In front of a low red table, there are several incense burners, emitting a faint smoke of agarwood.

Yang Lin sat at the table with a smile, and there were more than a dozen Tai students dressed in Confucian costumes standing in front of him, all of whom were Tai students with innocent family backgrounds and good morals that Yang Lin had investigated.

One of them is Wu Min, who took the lead in proposing apprenticeship on the pulpit that day, Cai Jingjizi Cai Juan, Di Dao Ma Kuo, Guangdu Yuwen Xuzhong, and Kaifeng Yuan Tingzhi.

These people are all knowledgeable, and they all have great respect for Yang Lin, especially Cai Jing's Jizi Cai Xuan, for fear that Yang Lin will not allow it, and even begged Cai Jing to bring him to apprentice.

Cai Jing's eldest son, Cai You, can be pushed to Liang Shicheng by him, Liang Shicheng and Cai Jing have been opponents from the beginning, and they can accept his son, not to mention Yang Lin, who has a relationship with him.

Yang Lin also happily agreed, Cai Jing's talent and character are actually not bad, and he is also top-notch in Taixue, not like the Water Margin said, Cai's family is the kind of evil official in the fish and meat township and has no ink on his chest.

Behind them, there was Mei Daochang and a group of little Taoist children, watching the ceremony from the sidelines.

The little Taoist priests looked very cute, sitting on the futon, watching their uncle and ancestor accept apprentices, anyone who saw it had to praise their well-behaved, except for the owners of the houses that were forcibly demolished by Yang Lin with them...

These little Taoist priests, scolding people, are very good...

When the hour came, the first batch of disciples consisted of a total of five people, each carrying a bunch of "bunch", that is, a bunch of dried meat, also known as dried meat, which was somewhat similar to the current bacon.

After sending the bundle, the five people bowed respectfully to Yang Lin, and bowed to Yang Lin, and bowed to the students. ”

Yang Lin smiled lightly and asked people to bring out four treasures and five sets of the study room and give them to each student.

The five people sat at two rows of small tables and listened to Yang Lin's lectures, and Yang Lin was also a little nervous about accepting apprentices for the first time, which was different from the kind of rotten street apprentices in later generations, and for the ancients, this was equivalent to a few more relatives.

"Di Zi Gui" is an enlightenment reading for everyone to read and learn, and it can also be seen that the ancients attached great importance to apprenticeship.

"You worship me as a teacher today, and from now on, you will follow me as a teacher to study knowledge and learn from things.

You are all too students, and you are bound to become officials in the future, and you should know that it is ten times more difficult for people to work in official careers than when they retreat to the mountains and forests.

The world is full of knowledge, and the practice of human feelings is the article. The way to study this discipline is to study everything and everything, not to memorize the writings of the saints. ”

"Follow the teachings of your teacher."

Yang Lin nodded, and said in a condensed voice: "Today's entry, as a teacher, I ask you, why do you study?" ”

Wu Min reacted the fastest, his eyes widened, and he said loudly: "Back to my teacher, I studied to learn the way of a saint and serve the court." ”

Yuwen Xuzhong agreed, and then said: "Reading is self-cultivation, and only by entering the government can you govern the country and level the world." ”

"Mr. Zihou Youyun: Reading is to establish a heart for heaven and earth, a life for the people, a continuation of learning for the saints, and peace for all generations." Cai Qian agreed with the opinions of the senior brothers and echoed loudly.

Yang Lin waved his hand, stood up, and said with a smile behind his back: "In my opinion, studying is for transcendent sanctification." ”

When several disciples heard this point of view again, they were all very excited, and they craned their necks and waited for Yang Lin to continue.

Can these people become saints themselves?

A few days ago, at the Taixue Forum, Yang Lin's sentence "The saint has never been high, and everyone has never been low, abide by the original heart, and everyone can become a saint." ”

It's like throwing a boulder at a calm lake, stirring up huge waves.

Cai Qian stood up, leaned forward, and asked with a blood-red face that was at the peak of excitement, "Teacher, how should we ordinary people become holy?" ”

Yang Lin said with a smile: "I have four sentences for you, and after I understand it, I will be a member of the Yang family." ”

After speaking, he walked to the wall and wrote: "Hungry to eat, tired to sleep, only to practice more mysterious." said that he didn't believe in the world, but he looked for immortals from outside his body. ”

Mei Daochang realized something, shook the dust, and sighed: "Uncle Shi is a profound Confucianism and Taoism, and he has already understood it, and sure enough, the top of the avenue is connected?" ”

After Yang Lin finished writing, he said with a smile: "From now on, you don't have to go to study every day, just go to Zhaode Fang to study and study, and I have to come to lecture in my spare time." ”

Cai Qian is okay, several other people are embarrassed, if you can't be evaluated in the Taixue exam, how can you get in? But since the teacher has a life, he has to grit his teeth and agree to it.

Yang Lin saw the hesitation of the disciples, and said with a smile: "Taixue over there, you have your own teacher to say, you don't have to care." If your family is in other places, you can live in the outer courtyard of Zhaodefang, and I will find someone to clean up a few yards for you. It's just that I can say that there are many warriors in this outer court, and you must not despise them, but you must treat them politely. ”

The current literati despise military attachés, almost carved from their bones, and Yang Lin has to find a way to correct it from his own disciples.

Yang Lin gave an order and asked Yang San to take them to the outer courtyard, only to see that it was like a downtown area.

In the outer courtyard of Yang Lin Zhaode Fang, all kinds of talents are gathered, and his nephew Xu Shuwei, who gave up his official position to practice medicine, was also pulled over by him, as well as his friends...

These people include mathematicians, geologists, carpenters, blacksmiths, veterinarians... I don't know why we can smell like each other and make friends with each other.

The house in Bianliang is expensive, and there is such a good thing falling from the sky, no one will refuse, only Uncle Xu has a lot of complaints, he originally planned to return to his hometown to live and study medicine.

Yang Lin only used one sentence to let this thorn who resigned from the government to study medicine obediently stay: Can you afford to buy so many medicinal materials for research?

Wu Min secretly said that there was really everyone in his teacher's family.

Seeing that the yard was cleaned up, all of them were clean and tidy, but the furniture was all precious wood, which opened the eyes of these scholars.

If the outer court is like this, what should the inner court look like?

---

In the inner courtyard of Zhaodefang, Yang Lin lay down on the soft collapse, and said with a long sigh of relief: "It's really fucking tiring to hold the teacher's shelf." ”

Yin Qianqian next to him served tea, pursed his lips and smiled: "Da Lang, the days of holding the shelf in the future are still long, I really don't know what you look like when you are serious, next time I pretend to be a man, can I go to audit?" ”

The tea was mixed with honey, which was slightly hot, so that Yang Lin, who had been talking for a day, drank it to moisten his throat.

Yang Lin sat on the bed, drank hot tea and exhaled comfortably: "According to what I said, I will start to work harder, pretending to be pretended, and I will get used to it." Promote a narrow and petty lewd woman, what are you pretending to be a student to make a fuss, huh..."

A bold idea came to Yang Lin's mind, squinting at Yin Qian's delicate posture, looking back and forth.
