"A scholar does not have to be an official, but an official must be a scholar. Those who are successful in their studies can also help the world and gain access to the world."

This sentence left by our ancestors illustrates an iron rule that has been accurate for thousands of years with an accuracy of 80%: If you want to be in the palace, the house, the generals, and the ministers, you must study hard and make progress every day.

In the system of the Han Empire, if you wanted to learn, there were generally only two ways: official school and private school.

As the name suggests, official schools are colleges set up by the Han Empire in various states, prefectures, and counties. These colleges are also called official schools. Official schools provide a good teaching environment for the emperor's relatives and officials' children, allowing them to grow into pillars of the empire. Of course,

, these official schools will also recruit some selected children from poor families and provide them with free education. However, the proportion of these people in the official schools can be said to be very small. It was not until the current emperor Liu Yan ascended the throne that the official schools gradually expanded.

The ratio of recruiting students from poor families. The most famous official school in the world is undoubtedly the Yangyi Academy in Chang'an, Gyeonggi Province. Its high status and prosperity of culture made Prime Minister Zhuge a hundred years ago directly use the stroke of his pen to directly

The Liangyi Academy was designated as a national study, and the previous owners of the Liangyi Academy enjoyed the lofty status and treatment of the Twelve Ministers of the Empire.

Private schools are also called private schools. There are various categories of private schools, but there are generally three types. First of all, hundreds of schools of thought and big gangs and sects will set up private schools to teach the essence of the school and cultivate young talents, in order to continue the inheritance of the sect.

Yes, what they learn is usually the essence of the sect; secondly, some dominant families, such as the Lingyuan Liu family, will open private schools, hire famous teachers with high salaries, and teach the children of the family civil and martial arts; finally, some common people who are a little wealthy and hope that their children will become successful.

We will raise funds voluntarily to hire some teachers with mediocre talents to teach their children some talents.

Therefore, the education system in the Han Empire was ranked in order of quality. The best was the Liangyi Academy, followed by official schools, private schools by scholars and private schools by noble families, and the last was rural private schools.

...

Zigui School, located in the north city of Lingyuan County, is the largest rural private school in Lingyuan City. It has thousands of books and the sound of children reading every day is endless.

In addition to being a prodigal son in the eyes of his parents, a big waste in the eyes of his brothers, and a 'good-for-nothing' in the eyes of his teachers, Liu Quansheng, who quietly escaped from the shocking chaos more than ten years ago, also has another identity, the college student whose son returned to school.

This school has been around since Liu Yi could remember. Neighbors recalled that the school was originally just three shabby houses abandoned by the Liu family in Lingyuan in the north city. In 329 AD, that is, eleven years ago, Liu Quansheng took his infant son with him.

Liu Yi settled here, repairing it in one year, making up for it in two years, and building it in three years. The thatched cottage had some appearance, and Liu Quansheng and his son had established a firm foothold in Beishi.

No one knew why the dignified Mr. Liu, Third Young Master, had abandoned the fine clothes and food half a city away, and had to come to Bei City to suffer this foreign crime. At first, everyone was curious and speculated, and rumors spread for a while. Suddenly, more than ten years passed, and the common people gradually

Now that I have become familiar with Mr. Liu Quansheng’s identity, I have forgotten the former Young Master Liu.

Liu Quansheng was a scholar. When he returned to Beishi eleven years ago, he had no living skills, so he could only make ends meet by eating the food from his neighbors. It can be said that as a child, Liu Yi ate and drank from hundreds of families.

Porridge, has suffered all the fireworks in the world.

Later, Liu Quan was born in a thatched cottage and opened a school. He taught students for free and taught everyone regardless of class. He could also be considered as repaying his fellow villagers and neighbors. The neighbors were all ordinary people who had a hard time making a living. Although they felt that studying was useless, they did not hinder it in their daily work.

In life, if they have any strength, they will take care of the father and son.

Later, in the school, Wang Sanbao, who was still a little Huang Biao, had learned a lot in the thatched cottage and had a strong memory. The governor of Huaxing County was amazed at his appearance as a prodigy and specially gave him a job as a book boy with a salary of 30 dan.

