Chapter 494: Seeking Common Ground While Reserving Differences

What kind of lively scene was on the day of the semi-finals of Xinglong Tea House, the inmates of the first grade of Jiuzhangtang of Guozijian had no way of knowing. Because of the matter of choosing a fasting chief, it really gave them a very big problem. The most important thing is that the three princes, who were originally the most qualified to suppress everyone in terms of status and status, were actually excluded from the candidates by Zhang Shou!

However, except for the three princes and a minor, everyone else is an adult, and the three stinkers can still top one Zhuge Liang, after someone raised his arms and shouted, after this noisy morning, the chief of the Zhai was still freshly baked.

When Zhang Shou, who had eaten a lively lunch and then came back from the Xinglong Tea House in the outer city, quietly walked to the gate of Jiuzhangtang, he found that no one was empty here, but it was a full house. Ji Jiuzheng, who was standing in the center of the podium, asked word by word: "Is there any opposition to Article 9?" Raise your hand if you oppose it, pass it if you don't object! ”

Hearing this kind of words, Zhang Shou couldn't help but sigh, quite a sense of immediacy of a modern meeting - if you say that those who are in favor please raise their hands, maybe no one will raise their hands all; But if you say that those who oppose please raise their hands, most of the time no one will bother to come out and oppose it, standing on the opposite side of everyone. From this point of view, Ji Jiu, this kid is also another kind of genius.

"Okay, since that's the case, then we will pass these nine articles, and they will be tentatively set as the regulations for the first grade of our Jiuzhangtang in the future. Of course, those regulations of the Guozijian should be observed, Xu Heizi from the rope hall was watching us for a whole morning, he has always liked him to pick thorns, everyone should always pay attention to ......"

Just looking at Ji Jiu's and Lu Sanlang's same fireproof, anti-theft and anti-Xu Heizi tone, Zhang Shou couldn't help but want to laugh, but when he found that there was no opposition in the middle, and there was no laughter, he couldn't help muttering in his heart, secretly wondering if it brought a lot of psychological pressure to this group of students after Xu Heizi rushed over in the morning?

And immediately afterwards, Ji Jiu made a suggestion that surprised him: "Zheng Rong is young, but I think everyone doesn't have to take care of him too much, he is also very good at taking care of himself when he is in the middle of the mountain." I suggest that if the returning teacher can't take care of it and needs someone to substitute the teacher, if he wants to nominate someone from our grade to substitute the teacher, start with him. ”

The panicked voice of the third prince sounded: "Me? No, no, I can't, it's still Ji Zhai's chief you......"

Before the third prince could finish speaking, Ji Jiu interrupted him: "Zheng Rong, have you forgotten the time for the admission interview before?" You were a question after a question that made us almost doubt life...... Don't prevaricate this topic from the teacher, I used to be in the middle of the mountain, I don't remember you clearly. ”

"Moreover, the first person to speak is the least psychologically burdened, because no one can compare with you, and you can take out all your skills first. Besides, according to the age, isn't this also the rule of the teacher's interview? ”

The third prince was speechless by Ji Jiusan's words, and it took a long time before he responded: "Okay, I'll try, don't laugh at me when the time comes...... But I don't think we should do this kind of preparation when the teacher needs someone to substitute for the teacher. In fact, the teaching materials are ready-made, we can preview them in advance, and then take turns to explain them to everyone, and then ask the teacher to come forward if they are not clear. ”

He was still a little stumbling at first, but gradually became fluent, and unconsciously threw out a question that had been haunting his mind these days.

"When my father told me and my fourth brother about Patriarch Ge's "New Compilation of Arithmetic", he was impatient to explain them one by one, but asked us to read the book by ourselves first, and then asked questions, and he answered them one by one. If he doesn't understand it anymore, he will take us to ask Patriarch Ge. I heard that whether it is the other six halls of Guozijian or the major academies in the world, it seems to be like this? ”

"The teacher just gives a general lecture, but the answer to questions depends on whether he trusts the disciples, so most students need to work their own and think for themselves, if they can't figure it out, they have poor understanding?"

"In the past few months that I have been in Guozijian, I have heard that even the Frank Hall did not give lectures every day in the past, because the teachers personally taught in the Banshan Hall and the Jiuzhang Hall every day, which brought them a sense of crisis. However, in the past, Han Changli Gong had an article "The Teacher Said", didn't it say, 'The teacher is also the one who preaches and teaches and solves doubts'? ”

As soon as the third prince said this, some of the students who had never gone to the academy looked at each other, but whether any of them had gone to a private academy, someone shook their heads at the moment.

