"Are these officials suffering from some serious illness?" Du Tong said angrily, stroking his beard.
Although he had already retreated back to his mansion, he still felt angry when he thought about the situation in the morning.
As a scholar, he is very aware of the importance of literacy and reading.
Will other officials in the DPRK and China be confused?
They must know!
However, out of various selfish motives, they actually think this is a very bad thing!
He can understand it, but he can't bear it!
Literacy and reading are a path to advancement for everyone, whether ordinary people or soldiers in the army.
If they cut off other people's path to advancement, aren't these officials afraid of other people's ancestors asking for their dreams in the middle of the night?
He is afraid anyway!
He would never just watch something like this happen.
Du Fengju's dark eyes were full of smiles, and he watched his father jump and curse with great interest.
My father has always been calm and collected, giving people a sense of purity and elegance.
It's extremely rare to feel so angry like this...
It can be seen that the behavior of officials in the DPRK and China has touched my father's bottom line.
No wonder my father couldn't help but curse in front of the emperor in the Xuanzheng Palace.
According to him, those officials indeed deserve to be scolded!
He was afraid that his father would be angry, so he said, "Father, they are not seriously ill, they just have selfish motives."
He could understand the thoughts of those officials very well.
Princess Changding's move has touched the interests of the civil servants in the DPRK and China. They will be afraid and stop her. This is normal.
However, they still don't understand their father.
Father often impeached Concubine Jiang, but it did not mean that his father would impeach Concubine Jiang for all matters related to Concubine Jiang.
Isn’t it hard to understand that it’s not the right thing to do with the person?
He actually asked his father to speak out against Princess Changding. Wasn't this an intentional move to tease the tiger's beard?
It is equivalent to helping Princess Changding in reverse.
If his father had not been punished, maybe the emperor would have issued an order prohibiting Princess Changding's practice.
How could it be like now, the default.
It is said that one knows the elegant meaning of a stringed song, but the emperor did not say anything, which is tantamount to supporting it.
As my father said in the Xuanzheng Hall, if the soldiers are literate and read, it will benefit the country without any harm, and it is the best policy for the country.
As long as you are not a fool, you can understand this truth.
Therefore, after his father scolded him in public, the emperor woke up even though he had been confused for a while.
Du Fengju believed that if the country had this condition, the emperor would make all the soldiers of the Sixteenth Guards in the world literate.
But this is impossible to do. The country spends a lot of money just to raise these soldiers. Where can the state treasury have money for the soldiers to learn to read?
There are very few people with such power and financial resources.
And the first person to do this turned out to be Princess Changding!
A person who is arrogant and domineering in the eyes of others.
When he learned about this, Du Fengju was not as surprised as others, but instead:
Well, it is indeed something that she can do.
Although he had only met Princess Changding twice, he was really not surprised by this.
That person of hers...is really not the kind of person who would do things according to common sense.
So, why not let Chang Ding rate soldiers be literate and read?
More importantly, she can do it.
Du Fengju narrowed his eyes and told the news that Pei Yanshan had heard: "Father, I heard that His Highness Changding has also formulated rewards and punishments. Soldiers who can pass the assessment will be rewarded one tael of silver per month."
Du Tong paused while twirling his beard, and then said: "Princess Changding's Mansion is really rich."
Provide support for two thousand people to be literate and study, and also reward them with extra money?
He couldn't help but worry: Even if the Jiang family was the richest man, how long could it last for her to squander?
However, if he didn't do this, based on his understanding of the soldiers in the army, not many people would be able to persevere.
Learning to read and read is a good thing, but it is also really hard work.
The soldiers usually train hard. If there are not enough benefits to tempt them, how can they move?
Then, he added: "She is the only person in the dynasty who can do this."
Among the princes and princesses, the only ones who have command of the mansion are His Highness the Crown Prince and her.
The prince is the crown prince of the country, and every move he makes represents the future direction of the country. The impact it brings is too great, so it is better to be quiet than to move.
Then, there is only Princess Changding.
Du Fengju agreed with his father's statement, but still said: "Although this is the case, to really achieve this, courage and vision are essential."
Princess Changding is indeed capable of doing this, but it does not mean that she must do so.
Since she did it, she must have thought it over carefully.
After all, the money to support two thousand people with literacy did not come from strong winds.
If she is really a pampered and savage princess, what can she do with the money?
But it was used to educate soldiers, and it was impeached by the courtiers, who were considered to have ulterior motives.
This is too unfair.
There are some things that people who have done them won’t say, or don’t bother to say, but that doesn’t mean that others can’t understand.
On this matter, Du Fengju still wanted to say something for Princess Changding.
Du Tong listened and said after a while: "That's right."
Immediately, he thought of something and nodded: "It seems that your previous guess was correct. Jiang family, this is the appearance of an expert!"
Until now, Du Tong believed that this was not what Princess Changding wanted to do, but that someone from the Jiang family was guiding her.
I have to admit, this handwriting is so beautiful!
As a tutor, Du Tong taught and assisted the emperor, so he could better understand what it meant for soldiers to be literate and read.
If they are successful in studying, even if it is only a very small group, it will be a great blessing for the country.
Civil servants are like a river of stars, and generals are like a curtain of rain.
In his lifetime, could he see such a prosperous scene?
Du Tong didn't know who the master behind Princess Changding was, but by doing this, Princess Changding obviously recognized the guidance of this master.
In other words, Concubine Jiang and her family do have such an outstanding and long-term vision.
It doesn’t matter whether they are fighting for power or for something else. In the end, it will be of great benefit to the country and the dynasty.
He went over and really made a mistake.
If he had known that Princess Changding leaving the palace and opening a palace would bring such great benefits to the country, he would not have bothered to stop it before.
I wish she could leave the palace and open a mansion as soon as possible!
As keen as Du Tong, of course he could detect the changes in the Jiang family, which only appeared after Princess Changding left the palace and opened her mansion.
In other words, the expert who pointed out the Jiang family only appeared next to the Jiang family at this time.
Du Fengju thought so too, so he decided to ask Wei Yan to check on some people who had come to Jingzhao recently.
Some old monsters who live in seclusion in the mountains, but occasionally appear in the world.
Did the transformation of the Jiang family come from the guidance of someone among them?
Zheng Ji didn't know that Mrs. Du's perception of her had changed drastically, and she was very unhappy at the moment.
Song Zan actually came to see him again.
He actually has the nerve to come? What is he here for?
