In Yu Zhuangyuan's pavilion, Zu Mingjun walked into a private room with Kong Huisuo and saw Qin Huaiyu and the others. "So the three of you are here. How come I don't see Brother Mo?"
Before Qin Huaiyu could answer, Yu Er came out from behind the two of them and said to the five with a smile, "Everyone, my Young Master is busy and can't come. He specifically told this lowly one to take care of the Young Masters!"
Kong Huisuo's face stiffened. Thinking of the conflict between Ru and Mo, his heart sank.
Cheng Chumo slapped his thigh and loudly said, "Meton is really too much."
"Ah! Brother Mo is also … "Kong Huisuo's heart warmed and he couldn't help but speak up for Meton to smooth things over.
To the side, Qin Huaiyu angrily said, "Also what? Brother Kong is also speaking up for this guy who forgets friendship for women?"
"Forgetting friendship for women!" Kong Huisuo was dumbfounded.
Zu Mingjun said with surprise, "Didn't you say that we can't meet before marriage? Could it be that Brother Mo is still … "
Before Zu Mingjun could finish, Kong Huisuo suddenly understood. Princess Changle would definitely attend such an important event. Meton must have gone to see Princess Changle at this moment.
Thinking of this, Kong Huisuo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Unknowingly, he had begun to value his friendship with Meton.
Yuchi Bao Lin nodded with a righteous expression and looked down on Meton.
Cheng Chumo curled his lips and said, "This is Meton. Do you think he will abide by these old customs?"
"Forget about him. Today, we are here to welcome Brother Kong. This meal will be on Meton's head. Who told him to be absent? Brother Kong, please sit at the main seat. "Qin Huaiyu warmly said and pushed Kong Huisuo to the main seat.
Kong Huisuo couldn't refuse and could only sit down. The group laughed and joked as they talked about this year's separation. Their feelings for each other became even stronger.
"Is Brother Zu adapting well in the Teacher Academy?" Qin Huaiyu asked. After Zu Mingjun arrived in Chang 'an, he had been following Teacher Li to the Academy. Qin Huaiyu knew that.
Zu Mingjun proudly said: "I found that the Teacher Academy is the best way for me to learn mathematics. Once everyone in the world learns it, it will be the time for my school to flourish."
The reason why Zu Mingjun was willing to stay at the Headmaster's Academy was that he saw the potential of the Headmaster's Academy. It had always been the Zu family's dream to develop the school of mathematics. Now that there was an opportunity to realize it, how could Zu Mingjun not seize it?
Kong Huisuo saw Zu Mingjun's expression and couldn't help but feel envious. A person who fought for his dreams would shine wherever he went.
"Brother Zu's dream will definitely come true," Kong Huisuo said seriously.
"Thank you for your kind words!" Zu Mingjun clasped his hands and turned to Qin Huaiyu and the other two. He said: "In my opinion, there won't be any war in the world in a short time. What do you three plan to do?"
Now that the Tang dynasty had just pacified Tuyuhun and used gunpowder as a deterrent, the surrounding people wouldn't dare to offend the Tang dynasty. Knowledgeable people knew that there wouldn't be any war in a short time.
Qin Huaiyu proudly said: "General Li's Recruit Plan is almost ready. Today, the three of us will go to the Military Academy to learn the art of war. We will go to the battlefield again in the future."
"The Military Academy!"
Although Kong Huisuo was far away in Shandong, he had heard of the Military Academy's reform and the Recruit Plan. Once the Recruit Plan was implemented, the Military Academy would definitely prosper.
Kong Huisuo sighed and said: "Four brothers, you are all fighting for your dreams and spreading the teachings of your school. But I am the only one who hasn't achieved anything in the past year. I am so ashamed."
Kong Huisuo had always thought of himself as Kong Sheng's descendant and had a high status. In the past, he didn't think much of the Military Academy and the School of Mathematics. Later on, they met by chance. Now, among the six of them, Meton had led the School of Mo to a renaissance. Zu Mingjun's rise in the School of Mathematics was just around the corner. Once the Recruit Plan was implemented, the Military Academy would definitely be unstoppable. He was the only one who hadn't achieved anything in the Qufu Kong Family. How could he not sigh?
As a promising young man, who didn't have the ambition to achieve something?
Qin Huaiyu suddenly patted Kong Huisuo's shoulder and said: "Let's not talk about the past. Since Brother Kong has come to Chang 'an, let's build a foundation together."
Kong Huisuo spread out his hands and said: "I am not as talented as Brother Mo. What can I do?"
"That's nothing! If Brother Kong wants to achieve something, it's easy. Leave it to me. "Qin Huaiyu said casually as if he was taking care of everything.
"I'll leave it to you …" Kong Huisuo looked at Qin Huaiyu with a face of disbelief.
When Qin Huaiyu saw Kong Huisuo's expression, he couldn't take it anymore. He lowered his head and pondered for a while. Suddenly, he clapped his hands and said: "I have an idea. When we were studying, we would often come across words that we didn't recognize or were unfamiliar. We would always argue endlessly and ask the teachers to help us solve our doubts. If Brother Kong were to collect all the words in the world and use them as a book. Then, we could put the words with the same pronunciation together and write a note, number, and page number. Then, we could put them in the table of contents and sort them out one by one. Or, we could search for the radicals and use the order of the strokes as support. This would allow people to search for unfamiliar words in the shortest time possible and solve their doubts. What does Brother Kong think of this idea? "
"Collect all the words in the world and use them as a book!" Kong Huisuo's heart suddenly trembled. As a scholar, how could he not have the idea of writing a book to pass on to future generations? Qin Huaiyu's suggestion made Kong Huisuo's heart beat faster.
