Chapter 226: The Doctor Goes to Southern Xinjiang
Li Zhi was deeply inspired by the two strategies for governing southern Xinjiang proposed by Si Yang, and repeatedly pondered in the palace the results that would be achieved in the specific implementation of the two policies. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The success of this policy will be exchanged for the long-term peace and stability of more than 100 counties in southern Xinjiang, not now, when the counties of the counties have rebelled from time to time, and have been repeatedly suppressed, not to mention paying taxes and recruiting soldiers and horses to help the country.
In the past few days, Li Zhi convened the ministers of the DPRK and the central government to discuss the selection of scholars and literati who had read Confucian scriptures from the Guozijian, Taixue, Hongwenguan, and Chongwenguan in the two capitals, and entrusted them with the posts of Shi and Sima, the magistrates of the counties in southern Xinjiang, and supervised the official studies after taking office. Then recruit doctors of Confucianism from all over the world to serve as magistrates, doctors of economics, and teaching assistants in various prefectures.
Li Jingxuan, Zhang Wenqian and other courtiers did not agree to select students from Guozijian, Taixue, Hongwenguan, and Chongwenguan to serve in Guanzhou County in southern Xinjiang.
Zhang Wenjun admonished: "The two schools and the two halls are where the pillars of the country are cultivated by the imperial court, how can they be sent to the land of barbarians to serve and waste talents?" ”
In addition to Zhang Wenqian and others admonishing and opposing them, after learning the news that His Majesty would send students from the two schools and the second hall to serve in southern Xinjiang, many ministers of civil and military affairs in the DPRK and China wrote to admonish: "Outstanding people are like important weapons of the country, and the students of the two schools and two museums are the places where the world's outstanding people gather, and they are the future reliance of the imperial court." His Majesty did not give them official reuse today, but put them in a wild and remote place, just like abandoning a treasure jade in the wilderness. ”
Li Zhi was taken aback by the advice of the ministers of the DPRK and China, and just wanted to select a group of students with outstanding study of Confucian classics from the two schools and the second hall to grant them the official posts of the county in the southern Xinjiang Prefecture, so that they could realize the political concept of turning barbarism into summer in Confucianism, but they were opposed by many ministers of the DPRK and China.
Why is that?
Li Zhi was a little angry and summoned the prime ministers to reprimand.
But Prime Minister Zhang Da'an, Zhongshu Ling Yan Liben, and Dongtai Waiter Hao Chujun knew the stakes, and they were afraid of offending their colleagues, causing a commotion, and they talked about him from the left. Zhang Wenjun, Li Jingxuan and others did not give up, and still seized the opportunity to persuade Li Zhi not to lose talents in the two schools and two museums in southern Xinjiang in vain.
Seeing that it was useless to ask questions, Li Zhi angrily rebuked the prime ministers, and said hatefully: "I am the king, and the implementation of the statecraft is only to seek more reasonable advice from courtiers and other courtiers, so as not to have inconsiderate things." Since you are all speaking out against it, why do I need to ask you for advice? ”
Li Zhi directly ordered Zhongshu Province to draft a will, select suitable people from the students of the two schools and two museums to be awarded the official Southern School, and recruited Confucian doctors from all over the world, and forced the Menxia Province to deliberate and approve it, and the Shangshu Province to implement it.
Li Hong didn't expect why so many courtiers would write to oppose the dispatch of officials to the county in southern Xinjiang, which made his eldest father angry.
As a performer of the second strategy, Li Hong came to the fourth brother's mansion depressed to relieve his worries.
"Hahaha! Big brother, you don't know the game when you are in the game. Why did many of the ministers of the court oppose it, just think back to the origin of the beings in the two schools and the second hall to understand their good intentions. Li Yu listened to the catharsis in his eldest brother's heart, shook his head and smiled.
Li Hong's face was stunned, he thought about it carefully, and muttered: "Guozixue, originally founded in the year of Wude, has five doctors, who are in charge of teaching the descendants of the third grade and above, and the great-grandchildren of the second grade and above are the living. Taixue, also founded in the first year of Wude, has six doctors; There are six teaching assistants. He is in charge of teaching the children and grandchildren of the county and county, and the great-grandchildren of the third grade are the living. Hongwen Hall, built in the fourth year of Wude, has 30 students with bachelor's degree professors and apprentices. Chongwen Hall, built in the thirteenth year of Zhenguan, has 2 bachelors and 2 school scholars, and 20 students......"
