Li Hongbi felt a little numb.
There seemed to be only one way for him to go now.
That is to do our best to revitalize the Imperial College and help the Imperial College students to take the high school exam!
At least, he has to guarantee one thing, that is, 30% of the Imperial Academy students must be on the list. They can no longer be on the exam list, which is all Southern scholars, as in the past, otherwise the dog emperor will definitely settle the score with him, Li Hongbi!
Li Hongbi couldn't help but get angry when he thought of this.
good very good!
Dog Emperor, you XXXXX...
Since you are all forcing me, don't blame me for being unkind.
"Master Jiejiu, it is possible to revitalize the Imperial College, but it must be done according to my method!"
Hearing this, Hu Yan suddenly felt very uneasy.
In fact, during the reign of Emperor Taizu Gao, the Imperial College was very strict in its governance, and the usage of the Imperial College at that time was extremely strict.
For example, during the Hongwu period, Song Ne, the imperial minister who offered sacrifices to wine, was a notoriously cruel leader.
During the Hongwu period, Emperor Taizu Gao changed the sacrificial wine in the Imperial College many times. The reason was that "teaching has been abolished for a long time, and now teachers and students are in conflict with each other, which is very disrespectful."
To put it simply, the atmosphere of the Imperial College is too bad. The teachers are not like teachers and cannot be role models. The students are not like students. They have no interest in learning and do not do their jobs properly. The entire teaching style and academic style of the Imperial College are in a mess. The so-called "teacher's dignity" has become a joke. .
Before Song Ne, Emperor Taizu Gao had already appointed six Imperial College officials to offer sacrifices to wine. However, although the Imperial College had achieved some results under their management, they were far from reaching his expected goals.
The graduates of the Imperial College would become officials in the future, which was the mainstream way to select officials at that time.
The rapid expansion of the number of students in the Imperial College has led to a serious decline in the quality of students. In particular, most of the children of meritorious officials, officials, and military generals are arrogant and undisciplined. They have no intention of studying, disobey teachers, and fights are often banned.
So Emperor Taizu Gao successively replaced the six Imperial College Princes, and Song Ne came to the throne.
Song Ne's academic thoughts can be summed up in two words: severe.
As soon as Song Na took office, he "asked the superiors to strictly establish academic regulations" and added "eight supervisory regulations".
Five of the "Eight Supervisory Regulations" are specific to students, involving assessment content, methods, admission criteria, attendance, discipline and other aspects.
For example, when Guo Zisheng went home on personal leave, he was also sentenced to guard the border. It was simply used indiscriminately and was extremely harsh.
After Hu Yan took office, he immediately abolished these strict prison regulations. He originally wanted to do the best for the students, but he never expected that the academic style of the Imperial College began to become lazy because of this, and he looked like he had returned to Song Ne. posture.
Now listening to what Li Hongbi said, Hu Yan also realized the seriousness of the problem.
But he had a tolerant temper and couldn't help but say: "I can give you the power of the Imperial Academy, but you can't be like that Song Ne, who always goes too far and never goes as far as he should!"
Li Hongbi laughed when he heard this and said: "Master Jijiu, actually your kind of thinking is very problematic, and it's a big problem!"
"As the saying goes, a strict teacher produces a good disciple. This is actually for the benefit of the students. You see, I, Li Hongbi, treat the three little ones very harshly. Although they have suffered a little and are tired, they have achieved the top three results in the provincial examination. Is there anything wrong with this? Isn’t that right?”
"Let's think about it on the other hand, you have a merciful temperament and treat students well, but this is just laissez-faire. Students are not like students, and teachers are not like teachers. As a result, the atmosphere of the Imperial College is in a mess. Those students can study if they want to, but eat, drink and have fun if they don't. If things go on like this, sooner or later, the Imperial College will be discredited!"
Hu Yan opened his mouth, wanting to say something else.
However, Li Hongbi didn't give him a chance and said a heart-wrenching sentence.
"To put it bluntly, Lord Jijiu, do you think this is really good for those students?"
Hu Yan was startled when he heard this, as if he had been struck by lightning.
"They are living a comfortable life now, but what about their future?"
"Those Jiangxi talents failed in the National Examination, and it is even more difficult to select officials for the Imperial College. They have no hope at all in the Imperial College, and they are just wasting their youth."
"When they fail over and over again, and when they finally wake up, instead of being grateful for the preferential treatment given to them by Lord Jijiu, they will actually hate Master Jijiu for this preferential treatment. Penetrating to the bone!”
"If you, the Lord Jijiu, were a little stricter on them and strictly urged them to go to school, they might be able to go to high school or be elected officials. Anyway, they wouldn't end up as a down-and-out scholar who has accomplished nothing and spent most of his life in the field. Inside the Imperial College!"
"Lord Jijiu, these students have traveled thousands of miles to study here at the Imperial College. What they don't want is ease and peace! What they want is the science entrance examination for high school, what they want is an official career, and what they want is a bright future!"
"You have done it wrong from the beginning!"
Hu Yan looked at Li Hongbi blankly, his face gradually turning pale.
In fact, he has always wondered why the Imperial Academy gradually began to decline after he had it in his hands.
Even if it is because of the strict calendar system established by Emperor Taizu Gao, in the first two major examinations after the imperial examination during the Hongwu period, the Imperial College students achieved excellent results. Thirty-one of them were successful, and 11 of them were from Imperial College. In the palace examination, students from Imperial College occupied the top three!
As a result, most of the students in the Imperial Academy do not even dare to take part in the examination, as if they are some kind of scourge, not to mention the few who have won the exam!
When he thought of this, Hu Yan's face turned pale as paper.
It seems like he was really wrong!
This is ruining the future of these students!
"Hongbi, what do you want to do? I fully support you!"
Hu Yan figured out the key and became ruthless, deciding to completely delegate power to Li Hongbi.
After all, he has realized his mistake, and with Li Hongbi's provincial examination results right in front of him, he is undoubtedly the one who can turn the tide!
Li Hongbi ordered with a deep look: "From now on, Song Ne's Imperial College regulations will be restored. At least until the end of the general examination, they must be strictly followed!"
"In addition, summon all the gentlemen and students of the Imperial College, and I want to give a lecture before the edict of Emperor Taizu Gao!"
Hearing this, Hu Yan couldn't help but tremble.
During the Hongwu period, Song Ne died of illness due to overwork and took office. After his death, the conduct of the Imperial College declined again. The "dignity of the teacher's way" that Emperor Taizu Gao admired gradually declined in the direction of "the decay of the way of the teacher."
Emperor Taizu Gao was worried about this and personally formulated the school rules. However, the Imperial College students who were well fed and fed by the country did not listen to Emperor Taizu Gao's teachings or warnings. Some students even took the lead in making trouble and started a student unrest.
Emperor Taizu Gao was so furious that he directly ordered the leaders of the troubled students to "show their heads to the public" and issued an edict reminding scholars to respect their teachers and abide by school rules. "Those who violate the school rules" should be Lingchi, the leader of the owl, the exile of the owl, the exile of the army, and the exile of the army.
His oracle has now become the "school motto" of the Imperial College and has been preserved to this day.
Hu Yan couldn't bear it in his heart and opened his mouth to say something else.
But Li Hongbi blocked him with just one word.
"Master Jijiu, whether the student's future is more important or temporary comfort is more important, Master Jijiu must decide clearly!"
"Being lenient for a moment will only cause endless harm!"
Hu Yan fell into deep thought again after hearing this, and finally sighed.
"That's all, I'll do as you say!"
"I'll let Yue Bin prepare now!"
