The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1279 Layout
Gao Shilian has also stayed in the academy for a long time. Xuan Shijing and the people in Xuan Shijing's family attach great importance to the academy, so Gao Shilian has to think too much. This Mingde Academy will definitely not be like Xuan Shijing As said, it is just an academy built for the children of Zhuangzi, so that the children of Zhuangzi can study. If so, why did the academy recruit him to be the head of the academy and bring Xiao Yu in.

If it was just to teach the children of Zhuangzi, there would be a lot of ordinary teachers in Chang'an, so why bother to spend so much effort?

Although Xiao Yu was dismissed six times, but when Xuan Shijing and Gao Shilian paid attention to Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu was still powerful in the court, and they only estimated that Xiao Yu would offend His Majesty Li Er, and then again Was demoted.

It turned out that when Xuan Shijing came back from Pyongyang, Xiao Yu was already teaching in the academy.

With Xiao Yu and Gao Shilian around, the academy is only temporarily ordinary.

Xuan Shijing is starting to lay out the layout. Mingde Academy is now just a small academy, and there are more than 70 children from Zhuangzi in the academy, but this academy is an experiment for Xuan Shijing, and the first batch of children, are the beneficiaries of this experiment.

He didn't hesitate to spend a lot of money to build the academy, and kept pouring money into the academy to keep the academy open. Gao Shilian couldn't think of Xuan Shijing's other intentions, maybe it was just to train outstanding talents for Datang?
And if these talents enter the imperial court in the future, they will all be disciples of the Xuan family. In this way, the foundation of the Xuan family in the Tang Dynasty will be stable.

Steady step by step, maybe the academy is mature, you need to wait for ten years, 20 years, or even 30 years or 40 years, Xuan Shijing can afford to wait, he is still young, if Xuan Shijing can't afford to wait, the Xuan family still has descendants , as long as the Xuan family does not fall, it will always wait until the day when the academy stands in the Tang Dynasty, because the academy was funded and built by the Xuan family, and the academy was built with money from the Xuan family.

This academy can also be regarded as Xuan Shijing's investment in Dongshan County's industry. Although it is insulting to describe the academy in this way, it is actually the case.

Although Xuan Shijing lived in a temple, he was never a pure literati, nor a pure official.

"Teacher, do you want this academy to stop here, or to continue to develop?" Xuan Shijing looked at Gao Shilian and asked.

"If it's beneficial to Datang, what's the point of letting it continue to grow?" Gao Shilian said with a smile: "I will do my best for the rest of my life to give you a hand."

Xuan Shijing heard the words, got up, and bowed respectfully: "Student, thank you teacher for your success."

"The matter of the academy is not for your family's benefit. If it is said that the students who benefit the most from it are the students in the academy, once they enter the academy, their fate may be changed." Gao Shilian said.

Gao Shilian also knew that those children from Xungui's family were taught by their own family members. They looked down on Mingde Academy, and they might also come for the name of himself and Xiao Yu, but in the final analysis, they were all in the school. There are almost no important children in the family. In addition, most of the people who come to apply for the academy should be children of ordinary people, such as children from village households in Dongshan County, because the cost of the academy is not much. Some of them are able to go to academies and read books.

"It's just that it's not enough for the old man and Mr. Xiao to be here in the academy." Gao Shilian said: "Although the old man and Mr. Xiao still have titles, they are not in the court after all. In front of the interests of each family, these relationships are as fragile as a spider's web, so this academy needs a stronger backer."

"Teacher, who do you think is suitable?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"Prince." Gao Shilian said: "This academy is now in your village. It doesn't look like a mountain, and its face is not big enough to attract His Majesty's attention. And you have a good relationship with the prince. It is most appropriate to bring the prince over. Your Majesty will not have any objections, and the Crown Prince will not be unhappy. After a few years, the Crown Prince will become the strongest backer of this academy. As for now, the plaque of your academy is your greatest protection. Your Majesty values ​​friendship the most. , just the name of this academy, plus your identity, even if something happens now, His Majesty still favors you."

"It's just that it's a bit too blunt to talk to the prince rashly." Xuan Shijing said, since he came back from Pyongyang, he hasn't seen Li Chengqian yet. Zhuangzi from Dongshan County came up, but there has been no response so far. It is estimated that the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and everyone has something to be busy on their hands.

"It doesn't matter, the prince knows the pros and cons of this matter." Gao Shilian said with a smile.

"If the prince is brought into the academy, how will it be arranged?" Xuan Shijing asked, is it possible that the prince should be the deputy head?When the crown prince was still the crown prince, the name didn't matter, as long as Gao Shilian stayed in the academy for a day and was the head of the academy for a day, even if the crown prince became the emperor, it didn't matter. After all, even Li Chengqian was also Gao Shilian's student. When Li Chengqian succeeded to the throne, he was still a student of Gao Shilian, so he would respectfully address Gao Shilian as a teacher when he saw Gao Shilian.

But what if Gao Shilian is no longer the head of the academy?
"If the crown prince can be brought into the academy, how can I be so distressed by the position of the mountain chief? Is the salary of the mountain chief as much as the old man received when he was working in Chang'an?" Gao Shilian said with a smile: "There is no need to worry about the old man."

"Teacher Gao Yi, if that's the case, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the students will go to the prince to discuss this matter. Besides, Teacher Lao will arrange the time for the students to attend classes in the academy." Xuan Shijing said, cupping his hands.

It can be seen that Gao Shilian is sincerely planning for the academy, and he proposed to find a backer for the academy. He suggested Xuan Shijing to recruit the crown prince to join the group, and also gave up his position as the head of the academy.

Although as long as Gao Shilian is around, Li Chengqian will never take the seat of the mountain chief, but he must have an attitude and speak beautifully.

"Okay." Gao Shilian agreed.

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Xuan Shijing spent it at her own home. On August [-]th, Xuan Shijing took Jinyang to Chang'an to attend a family banquet in the palace. Stay for two days.

During the royal family banquet in the palace, Xuan Shijing and Jin Yang sat at the same table. After three rounds of wine and five flavors, the atmosphere of the banquet became lively. Xuan Shijing and Li Chengqian got together and talked about It's about the academy.

"Is there anyone still thinking about your academy? It's really idle." Li Chengqian said with a smile: "It's okay, no one cares about your small academy."
