"The Master said: Isn't it a saying to learn and practice it from time to time? Isn't it a pleasure to have friends coming from afar? People don't know and don't be angry, aren't they a gentleman?

A scholar said: It is rare for a person to be a filial piety and brother, but he likes to offend the superior; it is never possible for a person to be aware of the superior and he likes to cause chaos. A gentleman is concerned about the foundation, and the foundation is established and the way is born. What is the foundation of a person?”

The sound of reading came from the Duke's mansion. An old man stood on the stage. Yang Tian was carrying Yang Ying below, and he was shaking his head with two little radish heads. Yang Tian has now learned that Pu Liuru had to give Duke Sui's surname to Duke Sui. Duke Sui's surname was actually Yang, a Han Chinese, and his mother was a Xianbei.

After learning about this, Yang Tian felt relieved inexplicably. It turned out that according to his father's bloodline, he was still a Han Chinese. Although his second brother Amo believed that Pu Liuru was the noble surname and Yang was the humble nature of the Han people, in fact, everyone in the Duke's mansion knew that the Duke's man liked his surname Yang, but not the Xianbei people. Yang Tian deeply agreed. That day in front of him, his father called himself Yang Jian instead of Pu Liurujian.

Yang Jian and Yang Tian vaguely felt that the name was very familiar, but he didn't dare to think about it, so he had to put it aside for the time being.

It is April of the fifth year of Jiande in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and Yang Tian's health has been better for more than half a month. When Yang Jian came back from court that day, Yang Tian asked him to borrow a study room to see it. Yang Jian asked him strangely why he didn't find a master if he wanted to read the book. Yang Tian learned that not only had a study room for the Duke's Mansion for their brothers, but also a master was teaching them their studies. When he asked Axiang that he was going to the Duke's study room, Axiang thought he was going to get something from his father's room and didn't dare to take him there.

In fact, there were many books in Yang Tianfang, but Yang Jian ordered them all to move out that day. After knowing where to find books, Yang Tian immediately looked through the study every day, and finally basically figured out his current situation.

During the Battle of Feishui, the Former Qin Dynasty collapsed, and the Xianbei Tuoba tribe took the opportunity to establish the Northern Wei Dynasty. After decades, the Northern Wei unified the north and formed the Southern and Northern Dynasties with the courts in the south.

The Northern Wei Dynasty experienced fourteen emperors, a total of 149 years. In the third year of Emperor Xiaowu of Wei, the general Gao Huan rebelled. Emperor Xiaowu of Wei was defeated and fled to Chang'an to join his general Yuwen Tai. The Northern Wei split into the Western Wei and Eastern Wei. The Western Wei Yuwen Tai supported the grandson of Emperor Xiaowen as the emperor, and the Eastern Wei Dynasty, and Gao Huan supported the great-grandson of Emperor Xiaowen as the emperor.

The Western Wei Dynasty existed for twenty-five years. After Yuwen Tai's death, his son Yuwen Jue deposed Emperor Gong of Wei and established the Northern Zhou Dynasty. The Eastern Wei Dynasty existed for sixteen years. After Gao Huan's death, his son Gao Yang deposed Emperor Xiaojing of Eastern Wei and established the Northern Qi Dynasty.

After the split, the Eastern Wei Dynasty began to fight endlessly. The Eastern Wei Dynasty had vast areas of Hebei, Henan, Shandong, Shanxi, northern Jiangsu and northern Anhui, with strong soldiers and strong horses, and had the upper hand over the Western Wei Dynasty. Yuwen Tai was defeated several times and almost captured by Gao Huan.

After Qi and Zhou replaced the Eastern and Western Wei respectively, it was Zhou's turn to gain the upper hand. In the early years of Northern Qi, Emperor Gao Yang had a good relationship with the Western Wei, and concentrated his financial and material resources to fight the Northern Expedition of Rouran, Khitan, Goryeo and other countries, and they all won a great victory. Northern Qi's national strength reached its peak, but shortly after Gao Yang achieved his achievements, he became corrupt, ignored the government all day long, indulged in wine and sex, and his body quickly collapsed, and he died at the age of thirty-one.

