There have been no children in the Qiliang Academy as usual in recent days. Just like the Huiying Building in the capital, many wooden carts were obtained from unknown sources. At first, it was still very confusing, but soon the wooden carts were lit. The car was emitting gusts of cool breeze, which aroused the curiosity of many students who were extremely hot. They stepped forward to take a look. They were all weighing instruments. Among them, many students who usually like such things turned out to be I was gearing up to remove the outer skin of the wooden cart so I could have a closer look at its structure. However, I found out that the wooden cart was extremely heavy, as if it were wrapped in iron and wood. No matter how much force I exerted, I took a knife and ax to chop it down, but in the end it was just There is a very light white mark, which cannot be seen at all.
The academy is such a weird place to think about. It is said to be heavily bureaucracy. In addition to respecting teachers, there are also many rare rules that ordinary people have never heard of. Even many teachers in the building have different rules. Different, maybe when you want to see a teacher for advice, you need to take a shower and change clothes, and be neatly and neatly dressed, not even the slightest bit this week. But when you want to see another teacher for advice, you have to rub your hair into a bun as messy as possible. If you choose old clothes, you can get some dedicated teachings.
However, except for asking teachers for advice, there are almost no rules at all in the Qiliang Academy. You can even see groups of students surrounding each other, throwing arrows and pots, or two people sitting cross-legged and talking, but what they say is true. The debates between Buddhists and Taoists even attract many people to listen. In the end, the winner always has to hit the loser on the forehead twice to win the Taoist debate. The reason why Qiliang Academy is the most talented academy in the entire Qi Dynasty is that everyone who enters this place, no matter what their hobbies are, can find like-minded opponents or friends, and start the world every year. , just put all the knowledge or skills that you have gained over and over again, and be evaluated by the great teachers and teachers in Qiliang Academy. If you have not wasted your time, even if you are not good enough in the eyes of others, Knowledge can also be regarded as the best.
In the past, there was a student who was interested in studying water conservancy and river transport. He told his teacher that he would go out for two years and go to various rivers and rivers to tan his originally fair skin, and then return. In the Qiliang Academy, he took out a book with almost a million words written eloquently and handed it to the palm of the senior gentleman in the academy, which caused a lot of ridicule. He said that such difficult and elegant knowledge was actually required. Please take a look at Mr. Xu Gongda. He is really not afraid of getting into trouble and being expelled from Qiliang Academy.
But after Mr. Da finished reading this book, he was very happy. He wrote a letter overnight and sent it to Na'an, the capital, to get a sixth-grade official for this student who was obsessed with building canals and dams. , was in charge of damming and dredging rivers that often suffered from floods in Shangqi territory. In less than three years, he was promoted to the fourth rank official position due to his achievements in flood control, although he was never in the capital. He rushed to the river crossings in various places to explore the surrounding mountains and rivers, but since it was a good job and he had gained an important position, he naturally made many people envious.
Zhou Kefa sat in a corner as usual, with a chessboard in front of him, but he also had a lot of extra work, and he was probably a teacher in several schools. Seeing that Mr. Zhou had nothing to do, he specially sent these few The disciples were sent to Zhou Kefa's seat to listen to the lecture. At first, several students were very high-spirited and thought that Zhou Kefa was just a mediocre person who was only proficient in chess and had nothing to do in his spare time. However, after Mr. Zhou reminded him a few times, they all dismissed it out of excitement, and it was too much. He added a bit of respect. On the other hand, Zhou Kefa was very casual and did not allow these students to do anything. Instead, he often advised them to go out for a walk and visit remote places like that. Never mention studying. Just think of it as a great undertaking, and just do what you want, and you don’t need to worry about it every day, just make a living.
Today, Zhou Kefa had nothing to do, but he was also attracted by the wooden cart. He squeezed in from the crowd and took a closer look. Without saying anything, he turned around and left, continuing to return. When I went to my chess stall, I closed my eyes and rested my mind, feeling the cool breeze passing by, so I couldn't help but wrap myself up in clothes from time to time.
"Sir, you are in a good mood, but no matter how educated you are, you still have to remember to take care of your body. It is rare to see someone who is as fierce as a tiger in the dog days of summer and still wears a heavy long gown."
"There's nothing you can do about aging. You can't have wishful thinking. You're clearly in your fifties, and compared with young people like you, you're always a little ignorant." Zhou Kefa shook his head, not allowing Ao to look up. Knowing that today's visitor is another young man who often comes to learn chess, the ugly scholar recently went on a study tour, and this handsome young man is the only regular visitor to the chess stall, so he handed over the chess box without raising his head.
"The old rule is, the black one goes first."
