"Do you know, Yan Guoru?" Yu Jihan did not answer, but asked rhetorically.

Yu Jihan took a sip of tea and looked at Li Silang while asking questions.

"Of course I know that if Prince Dan hadn't sent Jing Ke to assassinate the King of Qin, the Yan Kingdom might not have been destroyed." Li Silang nodded and said with a sigh: "The wind is rustling and the water is cold, and a strong man will never come back.

.”

Yu Jihan nodded and continued to ask: "That was only the Yan Kingdom during the Warring States Period. Do you know other Yan Kingdoms?"

"Yan country, Yan country? There is also Yan country, let the students think about it." Li Silang was deep in thought while drinking tea.

Yu Jihan did not disturb him, but watched Li Silang's every move with great interest while drinking tea.

He wanted to see if the scholar whom the naturalized Hu people wanted to study as a disciple was worthy of being his teacher in this school.

Li Silang was still thinking and had no idea that Yu Jihan wanted to test him.

Suddenly Li Silang tapped the coffee table: "Didn't the State of Yan be established during the Five Husty Periods of China?"

"You finally remembered, how many Yan countries are there?" Yu Jihan did not let him go and continued to ask.

Li Silang did not expect that Yu Jihan was so familiar with history and continued to fall into thinking.

He bowed his hands in a salute and finally gave the answer: "I reported to Master Yu that the Murong family established a total of five Yan kingdoms, namely Qian Yan, Hou Yan, Nan Yan, Bei Yan, and Xi Yan."

"What else? Murong's." Yu Jihan tapped the table gently and continued to ask.

Li Silang had already racked his brains and came up with five Yan countries, but he did not expect that there would be another Yan country.

Thinking of this, he shook his head and said he didn't know.

Yu Jihan pointed to the northwest and said lightly: "Tuyuhun."

"What, Tuyuhun, but Tuyuhun is not the country of Yan." Li Silang was shocked.

Yu Jihan looked at him lightly and said softly: "I am talking about the Murong family, not the Yan country."

"Students admire him, students admire him. Mr. Yu is very knowledgeable and has a profound knowledge of history. The students are ashamed of themselves." Li Silang bowed his hands and said with sincere admiration.

"How can I be so profound with this little bit of common sense?" Yu Jihan shook his head and couldn't help but sigh, "The former Yan Kingdom, Tuguhun, has been wiped out. The Murong family also stayed in Gusu and other places, enjoying the blessings of the Song Dynasty.

Is there any difference between my behavior and that of the Han people?"

After saying that, Yu Jihan looked at Jia Li and Li Silang.

Jia Li nodded, took over the conversation, looked at Li Silang and asked: "The Murong family is also a Hu people, and these naturalized Han people are also Hu people. Since the Murong family can be completely Hanized, why can't these naturalized people be completely Han Chinese?"

Chinese?"

Li Silang finally understood that Yu Jihan had been talking to the Murong family and Yan Guo for a long time, but still returned to the sinicization of the Hu people.

"I'm telling you, the two officials, that these naturalized Han people are too old. How can students educate them?" Although Li Silang understood what the two officials meant, he still felt a little resistant in his heart and found another reason to refuse.

"They are indeed older." Yu Jihan did not deny it, but asked, "There is no distinction between education and distinction. Have you ever heard of it?"

"Confucius said this, of course the students have heard of it." Li Silang bowed his hands and bowed, "I tell the two officials that the students were only six years old when they were enlightened, while these naturalized people are already almost twenty."

Yu Jihan nodded and did not deny that these naturalized people were older.

He took a sip of tea and asked calmly: "If three people are walking together, there must be my teacher. Who said this?"

"I tell Master Yu that this is Confucius." If you don't know this, how different is he from an illiterate person?

Yu Jihan nodded and talked eloquently: "Confucius said this at an advanced age, and he can still continue to study. These naturalized people are not very old, so why can't they educate them?"

"Students can be taught." Li Silang had no choice but to admit with a nod, and at the same time he bowed his hand and pointed out the difficulty, "These naturalized people are old, and it will be difficult to educate the students. After all, they basically don't have much foundation."

Yu Jixian took out a book from the bookshelf behind him, patted the dust on it, and handed it to Li Silang.

Li Silang respectfully took it with both hands. He couldn't help but be startled. He raised his head and asked: "The Three Character Classic? An enlightenment book?"

Although "The Three Character Classic" came out not long ago, it has become popular all over the world and has become a must-read enlightenment book for children.

In fact, not only children know it, but even some illiterate adults also know its contents.

For example, Mao Qingsheng, the owner of Maoge Restaurant.

Although he didn't know many words, he also knew the two sentences "In the beginning, human nature is good", and he regarded these two sentences as guidelines for life.

He believes that he can succeed because he firmly believes that "human beings are inherently good in nature" and that is why he is where he is today.

"That's right, please open the "Three Character Classic" and take a look." Yu Jihan drank tea quietly while talking lightly.

Li Silang was actually impressed by Yu Jihan's profound knowledge, and he couldn't help but open the "Three Character Classic" after hearing this.

Li Silang opened it and saw that he had never come across this before: "Tadpole text?"

He couldn't help being surprised. He looked carefully and looked up at Yu Jihan. He didn't understand his intention and his eyes were full of doubts.

