Northern Dynasties

Since he wanted to recruit Yang Jian, Li Xiao casually asked a few popular elementary school questions in a serious and responsible manner, wanting to see the kid's specific knowledge before teaching him in accordance with his aptitude.

But after asking several questions one after another, Yang Jian didn't respond at all, but just stared blankly at Li Xiao who asked the question.

This performance is really not good. Even if Yang Jian has not yet undergone serious systematic enlightenment, he should have some common sense knowledge under the influence of daily life.And like some well-educated and talented children, they have even begun to learn the classics and meanings.

Faced with his son's behavior, Yang Zhong felt a little ashamed, and raised his hand to slap his son's head hard. Yang Jian's head fell down and almost hit the table.

After Dugu Xin saw this, he was displeased and said: "There is no one who is born with knowledge, so you have to go to school. Your father and son are unfamiliar with each other, and you can't get closer with them if you just discipline them harshly."

Then he pointed to Yang Jian and said: "Mr. Renlue asked about you, and shook his head if he didn't know. You should show others what you know, so that people will know your talent and know how to treat you."

When Yang Jian listened to Dugu Xin's words, his eyes were obviously more flexible and serious than when he listened to his father talking to others.Seeing this scene in his eyes, Li Tai couldn't help but be amused, this kid himself is not good looking, but he is still a handsome dog, is he not worthy of discipline if he is not handsome?
After listening to Dugu Xin's words, Yang Jian nodded first, then turned his head to look at Li Xiao who was asking the question before and shook his head, then sat upright at the table, looking straight ahead, his small face became dignified and serious, and his mouth was full of richness. Rhythmic recitation: "Good man! Why is he called Tathagata..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, he began to recite it incessantly, at least a thousand words in one breath, but he still didn't mean to stop.Although Li Tai couldn't understand what the kid was reciting, his speech was fluent and natural, obviously it wasn't something he made up casually, so there was nothing wrong with his memory.

Seeing this scene, Yang Zhong nodded and laughed in relief.After Li Tai saw this, he smirked inwardly, I can't even understand, can you understand what this kid is reading?
"This is the "Mahaparinirvana Sutra". I have memorized the Mahayana scriptures at a young age, and I have a very spiritual connection with the Buddha."

Dugu Xin also knew the nature of this eldest son-in-law's ignorance, so he opened his mouth to explain briefly, and said to Yang Zhong: "This son was born in the general family, and the food and drink will inevitably carry his evil karma with him, but he has learned to practice diligently since he was a child. Accumulate blessings for yourself. Even if it is short of human communication, it must not be regarded as stupid!"

It can be seen that Duguxin still likes Yang Jian, and after Yang Zhong heard the old boss's evaluation of his son, he also showed a gratified smile on his face, and immediately raised his hand and slapped his son on the back of the head. Show comfort.

Seeing Yang Jian's head with the horns stuck in it shaking back and forth again, Li Tai felt a little startled. You must know that his father's iron palm can even pull out the tongue of a beast. Slapped his son's head into a concussion, no wonder he was fostered in a nunnery since he was a child.

Li Xiao saw that although this boy was taciturn, he had no problem with his memory, so he smiled and said that he could be accepted into the academy.He himself does not regard this school as a political cause, in addition to reorganizing scriptures and books, he also creates a place for relatives, friends and children to receive education and study.

Yang Zhong was overjoyed when he heard the words, he hastily ordered the servants who had been waiting outside to come up to the hall to offer the gift of confinement, and pulled his son to kowtow to Li Xiao who was in the banquet.

When Li Tai saw this scene, he immediately felt that Yang Zhong was also a ghost. He was full of praise when he saw the prosperity of Zhou Xue when he was in Jingzhou before, but when he returned to Chang'an, he held his son's head down and worshiped his own father. Am I not qualified to discipline your son?
Li Xiao was also caught off guard. There were quite a few apprentices in the academy, and not everyone wanted to form such a close master-student relationship with him. In fact, he himself rarely participated in teaching.

But because of Dugu Xin's recommendation, coupled with the enthusiasm of Yang's father and son, he also accepted this disciple with a smile, and presented this disciple with several volumes of scriptures and righteousness books in class. At that time, you can go directly to the room to listen to his lectures on the knowledge of scriptures.

