Chapter 669: The Doctor of the Academy


    Fei Qian did not choose to take a detour north to Jinyang and other places in Taiyuan. He just wandered around the south of Taiyuan for a while, then left Luliang Mountain from Yong''an and returned to Pingyang.


    Going all the way north to Jinyang before you reach full age is a bit too much. A transit like this is the best way to handle it, letting the Taiyuan people clearly know their strength without appearing too ostentatious and domineering.


    Now the Academy in Pingyang has become a scenic spot. Although the school has not officially started, many people from nearby areas, especially people from Hedong and Xihe, have come to Pingyang and settled in Pingyang, waiting for the opening of the Academy in the spring. Officially opened.


    The study of Confucian classics in the Han Dynasty has become the knowledge of the court. Those who do not understand the classics cannot be officials. This has become a default rule. Therefore, everyone has great enthusiasm for the study of Confucian classics, even Chang Lin from Yong''an. I have repeatedly requested that after the school term starts, I can be given some time to come to Cai Yong and Cai Zhonglang for consultation...


    But this also brought some problems to Fei Qian. There was no problem with the scriptures. Cai Yong''s collection of books was as vast as the sea. Taking out a thousand volumes would be enough to last for a while. And according to the character of old man Cai, he would give books to others at every turn. Habit, maybe you still have to pay attention, don''t let him be defeated all at once.


    It is mainly a human problem, and there are not enough Ph.D.s in economics.


    ??Cai Yong is a high-ranking official in the academy, so he can''t let Cai Yong take all the classes, right? It''s like a course that covers the theory of physical relativity and then popularizes action and reaction forces. This course is inevitably a bit...


    what to do?


    Of course it’s up to Fei Qian to come up with a solution…


    ? Sometimes Fei Qian feels like a jingle cat, having to deal with various problems anytime and anywhere, and having to take something out of his head. Will he be drained sooner or later if this continues?


    On top of Peach Mountain, in the small courtyard belonging to Cai Yong, Cai Yong is really leisurely now. He has set up a table in the small pavilion in the backyard, makes tea soup by himself, and sits and watches the clouds roll. Yun Shu, I feel so uncomfortable.


    “I’ve met the master.” Fei Qian bowed politely and said he had met Cai Yong.


    ??Cai Yong asked Fei Qian to sit in the pavilion, then looked at Fei Qian, suddenly smiled and shook his head.


    ??Although Fei Qian was a little confused by Cai Yong''s laughter, he was not easy to ask.


    "The academy is about to be opened. I wonder what my instructions are, master?" Fei Qian also didn''t find it easy to say, master, you are so leisurely. What plans do you have for the academy? So he had to change it to "instructions"...


    "Well...but what''s the problem?" Cai Yong also understood Fei Qian''s meaning and asked.


    Fei Qiangong cupped his hands and said, "Master Mingjian, there is still a shortage of doctors in the academy..."


    The term "doctor" was not first created in the Han Dynasty. In the pre-Qin Dynasty, the official title of "doctor" was already used in the court. At that time, the Qin Dynasty called doctors, which meant those who were knowledgeable in arts. Doctors at that time did not only refer to those who were knowledgeable in classics, but anyone who was proficient in some majors could become a doctor.


    In the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the positioning of doctors was that they could understand both ancient and modern times, but this gradually changed.


    Because the standards for doctorates are also changing. In the beginning, including the Pre-Qin Dynasty and the early Han Dynasty, doctors were all people with great academic reputation and were hired by the emperor himself. It can be said that at this stage, the title of doctorate is extremely rare and precious.


    By the time of Emperor Wu, it became a combination of conquest and assessment. "Officials in the scholarly world should be knowledgeable about the past and present, review the past and learn the new, and understand the state. Therefore, they are called doctors. Otherwise, scholars will have nothing to say and will be underestimated by the world, which is not why they respect morality." After two thousand stones or more, Only after being recommended by officials and passing the high-level examination can one become a doctor.


    With the development of the times, the reputation of this doctorate has become less and less valuable.


    By the time of the Han Dynasty, not only was doctorate no longer an extremely prestigious position, but it was also required to be tried before being hired. Not only that, the recommended person was also required to have a bond, and many stipulations were also made, such as having no serious illnesses, etc... Therefore, the teachers who teach scriptures in Fei Qian''s academy are also called doctors of classics.


    ?? Cai Yong stroked his beard and frowned: "Doctor... Zhong Yuan is appointed as the guardian of Mount Tai, and Wen Ju is appointed as the guardian of Beihai. This..."


    ?Fei Qian is dumbfounded. Old man Cai Yong Cai’s standards for selecting personnel are so high. He often chooses from officials worth two thousand dan. This is really...


    ?Such a small temple would be completely packed with the great **** Cai Yong. Even if Fei Qian was willing, these people would not be willing to come.


    ?However, Cai Yong''s words reminded Fei Qian that he still had a great **** that he could go to worship...


    "Master, when the academy was first built, Mount Tai, Beihai, and Kong Jun were two thousand stone prefects... This..." Seeing that Cai Yong''s choice was too high-level, Fei Qian simply said, "... I heard that Yuan Yu and Wen Wei A senior brother is currently idle at home..."


    "Yuan Yu and Wen Wei..." Cai Yong thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "With Yuan Yu and Wen Wei''s talents, they are enough to be doctors, but they are still young, so I''m afraid people will judge..."


    ? ? There is also an unspoken rule in the Han Dynasty that a doctorate must be over fifty years old.


    Fei Qian said: "Master, because of the breadth of knowledge, what does age have to do with it? If you are not convinced, we can discuss it at Minglun Hall." Fei Qian himself reached the position of two thousand stones at a young age, but Now no one in the government or the public dares to say that Feiqian is not worthy of his name. After all, there was Baibo before him and Xianbei after him. They are all real achievements...


    ?However, this has also created the current situation where Fei Qian''s affairs are not easily handled by the court. After Fei Qian achieved the feat of defeating Xianbei, it stands to reason that he should be promoted one or two more. However, Fei Qian is only in his early twenties and is already a high-ranking two thousand stone. No matter how much he wants to raise it, is he still mentioning the position of Sangong? Can''t?


    ??But it is just words of encouragement, and it is afraid of chilling the enterprising spirit of the soldiers, so they are still arguing, and there is no conclusion yet.


    Fei Qian said he was also drunk at the court''s reaction speed. However, in the Han Dynasty, such things were normal. An order from the court was conveyed to the local area. Except for urgent military orders and the like, ordinary government orders were delivered at an appalling speed. Those that were closer were not bad. If they were more remote, I’m afraid the orders given at the beginning of the year may not reach the end of the year yet...


    ?? Cai Yong shook his head, nodded again, and then smiled and said: "That''s okay, that''s okay. I''ll write a letter as a teacher and state the reason clearly. You can come and go as you please..."


    Freedom of coming and going?


    ?Hmm, okay. Nowadays, celebrities in the Han Dynasty still have a high degree of freedom. It is a natural phenomenon to change jobs at every turn. Fei Qian can only do his best. As for the choice, it is still in the hands of these people.


    ?However, in addition to the doctor''s problem, Fei Qian specially came to visit Cai Yong, and there was another thing...


    Decryption of how Jiang Wei gained great power when he appeared on the scene:


    “The Prime Minister and General Jiang have a very good relationship...”


    “..…because General Jiang’s appearance is somewhat similar to the late emperor…”


    "In this case, why does General Jiang keep asking about the late emperor''s habits?"


    “Probably General Jiang wants to make the Prime Minister happy...”