"This is Pinyin. It has the same meaning as Qie Yin, but it is far more useful than Qie Yin." Yu Jihan especially praised Tadpole Wen, "With this sharp tool for literacy, the speed is more than ten times faster than Qie Yin."

"It's so fast," Li Silang was stunned, but soon frowned, "But the students don't know tadpole literature."

"How old are you? Are you a civil servant?" Yu Jihan did not answer his question, but asked him how old he was.

Li Silang had already been obedient to Yu Jihan, bowed his hands and replied respectfully: "The student has just passed the exam for the first time, and now he wants to prepare for the second exam."

"At this young age, he is not much older than my grandson." Yu Jihan looked at his face and couldn't help but sigh, "So young."

After speaking, he looked at Jia Li, who nodded.

Both of them were over fifty, and seeing Li Silang's youth, they couldn't help but envy him.

"Master Yu is getting stronger and stronger, and his knowledge is beyond the reach of students." Hearing Yu Jihan sigh that he was very old, he felt a little sad and hurriedly expressed his position.

After all, Yu Jihan was the chief clerk, he was well-educated, and he soon got over his sadness.

Yu Jihan looked at Li Silang and said calmly: "I am sixty years old and can still learn this tadpole essay. You are so young, can't you learn it?"

After saying that, Yu Jihan looked at Li Silang with bright eyes.

"Lao Yu is highly respected. He is able to master tadpole literature at such an advanced age, which is beyond the reach of students. The students are ashamed, the students are ashamed." Li Silang just said that he did not know tadpole literature, but he did not expect that Yu Jihan, who could already become an ancestor, had already learned it.

Tadpole Wen, his face turned red and he felt extremely ashamed.

Yu Jihan nodded, looked at Li Silang, and continued to ask in a deep voice: "Do you think those naturalized people can learn the Three Character Classic and Tadpole Writing?"

"Yu Lao can learn it. Those naturalized people are almost the same as students, so of course they can learn it." Li Silang nodded, admitting this, and then changed his tone, "But students don't know how to write tadpole essays."

When he said this, he smiled bitterly and looked embarrassed.

Jia Li heard this with great interest, and his eyes kept turning between Yu Jihan and Li Silang.

He saw Yu Jihan looking at Li Silang with a kind look on his face, as if an ancestor looked at his grandson.

Jia Li suddenly had a flash of inspiration and scolded Li Silang in a deep voice: "Why don't you kneel down to our ancestors."

"Ancestor, but the student's ancestor has passed away, how can there be an ancestor?" Li Silang was suddenly filled with grief, his eyes were red, and he couldn't help wiping his tears.

"Although your ancestor is no longer alive, there is someone who can be your ancestor." Jia Li felt that Li Silang was indeed a nerd and did not know how to take advantage of such a great opportunity.

Li Silang's eyes were also looking between Yu Jihan and Jia Li, and suddenly his eyes flashed.

When he came to Yu Jihan, he suddenly knelt down and said: "My ancestor, please accept my grandson's worship."

After saying that, regardless of whether Yu Jihan wanted it or not, he knelt three times and bowed nine times.

"Good boy." Yu Jixuan nodded and waited for Li Silang to finish kowtowing, then stepped forward to hold him up and said, "From now on, I will teach you the Tadpole Essay in the Three Character Classic."

Li Silang couldn't help but be overjoyed. Yu Jihan not only had strength and background, but was also knowledgeable, more than his ancestor.

"Grandfather, my grandson has a small request, is it okay?" Li Silang felt guilty, but he had to make it.

The two became grandparents, and their relationship suddenly felt much closer.

Yu Jihan stroked his beard and asked kindly: "Silang, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly."

"Is it possible to advance the salary of the night school and let the grandson go back to report the good news to his family?" Li Silang blushed and said embarrassedly.

It seems that this godson's family background is indeed not very good, otherwise he would never say this.

Yu Jihan nodded, smiled and took out a delivery card from his sleeve: "Zuweng doesn't have anything, it's a little greeting gift, Silang can take it out and buy some pens, ink, paper and inkstones."

"Ten Guan pick-up cards?" Li Silang took it and looked at it, and couldn't help but be stunned. This is too many.

A ten-guan pick-up card is equivalent to about twenty taels of silver, and if converted into a huizi, it will be at least a hundred guan.

This was almost equivalent to his wife's half-year income, and she couldn't help but look at Yu Jihan with doubt.

Yu Jixian smiled slightly: "I still have some shares in the two workshops. The money is pure and pure. Silang can use it without worry."

Li Silang kowtowed respectfully and kowtowed three times before putting it into his sleeves.

Yu Jihan almost treated him as his grandson, which made Li Silang deeply moved.

When Li Silang went back this time, the elder man and his aunt both screamed with joy, because each of them had not only one candied haws in their hands, but a bunch of candied haws.

Looking at her bunch of candied haws, Mrs. Li Hu was not only not happy, but could not help but frown: "Did the official go to a gambling house? He actually won so much money?"

"No, I recognized an ancestor from my husband, and he gave me Shiguan's delivery card." Li Silang confessed honestly.

Li Hu was even more uneasy, staring at Li Silang, as if full of anger: "Official, although our family is a bit poor, we must be poor enough to be ambitious. Isn't it said in the book? A gentleman is not allowed to eat what comes. The slave's family is in the workshop.

I get almost three copper coins a month to go to work. Why should I accept the food that comes my way?"
