"Are you going to leave tomorrow?" After reading the official document of the Intelligence Department, Hong Yun'er gently lifted the red pen and drew a few strokes on a booklet, she crossed out a name on the booklet with these few strokes, and the booklet was all the names that had been crossed out, and the red marks left by the red pen on the names were so shocking.

Xiao Yungui didn't look up, he was looking down at the official document, and after hearing Hong Yun'er's words, he just hummed softly.

Hong Yun'er closed the booklet and sighed lightly: "I suddenly think that we are too cold-blooded and despicable? These names represent the rise and fall of a big family, I don't know how many people will change the fate of their lives because of this. ”

Xiao Yungui raised his head at this time, smiled faintly and said, "Will there be a bloodless change?" Our country is already terminally ill, how can it be cured without strong medicine? With strong medicine, it will naturally bleed. Since ancient times, those who want the same will win, I want the military and the people of our province to work in one direction, at this time I want order and a voice, too much noise will be bad. ”

Hong Yun'er was silent for a while: "Ah Gui, did you ever think that there would be a day when a word would determine life and death? ”

Xiao Yungui replied very simply: "No, but since fate has arranged for us to be like this, I will try my best to do a good job." ”

Hong Yun'er lowered her head and sighed softly: "It turns out that we have changed, and unconsciously, we have changed from just wanting to save our lives to condemning life and death." ”

Xiao Yungui asked strangely, "Why are you so sentimental tonight?" At that time, when we asked Bai Zetang and the Intelligence Department to get rid of these people, you were also very much in favor of it. ”

Hong Yun'er was silent for a while, and then said: "Don't talk about this, you are going to Shanghai tomorrow, but the first opening of our West Hall is coming, so you can't stay for a few more days?" ”

Xiao Yungui stood up and paced a few steps: "In a few days, the reorganization of the first batch of veterans will begin. These veterans have all come from Changsha with us, and I am going to stabilize the morale of the army. Speaking of this, he paused and said: "This opening is specially opened by our Xiwang Mansion to select Sufu officials, unlike Tianjing, where the King of Heaven and the King of the East must appoint the champion, and Zuo Xiang and you are on the line." ”

Hong Yun'er smiled and said: "I have participated in too many political affairs, and there are rumors of Si Chen outside, aren't you, the king of the West, afraid of being made fun of by others and relying on your wife?" ”

Xiao Yungui laughed dryly and said, "If you don't use someone as easy to use, my brain will be caught by the door." Saying that, he walked to Hong Yun'er's side, gently pulled Hong Yun'er's jade hand and said: "The matter of education and talent will have to worry a lot about the lady, and you don't have to pay attention to the gossip that is old-fashioned." Which one of the people in the West Mansion doesn't treat you as half a West King? ”

It was already the height of summer, Hong Yun'er was wearing a silk women's Hanfu curved deep coat, the silk was thin and soft, the neckline was very low, Xiao Yungui stood beside Hong Yun'er. With his high momentum, he stared fiercely at the white undershirt exposed by Hong Yun'er's neckline.

Hong Yun'er didn't notice that the person next to her was changing towards a pervert, and her jade hand gently touched Xiao Yungui's big hand. He whispered, "Don't worry." Tomorrow I will inspect several new schools in Suzhou, and scholars from all over the country are coming to take the exam, and I will arrange haode...... You, what are you doing with your hands? ”

Xiao Yungui's big hand was very dishonest and probed into the undershirt of Hong Yun'er's chest along the slightly lower neckline of the curved deep clothes, Xiao Yungui found that since he changed into Hanfu, Hong Yuner's delicate figure could cause him a fatal Hanfu temptation. It's like watching those blockbusters in kimonos in later generations.

was caressed by the hot big hand, Hong Yun'er only felt that half of her body was soft, and slowly leaned on the familiar and strong body, but her slightly coquettish voice was so tempting: "Carry me in." ”

The sweltering heat of summer gives a reason to go crazy. Xiao Yungui's trip to Shanghai this time will be a few months, and the couple seized the time before this short separation, enjoying the joy of life like crazy, and the perfect combination of spirit and desire.

Early the next morning, Hong Yuner said goodbye to Xiao Yungui by the dock, turned to look at the horses brought by the female guards, her pretty face couldn't help but blush, last night was too crazy, it was not very comfortable to ride a horse by herself, and then ordered the female soldiers to find a sedan chair, and after sitting in the sedan chair, Hong Yuner took dozens of guards to the first primary school of the Suzhou government.

Suzhou Government-run No. 1 Primary School is located next to Suzhou Confucian Temple, Suzhou Mansion School Wei'an, east of Wolong Street, west of East Street, south of Xinshi Road, north of Shuyuan Lane, covering an area of about 100,000 square meters, of which the school covers an area of about 60,000 square meters, and the Confucian Temple covers an area of about 40,000 square meters. In terms of floor area, it is the second largest Confucian temple in the country after Qufu Confucius Temple at this time.

Suzhou government-run first primary school is a new school opened in the school of the house, after the conquest of Suzhou last year, the west hall was instructed by Xiao Yungui, by the Ministry of Rites and Suzhou County Shou Xu Naizhao together here to build a new primary school. Because of the war, the students in the Confucian Temple School returned to their hometowns, and those who fled, and only less than 100 students remained in the school.

