Wu Yingying and Huang Wen greeted each other repeatedly, and the sergeants and civilians in the field stopped and continued to compete happily. At this moment, a private household was greatly affected by the atmosphere in the field, and suddenly wanted to pour out the block that had been suffocated in his heart for a long time to the lord of Lanzhou, so he tried to go up to meet Wu Yingying from the side of the Dianjiangtai. He was stopped by the guards in the audience, so he shouted loudly: "I am Liangzuoqiu, Fengzhou, and I have a big event to meet the regimental training envoy!" This scholar was quite loud, and for a while, everyone on the stage paid attention to him, and Wu Yingying asked the guards to bring him up for questioning.

After the guards brought Liang Zuoqiu up, there was Chase to interrogate the situation, this person was a Fengzhou scholar, who was taken away by the party a few years ago, and was exchanged back to Lanzhou.

Wu Yingying asked in a deep voice: "Liang Zuoqiu, you want to see me, what is the matter?"

Liang Zuoqiu dusted off his clothes, bowed down and said: "Lord Wu, I look at Lanzhou, the whole country is united, the army and the people are rising, and there are big things to do, but there is one point, it is really against common sense. I would like to advise you. He looked at Wu Yingying with burning eyes, unceremoniously and awe-inspiring. The captains and sergeants who watched from the sidelines were all secretly saying in their hearts, what a bold scholar.

"Tell me. ”

As the saying goes, scholars are the treasure of the country, and Confucianism is the treasure of the table. Zuoqiu is not talented, Kaibao six years into the scholar and the first, went to the official and returned to his hometown, was plundered by thieves, and fell here. He didn't want to be looked down upon by Wu Yingying and others, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he explained his identity. As soon as these words came out, everyone on the stage was shocked. Since the Tang Dynasty, although the Jinshi are not as rich and noble as the Song Dynasty, they have established an extremely difficult image in the minds of ordinary people, especially before the Song Taizong did not expand the recruitment, the scholars from all over the country gathered in the capital, and a branch of Jinshi is usually only a dozen people, a few people, and no more than twenty or thirty people. To be able to pass the Jinshi, all of them are Haoshou poor and have a bright brain, this Liang Zuoqiu looks like he is only thirty, but he didn't think that he was a Jinshi.

"Since Kaibao has been a scholar for six years, why don't you become an official of the Great Song Dynasty?" Wu Yingying asked with some surprise, the treatment of civil servants in the Song Dynasty was high salaries and greed, as long as you did not rebel, your life was absolutely guaranteed. Although most of the Jinshi in the Taizu period only did some minor officials, unlike after Taizong, the new branch Jinshi was a high-grade member all of a sudden, and this Liang Zuoqiu abandoned the official and returned to the inside, which is too weird.

Liang Zuoqiu smiled bitterly: "He treats me as a countryman, and he should repay him as a countryman." The meaning of his words is not finished, Kaibao six years of science field fraud case, the scholar who has not been in the jinshi beat the drum to sue the royal court, Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin personally opened the palace test precedent, admitted 26 jinshi. This Liang Zuoqiu is the Jinshi who was not admitted by the examiner who was cheated by favoritism before, and was admitted by Taizu himself after the palace examination, and got a petty official of the Ministry of Rites.

Two years later, Zhao Guangyi killed his brother and seized the throne, although there was Zhao Pujinkui's alliance to cover up, these officials of the Ministry of Rites were understandable, because the emperor's succession to the throne was not a whim, who has hope, who has no hope, most of them can be seen from some subtle arrangements in the ritual system. For Liang Zuoqiu, who is familiar with the history of the scriptures and works in the Ministry of Rites, no matter how Zhao Guangyi hides it, the person who originally inherited the throne should not be Zhao Guangyi, which is a very clear thing. Liang cultivated and read the heirloom in Fengzhou, with loyalty and righteousness, this Liang Zuoqiu is more stubborn, since Zhao Guangyi is not right, he feels that if he continues to eat the court with shame, he will be responsible for the grace of Taizu's knowledge, so he abandoned the official and returned to the country, and not long after, he was taken captive by the party members. Wu Yingying saw that he just smiled bitterly, there must be something unspeakable, since people didn't want to say it, he no longer asked why Liang Zuoqiu abandoned the official and didn't do it, but only said in a deep voice: "Dare to ask Mr. Liang what to teach me?" waved his hand and asked the servant woman to bring a stool to Liang Zuoqiu.

After Liang Zuoqiu sat down unceremoniously, he arched his hand and said: "Lord Wu, the land of Lanzhou is narrow and the people are outnumbered, and it is in the land of four wars. However, we must not abandon the basics, and the reason why China is China is not in force but in culture. Nowadays, although there are tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Lanzhou, there is no private school for rural learning, although there are Confucian scholars and literati, they stoop to the cute household and support the martial arts. In the long run, tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Lanzhou will only know that there is military law, but not ethics. Strength is to see, and ignore etiquette. The difference between Diyi and Huaxia is not in blood, but in morality and etiquette, and cultural relics. The general is a hero of the world, and when Jiangnan was a minister, there were also articles spread all over the world, and he couldn't bear to see these tens of thousands of people, leaving China and entering Di Yihu? The general only rewarded and educated the people with punishment, but it was the law of the Qin period, don't you know that Qin Yi II died?"

