Three Kingdoms: From Yinlin to Great Wei Xiongzhu

Chapter 237 This is too learned, it's actually a den of tigers and wolves

Dahan has been around for hundreds of years, since the golden signboard of Taixue has been erected.

This legendary Taixue has a particularly important status in the hearts of scholars and common people.

In the eyes of great Confucians, studying in private school is equivalent to sitting on the garbage dump.

But Taixue is completely different, the buildings and palaces are all made of gold, and even the grass must have three points of extravagance.

Of course, in fact... not so exaggerated.

Taixue is not so arrogant.

Today, however, is very different.

In the past, the presidents of Taixue, such as Qiao Xuan and Cai Yong, wrote letters to the emperor and the court to ask for money, food, treatment, subsidies, and materials, and they always offended a large number of people.

But... Now it is Cai Zhaoji who asks for the money, and Lu Yu from the Si Nong Mansion who gives the money.

With such a younger brother who is in charge of Dahan's finances, the various expenses of Taixue are naturally close to the water.

even…

Cai Zhaoji didn't need to take the initiative to mention it, the master bookkeeper in the Si Nong Mansion sent money and food on his own initiative, and Ren Taixue went to buy it at will.

Now, the sacrifice is over.

All the students came to the classroom...

Each classroom is spacious, bright and well-decorated, and each seat has a high-quality and comfortable straw mat.

There are several cases on the mat, and there are wicker boxes on top of the cases.

Open the box, brushes, grinding blocks, inkstones, seal materials, carving knives, bamboo slips, cloth handkerchiefs, sweet-scented osmanthus foam, and chicken tongue incense are all available.

These are all provided by the Dahan State Treasury to Tai students, but it took a lot of money and effort.

...

The first class of Taixue is a big class!
Sixty Tai students sat in their seats one by one.

And their chief Cai Zhaoji walked in step by step.

Lu Yu and the other teachers sat at the end. This class was not only taught by Cai Zhaoji for the Tai students, but also for every teacher, even her younger brother Lu Yu.

Compared with Lu Yu, there is no doubt...Cai Zhaoji has more sense of responsibility for Taixue.

She inherited her father's unique feelings for Taixue and teaching and educating people.

Cai Zhaoji even believes that... the rain and dew in the clouds and the nutrients in the soil all over the world are used to nourish the "plants" that are lucky to grow here.

As a hardworking gardener, how could she not care about it.

"In the first class, I don't ask you anything else, but there is one thing that you must understand. Why do people live?"

This question throws…

Even Lu Yu knocked on his forehead subconsciously, but he didn't know how to answer.

However, the speeches of Tai students were quite enthusiastic.

Why do people live?

Cao Ang and Huang Xu said that we should honor our parents;

Xiahouheng and Xiahouba said that we should make contributions and make achievements, and glorify the lintel;

Sima Yi replied that being an official is for the people;
Yang Xiu wanted to answer that to prove himself in the family, to prove that he was worthy of the title of the Yang Family's Wizard of the World, after all, it was because of his own rudeness during the sacrifice just now, so he didn't have the nerve to speak.

And Lu Yu seemed to have an answer in his heart...

Miss Zhao Ji asked this question well.

He is different from these students.

If we say...before, in the troubled times...he was still in danger, and it was difficult for him to protect himself!

Everything he does is to survive in this troubled world, and then... to live better.

Then.

Now, I really have a better life in front of me.

How could Lu Yu continue to lie flat?

He now has some transcendent ideas. What he wants to do is to change this empire, fundamentally, from the crux, and from the essence.

The root cause of cholera in the great Han Dynasty lies in the complete disorder, anomie, and imbalance of the bottom management.

The reason why the Three Kingdoms returned to Jin was essentially that the nobles and nobles were in power.

If we follow the historical trajectory, starting from Cao Pi and Cao Rui, the "legalist poor family line" that Cao Cao has always adhered to and pursued has been completely abandoned.

The implementation of the nine-rank Zhongzheng system has further expanded the power of the gentry...

To change the world, what Lu Yu has to do is these two things.

One lies in the norms of low-level governance, and the other lies in restricting the elites and noble families and using the children of poor families.

Of course, it is too far to say these things now, after all, the world is not yet stable, and now...Lao Cao still cannot do without the help of the gentry, and all Lu Yu can do is to observe the changes of the times.

Changing this era is easy to say... think about it carefully, how difficult is it?

