“To promote agriculture, we must first equalize the cultivated land. The first thing is to let the common people have their own cultivated land. The temples should allocate all their public and official fields to the common people!
"
As soon as he walked into Taixue, Liu Chang was hit with a critical blow.
Liu Chang stared blankly at the boastful scholar. The man was tall, and his clothes were no worse than those of Liu Chang. He almost looked like a son of a powerful man on his face, but the words he spoke were different from his.
There is a bit of a mismatch in identity.
Standing in front of him was another student. This person said angrily: "The cultivated land is the country, and the people are just laborers on the cultivated land. The temples should be allowed to take back the land in the world and let the people cultivate it. For different things,
Families are given different farmland according to their head, so as to avoid the annexation of farmland..."
Well, this one is even more heavyweight.
Liu Chang was shocked.
He hesitated and looked at Lu Lu, who was standing aside, "Are all today's imperial students like this?"
"Ahem, Your Majesty, you can't make generalizations."
Liu Chang thought about it and realized that what he said was right. He continued to move towards the interior of Taixue. In a pavilion, a Taixue student was talking loudly about his ambitions, while the others were surrounding him and clapping their hands.
Applause.
"To promote agriculture, we must destroy business. This is wrong. Business and agriculture are not antagonistic. Today, there are no talented people in temples. They are just stupid people. How do they know how to govern the country? If you want to promote agriculture, just do it.
Attention should be paid to business first. Your Majesty wants to engage in business. This is a good proof. I have studied the market for many years. No matter how high the grain output is in the Han Dynasty, there are still people who don't have enough to eat. The lack of food has little to do with the food output.
Instead, it has something to do with backward food science!”
“If the food supply in the world is developed, the people will be rich and the market will be stable, so that every household can have enough to eat!
"
"If you are willing to follow me and join the 'Seven Friends of the World' organized by me, when I become the Prime Minister, I will definitely formulate corresponding policies! I will work with you to realize these ideas!
"
Looking at the screaming students around him, Liu Chang looked at Lu Lu hesitantly again.
“Is it time to go find Liu Zhang now??”
Lu Lu hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, this is a society within Taixue. It is usually formed by students with common aspirations. It is not intended to rebel..."
"oh...."
Walking further inside, under the shade of a tree, I saw a man holding a newspaper and shouting loudly: "Become a traitor to the country! Be a traitor to the country! The respected Liu thief in Hexi has written a new policy and wants to charge tuition!
Your Majesty established the county school, which was originally intended to recruit scholars for the country and educate talents. How dare you come up with such a sinister policy? This is to cherish the foundation of our country. Everyone, please join me in writing a letter to punish Hexi.
Dear Liu Zei!"
Not far from him, there were students holding newspapers and shouting loudly: "Liu Gong collected the fees in order to better build the county school. The serious deficit of the county school made the temple difficult to operate. Moreover, the people everywhere were disapproving and thought that
Even if it’s frivolous, you still have to charge a fee, otherwise no one will value this knowledge!
The money collected is to provide salaries to county school officials, and it is all for enlightenment!
!”
"That guy should be blown up with gunpowder!"
"I'll blow you up first!"
Soon, the two men began to have a physical sparring, fighting each other, and their heads were bruised and bloody.
Liu Chang sighed: "I am still too kind."
Even in the distance, students could be seen shouting loudly: "Why doesn't the county school recruit girls?! Ding is outside, and the mother teaches her son. If the mother doesn't learn, how can she teach her son?!"
Liu Chang walked along like this for a long time. Some of the oncoming imperial students recognized him and hurriedly leaned over to salute. Liu Chang tried not to disturb too many people and walked into Fu Qiubo's study.
Qiu Bo's study is not in the middle of Taixue. Instead, it is in a forest in the north. The scenery here is very good. Many of the winemakers live here. When Liu Chang led the people in,
Several students are asking Fuqiubo for advice.
Seeing the emperor coming, those people hurriedly got up to pay their respects.
"Well, no problem, you ask first, and I will ask again after you have finished asking!"
"We'll just ask tomorrow!"
