Valley Emperor
Vol 2 Chapter 156: Smart as Li Xuan
Li Xuan felt that it was necessary to mention Liu Bagou, don't go further and further on the crooked road of the Four Books and Five Classics, and finally crash into a dead end.
Are the Four Books and Five Classics useful? There must be some. For example, it is very useful to cite the scriptures and use the scriptures to praise Li Xuan, the ancient sage. Occasionally losing the head of the book is also a good strategy to pretend to be stupid and sell mad.
But for the Tang Dynasty, what it needs is not scholars who can drop their heads, but a group of officials.
But officials and literati are two different things!
Being an official does not have too many requirements on poetry, books and articles, even if the requirements are raised to the height of Mount Everest, but it is enough to recognize hundreds of commonly used words!
Playing conspiracies and tricks, harming the country and the people does not require much advanced literary talent. As long as the heart is dark enough, the illiterate can become an official, and often they can mix well. It is not impossible to accidentally sneak into the Taiye Pond. .
The same is true of the Datang Dynasty. It doesn't need too many literati with gorgeous literary talent. Touting how awesome the Tang Dynasty is and how awesome Li Xuan is, Wang Wenhua alone is enough, and others are better off doing something practical.
Li Xuan is now in urgent need of a large number of officials who can understand basic common sense and can read and write basic documents, not a group of literati.
Therefore, Li Xuan said: "The sage's classics contain the best of the heavens and the earth. It takes a rough understanding of the scriptures. Even a talented and beautiful jade will take at least ten years to carve, and the mountain people and warriors are stupid, I am afraid that it will be difficult for them to become talents if they are given 20 to 30 years!"
When Li Xuan said this, he used more cautious words and took care of Liu Bagou's face. He knew that Liu Bagou had always regarded himself as a scholar. Even though he wore Taoist robes every day, he still regarded himself as a scholar. pride.
On weekdays, he attaches great importance to the decency of a scholar, and is always proud of himself as a scholar, so if Liu Bagou said that the Four Books and Five Classics are of no use to the family and the country, it would undoubtedly deny all his values and even his entire life.
As smart as Li Xuan, naturally he would not do this. He just said that the sage classics like the Four Books and Five Classics cannot be learned by ordinary people. This inadvertently elevates the status of the Four Books and Five Classics a lot, and it satisfies Liu Bagou. The sense of vanity in the mind of the reader.
If possible, Li Xuan intends to continue to elevate the status of the Four Books and Five Classics in the Tang Dynasty, until ordinary people feel awe when they see the names of these classics, and they look like they are reading books from heaven.
Damn, how can such a profound Four Books and Five Classics be learned by ordinary people like me? It has to let those great writers hide in the library and study it. We ordinary people should just learn some vernacular language, arithmetic, and other things. .
After listening to Li Xuan's words, Liu Bagou showed a hint of pride on his face, nodded slightly and said, "That's not bad, it took three years for the minister to enlighten, and he went to college at the age of twelve, and it was not until he was fourteen years old. When I read the Analects, I started to study the Five Classics after I finished reading Mencius at the age of sixteen, and it took fifteen years to read through the classics.”
But his pride made Li Xuan a little secretly despised!
No wonder Liu Bagou resented the imperial examination so deeply in his life, not because he didn't want to participate in the imperial examination, but because his level of scriptures was really limited. He had only read the Four Books and Five Classics in fifteen years, so his qualifications were poor enough.
People who are serious readers of the Eight Classics are generally enlightened at the age of four or five, begin to study the Four Books at the age of seven or eight, study the Five Classics at the age of twelve or thirteen, and start the imperial examinations at the age of fifteen or sixteen. The whole process takes about ten years.
The most obvious example here is Li Xuan himself. Why did his mother say that if it weren't for that dead ghost and Liu Bagou playing a rebellion, her precious son would have been admitted to a scholar long ago?
Because Li Xuanyuan had already completed the most basic education in the imperial examination era, he had memorized the Four Books and Five Classics.
So the Queen Mother Bai really can't be wrong!
But how old is Li Xuan? The year before last, he was fifteen years old when he came off for the first time, and then he passed the county exam and was unsuccessful in the government exam. When Lear became emperor, he was only sixteen years old, and you have to know that his age is still false!
If you are lucky and you are willing to continue to work, it is not a big problem to spend a few years to test a scholar.
As for Liu Bagou, it took 15 years to read these basic books, and this is far from being able to take part in the imperial examination. To take part in the imperial examination, the most basic thing is to be able to memorize the four books and five classics, and then each You are familiar with all kinds of annotations, otherwise the examiner will randomly ask a question, you don't even know where the question comes from, and you write a **** essay.
Liu Bagou has read books all his life, even Li Xuan, a teenager in his teens, is not as good as him, which shows that his reading aptitude is really bad.
Li Xuan sometimes wondered if this Liu Bagou had the idea of rebelling because of love and hatred because he couldn't even pass the county test these years.
He remembered that many anti-thieves in history, especially those who came from scholars, came this way. The famous son of God, Mr. Hong, is the most typical example.
Boss Hong, like Liu Bagou, are both extremely hard-working scholars. He has not been able to pass the examination for a scholar all his life. Boss Hong is a little better, and he can still pass the academy exam. It was only a fraction of a second, and Liu Bagou didn't even pass the county exam.
But thinking about it this way, it seems like he is also a fallout.
Damn, don't all the unsuccessful scholars like to rebel so much?
Li Xuan shook his head slightly, put all the messy thoughts in his mind behind him, and then said to Liu Bagou: "You can't find a talented person, and you can't make it quickly in just a few months, but I, the Tang Dynasty, urgently need something that can be read and written. Operator, Aiqing might as well change one or two, choose one or two smart people to focus on teaching, and the rest of the general, you can teach them to recognize a few words and count a few numbers!"
"In this way, Aiqing, you don't have to spend too much time on this. If you don't need to teach by words and deeds, there will be more people who can teach at the same time!"
After listening to this, Liu Bagou pondered for a while and said, "Your Majesty Shengming~www.wuxiaspot.com~ literacy classes are indeed mostly generals, so if you think about it, you can only retreat!"
Li Xuan nodded with a smile: "Since this is the case, then the enlightenment from the Huidu School of Engineering should also be incorporated into the current literacy class!"
After such a conversation with Liu Bagou today, Li Xuan is even less hopeful that Liu Bagou and the others will be able to teach any good students.
But it's not very good to find other people. Could it be that he has to be a teacher in person like other transmigrants?
But he can't be a teacher!
Forget it, let Liu Bagou and the others do their enlightenment work first, and then think of a way to see if they can compile a textbook for them to learn by themselves.
He, Li Xuan, is an undergraduate student, even if he has only three books, but it should not be a problem to teach a group of ancient aboriginal common sense such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division and basic physical chemistry and astronomy!
Well, there should be no problem, as smart as yourself, can't teach a group of indigenous people to learn addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, just kidding!
