This is called Liu Chun's popularity.

This look made Zhang Anshi a little unhappy.

"That being said, but"

Zhu Chun smiled slightly and touched his head: "It's not easy to read, you have to work hard." ”

The young man glanced up at Zhu Chun in confusion.

But Zhu Chun only smiled at him, this smile was very pure, so pure that even the young man was completely unguarded, and the young man snorted.

Zhu Chun had already left a long back, leading everyone to walk towards the noisy place of countless lights.

Y two gentlemen.

"What does Your Highness command?"

"You don't need to call Your Highness, people have always called me Shu Xiucai."

Two great Confucians.

Zhu Chun said: "Shu is the country of abundance, and the people are rich. ”

"Yes, especially the Dianshu Xiucai you love the people."

Zhang Anshi said: "I know what you want to say, you scholars...... No, Mr. must be full of doubts, in fact, the means of this Taiping Mansion are not new, it is nothing more than the words "the people are rich and the country is strong", the people are rich, and the tax source of the government is large, and the tax source is large, and there are more things that can be done. Let's just talk about this Taiping Mansion, in order to open up financial resources, the Taiping Mansion tried its best to dredge the canal, why is this? Isn't it to open up the network of merchants and provide them with greater convenience for their trade, so that commerce can flourish and more commercial taxes will be collected? ”

Zhu Chun's eyes showed a little disappointment, he wanted to say something, and finally swallowed these words back into his stomach.

Meanwhile.

Zhang Anshi returned to the Right Capital Governor's Mansion.

Zhang Anshi was still indignant at the scholar's tricks, scolding and scolding.

At this time, Chen Li had already come.

Nanzhen Fusi is not far from here, so Chen Li often comes, and Zhang Anshi has long been used to it.

"Governor, that thing is arranged."

"Which thing?"

"The person named Li Shimian was sealed."

Zhang Anshi paused: "I, Zhang Anshi, am a real person, I don't like to play false, I only seek practical results." And the grain endowment, this grain endowment...... If you want to collect more, it is nothing more than trying to ensure that the farmers can have a good harvest, and in order to let them have a good harvest, the government must find a way to build water conservancy, and the relationship between the government and the people is complementary. But to complement each other, its essence is ...... It's all about ...... Sort out the relationship between the government and the people. ”

Zhang Anshi glanced at the scribe beside him, and the clerk hurriedly retreated.

Zhang Anshi immediately paced forward with his hands behind his back, and said, "This guy is very showy now, right?" ”

"Yes, it can be said that everyone praises him, he and the king of Shu are now eager to be called sages, into his mother's ijH."

Zhang Anshi smiled slightly: "If the King of Shu doesn't say it, I can't afford to provoke it now." However, this matter of Li Shimian should be done as soon as possible and remembered...... Do as I say, I don't want blood, I don't want to kill, I want to punish his heart. ”

Chen Li said: "The governor can rest assured that he is humble, how can he ever make a mistake, then...... Humble and start doing it? ”

Zhang Anshi shook his head: "You don't have to wait now, it's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, let's do it the day after tomorrow." lest others say that I am stingy and impatient. ”

Chen Li blinked hard, making his eyes slightly red: "Dudu, you are really ...... No, it's so magnanimous......"

So Zhang Anshi stared at Chen Li with a stern gaze, Chen Li's heart suddenly became weak, and he smiled: "There is another matter, there is news from Dongchang, saying that it is His Royal Highness the King of Shu...... It seems to be lost. ”

Zhang Anshi said: "It's about my birds." ”

Chen Li said: "But now the crowd is raging, and many people think that they think ·

Liu Chun saw that Zhang Anshi didn't have a good face for himself, but after listening to Zhang Anshi's words at this time, he shook his head sometimes and nodded sometimes: "What kind of relationship do you sort out?" ”

He lowered his voice and whispered to Zhang Anshi.

