Chapter 632

"That sounds nice. Don't you want to take this opportunity to seek military merit for your nephew?"

Yuan Li laughed mockingly: "Wake up! To the Academy of Sciences, we are always outsiders!"

As soon as these words came out, even Sheng Gong couldn't help but change slightly.

"Silence!"

Sheng Gong let out a low cry, and at the same time raised his head to look at Wu Cheng who was standing in front with his hands down.

The loss of a son in old age made Wu Cheng, who was already gloomy, even more irritable.

Even if Zhao Kun came here in person today, there was no smile on his face.

If Yuan Li's words were heard by Wu Cheng, his end would be extremely miserable.

For Yuan Li's big mouth, Sheng Gong had nothing to do.

He knew what kind of person Yuan Li was.

Having been in the same class for a year, Mr. Sheng thought that Yuan Li's displeasure with him would be less severe.

Unexpectedly, it is still the same as before.

Could it be because of the bad impression I left when I first met him?

Sheng Gong shook his head and smiled wryly.

Think of him as Duke Sheng, who was famous in Daqin when he was young, and was heavily relied on by the First Emperor.

Wherever he went, he was awe-inspiring.

Only Yuan Li didn't care about him, and went the other way, making fun of him from time to time.

Sheng Gong was lonely and lonely since he was a child, but he only ate Yuan Li.

Therefore, deep down in his heart, he really regards Yuanli as a good friend.

Because of this, Sheng Gong especially wanted to protect Yuanli.

Wu Cheng stood at the front of the line.

In fact, Yuan Li's voice was so loud, how could he not hear it?
It's just that Wu Cheng didn't want to explain anything.

In the eyes of the students, Wu Cheng has a bad temper and is very unhuman.

Moreover, there are some bad rumors about Wu Cheng circulating in the Academy of Sciences.

But in Wu Cheng's eyes, his strictness is actually just his habit.

For these students, he really has no bad intentions.

Wu Cheng did have some selfish intentions, but he couldn't use them against these students.

He just had an ideological dispute with Gong Shuqiu, Li Mu and others, which was actually nothing at all.

On the contrary, since Wu Luo's death, Wu Cheng also gave up the idea of ​​competing with the rest of the Academy of Sciences.

At this time, all his body and mind were devoted to teaching and educating people.

In Wu Cheng's eyes, these students are his hopes for the rest of his life.

Wu Cheng could understand Yuan Li's dissatisfaction, but he didn't want to explain.

In fact, Sheng Gong and Yuan Li belonged to the outstanding group of students in the Academy of Sciences last year.

The reason why they are not allowed to go west with the army is for the purpose of protecting them.

In the eyes of Wu Cheng, an old man of the Academy of Sciences, his own relatives and descendants have not yet broken away from the pattern of craftsmen.

Most of them have learned crafts from their parents since they were young, and have not received systematic education at all.

But Sheng Gong and Yuan Li are different.

When the two entered school, their knowledge was very good.

The education they have received since childhood has given them a strong logical thinking ability.

When learning the knowledge of the Academy of Sciences, it is often possible to comprehend by analogy.

Therefore, compared to other people, they can achieve twice the result with half the effort, and are the fastest progress among all the students.

Therefore, Wu Cheng trained them as the mainstay of the Academy of Sciences in the future.

For such people, Wu Cheng naturally didn't want them to go to the battlefield.

Although in the army, the talents of the Academy of Sciences will be well protected.

But that was war after all, and the Academy of Sciences couldn't afford such a loss.

Of course, it's inconvenient to tell Yuan Liming about these thoughts.

On the high platform in front, Kong Yu stood together with Bao Lingbai and others.

They are all high-level leaders in the Great Qin Academy who command the overall situation. In addition, Kong An has the experience of being an official in the imperial court, so they stand here to welcome Zhao Kun.

Working together in the Daqin Academy for a year, the former enemies were enemies, but now the relationship has eased a lot.

"I heard that Shusun Tong was in charge of drafting documents during the resolution meeting, and His Majesty values ​​him very much!"

Kong Yu raised his eyelids and said to Bao Lingbai.

Shusuntong is Bao Lingbai's disciple, but because of different ideas, the two had disputes. Later, Shusuntong made friends with Chunyu Yue and worshiped him as his teacher, so he left Baolingbai voluntarily and did not get along with him. .

On weekdays, when Kong Yu was in front of Bao Lingbai, he would disdain to mention Uncle Sun Tong.

Bringing it up at this time naturally has ulterior motives.

Sure enough, Bao Lingbai snorted coldly.

"Don't mention that traitor in front of me!"

Some time ago, the Confucian School of the Daqin Academy wanted to send students to give lectures in the school building in Guanzhong to promote Confucianism.

Logically speaking, this is a great thing.

Because Daqin had a large base of Confucian students, the Confucian students recruited by the academy were all selected from the best.

