Neighboring school old enemy bows to me

After the New Year’s Eve, the Guozijian started school again. The atmosphere of this time is obviously different from the previous ones. The main reason is that the students in the senior hall still have three or four months to go. The tense atmosphere of racing against time is quietly brewing in the Guozijian. You can see it everywhere you go. To the figure of the senior's endorsement.

He Zhiyang's classmates this year couldn't help but feel drums in their hearts.

After all, after two years, they will be the ones who will take the exam, and during these two years, they will also face various exams, but many of them are in the middle or at the bottom, and they are often scolded or even beaten by the secretary in the monthly exam.During the imperial examination, outstanding students from all over the country gathered in the capital. As a student of the Imperial College, if they failed in Sun Shan, they would be ridiculed even more.

Thinking about it this way, it seems that it is not as wanton and free and easy as before.

In addition to the change in the atmosphere, there is also a foreign language class specifically for the Western Regions, Ryukyu and other places in the school, and it recruits foreign students in the early autumn of this year.

These foreign personnel have been in close contact with the Ming Dynasty recently, and have built many post stations at the border for trade and personnel exchanges. Unfortunately, the language barrier, in order to deepen the relationship, these affiliated congresses sent outstanding noble children to the Ming Dynasty to learn Chinese culture. , After finishing his studies, he will be sent back to China as a gift.

The Guozijian will also offer corresponding language courses, so that future court officials can master the basic etiquette and communication with foreign guests.

These teenagers were all in their teens, and when they heard that there was a new Ph. D. to teach them the language used by foreign guests, they all talked about it with great interest.

"Have you read the new textbooks we have distributed? Those barbarians who usually speak are written like ghostly symbols. They are uneven and straight..."

"Can this really be learned? A language. Others learn it from novels. Can we learn it? I have heard them speak, but I can't understand them at all. If I can really learn it, or even communicate with them, that would be too much." There's a lineup."

"Yes, yes, it is too difficult, but it is said that many officials of Honglu Temple would say that..."

While discussing, the master of the foreign language class has come in, cleared his voice, and started to brainwash today: "Students, you should know that the imperial court pays special attention to contacts with foreign courts, and in the Ming Dynasty, the Imperial College was the only one eligible to recruit students. As a place for foreign students, you also know that the Ryukyu Academy in the back hall is specially prepared for students from Ryukyu. To welcome new students, the academy will naturally select a few teaching assistants from among you to help foreign students integrate into the capital as soon as possible. Any of you can sign up for the teaching assistant exam, don't underestimate these teaching assistants, they may be selected into Honglu Temple in the future..."

Everyone started whispering, and many people stood up and handed over their hands to sign up and introduce themselves, to show that they want to take the teaching assistant exam.

This is not to blame for their urgency.

For the students of Guozijian, the safest and common way out is naturally to obtain a ranking through the imperial examination, so as to occupy a place in the imperial court.

But this road of thousands of troops crossing the single-plank bridge is very difficult, and those who are not top-notch will definitely have to find a way around the camp.

The ancient Guozijian also had special students. For example, some supervisors were outstanding in mathematics, and they could be exempted from the exam to work in Qintianjian. If they had outstanding language talents, they could also serve as assistants to serve as official positions in the Ryukyu Academy, and even manage ethnic minorities and overseas regions. The Honglu Temple in Honglu Temple is leisurely and dignified.

The key is!You don't need the midnight lights to bite the bullet and endorse the imperial examination!

Simply envious of others!

The master said casually, but there were so many people who signed up. The new master had to wave his hands and smiled and said: "I understand your thoughts, sit down first, and I will teach first." The first class is mainly for enlightenment. Daconian said a few greetings from the Western Regions, and gestured for the boy to have a simple conversation with him.

The students of the Imperial College had never been exposed to any foreign language on weekdays, so they were naturally stunned in their seats when they heard this weird pronunciation.

He Zhiyang sat in the back row of the classroom. Seeing that the place was getting cold, he said a few words of thanks and greetings from the Western Regions to deal with this new teacher.

The master looked at the young man who spoke fluent Western Region dialect in the back row of the classroom, and asked doubtfully, "Do you know what the sentences I said mean?"

He hasn't taught the class yet, even if someone has heard a few words of Western Region dialect on weekdays, it is logically difficult for them to repeat them completely.

"This is an auspicious greeting for New Year's Eve." He Zhiyang said, "It's similar to what we say every year is auspicious."

The master raised his eyes and wondered, "How did you know?"

He Zhiyang said: "During the New Year's Eve, I happened to buy lanterns at the stalls of people from the Western Regions, and chatted with them occasionally."

The doctoral master who was teaching the class immediately took a few more glances at He Zhiyang. Before he came to the class, he had roughly understood the situation of the Imperial College with many divisions. Troubleshooter, as long as he doesn't cause trouble in his classroom, he can be regarded as his ancestor's high incense.

