Doing a good job in the Ministry of Education, well, is the job of the Imperial College. The first priority, of course, is to run the school first.
Taixue already exists, and it is under the jurisdiction of old man Taichang Gaojun. Naturally, there is no need to create a redundant one. However, Guozixue, four subjects, calligraphy, and arithmetic all need to be restarted.
.
It's okay to say that Guozixue mainly teaches Confucian classics. Even if you can't find a great Confucian, you can just find some old Confucian students from poor families who have no ambition to make up the numbers.
Calligraphy and arithmetic are roughly the same, but the four subjects, mainly Buddhism, Taoism, witchcraft, medicine and other miscellaneous subjects, are more troublesome. Not only is it difficult to find professional teachers, but the future of these subjects is unpredictable.
If they don't have unique preferences, ordinary people will naturally have little interest.
After thinking for a long time, Yuwen Xiaomagan'er finally found the head of old man Taichang Gaojun.
In response to Yuwen Xiao Ma Gan'er's request for help, old man Gao Jiong waved his hand very generously, and assigned more than twenty people from various departments under his command to serve as teachers for Yu Wen Xiao Ma Gan'er, and the categories were quite complete.
Later, Yuwen Xiao Ma Gan'er transferred Xu Deyan and Wei Zheng from Longmen Academy to serve as his deputies.
Xu Deyan, an old man, served as a fourth-grade Imperial College Doctor, equivalent to the director of training; Wei Zheng became a fifth-grade Imperial Doctor, overseeing teaching matters.
At this point, the structure of the Imperial College has been initially set up.
Next is the formulation of educational standards and the issue of enrollment in the Imperial College.
Because Yang Guang was too stingy, he wanted Yuwen Xiaomagan'er to pass the imperial examination, but he was also reluctant to spend money from his own pocket. Therefore, although the Imperial College had a national reputation, its funding was actually very small.
Even if Yu Wen is very careful with his budget, he can barely maintain a scale of about 200 people with that small amount of funds!
No matter how much it is, Yuwen Xiaomaganer will have to put in the money himself!
You know, this Imperial Academy is a government school, not as unruly as Longmen Academy, a voluntary school. Even if Yuwen Xiaoma Gan'er is rich and wants to put money in, he doesn't dare! By then, if Yang Guang has any other ideas,
But that’s not good!
In addition, the enrollment of the Imperial College is also a problem!
According to the old practices of Yang Jian's era, the Imperial College was a strict hierarchical aristocratic school!
The admission qualifications for Guozixue are those who are of the third rank or above and the descendants of the Duke, and the great-grandsons of the second rank or above!
The members of Imperial College are the descendants of the fifth-rank and above princes and county princes, and the great-grandsons of the third-rank.
Other Guangwen Schools, Four Gate Schools, Legal Studies, Calligraphy Schools, etc. also have their own grade requirements. The lowest level is Shuxue, and the enrollment targets are those below the eighth grade and the sons of common people.
Now that Yuwen Xiaomagan'er is in charge of the Imperial College, his original intention is to promote the imperial examination and give the poor families in the world a chance to get ahead. Naturally, he does not want to turn the Imperial College into such an aristocratic school.
However, due to financial constraints, the enrollment quota of the Imperial College is really limited, and the prospects of each subject are also different. If the enrollment and selection are truly open to the public, the worst thing is that the Imperial College will still be monopolized by aristocratic families.
After thinking about it again and again, Yuwen Xiaomagan'er decided to simply decide the candidates for admission through examinations.
However, in terms of specific admissions policies, Yuwen Xiaomagan'er still made a lot of tricks. For example, students applying for the Imperial College must be from a volunteer background.
Moreover, Yuwen Xiaomagan'er also made clear regulations on the concept of free education, that is, free enrollment for all Sui people, and more than half of the students come from civilian families. Only then can the school be called a free school.
!
The conspiracy had been going on for a long time, and little old man Xu Deyan and Wei Zheng were invited to discuss it over and over again for more than ten times. Yuwen Xiaomaganer finally came up with a complete teaching system...
