Chapter 267: The Beginning and End of Official Learning

After Kangxi finished saying this, he suddenly said to Yun Yao: "Concubine Ai, do you remember what Concubine Ai said to me a while ago about establishing an official school?" ”

Yun Yao was stunned when she heard this, as if she hadn't thought of it.

And Kangxi saw Yun Yao's performance, thinking that Yun Yao had forgotten, so he reminded: "That day, I told Concubine Ai about Ling Tai's entrance examination, and Concubine Ai mentioned this. ”

Yun Yao suddenly realized, and then asked: "What the emperor said is that, the concubine just said it casually, how can the emperor remember?" ”

Kangxi smiled when he heard this: "Concubine Ai said casually, but it solved my big problem!" ”

Kangxi's words really made Yun Yao a little confused this time, at that time she said this to Kangxi just to test it, Kangxi's tolerance for her meddling in government affairs, and later events also showed that Kangxi was not wary of her, and Yun Yao was quite happy about it. But Yun Yao didn't think that Kangxi would really agree with this suggestion.

Kangxi saw that Yun Yao's expression really didn't know anything, and he breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, and then said to Yun Yao: "Concubine Ai doesn't know, I was worried about what the Manchus would do after not fighting, what Concubine Ai said that day gave me a reminder that I can also establish an official school specially set up for the Manchus."

After all, most of the people in Guozijian are Han Chinese, and they have never paid much attention to the education of the Manchus, and the Manchus have no yearning for reading.

And the curriculum of this official school is the same as that of Guozijian, I don't believe it, we Manchus are worse than Han people in learning! By the time the imperial examination comes, the results of the full people will not improve at all? ”

Yun Yao always felt that something was wrong when she heard this, and Kangxi's idea seemed to be much worse than what she thought in her heart. However, Yun Yao didn't dare to say more, so as to disgust Kangxi.

And Kangxi talked endlessly, but he also noticed the hesitation on Yun Yao's face, so he asked with some curiosity: "What does Concubine Ai want to say?" ”

Yun Yao said hesitantly: "Please forgive the emperor for the offense of the concubines, the concubines of the Guozijian course have also heard of it, after all, we Manchu people grew up on horseback, and we don't know much about Sinology, so it is inevitable that we will also have contempt, if it is only for the imperial examination, is there something to put the cart before the horse!" At that time, the students are not dedicated to learning, wouldn't it go against the emperor's original intention? ”

Yun Yao saw that Kangxi's expression did not change, so she continued: "When the concubine was at home, I heard that most of Ling Tai's studies in the Guozijian learned the Four Books and the Five Classics and the like, most of these Ling Tai have learned, and in the Guozijian it is just a mess, Ling Tai has greatly reduced the time in the Guozijian a few years ago, and went home to learn riding and archery, Manchurian and Mongolian languages, etc., and also has to deal with some officialdom with Ama and his uncle to increase his knowledge. ”

After Kangxi listened to Yun Yao's words, he also thought to himself. For a moment, the room fell into a quiet atmosphere.

Kangxi thought for a long time before he said: "What Concubine Ai said is also reasonable, if it is unrealistic to let the Manchurian children all sit in the study all day long to learn from the Han people." ”

Even Yun Yao's family, which is similar to the composition of a scholarly family, is not very concerned about Guozijian's curriculum, so there is no need to think about it at all, there are still many Manchu people who don't know Chinese characters, and they are proud of it, if these people know that Kangxi has set up such an official school, then they will not have to make a fuss at that time?

Yun Yao saw Kangxi's meditative appearance, rolled her eyes, worried that Kangxi would burn herself if she wanted to go down, so she hurriedly threw the pot on someone else's head.

"Your Majesty, you might as well discuss this matter in the court, the important ministers of the court always know more than the concubine, a harem woman, and what the concubine said just now is not necessarily right, you ask the concubine is to ask for fish!"

When Kangxi heard this, his brows relaxed, and he said with a smile: "What Concubine Ai said is that I should indeed ask the important ministers in the court, but Concubine Ai's words are not useless to me, and Concubine Ai does not have to be presumptuous." ”

Yun Yao didn't answer when she saw this, this kind of thing is a lot of taboos for Yun Yao's concubine, and Yun Yao didn't want to shatter the image she had built up in Kangxi's heart, so she could only keep silent.

After Kangxi said these troubles, he didn't say these things to Yun Yao again, but talked to Yun Yao about common things, and didn't mention the previous things again.

————————————————

The situation in the court was unexpected by Kangxi, originally after Kangxi and Tu Hai discussed this official school, Tu Hai and Kangxi were a little worried, worried that the resistance in the court was too great, and this official school could not be run.

Tu Hai is also very dedicated, not only because this proposal was put forward by Yun Yao, but also because Tu Hai also saw the benefits from it, for the Manchus, because of the small number of people, the Manchu people have always been afraid of how to control the court, even if Tu Hai is very close to the Han Chen, it can't change the fact that Tu Hai is Manchu.

If the official school is established according to Yun Yao's ideas, Tu Hai will find that many people in this official school will definitely enter the court in the future and occupy a high position, whether it is connections or other things, the things that this official school will bring to the students will never be less.

If it weren't for Ling Tai who had already prepared for the imperial examination, Tu Hai would have been eager to let Ling Tai go in for some training, but Tu Hai thought of his two grandsons, the two of them have no achievements at present, just working as errands in the military camp, and when Tu Hai was ready to establish the official school, he stuffed the two brothers Ma Lishan and Marsai into the official school, presumably they could also learn a lot.

