Daqin: I was overheard by Zulong

Chapter 210 Excited Great Confucians

After Kong Jia and Shu Suntong left the Prince's Mansion, they did not return to their respective mansions, but went straight to the Imperial College.

As soon as they returned to Guozijian, they urgently called all the masters and gentlemen of Guozijian.

Kong Jia and Shu Suntong briefly introduced what they experienced in the Prince's Mansion, and then taught the usage of Chinese Pinyin to all the masters and gentlemen of the Imperial College.

The masters and gentlemen of the Guozijian were summoned inexplicably. When they heard Kong Jia and Shu Suntong say "Chinese pinyin", they all came out with a look of indifference, and some even looked disgusted, thinking that Kong Jia and Shu Suntong Sun Tong is looking for trouble.

But after Kong Jia and Shu Suntong explained the usage of Chinese Pinyin in detail, the faces of these people in the Imperial College changed.

"This, this Chinese pinyin, there is such a magical change in it, this is really..."

"Then, according to this, doesn't it mean that all of our current characters can be marked and pronounced in Chinese pinyin?"

"No, this Chinese pinyin was really created by the prince Xianyu in the prince's mansion? No way!"

"It's amazing, it's amazing, it's beyond words, how did he come up with it? Oh my god, this is really..."

The masters and masters of Guozijian talked a lot, and their interest in Hanyu Pinyin rose to the extreme in an instant.

Although it was almost three o'clock, these great Confucian scholars who would have rested long ago on weekdays did not appear to be in the slightest bit of sleepiness. Instead, their eyes were shining brightly, urging Kong Jia and Shu Suntong to continue their lectures.

Kong Jia and Shusun Tong looked at each other, with gratified smiles on their faces. Their original intention was to let the great Confucians of the Imperial College master the Chinese pinyin as soon as possible, so as to facilitate the next tutorials of the Imperial College.

"Okay, then next, I will teach you the list of initials and finals..."

Kong Jia and Shusun Tong divided the Confucians present into two, and each began to teach the usage of Chinese pinyin. After teaching the initials and finals, they taught the Confucians present the usage of tones and spelling.

They worked all night, until the morning glow appeared in the east, and when the sun rose, Kong Jia and Shu Suntong couldn't stand it any longer, so they gave up.

But the great Confucians who attended the class were still unsatisfied. Seeing Kong Jia and Shu Suntong's tired faces, they got up to leave one after another, but when they left, they were still inexplicably excited.

"Wonderful, wonderful, this Chinese pinyin is well used, and literacy is no longer a problem!"

"That's right, with this Chinese Pinyin, it will be easier for my Daqin students to learn knowledge, and it won't be so troublesome for me to teach it!"

"I didn't expect that with most of my body buried in the ground, someone like the prince could actually create such a magical thing."

"It doesn't matter who it is, as long as it creates something that is beneficial to the students of the world, I will admire anyone. This time, the prince, I really admire him!"

"It's really unexpected that His Highness the Crown Prince would create such a wonderful thing in the Prince's Mansion without leaving the gates!"

"Hahaha... It seems that I have underestimated the prince, maybe the prince has never been what we thought!"

On this day, the attitude of all the gentlemen and masters of the Imperial College toward Prince Zhao Yi suddenly changed.

When these great Confucians returned to their homes and took a short rest, they couldn't wait to return to Guozijian, and began to teach the usage of Chinese pinyin to the students of Guozijian.

The students of Guozijian are all young people, easy to accept new things, and they are new things that are of great use to their literacy. Naturally, they can learn faster than their husband and master.

And after knowing that the Chinese pinyin was created by the prince, soon there were many voices praising the prince in Xianyang City.

Later, as long as there were Shilin students, there would be discussions about Chinese Pinyin, and then there would be discussions about Prince Zhao Yi.

"Hey, how is your Chinese Pinyin learning? I have already memorized the initials and finals."

"You just learned this, I already know how to spell, and I'm trying to mark the pinyin word by word!"

"Wow, you guys are learning so fast, but let's not talk about it, this Chinese pinyin is really easy to use."

"Who says it's not? If I had this kind of literacy method earlier, how many times I would have been beaten!"

"Hey, tell me, did His Royal Highness create this method of literacy because he was afraid of being beaten?"

"That's nonsense! A dog can't spit out ivory, but you would think that you should create one like this and show it to me!"

"That's right, I just don't know what it means to be a prince. You are the only one who thinks of His Royal Highness like this. I'm afraid you don't know that Confucius and his uncle and grandson both worship His Royal Highness as their father." Teacher!"

"More than that, just based on the Chinese pinyin, the prince may be compared with the sage Confucius. Don't believe me, this is what Confucius said in front of us. He also said that when we meet the prince in the future, we must respect him as a mentor. Woolen cloth!"

"This is what it should be. His Royal Highness has made such great achievements, calling him a mentor, we are still on the top..."

When Shilin students talked about the prince in the past, most of them sneered and dismissed it. Now when they talk about Zhao Yi, they are all praises, and they even wish to be able to worship the prince immediately.

In Taiyuan's Li family's mansion, Li Qiao, the contemporary head of the Li family who is more than a few years old, is sitting at the head of the hall with a solemn expression.

Standing in front of him at this moment are two middle-aged men named Li Chengxiang and Li Chengrui, who are Li Qiao's two legitimate sons.

Li Chengxiang cupped his hands at Li Qiao with a worried expression on his face at this time: "Father, the one from Xianyang Palace has already made arrangements to urgently dispatch a batch of grain to Hanzhong County. The Xianyang warehouse has been opened. Our plan may not last .”

Li Qiao's face was calm, and a glint flashed in his eyes, "It seems that the man from Xianyang Palace is really becoming more and more decisive now. It's just that Xianyang and the place that allocates food and grass, do you really listen to him like this?"

"Father doesn't know something." Li Chengrui hurried forward and said, "The grain allocated by Xianyang comes from Berkshire, which is the land of Shu. Although Shu land was hit by a disaster last year, after planting potatoes, the food problem was quickly alleviated. "

"Then during the autumn harvest, I saved a lot of food, which was just in use at this time. Berkshire is close to both Shu County and Hanzhong, so I was able to solve that urgent need."

"It's really..." Li Qiao frowned slightly, "Last year's severe disaster was reversed because of the appearance of a potato. I heard that the locust plague that almost appeared later was inexplicably eaten up."
