Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 473: All-round development of moral, intellectual, physical and aesthetic

ps: There are two chapters at the top of the five thousand chapters

If it were placed in later generations, Zhao Wuxi's behavior of only emphasizing the loyalty of the scholars to the lord but forgetting the monarch would definitely be criticized by all the Confucian scholars. (Baidu search network updates the fastest and most stable) to read books

But fortunately, this is an era when it is popular to say that "the vassal wants to open an office, it is a big sin", not to mention all the towns that are like ** states. People from the state of Lu once only knew allegiance to the Ji clan, but did not know the Marquis of Lu. Confucius and his disciples were also running around in different countries and there was no permanent master. Although he advocated that the ministers should be loyal to the monarch, he did not emphasize which monarch they should be loyal to. The consciousness of the Confucian disciples was not as high as that of Confucius, nor did they feel that what Zhao Wuxi was doing was wrong. This was the consciousness of the times at work.

Before Gong Xichi and the others had recovered from the excitement of the four subjects in elementary school, the three subjects and the time occupied by them were announced one by one, and they realized that they were being challenged extremely seriously.

In addition to etiquette, Chinese children in primary schools also need to learn literacy, that is, reading and writing; archery, which is a general term for military sports such as bowing and archery, cuju, hunting, and horse riding; in addition, there are mathematics, Of course, it is not as high-end as the equations that Ji Qiao usually plays, but only teaches the most basic six-armed, five-party, and arithmetic...

Not to mention that Zhao Wuxi changed the driving in Liuyili to riding a horse, and let Gong Xichi and others insist on driving, and the conservatives who refused to ride alone frowned. Although mathematics is also one of the six arts of a gentleman, it has always been a foil for ritual and music. However, in the ten-day class hours per month in elementary school, the first is archery. sky.

The masters of Sheke were mainly selected from the army, Shuke and Like were mainly disciples of Confucianism, and Mathematics were apprentices of Jiqiao's group.

In troubled times, there is nothing to say about martial arts, but Gong Xichi and others realized that in addition to Confucianism and the gradually forming medical schools, there is another private school in Xilu.

Mathematics, it was founded very early, but it is integrated into the official. There is not a strong sense of existence on weekdays. But nowadays, whether it is the city officials, or the small officials in the treasury, and the merchants who travel all over the world, they are all implicated in this school of "Zhou Bi figures". Its scope is also huge. Small to bargaining in the market, medium to living within one's means every year, large to measuring the height of the sky and the latitude of the earth!

Their sensitive nerves were affected, and the history of being challenged by the disciples of Shaozheng Mao in Qufu a few years ago is still in front of us. It is said that this person has been attacking and **** the master again recently. This kind of thing is about to repeat itself in Xilu?

Wow, it's really "tolerable, but unbearable"!

In a word, when the "end" status of mathematics, which is not valued, is equal to the "root" of their own rituals and music, some radical Confucian disciples began to criticize mathematics disciples on some occasions. Ji Qiao raised the bar in front of Zhao Wuxi.

"Mathematics is also one of the six arts of the gentleman in Confucius. It has no distinction between high and low, and rituals and music, so why should they be discriminated against? For those disciples in elementary school, learning arithmetic is the only magic weapon to settle down. In the future, they may If you are a merchant, an official, or a member of the army, if you can’t even calculate taxes and taxes, you can’t measure the height of hillsides, you can’t measure the depth of rivers, you don’t know how to coordinate the weight of corn, and you can’t manage the number of divisions and brigades. How can you be the backbone of Si Kou!?"

"Otherwise, mathematics is just a small path, and etiquette is the main road. Ritual is the norm of heaven. The principle of the earth is the basis for all actions of the people..."

Ji Qiao is emphasizing the difference between a person who can't count and salted fish, let alone wanting to be an official or an official, and even unable to gain a foothold in society. Gong Xichi, on the other hand, has been emphasizing ritual. It is the discipline of the upper and lower, the latitude and longitude of heaven and earth, and the reason why people are born, children must learn rituals.

Zhao Wuxi was full of laughter in his heart, the status of the two in front of them was not too high, and their power was not too heavy. But he was blushing. It seems to be a battle of snails, but at a deeper level, it is the first time to decide the status of several schools and Confucianism. But why did he look so familiar with the scene in front of him? It seems that when the time for reviewing the third year of high school is tight in later generations, the political teacher and the math teacher are fighting over the attribution of an evening self-study.

