Recently, due to the matter of craftsmen, the relationship between Wei Shuo and his subordinate officials has been a little tense. Whether it is Pei Wei, Lu Chang, Gao Zhan, Han Shou, and Yang Tan, they are all dissatisfied with Wei Shuo's wanton promotion of the status of craftsmen.

Of course, the vast majority of people will not abandon Wei Shuo and seek another job because of this matter, after all, they have been with Wei Shuo for a long time, and they all know what kind of person Wei Shuo is, and there is no better choice than Wei Shuo in Liaodong.

Thanks to the current chaos in the world, any changes and attempts are not as eye-catching as usual, most people pinch their noses and acquiesce, and only a few people express a few words of dissatisfaction to Wei Shuo in private.

In order to appease the dissatisfaction in the hearts of his subordinates as soon as possible, Wei Shuo deliberately made the groundbreaking ceremony of Pingzhou State School extremely grand, and also invited all the high-level civil and military officials of Liaodong to the scene to participate in the groundbreaking ceremony of State School.

In Wei Shuo's planning, township school, county school, and county school are equivalent to the primary school, junior high school, and high school of later generations, and state school is the university of later generations.

Since occupying Xiangping, Wei Shuo has intended to build Xiangping into the economic, political, and military center of the entire Liaodong. On the original scale, he plans to expand the size of the city several times and build it into the premier metropolis in eastern Liaodong. In order to select a site for Liaodong Prefecture School, Wei Shuo deliberately built the State School in the north of Xiangping City, preparing to build the north of the city into a 'university district'.

At this time, in the open space in the north of Xiangping, a large area of land has been leveled. Led by Wei Shuo, civil and military officials at all levels in Liaodong gathered in the north of the city, happily looking at the barren land around them, although there was nothing eye-catching, but everyone was still quite high-natured, because they all knew that in the future, a university hall with a capacity of 30,000 people would be born on this land.

Of course, the happiest are still the head of Xuecao, Huangfu Qi, Liu Zan, Zhu Zuoche, Hu Wuyi, Kong Su and other Liaodong scholars, who have always been under Wei Shuo, and their sense of existence is very weak. Giving advice is not what a few people are good at, and their favorite thing is to engage in learning.

Like Liu Zan and Kong Su, they are both well-known Confucian scholars, and their greatest wish is just to find a stable place to teach their apprentices. It's a pity that the desire to be born in troubled times gradually turned into a luxury, and it wasn't until they met Wei Shuo that they had the opportunity to show their strengths.

"My lord, this ...... Is such a large area a state school? ”

Liu Zan couldn't believe it, looking at the large barren place around him, he really didn't expect Wei Shuo to have such great courage. While all the heroes are trying their best to spend all their resources on training troops, building weapons, etc., the lord of his own family has taken out a large amount of money for education, which shows that Wei Shuo's insight far exceeds that of others.

"Of course, in the future, there will be not only a place for students to take classes, but also a place for teachers and students to rest, live and play. In the future, tens of thousands of people will be accommodated to study and live here. ”

The school that Wei Shuo wanted to build was naturally different from the ancient Taixue, in which the doctors mainly taught scriptures. However, in Weishuo's planning, the future Pingzhou Prefecture School will accommodate various theories such as agriculture, commerce, engineering, history, literature, and arithmetic. It will completely change the situation of the single discipline in Taixue in the Wei and Jin dynasties of the Han Dynasty and the Wei and Jin dynasties, and restore it to the grand occasion of the Jixia School Palace in the Spring and Autumn Period.

"In the future, this will be the Jixia School Palace in Liaodong!"

"Jixia Academy?"

"That's right, it's the Jixia School Palace! Here, students will not only study various Confucian classics, but also study medicine, agriculture, business, and other studies related to people's livelihood. We have trained a large number of doctors, agricultural technicians, master craftsmen, and so on! ”

"My lord, this ...... Isn't that okay? Liu Zan, Kong Su, and Huangfu Qi listened to Wei Shuo's words, and their faces changed greatly.

"Wei knows what you're worried about, but you're too worried. I have no intention of shaking the mainstream position of Confucianism in the field of Chinese ********, and I will continue to uphold the concept of governing the country with Confucianism in the future! ”

Wei Shuo's words were not purely to comfort the Confucian scholars led by Liu Zan, Kong Su, Pei Wei and others, but to make a commitment considering the importance of Confucianism in Chinese history. You must know that since the Western Han Dynasty 'respected Confucianism alone and overthrew a hundred schools', the status of Confucianism has not been shaken.

