More than 10,000 people may not all be able to enter the Taixue Holy Mansion. The Taixue Holy Mansion now has more than 70,000 students, and it can only accommodate 100,000 people at most.

Therefore, the further back, the stricter the requirements for entering the Taixue Holy Mansion.

Everyone who wants to enter the Taixue Holy Mansion needs to be interviewed, and the examiner is the Doctor of the Five Classics, which is not a person, but an official position, held by someone who specializes in the study of Confucian classics.

There are a total of 100 examiners in the Taixue Holy Mansion each time, so those who want to enter need to queue up to receive their identity number plates.

What Chu Tianshu got was the number 9527, and when he saw the number plate, Chu Tianshu was speechless, because this number was very famous, but this world had no meaning.

Long Ying also got the number plate, but it was already in the tens of thousands.

The interview is very simple, the examiner just asks some Confucian classics, as long as he can say ten sentences of the Analects and explain them, he can pass.

However, when it was Chu Tianshu's turn, it was already afternoon, because there were a lot of people, even if there were hundreds of examiners, it was impossible to get thousands of people at a time.

In the afternoon, Chu Tianshu only recalled a little, and then memorized the ten "Analects" that he had learned in junior high school and explained the meaning.

In this regard, the examiners were very satisfied, because the meaning of the explanation was very standard, so Chu Tianshu passed.

But when it was Ryusakur's turn, something went wrong.

"Woman, why do you want to get into the Taixue Holy Mansion?" An examiner snapped.

In ancient times, because of feudal thinking, women were actually very unwelcome, especially Confucianism, because women are not talented and virtuous, and women's task is to have children and children, as a tool for inheritance.

Although Long Ying is dressed as a man, her appearance is not clever, and she can be easily recognized, not like in the TV in her previous life, no one can see the obvious horse feet.

Long Ying didn't know how to answer, and her expression was a little cramped.

Gradually, the situation here attracted many people, and Chu Tianshu also walked over curiously.

When he saw that the person being questioned was Long Sakura, he immediately walked out.

"Excuse me, sir! She's my insider! Chu Tianshu said apologetically. Suddenly, Long Ying seemed to have found the backbone of the main heart and hid behind Chu Tianshu.

Immediately, the examiner's attention focused on Chu Tianshu.

"Do you know that you can't bring your family with you when you enter the school, and besides, you haven't officially entered the Taixue Holy Mansion! Confucianism emphasizes etiquette, people like you who don't abide by etiquette will not be able to earn from the Taixue Holy Mansion, so let's go! The examiner said indifferently.

Hearing this, Chu Tianshu frowned, his goal was to worship the Taixue Holy Mansion and learn more Confucian classics, so as to promote his cultivation of the Mozi Heart Sutra.

Long Ying also knew Chu Tianshu's purpose, and she was immediately very anxious, she was very annoyed in her heart, because her appearance made Chu Tianshu unable to achieve her goal.

Chu Tianshu saw Long Ying's expression, and immediately comforted:

"It's okay, I'm lucky, I'm sorry! Don't take it personally! ”

"However, it's all because of me, if I hadn't come with me, you wouldn't have been disqualified!" Long Ying said.

"Forget it, let's go! Confucian classics are not the only ones that can be learned here! After speaking, he pulled Long Sakura and prepared to leave.

Just then, a voice came out.

"Little brother, stay here!"

Soon in the crowd, a middle-aged man with a goatee walked out.

When the examiner saw this person, he immediately stood up to greet him.

"Meet the Mansion Master!"

The other candidates also bowed down to pay their respects.

Chu Tianshu didn't, but stood upright.

The person who came was Gongsun Hong, who looked about forty years old, but his real age was more than a Jiazi.

"What's the matter?" Chu Tianshu asked indifferently.

Gongsun Hong looked at Chu Tianshu with a smile on his face.

"I'm lucky, I'm sorry! The little brother said it very well, but this is the first time the old man has heard of this sentence, I don't know what the source is? Gongsun Hong said.

