Chapter 320: Confucianism Controls Mongolia

The deletion and revision of the law were put in the back first, but Zhang Lun at the moment continued to speak: "Returning to Your Majesty, this next one is to try our best to promote the sage's articles in Mongolia, and organize children to read Confucian classics in Mongolia day and night!" ”

However, Zhang Lun's remarks are completely different from Zhu Youzhen's initial promotion of new schools on the grassland, the construction of new-style schools, and even the opening of the right to participate in the new-style imperial examinations to Mongolian herdsmen in Mongolia.

This made Zhu Youzhen very puzzled, and even said as if he didn't understand it: "I'm a little puzzled, why is Aiqing like this?" After all, I once said in my own mouth that I would build a city on the grassland and start a school. ”

"Returning to Your Majesty, the construction of the grassland is naturally a necessary means to control the grassland, and the minister can only support this, but this school, with all due respect... It should be more relaxed and postponed. ”

"Why is that?"

And Zhang Lun's face did not change.

Continued: "Your Majesty . . . The inclusion of Mongolia in the territory of the Ming Dynasty did not mean that the Mongols could be completely treated on an equal footing with the Han Chinese in a short period of time, and it could take decades to assimilate, before that... The minister foolishly thought that he still couldn't teach the new school to the Mongolian people! ”

Zhang Lun didn't actually say it directly, but Zhu Youzhen still heard from his words that Zhang Lun was opposed to the establishment of a new school in Mongolia Province that he mentioned earlier.

It's just that Zhu Youzhen understands.

In fact, from a pragmatic point of view, Zhang Lun's words are right.

From the beginning of the division of provinces, the establishment of prefectures and counties to achieve the means of administration, and then the control of military power, all the military problems that may arise in all the Mongol provinces are firmly and directly controlled by the central court.

The law that followed created a sense of oppression like a mountain on the heads of all Mongols.

The way of Confucianism is now being promoted, rather than the new knowledge being promoted.

It is also culturally influencing all Mongolians now, and this kind of thing will continue to spread to the next generation.

I have to say that Zhang Lun must have done a lot of homework on Mongolian affairs.

Or maybe there is a master behind the guidance... Maybe it's Huang Liji, or maybe it's someone else, but no matter what, Zhu Youzhen understands that Zhang Lun in front of him must be a rare talent.

"I think everything else Aiqing said is feasible, but to promote Confucianism on the grassland... I'm still thinking about it for a while, after all, the real re-entry of the army into the Mongolian steppe will be in the spring of next year. ”

After Zhu Youzhen finished speaking, he ended breakfast.

Zhang Lun followed Zhu Youzhen and walked to the Dongnuan Pavilion again, which was much slower than taking the dragon chariot, and Zhu Youzhen arrived at the Dongnuan Pavilion a little later than usual today.

The two continued their deliberations.

But what he said no longer has much to do with Mongolia.

Zhu Youzhen originally thought that Zhang Lun would be directly appointed today, after all, one day earlier, Zhang Lun would have been able to make some preparations earlier.

But after discussion, Zhu Youzhen felt that Zhang Lun in front of him still needed to be prepared, as long as he could carry it out according to what he said, the Mongolian matter could be regarded as nothing.

However, Zhang Lun is not enough, Zhu Youzhen feels that he should find another minister to help him.

It's just that he won't be able to find it for a while and a half, and Zhu Youzhen is not too anxious.

Snow.

Winter is completely coming, in the territory of Houjin in the north of Liaodong.

Apparently sensing the arrival of winter earlier than Da Ming, Huang Taiji sat in his big tent, and there was a long pipe with a silver-white luster in the tent.

And at the end of the smoke pipe, there is a burning iron stove.

A small copper pot was placed on the iron stove, and a milky white soup was flowing from the boiling pot, and a pair of chopsticks were placed in it with a piece of red and white lamb slices.

Then he was picked up again and put in his mouth.

Chew.. Chew.. The taste was excellent, and Huang Taiji felt a little hot when he ate it, and then took off some of the heavy clothes on his body.

"Delicious.. This shabu-shabu tastes so good! ”

Anyone has to admit that Huang Taiji is a complete hero, a hero who has left a strong mark in history.

The repeated defeats with the Ming Dynasty, until the current situation, have not completely destroyed Huang Taiji's confidence psychologically.

It's just that he feels a little sorry.

Haoge sat not far from Huang Taiji, and he and Huang Taiji were in the same copper pot and soaked the meat together.

"Hauge, do you know why Father Khan signed such a shameful treaty with the Ming Dynasty so freely? Even because of this reason, many people in Houjin now hate me. ”

Hauge hesitated when he heard this.

Putting down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, he said: "Back to Father Khan, my son doesn't know why this is so, but my son knows that Father Khan must be thinking about my future Jin's great cause!" ”

Huang Taiji did not speak immediately, but instead sandwiched another piece of mutton and put it in the pot.

Only then did he speak: "I don't have so many ideas, but my father Khan knows that if he continues to fight with Da Ming rashly, it will only lead to greater defeat..."

"And the truce with the Ming Dynasty, we still have time to recuperate and catch up, after all, the emperor of the Ming court also needs time to develop, Ben Khan... Actually, it's clear! ”

But Hauge said with some doubts: "Then why is Father Khan... This time, when the Ming army started a war with Mongolia, we were standing by and watching the whole time, and we didn't come out to help? ”

"Help? What to help? Did the Mongols have any other chips worth mentioning? Huang Taiji asked rhetorically.

When Mongolia was useful, Huang Taiji could rely on the strength of the Mongols in every way, but now the Tatar Mongols that can be relied on have already lost everything that can be called hole cards.

He Huang Taiji is not a benevolent person.

Person.. It's useless, it's already the end of your life.

Mongolia, the same is true.

"Father Khan, why do you want to give those Mongolian nobles to the Ming Dynasty, and leave them in our hands, isn't it a kind of containment of Mongolia in the future?"

Haoge had too many doubts before, but Huang Taiji had been depressed after suffering the defeat, and it was not until recently that he packed all the Mongolian nobles and sent them to the Ming Dynasty, and his mood seemed to be much better.

"It's not that Father Khan wants to send them to Daming, but they have reached the point where they must die, but they are a little worried... If Da Ming doesn't kill these people, I'm afraid there will be more trouble. Huang Taiji said slowly.

The constant fragrance from the copper pot was soon enveloped in the big tent.

"Father Khan .. In that case, why give it to Daming? ”

"Or else? Let these wastes continue to stay in Houjin and be a blessing? Delicious food and drink are enjoyed, and the Eight Banners people of Houjin feed them..? Alas.. Son, you must not be too merciful! ”

Hauge: Is it merciful? That's a big problem!
