Chapter 170: We have to ask my father for a letter of guilt
Inside the library.
This will already be a sea of people.
From the first floor to the sixth floor, they are divided into small compartments.
At the door of the cubicle, there are signs hanging one after another, on which are written "Book of Qin", "Book of Han", "Book of Tang", "Book of Song", "Collection of Wild History", "Engineering Studies", and "Collection of Agricultural Books......
These compartments clearly divide the tens of thousands of books in the entire building, but they also dazzle the crowd to read.
Outside the cubicle, there were rows of tables and chairs, and soon someone was sitting on them, holding a book in their hands, and began to read.
Zhu Di and Monk Daoyan, who came in in the crowd, were also shocked by such a grand scene, and couldn't help but look at Guo An on the side in surprise, "There are so many books?" ”
Guo An replied: "Your Highness, just this book, Weichen is still worried that it will not be enough!" ”
Zhu Di stared, looked around with joy on his face, and muttered to himself: "Enough, enough, we haven't seen so many books in the library in the Yingtian City Palace......
At the same time, in the middle of the first floor, a large stone monument was erected.
A group of gentry and merchants, with their heirs, were watching with excitement on their faces.
"Look, the sixth line of the fourth column is engraved with the inscription that our Zhang family donated 462 classics."
"Look, the eighth line of the sixth column is engraved that our Li family donated 312 classics......"
"Quick, Brother Zeng, there is actually Mr. Xuan's "Commentary on the Book" here?"
"Here are Liu Zhuo's "Ji Ji" and "Zhou Ji"!"
"Oh my God, this is Zhang Cang's "Xunzi" ......"
"Quick, there's still ...... on the second floor 3rd Floor ...... There is also a ...... on the fourth floor
With an exclamation, the Confucian students in the entire library seemed to have been awakened from their sleep, and all the Confucian students ran towards the cubicles with ecstatic faces.
"Woo ......"
A Confucian student directly hugged a book and cried, "I still remember that when I was a child, in order to borrow this book, I braved the heavy snow, walked more than 20 miles, borrowed it from my master's house, my hands and feet were frozen, and then I copied it overnight...... I didn't care about eating, so I sent my master back overnight......"
"Woo, the little brother too, in order to borrow Mr. Hengqu's "Jingxue Li Cave", the little brother took the only old hen left in the family and gave it to Master Zhang in the township, so that he could borrow it for two days......
The little brother is distressed...... Whining......
Who would have thought that with so many books now, we can borrow them at will without spending any money......"
"His Royal Highness King Yan is wise!"
"I'm blessed with the northern scholars......"
"Woo, thank you for the kindness of His Royal Highness King Yan......"
"Thank you Guo Changshi for your great kindness ......"
Although more than half of the readers didn't know Zhu Di and Guo An and others in the crowd, it didn't prevent them from crying excitedly and thanking them in their mouths.
Seeing this, Zhu Di and Guo An in the crowd couldn't help but look at each other.
Immediately, Zhu Di's face was full of joy.
However, Guo An noticed that some gentry had already subconsciously looked at him and Zhu Di, and hurriedly whispered to Zhu Di: "Your Highness, the scholars here are already on top, so it's better for me to avoid it?" ”
"What's the point?"
Zhu Di asked with some doubts.
Guo An hurriedly said: "Oh, Your Highness, don't care what you mean, these scholars will almost be carried away by so many books, if they know that Your Highness is here, and flock towards Your Highness, I can't protect Your Highness, Your Highness......"
Before he finished speaking, Guo An was keenly aware that more and more gentry and scholars were already looking at them.
Especially a few, or a few idiots in Wanping County!
"Student Yu Hong thanks His Highness for his grace of reconstruction! Thank you Guo Changshi for his merits for me as a scholar in Beiping Mansion! ”
"Student Yu Qiaosheng thanked His Highness for his kindness in reconstruction......"
"His Royal Highness King Yan and Guo Changshi are also here?"
A scholar asked with an earnest face: "Which one is His Royal Highness King Yan and Guo Changshi?" ”
On the side, a gentry spoke: "The two next to the great monk in the southeast corner are His Royal Highness King Yan and Guo Changshi. ”
"Great monk?"
A big monk directly made everyone look at Zhu Di and Guo An.
Monk Daoyan's face darkened, and he stepped back silently.
The scholars and gentry on the side also retreated in unison, and Zhu Di and Guo An were isolated.
Ma He, Jin Zhong and others changed their faces and hurriedly stood in front of Zhu Di and Guo An.
Well, now Zhu Di and Guo An are completely exposed in front of everyone.
A group of scholars suddenly had excited faces, and flocked towards Zhu Di and Guo An, Guo An subconsciously thought of those star-chasing fans in later generations.
"Stop!"
Jin Zhong shouted directly.
The group of scholars stopped at this time, but they still looked at Zhu Di and Guo An with fanatical faces.
"The student has no malicious intent, he just wants to thank His Highness and Guo Changshi for their reinvention in person."