Feeling that everything was ready, Yuwen Xiaomagan'er teamed up with Longmen Academy and Taixue to conduct another large-scale Imperial College entrance examination!
Just when Yuwen Xiaoma'er's side was busy and prosperous, over there, Xu Guogong Yuwenshu encountered another troublesome matter that seemed to be neither big nor small, and the core of the matter was
It's a matter of money!
Yu Wenhuaji and Yuwen Shiji were almost killed when something happened, and Yuwen Xiaoma'er, the most famous member of the Yuwen family, was also demoted from a powerful general to an idle civilian position of a mere commander. So, there are those who are interested.
I began to think that Yuwen Mansion had begun to decline, so I thought, even if I didn't add insult to injury, I could add some trouble to the old man Yuwenshu and stroke his beard twice!
The first one to jump out and rub Yuwenshu's beard was none other than Yuwenshu's younger brother and sister-in-law, Duke Tan of the Sui Dynasty and General You Xiaowei, Li Hun.
Li Hun's father, named Li Mu, was a founding hero in Yang Jian's era. He was named Duke of Yin and Grand Master by Yang Jian, ranking among the three Dukes. He had 9,000 fiefs and 3,000 real households. It can be said that he was famous for his time.
.
Although they are all at the level of nobles and princes, there are still substantial differences between them!
If Li Mu was a big landowner, by comparison, princes like Yang Su and Yu Wenshu could only be regarded as middle peasants at best, not even rich peasants!
Li Mu was very productive and had ten sons, Li Hun was the youngest.
Therefore, when Li Mu died, Li Hun did not inherit his father's title and fief.
Since Li Mu's eldest son Li Dun died earlier than Li Mu, Li Mu's largest inheritance fell on Li Dun's son and Li Mu's eldest grandson, Li Jun.
Li Hun was deeply dissatisfied with this, so he secretly encouraged one of his elder brothers' sons, Li Shanheng, to kill Li Jun secretly!
But even if Li Jun dies, with so many descendants of Li Mu, no matter how he calculates it, this inheritance seems to not fall on Li Hun, the youngest son of Li Mu!
Fortunately, Li Hun married a good wife, who was Yu Wenshu's only sister.
At that time, the old man Yuwenshu's holy family was prosperous, so Li Hun, through his uncle's relationship, took away Li Mu's inheritance from the mouths of his tiger and wolf brothers and nephews.
Of course, old man Yuwenshu's efforts were not in vain. According to the prior agreement, Li Hun had to give half of the tax revenue from the fiefdom to his uncle Yuwenshu as a reward every year.
This is a feudal town of nine thousand households! Moreover, there are as many as three thousand households in it!
Even after the discount, it was still nearly half higher than the income from old Yuwenshu's own fiefdom of Xu Guogong!
Therefore, whenever it was time to collect rent, old man Yu Wenshu was very happy, while Li Hun's heart was bleeding!
Now seeing that Yuwenshu's family seemed to be in decline, and he felt that it was time to become a serf and start singing, Li Hun decisively took away all the land rent he had collected, without giving Yuwenshu a single fortune.
At first, Yu Wenshu didn't notice anything unusual, thinking that his cheap brother-in-law had something he needed urgently, so he would obediently bring him a small amount of money if he moved away in two days.
Who would have thought that Yu Wenshu had waited until the Chinese New Year was approaching and he didn’t see a single big boy!
During this period, old man Yu Wenshu tactfully mentioned this matter to his brother-in-law several times, but Li Hun pretended to be deaf and dumb and was fooled by him all the time!
"Shuzi! The person who dares to defraud me of money has not yet been born! Er'an dares to snatch food from my mouth? I will make you pay the price with your blood! Let you know why the flowers are so red!"
Of course, this was what the old man Yu Wenshu was thinking in his heart, but he did not say it out loud.
But in fact, old man Yuwenshu is indeed actively planning how to deal with this cheap brother-in-law who dares to stroke his beard, pull out his tiger teeth, and steal food from his tiger's mouth!
After enduring it for a long time, Yu Wenshu finally found an excellent opportunity and launched a killer plan against his brother-in-law Li Hun!
