Mofu!

When a carriage slowly stopped in front of the gate of Mofu, Morton opened the door, and suddenly a cold air hit his face.

"The young master is back!"

Ziyi, who had been waiting in front of the Mo family for a long time, couldn't help screaming excitedly, and suddenly everyone in the Mo Mansion came out one after another.

"Congratulations on the return of the owner!" Xu Jie arched his hand.

"Six subjects and one first! The young master is mighty! Ziyi's face was also flushed with excitement, and he looked proud.

The people of Mofu are proud of each other, and the news that Merton won the top six of the country's eunuchs came, and the entire Mofu people also had a great face, and they were proud of Merton.

Merton returned to Mofu and was immediately treated like a hero.

"It's just an exam." Merton waved his hand and said with some discomfort.

"The young master must have spent a lot of brain power these days, and the house has already prepared delicious food, so the young master must make up for it!" Even Uncle Yu made a special trip from the Yuzhuangyuan Building to congratulate Merton.

"Hahaha, Uncle Yu's craftsmanship still needs to be said, the kid can't wait." Merton laughed.

Soon, the entire Mo Mansion was bustling and fell into a sea of festivities.

Nothing was said all night, and the next day, until three o'clock in the morning, Merton yawned and walked out of the room.

"Mo boy, I didn't get up until three o'clock in the morning, how can I become a role model for the young people in Chang'an City!" There was a reprimanding voice.

Merton looked at it, and it turned out to be Master Li coming,

"It turned out to be a teacher, and Merton was taught!" Merton bowed.

"Don't! The old man can't afford your teacher, and he can't teach a student like you! Li Fuzi suddenly seemed to be furious, and hurriedly avoided it.

Merton was stunned for a moment and said, "How could that be?" If you are a teacher for one day and a father for life, how can a child forget the teachings of his master? ”

The corner of Li Fuzi's mouth sneered: "Pull it down, the old man can't teach a disciple like you, I think the old man just taught you a few "Mozi" according to the book, and you still follow the old man in the carpenter's room most of the time, and the old man doesn't receive this credit." ”

If other masters could meet a disciple like Merton, they would definitely be overjoyed, and they would keep putting gold on their faces and taking all the credit for themselves, but the strange Confucian Master Li disdained this, since Merton's achievements today were not taught by him, he naturally would not take the credit.

Not to mention that at that time, even now the children of the Mo family go to school, and most of them are mainly literate, learning the doctrine of the Mo family, and he is also very clear about the characteristics of the Mo family education, that is, the Mojia village distributes rich money and hires some masters to teach the children of the Mo family, although the children of the Mo family also respect these masters, but there is absolutely no Confucian kind of strict teacher training of being a teacher for one day and a father for life, and the prince of heaven and earth.

"If you really think about the old love, you should just call me Master!" Li Fuzi sighed.

Merton bowed respectfully to Master Li and said, "Meet Master!" ”

Li Fuzi straightened his body and said with a straight face: "With this sentence, the old man is enough to be happy with his life." ”

in the living room.

Merton and Li Fuzi sat opposite each other, and Ziyi served tea and waited on the side.

"I don't know why the master came here today, but there is something wrong with the ink magazine?" Merton asked, knowing that Master Li must have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace.

Li Fuzi put down the teacup in his hand, shook his head and said, "With the source of the Mo family's children, the ink magazine will naturally get better and better, how can there be anything?" ”

"Then I don't know why the Master came here today?" Merton was surprised.

Li Fuzi glanced at Morton and said: "After reading the "Young Tang Said" you wrote in Guozijian, the old man was greatly moved, and it is indeed a rare article. ”

"The master has won the award, but it's just that the students have feelings for the young people in the world!" Merton said modestly.

Li Fuzi's expression changed, and he suddenly looked like he had unpaid ambitions, and said tragically: "However, if you want to be a teenager in the Tang Dynasty, you must first train my Datang teenager, if you want to be a teenager and a teenager is independent, you must set up education, but the old man has been calling for the implementation of compulsory education in the past six months, but unfortunately the entire court has not heard of it, and the book is like a stone sinking into the sea, and there is no news at all. ”

"Master, I want to take advantage of the popularity of "Young Tang Says" to promote compulsory education!" Merton immediately understood the meaning of Li Fuzi's intention.

