The meeting to welcome the Mishou officials ended quietly, and "Ode to the Willow" made it onto the Ding Ranking. At the same time, it attracted a lot of attention. ±,
In many people's eyes, "Ode to the Willow" put an end to the court examination in Ning An County. The Left Prime Minister's faction was like willow catkins that filled the sky, but it was ended by the Empress Dowager, Minister of Wen, and Fang Yun.
After the first day of the fourth month, Ning An County was as peaceful as its name suggested. Fang Yun began to take over Ning An County. With his aides and Notre-Dame scholars, Ning An County was governed in an orderly manner. Some officials even said, "No one picks up anything on the road, no one closes their doors at night."
In the following days, Fang Yun also calmed down like Ning An County. He no longer had the urgency to fight against the Left Prime Minister's faction. He only dealt with political matters during the day, and at night, if there was nothing urgent, he would study at home and recite the classics of the saints to stabilize his talent.
Fang Yun began to conceal his strength and bide his time.
Fang Yun had already passed the Sword of Tongue Realm, and began to restrain his sharpness. He had to let his sharpness come and go, otherwise he would never be able to become a Hanlin Scholar.
In the entire fourth month, other than the meeting, there was no more news about Fang Yun in Saint Origin. Whether it was the Wen Pao or the Ranking, they all seemed to have forgotten about Fang Yun. However, he did not idle around.
Fang Yun would go to the Cloud Tower every two days to discuss research with the people of the Farmer's Clan. He also used the standards of the laboratory to ask the Cloud Tower to improve.
The Farmer's Cloud Tower was actually a man-made ecosystem and breeding base. However, the system was outdated and lacking, and it was completely up to Fang Yun to perfect it.
In terms of construction, Fang Yun and the officials of the Hall of Works worked together to improve the buildings and roads of Ning An City. Because this project was very large, everything was still on the blueprint.
In terms of medical treatment, it was only a matter of time before Fang Yun received an A grade. The main mission of the Medical Hall was to use Ning An County to verify Fang Yun's "Plague Prevention Law" and other strategies.
In terms of prison, Fang Yun still held the major cases and let the minor ones go. The minor cases were handled by the Warden and the torture room.
In terms of history, Fang Yun had already begun writing the History of Ancient Demons. However, the History of the Ancient Fey was not an ordinary history book. It contained ancient secrets. To turn the Ancient Fey's inheritance into words required a large amount of talent. The History of Ancient Demons was also beneficial to the literary profession of the ten subjects.
In terms of education, Fang Yun had already finished writing "Enriching the Virtuous" and "Learning from the Jasper Forest". These days, he had been editing and editing them. After a while, he would officially send them to the Notre-Dame. These two books not only had the merit of educating children, but also could improve their literary skills, killing two birds with one stone. As for the 《Rules for Disciples》 and 《Fang Clan's Family Teachings》, etc. Fang Yun did not plan to take it out during the Court Examination. He needed to wait for a while.
Every ten days, Fang Yun would write a letter to the descendants of the Fang family far away in Ji County. He would use his own life experience to educate them. As a person who had seen more than a thousand years of history, his experience would be considered ordinary in the later generations. However, in this era, it was on a whole different level.
In terms of the people's livelihood, Ning An County could be said to be peaceful and happy, especially after Fang Yun resolved the food price crisis. He received many good reviews.
Some of the Grand Scholars in the Court Examination were critical. They believed that Fang Yun had cheated by bringing the projection of the Nong family and Yunlou to Ning An County. However, the Nong Hall replied that as long as any Grand Scholar in the Court Examination could perform as well as Fang Yun, they could be invited to the Nong Hall.
There was a lot of turnover in Ning An County. It was extremely difficult to improve people's livelihood. Many of the Grand Scholars in the Court Examination were already secretly fighting for this subject. They believed that Fang Yun could not improve people's livelihood.
People's livelihood involved many aspects. Fang Yun was already planning. From living, entertainment, work, accommodation, transportation, education, security, and dozens of other aspects, he started to change the current situation of Ning An County. These actions seemed normal, such as rebuilding the city and planning the roads. For example, he restricted brothels and gambling dens, added new public entertainment facilities, increased greenery, promoted basic hygiene knowledge, ensured cleanliness of the city, increased patrols, and so on.
These actions would not have any effect in a short period of time. It was a thankless task. Other Grand Scholars in the Court Examination would not do it. However, Fang Yun did not hesitate. This was because the Court Examination was the best way to gradually change and strengthen the human race!
Even if the three Half-saint examiners did not understand the changes and would not raise their ratings, Fang Yun would not stop because of this.
No matter how important the Court Examination was, it was not as important as the future of the human race!
As for governance, it was the most difficult subject. This was the specialty of the School of Miscellaneous Arts. The son-in-law of the Zongsheng Family, Xiang Lancheng, and the Lei family, Lei Shushan, were both fighting for governance. However, Fang Yun had the performance evaluation system. As long as his experiments in the workshop were successful, he would immediately make some changes to the officials in Ning An County.
The performance evaluation system was originally based on the civil service evaluation system. Fang Yun was just using the workshop as a cover. His main goal was to reform governance.
The last subject was military affairs. This was Fang Yun's only shortcoming.
Ning An County was a strategic town with tight security. Furthermore, the Soaring Eagle Cavalry deliberately prevented the barbarians from approaching. Fang Yun did not even have a chance to kill the barbarians.
Previously, the Soaring Eagle Cavalry did not give Fang Yun any military authority. After Fang Yun's uncle, Fang Shouye, became the general of the Green Crow Prefecture, he allowed the Green Crow Prefecture to station outside Ning An County. He also received orders from the Grand Marshal's Office, the Ministry of War, and the Governor of Mishou, Yu Xingshu. When Fang Shouye was not in Ning An County, Fang Yun was given the authority to mobilize this army.
The Green Crow Prefecture's army was originally under the Left Minister's command. However, the army stationed outside Ning An County was temporarily transferred from other armies. There was no problem with their loyalty.
Fang Yun could not lead the army into battle. However, he took a different approach. He designed camouflage uniforms suitable for grassland battles. He adjusted the configuration of the army slightly and improved the logistics, medical, and fortifications of the army according to the concepts of the future and the situation in Saint Origin World. He also changed the training method reasonably.
Although April was quiet, Ning An County was undergoing changes in a way that was hard to detect.
It was not a change, but a complete revolution.
On the first day of the fifth month, there was good news. The three Half-saint examiners gave Fang Yun the "A Grade in Medical Studies". Everyone in Jingguo was excited.
Out of the ten A grades, only nine were left. The atmosphere of the Court Examination had changed. All the Scholars were more cautious and hardworking than before.
On the second day of the fifth month, Fang Yun gathered all the freshmen in the county. From that day onwards, he would give lectures in the Divine Temple every five days. He would teach the Sages' Classics in preparation for the Elementary Scholar Examinations on the fifteenth of the sixth month.
When this was announced, many Scholars protested. Fang Yun was only a Scholar, but he had the "Divine Speech", which was similar to that of a Grand Scholar. No matter what he said, the students would remember it and understand it more easily. It was simply cheating in the Education Examinations.
However, the Notre-Dame's reply was that there would be lectures every year for Scholars. No matter how good Fang Yun was, it was his own ability. He did not borrow any external help.
To Fang Yun, other than the addition of a lecture, the rest of the month was no different from April. This was because some of the plans and policies were formulated in April and implemented by his aides, officials of the various halls, and officials of Ning An County. He only asked about the progress and occasionally disguised himself with the help of the Second Level Painting Dao. He did not find any major problems.
