Hezhou.
It was close to the border of Tuyuhun.
It was also the place that suffered the most from the locust plague.
There were Qinling Mountains above and Ba Mountain below. On the right was Qilian Mountain, which was separated from Tuyuhun.
It was like a basin that covered the damned locusts. The people inside couldn't get out, and the people outside couldn't get in.
Fortunately, Li Laoer was wrong.
It was the current emperor who thought of a clever idea to save Hezhou from a terrible situation. However, after the locusts left, what else was there on the ground except for the soil?
On the originally fertile land, the sturdy farmers were all gone. Even the leaves on the trees were all bald.
All of a sudden, this fertile place turned into a desolate place. There wasn't even much grain stored here. This was because there were places nearby that produced grain, and the new grain was about to be harvested. The old grain in the storehouse had already been sold long ago.
Or turned over to the treasury.
At this moment.
On the streets of Hezhou City, the people were huddled on both sides of the street listlessly. They stared at the road, waiting for something.
"Clang clang clang!"
"Clang clang clang!"
At this moment.
The sound of gongs rang out incessantly on the street, instantly attracting everyone's attention. .
"The emperor has issued an imperial edict!"
"Everyone, come out and listen to the imperial edict!"
"There's an academy in Chang 'an. Not only is it free, but it will also provide meals. From 12 years old to 30 years old, all of you can enroll in Chang' an White Deer College!"
"Come, everyone, come out. The emperor has issued a great news!"
"Come out …"
As the bailiffs of the Hezhou Provincial Governor's Office shouted in the streets and alleys of Hezhou, everyone understood.
After the crowd was stunned for a moment, the young men couldn't help but burst into an uproar.
"Oh my god!"
"No wonder I had a dream last night. I dreamed of becoming a Jinshi! So it's f * cking real! "
"F * ck, there's such a good thing for free?"
"No, no, listen, listen carefully. Why is that academy different from what we heard? Didn't they say that the academy only teaches literacy? Why are there so many tricks? "
The young and strong men who were standing under the archway discussed and were instantly dumbfounded.
He hurriedly chased after the magistrate and asked, "Sir, sir, what's going on? Wasn't this school a place to study? Why are there so many paths? "
"I don't know! But I heard that this thing is clearly written in the imperial edict. Not only can you learn how to cook with this thing, you can even enter the imperial kitchen and cook for the emperor. If you can learn other skills well, you can even work in the Ministry of Works or the Ministry of Agriculture! "
With the yamen runner's explanation, everyone finally understood.
All of them widened their eyes.
"So, this isn't an academy either!"
However, the man glared and threw a notice at the young man's face.
"Look for yourself. If you don't study and can't read, do you think His Majesty would spend so much effort to think of you? You still have to read this book. Otherwise, when you enter the palace and the emperor gives you something, how can you survive in the palace if you don't understand it? "
While speaking.
The yamen runner left.
There were too many people around, and he was annoyed.
However, the people who stayed were all dumbfounded.
All of them widened their eyes and looked at each other.
"What does this mean? This academy is a place to cultivate talents for the palace?"
"Damn it!"
"That's a good job!"
"And the emperor didn't mention his identity. That is to say, whether it's us slaves or those children of high officials and dignitaries, they can all go there?"
A smart person said so. In an instant, everyone's eyes couldn't help but burn.
What was this?
This was the emperor's son who took pity on them!
If they didn't go, wouldn't they be letting down the emperor's love?
Moreover, this kind of good luck might not happen again in the future. Moreover, he didn't say anything else. He would provide food for them. That was enough.
For the poor people, as long as they were given food, they would be willing to dig feces for them!
And it was to dig feces for the palace.
In the middle of the crowd, there was a strong, dark-skinned young man who was taller than a normal person. He listened to the crowd, but he only remembered two words in his mind.
Provide food!
Involuntarily, a burning light burst out from the young man's innocent eyes.
"Father! I'm going to the academy! "
"I'm going to study in Chang 'an!"
"We're going to have a Martial Scholar in our family!"
The innocent young man ran all the way out of the gate of River State City, and then rushed toward a forest.
In the forest not far away, a hunter was holding three pheasants under his arm and slowly walking down the mountain.
At this moment, he heard a roar.
When the hunter heard that, he couldn't help but move his ears.
That was the voice of his son.
He couldn't help but shout, "Monkey, what are you doing? I'm here! "
In the distance, the hunter saw a small black dot jumping under a tree.
He saw the small black dot looking at him, waving the green foxtail grass in his hand and shouting, "Father! Lao Tzu is going to study in Chang 'an! "
