Chapter 669: The Family's Coping Methods
The imperial court prepared to set up the Tang Normal College, and allocated 10% of the tax revenue as education funds.
The news spread quickly.
"Brother Zheng, what do you think about this?"
When Wang Jie learned that Li Kuan proposed to Li Shimin to set up a Ministry of Education to vigorously promote education in various state capitals, he made an appointment with Zheng Hai, Cui Qing, and Lu Xuan.
Obviously, if the imperial court really did what Li Kuan proposed, the possibility of the children of the poor and ordinary people participating in the imperial examination would be greatly improved.
If the reform of the imperial examination system is cooperated with in the future, it will be difficult for the family to monopolize the positions of officials at all levels of the imperial court.
"Brother Wang, His Royal Highness the King of Chu is a Yang conspiracy. There is no way to directly oppose the idea of allowing more people to have the opportunity to go to school and let more people participate in the imperial examination. β
Zheng Hai has passed the age of impulsiveness.
Although this matter also made him very worried, he couldn't see it on his face at all.
"Brother Zheng is right, His Royal Highness the King of Chu is now performing a yang scheme, and people are openly telling everyone what the court is going to do next. If it had been more than ten years ago, if such a large-scale promotion of education had been carried out, the household department would not have been able to come up with so much money. However, I have heard that this year's tax revenue has increased by more than 10 percent compared with last year, which is equivalent to millions of extra dollars that the imperial court can use out of thin air next year. β
Cui Qing's words made everyone a little depressed.
If you have money, some people are powerful, how can you oppose this policy?
"I do have an idea, if it can be successfully implemented, maybe it can turn bad things into good things, and let His Royal Highness the King of Chu suffer a loss."
Lu Xuan, who was on the side, attracted everyone's attention as soon as he opened his mouth.
Without him, this is really a surprise.
Wang Jie: "Brother Lu, listen up!" β
Zheng Hai: "Oh, what is Brother Lu's opinion?" β
Cui Qing: "Could it be that Brother Lu has a way to influence His Royal Highness the King of Chu?" β
Lu Xuan smiled and said, "The promotion of education is definitely a good thing for the imperial court; But for our families, it doesn't matter if it's good or bad, the key is to see who has the initiative to promote it. If the students in each state capital are controlled by people from our major families, then these students will actually become the peripheral disciples of each family in disguise, and maybe they will be able to further control the government. However, if this education and promotion is completely in the hands of His Royal Highness the King of Chu, then over time, we will not have a good life. β
Lu Xuan's implication is very clear, that is, to let everyone unite together to control the academies in the state capitals.
Teaching and educating people, if the people who teach are the children and protΓ©gΓ©s of several great families, then aren't the disciples taught by several great families?
The five surnames and seven hopes will completely become the top existence of Datang.
"It would be good if we could control the academies in the state capitals. But except for the state capital where several of our families are located, it is very difficult for us to completely master an academy in other places. If the name is not right, how can His Royal Highness the King of Chu let us succeed so easily? β
Cui Qing was not carried away by Lu Xuan's words.
He has suffered a lot of losses in the hands of Li Kuan, and he doesn't think Li Kuan is so easy to handle.
"Brother Cui, the family teacher Kong Yingda is the son of the country's priest wine, and there are nearly 10,000 prisoners in it, almost all of whom are the sons of noble families; Guozijian itself has taken on a large part of the educational management function, and if we take this opportunity to let the newly established Ministry of Education of Guozijian system, and at the same time arrange for Guozijian's supervisors and teachers to go to the state capitals to form academies, many impossible things will become possible. β
Lu Xuan felt that it was too wise for the family to help him choose Kong Yingda as a teacher.
Although Kong Yingda's scholarly attainments are not the strongest in Chang'an City, with the bonus of the thirty-first grandson of Confucius, he successfully sat firmly in the position of the country's priest and became a pivotal figure in the literary world of Chang'an City.
If he comes forward to snatch various positions in the Ministry of Education, the probability of success is still very high.
"Brother Lu can give it a try, but I always think that His Royal Highness the King of Chu will not let us mess up this matter so easily."
Cui Qing felt that Li Kuan's operation was becoming more and more incomprehensible.
"Okay, then let's all take action. His Royal Highness the King of Chu's proposal, but it is aimed at the lifeblood of our family, although His Majesty pretends to say that he will review it again, in fact, it will definitely be passed smoothly in the end, so don't wait and see. β
Needless to say, the hatred between Wang Jie and Li Kuan is an old story from many years ago.
However, every time Li Kuan is mentioned, even Wang Jie, who is usually very good at qi cultivation, can't help but scold a few sentences.
β¦β¦
With goose feathers and heavy snow flying all over the sky, there are still a group of students in Guanshishan Academy who are studying hard.
Soon it will usher in the spring of the sixteenth year of Zhenguan.
Nowadays, the status of Jinshi in several sections is rising, and those who are among the best have the opportunity to stay directly in the capital as high-ranking officials, which can be described as a step to the sky.
"Xu joins the army, next month's spring festival is the largest number of participants in our academy, and this time, we have students in both the Ming Jing and Jinshi courses who hope to be on the list, and it is likely to be the best year for our academy in the past."
Liu Jie followed behind Xu Jingzong and walked around the Guanshishan Academy.
All the students who will participate in next year's spring festival will not leave the academy, but will make the final sprint under the leadership of the teachings.
Grinding guns in the battle can at least play some psychological comfort.
"Wise arithmetic and Ming medicine are our traditional strengths, so I'm not too worried; The results of the Ming Law Department are also relatively stable every year, so as not to embarrass the college; Now I hope that this Jinshi Department and the Ming Jing Department can come back with a champion, and the people in the province always say that our Guanshishan Academy's madrasa is not good! β
Xu Jingzong now really regards Guanshishan Academy as his home, and he hopes that the academy will become better and better.
Of course, the better the academy becomes, the brighter his future will be.
"His Royal Highness the King of Chu's proud disciple personally participated in the Jinshi Branch, and I think there is still a great hope of impacting the champion."
Liu Jie naturally knew very well that Di Renjie had also signed up for this year's Jinshi Branch, and he was still going for the champion.
"I am naturally confident in Huaiying's level, but the champion is half by strength, and half by luck."
"The imperial court is now paying more and more attention to the imperial examination, and the requirements for the examination and examination of questions are getting higher and higher. Huaiying has the strength to impact the champion, and his luck will not be bad. β
"I hope so, otherwise the results of the academy will be unsatisfactory every year, and the teachings in it will probably be poached by other academies."
Some of the teachings of Weishui Academy and Qujiang Academy were recruited from among the students who graduated from Guanshishan Academy.
Some are even directly the teachings of the Guanshishan Academy.
Xu Jingzong still has a good understanding of this situation.