"This is normal, whether it is a private school or a academy, disciples are admitted to the door, and their studies depend on individuals. If you don't rely on yourself to ask more questions, don't rely on yourself to make more friends, help each other, and make progress together, just one person is diligent in learning, unless you are highly qualified. ”

"But even if you are the kind of person with top qualifications but who is lonely, you study hard and study hard by yourself, and finally pass the exam all the way and get into the Jinshi, in fact, you may not have any great achievements. Because most of the people who have no friends are not welcomed by the division commander, it is often difficult to get along well with their superiors and subordinates in the officialdom. Therefore, even if the ability is outstanding, this kind of person who is steep on the cliff bank often folds quickly. ”

The third prince was stunned. He grew up with the four princes since he was a child, and he was in the royal family, of course, he couldn't say that he had any close friends, but he was later released by his father to go to the half-mountain hall, so that he could finally talk to others.

But the two of them are too different in age from the others, and they can't talk about a common language. Although most of those wealthy and wealthy sons are very good at doing things, and people including Ji Jiu are often courteous to their brothers, but Zhang Shou keeps a close eye on them, and Zhang Chen and Zhu Er, the two fasting chiefs, have also warned many people.

Therefore, the third prince has not been exposed to too many ugly things, and has always believed that excellent people should have a smooth sailing in life. Just like when he studied history with the teachers selected by several emperors, those people told him the examples of famous people in ancient and modern times!

Even if Zhang Shou's lecture in the Banshan Hall is imaginative, even if he has heard of the tragic massacre that finally broke out due to the accumulation of class and group contradictions, it is difficult for the three princes to believe how good a group of Luo Tuo literati who follow the rebellious ministers and thieves can be. Therefore, the capable prevail, and the concept instilled in him by the emperor has always been regarded as a wise saying.

But now someone told him that even if an excellent person finally stands out, if he is too lonely, he will eventually break his wings.

Therefore, at this time, he frowned unacceptably, and then said seriously: "Then don't drill the horns of the bull alone in the future, if there is a problem, everyone will discuss more, make more friends, and don't read dead books alone...... Moreover, the teacher is very good, he is very willing to answer everyone's questions, he is a very good teacher. ”

Hearing the third prince describe him in such a natural tone, even though Zhang Shou had developed a thick skin because of too much praise in the past two years, he still felt a little blushing.

You must know that compared to the teachers who believe in the private school or academy in the third prince, and then let the students understand it on their own, teachers like him are actually lazier, and they have something to throw to the students before, and then give it the name of experience, which is the best example.

From the end of last year to the months before the Chinese New Year, most of the classes in the morning and afternoon every day, and the days when he could only take a day off for ten days were the most diligent period of his two lives.

I want to know, no matter what era the teacher is, I really answer every student's questions...... Where does the time come from, where does the energy come from?

Only Mr. Xixi, who was invited by rich and noble families and only taught one or two children, could barely hold on!

Thinking so in his heart, Zhang Shou finally coughed heavily, and then walked out.

He saw that the room was silent at first, and as Ji Jiu on the stage looked at himself at the door with a shocked expression, the heads in the huge Jiuzhang Hall suddenly turned around, and after seeing that it was him, he brushed back again, Zhang Shou couldn't help but think of the scene when the teacher raided the self-study class in later generations.

He shook his head a little amusedly, and then raised his feet and stepped into the threshold: "Look at this, you have chosen the fasting chief?" ”

Ji Jiu saw Zhang Shou looking at himself with a smile, even if he was elected by everyone today, he couldn't talk about any means, but he still had a little weakness, but fortunately, he immediately suppressed this emotion.

"Teacher, you have never experienced being promoted and being promoted, so I volunteered to stand up and propose that the person who wants to be the chief of the fasting come up and talk about why they want to be the chief of the fast, what they plan to do after becoming the chief of the fast, and how they can help everyone. It happened that Xu Jiancheng from the rope hall came, and Zheng Rong did not participate in the election, so I suggested that Zheng Rong and Xu Jiancheng supervise the voting together. ”

He paused, and his tone had completely calmed down: "After all, the teacher trusts us, and it won't be good if there is fraud. And, since I proposed it first, I was the first to stand up and say what was in my heart. ”

The third prince saw that Zhang Shou had walked to the edge of the podium, and he quickly stood up and said: "That's right, Ji Zhai Chang was the first to say that he wanted to be the chief of Zhai, he said a lot of heartfelt words, I was very moved and inspired by what I heard......"

