Chapter 537: Promoting Mandarin starts with dolls
"Within Liuhe, the land of the emperor, wading quicksand in the west, and ...... in the south and north"
Qin Shi Huang was an idle man, and on the first day of his arrival in Jimo City, before he could rest, he walked into the public school of Jimo City under the guidance of Heifu and surrounded by ministers.
Before he got closer, he heard a catchy reading sound, the voice was immature but loud, although it sounded mixed with a thick Jiaodong accent, but it had already made Qin Shi Huang's eyes shine.
"After coming to Jiaodong, I have heard that the people are full of Qi Dongye language, but I have rarely heard of Yayan!"
The Emperor stopped the Heifu, who was going to let the students come out to meet His Majesty, and walked to the door of the school with his ministers.
This is a new classroom this year, the window is bright and clean, there are more than ten long desks inside, there are two pomp mats in front of each case, but I saw a group of children ranging from eight to ten years old in pairs, kneeling in front of the desk, hands obediently on their knees, holding their chests, and the master who taught them, that is, the county priest Xiao He read "Qin Song" aloud......
The same words and phrases came out of the mouths of this group of Jiaodong children, but they had a different taste, when they read "Gong Gai Five Emperors, Ze and Niu Ma." Don't be virtuous, each is safe", I feel that my eyes are shining. Just like when the Young Pioneers of later generations recited aloud "Struggle for the construction of the great motherland", the innocent and simple children, what do the students believe, this is the power of education.
After finishing the recitation, Xiao He, who was teaching, also found His Majesty the Emperor wearing a crown standing behind the door, and hurriedly pretended to bow down in a panic, and led the children to salute Qin Shi Huang with all hands and feet, and shouted the last sentence.
"The world is eternal, long live the thousand autumns!"
The older ones knew that it was the emperor who came, and they were honestly afraid, while the younger ones were ignorant and probed their brains.
"Good! Great goodness! ”
Qin Shi Huang was very happy, he was not kind enough to shake hands with this group of children whose faces were red from freezing in the harsh winter, and asked their ages, but just looked at Heifu: "This group of children are all the children of rich families in Jiaodongshi?" ”
Heifu said: "However, in Jiaodong, those who have more than 100,000 yuan of income, their children do not have to help with production at home, they must pay a certain amount of bonds, enter public school for three years, and learn Qin Yan and Qin characters. ”
Although the Qin Dynasty paid taxes according to the head and household registration, the industrial and commercial people also had to calculate their family wealth, and then cut the leeks from time to time...... No, it is a reasonable and legal property tax.
As a result, the production of 100,000 yuan has become the standard of high income, in Guanzhong, the military nobles have a production of 100,000 yuan, and their children are good families, and they can bring their own war horses and weapons to enlist in the army as military officials. Heifu also copied this system to Jiaodong, but changed it to let the children of rich families learn literature, integrate them into the new education system, and force them to enter "primary schools", and pay a certain amount of tuition by the way.
"Even if there is tuition, but the public school is still unable to make ends meet, the primary school disciples bring their own pen and ink, but the paper and textbooks are supplied by the government, Your Majesty, please see, this is the textbook printed by Jiaodong Sacrifice Wine......"
The two earliest places where printing was applied were government decrees and announcements, and secondly, in the classroom.
Xiao He respectfully came over and presented a student's textbook, Qin Shi Huang took it, and the beginning was the "Ode to Qin" that he asked the musicians to compose a few years ago, that is, the paragraph that the children read aloud, which is a praise of the emperor's merits and political correctness.
Next, it is Prime Minister Li Si's "Cangjie Chapter", Li Si's literary level is excellent, the Cangjie chapter is catchy, and it is also the best literacy textbook.
Next, there is an excerpt from Taishi Ling Hu Wujing's "Erudite Chapter", which involves some common sense, but Qin Shi Huang turned this page and did not see Zhao Gao's "Calendar Chapter" of the CRRC Prefecture......
Instead, it was the "Song of the Twenty-Four Solar Terms" made by Heifu let the farmer compose!
"Hahaha."
Qin Shi Huang was stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing.
Hefu smiled as well, but didn't explain anything.
In short, the primary school mainly learns to speak Guanzhong Yayan and write Qin Li, and it is necessary to practice every day, and the "middle school" is more advanced, learning the law, and the purpose is to cultivate Qin officials from Jiaodong indigenous background and assist the government in governing the place.
Middle school does not have to have a family fortune of 100,000 yuan to go to school, even if it is a poor person who has taught himself Qin characters and Qin Yan, as long as he passes the exam, he can also be enrolled, and if his grades are excellent, he can get the first place in the county, and there are also a lot of scholarships.
After some inspection, Qin Shi Huang was very satisfied with Jimo's public school, and said: "I came to the east this time, and the counties along the way, the law is taught in Jiaodong as the most, and the book is the same as the text, so it should start from the children!" ”
Before the group left, Heifu beckoned Xiao He to sacrifice wine and arranged for him to be given a task.
"Xiao Xijiu, after you go down, write an article."
When Xiao He was in Pei County, he was known for his "harmless writing", and his pen was very powerful, so after arriving in Jiaodong, in addition to managing the Education Bureau, he also became the royal literati of Heifu County......
"Don't know how to write it?" Xiao He was respectful.
