Chapter 36: Planning the University

When Lu Chengqi heard this, he smiled and said, "The way of science has existed since the pre-Qin Dynasty. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Among the hundreds of info sons, the Mo family and the public loss class are the most prominent. What do I mean, can the master understand? ”

Yang Taishi is a human essence, the older he gets, the more refined he becomes, where can he not see that Lu Chengqi wants to suppress Confucianism? Since Dong Zhongshu of the Han Dynasty proposed the unity of heaven and man and the exclusive respect for Confucianism, Confucianism has been in the limelight for a while. The consequences of Confucianism can be seen by everyone. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were many families, which controlled the minds of the vast majority of people and imprisoned the progress of the Chinese nation. When the Jin Dynasty was treated, it was generally the same, which made the Hu people invade and the people of the Han family suffered.

After the establishment of the Great Shun Dynasty, it was also generally emphasized in literature and suppressed martial arts, and in less than a hundred years, the seemingly stable country was troubled internally and externally. In the final analysis, it is all because of the imprisonment of the mind. You must know that Confucianism pays attention to aristocratic education, which is far from the "education without class" in the mouth of Confucius and Confucius. The consequence is that the people of the Dashun Dynasty have an illiteracy rate of up to ninety percent! This kind of foolish policy may be able to work for a while, but it will be too late to regret it until the sabre of the alien race. Isn't that the case in the Qing Dynasty in later generations?

But Lu Chengqi can see clearly, but Master Yang can't see clearly! He said cautiously: "Your Majesty, will such a drastic move cause turmoil in the world?" The hearts of the scholars in this world were originally oriented towards the imperial court, and if Confucianism was deposed like this, I am afraid it would ......"

Lu Chengqi smiled and waited for Taishi Yang to finish speaking, before he said: "Taishi has also taken care of the government in the court, do you know what the Dashun Dynasty has reached now?" ”

Master Yang sighed slightly, and said: "How can the old man not know that the officials are rolling against each other, there are many friends, and there is a miasma. Every time I think of this, I feel cold sweat. Fortunately, Your Majesty has turned the tide and cleared the officialdom, otherwise the old man is afraid that the country will be ruined by my hands! ”

Lu Chengqi said with a straight face: "The master is serious, my Chinese nation has never lacked heroic righteousness, and there will always be someone who will come forward and turn the tide." I don't want to shake the status of Confucianism all at once, but the consequences of exalting Confucianism are too serious, and every time I think about it, I feel a chill on my back. After thinking about it, I still think that it can't go on like this. Therefore, I want to promote the hundred schools of thought through the university and benefit the people with the way of science. I also understand that relying on a university alone will not make a climate, but I can mobilize the gentry and wealthy businessmen of the world to donate to Limeng to improve the literacy rate of the people. If there is a surplus of money, I will not hesitate to allocate funds to build a school. My grand wish is to let all the people of Dashun have a school, everyone has a book to read, and everyone is sensible! ”

After hearing this, Taishi Yang felt that there were one or two points feasible, but he still had doubts: "What Your Majesty said is too huge, and the old man does not dare to agree." It's just that this university is advocated by His Majesty, doesn't it mean that Your Majesty values these strange skills and ingenuity, and the hearts of the world's scholars will be cold? ”

Lu Chengqi said: "I don't plan to recruit these scholars who have been brainwashed by the Four Books and Five Classics, and they are not suitable for learning these. I plan to recruit only those who are interested in the way of science, even if they have not read books and are illiterate, I am willing to recruit them. Externally, it is claimed that the university is not suitable for learning Confucianism, but only for learning strange skills and tricks, so that those scholars who respect Confucianism alone will belittle the university and will not make any trouble. Ten years of trees, 100 years of people. Education has a long way to go. I have pinned all my hopes on the teacher, you and I are one, one is prosperous, and the other is lost. ”

Yang Taishi was shocked by Lu Chengqi's "whimsical" approach, but it seemed that he was on Lu Chengqi's thief ship, and he also felt a little difficult to ride a tiger, plus he was already ambitious, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "Your Majesty trusts you, how can the old man not serve his life?" It's just that the old decay really doesn't understand the way of science, and there is nothing to be done! ”

