Chapter 222 Chickens and rabbits are in the same cage and open the mountain gate
Ten miles outside the capital, at the foot of a green mountain.
Qingshan is nameless, so Yang Dong named Qingshan Lanxiang Mountain by the way.
Although the name sounded a little strange, Yang Dong felt that it was very reasonable.
Lanxiang Academy under Lanxiang Mountain, is it unreasonable?
At this moment, although the door of Lanxiang Academy under Lanxiang Mountain is still closed, there are already many students gathered in front of the door.
They may hold the scriptures in their hands and read them aloud; or lean against a tree, and close your eyes; A few people were even more interested, and they actually got together to tease the crickets.
"Do you think this Lanxiang Academy is really as good as advertised?"
One of the scholars picked up the topic, and immediately other students joined the discussion.
"I think that this Lanxiang Academy is probably not worthy of its name. Although it is backed by the palace, it still has a shallow foundation after all. And in our Great Zhou Capital, isn't the most important thing to lack is the academy? ”
Hearing this, many students nodded in agreement, but some raised objections.
"I don't think so. As we all know, it is true that there are many academies in the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but I would like to ask you, among so many academies, are there academies that are not limited to their origins? ”
"This ......"
As soon as these words came out, a look of hesitation flashed on the faces of many people.
Although I don't know if Lanxiang Academy is deceiving everyone. But this alone does not restrict origin, which can be regarded as a precedent.
And this is why many children from poor families gather here.
I'm afraid others don't know, but only the children of the poor family know in their hearts that if they want to get ahead, they must either find a good teacher, and then study hard for ten years; or participate in the triennial imperial examination and strive for fame.
However, these two paths, no matter which one to take, are not simple and require a lot of money.
But the problem is, they are all from poor families, how can they take out so much silver at once?
So at this time, Lanxiang Academy was born.
No limit on status, no limit on age. As long as you can pass the exams of the college, you can join Lanxiang College.
And there is no charge for food and housing.
Many of the poor's children admit that they are moved.
Although the reputation of Lanxiang Academy is, they are still a little vigilant.
But when I thought that behind this was the one on the dragon chair, I was relieved one by one.
meanwhile
In the College,
Yang Dong stood on Lanxiang Mountain, looking at the scene outside the academy gate.
Yao Jia stood on tiptoe, put a long robe on him, and said worriedly:
"Yang Gong, let's go back quickly. It's cold here, and if you stay for a long time, you will inevitably hurt your body. ”
Yang Dong shook his head slightly, and his eyes always fell on the students outside the gate of Lanxiang Academy.
"Don't panic, let my father observe again."
"If Lin Chunqiu's old dog wants to target me, he will definitely not let go of such a God-given opportunity for Lanxiang Academy to open the mountain."
"Since this is the case, Lin Chunqiu's people want to hide among these students."
Thinking of this, he looked at it carefully again.
It's just that he stared at the tea, but he didn't find anything abnormal.
Sure enough, Lin Chunqiu, an old dog, still has some wrists!
Yang Dong pursed his lips in interest, and a pair of eyes began to burst out with bright light.
It's good, it's quite hidden, isn't it?
Wait, Master will never let your plot succeed!
Yang Dong secretly made up his mind in his heart, and then raised his head to look at the time.
Calculating the time, it is almost auspicious.
He was just about to speak, when the door of Lanxiang Academy made a dull sound.
Then this dull door gradually opened to the students under the impetus of teachers and students.
Such a majestic scene suddenly made the eyes of the students present widen one by one.
They have also seen a lot of academies, but who do you see when they build academies and build such a heavy gate? I'm afraid that the gate at the gate of the capital city is not as strong as this!
As for the interior decoration of the college,
The moment they stepped into Lanxiang Academy, they were completely intoxicated.
Different from the traditional black-and-white freehand style of the academy, the construction of Lanxiang Academy uses the latest cement made by Yang Dong.
It is precisely because of the existence of cement that the entire Lanxiang Academy has built a magnificent appearance. Angular straight lines with iconic columns from the Roman period.
It can be said that the architectural design of Lanxiang Academy, in a sense, has gone beyond some of the current era.
Even compared to the Forbidden City, it is not bad at all, and it can be said that each has its own advantages and disadvantages.
"Here...... Is it really a college? ”
Looking at the huge and shocking scene in front of them, Zhao Yu and his party, who entered the door in the first wave, expressed their yearning and surprise for Lanxiang Academy.
With such a magnificent atmosphere, what if the teachers are weaker?
Besides, His Majesty has invested so much silver in it, and he will certainly not let it go to waste.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yu and his party couldn't help but smile on their cheeks.
With the same mentality as them, there are Sun Qi and others in the second wave, as well as other students who came to admire them.
After seeing the academy, most of them unconsciously put a smile on their cheeks.
This place is really nice!
It's a pity that when you join the academy, you still need to take an exam.
Little did they know, however, that just half an hour later, the most painful experience of their lives was about to appear.
After sorting the seats, Yang Dong personally handed the test papers to the teachers of the academy.
The teachers waited for a moment, and then handed out the test papers in their hands.
It's just that the candidates, no matter what, can't figure it out is that every time the teacher sends out the test papers, there will be a weird smile on their faces.
"The exam will take place for one hour, so please answer it as soon as possible."
It's only been an hour?
Many students' faces showed a look of surprise.
They take the exam on weekdays, and the answer time starts at least three hours.
It's only been an hour, and it's not enough!
But since it is Lanxiang Academy's independent proposition, they can't say anything.
As a result, many candidates came back to their senses and focused all their attention on the test papers.
It's okay not to look at it, but after looking at it, they are completely dumbfounded.
Because the content on the test paper is not the poems and songs that are commonly examined, or the editorials of some famous quotes.
And lying on their test papers at the moment are one after another arithmetic questions that make people's minds flutter when they look at them.
"Today there are pheasants and rabbits in the same cage, there are thirty-five heads on the top, and ninety-four feet on the bottom, ask the pheasants and rabbits how much they are?"
"I don't know how many things are there today, two of the three or three numbers are left, three of the five or five numbers are left, and two of the seven or seven numbers are left, ask the geometry of things?"
Some people died, but not completely......
