Chapter 376: Education (1)

Since Guo Bin stepped into the research room with Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu today, Sima Hui knew that he was going to make a big move again.

Xi Zhi is the first strategist to follow Guo Bin, and it can be said that he has witnessed the whole process of Guo Bin changing from a penniless poor boy to a powerful officialdom celebrity step by step, and he is also Guo Bin's most valued right-hand man. And Xun Yu, although he was not the first to enter Guo Bin's scene, and he was even a long time later than Xu Shu, but he was also highly respected by Guo Bin.

Xun Yu is an upright person, but he is by no means an ignorant of the world, a fledgling stunned young man, the identity of the son of the Xun clan in Yingyin makes him not only accept the top education and training of this era, with a very high IQ, but also the experience of living in a big family also makes him accustomed to seeing the world. In addition, the Xun family is very wealthy, and Xun Yu has done a good job in learning, so he has a very high status in the family, and he does not have to bother with food and clothing. The so-called wall stands thousands of people, and if there is no desire, it is rigid. Xun Yu's arrogance is engraved in his bones, how can ordinary people get into his eyes?

Of course, Xun Yu's so-called arrogance has never been shown on his face or in his actions, which is completely different from Xi Zhicai's approachability and uninhibitedness. Although he has always been kind and pleasant when talking to people, and he has never seen how to reprimand his subordinates sharply, most of them are afraid that he is too scared, even Zhang Fei, who is a rough billet, has always been respectful and respectful in front of Xun Yu, and he has always followed the rules, and even speaks a lot more gently. The archives and materials of Guo Bin's various people are all in the hands of Xun Yu, and his role is equivalent to the so-called organization minister in later generations, which can be described as a high authority.

Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu, together with Xu Shu, are known as the three major ministers under Guo Bin, and they are all important ministers of the day. These people are so busy every day, and now that Guo Bin has brought two of them together, how could Sima Hui not think that there will be another big move? At that moment, he snorted and said: "These students have limited learning, and they should still focus on their studies, if they are all stuffed into the officialdom, I am afraid that they will delay their studies." ”

For Guo Bin, a disciple, Sima Hui naturally likes it very much, but there is one thing that is quite slanderous. In order to strengthen the control under his rule, Guo Bin would often select outstanding students who were studying to be appointed as officials or engaged in them, which admittedly made the entire Yangzhai County firmly controlled by Guo Bin, but in Sima Hui's view, it also delayed their studies. It's just that Confucianism has always had a tradition of learning and excelling, and it has become a public servant from an ordinary person, for ordinary students from poor families, it is tantamount to a carp jumping over the dragon gate, but Sima Hui is inconvenient to stop it. However, despite this, it is inevitable that Guo Bin's quick success and quick profit will be complained.

Guo Bin said: "What Mr. said is very true. However, what Bin wanted this time was to send them down to support the education of the counties. ”

When Sima Hui heard this, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Oh? What kind of support method? ”

Like most teachers, Sima Hui has an inexplicable dedication and enthusiasm for communication and learning. Confucianism has always had a high enthusiasm for spreading its own doctrines, and education is an extremely important part of Confucius's thoughts. Therefore, now that he has heard that Guo Bin wants to support the education of various counties, Sima Hui is naturally very concerned.

Guo Bin said: "The so-called teaching is mutually beneficial. My idea is that Mr. will go to the counties to teach new learning by simply selecting people with excellent knowledge and high virtue in Yangzhai County. ”

Sima Hui muttered: "What does Qianyang mean by reopening the order of the school in Yingchuan County? ”

The so-called "school order" refers to the system of government education from the county level and below. The education system of the Han Dynasty was divided into official and private schools, with official schools referring to the places of learning established by the government, while private schools were mostly ethnic studies founded by wealthy families in various places. The official education of the Han Dynasty is divided into two kinds of central and local, the local official school began in the last years of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, when the Shu County Taishou Wenwen wanted to change customs and implement education, he first selected more than ten smart people from the county officials to Chang'an, and studied in the doctorate, which can be described as the earliest entrusted training measures. A few years later, these people returned. So Wen Weng set up a school in Chengdu, recruited the children of the county to enroll, and those who completed the school were given reuse, or recommended to the imperial court as an official, and Shu County has flourished since then.

Comparatively speaking, the emergence of the central government school was much later.

During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he adopted Dong Zhongshu's "Three Strategies of Heaven and Man", the so-called "May Your Majesty Xingtaixue, place the Master, and raise the people of the world", and set up Taixue in Chang'an in the fifth year of Yuanshuo (124 BC). The way out of Taixue students after graduation is different: in addition to those who have learned but have not become vain, some of them have become ministers, some have become officials, and some have accepted apprentices as teachers. At the beginning, the fundamental purpose of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to establish Taixue was to improve the efficiency of official governance and strengthen the centralization of power.

Therefore, since its establishment, Taixue has become the entry stage of the majority of scholars, and it is also one of the important tools for the imperial court to attract scholars and maintain social stability. Driven by interests, people have the motivation to enter Taixue for further study, which has formed a trend of increasing the scale of Taixue.

