You are eight and already reading The
Thousand Character Classic by Confucius.
During the three or four years prior you
have been learning how to write. You are
also learning to fish, write poems, and
paint landscapes because that is
considered scholarly. You are working so
hard at your studies because you know
that in the Tang Dynasty, even though you
are not an aristocrat, you can test into a
government career.
