"That's right! His Royal Highness the King of Shu, you can think so, that's too wise. Xu Jingchang stroked his palms and laughed, he would never mind having more and more friends, especially the royal bloodline, the identity of Lao Zhu's son, pulling them to do things together, hiding behind him, don't have fun.

"His Royal Highness the King of Shu, since you have spent so much effort to promote education, why don't you come out to run a school!"

Zhu Chun was still hesitating, "Dingguo Gong, what do you mean?" ”

Xu Jingchang said with a smile: "I have run a school in Yingtian a long time ago, and I have been praised by His Majesty as the first private school in the world, and even His Royal Highness the Taisun was enlightened there. ”

Zhu Chun seemed to remember, but hesitated again, "Dingguo Gong, this school is definitely not cheap, right?" Very expensive? ”

Xu Jingchang rolled his eyelids and thought seriously for a long time before he said, "Will running a school lose money?" I remember making a lot of money! ”

At this time, Zhu Gaoxu, who lowered his head, suddenly said faintly: "All you earn is my money!" ”

Xu Jingchang was stunned for a moment, without the slightest hint of gratitude, and sneered: "It was my student who helped you make a fortune, and now you can make your business so big, it's not because I helped." ”

The quarrel between the two of them made Zhu Lu and Zhu Chun interested, and they immediately tortured and asked, what did you do?

Xu Jingchang couldn't hide it, so he simply told the ...... At the beginning, in order to settle the displaced people, Xu Jingchang turned his fortunes everywhere, got the abandoned land of the military camp, and asked for food, so it can be said that he didn't spend much money to build the school.

And this school, more than ninety percent, trains workers.

typesetting for Zhu Gaosui, textile for Zhu Gaoxu, and the fast-growing bookkeeper...... Now these people are the mainstay, or the more the merrier, it can be said that it is a bottomless pit.

Zhu Chun understood, "Dingguo Gong is taking advantage of the imperial court...... Then if I run a school, can I get some benefits? ”

Zhu Hu also seemed to be tempted, "Dingguo Gong, I don't want to do business, I want to teach some healers." Zhu Hu couldn't help but sigh, not to mention that good doctors are hard to find at the moment, even if there are not many quacks.

Those who know a few herbs dare to sit in the hall and ask for a consultation.

The main reason is that in the hundred years of the Yuan Dynasty, a large number of medical works have been lost, and the common people have been reduced to fourth-class people, where can they still afford to be sick?

Although Xu Jingchang didn't say good things about the Song Dynasty, he had to admit that the medical skills of the Song Dynasty were still quite good, but there was a disconnection.

For example, the famous national treasure Tiansheng Bronze Man was lost in the Jingkang Change.

The Tiansheng Bronze Man is cast according to young men, containing meridian acupuncture points and internal organs, which can be used to teach acupuncture and moxibustion, and can also be used as an anatomy textbook, which is extremely precious.

However, the two bronze figures became the trophies of the Jin soldiers, and they went to the Jin Kingdom with the "two saints", and later it is said that they fell into the hands of the Mongols.

I just don't know if the Mongols brought it back to the Central Plains?

If they had brought it back, the Holy Bronze Man might still have been dusted in some unknown warehouse that day...... Of course, it is more likely that someone melted it and turned it into copper coins.

"Dingguo Gong, I have always wanted to find the Heavenly Sage Bronze Man, build a school, revive medical skills, and benefit the common people...... If I succeed, I will die without regrets! ”

Xu Jingchang can understand Zhu Hu's mood very well, and it is really their fault for letting medicine be lost and the national treasure be dusted.

"King of Zhou, King of Shu...... We can't waste money and cultivate those poor scholars who can only read the four books and the five classics. This is not to say that reading is not important, but that reading is just a primer. We need more capable readers. ”

Xu Jingchang returned to the house with his fist, "When I was running a school in Yingtian, I advocated cultivating what was needed. If we want an account office, we will teach arithmetic. If you want craftsmen, teach them skills. Now that there is a need for doctors, then open a medical school. It is necessary to reorganize the history books, summarize the governing concepts and lessons of the predecessors, and let's set up a history school. ”

"Your Highnesses, the time for Confucian scholars to monopolize knowledge has passed, and we must take action to cultivate our own talents. Otherwise, in a few years, even if we want to do it, we will not have a chance. Now that the status of Confucianism has been shaken, Your Majesty is determined to forge ahead, which is a godsend for us......"

I have to say that Xu Jingchang can really fool, Zhu Gaoxu watched from the side, and witnessed the two uncles from being suspicious to becoming enthusiastic, and their emotions were completely ignited.

King Zhou wanted to run a school and train doctors. Over the years, he has compiled a lot of medical books and materia medica, and has also met a group of like-minded people.

Zhu Chun hopes to start with Zhuge Wuhou and explore how to govern Bashu...... After reading books for decades, he is known as Shu Xiucai, but he read them all wrong, isn't it a joke!

"Fifth uncle, eleventh uncle, if you all agree with your cousin's proposition, it is better to write a joint letter, as a vassal king, set an example for the world, educate the common people, and benefit the community, my father will also be happy."

Zhu Lu and Zhu Chun nodded one after another, and the two of them didn't think much about it, and quickly wrote a detailed note and handed it to Xu Jingchang for him to hand it to Zhu Di.

The two princes were happily waiting for the call of the fourth brother.

