During his teaching, Fan Zhongyan was proficient in the Six Classics, especially in the Book of Changes, and scholars often questioned him. "For the interpretation of scripture, I am tired of death. Try pushing it to eat the square. " "I am studying in Fu Xue and urging my disciples; Teaching art and literature without leaving home; Being poor alone, the trip to Confucianism can be called. " "In the public taste of learning, Ji scholars have statutes and are diligent and respectful." Fan Zhongyan's tireless teaching and exemplary behavior are amazing.

At that time, other famous lecturers were Wang Zhu and Ying Ji. They were well-read, ambitious in teaching, well-educated and made outstanding achievements.

Fan Zhongyan was born in poverty, so he cares about the poor. Before entering school, Sun Fu, a student of Taishan Mountain in Shandong Province, came to Tianfu from Shandong Province to ask Fan Zhongyan for help. He donated money and gave him 1000 yuan. A year later, Sun Fu asked for help again, and Fan Zhongyan gave another thousand dollars. Fan Zhongyan didn't look like a beggar and asked him why he "missed his studies by taking the road" every year. Sun Fu said angrily, "My mother can't support the elderly. If she gets a hundred dollars a day, that's enough. " Fan Zhongyan said: "I can earn 3,000 yuan a month to support my son. Can you be satisfied with your study? " Sun Fu was overjoyed, so he studied all night and resumed school. Fan Zhongyan likes him very much. Later, Fan Zhongyan was reinstated after his term of office, and Sun Fu went to serve. In the first year of Jingzuo (1034), Sun Fu ranked fourth in the imperial examination. Through the introduction of Yuncheng literati Zhong Jian, Sun Fu got to know Shi Jie. Shi Jie built a room on Mount Tai, invited Sun Fu to give lectures, and served Sun Fu with Dong Zhang and other disciples.

Sun Fu lived in Mount Tai for 8 years, mainly engaged in the study of Confucian classics and giving lectures. He wrote 64 pieces of Yi Shuo and Wang Zun Fa Wei in the Spring and Autumn Period 12, and his fame gradually became apparent in the world.

1042, on the recommendation of Fan Zhongyan, Shijie and others, Sun Fubai was appointed as a provincial school bookkeeper and secretary of imperial academy. Together with Shijie, he actively supported Fan Zhongyan and others' idea of "retro persuasion". Imperial academy implemented measures such as limiting the number of students and expanding the number of students admitted to imperial academy, which led to a sudden increase in the number of students and a prosperous situation in imperial academy in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Sun Fu is diligent in studying, learning the way of Zhou and learning the way of Confucius. First, I pursued the imperial examination fame, and then I studied knowledge and gave lectures, so I was not married at the age of 40. Li Jue, then prime minister, knew Sun Fu's character and knowledge, so he betrothed his niece to him. Li Jue was a famous minister in the period of He Renzong, with a prominent position, outstanding political achievements and decent manners. He married his niece, Sun Fu, to increase his reputation and make the world know more about Sun Fu's sage. Sun Fu's knowledge and behavior soon spread all over the world. Daofu Kong, a descendant of Confucius, is a famous scholar in Longtuge. He also visited Sun Fu. During the visit, Shi Jie stood on the left and right sides of Sun Fu. When holding a ceremony, he will support him by raising or lowering his worship, and the same is true when thanking Daofu Kong. The Taishan Academy hosted by Sun Fu was an unprecedented event and became the center of academic activities at that time. Sun Fu's fame attracted the attention of some ministers of the dynasty, such as Fan Zhongyan and Fu Bi. He was appointed as the minister of provincial studies, and imperial academy spoke directly. From this, Fan Zhongyan can't help but say with emotion that poverty is really a terrible disaster. If Sun Fu had been begging until he was old, this outstanding talent would not have drowned!

When Fan Zhongyan was teaching, he was sorting out the style of study. The first is the school spirit of respecting teachers and valuing morality. Fan Zhongyan personally demonstrated that it was always his favorite pupil who recommended to Yan Shu, and at the same time, he tried his best to retain the learned teacher. When Wang Zhu, a famous Confucian scholar, was a professor at Yingtian Academy, Fan Zhongyan stayed in Yan Shu to write to Song Renzong, and Wang Zhu continued to give lectures at the Academy.

Under the influence of Fan Zhongyan, students pay more attention to rigorous scholarship, and seek more original intention in the study of Confucian classics than annotations. Yingtian Academy, under the auspices of Fan Zhongyan, has become one of the four major academies in China.

Yan Shu wrote to the imperial court in Taking the Form of Fan Zhongyan, saying that Fan Zhongyan's "trip to a lonely and poor scholar is really called it" and requested the imperial court to reuse it. /kloc-in the winter of 0/028, Fan Zhongyan was promoted to the central government as the school supervisor because of his outstanding school performance, and left Yingtianfu. Fan Zhongyan was in charge of Yingtian Academy for only three years, but he set a brilliant example for advocating learning in the Northern Song Dynasty. The influence of "there is no way in the world, follow it" lasted for several generations.

1035, Yingtian Academy was changed into an official school, with a school field 10 hectare. 1043, Yingtian Academy was upgraded to imperial academy. 1502, the Yellow River flooded, and Guidefucheng deposited underground, and Yingtian Academy was also buried.

In 15 1 1 year, it is well known that Yang Taiyou built a new city in the north of the old city. In the same year, as we all know, Zhou Mian completed in, Guide House moved to the new city, which is now the ancient city of Shangqiu, and Yingtian Academy also moved to the city. Liu Xin, the latter prefecture, built three gates and three instruments, five Dacheng Hall and Minglun Hall, and 60 left and right fasting halls here. Dacheng Hall has memorial tablets of Confucius and his disciples, and it is a place where Confucius is worshipped. Mingluntang is a school and a place for students to take exams.

153 1 year, Ming Xun rebuilt the social school built by Zhou Zhi in the northwest corner of Shangqiu city according to Ai Cai's suggestion, and continued to use the old name "Yingtian Academy". But soon, Prime Minister Zhang ordered the demolition of all the academies in the world at 1579, and Yingtian Academy failed to escape this robbery.

160 1 year, Zheng Sanjun, the magistrate of Guide, rebuilt the "Fan Wenzheng Public Lecture Institute" in Guide House. He imitated Fan Zhongyan's spirit, gave lectures in person, and trained many outstanding talents at one time, such as Guan Zhi's Shangshu, Hou Ke's, Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War Ye Tinggui, and Jian Guoguo, all of whom were commended by Zheng. They have Fan Zhongyan's lofty spirit, lofty ambition and quiet for the officials. In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, Suiyang was not in the Yellow River, the city site moved northward, and the original site of the lecture hall was gone. Wu Ming Qing Li.

165 1 year, Fan Wenzheng bus station resumed, and Hou Fangyu wrote "Rebuilding the Inscription of Academy".

1674, the county magistrate Min built another academy and invited famous teachers to teach. "There is a wind of alcohol Confucianism, and scholars live alone." In the twentieth year of Kangxi (168 1), Zhao Shenqiao, a magistrate of a county, expanded the Yi-ology school and named it Yingtian Academy.

1748, the magistrate Chen Xige rebuilt Yingtian Academy. 190 1 year, the imperial court abolished the imperial examination and promoted the academy, and ordered the provincial academies to be changed into university academies, the state academies, provincial academies and zhili academies to be middle schools, and the county academies to be primary schools.

1In August, 905, Fanwenzheng Gongjiao College was renamed as "Guidefu Middle School". At this point, Yingtian Academy has completed its historical mission.
