"knew."
Ye Xianggao, who was writing on rice paper, only replied lightly.
Ye Chuchun was surprised to see this. He didn't expect Ye Xianggao to be so calm.
Ye Xianggao did not write anymore, but sat on a chair on the side and reached out to pick up the tea cup on the coffee table.
But Ye Xianggao only took a sip and suddenly dropped the tea cup to the ground.
boom!
The teacup was shattered on the floor, and the tea leaves flowed onto the carpet along with the water.
The maid was so frightened that she knelt down.
Ye Xianggao suddenly shouted: "Why is the tea cold? Get me out!"
"Master, please calm down! Master, please calm down!"
The maid began to beg and panic.
At this time, Ye Chuchun was also frightened by Ye Xianggao's behavior. In his impression, Ye Xianggao would not be angry because the tea was cold, and he remembered that Ye Xianggao was afraid that the maid would disturb him when he was writing, so he took the initiative. Let the maid come in to change the tea.
Ye Xianggao didn't say anything and just came back outside the house.
Ye Chuchun also followed: "Mr. Ge!"
"I heard that the king has recently been under the supervision of your majesty. It seems that your majesty is a good brother!"
Ye Xianggao suddenly said this at this time.
"Why did Mr. Ge suddenly talk about this?"
Ye Chuchun asked quite alertly and looked around.
Ye Xianggao suddenly said at this moment: "It seems that King Xin can't be counted on. What do you think of King Fu?"
Ye Xianggao said and looked at Ye Chuchun.
Ye Chuchun was even more surprised after hearing this, and couldn't help but said nervously: "Old Ge, be careful! This matter can only be discussed in the long term! Besides, we had offended King Fu quite a lot during the dispute over the country."
"It's one moment and the other. It's a bit difficult to think about it in the long term now. No one knows what will happen next."
Ye Xianggao said something.
"What does Mr. Ge mean?"
Ye Chuchun asked.
"Now it's just Nanzhili, but if Qingzhang Tianmu is really going to be implemented, it won't be just the scholars and some nobles who will be unhappy. The sects and vassals will also be unhappy. If they stop here, they will pay back. If they don't stop, We can only change for a new day!”
Although Ye Xianggao said this in a very calm tone, Ye Chuchun was so horrified that he didn't come back to his senses for a while.
"You'd better go to Henan to inquire. Not only King Fu, but other feudal princes will also inquire."
Ye Xianggao said something.
…
"The matter of clearing the husband's land is not suitable to be extended to other places for the time being. In my opinion, you must first have the power before you can do it. First, there are too few people available to the court. Nowadays, most scholars are cultivated by private schools, and There are few scholars cultivated by official schools, and there is even a tendency to emphasize private studies over official studies. Private schools are not controlled by the court, but only by local rural gentry families. The scholars they cultivate will naturally speak for local rural gentry families, and even if there are If wealthy businessmen invest in building academies to cultivate scholars, the scholars will only speak for the businessmen;
Second, although His Majesty already has personal troops such as the Habayashi Guards, the number is still not large enough for His Majesty to control the entire world. "
In the Political Affairs Hall, Fang Congzhe put forward his own opinions on Wang Yingjiao's suggestion to continue the land clearing in other chief secretaries.
Although Fang Congzhe did not hesitate to kill his political opponents in court struggles, he was more moderate on specific reform matters than some ministers who supported reforms and eliminated shortcomings, and did not agree with their immediate implementation.
Zhu Youxiao naturally agreed with Fang Congzhe's point of view.
Because he also knew that reforms would only be carried out in southern Zhili, he could win over the northern military landlords and some ministers in the DPRK to complete the matter.
But for the entire world, if he wants to carry out drastic reforms, he needs the support of more people and greater power.
Therefore, Zhu Youxiao also said at this time: "What Yuan Fu said is absolutely true. Whether it is to train a large number of officials who can work hard for the court or to continue to strengthen the pro-army, it will take time and more money. , and naturally this money can no longer be forcibly collected from the domestic scholars and people, and we must continue to use innovative techniques and external profit-making methods. However, the money matter can be taken slowly at the moment. After all, the taxes and confiscated taxes collected in Nanzhili are There are still a lot of unused assets. Now that the Pseudo-Confucius clan in Qufu has been confiscated, the treasury is still very full. Therefore, the top priority now is to establish an official school and train soldiers and horses. I will take care of the military affairs myself, and establish an official school. I want Yuan Fu to do the hard work for me, so that Yuan Fu can cultivate a large number of scholars who truly serve the country and the people for the imperial court. I immediately drafted an edict and asked the cabinet to work with the Ministry of Rites to reform the academic and political etiquette system in the world. Qufu and Tianjin The Ministry of Rites is directly responsible for the reform in local and other imperial villages, while in other places, the governors of various regions oversee the matter, and the Tixue envoys are specifically responsible for it."
"I obey the decree!"
Fang Congzhe replied.
