Although he didn't have any worries about Guo Peng's policy itself, Guo Jia still didn't know anything about the punctuation marks or anything.

It's not uncommon to see things like this.

Guo Jia, who was worried that he was doing something wrong, was a little worried.

"What is punctuation? We've never heard of it. ”

Guo Jia said: "And now that I think about it, Uncle Zuo donated paper in June, which may have been promoted by His Majesty himself, and after the papermaking technology was perfected, the number of papers increased greatly and the price dropped sharply."

I've heard that many scholars' homes have complained that they have bought a lot of high-priced Zuobo paper to store at home, and it is really much easier to use than gradually, and many people have bought it. ”

"As a result, Zuo Bo suddenly said that the papermaking technology was mature and could produce a large amount of cheap paper, and the price of paper plummeted, and they couldn't imagine that such a thing would happen, so they felt that they had suffered a big loss......

Cao Cao frowned: "Actually, Fengxiao, my family also bought a lot." ”

"Me too."

Guo Jia nodded with a bad face.

The two were silent for a moment.

"Fengxiao, you say, how dare a mere Zuo Bo risk offending so many people to publicize the improvement of papermaking?"

Cao Cao suddenly realized the crux of the problem.

Guo Jia's face was panicked, he hurriedly looked around, put his index finger in front of his mouth, and said in a low voice: "It's good that you know, don't talk about it, be careful of getting into trouble." ”

Cao Cao originally thought that this matter was not a big deal, it was just a loss of money, and it was not a big deal, but when Guo Jia said this, he understood.

I'm afraid that someone is manipulating the direction of this matter behind the scenes.

From the maturity of papermaking to the mass production of paper, to the emperor's summoning of representatives of several major families, and then to the current earth-shattering decree.

Cao Cao finally understood what was going on.

But he still has one more mystery that has not been solved.

"But the improvement of papermaking technology should not be a matter of a while, the former Han Dynasty to the present, Fengxiao, this matter ......"

"Stop here, Mengde, this matter is beneficial to you and my family, you don't know anything, I don't know anything, what Your Majesty says is what it is, understand?"

Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao sternly, for fear that he would say something that he shouldn't say.

This matter is a good thing for Guo Jia, who was born in the royal family, and Cao Cao, a representative figure of the relatives.

They sit in different places with their butts, they don't have to be sad at all, they don't have to panic at all, they are the basic plate of the emperor's foundation, and the emperor will not attack them if he attacks anyone.

So, they just need to call without brains, and don't say anything else, just act as if they don't know anything.

To sum up, whatever His Majesty says, it is what it is, and whatever His Majesty asks him to do, they will do.

It's that simple.

Cao Cao was relieved and nodded.

"Yes."

After saying that, the two of them lowered their heads, put their hands in front of them, and walked on the way to meet the emperor like everyone else, like ordinary people without any outstanding colors.

Soon, a group of ministers arrived in front of the side hall of Fengtian Hall and asked Su Yuan, who was guarding the palace, to meet the emperor.

Cheng Yu, Cao Cao and Xi Zhong stepped forward to ask to see the emperor, and Su Yuan went to report.

After a while, the door of the palace opened, and Su Yuan beckoned the ministers to enter together.

After entering, as soon as they saw the emperor's face, they were given a new thread-bound book.

The blue cover has a white box in the upper left corner with the title of the book written in the box.

Or "Shangshu", or "Spring and Autumn", or "Li".

Paper, the current situation, after opening it, you can see that the very neat and upright small block letters exist on the paper from right to left and from top to bottom.

Then there are the strange symbols, such as [,], [. ], as well as [""] and [:] and the like.

They don't know what these symbols are, but they can see that after being separated by these symbols, reading becomes very easy, and they can read books without reading sentences, reading sentence by sentence, without the slightest jerky and unpleasant feeling, at a glance.

It feels like their ability to break sentences after years of practice has suddenly become useless.