But looking at it now, this young man is extremely talented. No matter who listens to a few words of Western Region dialect, he is in the dark, but he can speak it accurately, with standard pronunciation and a clear understanding of the meaning. In all fairness, it is extremely rare.

The classmates were also dumbfounded. They were used to the classics and history collections since elementary school, and they all knew the routines and meanings of the classics and history collections. On weekdays, if they recited aloud, they would not admire them from the bottom of their hearts even though they thought they were great. After the string of rap words came out, everyone looked back in shock.

Did you pronounce Yangge just now?I haven't heard clearly yet, that string of complex sentences has already rolled by my ears like spring thunder, and I'm too good at talking!

He Zhiyang has already looked away, amused in his heart.

He ignored his master's repeated praises, and he didn't raise his eyes to meet the envious eyes of his classmates, as if the matter was not worth mentioning.

The more He Zhiyang was like this, the more this new master and classmates couldn't figure it out.

Next, when the master was in class, he couldn't help but enthusiastically asked about the content of He Zhiyang's class.

He Zhiyang had no choice but to stand up and answer. Western Region dialect was mysterious and difficult to learn, but He Zhiyang was able to speak it accurately after listening to it once, as if by a god!And those curly tones are clearer and more pleasant after being uttered by his juvenile voice, even more attractive than the master's hard practice for several months!

At the end of the one-hour class, the master even believed that He Zhiyang was a rare foreign language talent. If he entered Honglu Temple, he would definitely be able to contribute to the imperial court's career in the Western Regions, Ryukyu, Jiaozhi and other dependent countries!

He Zhiyang looked at his classmates' eyes from doubt to amazement to admiration, secretly amused.

In his previous life, he started learning English at the age of five or six, and his curly tongue has flowed into his veins, so he speaks it as easily and naturally as his mother tongue.

In addition, he lived abroad in his teens, met people of different nationalities, and roughly speaking three or four small languages. Of course, he can understand new languages ​​much faster than ordinary people.

This experience is not because of his talent.

It's just that the classmates are teenagers who are new to foreign languages, so He Zhiyang immediately achieved crushing results, which made people amazed!

The master of this class came to He Zhiyang after the class and said, "Zhiyang, the assistant teacher of the Ryukyu Academy gives a lecture, do you want to participate?"

"Forget it, master." He Zhiyang shook his head directly, and said with a smile, "My grades still need help from others. How can I help others?"

"That's not what I said." The new foreign language teacher said seriously: "You have strengths in the ruler, so don't worry about your other academic performance. If you study foreign languages ​​seriously, your future will definitely be limitless..."

He Zhiyang was somewhat hesitant, he was in the Ming dynasty, although he came from a high family, he still couldn't feel at ease as a rice bug?

Seeing that the teens are about to become crowned, they must have a skill to gain a foothold in the capital.

Imperial examination... He lived abroad for a long time in his previous life, and he never memorized any of the ancient poems that must be memorized. After passing through the Ming Dynasty for a period of time, he has integrated all aspects of customs and customs, but it is stinky and long. Even after memorizing the poems, his head still hurts.

It is almost impossible to get ahead with the imperial examinations together with those classmates who have been studying since they were young.

If he can be selected to go to Honglu Temple by learning foreign languages, it is also a decent way out for his own family.

He Zhiyang thought for a while and said: "Master, I am indeed interested in the languages ​​of the Western Regions, Ryukyu and other places. When can I start giving lectures after I sign up? Will I be able to become a teaching assistant if I pass the lecture, and go to Honglu Temple?"

The master suddenly became interested, and said happily: "The lecture test is roughly divided into three rounds. In the first round, you write a policy theory in a foreign language and recite it in front of everyone-you don't have to be afraid. You can barely pass the policy theory. It won't be like The imperial examination is so complicated that the selection will begin in about a month after this round. If you can pass the test, the second round will be to communicate with people from all over the Western Regions and score on the spot. It’s easy to talk about the exchange of classmates in the Fanguo Academy this time, it’s just a semblance..."

Recitation is easy to say, probably similar to modern speech contests, as for the second round and the third round should be much less competitive than the imperial examination, after He Zhiyang made up his mind, he only listened to the master and said: "It's just that you can become a teaching assistant. You may not be able to go to Honglu Temple after you finish your studies at the Imperial College, it still depends on the vacancy of the official position, but with your background, as long as you have the experience of teaching assistant, you will be successful in the future."

The children of honored officials like He Zhiyang have a family background, as long as there is one thing that is slightly higher than ordinary people, it will be a huge boost to the sky.

When the master said it bluntly, He Zhiyang felt quite uncomfortable.

He is domineering and arrogant, but he did not rely on the power of his father and brother. Now he is directly pointed out that he can rely on the strength of his life experience, and then think of the scene where he entered the Imperial College with a low score. Leakage, but his father has a title, and when it comes to important opportunities, he is immediately separated from the common people's children, and there is no need to hide and evade, as if he is in a powerful family, these are the benefits he is born to get.
