13. Pony Wade Creek Text
As for what Gao Yue then said to the two assassins, to promote tea planting in Lizhou and expand the scale of tuntian in the Yuehe Valley in Yangzhou, the two naturally agreed, and said to Gao Yue that the king of Hechuan County was willing to support a group of tea farmers in Shu to come to Lizhou.
In this way, Shu and Xingyuan Mansion negotiated, and sure enough, a few days later, the envoy of the imperial court arrived, informing Gao Yue to enter Beijing immediately to discuss the matter of building a city in Pingliang, and the Baicao Army needed to defend against autumn soldiers.
"This means, most likely, that I Tang is going to end the short peace with Xifan." Gao Yue groaned.
Civil wars were about to be replaced by border wars.
In the afterglow of autumn, Yun Shao, Yun and the two sisters were sitting under the flower stand in the atrium of the official house, teaching Jing'er to read and read.
After Gao Yue walked in, when he saw this, he asked what book he was reading.
The reply I got was some simple rhyme books and enlightenment books, "Qingqing, the state school in Xingyuan Mansion is too withered, and if you are a few years older, you need to learn privately." "Yun Shao means that no matter how tall it is, my sisters and sisters are afraid that they can't afford it, and it's best to find a gentleman who is proficient in classical Confucianism to educate him privately, so that he can really improve.
"In the courtyard of my Shengpingfang family, they are all military generals, and I am afraid that I will entrust my teaching to others in the future." Yun and his hands were on his feet, a little deflated.
But Gao Yue has a different opinion, "Sometimes you can't just think about your own children, Ah Ni said that the state and county learning is withering, I also feel deeply, the ancients Yuncang is honest and knows etiquette, I have been in charge of Xingyuan Mansion for two years, and it is to revitalize the public and private schools at the state and county level." ”
In fact, in the Tang Dynasty, the state and county schools and the national schools fell into a big crisis, and the cause of this crisis was not other reasons, but the rise of the imperial examination system.
In the early years of the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Taizong not only added schools at all levels, but also issued edicts many times to give the children of nobles and commoners different ways to study and enter the office.
But in the post-martial era, because she preferred literature to take scholars, so the evaluation criteria of the imperial examination changed from the original "classics" to "literature", that is, the emphasis on poetry and songs, this influence has been extended to the middle and late Tang Dynasty, Gao Yue was in the Southern Academy of the Ministry of Rites when he took the exam, and the questions he wrote also severely criticized the policies of the Wuhou. As for the Ming classics, the examination standards have also shifted to simple recitation, and it is not necessary for the test takers to really understand the essence of the scriptures, so that the "public school" based on the scriptures has rapidly declined because of the serious disconnection between the teaching content and the actual needs, and the "private learning" focusing on poetry and song has flourished, which should be a reasonable thing. Therefore, during the Xuanzong period, it had to be forcibly stipulated that as a juzi, he must have a "graduation certificate" from a local state or county school, and then enter the Central Guozi School, Taixue or Simen School, and carry out appropriate further study (entering the Guangwen Museum), and then obtain the qualification to take the Jinshi examination, so as to ensure the enrollment rate of the school. In the future, Gao Jing will follow the normal trajectory, and seven or eight times out of ten will also rely on Gao Yue's door shade to enter the national prison (of course, if Gao Yue can enter the third grade, he will be able to enter the second hall of Hongwen Chongwen) to study, and then step into the official career in various ways.
However, the forced provisions of the Tang government's policy will be the end of "using the mantis arm as a car" before the development of the times.
In fact, in the Xuanzong era, the concept of "learning is useless" in school teaching has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, such as Tian Wan in the Kaiyuan period, who was the same as Gao Yue when he was young, he also entered Taixue, but after studying for a while, he felt that "Xiaoya" was chirping crookedly like a resentful woman all day long, and "Daya" taught people how to be complicated and "extravagant" all day long, so he felt that this thing was to learn to do? I am a man of the Tang Dynasty, "meritorious deeds should precede Jili, chapters and sentences are not in a hurry to be timely", simply went to learn horseback archery, Sun Wu art of war, and then threw his pen from Rong, meritorious service, and finally became the protector of Anbei, and later served as the Yizhou Assassin History, Gaoyang Military Envoy, and the official career until the Hedong Jiedu Envoy.
In Gao Yue's era, whether it is Guozijian or the state and county schools, it is simply in name only, so Gao Yue was in Taixue before, and the state asked Jingzhao Mansion to release the children in order to keep Guozijian, and the students of Guozijian must account for a certain proportion.
"Alas, once the hearts of the people are gone, even if they are detained by law, it will be useless!" Gao Yue knows very well that whether the central and local governments want to revitalize education, of course, it is not enough to reliably issue some policies to tinker, but it is necessary to adapt to the needs of the times and carry out strong innovations.
"Immediately in the Xingyuan Mansion Fuxing School, but the school hall also needs various expenses such as kitchen materials, wood salary, and Yulu, and I am ready to take one-third of the rice from the vocational field, plus five hundred yuan from the public and private Yulu, as the funds of the school." Gao Yue spoke his mind.
When Yunhe heard this, he immediately had a question in his heart, "I won't ...... it."
"That's right, if Jing'er wants to go to school, if Jing'er is the first to enroll, it will be a role model, and the children of officials at all levels of Xingyuan Mansion will also be enrolled, and then the entire state capital will go to various counties to study."
Gao Yue's idea was supported by Yun Shao.
But Yun He still had doubts, "The country has opened a branch of Yanshi, but there are only twenty or thirty Jinshi and the first every year." ”
It means that it is useless for the school to recruit so many students!
Gao Yue didn't think so, he said that every year Jinshi, that is the elite of the country's elite, is a reserve army at the level of the minister, but if the country wants to operate benignly, where does it need so many ministers? In many counties, the state still complains that it can't find anyone to be a commander, a captain, or a lieutenant, and can only let people or officials fill the position. Now the country urgently needs not poets, but a large number of professionals who go to the frontier and various states and counties in the interior to shepherd the people and run the army for the imperial court.
The sisters felt that what he said had some truth, but if they went deeper, they couldn't think clearly for the time being.
Gao Yue then sat on the stone pier under the flower stand, touched Jing'er's head, and then took out a few articles from his arms, saying that Jing'er will read it to you, and when your father returns from Beijing, you can talk to your father about what you think.
"What is this?" Yun Shao asked curiously.
"It's a text written by Master Mingxuan and me."
The so-called text change is the "edutainment" article that Buddhists use to preach to the common people, which is easy to understand and combines rap, which is especially close to the story meeting of later generations.
"Little, the little foal crosses the stream and changes the text?" I actually read one of them and read it out loud......
Gao Yue went to Beijing, two days before leaving, a sailboat was parked by the Hanchuan River, and then it was Sima Luqi of Fengzhou who went ashore.
In the Tianhan Station, Gao Yue personally received the former ruler.
It turned out that the emperor still issued an edict, although he did not let Lu Qi return to the dynasty, he could be transferred to Jizhou (now Ji'an, Jiangxi) for the long history.
Although it is also an idle position, Lu Qi is still very confident, and he said to Gao Yue during the banquet: "In less than three years, Qi will re-enter the political hall, and I will not forget the kindness of Yisong and Chengwu to me." ”
