Chapter 450 School Running

Throwing out the bait of the school-running plan, which set off storms inside and outside, Yang Reform has already played an important chess piece in this game of chess at the end of the year.

The snow has stopped in the past few days, and the weather has recovered a little.

Yang Reform got up early in the morning, the spirit is very refreshing, the recent school plan, has successfully attracted everyone's attention, whether it is for power, silver or reputation, many famous people as soon as they heard that it is such a major event to promote sacred learning and promote sacred learning, they have entered Lin Zhu's "school planning group" in order to hope that they will leave their name on this cultural event.

Lin Zhu instantly became the most dazzling "star" of the government and the opposition, and the school-running plan has also become a must-talk topic for the government and the opposition.

"Ome, what's important today?" Yang is in a good spirit of reform, dressing in the Qianqing Palace, preparing to go to the court, taking advantage of the gap to warm up the content of today's morning court.

"Your Majesty, in addition to discussing the merits of the war in the north today, the most important thing is that the officials are sparse and talk about running a school...... These notes are all about running a school, because there are too many, the slave and maid specially picked them out......" Wang Chengen said with a smile, after speaking, he also pointed to a big basket on the side, Wang Chengen knew that this thing was the smoke made by the emperor, seeing so many people "fooled", crazy about it, standing in the perspective of an "observer", naturally there is another feeling, this is the matter of turning over into clouds and covering hands for rain, probably that's it, this is just the beginning......

Yang Gai followed Wang Chengen's finger, and then noticed that there was a big basket on the side, and all of them were piled up with songs, one on top of the other.

Yang Gai smiled secretly, it seems that no one can get rid of fame and fortune! In such a famous thing, it is natural to take part in it, and I am on the right step.

"Lin Zhu's plan, how has it been done?" Yang Gengai turned around, continued to let the eunuchs dress shì, and asked.

"Back to Your Majesty, Lord Lin, now, the plan has only just started, and a general outline has been established...... This kind of "shocking" thing of the government and the opposition naturally has to be concerned from time to time, Wang Chengen saw the emperor's problem, and immediately said the progress.

"Hehehe......" Yang Gengai laughed for a while and didn't say anything.

……

Taihe Gate.

This is the first time since the snow this year that the court has come early, and the courtiers have also come exceptionally neatly.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live...... long live the courtiers, making Yang Reform, who is in a very refreshing spirit, feel even more refreshed, why are there so many people today? Is it that I haven't experienced this feeling for many days, and it's a little rusty, or is there really more people coming?

"All the Qing families are flat." Yang Gai shouted.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long." Then the courtiers arose.

The next content, according to the "convention", is the time for singing, and the eunuch is about to lead the singing. Yang Reform waved his hand, and Wang Chengen hurriedly stopped the eunuch who was leading the singing.

"Today, I won't listen to you sing the "Song of Righteousness", all of you are erudite people, the sage's words about the great harmony of the world, I think all of you still remember, I want to listen to the "Book of Rites and Rites" today, the sage said about the world Datong, from the trip of the avenue, the world is a public ......, to the end of the Datong here...... today, you will sing this......" Yang Reform's unhurried voice immediately rippled in this Taihe Gate.

Whoever can play is on it, what is it about? They are all running schools, and everyone who can come has come, so there are a lot of people, and there are already big officials standing outside the Taihe Gate, and they all talk about it after listening to the emperor's words.

The emperor wants to listen to the paragraph in the "Book of Rites and Rites" about the sage's remarks about the great harmony of the world, and none of the officials who can go to the court have not read these Confucian classics, and they all have goods in their stomachs, so they naturally know that the emperor is talking about that paragraph, why listen to this paragraph, and the ministers also understand in their hearts, it is estimated that it is related to Lin Zhu's school, and the ministers look around them again, and they all understand in their hearts that most of them are here for that matter, it seems that the emperor also agreed to that matter, so it seems that there is no need to fight on whether to do this matter, Then all that remains is how and who will do this, and the minds of the officials immediately turned.

After a little discussion among the courtiers, Wang Chengen motioned for the eunuch to start singing.

