Chapter 87: Lecture on Martial Arts - Mr. Geography Lesson
If Chen Xingshan saw the textbook compiled by Yun Xi, he would have to jump. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Although Confucianism pays attention to monarchs, ministers, fathers and sons, but they are all morally preached, how can there ever be such a naked use of real history to tell them, you hereditary generals and the interests of the Ming Dynasty are tied together?
Lian Zining couldn't accept Yun Xi's statement that was not in line with Confucianism at first, but Yun Xi would say it differently, and he said to Lian Zining: "The people who are taught this time are all military generals. They are all rough people, and many people don't even know a few words, how can they be compared with scholars? If Lone tells them about kings and ministers, they accept it on the surface, but how can they understand it in their hearts? It is only useful to tell them the simplest and most straightforward truth. ā
Fortunately, Lian Zining is not a pedantic person, he is also quite smart, and he also accepts Yun Xi's unclear explanation. With Lian Zining's help in writing and giving advice, the progress of compiling the textbook was extremely fast, and there was no problem in completing it in December.
When compiling the history textbook, Yun Xi was still urging other gentlemen who were going to give lectures in the lecture hall to complete their own lesson plans. No, on the ninth day of the twelfth month, Yun Xi went out of the palace to the military department and the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to urge them.
On this day, Yunxi got up in the morning, first analyzed the meaning of the several copies approved by Lao Zhu yesterday with Lian Zining, Qi Tai and others, and then took Lian Zining and Qi Tai out of the palace and went to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.
Now most of the generals with great achievements in the Ming Dynasty are stationed in various places to guard or prepare for the border, only Jingchuan Hou Cao Zhen was transferred back from Bashu and is now in the capital. Yun Xi understood that this was Lao Zhu, because Cao Zhen had been in Bashu for more than ten years and was not at ease with him, so he was recalled.
Yun Xi arrived at the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and when Menzi finished saluting, he asked, "Are Zhang Lun, Chu Zhi, Ma Xuan, and Chen Zhen all there?" ā
Menzi replied: "If you return to Your Highness, the four adults are here. Zhang and Chu are in the Right Army Governor's Mansion, and Ma Zhenfu and Chen Zhenfu are in the Houjun Governor's Mansion. ā
Hearing this, Yun Xi raised his legs and walked towards the Right Army Governor's Mansion, and asked Qi Tai to go to the Houjun Governor's Mansion to call Ma Xuan and Chen Zhen over.
These four people are all gentlemen from the first year of geography class selected by Lao Zhu. Because now that the interior of the Ming Dynasty has been pacified and there is no war, the geography class focuses on the geography of the border areas or other ethnic gathering places such as Nuer Gandusi, Mongolian steppe, Ganlong Suiyuan, and Bashu Yunyun.
Zhang Lunjiu was a general in Liaodong, Chu Zhi counted out Mongolia, Ma Xuan once fought in Sichuan and Yunnan from Muying, Chen Zhen Shaanxi Selenium people, and several times turned to Shaanxi and Gansu, all of whom are very familiar with the places where there are more wars now. And although they are familiar with geography, their officials are not high, so they will not let another subject be monopolized by generals.
Zhang Lun and Chu Zhigang were transferred back to the capital, and their current experience position is also an idle position, and they will return to Beijing because they will serve as the gentleman of the martial arts hall next year, so they will look at the information in the governor's mansion of the right army, and then learn to write, and when they saw Yun Xi walking in, they immediately got up and saluted.
Yun Xi also knew that they didn't have anything to do, so he didn't hypocritically ask 'are they busy' or anything, and after a few greetings, he said: "Zhang and Chu's two experiences, can this 'lesson plan' be written?" There are still more than two months before the martial arts hall starts, and the students in Bashu, Yunyun and other places have already set off, so you can't be too late. ā
As soon as Yun Xi talked about this, Zhang Lun and Chu Zhi had big heads. How have they ever been gentlemen before? The textbooks can be used as a way to get the geographical maps of various places from the Ministry of War and the Governor's Office, and then sort them out, but the lesson plans are not written at all.