He happened to say that the heart of the heroes of Zhongwu was sick, Lanzhou now has many Hu people, and the systems are very different from the Central Plains, and in the long run, I am afraid that the people of Lanzhou, like the sixteen states of Yanyun in Huhua, will not be able to see in the Central Plains. However, he also knew that Liang Zuoqiu said such a lot of alarmist words, and there must be a follow-up, so he arched his hand with a calm face: "Since Mr. is watching the fire, can there be a proper way?"

Liang Zuoqiu saw that he did not shirk and admitted the crisis contained in the current system of Lanzhou, and secretly admired this person's determination in his heart, and said: "I have three strategies, one of which is to open a township school, teach history books and writing, and spread my Chinese culture. The second is to respect the scribes, so that they can get rid of the humble status of the cute family and stand on their own. Third, do not sin people because of their words, but convince people with reason in everything, and do not look at them only by force. He was open-minded and unceremoniously looked at Wu Yingying.

It was the end of the five dynasties, except for Bianliang and Jinling, which had sprung up to be a Confucian scholar, all over the country were heavy on martial arts and light on literature, although Liang Zuoqiu was a Jinshi, these words really greatly angered Wu Yingying's left and right lieutenants and sergeants, and they all stared at him viciously, as long as Wu Yingying gave an order, he would drag this scholar who didn't know what to do.

"Sir, do you see that the people of Lanzhou, who are richer than the Central Plains Prefecture? Who is more majestic than the Central Plains? Who is more honest than the Central Plains?" Wu Yingying did not directly answer his words, but asked rhetorically.

Liang Zuoqiu's face was ugly, he didn't expect Wu Yingying to directly cross-examine his words, but he never said anything unintentional, nodded and said: "The people of Lanzhou are rich, compared to the Kaiyuan Tianbao period, the military is stronger than the forbidden army, and the officials are honest and honest, and I have never heard of any greed for ink." ”

Wu Yingying nodded slowly and said, "Mr. can speak impartially, and he is an upright person." So I asked my husband to hire ten teachers on his behalf, open a township school, teach my sergeants and the common people to read and write, know poetry and books, and pass on my Chinese culture. This township school matter, Mr. Lao will handle it with all his might. After saying that, he got up and bowed his hands.

Liang Zuoqiu heard that he offered three strategies, Wu Yingying only took one strategy, and the most important suggestion for the scholar to get rid of the cute household was ignored, he couldn't help but be anxious, and after avoiding Wu Yingying's salute, he said: "My lord is as good as a stream, why do you have to humiliate the scribe and make him bend to the martial arts?"

After Wu Yingying got up, Zhengse said: "Zhou Li has a memory, raising the son of the country to the Tao, it is the six arts of teaching, dare to ask which six arts?"

Liang Zuoqiu was stunned for a moment when he heard his question, and blurted out: "One is five rites, two is six music, three is five shots, four is five drivers, five is six books, and six is nine numbers." These words come from the "Zhou Li?Bao Shi", which is a classic passage that Confucian scholars must remember, illustrating the six skills that an ancient scholar must master.

Wu Yingying saw him enter, his face relaxed, and he said with a smile: "The way of happiness, since the Qin and Han dynasties, has long been lost, and it is a pity." The way of numbers involves the slim way of heaven, the poverty is difficult to understand, and there are few practitioners in the world. Virtue will not say more. Rites and books, Mr. Gui is a Jinshi, must be familiar with it. Archery, royal arts, try to ask today's scribes, how many people can?"

Liang Zuoqiu didn't think that he was even involved in the six arts of the gentleman of the pre-Qin, which means that the current scholars, since they can't reach the level of the pre-Qin, don't talk about any privileges.

"How can it be justified? He came up stubbornly, and he didn't care that Wu Yingying was the honor of Jiezhen, flicked his sleeves, and snorted angrily.

"Sir, don't blame, the sergeants spilled blood and cut off their heads for the country. Shiyun, Wufu, Gonghou Gancheng. To make its status respected, it is also in line with the way of heaven and human feelings. If a scribe does not learn the two arts of imperial archery and is unable to protect himself, how can he be called a national scholar?

Wu Yingying's words, if they fall into the ears of the Confucian scholars who have not been in the Central Plains for a long time, they will definitely quote scriptures and argue with him. But this Liang Zuoqiu was born in the border pass, grew up in troubled times, and was once captured and plundered by the Hu people, so he naturally knows the importance of this martial art. He pondered for a long time and asked, "There are specializations in the art industry, and the way of civil and military affairs is broad and profound, doesn't Lord Wu want the scribes to be as brave as the athletes under the adult?"