Zhang Anshi said: "I know, then send someone to find it, before tomorrow evening, I want to see people in life and corpses in death." ”“”

"Yes."

The next day, when the whole capital was worried about the life of His Royal Highness the King of Shu.

This Shu king Zhu Chun arrived in the capital.

This was almost unexpected by everyone.

Many readers were overjoyed.

But there are also many people who can't help but be disappointed.

This is a complex psychology, they seem to be a little anxious, the death of the king of Shu is not clear, in this way, the king of Shu has become a sacrifice, and has become the evidence to accuse His Majesty of being the first tyrant in the world.

Zhang Anshi said: "Share weal and woe!" If the tax problem is not sorted out, then those who have money and grain will not pay taxes, and in this way, the government will not get any income from them, and if they cannot get any income, they will have no incentive to do security. Let's talk about businessmen, if there is no business tax, then what does it have to do with the government if commerce and trade are developed or not? In many places, many officials only know how to fish with all their might, while merchants are trembling and walking on thin ice. In this way, a vicious circle will inevitably be formed. But the Taiping Mansion is different, and the Taiping Mansion now has seventy or eighty percent of its taxes coming from commercial taxes, which is why it ...... The government wants this business to flourish more than anyone else, so on the surface, the government has collected a lot of taxes from the merchants, but in fact...... Merchants can rest assured and boldly engage in business, which promotes commerce. ”

It's a pity that many scholars originally wanted to welcome Zhu Chun, but now ...... By the time they learned that the King of Shu had news, it was too late to greet them.

It is reported that His Royal Highness the King of Shu quickly entered the palace.

Wenyuan Pavilion.

Yang Rong and Hu Guang were playing chess at this time.

Hu Guang stroked his beard and looked triumphant: "Yang Gong, it seems that you are going to lose again." ”

Yang Rong smiled: "Hu Gong is amazing. ”

Hu Guangdao: "Hey, I knew I would let you have a son." ”

Yang Rong only smiled.

Hu Guang already knew Yang Rong well, and when he saw him like this, he said, "Yang Gong...... What kind of ghost are you pregnant? ”

Yang Rong said: "No." ”

"In fact, everything in the world is like this. If you don't tie everyone to a rope, you will only lose both, where is the reason for mutual benefit? ”

Hu Guangdao: "There must be, there are things in your eyes that can't fool me." ”

Yang Rong said: "Not really. ”

Hu Guang sighed and said, "If Yang Gong wants to hide it, then hide it." ”

Yang Rong had no choice but to say: "Actually, I want to tell you one thing, I have played countless games with people in my life...... But...... The most recent one was to teach people to admire my chess skills...... It was at the age of sixteen. ”

Ah Hu Guang was surprised: "Yang Gong's chess skills, is it so bad? ”

Yang Rong smiled: "At that time, I was too young, I was still in the prime of my youth, and I wanted to fight for a win or lose in everything, but after I was sixteen years old, I knew that in fact, winning or losing is just a person's obsession...... When I play against people, I often lose more and win less, so ...... to make people smile. ”

Hu Guang:

Yang Rong patted him on the shoulder: "It doesn't matter, although you are now forty-two, even if you understand this truth now, it is not too late, everyone has a competitive heart, this is human nature, don't refuse to forgive yourself because of this." ”

The smile on Hu Guang's face was stiff, and gradually, even the stiff smile disappeared, and he said angrily: "It's boring, it's really boring, I'm playing chess with you, but you are still playing with your heart." ”

Yang Rong said: "So it's rare to be muddy, you have to break the casserole and ask to the end, originally you didn't ask, and now you are still enjoying the joy of winning chess, why not?" ”

Liu Chun smiled: "Since you have collected a lot of taxes, why do you want to build a school?" ”

At this moment, someone hurriedly came: "Your Majesty has a decree to announce that all the scholars will be presented." ”

Hu Guang said urgently: "What's the matter?" ”

"His Royal Highness the King of Shu...... Entered the palace. ”

When the two heard this, they looked at each other, and their eyes became solemn in displeasure.

