It was already dark all night, and Xu Ping raised his head from the desk, stretched his waist, and stood up.

To take on the heavy burden, it is not just a matter of making a determination, but to have to work hard for several years. After the army passed Xiao Pass, Xu Ping no longer had to worry about the war. The people of the Dangxiang people had dispersed, and there was no suspense in the Song army's victory. The victory was only a question of how to win. Xu Ping only needed to grasp the overall situation and point out the direction, and not missed the agreement with the Khitan Yelu Zong Zhenqiu to hunt under Yinshan.

Now Xu Ping's efforts are mainly focused on straightening out the systems in the army and rebuilding the culture in the army. There is no ready-made answer there. Xu Ping once thought that the ready-made system in his previous life was the answer, but it is not. Whether it is the ancients or later generations, they are part of history and have their historical limitations. Without a system that can last forever and can last forever, how can future generations laugh at the foolish people of this era, and how will later generations laugh at the foolish people of this era? Instead of admitting that they are willing to be laughed at by later generations, how can they not laugh at the ancients themselves? Without an answer that remains unchanged forever, you have to find it yourself.

If Xu Ping must tell you the advantages of being better than people in this era, Xu Ping would think that when encountering problems he does not know, he should go to practice and answer them. In this era, everyone is still accustomed to leveraging the laws of nature and human nature.

On the table table are the books of a large number of scholars in the guardian curtain, and Xu Ping takes a lot of time to watch every day. As the commander of the first army, Xu Ping can grasp the entire army from a macro perspective, but he cannot understand what everyone in the army thinks. Xu Ping's method is to recruit a large number of young scholars from the mainland and ask them to do some chores. For example, helping the soldiers in the army write letters, solve the cultural difficulties they need in their daily needs, and teach the soldiers to read and read to Xu Ping to solve the problem. The most important thing is that they have to sort out their own experiences and present them to Xu Ping. From the words like their diary every day, Xu Ping understands what they think in the army.

Of course, this kind of work is not in vain. In addition to the money and grain distributed by the Protectorate, Xu Ping gave them preferential treatment to the next year. They no longer participated in the promulgation examinations in various states, but were directly participated in the provincial examinations by the Protectorate of Longyou. The first month has been decided to open the Jinshi exams in the next year, and the number of admissions has increased, solving the huge gap in official positions after the Party Leadership.

There must be an examination system for the selection of officials, and now the imperial examinations cannot be replaced. As for the means such as using schools instead of imperial examinations in the future, Xu Ping does not need to think about it. That was originally one of the contents of Wang Anshi's reforms in history, a system used by the Northern Song Dynasty. Even the content of the examinations was no longer based on classics, and Xu Ping would not mention them. Someone would propose them. The ancients had limitations, but they were not fools in intelligence. Once they found the way, they would go on their own.

Standing in front of the window and looking at the bright moonlight, Xu Ping sighed infinitely. When he came to this world, he was just thinking about living a life of wealth and prosperity in a daze. Until he slowly integrated into this world, knew his responsibilities, and had the courage to shoulder the heavy burden, he was really a part of this world. From the perspective of Zhenrong Jun, he realized that he was a person in this world.

There was a noise outside, and Xu Ping walked out in a staircase. This was some of the young scholars who came to the Longyou Protectorate's House, and some were scattered in the army. They took turns to report to Xu Ping. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the future prospects of being able to work in the Protectorate's House would be limitless, not to mention the benefits of not having to give up the trial. They would not take heavy responsibilities in the army and not go to the front line, so there would be no danger.

At the beginning, Xu Ping did not ask them for advice or consult about their marching and war. Some people were dissatisfied and felt that they were despised. Now they have gradually gotten used to it. After a few months, they knew that they did not understand the war. They could only do those chores in the army, and commanded the war or let professionals do it. They had this experience and knew what was going on in the army, and they would also benefit from it for the rest of their lives.

Seeing Xu Ping coming in, everyone hurriedly got up and bowed.

Let everyone sit down, Xu Ping asked Tan Hu to find a chair and sit down at the door casually. If it were the past, the atmosphere would have been very awkward when these people first came. As Xu Ping, he should have sat in the middle. Everyone listened to the teachings and became accustomed to it after a long time. Confucian scholars are the most etiquette and the most important class in the army. Xu Ping was so casual in the army that he frightened many people at the beginning. Fortunately, Xu Duhu is for the country and the people, and has worked hard and made great contributions, so everyone has to come and give in to him.

Seeing a dozen or twenty people gathered around a pot of boiled mutton and drank casually, Xu Ping said to Tan Hu: "Although it is late spring, it is still very cold at night in the northwest. Go and find some good meat, I will roast it with you and eat it, drink some wine as you like to get rid of the cold."

Tan Hu Yingnuo turned around and took two personal soldiers. Wang Xiang, who was sitting in the crowd, whispered: "How can we eat mutton after it is roasted and dry and hard? When we arrived in the northwest, I saw that the Hu people like to eat this the most. How can we Han people learn from them?"

Zhang Zai on the opposite side said seriously: "How did Zizhi say this? This book is one of the eight treasures. The food that the Han people have eaten for thousands of years is not Hu Feng!"

Seeing that both sides were moved and had the intention of discerning, Xu Ping hurriedly stopped. These people read not knowing what books they have read since childhood. Such small things can also catch up with ancient times and explore human nature. Once they start, they don’t know when they will go. Diet depends on the local atmosphere. If you are in this place, you still have to eat Jiangnan food. Isn’t it for yourself to feel uncomfortable?

This group of people can be roughly divided into two sources. One is Guan Zhongshizi, and the other is scholars from Jiangnan, especially Fujian Road. Guan Zhongshizi is a good place, while Fujian Road scholars are related to Su Song.

Su Song was twenty-two years old. In recent years, because of Xu Ping's recommendation, he has been studying in Chongwen Academy. Both families have the intention of marrying Panpan, but it has not been decided. Xu Ping is only fifteen years old and the child is too young, so hesitant. It is best to wait for another year or two, Panpan himself thinks it is good. Su Niang is a little hesitant because Su Song has good knowledge, but he has not won the Jinshi in the end. With the current status of the Xu family, he must not be the top scholar, but at least he must be the first-class Jinshi.

The Su family wanted to get to this family, so when the Longyou Protectorate said he would recruit scholars to work in the middle of the temple, they immediately sent Su Song. After all, Xu Ping had the final say. As long as Xu Ping agreed, it would be hard for others to say anything.

The Su family is a big family in Fujian and a scholarly family. When Su Song came, he followed a large number of scholars from his fellow villagers. Many of them are related to their relationships. Relatives are related to relatives, and they study together since childhood, and have a good time to try together.

After a few months, these people were naturally divided into two factions. The Guan Zhongshi was led by Zhang Zai, and the Fujian scholars were relatively calm because of Su Song's personality. They were not led by him, but Liu Chang as the core.

Liu Chang is Wang Yaochen's cousin and Wang Zhu's nephew. He is related to Xu Ping in many ways. He is a family friend of the Su family. He has been studying with Su Song since he was a child. When he came to the northwest, he not only introduced Su Song, but also brought letters of recommendation from Wang Yaochen and Wang Zhu. The two groups, scholars from Fujian Road, have complicated relationships with relatives and friends, while Guan Zhongshi was full of energy and had some small conflicts. However, young people are at the right time to make progress. Small frictions occur every day, but there are no major conflicts. The relationship is generally harmonious. At the most energetic age, they have seen a new world in the Longyou Pavilion together.
