I served as an admonisher in the Song Dynasty

Chapter 17 Lectured by Su Liang, Open Class at Yushitai

In the vertical arch hall.

Bao Zheng spent nearly half an hour talking and gesticulating about Su Liang's mind mapping technique.

Although it is not precise enough, it explains the principles and benefits of mind mapping.

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen was amazed.

Then I picked up a memorial and drew it in the form of a fishbone diagram. After finishing the drawing, I couldn't help but exclaimed three times: How wonderful!Wonderful!Wonderful!

Wang Gongchen and Qian Mingyi on the side also roughly understood.

The two often read and wrote documents, and naturally knew the huge benefits this method brought to officials.

In short: save time and effort, improve quality and efficiency.

"It turns out that Su Liang's short time in office is not because he is lazy, but because he is very efficient!" Zhao Zhen stroked his beard and was very happy.

A few days ago, a group of officials refuted Zhao Zhen's decision to let Su Liang serve as the banquet official.

But now, Su Liang has proved his excellence with his own actions and proved that Zhao Zhen was not wrong about the person.

This is equivalent to showing off one's face to the officials!
Zhao Zhen is naturally happy.

Bao Zheng cupped his hands and said, "Officials, I believe that this brain mapping technique should be practiced by hundreds of officials, and then promoted to various prefectures and counties."

Zhao Zhen nodded and looked at Wang Gongchen.

"Wang Zhongcheng, I have decided to order the Yushitai to hold lectures in the courtyard. I specially ordered Su Liang to be the lecturer. He will lecture on the art of mind mapping to the deacons and officials of each yamen in three days. It will last for three days and will be compiled into a book by the Hanlin Academy. how do you feel?"

Wang Gongchen forced a smile.

"Of course it's excellent. This imagination technique is truly magical and worth promoting! It's worth promoting!"

According to Su Liang's current qualifications and official position, he is completely unqualified to set up a case and lecture at Yushitai.

But in the entire Song Dynasty, Su Liang was probably the only one who was proficient in this technique.

If he doesn't tell it, who else can tell it?

Wang Gongchen couldn't find any reason to refute it.

"Then this matter will be left to the Yushitai. You ask Su Liang to be prepared!" Zhao Zhen thought for a while and then said: "I will also be there on the first day of the lecture. At that time, at least two people will go to each yamen in Beijing. , must not be absent!”

"I obey!" Wang Gongchen held his hands heavily.

Hearing this, Bao Zheng's face, which had been like an iceberg for many years, couldn't help but reveal a smile that could be seen if you looked closely.

When the official family comes, the nature is different.

If the officials don't come, most of the ministers and scholars will send officials to listen. After all, Su Liang has a low official position and is considered to be at the bottom of Bianjing City.

But when the official family comes, these self-esteemed princes and bachelors have no choice but to come.

……

Soon, the news spread that Su Liang, the censor of the Yushitai Procuratorate, would serve as a lecturer and explain the art of mind mapping to various yamen.

Many people said it was incredible.

However, Wang Gongchen, Qian Mingyi, Bao Zheng and others praised the technique of mind mapping so miraculously that they could not help but arouse the curiosity of many officials.

For a time, Su Liang became a celebrity in the court.

After Su Liang learned the news, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous, but he quickly calmed down.

Then, start making handouts.

This is a great opportunity to prove himself, and he will naturally not let it go.

Three days later, in the front yard of Yushitai.

A long table is placed at the front, with pens, ink, paper and inkstones all available.

There is a wooden board about one foot high behind the table, which Su Liang specially asked the carpenter to customize. Several large pieces of paper can be hung on the wooden board.

In front of the long table is the audience seat.

A large mahogany chair was placed in the middle, where Zhao Zhen sat.

There are nearly fifty chairs in the back for the chief officials of the yamen to sit. As for those who came late or have low official positions, they can only stand in the back.

After a while.

Officials from various yamen arrived one after another, and Su Liang also stood waiting beside the lecture.

After a while, Emperor Zhao Zhen came over with a group of ministers.There were more than ten people including Prime Minister Du Yan, Deputy Minister Chen Zhizhong, Privy Councilor Jia Changchao, Hanlin scholar Chengzhi Dingdu, Deputy Privy Councilor Han Qi, Yushi Zhongcheng Wang Gongchen and so on.

These people were also followed by officials from the Xueshiyuan, Sansi, Xuanhuiyuan, Dali Temple, Imperial College, Chongwenyuan and other yamen.

Su Liang looked up.

At a glance, Ding Du, a Hanlin scholar, had a dark face. Behind him, several middle-aged academics from Chongwen Academy (Zhaowen Hall, Shiguan, and Jixian Academy) also had dark faces.

Setting up cases and giving lectures is what they are good at.

But now the 26-year-old Su Liang stood on the main podium, and officials and family members came to listen in person, and even ordered them to come to listen and study.

Naturally, they were a little bitter about this kind of treatment.

Today, what Ruo Suliang said was completely childish and unfashionable.

This group of people definitely took the lead and scolded Su Liang until he could no longer stand in the court.

Soon.

There were more than 100 people standing and sitting in the hospital.

Zhao Zhen looked around and said to Su Liang, who was standing next to the lecture in front of him: "Su Liang, you can start!"

Su Liang took a deep breath and walked to the middle of the lecture.

Su Liang may not be the opponent of these people when it comes to talking about history and classics.

But when it comes to the art of mind mapping, Su Liang is confident that everyone will be convinced.

Su Liang bowed down first, and then said: "What is a mind map? A mind map is a process in which we visualize the abstract knowledge in our minds. First of all..."

Su Liang's preparations were particularly solid.

It's very smooth to speak.

And from time to time he makes witty remarks.

Because the content of what he said was fresh and useful to everyone present.

In no time, he turned everyone into his loyal listeners.

"Next, let me take the picture as an example to show you how to use the fishbone diagram!"

After that, Su Liang hung a fishbone diagram that he had already sketched on the wooden board behind him and began to analyze it in detail.

After all, Su Liang is a person who has been washed by the culture of his previous life.

Occasionally, when talking, some fashionable words will pop up inadvertently, such as: closed loop, muscle memory, thinking visualization, etc.

Fortunately, he can explain everything clearly and everyone can understand it.

Most of the people sitting here are well-educated people who have taken the imperial examination and become officials.

He is extremely intelligent.

After Su Liang explained the logic of the mind map clearly, they quickly understood the benefits of the mind map.

Several officials from the Hanlin Academy held writing brushes and quickly recorded Su Liang's every word.

In the blink of an eye, an hour passed.

Su Liang finally finished explaining all about the art of mind mapping.

Wang Gongchen planned for him to give two lectures a day and a total of six lectures in three days.

After he finished speaking, he bowed deeply downwards.

Zhao Zhen couldn't help but praise: "What a saying, 'Whoever controls the mind map controls time', well said!"

Immediately, thunderous applause erupted in the courtyard.

Of course, there are also some old scholars who still curl their lips. These people are too traditional and cannot accept new things.

in their eyes.

This set of mind-mapping techniques is nothing more than a grotesque technique and cannot be considered elegant.

However, the vast majority of officials have seen the benefits of this technique and know that if they practice it frequently, they will save a lot of time in future official homework and their performance will be significantly improved.

There were also some officials behind who didn't understand very well. They looked at Su Liang on the stage with envy in their eyes.

If a man has such a highlight moment in his life, it will not be considered a wasted life.
