Outside Qingzhou City, Taihe Village.

Hundreds of villagers talked about it after reading the reporter's newspaper.

"This group of corrupt scholars is so hateful. Our lives have only been stable for a few years, and they are just struggling."

"Yes, if it weren't for Your Highness's government orders, we would never have been able to make these corrupt scholars and evil words confuse the public and make your Highness believe their words."

"Yes, drive all these people out of the ban and let them go to other places to harm others. Xie Ziyun's home is in our village. Let's ask his parents together how they raised such an ungrateful thing. If His Highness hadn't returned the land of the rich family to their Xie family, where would Xie Ziyun get the money to study? Let's go!"

“…”

The villagers said everything, and the more they said, the more excited they became.

The leading people were the captain of the village. As soon as he waved his hand, the people of Taihe Village followed them to Xie's house.

Xie Ziyun, who was beaten to death yesterday, was sent back to the Xie family. Today, it was because of taking care of his son that Xie Dongyi did not go to listen to the newspaper today.

While he was cursing the hitter, the villagers rushed into his house angrily.

"Xie Dongyi, take your son out of the ban. There is no such shameful family in our village." A villager said angrily.

"That's right, if people from other villages know that Xie Ziming is from our village, they don't know how to point at our village and scold us, it would be too embarrassing."

"It's not just shame, it's called ungratefulness. I'm just eating the King of Qi's food and rebelling against the King of Qi. Bah, I really can't stand it anymore."

“…”

Xie Dongyi was stunned by a slander. He shouted, "What are you all talking about? Why don't I understand? My son was beaten and injured and you just don't sympathize with him. Why do you still humiliate him like this? Do you really think I am easy to bully?"

"Bah, it's a pity that no one lets you beat him to death." A villager shouted.

Xie Dongyi's face suddenly turned red. Xie Ziyun was the pride of their whole family. Just last year, he met many high-ranking officials in Chang'an. This was his money he boasted about. Now that the villagers said this, he naturally became angry and picked up the hoe on the side and was about to hit someone. "Li Er, try another word."

At this time, a villager reported it and shouted, "Xie Dongyi didn't go to listen to the newspaper this morning. Your son's current name is in the newspaper. He dared to bring some Confucian scholars to the government office to make trouble, openly oppose His Highness, and also asked His Highness to abolish the Bowen Academy and restore the system of the fiefdom before."

Upon hearing this, Xie Dongyi was stunned. He said in disbelief: "You are talking nonsense, you are jealous of my son, and he can't do this!"

"What are you lying to do? The reporter is still at the village entrance. If you don't believe me, go and ask him." A villager said.

Xie Dongyi's expression was cruising, and finally he decided to understand. He threw down his hoe and ran to the center of the village. After a while, he walked back like a wood carving.

"We didn't lie to you, aren't we?" The village captain sighed. Seeing Xie Dongyi's appearance, he obviously didn't know what his son was thinking all day long.

Sitting on the ground, Xie Dongyi burst into tears, "You turtle son, I get up early and go to the fields to farm for you to study. If you don't study carefully, you are humiliating Your Highness so much. If you don't have your Highness, can you continue to study? Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo w

Xie Dongyi cried sadly. The angry villagers were also a little unbearable. One of the villagers persuaded him: "Xie Dongyi, you...you should do it yourself, but our village can't tolerate him anymore. His ability is too great. We don't want to be implicated one day."

Hearing this, Xie Dongyi's face suddenly turned ashamed. Looking at his second son, third son and young daughter, he made a decision in his heart. He said, "I beg everyone to let him recover from the injury first, and then I will cut off the father-son relationship with him and let him leave the brigade. From then on, I will not care whether he will be successful or starve to the side of the road."

The villagers all fell silent when they heard this, and they looked at each other and left one after another.

After everyone left, Xie Dongyi returned to the house. At this time, Xie Ziyun was lying on the bed. Although he was beaten by many people, the beaters were left with their hands, and the injuries on their bodies were not too serious.

Looking at Xie Ziyun who had woken up, Xie Dongyi said, "You have heard everything outside. You can leave after your injury is healed. The villagers cannot tolerate ungrateful people, and our Xie family cannot tolerate ungrateful people."

Xie Ziyun was filled with anger in his fearful eyes, and he said, "Dad, this is not my fault. I have been studying for so many years, but I have no qualifications to enter the officialdom in the ban. Why? After all, King Qi is just a foolish king. He looks down on us poor children at all and does not give us a chance."

"Nonsense!" Xie Dongyi said angrily: "All students from Bowen Academy are qualified to take the exam. Why didn't you go to Bowen Academy? Isn't it because the chief examiner of the Chang'an imperial examination was Cui Hao, who was afraid that he would be involved in the relationship with Bowen Academy and could not enter the Chang'an officialdom? Aren't you and those scholars who claim to be Confucian scholars all the same? Do you look down on officials from the founding state?"

Xie Ziyun was stunned. He opened his mouth, but he couldn't even say a word.

No one knows his son as good as his father. For Xie Dongyi, whether he is a state or an official in the court, this is a way, but now Xie Ziyun's behavior has touched the bottom line in his heart.

Nowadays, no one in the village knows that to support King Qi can protect the good life now. They have seen refugees from Jizhou. The miserable appearance makes them still remember them fresh. They do not want to be as miserable as those refugees.

After pausing, he said, "The county town has opened a Gongshu. The county government said that if you have children at home, you can go to Gongshu to study. After you finish studying, you can take the Bowen Academy. After studying at the Bowen Academy, you will be the pillar of the country. Dad is going to let your second and third brothers study."

"Dad, my second and third brothers are both going to study. Do you have so much money to pay for?" Xie Ziyun argued.

"Who doesn't want money?" Xie Dongyi sighed, "Your Highness, you don't want to serve like this. Why are you?"

When Xie Ziyun heard this, he immediately fell into silence.

While he was thinking, the Confucian scholars who followed him in the downtown area also encountered similar situations. Many of them were just making trouble. After learning about the benefits and harm, they wrote letters of remorse and handed them over to the government office, promising not to commit the crime again, and they also applied to the Doctorate Academy.

This time, the surging actions of merchants, people and craftsmen completely scared these Confucian scholars, and no one opposed Xiao Ming's decree announced.

News kept coming, and Xiao Ming was very satisfied with the reactions from all parties. He did not expect that he would take this opportunity to completely establish his own talent training and selection system.
