My Confucian Father

Chapter 4 Yashan Academy
After finding out the cultivation system through Zhao Ming, Su Mu did not panic at all, and was full of hope for the future.

However, how to quickly step into this step is still a problem.

Although the father is a Confucian saint, he is not at home now.

The strongest person in the family is Zhao Ming's father, the old butler Zhao Fulai. According to Zhao Ming, he is a third-rank military repairman, a peerless powerhouse who ranks in the upper third rank.

The lower three ranks, the middle three ranks, and the upper three ranks are a division of ranks in this world.

Ninth to seventh ranks are only the lower third ranks, which are still at the level of mortals;

Those from the seventh to fourth ranks are called the middle three ranks. They are rare and strong, and they will be treated with courtesy wherever they are placed.

As for the upper third grade, it is really the mainstay of a country.

There are not many such strong men in the entire Great Yan Dynasty, and there are no more than five fingers on the surface.

One of them was Zhao Fulai, the housekeeper of the Confucian saint's mansion.

The treasures left by Confucian saints are protected in Zhenyao King's Mansion, and Zhao Fulai, a third-rank soldier, sits in the town, so even though Confucian saints have left for 15 years, no one dares to spy on the mansion.

"Go and find your father."

Su Mu greeted and asked Zhao Ming to lead the way, and went to the old housekeeper to learn more about Confucianism and Taoism.

After Zhao Fulai learned of Su Mu's intentions, he was extremely excited, and said with red eyes: "Okay! Okay! My son wants to follow Confucianism and Taoism. If the master knows, he will be very pleased!"

How can he not be happy when his son has just returned to normal and is about to start studying and practicing Confucianism.

"Uncle Fulai, did my father leave any powerful cultivation secrets?
Su Mu asked further, with expectation in his eyes.

Zhao Fulai is an old servant who has served his father for decades, he is now a part of the Su family, and is no longer a simple servant, so Mrs. Xu specially asked Su Mu to call him Uncle Fulai.

Zhao Fu said back: "Confucianism and Taoism are the easiest and most difficult path in the world.

The simplicity is that Confucianism cultivators only need to read more, write good poems, uphold the righteous way, and cultivate their talents and awe-inspiring spirit.Therefore, everyone can embark on the road of Confucianism and Taoism, and there are no cultivation methods to speak of.

But Confucianism Cultivator is also the most talented among all cultivation paths. Some corrupt Confucians have been trapped in the lower third rank for a lifetime, and may not be able to make a breakthrough because they are not talented enough.

In the same way, if the talent is outstanding, it is normal to cultivate to the third rank in just a few decades or even a few years.

In addition, the heart is also the most important.If the heart is not on the right path, and what you do is against morality, you will not be able to gather awe-inspiring spirit.No matter how talented one is, one cannot reach the third rank.

The master has all kinds of talents and talents, and at the same time adheres to the righteous way and leads by example, so he can cultivate a noble and righteous spirit, and finally become a Confucian saint. "

Su Mu was stunned, that cheap old man who became a saint before he was 30 years old turned out to be such a perfect person.

"Although I only started practicing at the age of 16, I can copy poems and articles, and my literary talents can be directly filled up. I should be able to quickly hit the third rank."

Su Mu secretly thought in his heart that China's cultural treasures made him full of confidence.

Zhao Fulai didn't know what was going on in his heart, and said, "Young Master, if you want to practice Confucianism, you must study hard and understand the principles of sages. At present, the best place for me to study in Dayan is Yashan Academy."

"Yashan Academy was founded by the old man back then, and now it has become the highest school of our Yan Dynasty, bringing together countless great Confucians."

"The old slave will explain the matter to his wife later, and arrange for the young master to study in Yashan Academy."

Yashan Academy was the top school in the Yan Dynasty, far beyond what Guozijian and others could compare to.

It is difficult for students to enter Yashan Academy, and it is even more difficult to get out.

If you fail the graduation examination three times in a row, you will be expelled from Yashan Academy and lose all your honors.

But the students who can graduate from Yashan Academy are all valued.

All in all, this is the place that all readers dream of entering.

Of course, for Su Mu, who has a Confucian father, it is easy to enter Yashan Academy.

"Okay, please trouble Uncle Fulai."

Su Mu readily agreed, just thinking about the life of the second-generation dandy who pretends to be so exciting is exciting!
If he doesn't enter the academy, then how can he show his holiness in front of others, and how can he pretend to be forced by poetry?
After talking about this matter, Su Mu asked again: "By the way, Uncle Fulai, what is the origin of that big red-haired bird in my yard? Is it really a spirit beast?"

He was very curious about the true origin of the big red-haired bird.

The corner of Zhao Fulai's mouth twitched, and said: "That bird flew over seven years ago, and brought back a piece of jade pendant that the master carried with him, saying that the master sent it to report his safety.

Since then, it has lived in the mansion. I don't know if it is a spirit beast, but it is not a monster, but it is greedy, and its mouth is stinky, making people want to stew it.

But every time it gets into trouble, it claims to be the master's sworn brother, and before the old slave knows the truth, he doesn't care about it. "

When we met for the first time, the big red-haired bird said that it was the sworn brother of Confucian saints, but Su Mu didn't take it to heart.

Hearing what the old butler said now, I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart. Could it be true?

……

Su Mu wanted to practice Confucianism and Taoism, and Zhao Fulai quickly told Xu Shi.

After Xu's listening, she didn't immediately agree.

Because in his opinion, Su Mu has just returned to normal now, and he should stay in the house for a while to cultivate. It would be too soon to start studying and practicing now.

She is not a mother who expects her son to become a dragon.

She only hoped that Su Mu would be safe and sound.

After seeing Xu's expression, Zhao Fulai said: "Madam, don't worry, Yashan Academy is a school founded by the master, and several of the Confucian scholars are students of the master. My son goes to school, and they will definitely take care of him."

Having said that, Xu Shi still hesitated, she said worriedly: "But Mu'er has never studied since she was a child, Yashan Academy is full of the best literati in Dayan, if he goes in, he will be ridiculed..."

This is what worries her the most.

For so many years, it has been said that Su Mu has been studying at home, but in fact Su Mu is always in a state of stupidity.

"Ma'am, this old slave has something to say and doesn't know whether to say it or not."

Zhao Fulai showed hesitation.

Mrs. Xu looked at him: "You are not an outsider, you can say whatever you want to say, don't worry about anything."

Only then did Zhao Fulai speak: "Ma'am, although Mr. Nuguan has returned to normal not long ago and knows nothing about the world, he is not as ignorant as a young child. On the contrary, he is quite intelligent and accepts new things very quickly."

"The old slave thinks that the young master should be the kind of person who is naturally intelligent, and the sky is jealous of talents, so he will be stupid for 16 years."

"Besides, since the young master has returned to normal, it would be too inappropriate to keep the young master in the house. It is better to let the young master go out more to get in touch with the outside world."

Mrs. Xu didn't speak, she pondered for a long time, and finally sighed quietly: "Then let him go."

"After all, I can't protect Mu'er forever, he has to learn to grow by himself."

"Fulai, go and arrange for Mu'er to go to school."

Although she was full of worries, Xu also understood that she couldn't hide Su Mu all the time, and he would have to contact the outside world after all.

As the son of a Confucian sage, he is destined to attract much attention.

"Yes, ma'am."

Zhao Fulai bowed his head respectfully, turned around and retreated.
