Chapter 348: Shilin's Strange Flower, Called the Strange Master
"Hey, it's really cool now. The young master of the Cao family offends whoever he offends, but he actually offends him..."
Jia Lan turned his head and recognized that the speaker was a senior Juren from Diecui Academy, so he raised his hand and said, "Senior brother seems to know who the Juren of the Di tribe is, but I have never seen this person. I don't know if it is possible."
inform?"
Seeing that it was Jia Lan, the man hurriedly returned the greeting: "Jia Jieyuan has never been to the Imperial College, so he doesn't know for sure. In fact, this Di tribe's son is Ye Guangting, the son of Ye Kedun, the son of the Imperial College."
Yecton?
Jia Lan almost didn't react when he heard such a strange name, but Qin Zhong remembered something and reminded him, and Jia Lan suddenly woke up.
"Ye Kedon, is he the one who is called the strange master?!"
Juzi nodded and said with a smile: "It's the strange master."
"It's a strange master!" After hearing the identity of the Di tribe's son, not only Jia Lan, but also Liang Yong and Qin Zhong were shocked.
Ye Kedun, who offered wine at the Imperial Academy, is a legend even among the current Zhongzhou scholars. He was born in the Ye He tribe of the fourth Hu Lun tribe. In terms of origin, the Ye He tribe is one of the oldest tribes of the Di tribe. In the time of Jialan's later generations,
Among the lines, the woman who ruled Middle-earth for half a century was from the Yehe tribe.
However, her ancestors were actually from the Tumut clan of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, and she joined the Ye He tribe after she got married. This is also the origin of the different surname Ye He.
Talking back to Ye Kedun, although his ancestor was just an ordinary horseman, he was lucky enough to escape when he killed Ye He in Jianzhou, because the strategy of Jianzhou was only to kill the upper class of Ye He, but spared the ordinary people.
, but as a defeated tribe, the people of Yehe were often bossed around by Jianzhou and treated as slaves.
If it were in Jialan's original time and space, this bullshit chain of discrimination would have taken hold with the entry of the Di people into the country, and the cake would have been multiplied many times during the spoils-sharing stage. Due to the increase in the number of exploited classes, and the addition of Ye He
Although the tribe and Jianzhou are enemies, they have been married for generations, so the people of Ye He's tribe can also enjoy dividends and become superiors.
But in this time and space, Emperor Gao of the Xia Dynasty led four kings and eight princes to appear, and the army was overwhelming. The Di tribe first hated Jiangnan, and then lost in a fierce battle in the Central Plains, and then was defeated by the Yang of Yanshan Mountain.
The conflicts between the tribes sharply intensified, and tribes such as the Yehe tribe that were over-recruited began to rebel.
When the Great Xia Dynasty conquered Liaodong, Ye Kedun's great-grandfather drove dozens of good horses that were originally sent to the Beidi Army to join the Xia Army. He was awarded the general banner for his merits, and later became the governor of the town. In Ye Kedun's generation, he began to serve as a military officer.
In the article. Ye Kedun himself was famous for his Chinese style in the Shuntianfu Provincial Examination in the ninth year of Jiayou's 9th year, but failed in the joint examination three years later. He said as Wang Shouren said, "The world is ashamed of not being ranked first, and I am ashamed of not being tempted."
He encouraged himself and returned to his hometown to study hard. Six years later, he passed the joint examination and ranked first in the second grade of high school in the palace examination, becoming the highest-ranked Di Jinshi in the history of the country.
The Di tribe has become the number one legend in Erjia. Naturally, there are many people who are dissatisfied. However, years of hard study have cultivated Ye Kedun's true talent and hard work. He is not only proficient in doctrine, but also fluent in the five languages of Han, Mongolian and Di. Selected by the Imperial Academy
The review was excellent and he was awarded the title of editor. He was later sent to Liaodong to appease the descendants of the Li Dynasty and mediate the disputes between them and the Nanchen Kingdom. In the last years of Jiayou's life, he was promoted to minister and doctor of the Imperial Academy.
He studied Neo-Confucianism, gave lectures in a unique way, and gained a great reputation. Later, after the former Imperial College of the Imperial Academy became an official, Ye Kedun took on the post of Jijiu, and taught many disciples in more than ten years.
As for the title of "Strange Master", it mainly comes from the "uniqueness" of Ye Keton's lectures. When he lectured on "Shangshu", he said at the beginning: "I only understand half of this book." During the lecture, he often said, "I don't understand this place."
"Understand", "Please refer to the words of the sages in the commentaries to understand..."
Ye Kedon also taught the other classics with a consistent mentality.
He said: "Knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing, this is knowing. I don't know this, or someone who knows may condescend to teach it. If you learn in this way and know it, the Master said: 'One thing.'"
