"I don't know much about this, but there is a teacher in the village who is responsible for teaching in the village. He must know. It's better for the old god to ask him."
Xu Tianhang thought for a moment, pointed to the middle of Xujiacun and replied.
"Daxuan, don't children under the age of twelve study for free? Why didn't you go to study?"
He Pingan asked curiously, if Xu Tianhang went to study, he must also know the contents of the book.
Since Emperor Longqing ascended the throne, under the instruction of He Ping'an, some reforms in Daxuan's systems were carried out. The biggest change is that each village will send a teacher to be responsible for teaching elementary school in that village.
At the same time, all children under the age of twelve will not be charged any money to go to school.
He saw that Xu Tianhang was only about eight or nine years old, so why didn't he go to school?
Could it be that the teachers here are unwilling to accept him, or that the elementary education system has not been fully implemented yet.
Hearing this, the light in Xu Tianhang's eyes dimmed, and he said slowly: "The old god doesn't know something, Daxuan's children under the age of twelve do not charge any money for studying.
"But after both my parents died, I had no source of income. I was struggling for three meals a day. I didn't even have enough to eat every day. I had no time to study at all."
Hearing Xu Tianhang's words, He Ping'an's eyes froze. He had tried his best to turn Daxuan, the ship that had deviated, back onto the right track, but in fact, there were still many things that were beyond his imagination.
In the past, it was basically difficult for poor children to study.
You can only take classes from a private school teacher, but this requires poor families to pay very expensive tuition fees.
Reading is mostly reserved for the rich.
Now, after the improvement of the system, most children in Daxuan can read free books.
But when He Pingan met Xu Tianhang, he knew that what he had done was not enough.
A situation like Xu Tianhang's may be an exception in this village, but when it comes to Daxuan as a whole, it is already a very large group.
And these are beyond what He Pingan can do.
"Lu Yong, time is running out, and it's time for Pindao to shoulder some of your burdens."
He Ping'an looked far away in the direction of the Hanlin Academy, where Lu Yong was writing furiously in a pile of history books.
After passing the Huiyuan exam, Emperor Jiaming passed away and Emperor Longqing came to the new dynasty. He passed the exam without any trouble and passed the exam, entered the Hanlin Academy, and became a Hanlin compiler with a rank of sixth grade.
Originally, He Ping'an had planned for him to become the emperor's minister to the new emperor Zhao Ning. In fact, he was Zhao Ning's teacher.
Who would have thought that if Zhao Ning died, Lu Yong would have nowhere to put his talents and knowledge to use.
Putting Lu Yong's matter aside for the time being, He Ping'an said to Xu Tianhang, who was sallow and thin, "Take me to the school in the village."
"yes!"
Xu Tianhang was so blessed that he seemed to know that the person in front of him, even if he was not an old god, was definitely someone who could change his life. Without any hesitation, he walked forward quickly.
At this time, I was pleasantly surprised to find that I was full of strength, my steps were light, and I was full of energy. It took me less than half a stick of incense to arrive in front of the school, which usually took a quarter of an hour.
Looking at the three inconspicuous mud-tile houses in front of him, with the word "school" written in the middle, Xu Tianhang's eyes were full of hope. Every time he passed by the village school and heard the loud reading inside, he always wanted to go in and listen. .
But every time I thought about this, I touched my withered belly, so I had to give up the idea and continue to work on filling my stomach.
"Come on, come in with me and have a look."
He Pingan glanced at Xu Tianhang with a smile, and then walked into the school first.
His consciousness had already locked onto the Confucian scholar in Tsing Yi who was preparing meals for him in the school.
As if he sensed someone coming, the Confucian scholar in Tsing Yi who was cooking hurriedly walked out of the back room. When he saw He Pingan, he was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xu Tianhang behind him, and couldn't help but ask with a smile: "You wild boy" , finally decided to study today?"
"You haven't eaten yet. I'm cooking. Let's eat some together later."
"By the way, what do you call this old man?"
The scholar in Tsing Yi said hello to Xu Tianhang, then looked at He Pingan and asked.
"I, He Yu, may I ask, are you the one who teaches in Xujiacun?"
He Ping'an asked with a strange expression.
In his opinion, this teacher who can tell humans and demons to love each other must be a person with evil intentions. He sympathizes with the demons and empathizes with the demons, and his heart can be punished.
Unexpectedly, when they met at this time, they found that this was not the case.
This person did not have any discrimination against Xu Tianhang, but was very enthusiastic and full of energy. Although Haoran's righteousness was weak, he seemed upright and bright, not like a traitor.
With He Ping'an's strength, it was obvious at a glance that neither the teacher nor the children in Xujia Village were lying.
This is strange.
That's why I asked before, maybe I found the wrong person.
While he was thinking about it, the Confucian scholar in green looked suspicious, but he still nodded and said: "I am just the one, what do you want to do with me?"
"In which year did you fail the examination?"
He Pingan asked.
Hearing this, the Confucian scholar in Tsing Yi showed a trace of confusion on his face, but he still replied politely: "I am Feng Changxu. He failed the examination in the second year of Longqing, so he came to Xujia Village as a teacher."
When deciding to send a teacher to each village, He Pingan had already anticipated that even if all the teachers from Daxuan's private schools were sent to the village, it would still be far from being able to fill the vacancy of teachers.
So, He Ping'an thought of a way to get the best of both worlds.
All the failed scholars of the Long Qing Dynasty could go to villages to serve as teachers after being certified by the Ministry of Rites.
These failed scholars, after one year of teaching, can continue to participate in the subsequent examinations, and they can be appropriately tilted in the examinations. The longer they serve as teachers, the more remote and difficult the place, and the intensity of the tilt will be greater. The bigger.
He Ping'an's suggestion was implemented in the second year of Longqing after intense discussions between the ministers of the DPRK and China and the credibility of it was confirmed.
This Feng Changxu can be regarded as the first group of people to eat crabs.
However, with the fall of Emperor Longqing, many teachers have begun to waver in their thinking as to whether the subsequent system will continue to be implemented.
He Pingan heard this, nodded, and continued to ask: "I heard just now that you seem to have some unique insights into the demon clan?"
"What do you mean, my father-in-law?"
When Feng Changxu heard this, a vigilant look flashed in his eyes, and he pulled Xu Tianhang behind him. A white light flashed slightly on his chest, and Haoran's righteousness had begun to circulate.
Seeing this, He Ping'an waved his hand lightly, and the white light on Feng Changxu's chest dimmed, and then he said with a half-smile, "Don't be nervous, little friend. I also have some unique insights into the demon clan. I just want to discuss it with you." One or two..."
Before he finished speaking, Feng Changxu pushed Xu Tianhang hard, and then shouted: "Wild boy, go and report to the official, there is a monster coming to take revenge..."
