Chapter 730: The Prince, Full of Fighting Spirit
Chai Rong's shot can be called a thunderbolt.
From Guo Wuwei onwards, dozens of officials were all arrested, including the first assistant Wang Pu, who was angrily reprimanded by the emperor several times, asking him to rectify the rule of officials, especially important, to return the pre-levied taxes to the Hedong farm, and to abolish the "and buy", the imperial court must settle the purchase of materials at market prices.
No matter who is involved in exploiting and bribery, they will be strictly investigated to the end and will not be tolerated.
In addition, Chai Rong also gently let go of the incident of Yuma being fed poison and did not continue to investigate. What is even more surprising is that Zhang Yongde was named a loyal uncle, which is equivalent to Zhao Kuangyin's status, obviously, this is for compensation after taking it to the capital.
And Chai Rong was still in the early court, and smashed the stone tablet engraved with "Check to be the Son of Heaven" into pieces.
In the face of the ministers, Chai Rong made a heartfelt statement that could be called a golden jade theory.
"I inherited the foundation of the first emperor, carried a three-foot sword, swept the north and south, and ruled the world. An Wanmin, Zheng Yi Di, what he does, obey the heavens and people, there are gods, and he should bless the Great Zhou Dynasty and thousands of generations. The theory of the diagram is not enough to represent the destiny of heaven, and those who have a heart can use demonic words to deceive people's hearts and frame the loyal and good, and their hearts can be punished! From now on, anyone who has a monster such as a book of heaven, a river map, a stone tablet, and a wooden board will be killed! ”
His Majesty the Emperor was full of emotion, and his loud remarks finally set the tone for the chaotic court situation.
Wenchen didn't dare to move, and the generals also calmed down.
It seems to have returned to a harmonious atmosphere.
But Zhao Pu clearly knows that there are some things that he is afraid that he will never go back.
Champion Hou offered advice to His Majesty, but Chai Rong did not adopt it.
This is the first time in many years!
No matter how many measures Chai Rong has taken to make up for it, it can't change the fact that His Majesty the Emperor is no longer obedient, and two strong people will still clash after all.
Only when they are in conflict can there be a way for others to live.
Zhao Pu kept thinking in his heart, the only thing that Chai Rong hadn't changed was to continue to fight...... Do you want to write now to support His Majesty's use of troops against the Khitan?
There is no doubt that at this time, he will definitely be able to get the favor of the Son of Heaven, but he will inevitably offend the champion Hou, Ye Hua's current strength can still easily crush any minister, even if it is a heavenly official, it is just a big ant!
Be steady, be steady!
Zhao Pu knew that if he wanted to profit between two fierce tigers, he had to have excellent patience, otherwise he would be in danger of becoming tiger poop...... Another three days passed, and suddenly, news came from the palace that Chai Rong went to Ye Mansion to congratulate Lao Fengjun on his birthday!
Mrs. Ye is eighty-five years old and can be called a human being.
His Majesty the Emperor personally came to the door with gifts to congratulate him on his birthday.
"It's unexpected! The Son of Heaven actually bowed his head first! Zhao Pu shouted luck, fortunately he was not in a hurry to read, otherwise it would be unimaginable, he secretly wiped his cold sweat and was more careful......
In the Yefu Flower Hall, Chai Rong tasted the dark red wine, with a smile on his face.
"The grape wine of the Western Regions, coupled with the luminous glass, the wine is beautiful, I haven't drunk so comfortably for a long time." Chai Rong said with a smile: "What's more, there are fewer than a thousand cups of wine for a confidant, Ye Hua ...... Do you know why I don't want to start a cooperative according to your plan? ”
"This ...... The minister is stupid. Ye Hua lowered his head and said respectfully.
Chai Rong snorted, "You still pretend to be confused, I might as well make it clear, I can't take care of it, and suddenly there are so many officials, don't look at it as just a small village, if you are sincere and evil, it is enough to destroy the people's families...... Without adequate preparation, I will not carry it out. ”
"What about the pilot?"
Ye Hua suddenly asked, "Your Majesty, it seems that the minister's proposal to form a cooperative is also in a hurry. However, if it is in the Central Plains and other places, it is feasible to pilot it first, and then promote it after success? ”
Ye Hua paused, and added: "Your Majesty, not only is it a foreign war, the current population of Kaifeng has exceeded two million. With so many people gathered in the city, there will be problems if there is no adequate food supply. If a cooperative is formed, the imperial court can sign a supply and marketing agreement with the cooperative. In a good year, we can keep food prices from plummeting, and food prices will not skyrocket in disaster years. In short, the scattered small-scale peasant economy is really unable to undertake huge tasks, whether it is foreign warfare or the development of industry and commerce! ”
Chai Rong groaned slightly, and said with a dumb smile: "Ye Qing's words for the country, how can I oppose it!" Where are you going to pilot it, and who are you going to let push it! ”
"Father!"
The crown prince Guo Zongxun suddenly appeared in the flower hall, he bowed down and said: "If my father agrees, my son is willing to do this!" ”
Chai Rong frowned, and glanced at the prince, who was still a little immature.
"This is a big matter related to the society of the country, how can you do it as a child?"
