For Zhang Yue, Taixue was revisiting old places.

When Zhang Yue was studying at Imperial College, the person in charge of Gou Guozijian was "Tie Yushi" Wu Zhongfu.

Now that Zhang Yue has taken office as a new official, the Imperial Superintendent, the Chief Registrar, and the Zhizhi Lecturers all accompanied Zhang Yue to the "Zhishan Hall" to pay homage to the Holy Master.

After paying homage to their ancestor, everyone sat down and chatted in the hall.

The eight direct teachers are responsible for teaching, the supervisor, the chief clerk, the cashier of Qiangu, and the clerk.

They are all ordinary Beijing officials or selected people. Among them, Liu Jiancheng is only a prince, but he is also a Yin official, that is, he has a mixed background.

It's a bit of a coincidence that this Liu Jiancheng was the one who almost married his daughter to Huang Haoyi...

As for the person who has jurisdiction over the Imperial College, it is not called the Imperial College. Originally, the highest official position was the Supervisor of the Imperial College (Pan Jian), and the Supervisor of the Imperial College (Pan Imperial) was appointed by ministers with two or more systems.

As for officials under the two systems, they are only in charge of the official affairs of the Imperial College, referred to as Guan Gou.

Although Zhang Yue is waiting to be controlled, he has not been promoted to the two systems and can only be called Guan Gou.

Guan Gou Guozijian has certain personnel rights. For example, Guozijian Storytellers and Guozijian Lectures can be recruited by themselves without being appointed by the court.

Similar to this is the county school. The education and teachings of the government school are also established by the county magistrate or the magistrate.

Of course, there are also student representatives, such as Guozijianzheng and Guozijianlu, who are selected from among the students and awarded official positions by the imperial court. They are given prestige and assist the school in managing the school's school spirit and discipline.

This was the case when Zhang Yue was studying at Taixue. The students were in charge of their own affairs. Down below, there were also the chiefs of the cells, who managed the cells. The teachers generally did not care about anything except teaching.

Finally, there are the library officer, the kitchen supervisor, the zhiza (cabinet), the assistant chief (the highest official among the subordinates), the subordinate officer, and the assistant (responsible for copying books). These are all miscellaneous officials and are not qualified to appear in Zhishantang today. .

There is a clear distinction between officials and officials.

At the same time, there are also the official positions of Imperial Prime Minister and Imperial Doctor, but they are only used for promotion of their own officials and do not actually work in the Imperial Academy.

Everyone sat down and chatted for a while. Logically speaking, their official positions were very different from Zhang Yue's, so they should be very respectful.

But this is not the case. Except for the Chief Supervisor and the Chief Supervisor, all the others treated Zhang Yue with neither arrogance nor condescension, and treated each other with courtesy.

He talks directly about classics and history, and is highly respected by students. They do not need to ask for help other than teaching and educating people, so compared with other officials, they naturally lack the worship of power.

There are Jiao Qianzhi and Yan Fu in the direct speech...

Jiao Qianzhi, Zhang Yue treated him with great respect, because Jiao Qianzhi was a disciple of Ouyang Xiu, and at the same time, he was also the private school teacher invited by Lu Gong to teach his children.

In the sixth year of Jiayou's reign, Jiao Qianzhi was recommended by Lu Gongzhu to become the direct lecturer of the Imperial Academy.

As for Yan Fu, the forty-eighth grandson of Yan Zi, he was also promoted by Ouyang Xiu and given a Jinshi background. In the fourth year of Zhiping, he became the direct lecturer of the Imperial Academy.

In addition, there are Liang Shimeng and Lu Tong. Lu Tong also taught Zhang Yue at the beginning and has absolute seniority. There is also one person who seems to be the most difficult to get along with. This person's name is Su Ye... He is the son of Su Shunqin and Zhang Shen's son. son in law.

Su Ye was the first to say: "I heard that Wang Jiefu said that Taixue was established in the Third Dynasty. In fact, it was just a place for nobles to learn etiquette, not a place to impart knowledge and research."

"It wasn't until the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that the school was really established in the current sense, and it was also a real government-run school. I wonder what Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty will do next?"