"The road is also a trip to the world, the world is for the public, the selection of talents and abilities, and the belief and harmony. The old man does not kiss his relatives alone, and he does not have only a son......" The eunuch's immature tone began to rise, and he sang in a high voice as much as possible, and gradually, the ministers also sang along with him. ,

Yang Reform couldn't help but nod, this effect is good, they all said to brainwash, see some ministers chanting, while shaking their heads with the rhythm, it seems that this effect is still very good, this time, just use the sage's remarks to set the tone of today's discussion, in the peaceful era of ancient China, you can oppose anyone, just don't oppose the sage, the next thing, it's easy to do, this sage, it's really a good signboard!

After singing, the whole Taihe Gate returned to calm! Yang Reform began to deliberate.

"Is there something to play this morning?" Yang asked Gengai.

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to play." Shi Fenglai was the first to stand up.

"What's the matter?" Yang reformed and said.

"Your Majesty, this year, our dynasty has won a great victory over the Dongyu outside the Guan, and the ministers have agreed on the merits of the relevant people according to Your Majesty's orders, and I also ask Your Majesty for permission." Shi Fenglai told this first.

"For all of you, see who deserve those rewards." Yang Reform said, in fact, this matter has been discussed a long time ago, here, it is just a passing motion, although it is a passing scene, but it is also quite important, sometimes it may break out what unpopularity is not sure.

"Yes!" Shi Fenglai agreed, and then tore open the reward book and read it.

“…… Prince Taibao, Zuo Du Governor, Dongjiang Town Chief Soldier Mao Wenlong was promoted to Zhuguo Guanglu Doctor, Prince Taifu, awarded ...... "The first one is Mao Wenlong's, as the merit of this northern battle, there is naturally no doubt, promotion is necessary, however, the title of Mao Wenlong has risen to almost the top, it is already the Prince Taibao, and then it is the title of "Emperor Division" level of Shaobao, obviously not, the title of the emperor is for the dead, and it is definitely not good for the living, even the current emperor's "imperial teacher", It's just a call for a master, and there is no real addition of a young master, Shaobao's titles, or knighthood, the ministers almost unanimously think that it is inappropriate, and the East has not been destroyed, why should he be a marquis? So, turning Mao Wenlong's crown prince into the prince and the prince has always been agreed by the cabinet, and the official positions of the prince and the prince are the same, but there is a slight difference in the ranking, so it is used to prevaricate Mao Wenlong, and it can be regarded as a promotion. It's a reward for silver, and it's quite generous with two silvers.

Officials at all levels below Mao Wenlong have been rewarded, Shi Fenglai read some, but he didn't read it, it was too much, even Yuan Chonghuan, who did not use a single soldier, also had a reward.

This kind of matter has been discussed for a long time, and no one has said anything against it, but it has been discussed long ago, and any inappropriateness has already been raised; Second, there are more important things to discuss, if you are always entangled in this matter, then what to do in the future? As a result, no one came out to pick on the thorns. And that's how the list of rewards passed.

"Well, yes, thanks to my Daming, you must be rewarded, so you have to handle it." Yang Reform said, this matter is over.

"But there's still something to do?" Yang asked again.

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do." A minister immediately came out and spoke in a loud voice.

"Oh, what's the matter?" Yang asked Gengai.

"Your Majesty, recently, it has been rumored in Beijing that Lord Lin Zhu is drawing up a plan related to our dynasty for decades or even a hundred years, and the minister thinks that Lord Lin is suspected of trespassing in this move, and this matter is extraordinary, and it is by no means a mere Guozi priest wine can be discussed, nor is it a Guozi priest wine can be conclusive...... "A minister's firepower was very fierce and fired at Lin Zhu, directly skipping whether to run a school, directly on how to run a school, look at this early upward posture, It seems that there is no need to discuss whether to run a school or not, who dares to say nothing? Don't you want to go to the court?

Yang Gai smiled, this firepower is too fierce, the piece of meat he threw out is too féi, this guy doesn't want to think about it, Lin Zhu is an honest man, if no one supports him, he is full of food and supports him to do such a big thing? Maybe it's really fame and fortune.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you have different opinions?" Yang Reform did not jump to conclusions easily, this is far from the point where he is on the field.

