I don't know why, when the leaders of the Ancient Literature School held a meeting to discuss this issue, while they were happy, there was also a feeling of sadness lingering in their hearts.
In the final analysis, the ancient literature school did win, but apart from gaining momentum, the school gained few actual benefits.
The Yuan family and some families who had a good impression of the Yuan family were looking forward to the Yuan family's children and wanted to see if the Yuan family's children could become famous, but it turned out that they did not.
Although Yuan Shao had merit, he did not win the battle. Yuan Wei tried hard for a while and then gave up.
Now the good news is that Emperor Liu Hong plans to adopt the strategy proposed by Lu Zhi before and recruit the Bingzhou Bandits and Southern Huns again, preparing to recruit them and use political means rather than military means to deal with them. .
In this regard, Lu Zhi expressed support, but Huang Wan continued to fight as expected and continued to oppose Lu Zhi.
But this time Liu Hong ignored Huang Wan, insisted on adopting Lu Zhi's strategy, and discussed with Lu Zhi the specific recruitment strategy.
Among Liu Bei and Lu Zhi's suggestions, Liu Hong originally preferred Liu Bei's suggestion, but when he asked Lu Zhi, Lu Zhi thought that it could not be so simple to let the Bingzhou bandits have an easy time.
We must plant nails for their internal instability, otherwise if things go on like this, the Bingzhou bandit climate will become serious.
If Zhang Yan's position is stable and he wants to cause chaos in the future, the court will be in a dilemma.
"But what if the thieves become angry and refuse to accept the offer and continue to cause chaos?"
Liu Hong asked Lu Zhi this way.
Lu Zhi thought for a while.
"The thieves may not become angry. Even if the bandits become angry, the imperial court's arrangements in Hedong County will not be revoked in the short term. The thieves will retreat when they see the imperial garrison. If there is really a big problem, please bring me with you." Send troops north to personally quell the trouble for Your Majesty."
Liu Hong thought about it, remembered Liu Bei's warning, and looked at Lu Zhi's words in front of him. He gritted his teeth and agreed to Lu Zhi's approach.
When the news came out, Huang Wan was worried about it.
Yuan Wei also became more and more anxious and worried about this.
The atmosphere in Luoyang City seems calm, but in fact there is an undercurrent, and many people don't know how the situation will develop next.
The weird atmosphere in Luoyang City cannot affect Liu Bei who has returned to Liangzhou.
After returning to Liangzhou, Liu Bei arranged for more than 30 Luoyang scholars, including Xun You, to be assigned to various departments to "observe the government" according to their respective specialties.
That is to say, they are given three months to follow and study, and then they are assessed and arranged.
Xun You didn't have any complaints and directly devoted himself to the work of observing politics.
And this is just a small episode. The biggest thing Liu Bei has to do when he returns this time is to establish Liangzhou Prefecture School in Hebei County.
On October 29, the fourth year of Zhongping, Liu Bei officially announced that he would establish Liangzhou Prefecture School in Ji County, and he would personally serve as a doctor of prefecture school and recruit students from the ten counties and two vassal states of Liangzhou to study in Liangzhou Prefecture School. All students can be disciples of the Liu family.
As soon as the news came out, Liangzhou was shocked.
For the people of Liangzhou, Liu Bei himself is an extremely valuable resource with fatal temptation.
Even when he had not received the formal inheritance of Zuo's Spring and Autumn Period, he was still so attractive, but at that time he could not open a school and teach disciples in a serious way. He could only draw cakes for others and use his own The future is exchanged for the current resources in people's hands.
But at this moment, he is no longer the Liu Bei who has not achieved perfection.
He is already perfect.
He has the inheritance of Zuo's Spring and Autumn Period. Even if he is no longer an official, even if he does not have an official position and is white, with this status, he can still make his favorite disciples qualified to be officials. His lower limit is already A ceiling that many people cannot reach in their lifetime.
Before, he had to rely on his official position, but now, he only needs to rely on himself. Even if he no longer has an official position, his academic status is unshakable.
He is who he is.
Therefore, every time this news spread to a place, the "insightful people" in that place began to stir up excitement, and they urged the young people in their families to rush to Ji County to study under Liu Bei. For fear of being too late, Liu Bei announced that the quota was full and he would not recruit. .
Then they will go crazy.
They would really go crazy if they lost a golden opportunity that took them many years to wait because they were slow.
Don't worry about whether the children in the family are of the right age, whether they are young children, teenagers, or young people, they all go to Ji County.
Even some older young men who were older than Liu Bei came to Hebei County to study as teachers with shameless faces.
It doesn't matter who the teacher is. We mainly want to learn knowledge. We definitely don't come here to learn because Liu Bei is a doctor in Zhouxue.
We are definitely not here for the reputation of Liu's disciples, we mainly want to learn knowledge.
However, they are simply overthinking this. This time, Liu Bei is prepared to take everything he deserves.
He will only set a relatively simple entry-level exam. If you pass this exam with reading and writing skills, you can enter the state school and obtain the status of Liu's disciple.
At this stage, the net is cast widely, with the focus on fishing at the back.
Because this is Liu Bei's state school, what to teach, how to teach, and how to set all the rules are all decided by Liu Bei himself. The more people come, the more people he can use in the future.
Therefore, after entering the state school, Liu Bei will first provide graded education according to the age of the students.
It would be too cumbersome to divide them specifically by age, so we will roughly divide them into three grades: kindergarten, juvenile, and youth.
Then we conduct a placement test for each of the three grades, and use a relatively difficult test paper to determine which of the students who come to study are educated and knowledgeable, and which are just reading and writing athletes.
Through this examination, elite classes and ordinary classes are distinguished and taught separately.
For the elite class, Liu Bei plans to provide normal education, because they have basically read books and have their own Confucian heritage. Their ideological fields are not blank, and it is not easy to intervene and change.
But relatively speaking, they also have the best cultural heritage and are the real cultural elites of Liangzhou. Although they are not as good as those in the Central Plains, they are still considered high-level intellectuals in Liangzhou. They should be educated in government affairs and given a certain degree of Zuo's Spring and Autumn Annals. Education, they are good reserve members of the bureaucracy.
As long as you can do things, the rest is not important.
Liu Bei doesn't pay much attention to the elite class. What he really values is the ordinary class.
Ordinary classes start with general education, teach them some basic knowledge and recharge their batteries, and then mainly educate them on culture and ideology.
The intervention in the ideological field is Liu Bei's plan to make the ordinary class different from the elite class.
Although these reading and writing players in the ordinary class do not have any ready-made knowledge, one good thing is that because they have not received a serious education, they are basically blank in the ideological field.
If people in the elite class regard Liu Bei as a wise man, then the reading and writing players in the ordinary class generally think that Liu Bei is a prophet.
They felt that Liu Bei was the absolute authority, and what he said was what he said. With a high degree of acceptance, Liu Bei could start with ideological education and instill his own thoughts into them.
This distinguished them from traditional Confucian scholars from the very beginning.
While holding on to their thoughts, they can then gradually teach them some more in-depth knowledge, such as literature, mathematics, astronomy, geography, agriculture, etc.
In this way, they will become Liu Bei's "own people" more thoroughly than those in the elite class.