Hearing this, Chu Tianshu didn't feel anything in his heart, this sentence came more than a thousand years later, from a modern poem by the modern poet Xu Zhimo! It's a well-known phrase.

Immediately Chu Tianshu said:

"It's just a feeling! What can be the provenance? ”

Hearing this, Gongsun Hong looked at Chu Tianshu's eyes and appreciated it even more.

"Not bad! The mentality is calm, and the mood is not affected by external objects! Would you like to come under my door! Gongsun Hong said.

Suddenly, the people around were very surprised, and at the same time envied Chu Tianshu's opportunity. Even if they entered the Taixue Holy Mansion, they would not be able to become disciples of Gongsun Hong, at most they could only be students, and what they could learn was very limited.

Hearing Gongsun Hong's words, Chu Tianshu was still very surprised, he never thought of worshipping Gongsun Hong as a teacher, he just wanted to quietly enter the Taixue Holy Mansion to learn Confucian classics, and then cultivate in a muffled voice, as long as he broke through his own shackles, he could drift away.

It's a pity that the development of events has shifted a bit.

In fact, the reason why Gongsun Hong wanted to accept Chu Tianshu's apprentice was because of the Confucian literary atmosphere exuded by Chu Tianshu, because it was very messy, just like he was born in a wild road, which made Gongsun Hong think of himself back then, he had no teacher to worship, only to explore by himself, so he also experienced such a period, until the chaotic literary atmosphere became a family of its own, not weaker than the Confucian authenticity, and it was only today's achievements.

In fact, Chu Tianshu's current state is just because Mozi's true qi has not been completely transformed, so his breath is not very stable and looks chaotic.

Countless thoughts flashed in Chu Tianshu's mind, and then he bowed his hand respectfully and said:

"Disciple Chu Tianshu has seen the teacher!"

Hearing this, Gongsun Hong stroked his beard and smiled happily:

"Excellent! My Gongsun Hong has never accepted a disciple in his life, Chu Tianshu, you are my Gongsun Hong's first disciple! Speaking of this, Gongsun Hong said again:

"Have you ever had a word?"

So Chu Tianshu replied:

"The disciple is fourteen this year, and he has not yet reached the crown!"

Hearing this, Gongsun Hong's heart was even happier.

"Good~Good~Good~!" He said three good words in a row, and then said:

"Tianshu, the world is vast, then the teacher will give you a word, and you will save trouble when you reach the crown!" Then he thought for a while, and then said:

"Broad! I'll teach you a lot in the future! ”

"Thank you, teacher!" Chu Tianshu thanked him.

"Okay, let's follow the teacher!" After speaking, he walked towards the main hall of the Taixue Holy Mansion.

Chu Tianshu took Long Ying and followed.

The candidates behind him were envious, jealous and hateful, and then sighed why they couldn't say the classic words. Otherwise, he can also be favored by the master of the Taixue Holy Mansion and accepted as a disciple.

The person concerned is no longer present, but the assessment is still ongoing.

Half of the primaries have been eliminated, and the rest will have to go through several tests, and the number of people who can stay in the end will not reach a thousand.

However, none of this has anything to do with Chu Tianshu, because Chu Tianshu has already stepped in step and walked ahead of them.

In ancient times, only good relationships could be called words, and if the relationship was not in place, they were called names directly. It can be seen that Chu Tianshu is very valued by Gongsun Hong.

Entering the main hall, Gongsun Hong was already sitting in the first place.

"Sit down!" Gongsun Hong said.

So Chu Tianshu pulled Long Ying and sat on the first place.

"Kuozhi, you have to answer truthfully when the teacher asks you!" Gongsun Hong asked.

Although Chu Tianshu wondered why Gongsun Hong said this, he still nodded and responded:

"The disciple understands, I don't know what the teacher wants to ask?"

"How long have you been exploring the literature yourself?" Gongsun Hong said.

After thinking about it, Chu Tianshu said:

"Less than two years!"

Hearing this, Gongsun Hong showed a look of surprise.

