The layout of the rooms in the school palace is basically the same, Zhu Yijun's rooms are all the same, saying that he went to see Zhang Jianxiu's room, but in fact, Zhu Yijun just wanted to talk to Zhang Jianxiu. Zhu Yijun attaches great importance to Zhang Jianxiu, who makes the family Zhang Juzheng's son.

Zhang Jianxiu is a little restrained, after all, he is facing the emperor!

After listening to Zhu Yijun's words, Zhang Jianxiu nodded, he hadn't recovered from the previous division of rooms. Before coming here, Zhang Juzheng told Zhang Jianxiu to have more contact and influence, but he was a little unaccustomed to living together.

"Jian Xiu, what do you study at home?" After entering the room, Zhu Yijun sat on the chair with a smile, and saw Zhang Jianxiu standing next to him with low eyebrows, Zhu Yijun said helplessly: "Sit down and talk." ”

"We're going to be classmates here for a long time in the future, didn't I say it, in the School Palace, let's only talk about the friendship of classmates."

That being said, who would dare to do that!

Although he slandered in his heart, Zhang Jianxiu still nodded and sat down: "After enlightenment, I learned four books and governed "Spring and Autumn". ”

Zhu Yijun nodded, of course he knew that this was for the preparation of the imperial examination, the four books were compulsory, and one of the five classics was called Zhixue. Zhang Jian's cultivation of the Spring and Autumn Period is similar to the "Spring and Autumn" in the Five Classics of Elective Studies in later generations.

After thinking about it, Zhu Yijun nodded and said, "Can you dabble in the six arts?" ”

The children of Confucianism and the six arts of a gentleman are etiquette, music, archery, royalty, calligraphy, and mathematics.

In the six arts of the gentleman, it goes without saying that etiquette is archery, and the royal is driving a carriage, and it was a chariot when there was a war in the past, so it was necessary to drive a carriage. Confucianism also pays attention to the all-round development of literary style, but now most of the scholars are deserted.

In the Han and Tang dynasties, Confucianism still paid attention to the appearance of generals and generals, which means that if the dynasty can be a good minister, and the dynasty can be a good general.

It's just that in the Song Dynasty, Cheng Zhu Lixue flourished, and the civil officials suppressed the generals, and the scholars got up all of a sudden, and there was no talk of generals entering the prime minister, after all, the status of the generals was too low, and they were directly stepped into the mud.

Now there is no chariot, and the royal has become a horseback ride, and now there are not many Confucian scholars who can ride horses, and most of them are sitting in sedan chairs.

In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, they were still riding horses or riding carriages, and it was not advisable to use people as animals. Needless to say, calligraphy is not a good word, and there is no drama in the imperial examination.

Zhu Yijun mentioned the six arts of the gentleman, the focus is naturally on numbers, compared to the four books and five classics, mathematics is the king.

However, Zhu Yijun's question made Zhang Jianxiu a little embarrassed, hesitated for a moment, and said: "I have learned a little, but it is a little shallow." ”

Zhu Yijun naturally didn't believe it, and he didn't have any hope, so he said with a smile: "Let's learn the palace, what we teach is the six arts of a gentleman, and we can learn it slowly in the future." In the next few days, there will be a mapping test here. ”

"Exam?" Zhang Jianxiu was stunned, what the hell is this exam?

"It's always important to understand what everyone has learned, whether it's appropriate to teach them according to their aptitude." Zhu Yijun didn't plan to talk much about this issue, and looked out, Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "Let's go, change clothes, it's time to eat." ”

Zhang Jianxiu naturally didn't dare to object, and sent Zhu Yijun away and went back to change clothes.

The cafeteria was set up in the courtyard at the back, and when Zhu Yijun and Zhang Jianxiu arrived, the others had already arrived. What were the three of them talking about, and when they saw Zhu Yijun coming in, they hurriedly stood up and saluted.

Looking at these people who were all wearing the same clothes, Zhu Yijun smiled and said, "Okay, let's be exempt!" Didn't I say it, in the school palace, I am just classmates with you, and I am not allowed to salute in the future. ”

After listening to Zhu Yijun's words, although everyone got up, no one dared to sit down.

Zhu Yijun naturally couldn't ask them like the universities of later generations, and there was still respect that they deserved, so he said with a smile: "Sit down!" ”

Glancing at Zhang Cheng behind him, Zhu Yijun waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's eat!" ”

Zhang Cheng agreed, and reached out to greet the eunuch and the maid for dinner.

The meals are very simple, four dishes and one soup, two meat and two vegetables. Of course, it just looks simple, and with the cooking of the imperial kitchen, it is naturally very delicious. This is the first meal, and there will be more styles to come, so you can take it as you like.

In the next few days, there was a thorough examination on the side of the school palace.

In fact, Zhu Yijun also understands that these little guys basically learn the same thing. They all know how to read and write, and they are simply enlightened, some of them are better, and they have learned four books, and some of them have just started to learn the Analects.

But Zhu Yijun doesn't care about this, it's good to be literate, there is no need to teach literacy, and it saves a lot of effort.

Zhu Yijun was busy with the affairs of the palace, and the court was also stabilized, but there was another thing, that is, to give the queen mother the honorific title. Now that the emperor is also stable, this matter naturally has to be put on the agenda.

The Ministry of Rites naturally followed the rules and gave the Chen family the title of Empress Dowager.

This is according to the rules, naturally there is nothing to say, but if this is the case, then it will be good.

But everyone knows that although Empress Chen is the mother-in-law, she is not the emperor's biological mother. My mother-in-law has a honorific title, what should I do with my biological mother? The palace has long been in the palace to spread the news that he wants to give the Li family the title of honor.

Feng Bao and other eunuchs also advocated vigorously, this was an opportunity to curry favor with the Li family.

There was a miasma of noise in the court, there was a lot of opposition, and there were some who supported it.

In the private room on the second floor of the Beijing Fude Building, two people are meeting. These two people are actually a pair of brothers, there are so many brothers in this world, but these two brothers are extraordinary, and they are prominent figures in the entire capital.

Sitting on the left side of the table was Xu Jue, the chief of Dongchang, who was the confidant of Feng Bao, the most powerful eunuch in the dynasty.

On the right side is a middle-aged man, with a mustache, wearing a pale cyan gown, wearing a square scarf, playing with a teacup in his hand at this time, drinking slowly, this person is Zhang Juzheng's housekeeper You Qi.

Xu Jue and You Qi are brothers, who just got married yesterday and burned yellow paper.

"Big brother, I brought my godfather's words." Putting down the teacup in his hand, Xu Jue said with a smile: "Godfather said, the queen mother's title must be on it, and the emperor's biological mother will not be happy if she doesn't have the queen mother's honorific title." ”

You Qi also put down the teacup in his hand and said with a smile: "Please rest assured that Grandpa Feng will tell my grandfather about this matter." ”

"That's for the best!" Xu Jue also smiled, he knew that You Qi said this, and this matter was basically the same.

After leaving the Fude Building, the two of them went back to their respective lives, and as the representatives of Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao, they were responsible for communication. Although this communication was at first, it seemed smooth from the first time.
