Xiangyang City, Pang's house.
In the early morning, there was already a lot of traffic. One by one, the carriages stopped outside the mansion, and one by one, dressed in splendid clothes, stepped down from the carriage, and then went inside the mansion.
Each of these people is dignified and dignified. They are wearing a big shirt with a broad collar, and their clothes are windy. They are full of outstanding bearing.
After meeting one by one, they asked each other if they knew the purpose of the invitation.
However, all of them shook their heads, indicating that they didn't know.
This situation really surprised a person. Everyone was informed, but they didn't know what it was. It was really weird.
"Wheel! Wheel
A carriage came slowly.
Around the carriage, there was a group of soldiers to protect it. The first one rode on the horse, facing the simple and honest, but with a big figure.
People who were walking towards the mansion stopped and stood aside. Because they all knew the leader and knew that Huang Hu was Liu Xiu's follower.
Huang Hu's coming means Liu Xiu's coming too.
A moment later, the carriage stopped.
The curtain of the carriage door rolled up and Liu Xiu came out of the carriage.
"I've met Liu Jingzhou!"
"Liu Jingzhou is very polite!"
"Meet Liu Jingzhou!"
When people saw Liu Xiu, they saluted him one after another.
Liu Xiu's eyes swept over the crowd, then folded his hands, arched his hands and said, "you are so polite!"
"Liu Jingzhou, please!"
One by one, they waved their hands and motioned to Liu Xiu.
Liu Xiu said, "please, gentlemen!"
With that, Liu Xiu took a step and went straight to the mansion. After Liu Xiu left, he looked at each other one by one with a look of surprise in his eyes. Even Liu Xiu was shocked by what pound had arranged.
They went to the hall with doubts.
In the morning, everyone arrived.
In the hall, people took their seats.
However, no one has taken a seat in the two seats directly above.
When they saw that Liu Xiu was not there, it was obvious that pound and Liu Xiu were still discussing things.
"Step on it! Step on it
A rush of footsteps sounded outside the hall, which immediately attracted everyone's attention. When everyone heard about it, their eyes fell on the gate and saw Liu Xiu and Pang Degong coming together.
With a smile on his face, pound walked side by side with Liu Xiu and finally sat down at the table.
After sitting down, pound said, "thank you for coming."
The crowd immediately joined, all smiling.
Liu Xiu is like a wooden man sitting, silent.
Below, a Haoshou old man said: "Pang Gong asked us to come, in the end is for what?"
Pound turned around and replied, "gentlemen, I invite you here today because I'm going to open Xiangyang Academy in Xiangyang City to recruit more students. I recruit students regardless of their origin and age. As long as you have passed the examination of lumen academy, you can enter Xiangyang Academy. "
Brush!
As soon as this remark came out, it caused a wave.
Pound wants to establish academy!
The news is really shocking.
Many of you have narrowed your eyes with a look of examination.
At this time, on the right side of the hall, a middle-aged man in his thirties stood up. With a smile on his face, he said with a smile, "I'm a nobody in Xiangyang. Although I can only be shallow, I am also an inheritor of scholarly flavor and have been reading for generations. Because of the accumulation of generations in the family, we have a considerable collection of books, so that the children of the family can read
"If Pang Gong just recruited a few disciples to teach as before, it would be no problem to use Pang family's inside information and book collection. But Pang Gong said that we should recruit more students, which is hard to figure out. "
"Once lumen academy recruits more students, with Pang Gong's reputation in Jingzhou, there will be countless candidates, from thousands to tens of thousands. At that time, how can Pang Gong do well? Three thousand disciples of the sage only taught 72 sages in the end. Is Pang Gong comparable to a saint? "
In a word, it's all nitpicking.
The edge of the hall becomes extremely sharp in an instant.
At this time, everyone looked at him and waited for him to answer.
Mr. pound laughed and replied, "your honor, I can't compare with sage Kong. However, the three thousand disciples of sage Kong, regardless of their origin, education, profound mind and grand spirit, are admirable. However, although I don't have the courage and ambition of sage Kong, I still have to learn from him to benefit the common people. "
"What's more, as the saying goes, one is short of wisdom. I naturally understand that. Therefore, I have invited some great scholars to teach in the Academy. With the help of a group of great scholars, I believe that it will work. "With a smile on his face, pound replied humbly.
However, he held on and said in a deep voice, "Pang Gong has missed one thing. To teach scholars, great Confucians are naturally necessary. However, it needs a lot of information. With such a large number of people, it is definitely impossible to complete without a certain number. "
Pang Degong's face sank. Although the Pang family has a rich collection of books, it's really not easy to accomplish this task, because the Pang family's collection of books is really insufficient.
The words of goodwill hit the point.
This even made him a little embarrassed, but he was used to the storm and said with a smile: "as for the collection of books, the Pang family's collection of books is really not enough. But this matter has won the support of the Huang family and the Kuai family in Jingzhou, and they will give their full support by then. So please rest assured. "
He continued: "Pang Gong, you are going to establish Xiangyang Academy. Can several big families support a college? Moreover, the Kuai family and the Huang family can't support each other for the sake of lumen Academy. So I'm afraid your words are somewhat unconvincing. "
There was a touch of anger on Pound's face, but he didn't expect that the goodwill was like a dungstick.
"Cough!"
Suddenly, Liu Xiu coughed twice.
In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on Liu Xiu. Seeing that Liu Xiu took over, pound was also relieved. With Liu Xiu, he would be more relaxed. Liu Xiu would never suffer a loss.
Goodwill eyes fell on Liu Xiu's body, is also a look of examination, but he did not speak.
Liu Xiu said in a deep voice, "your honor, I have some ideas about the collection of books."
Goodwill did not dare to hold in front of Liu Xiu, neither humble nor overbearing way: "Liu Jingzhou, please say."
Liu Xiu said: "the collection of books needed by lumen academy will be strongly supported by the prefecture and even the whole Jingzhou. Therefore, you can rest assured that there is a shortage of books. "
"Pang Gong was able to stand up and set up lumen Academy. In my opinion, it was a good thing for the country and the people. Therefore, I should give my full support. "
Liu Xiu said: "there are countless books in the prefecture, and my officials are dispatched from all counties to collect books. Is this OK, sir?"
"Of course
The corners of his mouth twitched and he didn't dare to speak any more.
Liu Xiu defended Pound's face in front of everyone, which was a slap in the face. So that he can not resist, or even can only bear.
Suddenly, another old man came forward and said, "Liu Jingzhou mobilized so many books to support Pang Gong. Naturally, we have no opinion. But I have another question. Please ask Pang Gong. "
