When Chen Guiyi saw the old couple talking about Mr. Zhou, their faces were full of envy and admiration, and he couldn't help but feel curious.
After asking the old couple, Chen Guiyi learned that Mr. Zhou's name was Zhou Zhu. He was a teacher from Majiadian outside the city. He knew astronomy and geography. He was full of knowledge. He could rule the world with a pen and rule with a sword.
Barbarians are talented people who know the world.
Chen Guiyi was very happy. He didn't expect that outside Lin'an City, under his nose, there would be such a great talent. Now the officials are implementing reforms just to enrich the country and strengthen the army. This is the time to employ people. If it is true as the old couple said, then
What a treasure.
Not caring about so much, Chen Guiyi ordered someone to inform Li Zongmian and Chen Longzhi first, telling them that he would arrive late, and he simply went to find Mr. Zhou Zhu according to the place he inquired about.
The school this week was run by Zhu Zhu was in the suburbs outside Lin'an City. It was so remote that Chen Guiyi walked for more than an hour after leaving the city.
However, when Chen Guiyi saw Zhou Zhu, he was really surprised. He saw hundreds of people surrounding Zhou Zhu's house. The adult was holding the apprenticeship ceremony in his hand, and the children were carefully following the adult. It was such a big scene.
, but there was silence, everyone was waiting for Zhou Zhu to speak.
"A great talent, indeed a great talent."
Just looking at this scene, Chen Guiyi already felt that this trip was worthwhile. He watched quietly on the side and watched Zhou Zhu speak.
Zhou Zhu stood there, like a star holding the moon, with his hands behind his back and a look of pride on his face. Obviously, such a grand scene today was beyond his expectation.
Zhou Zhu thought to himself: "Are you so popular? Have you already become so famous that people admire you so much?"
With excitement in his heart, Zhou Zhu said: "Thank you fellow villagers for your kindness. You can send your children to study. This is a good thing that benefits the country and the family. I am not talented, so I will teach you with all my heart and let them become pillars of talent. I will live up to my expectations."
The earnest expectations of the villagers."
The people were all excited, surrounded Zhou Zhu, and rushed to deliver the apprenticeship ceremony in front of Zhou Zhu. The scene was extremely lively.
Zhou Zhu was overjoyed and enthusiastically handed out the apprenticeship ceremony to everyone one by one. It can be said that everyone who came came was welcome.
After finally waiting until everyone had dispersed, Chen Guiyi stepped forward and said to Zhou Zhu: "I, Chen Guiyi, heard that your husband is a great talent, so I came here to visit you. Please give me some advice."
Zhou Zhu was surprised, "Are you Chen Guiyi and Chen Shijun who assisted the officials in presiding over the new law?"
Chen Guiyi nodded, "Exactly."
Zhou Zhu was frightened in his heart, but he still suppressed his excitement and tried to make himself less nervous.
At this moment, Zhou Zhu suddenly recalled an incident from yesterday. Yesterday, a fortune teller came to ask for water. In order to express his gratitude, the fortune teller did a fortune teller for him and said that he would have good fortune and be ranked in the ministry.
He didn't believe it at the time, but he didn't expect that a big man like Chen Guiyi would come to visit in person today. Could it be that what the fortune teller said was true?
Zhou Zhuqiang calmed himself and said: "Your Majesty has come here to make your humble house shine. Please come in and have a cup of tea."
"Thank you for your kindness. I won't bother you."
The two of them entered the house and after exchanging a few words, Chen Guiyi got straight to the point and said, "May I ask, sir, what do you think of the current situation?"
Before Zhou Zhu entered the room, he was thinking that Chen Guiyi would have to test his talent and learning later. If he could successfully pass, he would be able to enter an official career and have a promising future.
If you cannot answer, then there is nothing.
In view of this, Zhou Zhu had long been thinking about making a lofty speech in the hope of calming Chen Guiyi.
Zhou Zhu thought briefly, organized his words, and then said what he was thinking.
Zhou Zhudao: "I advocate the use of learning to govern the country. Today, the etiquette and music in the world have collapsed. Most of the officials are greedy for money and power, and do not care about the suffering of the people. Most of the people are just like dogs, forgetting their righteousness when they see profit. This is all caused by the weakening of the sage's learning.
I believe that in order to get rid of all this, we need to establish schools and government offices as soon as possible, encourage people to read and read from an early age, know righteousness and law, and appreciate the benevolence of saints and sages. This will last for thirty years, affecting three generations, and the evil of human beings will be curbed.
When good nature is carried forward and righteousness flourishes, the world will naturally be governed."
This statement can be said to be extremely well said and very standard. It can be said like this in any period.
However, this answer does not seem to answer Chen Guiyi's words, but it seems to answer it. An expert is an expert. What he says is always confusing, making people unable to figure it out, and feeling unfathomable. This is really like a warning to the world at first.
Hengyan, when I think about it later, it’s like holding a lamp in the daytime, as if I didn’t say it.
This was the case for Chen Guiyi at this time. Chen Guiyi came sincerely and was thirsty for talents. After listening to Zhou Zhu's words, he also thought of the compulsory teaching method that Zhao Yun wants to implement now. Isn't this also advocating for the development of teaching?
?
Chen Guiyi was excited and stood up and said to Zhou Zhu: "Sir, you are a great talent. This is exactly the same as the original intention of the official compulsory teaching method. You are a great talent, please accept my respect."
As he spoke, Chen Guiyi really bowed down to Zhou Zhu!
Zhou Zhu was overjoyed, but also shocked at the same time. He hurriedly turned aside, not daring to accept Chen Guiyi's gift. He stood on the side and said to Chen Guiqian, "How dare I accept this?"
"Nowadays, the officials want to implement the compulsory teaching method. This law coincides with my husband's ideas. This is God's will. I dare to invite you to become an official and serve the country."
Chen Guiyi looked sincere and extended an invitation to Zhou Zhu.
Zhou Zhu was extremely excited. He had waited for so many years and finally waited for today!
Zhou Zhu nodded and said: "Confucius said Cheng Ren, Mencius said Qi Yi, the officials have such grand plans and ambitions, how can I dare to stand by and watch?"
Chen Guiyi was overjoyed and excitedly held Zhou Zhu's hand. The two looked at each other and laughed.
The two of them were laughing, but they didn't know that someone was laughing secretly, and that person was none other than Marco.
Marco observed secretly and found that the matter was done, so he quickly left quietly and went to Wang Jin to discuss the next plan.
But it was said that Chen Guiyi invited Zhou Zhu to his side and appointed him as an opportunity to help him study and implement the compulsory teaching method. However, who knew that his decision would soon be attacked by everyone.
The first person to launch the attack was Duan Yichun, a student from the Imperial College. He and a dozen of the Imperial College students jointly submitted a letter asking Chen Guiyi to be executed, saying that he conspired to control the power of the government and was trying to become Shi Miyuan's second best!
When Chen Guiyi heard the news, he was a monk who was two feet tall. He was confused and asked why these imperial students suddenly impeached him for such a crime. Even if the farmland was transferred to the household, there had never been any petition for such a crime?
Immediately afterwards, another censor impeached Chen Guiyi for joining the party and colluding with the remnants of the rebel party. He wanted to use the new law to establish his own power. He asked Zhao Yun to immediately remove Chen Guiyi and put him in jail for questioning.
