The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

"According to what you said before, every year there will be students who are just starting out, and then the students of the previous year will go to study more in-depth knowledge books, so they should be distinguished." Lu Deming continued, "This is similar to the Imperial College, but after thinking about it, I think the Imperial College's curriculum in this regard is not as good as what you proposed."

The Imperial College is mostly composed of children from high-ranking officials or outstanding scholars in various prefectures, who are recommended to Chang'an and enter the Imperial College. The doctors in the Imperial College teach courses and don't care about the students' own progress.

They only teach, and if you don't understand, you can ask privately.

Therefore, the students in the Imperial College actually have different progress, and the most important thing is that whenever the doctors give lectures, the students must have read the book in advance, or even memorized it.

But it's not the case in Zhuangzi's school.

After all, farmers don’t have that many books for their children to read at home, so they can only get access to books and classics in school. Even for enlightenment, they need to be fed word by word by teachers in the classroom.

From last year to this year, the school in Zhuangzi has just started. After all, there is a place for formal classes and a dedicated teacher.

Before last year, the school in Zhuangzi was more rudimentary than it is now. There were only five or six students and one teacher. The class time was not regular. When it was busy, the teacher had to work in the fields, and the students also had to help their families with the work in the fields.

"So, the school here will definitely expand greatly in the future." Li Fu said: "Change a classroom every year, and when you have learned it, you will be considered a master and graduate."

"And in my imagination, even teachers have their own specialties. The teacher who specializes in this subject will not change, but the students who study with the teacher will change every year. In this way, the teacher may have a deeper study of a subject when teaching it."

"For example, if you study a book of Analects for ten or eight years, you will definitely learn more than if you only read it for three or five months." Li Fu smiled.

Lu Deming also smiled: "Isn't it to review the old and learn the new."

"Yes, yes, that's what I mean. Review more, know more, and dig out more new things." Li Fu nodded repeatedly.

"So, I'm thinking about taking advantage of the locust plague to recruit more workers and use food to attract more people to work, so that the academy can be done." Li Fu said, "The manor needs a lot of people, there are a lot of things to do."

"Oh~~" Lu Deming sighed, "Your manor has never stopped since last year. If you keep doing this, how many years will it take?"

"No matter how many years, as long as it is done well, it will be worth it." Li Fu said, "This is a multi-party benefit.

But there is one thing that I am still a little unsure about.

In the future, the academy on the manor will be established and more students will be recruited. People in the manor, as long as their families are more affluent, will definitely want their children to study.

However, the existence of the academy has reached a certain point, and perhaps it will be an eyesore to others."

Lu Deming had a slight smile on his face.

After hearing what Li Fu said, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and then his brows slightly wrinkled.

He understood what Li Fu meant.

From ancient times to the present, the right to study has always belonged to a few people. They hold this right, and then cultivate their own descendants and try their best to enter the court.

But if there are more scholars, some people will become officials after reading and have the ability.

Then the original positions will be divided a lot.

In the big family, even if you are not good at reading, you can get an inconspicuous official position by relying on literacy and family connections.

But what if this phenomenon is broken?

Those who strive for excellence in learning will still have a stable position.

But it will not be so easy for those who are mixed up in the officialdom.

This will inevitably touch their interests.

Moreover, it is foreseeable that in a few years or even more than ten years, there will be conflicts between the "academic school" and the "family school".

This is also why Li Fu is setting up a school on the farm. He is still doing it secretly for fear of "dying before the business is halfway done".

"If it really comes to that, you are at least a prince, and His Majesty is standing behind you." Lu Deming said, "There will always be a way, but at least for now, it is just a small school on the farm."

Li Chengqian sat next to him and listened to the conversation between Li Fu and Lu Deming.words.

He also understood.

That is, the academy will cultivate talents useful to the court in the future.

But these talents will squeeze out the positions that originally belonged to the children of the aristocratic families.

Therefore, if the academy develops in the future, it will definitely be unacceptable to the aristocratic families.

The little Li Chengqian began to make a plan in his heart at this moment.

The academy, Wang Shu wants to run, Aye wants to protect, and I want to protect it even more!

As long as it can provide excellent talents for the court, people can work for the court and the people, then he doesn't care whether these talents come from aristocratic families or outside academies.

It's okay to compete openly, but it's better not to put the private intrigues on the table, otherwise one by one.

When Li Chengqian thought of the possibilities in the future, he couldn't help but feel a little fierce in his heart.

"When the things you worry about happen in the future, Huairen, it means that the academy in Zhuangzi has a certain power." Lu Deming smiled and said, "No matter your identity, who is behind you, or who you have invited to teach in your academy."

"The people in the academy are also one with the academy. In the future, they will surely prosper and suffer together."

"According to your request, Huairen, those who can enter the academy to teach in the future must not be ordinary people."

Lu Deming's eyes seemed to see through some of Li Fu's little thoughts.

The life and death of a simple academy is not worth mentioning.

But what if the academy is backed by the royal family and the teachers are famous scholars in the world?

As for how to operate it to be unshakable in the future, it depends on how His Royal Highness King Jingyang is "willing to give up".

"Dr. Lu, you are right about this." Li Fu said with a smile, "Any teacher in the academy must be carefully selected."

In addition to inviting world-famous people with all efforts, Li Fu also has plans for the rest.
