Chapter 661: Unspeakable Embarrassment

Facing Yang Mingshen's questioning, Huiming couldn't help but turn pale.

The reason why he is so nervous is mainly because the Ming Dynasty has a very strict system for education, and enlightenment in the Ming Dynasty is actually to read and read and read words, generally learning the "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Family Names" and "Thousand Character Text".

This Enlightenment can't be taught randomly, it's going to be a problem.

Because there are many ideological aspects involved in this, such as etiquette, righteousness and shame, if it is to teach Journey to the West, it will definitely not involve these aspects.

This kind of thing can be big or small.

Guo Dan replied truthfully: "If you go back to Scholar Yang, there are some passages in the "Journey to the West" taught here. ”

After all, he's not an academy, and you're right to think it's a shelter.

"Journey to the West?"

Yang Mingshen immediately said angrily: "You are simply bold, this education is very important, and the imperial court also has clear regulations, how can you teach some knowledge indiscriminately, it is really unreasonable." ”

He can still command the economic field that he does not understand at all, let alone in education, he feels that he has supreme authority.

Li Zhi: They are all ready to move.

The grievances brought to them by the previous tariffs are worried that there is no place to vent.

This time, you Guo Dan hit the muzzle of the gun again.

Exercise! You guys are really deceiving people too much, it's been many years, if you really care about children's education, you should have come over and have a look, you have to bump into it to get mad, but you're really full of food.

Guo Dan secretly scolded angrily, if it was something else, he would have endured it, but he couldn't bear it, if it was changed, then the education fund would lose its meaning, he wanted to use the education fund to provide a steady stream of talents for industrial and commercial people.

"Don't worry, Scholar Yang, this is all arranged by me, and it has nothing to do with the abbot." Guo said with a smile.

Yang Ming snorted deeply: "You don't need to say it, the old man can also see that the abbot is highly respected, how can he teach these influent knowledge." ”

Hui Ming was embarrassed.

It's really interesting to say, the descendants are cloudy, Tang poems and Song poems are clear, but they were written in the Ming Dynasty, and the author did not get any status, unlike the Tang Dynasty and Song Dynasty, at that time, poetry should be written well, it is very respected.

It is very popular in the market, and even many ministers like to read it, but the mainstream culture guided by Shilin is still poetry and articles, which is difficult to get into the hall of elegance, and if you write it, it is not the same as if the article is well written.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to use "Journey to the West" as a textbook.

Wanli saw that Guo Dan's face was relaxed and fearless, but he didn't mention his worries, so he asked, "I don't know why you want to teach like this?" ”

Guo Dan hurriedly said: "If you go back to Your Majesty, the grass people are actually thinking about the country by doing this, and they don't want to worry about Your Majesty." ”

"Nonsense."

Li Zhi really couldn't help it, and stood up and said: "With "Journey to the West" as a Mongolian student, you still have the face to say that it is for the sake of the country?" ”

Guo smiled lightly: "Li Yushi, in this place of monks, the grass people don't dare to open their mouths to come, and the Buddha will blame them." ”

"You...!"

Li Zhi almost didn't bite his tongue.

Wanli was quite interested in hearing this, and said, "Then you should come and listen." ”

"Yes."

Guo Dan bowed his hand, thinking, this is what you forced me, and now my brother will teach you to be a man. Said: "Your Majesty, Caomin previously contracted the ...... of Weihui, Kaifeng, Zhangde, and Huaiqing. ”

Wanli was surprised: "What is the relationship between the two?" ”

Shen Shixing and the others who were watching the play on the side couldn't help but cheer up, what the hell is this kid going to do? How did it get to this?

When it comes to contracting, no one dares to slack off, but don't mess around, this kid has also contracted education, so let's die together.

"Back to Your Majesty's words, the two really have nothing to do with each other, the grass people just want to say it."

Guo Dan suddenly smiled and continued: "The grass people just want to say that the grass people have found a very, very interesting phenomenon in those places. ”

"Interesting phenomenon? What is the phenomenon? Wanli hurriedly asked.

Guo Dan said: "It's those who are idle in the city, except for the ruffians, they are showing off their talents, which can be said to be quite polarized." ”

Quiet!

Suddenly, there was silence in the clearing, and the sound of Na Lang's recitation seemed to have disappeared.

The air seems to be frozen.

Hui Ming was trembling, muttering something in his mouth, probably asking the Buddha for protection.

A ruffian? Talented?

If you compare the two, what is the difference between looking for death?

"You... What did you say? ”

Yang Mingshen's eyes widened, and he pointed at Guo Dan with his trembling fingers.

He couldn't believe that Guo Dan would say such a sentence.

That's not what a smart person should say.