For poor families, this was like a phoenix hatching from an egg. Liu Quansheng's thatched cottage grew rapidly and became famous in Bei City. Some families who could not afford to go to school sent their children to Zigui School one after another in the hope that their children would become successful.

Liu Quansheng is also easy to talk to. Regardless of whether he can afford the tuition or not, he will arrange a seat for the children. For some children from surrounding villages and towns who come to school, this gentleman will also provide them with a delicious lunch.

In 334 AD, the neighbors took advantage of Maodong's opportunity to build a tile-roofed house for Liu Quansheng, and renovated the thatched cottage. With the help of everyone, Zigui Academy became the largest academy in Lingyuan City and even Huaxing County. Liu Quansheng did not forget his roots and continued to teach.

He didn't take any money, so he got the name Mr. Da.

In 335 AD, Wangbei Tower and Qingyin Pavilion were both completed in the north city of Lingyuan. Liu Quansheng was a frequent visitor and often danced in writing. His writing, painting, wine and poetry were outstanding. Lingyuan's dignitaries gradually began to pay attention to them.

Think of this great scholar who once held an important official position in the empire.

In 337 AD, the county governor Yingzhi worshiped Mr. Da as the Confucian scholar of Huaxing County, with a salary of 300 shi and a yellow ribbon with a bronze seal. This helped Liu Quansheng return to officialdom. However, Liu Quan had many ups and downs in the officialdom during his lifetime.

He was a low-ranking official, so he had no pampering attitude. Although he indulged in drinking and having fun, he was sensible about both public and private affairs. Everything remained the same, and he was even more loved from then on.

The sun is shining brightly, the fallen flowers are colorful, the sound of reading is loud every day in the school, and the schoolboys are swimming in the vast ocean. Zigui School is like a giant ship riding the wind and waves, sailing away to deliver students to their ideal shore.

Liu Quansheng has always believed that perseverance will lead to success. One day, his ten-year plan will take root, and his long-cherished wish will grow into a towering tree together with these children, breaking through the cage and reaching into the sky.

It took ten years for the tree to become a tree. Over time, going to Zigui Academy to observe the studies gradually became a must-visit attraction for the children of Jianghu who went to Huaxing County. Whenever they came here and saw the handsome and handsome gentleman, they would always say sincerely: "How wonderful."

A Taoist temple welcomes immortal visitors, while the study hall conceals Confucianism!

As for why Liu Sangong didn't return home and why he fell into such a miserable state, it was always a family matter. After more than ten years, no one asked anymore!

...

A century ago, the great governor Zu Ti heard the chicken dance when he was young, studied and thought, and eventually became one of the two invincible empires that conquered the south and the north. During the fierce battle between the Qin and Han Dynasties, the powerful northern country Qin rushed forward three hundred miles, missing by one mile.

Diandian wanted to drink from the Yellow River. Shenwu Emperor Liu Chen was unwilling to give up his ancestral homeland, so he promoted Zuti to the rank of governor. Zuti was ordered to turn the tide when he was in danger, and helped the Han Dynasty to fall into decline. After success, he did not make money, nor did he

Seek power, do not buy property, do not receive titles, leave with a seal, live a straight and upright life, and win a reputation before and after death.

Liu Quansheng always taught his students: In this life, the governor should be the leader, work hard for the people, serve the country for the ministers, and be loyal to the officials!

Because of this, over the past ten years or so, most of the students who have graduated from Zigui Academy have good natures and few have done evil.

...

The area around Zigui School is shaded by pine trees.

Liu Quansheng and his son lived in a two-entry wooden house at the back of Zigui School. There was no clutter or extra furnishings in the house. There was an earthen kang, a big pot, an oil lamp, a box of classics, a fat horse, and walls.

A hanging sword may be the most valuable item in the house, but Liu Yi has never seen it unsheathed, so it is probably extremely rusty!

