Chapter 53: The Protégé of the Son of Heaven
The National Academy is built on the foundation of Afang Palace, and the huge National Academy occupies an area, not even one percent of the foundation of Afang Palace.
And in the county schools all over the empire, the county schools are also in order.
Chinese culture is the top, the school is the middle, and the school is the bottom.
Students all over the world should receive enlightenment and education in the school when they are young children.
After the completion of the school, you can enter the school to continue your studies, and only the best of them can be promoted to Chinese culture.
After graduating from the National Academy, you can participate in the imperial court examination, and those with excellent grades will be admitted.
Due to the initial establishment of Chinese culture, the schools and schools in various places have not yet been completed.
Therefore, the first batch of Imperial students gathered in the National Academy to teach in a unified manner.
Those who can enter the National Academy are not rich or expensive, and most of them are the children of official eunuchs.
The high tuition fees will make even the nobles from a wealthy family suffer for a long time.
But the holy decree has been issued, if you want the family to prosper forever, you can only send the outstanding children of the family to study in the country, hoping that they can continue to continue the glory of the family, otherwise it is only a matter of time before the family is in the middle of the road.
The position of President of the National Academy is held by His Majesty himself.
There are two vice presidents, one is Prime Minister Li Si, and the other is Wang Jian, the protector of the country.
In addition to the normal teaching, Zhongxiao Hall, Yanfa Hall, and Yanwu Hall, every ten days, the eldest son Fusu, Prime Minister Li Si and Protector Wang Jian will personally come to the National Academy to teach as tutors.
And what all students look forward to the most is that every other month, His Majesty will come to the National Academy in person and teach it in person in the Hall of the Son of Heaven.
But not everyone can go to the Son of Heaven Palace, in order to compete for the quota of 100 people, everyone is whipped by the parents of the family day and night, and their studies are advancing by leaps and bounds.
The 100 Heavenly Orders issued by the Son of Heaven Hall every month became the fuse for the fierce competition among thousands of students.
In order to compete for a Heavenly Order, not only the sons worked hard, but even the family fathers behind them also tried their best.
It's a pity that it is His Majesty who is responsible for the issuance of the Tongtian Order, even if there is a relationship with Tongtian, who dares to go to His Majesty to ask for tokens?
You can only study hard honestly and strive to enter the top 100 in the monthly exam, so that you can get the order of heaven.
The seat of the Son of Heaven Hall is also determined by excellent results, and those who obtain the first armor can get the No. 1 token, which is the closest position to His Majesty.
The chance of being appreciated by His Majesty is also much higher than that of other seats, if it is only barely ranked in the hundredth, then it is 108,000 miles away from His Majesty, and it can only be said that it is better than nothing.
Therefore, the top ten in the monthly exam have also become the death orders issued by the major royal relatives and nobles in Xianyang to the children of the family.
It's a pity that the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, and after the results of the first monthly examination came out, it was a big surprise.
The person who won the head armor was neither a royal nobleman nor a son of an official eunuch, but a fourteen-year-old boy.
Han Xin's name caused a sensation in Xianyang, and immediately attracted the attention of the major clans, who went around to inquire about Han Xin's origin.
Knowing that Han Xin was from a poor family in Huaiyin County, Surabaya County, everyone almost beat up their uncompetitive cubs.
However, the clans with vast magical powers all know that behind this young man stands His Majesty the First Emperor, the supreme emperor of the empire.
There is no doubt about this monthly exam.
After all, this teenager is no stranger to them.
There have long been rumors in the palace that the treatment of Huaiyin teenagers is the same as that of the princes.
Moreover, His Majesty seems to like this young man very much, and often takes him with him to teach him by word and deed, and many ministers have met this genius boy by chance when they enter the palace to face the saint.
Even in the market, I don't know when, there have long been rumors and rumors, this Huaiyin boy is suspected of being His Majesty's illegitimate son in the people?
However, many people scoffed, how big was Your Majesty when Handan was hostage?
After inheriting the unification, he has been living in the deep palace for a long time, and later patrolling the world, and he is also a hundred officials.
Such absurd statements should naturally not be true.
