"I can't understand it, I can't accept it, it's simply inexplicable!" There were bursts of complaints from the carriage where Zhitai Academy was located.
You must know that in Izumo, women cannot be officials, and they can get married at the age of sixteen.
Many of the women in the academy are over twenty years old, so they can be said to be typical older unmarried young women with high education.
It is not uncommon to see the family busy arranging the marriage on weekdays, but unexpectedly at this time they saw the marriage urging again, and it was the imperial court urging the marriage!
It made many female students of Zhitai Academy go crazy!
"It's going crazy! I've never heard of a single tax..." A woman grabbed her hair in a bun with veins popping out of her forehead.
Not only are they like this, but also the male and female students of other colleges, but the reaction of men is slightly worse.
Although this is just a test paper, this test paper has explained many problems.
"Absurd, really absurd!
"It's more than absurd, it's simply absurd, single tax? It's unheard of, and it's never happened since ancient times!" Several scholars from Wangjing Academy looked at the test papers in their hands and refuted loudly in an inconceivable tone.
It was loud, but no one found it strange.
Even students from other academies think this "single tax" is an anecdote, let alone Wangjing Academy, which is famous for its rigidity.
"Before seeing the ancient clan adopting a soft policy in Izumo, I thought that Prince Zhao was a man with a chest and a stomach, but I didn't expect to come up with such an absurd idea." Wangjing Academy Zou Rui said with a livid face.
"I think it's a good thing." Chang Lu, who has reptile-like eyes and gives off a cold feeling when looking at people, looked up after thinking for a long time.
"Such a tax increase is simply absurd. What good is this?" A scholar snorted softly.
Zou Ruiwen calmed down after hearing this, and after thinking for a while, he said in a low voice: "Brother Chang is right, the more absurd Dayao Chaotang is, the better it is."
"In this way, it's easy to handle. Just follow Prince Zhao's wishes."
…
"Single tax..." Du Lao Liu smacked his mouth with anticipation: "I really want to pay the tax!"
"Go back and I'll tell your guy!" Xu Peng said contemptuously.
That person can hit you eight times with one hand.
"Hey, I'm expecting you to pay taxes!" Du Laoliu immediately changed his mouth.
"Remember you still have some private money? Do you want money or your life?" Xu Peng poked him with his elbow with a malicious smile.
"..."
Someone saw Tonglan sitting there with a thoughtful expression on her face, and said with a smile: "Why, are you thinking about paying taxes? You have been alive for a few years. Some of us here will have to pay taxes."
"Hmph!" Tonglan snorted lightly.
She doesn't care about 10% of the annual salary.
And she is only seventeen this year.
What she was thinking about was how Yagui was thinking, and what kind of impact this single tax would have.
"In fact, those who are difficult to get married are the weakest and the lowest-income people. If this single tax is really introduced, their survival pressure will be even greater." Shi Gan said with a pen in his hand .
"That's true, this strategy is wrong! My ancient clan is better off, but those low-level civilians who are out of the cloud, it is not easy to survive. If their tax burden is increased, I am afraid there will be a backlash!" It was Shi Yu who spoke, Although he has the same surname as Shi Gan, he is a commoner's son.
He is also the only civilian student left in this period of students.
"Rebound? Just kill them. Anyway, they are all incompetent people!" Tong Lan said in a tone full of indifference.
"You really think so?" Shi Gan looked at her with a smile.
Copper Orchid has undergone many changes over the years.
Although she beat and kicked Du Laoliu, Xu Peng and other students at every turn, there are so many common people in the school, but Tonglan has never seen Tonglan bully them.
Tonglan is a girl who always says one thing in her mouth and another in her heart.
"It's just some useless Izumo people." Tong Lan said without raising her head.
Shi dared to laugh without saying a word.
"I don't know why, Yagui always seems to be in a hurry, and seems to be in a hurry to plan something. So he values those Jing clan and Izumo people, and wants to use them to solve the problem of shortage of manpower. This time it is obvious Yes, Ya Gui is planning to pick some of those Izumo people, so he won't start a killing spree in Izumo." Shi Yu analyzed.
As for why the ghost was in such a hurry, she didn't know.
However, there are some students among the students who are clear about it.
Such as Shi Gan, such as Tonglan.
They all knew the reason why Ren Baqian was so urgent.
But most people don't know. Although these students are all descendants of officials in the court, most of them are collateral, so such important matters will naturally not be heard by them.
