Chapter 552: Winning the Heart of the People
Liu Tantou lined up and also talked with his father-in-law.
After chatting for a long time, he realized that his father-in-law was not an ordinary farmhouse family, but a scholarly family that was passed down from farming and studying. A few years ago, Hebei's chaos broke out. His son was conscripted to Liaodong to deliver food, but he never returned. At first, his family thought that he had encountered an accident in Liaodong, but later he found out that he was following King Chen to stay in Liaodong.
After the spring of the second year, although my son was a weak scholar, he joined Wushuai Mansion as a clerk. Although he was not of a rank and was just a minor official, it was also a surprise. After the New Year, the father-in-law moved to Liaodong with his family and divided the fields and houses. In addition, the rewards his son received, the family also got rid of the chaos in Hebei.
As the Liaodong Army entered Hebei, the father-in-law's son was transferred to a minor official in the Ministry of Revenue of the Ministry of Revenue of the State of the State of the State of the State of Revenue in the Beijing court. Although he was only a minor official from the seventh rank, he was also an official from the sixth rank. After his son settled in Beijing, he moved to Beijing with his family. However, after Gaoyang's hometown was regained again by the court, the father-in-law, who had a strong sense of rural concept, returned to his hometown.
After returning home, he opened a si school in the countryside to open a school for the children of the country. However, the school was not big, he was the only one husband, but there were many children. This time, he heard from his son in Beijing that the court was intending to promulgate the school system in Liaodong in Hebei.
According to the court's school system, every 100 households will have one school, and every 100 households will have a primary school. The county will have a county school and the county will have a county school. Among them, the school established by the Baoyuli is a school, which is specially opened. The primary school established by the Lizhong is a school that will be opened after the Lizhong. These two halls are official schools that must be opened by the local government. The court shall bear the funds and salary of the teacher, and the local government shall bear the houses, tables and chairs and maintenance. Children who enter the school in the Méng School do not have to bear all costs, and must be forced to enter the school.
County schools are not compulsory. Children who are willing to attend or can afford the expenses can go to county schools. County schools belong to higher education schools and must be excellent county schools to enter county schools. County schools students can take the talent selection exam in the Shangshu Province every year, and the best ones are selected as court officials.
My father-in-law said that county schools are not the highest schools. I heard that they are above county schools and in the center of the court. There are also several more advanced colleges, namely the Imperial Academy, the Imperial College and the Military Academy.
Among them, the Taixue School mainly involves Confucian humanities education, which mainly cultivates officials and literati who enter the government and cultural education. The students who come from the Taixue School do not enter the government and become officials, but teach books and educate people.
However, Imperial College is a college with specialties, which mainly focuses on cultivating specialist talents. Imperial College has the Law School, the Book School, the Calculation School, the Siyi Pavilion, which specializes in cultivating translation talents, the Imperial Medical Center in the medical field, etc., and the Sitian Pavilion in the astronomy and calendar field. Its students are also mainly talents with excellent performance in various specialties, and are mainly descendants of officials and nobles.
The martial arts lecture hall specializes in training elite officers and middle and senior generals.
The three major colleges are the highest institutions, and after they are completed, everyone has the qualifications to become officials. In addition to the three major colleges run by the government, the court also encouraged the Si people to open schools, and even the most advanced academies can be opened by Si people. As long as various conditions can meet the review of the imperial court.
This time, my father-in-law came to the county town. In addition to attending the unspoken conference, the main purpose was to discuss the review of his si school and request that the county be dispatched to help him teach the children of the si school together.
Liu Tantou had never studied, so he recognized a word on the fallen shoulder pole. However, he had extremely respect for these literate literate literate people like ordinary people. After entering the city, he even took the initiative to buy a bunch of candy man to give to his father-in-law's nephew.
After the two entered the city, they agreed to attend the Wuli Conference together, and the father-in-law went to the government office. He went for sale with his back on his back.
After Liu Tantou sold his skin and bought a lot of wedding items, he could see abortions everywhere along the way. He was rubbing shoulders and heels, countless people. When he arrived at the agreed place, he saw that his father-in-law was waiting for him. In addition to his father-in-law and his nephew, there were two soldiers with swords on the side.
The father-in-law smiled and said, "I just went to see Lord Ti Xueyu. I didn't expect that the prefect was there. He met the child, and because he was worried that the Wuliu conference would be too chaotic, he sent two parents to take care of the old man."
Liu Heitan was also a veteran who had eaten military rations and went to the battlefield, so he felt very kind after seeing these two soldiers. "Hello, two brothers, my brother had also fought in Liaodong three times back then. When I saw this horizontal sword, I felt kind."
