The tenth year of Wanli.

Zhang Juzheng was in his tenth year as the chief minister.

It was also the tenth year that Emperor Wanli ascended the throne.

Chinese people like integers, especially in the tenth year.

In order to repay Zhang Juzheng's ten years of responsibility, the emperor added his imperial edict to the Grand Tutor. Zhang Juzheng's position was the most important minister, and his kindness met with the founding of the Ming Dynasty, no minister was above him.

As the New Year approaches, there are also happy events in the royal family. Empress Wang Xijie gave birth to a daughter. Although she is not a prince, she is also the royal daughter.

In addition, the palace maid named Wang, who was born in Longsi, was about to give birth to Concubine Wang.

Ten years after the emperor ascended the throne, the queen gave birth to a daughter, and another concubine, the empress dowager, was very happy, and ordered the palace to organize a celebration.

On the first day of the lunar month, the emperor accepted congratulations from all officials, and held a banquet to reward the ministers and rewarded the ministers with silver coins. As for the three auxiliary ministers, the five lecturers also rewarded colorful coins, silver and silk.

Lin Yanchao, who was ordered to live at home and was ordered to take him to live there, could not attend the banquet, and of course he did not receive any rewards.

After Guandai was idle, Lin Yanchao's tooth sign was handed over, and he could not even enter the Forbidden City.

From the first to the third day of the lunar month, the Forbidden City was very lively, with the king and his ministers having fun together and sharing the peaceful and prosperous times. Only Lin Yanchao seemed to have been forgotten by the court.

But Lin Yanchao, who had been busy for a year, was not disappointed, but planned to spend a good New Year. The Censorate sealed the seal, and Lin Yanchao was exempted from the Censorate to report, and he took the time to spend the holiday with Lin Qian at home.

However, although there were fewer business worries, Lin Yanchao still had no time to spare. Instead, the house was full of cars and horses.

In front of the gate of Lin’s mansion, there were endless scholars coming to visit.

Chen Jichuan came to Lin Yanchao with a thick stack of greetings again.

Holding so many greetings in his hand, Chen Jichuan said distressedly to Lin Yanchao: "All of them are famous scholars, either giving gifts to their doorsteps or submitting posts to the famous famous posts. The most difficult thing is these interviews to submit posts to the apprenticeship."

Lin Yanchao smiled and said nothing.

Xu Huobo nodded and said, "Yes, there are many people who want to join the teacher's disciple! After the bright moon reflected in the Wanchuan River in front of the palace gate, this merit was truly spread among the scholars in the capital."

"All the scholars now call Yongjia's learning directly the Linxue. I don't know how many scholars practice it every day. Those who post to their posts and those who give them to their apprentice Cheng Yi will worship them under the teacher."

Tao Wangling nodded and said, "Fortunately, the teacher is now idle, otherwise he would have come more, and most of them are those who are interested in being in the turmoil. Now he is the one who is truly studying outside the door."

Chen Jichuan heard this and said, "Master, you need to consider this post. If you recommend it again, it will hurt many scholars. Besides, there are many masters who recommend it to your colleagues of the same year. These people cannot be ignored."

While he was talking, Yu Bo walked in and said, "Master, there is a person outside the door holding a post from Hanlin Master Chen, saying that Mr. Chen introduced him to join the Master's disciple."

Hearing that it was Chen Siyu's introduction, Lin Yanchao immediately said to Sun Chengzong: "Since he is a Bachelor's Day, you should not neglect it. You should first have a social event for me."

After Sun Chengzong agreed, he hurriedly left.

Some people came to the door with posts below, and several people still took posts from the Liubu Department, saying that they were their relatives and their children wanted to worship under Lin Yanchao's school to study hard work.

Lin Yanchao could not have greeted him in person, so he could only send Sun Chengzong, Chen Jichuan, Xu Huobo and Tao Wangling to meet the guests.

The scholars who came to the door were older were received by Sun Chengzong and Chen Jichuan.

An ordinary scholar, let Xu Huobo and Tao Wangling meet him.

After a busy day, I finally sent away these enthusiastic scholars, but the few of them were so tired.

Xu Huobo couldn't help saying: "Teacher, how did Confucius teach the 3,000 disciples back then? We met more than a dozen people today, and we were exhausted."

Tao Wangling smiled and said, "The three thousand disciples Confucius Sheng did not teach him one by one. Zixia and Zengzi also passed on the way of sages on behalf of their teachers."

Lin Yanchao looked at Tao Wangling's words, nodded slightly, and then said to the two: "What do you think when you come to the door these days and say you want to join my disciple?"

The two said together: "Teacher, most people are sincere in their intentions, not on a whim. There are dozens of people who come one trip or two, or even several trips."

Lin Yanchao nodded thoughtfully.

Sun Chengzong said on the side: "Dongweng, you need to be cautious about teaching. Now Dongweng is idle and is in a suspicious place. If you teach here, you will inevitably be afraid of others. Hong Jinxi is the first to learn from the previous ones!"

Lin Yanchao nodded and said, "Thank you Mr. Sun for your reminder."

Chen Jichuan said: "But master, many of these disciples are recommended by ministers and nobles. If they refuse them rashly, it will be unfavorable to these ministers and nobles."

"What about your opinion?" Lin Yanchao asked.

Chen Jichuan said: "I think the master might as well accept posts from these people first, which can be considered as being included in the disciples. In this way, the master does not need to come forward to give lectures, which can also attract people's hearts and use them for their own purposes."

