Imperial College.
Ye Ling'er was dressed in elegant robes, well-behaved, and entered the Confucian Academy as a gentleman.
The entire Imperial College was in a state of excitement, and many supervisors ran to the Confucian Academy, wanting to see the descendant of the legendary Yongjia School and see what kind of woman defeated Fang Xiaoru's Zhengxue Academy.
Li Zhigang, Hu Hui, Dong Lun, Gong Shuqiao, Wang Bin and other senior officials of the Imperial College personally supported Ye Ling'er. Li Zhigang faced the crowd of supervisors at the Confucian Academy and shouted loudly: "There is a line of learning, and those who are masters are teachers. Today, after Ye Shi, Ye Wendinggong, and the heroine Ye Ling'er entered the Imperial Academy as a doctor, I hope that all students will devote themselves to learning." "
All the supervisors agreed in unison.
Li Zhigang looked at Ye Ling'er. Ye Ling'er took two steps forward, smiled calmly, and said with a smile: "Li Jijiu was right just now. A person with knowledge is a master. Although I, Ye Ling'er, know a lot about family studies, I still There are many scholars who are ignorant, and I am willing to practice knowledge with all my colleagues in the Imperial College, be pragmatic and make progress, and live up to my time and the emperor's kindness and love." Z.br>
The brief words made all the supervisors burst into joy.
Hu Xi nodded slightly. This was not a simple woman. Her seemingly brief speech actually revealed three points of scheming:
First, Ye Ling'er knows a lot about family education, so you can come and learn.
Secondly, Ye Ling'er is not very proficient in other knowledge, so don't bully others.
Thirdly, the emperor invited me here, and I have a backing.
Although Li Zhigang, Hu Hu and others could not say they were resisting or opposing a female prostitute entering the Imperial Academy, they felt somewhat uncomfortable. Women should stay at home to care for their husbands and raise their children. What's more, you came to the capital just after you got married. It's a bit unethical and inconsistent with etiquette.
But Ye Ling'er didn't come uninvited, but was invited to the Imperial College personally by Zhu Yunwen.
Dong Lun stepped forward and said warmly: "Dr. Ye will teach the Yongjia School coursework. Since the supervisors are gathered together today, how about asking Dr. Ye to speak at will?"
Li Zhigang and Hu Xi were a little surprised. This guy Dong Lun is cheating. This is a welcome gift, but there is no speech arranged. After all, Ye Ling'er is new here and has no preparations. How can you embarrass others like this?
Dong Lun looked at Ye Linger and smiled peacefully.
The Imperial College is not a Wenzhou academy, but the top academy in the Ming Dynasty. It is responsible for cultivating and transporting officials for the imperial court. Without excellent knowledge, excellent adaptability, and strong ability to withstand pressure, there is no way to gain a foothold here.
Ye Ling'er had heard about Dong Lun a long time ago. The fact that he could succeed Fang Xiaoru in taking charge of the Confucian Academy showed that he had a solid foundation in Confucianism and excellent cultivation. It can be seen from his peaceful and non-hostile eyes that he does not care whether he is a man or a woman, but cares about whether he has real knowledge.
Dong Lun nodded.
There is no difference between men and women, they are just carriers of knowledge.
When it comes to learning, it doesn't matter whether you are a man or a woman, even if you are neither a man nor a woman, as long as you have real ability, the Imperial College will respect you equally.
Ye Ling'er did not panic. Instead, she faced the situation calmly and generously: "Dean Dong is a famous Confucian scholar. No matter what you say, you may not be able to escape the tricks of the class. But after the dean said something, Ye would dare to say a few words. If If there is anything inappropriate, please forgive me.”
Etiquette first and then teach.
Ye Ling'er was not afraid of the scene, walked two steps on the high platform, stood at the front of the center, and said seriously: "Today I will say the word "change". The sky and the earth are full and empty, changing according to the news of the times, hardness and softness push each other..."
Zhu Yunwen walked gently into the Confucian Academy, listened to Ye Ling'er's speech, nodded with satisfaction, and said to Jin Wang Zhu Jixi who was following him: "Change, among all things, the most eternal thing in this world is probably This change."
Listening carefully to Ye Ling'er's words, you can clearly feel that she began to prepare for "change" as soon as she arrived at the Imperial College. Through this speech, she set the tone for change in "Confucianism" and "Neo-Confucianism".
Zhu Jixi agreed very much with Zhu Yunwen's words. After listening to Ye Ling'er's speech, he even said bluntly: "Your Majesty, what this woman said is very popular. The most important thing in the Craftsman Academy is to change the word. Don't stick to the present and think of everything. The method is to dismantle all links and parts, then change them, continue to iterate, and keep changing..."
Zhu Yunwen turned his head and looked deeply at Zhu Jixi: "Changes are constant. Steam engines and craftsmanship have undergone thousands of changes, but they will never leave our sect. There is no need to worry. I am only worried that there will be too many people and I will lose all loyalty."
Zhu Jixing frowned slightly and looked at Zhu Yunwen in confusion. Looking at his eyes as deep as the abyss, he quickly said: "Loyalty exists in the backbone and soul of the world. How can it be changed?"
Zhu Yunwen stared at Zhu Jixi: "But the White Lotus cultists have changed countless people's hearts and made them willing to fight against the imperial court."
"this……"
Zhu Jixi didn't know how to answer.
Zhu Yunwen stared at the slightest change in Zhu Jixi's expression. Without saying anything, he looked at Ye Linger on the stage: "I heard that you have been very close to Cao Guogong's mansion recently. Why, Cao Guogong asked you for a steam engine?"
