The new teaching system announced to the world by Xuanyuan Academy soon afterwards also quickly caused waves throughout the Wen Dynasty.
Everyone was initially surprised that in a short period of time, several bachelors and literati at the Hanlin level had joined the academy, making it one of the most powerful in terms of teaching staff.
The sudden arrival of the teaching system immediately attracted everyone's attention. Although there were many brand-new concepts in it, even though they had not been seen before, they already made people think about it in just a few words.
However, some people praised it, while others naturally refuted it.
Some people feel that this new system is not appropriate. The various county schools, government schools, and academies in the Wen Dynasty were all designed to cultivate students from all walks of life as quickly as possible.
But in Xuanyuan, realm is no longer the first priority, and even many mandatory experiences have changed here.
This can't help but make people a little worried, and they even think that if they act like this, the students who come out in the future may be more cowardly.
Some of them refuted this system because they were dissatisfied with the Wen Dynasty and wanted to punish them. However, the identities of Song Mu and Qin Gang, the former princes and princes, were enough to dispel such thoughts.
With the emperor's imperial edict allowing the new system and expansion of the academy, such rumors disappeared.
But in Xuanyuan Academy, some different scenes began to appear.
Over the past few days, tens of thousands of students have come here to study, and every day the academy lecture hall is packed with people.
It's just that some of them are not here to study, but to disturb the situation.
Every day in the lecture hall, there are students who make things difficult in front of the teacher, using the slogan of seeking knowledge, refuting them completely and never agreeing with the views of famous teachers, which makes both teachers and students in the field very dissatisfied.
"Master, we must not sit idly by in this situation. Yesterday, someone said that Master was ruthless in his studies as a way to vent his anger. This really made me extremely angry. I tossed and turned last night, wishing I could go back and confront that guy yesterday."
On this day, Song Mu had just left the academy, preparing to go to the lecture hall to give his lecture today. However, Li Dong who followed him had a sullen expression on his face, which was different from Song Mu's angriness.
Li Dong had long been aware of the changes in the lecture hall, but no one caused trouble every time he took care of it. Once he was gone, many things would happen, and the academy that he had worked so hard to maintain would change. Looking like this, Li Dong was naturally very anxious.
Song Mu nodded slightly when he heard Li Dong's urgent words, but he just spoke slowly.
"Your Highness, don't be anxious. I have heard about this matter for a long time. My lecture today is to solve this matter."
Li Dong raised his eyebrows immediately after hearing this, and looked at Song Mu and asked quickly.
"Master, is there any way?"
Song Mu nodded slightly and just stepped forward. Li Dong was unwilling to give up and quickly followed.
After turning two corridors, Li Dong saw a person standing in front of him. It was Qin Gang. He quickly stepped forward and offered his hands. Qin Gang looked at Song Mu and said.
"Jing Zhao, are you going to stand up for me today?"
Li Dong paused, but asked Qin Gang in confusion.
"Master, have you told me your plans for today?"
Qin Gang stroked his beard at this moment, nodded, looked at Song Mu again and said.
"Jing Zhao already told me about this matter last night, but I am a little curious about the means involved."
As they said this, both of them looked at Song Mu, who smiled and said calmly this time.
"You two, please don't look at me like this. My method today is not very clever. I just want to use Lord Qin's help to attract others."
"What kind of method is that? Can these students really beat and scold them?"
Li Dong murmured something, and Song Mu smiled faintly.
"It's not as extreme as His Highness said. I doubt the past and refute the present. I have also been one of these people. It's just that Song doesn't like to be aggressive."
"Let's go together and we'll get rid of this difficulty today."
With that said, the three of them immediately walked through the academy and came to a spacious place.
This was originally the academy's martial arts training ground, but now it has been temporarily developed into a lecture ground for students from all over the world to attend classes.
At this moment, the place was already crowded with people, and there were students in robes sitting on the ground everywhere. When they saw Song Mu and others coming towards this direction, they also stood up one after another.
When they saw Song Mu and Qin Gang walking in front, with Li Dong following behind, everyone's expressions changed somewhat.
"Master."
Thousands of people gathered at this event, and they all spoke with a sense of grandeur.
I think that when Kong Zhongni taught three thousand disciples, it was just like what it is today.
Song Mu immediately walked in with a smile. The lectures at Xuanyuan Academy did not fix a topic in advance. The teacher always sat down and talked impromptu.
"Cheating Kangxi"
At that moment, Song Mu also walked onto the simple stage in the center of the lecture hall, looking at the crowd and saying.
"All of you talented people have been waiting for a long time. Please take a seat. Today, Song is honored to answer everyone's questions."
When everyone heard this, many students looked a little excited, but at this moment, some of them looked at each other, and they didn't know what they were thinking.
At this time, Song Mu had already sat down with Qin Gang and others, and this time he spoke to everyone again.
"My topic today is a cliché. It's called studying. What do you think?"
The students around him were stunned when they heard this. Some people also came back to think about it and thought it was related to the lecture yesterday, but at the moment they just looked at Song Mu.
Song Mu smiled and said to everyone.
"The cultivation of Confucianism and Taoism is long, and you need to grasp thousands of truths in the world and integrate them into one's own knowledge before you can improve your realm. However, some things can be learned from books, but if you want to make the road of literature and Taoism smooth, you must have someone to guide you. .”
“And that’s what education is.”
"You come from all over the world and come here to listen to Mr. Song's lectures. You are also studying. You are all to be feared by future generations."
Song Mu said calmly, and everyone around him smiled. Song Mu's lecture tone with everyone was calm and without any pretense, which made people feel like spring breeze.
The next moment, Song Mu suddenly changed the subject. This time he looked at Qin Gang beside him and spoke.
"For today's lecture, I invited Master Qin. In fact, it was probably Song who was curious. The word "study" is more important than the road. I don't know what Master Qin was like at that time."
Everyone suddenly saw Song Mu asking like this. At this moment, they all looked towards Qin Gang. This time Qin Gang also nodded and said while stroking his beard.
"My path to study is a bit strange. When I was ten years old, I followed my father to study abroad..."
As a great scholar, Qin Gang's hundreds of years of cultivation experience are unquestionable, and what he is talking about now is about his studies at a young age. Going through mountains and rivers, experiencing all kinds of setbacks, and even walking from dark to dawn for a motto, everyone was a little moved.
After saying this, there was silence for a while, but Song Mu immediately stood up, raised his hands towards Qin Gang and said.
"It's so good. This way of studying is like being there, and it makes Song remember the past."
Saying this, Song Mu immediately talked about his own path to study, how he and Huangfu Fengming walked deep into the mountains in mango shoes, and traveled all over the mountains to explore the secret residence of scholars. In the snow, I visited the house several times to get a look at the book.
Amidst such remarks, a difficult scene also appeared in the minds of all the scholars, and they couldn't help but feel a little admiration at this moment.
After saying this, Song Mu also asked the scholars present to share their insights. At this moment, one of the blue-robed students stood up, raised his hands to Song Mu and said.
"What the Master said about studying is indeed touching, but I think the importance of studying is not the hardships on the journey, but the understanding of studying."
"It fails to enable students to understand new principles, but they can only say some ambiguous and repetitive things, and do some means of torturing people while claiming to have good intentions. This is really killing people's hearts and only cherishing the broom."
As soon as these words came out, many people in the audience looked at each other. Li Dong's face suddenly became gloomy. At that moment, some students stood up and shouted angrily.
"How can you be so presumptuous as to allow an arrogant person like you to speak nonsense in the lecture hall!"
