Chapter 103: Civil and Martial Arts Education and Chunlei Academy
After Yan Kui "paid a lot of money" to buy his fat nephew to reveal information to Chen, Chen and Yan Hua seemed to have changed their temperament, and Yan Kui, who was no longer arrested, let him go on a blind date, but frequently went shopping on the street.
I especially like to buy tofu, which caused the chef of Yanfu to have a headache when he saw tofu during this time.
Chen's sister-in-law's private plan, Yan Kui generally knew it, but he didn't care, if Huang Weier couldn't even pass the mother-in-law level, no matter how much he liked her, it would be impossible for him to marry her and enter the door, at least the position of wife could not be given to her.
Otherwise, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will not like each other, and they will fan the flames for him in the back every day, and Yan Kui will not want to do anything.
sent the Chen family to toss Huang Wei'er, and a shameless person could finally relax in Yanfu for a few days, but the good times didn't last long, the old lady stopped torturing him, and the old man found him a problem again.
Yan's father wanted Yan Kui to get Yan Jiang to study at Chunlei Academy.........
Yan Kui looked at his father Yan Changlin, who was firm and even a little nonsense, no matter how mature his heart was, he couldn't help but feel a little irritable and impatient for the other party's repeated eccentricity.
…………
Here I want to explain the specific situation of the education and training of the younger generations in the three countries.
In today's troubled times of the Three Kingdoms, although the military generals responsible for the conquest and crusade and defense of the territory have a very high status, they still rely on the contribution of those civil officials to deal with political affairs and govern the locality, so the status of civil officials is not much worse than that of military attachés.
Even because of the military generals' military power, the royal family often deliberately promoted the status of civilian officials out of taboo to suppress and balance the military generals with military power.
Therefore, in this context, although there are wars and chaos every year, the territory of the Three Kingdoms is prosperous in literature and Taoism, and the imperial examination is prosperous.
Most of the civil officials in the imperial court were born in the imperial examination, and ordinary people will also tend to their children to learn literature when they are cultivating their descendants, expecting that the future generations will be able to fight for fame in the imperial examination.
It is precisely because of this that there is a very interesting phenomenon in the cultivation of future generations among the people of the three kingdoms of the world.
Needless to say, the people at the bottom can't eat enough, and they don't have money to train the next generation, and the young descendants want to make themselves rich, so they have no way except to enlist in the army and fight the battlefield.
However, for relatively wealthy families, the principle of cultivating the next generation is more to let children learn literature, and there are three main reasons.
First, if you don't want your child to be cannon fodder for the charge, you have to practice martial arts, boil your muscles, and then learn the art of war.
Compared with this, although the cost of learning literature is not small, it is definitely more cost-effective than taking the road of martial arts.
Second, the issue of upward channels and stability maintenance.
Military generals, military discipline is strict, and if you want to go up, in addition to your qualifications, you are backing your military merits, but how can you win a battle so easily, and you may not be able to mix it up for eight hundred years.
Even if you are lucky, capable, and have won a few battles, you have to be promoted and knighted, but a defeat may put all the hard work you have worked hard for most of your life into it, and there will be too many ups and downs.
In comparison, although civil officials are not necessarily much safer than military generals, they at least have controllability over their own future.
But the generals can't do it, if you lose the battle, you won't be able to run, unless you surrender to the enemy country, but in this way, your reputation and the children in your family don't want it.
The last and most critical one, the military general is going to go to the battlefield, the general will inevitably die immediately, who dares to guarantee that his descendants will not die on the battlefield, and who is willing to go to the battlefield to face the rain of swords, guns and arrows.
In the same way, the dancing and writing are inked, and the civil officials in the rear do not say anything else, at least the security is several levels higher than that of the generals.
……………
It is for these reasons that the people, including those wealthy families, nobles, and eunuchs, are inclined to learn literature from their descendants.
Even in those families of military generals, there are many people who change their ways, and a small number of people from the descendants of their children and grandchildren come to learn literature, in addition to giving their families one more way to the future, there is also a psychology that is to leave their own pulse and incense.
The military general's family died in battle, and the tragedy of the whole family cutting off the incense is not unprecedented.
People are selfish, and it is one thing to be loyal to the country, but their own blood cannot be extinguished, so many military generals will specifically pick out outstanding talents among the descendants to inherit the family business and enlist in the army, and the rest of the mediocre and ordinary people will follow literature and business, just in case.
Here, we don't discuss the folk culture of worshipping literature and suppressing martial arts, right, I said so much earlier, just to explain why the status of the imperial examination is still so high in the conquest of the three kingdoms under heaven.
At the same time, it also leads to what Chunlei Academy is.
According to the above introduction, the people of the Three Kingdoms promoted literature and attached great importance to the imperial examination, so many academies came into being that specialized in teaching students the way of the imperial examination.
Chunlei Academy is one of the three most famous academies in the Northern Jin Dynasty and the first of the academies in Yongzhou.
The students who came out of this, the top high school jinshi, the first champion of the Northern Jin Dynasty in the past years, there must be a student from Chunlei Academy on the list every two sessions, the most powerful one, Chunlei Academy won the champion for three consecutive years, and by the way, there is a tanhua, a list.
In addition to the top students, the quality of ordinary students in Chunlei Academy is not bad, and the lowest in the grades is also a lifter, even if the students at the bottom of the academy can also be famous.
In addition to the results of the imperial examination, Chunlei Academy is more interested in the connections between students.
As the saying goes, there are four big irons in life, and one of them has been together with the window, and if your classmates are developed in the future, they can not pull you, you pull him, he pulls you, and this slowly forms a small group of officialdom.
It's nothing for the students of the same class to hug each other, but with the seniors of the previous class and the juniors below, the strength of hugging each other is considerable.
