

"I don't think so. The dean should be taking the exam now, Zhang Jing'an!"

"Then let's wait!"

In the quiet room, Ma Zhilong, the dean of Zhurong Academy, sat behind the desk and looked at Zhang Jing'an standing in front of him.

Zhang Jing'an stood there neither arrogantly nor humblely, trying his best to control his emotions.

"I have heard a little bit about you." Ma Zhilong said.

Zhang Jing'an blushed and said: "The student was negligent in discipline and did not know what the world is. After his father returned, he taught him strictly. Only then did the student repent and change his past mistakes. The student will not make the same mistakes in the past."

Ma Zhilong said: "In the past few months, people in Jingzhou City have occasionally talked about your father and son, saying that you father and son went to serve as soldiers, then as pavilion chiefs, and finally ended up transporting excrement, which was unseemly. If the King of Chu hadn't suppressed it, the document of impeachment of the Marquis of Zhujiang would have been I'm afraid they can fill up a room. It's not like it hasn't happened before."

A look of shame appeared on Zhang Jing'an's face and he said: "Student is ashamed. All the things that happened before were all done by my father to educate my useless son. After thinking about it, I owe my father a lot."

"As expected, the Marquis of Zhujiang will not be aimless, as I suspected before. However, I don't know the specific details. Can you tell me one by one from beginning to end?" Ma Zhilong said.

Zhang Jing'an hesitated for a few seconds and said, "This is a private matter between my father and son. If the dean really wants to know, the students can't tell."

Ma Zhilong smiled and said: "Not only am I curious, but I also want to determine whether you are eligible for admission. After all, I believe that you are a rotten tree and cannot study in Zhurong Academy. You must give me a reason to accept you and let me know that you are Why the change was made and whether it was effective.”

Zhang Jing'an nodded and said: "Then students will come one by one. Students were bullied many times in school. Whether it was classmates, teachers or older students, they would insult me ​​in various ways, so that I became tired of studying. I hate school very much...or I am afraid of going to school. And...as you know, our family situation is very complicated. I only met my father for the first time a few months ago, so I feel extremely resentful towards him. As for me being very presumptuous when we first met..."

Next, Zhang Jing'an told the detailed story of Fang Yun going to Gou's house to seize the Pearl River Army flag, going to the military camp to serve as a soldier, becoming a pavilion chief, and going to work. Finally, he talked about the long talk between father and son in the study room on a snowy night in the early morning of that day.

After Zhang Jing'an finished speaking, he looked at Ma Zhilong, only to find that Ma Zhilong was deep in thought and remained silent for a long time.

After a while, Ma Zhilong suddenly sighed and said: "I'm so lucky to have a father like this! If I had been reminded by Long Xiang's words when I was a child, I would have become a great scholar early."

Zhang Jing'an secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he could enter Zhurong Academy to study.

Ma Zhilong said: "I will write a novel about your father and son and include it as a must-read article for students of Zhurong Academy. After writing, I will pass the letter to Mr. Zhang and ask him to correct it."

Zhang Jing'an nodded, realizing that he had no right to comment.

"From today on, you will live in Zhurong Academy. Zhang Houye said that if you are not a child, you will always stay here. Just wait a moment, I will find someone to arrange your accommodation." Ma Zhilong said.

"Thank you, Mr. Ma!" Zhang Jing'an bowed to express his thanks.

"If you want to thank me, just thank your father..." Ma Zhilong looked out the window.

After Fang Yun returned to Zhang Mansion, his life returned to peace, and he lived a particularly free life without his son.

When he was young, the King of Chu led hundreds of civil and military officials to pay homage to Confucius. Fang Yun participated and retrieved the official seal belonging to the "Marquis of Pearl River".

After receiving the official seal of the Marquis of Zhujiang, Zhang Longxiang's former friends began to contact him. However, only half of the generals in the Zhujiang Army sent letters of congratulations, and the other half seemed completely unaware of this matter.

At that time, Zhang Longxiang also had some friends from other countries. Those people did not shy away from suspicion and congratulated him one after another.

There were also many literary societies in the Confucian and Saint literary circles, but no one invited Fang Yun.

Fang Yun also enjoyed his leisure time, constantly learning about the literary world of Confucius and Saints, and at the same time preparing to become a bachelor.

On the fifth day of the first lunar month, before the atmosphere of the New Year had cooled down, the King of Chu issued a royal order, ordering the "Lumenhou" located in the north of Chu State to lead 100,000 Lumen Army and 50,000 Jingnan Army soldiers to go south together with Zhujianghou Zhang Longxiang. Joined forces with the Qishan Army and the Zhujiang Army to recapture Lianshan Pass.

After Fang Yun received the king's order, he immediately checked the map of Kong Shengwen's world.

On the south bank of the Pearl River, there was originally a province, but most of it was occupied by the monsters, leaving only two cities and three passes, and the Pearl River Army and the Qishan Army guarded the two cities respectively.

Zhucheng, guarded by the Pearl River Army, is in the east, and Hefengcheng, guarded by the Qishan Army, is in the west. Further south, there are three passes, two of which belong to the Qishan Army and one to the Pearl River Army.

And ten years ago, the Pearl River Army was responsible for two passes.

Finally, Fang Yun's eyes fell on Lianshan Pass, which had long been occupied by the barbarians.

Lianshan Pass is located in the heart of the barbarians. If you want to break through Lianshan Pass, it is equivalent to going to war with five large barbarian tribes, facing five barbarian kings and dozens of barbarian marquises.

Only the "Lumen", "Qishan" and "Pearl River" armies attacked Lianshan Pass, and the Lumen Army only had half of its troops participating in the battle. At the same time, only Lumen Marquis and Qishan Marquis were university scholars, equivalent to barbarian kings, and the strongest of the others was only Hanlin, equivalent to monster marquis.

The three armies had a total of 550,000 people, which was more than the 300,000 barbarians. However, for the human race, it would take three times as many soldiers as the barbarians to remain undefeated. In addition, with two university scholars against five barbarian kings, the possibility of human victory was extremely small.

However, Fang Yun also knew that Chu could not afford too many troops, because in addition to guarding against monsters and barbarians in other places and other countries, Chu also had to send troops to reinforce Liangjie Mountain, and its troops were stretched to the limit.

This time, Chu sent troops to solve the problem once and for all and completely solve the five tribes, so as not to have a fire in the backyard during the battle of Liangjie Mountain.