The school buildings for compulsory education placed in Guanzhong are no longer top talents.

These people take the initiative to give voluntary lectures, which is a great thing for school children.

For this reason, Bao Lingbai approached Shu Suntong, who was in charge of the matter, and wanted him to issue a permit order.

Unexpectedly, Shu Suntong refused decisively.

Shu Suntong said that the Daqin Academy gathered hundreds of schools.

If he agreed to the Confucian School today, then the Law School will come to him someday, should he agree?
What should he do when other famous experts come to him?

Walking through hundreds of schools in turn, will it hinder the normal progress of school teaching?

Bao Lingbai was furious, saying that this idea was proposed by the Confucian school, and naturally only the Confucian school can do it.

Unexpectedly, Shu Suntong told him.

Now that he is in charge of the education affairs of the imperial court, he must behave in a bowl of water.

The sages have said that they don't worry about being few, but about unevenness.

If Bao Lingbai forced him again, he would hang up his seal and leave immediately.

Speaking of this point, the former master and apprentice naturally broke up unhappy.

For some reason, this incident reached Kong Yu's ears.

Kong Yu laughed three times at that time, saying that Shusun Tong's style of doing things has his own demeanor.

The angry Bao Lingbai almost fought with Kong Yu on the spot.

Now that Kong Yu brought up this matter again, Bao Lingbai was naturally extremely upset.

However, Kong Yu did not retort.

Inviting Zhao Kun to the academy today is a major event for all schools in the academy.

He didn't want to ruin a big deal because he was in line with Kong Yu.

"Today is a heavy responsibility. If you have the leisure to sacrifice wine, why don't you talk about it later when you play with His Majesty."

Bao Ling said with a white smile.

Kong Yu froze for a moment, then sighed.

When he was in the court before, Kong Yu was all about letting Emperor Shihuang implement the enfeoffment system. It can be said that he is a diehard of the enfeoffment system.

However, the state of Qin was chaotic and changed, and the changes were re-established. After the ups and downs, he felt that the system was not so important.

Now that he has returned to Xianyang, he was invited by Zhao Kun to join the Daqin Academy.

After staying in Daqin Academy for a year, he seemed to be a different person.

Now, all of Kong Yu's thoughts are on how to improve the influence of the Great Qin Academy.

After a year of operation, Kong Yu finally straightened out the relationship between the various schools within the academy.

Including Confucianism, which was almost at odds with Legalism before, is getting along harmoniously now.

Internal stability will naturally seek other things.

And this time Kong Yu went to great lengths to invite Zhao Kun to come here for this purpose.

In the past, the State of Qi built the Jixia Academy.

Because of Qi State's unremitting support, Jixia Academy quickly became famous all over the world.

Coupled with its relatively open atmosphere, it has attracted hundreds of big names to settle in one after another.

However, although the Jixia Academy has a great momentum, it is only in terms of learning.

Even if the power of hundreds of schools is gathered, the influence in the government seems to be a little bit small.

The reason is, of course, because there is no corresponding support.

But the most important thing is that the scholars at that time were all devoted to learning, and they were not particularly enthusiastic about becoming an official.

But the Daqin Academy is obviously different from the Jixia Academy.

The Daqin Academy is run by the government and is the highest-level college in Daqin.

Although Zhao Kun didn't say it clearly, everyone knew it very well.

The talents cultivated by the Daqin Academy are destined to enter the imperial court through the imperial examination in the future.

In this case, the Daqin Academy naturally has a certain ability to influence the court.

On the other hand, the current Daqin Academy has gathered the top knowledge in the country.

All the masters of the hundred schools gather here, which is a resounding golden signboard in itself.

Among these people, there are those who are not keen on fame and fortune like the leaders of famous schools, and there are also great scholars like Shang Shan Sihao who are obsessed with learning after being frustrated in court.

More are courtiers like Kong Yu and Bao Lingbai who have retired from the court.

Whether they are willing or not, for the benefit of the Great Qin Academy, they must be twisted together.

Daqin Academy needs to make its own voice in Daqin.

When the school was first established, this idea was not very obvious.

However, the Daqin Academy has been in operation for a year now.

In the second imperial examination held last month, a total of 87 students from the Daqin Academy participated.

In the end, these 87 students all passed the imperial examination and entered the imperial court as officials.

This result made the masters of the hundred schools extremely excited.

They think that the time has come for Daqin Academy to ask Zhao Kun for more right to speak.

That's why I asked Zhao Kun to come to the academy to give a lecture.

This idea was proposed by Kong Yu.

Kong Yu is the ninth grandson of Confucius. He not only studied the classics of his own sages, but also learned from Xunzi, the last great Confucian in the Warring States period. Xunzi was also the sacrificial wine of Jixia Academy.

Therefore, no one knows the reasons for the decline of Jixia Academy better than Kong Yu.