But these two people are still innocent in the end, they completely forgot that Xu Jingchang is best at using the topic to play.

"Your Majesty, the minister has only completed the affairs of Beiping now...... In other places such as Liaodong, Datong, Shaanxi, and Gansu, there are still a lot of troubles. The minister shouldered the heavy task of inspecting the nine sides, but he could not complete the emperor's entrustment, so he had to ask His Majesty for his guilt. ”

Zhu Di frowned slightly, he hadn't figured out what Xu Jingchang was going to do, this kid was burdened with 200 million taels in arrears, and he came to ask for guilt at this time, wouldn't he want to dismiss him by himself, and then resign and go home and escape!

How does this work?

"Nephew Jing Changxian, these days I have been living in peace, thanks to your planning, you have done everything, and I have given you everything. If you still play tricks with me, then I won't agree. ”

Zhu Di grinned on his lips, and only he knew what he was thinking.

But Xu Jingchang felt inexplicably cold.

"Your Majesty has misunderstood...... The minister's meaning, the land and land of the guard, there is still a way to solve it. But what about the land of the kings? There is also a royal guard, can Your Majesty have a charter? ”

Zhu Di restrained his smile and became more serious than just now.

He started as a vassal king, and the most taboo thing is that someone concocts the same method and repeats the mistakes of the past.

Therefore, Zhu Di took control of Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, who rebelled early, and now Xu Jingchang once again mentioned the matter of the vassal king, which made Zhu Di instantly cheer up.

"If you have any ideas, just say them."

"Your Majesty, the minister has talked to the king of Shu and found that he is enthusiastic about learning, but he is surrounded by old Confucianism, and what he can teach the king of Shu is just clichés, which is of no benefit. The minister wondered if he could run a school...... Let all the children of the clan enter the school, teach the kings according to the latest great system, open up wisdom, increase their talents, and sharpen their learning, so that they may be more able to assist Your Majesty? ”

Zhu Di was stunned at first, and subconsciously shook his head.

He was afraid of the rebellion of the vassal kings, and took great pains to teach them skills, wouldn't he be cocooned and bound himself?

But how smart is Zhu Di...... He immediately realized the power of this move.

"You mean to bring the vassal kings together?"

"That's right!"

"Give them lessons back?"

"That's right!"

"What if someone can't learn well?"

Xu Jingchang smiled and said, "Then it depends on Your Majesty's intentions." ”

Zhu Di snorted: "Don't play tricks, you tell me the truth, what are you going to do?" ”

"Since Your Majesty asked, the minister will tell the truth...... May I ask Your Majesty, how many sons does Emperor Taizu have? ”

Zhu Di frowned, but still said: "There are a total of twenty-six sons in the imperial examination. ”

"Then how many sons does Your Majesty have?"

"In addition to the early death, there are still three sons."

"Then can Your Majesty calculate, with twenty years as a generation, after a hundred years, how many people will there be in the Ming Sect?"

Zhu Di's brows were a little calculated, and his brows became tighter and tighter, which didn't seem to be easy to calculate!

The clan conditions are good, there is plenty of time, and there are groups of wives and concubines...... They naturally reproduce much faster than the average person.

Like King Jing of Zhongshan, it is an exaggeration to give birth to more than 100 sons in his life, but there are still many people who give birth to dozens of sons.

It is not practical, it is not dozens, and it can guarantee that three or five will grow up.

Twenty years is a generation, and a hundred years is a full five generations...... How many clan children will there be?

Zhu Di really couldn't count it for a while. But it is definitely a very staggering number, at least more than the six ministries and nine kings and the ministers of the imperial court.

When it comes to courtiers, Zhu Di worries about Yulu every year, but if there are so many more clans, everyone opens their mouths and waits for the court to feed, then won't the Ming Dynasty be exhausted?

Zhu Di raised his head, his eyes fell on the eaves, he remembered that there used to be a swallow's nest in the palace, every year the swallow's parents would build a nest with mud, and then work hard to hatch the eggs, and wait for the chicks to come out, that is, when the parents were the most tired, the yellow beaks were like bottomless pits.

No number of insects are enough to stuff in, and the little swallow chirps all day long, begging for food all the time.

As the Son of Heaven, he is the father of all peoples, and he is the hard-working swallow parent...... How many swallows can there be in a nest?

Three or five?

What if it suddenly becomes thousands?

Zhu Di suddenly shook, and a chill surged from the bottom of his heart, and his face changed.

"You mean to use the academy to abolish the vassal king?" Zhu Di said in a deep voice.

"It's not!" Xu Jingchang said categorically: "Your Majesty is different from Jianwen. He imprisoned his uncle and forced the king of Xiang to death, which was intolerable. His Majesty ordered the vassal kings to enroll in school so that they could learn real skills and benefit the world. ”

Zhu Di thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "They really learned the skill, will they have it?" ”

Xu Jingchang said: "Your Majesty can remove the clan of more than three generations from the royal jade. Or just abolish their inheritance qualifications. ”

Zhu Di thought about it, it may be appropriate to limit it to three generations, if it doesn't work, then find a way.

"What about those clans who haven't learned their skills?"

"Then keep learning! After all, you can't even graduate from school, so how can you be a good vassal king? Xu Jingchang said as a matter of course.

The situation is slightly better, and there may be two more. By the way, I recommend a book, the old author's masterpiece "Fairy, Please Help Me Live Forever"
