Daqin: I was overheard by Zulong

Chapter 204 What is Hanyu Pinyin?

What is Chinese Pinyin?Ying Zheng didn't understand Zhao Yi's feelings at all, and didn't know what he was talking about.

But Yingzheng was very curious in his heart, because if he could really understand the Chinese pinyin as Zhao Yi said, he would be able to know how to read, then it would usher in earth-shaking changes for Daqin's education !

It's just that while Ying Zheng is curious, he is still full of doubts in his heart. Is the Chinese Pinyin that Zhao Yi said really so magical?Can he really do it so that everyone can adapt to this learning method?

[Chinese Pinyin, as the name suggests, is a combination of different initial consonants and finals, plus different tones, so that corresponding learning can be completed. 】

[It's just like the young master Jing asked about my name Yi, it's actually just the initial y plus the final i, and it's spelled out to be Yi, so it's not too simple to use Chinese pinyin to learn Chinese characters! 】

After Zhao Yi explained and pondered in his heart, he easily said his name clearly.

When Ying Zheng heard these contents, it was like thunder in the plains, making Ying Zheng unable to control himself.

Pinyin has such a miraculous effect. Just a few consonants and finals combined with tones can reveal the pronunciation of a word. If this pinyin can be popularized throughout the country, then the entire Qin Dynasty will...

Ying Zheng soon felt that something that Zhao Yi thought of casually would bring about earth-shaking changes in Daqin.

And Yingzheng is sure that once the masters of various schools of thought know the Chinese pinyin, they will definitely fall into madness.

Of course, Ying Zheng was not in a hurry to expose the Hanyu Pinyin. He needed to plan carefully. Even if this thing was used to teach his prince, it would be a very useful teaching method, and he didn't use it right away.

Because Ying Zheng knew that before he was absolutely sure, there was no need to expose many things, otherwise the loss would outweigh the gain.

Guozijian, Yingzheng came here after some careful preparations.

After entering the academy of the Imperial College, you can hear the sound of reading aloud inside, and you can hear the movement of the master and the master admonishing the students everywhere.

Guozijian is the highest institution in Daqin. It is used to teach the children of the royal family and educate and reserve national talents. It is no exaggeration to say that as long as you can get out of Guozijian, you can be an official and govern in Daqin.

And those who teach in Guozijian are all representatives of contemporary great Confucianism or schools of thought, such as Kong Jia and Shu Suntong.

Therefore, no student who came here to study dared not be serious, but for Ying Zheng, he would never come here when he was free.

After all, in the face of contemporary celebrities like Kong Jia and Shusun Tong, Ying Zheng didn't feel like an emperor in front of them many times, but more often he seemed to be their student, and was taught a lesson every now and then.

That is, the punctuation marks that Zhao Yi made last time showed off in front of Kong Jia and the others, but other than that, Ying Zheng couldn't please them in front of them.

But today, Yingzheng held the fetish of "Hanyu Pinyin" in his hand, and couldn't bear it anymore. He wanted to come and show off, so when Yingzheng appeared in front of everyone, everyone was stunned for a while, and then they thought about giving Yingzheng Government salute.

"It's really a coincidence that your majesty came here. I just said that I'm going to the imperial study to find your majesty. I didn't expect your majesty to come!"

Kong Jia's words surprised Ying Zheng. What's going on? Why is this old guy trying to cause trouble for him?
At this time, Shu Suntong explained: "Actually, it's not a big deal. It's about Young Master Jing. Today, I heard that Young Master Jing complained in front of His Majesty a few days ago, saying that it's hard for me to understand the professor, and that it's difficult for me to read..."

Hearing Shusun Tong's words, Ying Zheng immediately understood that the news about these old men was really well-informed. In just a few days, all the affairs in the palace had been reported to the Imperial College.

But Ying Zheng didn't intend to hide anything, nodded slowly and said: "It's true, it's just..."

Before Ying Zheng could finish speaking, Kong Jia laughed and interrupted Ying Zheng, "Unless you study hard and practice hard, you will find it more difficult. Forget about reading sage books afterwards."

"And if Young Master Jing can't even read the sages' books, how can he be able to help His Majesty!"

Kong Jia's words were considered polite, but what Shusun Tong said next made Ying Zheng unhappy.

"Your Majesty, I beg your pardon for your boldness. Young Master Jing Tian is dull, and he has no talent on the road of literacy. He has only learned one, or even can't learn any of the students who are with him on weekdays. .”

"So from this point of view, freezing three feet is not a one-day cold. Young Master Jing still needs to work harder than ordinary people on the road to literacy!"

Hearing Shusun Tong's words, Ying Zheng frowned suddenly. Even though he didn't like his son very much, he was his own son after all. What was Shusun Tong, he dared to say that his son was stupid.

What does this mean? To say that young master Jing Tian is dull, is that implying that he is also stupid, and even the entire royal family has been scolded by this rotten scholar, how can Ying Zheng bear it.

"Shusun Tong, what you said is a bit too much." Ying Zheng sneered, "The journey of literacy is the first step for students to enter school. It should be very easy to teach them!"

"But I see that most of the students who go out of the Imperial College are studying or reading in weird ways, which invisibly makes literacy extremely difficult. All of this is caused. As teachers, shouldn't you reflect on yourself?"

Shusun Tong's original purpose was to fight for himself because Young Master Jing said that their masters and professors were not good, but he did not expect such a big reaction from Ying Zheng.

Kong Jia originally thought that Shusun Tong's words about the son's fortune were not good, but when he heard Ying Zheng's words, the old Confucian scholar stopped doing it and immediately pointed the finger at Ying Zheng.

"Your Majesty, in this life, the method of teaching literacy handed down by the ancestors is all wrong?" Kong Jia flicked his sleeves suddenly, "It's ridiculous, how dare I ask Your Majesty, how to know how to read is the correct answer?"

Most of today's characters are seal characters, with many strokes and repetitions, and the pronunciation has always been passed down from generation to generation, and most of them were invented by Confucianism.

So in front of Kong Jia and Shusun Tong, Ying Zheng said that there was something wrong with their method of teaching literacy, which was equivalent to slapping the entire Confucianism in the face. How could they bear it?