These students had made up their minds to live and die with the Temple of Literature, because they listened to the propaganda of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the Taiping army forbade the destruction of Confucianism, and the Confucian Temple would definitely be burned after the city was destroyed. But to the surprise of these students, the Taiping army did not come to destroy the Confucian Temple after breaking the city. When a group of powerless students stood guard at the gate of the Temple of Literature with sticks, a pair of Taiping soldiers passing by did not look at them.

At that time, there was still a plague in the city, and the Taiping army sent medical officers they called life-saving medical officers to treat the students, and told them to wash their hands before and after eating, not to eat raw and cold things, and to drink boiled water.

After guarding the gate of the Confucian Temple for more than ten days, the students finally couldn't support it, and then under the call of Xu Naizhao, the governor of the Taiping Army, these students finally put down their sticks and continued to study.

Later, Lord Xu Naizhao and the officials of the Taiping Army took over the Confucian Temple, and they invited back the mountain chief of the Confucian Temple and Mr. Teaching, so that the students could continue to study and do learning. However, the Taiping army honestly and unceremoniously divided the Fuxue into two, and more than 150 of the more than 200 houses in the Fuxue were divided by the Taiping army and built a high wall in the courtyard.

The students were furious, believing that the Taiping army was trying to divert the house for other purposes, so they took up sticks again. It's a pity that their struggle didn't last until dark, because Master Xu Naizhao hung up the words "Suzhou Government-run No. 1 Primary School" in his own handwriting at the entrance of the newly opened Fuxue.

After Xu Naizhao's explanation. The students understood that the Taiping Army was going to open a new school. Since it is still a school and an institution, it is not good for the students to continue to make trouble with insults, not to mention the new school presided over by Lord Xu Naizhao himself? So the students went back again.

But the students are curious about what is taught at the elementary school next door. They set up a long ladder over the wall of the courtyard to peek out from the division commander, which was undignified and of course had to be carried out secretly.

The school on the other side of the courtyard wall is full of children, the oldest is only eleven or twelve years old, and in addition to classrooms, examination halls and traditional school buildings, new playgrounds and libraries have been added to the primary school. Every morning, afternoon, and dusk, those elementary school students would run and do exercises on the playground. I heard that this is the morning exercise and physical education class specially joined by the pseudo-king of the West. He said that reading is not only to study, but also to exercise well, and to say that the body is the capital of studying to serve the country.

There are many subjects in the primary school, there are sinology, and what I learn is a subset of classics and history, but I heard that it is Sinology before the Ming Dynasty. There are also arithmetic, gewu, nature, foreign literature, and so on. The most despised by the students are the other subjects, arithmetic and foreign language next door to invite some Chinese comprador professors of foreign firms. Gewu and nature invite a foreigner professor.

The students used to scold. A large cloth strip was once erected on the courtyard wall: "Shame on being with the barbarian learning". And the next door also replied: "Shame on being with the frog at the bottom of the well". So the two sides began a long period of silent scolding, from the initial sarcasm and invective, to later began to debate and ask questions to each other.

After months of fierce battles, the students gradually became overwhelmed, because the questions they asked about the subset of scripture and history were easily answered by the other party, and the other party substituted the questions. I can't answer here.

And the way of communicating with each other has also changed from the original strip of cloth to two huge wooden boards, on which are eye-catching big-character posters, on which there are questions for each other and answers to each other.

And what makes the students unhappy is that the night next door does not stop. The Taiping Army set up a night school next door, a crash course in literacy, a crash course in skills, and a tutoring class for officials. I heard that the crash course was actually taught by ninth-rate craftsmen, from masons to carpenters, from blacksmiths to masons and craftsmen. Moreover, according to the Taiping Army's unique seven-day week, which class was divided into 135, and 246 was changed. In short, the night next door is so noisy that the students can't concentrate on reading at night, only the official training class is slightly better at the beginning of the class, these people are always officials, and they know what it means to meditate.

Hong Yun'er got off the sedan chair and walked into the gate of the primary school, and the principal of the primary school, Wang Jingde, came to greet her with several teachers. This Wang Jingde was originally a teacher, and later when Shanghai opened a port, he started a comprador in a foreign bank in order to make a living. After Shanghai was captured by the Taiping army, the Taiping army hired teachers everywhere, and Wang Jingde quit his errand to teach in Suzhou, but he was actually reluctant to work under the foreigners. King Xi admired him for his knowledge of the West, and he was not pedantic, and his knowledge was good, so he became the first principal of this first elementary school.

Wang Jingde has never seen such a "thief" who cares about education, Xiwang's investment in primary school can be described as generous, basically what you want to give, and some even Xiwang you didn't expect to give. Since the completion of the primary school, Xiwang and Xiwangniang have taken time to inspect several times every month, and Xiwangniang has also compiled new teaching materials.

"Principal Wang doesn't need to be polite, what questions did you ask next door today?" Hong Yun'er interrupted Wang Jingde's salute with a smile, and Wang Jingde hurriedly replied: "Today's question is about natural science, and the question is about how the changes of the four seasons come about. ”

Hong Yun'er smiled and said, "This question is good, they can't answer it." ”

Wang Jingde said: "That is, there are a few more students next door who have come to audit recently, and it can be seen that the students next door still have an inquiring heart. ”

Hong Yun'er hummed, only raised her legs and walked a few steps, suddenly felt dizzy, the breath in her chest was not smooth, and a wave of nausea rushed to her heart, followed by a softness under her feet, and fainted...... (To be continued......)
