Learning this kind of thing cannot be done by force.

I have never heard this sentence from any teacher. Since Zheng Mengzhou, the last famous minister of the previous dynasty, praised Neo-Confucianism, which began the history of Neo-Confucianism becoming the major sect of Confucianism in the country, all the kings, clans, and teachers of the past dynasties

They are all Neo-Confucianists, and among the principles these people preach all day long, they are probably always able to do whatever they want by studying hard.

No one has ever said that after studying hard, you will get nothing. As for women, Councilor Li Cao kept saying that those noble ladies from Korea could speak Ming Dynasty Mandarin and were well-educated. The tiger listened calmly on his face, but actually he sneered in his heart.

Literary and sensible? Are you talking nonsense with your eyes open! He doesn’t know what happened to the Ming Dynasty, but in Goryeo, even among the top two classes of nobles, more than half of the women in the family are illiterate, just like his grandmother Ci Sheng

Queen, I can probably understand some Chinese characters, but it is beyond my ability to understand those difficult articles. That is to say, his mother can be truly knowledgeable.

As for the Mandarin dialect of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty had repeatedly requested it. When he sent canonized envoys and other envoys, he would also question the officials about their Mandarin dialect, so it was a must for nobles and nobles.

But no matter whether they are truly knowledgeable or have no talent, in front of outsiders, whether they are men or women, they must insist that they are studious and willing to learn. Teachers also tirelessly teach the importance of learning. How can they be like this?

Zhang Shou acted like he wanted to learn but didn't want to learn. It seemed that the teacher was very reluctant.

Thinking of this, Zheshan Jun smiled bitterly in his heart. Of course he was very unwilling to do so. That was the teacher of the current prince, the emperor of the future, and he was just the king of a small country. How could anyone care about being his teacher?

, can it be said that it is more glorious than Donggong Master?

Having said that, when he saw Councilor Li Cao beside him, he was so anxious that he was winking at him desperately, but there was no other small move. Knowing that he was worried that he would succeed the king in the future, but wanted him to accept it, he immediately gave up.

Those daydreams lowered their heads respectfully: "Xueshi Zhang, you are serious. Having someone as knowledgeable and talented as you teach me is something I can only dream of."

Having said this, he paused for a moment, and then said cautiously: "It's just that if you teach me, I don't know where His Royal Highness the Prince of Ciqing Palace is..."

"I don't go to Ciqing Palace to give lectures and readings every day." Zhang Shou laughed nonchalantly, and then said lightly, "I only go to give lectures and readings for half a day every two or three days. But you, Tiger King, I

It’s also impossible for me to talk to you all day long about the big principles that you don’t like to hear. So, I take the time to talk to you for an hour every day, and that’s enough.”

"By the way, I'm very busy, and the students at the public school cannot be left behind, so I will tell the emperor to ask you to take a few more steps to attend the lectures at the public school. Of course, while you are still recovering from your illness, I will

Come here and give lectures.”

Councilor Li Cao wished he could quickly tell the tiger that it was no big deal to go to the public school. The road from Huitong South Hall to the Outer City was already very short, and it could also relieve the feeling of being under house arrest in Huitong South Hall all day long.

Qu. And under his eager gaze, the tiger finally took the opportunity to express his willingness to go to the public school.

However, the next moment, Counselor Li Cao discovered that he was really happy too early. Because Zheshanjun suddenly changed his words and said: "Teacher, I was sent to the capital of the Ming Dynasty by the late king to study at the Imperial College. Now,

If I study with the teacher, will the Imperial College be affected by this..."

Although he was hesitant to speak after that, how could Zhang Shou not understand? He smiled slightly and then said lightly: "If you are willing to go to the Imperial College to study, that would be the best. I can tell you.

emperor."

"No, no, no, I misunderstood. It's all my fault. Please forgive me, teacher."

Only then did Zheshanjun realize that his pettiness was in the wrong place. He quickly denied it and then sincerely apologized. He thought that Zhang Shou would give him a few words of criticism and then talk about other things. Unexpectedly, Zhang Shou did not continue at all.

Regarding this topic, he said calmly: "Okay, it's getting late. If you are still in good spirits, let's start class."

Zhe Shanjun and Counselor Li Cao were all stunned on the spot. No one expected that Zhang Shou's first class would come so quickly and so unprepared. He didn't even bring a book, let alone let them

Prepare books, pen and paper.

The two of them had no time to object, so they just listened to Zhang Shou's order to bring a chair over. They originally thought that Zhang Shou was ordering them, but just as Councilor Li Cao was about to find a chair, there was a movement outside, followed closely by a face.

