Chapter Seventy-Five: Protestant Learning

In the morning, it was Zhu Hao who was supposed to talk about "Mencius", but Yuan Zonggao said that when a new gentleman came, it would become self-study.

Yuan Zonggao left early, and then Lu Bingshan was late.

Near noon, a scholar in a blue shirt finally appeared in the schoolhouse, not brought by Yuan Zonggao, but an ordinary guard came to see him off.

Originally, Zhu Hao thought that the person who came out to be a gentleman was at least a forty or fifty-year-old old scholar who had no hope of taking the imperial examination, but when he saw people with his own eyes, he found that he was actually a young man who might not even be twenty years old.

This person has a stubble figure, looks plump and handsome, has delicate eyebrows, unhealthy white skin, and the conditions at home are probably not very good, and nutrition cannot keep up. Looking at the blue shirt on his body, there are patches on the cuffs and shoulders, which probably explains why a show in his twenties will ignore the preparation for the township exam and run to be a gentleman.

"Wait ......"

After the man came in, he looked at the children present, and the whole person was unnatural.

Zhu San took the lead in getting up and saluting: "I've seen Mr. Gongsun." ”

When the visitor heard this, he was even more cramped, as if he had never given a lesson before, and his pace was not smooth, so he walked awkwardly to the podium, first looked at the blackboard, wondered what it was, and then stood up to look at the children standing below.

"I ...... The contemptible Gongsun Yi, a native of Anlu, is here to teach you today...... I don't know who is His Royal Highness King Xing? ”

This person is very direct, and when he comes up, he asks who the son is.

Zhu San came out and said: "I am, is there something wrong with you?" ”

"I didn't ...... No, the contemptible people have admired King Xing and the prince for a long time, and they can come today......"

This opening remark does not have the momentum of a gentleman at all, like a teacher who has just graduated and walked on the podium.

Zhu Hao looked at it and felt very familiar, because he had brought many such students at the beginning, and most of them looked like this when they first came to the podium...... Later, those students basically taught in universities or primary and secondary schools across the country, and gradually became the backbone of education in their respective schools.

The reason why Zhu Hao showed outstanding talent in teaching was because he was not an ordinary teacher in his previous life, but a teacher's teacher.

Seeing such a young man, Zhu Hao felt a sense of intimacy.

Just when Gongsun Yi was talking about her excitement about entering the Xing Palace, Zhu San once again showed her cunning side: "Mr. Gongsun, is your Gongsun Yi's name the clothes of clothes?" Why do you call it that? It's weird. ”

"Huh?"

Gongsun Yi really didn't adapt to this kind of dialogue.

It is strange for a student to dare to comment on Mr.'s name?

Who gave you the guts?

Aren't you afraid of being punished?

But this is the prince of Xingwang in front of you, people are not afraid of punishment, you are just being pulled here to teach a lot, and you really treat yourself as a dish?

Gongsun Yi tried to squeeze out a smile and said: "The name of the contemptible person is given by the mother, the line in the hand of the loving mother, and the shirt of the wandering son, which is to take the meaning of filial piety...... Now I will start the lecture, in the words of Master Yuan, today I will talk about the "Mencius" Gongsun Chou chapter ......"

"Gongsun Chou asked: 'The master should be in Qi, and the work of Guan Zhong and Yan Zi can be restored?' Mencius said: 'Zicheng Qi people are also ......'"

At this point, Gongsun Yi finally saw that he was not the opponent of the prince, and it was more practical to give lectures, and the palace asked him to be a temporary gentleman, so he would do his job well.

Mr. Dang is most in line with the "no danger and another day" life model, and it doesn't seem to matter where the teaching location is.

……

……

The atmosphere in the classroom suddenly rose.

When Mr. Xin arrived, he wanted to know how many brushes he had, and Zhu San still wanted to play tricks on the teacher, so that when Gongsun Yi was lecturing, Zhu San interrupted him from time to time.

"Sir, I don't think what you said here is right, Zhu Hao didn't teach us like this before."

Zhu San not only teased Gongsun Yi, but also wanted to bring Zhu Hao into the war, causing some suspicion between Gongsun Yi and Zhu Hao, so she could watch the fire from the other side and watch the excitement.

Gongsun Yi asked, "Who is Zhu Hao?" Is that your former husband? ”

"Hey......

The children below are laughing.

Gongsun Yi felt very curious, I asked if it was your former husband, you just answered yes or no, what are you laughing at?

Zhu Hao raised his hand and said, "Mr. Gongsun, the Zhu Hao she said is me." ”

"Huh?"

The surprise on Gongsun Yi's face was not faked, he couldn't believe it, Xingwang Shizi said that Zhu Hao taught him things, and the palace was actually an inconspicuous companion to teach?

What are you doing?

Zhu Hao explained: "Recently, whenever Sui Jiaoxi is not there, I will give them lectures, because I have studied the Four Books and Five Classics before. ”

"I see."

Gongsun Yi did not continue to dwell on this issue and continued to lecture his class.

Zhu San smiled and glanced back at Zhu Hao, and was about to continue the fire, when the guard who had sent Gongsun Yi over came to greet him: "Mr. Gongsun, it's time for lunch...... Like the guards, you go to the West Courtyard cafeteria to eat, and there will be food arranged. ”

Gongsun Yi heard that it was time to eat, and for some reason, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, lick his lips, and his eyes glowed, as if he entered the palace just to rub rice.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Hao blinked, curious why Gongsun Yi reacted like this.

"Oh, it's time to eat, let's go!"

Zhu Sanyi listened to the class, pulled Zhu Si and Lu Bing and went to the inner courtyard.

