It's autumn, and the leaves in the front yard of Chunfang fall with the wind, covering the entire yard in one night. In a few days, the trees planted in Chunfang become bare.
In the sky, there are more and more migratory birds flying southward every day.
And Zhao Xin finally returned to Chunfang.
Because Zhao Zhen, at the repeated request of the ministers, had begun to listen to the government again.
This announced the end of Zhao Xin's short puppet career.
In the past two months, he came to the Chui Gong Hall to ascend the throne every single day. He did his job well as a puppet and left a "diligent and intelligent" impression on the ministers and Zhao Zhen.
"Not bad!" Zhao Xin commented on himself.
Although, he was just a clay puppet in the Chui Gong Hall, and he never interfered with the affairs of the ministers. At most, he just pushed the boat along or hinted some ministers to do something he wanted to do.
This round of listening to the government has come to a successful conclusion.
"Uncle...Uncle..."
"Is this where you live?"
Next to Zhao Xin, a little boy wearing a monk's robe, with a red face and slightly rough skin, looked curiously at the Chunfang palace.
"Yes..." Zhao Xin turned around and said with a smile: "This is where my uncle lives on weekdays, and it is also where you, Dong Zhan, will study and live in the future..."
This little boy was Dong Fe, the son of Jiao Siluo, the great leader of Miaochuan, who was sent to Bianjing a few days ago.
Although he was less than nine years old, this Tubo prince had already been named the governor of Huizhou by the Song Dynasty. He was also appointed as the heir apparent by his father and became the successor of Tubo in the Qing Tang Dynasty.
More than two months ago, the Song Dynasty conferred Jiao Siluo as the Protector of Buddhism in the West, so Dong Fei was sent to Bianjing by his father.
However, Jiao Siluo played a trick and had the prince ordained in a temple in the Qingtang Dynasty, and then sent him to Bianjing.
The explanation given to the Song Dynasty was: Prince Dong Fei admired Buddhism and wanted to practice in Daxiangguo Temple.
Then the Song Dynasty naturally had no control over internal rhetoric.
So, in the name of coming to Daxiangguo Temple to chant sutras and practice, the prince actually saved the country and realized Nai's father's idea.
Only a few years later, after the prince has completed his studies and returned to China, he can use the power of the Song Dynasty to convince his two brothers and the Bon nobles entrenched in Miaochuan City, legitimately hold a meeting of various tribes, and become the Communist Party of the Qing and Tang Dynasties.
host.
Of course, in order to silence the Song Dynasty, the Jiedu envoy sent Dong Fei to the Song Dynasty and also sent a thousand standard war horses that could be ridden.
Each one is over four feet two inches tall, fat and strong. They are all war horses that were rarely seen in the Song Dynasty in previous years.
There were even two hundred stallions among them!
This made the group of shepherds smile with joy, and they immediately paid tribute to these horses like their ancestors.
And Dong Fei also received all the treatment his father wanted for him.
As soon as he arrived in Bianjing, Zhao Zhen personally summoned him, gave him a cassock and an alms bowl, named him General Zuo Qianniuwei, gave him imperial weapons, and allowed him to follow Zhao Xin.
Today is the day when Dong Xiang and Zhao Xin return to Chunfang.
"Uncle, uncle..."
"What's this?"
Dong Xiang was like a curious baby, surrounding Zhao Xin and asking questions.
"Uncle, uncle, why are you doing this?"
There are simply a hundred thousand whys.
But Zhao Xin is very patient and has been carefully answering the questions of this curious baby who has just entered Beijing.
This made the Tibetan nobles who were ordered to come to Bianjing to serve Dong Fei see this, and they were really moved and convinced.
"Sure enough, it's my uncle from the Han family, the heir to the emperor..." Looking at this situation, these people thought to themselves: "Your Majesty, you really came to Bianjing at the right time!"
"With such an education from my uncle from the Han family, why would your Highness the Prince worry about inheriting his father's legacy and bringing glory to Tubo in the future?"
So, Zhao Xin took the prince to the left hall of Chunfang, and then handed him to Chunfang professor Jia Xian, who was invited by Mr. Lu to give lectures.
Jia Xian is the author of "Shisuosuanshu" and is one of the greatest mathematicians of our time.
It's just that these days, mathematicians are doing worse than poets and poets.
At the very least, if you write good poems, songs, and poems, even if you don't pass the imperial examination, you can still pass the exams, win the favor of the top prostitutes, and earn a living.
This mathematician is struggling.
No matter how awesome you are, you can only go to Qintian Prison, become a minor official, get some salary, and barely support your family in Bianjing City.
Therefore, as soon as Mr. Lu invited him, Jia Xian immediately came to Chunfang to report.
Then, Jia Xian recommended several of his friends, and Lu Gongzhu accepted them all after consulting Zhao Xin.
Coupled with the talents that Zhao Xin himself recruited from various departments, the professors in Chunfang Zuodian are now full of talented people.
The person who taught literature and classics to the disciples of the noble family was Li Gou, a poor scholar who came to Bianjing to take the exam. After being recommended by Fu Bi, he was selected by Lu Gong for his work.
Zhao Xin only saw this person's name, so he specially promoted him to become the chief professor of Chunfang Zuodian, second only to Lu Gongzhu.
Because he is awesome!
One of the most famous educators in the Northern Song Dynasty.
However, Li Gou hated religion, especially Buddhism, so he did not come forward when Dong Zel came, but only sent Jia Xian to greet him.
Zhao Xin also specifically gave instructions that Dong Fei did not need to attend Li Gou's class.
To avoid being brainwashed by Li Gou and turning into a Tubo prince who does not believe in Buddhism, that would be funny.
Naturally, it was Jia Xian and his friends who taught mathematics and geometry.
In addition, Zhao Xin also invited Guange editor Ouyang Xiu, fellow practitioner Guo Shen and others to come to Chunfang to give lectures when they were free.
If there are smart people, they can conduct research based on the standpoints and ideologies of the professors of Chunfang Zuodian.
They will discover a surprising thing - from Li Gou to Lu Gongzhu, from Ouyang Xiu to visiting professors like Guo Shen, and even mathematicians like Jia Xian, they are all supporters of non-Mencius thought.
They are also all leaders in the classical prose movement.
Chunfang has become the base camp and the last fortress of the anti-Meng people!
This is of course intentional.
Whether Mencius’ thought is good or not, of course it is.
But it is too idealistic and not conducive to governance.
For rulers, any idea that may become an obstacle to rule cannot be used no matter how good it is.
After handing Dong Xiang over to Jia Xian, Zhao Xin gave Dong Xiang some instructions, telling him to study hard in Chunfang, chant sutras every day, and strive to become the successor of Buddha in the new era.
Then he told Jia Xian to tell the professor to respect the beliefs and customs of ethnic minorities.
We must pay attention to unity and do not let Prince Dong Fei feel strange and excluded here, let alone let anyone discriminate or even humiliate Dong Fei.
Looking back, Zhao Xin asked Gan Zhaoji to go to Daxiangguo Temple and invite several eminent monks to come to Chunfang every month to teach Dong Zhan how to practice Buddhism.
How can the future Zanpu not recite sutras?
Only by chanting sutras well can you make progress every day!