After receiving Yang Zhong and his son, Li Xiao was about to leave for the Longyuan Academy outside the city.

Because Li Taixin borrowed more than 1 volumes of books from Jiangling in his middle age. Although the books were still stored in Jingzhou, Li Tai also organized people to copy copies by hand and sent them back to Guanzhong continuously, and concentrated them in the Longyuan Academy. Carry out more detailed and in-depth reorganization.

As the owner of the school, Li Xiao naturally became the host of this reorganization work.Moreover, both the imperial court and the Taiwan government have dispatched courtiers and scholars to the Longyuan Academy to assist in the compilation of books, so Li Xiao has been quite busy recently, if not for his son returning home after a long absence, he would not be able to spare time to return to the city.

After discussing a few words, the group planned to go to the academy together.Although Duguxin lives in Zhuguo and Da Sima now, he is an out-and-out idler. If it is not a special festival, he will even go to court depending on his mood.But Yang Zhong wanted to strike while the iron was hot and send his son to the academy in order to get educated and become a talent as soon as possible.

As for Li Tai, as the real big boss behind the school, of course, he also needs to conduct a field trip to see the current development of the school.It must be known that his own hopes for the academy are more complex and ambitious than his father's.

The security situation around Chang'an has always been worrying, and it is not safe because it is located at the foot of the emperor. Although the terrain of Longshouyuan is high, it is not suitable for farming because there is no river passing by. are relatively barren.

However, as Li Tailiu let his slaves run the business here, the original area gradually became lively.Especially after he returned from Longyou, he used Longshouyuan as a distribution place for Longyou business travel goods, which made Longshouyuan more densely populated.

But when he decided to open a school in Longshouyuan and collect and compile books, he transferred all business affairs to the southern suburbs of Chang'an, making Longshouyuan a quiet place to concentrate on learning the classics.

But today's Longshouyuan is far from quiet. The numerous books here have attracted many people from Guanzhong to visit, and some enamored scholars even linger here, burying their heads in scriptures every day.

When the group boarded Longshouyuan, they saw Li Licheng leading a group of house slaves to patrol the surrounding area and return. The carriage in the team was still loaded with a lot of sundries, and there were many anxious people behind the carriage.

Today's Li Licheng is fully in charge of the school's personnel and miscellaneous affairs, income and expenditure of money and grain, and other matters. Someone who recognized Li Tai rushed forward to pay homage and shouted loudly: "Someone built a hut privately on the original land because of his love of learning. He borrowed books from the school library for the sake of getting closer. He definitely did not intentionally invade the original land. , please forgive me, Governor Li!"

Li Tai didn't know what was going on, so he turned to Li Licheng, but before Li Licheng could explain, Li Xiao had already said, "I told Xiaoxie to do this. There are hundreds of people. One member is recommended to borrow the books in the library, but when they get a volume, they scramble to copy it and pass it on..."

Li Tai couldn't help frowning when he heard this, let them copy if they like, even if they occupy a little land on the original land, it's nothing, anyway, he didn't get the land on Longshou Yuan by formal means, and distributed it to everyone Use can also accumulate a good reputation.Why did his father suddenly become so cruel and petty, so he wanted to search and arrest people?
"It's like this. Most of these huts in the original place are built with crude grass and trees. It is difficult to keep out the cold after winter. Most of these students are poor in the state and have no means to keep out the cold. Some have to light fire and stay up all night in order to finish copying as soon as possible. It is very easy to cause fire. A few days ago, more than ten thatched cottages in the original north were burned down, so Uncle asked me to check these privately built thatched cottages as soon as possible, so as not to leave any more harm."

Even though Li Licheng explained again, he pointed to the few beggars and said: "As for the students and residents, if they are willing to work in the library, they can use their ability to edit and correct words. If you want, you can temporarily borrow a house in the shelter for the winter, and then release it in the spring. I have already explained the reason to them before, and it seems that they are still suspicious, so I came to Boshan to beg for mercy."

Li Tai understood this only after hearing this, so he led these students to him and explained to them personally.After hearing this, these students gradually believed it, and soon their worries disappeared, they were overjoyed, and thanked Renyi one after another.