Zhu Jixi was a little frightened, wondering what the purpose of Zhu Yunwen's visit to the Imperial College today was. He said he was looking at Ye Ling'er, so why did he pull him over without noticing that he was busy?
Every conversation seemed to contain an elusive undertone.
Now, the emperor actually asked him about his affairs with Cao Guogong's mansion. When did his trivial matter need the emperor's attention?
Zhu Jixi couldn't figure out Zhu Yunwen's intention, so he responded cautiously: "Cao Guogong didn't dare to ask for a steam engine. Besides, steam engines are all fixed and numbered. Without the emperor's approval, who can leave? I had some exchanges with Li Fangying from Cao Guogong's mansion. No. To hide it from the emperor, Li Fangying has a deep understanding of the art of mechanism."
"Oh, Li Fangying also knows tricks?"
Zhu Yunwen was a little surprised.
Zhu Jixi relaxed a little and whispered: "Yes, Li Fangying said that when he had nothing to do in Fengyang Mansion, he would follow some craftsmen to make some mold toys. He also wants to come to the Imperial College to study, but the emperor seems to have not approved it?"
Seeing that Ye Ling'er had no big problem, Zhu Yunwen took Zhu Jixi out and said, "Li Fangying returned to the capital from Fengyang mainly to recuperate her body. How can I bear the heart to let him go to the Imperial Academy and suffer, waiting for his health to be recuperated for another half a year?" , it’s not too late to come to the Imperial College again.”
Zhu Jixi suddenly realized that this was the case.
It seems that the emperor is quite considerate of Li Fangying, even taking this little thing into consideration. I have to say that life in the Imperial College is really difficult. There are a lot of coursework here, and there is a lot of pressure on assessments. If you can't pass it, your grades will be too bad, which is a bit embarrassing.
What's even more annoying is that the Imperial College of Supervisors actually proposed to strengthen the physical fitness of the supervising students by getting up early and running three kilometers together every morning to warm up. These guys don't feel comfortable suffering the consequences themselves, so they insist on dragging everyone along to suffer the consequences.
Hu Xi was still reluctant to approve it, but Li Zhigang immediately approved it after returning from Peking. Thousands of people in the Imperial College had to get up early every morning to go for a run. They were sick and really needed to recover before they could come...
Zhu Yunwen asked: "How is Li Fangying's health lately?"
Seeing that Zhu Yunwen didn't say anything strange and just went about his daily routine, Zhu Jixi completely relaxed: "He recovered well, but he was drowsy. Twice, I went to him to ask for some drawings. It was already noon, but he fell asleep. I don’t want to get up, I’m still tired just thinking about it.”
Zhu Yunwen narrowed his eyes slightly.
Noon?
Although there is a lot of nightlife in this era, it is not uncommon for a rich kid who does not go out, go to restaurants, or visit brothels to sleep until noon.
I guess it was during this period that Li Fangying was a little busy at night, right?
Zhu Yunwen glanced at Zhu Jixi and said seriously: "You passed the examination of the Craftsman Academy at the end of last year. Gongshu Qiao reported your name to me. I hope you can join the ranks of steam engine improvement craftsmen."
"really?!"
Zhu Jixi was a little excited.
I thought I had failed the assessment again this time. No wonder I didn’t even publish my own results, and I didn’t even tell the public about my secrets.
Zhu Yunwen looked at the excited Zhu Jixi seriously: "Tell me, what is your goal, what do you want in the future?"
Zhu Jixi suppressed his smile and looked at Zhu Yunwen seriously: "Your Majesty, I enjoy creation. As a craftsman, it is a pleasure to create one achievement after another. I think the steam engine is a great invention.
The creation of steam engines, and because of its appearance, many things are changing. I am willing to create more and more practical tools around the steam engine. What I want in the future is to integrate the three characters Zhu Jixi into the era of steam engines! "
Zhu Yunwen looked at Zhu Jixi, and Zhu Jixi looked into Zhu Yunwen's eyes fearlessly.
"That's it?"
"But I hope so!"
"as you wish."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"
Zhu Yunwen withdrew his gaze, raised his hand and patted Zhu Jixi's shoulder: "Then just let go and do it, I will watch you."
Zhu Jixi looked at Zhu Yunwen walking away and felt a little clammy on his back.
After Zhu Yunwen left the Imperial Academy and returned to Wuying Hall, he asked Pang Huan and Tang Buping who were accompanying him, "What do you think?"
Tang Buping said uncertainly: "Judging from the words and deeds of the King of Jin today, he does not look like the ancient and modern kings, unless he is alert and good at disguise."
Pang Huan agreed with Tang Buping: "Analyzing a lot of information about King Jin, his behavior has been exposed. If he is really ancient and modern, he should not and would not have openly contacted Li Fangying several times to attract the attention of the security bureau."
Zhu Yunwen knocked on the table and thought silently.
Whether Zhu Jixi is ancient or modern is something that the Security Bureau has been investigating.
Judging from the information currently available, Li Fangying is most likely Yang Wushan, and there is only one vassal king who has had close contact with him, and that is Jin King Zhu Jixi!
Zhu Yunwen went to the Imperial Academy not to prove that Zhu Jixi was ancient and modern, but to prove that Zhu Jixi was not ancient and modern.
After some dialogue and observation, Zhu Yunwen was almost certain that Zhu Jixi was a cover thrown by Li Fangying. He wanted to use Zhu Jixi to hide his true ancient and modern identity, and he wanted to use Zhu Jixi to distract the attention of the Security Bureau. Perhaps, Li Fangying had sensed the approach and surveillance of the Security Bureau, and that's why Zhu Jixi entered Cao Guogong's mansion again and again!
"Interesting, really interesting."
Zhu Yunwen was a little eager to try.