The normally calm young man brought in a grand master's chair. Without even looking at him or Zhe Shanjun, he directly placed the grand master's chair in front of the bed and asked Zhang Shou to sit here.

Zhang Shou left Jin Dun, who was unable to lean on his front, back, left or right, and sat up comfortably, nodded with satisfaction, and then said slowly: "You said before that I am knowledgeable and talented, but that was an exaggeration. What about me?

, I only studied arithmetic with Teacher Ge for a while, and then studied Confucian classics and history on my own for a while. Compared with those masters of Neo-Confucianism and Confucianism, my knowledge is actually far insufficient."

"My only advantage is probably that I am young and my lectures are eclectic and unconventional. So Mr. Zheshan, you don't have to worry about what obscure things I will teach you, and you don't have to worry about what I will ask you. After all, we

The relationship between teacher and student should not last long, and I don’t intend to be an unpleasant and strict teacher.”

"Today's first lesson, let's talk about the most famous protons in history."

Counselor Li Cao's face twitched hard twice, and he felt that his forehead was covered with sweat, and his back vest was also sweating crazily. However, he did not dare to wipe it off, but he was desperately thinking in his heart whether the Ming Dynasty was real.

The tiger is not prepared to be released - and in that case, who will be in charge of the court? Will he cause a series of turmoils like the kings of the late Goryeo Dynasty?

Although this decision seems to have been made by the King and Concubine, the King and Concubine have not interfered in the government affairs in the past. It must have been made by the courtiers behind the King and Concubine, the courtiers of the King's faction, and a lot of people who compromised with each other.

As a result, he tried hard to find out if there was anyone who could be comparable to Tiger Tiger, and after going through it all in his mind, he finally felt relieved.

There shouldn't be... No, there just isn't!

Just like this, when Councilor Li Cao came back to his senses and began to listen carefully to what Zhang Shou said, he had already missed a lot. Zhang Shou had already talked about Qin Zhuangxiang from the Empress Dowager Xuan and King Qin Zhaoxiang who were both hostages.

Prince Chu, then talked about his son Ying Zheng, who was born when King Qin Zhaoxiang was a hostage, and finally Prince Dan of Yan.

Zhang Shou's way of telling stories directly without comment gradually calmed down the uneasiness in Zheshanjun's heart. Many North Korean ministers had studied and learned about the behemoths dominating the east, but children of his age could not hear it.

All I heard were just rumors, and it was impossible to learn much about the history of other countries.

The historical materials of Silla and even Wang's Goryeo compiled by this dynasty, including the history of the founding years of this dynasty, are enough for any clan to be dazzled. Therefore, he temporarily forgot his own situation and listened to

Zhang Shou talked eloquently, starting from the mutual exchanges in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States, to the servants in the Han Dynasty, and then the exchanges in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties... Of course, the retention of the Yuan Dynasty is indispensable.

Thinking about the Wang family, almost all the kings of Goryeo were sent to Dadu, but in the Ming Dynasty, they only entered the Imperial Academy. The Ming court actually did not restrict what everyone learned or anything else, so even the uncle who was ordered to return to the country could return to the throne, and Zheshanjun was

Sighed.

Speaking of which, the founding of our country was nearly thirty years later than the Ming Dynasty, but this kind of abdication has already happened three times.

Of course, the Ming Dynasty was even more exaggerated. From Yingzong to Ruizong, every time they fought for the throne, they were killed in rivers of blood. But compared to those officials in the Ming Dynasty who are at least submissive now, the current emperor, as a young emperor, has been able to reign safely for twenty-seven years. But

In his country, his grandfather had been in power for many years and had been purged again and again, but he still had to be wary of all kinds of rebellions and rebellions.

Can he learn some lessons from the stories Zhang Shou told?

How old is Zheshanjun? How could Zhang Shou not notice the changes in his expression even if he tried his best to hide it? Chen Yongshou sent a message and said that if it really didn't work, just let him know the benefits, but he didn't think a

A child who grew up in a place where palace struggles were the most complicated would not understand the so-called pros and cons, so he simply told people about history selectively.

But when he had finished telling the stories about protons in the past dynasties, he changed his subject and talked about the favor order of the Han Dynasty.

From the extension of the favor order, he continued to the continuation of traditions in the past dynasties such as the division of property among the sons, the inheritance of the legitimate sons and so on, and then began to comment on the intermarriage in ancient Silla that would be criticized by the defenders in terms of etiquette and law. What kind of uncle marries his niece?

, aunt marrying nephew, and finally talking about the imprisonment of concubines... Anyway, everything he had seen at a glance from miscellaneous information was now at his fingertips.

