Chapter 197: Deliberately
Wu Yingying and Liang Zuoqiu talked while walking, because there were few children in Lanzhou, the township school was temporarily taught by Liang Zuoqiu, and every day before sunset for the children, Liang Zuoqiu presided over the lecture, regardless of the military and civilian, they could learn from each other in the township school and discuss current affairs. In order to attract parents to send their children to the village school, in addition to free books, the Lanzhou government is responsible for providing a meaty meal for the children in school. In order to attract people of insight from Lanzhou to participate in the lecture with confidence, Wu Yingying carved the handwritten "The speaker of the township school is not guilty" and stood in front of the township school. The implication is that there can be no taboos in discussing current affairs in the township school, and there is no arbitrary discussion outside. Regarded as following the precedent of the Spring and Autumn Period, Wu Yingying discounted Liang Zuoqiu's "innocence of the speaker", after all, he knew very well the power of the propaganda offensive.
As a compromise, Wu Yingying proposed that Liang Zuoqiu could host a journal to collect the opinions of people in the township school and make it public, and the cost of running the journal would be sponsored by the Lanzhou government. There is a cloud in "Spring and Autumn Zuo Biography": "There is virtue in the Tai, followed by meritorious service, and then there is speech." Lasting for a long time is said to be three immortal. Liang Zuoqiu was immediately very interested in this, and he agreed to the establishment of the academic journal, and said that he would invite a few literary friends from Fengzhou to come over. Wu Yingying said with a smile: "Mr. Zuoqiu, Wu Lanzhou takes a scribe, when Mr. follows the example, the school shoots the second art of shooting, if Mr. Wenyou can't pass, you can't get it." "He has already mentioned to Liang Zuoqiu that this township school teaches and learns, with an annual salary of 80 runs, which is equivalent to the centurion, and after the scale and influence are gradually expanded in the future, and then gradually improved according to the situation, Liang Zuoqiu as the first township school, with an annual salary of 200 runs, which is equivalent to the centurion.
Liang Zuoqiu said with a smile: "It's okay, the scribe of Wufengzhou, those who have no martial arts must be the children of the big clan who are guarding the generals, and they don't need to live on Yulu." Those who are not wealthy need to practice martial arts to defend themselves, and only deliberately practice for more than a month, and it is not a problem to meet the standards set by Lord Wu. Wu Yingying didn't feel it. What he didn't expect was that the poor scholars of this era may not have high talents, but their perseverance and perseverance are extremely strong, otherwise how can they keep their wives and children eating porridge, and no one knows about the torment of the cold window for ten years. has perseverance and perseverance, and because the environment is forced to practice martial arts to defend himself, natural archery skills are far superior to others. After all, compared with other martial arts, this archery art is the way of ancient gentlemen, and it is not insulting to practice it. Listening to Liang Zuoqiu's mention, there are still many scholars in Fengzhou who practice swords, but the sword is not as good as the sword in the battle array, and it is useless in the country, and no matter how good the swordsmanship is, it cannot be used as a standard for taking scholars.
The more the two talked, the more they surrendered, Wu Yingying suddenly remembered something, and said: "Mr. Zuoqiu, if Wu Lanzhou is not a scholar, it is a cute household, and the rest are businessmen." If Mr. Toyosu Xueyou doesn't know how to shoot the second art, although he is rich, I'm afraid he can only be a cute household. Fortunately, both the gentleman and the scribes who passed the examination have served as teachers, and they can take refuge under your rule. He knew that this matter might anger Liang Zuoqiu, but if he didn't say it in advance, he was afraid that he would break the rules of Lanzhou, and the gains would outweigh the losses in the future.
Liang Zuoqiu's face really changed greatly, and he looked at Wu Yingying and said angrily: "My literary friend is here to preach and teach, you don't treat you as a guest, why do you want to humiliate Sven so much?"
