Father can be an enemy to the country

After the meal, the students returned to their dormitories.

"Let me go, I finally know why we are not allowed to discuss the good and evil of food. It is because they are self-aware." Deng Duo quickly took out a dried chicken and tore off a chicken leg to comfort his poor mouth.

"It makes sense." Even Huang Guan sighed: "There is basically no meat in my house, but this is the first time I have eaten such unpalatable food."

"No." Several other people also agreed. They all felt that being able to cook food like this requires skill.

"Brother Hong, you are really impressive." Hu Yan praised Lao Liu: "I thought you would not be able to eat it, but I didn't expect you to be better than us."

Zhu Zhen couldn't tell him that he tasted like his mother from the food in the cafeteria. He could only smile lightly and said: "I'm not picky about food."

After a while, Ma Junze came back and saw several people making tooth sacrifices again, and he was no longer in the mood to say a few words. He sighed and sat down to eat with them.

"You know how terrible the food in school is, right?" he asked with a wry smile.

"Yes." Everyone nodded and asked, "Does Song Jijiu also have the same food?"

"Yes." Ma Junze nodded.

"Can't he taste bad food?" Everyone asked in confusion: "Why not replace the cook?"

"Because he deliberately asked the cook to make the food unpalatable." Ma Junze explained: "Tomorrow you will know why..."

~~

At Mao o'clock on the next day, a thousand newly recruited students of Guozixue gathered in front of Dacheng Hall to participate in the ceremony of worshiping Confucius, presided over by Song Jijiu himself.

After the ceremony, Song Ne gave entrance instructions to the freshmen in front of Dacheng Hall:

"You, freshmen, are full of high hopes and entered Guozixue. But I'm sorry, this is definitely not a comfortable experience for you. If you feel comfortable somewhere, you must report it in time, and our hospital will make corrections immediately. "

The sentient beings at the bottom looked at each other, thinking to themselves that this was not a disease.

"Because you are either from a noble family, or you are an official, or at worst you are from a wealthy family who has passed down farming and education. You have been pampered since childhood and have not been able to endure the slightest hardship. If the teacher's requirements are slightly stricter, you will complain non-stop." He raised his voice and said:

"How can such a arrogant person endure the strict academic rules of Guozixue and study hard with concentration? How can he become a qualified official of the Ming Dynasty and devote himself to the court? Therefore, all the rules of Guozixue are for you uncomfortable.

"For example, yesterday's meal was unpalatable to many people. That's right. It's true that it tastes unpalatable. I said, 'The five colors make one blind, the five tones make one deaf, the five tastes make one's mouth refreshed, the pursuit of hunting makes one's heart go crazy, and the rare goods make one's travels difficult.' That's right. The sage is his belly and not his eyes, so he goes away from the other and takes this.'

"So all the students of Guozixue should demand themselves by thinking that the belly is not the purpose. Be quiet to cultivate your character, and be frugal to cultivate your virtue. You should not advocate luxury and glitz, or be greedy for food and beauty." Song Jijiu arched towards the palace. He cupped his hands and said earnestly:

"This is also the emperor's request for the Ming Dynasty officials. If you can't do this, just don't be an official. Otherwise, it will harm yourself and your family."

The students in the audience were confused, but Lao Liu heard clearly that Song Ne's almost perverted request was actually for the good of the students... but I'm afraid not many people would appreciate it.

"In the next four years, our academy will use the strictest standards to hone you. Those who are weak-willed, greedy for enjoyment, stupid, lazy, and self-righteous will all be kicked out of Guozixue! Only by passing the many tests Only those who are tested, strong-willed, happy with poverty, sensitive and eager to learn, and follow the rules will successfully graduate and become officials of the imperial court!"

The expressions of the people below the rank gradually became serious, and they had obviously realized that entering Guozixue was only the first step. If they wanted to embark on an official career, they had to pass the test of Song Jijiu in front of them. Otherwise, you will not be able to graduate and everything will be in vain...

~~

After Song Ne's lecture, the new students were brought back to their respective classes by teaching assistants for entrance education.

Lao Liu also returned to Class A of Zhengyi Hall with Huang Guan, Tie Xuan, Hu Yan, and Yang Shiqi, and listened to Assistant Professor Hou explain the establishment and rules of Guozixue.

Assistant Professor Hou said that Guozixue mainly consists of four halls and six lecture halls.

The "Four Halls" are the administrative and teaching management departments, including the Shengqi Hall, the Doctoral Hall, the Dianbook Hall and the Classics Hall.

In the words of later generations, the Shengke Hall is the teaching office, the Doctoral Hall is the academic affairs office, the Book Hall is the office, and the Classics Hall is the library.

The "six halls" are the classrooms where students attend classes, including Suixing Hall, Chengxin Hall, Chongzhi Hall, Xiudao Hall, Zhengyi Hall, and Guangye Hall. There are eleven rooms in each hall, a total of sixty-six rooms. There is one class in each room, that is, sixty-six classes.

Among them, Zhengyi Hall, Chongzhi Hall, and Guangye Hall, where Lao Liu and the others are located, are junior classes with a semester of one and a half years.

After passing the examination at the end of the study period, you will be promoted to Shudao Hall and Chengxin Hall, and the semester is also one and a half years.

After the study period is over and the examination is passed, you can be promoted to Suixingtang, which lasts for one year.

It can be seen that the higher the grade, the fewer the classes, because of the harsh elimination system adopted by Song Ne - only two-thirds of the lower-grade students can be promoted to the middle grade, and the remaining one-third will either persist until the end and be expelled. Or get eliminated in the final exam.

After that, only half of the students could be promoted to the final Suixing Hall...

Entering Suixingtang does not mean that you can sit back and relax. In the final year, you must implement a points system. You must accumulate eight points within one year to graduate, otherwise you will have to repeat the grade. If you repeat a year and still fail, you will be eliminated.

"You think you are eliminated because you pack up and go home to reunite with your wife and children?" Assistant Professor Hou sneered: "That's wrong, the court cannot support you in vain. All students who have been eliminated will be punished as officials."

"Ah?" The whole room was shocked, and some people couldn't help but ask: "Didn't you say that as long as you compensate the expenses of Guozixue, you can go home?"

"That was before." Assistant Professor Hou looked at them sympathetically and said, "This year there was a special edict saying that we, the students, should not be wasted if we cannot become officials, but we can still serve as officials. So the rules have been changed. ”

"Ah..." The students were all dumbfounded.

Only Lao Liu sighed secretly, "As expected of you, the king of energy saving who never wastes money..."

~~

After rounds of threats from the priests and teaching assistants, the students finally realized what a difficult and dangerous road lay ahead of them.

If you are kicked out of Guozixue, it will be more humiliating than being punished as an official, which will bring shame to your ancestors.

What to do now? I have no choice but to roll it up from the first day of school...

Even Zhu Zhen was affected and thought that he couldn't do it without using all his strength.

It wasn't until he left the teaching building and let the cold wind blow that he suddenly woke up. Damn it, I’m here to inspect the private server, not really to go to school.

He then breathed a long sigh of relief, as if he had woken up from a nightmare and found that he was just dreaming, and he felt very happy.

But on the other hand, there is indeed something to this Guozixue, and it is not as useless as I thought before.

Perhaps this was the real purpose of his father's visit to this place.
