One by one, the gifts were carried to the Seven Star Academy, and they were all given by Guizhou officials and wealthy families.

It seems that Zhu Ming has seen all kinds of luxury items from the original source, so the rich families choose to give away local products.

Zhu Ming didn't bother to refuse, he just took it as a bundle.

"What kind of wine is old wine? Why do you give a jar to each family? Zhu Ming looked at the gift list and asked.

Cai Yi, Shang Yongzhi and other officials also came to celebrate, and the former said: "The brewing of wheat koji is a specialty of Guangxi, and there are many in Guizhou. The gentry's house must be brewed every year, and this wine is used for weddings, funerals, and entertaining distinguished guests. ”

Shang Yongzhi said: "The previous reception was successful, and I drank old wine." There is another kind of ancient spicy spring, medicinal wine is also, from the hands of the Yi people in the mountains, the color is reddish, can prevent miasma. ”

All kinds of local gifts, Zhu Ming felt strange.

He actually saw the gourd silk, which was similar in appearance to later generations, except that the Song people called it Hu Lusheng.

There is also a kind of lusha, with eight pipes vertically and one pipe horizontally, similar to pan flute, which is said to be a Yao musical instrument.

Among the gifts, Yao goods are the majority.

In the Song Dynasty, the Yao people were mostly written as "Qi people" and "Shao people", and the familiar Yao around Guilin had not yet been included in the government rule and did not need to pay taxes and serve, so they got along more harmoniously with the Han people. They often went down the mountain to sell their goods, and the merchants transported them to the north to sell, so that they could take what they needed.

Let Zhang Bo, Li Bao, Guan Sheng and others move the gifts to the warehouse, Zhu Ming asked Zeng Xiaoduan: "How many students have signed up locally?" ”

"There are seventy-six people," Mr. Zeng said, "the oldest is 28 years old, the youngest is 13 years old, and there are even scholars studying in the state and county schools." ”

On the same day, after celebrating the inauguration ceremony of the academy, Zhu Ming began his first tour.

It's not far away, it's on the other side of Seven Star Mountain.

Cai Yi and Shang Yongzhi led the team, and Zhu Ming led many students to take a boat to visit Longyinyan.

You can raft straight into the hole, the interior is tall and broad, and there are traces of dragons hidden on the top of the cave.

Zhu Ming didn't see it much, but Cai Yi insisted that it was a dragon type, and it had a swaying water enhancement effect. After staring at it for a long time, Zhu Ming could only admit that it was a dragon, so that he could match the scenic spots.

A stone's throw away from the boat, there is a cave door in front of you, and you can meet a temple halfway up the mountain.

The abbot was an old monk named Yizhen, and he bowed and said: "Longyin Temple is adjacent to the Seven Star Academy, and Zhu Shanchang will often come to drink tea in the future." ”

"Well said." Zhu Ming smiled.

He did not hate any religion, as long as he did not get too involved in the world.

This Longyin Temple is good, it does not build a temple or annex land. With the cave as a Buddhist hall, he lives by collecting incense money, and there are only a few monks in total.

There is a Buddhist shrine carved into the rock wall, and Zhu Ming followed the customs of the villagers, and also stepped forward to worship a few times.

Immediately after going to explore other places, the monk Yizhen pointed to a corner of the cave and said, "There are trekking poles over there." ”

It is estimated that people often come to play, and Longyin Temple has prepared a bunch of trekking poles for free for tourists, anyway, he has enough incense money.

Zhu Ming and the students all went to fetch the cane, and Cai Yi and other senior travelers came prepared.

Zeng Gongyan and other famous places have been seen one after another.

Fang Tingshi had a good time, he hadn't been here much before, and there were signs of being dragged into the water to be a donkey friend.

Fan Zhiming asked questions from east to west, and when he collected liquor tax in Yuezhou, he also liked to travel around, and also wrote history and humanities into the book.

After climbing only one mountain, it was dark, and there were villages in the mountain, and everyone went to fill their stomachs.

The so-called village is only a dozen households.