However, it is good to have some competition, but Gongxi Chiliu is wrong about one thing. Zhao Wuxi can let Confucian disciples teach knowledge, but he cannot spread ideas too much, because the purpose of training disciples in the official school is obvious, and they all want to learn and excel. Zeshi, go to the world and use it!

It is precisely because of this that Zhao Wuxi involuntarily took up the post of the great sacrificial wine in charge of education. Regardless of Confucianism, mathematics, or medicine, if they want to develop and grow, they should go to private schools and academics by themselves. Ride the mountain.

Seeing that the debate is about to become hands-on, he will always put himself in the position of the arbiter in academic disputes. Wu Xie, who does not end up arguing in person, knocked on the case and said slowly: "The time for mathematics must not be cut. , Shu and archery can't be reduced either. This is the end of the matter, and ritual can be practiced in ordinary life, and there is no need to take up special time, because I want students from the official school..."

There was a playful smile on the corner of his mouth: "I hope they can fully develop their morals, intelligence, physique, and beauty."

...

"A comprehensive exhibition of moral, intellectual, physical and beauty? Zigong, do you know what this means?"

With the opening of Punan, Zigong will also take a boat trip to Yuncheng from time to time, and even participate in the construction and economic planning of the wharf.

He is the most respected and most meritorious person among the disciples of Confucius today, so Gongxi rushed to ask for advice.

Zigong was born in a merchant, and he is very kind to mathematics. Now he is very skilled in abacus and Zhou Bi, and he is almost catching up with Jiqiao, but out of respect for Confucius, I am embarrassed to say that it is better to learn more arithmetic. Kong Xue Li Le used this sentence, he took a sip of the warm soup and said, "Actually, it means literally, it's not hard to guess."

"Virtue is morality, learning rituals and music can cultivate one's morality; wisdom is wisdom, and solving math problems can best consider wisdom; body is physical, a gentleman must practice archery, and in his spare time, he plays Cuju, a martial arts master, and the prince of Gancheng. Enlisted to fight? A little older can teach horseback riding..."

Gong Xichi muttered: "Actually, in my opinion, it is better to drive by car. Jin people live between Rong and Di people, and they have learned the habit of Di people riding horses and crossing Qian, and Si Kou is good everywhere else. Suspect..."

Zigong shook his head: "I can't suggest this lightly anymore, you don't know, the reason why Si Kou was valued by the Zhao clan was because of a single hunting on horseback, and since then the Zhao clan has repeatedly made extraordinary achievements in light riding. Some time ago, Di Qian, who let the older students go on horseback and shoot arrows, wears clothes that are convenient for activities, did attract a lot of protests..."

Not only is it not small, it is simply a group to resist. Many Confucian disciples and local clans believe that "China's Rongyi, the people of the five directions. All have **** and cannot be changed", and refused to let their family members practice horseback and archery.

Zhao Wuxi doesn't expect those teenagers who only have one day of riding lessons a month to be able to ride and shoot, but the general trend in the future is that riding alone will be widely used in the military. Will you have to find them a car by then? But I didn't expect it to get such a big reaction. Feelings like these people from the country of Lu think it's okay for Jin people to wear clothes, but when it comes to themselves, they can't do it? Lu's ethos is much more conservative than Jin's.

He immediately remembered the lesson of the later Zhao Wuling King Hu Fu's riding and shooting, and he did not dare to neglect, and immediately announced:

"I'm wearing a short jacket with narrow sleeves. It's a no-brainer to wear a jacket on the bottom. It's more convenient for hunting and fighting. The cavalry comes like a bird and goes like a string, and no one can match it. I take this kind of army to the battlefield. Talents are invincible. This is the master's skill in order to control them, but the nobles still wear Chinese clothes in normal times, and they will never change!"

This made the opposition a lot less, and people's hearts were calmed down.

Zigong felt that many of the enemies of Confucius were now serving in the Zhao clan. Such as Robber Zhi, such as Deng Yi, a famous man of law, Master and Zhao Wuxi also have some conflicts that are difficult to reconcile. At this sensitive moment, their every move is very passive. At this time, they can not cause trouble.

He continued to explain: "As for beauty, the first class of the students who entered the school was taught by the Master. All of them are from China. China has the beauty of clothing and regulations, which is called Hua; it has great etiquette, so it is called Xia. The so-called moral, intellectual and physical beauty. Today's wanderers, even if only one of them can be a retainer, Si Kou really wants a lot..."