When the two soldiers who were speechless heard that this black man had fought against Liaodong three times, they couldn't help but Xiao Ranqijing. They were all just infantrymen reorganized by the Liaodong Army in Hebei and had never been to the Liaodong battlefield. But they also knew that in the court, whether in the court or in the army, they were all controlled by these Liao conquering men and did not dare to take over for a while.
After the few people met, two soldiers opened the way, which saved a lot of trouble. They soon arrived at the venue of the Wuliu Conference, an abandoned military camp in the north of Xianyu City. Liu Tantou looked at it and saw that what he saw was full of black heads, which were denser than the dense infantry formation they had arranged back then.
The north wind was howling, but no one felt cold. So many people were crowded together, not only were they not cold, but they had already squeezed and sweated like rain.
The Wuli Conference is actually the Buddhist charity conference. To be simple, it is just a few monks who recite scriptures on one side, while other people recite scriptures and pray for blessings. In general, in disaster years, asking for rain, or for example, a big man becomes sick, there will usually be a spontaneous monk, either the government pays money or the wealthy family pays money to set up a fasting party.
During the Late Festival, what attracts the people the most is actually the donation at the Late Festival. Every time there is no folding meeting, there will be donations. For large scale, each citizen can not only receive a portion of vegetarian food, but also receive different amounts of food, cloth and other items.
Nowadays, everything in Hebei is rebuilt after chaos, and the people have not even fully solved their food and clothing. At this time, the Wuli Conference where ten thousand monks gathered together will naturally not be small. If you don’t go to anything else, just for the amount of food and cloth that will definitely not be small, you can already flock to the nearby people.
There was still no melting snow everywhere in the venue, and the cold wind blew, but the hot hearts of the people were not affected at all.
A long row of large pots were already placed around the wide venue, and boiling hot porridge was boiling in each pot. The soup was not sparse, but it was a very rich paste. Not only could you see the rice grains, but there were many red dates, white lotus seeds, yellow beans and other foods in the white porridge. The people who were queuing were very happy. For every person who was queuing, the monk who gave the porridge would politely make a spoonful of porridge.
On the side of the big pot, there were monks sending yellow cloth bags there. Each cloth bag not only had a bucket of food, but also several pieces of clothing and several feet of cloth. Such gift packs made the people feel very happy. Every person who took them would come forward to kowtow and kowtow, and recite scriptures.
However, the people thanked not only the Bodhisattvas. Although this unforgettable conference was initiated by monks, the food, cloth and clothing donated at the conference were all allocated by the court.
There were also a large number of local officials and servants next to the monks, and there were also government marks on each cloth bag. The people were still very polite in this way of winning over the people. Moreover, in addition to Gaoyang County, the local governments of various counties under the Hebei court at this time also distributed pre-New Year supplies to the people in various places according to the standards of the scattered conference.
Although everyone may not get much, a bucket of rice, a few feet of cloth, one or two old clothes donated by those kind-hearted people. However, the amount accumulated to a large amount, and the amount obtained by millions of people was also a huge number. Some people in the court opposed it, especially the Ministry of Revenue, which has not yet solved the food gap. However, in the end, Chen Kefu signed the Prime Minister's Order and enforced it stubbornly. It is said that if a group is cracked down on a group, it must win over a group. Since he has targeted the powerful families, the hearts of ordinary people need to be comforted.
A bucket of rice, a few feet of cloth, and a few old clothes. Every person who received was crying. It was also the court that the court had ruined their entire family a few years ago and displaced them. But a few years later, the new court in Beijing cared for the people so much that they not only allowed them to return to their hometowns, divide their land, but also provided food to them through the difficulties. Even the Chinese New Year was approaching, the court did not forget them.
Everyone was praising the emperor's wiseness, the kindness of King Chen, and the Bodhisattva hearts of the monks and masters. However, the people thanked more Chen Kefu. Everyone knew that the court had such a big change because His Highness Chen was thinking about them. This was the case when His Highness was in Liaodong. At that time, they were envious and tried every means to escape to Liaodong. Now that King Chen has finally arrived in Hebei, they have lived such a good life. Many people even thought, let His Highness Chen be our emperor, otherwise, if the emperor of the Yang family is like Yang Guang one day, everyone will be finished.
The people are the most simple. They don’t know much about etiquette and imperial power. They only know that being good to the people is a good emperor. Those who make the people not have enough food or clothing are a foolish monarch.