"The students in the Hongwen Pavilion and the Chongwen Pavilion are all relatives of the royal family, the queen mother, the queen and the queen, and the first product of the scattered officials, and the three products under the Zhongshu Sect are the same as the Pingshi Chapter under the Zhongshu Door, the Six Shangshu, the Meritorious Heroes, the descendants of the three grades of the Beijing official position, and the descendants of the Huangmen Shilang of the Zhongshu." Li Yu opened his mouth and said: "It is not that the courtiers oppose sending the students of the two schools and the second hall to southern Xinjiang, but they oppose sending their children to southern Xinjiang to suffer and suffer. The highest official position conferred is the position of governor Shi, and it is still far away from the southern Xinjiang barbarian land of the Beijing Division. For the people of Beijing, it is like degrading officials and exile, and they have to bear heavy responsibilities, their safety is difficult to protect, and their future is bleak, which makes the courtiers who are high-ranking officials in the court and Houlu bear to let their children and grandchildren go? Which one doesn't want his children and grandchildren to stay in Beijing, study hard, and when it is time to be conferred an official, enjoy the merits of their fathers and enter the office, and join the prosperous states and counties in the world is the expectation. ”
"How can this be reasonable, these courtiers only care about the safety and future of their children and grandchildren, so who will take care of the safety and future of the court?" Li Hong rebuked angrily, he didn't think that these courtiers wrote against the awe-inspiring righteousness on the surface, saying that the imperial court put the pillars of the country in the land of barbarians, just like abandoning pearls and jade in the wilderness. In fact, it was for his own selfishness, and he didn't want his children and grandchildren to be sent by the imperial court to southern Xinjiang to suffer and suffer.
"The ministers of the court and the central government promise that everyone is for the public, and the world has long been ruled every year, how can there be a saying of corrupt officials and corrupt officials!" Li Yu chuckled, "There is no one in the world who is not selfish, but it is just a matter of whether this selfishness is big or small." ”
Since he was a child, his eldest brother has been in the prosperous scene created for him by his father and mother, and the teacher who is responsible for teaching him is a good teacher carefully selected by his father, a real pure young man who has not been sinister in the world and has a complex human heart.
Even the story of the murder of the king by the prince of Chu Shizi Mi Shang recorded in the "Biography of the Zuo Family in the Spring and Autumn Period" is covered up and cannot bear to read, and it is not clear that Confucius recorded this matter in order to praise good deeds to advise the public, and denounce evil deeds to warn future generations of good intentions. If you don't understand from the book that not everyone in the world is good, how can you survive in this deceitful world? What's more, he is still the prince of a country!
Li Yu is not optimistic about Li Hong's succession to the throne in his heart, his heart is too kind, he doesn't know how to kill, he doesn't know how to be sinister, he will only be used by scheming traitors, but his benevolent heart has ended up in a disaster for the country and the people, and it has not happened in history.
A few days later, with the strong implementation of Li Zhi, more than 100 people who were full of Confucianism were selected from the two schools and two museums to be awarded the posts of Shi and Sima, the magistrates of Zhujian Prefecture in southern Xinjiang, and followed the expedition army of Liang Jishou, the head of the march of Yaozhou Road, to serve in the counties under the jurisdiction of Yao, Shan, Rong and other prefectures south of Jiannan Road.
At the same time, scholars and literati who have been educated in Confucianism were recruited to appoint officials and scholars, doctors, and teaching assistants who were to be established in various counties of Guanzhou.
It is a pity that when I heard that I was going to southern Xinjiang to educate the fierce and untamable barbarians, and just hearing about the dangers of the local poisonous insects, ants and beasts ravaging and the miasma in the forest, scared off many enthusiastic scholars. Moreover, the position conferred is not the most ardent official position for scholars, so that there are very few responders in the world.
At the end of January, the number of people gathered from the two capitals, and the number of Confucian scholars who responded to the call was only 100, which made Li Zhi, who was ready to do a big job, depressed.
In addition, the more than 100 people selected from the two schools and the two museums before, adding up to not even 300, were distributed to various counties in southern Xinjiang, and it was not enough for all of them to be appointed as Changshi and Sima, let alone to establish the doctors and teaching assistants needed for official schools.
Li Zhi, who had no choice but to promote all the 100 people who responded to the call, and entrusted him with the posts of Shi and Sima, the magistrates of Southern Xinjiang, and concurrently served as officials, scholars, and doctors, so as to educate the barbarians.