The handsome student showed some embarrassment, but his throat rolled twice, and he took the chess box with great difficulty. Then he reached out to touch his arms and kept silent. Then he asked in a low voice, "Mr. Zhou, this time I didn’t bring enough silver, and if I’m defeated again, you can see if you can keep it on credit and pay it back tomorrow.”
Zhou Kefa remained calm, but when he saw this handsome student choosing an odd place, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "Although most of the students in Qiliang Academy are well-established students, not everyone has the same wealth. Yinshi, for example, you, a young man, are dressed up and dressed up with the people around you. Even if you are good-looking and have a good demeanor, your clothes are not as gorgeous as others. Therefore, based on this alone, you can tell that your family situation is not good. A thick column.”
"Compared to a scholar from a poor family, a young man from an aristocratic family naturally has it easier every step of the way. Others may have worked hard for a long time, only to realize in the end that some people were born with a higher starting point. You are also among them, so you are depressed between your eyebrows. My anger has not gone away for a long time, am I right?"
Mr. Zhou picked an equally weird corner corner and looked up at the person sitting opposite him. "If God is aware, there will never be any such thing as leveling a bowl of water. Some people may be born with missing limbs, but they may not be able to survive." Some people die in infancy before reaching their prime, but some people are born with strong bones, photographic memory, and the ability to spy on people. When it comes to these things, no one can change them. Their fate is determined by fate. At least the time of birth is different. Previous section. However, students from poor families are not meritocratic. You must have heard the nursery rhyme about a good general being as timid as a chicken. If you have any thoughts, you might as well take this opportunity to share your thoughts."
"It's just a game of chess. Sir, that's too far." The handsome student lowered his eyebrows slightly and dropped another piece, "Qiliang Academy is already a very good place. Apart from the aristocratic families, there are also many students from poor families. Being recommended by capable officials from all over the world is a unique blessing in this world, and there are still some things that I am not satisfied with. According to my family background, before the Qiliang Academy was established, I had to travel around to study under teachers, and the skills I learned were uneven. , now I am content.”
"Besides, sir, no matter how you move, what you and I are talking about is only one side of the chessboard. We have no ability to overturn the chessboard, so why bother thinking about it."
"Someone has to try, not to mention it is a good thing that benefits the country and the people. The fewer mountains on your shoulders, the more peaceful the world will be. With those two words, you can defend your position and then check and balance with the surrounding countries. In my opinion, It is supposed to be a very solid method in the first place, let alone how many talented people it will take to live among the people."
The handsome scholar took a look at the chessboard, only to see that Zhou Kefa's chess situation changed, taking advantage of the situation everywhere, steadily killing all the weird chess moves he had been studying for several days, and before he reached the middle game, he was already The situation was irreversible. He frowned deeply. After thinking about it again and again, he still had no choice but to admit defeat. He took out some scattered coins from his arms, but was stopped by Zhou Kefa.
"I told you a long time ago that I won't accept any money today, but I will give you some money instead."
Zhou Kefa took it out from his sleeve. There was nothing in his palm, but he took the hand of the handsome young man and used his hand to write two lines on it.
"Everyone in the world is private, so this word is the biggest, isn't it more expensive than money?"
Zhou Kefa made another stroke and said with a smile on his face, "If this is the general trend, then being the first to break the situation will be so glorious."
"There is always someone who wants to try to see if this path works. There is no need to worry about having no one behind you. If it is right, there is no need to worry too much."
The handsome scholar looked at his empty palm for a long time, but no matter how he looked, he could still see those two words, so he quickly stood up, saluted, and seemed to be running away.
But this time, the scholar, who had never been strict about etiquette, bowed deeply.
"This road is muddy and has many obstacles. You may have to walk many steps in the end. When you see the end of the road, you will have to bear the wrath of many people. After all, many people have stayed in that position for a long time. They are just members of the Immortal Family Sect. Even a wild dog supported by a door needs to wrap itself up with a layer of superiority. It always feels that it is a head above others." Mr. Zhou put down the chess pieces and did not pack up the chessboard. Instead, he climbed up on his own and walked to the top floor of Qiliang Academy. Go to the hillside and look at the capital in the distance.
There is a disciple in the capital who he loves very much, but he cannot exchange letters at this juncture, and he cannot leave himself in the daylight because he knows that many people do not want to see his disciple ascending to the court. .
There are countless young people in the capital who come to try their luck. Their knowledge may be high or low, but most of them will not be able to get an official position or even get enough food and clothing for the rest of their lives. There are still several middle-ranking officials in the imperial city in the capital who come to Qiliang Academy again and again in order to climb two more steps. Now they have got their wish, so even if they don't leave Qiliang Academy Half a step into the palace, many things that others don't know can also fall into one's ears.
The tall and thin man in his fifties raised his sleeves, patted away the dust, and said three words with calm eyes.
"Zhou Kefa, you are so dirty."