Gongsun Yi looked at Zhu Hao and Jing Hong, as if he was curious why these two didn't go with him, Zhu Hao got up and said, "If Mr. Gongsun doesn't know the way, just go to the West Courtyard Canteen with us." ”

Gongsun Yi realized that the treatment of the people in this small class was also very different.

……

……

Zhu Hao, Jing Hong and Gongsun Yi went to the canteen of the West Courtyard of the Royal Mansion together.

To say that there were Protestants who entered the palace that day, the west courtyard of the palace still made some food improvements, and left food for Gongsun Yi alone, which at least shows that the upper echelons of the palace said hello.

You can't let Gongsun Yi come here, because you can't even eat after the meal, then you will lose the fine tradition of respecting teachers in the palace.

"Mr. Gongsun, I don't know how noble you are?"

Zhu Hao looked at Gongsun Yi as much as possible to pretend to chew slowly when he was eating, but he couldn't help but desperately pull it into his mouth, and couldn't help asking.

Gongsun Yi said: "It's twenty years old. ”

"Is Zuntang alive?" Zhu Hao inquired.

"Jia Yan died young."

Gongsun Yi was a little impatient.

It means that there is only one old mother in the family.

"Can you get married?" Zhu Hao continued to ask.

Gongsun Yi glanced at Zhu Hao in some surprise, or was thinking, why do you kid have so many problems? Whether you marry for your teacher or not, what does it have to do with you, a disciple?

But with his impression, this palace companion is not rich but expensive, and when he leaves the palace in the future, he may have to rely on the help of these children of rich and noble families, and after thinking about it, he said bluntly: "I have been married in the first year." ”

In this era, men generally get married later than women, but they don't get married until they are nineteen years old, which is definitely not early, and they should be "older young men".

This is enough to show that his family background is not good.

Think about it, the father died early, the old mother raised her son alone, and trained her son to become a showman, which has reached the limit, if it weren't for the son who was admitted to the show, it is estimated that he would not even be qualified to get married!

"Mr. Nagongsun...... Don't have kids yet, right? Zhu Hao continued to ask.

Gongsun Yi's face was slightly displeased, but he still replied with a "hmm".

Jing Hong looked at Zhu Hao curiously, very strange, why did the little friend ask Mr. so many questions?

In this era, the concept of heaven and earth is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and there is an unbridgeable gap between teachers and students.

Zhu Hao said: "This year is the year of the annual examination, and the local annual examination in Anlu in August has ended...... I wonder how well my husband did in the exam? ”

Gongsun Yi looked up at Zhu Hao, it was strange that a child knew so much?

The Ming Dynasty did not mention the official position of studying and studying politics, and the local examinations were completed by the provincial political envoy or a deputy of the inspection department, which was called "academic envoy".

In the first year of their tenure, that is, in the year of the examination, the "student envoys" will conduct annual examinations, travel around the country to assess the students from all over the country, and use the state capital as a unit to evaluate the grades of the students and make rewards and punishments.

Before the end of the year, the "student envoy" has to finish the children's college examination, that is, the college examination, to take the rookie talent, sometimes the college examination can not be completed that year, will be delayed after March and April of the next year.

In the second year, the scientific examination is carried out, which is equivalent to the selection of the township examination.

Only those who have excellent results in the scientific examination are called "admission subjects" and are eligible to participate in the township examination.

The third year is the year of the township examination, and if there is a record examination in July, that is, if you do not pass the scientific examination, or do not participate in it due to things or the system, you can take a make-up examination and obtain the qualification to participate in the township examination that year.

August Township Test.

After that, the term of office of the "scholar" is over, and the cycle repeats.

For ordinary students, as long as they don't pass the exam, this cycle will continue.

Therefore, the talents who came out to teach were basically hopeless scholars in the township exam.

For example, in "Fan Jin Zhongju", after Fan Jin was admitted to the middle school membership, his father-in-law heard that he was going to take the exam, and scolded him, "Like you, a sharp-beaked monkey gills, you should also pee and take care of yourself, not three, not four, just want to eat swan fart." Take this heart as soon as possible, and find a museum for you in our line next year, and find a few taels of silver every year, and it is serious to feed your immortal old lady and your wife."

Gongsun Yi came out at a young age to teach, and there must be difficulties at home.

Gongsun Yiben was reluctant to answer, but after thinking about it, it didn't seem to be a shame, and he looked up a little meaningfully: "The first class in the annual exam has made up for the increase in birth." ”

A new recruit, the first time to take the annual examination, even if the results are excellent, there is no way to directly make up for the students, not the students are not eligible to enjoy the imperial court's rice, and now there are two years before the next township examination, even if you want to continue to study and take the township examination, you have to bend your waist for five buckets of rice first.

Zhu Hao wanted to ask Gongsun Yi how much you tie up every month, but after thinking about it, Gongsun Yi will most likely not stay in the palace for a long time, and when he talks about money with scholars, he may directly blow his beard and stare at him.

Then I still don't ask.

In the afternoon, Gongsun Yi took a class, and when it came to recess, Zhu San jumped out to reveal the problem: "Mr. Gongsun, how much does my father give you every month?" I heard that before the Sui Jiaoxi, there were three taels of silver a month, and there was a lot of rice and white flour. ”

If someone else asked this question, Gongsun Yi would definitely avoid answering, and maybe he would be angry.

But now it is the "Xingwang Shizi" who asks, this is equivalent to half of his employer, he is also young and vigorous, and his temperament is more straightforward, and he replied directly: "The contemptible person is just a father-in-law, and he is not as good as the old man, and he ...... every month There are eight coins. ”

Immediately relieved Zhu Hao's doubts.

Eight coins of silver, almost ten taels a year, if you can stay in the palace for a long time, it can really improve your life, and the "money" is unlimited.
