Straight man of steel

Chapter 279
After taking down Tang Du and Kong Anguo, Zhang Yuan asked Sima Tan to resign.

Sima Tan said that he would let Sima Qian go to Du County with Kong Anguo after waiting for a few days for Kong Anguo to handle the affairs of Chang'an.

Zhang Yuan just smiled and didn't say much, but he was complaining about Kong Anguo in his heart.

People in Tangdu are alone with no worries, and they will leave Chang'an whenever they want to leave Chang'an. Kong Anguo has one less house than Tangdu, but he still has so many worries in his heart.

Zhang Yuan didn't know whether it was good or bad to invite Kong Anguo to go to Taixue, but it was not bad to let him go there and use it as a signboard.

Taixue Lingfu in Duxian Taixue.

It had been three days since Zhang Yuan returned from Chang'an City, and Sima Qian, the Tang capital of Kong Anguo, had all arrived.

For the time being, arrange them to live in the Taixue Lingfu, and Zhang Yuan and Wuqiu Shouwang began to worry about the admission of new students.

This is not as simple as enrolling in schools in later generations. The most important thing is that there is no one to help Zhang Yuan and King Wuqiu Shou.

The dozen or so teenagers brought by Zhang Yuan are still working for Meigao in the county government, so that the matter of registering and naturalizing the students has to be done by Wuqiu Shouwang, a thousand stone Tai Xuecheng, in person.

The five classics doctors and their teaching assistants didn't have any empathy at all, they were all watching the show there, and they didn't come to help Zhang Yuan and King Shou of Wuqiu with some work.

The first wave was the fiercest. Those who could arrive within three days were basically people from the surrounding areas of Chang’an. Many of them had lived in Chang’an for a long time, but the recommended places were still occupied by their own hometowns. .

In just three days, nearly 200 people entered the school, but the number of people became less and less, and in the future, they were all students recommended by other counties of the Han Dynasty.

Three days later, probably because Liu Che understood the hard work of Zhang Yuan and King Wuqiu Shou, a group of officials officially settled in Taixue.

There are a total of 58 people up and down, including Zhang Yuan and Wuqiu Shouwang, exactly 60 people.

And the people who came were very clear about what they had to do, which also saved Zhang Yuan a lot of trouble.

But what I have to say is that the government agencies of Dahan are too heavy and bloated. It is just a Taixue, with only more than 400 students, and the total number of teachers is only seven now. But 1000 people, just such 1000 people have to be matched with [-] officials.

Basically, everyone, except those who need to be on duty, works for an hour or two every day, and all the work of the day has been completed.

That day, Zhang Yuan was wandering around in Taixue, passing by the gate of the mansion of Doctor Wujing, and suddenly found a flag outside these mansions.

On it were the names of several institutes studying classics, and then the door was wide open. From time to time, there were students looking in from outside the door, but none of them dared to enter.

Zhang Yuan walked over to find a student and asked him.

"What's going on here?"

The students naturally recognized Zhang Yuan, so they immediately saluted and explained to Zhang Yuan.

"Reporting to the Imperial Academy Order, we intend to become disciples of several doctors, but the threshold for entry is quite high.

Take this Dr. Hu Wusheng as an example. To join his school, you must first have a good knowledge of "Spring and Autumn", and you must aspire to Gongyang.

Since we came to Taixue to study, we naturally have many puzzles. If we have already mastered "Spring and Autumn", why should we study under Dr. Hu Wusheng?

Furthermore, the Spring and Autumn Period is divided into the three major schools of Guliang, Gongyang, and Zuo, and there are even more complicated and small schools. If we don't understand the meaning of "Spring and Autumn", we enter Gongyang first. Isn't this too rational? "

Zhang Yuan's eyes lit up, this frankly is a talent.

"What's your name?"

The student lowered his head slightly, cupped his hands and said.

"The student's name is Yan Yi."

Zhang Yuan lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and asked Yan Yi.

"Would you like to worship under my door?"

Yan Yi was a little surprised. When they entered school, they had never heard that the Taixue Ling could accept students.

Zhang Yuan looked at Yan Yi who couldn't make up his mind for a while, and said with a smile.

"What's the matter, are you afraid that I, Zhang Yuan, will cheat you?"

What makes Yan Yi different from others is that he can keep a little calm all the time, even if Zhang Yuan is questioning him now.

"Students don't dare, but they don't know which sages and Confucians are the masters of the Taixue Ling?"

"Me? My teacher is called Chinese."

"Chinese? The students have never heard of it."

"My teacher has been living in seclusion in the mountains, it would be strange if you heard of it.

But you don't have to worry about not being able to learn anything with me. Since you have already entered Taixue, these are the only choices right now.

I, Zhang Yuan, feel stronger than those doctors. "

People at this time, worshiping a master is no different from recognizing a parent, and Zhang Yuan can understand it if he is more cautious.

Yan Yi thought about it for a long time, Zhang Yuan also waited here for a long time, finally Yan Yi's expression changed.

"Student Yan Yi pays a visit to the teacher."

With a plop, Yan Yi knelt down, kowtowed three times and bowed nine times to Zhang Yuan as a teacher.

This is also the first time for Zhang Yuan to be a teacher, always thinking not to be careless and mislead his disciples, so he lowered his body to help him up.

"Okay, from today onwards, you are my student, Zhang Yuan.

From then on, I will live in Taixue Lingfu, and you can read the books in the mansion and the collection of Tianlu Pavilion as you like. "

From the very beginning, Zhang Yuan didn't worry about teaching Yan Yi anything. There are so many books in Tianlu Pavilion, enough for Yan Yi to study for a lifetime.

"is teacher."

Zhang Yuan was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked Yan Yi to go back to pack his luggage, while he went back to the Taixueling Mansion to let people sit next to his yard, and cleared out a side courtyard for Yan Yi to live in.

The students who came to study did not bring many things, nothing more than some clothes and quilts, and some of them did not even have a roll of bamboo slips on them, but they came to Taixue to study, so everyone has no prejudice.

At noon, when Zhang Yuan brought Yan Yi to the hall to have dinner with the others, and introduced Yan Yi to everyone, Kong Anguo immediately stood up from his seat.

"Yan Yi, why did you come here?"

Seeing that Kong Anguo knew Yan Yi, Zhang Yuan was not surprised, it was only normal for everyone to be literati.

When Yan Yi saw Kong Anguo, he immediately walked over respectfully and bowed to Kong Anguo.

"Yan Yi has met my uncle. Just now I joined the Taixueling's school, and the teacher asked me to move to the Taixueling's mansion."

Zhang Yuan fainted as soon as he heard the word "Master Uncle". Could it be that Yan Yi still has a teacher?

"Mr. Kong, do you know me as a student?"

Zhang Yuan stepped forward and stood by Yan Yi's side, and Yan Yi immediately retreated to Zhang Yuan's side and stood behind him, his whole person was very orderly.

Kong Anguo asked Zhang Yuan for something, although he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he still said with a smile.

"It's not just acquaintance, Yan Yi is the post-rehabilitation Yanzi, I am a generation older than him, that's why he called me uncle."
