After talking with Wu Yanen to open a Naval Academy, Wu Haogu used the excuse to accompany Pan Qiaolian to visit the Tianya Town, and turned down the Wu family's banquet. After leaving the Wu family's mansion, Wu Haogu took Pan Qiaolian and Oliga straight to the courtyard where Mi Youren lived. Mi Youren's farm house outside Qushan County was quite large. It covers an area of ​​about dozens of acres, and it was a pattern of three in and nine out.

This house was not purchased by Mi Youren after he went to Haizhou to become an official. Local officials in the Northern Song Dynasty were not allowed to purchase industries in the place where they were appointed. This house was the dowry of Mi Youren's wife Wang, and Wang Wu Haogu also recognized it as a niece of Wang Shi, and the family was also a capitalist of generals. When Duan was choosing a concubine, Wu Haogu and Mi Youren went to paint a picture of her. Who knew that Mi Youren and the little lady of the Wang family were in a coincidence. After Mi Youren's high school degree, he married Wang Xiaozi through the door with a glorious house. The house in Haizhou was one of Wang Xiaozi's dowry.

Wu Haogu, Pan Qiaolian and Oliga dismounted outside Mi Youren's house and were about to tie the horse up, but they saw Mi Youren walking out of the room with a young man under 20 years old. The two looked like they were chatting and laughing.

"Hey, teacher, sister 18, why are you here?"

When Mi Youren saw Wu Haogu, he seemed particularly enthusiastic and quickly walked down the doorstep.

But he came and put the young man aside.

However, the young man was not angry, and there was a gentle smile on his face, which made people feel very intimate.

But in that smile, Wu Haogu saw some arrogance and nobleness. Young people with this temperament were mostly second generations of Jinshi civil servants, and seven out of ten were still great talents. Wu Haogu had sold calligraphy and painting on Panlou Street, and many talented men had seen them.

"Yuanhui, who is this gentleman?" Wu Haogu looked at the elegant young man and asked.

"Ah, that's Li Si, the chief minister of the family, Li Boji."

After saying that, he turned his head to the young man who was coming down the stairs and said, "Bo Ji, this is Mr. Chongdao, his teacher, and he is also a newly acquired disciple of Mr. Dongpo."

Li Sihe, Li Boji, Wu Haogu thought about it and had no impression. What kind of "character" and "number" are used by the ancients? People who are not familiar with them don't know who they are talking about?

"Li Gang has met Mr. Chongdao."

When Wu Haogu was confused, the young man finally bowed and reported his name.

Li Gang? Uh, no, he should be the famous Li Gang! It was the one who "killed" Song Huizong, and the two of Song Qinzong's two famous generals resisted the Jin generals. Uh, it was not completely unfair to say that Li Gang, because he did not insist on resisting the first time the Jin soldiers crossed the Yellow River south in the first month of the first month of the Jingkang year. Even if he was not willing to incite the imperial guards to escape, Song Qinzong had already taken his royal family members and nobles out of Kaifeng Prefecture to hide from Xiangyang Prefecture.

Although Kaifeng Prefecture would have fallen a few months earlier, there would have been no later "Two Emperors' North End".

"It turns out that it was Li Boji, who has long admired him, long admired him."

Wu Haogu didn't dare to be a great scholar in front of the future prime minister, so he quickly bowed back and asked with a smile: "Did Brother Bo Ji come to Haizhou to listen to his teacher Mr. Dongpo's lecture?"

Mi Youren interrupted, "If you have something to do, don't talk at the gate. Brother Bo Ji, why not just use a meal at my house."

Li Gang smiled, "Then I'll bother you."

Mi Youren made a gesture of Suke, and then led Wu Haogu, Pan Qiaolian and Li Gang to the house together, while Oliga waited in the ear room at the gate of the Mi Mansion.

The four of them sat down in the middle hall of the Mi Mansion, and a female envoy presented tea. Mi Youren said: "Brother Bo Ji is a talented person in the world, so he is not in a hurry to take the imperial examination, but travels around to seek learning. Hearing that Mr. Dongpo taught in Yuntai, he came here to ask Mr. Dongpo for teaching."

Mi Youren did not say that he wanted to join the Sumen, but just asked for advice. Because Li Gang's father, Li Kui, was a Jinshi who knew the military and had followed the Fuyan Jingliu Gongliu, Lu Huiqing, for many years, and made many military achievements. He undoubtedly belonged to the new party camp in terms of party factions. With the care of Lu Huiqing, his official career was also very good.

Therefore, as Li Kui's son, even if Li Gang admires Su Dongpo's knowledge, it is difficult for him to openly enter. Otherwise, his father Li Kui would be difficult to be a human being.

Wu Haogu took a sip of water and smiled: "That's right, Mr. Dongpo's school in Yuntai means official. He has recently regained the bachelor of Longtu Pavilion and was appointed as the Chaosan Doctor. Now he is sent down to the Yuntai Academy.

And this Yuntai Academy was not established for the imperial examination. The knowledge it passed down was one of practical learning; the other was the Confucian classics that could be spread overseas."

When Li Gang heard this, he became interested.

