Chapter Ninety-Nine: Let the People Judge!
"Dean? Why is the dean here...... Shixiu, hurry up and stand to the side, and stay away......"
"Impossible, isn't the dean in Taoli Pavilion? And...... We just didn't accept Zhou Han's submission, do it right, sit up straight, what is there to be afraid of! ”
The scholars who were watching the noise in Tingtao Pavilion quickly divided into two groups, one took a few steps back, hung high, and his expression was as dazed as he was, as if he had just entered a place of right and wrong. And people like Di Zhixun who took the lead in standing up, I don't know if it was because there was no way to retreat, or because they were calm-hearted, they threw off their robes, and they really had the taste of a proud and cold soldier!
"Students see the dean!" Many scholars bowed down at the same time.
Although the dean is the identity of the emperor, he has already stated in advance that after entering this medical school, no matter what dignitaries and dignitaries, or the poor sour people who eat in the field.
They are only students and teachers.
Medical school is a place to teach, not a place to compare who is more honorable.
Since the Emperor Taishang, the most noble monarch of the Tang Dynasty, took the lead in setting an example, the atmosphere of the medical school has suddenly improved, and it is more like a place to do learning than the Guozijian of Wubenfang.
Unexpectedly...... The sharpest contradiction between the gate valve of the early Tang dynasty and the scholar of the Han family began to erupt after all, because of the small incident of Zhou Han winning the gold!
If Li Yuan can't handle this matter well, it is conceivable that from now on, if the scholars of the poor family have excellent performance, they will be teased by the rich and wealthy people for cheating on a regular basis, or the examiner will make a mistake in judgment......
"Students, I heard you arguing about Zhou Han from a distance......." Li Yuan glanced at the students around him, there were about thirty or so, but after the students in the distance heard the movement here, they also began to come one after another, but in just a few moments, there were nearly hundreds of students.
He paused and said again, "Are you arguing whether or not you should give a reward to Zhou Han?" ”
At the front were four students with indignant faces, even though there was a little cowardly hesitation in their eyes, they still met the emperor's gaze without any scruples.
Di Zhixon and the other four didn't think they were wrong at all, especially Di Zhixun, who laughed and talked about borrowing Zhou Han's handout this morning, just as an excuse for him to give him food.
Shiqing Shilu's house, the house is full of books, and the bamboo slips from the Western Han Dynasty to the present are not scarce. Do they think that their proud knowledge has been trampled under the feet of a little humble gentleman?
What's more, Di Zhixon knew very well that although Zhou Han was very diligent in reading, his knowledge was undoubtedly much worse than his.
Is it a reward or a punishment?
Li Yuan felt that he was, no, the Royal Academy of Medicine walking at a crossroads. To the left, punishing these children of the family may make the scholars think that the dean is biased in favor of the poor; And to the right, withdraw the reward for Zhou Han, so what prestige does the medical school have from now on?
The root of the contradiction lies in the family and the poor family!
Zhou Han ...... A certain is very optimistic about you, although the book you wrote is not sufficient, but it is sincere, and the knowledge in it is really hard to study, which is ...... Twenty dollars, you deserve it! Li Yuan walked up to Zhou Han's side, patted his shoulder, and a shallow smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Zhou Han's submission is undoubtedly the most "exciting" among the crowd, of course, Li Yuan is not referring to the literary style, but the scientific principle that the content has gradually become close to the sand and gravel to form glass.
Of course, what he wrote is still very immature in terms of the mature scientific theories of later generations, but this point is already very rare, especially "I heard that there is a silkworm room in Wuzhong to throw the sick silkworms into a pot, and there are few paper-like things floating on the water, which can be used for writing, while the paper is made of old fishing nets, firewood, etc., and the natural things used are different, and the paper that is connected is the same......
Therefore, I think that the sand and gravel at the bottom of the shoes can become a thousand gold glass, and there is nothing more than the subtle and interconnected things......"
Zhou Han's proposal of "subtle and interconnected things" really surprised Li Yuan's heart, isn't this an element? He suddenly rose a notch in Li Yuan's heart and became an existence equal to Boer......
Suddenly, he saw the wolf hair broken in half on the ground, and the end of the pen was already half-bald, no wonder the words in the submission were somewhat ink and white.
Li Yuan's heart was slightly touched, and he began to carefully look at Zhou Han a few times, his immature face revealed a bit of maturity that had gone through vicissitudes, his face was a little pale, his blood was insufficient, his teeth bit his upper lip lightly, and a trace of blood stained between his teeth.
He shook his head and sighed in his heart, how could the barrier between the rich and the poor be easily broken?
Di Zhixun and the other four scholars who were standing in front heard the words of the Emperor Taishang, and they immediately exploded like a pot.
This scholar who has entered the Tingtao Pavilion, which one does not study hard?
The children of the poor family can practice the pen and practice the pen bald, are they not the rich children? Wang Xizhigui is the descendant of the Langya Wang family, and he still practices calligraphy to dye the pond water black, which is what makes him three points!
The five clans and seven surnames of the famous ministers and generals in the past dynasties, are they all vain? Don't have any intentions?
This is a big joke, the family is not only rich, but generally speaking, it is much harder than the poor family!
"How unfair is the dean's words, and I have been waiting for the submission for several days and nights, why can't it be compared to Zhou Han? Could it be that the medical school wants to support the poor? So much so that it is unfair to us and so on! A scholar said indignantly.
Since Emperor Wen of Sui founded the imperial examination, the family has also seen the hidden dangers, but they have not cared, after all, eight or nine out of ten of the scholars in the imperial examination are their children, and very few of the children of the poor family can be promoted, as long as this balance is maintained.
But not caring doesn't mean you can bear it in your heart!
Listening to the boiling of the crowd inside and outside the Tao Pavilion, if it was only Zhou Han, it would not have caused such a big wave, but now the dean of the Emperor is involved in this battle......
A small butterfly in South America can cause a storm on the west coast of the United States, let alone the emperor?
"It's not some injustice, but you are really not angry!" Li Yuan frowned, and said sharply: "You will open your submissions separately for you to see...... And Mr. Ma also opened Zhou Han's submission in your arms and let them see if the dean's eyes are blind, or the teachers in Taoli Pavilion are blind! ”
After that, he suddenly thought of a plan in his mind, and his face relaxed: "Since you are not convinced, you can hang everyone's submissions in Chang'an West City, and the people in the market will evaluate each other, divided into excellent, medium and inferior, one person once a day, five days as the boundary, judge the most excellent scholars, and personally recommend them to the people, how about it?" ”
If it is suppressed by thunderous means, of course, the medical school will be wiped out. But if an academy does not even have the most basic freedom of speech, then the academy should not be called an academy, and a prison is more suitable!
The inclusiveness and openness of the Tang Dynasty are enough to accommodate the sound outside the strings!
Dickinson and the other four gentlemen looked at each other, this is the only solution now, and it is fairer to change the judgment to the common people, otherwise it will be difficult for both sides to step down.
It's just that what surprised them even more was the recommendation from the Emperor Taishang!