At the beginning of the establishment of Taixue, there were only 50 doctoral disciples, and the doctors of the Five Classics were taught separately, and later in order to envelop the scholar class, the number of Tai students continued to increase, and the number of Tai students increased to 100 when Emperor Zhao, 200 people when Emperor Xuan, 1,000 people when Emperor Yuan, and 3,000 people when Emperor Cheng. By the time of Emperor Qiandi of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were as many as 30,000 students.

In the central government, in addition to the university-like schools of Taixue, there are special schools, such as "Hongdumen School", "Four Surnames Xiaohou School" and so on.

Founded in February of the first year of Emperor Guanghe of the Eastern Han Dynasty (178 AD), Hongdu Menxue was the product of an internal struggle within the ruling class, that is, the eunuch faction in order to cultivate intellectuals who supported themselves and competed with the Taixue who were occupied by the Shi clan. He also took advantage of Emperor Ling's love of words, fu, calligraphy, and painting to set up this new type of school.

The four-surnamed Xiaohou Xue is a kind of aristocratic school in the Eastern Han Dynasty, which is specially designed for the children of relatives and ministers, also known as "official residence learning". The four surnames refer to the children of the four surnames of Fan, Guo, Yin, and Ma in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Emperor Ming advocated Confucianism, especially for the children of the four surnames, and the four surnames Xiaohou Xue.

In addition to the central government school, it is the local government school.

During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he promoted the experience of Wen Weng Xingxue, and was "a school official in all counties and countries in the world". In the first three years of Emperor Ping (3 AD), the local government school system was promulgated. Local governments at all levels are required to set up schools in general: those located in counties are called "schools", those located in counties (counties, provinces, yi, and houguo) are called "schools", those located in townships are called "zhen", and those located in villages ("ju") are called "order". What Sima Hui said is this system.

However, although this system was established as early as the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it was not effectively implemented, and the establishment of local schools in the Han Dynasty still depended on the will of the local governors. As a result, local schools are not widespread, and few of the schools that have been established can last for a long time, or are they

It's just a name. It is precisely for this reason that Sima Hui has the words of "reopening".

Guo Bin said: "The school was set up at the same time, and it cost a lot, and it is not easy to train scholars, and everyone in Yangzhai County has not been studying for a long time. ”

Sima Hui nodded, of course he knew that Guo Bin was not a mediocre person who fished and killed chickens and eggs, so he asked, "Then what do you mean?" ”

Guo Bin said: "Upgrade Yangzhai County School to Yingchuan County School, and then set up county schools in each county. ”

"However, how do students in the county school enroll? How is it selected? But according to the example of Yangzhai County? Sima Hui is really often engaged in education, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he asked about the point.

If it is according to the example of Yangzhai County, then it is bound to be a major financial expenditure for the entire Yingchuan County, that is, with Guo Bin's net worth and Yingchuan County's family background, if he wants to support the compulsory education of school-age children in the county, the financial pressure is undoubtedly huge. If you want to do everything to educate you, it will be difficult for the county government to take care of other things.

Because according to the example of Yangzhai County School, all school-age students do not need to pay tuition fees to go to school, and in addition to a glass of milk or goat's milk to drink every morning, a free meal must be provided at noon. In addition to these, the Treasury also needs to invest a lot of money in the construction of school buildings, the hiring of teachers, the distribution of a blackboard for each student to practice calligraphy and record at the beginning of the school year, and a thick blank record book for each student each school year.

Although the amount of money to be spent on each pile seems to be inconspicuous, once the amount is large, it becomes a large expense. Now in troubled times, although the Yellow Turban Rebellion has subsided, thieves in various places under the pretense of Taiping Road are rampant. Therefore, the local government and wealthy families have hoarded a large amount of grain and repaired military equipment, where is the surplus money to put on education?

This booklet, which is distributed to the students every school year, is used to keep track of the texts taught by the teacher each day. Because the development of movable type printing is far from mature, and the new papermaking technology has not yet been popularized on a large scale, the printing of textbooks has become a major problem that plagues Yangzhai County. After some discussion, Fang came up with such a solution. Although this does not save the necessary cost of papermaking, it not only saves the cost of printing textbooks separately, but also enables students to consolidate their knowledge through hand-recorded textbooks.

In order to prevent errors in the hand-recorded, Guo Bin specially asked Sima Hui to imitate Cai Yong and others in the method of engraving the "Xiping Stone Scripture" in front of the gate of Guozijian, and engraved the textbook of Xinxue outside the gate of Yangzhai County School for students to copy and correct. In addition, it is also copied and circulated for people who are interested in new learning outside the school, because the new school examination has become the standard for the admission of officials in Yangzhai County, and it is used to be bustling before "Yangzhai County Learning Stone Carving", and tourists and students are shoulder to shoulder. It is foreseeable that with the improvement of Guo Bin's status and the gradual control of the entire Yingchuan County, this situation will only intensify.

Undoubtedly, with the improvement of Guo Bin's control over Yingchuan County, this system of selecting officials will be extended to the entire territory of Yingchuan, and the rise of Xinxue in Yingchuan County has shown an irrepressible trend, and the rapid development of Yingchuan County's economy will in turn promote the expansion of Xinxue's influence in the Han Dynasty. The spark of Xinxue that arose from Fulong Villa in Zhongyang Zhai County, Yingchuan County, which was originally a small cottage with a little-known name, has faintly had the potential to burn the prairies.