The Temple of the Son of Heaven is the most magnificent building of the Academy of Heaven, and it rang with the rapid sound of a bell.
A group of students held the Tongtian Order made of colored glass, divided into four verticals according to the order of tokens, and gathered under the high platform of the Son of Heaven Hall in an orderly manner.
"Your Majesty has arrived."
Just when the students were anxiously waiting, Zhao Zhong came to the high platform and shouted loudly.
Ying Zheng sat directly on the throne on the high platform, with a faint smile on his face.
"Meet Your Majesty."
All the sons bent down and bowed their hands.
"Take a seat."
Ying Zheng waved his hand, and Zhao Zhong immediately shouted again.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The sons each knelt down and looked up at the high platform.
Ying Zheng on the throne did not wear an imperial robe, but wore black casual clothes, giving people a gentle and elegant intuitive feeling.
"In the future, when I come to teach, I don't need to perform the courtesy of a monarch and a minister, but only the courtesy of a disciple."
"In Xianyang Palace, I am the first emperor, but in the Academy of National Sciences, I am the emperor."
Ying Zheng didn't have the slightest arrogance, and his voice was easy-going.
"Students meet teachers."
Just when all the sons were stunned and at a loss, Han Xin, who was sitting in the first row and the first seat, stood up directly and bowed his hand.
"Students meet teachers."
The other students came to their senses, and they also stood up in a decent manner, and bowed to Yingzheng in unison.
"Okay, from now on, you will be the protégé of the Son of Heaven."
Ying Zheng laughed, and then continued to the princes: "Do it all!" ”
"Whoa."
Everyone knelt down again, and many of them were in a state of flux, with undisguised joy on their faces.
But he became a protégé of the Son of Heaven?
His Majesty's students, wherever they went, felt very proud and proud in their hearts at the moment.
"I came to teach at the National Academy, and I didn't teach you the science of self-cultivation, nor the knowledge of governing the country, nor did I teach you the knowledge of commanding troops and fighting."
Ying Zheng was unhurried and faced everyone.
"What does the teacher want to teach the students?"
It was Han Xin again, and before the others could react, he spoke again.
"That's a good question."
"What I have taught you, no one in this world can teach except me."
Ying Zheng smiled mysteriously and said to Zhuzi.
"Then this is His Majesty's unique stunt?"
His Majesty is no stranger to Han Xin, but is very close, so he is much more courageous than the other princes.
"That's right, it's really my unique skill."
Ying Zheng felt the vigor and vitality from these young students, as if he had returned to his youth, and he was in a good mood.
"Hah! Ha! Ha! ”
Suddenly, the princes below were also infected by the atmosphere of transcendence, abandoned the restraint and vigilance in their hearts, and laughed loudly.
"Look over there."
"Tell me what you saw?"
Ying Zheng pointed to the high pavilion of the Son of Heaven Hall behind him, and asked everyone.
Everyone's eyes were suddenly guided by Ying Zheng and looked at the fence of the pavilion of the Son of Heaven Palace.
Sure enough, they saw the two-life armorer standing at the fence above.
In the hands of the two armorers, they each held a metal ball of different sizes.
"Great Qin Ruishi."
The vast majority of people spoke in unison, ignoring the metal balls.
In their opinion, maybe it was a new weapon of the Empire?
"Teacher, the student saw a large and a small copper ball."
Han Xin expressed a different opinion, in his mind, His Majesty would not be bored enough to let everyone go to see the two armorers.
So after thinking about it, Han Xin still felt that those two copper balls had a lot of articles.
"It is worthy of being a genius, able to understand the essence of the problem, and the children can be taught."
Ying Zheng made no secret of his appreciation for Han Xin and praised it.
Everyone's eyes were on Han Shin, and all kinds of complicated eyes of jealousy, envy and envy fell on his god.
"You tell me which of these two bronze balls will land first if they are thrown at the same time?"
Ying Zheng looked at the students with a smile, and his tone was quite intriguing.
“??????”
Everyone was full of suspicion, and they were very puzzled why His Majesty would ask such a childish question.
Needless to say?