Until modern times, some Confucian ideas are still influencing the lives of Chinese people, which shows how important Confucianism is to Chinese people. Of course, Confucianism is not perfect and has many flaws, but these are not excuses for completely rejecting Confucianism.

In Wei Shuo's view, establishing the dominance of Confucianism in the field of ******** is definitely conducive to the long-term peace and stability of the country. In fact, it is very appropriate to regard Confucianism only as a guiding ideology, rather than as a specific means of governing the country.

"In the future planning, Confucianism will be our guiding ideology, and all policies and regulations governing the country must be in line with Confucianism. However, some outdated ideas in Confucianism must be eliminated, such as valuing agriculture and suppressing business, discriminating against soldiers, artisans, and so on! ”

"You are all resourceful and far-reaching people, and you should know very well that there is no panacea for all diseases in this world, and there will be no perfect concept of governance. If Confucianism wants to develop, it must keep pace with the times and know how to look at things from the perspective of development. Liu Xuezheng and Kong Xuezheng are both respected Confucian scholars, and I hope that the two of you can calm down and concentrate on summarizing the gains and losses of Confucianism over the years, and find a new Confucianism that is more in line with our future needs! ”

Wei Shuo's words brought a huge impact to everyone present, but it did not cause riots, after the impact of the Wei and Jin dynasties, the status of Confucianism is now far inferior to the Han Dynasty. In this era, it was Lao Zhuang thought that dominated the country, while Confucianism was in a dormant period since the Han Dynasty. During this dormant period, after some reflection and transformation, Confucian scholars finally bloomed brilliantly again in the Tang Dynasty.

"Does the lord mean to reinvent Confucianism? Just like Dong Gong did at the beginning? Kong Su couldn't believe that his lord had such ambitions.

"That's right, it's to reinvent Confucianism, you are Dong Zhongshu of Wei! I hope that with the help of the two of you, I will abandon the narrow thinking of the past and transform Confucianism into a new Confucianism that is inclusive, inclusive, and inclusive. ”

Pei Wei, Gao Zhan, Lu Chang, Huang Fuqi and others couldn't help but lose their minds when they looked at Wei Shuo and talked about Wei Shuo. They have been in contact with Wei Shuo for a long time, and they have long known that their lord is by no means an ordinary person, but they never expected Wei Shuo to think so far-reaching. At a time when many people are still busy grabbing land and plundering wealth, their own lords have set their sights on the governance of the country after reunification.

……

The construction of the state school should not be sloppy, first of all, the main framework should be built first, and at present, the county government is a little financially tight, and the rest can only be built slowly. In order to run the first university, Wei Shuo provided a large area of land to Pingzhou Prefecture School, and the headquarters alone has about 3,000 acres of land.

However, it is not enough for a school to have a perfect infrastructure, Wei Shuo thought of this and said to the subordinates present: "The head of the Huangfu and the three scholars, the state school has officially started, and it will be completed in a year at most." But we still need a large number of teachers, as we all know that Liaodong is a remote place, culture and education are not prosperous, and it is not easy to find enough teachers. ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, some are famous families, some are academics, and there must be many acquaintances. I would like to ask the public to use all means to invite enough talents for Liaodong as much as possible. ”

Pei Wei and the others listened to Wei Shuo's instructions and couldn't help but feel a little worried. They naturally wanted to find their relatives and friends, but Liaodong was far away from the Central Plains, and there were several separatist forces in between. Even if they convince their relatives and friends, they will not be able to move.

"Lord, even if people agree, why do you come to my Liaodong?"

"It seems that Wei Mou has not thought it through, so he has to work hard for the brothers of the water master. As long as you accept the invitation, you can transfer to Qingzhou, Laoshan, Xuzhou, and Zhuqi, and then take the people who come to us to Liaodong by sea. ”

With the successful completion of the groundbreaking ceremony of the state school, all the civil servants in Liaodong rejoiced at this, while those generals were a little disappointed. Seeing this, Wei Shuo came to Mr. Liu, Zhang Tong, Nengchen and others to comfort him: "Don't worry, when the finances are relaxed in the future, I will definitely put the construction of the military academy on the agenda as soon as possible." Here, I can promise you that the construction of military academies will definitely be put on the agenda in the second half of next year at the most. ”

The generals were immediately overjoyed when they heard Wei Shuo's promise, and they asked questions around Wei Shuo, hoping to get more information from his mouth. Now seeing that the state school hall was planned by Wei Shuo in such a grand manner, the generals couldn't help but fantasize about the future military academy.
