One thousand one hundred and eighty-five Your Majesty the Emperor, what a saint is you!

The inheritance of the Five Classics is the selfish interest of some of the leading scholar families, and most scholars do not have the right to inherit and explain.

In the final analysis, the scholar group should also be divided into three, six, nine and so on.

The emperor and the head family compete for this power, as long as their interests can be protected, then who wins and who loses, for most second- and third-rate scholars, will not change much.

Therefore, they will also quickly choose the winner to take sides, in order to protect their own interests.

But if you start with the inspection system, and let the scholars and the children of the Han family and the children of Li Shu take the examination together to compete for official positions, it is digging their ancestral graves.

At that time, it will not be something that can be solved by dealing with a dozen families and calming down a wave of public opinion, it will really be a big thing.

However, the last thing Guo is afraid of is to do big things.

Guo has been persisting until now, that is, in order to do big things, he has come here, and he is almost trembling at the door, and it is impossible for Guo to give up.

It's just that it still takes a little time, a little time for the rules of Taixue to be established, and a little time for the school palaces and schools in the local states and counties to start to recover.

Therefore, Guo put his main energy on the education reform of Taixue, actively participated in it, and actively participated in the formulation of rules for any thing in Taixue.

Of course, there is no doubt that although the school is nominally under the management of Shangshutai, it has not reported any work to Cheng Yu and Tian Feng since the day it was founded.

The work of the school department directly bypassed Shangshutai and directly connected with the emperor, Yuan Si went to the emperor for anything, and then did it after getting the emperor's instructions, instead of following the instructions of Tian Feng and Cheng Yu.

Shangshutai has nine departments so far, and among these nine departments, there are three departments that openly do not obey the instructions of Cheng Yu and Tian Feng, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Rites, and the School Department.

In addition, Wang Cang, the secretary of the Ministry of Finance, was transferred from Guo Peng's first cabinet chief, and belonged to Guo Peng's confidants, and Guo Yi, the secretary of the Criminal Department, was a member of the Guo clan, and more than half of the power of Shangshutai was personally controlled by the emperor.

Only less than half of the remaining can Cheng Yu and Tian Feng be separated, these two people can be regarded as injured, and they have no strength to continue fighting, so Tian Feng grabbed the Ministry of Industry and did not let go, and Cheng Yu only faced the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Fortunately, at least not the bare-pole commander.

But Cheng Yu thought that the emperor would be a little kinder to him after the Northern Expedition, but this did not happen, the emperor was still the emperor, and he still did everything he believed without hesitation.

More than half of Shangshutai's power was taken away by the emperor in this way, and more importantly, it was still more than half of the most important, and less than half of it was left, which actually did not play a decisive role, such as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that played soy sauce all year round.

According to the current trend, Cheng Yu and Tian Feng are doubting that when they retire, there will be no need for Shang Shu Ling and Shang Shu to continue to exist.

Does the next Shangshu Ling monk still have real power in his hands?

At that time, will the departments of Shangshutai be directly responsible to the emperor, and the emperor will decide everything directly, and no one can challenge his authority and decision?

I don't know, Guo doesn't care anyway.

He has held more than a dozen meetings with the school department in a row, discussing and presiding over many details of Taixue.

He believes that only by determining the details can we ensure the smooth operation of Taixue.

Of course, this is good, the details are determined, and there is naturally no room for people to do their hands and feet.

During this time, Guo also used the power of his inner court to [work overtime to copy] a batch of Five Classics books.

On the 16th day of the seventh month of the sixth year of Yande, the first batch of 1,000 books, 200 copies of each of the Pentateuch, were put into Taixue education.

Taixue's new education was officially launched.

As Guo said before, he is not reluctant to give each person a book, but he has worked overtime to copy until now, and he has only completed 1,000 copies and 200 copies of the Five Classics.

It can be regarded as impartial, and the students who have completed each scripture in the elective class have been explained.

During this time, more than 18,000 students of Taixue finally sorted out various problems and completed various procedures.

When the turmoil had not completely dissipated, these scholars inexplicably began to carry out study tasks in Taixue.

They were told that they needed to complete three years of study before they could graduate from Taixue and participate in the official selection exam.

In this regard, many scholars have learned the inside story, knowing that this statement is actually aimed at those poor students and mud legs, and the children of scholars can still take the road of filial piety and honesty.

As long as the Ministry of Rites announces the start of filial piety, then the selection of filial piety will begin, and these scholars can also participate, and they do not have to stick to the three-year period.

Anyway, they entered Taixue just to get a student status.

Of course, it might be interesting to listen to these new courses along with them.

The 1,000 books distributed within Taixue were not so necessary for scholars who had money and well-connected families, and they had already used the power of money to obtain the complete punctuation of the Pentateuch.

As long as enough money is given, a large number of people are willing to sell their labor to help them copy books.

Anyway, now that paper is cheap, the work of copying books is much simpler, and since this time, there have been many small traders in Luoyang City who help scholars copy books in exchange for money-

It is not known where they recruited literate people to help them copy books.

But it seems that they are only intermediaries, through which the scholars find people who are willing to help copy the books, and then give money.

As for how the money will be divided and how this emerging industry will operate, no one knows, and there is no need to know.

For these people, there is one more way to make money.

For the scholars, it was a deeper awareness of the meaning of punctuation.

It has to be said that this initiative of the emperor is a genius initiative.

Everyone knows the meaning of this kind of thing, but if you want to say that you like it, then few people really like it, because it's really not easy to learn.

Especially for young students, it is really difficult to study at first, or how hard to study.

But with the addition of punctuation, the reading began to become easier.

If you divide the sentences and paragraphs into them, you won't be unaware of the specific meaning of punctuation, but you will know where to break the sentence, how to read it, and how to understand it.

With punctuation, everything suddenly becomes clear, and you can see at a glance how to read this article.

You don't have to spend a lot of time learning to read sentences, you don't have to worry about not being able to memorize the content of a famous teacher's explanation in time, and you don't have to ask people for answers for an obscure explanation.

For a large number of students who work very hard to study, this kind of thing is definitely a good thing.

This means that they can study all five scriptures in a fixed place—if you have enough talent and hard work, you can learn all five.

They no longer have to travel all over the world, risking countless dangers just to find a famous person who can teach a certain scripture and ask for learning.

In other words, the cost of learning is greatly reduced.

The second- and third-rate scholars became happier and happier, and their hearts were full of gratitude to His Majesty the Emperor.

At the beginning, the direction of Taixue's speech was not friendly to the emperor, the emperor tossed them again and again, and they were worried and frightened three times a night, who could be happy?

But when a large number of scholars found that the cost of their learning was greatly reduced and the learning efficiency was greatly improved, and when they found that punctuation was really beneficial to them, their dissatisfaction with the emperor immediately changed 180 degrees.

His Majesty the Emperor, what a saint!
