Zhao Shuwen was very happy. His ultimate goal was not to send Yu Qian to study in Wanping County, but to let him enter the Imperial College as soon as possible.
Zhang Bozhi is a man who cherishes talents. When he finds that he cannot teach the smart Yu Qian, he will definitely recommend him to the Imperial College. It was just the song "Song of Lime" that made Yu Qian famous, and the Imperial College actually reached out to him.
Facing Ye Ling'er, Zhang Bozhi chose to give in: "Today, I let Yu Qian go, not because of the conditions and strength of the Imperial College, but because of the future considerations of this child Yu Qian. You can take him away. He and I have no teachers or students." fate."
Ye Ling'er bowed deeply and said, "Zhang Jiaoyu is a man of great integrity. I would like to thank you on behalf of the Imperial College."
Zhang Bozhi waved his hand, feeling a little lonely.
Ye Ling'er walked towards Yu Qian and said with a smile: "Yu Qian, because of your solid academic foundation and excellent results in the county school examination. After consultation with the Imperial Academy Jijiu, Si Ye, and the Dean of the Confucian Academy, we decided to demote talents according to the eclectic pattern. According to the idea, the Imperial College has decided to hire you as an exception. From now on, you will be a student of the Imperial College."
Yu Qian was a little confused and looked at Zhao Shuwen.
Didn't you come to Wanping County and take Zhang Jiaoyu as your teacher? Why did you suddenly join the Imperial Academy?
Imperial College!
It was the holy land of learning that I yearned for. The two enlightened gentlemen, Zhao Shuwen and Hu Kewei, both came from the Imperial College. They had endless admiration for the Imperial College and told many fascinating stories about the Imperial College.
I have made it my ambition to enter the Imperial Academy and learn the best knowledge so that one day I can be used by the imperial court. I originally thought that I would only be able to knock on the door of the Imperial College with my results after the imperial examination, which would be at least five or six years later.
Unexpectedly, he suddenly arrived at the gate of the Imperial College.
The situation changed so fast that Yu Qian was a little overwhelmed.
Zhao Shuwen informed Yu Qian of the Imperial College's considerations, Zhang Bozhi's appreciation of talents and letting go, etc. Yu Qian thought for a while, looked at Zhang Bozhi, and bowed solemnly.
Zhang Bozhi, Ye Linger and others were a little confused.
Yu Qian kowtowed to Zhang Bozhi and shouted: "Zhao Xun said that Zhang Jiaoyu is a broad-minded and highly respected gentleman. Although he cannot be my disciple today, he taught Yu Qian a lesson and he is also Yu Qian's teacher!"
Zhang Bozhi stepped forward and pulled Yu Qian up. He looked at the handsome young man in front of him and sighed, "How can I teach you a lesson?"
Yu Qian solemnly said: "Sir, I told Yu Qian that even if you don't want to do what you want, you can still bear the pain and give up your love for the sake of your disciple's future. Just like an official who works diligently, even though he is exhausted, he must shoulder the burden and move forward in order to govern the people. "
Zhang Bozhi glanced at Ye Ling'er, laughed and said, "I'll leave this child to you, and you will have a good life."
Ye Linger was a little troubled.
The biggest problem with geniuses is that they are too smart. People who are too smart are often very individualistic, difficult to manage, and difficult to teach. For example, Guo Jiale, this guy is too aloof and not liked by many professors, but he is a real genius if he can't stand others.
The Yu Qian in front of him was able to adapt to circumstances and draw parallels. He had an astonishing mind at such a young age, and there was no way he would be a monster again in the future.
That’s all.
The Imperial College is big enough to raise some monsters.
Zhang Bozhi looked deeply at Yu Qian and said, "Since you salute and call me sir, I have to give you a few words of advice."
Yu Qian nodded: "Sir, please speak."