Because of a question from Sister Zhaoji, Lu Yu became emotional.

at this time.

"Is that your answer?"

Cai Zhaoji's words came out again. "Life is actually an accident. We always want to be the expectation of our parents, the glory of our family, and the future of the court, but the person who is most likely to be ignored is ourselves."

Huo…

As soon as these words came out, Lu Yu's eyes narrowed sharply.

Be good, Sister Zhaoji is indeed Sister Zhaoji, what she meant by these words is to awaken the self-awareness of the students!

It is true that the awakening of self-awareness is nothing in later generations, but it happened to the great man more than 800 years ago.

Everyone is born with the five mountains of heaven and earth, gods, emperor, relatives, and teachers on their heads. Students often want to become what others need.

Just... the meaning of "self" has been ignored and downplayed.

Cai Zhaoji's statement is extremely advanced, and it is unheard of...

And being able to say this has nothing to do with her chatting and communicating with Brother Yu all these years.

Even, Brother Yu's rise, Brother Yu's success... Cai Zhaoji also thought about many reasons.

The most important point is self... Yudi is a person with strong self-awareness, he will live for himself.

Therefore…

Sometimes he is open-minded, sometimes absurd, sometimes generous, and sometimes cynical...

It seems that adjectives that are completely opposite to those who are "bound" by nature in this era can be used on him.

He never deliberately pleases anyone because of "heaven and earth", "gods", "lord", "pro" and "father". What he learns, thinks, and thinks are all for "self" accomplish…

Or to put it another way, even she, the elder sister, is also a part of Brother Yu's "self".

Thinking of this, Cai Zhaoji talked to these students with eloquence.

"Life is our own first, and then we have various roles. When we come to this world, we must not only assume obligations and pay responsibilities, but also understand its value."

"Zi said 'Still established at thirty'. In the first 30 years of life, you must experience various tastes extensively. Don't be afraid of failure, because a meaningful life is always full of tests. He has been tested a lot! And the more he is tested, the better he becomes, the more outstanding he becomes."

This is out of the way...

All the Tai students looked at Lu Yu in the back row.

Uh…

Lu Yu thought about it, his sister was really kind to him, and she brushed his presence everywhere.

A pair of eyes came, and immediately... Lu Yu felt a little embarrassed.

Hey, I'm still not thick-skinned enough!
Of course, for Tai students.

Self, value, Mr. Lu.

These three words were uttered by Cai Zhaoji, and the mood of a senior student was like the dust accumulated in his heart was wiped away, and he could see the outside world clearly.

Self-awareness...Is it because of self-awareness that Chief Lu is outstanding?
For a moment, all the Tai students were filled with infinite curiosity.

"President Lu, this is the first class? Don't you say a few words?"

really…

Cai Zhaoji smiled and asked Lu Yu to say a few words.

Uh…

Lu Yu smiled helplessly, this is the "pro" sister, what's the matter...it can always involve him.

Lu Yu stood up and let himself go.

"Chairman, most of you have heard of it, right? I have lived in the Cai Mansion since I was a child, and the person who taught me since I was a child is the Chief Cai in front of you."

"I, Lu Yu, have no father and no mother, no family to rely on, and no blood relationship to help me...I claim to be the dullest among the disciples taught by President Cai!"

"But... It only took three years for me to go from being a logistics pawn in the military camp to becoming the chief minister of the big man, the commander of the Longxiao battalion, and the chief of the Imperial Academy!"

Speaking of this, some Tai students who reacted quickly nodded in admiration.

And some Tai students who realized it later, suddenly realized...

Deng Shi felt that their chief executive was really awesome.

But Lu Yu paused, and continued: "Actually, I don't have that high demand on you. You are much luckier to be here than I was when I was a child. You stand at the top of the academic world and occupy more resources. More people are seeking blessings, if even I can't surpass them, then your life is in vain."

"Of course...I know that many of you came to Taixue through the back door through your relationship, but you have to remember that there are only so many places in Taixue every year, because if you snatch a spot, one student will lose If you have the opportunity to study and study in the Taixue, if you don’t get any grades, then the first ones to be sorry are those students who were squeezed out by you!”

"Now you all hold your conscience, feel it, will it hurt? If it hurts, it proves that you still have a conscience, you should study hard in Taixue, and you are worthy of the quota that your parents asked for through the back door! Alright... that's all for now, Chief Ben is leaving first."

