Chapter 22 Be brave after knowing your shame!

Zeng Xiaokuan returned, and Zhang Heng's career as a scholar also began.

The Taixue at this time was not the Taixue that would become later, and it was just getting started.

Prior to this, the Imperial College of the Song Dynasty was dominated by the Imperial College, but it had admitted too few students in recent years. The court felt that it still needed to train more civilian students, so under the advice of civil servants, it began to recruit students in the past two years.

In order for Taixue to develop greatly, it was only during the Qingli period that it began to recruit students on a large scale, eventually replacing the Imperial College and becoming the highest institution of higher education in the Song Dynasty.

Therefore, there are not many Taixue students now, and students are being recruited one after another. The addition of the Zhang brothers did not attract too much attention.

However, Taixue was more responsible in speaking directly. He gave the newly arrived Zhang family brothers a test, and then criticized them without mercy at all: "With your level, you are actually not qualified to enter Taixue.

I know you may be related, but since you are here, you should study hard. It doesn’t matter if your previous level was not good, but from now on, you should work hard to study hard and not get some bad habits!"

The Zhang family brothers, especially Zhang Jun, are particularly embarrassed. Although he has persisted in studying these years, he still has to manage internal and external affairs, and after all, he still cannot focus all his energy on it. Therefore, although he is the oldest, his level is still the highest.

lowest.

Zhang Shu's level is slightly better, but life has been difficult these years. Although his elder brother Zhang Jun is supervising him, his mind is still not focused on it.

On the contrary, Zhang Heng, the youngest, has the highest level. This is due to Zhang Heng's memory. After time travel, he found that his brain is particularly easy to use. Using it to endorse can get twice the result with half the effort. In addition, he actually has rich experience and is young.

I am much older, and later generations are in an era of information explosion, so my understanding of the classics and meanings is also more profound.

The first thing that Teacher Zhijiao pays attention to is the recitation of the Four Books and Five Classics, and the second is the understanding of the meaning of the classics. These are things that all students of Taipei University must master, and these two items are Zhang Heng's strengths.

Therefore, after taking the exam, he was praised by the direct teacher: "Zhang Heng is qualified, but he has only mastered the basics. He must strive to improve. If he wants to stand out, he must work hard!"

In response to the criticism of Zhiguo, the Zhang brothers learned their shame and became brave, especially Zhang Yu, who worked particularly hard.

In fact, among the three brothers, Zhang Xun has the strongest desire to learn. Over the years, he has carried the family forward and tempered himself. Compared with Zhang Shu, he knows that studying is the most convenient road to heaven.

He didn't have this opportunity before, but now that he had the opportunity, he simply turned a deaf ear to what was going on outside the window and plunged headlong into studying. Except for going to class, he hid in the dormitory and studied hard, and even asked Zhang Heng to take care of meals.

Come back to eat.

In comparison, Zhang Shu is a little worse. Although it can be regarded as hard work, it is not to the level of desperate work.

As for Zhang Heng, he is a talented player. His memory is better than others, his understanding ability is high, and his layout is much higher than that of many people of this era, so his learning is relatively easy.

But this ease does not mean that he does not work hard, but that he is relaxed in specific tasks.

And outside of schoolwork, he is not relaxed.

He is reading a lot of extracurricular books voraciously, especially history books.

He was even trying to memorize historical records.

The reason why Zhang Heng worked hard on history books was because he knew very well that in his previous life, he was just a common man and did not engage in politics. If he wanted to make a difference in the officialdom in this life, the best way was to read history books.

It is said that there is nothing new under the sun. When you study various dynasties, you will find that most of the things around you have actually happened countless times in history. In the final analysis, there is nothing new.

Time is a very wonderful thing. When you are doing nothing, time seems to have solidified, making people feel like the days are like years. However, if you indulge in doing things, time flies so fast that you unknowingly feel tired.

spanned many years.

Zhang Heng only remembered that the heavy snow stopped, and then it was swept into a corner, and another heavy snow came. After the snow stopped, I don’t know how long, another heavy snow came, and the person who followed the heavy snow was Zeng Xiaokuan.

Compared with the last time he came, Zeng Xiaokuan was a little lighter, and complained to Zhang Heng: "This period of time has been really hard, to be honest, it's like going crazy. We have been assigned a lot of homework, and we can't keep busy, but finally

It’s over for the time being... Hey, Sanlang, we’ll have a rest tomorrow, Brother Zihua has organized a snow appreciation poetry party, let’s go together.”

Brother Zihua is Han Jiang. His father is a former prime minister, and he has organizational skills. He organizes many gatherings in the Imperial College.

Zhang Heng's eyes suddenly lit up. He had been looking forward to this for a while.

One is that he is really curious about the literati gatherings of this era and wants to see what is going on. The other is that he has a purpose, which is to make his three brothers famous.

Poetry clubs and the like may seem to be just a pastime during the supervisory period, but it is not that simple. In this era, reputation is capital, and famous scholars will receive more attention, which will be of great help to their future career.

Yes, if you can be appreciated by the big boss, it will be very convenient once you enter the officialdom in the future.

Zhang Heng agreed to Zeng Xiaokuan's invitation without thinking: "Okay, I have been working hard these days, and it's time to relax. Yes, can you take my eldest and second brothers with you?"

Zeng Xiaokuan scratched his head and felt a little embarrassed: "Brother Zihua organized this matter. I can't bring people there without permission. I still fought for your place."

Zhang Heng asked curiously: "Why, wouldn't the more people doing this kind of poetry, the better? Why do we need to assign quotas?"

Zeng Xiaokuan smiled and said: "That's logically true, but if I take you there you can sit down. If you are not invited, you can only join the crowd."

Hearing this, Zhang Heng smiled and said: "What's the harm? There's not much difference between sitting at a table and standing in the crowd. Let's go together. When the time comes, brother Xiaokuan can just sit in the table. My eldest and second brothers and I will be in the crowd, too.

You can enjoy the snow!"

Seeing Zhang Heng's open-mindedness, Zeng Xiaokuan smiled and said, "Okay, then I won't sit down at the table, so I will enjoy the snow with you. Anyway, I can't say anything with them."

Zhang Heng is incompetent.

Zeng Xiaokuan and Zhang Heng agreed on a time, chatted and then went back.

Zhang Heng went back and told Zhang Quzhangshu about the poetry meeting.

Zhang Jun nodded and said: "Second brother and third brother, you go ahead. I'll take advantage of Xiu Mu to go to Daxiangguo Temple to sell egg-filled cakes. We haven't been out in the stall for so long, I'm afraid the diners will forget us."

Zhang Shu smiled and said: "I'm not going either. I can't compose poetry, so I won't go to suffer the cold. It's better to sleep in at home. Mom, I'm really short of sleep during this time."

Having said this, he yawned again.