Zhang Bozhi said seriously: "You are already famous now at a young age, but don't think too highly of yourself. There is a vast ocean of knowledge that you didn't know about in this world. Don't be arrogant and complacent. There is a saying that there is no limit to the sea of learning. When you are sailing against the current, you can only keep moving forward to avoid falling behind. If you stop moving forward and become complacent, you will be abandoned by this era of many changes and become a nameless and mediocre person."
Yu Qian saluted: "Disciple, I would like to be taught!"
Zhang Bozhi sent Yu Qian away with satisfaction, and was secretly sad when he watched Yu Qian's carriage disappear at the corner of the street.
On this day, countless people in Wanping County felt sorry.
Beijing, outside Zhengyangmen, Monument to the Martyrs Square.
Yu Qian walked into the square and looked at the huge stone monument on the square, a little lost in thought.
There is also a monument to the heroes and martyrs in Qiantang, but it is only three feet tall. However, the stone monument in front of you is really ridiculously high. It may be as high as ten feet. A person standing under this stone monument looks very small.
Ye Ling'er looked at the monument to the heroes and said in a deep voice: "The stability and peace that the Ming Dynasty has today are all due to the sacrifice of heroes and martyrs with their lives. The emperor mentioned it several times when he visited the Imperial College, and the people of the Ming Dynasty cannot forget the heroes and the students of the Imperial College. We should learn from the spirit of dedication of heroes, serve the country, the people, and the country, and use our bodies as candles to burn our bodies to illuminate the world!"
Yu Qian was in an excited mood, took incense, and saluted solemnly in front of the monument of heroes and martyrs: "Yu Qian, a graduate of the Imperial College, pays homage to all the heroes and martyrs!"
Ye Ling'er looked at Yu Qian's young but serious face and wondered what he was thinking at this moment.
After paying homage to the heroes, Ye Linger took Yu Qian to the Imperial College on Chengxian Street. Yu Qian finally became a "country bumpkin". Facing the majestic Imperial College, he was amazed again and again, and only had to say an uncivilized word to express his shock.
Compared with Wanping College's onlookers at Qian, the Imperial College was obviously not too troubled by Qian's arrival.
Those who can be transferred to the Imperial Academy in Beijing usually have some ability and excellent grades, and some are top talents. Who cares about a little genius Yu Qian? Do you know about free fall? Do you know the buoyancy formula? Do you know? The relationship between temperature and height. Did you know that blacksmithing not only needs to be hard itself, but also needs a catalyst...
Yu Qian became the youngest supervisor in the history of the Imperial College. When faced with a number of subject choices, Yu Qian carefully considered and finally chose the Business School, the Agriculture School, the Craftsman School, and the Military Academy.
Although Dong Lun persuaded Yu Qian to be greedy and just take two electives, after all, Yu Qian's foundation was not up to the level of the Imperial College and he needed to make up for his studies in the private school.
Yu Qian resolutely chose four majors, majoring in Confucianism and mathematics.
Being in business is for the sake of managing business.
Nowadays, business is developing very rapidly, but there are also many problems. It is difficult to manage without understanding business.
Studying agriculture is to revitalize the people.
High-yield crops are finally being produced on a large scale this year. In the next ten years, potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn, peanuts, etc. should be widely distributed in all suitable places.
Learn craftsmanship for the sake of technology.
Technology is necessary to solve many problems, especially the emergence of trains. I heard that the imperial court is promoting a large railway plan. If you don’t understand technology, it’s easy to suffer losses.
The purpose of studying soldiers is to meet the enemy.
Although there are no enemies around the Ming Dynasty now, the emperor advocates staying on guard and being prepared for danger in times of peace. How can he not practice the art of war?
Considering that someone needed to take Yu Qian with him, Li Zhigang simply arranged for Yu Qian to stay in Guo Jiale's room. This decision was unanimously opposed by Dong Lun, Ye Ling'er and others, including Zhou Chang, the dean of the Craftsman College.
Amid everyone's objections, Yu Qian nodded...