...

Xiang Lu, a playful boy, was just within the age of school, and Wu Xie didn't pay much attention to his dropout status before: Gongshu Class was learning crafts from his father in the workshop. Xiang Lu lazily felt that his level was far from what a primary school master could teach, so it would be better to save Shuxiu and find a scholar to follow in a few years.

But the good days were soon over. Ever since the meeting in Lonely Garden, Zhao Wuxi fell in love with him, and could not help but arrange to be admitted to a government-run school. These "school disciples" all have rosters in the Yuncheng government treasury. The Master can not only command them at any time, but also beat them. Of course, for these students, Zhao Wuxi also has some preferential treatment, which can exempt them from taxes.

Isn't Xiang Lu known as a child prodigy? Then you must pass all the four items of the Book of Rites and Music! The child prodigy died so early, and Wu Xian hoped that he could exercise more and exercise his skinny physique, and he might be a pillar in the future.

Classes in the school are not as frequent as later generations, ten days a month, and the next day off, but Xiang Yu felt bored. If he hadn't been able to draw a bow or mount a horse, he would have long ago shown his true character as a child prodigy, humiliated the master and forced his graduation to run away.

But this day is also interesting once in a while. On this day, the Master showed them a book as if showing off a family heirloom. It was not a bamboo book or a precious silk book, but a paper book!

"The Three Character Classic?"

Gongshu Ban’s home is in the papermaking workshop, and Xiang Lu often runs over to play when he has nothing to do. Although the core part cannot be aggressive, he is clear about it. Although bamboo paper is still in trial production, rattan paper, which is of higher quality than public paper, but has not increased in price, has already been produced. With the promotion of price reduction of inferior paper, new things such as paper books have also begun to appear, but they are relatively rare.

The disciples of the school were immediately assigned their homework, followed the Master to recite the "Three Character Classic", and copied it. After knowing all the characters on it, and being able to explain the meaning, they passed the test and could continue to study the "Poems" and "Books". .

"Do you want to use this book to teach us how to read?" A local clan child in Yuncheng is semi-illiterate. He can only write his family name and name, biting the tip of a brush and frowning.

Xiang Lu recited silently: "That's right, Si Kou uses three characters as an interval to include ancient and modern classics and history, rituals and music, medicine, and common sense. For example, in this paragraph, teaching is lax, teachers are lazy, children do not learn, and they are not appropriate. , is used to persuade learning. This paragraph of Xia Youyu, Shang Youtang, Zhou Wenwu, called the Three Kings, Xia Chuanzi, and Jiatianxia is about the history of the classics. Rice, liangshu, wheat millet, these six grains, what people eat, horses Cattle, sheep, chickens, dogs, and hogs are all about five grains and six animals. Everything is catchy and concise, and it is perfect for children in their teens to study."

He always speaks old-fashioned, as if he were twenty, not ten.

It is too early to print this kind of thing. Anyway, many books in the Spring and Autumn Period have only tens of thousands of words, and it is not difficult to copy them by hand. Therefore, they have the magically revised manuscript "Three Character Classic" in front of them. It took a lot of time to recall and screen them without shirts. If they really can't think of it, they can only be original.

So Xiao Xianglu still saw something wrong, he muttered to himself: "Why do you feel like there are a few lines missing in the middle of a few sentences?"

...

After completing the transportation of salt and grain, after the delivery of the spring income and expenditure. Zigong asked carefully: "Zongzhou's Chinese studies are divided into primary schools and universities. I wonder if there is a university in Sikou's school for nurturing talents?"

Wu Xie glanced at him, Zigong, the Dao of Nature, is a disciple of Confucius in the force, of course, this sentence is not a casual question.

But he hoped that Zigong could be in business. Don't mix in the muddy water, so he smiled and said: "No, it is the so-called ten years of trees, a hundred years of people, education is the slowest effect. Looking at Xilu, the village school in the early years basically existed in name only, so We can only start from the most basic, wait three or five years, and cultivate a group of young people before talking about other things.”

In fact, Zhao Wuxi didn't say everything. Under the plan of him and Zhang Mengtan, the university must be established. Because the purpose of the official study is very clear, the disciples are to become officials in the future, and there is no private study mixed with so many ideals and academics. But just relying on the basic knowledge taught in elementary schools can only train low-level local officials. But there can be no higher-level talents.

