Chapter 255: Ask the lowly servants to give advice

On the twentieth day of the first month of the second year of Yonglong in the Tang Dynasty, Gaozong had a head attack because of the old problem, unable to deal with political affairs, and the queen of heaven Wu took the initiative to take on government affairs, with the left servant shooting, with the third grade Liu Renliang and the prince and the young master, and the servant Hao Chujun was the prince Shaobao, and the governor of the political affairs Empress Wu continued to win over Liu Renliang in this process, but took the opportunity to fight Hao Chujun, on the grounds of his age, although he was given a prince Shaobao's treatment from the second grade, but he was finally deposed of his phase, and later after some controversy, He quickly appointed Pei Yan, the waiter of the Yellow Gate, as the servant of the Yellow Gate, and the left concubine of the prince, and appointed Cui Zhiwen, the waiter of the Yellow Gate, and Xue Yuanchao, the waiter of the Zhongshu, as the Zhongshu Order, and the guest of the prince.

In addition, Empress Wu also appointed Fan Lubing as the crown prince Zhan Shi (Zheng Sanpin), with the decree of the three temples of the East Palace, and Liu Jingxian as the prince's guest.

As a result, a large part of Li Xian's key members are all members of the Wuhou Party, and these people are all members of the imperial court, and their power and status are so high that Li Xian, the prince, is also sideways.

In addition, the two prime ministers Zhang Wenqian and Dai Zhide, who Li Xian had tried his best to entrap before, died of illness one after another, which made Li Xian's control over the court significantly weakened, and it was even worse than when he was the king of Zhou.

However, Li Xian seemed to be nothing, after all, it was also the inertia of the Empress Wu to install people, and if there were no people, it would be a strange thing.

Li Xian did not have any doubts about these actions of the Empress Wu at all, but accepted the "assistance" of these people very calmly. In fact, for him, although these constraints on the surface are indeed constraints, they are not too big a matter for him.

Because his Tang Sect is now rising in secret, although the background among the prime ministers is not deep enough, or even almost none, but among the middle and low-level courtiers, Li Xian's power has actually faintly surpassed the power of the Empress Wu.

Half a year after entering the East Palace, Li Xian finally started his first big move, and his big move was to write to the emperor, asking for the expansion of education in various states and counties, the expansion of schools, and the cultivation of talents, which immediately set off an uproar.

Above the court, there was a discussion because of a letter from the crown prince Li Xian requesting the expansion of state and county schools.

Empress Wu, who sat on the throne with Gaozong, was the first to speak: "Ladies and gentlemen, the prince went to the court yesterday and asked to expand the state and county schools, cultivate talents, and contribute to the prosperity of my Tang Dynasty. ”

As soon as Empress Wu said this, he was immediately opposed by his subordinates, only to hear Yang Sixuan, the son of the country, go out of class first and say: "Queen of Heaven, expand the school." Cultivating talents can allow more people to be educated by saints, the prince's intention is good, but for so many years, why have the ministers failed to implement it in this way? In fact, there are many reasons for this, first of all, there are big families in various places, and their families have their own schools, even the families of the small rich can afford to hire private schools, so the effect of opening a school is not great......"

"Otherwise, for Yang Sai Wine's words, Wei Chen dare not agree, Tianhou Niangniang, although Yang Sai Jiu said a lot of truth, but this does not mean that the opening of the school is ineffective, because in addition to the big clans and rich households, there are many poor children in the world who do not go to school, not unwilling, it is really poor at home, unable to bear the restraints, if the state and county schools can be as simple as Taixue to enroll in the school, and for the reduction and exemption of tuition fees, presumably the state and county schools will also flourish, I am the peak of talents, Wouldn't it show me more that the Tang Dynasty was prosperous? ”

It was the servant Shi Luo Bin Wang, who himself was born poor, and naturally sincerely appreciated Li Xian's proposal, and immediately refuted it after hearing the words of Yang Sixuan, the son of the country.

Yang Sixuan saw that someone denied his point of view, and immediately said unhappily: "Luo Yushi said it lightly, even if it is a poor person who wants to enroll, but how much additional manpower and material resources do you need to pay in the local area?" Even if the cost of food and sleeping for students is excluded, how much does it cost to hire a doctoral teaching assistant? Even if this is negligible, how many scriptures need to be copied to meet the needs of schooling? If a student learns without scriptures, it is like a cook without rice, water without a source, or a tree without roots. ”

"In fact, it is not difficult to solve the problem of doctoral teaching assistants, as long as the local government can arrange food and accommodation for the fallen scholars, and pay a certain salary on a monthly basis, a large number of literati will come to apply, so as to not only solve the problem of local teachers, but also solve the living problems of the fallen literati, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone."

Wang Bo, the son of the country, deserves to be a smart man, and after a little thought, he solved a big problem, and incidentally solved another social problem that plagued the imperial court.

But Yang Sixuan still smiled disdainfully, and then arched his hand and said: "Wang Siye, you are also an official of my country's sub-prison, and naturally you also know all the things in the school, let me ask Wang Siye, even if the problems you said are solved, but how to solve the problem of scriptures that the official just mentioned?" How many people do you want to use to copy the scriptures by hand? ”

"This ......" Whether it is Luo Bingwang or Wang Bo, they are all speechless after hearing this rhetorical question, because they really haven't thought of a solution to this problem.

At this time, I suddenly saw Li Xian and said lightly: "Yang Aiqing, this palace can solve this matter." ”

"Oh? I wonder if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has any clever plan to solve such a big problem? Wechen would like to hear about it. Yang Sixuan saw that Li Xian actually stood up in person, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then there was a burst of ecstasy, because the camp of the Empress Wu only dispatched himself, and forced the boss of the prince's party out, it can be seen that the other party is already poor in donkey skills, if he can refute Li Xian speechlessly, then this time Li Xian's fanfare can only be declared a miscarriage.

This is the first confrontation between the prince and the queen of heaven after Li Xian became the prince.

However, Yang Sixuan still stabilized his mind and looked at Li Xian calmly, seeing what kind of clever plan he could come up with.

But Li Xian said lightly: "Luo Yushi and Wang Siye have already had a countermeasure to this matter, but they are reluctant to say it directly, because the way to solve this problem is too simple, if these two talents are allowed to say it, it will undoubtedly insult their IQ, but such a simple method, I don't know if Yang Xijiu has thought of it?" Hehe, this palace estimates that Yang Saijiu is naturally unexpected, otherwise it will not have an ignorant look, or if you look so eager to learn, this palace will ask a lowly servant to guide you in the main hall.
