(029), Named Disciple

"So their father and son are your neighbors." The dean of the academy said with a smile. However, after he finished laughing, a hidden worry appeared between his eyebrows, and he continued slowly: "Muwen, the most worrying place for the old man is the child's family background in vain. If he enters the academy, he will inevitably be looked down upon, and I am afraid that if he can't help but make a move, our whole academy will get into trouble. ”

"I don't have the right to meddle in this kind of thing, but since the dean is so difficult to make a decision, he must have thought of it, right?" Lin Shan smiled slightly and continued: "The ancestors of the old hunters of the Xing family live here, and they are also considered to have some connections in the township, if the dean refuses directly, I am afraid that he will seem to be a little nostalgic." ”

Hearing this, the dean nodded and said, "Mu Wen broke the old heart taboo in one word, do you have any good way to solve this matter?" ”

Lin Shan groaned for a moment, and then leaned close to the dean and whispered something. Seeing the dean's face slowly smiling, he nodded silently to Lin Shan, and then turned around and walked towards the father and son of the criminal family.

"Let's go." Lin Shan glanced at the dean's back, and then took Mo Ye's hand and left.

After the dean approached the Xing family's father and son, he said a few words to them, and saw a smile slowly bloom on Xing Laohan's originally calm and strict face. It's just that this smile brought the deep wrinkles on his face, which didn't look very good, but revealed a bitterness. The torture wind beside him was full of excitement, and when the three of them all looked at Lin Shan's side, preparing something, they wanted to say nothing, because Lin Shan had already taken Mo Ye away.

Walking on a quiet forest road, the evergreen camphor trees planted on the side of the road are still green in the middle of winter. The original faint smell of camphor is more obvious in the cold air of this winter, although the smell is not as pleasant as the fragrance of flowers, but it can clear the mind and calm the air, which is conducive to the students of the college to relax their mood after studying.

Seeing that there was no one around, Mo Ye finally couldn't help but ask Lin Shan, "Master, what did you whisper to that old master just now?" ”

Lin Shan looked ahead, although he was already very familiar with the emerald color of this road, he still liked to let the verdant of the four seasons occupy his eyes. Hearing Mo Ye's curious question, he said slowly: "I will ask the dean to accept Xingfeng as a registered disciple. ”

Mo Ye asked, "What is a named disciple?" ”

"It's a disciple who will be removed at any time." Lin Shan's simple answer seemed a little cruel.

Mo Ye couldn't help but stop and said, "Master, didn't you want to help me?" ”

"I'm already helping him." Lin Shan also stopped, looked at Mo Ye and said, "Ye'er, you have to understand that the dean is worried about Xing Feng's identity, and if he can accept him as a registered disciple, he is already giving in." ”

Mo Ye said worriedly: "However, it may be that Xingfeng will be removed soon." ”

"I've opened the door for him, and it's up to him to do the rest. However, if that child does not have the talent to study, forcing him to stay is harming him. Lin Shan's tone paused for a moment before he said: "He was not born with dementia, even if he can't achieve anything in studying, he will definitely be able to find what he is best at." Everyone can find their place in this world, the sooner or later time is just a small section, the terrible thing is that if you stand in the wrong place and keep being wrong, it is a waste of time and no results. ”

Mo Ye didn't speak, just nodded after being silent for a while, agreeing with Master's words.

Lin Shan continued to walk on the Xiaolin Road, Mo Ye followed behind him, and heard Lin Shan mutter: "Today is the first step, but Mo Ye, you have to remember today's events and remember my words." One cannot regard the help of others as a kind of dependence, then one will not have the backbone to stand and walk. The necessary independence allows you to take control of your own destiny, and to rely on others is actually at the mercy of others. ”

Mo Ye said with a puzzled expression: "Ye'er doesn't understand." ”

Lin Shan sighed and said, "If I don't help you today, will you figure it out yourself or continue to find someone else who can help you?" What else can you do if they don't help you either? If Xing Feng is removed from the academy, will you be powerless and disgusted with the academy? And the reason for this qiē is only because you want your friend not to stay away from you, and you yourself are powerless to hold on to him. But have you ever thought that you can try to learn more and strengthen yourself first, so as to give your friend a hand when he is in need? If your friend is still expelled from the College, you can read books extensively to think about his next path. ”

Mo Ye listened quietly to Lin Shan's teachings, and his eyes, which were full of doubts, gradually lit up.

And Lin Shan's tone paused for a while and then came out with the last sentence: "Change yourself first, then you can change others; Strengthen yourself before you can help others. ”

It took nearly an hour in total, and Lin Shan took Mo Ye around Lizheng Academy. Originally, based on the area of the academy, it didn't take so long to complete, but the purpose of Lin Shan's wandering around the academy with Mo Ye was not only to enjoy the scenery, but also to explain the main area of the academy.

Lai Ching College consists of Kindergarten, Junior College and Principal College. A large college includes three levels of students, and there are three places to choose a career to study. In addition to the age limit, there are essential differences between these three places.