Therefore, in his vision: "The sons of Chinese people enter elementary school at the age of ten and study four subjects. Those who are better than cavalry and archery and five soldiers can enter the black clothes at the age of fifteen, and those who do not want to join the army study at the university at the age of fifteen, and are called handsome men. Those who are really talented can become officials, and those who perform well will be converted from officials to officials.”

During the Spring and Autumn Period, officials and officials were not as distinct as later generations, and Confucius went from a small local official to a big Zongbo and a middle doctor, and this is the same process.

This is modeled on the recommendation system that had already taken shape in Zongzhou, but. After layers of screening, the Chinese children who can really enter the university are a minority after all, but they are also an important weapon to break the blood and patriarchal hereditary together with the rise of scholars! Moreover, Zhao Wuxi planned to let the division of the civil and military generals come earlier. After all, with the development, professional bureaucrats are needed, and it is easy to create a courtier like Liuqing.

The disciples in the university are divided into two parts, those who have graduated from elementary school, or those who are truly talented. In terms of subjects, Zhao Wuxi still focuses on practical application. They think that they can learn to live within their means, draft documents, litigation, laws, etc. Of course, ideological and political education cannot stop.

But the problem is that Xilu's law has a huge loophole and is too simple. He still wants to ask Zhao Yang to come here with Deng Xi, who is good at formulating laws.

This is also the reason why he doesn't tell Zigong about this now. People from Confucius are very hostile to Deng Yi...

Due to the limited time and money, the official school is temporarily only open to the children of Chinese and military officials, but the commoners, savages and even rogues are not without room for improvement.

Zhao Wuxi has always believed in the saying that society is the best university.

Therefore, there are also three special "schools" such as agriculture, engineering, and medicine, all of which have specialties and belong to a different system from the official school.

"Study and become an official!" This is a slogan that has excited countless people, and this ratio is much larger than that of later generations' inspection and imperial examinations. Zhao Wuxi also vowed that one day, he must be taught without discrimination. ! Although that may be something that will be available decades later.

As for the orphaned girls whom the concubine Bo Mi took care of, although they practiced weaving and housekeeping, and the wise ones could even teach the book of rites and music, but Zhao Wuxi, in order to avoid provoking the ancients, did not set up a girls' school for the time being.

By the way, there is also the "orphan of Yulin" who was adopted by Zhao Wuxi.

The fifty-odd teenagers in the Lonely Garden have been gathered together to teach the five soldiers cavalry and archery. Zhao Wuxi hopes that in five years, or even ten years, they will grow into the Yulin Iron Army!

...

Putting away his longing for the future, Zhao Wuxi asked Zigong again: "I heard that Liu Xiazhi caused a great storm on the river, and even Chen's big ship transporting copper and tin was robbed and transported 500 catties. Bronze is coming to Xilu, do you know when it will arrive?"

Zigong was startled, and pondered for a moment.

Thief Zhi is also a lump in Zigong's heart. Confucius disciples will not forgive this person, but he is a smart person, so he can endure working with him. And I have to admit that Robber Zhi contributed a lot in helping Xilu fight back against Qi's colonial war.

As for whether private plundering is too much... The war is not over yet, not to mention that the people of Qi banned salt first, so he and Zhao Wuxi were just a reasonable counterattack. As for those businessmen who were affected, it was only because they were unlucky. He Duanmu Ci was able to promote the beauty of people, but he could not hide the evil of others.

So Zigong said: "From Dahe to Taoqiu, you have to walk 6 roads~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and then you can go down the river. It should be a matter of the past few days."

Originally, in the two drums of bronze, Robber Zhi could divide 30% by himself, but he was very smart and sent his share back to Zhao Wuxi to distribute it. Compensate him.

Zhao Wuxi was also thinking about it, if it was transported back 60%, it would be as much as 600 catties. What would it be used for? Casting Dinggui and other ritual vessels? Is he not that stupid, or has he minted more than 100,000 new coins that have been brewing for a long time? After all, the shell coins of the state of Lu are becoming more and more unpleasant to his eyes, and the most popular Qi Dao in Xilu is the currency of the enemy country, so he has to let the state of Qi start to play advanced economic sanctions at any time and kill them severely.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a notification sound from outside, and then Yu Xi walked in hastily.

"What happened?"

"Si Kou, there is news from Wei Guo that Liu Xiazhi has engaged with the Chen's fleet on the big river!"