"Good talent and beautiful jade, you can afford it! I can't imagine that my Gongsun Hong can still get this disciple to pass on my mantle, and God has mercy! Gongsun Hong was very excited.

The cultivation of Confucian culture requires familiarity with Confucian scriptures, and a body of literature needs to be accumulated, so Confucian students are late bloomers, especially Confucian students from Yeluzi, Gongsun Hong is the representative.

And Chu Tianshu, a wild man, now has the foundation of Confucian culture, and he is still very young, what is this concept at the age of fourteen, it only took less than two years to reach this level, and other people want to cultivate Confucian culture, without ten years, it is impossible to achieve.

Gongsun Hong's skills are all evolved from Yeluzi, and the authentic successor of Confucianism cannot inherit his mantle at all, even if he is a person from Yeluzi, he may not be able to accept it, because of talent.

Chu Tianshu received Confucian edification, the time was short, and he had already cultivated Confucian culture, so that he could better absorb Gongsun Hong's Confucianism.

Immediately, Gongsun Hong took out a roll of bamboo slips and said:

"The culture cultivated by the teacher is all self-comprehended and created! Although it is not as good as the Confucian authentic cultivation of the "Spring and Autumn Twelve Chapters", it is better to tolerate all families and not conflict with other mental laws! This is the exercise created for the teacher "Gongsun Ten Volumes" Volume 1, when you comprehend it completely, the teacher will pass on the next volume to you! ”

So Chu Tianshu respectfully came to Gongsun Hong and took the first volume of "Gongsun Ten Volumes".

Seeing Chu Tianshu take over the exercises he created, Gongsun Hong felt relieved. Everyone who has achieved success does not want their inheritance to be severed.

Chu Tianshu did not immediately look through it, but put it in his arms.

"Thank you, teacher!" Chu Tianshu bowed and said.

Gongsun Hong was very satisfied with Chu Tianshu's attitude, and then said:

"Kuozhi, the concept of being a teacher is 'harmony', so when you practice, forget the authentic 'benevolence' and 'righteousness' of Confucianism, otherwise you will have nothing to gain from the teacher's exercises!"

"Disciple understands!" Chu Tianshu said, while remembering Gongsun Hong's advice.

Besides, Chu Tianshu is not very interested in Confucian classics. Confucianism mainly talks about the three outlines and five constants, which require everything to abide by the rules and be respectful and courteous. Therefore, it can gradually wear out a person's creativity, and make people's open minds more subtle and pedantic.

"There is the experience of being a teacher in the first volume, you can comprehend it yourself, how much you can realize, how many volumes will be passed on to you as a teacher, otherwise you will be greedy and chew too much, it will become a burden, and you will not be able to advance an inch in this life!" Gongsun Hong continued.

Chu Tianshu nodded.

Long Ying sat respectfully, because in this environment, she had nothing to say.

"Kuozhi can have a place to live, there is still a surplus in the vacant mansion in the Taixue Holy Mansion, as a disciple of the teacher, I will let the teacher take you to choose a place, and in the future, Kuozhi and Ling Yan (kun third sound) will live here!" Gongsun Hong said.

Chu Tianshu then said:

"Teacher, the disciple has already set up a house outside Chang'an City, and there are servants in the courtyard to take care of it, so there is no need to trouble the teacher!"

Gongsun Hong waved his hand and said:

"That's it! However, Kuozhi still has to choose a place, and he may have to live in the Taixue Holy Mansion in the future! ”

"That disciple thanked the teacher!" Chu Tianshu said.

"Okay, Kuozhi, you go back and arrange your home first, and report to the Taixue Holy Mansion three days later!" Gongsun Hong said.

"That disciple retires!" After saying that, he saluted and left with Long Sakura.

Looking at Chu Tianshu's back, Gongsun Hong muttered:

"I hope Kuozhi won't let me down, my time is running out, twenty years at most, and my deadline is coming! Ay~! After speaking, Gongsun Hong sighed.