The imperial examination was not very difficult for him. The reason why he did not accept this subject was because his father Li Kui believed that his son's knowledge was all about the imperial examination, and even if he passed the imperial examination, he would not be a good official. For Wu Zhongyi, who was the last Jinshi in high school, high school was a success! For Li Gang's "second generation of Jinshi" with a bright future, Jinshi was just a stepping stone, and the goal was to recommend joining the two governments.

To recommend joining the two provinces, it is not enough to rely solely on beautiful articles. You must have practical knowledge, otherwise you will be the end of being a Hanlin bachelor.

But where can we learn the skills that are practical? The academies of the Song Dynasty were everywhere, but most of them were opened for exams, and the target was the imperial examination. Even if there were a few of them who were studying, they all aimed at seeking the great way, and there were not too many practical studies involved.

As for the Imperial College, Imperial College and Martial College, although they wanted to use them to cultivate qualified bureaucrats as early as when Wang Anshi was in power, they were still an imperial examination training class after so many years.

If you want to learn practical learning, the best place for the entire Song Dynasty is probably the place where the eunuchs who have no eggs are specially studied in Qionglin Garden. Although the practical skills of civil and military officials in the Northern Song Dynasty were obviously insufficient compared to those of the Han and Tang dynasties, the quality and ethics of the Northern Song Dynasty were still good...

Of course, Li Gang could not study in Qionglinyuan, so he became interested in Yuntai Academy. Moreover, according to Wu Haogu, Yuntai Academy would be an official school or the official's personal explanation, so it would be an existence beyond the party, just like the Imperial Academy, Wushu and Imperial College.

"Brother Bo Ji wants to enter the school, you can take the exam." Wu Haogu gently stroked his palm and said to Li Gang, "Although Yuntai Academy is a pioneering place, the admissions must be fair. Only by passing the exam can you enter the school.

The examination is divided into two subjects. One is the five Confucian classics, which have classical meanings and theory, which are similar to the imperial examination; the other is the mixed learning of talents and skills, and you can apply for one subject by yourself. Brother Bo Ji has a family-born military science, so he should be able to pass the examination smoothly.

In addition, we also have age and country requirements for students who are admitted to Yuntai. Those who are over 30 years old will not be accepted. If they are not my subjects of the Song Dynasty, there will be restrictions."

Li Gang frowned, "If you are over 30 years old, you won't accept it? I'm afraid this is contrary to the saint's teachings, right?"

It's really troublesome! Wu Haogu looked at Li Gang, who was a few years younger than him, and explained with a smile: "Brother Bo Ji doesn't know that the main purpose of the official establishment of the Yuntai Academy is to spread the Confucian Taoist tradition overseas... The sea storms are dangerous, and it is necessary for young and strong people. If you enter school in your 30s, you will be at least 34 or 35 years old after completing your studies. Even if you are in good health, you won't be able to do it for a few years."

"After studying, you have to go overseas to spread the Confucianism?" Li Gang didn't want to go overseas.

He wants to learn something practical now, but to be a good official in the future, not to travel across the ocean to preach and preach.

"It's not necessary to go," Wu Haogu said with a smile. "Brother Bo Ji's future is naturally outside Donghua Gate."

Wu Haogu would not forbid his disciples from Yuntai Academy to respond to the election - he did not have such power, and if some Yuntai disciples could enter the imperial examination in the future, it would not harm his career.

Of course, he would not recruit too many "talented men" to school, so as not to go to the imperial examinations in the future and no one would go out to preach. However, Li Gang has a "must win" future. Of course, Wu Haogu would recruit him into the Yuntai Academy. If possible, he would let him join his own disciple and spread the "way of evil as the leader" - the way to make money! I wonder if Li Gang is interested?

After hearing Wu Haogu's statement, Li Gang immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then I'll trouble Mr. Chongdao to lead him down into Dongpo's door."

Everyone achieved their goals and their mood became particularly comfortable.

At this moment, Mi Youren held a banquet at home to entertain Wu Haogu and Li Gang.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, the sky was getting dark... Just as Wu Haogu and Li Gang were talking to each other, the female envoy outside the door suddenly came to report, "A minister of the state came and asked for a meeting outside the door."

Mi Youren was stunned and quickly stood up.

I felt strange: Could there be a thief who wants to catch it by himself?

His job is to be the Qushan County Magistrate, and catching thieves for the Song Dynasty was his job. Of course, he was not afraid of thieves. Because his father Mi Fu sent him two helpers, both miscellaneous military officials of the Kaifeng Imperial Army. He could not fight, but he still had some kung fu, so he would definitely not be able to catch the thief.

At that moment, Mi Youren and Wu Haogu said "Young Companion" and went out to see the public sent by the state yamen.

After a while, Mi Youren rushed back excitedly.

"Yuanhui, is there a thief who wants to catch it?" Wu Haogu also thought that there was a thief in Haizhou.

"It's not that there is a thief to catch it," Mi Youren said, "It's someone who came to Zuoyuan."

"Is there an edict to Mr. Dongpo?" Wu Haogu guessed that the edict that Su Dongpo must have been appointed as the edict to be promoted to Yuntai Academy.

Mi Youren nodded: "One letter was given to Mr. Dongpo, and another letter was given to the teacher."

"For me?" Wu Haogu was confused.