After Gao Yang's death, the government of the Northern Qi Dynasty became even more chaotic. In just over twenty years, he served six emperors. Although the Northern Zhou Dynasty had powerful ministers in power, Yuwen Hu, Otsuka Yuwen Hu, deposed Emperor Xiaomin of Zhou and harmed Emperor Ming of Zhou, but the turmoil at the upper class did not affect the lower class, and the national strength was growing day by day. Now, Emperor Wu of Zhou succeeded to the throne, killed Yuwen Hu in one fell swoop and changed the era to Jiande.

After Emperor Wu of Zhou took power, he quickly showed his achievements in civil and military affairs. He abolished the old customs of Xianbei. He released slaves and abolished the two religions of Shidao, which greatly promoted production. In just five years, under his governance, the Northern Zhou Dynasty became stronger and the Northern Qi Dynasty was overwhelmed. Last year, Emperor Wu of Zhou personally led his troops to fight with the Northern Qi Dynasty. The Zhou army and the Qi army won a great victory in several battles, and they were in a great momentum to unify the north.

Although Yang Tian was looking through history, he saw a strong smell of blood from it. Zhou and Qi had only been established for more than 20 years. During this period, the monarchs were changed several times and they fought endlessly. What is interesting is that the monarch of Qi was a Han Chinese, but it had become Xianbei. His national policy continued the Xianbei policy. The status of the Han Chinese in China was like a pig or a dog. The monarch of Zhou was a Xianbei, but it had become a sinic person. Many high-ranking officials of Han people were in the court, and although the Han people under their rule could not be equated with Xianbei, they could live and work in peace.

The Chinese people claim to have a history of 5,000 years, but there are very few people who can remember all dynasties. Most people can only say the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. They are blinded by the history before the Tang Dynasty. Perhaps they can still know that the Three Kingdoms are derived from novels and TV, and they are definitely not history. Unfortunately, Yang Tian is also one of them. He knows nothing about history like the Northern Wei and Northern Zhou, and now he has read it for the first time. He does not know if the history he reads is consistent with the history of his time. The chronology of the emperors in it is dazzling and does not match the historical dates he knows.

After Yang Tian rummaging through the study for several days, his husband finally found him and asked him to start classes. Zhou State's official school stipulated that the children of officials over the age of fourteen were recruiting children of officials at home. Before that, most of them hired teachers to teach at home. The Xianbei people paid attention to military merits. Yang Yong's grandfather Yang Zhong did not have much chance to go to school, but was the most trusted general of the Emperor Taizu of Northern Zhou, Yu Wen Tai. His father Yang Jian was fostered in a nunnery since he was a child. It was not until Yang Jian was thirteen that he was taken away by Yang Zhong and started going to school.

Of course, Yang Tian still doesn't know about these things for the time being. He could only secretly complain in his heart that he wanted to learn these Four Books and Five Classics.

Due to the sinicization of the Xianbei people, Emperor Wu of Zhou attaches great importance to the academic studies of the nobles and stipulates that six schools are the imperial relatives and nobles, senior officials, the children of meritorious officials, the descendants of officials above the third rank and above the fifth rank and above the Imperial College, and the children of officials above the eighth and ninth rank and above the fourth rank and other schools.

These schools are all official, not only free of tuition, but also provide food and accommodation. The quota should be limited and the entrance examination must be conducted. If you fail to pass the exam or fail to graduate, it will have a great impact on your future.

Yang Jian was taken to his father at the age of thirteen. His foundation was too poor and his studies were not good. It was just because his father's military merits were very fast, which caused many noble children to discuss. Therefore, Yang Jian attached great importance to his son's studies. Yang Yong started enlightenment teaching at the age of six. Now Yang Ying also studied with this old master, but people cannot compare with him. Yang Yong has been studying with the old master for three years, and Yang Ying has only been studying for a year. Now Yang Ying's studies are better than Yang Yong, which is also the reason why Yang Ying is loved by the Yang couple.

Now Yang Yong has been replaced by Yang Tian, ​​and his academic performance is not as good as Yang Yong. In order to clarify his situation, he has a headache when reading the vertical traditional Chinese characters when flipping history books. Now he not only needs to read, but also read and write.