"I have even prepared a name for you. It will be called 'Dictionary'," Qin Huaiyu said proudly.
"But with the 'Shuo Wen Jie Zi' before us, will this suggestion work?" Kong Huisuo said with some hesitation.
It was no wonder that Kong Huisuo was hesitant. After all, the influence of the 'Shuo Wen Jie Zi' was too great. If he also collected all the words in the world, wouldn't he be making a fool of himself by imitating others?
Qin Huaiyu shook his head and said, "The 'Shuo Wen Jie Zi' is indeed a rare masterpiece. However, in my opinion, it has a big flaw. That is, it pays too much attention to the origin of the words. It can't be quickly searched for. But the 'Dictionary' that I have proposed is a collection of words with the same pronunciation. If you only know the sound but not the word, you can search for it with the sound. If you only know the word but not the sound, you can search for it with the radical strokes. In the shortest time possible, you can search for the words that you don't know how to write or don't know the meaning of. How can it not be welcomed by all the students in the world? When the time comes, every student in the world will have a 'Dictionary'. Brother Kong's name will certainly spread throughout the Tang dynasty." Qin Huaiyu said proudly.
Hearing this, Kong Huisuo's heart suddenly surged and his blood boiled.
"Wonderful! This plan is exactly in line with Brother Mo's idea of the common people's daily use. It is very promising! "Zu Mingjun repeatedly agreed. Compulsory education was to enlighten children. In the process of learning, everyone would naturally encounter words that they didn't know. Since everyone needed to use it, there was no need to worry about the 'Dictionary' not being able to spread.
"Congratulations, Brother Kong!" Everyone congratulated him.
However, Kong Huisuo didn't get carried away. Instead, he pondered and said, "Listening to you is better than reading books for ten years. Although I have little talent and knowledge, I can still organize all the words in the world. Moreover, not only can I do it, but I think it won't be difficult for Brother Qin to do it as well. I wonder why Brother Qin gave this good plan to me."
It was indeed not difficult to collect all the words in the world. As long as there were enough people and time, it would certainly be completed. Even if Qin Huaiyu didn't do it himself, it would be easy for him to invite a few teachers.
Qin Huaiyu and the other two looked at each other and laughed, "We brothers are all military people. It's not appropriate to make a 'Dictionary'. Besides, if we want to become famous, we have many ideas! This is just one of the simplest ones. "
"Many ideas?" Kong Huisuo and Zu Mingjun were shocked. If it was before, the two of them would have thought that Qin Huaiyu was boasting. However, with the 'Dictionary' in front of them, the two of them couldn't help but believe it.
"That's right. Back then, the three of us and Brother Mo talked about the past and the present. We were determined to leave our names in history. We thought of countless good plans. Unfortunately, the hot air balloon we chose failed at the last moment. Who would have thought that in less than two years, we could reach the sky and seize the moon. It really made us regret for the rest of our lives!" Qin Huaiyu beat his chest and sighed regretfully.
Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baolin also looked like they had nothing to live for. If the hot air balloon hadn't been taken away by Li Shimin, it would have been the three of them riding the hot air balloon. How cool would that be? Wouldn't it have directly crushed all the playboys in Chang 'an?
That's right. The three of them didn't regret searching for the immortal's place, but missing an opportunity to be in the limelight.
Kong Huisuo couldn't help but be silent. Although he was very interested in the proposal of the 'Dictionary', this proposal was, after all, made by Meton. If he rashly adopted it, he was afraid that it would be somewhat inappropriate.
"What's wrong? Do you think it's too small? There are other ideas. There are so many medicinal herbs in the world. If there is a medical dictionary that records all the medicinal herbs and prescriptions in the world, what do you think? If it's still not enough, there are countless animals and plants in the world, and all of them are recorded and classified … "Qin Huaiyu opened his mouth and said a series of plans to leave their names in history. Zu Mingjun and Kong Huisuo couldn't help but be stunned.
Zu Mingjun couldn't help but be speechless. What were the four of them doing together? However, if someone could really do it, it wasn't impossible for them to leave their names in history.
Kong Huisuo couldn't help but smile bitterly. In comparison, the workload of the dictionary could be said to be the smallest, and it was also the easiest to produce results.
"Brother Kong, I understand your concerns. However, Mo Hospital was founded by the School of Mo, and the compulsory education came from the School of Mo. In the end, it was adopted by Teacher Li and the school of mathematics. Brother Kong, if you are too obsessed with the view of sects, and continue to let the world benefit from the dictionary continue to be covered in dust, how can you be a sage?" Zu Mingjun said seriously.
Kong Huisuo continued to change his mind. Finally, he took a deep breath and said, "I've made a fool of myself in front of you, brothers. I'm ashamed to accept it."
"That's right. We brothers have nothing to hide. In the future, the six of us will definitely be famous in the Tang dynasty." Qin Huaiyu laughed and said proudly.
"Not only that, once Brother Kong's' Dictionary 'is compiled, the Headmaster Academy and the schools under its name will definitely have priority to order a batch of it." Zu Mingjun made a decision. He still had this bit of power in the Headmaster Academy, and the 'Dictionary' was indeed a good enlightenment material.
"Thank you very much!" Kong Huisuo solemnly bowed.
