Chapter 589 The World of Great Rule(1/2)
"Teacher, you see, these are the few chapters I wrote based on my recent thoughts. Many of Huang Lao's problems have been easily solved by me. Look at this article, how thorough it is.
Huang Lao's School can be renamed Huang Laochang's School in the future. The three great sages, Huang Di, Lao Tzu, and I, Liu Chang..."
Liu Chang was sitting on his knees in front of the bed, holding a volume of books and talking happily.
The person on the bed is Gai Gong.
As he gets older, Gai Gong's condition becomes more and more serious. Now, he can no longer speak or stand up. He just lies there blankly. Looking at Liu Chang without saying a word, his expression becomes a little dull.
Drool could not help but flow from the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were numb.
The imperial doctors didn't know how long Gai Gong could hold on. He was already over ninety years old and had almost lost his perception of the outside world and his ability to be a human being. He could no longer recognize anyone or do anything.
Any reaction, and occasionally some meaningless tone, no one can understand what he is saying.
Liu Chang always comes to greet the teacher from time to time.
Although the imperial doctors told him, Gai Gong may not be able to hear your words, and even if he hears them, he may not be able to understand or understand your words.
But Liu Chang would still come and happily brag to the teacher.
"This article is called "Yuan Dao Xun", please listen..."
Liu Chang read the content of the article in his hand loudly. Lu Lu shook his head and turned around. The prince just dedicated this article to His Majesty yesterday, and today this article has become written by His Majesty... You are really fast.
Ah, even the biological sons will be robbed.
Liu Chang read this article, the more he read, the more proud he became, and his voice became louder and louder. Gai Gong just looked at him blankly, opening and closing his mouth slightly, as if he was saying something.
"How about it? The writing is really good? Hahaha, in my hands, this Huang Lao School will definitely develop to a whole new level. Teacher, there is no need to be too excited or to praise it so much!"
Liu Chang boasted for more than half an hour. When he saw the teacher closing his eyes and starting to snore, he got up and left with the article.
Lu Lu sighed with emotion: "Time flies. People who were so strong back then... are now bedridden and unaware of others..."
Liu Chang frowned and said nothing.
Lu Lu probably realized that he had said the wrong thing and hurriedly changed the subject, "However, Your Majesty, this is too much. Isn't this what the prince dedicated to you yesterday? How did it become what you wrote??"
Liu Chang coldly snorted, "Nonsense, I was the one who gave birth to An. If I hadn't given birth to him, how could he have written this? I gave him everything, so this article of his is also
Have my share!"
"His Highness has seemed to be a completely different person recently. He leads his disciples around all day long, writes new poems in Yuefu, debates with many doctors in Taixue, and leads his disciples to write articles..."
Liu Chang was a little displeased, "Yes, I originally thought that this guy would grow up quickly and leave everything to him. I don't know what Mr. Zhang said to this guy. He doesn't do any serious work now and spends all day doing it."
Just engage in some knowledge, poetry, etc., Prime Minister Zhang has led this guy astray!"
"Prime Minister Zhang must have his own ideas, right? With Prime Minister Zhang's talent and virtue, he will not lead His Highness astray..."
Lu Lu said cautiously, although Zhang Cang's character is flawed, he would definitely not do such a thing. Normally, it would be your Majesty who would do it.
The two chatted, got in the car, and returned to the palace.
Back in the Houde Hall, Liu Chang sat in front of the case and began to review the memorials. Yes, Liu Chang would come to review the memorials every day. However, these memorials were specially selected. Ordinary memorials would not be sent.
Those who come here are all memorials of local merit.
What achievements have been made in the local area, how much the harvest has increased, how much taxes have been raised, etc.
Liu Chang likes to review memorials like this. Today's Han Dynasty is making steady progress every year. Whether it is the area of cultivated land, grain production, or the living standards of the people, they are all improving year after year, and the results in various places are getting better and better.
It's extraordinary, these are the elder's achievements.
The elder’s greatest pleasure every day is to look at these achievements and indulge in the great
Han's growing sense of accomplishment.
Liu Chang sipped his tea and looked at the reports from various places with great pleasure. He watched the local grain production increase sharply, he watched someone say that there would be a bumper harvest this year, and then he watched the completion of the road construction reported by the temple... Nowadays, the achievements of the Han Dynasty in this year,
It is comparable to what was achieved in the past ten years or so during the reign of Emperor Gao.
Liu Chang couldn't help but sigh. Sure enough, when it comes to governing the world, you still have to look at yourself. Emperor Gao and Marquis Fou are far behind him.
Just as Liu Chang was reviewing the memorial, a person hurriedly walked into the Houde Hall.
The person who came was none other than Liu Ying. Liu Ying frowned and hurriedly walked to Liu Chang and sat directly in front of him. "Chang! Something big has happened!!"
Liu Chang was stunned and put down the memorial in his hand, "Second brother? What happened? Lu Chan was beaten to death??"
"No...it's An. You must discipline An, this brat!"
"What a good kid he was before, but now he stays in the Wuding Tower all day long, eating, drinking, having fun, not doing anything serious, and indulges in excessive sexual pleasures. He is still young, how can he be like this?"