This King of Shu is a very tricky problem.

At that moment, Yang Rong said: "Let's go, go to the audience immediately." ”

Be careful today, your majesty will be furious.

At that moment, the three bachelors of Wenyuan Pavilion entered the Wenlou.

In the building, Zhu Di's face was slightly unhappy, and he only glanced at them obliquely, but did not speak.

The three of them saluted, and Zhu Di only hummed.

"If I say that the people are the center, do you believe it?"

Soon, a eunuch said: "His Royal Highness the King of Shu is here." ”

"Xuan."

Zhu Di got up and took a few quick steps forward.

Zhu Chun, the king of Shu, walked into the hall in pieces, and before he could salute, Zhu Di stopped in front of him and said with a smile: "Don't come to harm?" ”

"Your Majesty, Your Brother..."

Zhu Di waved his hand: "It's very hard to come back this way, hey, I've been thinking about you for a long time, and when I ordered you to enter Beijing, I kept pinching the days, but who would have thought that you were still a few steps late." ”

"My brother is dead."

Zhu Di waved his hand: "Hugh wants to say such a thing, come here, give a seat." ”

Saying that, Zhu Di turned around and returned to the throne, and after taking his seat, he looked up at Zhu Chun, the king of Shu who was sitting down.

He had a smile on his face, but his eyes were dark and uncertain, and he was preoccupied.

Liu Chun shook his head.

"You already know about the capital, right?"

"Brother knows a little bit about it."

"What do you think?" Zhu Di's gaze began to become a little sharper.

It's five minutes late, sorry, but the efficiency of the main code word at night is a bit slow, and tomorrow ...... Tiger will be updated a little earlier, and we will recover slowly.

Zhang Anshi said: "Then if I say it...... The more literate people there are, the more literate people can produce greater value, and it has great benefits for the governance of my Taiping Mansion, I wish everyone in the world could read, do you believe it? ”

He doesn't think very well of readers.

Liu Chun was stunned.

Zhang Anshi said: "In all dynasties, what the imperial court cared about most was the so-called culture and education. But let me ask you, the so-called cultural and educational ...... In the past thousands of years, what has been grown, I don't see any growth, so what do you think is the reason? ”

Liu Chun frowned: "It's the wrong method of education." ”

"Wrong." Zhang Anshi now has a little bit of a desire to hang up the reader in front of him and use it as a target, most of the readers he met in the past are at the level of Jinshi, all of them are able to speak well, quote scriptures, pinch them with their hands, and when it comes to the battle of tongues, Zhang Anshi can only be pressed on the ground by them and rubbed against him.

Today, I finally met a rookie who didn't even get into the show, and you hit the muzzle of the gun yourself, so don't blame me Zhang Anshi for kicking the kindergarten.

Zhang Anshi said: "It's not that the method is wrong, but that ...... Teaching is useless, in this world, the vast majority of people ...... There are many people who make a living in agriculture and are slaves, let me ask you, what is the use of these people studying? ”

Liu Chun said: "If they read the books, they will naturally not be reduced to slavery and farming. ”

"Isn't that ridiculous?" Zhang Anshi smiled and looked at Liu Chun with disdain: "It's like everyone can take the merit test, if everyone can get the test, then in this world, can everyone be a lifter and a jinshi master, and everyone can eat and drink without worry?" But in fact, the vast majority of the time there are a small number of people with meritorious fame, and the vast majority of people ...... You need to farm, you need to be a slave, you need to feed these masters. ”

Liu Chun pursed his lips, thoughtful.