But life is okay, often entertaining tourists, preparing meals to earn some extra money. The officials don't come to exploit it, otherwise they will travel to the mountains too much, where will they find a place to eat and stay?

"Woohoo!"

As soon as Zhu Ming entered the village, the earth dog barked.

Dogs also bully the weak and fear the hard, seeing that they are numerous, they only bark their teeth from afar, and dare not rush over to bite people.

Shang Yongzhi is very familiar with this place, and has sent an entourage to prepare in the afternoon. They brought their own drinks and lit a bonfire in the village, and the villagers brought baskets to pack food.

The people who accompanied him, some of whom knew how to perform music, also sang slang songs to help the fun.

After eating, it was already more than eight o'clock in the evening, and the trip did not end, Cai Yi took Zhu Ming to the Li River at night.

These Guizhou officials will really enjoy it.

They had already prepared the boat, and there were local prostitutes on board, and many students were crowded in the cabin, and even the students were happy.

Traveling in the mountains and rivers can always make people forget their sorrows.

A few jars of old wine were brought out, everyone raised their glasses and feasted, and then began to carry out the wine order.

Half-drunk, Cai Yi said: "Today's swimming, success has not yet written a poem." Now I'm going to write a poem, and I'll have people carve it on the rock wall. ”

"Yes, yes," Shang Yongzhi hurriedly agreed, and said proudly, "I have carved six poems on the rock wall near Guizhou. ”

It's good to say that if you engrave words in tourist attractions, you have to pay a fine after a few hundred years.

The local students, only a few followed, and they all looked at Zhu Ming at this time.

They already knew that Mr. Zhu was good at diction, and they had also read the masterpiece in the past few days, and they were waiting for Zhu Minglu to show his hand.

Even the famous prostitutes who sang the song cast their expectant eyes.

Zhu Ming said: "I don't dare to be kind to you and bring pen and ink." ”

The famous prostitute immediately got up to study the ink, took the pen and paper and looked at each other.

Zhu Ming borrowed the wine to make a big move, and he didn't bother to make a big change, so he just made do with it: "Fu was born in the wild stream, and he carried a bamboo cane into Guizhou." The rice basket welcomes the waning moon to the dawn, and the song board sings late autumn in the wind. Kick over the earthly road with two feet, and bear the sorrows of the past and the present on one shoulder. Now that they are not allowed to eat, why should the village dog bark endlessly? ”

"Wonderful!"

The people next to him applauded.

No one cares that this is late winter, not late autumn in the poem.

This is written about eating in the village community before, and mixed with Zhu Ming's life experience, writing about love and scenes, and the combination of fiction and reality.

is complaining about the village dog, but in fact, he is satirizing the traitorous party.

Fan Zhiming estimated that he was drunk, tilted his body and said: "I am not so free and easy, as the deputy envoy of the regiment training, I am still receiving food from the court." ”

Cai Yi said: "Choose a good place tomorrow and engrave this poem on Qixing Mountain." ”

Zhu Ming was playing happily today, and when he was drunk, he fell asleep in the painting boat.

The next day, I returned to the academy and started to get busy.

He wants to write school rules and discipline, that is, gambling is not allowed, etc., which is relatively lenient and will not interfere too much with students' words and deeds.

There is also the matter of class division, there are some underage students, and it is impossible for Zhu Ming to teach in person. Organize them into beginner classes and let the students take turns to substitute for them.

There is also a fixed class schedule and subjects, and physical exercise cannot be delayed.

The set of physical skills taught by Xue Daoguang is used as gymnastics for students to practice, and they have to play one set every morning.

The class leader of each class is elected by the students and is replaced on a monthly basis. The student councillor is also elected to assist in the management of the school. These arrangements are also available in Taixue, and they are not something that Zhu Ming came up with with his head.

The property donated by the wealthy is managed by the students, and Zhu Ming does not take it for his own use.

Even the school meals are not planned to hire cooks, and the students take turns to cook and cook. Zhu Ming and the entourage of the students can help with the help, and those who are willing to read can also come to listen to the class.