Li Fuzi nodded and said: "Yes, now in Chang'an, the people are talking about compulsory education, and if you miss this opportunity, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult." ”

"I don't know how the master is going to prepare and how to carry it out?" Merton asked.

"Of course, it is to write to the imperial court, and the imperial court will set up the official school in the world and implement compulsory education!" Li Fuzi said excitedly.

"Who's going to teach these students?" Merton asked.

"Naturally, the master is hired!" Li Fuzi said cheerfully.

"I want to implement compulsory education, but there are thousands of students in the world, and how many truly qualified masters are willing to teach." Merton asked rhetorically.

Li Fuzi was silent for a moment, all those who read books want to gain fame, unless they are poor, there are very few people who are willing to teach.

Merton continued, "Even if there are enough masters, what is the content of the teachings?" ”

"Confucianism, of course...... Hundred schools of thought? Li Fuzi suddenly said embarrassed.

Merton shook his head and said: "Compulsory education is education for all, and it is not the elite of Confucianism or a hundred schools of thought that is cultivated, for an ordinary person, what they need is basic literacy to be able to read and understand words, and what they need is basic arithmetic, so that they can meet the basic needs of accounting, this is compulsory education, and then this is the end?" ”

Li Fuzi was stunned for a moment, and looked at Merton in confusion.

Merton reluctantly continued: "Compulsory education is only the most basic education, and the real cultivation of talents is to select the best on the basis of compulsory education, so as to cultivate real pillars." ”

"There is also the construction of the school house, and the master's income, which is an astronomical amount."

At this time, Li Fuzi realized that what he had considered before was too simple, and the implementation of compulsory education would probably be a huge project, and Mojia Village was able to implement compulsory education because Mojia Village was only a village, and had strong funds and strong support from Moton, while other places had so much financial and material resources.

"No matter how difficult it is, someone has to do it!" Li Fuzi said dryly.

Merton nodded and said, "That's true, someone does have to do it, but the first step here is to determine the textbooks for compulsory education, and Dr. Shen has compiled enough mathematics textbooks for students for six years from easy to difficult." Now we also need enough literacy books for students to learn for six years, and I don't know the master to be able to do this job. ”

Li Fuzi's eyes lit up suddenly, students are generally enlightened at the age of six, and the six-year compulsory education is only twelve years old, and then according to their respective interests, they choose a hundred schools of thought and drill fine, such a step-by-step plan, it is naturally much more convincing than the empty slogans he shouted before.

"This matter is on the old man." Li Fuzi said excitedly.

Merton shook his head and said: "The implementation of compulsory education is a huge project, and if you want to implement it, you must do without the support of Your Majesty. Therefore, this literacy book must please Your Majesty! ”

"To your Majesty's satisfaction?" Li Fuzi was stunned for a moment, isn't it just to teach people to read, and how can he satisfy His Majesty?

Merton analyzed: "First of all, these books are suitable for most students, and the literacy efficiency is higher than that of today's private schools. ”

Li Fuzi nodded thoughtfully, the current official and private school enlightenment students, usually hold a thousand-character text, let the students memorize by rote, inefficient not to say, and directly too difficult, a six-year-old student does not understand anything, has to recite the heaven and earth Xuanhuang, the universe is desolate, only know its words, do not know its meaning.

"In addition, this literacy book is also responsible for educating students to understand daily etiquette, know how to advance and retreat, educate students to stay away from danger, know how to know simple rescue and first aid knowledge, and at the same time run through the simple history of all dynasties, cultivate identification with China, and serve the court ,..................in the future."

Li Fuzi's eyes became brighter and brighter, he didn't expect that a literacy book would dabble in so much knowledge, which was simply to integrate the essence of a hundred schools.

You must know that the private school of the Tang Dynasty usually holds a book of four books and five classics to explain, if it is really possible to compile a book that covers so much knowledge, in comparison, its advantages will definitely impress the emperor.

When the time comes, this book will be promoted throughout the country, and as the compiler, he Li Duo will definitely be able to circulate the history.

Morton smiled and said, "This kid calls it "National Literature""
