Chapter 1057 Free Education for All
As a time-traveler, Qingji knows very well how serious class solidification can have a bad impact on a dynasty.
Throughout the Chinese dynasties, there will always be a kind of "strange circle".
The general trend of the world will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time.
After the troubled times, there will definitely be a world of rule and peace.
For example, Li Yuan and Li Shimin, father and son, learned the lessons of the fall of the Sui Dynasty, lightly dismissed the meager endowment, developed the people's livelihood, and created the "rule of Zhenguan", and then Li Zhi and Wu Zetian carried on the past and forged ahead into the future, and there was the "prosperous era of Kaiyuan" created by Li Longji of Tang Xuanzong.
The Tang Dynasty reached its peak from Li Longji's hands, and also went into decline under his rule, until it perished, which can be described as a flourishing and declining.
A dynasty goes from establishment, to prosperity, to decline, and finally to demise.
This is a kind of historical circle of Chinese dynasties.
And the reasons for the demise of each dynasty are nothing more than natural disasters, man-made disasters, foreign invasions, and so on.
Among them, "man-made disasters" are the most serious.
The government forced the people to rebel, the officials ruled corrupt, the problem of land annexation, and the problem of class solidification became increasingly serious, and the people were not able to make a living, resulting in the common people having no way to live.
Class solidification is nothing, after all, as long as there is a bite of food to eat, no one dares to risk being killed to rebel......
However, class solidification does lead to a country losing momentum, only knowing how to keep things and not making enough progress.
This is precisely the thing that Qingji dislikes the most.
At this time, seeing that Zeng Dian was defeated in the debate with Deng Xi, Prince Heng couldn't sit still, immediately stood up, looked at Deng Xi vigorously, and said: "Lord Deng, let me ask you, in a country, the children of nobles will always be nobles, and the children of commoners will always be commoners, is it really good?" ”
"The second and third sons are nobles and vested interests, so they are naturally happy to see it. But is this fair to all the people of the world? ”
"It's not fair."
"I remember that His Majesty Father and Emperor had an incisive sentence in his early years, saying: A soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier."
"In the same way, a commoner who doesn't want to be a nobleman is not a good commoner!"
"This world is the world of the people of the world, not the world of a family and a surname, let alone the world of nobles!"
"Power is a public instrument, how can it be used privately?"
"I've reached a bottleneck now, how to break through? Only by implementing free education for all people can the world be able to promote politics and religion! ”
"Governing the country is like sailing against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat!"
"If you can't 'advance', you must 'retreat'. This also means that the national strength of my Dawu is bound to decline, or even collapse, when and when can we usher in ZTE? Ushering in a true reign? ”
"Lord Deng is preventing His Father and His Majesty from implementing free education for all like this, won't it prevent the prosperity of my Great Wu from coming?"
"This ...... I ......"
Deng Xi was speechless for a while, and couldn't come up with any words to reply to Prince Heng's sharp words.
The ministers and officials of the court couldn't help but gasp and were shocked by Prince Heng's remarks.
Stop the prosperity of Da Wu from coming?
Such a big hat was buckled on Deng Xi's head, and Deng Xi couldn't afford it.
The most important thing is, how dare Prince Heng say such a statement that "the world is a family and a surname"?
Great rebellion!
Fortunately, Prince Heng is the prince, and if he were someone else, I am afraid that he would not be killed by the always domineering Qingji, or even beheaded all over the house......
Listening to Prince Heng's high-sounding words, Qingji just frowned and did not speak.
He knew that Taizi Heng, this guy was "cunning and hypocritical", and the reason why he said such righteous and awe-inspiring words was just to successfully argue against Deng Xi, and he had no other intention.
At this time, as Deng Xi's proud disciple, Li Ke, the secretary of the Criminal Department, couldn't help it.
Even if the other party is His Royal Highness the Prince, Li Ke has to scare him.
Because Da Wu has never said that he will be convicted of his words, as long as Qingji doesn't care, he can scare people as much as they want.
"The prince's words are wrong."
Li Ke Zhengse said: "People are born with high and low, so nobles are nobles, commoners are commoners, and the two are not the same." ”
"Aristocrats are born to be officials, while ordinary people are born to work as farmers and laborers, and commoners can only engage in lowly jobs!"
"When I say this, I don't think that ordinary people are lowly in life, but on a case-by-case basis, their 'Huigen' is indeed low, not as good as the nobility."
"There is a local saying among the people, saying: dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and the children of mice will make holes."
"Now that I think about it, this local saying is not unreasonable."
"Among the many official schools in my Great Wu, there are actually many people from civilian backgrounds, after all, businessmen can send their sons to township schools, county schools, and even county schools by stuffing money."
"I have visited the official schools in Yanling and Zhoulai, and found that the articles written by ordinary students, as well as their knowledge and writing, are indeed far inferior to those of aristocratic students."
After a pause, Li Ke said meaningfully: "Although there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts, everyone's talent is more or less different. ”
"Some people are geniuses, and some people are mediocre."
"Why are the vast majority of my courtiers and officials in Great Wu nobles rather than commoners?"
"It's not that the state doesn't give civilians a chance to make a difference, it's that many of them are really useless!"
Li Ke's remarks insulted some ministers from civilian backgrounds in the DPRK and China.
At least offended!
They don't think they're inferior to those who come from noble backgrounds!
However, since ancient times, Huaxia has paid attention to "bloodline", and nobles have priority in everything.
Even if he is a very enlightened Dawu, if he is jealous of being virtuous and using his ability, he is also a meritocracy.
It is clear that people of commoner origin are indeed inferior in talent to those of noble origin.
"Color!"
Deng Xi followed out of the queue and bowed to Qingji, who was sitting on the throne, and said, "Your Majesty, it is an indisputable fact that the talents of the children of the commoners are not as good as the children of the nobles. ”
"If Your Majesty wants to implement free education for all, I am afraid that too many educational resources will be wasted!"
"Your Majesty, please!"
"Fallacy!"
At this time, Wu Hong stood up and retorted: "Lord Li, Lord Deng, people with relatively mediocre talents, are they really worse than geniuses?" ”
"His Majesty the Father Emperor once said something that the widow agreed with very much."
"What?"
"Diligence can make up for clumsiness, stupid birds fly first!"
"People with mediocre talents, as long as they work hard enough and are self-motivated, their achievements are not necessarily worse than those so-called geniuses, or even surpass!"
"Besides, as Master Li said, why is it that among the official schools, students from civilian backgrounds have inferior examination scores than students from noble backgrounds?"
"Is that what the word 'talent' can do? Definitely! ”
