That's what I said.

There was already a silence in the hall.

To be honest, to mock Deng Jian by writing poems is simply a humiliation.

Everyone was silent, even on their faces, they were extremely afraid of showing any dissatisfaction.

In fact... the trend of the Wei and Jin Dynasties was actually still left in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

Although many outstanding people who were on horseback and on horseback were also emerging at this time, under the supervision system, a large number of people who were keen on talking about the mystery and despise practice appeared.

This is like, if you don’t know the law, you can still be an official, so why do you have to memorize the law in a scattered way?

After all, talking about the law is not something that can make people look at, but if you can write a good poem or say something awkward, it will make people look at you differently.

So, who would like to read the etiquette and law of memorization?

For Deng Jian, it is different.

In fact, in the imperial examination system, if you want to do a good job of writing, you cannot avoid reading these things carefully. These are all things closely related to the Tang Dynasty. If you cannot accurately quote it, then this article will be difficult to do.

What's more, the university is constantly increasing the difficulty, and the teaching and research group's various strange questions are released. In essence, it is necessary to use this knowledge familiarly in the process of repeated mock exams, so as to achieve full mastery.

This is a great test for a person.

Fortunately, people are in a university and are in a special and closed environment. A person can study in a system department without selflessness. After all, people are good at using mock exam results, unlike after leaving the university, people's respect for a person comes from money, power, appearance, etc.

In a closed environment, everyone has no personality, power and money cannot penetrate, and everyone wears a very ordinary Confucian shirt. This Confucian shirt is uniform in its standard and the materials are the same. The daily life is exactly the same, without any special treatment or distinction.

If you want people to study selflessly, you must have a value system that encourages reading. At the same time, you must have strong financial resources to support a group of Confucian scholars who specialize in studying the imperial examinations. You also need a group of capable teaching personnel. You also need strict school rules and various complementary countermeasures.

But Deng Jian's performance surprised Li Shimin.

Because this guy can be said to be free to both etiquette and law, which is enough to show his ability.

However, before, Deng Jian was still modest and cautious. He could be steady in front of others. Even if he was humiliated, he could be as solid as a rock and refused to retort. However, when he really wanted to show off his talents, he showed his talents without hesitation. Such a person... is not only trustworthy, but also worthy of entrusting his responsibilities.

Only then did Li Shimin stroking his hands and said, "Okay, okay, Deng Qing is indeed worthy of being Jie Yuan. The person who came here will give Deng Qing a seat."

Deng Jian said seriously: "Your Majesty and Master are here, so you dare not sit down."

Li Shimin: “…”

This is such a strange person.

Deng Jian respects Chen Zhengtai to the core. On the one hand, he is strict in his studies and attaches great importance to the superiority and inferiority in the school. Of course, it is not that Chen Zhengtai deliberately creates an atmosphere of superiority and inferiority. But... After all, the number of teachers who teach is limited, but the number of students is more than ten times that of teachers. If you want to manage at a low cost, you must have a set of concepts of superiority and inferiority. In this way, the students can be content and not have other ideas about the superiority. Otherwise, it would be a bit embarrassing to beat the teacher every now and then.

When gentlemen are here, students must abide by certain rules, and Chen Zhengtai is a master, so he naturally has to worship him as a god.

This is a system of etiquette between teachers and students. It does not need to be like this for outsiders, but within this system, it is impossible to be careless. What's more, Li Shimin is Chen Zhengtai's mentor. In this way, under this set of etiquette, Deng Jian said that he would not dare to sit, so he was definitely not pretentious.

Another reason is that Deng Jian was grateful to Chen Zhengtai from the bottom of his heart!

What is the grace of knowing the favor? In this era when there are no poor men in the top grade and no noble sons in the poor families are still alive, the human class is very fixed. People like Deng Jian know that if it weren't for Chen Zhengtai, he would have become the lowest poor in his life and would have no chance to turn things around in life.

What this era advocates is the origin of family education. People who have books in their homes are never willing to show them casually. If you want to learn knowledge, it is impossible for the country to guarantee compulsory education for you in later generations, and you can pay some tuition or training fees, so you can get it.

In this era, not to mention knowledge, even a simple craft, it is all passed down to the father and son, or the man or the woman, and he will never teach it to outsiders.

Even if someone opens a private school, there are high requirements for enrollers. It is definitely not someone like Deng Jian who is qualified to enter. Private school is also a resource. You must use equal resources to exchange. The people who are qualified to exchange are only those children of aristocratic races or officials' families. Why should people teach you a person like Deng Jian's knowledge?

It is precisely because of this that Confucius, with 3,000 disciples and advocated the lack of distinction between teachings, was such a great thing. However, as the intellectual class gradually became more stable, such things were never heard of.

