Chapter 438: Yuntai Disciple Three
The appeal of the two Su brothers, especially Su Dongpo, is still very strong!
When Su Dongpo was looking at the sea in Danzhou, many Confucian scholars from the Central Plains followed, not to mention that now he has returned to a fairyland-like place like Yuntai Mountain? Moreover, although Haizhou administratively belongs to the Huainan East Road, it is actually north of the Huai River, which belongs to the eastern edge of the Central Plains, and the waterway transportation is very convenient. There are canals, sea transportation, and official roads that extend in all directions.
Therefore, there is no need for Wu Haogu to advertise in the "Oiran" album and "Wenqu Xing" magazine, and many talented and beautiful people come here.
How can there be a beautiful woman?
Of course there is, how can such a good thing be monopolized by Pretty Gold Lady alone? These days, there are many female artists from Yangzhou, Hangzhou, Pingjiang, Xuzhou, Yingtianfu, and even Kaifeng Mansion to Haizhou.
They didn't come here for Su Dongpo alone, Su Dongpo is so old, and he doesn't pay attention to exercise on weekdays, how can he deal with so many female artists who are both virtuous and artistic?
But didn't Song Huizong say that "degrading officials stop at Haizhou"? Considering the trend of party fighting in the Song Dynasty in the past few decades, Haizhou will not be allowed to "enter Shiman Street and walk, there are as many talented people as dogs" here in Haizhou in the future? I'm afraid that in addition to Kaifeng Mansion, there are many Haizhou officials in the whole world.
Even if it is a "degraded official", it is also a great official of the Great Song Dynasty! Maybe it will be recovered in the future, even if it can't be recovered, the officials of the Great Song Dynasty are not all "Qingtian", and the officials who are demoted do not raid their homes...... There is an official with 180,000 spare money, and it is not a big corruption in the Song Dynasty.
Therefore, under the dual promotion of the degrading effect and the education industry of Yuntai Academy, the future of Haizhou is quite bright!
And Su Dongpo and his disciples and nephews, although none of them publicly said that they would take the Yuntai Academy. But in their hearts, they have actually regarded the school palace as their own territory.
In today's world, it is too dangerous to enter the court as an official, and no one seems to let them venture into the court...... Even Su Zhe didn't recover, let alone others.
And if you want to say goodbye to your hometown and return to your hometown, you are shy - although Su Dongpo is a "big star" who can make money, his officialdom career is too turbulent, he has little time to make money, and he has no brand awareness. All kinds of products with the name of "Dongpo" are cheap profiteers, and he really didn't get anything himself.
And after being demoted, it was difficult for his calligraphy works to sell for a good price. People who can pay high prices will not go to Danzhou to buy words, and the calligraphy and painting dealers who will go to Danzhou will lower the price.
In addition, there are many people who need Su Dongpo's help. Several sons and a whole family followed him to Lingnan unlucky, and a few disciples were also affected and could not be appointed as officials, so he always had to give money to him.
Therefore, the two Su brothers who have been up and down in officialdom all their lives do not have much savings, and the four "gentlemen" who followed Su Dongpo are even poorer, only Huang Tingjian is richer, but it is not much better. Otherwise, he would not have refused to serve as a member of the Ministry of Water (the chief officer of the Ministry of Water under the Ministry of Industry) and asked to be a state and county official. In history, he was the governor of Taiping Prefecture for a period of time, but unfortunately he was at odds with Li Qingzhao's "old man" Zhao Tingzhi, and after Zhao Tingzhi took power, he was accused of "gloating and slandering the country" and sent to Yizhou to organize and manage it......
If Sumen Shuxue can win the territory of Yuntai Academy, then the rest of the big guy's life will be guaranteed.
After all, the Yuntai Academy Palace seems to belong directly to today's official family! The books on tricks such as "Mengxi Writings", "Building the French Style", and "Tujing Materia Medica" that the official family participated in the compilation and editing when they were in the palace will also be studied and taught by the Yuntai Academy in the future - aren't these the so-called "natural trails"?
Therefore, the Yuntai School Palace will definitely be protected by the official family in the future, as long as the people of Sumen and the Yuntai School Palace are together, they will be able to stay out of the party struggle.
The people of Sumen, who have long regarded the Yuntai School Palace as the foundation of their lives, naturally have to work hard to maintain the popularity of the School Palace that has not yet opened.
To put it bluntly, the value of the Sumen School Valve to the Yuntai Academy Palace is that it can gather high popularity in a short period of time. It's easy to pull people's heads!
Therefore, the scholars and gentlemen of Sumen who are tacitly aware of each other take turns to give lectures in Yuntaizhuang these days to maintain their popularity. However, what they are talking about is not the Confucian way, but the way of calligraphy, painting, poetry, and lyrics, all of which are pretended to be forced by literati, and they are 100% Sumen masters.
Isn't that what Su Dongpo passed down to future generations? A piece of character sold for billions, a bowl of Dongpo meat was popular all over the country, and a bunch of poems were sung for thousands of years.
And there is no risk for these Sumen peerless professors, before Su Dongpo officially won the Yuntai Academy, he was still demoted, so he had to be careful.
Therefore, Sumen does not preach the Great Dao now, only the wind and snow, and the literati are elegantβoh, Dongpo meat and Dongpo elbow are not taught now, which is a "secret that cannot be taught", and it must be learned by a disciple who enters the room.