Speaking of this, Lu Yu waved his hands, lifted his robe quite seriously and walked away.

Don't look at his serious personality, but Lu Yu's heart throbbed endlessly.

awesome…

It's really cool to be the principal, training students is like training grandchildren, and... most of these students came in through the back door and paid a high price, but they dare not say a single word!
Thinking back to the days of "nine-year compulsory education" and "five-year college entrance examination and three-year simulation" in the past ten years, today... Lu Yu feels that he is proud.

"Tap..."

When he was about to walk out of the classroom door, Lu Yu paused. He suddenly remembered something, and added: "By the way, Yang Dezu, after class, I will go to the head teacher!"

ah... ah...

As soon as this statement comes out…

Originally, Yang Xiu, who was ashamed to let his father Yang Biao enter Taixue through the back door, was suddenly stunned.

This... Is this going to settle accounts after the fall?
Not only Yang Xiu was dumbfounded, but Lu Yu's words before leaving the house, all the Tai students, even Cai Zhaoji were dumbfounded...

Brother Yu specifically called Yang Xiu?Is this for admonishment?
Of course…

Brother Yu is the chief executive officer of Taixue, Yang Xiufang's behavior at the altar, a few words of admonition are nothing, naturally Cai Zhaoji will not go out to ask.

But... Brother Yu's words just now are so straightforward, it doesn't give these "back door" students face at all!

Cai Zhaoji glanced at the students in front of her, it seems... there are not many who really didn't go through the back door, right?

Wait until Lu Yu walks out of the classroom...

Cai Zhaoji's class is still going on.

"I haven't finished introducing Chief Lu to you. Most of you should have heard of him. Not only is he extremely resourceful, he was once Cao Sikong's shogunate hero. He is very good at making plans and is proficient in all kinds of crafts. A forged weapon can break iron like mud, cut stones and break gold!"

"He is also the brother of Zhang Zhongjing, the world's medical sage in the medical office. He has excellent medical skills. In addition, because he is good at Huang Lao's skills, he is also very proficient in the knowledge of the Yin Yang school. His skills are unparalleled in the world.”

"Many subjects in Baigong are taught by you, President Lu. When the time comes, you can choose to study carefully."

Speaking of this, Cai Zhaoji's tone became much more serious.

"The reason why I tell you so many things about President Lu is that, as he said, he is not a son of a wealthy family, nor does he have the help of blood, but he has been able to get to where he is today step by step! Your family background Are far better than him? In the future, we must strive to be better than him."

"I don't want to see you spend your good time on meaningless fun, and regret it when you are old! It is the right way to learn more knowledge and spend less of your precious life for fun. If so, you are still ignorant and making mistakes , against morality, then our Taixue will be a stepping stone for you in vain, and the teachings of Taixue will have no real meaning!"

"Do you all remember?"

As soon as this remark came out... all the students were silent.

In the past, no one has taught them so intuitively. Cai Zhaoji's words seem to have lifted the shackles. Taking Chief Lu as an example, they have shown their success in front of everyone one by one, and even more so. Past "failures" are exposed like scars.

Finally, Sima Yi took the lead in clapping his hands first, and all the Tai students reported to Cai Zhaoji, and what they reported to Lu Yu was long-lasting and tearful applause.

It seems... At this moment, their hearts were completely withdrawn, and they were completely placed on Taixue's side.

...

...

On the outskirts of Xudu City, on the banks of the Ying River, in the Lingyan Pavilion of Taixue.

This is Lu Yu's special name for the pavilion where he works, and the plaque of "Lingyan Pavilion" was put up by Lao Cao himself.

Now he yawned...

Walking from the other side of the classroom, his mood could not be calm for a long time.

Being in Taixue, seeing Taixue students...

Lu Yu thought about it all at once, the so-called...a strong country through education.

Imagine that if the education level of the Eastern Han Empire was high enough, among the students cultivated in the past hundred years, someone could formulate a set of effective rules and regulations to restrain the eunuchs!

The literati can govern calmly, and the emperor can strengthen the imperial power and command the world.

With a loyal minister like Xun Yu in charge of the affairs of the inner court, and a general like Cao Cao guarding the border, then... the big man will definitely not be reduced to what he is today.

It's a pity... what kind of things are taught by Taixue?A Yuan Shao who ignored the emperor, a Yuan Shu who pretended to be the emperor... I have to say that this is the failure of Taixue education.