Of course, things are definitely not so simple, not all the students who come out of a college are united, and there are a lot of dirt with each other, plus each has its own township party and teacher, and people may not be desperate to mix in the Chunlei family.
And more importantly, Chunlei Academy is not the only seedling, the other two major academies also have their own student factions, and there are many contradictions between the three academies, and they are so mixed with each other, the real influence of the Chunlei faction in the imperial court is not as great as imagined.
Of course, that's what I said, but Chunlei Academy, as the foundation of the three major academies, is there, and there are countless protégés, and everyone has to sell face, so although it will not affect the court situation, everyone has to look up to it wherever Chunlei's students go.
It can be said that Chunlei Academy and the other two major academies have a status equivalent to Qingbei in the Northern Jin Dynasty, and even higher than Qingbei, after all, the students in Qingbei are also engaged in other industries, but most of the Chunlei students are engaged in politics.
In the feudal dynasty, who has the influence of being an official is greater.
…………
Chunlei Academy is so powerful, thinking with your toes, you can also think of the strictness of its enrollment, it can be said that in the Northern Jin Dynasty, except for the royal family and the top few families, people who can stuff people into the academy can be counted with one hand and fingers.
Yan Kui, a six-grade petty official, is definitely impossible to be among these people, and in the same way, he doesn't know the "big man" who can stuff Yan Jiang in.
Moreover, not to mention that Yan Kui, the person who directly stuffed Yan Jiang in, didn't know it, that is, Yan Kui wanted Yan Jiang to take the exam with his ability, but there was no way to get this exam qualification.
The qualifications for the entrance examination of Chunlei Academy are either either arranged by the local government to arrange for outstanding students in the territory to go to the examination, or if it is not recommended by a qualified Confucian scholar, the rest is influenced by power.
Of these three, Yan Kui can't stand any of them.
The only possibility is that the government signed up for it, and Yan Kui also died after asking Xu Yu.
The number of places in local governments is limited, and the minimum registration condition is to have a talent and fame.
Not to mention that Yan Jiang is a child, he is not qualified to sign up at all, even if he is a showman, with Yan Kui's current qualifications and status, it is difficult to say that he can win the quota in Tong'an Mansion.
You must know that there are only ten official quotas a year for hundreds of thousands of households in Tong'an Mansion, and every year for these quotas, countless large official eunuchs are about to hit their brains.
That's it, these ten places are not all allowed to enter Chunlei Academy, and the annual admission rate is a little more than half, sometimes not even half.
Spending money, working hard, and favoring favors, desperately grabbing a place may not be able to get in.
Yan Kui hurts to think about it, he has a bunch of military affairs, how can he have the leisure to do this, not to mention that Yan Jiang is not qualified to be shortlisted at all.
…………
So, Yan Kui rejected the matter with Yan Changlin, he thought that after seeing the difficulty of this matter, Father Yan would understand his distress, and then give up this unrealistic fantasy.
But he didn't want Yan Changlin to ignore Yan Kui's explanation at all, and accused him of being out of his own life but not bringing his brother, Balabala, almost arrogantly asked Yan Kui to find a way for him to get Yan Jiang into Chunlei Academy.
Yan's father wants to oppress people with filial piety, but he doesn't want Yan Kui to have a temper.
Yan Kui was reborn in a lifetime, although he also retains family affection for his family in this life, but after all, these feelings accepted by adults are relatively much more rational.
Chen's maternal love is fiery and selfless, and Yan Zhen and Yan Xiong's two brothers, brothers and brothers, let them move Yan Kui with their true feelings, so that Yan Kui truly treats them as relatives from the heart.
In contrast, although Yan's father Yan Kui is also good, Yan Kui also respects Yan's father, but because of Yan's father's eccentric behavior at some times, there is always a gap between father and son.
Perhaps, Yan Kui, who has adult reason, understands Yan Changlin's guilt towards Yan Jiang, but it does not mean that he approves of his approach.
Since childhood, Yan's father has been partial to Yan Jiang, Chen and Yan Xiong are both dissatisfied, and even Yan Zhen of Honest Muna has some complaints, but Yan Kui has never expressed it, but not saying it doesn't mean that he doesn't take this matter to heart.
Therefore, this is also the reason why Yan Kui's feelings for Yan's father are always inferior to that of his mother Chen and two brothers.
If Yan's father discussed with Yan Kui in a good voice, out of more than 20 years of father-son relationship, Yan Kui was unwilling to do so, and he would help out out of affection, but Yan's father forced Yan Kui, which really aroused his rebellious psychology, not only did his perception of his father drop another level, but Yan Kui also became angry with his cousin Yan Jiang for the first time.
The three brothers of the Yan family, Yan Zhen is useless in both personality and means, Yan Xiong is still young, and his temperament is jumpy, and he can't help Yan Kui in a short time.
Therefore, Yan Kui originally planned to focus on cultivating Yan Jiang, a cousin, to help himself, after all, his own family, use it at ease.
But now, because of Yan's father's tossing, Yan Kui extinguished this idea, and he would rather use outsiders than Yan Jiang, the "thorn in the head" with his own backers behind him.
Okay, with Yan's father's morality, Yan Kui scolded him seriously, and scolded Yan Jiang a few times, Yan's father had to have an opinion, and if he didn't do it, he had to kill him to teach him a theoretical lesson.
Forget it, let's find an "honest man" myself, Yan Jiang should stay in front of the old man and make him happy............
That night, Yan Kui and Yan's father broke up unhappily, and the next day Yan Kui packed up and left Yan's mansion to live in the barracks, and the next night, Yan Kui received news from his third brother Yan Xiong.
Father Yan was angry with him and went on a hunger strike.........
