Chapter 193: Revitalization
Wang Shouren was extremely smart, and as soon as he heard this, he knew what the Son of Heaven meant, so he straightened up and said: "Not yet famous, Weichen dares to ask His Majesty to give it."
How embarrassing is that......
Zhu Houwei smiled and said: "The heart is reason, so how about Wang Qing's learning is called 'heart learning'?"
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wang Shouren paid a big salute, but he couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, he went from enlightenment to speech, this road is definitely not smooth, he wants to pass on his scholarship to the world, maybe he may not be able to achieve it in his life, but now it is different!
The Son of Heaven gave the name, then the study of the mind is the official recognition of the academic, the study of the mind was born in Confucianism, will not suffer from the rejection of Confucianism, now he only needs to write and say, then in his lifetime may be able to carry forward the study of the mind on his own!
"Let's be flat." Zhu Houwei raised his hand and said, "I can also send you four sentences as the basis for the writing of the mind."
Wang Shouren was stunned.
"There is no good and no disgusting body, there are good and malicious movements, knowing good and knowing evil is conscience, and doing evil for good is a character." Zhu Houwei slowly said the four sentences that made people deafening in later generations.
Wang Shouren heard that the Son of Heaven was going to make a statement for his writings, but to be honest, he was a little reluctant in his heart.
The writings represent the achievements of the scholar in this life, and it is the foundation of whether he can shine through the ages, if the great Confucianism of the time made a preface and a speech for him, then Wang Shouren will not have the slightest opinion.
But the Son of Heaven?
The Son of Heaven is certainly the supreme in the world, but he ......
Wang Shouren didn't dare to refuse, he could only feel bitter in his heart, but he didn't expect that he was wrong, and he was outrageously wrong!
In just four sentences and twenty-eight words, but the essence of the mind is vividly embodied, Wang Shouren even felt that the Son of Heaven did not talk to him about the mind today, if he talked deeply, maybe the understanding of the mind was more thorough than him.
It's a pity that Wang Shouren didn't know that the Son of Heaven was a person who crossed over, and he was lucky enough to read the "Biography" before the crossing, so he was able to point out the core idea of the study of mind......
'Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations. ’
Mr. Hengqu shook the past and the present with four sentences, and he Wang Shouren can also be famous through the ages with these four sentences given by the Son of Heaven!
After Wang Shouren expressed his gratitude and expressed his loyalty, Zhu Houwei said: "I transferred you back to the capital to entrust you with a heavy responsibility, I originally planned to let you patrol Jiangxi and eliminate bandits, but now I think about it is a bit overkill for you, your heart is people-oriented, I also want to open the wisdom of the people, think about it, this matter is up to you, it is most suitable."
Wang Shouren felt that the Son of Heaven wanted him to raise a point of study and politics, but this official seems to be a little smaller than the governor, which is called overkill?
"Since we want to open up the wisdom of the people, we must carry out education for all." Zhu Houwei's expression was a little solemn and said: "There are a lot of scholars in the Ming Dynasty, but if you want to count according to the population, only three or four of the hundred people are literate, I think it is too little, this number is at least ten times more than that, it's not that the people go to the imperial examination after studying, but I don't want the people to be ignorant, and they can't even write their own names, Wang Qing can understand what I mean?"
"I know a little bit about it." Wang Shouren told the truth, but his heart was already shocked to the point of no return.
Education for all, thirty or forty out of a hundred people study? What a concept this is, it's hard to imagine!
So many people go to study, not to talk about the question of whether they can read or not, but once they read the book, they will definitely want to take the imperial examination, so what about Nongsang? What about craftsmanship? What about the military?
Although he felt that the Son of Heaven was eloquent, wise and wise, Wang Shouren still felt that the Son of Heaven was a little whimsical.
"In my lifetime, I want to see the school houses blooming everywhere in Daming, Wang Qing may think that my idea is unrealistic, but those who have aspirations can do it, if they don't even have ambitions, then they must achieve nothing, and with ambitions, then there is a possibility of achieving them, isn't it?"
"Your Majesty, the minister is a little puzzled."
"You say."
"Your Majesty's intention seems to be to build schools in various places and recruit children to go to school, but there are prefectural schools and state schools in each prefecture, county schools in each county, and even private schools in the villages......"
Zhu Houwei waved his hand and said with a smile: "What Wang Qing means, I know that there are indeed school houses in various places, but since the county-level school houses, who can enter?" Only students with meritorious names can enter, as for private schools...... The son of the people is a strong labor force for the people, and for the people, they can't even afford to send their children to study, so they naturally give up the idea of letting children study......
When a child reaches the age of seven, both men and women must be enrolled, boys are required to study for three years, focusing on literacy, poetry, and mathematics, and for women, and for women, they must be implemented in every township, town, and even village.
After the compulsory period, the girls return to their respective homes, and the boys decide whether to enter the county school according to their academic performance, and the county school brings together outstanding children from various towns and villages for a three-year study to learn Confucianism, mathematics and Gewu.
After three years, children with excellent grades in county school can enter the government school or state school, and the government school will be conducted for three years, mainly in Confucianism, engineering, mathematics, agriculture, commerce, medicine, soldiers, and other ......"
Ren Xing handed a thin book to Wang Shouren, and Zhu Houwei continued: "This booklet was drafted by me myself, and it has formulated in detail the main purpose of how to run a school from the township to the government, Wang Qing can take a closer look."
Wang Shouren didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly opened the booklet, and after about a stick of incense, he completely understood the intention of the Son of Heaven, and was shocked and sighed at the far-reaching vision of the Son of Heaven.
To put it simply, the township school is called the primary school, with children's literacy and numeracy as the mainstay, and after the end of the primary school, the entrance examination will be carried out, and the children who pass the examination will enter the county school, and the knowledge taught by the county school is much more profound than that of the primary school, and Confucianism, mathematics and Gewu are equally important, regardless of priority.
At the end of the county school, the same examination is required, and those who pass the examination become the students of the government school and the state school, but at this level, the students learn more carefully, and the students who can take the road of the imperial examination continue to study the four books and the five classics, and those who cannot take the road of the imperial examination decide the direction of continuing their studies according to their own interests or directly with their household registration.
Finally, there is Beijing Studies, that is, there is a Beijing School in each of the two Beijings, and students with excellent grades in the government schools can enter Beijing Studies, as for what to study in Beijing, it is not written in the booklet......
Taking a deep breath, Wang Shouren closed the booklet and asked, "The minister still has a puzzle to ......?"
"You say ......"
