Chapter 444: The thorns in the academy The two talked a lot, but neither of them talked about Jiangnan anymore. Ji Song had some things that he couldn't talk about for the time being, and Mr. Baishan didn't want to talk anymore.
It wasn't until it was getting late that Mr. Baishan said goodbye and left.
Ji Song came to the academy this time because he was kicked out by his mother-in-law. What else could he say: What's the matter with old men who don't do anything and spend all day around their children?
So, with Ji's mother watching coldly and with the encouragement of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, Ji Song left home miserably while his two precious children cried!
When you're not at home, you keep saying you don't care about her all day long. If you stay at home for a long time, you'll get bored. Woman!
As the old master said, if you are close, you will be inferior; if you are far, you will be resentful. It is unreasonable. The bell of the academy rang in the early morning, and the quiet academy seemed to have just woken up, exuding vitality everywhere, making people feel full of strength.
Ji Song was up early and went up to the top of Taibai Mountain before dawn to practice the Guidance Technique in the dew.
He has basically been doing this over the years. There has been no breakthrough since the Daoyin Technique entered a bottleneck. Now he is practicing facing the rising sun, and he has formed a habit over the years!
In addition, there was no entertainment in ancient times. I went to bed very early at night and woke up before dawn in the morning. Anyway, I was idle, so I just passed the time.
After practicing martial arts for a while, he stretched out his body and bones. Now there is no developed medical system in later generations. If you are not in good health, a fever can kill you. He doesn't want to die young.
In recent years, he has basically never had a cold or cough. He never gets sick, and he is as strong as an ox.
What he had been practicing in his spare time now brought him a lot of benefits.
He has always been curious about who owns this guidance technique, but his research for many years has yielded no results. He only knows that it was passed down from his ancestors from the pre-Qin period, and there is no record of it.
I only know that it has the effect of strengthening the body, but I don’t know anything else! Shake your head and don't think about it. You don't have a clue anyway.
After going down the mountain alone, I was going to go to the cafeteria to have something to eat.
The cafeteria of the academy has been highly praised by the teachers and students of the academy during this period. It is full of all kinds of delicious snacks. As long as you have enough points, you can eat a lot of things you have never eaten before.
Even if you ask the chef to cook it specially for you, as long as you can pay enough points.
That's right, Ji Song took the set from Sinong Temple to the academy.
Monthly quizzes and usual performance will count towards points, but they are difficult to obtain.
In each quiz, No. 1 is worth three points, No. 3 is worth two points, and No. [-] is worth one point.
Only the top three will be selected each time. If the others want to gain points, they can only do what they can to help the academy.
For example, cleaning, going to the construction site to help craftsmen do calculations, and doing this for five days to get one point.
Don't underestimate this point. A meal with ten dishes and one soup by a chef from the canteen only costs five points.
This table of food is at Chang'an Restaurant, but it requires more than [-] yuan to eat. It also requires a reservation. If the chef schedules the reservation six months later, it may not be possible to make the reservation.
Not only can you eat this meal, you can also bring your family to eat it, as long as you notify the college in advance.
This makes many students from poor families work hard to provide a meal for their families. They even neglect their studies for this matter, just to show their filial piety to their parents.
It wasn't until Li Gang came out to stop the academy's wine ceremony that the students' madness was stopped.
The final rule is that there is only one day per month to accumulate points.
This disappointed everyone, but Li Gang was right. Everyone focused on their studies. If they waste time on this, their families would not be happy even if they knew about it.
It is better to study hard and accumulate enough points by the time you graduate. When you are successful in your studies, you can invite your family over and it will be a double eating a portion of steamed buns, rice porridge and pickles, he came to the classroom with his books.
He came here this time to teach. This was the task given to him by Li Gang. He taught mathematics and studying objects, which were also his strengths.
Although he is a good scholar of history, he is just an apprentice compared to the old gentleman who has been sleeping with him for decades.
In order not to mislead others, we can only teach them what they are good at.
This is what Ji Songxia wants. His original purpose is to study things. This is the purpose of his visit to the academy. With the addition of other scholars in various fields, after a few years, it will definitely be a different scene!
The students he taught were specially selected by Li Gang, and they were either descendants of noble families or the royal family. Of course, there were also some students who were thorny or had other specialties.
When Ji Song found out, he almost ran away. Was he treating his place as a garbage collection station? How could he not know the virtues of these people?
All of them are lawless lords, and it is not easy to subjugate these people.
But the other gentlemen in the academy were all old gentlemen, and they would have been driven crazy.
No, Ji Song, a weirdo among the nobles, is still half a member of the royal family. There is absolutely no problem in leaving these people to him.
Other gentlemen were afraid of being resented if they were beaten, but Ji Song was different. As long as he was not beaten to death or maimed, it would be no big deal. He might be beaten again by his family after returning home.
Such a weirdo is in the academy, who can use him if he is not needed?
So, Li Gang clapped his hands and decided, and the other gentlemen also breathed a sigh of relief.
Ji Song didn't know why Li Shimin was so crazy that he actually sent his sons over, including King Li Tai of Wei, King Li Ke of Wu, and the little bastard Li Min in the palace. But he was still young and would wait a few years before coming.
Cheng Chusi, Yuchi Baolin, Zhang De, etc. from the Xungui family were all students who had studied in Ji's school before, and they were also admitted this time.
They already have the foundation and can pass the academy examination with ease.
Li Tai was favored by Li Shimin in the palace, and he was considered the best among the princes. Being with these people was a bit despising, and he was alone in the front row in a daze.
When he thought that his father was going to send him to the academy, no matter how much he asked, he had to be sent. Even his mother, who always responded to his requests, was unmoved.
"Do you know who the teacher is?"
Li Ke and Li Tai got together again. As brothers and with equal status, they sat together.
"I don't know. No matter who it is, as long as they fail my test, they will go back and forth. I will not serve them..." Li Tai said proudly.
Li Ke was speechless. He was quite stable, but his younger brother was different. He was a concubine and his legitimate son. In addition, his mother was a princess of the previous dynasty and was not favored by Li Shimin.
Over time, he developed a taciturn temperament.
During this period, no fewer than ten gentlemen were driven away by Li Tai.
No matter whether it is a Confucian scholar or someone who teaches arithmetic, no one has taught it for ten days.
Originally, some gentlemen thought that those who were closer to the water would benefit first, and establishing good relations with the princes would be beneficial to themselves and their descendants.
But after getting to know these people, I gave up this idea.