Zhang Yue knew that Su Ye was testing his political opinions. Zhang Yue didn't like the atmosphere where he had to express his opinions on everything, which could easily lead to strife in the officialdom.

Zhang Yue said vaguely: "Although Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty promoted the Imperial College, it was not as good as that of Emperors Shun and Zhi of the Han Dynasty. At that time, the Imperial College had 540 rooms and 1,850 rooms. There were 30,000 people in the Imperial College. How can it be compared to today?"

At this time, Jiao Qianzhi said: "I heard that Zhang Daizhi is in favor of building a school?"

Zhang Yue thought to himself that he had never said that, but he had never denied it either. This time, he relied on Zhang Heng to promote his own ideas.

Zhang Yue said: "Jiao Zhi said that school matters are ordered by the officials. If you want to be in power, you must use scholars who focus on Confucian classics to wait for the imperial court to build schools."

"Scholars concentrate on Confucian classics, waiting for the court to build schools? Could this mean that the court is using schools to lure the world's elites?" Liang Shimeng asked.

Liang Shimeng was a Jinshi scholar in Jiayou's second year and a student of Ouyang Xiu. He was also recommended by Wu Kui as a direct lecturer of Taixue. Wu Kui and Wang Anshi didn't deal with them either.

Before Zhang Yue spoke, Lu Tong said: "As the saying goes, it is beneficial to the country. How can it be wrong? I just hate that we can't accomplish our merits!"

Zhang Yue nodded to Lu Tong, knowing that he was helping him out. After all, his teacher was the most reliable.

Zhang Yue said: "School matters are important for the imperial court to select talents. I, the new superintendent of Gou Guozijian, were going to discuss it with you, but time did not wait for me. This time I came to take charge of Gou's affairs. I was in the Political Affairs Hall to listen to the hearing, so I had to go first. Your immature views are being made public."

Zhang Yue came here according to the decree this time. He had to take care of Wang Anshi's affairs first, so that he could have room to perform.

Zhang Yue didn't want to offend anyone by doing things for Wang Anshi, so he simply blamed him: "Xiangong's idea is that the people chosen by the former king must be from the township party and the prefecture. Therefore, it is said that schools are used to lure the world." Gentlemen, you can all have your own opinions."

"As for the method of selecting scholars, it must be based on the school. This also means that morality is at the top, and customs are at the bottom. This matter of changing poems and poems into classics and meanings is still discussed in the temple, but the Imperial College is the preface of the imperial court. We must go first, thinking that the customs will gradually fade away.”

After listening to Zhang Yue's words, everyone knew what a moral code was. The decree on the reform of the imperial examination is still under discussion, but the imperial court has decided to push it down through the official school and the Imperial College, influence the township party (scholars) through Xiangxu (school), and then through the township party. The party affects customs (school style and folk customs).

Yan Fu said: "How to change it? The imperial court wants to replace poetry with Confucian classics. However, since the Tang Dynasty, the world has been using poetry to win scholars for hundreds of years. Once the imperial examination is changed, how can the world obey?"

Zhang Yue said: "So it must start from the school. Taixue first changed from poetry to classics and meanings, then it was the state and county schools, and then it was the world's scholars. Such a trend also changed. A few years later, the imperial examination changed from poetry to poetry. It will be a matter of course if the Fu is changed to Classical Meaning.”

"This is the intention of Zhongshu, and we are not allowed to change it!"

After Zhang Yue finished speaking, everyone in the hall was silent.

This new method originated from Taixue, but in just a few years, can it change the centuries-old custom of selecting scholars through poetry and poetry since the Tang Dynasty?

"If the court changes back to poetry a few years later...could it be that Mr. Wang alone has the final say in the temple?" Su Ye questioned.

That’s right, the reform of the imperial examination has been going through many changes.

From Fan Zhongyan to Ouyang Xiu, it has been changing, from emphasizing poetry and prose to emphasizing articles, and now it is emphasizing classics and meanings.

Zhang Yue said: "Don't worry, everyone, it won't change again this time! At least it won't change when you and I were in Taixue."

Zhang Yue didn't want to continue arguing with them, so he simply asked: "Is there anything else?"

Liu Jiancheng stood up and said: "The report is about the money the imperial court owes the Imperial College..."