The emperor didn't say anything, the emperor's attitude towards this matter was very ambiguous, he didn't say yes, he didn't say no, then don't speak, it depends on the situation.

So, after a little waiting, someone answered.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this is inappropriate, and the wine of the prince is also Jiuqing, why can't you discuss this matter? What's more, Guozijian is a holy place for cultivating talents for the imperial court, so why can't you talk about education? In this matter, the minister thought that Lord Lin had done the right thing and discussed it properly, Lord Lin worked for the welfare of the people of the world and for the exhibition of sacred learning, which was a model for hundreds of officials, and we should compete to emulate Lord Lin...... "A person immediately came out to fight for Lin Zhu. ,

"Your Majesty, I think Lord Lin has done the right thing and done it reasonably......

"Your Majesty, the minister also thinks that Lord Lin's move is undoubtedly the pinnacle of sacred learning for a hundred years, no, for thousands of years, if you can really do what Lin Dan said, then the great harmony of the world that the sage said will appear in my Daming, this is the great luck of the world, the great luck of my Daming......"

Yang Reform smiled and said nothing, it seems that Lin Zhu's plan really attracted a group of people, otherwise, this is up, talking to him so much, this would be interesting.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Lord Lin's heart is good, for the people of the world, for the sake of holy learning, these should be, but the minister thinks that this matter is too important, and it is no longer appropriate for Lord Lin to organize and discuss this matter, Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this matter should be handed over to the cabinet ministers or courtiers to agree, in order to show the importance of this matter...... "The other minister is also not ambiguous, this kind of great merit, just like this, gave a four-grade Guozi priest wine in vain, obviously unwilling, so, It was proposed that the right to discuss this matter be handed over to the cabinet or the entire imperial court for discussion, and the credit would naturally be grabbed. This is another big féi difference after the disaster relief of 10 million taels, and it is even more "féi" than disaster relief.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this is reasonable, this matter is extraordinary, and it is no longer appropriate for Lord Lin to take the lead in drafting this matter, and it is no longer suitable to ......" There are also people who help.

Yang Reform is still smiling and silent, this is strange, things have not been seen yet, and the eight characters have not been skimmed, so they are in a hurry to grab the credit? If he didn't nod his head and didn't pay his own money, he couldn't start this matter, whoever wants to rob Lin Zhu of the credit is that he can't get along with himself, is this possible? Seeing that the courtiers fought so fiercely, it seems that this piece of féi meat, this fishing bait, was quite successful.

Yang Reform listened to the opinions of the ministers for a while, and saw that everything that should be said was said, so he raised his hand. There was immediately silence in the Taihe Gate.

“…… The saint has devoted his life to education and the spread of culture, I am quite admired, and I also support the cause of the saint, I think that Lin Zhu is very good to discuss this matter, it is good for me to be Ming, it is conducive to holy learning, and it is good for the people of the world, this is a good thing, I think that since this matter is Lin Zhu, then it is still Lin Zhu to continue, I believe that Lin Zhu can take the lead in discussing this matter, and he must have the people, the country, and the holy school in his heart, and he must also have a set of strategies in his heart, otherwise, There will be no discussion of this grand event that has never been seen in the past thousand years, nor will it discuss the grand event of the past 200 years of our Ming Dynasty. …… Hehe, what's more, there is only a shadow of this matter now, and it is only a matter of discussion, as for whether it is implemented or not, how to implement it, it is still a matter of the future......" Yang Gai said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, I beg your Majesty to support this grand event, Your Majesty, this is a grand event unprecedented in a thousand years!" An official was straightforward and immediately said what could be said secretly but could not be said on the surface.

Yang reformed. The officials are also the same, which is too straightforward. It is true that the emperor is rich, but it is the emperor's extra money, not a "serious" income, this matter, it depends on whether the emperor is willing or not, and he has to beg the emperor to force the emperor to take silver like this, this matter must be smashed!

"Your Majesty, the minister implores Your Majesty to support this grand event...... "When an official saw that this matter had been broken, he simply asked the emperor to pay for the silver.

Yang reformed, this is not in line with his own design, I didn't expect that these officials are so thick-skinned, and they will directly use their own internal money.