Guo Zongxun raised his head and puffed out his chest, "Father, Erchen is not a child anymore, and Erchen has his own ideas!" ”
"Oh?" Chai Rong said: "Tell me, let my father see, what are your skills?" ”
"Father, the son has been studying in the school, following Mr. Qi to increase his knowledge, Mr. Qi encouraged the son to be insightful of the world, indulge in the knowledge of books, and do not know the benefits of the people's livelihood at all, he is a nerd."
Guo Zongxun is really different from before, the little guy talks eloquently.
"Not long ago, the imperial court wanted to spend a huge amount of money to build schools and train more talents. Erchen thinks that although the idea is good, it may not be satisfactory. ”
When the prince suddenly mentioned Xingxue, Chai Rong was really a little interested, and he bowed his head and said, "Tell me, what are the defects?" ”
"Father, if you want to build a school, it is not enough for the court to pay for it, but also for the people to be willing to send their children to the school. For example, in a village, half of the 100 households are willing to let their children go to school, and the remaining half, for various reasons, are unwilling to let their children go to school, maybe in this village, they will not be able to run a school. ”
Guo Zongxun is really not nonsense, even if Qi Tongwen has such a big reputation, the treatment of the school is not bad, but there are some stubborn parents, they arbitrarily believe that children are not reading materials, teenage children, instead of wasting pen, ink, paper and inkstone, go to the school to study, it is better to herd cattle at home, cut pigweed, take care of younger brothers and sisters, and share worries for parents.
What hope is there for a country baby?
Work for a few years, save some money, marry a daughter-in-law, and then inherit the father's business and continue farming.
For thousands of years, our ancestors have been like this for generations, some people want to change their courts, but some people don't want to!
If you can keep plowing the fields and farming, and you have a stutter, you are very satisfied...... Of course, with the development of the times, there will be fewer and fewer such people, but it is undeniable that even in later generations, they still exist, let alone today's Great Zhou!
"Father, if a cooperative is established, you can use the collective balance to build a school, or let three or five cooperatives run a school together...... In this way, we can really let children go to school, otherwise even if the court pays more financial and material resources, it is just duckweed, and it can't take root in the people! ”
Guo Zongxun's discussion made Chai Rong quite surprised, and he couldn't help but look at Ye Hua, "Didn't you give it to him?" ”
Ye Hua waved his hand again and again, "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't have it, this is what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thinks of himself!" ”
Guo Zongxun hurriedly said: "Master forgot, I once asked my disciple to go to the vegetable market, and my disciple felt that he benefited a lot. Over the past few years, the school has also continued to arrange activities. Last year, the disciple also went to the countryside to work as a teacher for half a month, giving lectures to children in mountain villages. At that time, the disciples found that many parents thought that attending classes was a waste of time, and even if their children wanted to study, they sternly refused...... And no matter what the disciples said, they just wouldn't agree. ”
"So His Highness thought of using the cooperative model to promote education?" Ye Hua asked happily.
Guo Zongxun nodded, "The disciple feels that the countryside really needs to be completely changed, otherwise it will become a drag." ”
Chai Rong didn't nod immediately, just waved his hand and asked the prince to retreat.
Then he said to Ye Hua: "What do you think of the prince's knowledge?" ”
Ye Hua said with a smile: "As the division commander, the minister thinks that the prince can become a teacher!" ”
Chai Rong snorted, "It's just him, it's far away!" ”
"I don't think so." Ye Hua insisted: "The so-called gentleman leads the door, and the cultivation is in the individual. As a teacher, what you need to teach your students is how to learn. Books are there, anyone can read them, and only by mastering the methods can I truly master the knowledge and use it for my use. Otherwise, just knowing how to endorse books, people will not become books that can breathe! ”
There is no parent who doesn't like teachers to praise their children, even Chai Rong is fluttering.
"Ye Qing, since this is the case, I will set aside a state of land and an experimental cooperative. Let the prince take care of it, and you will check it for him...... As for the manpower you need, look for it from the school! ”
With Chai Rong's words, Guo Zongxun's eyes lit up excitedly, a few years ago, the uncle went to Khotan to comfort the Han people in the Western Regions, he could only study in the school, and now he finally has a chance to show his skills!
Although it is only a state, it is also a rare opportunity, no matter what, you have to do a good job and impress your father!
"Your Highness, these are three prefectures and counties with better conditions, Songzhou, Daimyo's Mansion, and Lanzhou, if Your Highness is not satisfied, Suzhou, Hangzhou can also go, and you can go to play by the way!" Zhao Er said with a smile.
Guo Zongxun shook his head like a rattle, "I'm here to do things, not to go to the mountains and rivers, besides, who wants to change easily in a rich place?" ”
Guo Zongxun's gaze roamed back and forth on the sand table, and finally landed in one place, "I choose here!" ”
Zhao Er looked at it in a flash, and was stunned for a moment, "Your Highness, this is the poorest place in Hebei, and it has just suffered a disaster!" I'm afraid it's not right! ”
He looked at Ye Hua as if asking for help, and at this time, Ye Hua also walked over and looked at the place where Guo Zongxun pointed his finger...... Yecheng!
In an instant, Ye Hua's pupils contracted, and he said with a wry smile: "Your Highness, Yecheng is not only poor, but also veterans everywhere, even the officials are not sure!" ”
"Master, I don't see it that way, it's because I'm the poorest that it's easiest to change, so I'll choose Yecheng!" Guo Zongxun is extremely determined!
