Chapter 85: Lecturing
"Master, is there too many disciples?" The momentum of the people who came to sign up was too huge, and it was only ten days since Zhao Zheng moved to Baiyun Palace, and there were more than 10,000 disciples who came to sign up. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info of course, as the enlightenment of the old man who followed Zhao Zheng, he could not lag behind, and worshiped Zhao Zheng.
Zhao Zheng also felt a little distressed when he looked at the dense crowd of people, and then there was no threshold to accept apprentices, and the Baiyun Palace would be overcrowded sooner or later, but Zhao Zheng didn't want to give up this opportunity for the spread of new Taoism, so he had to compromise and take an entrance exam.
Anyone who wants to worship the White Cloud Palace, within three months can listen to the lecture at will in the White Moon Palace, and the library in the palace is also open to it, three months later, when the time comes, participate in the examination of the White Cloud Palace, and those who pass the test can worship under Zhao Zheng, and those who fail need to pay a certain amount of money if they want to continue to listen to the lecture or browse the books in the library pavilion.
If the national teacher's division is so easy to enter, wouldn't it be too cheap, but this will make it difficult for those poor children who have not studied, so Zhao Zheng opened a Yuhang Academy next to the Baiyun Palace, teaching children under the age of 14 for free, providing textbooks and room and board, but studying during the day, and needing to work for the Baiyun Palace in the afternoon, which is considered to be an expanded Salesian Bureau.
In addition, Zhao Zheng also had to lead the hundreds of masters of the Ordnance Supervisor to systematically explain the way of steelmaking, and then divide them into groups of five and divide them into twenty-five groups, and then each group will bring fifty apprentices selected by the imperial court from all over the Song Kingdom, so that they can be on their own after half a year. The apprentices in each group will be examined every month, ranked according to the comprehensive results of each group, and the bottom two will be eliminated, and then the master craftsmen of that group will not be qualified to continue to learn the way of refining weapons with the national teacher, unless the apprentices in that group enter the middle of the three-month competition.
In ancient China, there was a bad habit that told the disciples of the church to starve to death the master, and those who hid a hand from the apprentices were quite conscientious, and some even passed on some fur kung fu for the rest of their lives, so as to get a free long-term job.
But Zhao Zheng decided to break this bad habit and force them to teach their disciples to be real, because the industry's top technology is in his hands, and he is not afraid of their selfishness.
Most of the masters in the glass workshop are ordnance supervisors, but Zhao Zheng also treats them equally and gives them a subsidy of 100 yuan per month, so they also cherish the identity of the master craftsman, and they must always stand at the forefront of this iron-making road, otherwise how can they be called master craftsmen if their technology is surpassed by their juniors.
The twenty officials sent by the Ministry of Industry to learn the art of survey with Zhao Zheng are the objects that Zhao Zheng strives for, and it is rare to be able to get a jinshi in this era, but all the people are called the reincarnation of the stars in the sky by the people, which shows its gold content, all of them are the elites of this era.
And the selection of these twenty people is more or less interested in Zhao Zheng's new Taoism, and Zhao Zheng doesn't want to explore the purpose of each of them, who doesn't have seven emotions and six desires, and there are many people who want to climb the emperor with the thigh of the new Taoism.
In particular, there are two old jinshi in their forties, who have been sitting on the cold bench in the Ministry of Industry for several years, and they are already going straight to the age of fifty, completely because they want to burn Zhao Zheng's hot stove and cling to the saint, and Zhao Zheng is not angry.
As long as the new Taoism can be promoted, Zhao Zheng doesn't mind what its purpose is, as long as he is a native of the Song Kingdom and represents the interests of the Song Kingdom.
Zhao Zheng was lecturing all day long, his voice was a little hoarse, and his energy was exhausted.
Sitting in the wooden barrel and soaking his feet, they all began to doze off, and the little Taoist priest who was standing on the side saw Zhao Zheng falling asleep, and did not wake up Zhao Zheng, but squatted down to dry Zhao Zheng's feet, let the other senior brothers come in, and carried Zhao Zheng to the dormitory to rest.
Zhao Zheng was shaken awake on a broad back, and saw this person's stamina clearly in a daze, it turned out to be a Taoist priest of Honghu Palace in the past, and now he sat down One of his disciples, named Sun Wei, has become a family in Lin'an, and now the family has moved to Yuhang.
"Sun Wei, what time is it?"
"Master, it's already four o'clock!"
After Zhao Zheng listened, he fell headlong on Sun Wei's back: "Wake me up in two quarters of an hour, and at the same time let Gushan and Enyuan come to my room." ”
"Master, Master." Sun Wei called twice and saw that Zhao Zheng did not respond, and sighed, why is the master in such a hurry every day.
——
Two moments later, two young officials dressed in civilian clothes came to Zhao Zheng's door.
Sun Wei pinched it, and only after burning half a pillar of incense did he let the two officials in, if it was half a year ago, he would never dare to ask the two officials to wait outside, so that they would not make a sound.
But after half a year of cultivation, he has long regarded Zhao Zheng as a fairy-like figure, and he is also a disciple of the immortal family, this waist board is naturally much straighter than before, and even his horizons are much broader.
"The national teacher has been tired for a day, and I ask the two officials to be considerate and let the family teacher rest early." After the two officials entered the room, Sun Weiren reminded him in a low voice.