"Okay! Let's take out all the gold and silver that the household department has paid to me every year to support this matter. "Yang Reform also let go of his hatred, and simply took out all the emperor's legal income to support this matter, and see what you do. Otherwise, I will have a reputation for not supporting running a school.

Ministers, look at me, I look at you, this matter is really too urgent, the emperor soared, the emperor's annual "legal and reasonable" income, but it was those gold and silver, the emperor's concubines, eunuchs, and Jingying were counting on the silver to live, and the emperor donated it with a word, so those people drank the northwest wind? You have to find someone to work hard, this world, no, the capital is not big?

The official who had just spoken, speaking quickly for a moment, told the truth in his heart, and now he was close to regretting it. Above the court, there was silence for a while.

"Your Majesty, the ministers think it's inappropriate, they have always run schools, and the state and county governments have always paid for them, and the household departments and local governments take silver, where is there a reason to ask Your Majesty for silver? When you wait for all the gold and silver, what will Your Majesty eat and drink? Have you not abandoned your father? Does this still look like a courtier? Fu Shi Fenglai immediately came out to relieve the siege for the emperor. ,

"The minister is guilty, the minister is guilty, please punish Your Majesty." The outspoken minister just now immediately pleaded guilty. Although everyone knows that the emperor is counting on the emperor to pay for this matter, he also needs the emperor to pay willingly! If you don't come up like this, you will force the emperor to pay for the silver.

"Hehehe...... is there in the household?" Yang Reform didn't say anything to this guy, and asked the household department directly.

"The minister is here." Bi Ziyan immediately came out and replied.

"Since the money is returned to the household department and to the local government, then I ask you, how much money can the household department take out to run a school now?" Yang asked Gengai.

"Back to Your Majesty, this year, the household department has finally settled the arrears of previous years, and there are still tens of thousands of taels of silver left." Bi Ziyan replied, of course he didn't finish speaking, these tens of thousands of taels of silver still have to be saved.

Bi Ziyan's words were like a basin of cold water poured on everyone's heads, it turned out that the household department could get tens of thousands of taels of silver, and tens of thousands of taels of silver also wanted to make that plan? Joke.

"......, but if you move some, you may be able to move some silver next year, about four or five hundred thousand taels." Bi Ziyan replied again.

The fire that everyone was extinguished still had a little bit of half a million taels of silver, which was also a lot of silver. However, to realize Lin Zhu's plan, this is a fraction.

"The prince of the country, the priest of the wine Lin Zhu, can you do it?" Yang asked Gengai.

"The minister is here." Lin Zhu, who had been watching how others discussed him, immediately replied, just now, he had been observing the actions of the court, watching the emperor and the ministers play "hide and seek", which the emperor "ordered" to do himself, but the emperor now pretended not to know......

"I don't know where Lin Aiqing's plan has reached, but I want to ask, how much silver does it cost to realize the world harmony planned by Lin Aiqing, so that all children can read and write?" Yang asked Gengai.

"Back to Your Majesty, maybe tens of millions of taels a year is unknown......," Lin Zhu replied honestly.

Tens of millions of taels of silver? Although the courtiers were mentally prepared, they still exclaimed.

"Hehe, that's a lot of money!" Yang Gengai sighed.

“…… Back to Your Majesty, maybe you won't need so much silver, the minister has calculated, if you can get ten million taels of silver, you can also do this thing, although it is not a complete achievement, but it is also a grand event that has not been seen in thousands of years. Lin Zhu said again.

"In other words, at least 10 million taels of silver? Is this a little bit effective? Yang reformed.

"Back to Your Majesty, yes, but this matter is unprecedented, it is really huge, once it is implemented, it needs to be strengthened step by step, year by year, otherwise, it is very easy to have problems, so, in fact, in the first few years, there are millions of taels of silver, it is enough, after finding a suitable way, and then advancing year by year, at this time, more silver is needed." Lin Zhu said again.

The minimum is a few million taels of silver, and the hundreds of thousands of taels of silver vacated by the household department are really a fraction. Many ministers are very enthusiastic about this matter. He set his eyes on the Emperor again.