…
Ren Baqian carefully read the collected test papers and picked out a dozen of them.
"Have you gained anything?" The empress is combing Erhua's long single ponytail at the back of her head. Although it seems that this is indeed something her mother did, the empress is just a whim.
Or a little boring in the car.
The number of times the empress combed Erhua's hair in the past three years can be counted on one hand.
Erhua enjoyed lying on the empress' lap, her legs raised and lowered behind her, and her fingers drew circles on the empress's clothes.
Ren Baqian handed over a dozen papers to the Empress: "These people look pretty good."
"No, I don't understand those things." The Empress waved her hand.
Ren Baqian smiled and took the paper back.
Although the dozen or so test papers did not clearly explain the relationship between stillness, movement and reference objects, the meaning is there.
If you really give them some time, maybe they can really sum it up in more incisive language.
It has to be said that the level of these scholars is still good.
People in this world are not short of wisdom.
All that's missing are tall enough shoulders and another way of thinking.
In the evening, Ren Baqian asked someone to distribute the third set of test questions, and not long after, someone sent him the answers to the second set of test questions.
After a few minutes in a row, Ren Baqian laughed.
"Those female students of Zhitai Academy are full of grievances!"
All the female students tried their best to explain how cruel and inhumane the "single tax" is from various angles.
A wave of resentment from a highly educated, unmarried young woman hit her face.
After reading the test papers one by one, Ren Baqian always had a faint smile on his face.
When he saw a few test papers, he frowned slightly.
These papers are not accusing single tax, but praise single tax.
Words like "a pioneering move that has not been seen in a thousand years" have come out.
Looking at the front page, it is a student of Wangjing Academy.
This is the case for several pictures in a row.
Ren Baqian frowned and thought for a moment, then turned out the first test paper before, only to see that the students of Wangjing Academy did not have any insightful answers on this test paper.
Two of them were even blank.
As for the other five, two of them are general remarks, and it is quite remarkable to be able to make general remarks on this kind of issue.
The other three levels are also very average.
Coupled with the exaggerated remarks in the second test paper about "single tax", Ren Baqian directly marked Wangjing Academy with an x in his heart.
Afterwards, Ren Baqian read all the answers, picked out more than a dozen test papers and put them aside, and then sighed: "The name is not worthy of the name!"
"No one that suits you?" The empress, who was idle and bored playing golden hook fishing with Erhua, looked up at him, then lowered her head again. "You are not following the requirements of the students of Zizhu Academy."
Ren Baqian immediately knew that the empress had misunderstood, and explained: "I mean Wangjing Academy, the first of the five academies."
Speaking of this, Ren Baqian shook his head slightly: "These scholars from Wangjing Academy are not in the right mind. The scholars sent by the academy are deceitful and have malicious intentions towards the imperial court. This is inseparable from the atmosphere and education of the academy."
"Even if they are smarter, I can take a look at them. They probably think I'm a fool. This Wangjing Academy, please close it!"
"Then close it!" the Empress said indifferently. "If you want to, you can just flatten it, so as not to leave some troubles."
"It's not necessary. Have you ever heard a saying? A scholar can't succeed in rebelling for three years. These people can only use small means. If they don't know how to repent in the future, and then punish their three clans, they will be considered famous!"
The empress paused for a moment with her hand stretched out to take pictures, then looked up at him and said, "Father said before that a learned person has a poisonous mind. After seeing you, I believe it!"
"Just say it casually. I spared their lives from His Majesty. If they don't know how to live or die, they can only say Amitabha!"
The two of them sentenced Wangjing Academy to death with just a few words.
"Cao Gui from Xiaojiang Academy is really good. He even proposed the method of reducing taxes instead of increasing taxes. It's a bit insightful." After that, Ren Baqian read the dozen or so test papers again, and started from the first test paper. Cao Gui's share was found in the book.
The answers to the two test papers were quite to his liking.
In addition, Ma Hualong from Xiaojiang Academy, Plenary Ning from Jiangling Academy, Guo Chunsheng from Baiquan Academy, Wu Fan and Wuchen brothers from Fenghu Academy are also good.
There are also some people, although not as outstanding as these people, but they also have certain insights, you can look forward to it.
Then wait to see the answer to the third test paper.
It looks like I can gain something this time!
Besides those Izumo students, some students in the school also wrote the second test paper, and the growth of these students made him extremely gratified.