"Yes, yes, His Royal Highness has collected so many classics, allowing us and other readers to watch them, and not charging any money, it is simply an ideal place for all the scholars in the world, students and others never dreamed that one day they would read books in this kind of library......"
"Students and others thank His Royal Highness and Guo Changshi for ......"
"We are Zhu Di, the king of Yan!"
Hearing this, Zhu Di directly pulled away Ma He and Jin Zhong in front of him, and pointed to Guo An on the side and said: "He is Guo An, this library building, and even the entire academy, were built by Guo Qing with all his strength."
We didn't expect such a grand library building.
I hope that you can study hard in the future, and either become a talented person like Guo Qing, or a few more middle and upper school people or jinshi ......"
"Students obey His Highness's orders."
A group of scholars hurriedly responded with excitement on their faces, and then looked at Guo An on the side.
Guo An smiled gently, and said loudly: "Everyone, we have spent a lot of effort to build this academy, and even spent tens of thousands of taels of silver to build this library building, so I hope that there will be a few more talents in my Beiping Mansion."
In the future, we will see each other more often, so let's read books in this library.
With His Royal Highness King Yan guarding Beiping Mansion, even if you can't get any fame in the imperial examination, as long as you have talents, you will not be buried.
Our generation of scholars should set up their hearts for heaven and earth, establish their lives for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations!
I hope that you will remember Mr. Hengqu's wise words......"
"Obey Guo Changshi's orders!"
All the readers couldn't help but be moved.
Young readers, except for a few people, are still full of passion and enthusiasm.
Zhu Di smiled again and said: "Okay, everyone go and read the book, this is also the first time we have seen the academy and the library, but we have to take a good look." ”
"His Royal Highness King Yan, please!"
"The students and others will not disturb His Highness......"
A group of readers said again and again.
Seeing this, Zhu Di nodded slightly, and then took Guo An and walked upstairs.
When Zhu Di and the others went upstairs, the scholars quickly dispersed and hurriedly flipped through the books they had just read.
Soon, the library building was silent, only a group of readers staring at excited eyes, holding their breath, and reading books in a fascination.
For a reader, it would be ecstatic to read a book that he had admired for a long time.
And now, in the entire library, there are at least thousands of books and masterpieces that they have admired for a long time.
They were already going crazy with joy.
In this era, although paper and printing technology have matured, it is still difficult for ordinary people and even some wealthy people to support.
Therefore, many people want to study and study, most of them rely on the knowledge learned in the school, and then the home school.
Naturally, people are very fond of collecting books, and many families like to collect books, and the larger the family, the longer the inheritance, the more books there are in the family.
As long as they are readers, they will subconsciously collect all kinds of books, hide them at home, and keep them secret, only for future generations to read.
As a result, even the most prominent family will not have many books in their homes, after all, with the energy of a family alone, there are not many books to be found.
Just these books in the library pavilion, Guo Anke borrowed from the Yan Wangfu, the Liu family, the Guo family, as well as the gentry, officials, merchants, and so many ministers of the Beijing Division......
Yes, even Liu Weiyuan, Nie Zishi and others were smacking their tongues when they looked at the vast sea of books in front of them.
The books they have read in their lives are less than one thousandth, or even one thousandth, in front of them.
"This academy, Ning Yi built it well!"
Standing in a corner of the library pavilion and looking at the grand scene in the library building, Liu Huiyuan couldn't help but sigh with admiration on his face.
"It's nature."
On the side, Guo's father nodded proudly.
"Please don't make a lot of noise."
On the side, someone frowned and reminded.
Liu Weiyuan and Guo's father were not annoyed, but smiled apologetically and walked upstairs.
When they were young, if someone dared to disturb them reading, they might be even more angry than the young man.
Upstairs, Zhu Di doesn't like to read, but he likes to look at the library full of books, and the people who are reading books like hungry and thirsty.
Therefore, he basically seemed to be watching the flowers, taking Guo An and Daoyan monks with him, and climbed all the way to the top before stopping.
"The academy is so grand, it's not in vain that we have spent so much money."
Standing in the corridor, looking down on the entire academy, Zhu Di's face was full of satisfaction.
Guo An replied: "Your Highness is satisfied." ”
"It's just that with such a large academy, there will definitely be more scholars and even children who will come here to study in the future.
In this way, in order to maintain the college, how much money do we have to spend every year! ”
As he spoke, a trace of distress flashed in Zhu Di's eyes.
Guo An smiled slightly, "However, in such a academy, how many children will complete their enlightenment every year, and how many scholars will succeed in learning?"
His Royal Highness is the Dean of the College, and they are nominally students of His Highness no matter what.
In this way, if any scholar dares to accuse His Highness without any basis in the future, thousands, or even tens of thousands, of His Highness's students will stand up and correct His Highness's name. ”
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Zhu Di's eyes lit up, "In this way, we are in Daming......"
Saying that, Zhu Di also realized something, and the smile on his face slowly converged.
"Guo Qing, we shouldn't be the dean of the academy!"
Guo An said: "But His Royal Highness has become the dean!" ”
"Alas......"
Zhu Di sighed heavily, "We have to ask my father for a letter of guilt!" ”