"As for the reform of academic affairs and etiquette, I will first put forward some requirements. Yuanfu will discuss it with the cabinet and ministers of the Ministry of Rites and then implement it. First of all, as Yuanfu said, all schools in the world should have the official The Holy Statue of the Son of Heaven needs to be worshiped on every important day such as the Enrollment Day and Longevity Festival. In order to make it clear to the people of the world and let them gain wisdom and know the etiquette, I am the first one. As for the ancient saints, they are just members of the same family. Master, how can the teacher's kindness be more important than the emperor's kindness?
Secondly, we need to increase the number of official schools, make social schools prosperous, and allow more children of the common people to have the opportunity to enter school for enlightenment. Next, I will allocate more money and food, and even let the local governments retain part of the tax revenue for use. For academic studies, but the money used for academic studies must be used to prosper social studies in rural areas. For example, in wealthy places, social studies can be exempted from study, and the government may even provide incentives and subsidies to outstanding children from poor families who are willing to enter school. Rather than letting local wealthy gentry do this, in addition, in order to encourage some scholars who are not interested in fame and education to educate peasants in social studies, instead of working as teachers in the families of wealthy officials, we should grant certain grades of official status to social studies teachers. It also provides some conveniences for the imperial examinations, such as adding a quota for the college examination, rural examination, and general examination, specifically to admit scholars who are willing to educate children in rural social studies. "
After Zhu Youxiao said that, he added: "Everyone who enters the social studies in Huangzhuang, Qufu and Tianjin will be exempted from studying and will be given a lunch. All the gentlemen recruited will be given the official title of Wen Linlang, and an official of Social Science and Learning will be set up. This will be from the eighth rank, and will be archived by the Ministry of Personnel. They will be selected as edicts, professors, and even Imperial College officials and academic envoys in the future, and all the money and food will be needed. It comes from my inner treasury."
Since Huangzhuang, Qufu, and Tianjin are now equivalent to Zhu Youxiao's private territory, he, the emperor, can directly carry out educational reforms in these three places and cultivate the talent resources he needs. Of course, with Zhu Youxiao's In terms of financial resources, he can only revitalize education in his own private territory first, and do so directly across the country. Even if his internal funds are doubled, it will not be enough.
Therefore, for other places, Zhu Youxiao asked the cabinet, together with the Ministry of Rites and the governors of each province, to act according to their ability. Wealthy provinces can also directly provide preferential treatment to gentlemen who teach in social studies, free tuition for Confucian students who enter school, and even If one or even two meals are included, but the situation is not rich, the government will subsidize less.
However, Zhu You's school committee will conduct examinations for the governors and academic envoys of each province based on the establishment of social studies in each province.
Therefore, Zhu Youxiao is not worried that these local officials are not active in studying.
"What?! Your Majesty wants all the schools in the world to no longer hang the image of the Holy Master, but the image of the Emperor, and also to formulate the etiquette for worshiping the emperor in each school?"
After Fang Congzhe got Zhu Youxiao's order, he immediately held a court discussion on the reform of academic affairs and etiquette with the cabinet ministers and officials of the Ministry of Rites. For this reason, Sun Ruyou, the Minister of Rites, listened to Fang Congzhe's relay of the emperor's holy will. He stood up in surprise.
"Why, doesn't Uncle Zong think that when people in the world study, they should be more loyal to the emperor than to respect their teachers?"
Fang Congzhe asked.
"Xiaguan didn't have this intention. He just felt that it has been a long-standing practice that people in the world must first worship the Holy Master before entering school. Now it is too abrupt to suddenly change to worship the emperor. What's more, this place of study is not What the court needs is a place to practice the teachings of the saints, not a place to worship the emperor."
Sun Ruyi started talking.
"Then it seems that in the eyes of Uncle Zong, the king is not worthy of appearing in the place where he studies, but only the Holy Saint?! It seems that Uncle Zong has no emperor in his heart and no loyalty! Come, prepare a sedan chair! The servant will tell this matter Your Majesty! Punish this disloyal minister!"
Fang Congzhe did not continue to persuade Sun Ruyou and directly threatened to go to the emperor to accuse Sun Ruyou.
Seeing this, Sun Ruyou couldn't help but think of Zheng Sanjun's fate, and said hurriedly: "Yuanfu, wait a minute! The official didn't mean this, but the official suddenly felt that this move was very wise! How can respecting a teacher be more important than being loyal to the emperor? Every school should hang a statue of the emperor. , instead of hanging the image of a saint, not to mention that if there are three people walking together, there must be my teacher. There are many teachers of scholars. In the past, it was really inappropriate to only hang the image of the most holy teacher, which seemed to respect only one of them. "
As Sun Ruyou spoke, he wiped the cold sweat from his head and laughed.
Fang Congzhe smiled slightly when he saw this and looked at the other officials: "Where are you gentlemen, who supports this proposal and who has objections to it?"
Han Xu, Wang Xiangqian, and the left and right ministers of the Ministry of Rites all looked at each other, then stood up and replied: "We have no objection, this is good governance! Implement it immediately!"
