Chapter 2264 The purpose of Yi Zilanaction
Yi Zilan was sitting in the front hall drinking tea. When she saw her coming, she waved her hand and said, "Just in time, I have something I want to discuss with you. Shao Qingyuan is not here, so it's the same with you."
Gu Yundong sat opposite him, but he was a little surprised, "You have something to discuss with me? What's the matter?"
A deep smile appeared on Yi Zilan's face, Gu Yundong always felt that he was very malicious.
Sure enough, Yi Zilan's next words made her frown.
"I met your younger brother just now. I haven't seen him for a year. He has grown a lot." He lowered his voice and asked, "The Imperial College is about to recruit students, have you heard?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis matter... Gu Yundong really doesn't know.
"I haven't heard of it." She has been focusing on Lu Wang's mansion all this time, and occasionally pays attention to the news of Taifu's mansion. She really doesn't care much about Guozijian or something.
After all, all the scholars in the family are in Xuanhe House, so she has nowhere to know about it.
Yi Zilan's face was full of hatred, but when he thought about Gu Yundong's situation, he could only sigh heavily and tell him the situation in Guozijian in detail.
Guozijian was the largest official academy and educational management institution in the Jin Dynasty. It can be said that there was no better academy than this in the whole Jin Dynasty.
The educational resources here are the best, the teachers are also the strongest, and even the most abundant connections.
Students from all over the country are trying to get into Guozijian to study.
However, there are also requirements to enter the Imperial College, and you must have a scholar and fame. Moreover, most of the children who entered the Imperial College were the sons of nobles.
If you are a student from a poor family, you also need a recommendation from an official of the fifth rank or above, but the places in the hands of these officials are also limited, and most of them are prepared for the children of their own family.
Of course, there are exceptionally outstanding people, who can be admitted by themselves. It's just that the exam questions of the Imperial College Supervisor are not usually difficult, and it is not easy to pass the exam.
This is also the reason why those two talents wanted to go through Yi Zilan's door. He is the prince of the county, and he is favored. If he wants to put two people into Guozijian, he can still do it.
There are about 6,000 students in Guozijian today. This is because some of them have retired in recent years.
When the late emperor was alive, many people abused their power to put those who did not even have the reputation of being a scholar into Guozijian. As a result, the number of students in Guozijian once exceeded 8,000. This is all kind of chaos.
In the past few years, a part of it has finally been cleared, and the atmosphere of Guozijian has improved a lot.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven the emperor invited back all the Confucian scholars who had been sent to office or wrongly imprisoned before, but these people did not want to be officials, so they were hired to Guozijian and became the guests of honor.
Many students want to become the introductory disciples of such a great Confucianism, not to mention whether they can be admitted to the jinshi or not, this connection alone is incredible.
Unfortunately, since the great Confucian is a great Confucian, it is not so simple and hasty to accept disciples.
At least as far as Yi Zilan knows, no one has caught their eye.
"But Gu Yunshu is different. This kid is very smart, and he's a nine-year-old talented young man. There's definitely no problem with talent, he has good character, he's bold, outgoing, and clever. When Qin Wenzheng's school was able to accept him, I I believe that other people will also love their talents and cherish them, what do you think?"
Gu Yundong raised his eyebrows, looked at him and said with a smile, "The prince seems to really want my brother to stay in the capital, doesn't he?"
The smile on Yi Zilan's face froze slightly.