Adding two sets of bedding, a few bowls and chopsticks, and four or five chickens, it was the father and son's entire possessions. In this peaceful and prosperous age in a narrow sense, it is not an exaggeration to describe the family as living with only four walls!

Zigui Academy is adjacent to the butcher Li Daniu on the left, the veterinarian Huangfu Ke on the right, the Lingyuan City Wall to the north, and a road to the south leading directly to Wangbei Tower. The geographical location is not very good, and is even a bit remote.

Near Zhu Zhichi, the most serious and hard-working Xiao Huang in the school are Li Erniu, the son of Li Daniu, Huangfu Lu, the son of Huangfu Ke, plus Yingcheng, the son of Wang Sanbao and the county governor Yingzhi,

The four little Huangs had the best relationship with Liu Yi and had excellent qualifications. Liu Quansheng always regarded them as pillar talents to train.

Li Erniu, Huangfu Lu, Ying Cheng, and Wang Sanbao, together with the child king Liu Yi, were laughed at by the county magistrate Ying Zhi and the people of Lingyuan as the "Five Zigui".

The name "Zi Gui Wu Primary School" was passed down again and again among the young Huangs in Bei City, especially when Wang Sanbao received his salary at the county governor's house, and Huangfu Lu wrote the inscription for Qingyin Pavilion with a stroke of his pen, a commotion arose in Lingyuan.

Wealthy families like the Liu family naturally disdain the craze of sending their children back and forth, but those rich peasant hawkers who hope that their children will be successful bring their children back and forth like a tide. Even Li Erniu's father, the butcher Li Daniu, pays 100,000 yuan every month.

The pork given to Liu Quansheng was a little extra heavy.

In the process of preaching and teaching, Liu Quansheng not only gained popularity in Huaxing County, but also recruited young talents with excellent qualifications, and prepared a talent reserve for the storm that may come one day in the future. It can be said that he killed two birds with one stone.

Of course, as he had a lot of money in the past two years, Liu Quansheng couldn't help but become more and more unrestrained. When he went to Qingyin Pavilion and Wangbei Tower for a drink, he always talked about Du Kang and Lao Baiqianer.

All the money was spent on Liu Quansheng's drinking, and naturally life was still not getting better.

For so many years, the father and son have just made do with each other and survived to this day.

...

Ordinary Zhongding people do not record time so accurately, and their work and rest depend on the crowing of the rooster, and this is also the case when Zigui goes to school.

The rooster sings three times: the first sings at the end of the Chou hour, the second sings at the beginning of the Mao hour, and the third sings at the beginning of the Chen hour.

Liu Quansheng was very strict in managing Liu Yi's studies.

From the age of six, Liu Quansheng asked Liu Yi to sing as soon as he could, and then go to bed when he was dark. In addition to helping out in large gatherings, sacrificing his mother on festivals, and taking a ten-day bath, Liu Yi would read and explain until noon every day, and then take a nap in the afternoon to wake up again.

Therefore, it is important to keep strong and healthy. After dinner, you can invite your friends to play in the streets. This is the case every day, rain or shine.

Years of study and inquiry enabled Xiao Liu Yi to read hundreds of poems and books at an early age, understand the path of life, and be able to hang out in Wangbei Tower with ease.

Since this year, Liu Yi sometimes leads the red racing rabbit to follow his father in the countryside. Sometimes his father takes him to argue with unknown strange old men, or to fight in the chess field. His life is quite enjoyable!

Dongfang Chunsheng, who was severely beaten by someone sent by Liu Ruisheng, handed over the power of teaching Dongfang Yu how to read and write to Liu Quansheng while he was recuperating in Qingyin Pavilion.

As a result, Liu Yi and Dongfang Yu became classmates, book friends, and playmates.

Many years later, the two became close friends who looked at each other thousands of miles apart!

However, at the beginning of their friendship, Dongfang Yu's sharp-tongued, arrogant and savage attitude made Liu Yi feel like "the Zhu Tower is surrounded by sparse foils, lying down and watching the torrential rain coming from thousands of mountains".

His ‘eldest brother’ status is a bit precarious!