What Kangxi and Tuhai didn't expect was that most of the courtiers in the court were very supportive of this suggestion, while the Hanchen felt that it was none of their business and didn't intervene at all.

Even Prince An said that he would establish a sect, modeled after the official school, and let the clan centralize management and study.

Kangxi didn't expect this, and hurriedly stopped the court discussion. He summoned Tuhai again to ask for details.

Tu Hai could only smile bitterly at this: "Emperor Qiqi, the minions didn't expect that there would be a current situation, this is not promoted by the minions." ”

Kangxi was a little dissatisfied when he heard this, and asked: "Then why are the courtiers so active, even the clan is eager to try, and the situation is not clear, how dare I do it?" ”

Tu Hai smiled when he heard this: "The emperor is too worried, according to the slaves, the courtiers and clans will be wrong about what you mean, thinking that this official school is used to let the Manchurian children enter the officialdom, and the courtiers will naturally respond enthusiastically." As for the clan, it is estimated that Prince An is worried about his sons, so many sons are estimated to have no good positions except for the prince who can inherit his position, if he runs a sect, the emperor may take a fancy to that clan, and it is not impossible to make contributions like Prince An in the future. ”

When Kangxi heard this, he suddenly realized, and in an instant he thought of the many benefits of establishing a sect and an official school, and he couldn't help but be very excited. Then he said: "It seems that I have established official schools and sectarian schools for all benefits and no harms?" ”

Tu Hai reminded when he heard this: "Your Majesty, although there are many benefits, you must hold the matter of sectarianism and official learning in your hands thoroughly, otherwise it will be useless if you are used by others!" ”

When Kangxi heard this, his expression was solemn, and he also thought of this possibility, so he said: "What Aiqing reminds is that if the people who come out of the sect and the official school cannot be used by me, it will be a disaster!" ”

No need to remind Tu Hai again, Kangxi thought about the pros and cons of official learning, after thinking about it, Kangxi said to Tu Hai: "I am determined to establish an official school sect, now I have only been in power for many years, there are not many people available in my hands, the children of Manchuria and the clan are people who can be trusted, I believe that I can select a lot of talents from them!" ”

Tu Hai said with great satisfaction: "The emperor is thinking very far-reaching, just to teach the master and teacher of the students, who is the emperor going to choose?" ”

Kangxi pondered for a while before saying: "The person who teaches the students can be drawn from the Hanlin Academy, and the Hanchen will not interfere in these things, but the person in charge must be someone I trust, if it weren't for Aiqing, you are very busy, I will let you take the position!" Why don't you recommend it to me? ”

Tu Hai pondered for a moment when he heard this, and then said: "The slave only thinks of one person, but he can't hold down the formation with his identity. ”

Kangxi asked with some interest: "I don't know who Aiqing is talking about?" ”

Tu Hai replied: "On the Holy Age, the person recommended by the slave is the son of Fan Wencheng, Fan Chengmo!" ”

Kangxi didn't know much about Fan Chengmo, so he looked at Tuhai and asked, "How is he educated?" ”

Tu Hai replied: "Your Majesty, Fan Chengmo's knowledge is not bad, after all, he is also a family scholar!" ”

Kangxi nodded when he heard this, and then said: "That's the case, let's make him the deputy of the official school over there!" Aiqing, you are nominally in charge of the affairs of the official school, and give Fan Chengmo a pressure formation! ”

When Tuhai heard this, he didn't shirk it, and thanked him directly!

But after a while, Tuhai said to Kangxi again: "Your Majesty, the slave has a request, I don't know if to talk about it?" ”

Kangxi asked with interest: "What difficulties does Aiqing have?" Say it all! ”

Tu Hai said with a wry smile: "Emperor Qiqi, the slave only has two grandsons, but the parents of the two of them are unfair, and his mother is very dislike and harsh to his young son, so that the two grandsons of the slave get along like enemies.

The slave can only find a way to mediate from it, but the two of them are at home, and they are easily influenced by their mother, and the slave's wife loves her grandson, so the slave can only ask the emperor to let the two grandsons of the slave enter the official school, so as to get rid of the influence of the family and facilitate the slave to teach the two of them! ”

Kangxi was very sympathetic to Tuhai's experience, and couldn't help but sigh, "Aiqing's family is unfortunate!" Suddenly remembered something and asked, "Which family is the daughter-in-law of love?" Why is it so provocative, not a good wife! ”

Tu Hai didn't know what to say when he heard it, and he was a little hesitant.

Kangxi was a little curious when he saw it, so he said: "What's so bad about this, Aiqing quickly say which family your daughter-in-law is, I will never choose his daughter in the future!" ”

When Tu Hai heard Kangxi say this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, seeing that Kangxi's eyes were shining with a thick sense of gossip when he looked at him, Tu Hai simply didn't save face for Kangxi, and said directly: "Your Majesty, the daughter-in-law of the slave is surnamed Hesheri!" ”

At this time, Kangxi felt a little embarrassed, at this time, Kangxi was only glad that he didn't drink tea in his mouth, otherwise he would have squirted it out in one gulp.

Kangxi said with some concern: "I have written down Aiqing's matter, and after the official school starts, Aiqing will send her two grandsons over." ”

After finishing speaking, Kangxi sent Tu Hai out, and Tu Hai also knew about it and didn't look at Kangxi's jokes anymore.