In addition to lectures, Yuntaizhuang also provides cheap room and board. The manor was nominally a manor, but in fact it was built to house the standards of the academy. Therefore, there are many classes, a large number of student dormitories, and of course, small separate courtyards for Sumen scholars to live in.
If the student dormitories are full, hundreds of PTZ disciples can still accommodate them.
β¦β¦
Hearing Wu Haogu say that there are rooms in Yuntai Village to settle in, and there is a generation of grandmasters like Huang Tingjian (Huang Tingjian is the master of the Jiangxi Poetry School or a master of calligraphy) to teach "calligraphy" and "cursive calligraphy".
A generation of grandmaster Huang Tingjian lectures! What a rare opportunity? And...... You can also settle directly in the Yuntai Village where Su Dongpo lives!
Even if you don't make it to Suman this time, you can brag about it in the future!
Back then, I studied in Mr. Dongpo's Yuntai Village......
"I also admire Huang Fuweng's calligraphy a lot," Lu Hao asked the smiling Chongwu Haogu and arched his hand, "Let's bother Brother Chongdao to lead the way." β
"Well said, well said." Wu Haogu bowed his hand to the Confucian scholars downstairs at the city gate, "If you want to go to Yuntai Village to study, you should all go with you." β
Can you all go?
"This brother," someone immediately asked, "can I live in Yuntai Village in the future and study from Mr. Dongpo?" β
"How long is it going to be?" Wu Haogu smiled, "If you want to listen to a few days of classes in Yuntai Village, you can come here." If you want to worship the beginner, I'm afraid that you will have to take an exam. β
Of course, there is an exam to enter the Yuntai Academy! Otherwise, how to eliminate the good ones and leave the poor ones?
Yuntai Academy doesn't want the kind of heroes who can roll their names outside the Donghua Gate, and it is impossible for those people to cross the ocean to spread the Confucian Avenue. If you want to preach abroad, you have to have a lot of real talent and learning, and it's best that you can't even pass the exam...... Well, it would be great if there was someone like Sect Leader Hong.
"Then bother this brother to lead the way."
"Please lead the way, brother."
"There's Brother Lao."
In the end, it is a Confucian student, although most of them disdain Wu Haogu, a "son of a wealthy businessman", but they are still polite and polite on their faces, and they have asked Wu Haogu to lead the way.
Wu Haogu naturally wouldn't shirk it, and after whispering to his female bodyguard to be careful about precautions, he went down the city gate tower with a smile, and went to Yuntai Village with Lu Haowen.
"Brother Chongdao," Lu Hao asked with a smile as he walked, "You just said that you want to take an exam when you enter Mr. Dongpo's door?" Who is this to listen to? β
"I heard from Mr. Dongpo's undergraduates." Wu Haogu replied.
Of course, he wouldn't tell Lu Hao to ask the erudite Dongpo Sect Scholar named Wu Haogu.
"What's the test?" Lu asked a good question, and sure enough, he asked.
"This ......," Wu Haogu thought for a while, "I have to wait for Mr. Dongpo to raise the Yuntai Academy Palace." β
"Yuntai Academy?" Lu Hao was stunned, "Is it under the jurisdiction of the Guozijian?" β
The word Xuegong existed in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and the word "Biyong" has the same meaning, both of which are institutions of higher learning established by the king. The more famous one is the Jixia School Palace established by the Qi Kingdom of the Tian clan during the Warring States Period.
"It's not under the supervision of the Prince," replied Wu Haogu, "but it's half-official, half-private learning." β
"Half-official and half-private" is actually the positioning of Wuhaogu to Yuntai Academy. It is certain that the Yuntai Academy will hang the signboard of official learning, otherwise how could a big official like Su Dongpo be promoted by the Academy?
But if the Yuntai School Palace is included in the Guozijian system, then there is no need for this school palace to continue.
Because the Guozijian of the Song Dynasty was not an institution for research or preaching, or even a university for cultivating talents for the construction of feudalism. It's a place for exam-oriented education - this is a big hole, which is equivalent to turning universities like Tsinghua University and Peking University into a cram school for the college entrance examination...... And the genius students admitted with high scores in the college entrance examination did not enter institutions of higher learning for further study, but were sent to be county lieutenants to catch thieves. Even if you are admitted to the Public Security University in the future, you will have to study for a few years before catching thieves, right? How can there be such a imperial examination system, no matter how old the jinshi is, whether his legs and feet are neat, even if he is eighty years old, he is sent to be a county lieutenant.
Therefore, the imperial examination of the Great Song Dynasty and the college entrance examination of later generations are completely different, and the whole thing has been screwed up.
And the Yuntai School Palace, which was pushed by Wu Hao Guli, is to correct the screwed Great Song Dynasty education system. Yuntai Academy should be a university that cultivates talents, not a cram school for imperial examinations.
When Wu Haogu and others arrived at Yuntaizhuang, Su Dongpo and his party who went to "watch the sea of clouds" had already returned to Yuntaizhuang. It turned out that Su Dongpo went up the mountain in the early hours of this morning, and after admiring the beginning of the sea of clouds, he went to Faqi Temple to rest for a few hours before going down the mountain and returning to Yuntaizhuang.
After learning that Su Dongpo had arrived, Wu Haogu handed over Fan Zhiwen to the steward of Yuntaizhuang and placed him in the guest room, and he accompanied Lu Haowen to visit Su Dongpo.
