    Reading was a privilege in ancient times. Although common people did a lot of reading, the proportion was much smaller than that of nobles and rich people. Zhou Li's promulgation of "the punishment is not as good as that of a great official, and the courtesy is not as good as that of common people" is even more of a shackle.  .  The Tang Dynasty was able to set up four schools and enroll the children of ordinary people, which was a great progress in the history of Chinese education and was of very important significance. It cultivated many talents for the Tang Dynasty and contributed to the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.

    "Brother Gao, you are fanning again, are you making sense? You have been fanning for several days." A rather mocking voice came.

    There is a pavilion in the open space. Several students are sitting around the pavilion and discussing issues. The atmosphere is very lively.  There was a student, about eighteen or nineteen years old, who kept slapping his right hand in front of his face. He frowned and was thinking about the problem: "Brother Liao, what you said is wrong. Everything must be clarified. Think about it and get angry.  When the fire is burning, if you fan it with a fan or blow with your mouth, the fire will burn brighter. What is the reason for this?"

    "Brother Gao, what sense does this make? This is something everyone knows, so there is no need to think about it." Another student poured cold water on him.

    "Brother Gao, it's us who know you. If you were someone who doesn't know you, they would definitely think you are crazy. Sit down quickly, stop fussing, let's recite poetry." A student pulled him to sit down.

    Zheng Wanru had a funny look on his face, as if he was watching a monkey jumping through hoops.

    Chen Wanrong listened with joy in his heart. Although the question raised by the student named Gao was ordinary, it was a chemistry question. In the Tang Dynasty, someone still asked such a question in Guozi Monitoring. Chen Wanrong was not surprised.  Neither works: "Who is he?"

    Although Zheng Wanru didn't understand Chen Wanrong's intention, she still replied: "Gao Jianbei, the famous lunatic in the Imperial College. If he doesn't study hard all day long, he does some inexplicable things."

    The inexplicable things he said must be related to natural science to Chen Wanrong. He asked with great interest: "What are they?"

    "Mr. Chen, I didn't tell you that there is nothing Gao Jian did that would not make people laugh." Zheng Wanru made a disparaging comment first, and then said what happened to Gao Jian: "He saw him fanning the fire with a fan, and the fire burned brightly.  They will ask what is the reason? When they see the meat or rice is spoiled, they will ask what is the reason? They think about these inexplicable things all day long. It is really crazy to give up a great future. "  He kept shaking his head, feeling sorry for Gao Jian.

    Zheng Qing knew Chen Wanrong very well and knew that he would not ask questions for no reason. When she touched Zheng Wanru: "Brother, don't talk nonsense. Some things seem unreasonable. As long as you think about it carefully, it makes sense. Brother Chen, don't you  Could it be that what the senior scholar said makes sense?"

    ¡°It¡¯s not just reasonable, it¡¯s very reasonable!¡± Chen Wanrong praised loudly.

    The students in the pavilion heard this and looked at Chen Wanrong with disdain on their faces, as if they were looking at a madman.  It¡¯s no wonder, let alone the Tang Dynasty when there was no chemistry, even in modern society, with the discipline of chemistry, if someone asks this question, they may get a blank look.

    Gao Jian took a look at Chen Wanrong, clasped his fists and saluted, "Brother, please give me your surname, Gao."

    "Mr. Gao has said it before, this is Chen Wanrong." After Chen Wanrong introduced himself, before he could ask further questions, he explained to him: "Your question is actually very simple. If you slap your hand like this, you will  When we feel the coolness, we call it wind. There is something called oxygen in the wind, and oxygen is needed to burn firewood. Whether you blow it or fan it, it all serves a purpose, to speed up the flow of oxygen and make it  The faster the contact with the firewood, the more the fire will burn brightly."

    It is easier for Gao Jian to understand by saying that the air is wind.

    Those students originally heard it as a joke, but the more they listened, the more it made sense. They stopped laughing and listened quietly to Chen Wanrong's words.  Gao Jian seemed to have found a treasure, his eyes widened. After thinking for a while, he asked: "Mr. Chen, Gao Jian was enlightened. It's just that Gao Jian is ignorant. What is oxygen?"

    ? Oxygen needs no explanation for us modern people.  For Gao Jian, a native of the Tang Dynasty, an explanation was necessary. Chen Wanrong thought for a while: "To put it simply, oxygen is a component of the wind. The wind is like a bowl of rice, with rice, vegetables and oil in it.  , salt makes our food taste delicious. And oxygen is like any kind of oil, salt, vegetables and rice. Without oxygen, the fire will not burn well. "

    This metaphor is vivid and easy to understand. Even though these people in front of me are Tang people with no knowledge of chemistry, they still understand it, with expressions of "That's it" written on their faces.

    Gao Jian was the most excited and hurriedly turned to invite him: "Mr. Chen, please sit down and let's talk slowly. I have many questions that I would like to ask an expert like Mr. Chen for advice."

    Seeing his joyful expression, Chen Wanrong couldn't refuse: "I'm serious,"Saying these blessings and saying goodbye.

    Led by Zheng Wanru and Gao Jian, the group walked inside.  Gao Jian was in a great mood and took the trouble to introduce the Imperial Academy to Chen Wanrong. He pointed to the rows of school buildings and said: "This is Suixing Hall, Chengxin Hall, Chongzhi Hall, Xiudao Hall, Zhengyi Hall, and Guangye Hall, where students listen to lectures."  The places are collectively called the Six Halls."

    Zheng Wanru looked at the window and saw that it was empty, so he opened the door to show Chen Wanrong. Chen Wanrong took a look and saw that it was such a large room that could accommodate two to three hundred people to listen to the lecture.  The tables and chairs are complete and arranged neatly, in columns and rows.  What's more, spotless and very clean.

    ¡°It¡¯s really a good place to study!¡± Chen Wanrong was a little envious.

    Gao Jian smiled and said: "It's getting late now, and the students are doing their own things. If you come earlier, the sound of reading aloud will be intoxicating."

    Zheng Wanru closed the door, pointed to the long row of school buildings in front and introduced: "This is the Four Schools School. The Four Schools have the largest number of Imperial College students. There are now more than a thousand people and they occupy the largest space."

    The Four Schools have expanded several times, and at its peak there were 1,300 top students from the Four Schools, which is a glorious event in the history of Chinese education.

    Gao Jian pointed to a courtyard in front and said in a loud voice: "Brother Chen, this used to be the place where Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty gave lectures. Back then, Emperor Taizong visited the Imperial College and taught "Spring and Autumn" here. The students of the Imperial College were surrounded by water.  It is said to be a prosperous place for a while. Now, it has been changed to Chongwen Pavilion, where all the books in the world are collected. If you can understand the eleven, you are a generalist."

    Chen Wanrong took a closer look and found that Chongwen Pavilion was not inferior to modern large libraries at all. There were countless books collected.  This is the treasure house of Chinese civilization, and Chen Wanrong couldn't help but feel excited!  (To be continued.