Even if you don't need to learn to read sentences, as long as you are literate, as long as you hold such a book, you can read any classic.

At this time, listening to the teacher talk a little bit about the scriptures and make notes, it is simply twice the result with half the effort, and I don't know how many times easier it is compared to the previous oral education model.

It seems that what the emperor said is not wrong at all, there is really nothing wrong at all, he really got the right to interpret and teach the classics from the hands of several major families, and how the classics should be interpreted from now on is up to the emperor.

What kind of deal did he make with those families?

But none of that matters.

The important thing is that from now on, he will educate his students in Taixue in this way.

The Hanmen and the Scholars together!

There are even Li Shu's children!

Many officials gasped and looked at each other, and everyone could see the surprise and even the slightest fear in each other's eyes.

"How about it, the [books] made by Lone people are not bad, stack the paper together, use the way of sewing clothes, and bind these papers with threads to make them into books, so that it is very light to hold in your hand, and a book can write down a whole book of classics, which is many times cheaper and more convenient than bamboo slips."

Guo Peng smiled and raised a copy of "Shangshu" in his hand: "It's a pity that the speed of copying by the lonely person is a bit slow, and it will take some time to make it a copy for every student in Taixue, but it doesn't matter, the book is already there, and Lone plans to educate students like this in Taixue in the future, thinking about it, it will definitely be much better than before." ”

The Emperor's words sounded very lighthearted, and he did not answer the biggest doubts in the minds of the courtiers - when did this start to be planned, and why did it hide it from us?

But the emperor didn't say anything, and none of them dared to ask.

Cheng Yu definitely didn't dare, Xi Zhong didn't dare, Cao Cao didn't dare, the bigwigs of the three main power departments didn't dare, and the heads and officials of the other departments behind them certainly didn't dare.

Naturally, the families of these officials themselves are also involved and it is difficult to get out, and they are still quite concerned about this matter, and now they want to ask but dare not ask, and the whole person is very anxious.

So the situation is a bit of a stalemate.

Until Guo Jia stepped forward.

"Your Majesty, the stakes are here, and the matter is too involved, I don't know if Your Majesty is completely sure."

Guo Peng understood what Guo Jia meant.

"This matter, Lone has a complete grasp, the specific inconvenience to say, you don't need to know, but you just need to know, Lone, to abolish private learning, rejuvenate public schools, there is no need for the existence of family laws from now on, if you want to study, you have to go to the public school established by the government to study.

And in this matter, Gu has reached a consensus with Yuan Qing and Xun Qing, they are well aware of the righteousness, and deeply understand Gu's painstaking efforts, so they decided to take the initiative to hand over the classics to Lone, take a back seat, and fully assist Lone to build a public school.

Of course, the representative of this public school is Taixue, set up Taixue, build it well, let everyone who reads it, know how good Taixue is, and then restore the local school palace and school step by step, and restore the order of the public school. ”

Guo Peng explained a little.

The school of the palace is too much to learn or something, and it itself existed in the period before the two Han Dynasty, including the period before the two Han Dynasty, and it also existed for the purpose of popularizing education.

However, the lack of hard needs such as paper and printing technology has never been able to really break the monopoly of education, and as a result, private education has become popular and a small range of elite education has been carried out.

If the education that is supposed to educate the people becomes a luxury, and then monopolizes it, the birth of the school valve is just around the corner.

In addition, in the chaos of the late Han Dynasty, Dong Zhuo burned Luoyang to destroy Taixue, and a large number of Taixue students flowed into private schools and even private schools of local warlords, such as Liu Biao's academic hall.

Guo's Linzi School Palace and later Yecheng School Palace developed and grew under this background, and then restored to today's Taixue.

Breaking the status quo of private education, vigorously promoting the existence of public schools under the control of the government, improving the educational resources and quality of public schools, and allowing students to come from public schools instead of private schools, will greatly reverse the future.
