It’s the end of the year, and the flavor of the new year is getting stronger.
The annual cleaning has started again in Zhaode Square, and everyone is busy. Yang Lin can't even find a place to stand.
Several students came to visit with their own gifts. Yang Lin took them to the courtyard and asked them one by one to tell what they had learned.
As the eldest disciple, Wu Min was the first to say: "What my teacher said is insightful and knowledgeable. We can gain something by thinking about the things we have experienced and the things we encounter."
Yang Lin nodded, "You can teach me, but I have to rely on you to carry forward Lao Tzu's teachings and spread them."
Yuan Tingzhi was relatively honest. When it was his turn, he bowed to Yang Lin first, and then said: "To govern a people, you must have a rough understanding of farmland, water conservancy, minerals, and transportation. If you want to benefit the people, you must not have high ambitions and low intentions."
Yang Lin gave him an encouraging look. Now it seems that this guy can be an official.
Ma Kuo couldn't wait any longer, so he stood up excitedly, clasped his fists and said: "Teacher, I only know what I have learned on paper, but I know that I have to practice it. When studying knowledge, you cannot read rotely, but you must learn and apply it lively and practice it. Students think that
"Practice is greater than knowledge, and practice is the way to sainthood."
Yu Wenxuzhong stood up and continued: "Zichong is right. Just like this battle formation strategy, even if you are familiar with the art of war, it is not as good as having experienced battle formations for a long time. Major events in the world are changing rapidly, and you can only grasp the context by being in it.
, so that you can be handy.”
Yang Lin laughed, stepped forward and patted the two people on the shoulders, saying, "I hope you will make great achievements in the future."
Ma Kuo and Yu Wenxuzhong looked at each other and were very excited. Both of them performed well in the subsequent Jingkang incident.
Ma Kuo, a member of the Xishan Heshangdong Rebel Army, resisted the Jin Dynasty and was captured. After escaping, he organized the Wuma Mountain Rebel Army and was promoted to the leader of the various rebel armies in Hedong and Hebei.
Yu Wenxuzhong was even more outrageous. After Jingkang, he resolutely stepped forward to serve as an envoy to the Kingdom of Jin. After being detained, he became an official in the Kingdom of Jin. He became a special official and was appointed Minister of the Ministry of Rites. He was granted the title of Duke of the Founding of Hanoi County and was called a national teacher by the entire Jin Kingdom.
When the Jin Dynasty was discussing the Southern Expedition, the Imperial Preceptor would always tell the same old story, telling the Jin people to use their fingers to calculate the plan. It would cost money to go to the expedition, and the effort would not recoup the cost. It would be better to have fun in the north. Such words resonated with many Jurchen nobles.
.
The Jin Dynasty gradually showed the mentality of negotiating peace with the Southern Song Dynasty. When the Jurchens were at their strongest, Yu Wenxuzhong tried his best to hold back the enemy's lair, which to a large extent gave the Song Dynasty a precious breathing space after crossing to the south.
From the beginning, Yu Wenxuzhong planned to use his official position to cooperate inside and outside to help the Song Dynasty regain his homeland. Unfortunately, he met Zhao Gou and Qin Hui. Not only did they inform the Jin people in advance when he committed an incident, but they also
More than 200 members of his family were sent to the Jin Dynasty.
Betrayed by the emperor and prime minister of the Song Dynasty, in desperation, Yu Wenxuzhong still wanted to help the Song Dynasty, so he took the emperor hostage while Jin Xizong was worshiping heaven. Unfortunately, he failed in the end. The Jin people locked Yuwen's family in a room.
More than 200 members of Yuwen's family were burned alive.
Yu Wenxuzhong once secretly reported to Zhao Gou, hoping that the whole family was killed by the rebels as an excuse not to send him over. Yuwen Zhongxu's son also wrote to the emperor hoping not to send his family to the Kingdom of Jin. However, under the manipulation of Song Gaozong and Qin Hui,
All Yu Wenxuzhong's family members were sent to the Kingdom of Jin, including young and old.
When I arrived at Cai Sui, I saw that all four senior brothers had been affirmed by the teacher. I felt a little nervous and stood up and said: "Teacher, students think that in order to learn, you need to always examine your discipline, reflect on your sincerity, understand your own shortcomings, and what you experience in work.
It is filial piety, and you can understand what brotherhood is by serving your brothers. Only when you finally achieve success in self-cultivation can you be loyal to your country."
After so many days of observation, Yang Lin had long discovered that Cai Jing's son was simply an upright gentleman. Just like himself a few years ago when he had not time-traveled and fused, his personal moral character was impeccable. I really don't know how he managed to survive the teachings of Cai Jing and Cai You.
Next, it looks like this
Yang Lin thought to himself that the dissemination of his doctrines had to rely on people like Wu Min and Cai Sui. After all, for scholars, such people have charisma and can win everyone's recognition and admiration.
Yang Lin asked Jin'er who was outside the pavilion to come over and whispered. After a while, Li Yunniang came over with several servants, each carrying several packages.
"The end of the year has come. I will give you half a month's holiday. Come back to Zhaodefang after the Lantern Festival."
After Yang Lin left, everyone opened the package and saw a thousand-guan bank note, two purple halo pens, and five pieces of She County tobacco ink inside.
The teacher's handiwork is amazing. At this time, respecting the teacher's teachings and respecting the teacher's teachings cannot be turned down, even if the teacher gives you a gift.
For Cai Sui, this money was fine, almost as much as his own expenses, but for the other four, it was a windfall from heaven.
For an ordinary person, one thousand guan may be more money than they can spend in a lifetime, and even an ordinary wealthy person cannot afford it easily.
Yang Lin had great hopes for these disciples and really hoped that they could serve as a clean stream to cleanse the civil servants of the Song Dynasty. He would certainly not let them worry about their livelihood.
Now in the court of the Song Dynasty, Cai Jing was trying his best to be a virtuous prime minister because he had nothing else to seek. Various new policies hit the root of the problem. Yang Lin asked himself that in that official position, he would definitely not be as good as Cai Jing. Even if he did
If there is greed and nepotism, it can be tolerated.
Don't think that just any modern person who travels back in time to ancient times can be omnipotent. In fact, even a county magistrate may not be able to do a good job for you.
Yang Lin has now completed the border layout and is waiting for the spring to use Tubo as a test stone to train troops.
Instead of intervening and causing another round of fighting with Cai Jing to delay the New Deal, it is better to concentrate on teaching students.
The scholar-bureaucrats of the Song Dynasty were rotten from the roots. Instead of wasting time, it would be better to create new roots.
After seeing off a few students, Yang Lin felt relaxed. Being a teacher was very tiring and he had to put on airs all the time.
Seeing his shoulders slump, Yun Niang covered her mouth and laughed, jokingly: "I have never seen Dalang look so serious."
Yang Lin glared at her angrily, looked at her heavy fat body, and thought to himself that he would take care of you later, and sighed and asked: "Are you ready for your Majesty's income and Cai's property?
"
At the end of the year, Yang Lin, who is sitting in his current position, has not many people giving gifts.
Although he got rid of Cai Jing and went it alone, he still couldn't be stingy with the annual gifts he should receive. After all, he was the prime minister of the dynasty, and if he continued to fight against him, he would probably not be able to do anything.
Yun Niang nodded and said: "It's already installed. Whenever Da Lang gives the order, I will ask Yang San to send it."
