Day 1016 Preparations before the war (1)

Yi Yun: It is a holy skill to be upright and upright!

Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties all had their own specialized educational institutions.

Xia was called Xiao, Shang was called Xu, and Zhou was called Xiang.

The Qin and Han dynasties each had their own different royal education.

As far as the Han Dynasty is concerned, royal education is divided into two parts.

Part of it was taught by the emperor, who carried it with him and taught him by words and deeds.

For example, in history, Emperor Xuan often brought his grandson Liu Yu with him and called him his steed.

It's a pity that Liu Yu is a tease.

He didn't learn his grandfather's methods at all, but he learned Emperor Xuan's infatuation and common sense.

The other part is choosing a mentor to educate the children.

Like Liu Che and his brothers, they all became successful under the education of Confucian teachers.

Therefore, historically, brothers of Liu Che's generation tended to be Confucian in terms of ideology and thinking.

Liu Che naturally noticed this.

Therefore, a long time ago, he had already planned to let his sons grow up with as little influence as possible from various schools of thought.

This is also a lesson learned from Emperor Xuan.

Emperor Xuan knew very clearly that his stupid son Liu Shi was a scumbag.

But there is no way to replace it.

The reason is simple. Although Liu Shi is a scumbag, his younger brother may be even worse.

There is no way to choose a less scumbag among a group of scumbags.

Liu Che didn't want his heir to be brainwashed while growing up.

Therefore, when faced with Empress Dowager Dou's envoy, Liu Che made a very clear reply to his attitude: Please report back to Empress Dowager, the Han family has its own system, use the way of overlord, and husbands should strengthen themselves!

Then, Liu Che sent Liu Bing to the academy in Shanglin Garden.

Go to school with the war orphans and descendants of loyal ministers.

Even, in order to avoid people knowing, this is the prince.

Liu Che also changed Liu Qubing's name and asked him to enroll in an ordinary class under the pseudonym Fan Wen.

He can only be allowed to return to the palace once every month.

The eldest son of the emperor suddenly disappeared from the palace, and many people were surprised.

Except for a few close ministers, almost no one knew where the emperor's eldest son had gone.

Everyone only knows that the emperor seems to have let the eldest son go to the private sector.

The imagination of the old Liu family once again shocked people.

What's even more frightening is that the emperor seems to be planning to turn this measure into a system.

As soon as the princes reach the age of enlightenment, they all leave the palace.

For a time, many ministers could not understand and were very worried.

The prince is a noble person from Tianhuang, and he is destined to be at least one of the princes and kings since he was born.

Just throw it away from the public?

Emperor, are you not anxious or afraid?

You know, in this era, even for princes, the death rate is astonishing.

What if we bump into each other? What should we do?

But Liu Che still went his own way.

In his opinion, keeping the prince in the palace will cause him to die young!

If you go out and exercise, you will be better able to resist diseases if you become physically fit.

Of course, Liu Che would occasionally find time to go to Shanglin Garden to quietly pay attention to and observe Liu Bing.

To Liu Che's surprise, Liu Bing seemed to adapt well to life in the academy.

Although he is only four years old, he is not very sensible and is extremely naughty.

But there are so many friends in the academy.

He found the feeling immediately.

Apart from being a little squeamish, I don't have any other faults.

This undoubtedly gave Liu a good start in his education.

Not keeping the prince in the palace, but letting him go, is crucial to cultivating a qualified heir.

At least, you won't encounter the same embarrassment as Emperor Xuan in the end: they are all teases and scum, and you don't have a choice even if you want!

On the other hand, Yi Ruo, during this process, showed a poise and magnanimity that even surprised Liu Che.

She didn't cry, make trouble, hang herself, and pester her all day long as Liu Che expected.

On the contrary, they were very encouraging and supportive of Liu Bing who had left the palace to go to school.

Every time Liu Bingji returned to the palace, she would encourage and comfort her son, making him strong and brave.

This made Liu Che secretly give Yi Ruo a thumbs up.

As September enters, the weather gradually turns cooler.

Almost overnight, frost appeared in Chang'an City.

This shows that the temperature this year will be colder than in previous years.

"Your Majesty, this is the report from Yunzhong County..." Yi Zong took a stack of temperature reports sent back from Yunzhong County and said: "Yunzhong County is already frosty and snowy. It is estimated that it should snow outside the Great Wall!

"

Liu Che took it over and looked at it.

The Mohists invented the original thermometer last year.

That is a by-product of the Mohist glass-firing process.

Although the Mo family still has not produced glass in the true sense, they have made great progress in the purification of colored glaze.

So, Liu Che just reminded them a little bit.

They created primitive thermometers that recorded temperature changes using mercury.

Of course, the thermometer invented by the Chinese will definitely not use the Western method of measuring temperature.

The Mohists called the unit temperature of the thermometer "engraving", probably because they used a sharp knife to engrave equal lengths on the thermometer to mark the temperature change.

Liu Che has seen that kind of thermometer.

Very simple design.

It's probably a relatively transparent glass tube filled with mercury.

When the outside temperature drops or rises, mercury will expand or shrink due to the force of thermal expansion and contraction.

Because of the ruler tools and methods of weights and measures, one moment in Mohism is equivalent to more than two degrees in later generations.

"It's actually been a moment of loss..." Liu Che sighed after reading the report.

In Chang'an, the temperature is still plus two degrees (four to five degrees), but the temperature in the clouds has dropped to minus two degrees (minus two degrees). Of course, because of the different materials and calculation methods, the data may be different from those of later generations.

But no matter what, this temperature is not something the Chinese can adapt to.

Not to mention, the temperature outside the Great Wall will be even lower!

In this era, it is common knowledge that Hu Tian will have snow in August.

In the grasslands outside the Great Wall, it snows in August, turns completely white in September, and in October, heavy snow often closes the mountains. This is normal.

Of course, Hetao is equivalent to the cold Saibei, which is warmer.

But, as expected, it snows in October.

Tu Chao Taizu said: The scenery of the northern country is covered with ice for thousands of miles and snow drifting for thousands of miles.

Before global warming, it would snow in northern China, sometimes even waist-deep snow on the surface.

It is quite common for large rivers (Yellow River) to freeze into glaciers.

This has both advantages and disadvantages for the Han army's actions.

At present, it seems that it does more harm than good!

"How many of Shaofu's cold gloves have been produced?" Liu Che asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, there are already more than 100,000 sets..." Yi Zong replied: "This is already the limit of the Shaofu!"

Liu Che also nodded, this is indeed a fact.

But gloves, this inconspicuous thing, are now a must-have munitions for the Han army when they go out to the fortress! (To be continued.)