The students did not dare to waste Liu Chang's time and hurriedly excused themselves and left. Liu Chang then sat down in front of Fuqiu Bo with a smile and waved. Lu Lu and Liu Bo also walked in. The young
Liu Bozheng looked around curiously. For him, who was young, the things in Taixue were too mysterious, which aroused his infinite curiosity.
Duke Fuqiu glanced at Liu Bo, and he probably understood the emperor's intention this time.
However, Liu Chang did not go straight to the topic. Instead, he asked with a smile: "I heard that Mr. Fuqiu and Mr. Huang have had many discussions in newspapers recently. What, can you still resist?"
"Hahaha, thank you for your majesty's troubles. Although I am old, I have never been tired."
Nowadays, the two schools of thought that are fighting fiercely are Confucianism and Huang-Lao. After years of development, Confucianism has continuously shortened the distance between it and Huang-Lao. People have emerged, and the number of students has increased. At the time, Shusun Tong
Through the enlightenment, too many young talents have been cultivated, making them more powerful. If it weren't for the chaos among the factions within Confucianism, and they didn't deal with each other, I'm afraid it wouldn't be so easy for Mr. Huang to resist.
Today, Mr. Huang is increasingly showing his tiredness.
Huang Lao gritted his teeth and put all his hopes on their new saint.
Liu Chang chatted with him for a while, and then talked about what he saw after entering Taixue, "Just now after I entered Taixue, I was thinking all the way, if the ministers after the Han Dynasty are like this, what will happen to the Han Dynasty?"
There is no hope anymore, you and I will be dead in a hundred years."
"However, after entering this door, I thought about it again. It is understandable that young people have many unrealistic ideas in their hearts. When I was still young, I also had many ideas.
..They will grow up sooner or later."
"However, your Imperial College is still relatively loose in governance. Along the way, some people have criticized the local prime minister, some have scolded the princes and kings, and some have scolded the three public officials and nine ministers. There are even some people who think that I trust Prime Minister Zhang and make mistakes.
Isn’t this a bit too much to interfere with state affairs?”
Fuqiupe shook his head and said seriously: "Those who scold the most harshly will most likely become loyal supporters of the people they scold. Your Majesty does not have to worry at all... They scold, just
They needed to look up a lot of relevant content, and after cursing and cursing, they took it in..."
"They think they are knowledgeable enough and can govern the country, but how can they compare with the three ministers and nine ministers? When they understand their shortcomings, they will slowly change."
"Besides, there is no crime of defamation in Taixue. Everyone expresses their opinions and communicates with each other. Only in this way can useful people be cultivated."
"Of course it's okay within Taixue. If you leave Taixue, don't do this... I'm tolerant. Even if someone scolds me, I won't care. Even if the minister is really stingy, I'm afraid I won't tolerate it.
It would be bad if something happens with such abuse and insult."
The officials trained by Taixue are not the low-level officials. Most of them started as county officials, and Liu Chang still paid more attention to them.
After chatting with Uncle Fuqiu for a while, Liu Chang looked at his son.
"The king is getting older. This son has been smart since he was young and has my style. I am going to let you teach him and teach him the knowledge of governing the country...I don't know if you are willing, but no matter what, you have to
Take it!
!”
Lu Lu's eyelids twitched, what a tyrant's remarks.
Uncle Fuqiu smiled. He had a very good relationship with Liu Chang, so he looked at Liu Bo.
"Good boy, what books have you read?"
Liu Bo looked nervously at Fu Qiu Bo, hesitating. Liu Chang gave him a gentle push, and he hurriedly said: "On the De Jing!"
Fu Qiu Bo was stunned for a moment, and he had a rough idea of the acting king's talents.
Fuqiubo's evaluation was: not as good as his father.
Liu Chang cleared his throat and said: "He is still in enlightenment and has never read any books."
"Your Majesty, the prince is Mr. Huang. If I accept the king as my disciple, I'm afraid it will not be good..."
"What's wrong with that?"
"I have thought about it. I have four sons. There are four famous schools in the world. It just so happens that each of them has one. An will learn from Huang Lao, Bo will learn from Confucianism, and they will be taught Dharma and Liang will learn Mo... In the future, they will go to their respective fiefdoms.