How rich are modern people? How broad is their knowledge? Most importantly, how capable are they of talking nonsense?

This is definitely not something that the ancients could have imagined, let alone someone who lives in a remote place and is still too young. Even Councilor Li Cao who was accompanying him was stunned and dumbfounded, let alone

A child?

Coupled with the aura of the Master of the East Palace above Zhang Shou, he was born with a radiant charm... the bewitching effect, the two people who may become the emperor and his minister in the future, there is simply no room for interjection. However, when Zhang Shou said

When it came to the civil and military examinations in North Korea where only legitimate sons could take part, and concubines could only take miscellaneous subjects, Councilor Li Cao was unconvinced and wanted to defend himself.

However, his explanation that the descendants of a noble breed are still noble breeds, and that the descendants of untouchables should be untouchables, is not comparable to the princes and generals like Zhang Shou who have a noble breed, so they need to be plucked out of the lowly grass.

knowledge?

He casually cited the famous ministers from humble origins since the Tang and Song dynasties, as well as the prime ministers who were born as concubines, and then broke apart their methods of confinement of concubines. When it comes to class confinement, passages are blocked, and the people are ignorant...

Anyway, after hitting the terms that few people mentioned these days, Zhang Shou saw that the two people in front of him looked very ugly.

No matter who it is, how can it be tolerated when the domestic system is so criticized? Counselor Li Cao was tossing around and could only try to use the word "ceremony" to stabilize the situation, but he didn't want Zhang Shou to slap him back with a few words.

"Throughout the history, China's famous Neo-Confucian scholars have taken concubines and maids, but I have never heard of anyone treating a person like a cow or a horse after giving birth to a bastard. It's just that your king who set this rule is worried about Liangban

The number will be too great in the future, and inherited from generation to generation, there will not be enough positions in the court, not enough wealth in the world, and not enough privileges."

"In contrast, Emperor Taizu of our dynasty established the principle of downgrading hereditary meritorious officials. Without downgrading, they can only maintain the principle of three generations. We should promote both civil and military affairs, select talents and use them, and select talents among the people. Only in this way can the world be prosperous and stable.

, until now.”

"You submitted the name of the country many years ago. Why has the court not allowed the change of Goryeo to Joseon? It's very simple. The so-called Wang family and Li family are just the same blood, so why change the name of the country? Separate the civil and military lines, and use culture to control military force.

, even if the founding king of your country relied on mutiny, in the end he still used the Song Dynasty's tactics."

"But what happened to the Song Dynasty, which admired this the most? The humiliation of Jingkang and the Yashan Incident were claimed to be the richest in all dynasties, but in the end they were doubtful soldiers and generals. However, in the late Song Dynasty, some people who fought against the Mongols were impassioned, fought bloody battles, and finally surrendered.

There were generals who still received high positions and generous salaries, there were generals who fought bloody battles to the end and died for their country, and there were even prime ministers and soldiers and civilians who bravely crossed the sea after a cliff."

"But if you look at Wang's Korea, the emphasis on literature over military affairs has reached the point where it is almost impossible to save. There are civil servants who have died for the country. Are there any military generals who have died for the country? How many are there? In the last years, I heard that there were military generals who served the country and disrupted the government!"

"Your ancestor relied on military power to conquer the country of Goryeo, but today, how many soldiers are there in the country to fight?"

"During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the country of Goguryeo could withstand the overwhelming army of the Celestial Empire. Nowadays, Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla have been known as the three Koreas that have been united into one country for a long time. Why is it far less than it was back then?"

Zheshanjun's face turned pale, especially when he heard Zhang Shou's last words, he thought that he had heard that the Wang family's ancestors of Goryeo once had an ancestral precept not to learn the Central Plains system, but Guangzong failed because of wealthy families and local forces.

It was too strong and had to take back power and reorganize the system. After that, although it was boosted for a while, it still declined step by step.

And I have always been worried about the status of vassals. Is it true that a small country like theirs cannot learn from the Central Plains system? Should it really put its military first?

But this Academician Zhang just read between the lines and derogated the Taizu system again... Emperor Taizu failed to implement many of the strategies at that time because of compromise. Will he try to implement them in the future?

Councilor Li Cao, on the other hand, was confused by Zhang Shou's ramblings. He even thought that the Ming Dynasty was planning to raise troops to fight from Liaodong, or that it was sending naval forces to raid by sea...

When Zhang Shou's completely unorthodox class ended and he took Ah Liu, who had been standing next to him like a pile of stakes, out, Hua Qi came up to him with a subtle expression on his face: "What do you want?"
