Chapter X: Grouping
Ever since the official of the Xiuwen Pavilion went to Li Jiancheng to complain, but instead lost his official position, the officials of the Xiuwen Pavilion did not dare to come to find trouble with Shi Bufan. And Shi Bufan seems to have become the favorite teacher of these young imperial relatives, originally according to the regulations, it was the people of the Xiuwen Hall who took turns to teach them, but now the royal relatives of these princes and princesses only recognized Shi Bufan, and the other teachers also did not recognize it. In this way, the teaching task is also overwhelming Shi Bufan. Originally, the duties of the school scrivener were to proofread and edit the books, and teaching was only a secondary task, which was rotated. But now teaching has become a patent of Shi Bufan, after all, those students can no longer accept those boring teaching methods after listening to Shi Bufan's stories and teaching methods. The teaching methods of these ancient people are too boring, and every time they say big truths, how can these children stand it.
"Guys, I'm going to group you today. In the past, I didn't think it was appropriate for you to have such a seat, so I'm going to regroup you. Shi Bufan said.
"Grouping?" Li Li asked curiously, obviously not knowing what this grouping meant.
Shi Bufan said: "Your past grouping was arranged according to your identity and bloodline, I don't think this is very appropriate, it is easy to influence, so I plan to regroup." ”
Shi Bufan found that the lecture positions of these royal students were actually very strictly assigned. These are mainly based on the royal family, and generally things are distributed according to the method of male left and female right. On the left are male students, and on the right are female students. However, the grouping of these men and women clearly has the rank of red fruit. First of all, they are divided according to their father's title, the old viscount with a high title can sit in the front, and the old viscount with a low title often has to sit in the back. Of course, there are other factors, such as blood closeness, generational relationship, and a whole host of other things that affect the seats of these students.
Their distribution method is not based on height, but on the hierarchy of red fruits. This kind of hierarchy is actually to maintain the ancient dignity and inferiority, but this feels very inappropriate for the times, because this method is very messy. And Li Yuan's Li family is a big family, and the family is very large after so many generations. With such a large family, it is easy to cause a mismatch between generation and age in the end. Some of them are very old, but they are only five or six years old. Some of them are young, but they are already eleven or twelve years old. And these seniorities are also an important factor that affects the seating of these students, and in principle, people with higher seniority sit in the front. As a result, the people next to them are not small in the same generation. A student of the same generation, the classmate next to him may only be five or six years old, but he is already eleven or twelve years old.
This arrangement completely ignores the age gap between those who do not need to be students. Especially between the ages of six and teens, this time is one of the fastest learning stages for human beings, and the difference between this stage is one year, so maybe their outlook on life, worldview, and values are completely different. If you are one year older, you may become much more mature, and their thoughts and thoughts are completely different, and they are completely several realms behind. In ancient times, maybe eleven or twelve-year-old children may have to think about the direction of their future career and career, but a five or six-year-old child is still having fun. These two are completely different ideas, but if they are arranged in this way, it is very unreasonable.
"So, I don't think your old grouping methods are appropriate, I'm going to regroup you! Now, I'm in the same group of names. Shi Bufan said.
"Li Wanrou, Li Wanshun, Li Lizhi ......"
There were a few names of girls in the year, and these were all girls who were about five or six years old, and they were divided into groups. Li Wanrou and Li Wanshun are Li Jiancheng's daughters, and Li Lizhi is Li Shimin's daughter, and some other princesses and county lords are also assigned together. According to the regulations of the Tang Dynasty, the emperor's daughter was the princess, the prince's daughter was the county lord, and the prince's daughter was the county lord. Now Shi Bufan has arranged several young princesses, county lords, and county lords together, and let them conduct their own classes.
"Also, Li Xiaoci, Li Xiaoyou, Li Chongyi ......"
Shi Bufan continued to read the names of several older students, and then this list made some people dissatisfied.
"Shi Xiaoshulang, why did you arrange us together? Li Chongyi is the son of Brother Wang and our nephew, why did he arrange him to us so regardless of generation? Li Xiaoci asked.
But when Li Chongyi heard this, he was also very dissatisfied, and replied: "My father is really a soldier who fought for my Datang with a knife and a gun, and made important contributions to the founding of my Datang country, why can't we be together?" And I am my father's eldest son, and you are just a concubine, why did you arrange me to be with you? ”
"You are the son-in-law, we still directly obtained the emperor's canonization as the king of the county, you don't have a title, why are you sitting here with us." Li Xiaoyou also replied not to be outdone.
Shi Bufan's heart is like 10,000 grass and mud horses passing by, and they are all fighting here one by one, so that Shi Bufan is not depressed. However, for these children, isn't it easy to clean up? Although Shi Bufan does not approve of corporal punishment, it is still okay to scare it. Especially these guys who think they are from an extraordinary background, if they don't let them know that they are powerful, it will be troublesome.
"Alright, be quiet, be quiet! I don't care who your father is, and I don't dare to know whose son you are, or what title you have. I don't care about any sister-in-law or anything else. I just need to know that since you have come to the Shubunkan, then you are also my students, understand? Since you are my student, you have to listen to me. I will treat you all equally, regardless of who you are or who your father is. No matter what it is, it is the king of the county, whether there is a title or not, whether it is a princess, a county lord or a county lord, I will treat everyone equally. If anyone dares to cause trouble with me, then I have the right to punish them. You know, according to the authorization of the emperor, the Xiuwen Pavilion can punish you, I hope you can understand. And the power of punishment is in my hands. So I hope you don't take it seriously, understand? As for what you say about what kind of prince you are, and what kind of concubine you are, but your father is not here, and the county officials are not as good as the current management, you should understand! Shi Bufan said.