Liu Ying frowned and said worriedly.
"This guy has been having fun in Wuding Tower for five days in a row. As an uncle, I can't go past you to reprimand him. It's best for you to step in and tell him not to behave like this again..."
Liu Chang glanced at him and said, "No wonder you are so anxious. It turns out that he has occupied your position for five days..."
"That's not the case. I'm just worried that if he indulges in sex at a young age, he will hurt his body..."
Liu Ying lowered her head a little lonely, "As the head of the clan, I spend all day playing. If the clan follows suit because of this, it will be my fault..."
Liu Ying looked a little guilty. He seemed to blame Liu An's changes during this period on himself, thinking that he was influenced by him.
Liu Chang put away the memorial in front of him, "Second brother, the reason An became like this is entirely because of you!!"
"As the elder of the clan, you go out all day to have fun, which has a very bad influence on the younger generations of the clan! Look, even An is addicted to Wuding Tower because of you. If you continue to do this
If you go down, won’t everyone after my Han clan become a libertine?”
"How unbecoming is this?"
Liu Ying was a little shocked. He sighed and shook his head, "It's all my fault. You have to discipline An well. I will never be so loose again in the future..."
Liu Chang's eyes flashed with joy. He didn't expect that he would have such an unexpected gain. The second brother was not in good health to begin with, and he did some not-so-good things all day long, which made his condition...
It was getting worse and worse, and Liu Chang tried to persuade her several times, but to no avail.
Unexpectedly, Liu An's playful behavior for a few days actually made his second brother regret it.
"An Na, I will tell you. Second brother, please go back. From now on, you must study more and indulge less in sexual activities. You must give the descendants of the clan a good start."
Liu Ying left Houde Hall with a look of shame on her face.
Liu Chang stroked his chin and continued to look at the memorial in front of him. This first official assessment was quite successful. Next, it will be promoted nationwide. In the future, officials from all over the country can be admitted through the assessment.
, can effectively break the monopoly of powerful people and solve the problem of insufficient officials.
There is no need to worry about the problem of officials now. In a long period of time, the Han Dynasty will not have the problem of insufficient officials. Then the next goal is to focus on enlightenment.
The current system of rural studies, county studies, Chinese studies, and Taixue in Han Dynasty still seems a bit too rough. Liu Chang wants to imitate the future and develop a system of primary schools, middle schools, and universities.
At present, there is no distinction between upper and lower levels in education in Han Dynasty. Whether it is a township school, a county school, or a Chinese school, the things taught are actually the same. The difference may be that the quality of education is different. The higher the status, the more powerful the teacher.
At present, even the teaching materials cannot be completely unified.
Liu Chang feels that the education system of later generations, which seeks to pursue a gradual approach, is very good. However, six years of primary school and six years of middle school are still not realistic in the Han Dynasty, because the descendants of the Han Dynasty are not very realistic.
When you are fifteen years old, you are considered an adult and you have to participate in corvee labor, start a family and start a career.
It is unrealistic for the young people of the Han Dynasty to study until they are eighteen or nineteen years old. Moreover, it is hard to say whether the Han Dynasty's current financial situation can support an education system of this scale.
There are many very magical operations in Liu Chang's mind, but it seems difficult to implement them in this era. The selection of officials is the easiest to implement, because it does not require too much cost and does not require the temple to bear anything.
But with a mature education system, temples have too many things to bear.
Just with the resources of the teacher, whether the big man can handle it is a big question.
In addition, the children of the Han Dynasty will automatically become a member of the family's labor force after they are eight or nine years old. It is also a big question for those parents whether they are willing to give up the labor force to let them study.
Liu Chang once asked An to compile county school textbooks, but those things were still far behind compared to later generations.
The current Han Dynasty has achieved the ultimate in all aspects. The grain production is more than 20 times that of Emperor Gao. Liu Chang feels that unless he can build a tractor or engage in hybridization or something, the grain production will be limited in the short term.
It is impossible to improve it on a large scale again.
This is already the peak of the agricultural era.
If you want to make Dahan take a further step, there are only two ways left. The first way is to let Shang Fang research more good things. Apart from anything else, as long as the steam engine is built, Dahan will be able to conquer all aspects of the war.
The development will be instantly upgraded to a new level.
It's a pity that Chen Tao is really shameless. In such a long time, he couldn't even build a steam engine.
Another way is to use the policies that I have seen in the past to change the system of Han Dynasty and let Han Dynasty usher in development, such as the education system, medical system, etc.
This method seems to be much better than waiting for experts to come up with research, but the problem is that this thing is very expensive. The official system is easy to talk about, but in education and medical care, which one does not require the temple to bear the expensive expenses?
However, there is no way to solve this.
The best solution is body poisoning.
Shendu's tribute and trade with Shendu will bring extremely generous income to the treasury of the Han Dynasty. When the treasury becomes rich, the temple can find ways to establish an education system and continuously use the money of foreign kings to
Develop local...
This is why Liu Chang went to greet King Baicheng personally.
...
Liu An lived a very comfortable life during this period. He changed his old style, followed Zhang Cang's teachings, and led his family and disciples to do what he was best at and what he liked most.
To be continued...