I will invite celebrities from my family's sect to study together like my late father-in-law did, and maybe we can even make the style of writing more prosperous!"
But Fu Qiubo smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, aren't you afraid that it will cause a dispute?"
"With An's son watching, how dare these men have any disputes?"
"No need to say more!"
In this way, Fu Qiu Bo accepted this disciple and said, "Okay, study with your teacher. After you finish studying, someone will take you home!"
Liu Chang gave Liu Bo a few instructions and hurried out of here.
Fu Qiu Bo looked at the newly accepted disciple, Liu Bo also looked at the teacher blankly, and the two looked at each other.
Although Fu Qiu Bo has taught many people, most of them are Liu Chang's age. He has never taught such a young child. Fu Qiu Bo thought for a moment and took out the Analects of Confucius, then put it down again and took out his pen and ink.
, placed in front of Liu Bo.
"Well, I'll teach you how to write a few words today. You don't have to read the book... I'll just tell you some stories. What do you think?"
"good!"
Liu Bo was very happy. Fuqiu Bo laughed and taught him how to write. He also taught him the characters Liu, Han, Dai, Bo, Da, Wang, etc. Liu Bo actually had some writing skills. He knew some of the characters, but they were all
He studied according to Huang Lao's books, so he couldn't write these very basic characters. After all, there are no such words as Han and Liu in the books of Huang Lao's school.
After teaching the doll, Fuqiubo asked him to sit next to him and kindly told him a story.
"A long time ago, there was a filial son in the Tang Dynasty..."
"Teacher? How long ago was it?"
"Twenty years."
"This filial son's father is sick every day and feels extremely uncomfortable every day. Therefore, this filial son wants to invite famous doctors to treat his father's illness..."
Liu Bo listened carefully, his eyes shining.
........
Liu Chang grinned and walked out of Taixue.
"Your Majesty, we are going back now..."
"What the hell, I've come up with the excuse of having a rare erection. Why are you going back so soon? I just came back late this time. It can also be said that I didn't pay attention to the lecture. It wasted time. Shu can only believe it! Weird!
Not on my head!"
Liu Chang said proudly, and then ordered: "Quickly, send someone to fetch Yu Yuan out. Let's go to a small county town, drink wine and eat meat, and listen to his stories!"
Yu Yuan was that novelist. This novelist who was deeply loved by the emperor also had some fame in the Han Dynasty. Although the officials despised him and did not take him seriously, speaking of it, the same sentence was said.
The country is useless, but Liu Chang doesn't think so.
Everything will be useful in your own hands.
Yu Yuan was picked up in the carriage with a bitter look on his face. Many people envied him, saying that he might be the highest-status novelist in history, but he was actually kept by the emperor's side and rewarded him all day long. But only he understood the pain.
, just because he wrote a tragic story, the emperor almost beat him to death and forced him to revise it. He even regretted his choice of this industry. If he had known better, he would have studied hard and gone to the Imperial College.
While walking on the carriage, Yu Yuan couldn't rest and was telling the latest stories he had written.
Liu Chang listened with great interest.
The story Yu Yuan is telling now is about Fan Hui. It tells about Fan Hui's bravery. It contains a lot of things, half true and half false. Liu Chang's blood boiled when he heard it. Liu Chang squinted his eyes and looked aside.
Lu Lu suddenly asked: "Lu, tell me, how does this compare to the county school?"
"ah??"
Lu Lu was a little surprised and didn't understand what Liu Chang meant at all.
"You see, at the beginning, Prime Minister Xiao said that he wanted to educate the world. He first proposed that the Han Dynasty should govern the country with filial piety and govern with benevolence. He should reward and encourage the moral people in the local area, so that the rest of the people can follow them and learn... imitate them.
Regarding virtue, when my mother was in power, she asked local officials to recommend virtuous people to serve as officials and reward filial sons in the local area..."
The Han Dynasty was an era that attached great importance to moral concepts. This was because the temples continued to encourage this kind of custom and educate the people to understand morality, mainly starting from aspects such as filial piety and creating a moral atmosphere among the people. Even later, morality became
The first criterion for becoming an official.