Kong Yu clearly understood the reason why his teacher failed to achieve anything in his official career despite being a pedantic teacher.

Xunzi was so arrogant.

Moreover, although Xunzi was a great Confucian of his generation, his thinking was biased towards the Huang-Lao theory, which emphasized governance by doing nothing.

It is precisely because of this relatively negative political thinking that Xunzi has been criticized.

At the beginning, Qi Fei Wang Tian made great achievements and wanted to enter Jixia Academy to give lectures.

But Xunzi resolutely refused on the grounds that the abolished king was ignorant.

Qi Fei Wang was furious, although he still respected Xunzi on the surface.

But then, citing the war as an excuse, they began to reduce the support for Jixia Academy.

In this way, Jixia Academy was gradually abandoned.

This incident also became a stain in Xunzi's life.

After the first emperor unified the world, the Qi State perished, and the Jixia Academy disappeared with it.

The first emperor ascended Mount Tai to enshrine Zen and set up 73 doctors, but he did not accept Lu Ru's suggestion and reopened the school.

Although it is to appease the hearts of Confucianists, why is there no idea that the school is useless?

But today is different.

Today's Daqin Academy has only been in operation for one year, and it already has the intention of reshaping the glory of hundreds of schools.

During the one year of serving as a school wine, Kong Yu has completely changed his appearance. He is no longer the old Kong Qiu who doesn't care about anything and is stubborn.

At this time, he is determined to make the theory of a hundred schools of thought popular and spread for thousands of years.

In this case, don't say that Zhao Kun is not an unlearned and incompetent person like King Qi Fei, even if Zhao Kun is such a person, Kong Yu will recognize him by pinching his nose.

He would not wait for Zhao Kun to propose, but directly invited Zhao Kun on behalf of the academy.

Master of Heaven and Earth.

Since the First Emperor's Jedi Tiantong, let alone the heaven and the earth.

Zhao Kun is the king, so he has already occupied the road of human relations.

Last year, when the Academy was established for the first time, hundreds of families worshiped the emperor, which only made the relationship between the Academy and Zhao Kun a little closer.

On this basis, why not go further?
At this time, there was a faint noise outside.

Kong Yu and Bao Lingbai looked at each other, and hurriedly walked outside.

As soon as they went out, they saw Zhao Kun walking towards this side surrounded by several guards.

Before Kong Yu could speak, Bao Lingbai next to him uttered angrily.

"Why is Your Majesty so simple? Where is Jiang Chao?"

In the past, Bao Lingbai, as a courtier, would never have spoken so forcefully and called Jiang Chao by his first name.

But at this time, his status is noble, but he doesn't care about these.

Zhao Kun froze for a moment, as if he was not used to Bao Lingbai, who was always upright, talking like this.

"Mr. Bao, there is no need to be like this. The left and right are just the land in the middle of the pass. My safety is safe!"

This is said with great confidence.

If it was the time of the first emperor, the world was initially settled, and the six kingdoms were unified, but it was not stable.

The first emperor went on tour several times and was assassinated.

But at this time, Daqin had already revealed its prosperity.

After Zhao Kun's drastic reforms before, the old remnants of the Six Kingdoms have basically been wiped out.

Not to mention being in Guanzhong, even going to Lu, where the attack was the most ruthless before, Zhao Kun is quite confident.

Surrounded by bigwigs from various schools of thought, Zhao Kun came to the central square of the academy.

While walking, offering wine to Kong Yu, he introduced the current situation of the Academy to Zhao Kun.

"After two enrollments, there are 430 students in the academy, and there are 24 colleges. Among them, the law school has the largest number of Confucianism and the smallest number, and it is the Academy of Sciences."

While speaking, the group of people had already arrived at the high platform that Kong Yu and others had just set up.

Zhao Kun looked around and saw that the square was crowded with people.

Everyone looked at him excitedly.

After being emperor for more than a year, Zhao Kun has long been used to this kind of scene.

He smiled slightly and waved to the more than [-] students in the audience.

"Great Qin Wannian! Your Majesty Wannian!"

A student who was so excited that he couldn't control himself suddenly shouted at the top of his voice.

Immediately, many students in the audience echoed loudly.

Kong Yu, Bao Lingbai and the others watched this scene dumbfounded.

In their plan, the ceremony to welcome Zhao Kun should not have been the case.

After Zhao Kun came in, all the students should, under the leadership of their teachers, salute Zhao Kun as disciples.

Then, Kong Yu and others will take the opportunity to let Zhao Kun speak, and thoroughly realize that the students of the Daqin Academy are the emperor's disciples.

No one expected that things would develop to this point.

This sudden scene completely disrupted Kong Yu's plan.

What he didn't expect was that Zhao Kun was still smiling when faced with the students' welcome like countrymen, without any displeasure.