Guo Dan showed a charming smile and said very clearly: "Most idle people are nothing more than ruffians and talents. ”

When Li Zhi heard this, he was ecstatic in his heart, you kid is really inflated, this time you planted it, and hurriedly said to Wanli: "Your Majesty, do you just let him make a big deal of nonsense here and slander the world's scholars?" ”

Yang Ming said deeply: "Your Majesty, if you don't treat Guo Dan's sin today, I'm afraid it will cause dissatisfaction among scholars all over the world." ”

"Please also ask Your Majesty to punish Guo Dan."

The ministers spoke in unison.

Including Wang Jiaping, Wang Xijue and others, they are also scholars, no matter what they think in their hearts, but if they don't speak out, how will they gain a foothold in the future.

Guo Dan really stabbed the hornet's nest.

Wanli faintly glared at Guo Dan, are you crazy? Pointing at Guo Dan, he said: "If you can't say a reason today, I will severely punish you." ”

"Please calm your anger."

Guo Dan bowed and said: "If it were somewhere else, the grass people might also say a few beautiful words, but the abbot had told the grass people several times before that in this monk's place, they can't talk nonsense, and the grass people can only tell the truth." ”

As soon as Huiming heard this, because Guo Dan wanted to throw the pot to him, he immediately knelt down like a force.

"Whew!"

Yang Ming was so angry that he just blew his beard and glared, he really didn't want to target Guo Dan, no matter who said this, he would definitely be annoyed and angry, and said: "You are obviously lying to confuse the public." ”

Guo smiled and said: "Scholar Yang doesn't need to be so excited, in fact, this matter is the best confirmation, Your Majesty only needs to go to the city or the suburbs, this look will show that if not, Your Majesty can cure the crime of the grass people." ”

Shen Shixing and Wang Xijue glanced at each other, their hands were in their sleeves, and they were silent.

Li Zhi is brows were tightly locked, and his mind was also thinking about this problem, because he hadn't paid much attention to this matter before, but now that he thought about it carefully, it seemed to be the case.

Wanli suddenly glanced at Zhang Whale and said, "Factory minister, is Guo Dan telling the truth?" ”

Zhang Jing hurriedly said: "Weichen is not too clear about this. ”

Our East Factory does not investigate these.

Yang Mingshen's expression was a little embarrassed, and he wondered in his heart, is this really the case? He glanced at the rest of the ministers again, and saw that they were all silent, and gradually understood in his heart that Guo Dan might not be talking nonsense.

In fact, if you think about it, you can think about it, these ordinary people are so busy every day, how can they have the time to be idle, and the number of gentlemen is relatively limited, and most of them play tall, and they don't necessarily wander around the city every day.

They are all called ruffians, and they must be idle.

Then most of the rest are scholars, and scholars study to gain fame, but the problem is that all the world's scholars are taking the imperial examination, and the positions that the imperial court can provide are extremely limited.

It's not that they are not excellent, it's just that the number of jinshi in the imperial court every three years is regulated, and now many jinshi have not yet become officials, not to mention that they are talented and promoted, and many people are tested for a lifetime until they die.

This can be seen from Weihui Mansion, which has made it easiest to recruit people in any industry since Guo Dan was contracted, that is, litigators and gentry. The construction of the Third Hospital was completed almost instantly, because there was already a large number of talent reserves in this area.

Xue Wenqing was still an official, and he waited for a whole year, and he didn't enter until the second expansion of the litigation court.

The sad thing is that the atmosphere of "everything is inferior, only reading is high" has made these people become high-eyed and low-handed, they just want to be officials, and other industries can't look down on them, so they all become idle people.

Originally, they had ambitions, but they became moths of the country.

Very sad.

Wanli was silent for a while before asking, "Even so, what does this have to do with you teaching "Journey to the West"?" ”

Guo Dan hurriedly said: "Back to Your Majesty, the grass people know that Your Majesty has the world's scholars in mind, and these days and nights, they must be thinking about a way out for those who can't enter the imperial court as officials, so the grass people can't bear to add any more burdens to Your Majesty, so they didn't teach them the Four Books and Five Classics, and encouraged them to participate in the imperial examination, but let them learn to read and write as soon as possible, and then go to work."

According to our statistics, the talents cultivated by the education fund have so far generated at least 50,000 taels of tax revenue for the imperial court. ”

Wanli's eyes widened and said, "Are you serious?" ”

This analysis angle is relatively new!

From the perspective of taxation, he is deeply interested in this.

"The grass people dare to guarantee that this tax is only a lot more."

Guo Dan paused slightly, showed regret on his face, sighed, and said: "It's a pity that it has not been able to make up for the resources consumed by those talented people for the time being, but Your Majesty can rest assured, according to the estimation of the grass people, it will not be long before the tax generated by the education fund for the imperial court is enough to support those who have failed to become officials in the court." ”

At this moment, a fresh breeze blew and blew their faces red.

It's so embarrassing!