You know, not long ago in Qin, the standard for becoming an official was beheading!
In the Qin State, you basically can't find any good ministers, the kind who can send away family property to help the people, or are so popular with the local people that when they leave, everyone will greet them and be reluctant to leave. Before Qin, such people
There are not many people. Only in the Han Dynasty, there were many such models of virtuous ministers. These people were not all famous, but they were indeed deeply loved by the people. They had this kind of moral concept, which was what the Han Dynasty wanted.
something to establish.
When the Han Dynasty goes out to fight, they always have to find excuses for themselves. They do not use unknown troops. Anyway, they have to praise their benevolence and morality everywhere. Of course, the folk moral concepts of the Han Dynasty have indeed improved a lot compared to before. Anyway, in the Han Dynasty you
If you dare to starve your elderly parents to death, you will be torn apart by a car... The laws of the Qin State stipulate that beating parents is not allowed, otherwise they will be sentenced according to the crime of disobedience, and the maximum penalty is death. But in the Han Dynasty, you have the guts to contradict
Try one sentence?
In the Han Dynasty, if there was disobedience, the local officials would suffer, and maybe even the three princes would be implicated. Failure to educate the people would be a serious crime.
"Nowadays, I find that these storytellers are very popular, and people everywhere like to listen to them. You said that if Feng Chang were to manage these novelists, let them write more about filial sons and virtuous grandchildren, and about heroes of the Han Dynasty, such as Ji Bu who was as trustworthy as he was.
It can be a model. In this way, the common people will be influenced by it, and it will be more conducive to enlightenment."
Lu Lu nodded and said with emotion: "It is not easy for Your Majesty to make up such a reason in order to listen to more stories!"
"I'm not making this up randomly. Isn't this for the sake of the people of the world? You have followed me for so long, why are you still so superficial?"
"Urgent report!
Urgent report!
"
Suddenly a knight rushed towards him, shouting loudly and asking everyone on the road to avoid it. This was an urgent document from the Han Dynasty, usually a military one.
"Urgent report from Yan State!
Retreat quickly!
"
Just when the knight was rushing towards Chang'an City, Liu Chang was overjoyed and hurriedly asked Lu Lu to stop him. When the soldiers stopped the knight, the knight was stunned, with disbelief on his face. Among the big men, there was a
A very serious criminal law is to stop the postman, especially this kind of expedited one.
How should I put it? If there is an orphan who has been separated from his family since he was a child and has not found his family for more than 30 years, what is the fastest way to find his relatives? Just hit the road and stop for an urgent postman. Don't
Tell your parents that you will be able to find your three tribes within three days, and then happily follow the three tribes on the road.
The knight did not expect that someone would dare to intercept him. He reined in his horse angrily and roared: "What do you want to do?!
"
"The Emperor is here!
"
Lu Lu's words dispelled the knight's anger. The knight quickly dismounted and paid homage to Liu Chang.
The knight did not doubt the authenticity of this. No one would dare to pretend to be the emperor near Chang'an, right? This is not looking for the three tribes, but the five tribes.
Liu Chang took away his urgent notice and read it carefully.
After watching for a moment, Liu Chang couldn't help but raise his head and laugh.
"Your Majesty, what happened?"
"The Northeast has been completely pacified, King Yan has won a great victory, all the thieves and chieftains, big and small, have been captured. Even Su Shen has sent an envoy, saying that he wants to pay tribute to the Han Dynasty and come to see me!
Haha, Su Shen, I heard in the past that whenever a wise king governs the world, Su Shen will send his good bow as tribute..."
"Ah?? Sovereign envoys? They are coming? But Feng Jing is in the Western Region, how will he entertain them?"
"Entertainment??? When this guy comes, I will tie him up and give him twenty lashes!
!”
Lu Lu was stunned. Su Shen's offering of the bow had long been a characteristic of a wise king under Zhou's propaganda. He was here to send auspiciousness, so how could you still beat him?
Liu Chang was very angry at this moment.
"They just sent it here now. They clearly look down on me. They should have sent it to me when I was born. Why did they send it so late?!"