Thinking of this, Lu Yu's eyeballs rolled again and again.

After all, the great man is going to end, but...even if it is the great Wei in the future, how will he govern the country?How to cultivate talents?How to pass it down from generation to generation?
These are all questions worth pondering.

shake your head...

Lu Yu regained his composure, he felt a little detached in this isolated Taixue surrounded by water.

Urgent...

It is still necessary to take one step at a time, first of all, Yuzhou must be settled, and the false emperor Yuan Shu must be pacified.

but…

Lu Yu frowned slightly. In fact... just now when he left the classroom, he thought of something very important, so he specially called Yang Xiu to come to Lingyan Pavilion after class.

In the current situation, Cao Sikong, one of the three princes, undoubtedly has the greatest power in the court.

But now, besides the Son of Heaven, there is another person above his status——Taiwei Yang Biao!
Lao Cao had thought of moving Yang Biao early in the morning, after all, there should be only one voice in the court.

If there is only one Sangong left, wouldn't the power of the entire court be concentrated in Lao Cao's hands?
only…

Taiwei Yang Biao is cautious and popular, and it is too difficult to catch him.

Exactly... Yuan Shu's proclaiming emperor gave Lao Cao a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

And this is related to Yang Xiu.

Yang Xiu, why is he so proud of his talent?He has confidence... He is the product of the marriage between the Hongnong Yang family and the Runan Yuan family, two of the top gentry families of this era.

Yang Xiu's father was Yang Biao, the patriarch of the Hongnong Yang family, and Yang Xiu's mother, Lu Yu remembered clearly, was Yuan Shu's own sister, the eldest daughter of the Yuan family in Runan.

With such a relationship here, how could Lao Cao not take action against Hongnong Yang's!
Of course... Lao Cao's original intention may be to remove the official title of Taiwei, leaving only one voice in the court.

But in fact, with Lao Cao's ruthless means, he couldn't guarantee...to kill many members of the Hongnong Yang family, and this...was equivalent to him directly giving up the support of the Hongnong Yang family.

You know, Hongnong Yang's and Runan Yuan's claim to be the most powerful aristocratic families in this era are not groundless.

They have been deeply cultivated in the Han Dynasty for several generations and have a strong intelligence and relationship network.

Students and old officials are all over the world...

This relationship network...it doesn't seem to be a big deal now, but if it can be handled well...it will be crucial to the decisive battle between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao in the future.

The dispute among the Three Kingdoms is, in the final analysis, a dispute over talents, because it is not worthwhile for one Hongnong Yang to offend a whole group of people!

It seems that Hongnong Yang's family... Lu Yu has to give it a hand.

Of course, the best way to pull Hongnong Yang's family is to find a way to persuade Yang Biao to give up the title of Taiwei, so that everyone will be happy...but...how to do it?

Lu Yu couldn't help knocking on his forehead...

Just thinking of this, a piece of piano music came from Lu Yu's ear.

It is the song "You Chun" played by Zhao Ji's sister Jiao Weiqin...

In Lu Yu's memory, there used to be... Cai Yong always liked to play a section at the beginning and end of class. It seems... Cai Yong's habit was perfectly inherited by Sister Zhaoji.

Is this the bell for the end of get out of class?
The sound of the piano lingered... Just as Lu Yu was listening.

"Student Yang Xiu pays homage to President Lu..." A crisp voice came from outside the door...

Is it Yang Xiu?
Lu Yu turned his head and waved to Yang Xiu. "Dezu, come in quickly, don't be restrained."

Yang Xiu lowered his head and walked in quickly, very respectful.

It seems that he is still guilty of his rude behavior during the previous sacrifice.

"Sit..." Lu Yu stretched out his hand to signal...

"Students dare not." Yang Xiu stood upright.

Lu Yu simply didn't hide it...

He got up slowly and asked Yang Xiu with a smile. "Dezu, you said... if I tie you up, whip you with a whip, beat you with a military stick, and finally put you in a water prison, as a threat..."

"Will your father resign the title of Taiwei?"

what…

This…

Yang Xiu's eyes widened in vain. Looking at Lu Yu's serious look, he suddenly had an illusion in his heart.

No... not an illusion, but a feeling...

It's a real feeling.

——"Too bad, this Taixue is actually a den of tigers and wolves!"

...

...

　I'm very busy today... I wanted to ask for leave.

　　After thinking about it, let's go, don't panic...there will be more later.
