As soon as he entered the yard next door, Liu Heng was stunned by what he saw in front of him. Under a huge work shed, dozens of craftsmen could be seen busy.
"See your majesty! Long live your majesty!"
A clever guy suddenly recognized the emperor, and the craftsmen who were working hurriedly followed him and knelt down.
"Don't worry about me, you are busy with your business!"
Smelling the fragrance of ink in the air, the emperor waved his hand freely and curiously walked to the shelf nearby and looked at the books they had bound.
Although it was just a simple thread-bound book, the emperor was stunned after opening the contents.
"Why are you printing so many Han criminal laws?"
The emperor asked curiously.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, this is my little thought, but I was forced to do nothing. This generation of country is short of talents, and many officials are gray-haired, but they still have no way to step down. When I open the academy this time, I naturally have to first Come to a tower near the water and get the moon first..."
Liu Deng said it very naturally, without any embarrassment. After all, becoming an official is a good choice for the disciples of the academy.
"Then what are you going to teach them this time?"
The emperor blinked and then asked strangely.
"Master Dean, you see, this is the curriculum I have drawn up for them!"
As Liu Deng spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve. This was Liu Deng's preliminary course schedule.
"The college is still a start-up, so this is a little experiment by the minister. I would like to ask the dean to correct me!"
Liu Deng said with a playful smile.
"You skinny monkey!"
Maybe it was because of his age, and because Liu Deng was his grandson, the emperor was always a little more tolerant of him. The more he acted carelessly, the more kind the emperor felt.
"Mathematics? Criminal science? There are only these two compulsory subjects? But in liberal arts, you can complete one or more subjects at will. Why is this?"
Liu Heng asked, blinking his eyes.
"Back to Grandpa Huang, no matter what they do in the future, these math subjects and criminal laws must be learned. They don't need to be officials, but they must know the criminal laws of our Han Dynasty, what things can be done and what things cannot be done. It can be done, Sun’er thinks, the Han’s criminal law is the minimum standard for their behavior!”
After hearing what Liu Deng said, Liu Heng was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that this was really the case.
"What about mathematics?"
The emperor suddenly became interested in the courses arranged by Liu Deng and asked with interest.
"My grandson believes that mathematics is the foundation of all subjects. Whether they plan to stay in the academy to do research, enter officialdom, or go home to study on their own, this thing will be enough to benefit them throughout their lives!"
In this day and age, the theoretical foundation of mathematics is very weak, and Liu Deng is not prepared to ask them to complete any high school mathematics. He stays up late every night these days, rummaging through the elementary school mathematics textbooks that he has memorized in his mind. Point by point, write it in the most straightforward language.
I have been busy for more than ten days and have only written a thin booklet.
This is due to the fact that his brain is surprisingly useful after time travel, but even this thing, in this day and age, few people can understand it.
After all, the current method of counting is still at the level of calculation.
"Who do you plan to let teach them? I can't control Du Zhong's stubbornness, but you can control him?"
The emperor suddenly looked at Liu Deng with interest, and it seemed that he was preparing to see Liu Deng's joke.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, Mr. Du must be on his way to Jinyang now, maybe he will arrive in the next few days!"
Liu Deng suddenly laughed strangely. This was his proud work.
"Oh? If that's the case, I would like to stay here for a few more days!"
Liu Heng was stunned for a moment, then spoke.
And it seems that he is clearly prepared to see Liu Deng's jokes.
Seeing the emperor's gloating look, Liu Deng suddenly felt that this guy didn't look like an emperor at all. He was clearly the greasy uncle from his neighbor's house...
"Then what are your plans for liberal arts? Looking at you like this, you are planning to invite famous scholars to give lectures, but the theories of various schools are so contradictory. How do you ask those students to distinguish right from wrong?"
This is true. It seems that the emperor also worked hard on learning back then.
"My grandson thinks this is actually a good thing. As the saying goes, the famous experts come here to give lectures. On the one hand, they can explain their own opinions, and on the other hand, they can confirm each other's opinions. And the students of the college can be proficient in one subject. You can also learn from the strengths of others, so what’s there to worry about?”
In fact, to put it bluntly, Liu Deng is not very interested in various academic schools. He is a standard atheist.
As far as Liu Deng is concerned, whether it is Confucianism, Mohism, Taoism, Yin-Yangism, or any other theory, they are all from the same family. They all have merits and indeed shortcomings.
After all, people are different. Those who are flexible and energetic can learn a few more subjects to confirm each other. Those who are more dull can just specialize in one.
What Liu Deng needs now is just junior officials or pure academic researchers. As long as it is within a reasonable framework, no matter what theory they choose, Liu Deng actually doesn't care.
After all, he is not a simple scholar, and what he has learned is not actually any one at all, and he is not biased towards any theory.
As long as they do not violate the criminal laws of the Han Dynasty and do not directly criticize other doctrines, any scholar can teach and educate people in the academy. They can debate each other, but bottomless slander is never allowed.
After listening to Liu Deng's explanation of his opinions, Liu Heng suddenly felt that this college was a bit interesting, and maybe those famous people in the world would really take notice of it!
"But how are you going to choose this student?"
The emperor has also heard about the agreement between Liu Deng and Prince Liang. With Prince Liang's support, the teacher's problem should be solved for the time being, and the next thing to solve is the student's problem.
When famous people from all over the world come here to teach, countless scholars will inevitably be inspired by the news. Among these people, there is a mix of good and bad, and what they have learned is very complicated. It is not an easy task to eliminate the false and preserve the true!
"Well, because conditions are limited now, there is only one simple test for admission this time. As long as you complete it, you can enter. If you fail to complete it, you will have to wait until next time!"
Liu Deng was already prepared for this. After all, the current conditions were limited. The number of the first batch of students should be less than a thousand. Whether these people can graduate in the end depends on whether they can pass the graduation exam.
