Chapter 283 Yang's new school revealed at the beginning
The early morning sunlight shines through the moon-white screen window and onto the bedside.
In the bedroom of Zhaodefang, three maids, each holding a purple bamboo flute, sat at the foot of the couch and played softly.
Li Ning'er, who was wearing a white silk coat, sat aside and sang in a sweet voice: "The flowers in the spring forest are so beautiful, and the spring birds are so sad. The spring breeze is sentimental again, blowing my clothes open. I go to the balcony in the morning, and sleep in the orchid pond at night. Take a ride.
I gather hibiscus in the moon and get lotus seeds every night.”
The sound is soft and greasy, which is heart-stirring.
Yang Lin stretched out, lying on his side on the head of the bed, pressing his knees to beat the beat.
With his chest half open and a fleece blanket covering him, he practiced some Taoist health-preserving techniques by burning the earth dragon, and he was not afraid of the cold.
Li Ning'er's wonderful eyes seem to be able to speak, they are as full as water and full of emotion.
Suddenly the door was pushed open, and Li Yunniang came in and said with a smile: "Da Lang, Mr. Yin Muhong is here. He said he has something important to see Da Lang."
Yang Lin had woken up a lot. He lifted the blanket and said, "Ask someone to help me wash up."
A quarter of an hour later, Yang Lin came to the living room after finishing cleaning. While drinking porridge, he asked: "It's rare that Your Majesty doesn't come to court early today. Why are you here so early in the morning?"
Yin Muhong secretly thought to himself that His Majesty did not come to the Imperial College early every now and then. What's so rare about it? He smiled and said, "Young Master, today dozens of students from the Imperial College have jointly requested the Young Master to give lectures at the Imperial College."
Yang Lin almost spit out the porridge and coughed: "What? You want me to give a lecture?"
"Yes, these are Shaozai's admirers. They admire Shaozai's knowledge and character, and look forward to them. It's hard to refuse."
Yang Lin lowered his head and thought about it. He spent a lot of money and bought countless literati to write poems and sing praises for himself. Unexpectedly, it really worked.
This group of sailors are much more conscientious than those of later generations. Having more sailors brings true fans, which seems to be the eternal path.
"In this case, I can't live up to everyone's eagerness. Anyway, I have nothing to do today, so I will go and learn."
Taixue has appeared since the Han Dynasty and has been the highest institution of learning in all dynasties.
In the early Song Dynasty, there was only the Imperial College, with a very small number of students, and only the children of officials of seventh rank or above were admitted.
In the fourth year of the Qingli reign of Emperor Renzong of the Song Dynasty, Fan Zhongyan implemented the Qingli New Deal and began to establish a university at Xiqingyuan in Kaifeng, Tokyo, enrolling 200 internal students, and formulated the "Tai Xue Order" using Hu Yuan's Lake Study Method.
During the reign of Emperor Shenzong Zhao Xu of the Song Dynasty, the Imperial College was expanded, the number of students increased to 2,400, eighty studios were established, the regulations of the Imperial College were revised, and the Three Houses Law was implemented.
When Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty Zhao Ji established Piyong as a foreign school, Taixue enrolled a total of 3,800 students. At the same time, Prime Minister Cai Jing abolished the imperial examination and all talents were selected by the school. Taixue has now officially reached its peak period.
It is no exaggeration to say that in the future, the officials in the temples will be this group of people. Cai Jing's reforms also caused an influx of a large number of common people into the Imperial Academy. These people do not have regular teachers in their families, most of them are from private schools, and most of them are from private schools.
He is a fan of Yang Lin.
In front of the Taixue Gate, students from the two groups looked at each other with cold eyebrows and refused to give in to each other.
Some of them are students of the old school. They have personally experienced Yang Lin's brutal period. The new number one scholar's horse attack on Chen Chaolao will be an eternal pain for the students of the old school.
Others are newly promoted imperial students. Outside Bianliang, they listen to Yang Lin's hymns every day.
What's more, many of their mentors are paid to do things.
After Yin Muhong received the funding, he thought about it and realized that only private school teachers were short of money and poor, and it was difficult to praise others for their ability to write poems. Therefore, he vigorously recruited these people and used the liquidity of the Long Live Camp to develop many teachers as propaganda tools.
The students taught by these people are naturally close to Yang Shaozai.
A newly admitted scholar actually asked Yang Lin to come to Taixue to give lectures. To the old students, this was a great shame and humiliation.
A group of people blocked the door to protest, wanting to give Yang Lin a slap in the face and block him from the door.
The other faction responded tit-for-tat and immediately organized to protect Shaozai.
While the two sides were in a stalemate, there was a sound of horse hooves in the distance, and soon hundreds of people dressed in red robes came on horseback.
When everyone arrived in front of the Taixue Gate, they dismounted one after another, followed Yang Lin behind them and came out to the front of the Taixue Gate.
Almost everyone in the Long Live Battalion has a life in their hands. They used to be a group of desperadoes, but after training, they became even more powerful.
Put it in front of a group of gangsters, and it will make them tremble, let alone a group of scholars.
As for Yang Lin, Eguan Bodai, dressed as a scholar, walked over.
As soon as this group of people appeared, the momentum of the old ladies was lost. Although they still hated Yang Lin, no one dared to take the lead.
The imperial students on the other side, with red faces and excited expressions, surrounded Yang Lin and followed closely.
Yang Lin entered Taixue with a smile and walked up the steps to the mountain gate. Halfway up the mountain was a large square with a statue of Confucius standing in the center.
Next to the white jade statue, a stage had been set up, and everyone gathered around Yang Lin to take the stage.
"You are all students of the Imperial Academy. In the future, you will go to the temple to criticize Fang Qiu and give guidance to the country. I am just taking the first step. Today we will not talk about the way to govern the country for the time being. Let's talk about being a human being first."
It was very quiet down there, even those who didn't like him wanted to hear what the champion had to say.
Yang Lin took a look at the scholars below. These people represented the future of the Song Dynasty and were the pillars of the future.
If we can start with them and get rid of the bad ideas of some scholar-bureaucrats, and when they are injected into the ranks of civil servants as fresh blood, we may be able to change the lifeless and decadent bureaucratic status quo of the Song Dynasty.
Thinking of this, Yang Lin searched his intestines and stomach and said something from the bottom of his heart:
"My rough guess is that human beings are the spirit of all things, and when they first become generals, they are still confused. Therefore, there is no distinction between good and evil, and survival is the first priority. This is the body of the heart, and it is also the foundation of human beings.
What is the heart? According to Mencius, the four main points are the heart of right and wrong, the heart of shame and disgust, the heart of compassion, and the heart of resignation, all of which are conscience.
The sage said that knowledge can be obtained by studying things, which means that he hopes that people in future generations will have their own conscience in everything, and no one will be mixed with desires. Knowing but not doing it is ignorance. Knowing and acting is not knowing. Knowing is the beginning of action, and action is knowing.
There is no order of precedence in knowing and doing, but I personally value doing.
The long-cherished wish of ancient scholars to govern the country and bring peace to the world is also a supreme honor. Doing good to all living beings can be a great achievement.
But a small ability is a small good, and a great ability is a great good and conscience. You don’t have to force yourself to be a great good.”
The people below were treated to this novel and philosophical sermon, and they seemed to understand it, but they seemed to have some enlightenment.
Yang Lin simply sat on the floor on the stage covered with a futon, pointed down and said: "Today we are discussing life and knowledge. Regardless of our official position here, we are equals. Feel free to come up to the stage to talk or ask questions."
