Chapter 548: Uncle refutes nephew

In this matter, Su You first took the blame for the inconvenience of Su Zhe's "Equality of Distribution", and now he took the blame for Su Shi's "Evaluation of Tribute to the School".

To be fair, Su Shi's article analyzed the problem very thoroughly, but did not propose a solution, because no one could solve the shortcomings pointed out until thousands of years later.

Su Shi's article first pointed out that the way to win people is to know them, and the way to know people is to be responsible and accountable.

If the monarch, ruler and prime minister have a way to know who is responsible, even the subordinate staff can find talented people. If not, even the ministers and servants will be full of crooked melons and cracked jujubes.

Therefore, it is not a problem with the imperial examination system, but a problem with the system of knowing people and being responsible for their actions.

The construction of the school had happened in the Qingli Year. At that time, the world thought that peace could be expected, but now there are only a few empty houses left.

If there is no major reform and we continue to follow the old path of the Qingli Period, we will inevitably only get the results of the Qingli Period.

As for the method of paying tribute, it makes no difference whether one examines poems or poems or examines policy theory. The rise and fall of governing chaos does not depend on these.

The examiner has policies and candidates have countermeasures.

As long as you set up subjects and establish names to get scholars, you will teach the world to follow each other and it will be false.

Those who are above take people with filial piety, those below who are brave will cut off their legs to serve their relatives, and those who are timid will guard the hut and tomb.

Those at the top take people cheaply, but down below everyone drives shabby cars, rides thin horses, wears bad clothes, and eats cheap food.

The one above talks about green waters and green mountains, but the one below can paint the entire mountain green for you, do you believe it?

Anyway, as long as you can get what you want, I will try my best to come up with any tricks for you.

As far as articles are concerned, policies and theories are useful, but poems and poems are of little use;

But when it comes to governing the world, poems, policies and theories are actually useless.

From the Tang Dynasty to the present, there are countless officials who have become famous for their poems and poems, so there is no reason to abandon poems and poems.

Nowadays, scholars have sorted out various question banks, called Cekuo, to search all possible examination questions. When the time comes for the examination, they plagiarize and piece it together to come up with a passable essay.

Article, that's a piece of cake.

If you use such a policy to bully the examiner, the examiner will only hold your nose and give you high marks.

Instead of doing this, it is better to take a test on poetry and fu. After all, poetry and fu require a lot of emphasis on parallelism, which is more difficult than a strategy where everyone can copy a large number of articles in the world.

Speaking of this Su You, I couldn't help but snicker. He was actually the inventor of the question bank. Su Shi was not giving any face to his little uncle...

This kid is jealous, he must be jealous!

Next, Su Shi analyzed some of the ideas discussed by everyone and thought that they all would not work.

If the name-blinding system is abolished and reputation is combined with test papers, the royal family will lose favor, power will return to private families, and cliques will emerge.

If a person who is capable of literature is selected as a Jinshi, then the Jinshi will study the classics and history day and night, throughout the journey, and his knowledge will be very profound. Once he comes to power, that knowledge will be of no use at all!

They advocate the restoration of the old Qingli learning, but the old learning has been turned into an empty name by everyone. At most, it can cultivate people who understand some superficial principles. To cultivate real talents, that is overthinking.

The only way to assess talents is whether they can show themselves if they are well managed.

The article moved Zhao Xu: "I have always suspected this, but now that Shi has discussed it, I feel relieved."

On the same day, they went to Su Shi and asked: "What are the pros and cons of the current decree? Even if it is my fault, you dare to say that it doesn't matter."

Su Shi was not polite either, snapping three cannons: "Your Majesty seeks treatment too quickly, listens too widely, and enters too sharply."

Zhao Xu was horrified.

Then Su Shi started to spread the word among his colleagues.

Wang Anshi was very angry when his proposal was blocked by Su Shi, and he repeatedly blocked Zhao Xu's appointment of Su Shi.

Zhao Xu wanted Su Shi to amend the Regulations on Zhongshu. Wang Anshi said: "Su Shi is different from what I have learned and discussed. It is better to let him do something else. It is appropriate to hand over the Regulations on Zhongshu to Jifu."

So Su Shi was given a complicated task: "Quan Kaifeng Prefecture recommends officials to do things for those who are trapped."

And "Shi was decisive and quick, and his voice was heard far and wide."

…

Lu Huiqing shook his head at Wang Yu: "Su Shi doesn't have a city, so he won't be our opponent. However, this man is eloquent and can easily move people's hearts. He can't stay at the side of the Holy Lord for a long time."

Wang Yu continued to lose a child to strengthen his midsection: "In this way, you and I will do it ourselves."

In July of the second year of Xining, Lu Huiqing was promoted to Prince Zhongyun, the storyteller of Chongzheng Palace, the administrator of Jixian School, and the judge of Sinong Temple.

When Zhang Dun arrived in Beijing, Wang Anshi was overjoyed to see him and regretted that he arrived late. He immediately appointed him as the officer of the Third Department of Compilation and Regulations, the school administrator of Jixian Hall, and the inspector of Zhongshu. He participated in the formulation of new laws, supervised the revision of national history, and compiled historical records.