After hearing Shi Bufan's words, the older children were also stable. Because they are all eleven or twelve years old, they have matured a lot in ancient times, and they obviously understand a lot of things. So when they heard Shi Bufan's words, they couldn't help but be frightened for a while, Shi Bufan didn't seem to be afraid of them. And this also makes them think that their biggest reliance is gone, so that they are not depressed. And Shi Bufan told them that if they were disobedient, then Bufan would have the right to punish them, which also made them immediately show a "so scared" demeanor, obviously afraid.
"Sure enough, he is still a child who is not fully mature, a child of eleven or twelve years old, he may understand his royal identity, but he does not really mean what his title and royal status mean." Shi Bufan thought about it.
These eleven or twelve-year-old children may have a superficial understanding of the importance of their royal identity, but they have not been able to fully recognize how powerful their royal identity is. is like an eleven or twelve-year-old second-generation official in later generations, maybe they know that their identity as a second-generation official can bring benefits, but they don't have a quantitative standard for how much benefit they can bring. Maybe if they are older, they will understand that their second-generation official status can give them the right to get more priority employment, the right to work in the government department more easily, and a lot of indirect social resources to develop their careers.
But an eleven or twelve-year-old child, although there are some benefits to knowing their identity, but they obviously can't quantify how much of it is. Therefore, as long as Shi Bufan makes a look that he doesn't care about the threat of their identity, then in the end, they will definitely not know how powerful their identity is. Coupled with Shi Bufan's appearance that he could punish them at any time, of course they had to choose to give in.
Shi Bufan has also gone to see some elementary school lectures, and he has seen some students in the upper grades of primary school and junior high school, and there are also some children who are officials in their families. Many teachers think that these people are difficult to manage, because those teachers are afraid that when the time comes, the parents who are in charge will give him small shoes, and they are afraid that they will sue their parents. But in fact, according to the survey, these eleven and twelve-year-old children do not fully realize the influence of their parents, and they are unable to make a very accurate quantification.
So in fact, as long as you strictly manage, they will also choose to obey the management. However, some teachers are frightened by this, and they are afraid of their relatives who are officials, which in turn will fuel his so-called sense of privilege. In the hearts of those children, if they teach themselves to be a teacher and are afraid of their parents' identity, they can also make a "comparison", so that they will obviously know that they are also afraid of their own identity as a teacher, which will encourage their sense of privilege and a lot of arrogance.
In fact, as long as they are strictly managed at this time, they will eventually be forced to choose to give in, because they do not know how much benefit their parents' so-called privileges can bring, and they cannot accurately quantify them. Shi Bufan immediately suppressed their thoughts to prevent them from causing trouble to their teaching.
"Okay, you've grouped by age. Next, I'm going to show you something! Shi Bufan said.
Shi Bufan asked some of the servants outside the palace to bring some things in. And this thing looks like a round table, but in fact it is a round table. These round tables come in large and small, tall and short, and are installed according to different specifications.
And these round tables are made by the carpenters who serve in the palace, and this kind of round table can be easily designed even if it is a liberal arts student, so there will be no difficulty. After these round tables were moved into the classroom, Shi Bufan asked those servants to remove the original wooden desks, and then they all followed this round table to conduct classes.
"You go to the round tables and sit down next to those round tables, and we'll study the way you sit in that seat from now on!" Shi Bufan said.
After Li Lizhi sat on the small chair on this round table, she immediately said: "It seems that next to this round table, I feel that we seem to be a lot closer!" ”
After Li Lizhi finished speaking, the students next to the round table also felt the same way, and they felt that they were a little close to the people of the royal family around them. Originally, although they were all members of the Li family of the royal family, in fact, because of various seniorities and royal titles, concubines, blood closeness, etc., as well as various factors, although they were all royal families, the elders and young also existed. What's more, the Li family is too big, and although many of them are of the same clan, they are not familiar with them.
When these fellow clans become royals and then come to meet, the first thing to do is to fight for their father. In this kind of situation where they just met and fought for their father, how could they be close?
However, Shi Bufan made this round table, so that they felt as if they were equal to each other, and they were no longer divided into seats like in the past. With this round table, they feel as if they are all in the same relationship with each other. Because their status at this round table seems to be similar to each other, it makes people feel a lot closer to each other.
"Okay, what do you want to learn next? We're going to use the task teaching method, Li Xiaoci, what do you want to learn? Shi Bufan asked.
Shi Bufan first taught this Li Xiaoci and their group to see what their hobbies wanted to learn, so that Shi Bufan could teach according to their interests. Shi Bufan knew that these eleven or twelve-year-old children had a solid understanding of all kinds of ancient times. Although they don't know much about natural science and engineering, Shi Bufan knows that it is impossible for these royal families to learn science and engineering knowledge. But at the age of eleven or twelve, they can also know the language and writing, and they have basically learned what they should learn, so they should be given some professional teaching at that time, instead of continuing to supplement those basic knowledge.
According to the current plan, children between the ages of six and ten will mainly supplement their basic knowledge with storytelling, and children over the age of ten will receive professional education according to their needs. In ancient times, it was not like the later generations had to go through more than ten years of basic knowledge education in primary and secondary schools, and the basic knowledge of ancient times was not as rich as that of later generations, and it was enough for three or four years. Over the age of 10, they will be taught in the direction of their future development, just like choosing a major in a university, which is conducive to their learning.
