The sun fell on the courtyard, and the shadows of the trees swayed.

This is a small patio, similar to the building of the Jiangnan water town, even in this hot season, there is a special quiet.

The Guanzhong Plain is a typical northern climate, not humid, very dry, so, although the temperature outside the house is very high, although the sun is very hot, as long as you don't stand under the sun, a little shaded place, it will not be too hot, if there is a trace of cool breeze, it will be better, it will not be like in Shuzhong, too humid climate, it will also look very stuffy, no matter in the sun, or in the shadows, a little movement, sweat.

The school is right next to the patio.

The building in the Sword Palace is divided into two parts, the literature classes are basically in such a Jiangnan building, the green trees are shady, the flowers and plants are everywhere, the elegance and tranquility are extraordinarily elegant, the buildings are mostly blue tiles and white walls, there are many windows open on the two walls of the school, the sunlight shines through the leaves and branches, without losing the light, but also with the coolness of green, even if it is swept by the light and shadow, it is not hot.

The sound of reading came out of the window, echoed in the patio, rose up, climbed the branches of the leaves, and swung away with the wind into the distance.

Master Chen sat behind the desk, frowning, his eyes went back and forth in the hall, he was sure that he was not dizzy, there should be thirteen students in this class, but there were twelve.

It's still the old faces, and a new face that should have appeared hasn't appeared.

Chen Fuzi's surname is Chen Anmin, Chen Anmin, No. Chuanshan, and his disciples all call him Mr. Chuanshan.

He is in his early forties this year, three or four years older than Yingzong Du Zhen, at the beginning, Yingzong Du Zhen studied in the Sword Palace as the prince, Chen Anmin is Du Zhen's companion, he is a martial arts Chen family, in martial arts, although the Chen family is not one of the best family valves, but it is also a big family, among them, Chen Anmin's father Chen Ziyun once served as a secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

Chen's father was in the Ministry of Rites, and he was rewarded by Xuanzong for his merits, and he could choose one of his sons to enter the Sword Palace to study.

Although the Chen family is a big family in martial arts, it can only be a second-rate family, and it can't enter the first grade, and the children of the Chen family are not qualified to enter the Sword Palace to study, even if Chen's father is a first-class member, it can't, unless he gets the emperor's special order.

As a disciple of Hengqu, he pays attention to respecting the ancient courtesy, that is to say, loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness, loyalty must come first, so after Chen Chuanshan entered the Sword Palace, he immediately followed the prince Du Zhen at that time.

In the whole Guanzhong, and even the whole world, most of the educational resources are in the hands of the gate valve family, and these gate valve families firmly control these resources and will never be easily taught to the outside world.

Hengqu Academy is an outlier, like the White Deer Academy in Kanto, they are a academy for everyone, focusing on literature, protecting the Tao with martial arts, and paying attention to education without class, whether you are from a big family, or from a poor family, or even a pariah from a poor land, as long as you are willing to learn, as long as you are talented, you will be included in the door.

These two academies were established during the reign of Emperor Taizong.

Taizong was eloquent and strategic, at that time, even all the gate valves in the middle were on the side of the prince, the princess was born in the Jingzhao Gu family, and the princess of Qi who followed the prince came from the Weinan Lin family, at that time, the Guo family was not one of the four major families, at that time, the only few gate valves in Guanzhong who could enter the Yipin family were all surrounded by the prince, silently suppressing Taizong, forcing Taizong to keep shrinking his power.

Yes, Taizong is a great master.

However, Taizu is also a great grandmaster, and those Yipin big families also have great grandmasters, and they are the old monsters hidden in the ancestral temple, plus the Huashan faction also has a sword god, therefore, Taizong launched a palace change at that time, to a certain extent, it was a desperate move, he just played a time difference, and did not give the hostile force group time to react.

When he forced Taizu to not be able to take half a step out of the Taiji Palace, when the crown prince and the king of Qi were ambushed and died, the dust settled.

It is impossible for those gate valve families to avenge Taizong for the dead, so they have to acquiesce to the facts, of course, secretly they are naturally yang and yin, as long as it is unfavorable to their own policies and decrees, they will all boycott it.

In this way, Taizong had to find another way.

He established the academy, paid attention to education and class, and then created the imperial examination system, both rich and poor can participate in the imperial examination, and if they can reach the passing line, they can become officials.

At that time, the children of the family all boycotted the imperial examination system.

After all, the recommendation system has been implemented for thousands of years, which is equivalent to a system tailored for the children of the family lords, once the imperial examination system prevails, it will be troublesome for them to become officials, and they can't rely on a few letters of recommendation to shepherd one side, or live in a temple.

At that time, there were not many people who participated in the imperial examination, and there were only about 100 candidates in the first session once a year.

These candidates are all from the academy established by Taizong in the people, at that time, there were many generals who left the court due to injuries were arranged in the academy by Taizong, take the Hengqu Academy in Guanzhong as an example, the first president was Li Changwei, that was a big man at the grandmaster level, and the former commander of the Xuanjia elite cavalry, so although those gate valve families were dissatisfied with the academy, they could only find trouble in secret, and did not dare to do anything in the open.

