Martial Arts Master Travelled to Ancient Time and Farms

Chapter 246 Life is ups and downs, unpredictable

Fu-Jun Luo Ping has something urgent to tell you!

What kind of urgent matter would cause Luo Ping to summon the news with such an attitude?

Cheng Ling immediately walked out of the workshop and went back to the next door to meet the messenger.

When the messenger saw Cheng Ling, he bowed first, Cheng Ling helped him up, and he whispered, "Mr. Cheng, a letter has been sent from above. The new scholars are about to be delegated, and 50% of the substitute positions are vacant."

After saying this, the messenger didn't talk much to Cheng Ling, and left immediately.

Cheng Ling was stunned for a moment, and silently digested the news for a while.

After returning to Cheng's workshop, Fang Zhan and Lin Zheng were acutely aware that Cheng Ling's expression was wrong, and they looked at each other. Soon, Fang Zhan asked why.

Cheng Ling didn't hide it, but he didn't directly say what the messenger said, but said, "Two seniors, you may have to resign in your later life."

"What?" Fang Zhan said in shock, "Are you... who is persecuting this?"

The words of his resignation came out, but Cheng Ling calmed down.

She smiled and said: "No one is forcing it, it's just the general trend. In addition, the younger generation just figured out some things. Mr. Fang, this agricultural book is about to be compiled. When the time comes, I will still ask you to help promote it."

Saying that, Cheng Ling gave Fang Zhan a bow.

Fang Zhan's heart was still immersed in shock, but Cheng Ling's words asking him to promote agricultural books made him relax again.

"Don't worry, fool!" Fang Zhan immediately helped Cheng Ling up.

After such a change, Fang Zhan was not interested in going around the loom any more, so he said goodbye to Cheng Ling in a hurry.

Although Cheng Ling didn't fully explain what he said just now, in the officialdom, Fang Zhan's mind was no slower than anyone else's.

He even understands the general trend better than many people. Cheng Ling's few words have already caused Fang Zhan to have many guesses in his heart. Naturally, he had to go out quickly and find out more clear news.

After Fang Zhan left, Lin Zheng didn't stay any longer.

But before he left, he still asked Cheng Ling one more question: "Yuzhi, you have resigned from office, but are you interested in the imperial examination?"

As an official scholar, Lin Zheng is not more sensitive than Fang Zhan in this regard, but the imperial examination has always been something he is committed to promoting, so when he opens his mouth, he is even more direct to the point than Fang Zhan.

Cheng Ling was young, so what if he resigned from office? Could it be that she will go into hiding from now on?

In a chaotic world, recluse may not necessarily mean freedom.

Lin Zheng asked Cheng Ling, his eyes were bright and full of expectations.

Cheng Lingdao: "To tell the truth, sir, the imperial examination is on the right track, and the juniors are not without thoughts. But things are unpredictable, and what the future will be like, we need to take a step by step."

Lin Zheng was a little disappointed. In fact, he never really understood why Cheng Ling always avoided the imperial examination.

Like the Luo family and other big families, the Luo family children will still be willing to go to the official school to study, and are willing to show their talents in the scientific examination room——

The imperial examination has been carried out to this day, although it cannot completely replace the inspection system, most of the high-ranking officials of the court are still in the upper position. However, a large number of officials of the new generation are already from the imperial examination.

Even the children of aristocratic families, generally speaking, only those who are really unable to study, and whose ability to take the exam is utterly ruined, will cut off the imperial examination and instead take the grace-yin route or the censure route.

Cheng Ling is so smart - anyway, in Lin Zheng's opinion, Cheng Ling is very smart. Lin Zheng even found out that Cheng Ling has the ability to never forget!

This ability, many scholars envy and fascinate.

Cheng Ling didn't seem to want to take the imperial examination route, which made it very difficult for Lin Zheng to understand.

Lin Zheng even guessed that Cheng Ling had another meaning? And he... can't understand this deep meaning?

Therefore, sometimes it is easy for smart people to see the truth of the matter, and sometimes, it is easy for smart people to be "mistaken by wisdom"!

Who would have thought?

The fundamental reason why Cheng Ling was unwilling to participate in the imperial examination was that her real body was originally a woman!

Participating in the imperial examinations as a daughter is like being an official as a woman, although it is also deceiving the emperor, but...the official does not need to undergo a medical examination, but the imperial examination requires a body search!

Cheng Ling would be able to endure it if he just took off his coat in public, but if the investigation is strictly enforced, he would be called naked... Cough, this is probably not possible...

After all, those who can afford to read books these days are either from aristocratic families, or from poor families with vacant wealth and lack of power, and it is difficult for the real children of poor families to afford books.

Scholars are expensive, and if they really want to do this, it would be too insulting to the gentleman.

But even if you don't take off your clothes and ask the inspector to touch it from head to toe, it won't work.

Even if Cheng Ling is flat, she also has a small steamed bun. She must not be touched like this... How can this be good?

Cheng Ling was in an indescribable distress for the first time since crossing.

Anxiety could not delay the business. Feeling that Fu Jun sent a letter in advance, and the rest day ended the next day, Cheng Ling immediately handed over his resignation form to the yamen.

Cheng Ling didn't take his resignation seriously, he picked it up when he said it was picked up, and put it down when he said it was put down, but Cheng Ling's resignation still caused a storm in the entire prefecture's yamen.

Colleagues are all shocked, and many of them have retained Cheng Ling.

Luo Ping also asked Cheng Ling seriously: "Have you really decided?"

Cheng Ling said casually, "Let's put it down today, it may not be another smooth road. Thank you for reminding me of the late life!"

Otherwise, if you wait for the imperial edict to come down and immediately strip your official position, wouldn't it be a loss of face and rank? It's better to resign yourself!

Of course, Luo Ping only said that the court might dismiss 50% of his acting positions, but in fact, it might be less than 50%. After all, the number of new jinshi is limited, how can a large number of them be invested in Yongzhou?

Fifty percent is an exaggeration, and two or three of the new scholars who can really come to Yongzhou are the limit.

There are only two or three, Cheng Ling's political achievements in Yongzhou are not shallow, and he can operate it completely, and he does not have to take the initiative to resign.

Her resignation was actually beyond Luo Ping's expectations. Luo Ping sent her a letter in advance, not to imply that she would resign quickly, but to have a deeper meaning.

But Cheng Ling was so free and easy, Luo Ping was stunned for a moment, and his eyes on Cheng Ling changed again.

After Cheng Ling left, Luo Ping's confidant walked up to him and said, "Fu Jun, this man is so reckless, he would rather resign than ask Fu Jun for help, I'm afraid it will be difficult to tame, whether..."

His palm was slightly raised, of course, this did not mean to kill Cheng Ling.

To put it in the past, kill a person who is disobedient... If you kill it, you will kill it, but now it is different.

The aide thought of the evil spirit firmly anchored in Yongzhou, but his heart was awe-inspiring. Now we must not be like before, lightly touching people's lives, and unscrupulous.

But killing is only the simplest and crudest way to solve a problem. If you really want to suppress a person, there are often countless ways.

Luo Ping waved his hand and said: "No, Cheng Yuzhi dares to make such a decision, he can afford it and let it go, but the old man appreciates him even more!"