Zhang Anshi said: "So...... There are only two ways to solve this so-called problem of indoctrination, one of which is ...... Let people really get benefits in education, such as this primary school, can read and write, in the future he will learn other skills, whether it is arithmetic, as well as being a craftsman, or being an official, no matter what he does, everyone finds that after reading these things, he learns these things by himself, and he gets twice the result with half the effort, with these things that can be seen and touched, you don't need to urge them, the parents of this world, even if they don't eat or drink, they will grit their teeth and send their children to the school. ”

If you didn't really need to teach, you wouldn't have come here to 'put on a show'.

"The second is to be down-to-earth, to find a way, to teach them what they can really learn and put into practice, instead of vainly expecting to teach them things to test their fame. If so...... So what's in it for the living? ”

Liu Chun thought for a while: "Although this is the case, I always feel that it is a side door. ”

Zhang Anshi laughed.

"What are you laughing at?"

Zhang Anshi said: "I look at your Confucian shirt, but it is gorgeous, but I am afraid that although the price is not expensive, it will also require a few taels of silver to buy it." ”

"This."

Zhang Anshi said: "The reason why you say anything is because of ...... Even if you don't support yourself, you can have no worries about food and clothing, so you can talk about what is sideways, what is lured by profit, people like you, I have seen a lot, I am not hungry, so I ask others to be noble with you, I have beautiful clothes, so I ask others not to eat the food that comes from you. You have seen the hardships of others, you know that life is not easy, and you know how humiliating and burdensome people endure in order to be fed and clothed. You don't dare to say such things. '”

It's like a man from a wealthy family talking about benevolence and morality to a beggar on the street. It is not only ridiculous, but also shameful that you have no worries about food and clothing, but you do not let others pursue food and clothing. ”

Liu Chun listened to it, thought about it, and he was not angry.

Of course, Zhang Anshi was not afraid that he would be angry, and with an order, he could at least get a company of swords and axes out and cut the person in front of him into pulp.

However, Zhang Anshi finally endured it, reluctant to let the child trap the wolf, and today he is here to recruit talents.

Liu Chun said: "Actually, I have cultivated the land. ”

"Really?" Zhang Anshi said: "What do you think?" ”

"It's really hard."

Zhang Anshi said: "Have you ever been hungry? ”

"This."

Zhang Anshi said." So...... You can't simply sum up the hardships of a farmer in terms of hardship. Because someone ploughs the land and only experiences hardships, he may feel that he has the experience of working and can understand the truth of everything. But in reality, it's still far from it. ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Because the vast majority of people who have cultivated the land will never say that the cultivation is hard. Because they were born with hardships, they don't feel ...... What's so hard about this. When a cow is born plowing the land, will it find it hard to plow the land? In fact, what really makes them feel hard is not precisely this, but that they have worked hard for four seasons, but in the end they can't even eat, a serious illness, and they have to watch their wives and children pass away. ”

Liu Chun was quite touched when he heard this: "In this way, the governor has such an experience? ”

Zhang Anshi shook his head: "Although I don't have it, I have more knowledge than you." ”

Liu Chun:

Zhang Anshi said: "What else is going on? ”

Of course, Zhang Anshi couldn't tell him that he was a human being in two lives, and in the previous life, he lived in the countryside when he was young, although the rural life at that time was many times better than this era, but there were still sad memories.

Liu Chun said: "It seems that what the governor said is not unreasonable. It's just that I listen to outsiders......"

Zhang Anshi said: "Outsiders, which outsiders ·

"This."

Zhang Anshi said with a smile: "There are many kinds of people, but people with ulterior motives like to call the people of the world the so-called outsiders, so what kind of appearance do you make to ask for the people's lives, don't show it in front of me, tell the truth, this teaching gentleman, do you do it?" I see that although you don't have a reputation, you can talk very well, be a Mr. Mengxue...... It's also a ......"

Liu Chun said: "Don't do it." ”

Anshi Zhang:

Liu Chun got up: "The students just came to see, don't blame the governor, goodbye." ”

Anshi Zhang:

Liu Chun walked away......