In the kindergarten, children under the age of eight are mainly studied, and the basic texts and literary classics are mainly studied. However, preschool is actually a subsidiary of Lizheng Academy, and most of the students who come for official careers are directly admitted to junior high school through the entrance examination. Most of the children in kindergarten are the sons of businessmen, because of family background, they have not been influenced by scholarly families since childhood, and most of them can't read a few words, so they start from kindergarten.

The difference between the young school and the kindergarten school is that the students who enter the young school will inevitably be able to master the basic ability to recite poetry, while the students who enter the young school are actually ready to advance to the main college. After entering the main academy, the students' goals for studying changed radically, and they began to study classics that tended to govern the country and the country. More than 30% of the students who can enter the main college can be admitted, more than half of the mathematics students can be admitted to Xiucai, and the poorest part of the students can also find a job as a private school teacher.

The imperial examination system of Zhaoguo has made it clear that the Son of Heaven is thirsty for talent, and the door to seek talents is widened, and all the people of Zhaoguo under the age of 50 are qualified for scientific examinations. If you are over 50 years old and have not yet achieved fame, you can also use the 'recommended national policy' of writing to obtain the green approval documents after the approval of the Kyoto National Supervision and Verification Bureau, and you can receive a certain amount of money with the documents every month.

Zhaoguo's move has aroused the enthusiasm of students across the country to study. And the Lizheng Academy, which is rumored to be the person in charge of the royal family, has undoubtedly become the authority in the academy. The main academy has become a ladder that haunts the aura of authority and leads to Qingyun Road.

But as long as Lin Shan Mo Ye enters kindergarten, it remains to be discussed whether she will enter kindergarten in the future.

Mo Ye did not object to this. First of all, she is very confident, with her master here, she will naturally not miss anything she can learn if she learns less, and Mo Ye is not interested in the main academy. After being introduced by her master, she learned about the nature of the main academy, and in the opinion she had at this age, going to the main academy meant preparing for a career of fame, which was not uncommon for her to be at all. And although there is no strange person in Zhaoguo now, Mo Ye has not much interest in being the first person. Just looking at the life in front of her at this time, she already felt very satisfied and happy.

A five-year-old child, although the real identity is complicated, but the real childhood life was spent in a remote village, where there are so many grand ideas.

After introducing the library pavilion, the academy restaurant, and the residence of the academy for students from other places that Mo Ye had infinite admiration and curiosity, Lin Shan took Mo Ye to the library pavilion. Because Lin Shan had a class to teach in the morning, he would temporarily put Mo Ye at Chai Yan, who was in charge of the library pavilion.

When he was about to walk to the gate of the library pavilion, he saw a young scholar about thirteen years old walking out of the library pavilion.

When the young scholar saw Lin Shan, he hurriedly saluted and said, "The student meets Mu Fuzi." ”

Lin Shan smiled back. The name he used in the academy was Mu Yi, and Mo Ye also knew it, so Mo Ye didn't feel strange about the young scholar's title to his master, so he just stood silently beside Lin Shan and watched.

The young scholar stood up after the ceremony, and when he saw Mo Ye, he smiled and said to Lin Shan: "Is this the newly enrolled junior brother?" ”

"You're really eye-catching." Lin Shan glanced at Mo Ye with a smile, and then said, "It's true that I'm going to enter school today, but I'm just entering kindergarten, and I'm not sitting at the same table as you." ”

Hearing this, the young scholar said respectfully: "We are in the same academy, even if we don't sit at the same table, we are all comrades in the same academy and brothers in the same academy. When he came here, he looked at Mo Ye and said, "The junior brother has just entered the academy, if there is anything you don't understand in the future, you can come to the senior brother to solve your doubts." ”

The young scholar said this, how could Mo Ye not know the basic etiquette. She took a step forward as soon as the other party finished speaking, and after snorting at him, she also said seriously: "Thank you, senior brother." ”

Seeing this, Lin Shan, who was on the side, said warmly: "Since you and this little boy are familiar at first sight, you might as well take a step ahead of other students and call each other brothers." ”

The young scholar respectfully accepted Mr. Zhiye's instructions, and Mo Ye also obeyed the master's wishes. The two bowed to each other again, exchanged names, and then chatted a few more words before the young scholar left with the book in his hand. When he walked away, after a brief introduction by Lin Shan, Mo Ye knew that this young scholar named Song Qing and Zirui was the young master of the silk dealer in the county.

After listening to Lin Shan's introduction, Mo Ye habitually touched his braids, but found that he was empty, and finally had to let out a long breath and said: "It turned out to be the son of a merchant, no wonder it gives people a very false feeling." ”――

ps:

The meaning of the word is similar to that of a nickname, but the meaning is in two directions. Nicknames are often suspected of being spoofed, and the words are meant to be virtuous. The literati practiced multiple virtues and etiquette, and generally did not call each other by their names, but by their words, which meant to respect others. At the same time, things gather like people and divide them into groups, and the other party's elegant words are shouted by themselves, which can also improve their own status - even if the other party's character is not as good as its words.

The historical record form can only be officially recognized after the coming-of-age ceremony, and it has changed slightly in mine, and it can be written when you enter the school. This habit of honorific titles among literati should be cultivated from the time of school.
