"Your Majesty, the Ming Imperial Academy recruits a preparatory class, and it will take half a month of training, and then set up an entrance exam, but anyone who passes can be enrolled, and they all have to go to the Ming Imperial Academy."

Zhu Di couldn't care about it, and asked, "You Guozijian can also do this, and the future Jinshi examination does not necessarily have to be a test of scripture and history, and in the future, the imperial court will definitely take the arithmetic, science and the like." ”

Zhu Di was afraid that it would hit people too hard at once, so he said step by step, "You are a doctor who cultivates talents for the country, you also go and ask Xia Yuanji what kind of talents they want, last time, Xia Yuanji was still complaining here, saying that he saw that His Royal Highness was keeping accounts in a very simple way, and he also wanted to learn to use it, but as a result, no one would." ”

Xia Yuanji also said in front of him that some people in the yamen, when it comes to qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, are the way, but when they start to do things, they can't do anything, and every time they come back after going to the Ming Imperial Academy, they don't like anything.

It's no wonder that his youngest son says every time that Lao Xia is a wonderful person, and he is indeed a wonderful person!

Song Fuli originally came to sue the Ming Imperial Academy, but as a result, he was taught a lesson by Zhu Di. Although the rhetoric is not so intense, the accusation is already very obvious, inside and out, it is to say that the current teaching style of Guozijian can no longer meet the needs of the court and the country.

After he went back, he summoned the secretary of the Guozijian and others to discuss countermeasures, these people heard that he had entered the palace, everyone was looking forward to it, the best, the emperor sent a message, everything to drop out of school, the court will never hire in the future.

Seeing that the sacrificial wine was back, wilting, listless, and sighing, everyone became nervous and rushed to inquire.

"What did the emperor say? Are you planning to punish the Ming Imperial Academy, or are these students making trouble? ”

I think that back then, during the Hongwu Dynasty, the students of Guozijian did not want to quit school, but if they made mistakes, they would be severely punished, the most famous of which was Zhao Lin, because he couldn't stand and couldn't get used to Guozijian's strict discipline of students, so he posted a big-character poster.

According to the rules of the Guozijian, Zhao Lin should be punished with a hundred rods, and then sent to the army. However, Emperor Taizu felt that this was not enough to deter the students, so he beheaded Zhao Lin at the gate of Guozijian and ordered all the students to watch.

It's only been a few days, and there are still people in Guozijian who dare to drop out of school!

Song Fuli shook his head, and after the conveners sat down together, he said, "Now the court is becoming more and more dissatisfied with us, and the emperor also told me, saying that the household department is still complaining, and some officials talk about qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, and they are the Tao, and they can't even calculate the accounts." This is still a competition for the post of official. ”

"What then? I can't say that the country is not going to do it, let's close the door, this is too funny. ”

Yes, if the Ming Dynasty is closed in the hands of these people, how will they have the face to meet people?

Song Fuli suddenly thought of Fang Xiaoru, and said busily, "Wait for me to go and see Fang Xiaoru and ask him how the Ming Imperial Academy is teaching students?" ”

The attached primary school of the Ming Imperial Academy implements two days off every seven days, so that the children can consolidate their knowledge on their own, and at the same time, participate in more social activities, learn more about the world, and don't die studying.

But Fang Xiaoru only took one day off every seven days, and one of the days he used to clean the classroom and go to Zhu Gaoxian to help, and because of this, he learned a lot of scientific things.

His two sons, Fang Zhongxian and Fang Zhongyu, were also able to enter the Ming Imperial Academy, and like Zhu Zhaoxuan, they first did chores, and then slowly became Zhu Gaoxian's students, and this time they went to Beijing with them.

When Song Fuli came, he was sitting in the courtyard basking in the sun, and his eldest grandson was beside him, and he was teaching his eldest grandson to read and write.

Seeing Song Fuli, Fang Xiaoru hurriedly got up to greet him, in the past two years, he has only done small things, and he has not had much contact with his colleagues, basically, if others don't look for him, he won't take the initiative to find others.

"Don't hide it, I came here because I have something to ask!" Song Fuli bowed.

Fang Xiaoru, the word is straight.

"You're welcome, please!"

Fang Xiaoru raised his hand to invite him, and asked his grandson to put away the textbook, but Song Fuli saw the textbook and stretched out his hand and said, "Can you lend me a look?" ”

Fang Xiaoru's little grandson was quite reluctant, holding the book, but seeing his grandfather nodding, he let go of his hand.

Song Fuli didn't know many of the words on it, "Please use the vertical form to calculate the following questions", and then there were some symbols that he couldn't understand.

"It's ......"

"This is a math book attached to the college, I asked the dean to give me a copy, and I will come back to teach my grandson in advance, which can be regarded as a joke for my grandson!"

Song Fuli saw that the child was staring at the book in his hand intently, he hurriedly returned the book to the child, and said with a smile, "Xizhi, if I ask for advice, you should know everything!" ”

"There is no end to what you say!"

The two entered the study, the servant came in and served tea, and the two of them each took a sip of tea, and Song Fuli said the current predicament of Guozijian and said, "The students are going to drop out of school, and Guozijian really can't sustain it." ”

After Song Fuli finished speaking, he carefully looked at Fang Xiaoru's expression, and saw that his expression remained unchanged, as if he had already known what he said.

Could it be that he knows all about the affairs of the country's eunuchs?

Is it so fast?

"Xizhi, you tell me directly, in this matter, did the Ming Imperial Academy have premeditated to compete with our country's sub-prison for students?" Song Fuli was furious, "Even if the dean of the Ming Imperial Academy is the current fourth prince, it is too deceitful to do such a thing!" ”

Fang Xiaoru hurriedly raised his eyes to look at Song Fuli, "Why do you say this?" The content taught by the Daming Imperial Academy and the Guozijian is very different, I have witnessed it with my own eyes in the Daming Imperial Academy over the years, and the academy is not worried about having no students, so how can I rob it with the Guozijian? ”

Song Fuli said, "You are not surprised by what I just said, didn't you expect it?" ”

"Yes, I expected it a long time ago, because I knew what the knowledge taught in my academy was, it was all application-oriented, which was very different from Guozijian, and I knew that sooner or later there would be this day."

Song Fuli didn't understand, "How should I talk about this?" ”

"I am only responsible for the attached elementary school, every time the Fourth Highness comes to teach, I will be on the side to listen, not to mention anything else, now the work of buying vegetables at home every day falls on my head, just because I am fast and accurate in arithmetic every time."

Song Fuli said in his heart, what kind of ability is this?

But he saw that Fang Xiaoru was so calm, he already looked down on Fang Xiaoru in his heart, and he couldn't get any support here, so he got up and said goodbye.

Of course, Fang Xiaoru saw the disdain that Song Fuli dyed between his eyebrows and eyes, if he had changed before, he would have to take it to heart, but now, he didn't care at all, but personally sent Song Fuli out.
