On this day, the notice on the imperial list was refurbished, and news spread throughout the capital, and it was soon known by everyone.

In the outer city, in a restaurant.

"Have you heard? There are bandits in Qinzhou. It's terrible. 10,000+ people have died!"

"What else? Huh, it's a good thing we're in the capital, so the disaster doesn't reach here, so many people died?"

The other person at the same table was surprised at first, then there was a trace of rejoicing in his expression, and then asked with a frown.

"I'm afraid it's just too much." The man said with lingering fear.

He is a dealer who resells cloth and silk. He came from the junction of Zhangzhou and Qinzhou. He has seen the group of murderous bandits from afar. This is drinking and eating.

According to his inquiries, so many bandits came from nowhere in Qinzhou, burning, killing and looting everywhere. A few days ago, no less than [-] to [-] innocent people died under their hands.

Now, I'm afraid there are more of them.

"Brother Yu actually knows the inside story?"

At this time, a middle-aged man came from a distance. He was well-dressed and well-behaved. It seemed that he had some family background.

"Brother Song." Yu Fei stood up and cupped his hands.

The two are business partners, and they are considered acquainted. They planned to visit his house tomorrow, but they did not expect to meet here.

Song Yun arched his hands, nodded to the other person on the table, and sat down straight away.

"Brother Yu knows the inside story of Tanzhou?"

After sitting down, Song Yun asked again.

Yu Fei smiled wryly and shook his head: "I can know what's going on, it's just that the delivery passed by Qinzhou a while ago, and I saw some cruel incidents, so I just asked a little bit!"

Song Yun took a deep breath and asked, "Did so many people die in Qinzhou?"

The sound of the conversation between the two just passed into his ears vaguely, and he was very curious.

"There should be tens of thousands. Alas, the damn bandits made me dare not go back to Yuezhou." Yu Fei let out a sad and angry voice. He is just a businessman, he has more than enough to protect himself, but not enough to help others.

Even if he wanted to, he was powerless. In the eyes of a group of bandits who only knew how to rob money and kill, he was just a fat sheep who didn't dare to go anywhere but stayed in the capital to save his life.

Song Yun's face was shocked, and then became gloomy again: "Do you know what I just saw on the notice in the inner city?"

"What?" the two asked in unison.

"Your Majesty has already planned to send someone to suppress the banditry in Qinzhou."

"That's a good thing!"

"Sure enough, Your Majesty will not let those villains endanger Qinzhou."

The two looked happy and said with a smile.

Hearing this, Song Yun seemed unable to sit still, glanced at the two of them, and sighed:

"That's good, but His Majesty didn't plan to send troops to encircle and suppress this time. Instead, he sent new students from the Imperial City Academy and the Southern Confucian Academy to test the new students, and at the same time to promote the prestige of my Zhou Wu Dynasty."

Yu Fei seemed to have thought of something, and his complexion changed immediately: "Brother Song's only son was admitted to the Imperial City Academy this year?"

"This……"

No wonder he keeps asking about Tanzhou's situation, it turns out that's why.

Song Yun smiled bitterly: "Yes!"

"Brother still has something to do, so let's go first, and the two of you will leave!"

Immediately, he got up and cupped his hands towards the two of them, before rushing home without stopping.

……

Not long after the notice was posted, this matter spread throughout the capital. At first, those parents who had children who had just joined the academy didn't care, but when they inquired about the situation in Tanzhou, they couldn't calm down immediately.

They racked their brains to figure out how to prevent their children from participating.

However, at this time, Nanru Academy welcomed a group of people.

"What kind of Southern Confucian Academy is this? Hehe, it is too dilapidated to be built in such a deep mountain and old forest!"

With a sneer, Bai Heng kicked a stone away from the bottom of his foot, expressing his dissatisfaction.

"That's enough, I said it when my father came here, don't underestimate the current Nanru Academy, follow me up the mountain to see Dean Huang, shut up when it's time to shut up, and don't cause trouble!"

Bai Anchou gave the second son a hard look, he doesn't need to worry about the eldest son, but this time the son really made him worry.

I came here today to read the imperial decree, and bringing him here is to gain insight, and to teach by example, I don't want my son to continue to be muddled.

In fact, Bai Heng is not too bad among his peers. Leaving aside his cultivation, he can be regarded as a great talent anywhere, but there are Liu Qingge and Ming Shuchen who are better than him, and they beat him. As a result, he missed the position of champion.

If he is willing to wait another three years, the next No. [-] scholar must be him.

However, he only hates that he was born in an official family, that he would not be the number one scholar, and he would not be able to make it to the stage after all.

On the outside, Liu Qingge abused him until his body was bruised, and on the inside, he was overwhelmed by his prominent family background, making him breathless.

Wen Youming robbed him of the No. [-] Scholar position, and Wu You's eldest brother, one of the Four Great Talents, scolded him.

It can be said that Bai Heng's life was very tragic.

... Am I only causing trouble?
"Yes!" Bai Heng's eyes were gloomy, he restrained his expression, and replied.

snort!
Bai Anchou glanced at him rather resentfully for his disappointment, snorted coldly, and walked towards Qinghe Mountain.

Behind him, in addition to the four guards, there were also two officials from the Ministry of Rites and a young eunuch.

"Who is coming?"

Just when they stepped into Qinghe Mountain, a figure appeared in front of them, blocked the way, and asked.

Bai Anchou's expression remained unchanged, and a deep voice sounded: "I, Minister of the Ministry of Officers and Military Affairs, Bai Anchou, came to announce the imperial decree by His Majesty's decree. Hurry up and ask your dean to come out to receive the decree."

Chen Xiaoliu frowned: "You Minister of the Ministry of War, why did you come to announce the imperial decree? Aren't the imperial decrees usually announced by the Ministry of Rites or the father-in-law without a bird?"

He was an orphan brought back by Huang Yuxiao from other places, so he didn't have any sense of belonging to the Zhou Wu Dynasty, and he had no respect for the royal power and nobles, he almost said whatever he had.

As soon as these words came out, Bai Anchou's face immediately became very ugly, thinking that he was a majestic Shangshu, but today he was ridiculed by a boy guarding the mountain gate.

Little did he know that the speaker was unintentional, but the listener was interested. Seeing that Bai Anchou's expression was not good, Chen Xiaoliu asked curiously, "Are you sick?"

"In this way, my handwriting is beautiful, why don't I write you a prescription for calming the mind, you go get the medicine!"

He still remembered that a few days ago, Junior Brother Yang Mu said that the handwriting he wrote was very similar to that of their doctor. He said that he was a little nostalgic, and he specially asked for a few authentic handwritings from him.

But the content is a bit weird, what are they "penicillin, erythromycin, glucose..."

This kind of new vocabulary he has never seen before, but it doesn't matter if he can understand it or not. He only knows that when his calligraphy came out at that time, Yang Mu's younger brother directly said "good", and he could hear it. The excitement between the lines, I think I am very satisfied with my calligraphy.
