Lu Yangge nodded: "It's okay, if I come back early, then I will help you see each other." ”

Even if I can't come back, your daughter-in-law and your mother can't just call the shots.

Chen Luxing hurriedly said: "Then father, you have to come back earlier." ”

He couldn't stop the emperor from going to Xirong, so he could only hope that his father would come back early and return safely.

Lu Yangge quipped: "Didn't you say that you are still young? Do you want to marry a daughter-in-law like that? ”

"No, I don't want to marry a daughter-in-law, my son is still young."

Chen Luxing's face turned red, and he squeaked and whimpered: "Erchen has not left his father, his father went to Xirong, I don't know how much hardship I have to endure this way, Erchen, Erchen is just worried about my father." ”

He sometimes wondered if if it hadn't been for him to go to Sijon, his father would not have arisen the idea of going to Sijon.

Is it all because of his impulsive recklessness?

"It's okay, don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Lu Yangge looked at the shining sunlight outside the window, and said softly, "This time, I may not come back for a while and a half." I hope that you can guard this great business for your father, and love your people like relatives. ”

"Your grandmother is not in good health, and she coughs when she gets a little cold during the change of season, so you have to go there often. If you go, your grandmother will be able to eat half a bowl of rice. Your sister has been spoiled by your mother and me all these years, and you will protect your sister more in the absence of your father in the future. The girls of our family, the golden branches and jade leaves, deserve their happiness.

Your mother suffered a little when she gave birth to your sister, and her body was not very good, so you need to be more concerned and caring. She may be a little nagging at times, and she cares too much about your brother and sister, and that side cares about you...... I want you to be filial, but I don't want you to be foolish, you know? ”

"Erchen understands."

Chen Luxing hurriedly straightened his back and said, "Father, the sons will take care of their grandmother, queen mother and sister." ”

"And your little aunt, she is not much older than you, when you get to the time, don't be in a hurry to let her get married, stay for two more years. A girl is a treasure in her mother's house, and when she goes to her mother-in-law's house, even if she is a princess, she may not be able to live so comfortably. She is different from your sister, if you can protect it, you can protect it more. ”

"Yes, the retainer must respect the little aunt."

Chen Luxing felt a little sad in his heart, and he wanted to ask my eldest aunt.

But my father didn't say it, there must be a reason why he didn't say it. He wanted to ask, but he didn't.

Lu Yangge patted the young man on the shoulder and did not speak. She can't come back, with Gongsun Wanying's temperament, wait two years at most, and Chen Luxing will have to settle on a family affair.

The queen concubine, if there are not a few people in the palace, Gongsun Wanying will not stop.

What else do you want to command?

Lu Yangge thought for a while and asked, "Do you remember the schools that your aunt set up everywhere?" ”

"Remember, hasn't this school always been run by someone sent by my aunt? Last year, it was the first time that the students of those colleges participated in the imperial examination, and Erchen still remembered that there were 1 person, 1 person in the 2nd class, and 29 people in the third class, a total of 31 people. ”

This number does not seem to be much, but last year, a total of 166 students were admitted to the imperial examination, of which Beijing middle school students accounted for most of them. Most of the students who came from other places were from good families. And of the thirty-one people who came out of the academy, at least half of them were from poor families.

If there was no academy built by Princess Changle, Chen Luxing could be sure that among the thirty-one people, there might be less than ten or even fewer people who could really make it to the end.

Lu Yangge: "Yes, the imperial examination is held once every three years, and when I wait for the next time, I think there will be forty-one, fifty-one, or even more students from the academy." ”

Speaking of the eldest aunt's students, Chen Luxing's face was full of respect: "Erchen feels that this academy has not only cultivated pillars for the imperial court. For those students who have no money or no talent for reading, what they learn in the academy is enough for them to use for a lifetime. ”

Chen Luxing is actually very curious, her aunt has been going overseas for more than ten years, but the schools she opened are like bamboo shoots after a rain, and colleges have been opened everywhere one after another.

Last year's imperial examination, there were a lot more students who came to the capital to take the examination than in previous years. Before the imperial examination, his father took him out to the teahouse for a few days. Only then did he know that some students were born in the academy.

After the imperial examination, he specially checked, and there were many outstanding students from academies in various places.

Ranked among the top three, Lu Donglin, who was named Tanhua by his father, was from the Lu family of Dongyang County, and the college in Dongyang County was also the first college run by his aunt.

This Lu family is my aunt's Lu family, and I heard that this person named Lu Donglin is my aunt's brother. The Lu clan has a genealogy, and in the genealogy, he is smarter and hardworking than most children.

Because of his poor family, Lu Donglin may have to go back to herd cattle in the clan after finishing his studies. But he has now become the Tanhualang of the Great Shang Dynasty and the pillar of the country.

All this is because my aunt has built colleges everywhere for poor children to study.

"That's true."

Lu Yangge walked to the window and looked at the bright sunlight outside the window.

The flowers of the Royal Garden, bathed in the sun and rain, are served by special people, and they are naturally very beautiful.

Those wild flowers and weeds, trying to find a place in the imperial garden, it is impossible to dream of it.

As soon as they show their first signs, they are ruthlessly eradicated by the gardener.

It has only been more than ten years since the establishment of the Great Shang Dynasty, but what cannot be changed is that there are only so many people who can become the pillars of the country.

Dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, and rats give birth to sons who will make holes.

The children of the big family, as long as they have the talent to read, will naturally be concerned and cultivated by the clan. If one person becomes a talent, he will inevitably bless the children of a family. In order to make the glory and wealth of the family be passed down from generation to generation.

And the children of poor families, with enough effort, may not be able to eat and clothe themselves, no matter how talented they are, wanting to get ahead is tantamount to dreaming.

When a court is in the hands of a fixed group of people, the imperial power is bound to make way for many things.

Lu Yangge's original intention of founding Meng Xuetang and Qi Academy was to let more children learn knowledge and be educated. Let poor children learn a craft, even if they can't be craftsmen, at least they can eat because of these skills they know.

Later, it was the Queen Mother who said to her, since you have taken the first step, then why can't you try to take a bigger step and go further.

There are some things that you have to hold in your hands to feel at ease.

From the Mengxue Hall, to the Qi Academy, and then to the Cheng Academy, this is probably the best gift she left for Xing'er.

Lu Yangge pondered for a long time before turning around and beckoning Chen Luxing: "Come and sit down, my father and you have a very important matter." Don't even tell your grandmother and your queen mother about it. ”

Chen Luxing was shocked by Lu Yangge's seriousness, he hurriedly knelt cross-legged opposite Lu Yangge, raised his head and asked, "Father, you said, the son promised not to tell anyone." ”

No matter what it is, as long as his father doesn't let him say it, he dares to guarantee that he will rot in his stomach for the rest of his life.