Ye Kedun was very easy-going in his studies, and he was so easy-going that he was unreliable. But because of his frankness, many students were impressed by him. Even the Supreme Emperor once said with a smile: "Ye Kedun is not like a Di tribe person at all as a scholar."
Later, Ye Kedun served as the imperial minister of the Imperial College. He had to read and lecture on history in morning classes every day. He had no leisure time and had strict requirements on the supervisors. The Imperial College, which was originally in decline, also prospered under his management.
Let me mention here that the Great Xia Dynasty continued the prosperity of the academies of the former Ming Dynasty without imposing too many restrictions. As a result, the trend of local lectures flourished. All academies only needed to report to the Confucian Proposal Department under the Ministry of Rites for approval, and
Just accept regular assessments from the imperial court to local academic administration. The style of academies is prevalent, and official schools can use more financial resources to take care of poor students.
Honorable men such as Jia Lan can actually enroll in the Imperial College, but unlike those from poor families, those who enroll in the Imperial College still have to pay a large amount of money every month to subsidize the expenses of the prison and accept its jurisdiction.
Children of bureaucrats generally cannot stand such strict management, and either choose to study in academies or stay at home to study. The same is true for Jia Lan. He has not attended government schools since he was a child, and he did not go to the Imperial Academy until he was a child.
The senior brother said to Jia Lan: "The Di tribe's eldest son is Ye Jijiu's concubine Ye Guangting. Despite his repeated concessions, in fact he was originally a very hot-tempered person, but after being severely punished by his father,
Only then did he calm down his temper." He said that he failed the last examination and enrolled in the Imperial College due to lack of money at home, and that's when he learned about Ye Guangting.
"Ye Guangting looks soft and weak, but at heart he is still a member of the Di tribe. He is extremely powerful and can even tame an out-of-control horse. As for the young masters of the Cao family, he will not take it seriously if there are a hundred more.
"After the senior brother finished speaking, he looked at Cao Runxiang constantly provoking Ye Guangting as if he was watching a good show.
Looking at Ye Guangting who was clenching his fist tightly, Jia Lan opened his spiritual sense and found that his aura gradually became chaotic and turbulent. This was a very typical aura of an angry person.
And as Diancui's senior brother said, unlike Cao Runjian who was corrupted by wine and sex, Ye Guangting was much more energetic.
Despite his frail and thin body, the energy in his body cannot be underestimated.
After standing for a moment and thinking about it, Jia Lan finally took a step forward and walked between Ye Guangting and Cao Runxiang, separating the two of them amidst the surprised eyes.
Feeling that he had the upper hand, Cao Runqian was a little angry when he was suddenly stopped. But when he saw that the person coming was Jia Lan, his eyes suddenly changed.
"Brother Cao, that's enough."
In more than a year, the childlike look on Jia Lan's face has faded a lot, and his eyes are shining with a sense of energy.
Cao Runyan's momentum suddenly stagnated.
"What? Jia Lan, do you want to meddle in other people's business?" Cao Runxiang took a deep breath and raised his voice, as if only sound could bring him a sense of security in front of Jia Lan. However, his slightly changed voice exposed it even more.
In his heart, the expressions of the helpers around him changed when they noticed this, and some of the timid ones even took a few steps back. After all, being able to become a minister is still somewhat clever. It is one thing to curry favor with the powerful, but to get the upper hand.
That's another story.
Jia Lan smiled and said: "Brother Cao, I don't think you are stupid enough to cause trouble in the Gongyuan before the Ministry of Rites exam, right?"
Cao Runxiang's face changed slightly, and he glanced at Ye Guangting with hesitation. He flinched in his heart, but he still refused to give in: "Are you going to stand up for this foreigner?"
Ye Guangting's eyes were filled with anger, but Jia Lan's appearance surprised him, and he just pursed his lips tightly.
"Foreign people?" Jia Lan sneered: "Confucius said: 'When China invades the Barbarians and Di, the Barbarians will conquer it; when the Barbarians invade China, they will conquer China.' Furthermore, Tai Shigong said: 'Yao and Shun worked together in Youling to transform Beidi.
Put Huandou in Songshan to convert the Southern Barbarians, move Sanmiao to Sanwei to convert the Western Rong, and kill Gun in Yushan to convert the Eastern Yi. Gonggong, Sanmiao, was after the Shennong family; Huandou, Gun, was after the Gaoyang family.
His distant ancestors are our common ancestors of Yan and Huang. Nowadays, people of the Di tribe have been bathed in my Chinese poetry and returned to Chi County. They wear Han clothes, speak Chinese, and respect the laws of the saints. Why does Brother Cao regard him as a foreigner?"