Heifu said: "From the perspective of a primary school disciple, to remember the unforgettable meeting with His Majesty today, the text needs to be concise and easy to understand, and it can be added to the textbook in the future." ”
Next, Heifu roughly described the main content of the article: an ordinary Jiaodong elementary school student, who heard that the master was about to meet His Majesty the Emperor, was nervous and excited.
After meeting the emperor, he was majestic, and when he saw his disciples reciting "Song of Qin", he changed to a kind smile, and the elementary school students saluted His Majesty, and the emperor helped the students.
Next, the emperor's grandfather saw the students writing Qin characters one by one, with a satisfied smile on his face, and praised him again and again, and finally, he also kindly asked the age of the primary school students, and said to the Heifu county guard around him: "Books are the same as words, and they should be ...... from the beginning."
"Do you understand?" Heifu also accompanied Qin Shi Huang to the palace and hurriedly assigned a task to Xiao He.
"The subordinates know."
Xiao He promised, secretly said the whole process, and the last sentence was true, but since the boss said it, he had to do it, and when he went back, he began to bite the pen, imagining that he was a primary school student who braved the cold to come to the school early in the morning, and this unforgettable day......
……
After inspecting the public school, seeing that the sun was approaching, Qin Shi Huang was a little tired, and when he arrived at the palace converted into a palace in Jimo Palace, he asked Yongren to prepare a meal.
Qin Shi Huang also made a request: "Recently, the diet is too much fish and meat, and I don't like it, so I can cook soup with local vegetables and vegetables." ”
The emperor's stomach has always had a small problem, and it has been aggravated since the trip, and the chicken, duck and fish meat have been difficult to swallow recently.
This can be sad Yongren, although the emperor knows the grain, but he does not know the season of vegetables, in Xianyang, the court pays attention to "the moon of mid-autumn, the life of the people of Si Fun convergence, the storage of vegetables", that is, the autumn vegetables and winter storage, hidden in the cellar, the emperor has to have, but this is a patrol ah...... In the cold winter, where can I find fresh vegetables?
But there is no way, since the emperor said it, Yongren can only think of a way with a bitter face.
Not to mention that the Yong people rummaged through the cabinets in Jimo City to find fresh vegetables, on the other side, Qin Shi Huang continued to discuss with his ministers what he had seen.
In the emperor's view, compared with those who read the words of Confucius, yearned for the rule of the three generations and the Zhou Dynasty, and cultivated the Confucian students from the past and the present at every turn, and were full of reverence for the Great Qin, they were the "good scholars" that Qin Shi Huang wanted.
"Jiaodong's Dharma teaching policy can be imitated by all counties in the world!"
Qin Shi Huang decided to set up a "county sacrificial wine" in each county to imitate Jiaodong and promote the Jiaodong model. He wants to grasp the beard and eyebrows together: confiscating the collection of books, curbing private learning, and promoting public schools will become a three-step policy that is interlocking, and the ultimate goal is the unification of public opinion and people's hearts!
This is something that Qin Shi Huang will never forget, on the top of Mount Tai, he is betting against the sky!
The emperor also thought that after a year and a half, after the prime minister and Taishi compiled the "History of the State", the public school disciples could understand that the current dynasty has far surpassed the ignorant and barbaric three generations of Yin Zhou, and is the most advanced since ancient times, and the public school education of the imperial court will be even more perfect......
At this time, the Yongren kitchen also finally prepared the meal and served it, Dading stewed hot meat as usual, in addition to the common eight treasures of the palace banquet, and after coming to Jiaodong, almost every meal can see the sea fish, in response to Qin Shi Huang's "want to eat vegetarian" request, there is also an extra soup that Qin Shi Huang has never seen in the past......
In these years, the container for soup is a pot, and the so-called "pot pulp" is also.
Brought to the case of Qin Shi Huang, after the lid of the copper kettle was opened, the heat was rising, and the emperor took a look, but saw that the inside was blue and white:
The milky white soft lump lies in the soup, and it looks so cute that you can't help but want to try a piece of it. There are also some turquoise leaves, boiled very soft, plus the soup boiled with meat and bones, a little thick, fragrant, served in front of you in this cold winter, people have a great appetite......
Although I really want to try it, Qin Shi Huang is very suspicious and cautious about dining, and every time someone will taste it first and then try it with a silver needle, and this time is no exception.
He pointed to the soup and said, "What is this?" ”
Yongren hurriedly bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, this is a native product of Jiaodong, and the ministers dare to cook the soup after they have been burned and tasted." ”
After that, he raised his head and said helplessly: "This is the only fresh vegetable that can be found at this time......
Qin Shi Huang frowned and was skeptical.
Heifu came forward at this time and said: "Your Majesty, the two things in this soup are indeed local products of Jiaodong. ”
He pointed to the pot of soup in front of him and said: "This white one is the 'tofu' recently invented by the farmer, and this green one is the best woad vegetables selected and bred by the farmer's vegetable garden outside the city, which is more resistant to cold winter and has a more beautiful taste than sunflower vegetables." As early as autumn, this soup has become popular in Jimo, and the locals have given it a nice name, do you want to hear it? ”
"Oh, what's the name?"
After the attendant tried the poison and proved that it was safe, Qin Shi Huang's suspicions gradually disappeared, and he already wanted to try it with a dagger.
Heifu smiled, and let the emperor eat this thing, which was also a bad taste after hearing a story in his previous life, so he said:
"It's called 'Jade White Jade Soup'!"