A small official named Zeng Bu in Kaifeng wrote a letter to discuss government. He said that there are two fundamentals for governing: strict customs and selection of talents. There are eight main points: encouraging farmers and mulberry trees, managing finances and endowments, building schools, reviewing elections, taking charge of official classes, and describing

The clan cultivated military equipment and controlled people from afar. Wang Anshi immediately summoned him for a discussion, and then recommended it to Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xu summoned him and granted him the position of Prince Zhongyun, the storyteller in Chongzheng Hall, and soon he was awarded the position of school director of Jixian, Tongjian of Sinong Temple, and inspector of the fifth room of Zhongshu. Within three days, he received five appointments from Zhao Xu one after another.

As a clerk, he was promoted to the third position in the New Party.

When Su You was busy in Zhengzhou, he would pick up his pen to refute his nephew's views.

There is no doubt about the importance of schools. In ancient times, knowledge was in the hands of nobles and princes. Without a master, there would be no education. Without his three thousand disciples, the courtesy would not be the same as that of a common man.

But today in the Song Dynasty, at the end of the year in the countryside, there are also suburban societies, where talented people write articles and stay with the elderly to receive gifts. This is the enlightenment of writing.

Literacy rate is an important indicator to consider the level of civilization of a country, and it can also be converted into an important indicator of the level of national consumption.

The problems mentioned by Su Shi all exist, and building a school as mentioned by Duke Jiefu is also appropriate, but their purpose is too eager to make a profit!

There are merits in this life, and there are also benefits. The merits can last for a thousand years, but the benefits can be seen in a moment.

Planting trees on a thousand mountains will surely bring forth beautiful figures; piling up a thousand horses and riding horses, there will surely be excellent horses. If a minister cannot learn, he is just a cunning person in Meishan. How can he be used by your majesty?

Su Shi was biased when he denied the possibility of establishing schools in various places because of the Qingli incident.

Duke Jiefu directly related the school to the imperial examination, which is also biased.

The purpose of schools is not to make everyone take the imperial examinations and become talents, but to popularize education, improve literacy rates, and equip people with the ability to learn by themselves.

With this ability, good scholars can naturally improve and become the pillars of the country.

A dull person can also understand state regulations and abide by laws and etiquette.

No one is born knowing.

The greatness of the Master is that the common people have the opportunity to ask for gifts; the greatness of the school is that everyone in the world has the opportunity to learn!

This is the difference between utility.

Although there are great principles in the handyman's workshop. However, for thousands of years, the principles of the great principles and practical knowledge have not been extracted from it. What is the reason? But I only paid a little attention to it and unearthed a lot of knowledge. This is also

what is the reason?

In fact, this is just because I have a thorough knowledge and can find a reasonable way of expression, and I have collected, organized and refined the truth that the craftsmen understand but cannot express.

If the great craftsmen were also proficient in doctrine and writing, Lu Ban Mo Zhai could have done these things thousands of years ago. Why wait until today?

Therefore, in the century-old plan, education is the foundation, not for immediate gain, but for long-term success.

There are many smart but poor scholars in the world, and schools can solve this problem.

If your majesty and you all think that what I said is wrong, then next year the imperial court is planning the imperial examination. Do you dare to let the children from the third and fifth classes of Meishan Polytechnic School come to Bianjing to compete with scholars from all walks of life?!

Zhao Xu received the memorial and was quite interested in the matter. He specially selected Su You's memorial and showed it to Wang Anshi and Zhao Bian: "Prince, Duke Zhao, is Su You's proposal feasible?"

Wang Anshi had a black line on his forehead: "What nonsense! Su Mingrun made sense at the beginning, but in the end it was just nonsense. It's because he stopped studying after getting No. 3 on the list!"

Old Man Zhao hates to hear other people say bad things about Su You: "Jiefu's words are wrong. Su Mingrun is born with benevolence. I haven't heard of Gao, Kui, Ji, Ji, what books can I read!"

Wang Anshi suddenly became speechless.

Zhao Xu asked: "Does Mr. Zhao think Su You's proposal is feasible?"

But Old Man Zhao immediately turned his back and cursed: "Of course it's nonsense!"

Zhao Xu was dumbfounded. Then you just made Wang Anshi speechless?

Only then did Zhao Pian react: "Oh... this... Your Majesty, after all, the Huaxuan of the country must leave some dignity to the scholars..."

Wang Anshi asked: "What do you mean? You mean, the children who come out of Meishan School cannot pass the imperial examination?"

Zhao Bian laughed and said: "More than ten years ago, when Su You and Shi Wei were nine years old, when they first met Zhang Andao, Xiao Shi Wei mentioned an arithmetic problem, three fives and one one, and each number should be added, subtracted, multiplied and divided.

It can only be used once, and in the end we have to get the number twenty-four. With Zhang Andao's cleverness, he spent an entire night, but he didn't figure it out."

Wang Anshi was a little surprised: "Is this difficult?"

Zhao Xu was still frightened: "Now that I think about it, science and engineering are indeed terrible. The first time I came into contact with science and engineering, I used a ruler and compass to divide a circle into five equal parts..."

After saying that, I couldn't help but shudder.