I can't blame these people for being suspicious. Public security around Gyeonggi is already poor, and many wealthy and powerful families secretly arrest homeless people to serve as domestic slaves.Things like what Li Licheng said are as beautiful as fairy tales, completely inconsistent with normal people's thinking logic, and naturally people can't believe it.

But now Li Tai is famous all over the world, even the people in Luli know that he has great talents and great achievements, and he is a famous minister of the country. Since he made such a guarantee himself, it is naturally easy to be convinced.Even if we take a step back, even if Li Tai deceived them and wanted to trick them into Zhuangzhong as part of the trilogy, if they can be mixed up with Cangtou's cronies in the trilogy, it would be a step up for them.

After this episode, the group continued on the road. Dugu Xin first praised Li Xiao's benevolent strategy, then pointed to the poor students who were eagerly following behind the team, approached Li Xiao and sighed: "In troubled times There are many demons and evil spirits, even if you treat people sincerely, you may not be able to win people's trust. Boshan's words are pleasing to people, and they make people follow suit physically and mentally.

Hearing Dugu Xin's words, Li Xiao looked at his son riding the horse in front of the team. There was relief and anticipation in his eyes, but also anxiety. Blessings and family glory. But if you make more progress, you will inevitably have uncertainties. As Da Sima said, I can't predict what good fortune will be in the coming year, it's just calm."

The performance of the children in the family is very good, which can naturally make the parents very happy, but if it is [-], [-] or even more, it will inevitably exceed the cognitive level of ordinary people.

Some people will beat and scold the discipline, not allowing Erlang to be so extraordinary and unconventional, and only regard what he knows as the safest and safest.However, Li Xiao suffered drastic changes and was tossed and wandered in various places. He knew the general trend and could not avoid it.

While talking, the group arrived at Longyuan Academy.This academy was not simply expanded from the original Longshou Village, but was rebuilt at a selected location, covering an area of ​​more than ten hectares, not inferior to a small town.

The entire library is divided into different functional areas, the core of which is the library building located in the middle of the library. Since its completion, it can be regarded as the largest public and private library in the entire Kansai. Now the collection of books has already exceeded Tens of thousands of volumes, but the occupied attic space is less than one-tenth.

Surrounding the surrounding area of ​​the library are different teaching areas for elementary school, classics, history, literature, philosophers, and six arts.Those who are in charge of teaching are those Shiliu scholars who are in the government and in the field, and come to borrow books because of their reputation.

The cost of maintaining a library is undoubtedly huge, and many rare ancient books are even more difficult to find. However, Li and his son do not want to operate the library for profit. Orphan copies are not allowed to be taken out of the library.

Of course, the so-called free is not absolute. The visiting bachelors have to pay a certain time cost, or participate in the compilation of the collection, or teach in the academy.As for the students who are studying in the library, they need to pay some tuition fees to serve as part of the daily expenses of the library.

Today, in each teaching department of the school, the two majors, namely the elementary school and the six arts, have the largest number of students.Children under the age of ten are often enrolled in elementary schools. Their knowledge is not systematic and they have not been deeply influenced by the world, so they can teach calmly.As for the Six Arts, they are much more interesting than simple classics and historical literature. They improve one's overall quality and skills, so they are also highly sought after by the upstarts of the times.

Mengxue Academy also adopts a boarding system. In order to prevent students from comparing their family status with each other, family members are not allowed to send them to the school.Yang Zhong wasn't bothered about this, anyway, his son had been in foster care for several years, and after telling his son to be obedient in the school, he followed Dugu Xin to the school's shooting hall to play and enjoy.

"The owner of the village has returned!"

Liu Min's son Liu Ang was one of the first children to be fostered in Li Tai's family. Although he was transferred to Longshouyuan, he adapted quickly. Therefore, he is currently serving as the monitor of the school and was sent to pick up new classmates. When he saw After Li Tai, he immediately ran up to him with a look of surprise on his face, took Li Tai's wrist and said expectantly: "Recently, there have been rumors in the school about the great achievements of the village owner. I told them that I have lived with the village owner for many years, but they didn't believe it. , can the owner of the village come to the dormitory with me to prove it?"
