The official school is not far from the county government.

As Li Dongsheng imagined, the official school was to renovate a house that had no owner because of the war, and then allocated it to the official school. A very small face, with the word "official school" written on it, Li Dong got off the horse, looked up and saw these two words, and before he could speak, Gao Jian came up and said, "This is the inscription of Lord Assassin Shi, which represents the state's emphasis on official learning." ”

Gao Jian also came with Li Dongsheng, and he had an idea in his heart to see if he could let Li Dongsheng teach his son. Li Dongsheng is a jinshi, and he also took the first place in the exam, if there is such a famous teacher to guide him, his results should improve by leaps and bounds. So he didn't care about face, and personally brought Li Dongsheng here.

The official school is very deserted, and it is not to Li Dongsheng's expectations, the courtyard is not big, and it is not as good as a few tenths of the Guozijian. Now it is class time, there is no one in the courtyard, Gao Jian introduced, "My lord, due to the limited conditions, there is only one teacher, and there are not many students, only a dozen. ”

People in this era are eager for knowledge and learning, the Tang Dynasty has only been established for more than ten years, and now is the period of great development of the founding of the country, and there are many opportunities. The long-term war at the end of the Sui Dynasty brought heavy damage to the world, including the loss of a large number of people, the abandonment of arable land, the destruction of culture and books, how many famous books and books were destroyed in the war, and there was also a fault in the inheritance of knowledge. After Li Shimin's Xuanwumen Revolution ascended to the throne, with the efforts of a group of famous ministers, the official and private schools were set up, and the cultural revival is gradually emerging, but learning is still a very expensive thing, many things can not be done by administrative orders, and students are not cultivated in a day or two.

The common people were eager to learn knowledge, but Li Dongsheng only saw a few people sitting in the classroom through the window, and there were less than ten children from a county town who came to study in the official school.

It is a very strange phenomenon, Li Dongsheng is very puzzled. Gao Jian saw it, "My lord, the main reason is that the people of Ye County are too poor, although the tuition fee is subsidized, but buying pen, ink, paper and inkstone is also a big expense, and many people can't afford it." ”

The classroom was the largest room in the house, which was slightly dilapidated, with more than 30 tables and chairs in the room, but less than half of the people were seated.

The teacher standing in front of the stage was a sloppy middle-aged man, and when he saw a group of people surrounding Li Dongsheng, he knew that a big leader was coming. Hurriedly stepped forward to introduce himself, "Meet the adults, the villain Liu Yushan, is a teacher of government schools, excuse me." ”

Gao Jian is still a little familiar with this Liu Yushan, his son goes to school here, and hurriedly introduced, "This is our parent official, Master Li." ”

"Xiao Li Tanhua?" Liu Yushan's dull expression immediately became vivid, "Seeing my lord, I have heard of the name for a long time, and I am fortunate to see it today, and I am overjoyed." Flash"

Li Dongsheng looked at this Liu Yushan, and saw that he was in his thirties, short and chubby, with his hair tied messily on the top of his head, his face didn't seem to have washed his face, and there was eye feces in the corners of his eyes, and there was ash on his beard, not to mention his clothes, and there were stains everywhere.

twitching the corners of his mouth, Li Dongsheng squeezed out a smile and said, "Teacher Liu has worked hard. ”

Liu Yushan was very kind, standing at the door, with a smile on his face, he introduced, "This county official school was established in the first year of Zhenguan, and it is extremely concerned by the emperor. Told Li Dongsheng about the history of the college, and Li Dongsheng, who listened to a set of official dialects, was sick to his stomach, and it turned out that official dialects have existed since ancient times.

Gao Jian saw Li Dongsheng's unhappiness, and hurriedly played a round, "My lord, since you are here, why don't you give the students a lesson and encourage their desire to learn, with a Jinshi like you to teach them, I believe they will have a deep memory and will never forget, maybe in a few years they will be a Jinshi again." ”

The people around him laughed and agreed, and Li Dongsheng had no choice but to say, "I have done it as a student, but the teacher is really the first time, let me try it." ”

When they entered the classroom, the students were already impatient. Seeing the crowd coming in, it quieted down. Li Dongsheng walked to the podium, "Introduce yourself, the official's surname is Li, his name is Dongsheng, Zhenguan has been a jinshi for four years, and the emperor has been named Xiao Li Tanhua. Now it is the county order of Ye County. ”

The students below immediately opened the pot when they heard Li Dongsheng's introduction. "Really?"

"You are Xiao Li Tanhua?"

"Is there such a young jinshi?"

Gao Jian glanced at a young guy, and the little guy stood up with a smile, "Master Li, student Gao Jin, I heard that adults are peerless in poetry, and there are classic poems in the blink of an eye. ”

Li Dongsheng squinted his eyes and looked at whether this student would finish speaking, took out a piece of chocolate from his sleeve and put it in his mouth, Gao Jin is really used for such a domineering name, and glanced at Gao Jian, the latter looked embarrassed, his son gave the county order a question, if it really can't be done, Li Dongsheng's reputation will stink.

"Poetry, little meaning." Li Dongsheng smiled: "Can anyone tell me what's the use of reading?" ”

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone present immediately fell silent. Yes, what's the use of reading? Everyone said that only by studying can they become officials, and everyone thought about studying and taking the Jinshi examination, and if they won the Jinshi and had an official body, they would not have to worry about it for the rest of their lives. But you can't say this in front of people, you can only say a few words secretly for the sake of literacy and etiquette.

"Look at you, you don't even dare to tell the truth, what do you say?" Li Dongsheng encouraged: "This dynasty will not be punished for words, you can say it with confidence." ”

They are all country students, you look at me, I look at you. It's just that no one dares to speak boldly with confidence. The scene was a little awkward. Li Dongsheng laughed at himself, "It seems that this official has just arrived, and he has no prestige yet." Ha ha. ”

"Since you don't want to say it, then the official will give you a poem, hoping that you can read it carefully and achieve every goal in the book." Liu Yushan hurriedly took out the four treasures of the study, and quickly sharpened the ink, Li Dongsheng stepped forward, the brush was stained with ink, and the pen walked and wrote in one breath that the rich do not need to buy good land, and there are thousands of bells in the book.

There is no need to raise a hall to live in peace, and there is a golden house in the book.

There is no need to hate when you go out without a car, there are many horses in the book.

There is no need to hate a wife without a matchmaker, there is a woman in the book who is like jade.

The boy wanted to fulfill his life's ambition and read the Six Classics to the window diligently.

Gao Jian looked at Li Dongsheng's handwritten persuasion poem, and had mixed feelings: "My lord, this poem writes the most representative harvest after the title of the gold list once became popular, and it points directly to the hearts of the people, which can be described as a pearl." ”

Liu Yushan also praised: "The enlightenment given to us between the lines of the adult's poems is that studying to gain fame is an excellent way out of life." He turned to the students and said, "Master Li has written out all the benefits after winning the Jinshi, and it is up to you whether you study or not." I hope you can live up to the high expectations of Li County's order, study hard, and strive to be admitted to the Jinshi. ”