Wu Yingying sighed: "I have to do it as a last resort." Seeing that Liang Zuoqiu was still angry, he smiled bitterly and continued: "Lanzhou respects martial artists, but it conforms to the way of heaven. The way of heaven is constant, not for Yao, not for death. Pointing to the mountains in the distance, Wu Yingying said to Liang Zuoqiu: "Behind these mountains, in the desert Gobi, countless barbarian warriors have attacked and killed day and night, and there are many heroes. One day, there will be a great man among the Hu people, who will unify the north and south of the desert, control hundreds of thousands, all of them are tigers and wolves, and then go south to herd horses in the Central Plains, with bows and arrows as leather whips, and Han people as cattle and sheep, and I will not be a Chinese caste. If I don't prepare early, how can I deserve it?"
Seeing the puzzled look on Zuoqiu's face, he didn't quite understand why he suddenly made such an alarmist statement. Wu Yingying sighed and said in a deep voice: "Martial arts, the pillar stone of the country." This is the way of heaven today. Han Feizi said, in ancient times, it was about morality, the Middle Ages was about wisdom, and today it is about strength, which is what he said. In today's world, Yanwu Xiuwen is going against the sky, and he can not die. If I don't respect the martial arts in the Central Plains, the Quartet Di Yi will do the opposite, one will eliminate the other, and after a hundred years, the Chinese martial arts will decline, and Di Yi will become stronger and stronger, and the situation will be unimaginable. He said this because he was inspired by the national policy of the Central Plains Imperial Court at this time, and Liang Zuoqiu also had a lot of emotion, and said unconsciously: "My lord has the idea of worrying about the country, but why is he stubborn about humiliating the scribes?"
Wu Yingying saw that his face was gentle, and said in a deep voice: "Dare to ask what is benevolence? Charity means that there is a difference in love. He saw that Liang Zuoqiu was listening, so he continued, "If an ordinary literati is not proficient in the second art, they can all go sideways to the forest of national warriors, and ask how to reflect the respected status of the martial arts." The soldiers are on the battlefield in blood, but in the end, they are on an equal footing with the literati and artists who are sitting in the back, how can they not feel unjust?"
Liang Zuoqiu said: "My lord has made strong arguments, and both civil and military have always been the qualifications for promotion, and I have not seen that the martial artists have any grievances. ”
Wu Yingying said: "The spirit of the Central Plains Yanwu Xiuwen is becoming more and more profound, and the influence is great. If Wu Lanzhou adheres to the middle way, it will inevitably be affected by it, and in the end it is still the situation of Wenchang's military decline, and the so-called overcorrection is this meaning. Scribes only had to practice archery diligently, and it was not difficult for them to attain the status of scholars. He said this because he felt it, and the Western Xia in history also attached great importance to martial artists, but later, it gradually revealed that literature was better than martial arts, perhaps literati were better at internal fighting. Therefore, Wu Yingying especially listed the second art of archery as a necessary condition for literati to obtain the status of scholars, even if one day the literati are in power, the fierce and martial spirit on the body is still there, and the barbarians from all directions still can't take advantage of it. Seeing that Liang Zuoqiu was thoughtful and seemed to accept his explanation, Wu Yingying sighed: "Those who know me say that I am worried, and those who don't know me say what I want." It is related to the luck of China for a hundred years, and the matter of Sven sweeping the floor, please bear with me. "Now is the late stage of the Cold Weapon Era, the level of social development determines the reality of the martial arts as the country, and those who forcibly do not follow this heavenly way can only be eliminated by other races. The calamitous Chinese civilization needs tigers and wolves to maneuver for hundreds of years.
Wu Yingying and Liang Zuoqiu were talking about speculation, and suddenly Chase came over with a kind eyebrow and kind eye, Wu Yingying recognized this person as a monk who opened the altar in Lanzhou, and the law name was followed, and he was a monk who returned from Tianzhu, carrying Buddha relics pagoda, Bodhi leaves, peacock tail whisk and other things as evidence, and there were still many monks who returned with the follower, but others were preaching scriptures in Bianliang, only this follower heard that Lanzhou could not help but Mani, Zoroastrianism, Nestorianism, and even the Western Regions and Buddhists were killed in a river of blood*** Teachings can have their own missionaries, so they made a great vow and came to Lanzhou alone to promote Buddhism. Who knows that Lanzhou, both military and civilian, is busy with various affairs, and under the guidance of various government systems, it is extremely utilitarian, and there are few believers. In the past few months, there are not many people who believe in the Buddha, but Zoroastrianism, which has a deep foundation among the Hu people, is flourishing.