Teachers and students run the school together, the style of study is very free, pay attention to labor practice, and usually help with farming.

In the blink of an eye, it was Chinese New Year's Eve, and Zhu Ming celebrated the New Year with the students.

There is also a Lantern Festival in Guizhou, and Cai Yi's gang of officials dragged Zhu Ming to watch the lanterns.

At the end of the lantern festival, the Seven Star Academy officially opened, and an official ship came to Guizhou.

The official who delivered the official document went straight to the state and county yamen.

Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty promulgated a holy decree to officially abolish the three-way law!

The state and county schools all over the country, if they already existed in the Yuanfeng years, are still retained. The official schools built after Yuanfeng, as well as the official affairs of Biyong, Zongxue and Zhulu Promotion, were all abolished.

That is to say, the four-level promotion system has retreated to the state of the Yuanfeng period, and Cai Jing's school system reform has been abolished.

All the students were dismissed, and the teachers returned to Beijing.

Taixue still implements the three-rounding method, and you can continue to take the Taixue test, but you will no longer continue to recruit students.

The principals and teachers in Guizhou were stupid, they were not dismissed, but they were worse than the direct dismissal.

After the abolition, he can still return to Beijing to fill the vacancy.

Now doing so is equivalent to being hung in Guizhou. Their students could not be promoted, and all of them had to take the imperial examination, and their political performance was judged by the number of Jinshi admissions.

After the news broke, a large number of scholars dropped out of school and went back to private schools.

Because the subjects of state studies are messy, they are more miscellaneous than Zhu Ming's Seven Star Academy. Mixed with courses such as "Tao Te Ching", "Nanhua Jing", and "Liezi", these are all forgotten to be canceled.

After some scholars dropped out, they came to the Seven Star Academy to listen to classes, and Zhu Ming became more and more prosperous here.

It's just that the teacher is not enough, and he and Fan Zhiming can't teach it.

There was also a lack of school buildings and dormitories, and later students could not live on campus.

Fan Zhiming was already speechless to the imperial court, and couldn't help but complain: "This time, there is no warning for the boycott, how can the teachers and students of the official school adapt?" Many decrees have been abolished at a glance, this is not the way to govern the country! ”

Zhu Ming smiled: "The imperial court is short of money. If the government school is returned to the Yuanfeng system, more than half of the schools in the country will be abolished, which can save countless money every year. And what was abolished was Cai Jing's political achievements, and Wang Hao certainly had to do his best to promote it. This is the idea of the monarch and the minister, the emperor is to save money, and Wang Hao is to fight Cai Jing. ”

Guangxi is nothing, and the people of Jiangsu and Zhejiang are going crazy.

Although the Fang La uprising has not been completely suppressed, there is basically no possibility of turning over, and even Fang La himself has fled to the mountainous areas of Jiangxi and Fujian.

As a result, Song Huizong couldn't wait to resume the bureau, and Hua Shigang started again.

Chen Hengbo, the envoy of the two Zhejiang provinces and Jiangdong economic system, in order to raise military expenses for Tong Guan, suggested that the economic system money be collected in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

That is, the tooth tax on the sale of wine, houses, and fields, the addition of the head money outside the regular tax, and some other project taxes.

The targets of the tax increase cover all walks of life, and businessmen, landlords, citizens, and peasants should not even think about running.

The people of Jiangsu and Zhejiang were miserable, first robbed by Fang La, and then looted by the officers and soldiers, they had already suffered heavy losses, and the imperial court actually had to raise taxes crazily, and they also restored the hellish Huashi Gang!

What about the good sin of one's own edict?

Tong Guan himself has returned to Tokyo and asked his subordinates to continue to pursue and suppress the remnants of Fang La's army.

Tong Guan agreed with the collection of economic money, after all, it is true that money is needed to fight a war.

But the sudden resumption of Huashigang, even Tong Guan felt incredible, and advised Song Huizong: "The rice pot of the southeast people is not stable, and this evil is repeated?" ”

Song Huizong was furious, and Tong Guan was convicted for this, so he had to redouble his favor with the emperor.
