Germany was the first country in the world to implement universal compulsory education, and the historical Kingdom of Prussia was the first to implement universal compulsory education.

In addition to establishing a large and well-developed army and court institutions, the first Prussian king of the Hohenzollern dynasty, Friedrich Wilhelm I, encouraged the development of science and the arts. During his reign, he founded a number of universities, which led to the economic and cultural progress of Rus.

In 1717 he promulgated a law that stated that "all minors, male and female, high and low, must be educated."

After Wilhelm I's son, Friedrich II, succeeded to the throne, he firmly implemented the basic state policy of compulsory education, and personally signed the world's first book on August 12, 1763.

At the end of the 19th century, only 0.05% of children in Germany did not reach the literacy level, and the level of compulsory education in Germany was far ahead of the rest of Europe.

Compulsory education has been promoted, national education has been reformed, textbooks have been drawn up for schools, teaching procedures have been established for teachers, and senior secondary schools have been developed on the basis of junior high schools.

Through education, we can enhance the patriotism in the hearts of the people, know the civilization of their own nation, and know more about courtesy, righteousness, honesty and shame, and do something and do nothing.

"Big guy, go and see, Xianggong is coming to the ferry!"

I don't know who shouted there, and countless people rushed to the ferry.

"This brother, what is the prince, is he a local celebrity in Hebei, or an official in other places?"

A foreigner who came to the Daimyo's Mansion for the first time did not understand the mystery.

"At first glance, it's an outsider!"

The coolie's face was gloomy: "Xianggong is the famous and invincible Wang Song Wang Xianggong, now you should understand!"

The stranger suddenly realized: "It turned out to be Wang Songxianggong, which is famous in the world and known to everyone."

The people on the ferry rushed in the direction where Wang Song was, and everyone scrambled just to catch a glimpse of the prince in the city.

Wang Song stood on a section of the newly built cement official road, and several sergeants around him tried their best to stop the people rushing forward, and the water around him was already crowded.

He also had no choice. When I came out today, I wanted to observe the people's situation and see the newly built official roads and water conservancy ditches outside, but I didn't expect to be recognized.

Since the First World War in Fuzhou, the scar on his forehead has become the most eye-catching symbol on his body, and everyone knows about the people of Lianghe.

The ragged people were obviously "insulting the people and respecting the officials", and when they reached two or three meters around Wang Song, they knelt down one after another. Except for some scholars and well-informed people who bowed deeply, knelt on the ferry.

"Folks, hurry up, hurry up!"

Wang Song was sweating, and his clothes were already soaked, but he couldn't stand such a warm scene.

"Wang Xianggong, on such a hot day, why did you come out, you have to take care of your body and bones!"

"Xianggong, Bodhisattva bless, you want to live a thousand years, long live a thousand years!"

"Wang Xianggong, Fanzi is cruel and unkind, you have to lead our loyal and righteous soldiers and drive them out!"

"Xianggong Wang, the court doesn't care about us, you can't ignore it!"

Wang Song hurriedly waved his hand, asked his subordinates to help the people, and shouted loudly.

"Folks, get up, don't get sunburned!"

Forced to this part, Wang Song can only take advantage of the trend and be more close to the people.

He said to the guard next to him: "Hebei Xinchuang, the people who suffer are the poor people. Go and tell the people of the ferry department that from today onwards, they will cook soup on the ferry without interruption every day and supply it to the people on the ferry. ”

The guards took the order and went away, and the people fell to their knees again, and the mountain cried out for long live.

The world is so big, and only Wang Song sincerely cares about these poor people.

"Everybody, get up. I promise you that I will definitely drive out all the thieves, so that everyone can live a good life, everyone can rest assured!"

Wang Song was sweating profusely, and his chest was wet. Several old men in the crowd stood up, turned around and shouted.

"Let's go and get busy, if you keep kneeling here, the prince will be sunburned. Everyone's gone!"

The people stood up and slowly dispersed. Wang Song couldn't help but shake his head, walked forward slowly, and smiled bitterly at Li Ruoxu next to him: "Gong Li, people are really afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong." You see, I'm out now, and it's not convenient to go anywhere. It's not easy. ”

Li Ruoxu said with emotion: "The love of the people is enough to be famous through the ages." The people love Xianggong, and it is also from the bottom of their hearts. As the saying goes, those who win the hearts of the people win the world, and the people of the two rivers are like this, and it is more difficult for the Jin people to occupy the two rivers than to ascend to the sky!"

"The soldiers in the front are still fighting bloodily, and the people in the rear are still working hard."

Wang Song pointed to the people who were busy working under the scorching sun, and said in a deep voice: "There are many relatives and friends of the soldiers, the soldiers are throwing their heads and spilling blood, but their relatives are living hard, can they be stable in their hearts?" Can you and I bear the weakness and the poor? ”

On a hot day, Li Ruoxu's face became hot.

People-oriented is easier said than done, but it is the opposite. This has been the case for thousands of years.

"I wonder if you noticed what happened just now?"

Wang Song seemed to be thoughtful, and his eyes were leisurely.