They used to talk to their friends about the strange things and strange mountains and places in various places, and they never counted how long it took, and now they are so forced to teach what they want to teach, and they can't remember the special features of many places, so they don't know how to set the time.
As soon as Yunxi looked at their expressions, he knew that they hadn't written yet. Yun Xi couldn't help but be anxious, because he had to wait until their lesson plans came out to arrange the class, so he was in a hurry. However, he also knew that it was difficult for them to write lesson plans, so he tried his best to say in a gentle tone: "Zhang Experience, Chu Experience, didn't Lone show you the lesson plan written by Lone, just copy it according to Lone's writing." ā
Zhang Lun and Chu Zhi glanced at each other, and Zhang Lun said: "Your Highness, although His Highness has shown the 'lesson plan' to the ministers, and the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies has allocated the capital matter of literacy and hyphenation to assist us, although the ministers can barely write the 'lesson plan', they dare not divide how many 'class hours'!" It is difficult to remember the terrain of many marches without recalling the situation at that time, and it is really impossible to determine how much time it will take. ā
Halfway through Zhang Lun's words, Ma Xuan and Chen Zhen came, and Yun Xi beckoned them not to disturb Zhang Lun to speak. Although the two only heard half of Zhang Lun's words, they also heard what Zhang Lun meant. After Zhang Lun finished speaking, they also said: "Your Highness, the ministers, like Zhang Lun, can't determine how much time it will take. ā
Yun Xi couldn't help but want to scold them: What's so difficult about this! But just before his words could be spoken, Qi Tai said loudly: "Your Highness, my lords, I have also been talking for a while, first take a sip of tea and wait for a while before continuing." ā
Yun Xi glanced at Qi Tai with a little dissatisfaction, but still sat down and let the servants serve tea. Zhang Lun and others also sat down to drink tea to moisten their throats.
Qi Tai leaned over to Yun Xi and whispered, "Your Highness, are you too harsh on them. It is unprecedented to compile a lesson plan and determine in advance that it will take time for a professor, not to mention these generals, even the old masters in the countryside, who may not be able to do it according to His Highness's requirements. ā
"And this time in the capital to open the Ming Lecture Martial Arts Hall, His Royal Highness can arrange the course first, wait until the last two or three months of the year to adjust the class with more 'class hours' and the less 'class time', there is no need to let them determine the number of 'class hours' now."
Yun Hee listened to Qi Tai's words and realized that he had gone too far. The four people in front of him were not ordinary people who had at least gone to high school in the 21st century in the Western calendar, but some semi-literate or illiterate people who had basically never read a book and knew at most one or two hundred words, and they could not fulfill his requirements without precedent.
Yun Xi is one, at least for now, a person who can change his mistakes. He said to Qi Tai, "You're right, Lone is too impatient. ā
Qi Tai said: "Your Highness is also to be able to run the martial arts hall well. ā
When this round of rest was over, Yun Xi said to Zhang Lun and them: "Gu just discussed it with Qi Tai again, and I think it is too difficult for you to be strong. In this way, you only need to write out the 'lesson plan' first, you don't have to divide the required number of class hours, and arrange the class first, and when the end of the year, if someone has enough class time, you can divide some class time from others. ā
The newcomer Ma Xuan said excitedly: "Your Highness Shengming! It is precisely because of this that the ministers are worried, and it is really good that His Highness has done this. The other three chimed in.
Yun Xi secretly reflected on the mistakes he had made in this matter, and he didn't want to continue with them, so he said, "Those ministers, can you agree on a time to ensure that the lesson plan is completed before this time?" ā
Zhang Lun said: "Today is the ninth day of December, and the minister promises that it will be completed before December 25. When the others heard Zhang Lun say this, they all set it for the 25th.
Yun Xi chatted casually for a few more words and left, and Zhang Lun and the others hurriedly sent out of the Governor's Mansion.
