Chapter 827: The Prince's Education Problem

The contract was completed, Duanmujian also explored enough in Shuzhong, so he accelerated his return to the capital, after which Luo Zhaoyuan carefully returned to Shuzhong with his soldiers and horses and the officials and soldiers of Shannan Dongdao, and this land between Gyeonggi Province and Qianzhong Province became the territory of the Jia Dynasty.

Accepting Shannan Dongdao is both good and troublesome for the Jia Dynasty, the advantage is that it has harvested such a vast land and millions of people with a lot of effort, and the disadvantage is that it has put a big burden on the finances of the Jia Dynasty.

In order to show the importance of the imperial court to Shannan Dongdao, Li You transferred Zheng Feihuang from Huainan Province to take charge of Shannan Dongdao, and sent Zhou Bofu as a commander to support Zheng Feihuang, so that he could solve the problem of land annexation and many bandits here as soon as possible.

After Zhou Bofu arrived in Shannan Dongdao, he did not directly start to strangle those bandits, but posted a notice, stating that if they had not killed the people, it was just that the rebels who had to rise up to rebel because they couldn't survive, as long as they were willing to go down the mountain and surrender to the Jiazhou army, they would not be blamed for the past; As for those bandits who do evil, they only punish the evil, and they never ask, if someone can take the head of the bandit leader down the mountain, they will also be rewarded by the Jiazhou Army.

After posting this notice, Zhou Bofu led the army to choose a suitable place to camp and train in Shannan East Road, and at the same time led the staff team and elite soldiers to constantly familiarize themselves with the terrain here, and inquired about the bandit strongholds in Shannan East Road, and by the way, he also sent many people into Shuzhong to investigate the situation in Qianzhong Road, Shannan West Road and Jiannan Road.

In addition, with the support of his armed force, Zheng Feihuang was also able to show his strength in Shannan Dongdao, re-measure the land, and clear the hidden fields, during which it was not without the local gentry who relied on themselves to be the head snake and constantly obstructed the work of cleaning up the fields, but under the thunderous blow of Zhou Bofu, these local tyrants and inferior gentry were uprooted one after another, and countless lonely and helpless people got their own land, and these people's family property also became Zhou Bofu's military expenses and Zheng Fei's official expenses in the Yamen.

At the same time, Gu Jiangzi, Jiang Suiyun and Si Nongqing also sent their capable men to survey mineral deposits, plan roads, build schools, and teach cultivation in Shannan East Road, just like in Guannei Dao, and the atmosphere of Shannan East Road suddenly changed, and those righteous soldiers who hid in the mountains and did not dare to come down also came to the yamen to ask for surrender under the persuasion of their families.

After ensuring that these people did not commit the crime of killing the people, Zheng Feihuang and Zhou Bofu placed these people, and those who were interested in the army were included in the Jiazhou army after screening, although these people were lacking in discipline, and the battle array was far less than the veterans in the Jiazhou army, but they also had their own unique skills, crossing the mountains and mountains as if walking on flat ground, which was the best source of mountain soldiers, in order to pacify Shuzhong in the future, Zhou Bofu also absorbed a lot of such people to join the army.

If you don't want to join the army, there are also suitable arrangements, either to find an errand in the mines, workshops, or to be given land by local officials for them to cultivate, if you have had enough of torture before and don't want to stay in the sad land of Shannan Dongdao, there is no problem, there is a large area of uncultivated land waiting for them to cultivate, and when they get there, they will get far more land than Shannan Dongdao, as long as they cultivate for three consecutive years, the land will be owned by Tarn himself, and the court will also provide them with seeds, Farm tools and initial funds, the first three years did not have to pay a penny of tax, which also attracted many people to enter Hedong Province, Shannan East Province's population pressure was greatly reduced, and Hedong Province was gradually full of vitality under their efforts.

The imperial court is slowly changing the situation in Shannan Dongdao, Hedong Province and Guannei Province, as long as these places are revitalized, the Jia Dynasty will once again gather a huge army, and finally solve the affairs of Shuzhong, Mobei Grassland and Hedong Province, but before that, there was a brief peace in the world.

Li You also ushered in his second and third children at this time, Li Lingyue gave birth to a son in the West Garden, named Li Ji, Zheng Yan'er gave birth to a princess, named Li Jia, and his eldest son Li Jue has also reached the time to enter school, and the question of how to cultivate offspring has gradually been put on the agenda.

Li You still prefers the former plan, after all, this plan seems to be more conducive to the stability of the imperial court, so if nothing else, Li Jue will become the crown prince.

According to Zhou Nan's idea, she still prefers to select the erudite Hongru to the palace to give lectures to Li Jue, but Li You doesn't like this plan very much.

Since ancient times, except for one or two generations of emperors at the time of the founding of the country, most of the rest of the emperors have been raised in the deep palace, which has formed a paradox, the emperor is a very strict job, requiring them to have a deep understanding of the laws of the operation of the empire, and have a keen eye without being blinded by the ministers.

But it is too difficult to expect these people, who have little contact with the sufferings of the people, and who have only learned knowledge from books, to do this, and with their shallow knowledge of the world, how can they fight those treacherous and cunning courtiers, so as to firmly hold the whole empire in their hands? Not to mention that the knowledge they learned from books was still processed by the courtiers, and there was no taste of seeking the skin of the tiger?

Moreover, in Li You's plan, Confucianism will no longer be the foundation of the emperor's handling of court affairs, so Zhou Nan's suggestion was tactfully but resolutely refuted by him, and he had his own plans for how to cultivate future generations.

"Nowadays, several primary schools have been built in Beijing, many of which are famous teachers, which are specially used for the children of rich families in Beijing to study, so let Jue'er study with them!" It is still necessary to let his heir have more contact with the outside world, so Li You plans to let him study with students outside.