Lu Chengqi said with a smile: "Teachers are only responsible for teaching literacy to those who are illiterate, and most of them in universities are learning in the form of discussions, without the guidance of teachers." No, I will also go to the class, so the teacher doesn't have to worry about it. ”

Only then did Taishi Yang say: "That old decay can only obey his fate." ”

Lu Chengqi said with a smile: "Teacher, I have already ordered someone to secretly build in the suburbs, and the university will be completed in just one month." Teachers must be prepared to take up their duties as soon as the time comes. ”

The two exchanged pleasantries again and finalized the issue of the origin of students, and Lu Chengqi said goodbye and left. Seeing that it was still early, Lu Chengqi said, "Yanchen, go to the Royal Military Academy." ”

Wang Yanchen said puzzledly: "Son, why do you want to see those big bosses in this cold day?" ”

Lu Cheng knocked on his head with a folding fan and said, "If you are told to go, what nonsense?" ”

Wang Yanchen has followed Lu Chengqi a lot, knowing that this emperor has no fight, and when he is in a good mood, he can still joke with them, and naturally he does not have the feeling of accompanying the king like a tiger. With a smile and a guard in front to lead the way, Wang Yanchen smiled and said: "Son, I am also from the border army, I know their temperament, now at this time, they must be nested in the quilt and can't get up!" ”

Lu Chengqi glanced at him angrily and said, "If all the soldiers in the world were like you, I'm afraid that the Great Shun Dynasty would have been finished long ago." ”

Wang Yanchen shrank his head, when it came to this, he didn't dare to talk nonsense. After a short time, everyone stepped on the snow and came to the Royal Military Academy. Before he was informed, Lu Chengqi had already heard the earth-shattering shouting and killing sound outside the door, and said in his heart: "Di Qing is really Di Qing, he governs the army very strictly, and he trains even on such a snowy day!" ”

After the sentry post has checked that the token is correct, it can be released. Lu Chengqi was familiar with the road and went straight to the training ground, only to see that in the heavy snow, more than 100 officers were training spear assassination.

Lu Chengqi quietly stopped in the snow to watch, and after a cup of tea, the training could be stopped. After Di Qing announced his disbandment, the exhausted officers all returned to their camps, and Di Qing came forward to pay respects.

Lu Chengqi said with a smile: "Di Qing's strictness in governing the army is rare in the world!" ”

Di Qing said: "Your Majesty still teaches you a good lesson, train more in peacetime, and shed less blood in wartime." Lao Chen believes that an elite soldier and an officer are the soul of the army. If the officers don't lead by example, which of the soldiers below will obey? ”

Lu Chengqi nodded and said, "From these more than 100 officers, I have seen the appearance of a million troops. Di Qing, do you know why? ”

Di Qing thought for a moment and shook his head. Lu Chengqi sighed: "These officers are like a seed, after taking root in a unit, it will make more soldiers like him." Veterans lead new recruits, so snowballing, isn't there more and more? It's just that a recruit is a recruit after all, even if he has iron-blooded discipline, he can't compare to a veteran! ”

Di Qing also said: "That's the truth, I didn't expect Your Majesty to be so proficient in military training!" ”

Lu Chengqi waved his hand and said, "I'm just talking on paper, just like Zhao Kuo. Di Qing has been on the battlefield, and I hope that you will not be stingy with experience, and that you will see yourself as a seed that will teach them the way, and I will be pleased. ”

Di Qing said categorically: "Your Majesty reuses the old minister, and the old minister will definitely live up to the king's expectations!" ”

Lu Chengqi took out a copy of the "Infantry Drill Code" compiled by himself according to the training methods of the Qi family army in his memory, he had long wanted to discuss it with Di Qing, but he was worried about Di Qing's face. But after thinking about it, he is the emperor, are you afraid that a veteran will not succeed?

Di Qingzai carefully flipped through this "Infantry Drill Code", and stopped talking. Lu Chengqi said: "Di Qing, if you have any opinions, you may wish to put them forward, and you and I will refer to them together." ”