Liu Chun said: "There are so many schools in Taiping Mansion, dare to ask where the money and food of the Governor's Mansion come from?" ”

Zhang Anshi was angry: "Enter his mother, he entertains me." ”

Xuezheng hurriedly stopped Zhang Anshi and persuaded bitterly: "Governor, Governor...... Scholars are like this, such madness, naturally they can't understand the deep meaning of the governor."

Zhang Anshi said: "Don't teach him to see how powerful I am." ”

"If the governor really fights, there will be no scholars to teach in the future."

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Anshi calmed down, took a deep breath, and said: "It seems that this cultural and educational matter is really not suitable for me, I have more important things to do, you have worked hard, the matter of the academy...... Be attentive. ”

Xuezheng and the others breathed a long sigh of relief, and hurriedly said, "Yes." ”

This person called Liu Chun came out of the Qunru Pavilion.

He looked back at the carved attic.

Distance...... It is the spacious river, the square under the attic, because the sun sets, the sun falls, there are many people, some are scholars in long robes, and some are dressed in short clothes, but they don't know what to do for a living.

"Taxes?"

Among the figures, the person named Liu Chun frowned.

"Your Highness, Your Highness...... Someone whispered, "Your Highness taught us to find it." ”

Liu Chun is no one else, but Zhu Chun, the king of Shu, Zhu Chun put his hands behind his back and did not say a word.

Liu Desheng said: "Your Highness is talented."

Zhu Chun said: "I actually saw that Zhang Anshi." ”

This son Liu Desheng said hatefully: "What if you didn't take His Highness, right? ”

Zhu Chun said: "It's really rude, and it's money when you open your mouth." ”

Liu Desheng said: "Hey...... Those who have always troubled the country are such unvirtuous people, Your Highness...... When I entered Beijing this time, I thought about it, did I accept the position of Governor of the Left Capital? ”

Zhu Chun said: "I am the son of the sect, and I should take the world as my own responsibility. ”

This Liu Desheng and Liu Guangjin on the side looked at each other, they were worried that His Royal Highness would put himself in an extremely dangerous situation by doing so, because the name of the virtuous king was really difficult to be tolerated by the emperor.

"Tax ......" Liu Chun said: "So many taxes?" ”

But on the other hand, they also vaguely hope that there is a person in this world who can balance traitors like Zhang Anshi.

Zhu Chun said: "Let's go, let's take a walk and enter Beijing tomorrow." ”

Liu Desheng nodded, and followed suit.

In the evening, Qixia seems to be more lively than the day, there are lights everywhere, and there are pillars on the street, on which are hung with unique kerosene lamps.

Zhu Chun went to an alley, but suddenly stopped.

It was a very small room, and it seemed to have a lot of people living in it, and this house did not even have a courtyard, and when the door was opened, there was only a passage for two or three people, and on the opposite side was the wall of another house.

But right in front of such a dark room.

But I saw a young man, moving a shabby little stool, holding a book and a charcoal pen in his hand, carefully copying on paper as inferior as straw paper.

The lights of the street happened to shine in this alley, and only a faint light happened to fall on the boy's book, and he tilted his head, afraid that his head would block the light, and concentrated.

Zhu Chun subconsciously stopped, looked up, and saw that the room behind the young man was pitch black.

"As long as everyone pays taxes, are you afraid that there will be no money and food?"

So I seemed to understand something in my heart.

Quietly, Zhu Chun walked behind the young man.

Immediately, he said: "You Master Cen, Dan Qiusheng, this paragraph was copied incorrectly, Cen Zhe, the small and high mountain is also a mountain, not a treasure cover." ”

The young man was startled and glanced up at Zhu Chun.

The boy stammered, "Oh, I'll take a look." ”

After carefully reading the text, it was indeed copied by mistake, so I hurriedly corrected it.

Zhu Chun said: "Why don't you go back to the house." ”

"It's also bright outside, so you can save lamp oil."

"Where's your father?"

"My father didn't return from work, and my mother was on the night shift."
