At the southern foot of Jilong Mountain, Guozijian, compared with the Guozijian in Beijing, is not inferior, it is also a large number of talents, reached its peak in the Yongle years, once had more than 9,000 students, it was the largest institution of higher learning in the world at that time, after moving the capital to Beijing, it gradually declined, after moving the capital, it recovered the vitality of the early years, and the students reached more than 5,000 people, all of whom gathered from all over the young handsome.

"General, this person is Zheng Sen, who studied under Qian Qianyi earlier, his real name is Fusong, Qian Qianyi named him Sen, which means deep and clean, and the crowd is luxuriant, and Qian Qianyi is to encourage him to give him the word "big wood."

Before Wang Chongjian, the priest of the country, introduced Cao Bianjiao to Cao Bianjiao, Wang Chongjian was also very surprised, and when Cao Bianjiao asked to see Zheng Sen by name, he was full of curiosity.

"The student has seen the ...... of the general"

Cao Bianjiao looked at the person in front of him, that is, Zheng Chenggong in the future, although he is now in his twenties, very young, but heroic, heroic, really a rare handsome, and smiled at the moment: "You are Zheng Sen, I heard your uncle Zheng Hongkui say you, you are really a young handsome, now the country is in the midst of employing people, are you willing to come out to serve the imperial court, although you can learn a lot in the country, but it is better to read thousands of books than to travel thousands of miles, can you follow me to serve?" ”

Zheng Sen was also a little surprised at the moment, glanced at Wang Chongjian, and didn't know whether to refuse, it was naturally a good thing to follow Cao Bianjiao to serve, but he also wanted to read more books and enrich himself, so he was a little hesitant.

"Da Mu, this is the general's weight to you, although you can read in the country, but the general said well, it is better to read 10,000 books than to travel 10,000 miles, go out, or you can still learn by yourself, it is rare to have such an opportunity, I think you will agree, serving the country, it is the long-cherished wish of scholars!"

Hearing Wang Chongjian's persuasion, Zheng Sen also replied at the moment: "Then the student will obey the general's arrangement!" ”

"Good! You've just come out, just do something by my side! ”

"I haven't thanked the general yet!" Wang Chongjian pushed Zheng Sen, you must know that the capital of the General's Mansion is from the official position of the seventh grade, which is comparable to the rank of a county order.

"Thank you, General, for your support!" Zheng Sen also reacted and hurriedly thanked him.

Cao Bianjiao said to Wang Chongjian again: "Wang sacrifice wine, you also need to rectify the country, the so-called practice, in addition to reading, you also need to exercise their bodies more, I think every morning and evening need to add a drill subject, run around the country, exercise their body, can not be that weak scholar, think that in the spring and autumn of the year, the scribes are all fighting swords in the world, even in the Sui and Tang dynasties, the great poet Li Taibai, isn't it so, since the Song Dynasty, only more and more weak text, In addition to reading those subsets of scriptures and history, you also need to start a war ideological education course to educate them on the way of loyalty and patriotism, and pick out some people's deeds from literature and history, such as Wen Tianxiang, Yue Fei, Chen Tang, etc., which must be held twice a month! ”

"What the general said is that the humble post will start to deal with it from now on, and arrange the things that the general has explained."

"Hmmm! In the future, the selection system of the imperial court is also slowly improved, in addition to being familiar with the subset of scriptures and history, it will also consider the physical quality of its people and the way of strategy, you also have to adjust the curriculum accordingly, Guozijian as the capital academy of the Ming Dynasty, the cultivation must be outstanding people, once a year, the failure will be eliminated, so that they have a sense of crisis, can not be too casual. ”

"Yes!" Wang Chongjian is also the answer.

"Big wood, let's go!" Cao Bianjiao also called Zheng Sen and took him out of the country.

"The rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband! I can't say some things just now, although you can learn some knowledge by studying in Guozijian, but if you don't want to be a scholar of the scriptures, you can read almost enough, and you can learn more things outside, which is more suitable than in Guozijian. ”

"The student understands what the general means!"

"It's good to understand! I use you, not because of your family background, I know that your Zheng family has been rising in Fujian over the years, your father is also an official and a businessman, monopolizing overseas trade, and seeking countless benefits for the family, I know this, as long as he does not damage the national strength, I will not care about him, I use you because you are a person, a talent, I don't want you to bury and waste time in the national prison. ”

"The general seems to be a little dissatisfied with his father?" Zheng Sen also heard the meaning of Cao Bianjiao's words, he has also been familiar with Zheng Zhilong's set since he was a child, and he has long known the things in terms of human feelings.

Cao Bianjiao smiled slightly, and said: "It's a little dissatisfied, what your father did, you should know some, damage the public and private, I won't hide it from you, if he still has a little self-knowledge, he should know how to make trade-offs, but don't worry, you are you, your father is your father, I won't treat it the same way, you'd better persuade your father more, let him see the situation clearly, he Zheng Zhilong don't say that there are only tens of thousands of horses, that is, hundreds of thousands of people, I Cao Bianjiao still won't put it in my eyes, I am in China, It's not that without him, Zheng Zhilong can't control the southeast. ”

"The student remembers the general's lesson, and will remind his father, in fact, the student still wants to ask the general, the general knows that his father is like this, why do he want to help his prestige, and think he is the chief military officer of Fujian?"

"If you take it first, you must give it first, haven't you heard of this truth, without him Zheng Zhilong, your Zheng family will not decline, because there is still you Zheng Sen, and I dare to assert that in the future, the scenery of the Zheng family will be even worse, you are smarter than your father, and you know the righteousness better, your father does everything for profit, this is not the way to survive for a long time, he is strong because of interests, and he will fall because of interests, this world, the only thing that can maintain prosperity is what, family style, family style will always exist, there is no shortage of talents, in order to survive from generation to generation, You should have also heard of a saying that it is called "no more than three generations of wealth", which is the truth I said! ”

Cao Bianjiao also took the trouble to tell Zheng Sen and explain his thoughts to him, for this person, he wants to focus on promoting and cultivating, Daming needs more talents, and what is more scarce is the talent who is in charge of himself, and now a Yuan Shu is nailed in Henan, Cao Bianjiao is sitting in Nanjing, commanding the overall situation, but Cao Bianjiao still feels that there is not enough manpower.

"I have long heard that the general is an immortal person, in the early years of the martial arts famous all over the world, there are large and small Cao generals in the army, the West thief is afraid of the saying, and later the general is in power, but also the head is the way, good at employing people, eclectic, regardless of the background, as long as the loyal service to the country, are the courage to boldly enable, today to be able to serve under the general's account, it is the honor of students!"

"Don't say these flattering words, since I became this general, I have heard a lot of flattering words, and when I hear more, I feel harsh, in the future, you don't want to learn from those ministers, do things well, you know?"

"Yes!"