"Those who bow down are the poor people, and those who bow down are scholars or gentry and are powerful. Why is this so, it is not that compared with ordinary people, these people are "well-informed""

This is what Xianggong said about "opening up the wisdom of the people". ”

"The people" can be "made by it". No, let it be known. The people are law-abiding and kind, and they don't have to be too restrictive. The people are ignorant and violent, and they are to be punished and taught so that they may know what is wrong. This is the Confucian concept of fraternity and benevolence. ”

Wang Song nodded and explained Li Ruoxu's answer.

"The philosophical words of the sages have become, when they reach the emperors of the past dynasties: the people can make it, but they can't make it known. Let the people follow the path of the government, and let them not know the reason. The terrible foolish people are all selfish. ”

Wang Song took a long breath. Confucianism has become a crooked theory, but it is just bright and bright, and it has been cited by the emperors of previous dynasties as the art of the emperor. If you are excessively weak, poor, and foolish, you will inevitably set yourself on fire and suffer for yourself.

It seems that the introduction of punctuation marks is inevitable and imperative.

"Gollum", a round ball rolled over and landed right at Wang Song's feet. Wang Song lowered his body and picked it up.

"That's my squatting, give it back to me!"

The guards stopped the two ragged children outside, and it looked like the ball was theirs.

Wang Song raised his head and saw that on the cement road not far in front of him, there was a group of children of the same dress and age waiting.

Kids around ten years old, shouldn't they be in class?

Could it be that it's summer vacation now?

Wang Song beckoned, and the guards let the two children in.

"This is the prince of the Daimyo Mansion, don't come forward and see it soon!"

Seeing that the children had no manners, the guard shouted loudly.

"Don't be so loud, don't scare the kids!"

Wang Song drank the guards and asked the two timid children in front of him, "Don't be afraid! What do you parents do, come out to play on such a hot day, isn't it hot?"

The fat child plucked up the courage and said: "Back to the prince, the little parents are working on this ferry, and the little ones have nothing to do, so they are playing here, which alarmed the prince Wang, and I hope that the prince will not blame!"

Wang Song nodded and said with a smile: "Do you have a school?"

"I have a lot of work at home, and I have to help, and I don't go to school."

The children picked up the ball and left, Wang Song frowned, his eyes were leisurely, as if he was thoughtful.

Looking at the children who were playing happily in the distance, Li Ruoxu sighed with emotion: "Xianggong, the villain also bowed with his brothers when he was a child, just like these children. Time flies like a white horse, thirty or forty years have passed, red face and white hair, youth is no more, and thinking about it is sentimental!"

Wang Song clapped his hands and frowned.

"Li Gong's family of six brothers is quite lively to play. Unlike the official, there are only two brothers, who can only dance guns and sticks since they were children, and they have never played Keju. ”

In later life, he played football, although it was the same, after all, there were still many differences.

"Xianggong, you saw these children and felt compassion. This may be the reason why Xianggong wants to build a school and open up the wisdom of the people. ”

Wang Song nodded. Li Ruoxu's words can be said to speak to his heart.

"They are the future of the nation, and they cannot be ignorant. You and I are responsible for their future. ”

"I'm afraid of those who read. Xianggong abolished the imperial examination and cut off their career of ascension, and they still gritted their teeth. ”

Li Ruoxu's words made Wang Song a little surprised. He thinks he has done a lot of things, why are there so many people who are not satisfied?

"The official has set up an education department, a vocational agency, an administrative school, and all walks of life, and has absorbed many scholars, and it can even be said that it far exceeds the imperial examination. Why are so many people still dissatisfied? ”

Li Ruoxu smiled lightly and said word by word, and Wang Song suddenly realized.

The newly established school, with its age restrictions, has made it basically impossible for people over 30 years old to study. There is no age limit for the imperial imperial examination, which is one of the important reasons, for these scholars over 30 years old who have not been selected, it is too cruel.

"Many readers, who have studied the Four Books and Five Classics all their lives, have formed a pattern. Now I still have to learn something new, such as arithmetic, geography, history, and even some strange and clever things, of course, I am not competent, and I am full of complaints. ”

Li Ruoxu's words were coldly denied by Wang Song.

"The imperial examination, a few people can be selected in a year in the midst of the changes of the times, should actively seek change, keep pace with the times, if you are stubborn, holding the old yellow calendar, you can only be ruthlessly abandoned by the times!"

If you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be able to do it for a long time. It is blessed by God, and there is no disadvantage. If you can't change, you can only adapt, and history will not stop because of any individual.

Li Ruoxu looked at Wang Song's determined expression and shook his head slightly. Once Wang Song decided to do something, the eight cows couldn't pull it back.

Feeling that the conversation between the two was a little heavy, Li Ruoxu changed the topic.

"Xianggong, when will the old lady and brother come over?"

Wang Song shook his head and said: "The so-called homeland is difficult to leave, and I haven't received a letter from home recently, so I really don't know what my home looks like."

Speaking of which, Wang Song actually doesn't have much affection for his mother and brother in this life. Whether it is a brother or a mother, the days they stay together are only a few days at most, and it is difficult to say that there is any brotherhood, and the mother-son relationship is deep.

However, after recovering from his injuries, he still wrote back from time to time, explaining his situation to the so-called family.

After all, nominally, they are still a family.

Others say that it is difficult for him to be loyal and filial at the same time, and he gave up his small family for the sake of the people, but in fact, he is difficult to speak. In a way, even if he goes back, he is restrained.