"Isn't this a post to become a disciple?" Sun Chengzong frowned.

That's right, it's a disciple's post.

For example, Lin Yanchao was in the same year, and he had to keep a post from Shen Shixing's disciples, so that it would be convenient for him to go out to do things.

Logically speaking, it is not uncommon for officials above the third rank or supervisor, or local official seal officer to receive posts for disciples. However, it is very rare for Lin Yanchao, a just sixth rank official, to be deprived of his post at home, to receive posts for disciples.

Lin Yanchao thought about it and said that in the officialdom, there are no taboos for students who receive students. If you are the chief examiner of the provincial examination, or the supervisor of a provincial supervisor, and the Imperial College, this is the way to recruit students publicly, and the court officials will not have any questions.

But if you don’t use this method to recruit students, then you will be suspected of forming a clique. And if you give them a post at will, many people can use this post to cheat them out.

In this era, there are rights and obligations between teachers and students.

For example, in history, Gu Yanwu was in trouble, and someone asked Qian Qianyi for help. Qian Qianyi said yes, "Okay, if you ask Gu Yanwu to hand me a disciple's post, I will help him." So this person sent a post to Qian Qianyi in an impersonation. Gu Yanwu refused after knowing it. How could I be the disciple of you, a big traitor? So he asked Qian Qianyi to return the post, otherwise he would have to clarify the facts in front of everyone. Qian Qianyi had no choice but to return the post to Gu Yanwu.

Therefore, Lin Yanchao is not willing to recruit students indiscriminately. Besides, most of these scholars learned from Lin Lin and wanted to study the classics. If Lin Yanchao recruits students' posts, wouldn't it become a relationship of interest in the officialdom? It becomes a way to form a party and make private interests?

Lin Yanchao thought for a while and said, "Okay, if you turn it out again, it would be unkind. If these people come again tomorrow, I will tell them to bring some useful articles by their side. If I read it, I will accept it. I will accept the posts of their disciples, but if they give it or not, they will have to evaluate their homework and conduct."

After hearing what Lin Yanchao said, everyone said it was wonderful.

Generally, when posting posts to students in officialdom, people who are respected are recommended. If a teacher has read it, they will be included in the disciples and form a teacher-student relationship between the two sides. This is a way to focus on interest relations. As for guiding students' knowledge and character, there is basically no one.

In this way, we will be separated from the true teacher and student.

But Lin Yanchao is different. If it is not in line with his own wishes, he will not accept your disciple's posts. It is just accepting your disciple's posts, just like a post in martial arts, a registered disciple.

After that, Lin Yanchao will still need to assess the students' academic conduct. If Lin Yanchao agrees, write his name on the disciple's post and return it to you. The real disciple's posts are in duplicate, and scholars can walk outside as Lin Yanchao's disciple.

This way of recognition is like the seal in Buddhism.

This is also the teacher-student relationship that truly turns into the teacher-student relationship that teaches and solves doubts, rather than the teacher-student relationship that is related to interests in the officialdom.

In this way, we can not only include scholars who really want to learn the classics, but also avoid forming cliques for personal gain. In other words, even if we form cliques for personal gain, we can also avoid being charged with this crime.

"The teacher's move is extremely good. It is better to have nothing than to be too bad, so as not to have a stingy person outside to act under the name of a teacher and ruin the reputation of a teacher." Tao Wangling was the first to agree.

Xu Huobo also smiled and said, "Yes, will we be the teacher's right-hand man in the future?"

Lin Yanchao looked at Xu Huobo with a happy look, and knew what he was happy about. Xu Huobo and Tao Wangling were trained by Lin Yanchao, and they can be passed on their hands in the future.

If there are more disciples in the future, the two of them will naturally rise.

Lin Yanchao couldn't help but think that this division would have become such a model for the inside, outer disciples, inner disciples, and true disciples in the Xianxia Novel Sect.

For example, the person who receives the post is called a registered disciple, and the person who gives the post is called a disciple, and then the disciples who enter the house such as Xu Huobo and Tao Wangling, and in the end, there are disciples who have passed on the robe and bowl.

And Sun Chengzong and Chen Jichuan are the elders.

This has simply turned on the martial arts gang mode, so why did you become a dignified leader?

This idea is indeed a bit big.

The next day.

As soon as Lin Yanchao was released the news that he intended to include his disciples, the scholar immediately came.

Although they were told that they could not post to their disciples first, many people were still willing to give it a try.

According to what Lin Yanchao said, Sun Chengzong and others called someone to write an article on the spot about their experience in merit and knowledge, as well as handy articles, recommendations, resumes, etc., to Lin Yanchao for review.

The set of articles presented was called "Shi Shu" by the ancients. The "Shi Shu" is also a letter of recommendation for scholars. If the other party accepts your article, it means to support you.

When Lin Yanchao was appreciated by Hu Tixue, he also offered an article to him, which he included.

Lin Yanchao reviewed the articles one by one.

Lin Yanchao's collection is also a comprehensive consideration. For example, the person who introduced this scholar has a very background or is a child of a prominent official family, so of course he is given priority.

Either they are from a juren, a juren, or who have won good rankings in the examination.

There is also the opinions in the article that have insights and insights, so such scholars focus on the collection.

Of course, some students also give gifts that are very generous. Other aspects are a little worse, so they are also OK. There is no difference in teaching. (To be continued.)
