0007: Grab the disciple
In the Eastern Han Dynasty, students generally had two situations: disciples and protégés. Disciples are not only taught by the master himself, but protégés are generally taught by various disciples, and some even do not learn anything at all, just in name. So many times, it can be seen that although those great Confucians in the world have countless protégés, there are not many real disciples.
Although Huangfu Gui and the others are not considered great Confucians, they are also very famous Confucian scholars. At any time, if any of them wanted to accept a disciple, as long as that person was not stupid, he would definitely bow down and worship directly, but now, the two of them want to accept one person as a disciple at the same time......
"Ran Ming, you are the great Si Nong of the dynasty, although you are now transferred to the general of the Huns, but who knows when you will return to Beijing to resume your post? Ayi is still young, if you go back to Beijing, will you still bring Ayi back to Beijing? Huangfu Gui looked at Zhang Huan with an unkind face and said.
"Wei Ming, I don't agree with what you say, although I may not stay in Bingzhou for a long time, but with Ayi's intelligence, I don't think I need to teach him for too long. And I'm studying under Zhong Weigong, what about you, Wei Ming? Zhang Huan looked at Huangfu Gui with a provocative look and asked.
The Zhongwei Gong in Zhang Huan's mouth was the former imperial lieutenant and the great Confucian in the world. Zhang Huanlian, the great god, is obviously determined to win Li Yizhi.
In one sentence, he immediately made Huangfu Gui so angry that his face was red and his neck was thick, "Hmph! What if you study under Zhong Weigong? In the past, Confucius had 3,000 disciples, but were they all equally powerful? ”
Speaking of which, Huangfu Gui and Zhang Huan have a very good relationship, and 3 years ago, the imperial court originally wanted Huangfu Gui to serve as the general of Duliao, and it was he who recommended Zhang Huan, who was still a Zhonglang general at the time, to replace him. And after Zhang Huan became the general of Duliao, the Huangfu rule was appointed as the general of the Xiongnu. At the beginning of this year, Zhang Huan was promoted to Dasi Nong, and Huangfu Gui was transferred to General Duliao.
It's just that...... In any era, there is a situation where the teacher chooses the apprentice and the apprentice chooses the teacher, the teacher hopes to find a disciple with outstanding talents, and the apprentice hopes to find a master who is a scholar and a celestial. As for the two Huangfu Gui, Li Yi is undoubtedly the one who is worthy of their acceptance as a disciple.
After all, even with the experience of Zhang Huan and Huangfu Gui, they have never seen such a talented and intelligent child as Li Yi, perhaps, only the ancient 12-year-old envoy to Zhao State, was named Shangqing by the then King of Qin, or the ancient prodigy such as Meng Weijun of the former Qi State can be compared, right?
Isn't such a prodigy the best disciple? It doesn't matter if you haven't met it, now that you have met it, not to mention that Huangfu Gui and Zhang Huan are good friends, even if it is father and son, master and apprentice, I am afraid that there will be the idea of fighting.
Looking at the two old men in their 60s in order to accept Li Yi as an apprentice, it seems that the two children are constantly competing and arguing over there, and Li Yan, Guo Hong and others on the side are really crying and laughing. However, Li Yan's expression was quite complicated, and he didn't seem to be very happy about it.
Seeing this, how did Guo Hong and Chen Gu not know Li Yan's thoughts? "Apprenticeship doesn't necessarily have to be a master~ And Ayi is still young, in the future, who knows what will happen?" Guo Hong seemed to sigh and persuade.
For Li Yi, he really didn't want to see him become a hero for a lifetime because of that inexplicable ancestral training. After all, Haoqiang sounds good, but isn't he just a landlord? And although Guo Hong doesn't know how far Li Yi will grow in the future, the so-called three-year-old looks older than seven-year-old, at least in the current situation, Li Yi's future is definitely not bad!
And at this time, the battle between Huangfu Gui and Zhang Huan also reached its climax, well, in fact, none of them could convince anyone, and finally lost the choice to Li Yi.
"Ayi, tell me who you want to worship as a teacher?!" The two looked at Li Yi with a slightly flattering look, and Li Yi wanted to laugh when he saw it. You must know that the two of them, one of them are the general of the Huns and the other is the general of Duliao, they are both real court officials! But now, he is fighting for himself like an old urchin.
But while being funny, Li Yi's heart was also full of emotion of being valued. After all, no matter how smart he was, he was just the son of a landlord. Under normal circumstances, it would be a fantasy for a person like him to want to worship a Confucian scholar like Huangfu Gui and the others as teachers.
"But who to choose?" I have to say that this is definitely a difficult choice for Li Yi. I saw his eyes turning around in front of Huangfu Gui and Zhang Huan, but he couldn't make up his mind for a long time. After a long while, he said with some embarrassment, "Two Ming Princes, the kid really doesn't know how to choose, after all, the knowledge of the two Ming Princes is more than enough to be the master of the kid." ”
Hearing this, Huangfu Gui and Zhang Huan's expressions were a little proud, but then they glared at each other angrily, as if as long as this was the case, they could make the other party withdraw in fear. Well, speaking of which, both are 62 years old this year.
Seeing that the two old naughty boys were preparing to start a new round of war, Li Yi hurriedly persuaded him, "The kid has a proposal, it's better for the two Ming Dukes to pick a subject to teach the kid, and then ......."
"Great idea!" Hearing this, the two didn't wait for Li Yi to finish speaking, so they immediately interrupted Li Yi's words, and then said in unison, "I'll teach you the art of war!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the two of them suddenly began to fight again.
"Ranming, what do you mean by this old boy? Have you forgotten that if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been able to be General Duliao at all? Let's honestly pick other teachings! Huangfu Gui squinted at Zhang Huan, looking like "Lao Tzu is the real famous general".
"Humph! Wei Ming, don't you blush when you say this? If I hadn't returned to Beijing to serve as the Great Si Nong, I wouldn't have dared to intrude on the border if I gave those Hu people a hundred dares! Otherwise, why did the Xiongnu and Wuheng surrender immediately as soon as I came back, and the Xianbei people also strangely retreated to the grassland? Zhang Huan snorted coldly when he heard this.
Well, just now the two of them compared their knowledge, and now they are starting to compare their combat exploits again. There is no way, after Li Yi's words just now, a fool can also see that Li Yi has an absolutely extraordinary talent in the art of war, so whoever teaches him the art of war will definitely win steadily.
After arguing for a long time, the two finally made a decision, that is, no one would teach Li Yi the art of war, but one would choose an ordinary subject to teach.
Well? From this point of view, didn't Li Yi take a big advantage? Didn't the two of them see it? Of course, I can see it, but it is precisely because of this that the two of them are even more imperative to Li Yi. is so smart at a young age, it only needs to be carefully taught, and he will definitely be famous in the world when he grows up. In this way, this process of apprenticeship will be passed down as a good story.
"But that division, it has to be me!" Huangfu Gui and Zhang Huan looked at each other, as if between these two pairs of eyes, two electric lights were squeaking.
