Chapter 35: Lime Moan
You must know that there are actually not many doctors in Guozijian, there are only a dozen people in total. www.biquge.info In addition to the supreme governor Guozijian sacrificial wine, the following is the Si Ye, and then the following is Taixue, Guozixue, Law and other institutions similar to university colleges, and its academic officials have doctors, Xuezheng, Xuelu, Xueyu, and Zhixue. Therefore, the Ph.D. is basically at the dean level.
There are two levels of local government schools: state (government military supervision) school and county school. The instructors of each school are called professors, two students in the state and one person in the county. The school teaching content of the Great Song Dynasty was mainly scriptures and poetry. There have also been improvements in school management, mainly through the establishment of a chief executive in charge of local education. This is the Department of Learning, in charge of a state and county school, once a year to the state and county inspection, to examine the quality of teachers and the industriousness of students, the country all schools to adopt the "three rounding method", by the county students to choose to enter the state school, the state students can pay tribute to the Taixue. This is actually similar to later generations, which is equivalent to going from primary school to middle school and middle school to university.
The Song Dynasty advocated Daxing local schools, mainly county schools, which were government-run schools, of course, there were many private academies, at that time, the government-run schools were originally cultivated for the country, and the children of poor families went to school as the best way out, so most of the poor children would choose county schools, because the tuition fees were very small. It's like compulsory education later.
Fan Taixue, Guozixue, Wuxue, Law, primary school, state and county school, etc., instructed students, recommended students to be lifted, built school buildings, painted three rite maps, painted sage statues, built pavilions and collections, and the emperor inspected the school, but the children of high-level and middle-level officials sat under supervision and study, only in name, the number was small, and there were very few people who attended the lectures on weekdays.
Shaoxing three-year Guozijian, also practiced the Yuanfeng three-house method, with a quota of 30 students in the upper house, 100 people in the inner house, and 570 people in the outer house. In the future, the number of people in each dormitory increased or decreased, and the students of the upper class could even directly hold official positions until the end of the Southern Song Dynasty.
Therefore, it is not so easy to be able to enter the country's sub-prison, and the benefits after becoming a three-person student are naturally great, Li Xiang cherishes this opportunity very much, or try to behave as well as possible, after all, a famous teacher produces a high apprentice, if the disciple is too second, it will be a shame for the teacher.
Wang Yisheng stroked his beard and smiled: "Okay, this official sees that you are a handsome young man, and there is no problem in passing the assessment." Now the official has come up with the first question, which is to compose a poem on the theme of an object. That is, the common saying of poetry poetry, this kind of poetry is also quite a lot, of course, to make good poetry in a short period of time, it is not an easy task, seven steps into poetry that is genius, as long as the content of the poem is appropriate, in line with the norms can be passed. Well, time is a pillar of incense, if you haven't made it after a pillar of incense is burned, or the poems you have made do not meet the requirements, then you don't have to take another test, you can only become a registered disciple of the official. ”
Li Xiang nodded and said calmly, "Yes, teacher!" In fact, he was extremely excited in his heart, this topic is so simple! Of course, for Li Xiang, a person who traveled back to the Great Song Dynasty from the 21st century, it is very simple, just search for a Yongwu poem from his mind, but he needs Yongwu poems after the Song Dynasty, and he can't make them too quickly, otherwise it will be shocking? Li Xiang didn't want to be an alternative.
Li Xiang pretended to be thinking and meditating, walking back and forth in the hall, looking at the roof for a while, and then looking outside the door, as if he was thinking hard, but in fact, he was simply looking around and killing time. Because he already has a poem, this poem is also very patriotic, and it is also related to his major, lime is also a cementitious material.
This poem is a poem written by Yu Qian, a famous minister of the Ming Dynasty, when he was seventeen years old. Through the anthropomorphic depiction of the lime production process, the poem expresses the author's fearless spirit of not being afraid of hardships and dangers, and the noble ambition of being innocent and upright. Li Xiang said in his heart, Yu Qian, Yu Qian, I'm sorry, this poem will be published hundreds of years in advance.
About half a pillar of incense time, Li Xiang felt that it was almost over, so he stopped and made a note to Wang Yisun: "Teacher, I already have it!" ”
Wang Yisun stroked his beard and smiled: "Okay! If you read it out and listen to it, you can make a poem in such a short time, you are already very good, as long as the poem meets the basic requirements, you will pass the test! ”
Li Xiang's eyes were incomparably clear, and he recited aloud: "Thousands of hammers are carved out of the deep mountains, and the fire burns as if it is idle; Don't be afraid of broken bones, you have to leave your innocence in the world. ”
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became different, not only Wang Yisun's eyes widened in surprise, but the hand that was still stroking his beard just now stopped there, and even Li Xiang's father, Li Kang, was shocked, where is this a poem that an eighteen-year-old boy can make, not to mention that this is still made in the time of half a pillar of incense! It's incredible.
Wang Yisun's eyes widened and he muttered, "You want to leave your innocence in the world!" Well said, this poem is wonderful! Li Xiang, how did you come up with it? ”
Faced with the teacher's question, Li Xiang had to explain carefully: "Teacher, I remember that Lu Fangweng has a poem, which is also a song. However, it is to depict Hanmei's spiritual character, in order to express Lu Fangweng's arrogance and ambition to serve the country. Scattered into mud and dust, only fragrant as before. The characteristics of Hanmei are depicted in great depth, so I thought of lime, which also has its own spiritual character like Hanmei. Lime is also a common item used by the craftsmen who worked as supervisors for the student's father, and it is very ordinary but extraordinary. ”
"The first sentence is to chisel out the deep mountains, which means that it is not easy to mine limestone, and it also means that limestone is a strange thing. The second sentence is that the fire burns like waiting. It is said that the process of firing lime stones, plus the three words of leisure, symbolizes that people with lofty ideals like Lu Fangweng, no matter what severe test they face, they are calm and unhurried, and they are idle. The third sentence is not afraid of broken bones. That is to say, the limestone is burned under the fire, turning into powder-like lime, and the word "not afraid at all" refers to the spirit of people with lofty ideals who are not afraid of sacrifice. As for the last sentence to leave innocence in the world, it means that every one of us in the Great Song Dynasty must be like Lu Fangweng, be an innocent person, take the world as his own responsibility like Fangweng, and have a strong will and determination to break his bones for the sake of the society and the common people. The students remembered that Lu Fangweng did not forget the Central Plains Day of Wang Shibei until his death, and said to his son that the family sacrifice should not forget to tell Naiweng! Li Xiang said without blushing and without a heartbeat.
Although it is borrowed from Yu Qian's poems in the Ming Dynasty, Li Xiang feels that there is nothing wrong with it, such a good poem should be published as soon as possible, he knows that Lu You is not only a generation of poets, but also a patriotic minister, and Wang Yisun is too, so the lime can represent Lu You's spiritual character, and it must have resonated with Wang Yisun's heart.
Sure enough, after listening to Li Xiang's explanation, Wang Yisun's eyes slowly moistened, the Great Song Dynasty is really facing the danger of losing the country now, but there are too few loyal ministers like Lu Fangweng and others in the court! He desperately hoped that the Great Song Dynasty would be able to recover the lost land, but unfortunately no one could understand his inner ambition now, but now the young man in front of him seemed to say his heart, how could he not be shocked and moved?