Although the two officials were not arrogant, they were also a little annoying, this person told the two of them on the mother-in-law and mother along the way, which really made people a little helpless, but the seven-rank official in front of the prime minister, not to mention the disciple in front of him who was still a national teacher, and he was also a disciple of the teacher, and there was no malice, so the two had to endure it and nod perfunctory from time to time.
"Gushan, Enyuan, sit down, I'm really sleepy, so I'm wearing pajamas, don't mind the two of you." When the two entered the house, Zhao Zheng had already woken up, rubbed his eyes, walked to the bookcase and began to look for books.
The two didn't dare to make the slightest big statement: "The national teacher is serious, your body is important, I will take back the books, if you don't understand, I will come to consult the national teacher tomorrow." ”
Zhao Zheng said with a smile: "Today, I remembered that you asked me a few days ago for scriptures such as the history of governing the people, if you come to ask for advice tomorrow, maybe it will have to be delayed for a few days." I heard that Chengdao said that the two of you studied books in the library every day and rested very late, so it was certain that you hadn't fallen asleep at this time, so I asked Sun Wei to invite you. ”
"The national teacher is hardworking, and Hu is grateful!" As he spoke, Zhao Zheng handed him a book.
"Gushan, this is a Western classic, I got it from a wealthy businessman, and it is a discourse on the Western political system." Zhao Zheng in front of the official named Gushan is named Hu Yongqi, a person from Fujian, at the age of twenty-seven, he was admitted to the Jinshi and belonged to the super scholar, but he was full of energy, and he entered the Hanlin Academy just after the Jinshi examination, and made several like-minded friends, and he couldn't get used to Liang Chengda's mad dog behavior, so he wrote a book of impeachment, and the tragedy happened.
But he saw the hope of his promotion from Zhao Zheng's new Taoism, he was kicked into the Ministry of Industry in charge of the Yu Department of Salary, as soon as he studied the Confucian classics, after the officialdom was blocked, where could he be valued by the Holy God through improvement and management of the salary, so he was promoted and left the unfortunate place of the Ministry of Industry.
And Zhao Zheng's new Taoism made him see a Cotai Avenue, so he invited himself to go to Baiyun Taoist Temple to learn from the national teacher to see if he could get the national teacher to teach the Taoism related to charcoal.
The reason why Hu Yongqi dared to do this was because he was also a director of the Ministry of Water in the Baiyun Taoist Temple to seek the Taoism of dredging the river, and the management of the Huai River was very successful, and he was just promoted to the Ministry of Water Wailang.
But I didn't expect that he didn't need to ask the national teacher in person, he found a book on how to increase the charcoal refining in the library pavilion, with that book, Hu Yongqi believed that he would be able to do something that impressed his colleagues, so his mind was a little offended, so he asked Zhao Zheng for a scripture on governance, I thought that the national teacher would test himself and go through a lot of hard work to get it, but I didn't expect Zhao Zheng to agree easily, and he was full of emotion for a while.
"Enyuan, this is the history book you want, and the content in it may be very different from today's doctrine, and the trade-off depends on yourself." Before Zhao Zheng could reply, he handed a thin book to Ma Chenghe, who was the source of the word, and this historiographical evaluation was an excerpt from Zhao Zheng's later book of Chinese Historical Commentary, deleting a large number of reactionary words such as the limitations of the feudal class, and copying less than one-fifth of the contents of the book.
After the two got the books, they all said goodbye to Zhao Zheng: "National teacher, you have been lecturing for a day, or rest early, let's leave first, if you don't understand, come to ask the national teacher for advice another day." ”
Zhao Zheng grabbed the two of them and said: "You sit down and watch first, tomorrow will be in the afternoon to teach you the art of survey, you can study in my room tonight, miss tonight, I am afraid that there will not be much time for the two of you to open a small stove alone, but don't fall behind in your homework on the art of survey." ”
Zhao Zheng saw that the two of them were still a little hesitant, and said with a smile: "Look at you, it just so happens that I also have some doubts tonight, and I need to ask the ancients, so the three of us will read separately." ”
"There is a national teacher!"
Zhao Zheng said so, and the two of them would be a little ignorant if they refused again, so they sat down and looked through the books.
"Qingchen, you can also go down and rest." Zhao Zheng instructed the little Taoist priest who had been serving on the side.
"Yes, Master."
So the three of them began to study books in the house, Zhao Zheng originally intended to win his heart, did not put too much attention to books, and was exhausted, and began to fight in less than a quarter of an hour. Occasionally woke up suddenly, he was embarrassed to smile at the two, and seeing that the two of them were all focused on the book, Zhao Zheng was relieved, and fell asleep unconsciously.
Hu Yongqi and Ma Chenghe had been secretly looking at Zhao Zheng, and when they saw Zhao Zheng sleeping, their faces were indescribably guilty and moved, the two looked at each other, and they were ready to carry Zhao Zheng to the bed.
At this time, the door opened quietly, and the little Taoist priest named Qingchen quietly entered the door, found that the two were looking at him, shushed with his fingers, and quietly came to Zhao Zheng's side and put on a coat for him. Then he whispered to the two: "The national teacher is not dead yet, and he can only be lifted to bed after two more moments." ”
The two nodded and continued to read.
Outside the door, the zodiac chief sighed softly and went back to his dormitory to rest.
Zhao Zheng cares about the world, how can the world not care about Zhao Zheng?