Chen Zhengtai is undoubtedly equivalent to granting Deng Jian a second life. The so-called recreation of kindness is true, so Deng Jian’s answer is very clear. I dare to sit in front of the king and prince, but if the master or the master is there, I am not qualified to sit down.

There was a silence in the hall, and people continued to look at Deng Jian.

I always feel that this person is incompatible with the people in the hall, as if he belongs to someone from another world.

Li Shimin laughed and said, "What do you think?"

Deng Jian said: "I wish to stand on the side of my master and serve my mentor to drink."

This is what a slave does.

However, Li Shimin did not make things difficult for him and nodded, "As far as you wish."

So Deng Jian stood on the side of Chen Zhengtai without hesitation, and stood with his head held high, motionless.

In front of everyone, Chen Zhengtai felt a little embarrassed.

Li Shimin smiled, raised his bottle and drank the wine, silently observing Deng Jian, thinking about his evaluation of Deng Jian.

When everyone saw His Majesty drinking, they pushed the cups and cups again. After a while, another dancer came in and sang and danced to cheer him up.

Deng Jian's eyes did not look sideways, as if he had no intention of watching.

Wait until the singing and dancing are over.

Li Shimin suddenly laughed and said, "Deng Qing."

"The student is here." Deng Jian replied honestly.

Li Shimin said: "Is that dance just now good?"

"good."

What a good way?”

"The students don't know."

Everyone laughed again.

But this time, the laughter was pretty kind.

Especially some old guys, there is a bit of ambiguousness in their laughter. If it weren't for the intrusion of His Majesty here, he would have wanted to be a teacher and teach his life experience at this time.

Li Shimin said enthusiastically: "Why don't you know?"

Deng Jian said seriously: "Students are serving their masters."

"Do your master also need to serve?"

"I saw that the master was not squinting and was so proud that as a disciple, how could he enjoy singing and dancing?"

Li Shimin looked surprised. He didn't pay attention to Chen Zhengtai's expression changes just now.

Unexpectedly, Chen Zhengtai was also looking straight.

Chen Zhengtai felt a little embarrassed. By the way, Li Shimin is his future father-in-law. Every time he drinks and dances, he is the most embarrassing time.

He laughed dryly: "Students really didn't want to appreciate dance just now, and they were thinking about what happened in the school."

Li Shimin couldn't help but say, "How can people get out of their own nature? It's really strange for you two."

Changsun Wuji, who was standing beside him, exasperated Chen Zhengtai happily: "Your Majesty, I just wanted to pour wine for Chen Zhan just now, and I was absent-minded about singing and dancing. Isn't this the same with this guy?"

Fang Xuanling did take a few glances at the singer just now, but he quickly withdrew his gaze immediately, then deliberately closed his eyes and pretended to be napping. At this time, he pretended to wake up and smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, the old minister is old, and when this time comes, he can't help but doze and feel sleepy."

Li Shimin laughed: "You guys..."

He didn't continue talking, but suddenly thought of something.

Li Shimin then said, "Deng Qing family, what else did you learn in college besides studying?"

Deng Jian was stunned for a moment, but couldn't answer for a moment.

Li Shimin immediately said, "Are you really only reading books?"

Fortunately, Deng Jian was not speechless, but said, "Occasionally he would exercise his body. Mencius said that when a person has given great responsibilities, he must first suffer his mind and mind, exhaust his muscles and bones, starve his body, and lose his body. He acted in distracted his actions, so he was moved and endured his nature, which made him unable to do so. The same is true for this in school. He did not advocate blindly studying hard. When he woke up early in the morning, he would have morning exercises, and in the evening, he would have evening exercises. Sometimes he would also learn some skills such as riding, shooting, fencing, and chariots."

After hearing this, Li Shimin nodded.

The body is actually very important.

Of course, this is also something that Chen Zhengtai can do nothing. In an era without antibiotics, all diseases must be resisted by human immunity, and there is no other way.

If so many students in the school really get sick, even if they have a clinic, they may not be able to cure the disease.

Under such circumstances, the school attaches great importance to the health of the students. If the health is good, the probability of getting sick will naturally be less.

So the school has a special set of practice methods.

Li Shimin smiled with satisfaction and said, "Yes, it should be so. I see that you are quite strong. It seems that you have some real skills."

Deng Jian honestly answered: "I dare not."

"Since that's the case..." Li Shimin was already a little drunk.

At this moment, he was full of interest and his heart was full of curiosity about the university.

Li Shimin is still quite good at martial arts, after all, he himself will win the world immediately.

So he said, "Do you dare to fight my guards?"

This is definitely a bad idea.

Most of them are drunk.

Chen Zhengtai was stunned for a moment, looking confused.

Some of the ministers laughed, while others were surprised.

However... someone said, "Watching dance is meaningless. If you fight, it will help you enjoy the wine."