In the Tianhou Dynasty, in order to suppress the family of gate valves and promote more talents, the academy was expanded, and it was everywhere in the north and south of the river.

At the same time, the Queen of Heaven also vigorously supported the sect and suppressed the power of the sect lord family in both civil and military ways, so as not to make them too powerful and affect the rule of the dynasty.

During that time, the struggle in the court was very fierce, and there were several bloody conflicts, in the year when the Queen of Heaven was called emperor, there was a great grandmaster with several grandmaster-level characters into the Luoyang Palace, as a result, no one could get out of the palace gate in that battle, at this time, those guys found out that the original Queen of Heaven was also a great grandmaster, not only that, but a general figure beside her was also a great grandmaster.

After that, the queen of heaven launched a bloody crackdown, and two or three of the family gate valves who entered the first product were removed.

Her methods were too bloody and cruel, so that those gate valve families had to choose to hibernate and turn to this woman they looked down on at the beginning, and no longer engage in open confrontation.

During the Tianhou Dynasty, the family of gate lords was suppressed, and half of the officials in the court were from the academy lineage.

At that time, Hengqu Academy in Guanzhong and Bailu Academy in Luoyang were the two most famous academies. These families know how to survive, and if they can't fight, then blend in and subtly gain control.

Of course, they did not surrender completely without resistance.

These gate valves put most of their resources and strength on the Du royal family, and Emperor Shenzong, who was still young at the time, was valued by these gate valves, whether it was financial or material resources, he had everything he wanted. After the death of the queen of the day, the Du royal family counterattacked and killed all the people of the queen of heaven, and those court officials who were born in the academy and not from the family of the gate lords were either killed, or demoted, and exiled to Lingnan or Saiwai.

This is the history book mastered by the gate valve family recorded in the Zhongxing of the Divine Sect, and the people are in the Ying Dynasty.

The result of the counterattack of the gate valve family is that many academies have been sealed, although the imperial examination system exists, but it exists in name only, basically, only the children of the gate valve can benefit from the imperial examination system, even if they are the children of the academy, most of them are from the family.

At that time, many academies were sealed, but Hengqu Academy and Bailu Academy were standing, in addition to the fact that many children of the family studied in it, there was another reason, these two academies had a tradition of guarding the Tao with martial arts, those old masters looked weak, in fact, there were many people who were hidden, just like the legendary Shaolin sweeping monks.

Academies are actually similar to sects.

It's just that the sect is mainly martial, and you can understand a little bit about the scriptures and meanings.

The academy is mainly to learn the scriptures and righteousness, and the martial arts conquest is just a technique and is used to defend the Tao.

For the academy, the Tao is the heavens, it is the meaning of its own existence, in order to maintain its own Tao, gods and Buddhas can be killed, from a certain point of view, like the kind of students who can die for the Tao, and religious fanatics are no different.

Chen Chuanshan is such a defender.

Loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness, this is the way in Mr. Funayama's mind.

So, how can we show this loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness?

There must be some kind of rule, a kind of etiquette!

In Chen Chuanshan's view, respecting teachers is also a kind of etiquette.

He hadn't met Handan Jun Du Rui, but he knew something about this person, but he didn't know too much.

Chen Chuanshan is only loyal to the one on the dragon chair, so he does not participate in the open and secret battles of the princes, for this reason, he has already expressed his attitude, some power groups have also secretly contacted him, and after touching a few soft nails, they will no longer try, of course, whether those guys really gave up in secret, but it is unknown.

You must know that he is one of the Zhongshu Orders of Zhongshu Province, and an important person who wrote an edict to Yingzong, if he can buy his own camp, many things will be much easier.

Zhongshu Province is similar to the Secretariat of the Central Committee in Du Rui's previous life, with high power and heavy responsibilities.

Therefore, even if Chen Chuanshan is facing the princes in the school, he is not pretending, and in private, he will be very respectful to these little princes who are a few years old, guarding the way of monarchs and ministers, so that people have nothing to say. However, in the school, he is the teacher, and the princes are the disciples, and at that time, the identities between each other are reversed, and they must follow the way of teachers and students.

Why didn't you come?

He remembered that this should be Handan-kun's first class.

Can't find your way?

There is no such thing as not being able to find a way, because every prince has an inner servant by his side, and these inner servants have lived in the Sword Palace for so long, it is impossible not to find the way.

There was a bell from afar, melodious and clear.

This is the bell of the lower hall, and the interval between the bells is a little long, and if it is the bell of the upper hall, the interval is a little short, and it is very urgent.

Hearing the bell of the next hall, the young people below were happy, but no one talked to each other, not even the princes, they were very aware of their teacher's temper, if it violated the way of etiquette, staying in the hall was just a small punishment.

His eyes swept over the faces of the students in the hall, Chen Chuanshan stood up, turned around and walked out.

After walking out of the school, there was a burst of laughter behind him.

Chen Chuanshan frowned and walked towards a place, he needed to find the chamberlain who served Handan Jun to understand the situation.