Zhang Shou felt that it was relatively normal to be very inspired, after all, with the relatively poor experience of the third prince, it would definitely not be difficult for Ji Jiu to fool this kid, but the three princes were very moved by the special emphasis in front, but he was a little confused.

It's just that it's definitely not suitable to ask this kind of topic at this time, so he just nodded at the little guy with a smile.

However, the third prince, who felt encouraged, became more and more confident, and he held his head high and said: "And after Ji Zhaichang, he also encouraged everyone to come up and compete for this fasting chief, because Zhai chief does not mean condescending to discipline other students, but also means a kind of responsibility......"

Hearing that the third prince began to preach the responsibility of the chief of the Zhai for Ji Jiu, Zhang Shou couldn't help but smile at Ji Jiu again, and saw that although he looked at him as calmly as possible, his expression was clearly very nervous, and he knew that this kid who was slippery enough to have dealings with Chu Kuan was definitely the head of the fasting position that he won with three points of truth and seven points of eloquence.

Therefore, without waiting for the third prince to really say everyone's "campaign program", he interrupted with a smile: "Zheng Rong, I met the emperor and your fourth brother in the Xinglong Tea House before, and the emperor said that you can only spend half a day in Jiuzhangtang every day, and you have to go back to the palace for classes the rest of the time, and now that the afternoon has already passed, why don't you go back to the palace?" ”

"I ......"

The third prince didn't expect Zhang Shou to throw out this question that he had never wanted to ask, and his face suddenly changed, and after he spit out the word "I", he couldn't say anything. He seemed to feel that everyone else around him was looking at him in surprise, surprised that he was different from others, and then he felt ashamed of himself when he insisted that others would call him by his name.

"You said before, I hope that my classmates and I will call your name Zheng Rong, and I did so, and looking at Ji Jiulang's meaning, others should have done the same, but I hope you can understand one thing, birth is innate, there is no need to avoid it, everyone calls the three princes, of course, it is to respect your origin, but it is also to respect the emperor can make the world peaceful and prosperous."

"So, don't feel that people can't accept that you are different from others."

Seeing that the third prince's somewhat gloomy eyes just now gradually recovered, Zhang Shou smiled and said: "Facing up to the difference between yourself and others, instead of forcing the same, is also a sign of growth." Okay, although it's late today, it's not too late for you to return to the palace now. Remember to tell the emperor all the things you didn't say about choosing the fasting chief. ”

"Good!" The third prince nodded heavily, and then began to pack up the textbooks he brought, and finally, he respectfully bowed to Zhang Shou, and then bowed his hand to the others one by one, and then said, "Teacher, everyone, then I will go back to the palace first, see you tomorrow, farewell!" ”

Seeing the three princes hurriedly go back, Zhang Shou glanced at the others, and saw that most of the people looked as usual, and he was quite satisfied.

"What I said to Zheng Rong just now is actually what I said to you. Among you, there are the children of officials and eunuchs like Ji Jiu, there are businessmen, there are poor scholars, there are account disciples, and there are ordinary people who are just good at arithmetic since childhood. ”

"Everyone has different backgrounds, and their future will definitely be different, but now they are all sitting here. If we fail to face up to these differences, if we fail to seek common ground while reserving differences, then all kinds of disputes will surely arise in the future. ”

"So, I want you to take a good look at those second-year brothers, not only have they done remarkably well this year, but there has never been anything unpleasant between classmates from beginning to end, so it's best for you to learn from them. There are dark and treacherous corners everywhere in this world, but in this hard-won school, this kind of deception is as little as possible. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Shou didn't look at Ji Jiu's expression at this time, and said directly: "In the morning, I asked you to choose the chief of fasting, and then I will do one more thing, that is, grouping." This time, a total of thirty-two people were admitted, so eight people were in a group, and they were divided into four groups in total. However, this time it is not a free grouping, but ...... Lottery. Zheng Rong is not here, I will replace him. ”

"Such a grouping will continue until you leave the Nine Chapters Hall."
