The Dr. Yang Lin of the Imperial College who is teaching at Zhengyi Hall today is called "The Analects of Confucius: Xiangdang Chapter".
This is also the first lesson that every prison student who enters the Imperial College must learn.
As for why the Imperial College takes the Township Party Chapter as the first lesson, the reason is also very simple.
Most of these supervisors will become officials in the future, and there is a saying in China that one person has attained the Tao of chickens and dogs and ascended to heaven.
How to treat the township party is a very important lesson.
What the supervisors read aloud, translated into vernacular, can probably be understood as speaking to people when meeting people, and speaking to ghosts when meeting people.
The first lesson is to teach a person how to speak to the township party, the king, and his colleagues. I have to say that the Imperial College has really good intentions.
Chen Kan did not hesitate to think about the thoughts of these old masters with the worst possible intentions.
That is to say, what they want to cultivate is one, or a group of qualified bureaucrats.
"When you give food, you must taste it first at the banquet. If you give fishy food, you must cook it and recommend it. When you give life, you must livestock it. When you serve food to you, when you offer sacrifices, you must eat first..."
Chen Kan also shook his head and started reading along with the others.
Although he didn't quite understand why he had to shake his head while reading, when many people were doing the same thing together, it was best to be gregarious.
This is the truth he just realized after reading the Township Party Chapter.
On the first day of class, basically everyone followed the instructions step by step.
The old master who taught the class seemed to be only responsible for supervising their studies and had no other expressive intentions.
Even if someone is late or leaves early, they don't care.
In general, the educational environment at the Imperial College was appallingly relaxed.
In addition, the Imperial College is also in charge of food.
Chen Kan took out the food box he had prepared long ago and walked slowly towards the dining hall of the Imperial College.
"This brother, I am Li Tong, is from Yunnan. I wonder what I call you?"
A scholar in green shirt walked side by side with Chen Kan, holding an overly large rice bowl in his hand.
Chen Kan glanced at the rice bowl in his hand with some surprise, and recognized that this was the neighbor on his right, and responded: "I am Chen Kan, a person from Yingtian Mansion."
"It turns out to be Brother Chen."
Li Tong didn't show any pretense when he saw Chen Kan looking at his rice bowl.
He raised the rice bowl in his hand generously and explained with a smile: "My family is not rich. I have never known what it feels like to have a full stomach since I was a child. Now that I have gone through all kinds of hardships and finally come to the Imperial College, I naturally have to live in it." Belly is round.”
A question slowly emerged in Chen Kan's mind.
A person who has never had enough to eat since he was a child can still study and be recommended to the Imperial College by the local government?
However, when they met by chance, Chen Kan had no intention of getting to the bottom of it.
Just out of curiosity: "Is Yunnan very chaotic?"
A wry smile appeared on Li Tong's face, and he responded casually: "Those chieftains rebelled every three days. If it hadn't been for the Marquis who led an army to suppress them in Lin'an, Yunnan would have been uninhabitable."
Li Tong was a very talkative person. Chen Kan walked with him all the way to the dining hall. Li Tong told Chen Kan the situation in Yunnan like pouring beans through a bamboo tube.
By the way, it also explained clearly the reason why these scholars from Yunnan had not had enough to eat since childhood.
According to him, Yunnan is full of mountains and there is very little land available for farming, and most of it is occupied by local chieftains.
The Han people who migrated there during the Yuan Dynasty could only live a life of half farming and half hunting.
It was not until the Hongwu period that the Duke of Ying, Fu Youde, led King Muying of Guizhou, Puding, Marquis Chen Heng and others to pacify Yunnan and set up official schools in various places in Yunnan. Only then did they have the opportunity to study.
No land means no food.
According to Li Tong, not to mention ordinary people like them, even the soldiers stationed in Yunnan have daily rations that are 30% less than those in other places.
After listening to what Li Tong said, Chen Kan was a little stunned.
In later generations, he also traveled to Yunnan. In his image, Yunnan was a place where birds were singing and flowers were fragrant, it was like spring all year round, and there were countless beautiful mountains and rivers.
After arriving in the Ming Dynasty, Chen Kan also read a lot of files about Yunnan because Zhu Di kept urging him to hand over the plan to reform the land.
However, the files do not say that the life of the Han people in Yunnan is so difficult.
They have degenerated from a farming society to a hunting society.
this……
It sounds like there is no time to delay in changing the situation.
To Chen Kan, the food in the Imperial College was tasteless, but to Li Tong, it was supremely delicious.
Chen Kan witnessed him show off two large bowls of rice with his own eyes, and his face still had a look of unsatisfied satisfaction.
After washing the food box on the traction channel made of bamboo, Li Tong said: "Brother Chen, there is a poetry meeting at Suixing Hall in the afternoon, do you want to go and see it together?"
Chen Kan shook his head absently: "Brother Li, go on your own. I have other things to do in the afternoon."
Hearing that Chen Kan was not going, Li Tong handed over to Chen Kan and left for Suixingtang.
The Imperial College stipulates that no bathing is allowed on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month.
Except for holidays, if students studying in the Imperial College want to go out, they must first report to the direct lecturer and obtain permission from the Secretary before they can go out.
But for Chen Kan, rules are meant to be broken.
Can't get out of the door?
It doesn't matter!
Chen Kan can climb over the wall!
The walls of the Imperial College are not very tall, and judging from the oily and slippery marks on the glazed tiles, Chen Kan was not the first person to sneak out of the Imperial College.
Climbing over the wall is a common occurrence for Chen Kan, who has no shame.
But Chen Kan didn't expect that he would have to climb over the wall in later generations, and would have to climb over the wall in the Ming Dynasty.
It's a bit embarrassing for time travellers.
Zhang San has already erected a bamboo ladder outside the wall.
Then, Chen Kan stood on the top of the wall and jumped down.
If there are stairs, I will not walk, I will jump down.
Hey~ It’s just for fun!
Zhang San put the bamboo ladder into the grass aside with an expressionless expression.
Chen Kan stretched his body and asked, "Are you all ready?"
Zhang San nodded: "Master Shi has already led his people to the Arsenal Department and is waiting for your order."
"Okay, let's go!"
Zhang San brought over the horses, and the two mounted their horses and went straight to the Arsenal.
The Arsenal Department is an agency under the Ministry of War, responsible for the research and development, production, storage, and distribution of weapons.
It is basically impossible for Chen Kan to use conventional means to force Ru Yu to show up.
The Wucheng Military and Horse Division has not been able to reach out to the Sixth Division for the time being.
But if Ru Yu thought that Chen Kan could not do anything to him if he was hiding, then she would be underestimating Chen Kan.
Don't forget, Chen Kan has a backer, and his backer is the Tianguan of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the head of the hundred officials.
How could Fang Xiaoru be a good old man who could only do knowledge if he could secure that position?
In the morning, Fang Xiaoru just gave Chen Kan some casual advice, and Chen Kan thought of a way to break the situation.
You Rujun, just hide away, I will go directly to the Arsenal to play rogue, it depends on whether you are impatient or not.
If you're not in a hurry, I'll be serious about it. If you're in a hurry, that's exactly what I want.
