Three Kingdoms

Chapter 630 Bullshit

Fei Qian looked at Yu Fuluo's retreating figure, and then returned to the hall. The anger was about to break out, and the etiquette must be in place. Fei Qian sometimes feels like a farmer. Before the crops sprout, he always worries about gains and losses. Then he has to water the seedlings from time to time to prevent the seedlings from dying. Now I have said enough to Yu Fuluo. You know It's not enough, it's just that I don't know when it will take Yufuluo to finally see the effect.

Xu Shu, who was waiting outside, saw that the meeting between Fei Qian and Yu Fuluo had ended, so he entered the hall, greeted Fei Qian, and then took out a small roll of bamboo slips from his sleeve and said, "This is a subject of the academy. Please take a look at it, Zhonglang."

Fei Qian took it and took a look, feeling slightly disappointed. The subjects of the academy mentioned by Xu Shu on the bamboo slips are completely divided according to the Six Arts of the Gentleman. Although there is no big problem, it cannot be refined. It basically follows the model of the Imperial Academy before Luoyang.

Fei Qian put the bamboo slips on the table, pondered for a while, and asked: "Yuan Zhi, do you still remember how you started to read?"

Xu Shu lowered his head slightly and said: "My mother taught me at first... Later, because I had no books to read, I became a little dissolute until I met Mr. Shui Jing. Then I arrived in Jingxiang and was lucky enough to meet Pang Degong and Zhonglang..." Wan also deliberately handed over to Fei Qiangong.

Fei Qian waved his hand, indicating that what he did was nothing, and then said: "Has Yuan Zhi ever thought about how someone would study if their parents are illiterate?"

Xu Shu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly straightened up, almost standing up, looking at Fei Qian with wide eyes, a look of astonishment on his face: "Zhonglang! This matter..."

Fei Qian did not look at Xu Shu, but turned his gaze to the outside of the hall, and said slowly: "I once had a dream. In the dream, as long as you are ignorant and start talking, you can go to the hall to study. Someone told you These crude writings do not matter who your parents are or where you are from..."

Xu Shu's mouth opened wide in surprise, and his eyes widened. The burly figure of him made such an expression. It is estimated that eight out of ten people would be furious, "This...this...may be difficult..."

Fei Qian nodded slightly and said nothing.

Yes, from this perspective, compulsory education in later generations is simply a project that is absolutely beneficial to the people...

In ancient times, why was the importance of family so emphasized and everyone subconsciously safeguarded the interests of the family? The reason is very simple. Even if you unfortunately die young, as long as the family is still there, your children will most likely be cared for by your brothers, sisters, etc. in the family, and the cultural inheritance will not be cut off immediately. Although this inheritance There must be a limit, but no matter what, it is thousands of times better than becoming an illiterate farmer.

Although there are many problems in the education system of later generations, and there are also people who are fooling around, it is undeniable that the state, through administrative means, has generally ensured that every child has an opportunity to understand the world and opened up a new world for every child. door...

Of course, how far you can go and how well you can go, in addition to the child's own efforts, there must be other factors involved, and sometimes these other factors are even more important than the child's own talent. Even from another perspective, with the development of society and the refinement of division of labor and cooperation, productivity requirements must ensure that most grassroots workers have certain knowledge, so as to better provide for the development of social productivity and the generation of social surplus value...

But no matter what, they are happier than the children of the lower class people in the Han Dynasty, and they are better than always facing the earth with their backs to the sky, and not knowing what went wrong even if they were bullied.

Fei Qian said: "Yuanzhi, you probably also know that I have promoted a group of people above the music level in the army to learn some basic words and numbers, right?"

Xu Shu was silent for a while, and then said: "Zhonglang, there is a difference between the two after all... This matter is closely related..."

Now the soldiers of the Han Dynasty are, in a sense, the private soldiers of the princes. They receive the military pay given by the princes and eat the food and grass provided by the princes. Therefore, they give their soldiers some tricks and expand their intelligence. Even if some people don't think so. , and may even feel that it is unnecessary, but they will not have too many opinions because of this. It is like the CEO of a large company in later generations suddenly paid for all the company security guards to sign up for university MBA courses. Maybe some people will They would say that this boss is crazy and spend money indiscriminately, and they would also say how can those country bumpkins get such a class, but absolutely no one would stand up and rebuke this boss with righteous words and anger for corrupting the entire education system...

But if it is extended to all children, the meaning is completely different.

In later generations, some people criticized Confucius and then listed three major shortcomings, one of which was "Confucius was not involved". The Analects of Confucius was not written by Confucius himself, but by his disciple Zeng Shen. Its authenticity is unknown, and it cannot be completely said to be Confucius' literary work.

But why do so many people admire Confucius?

To get rid of those so-called ignorant people, it is actually very simple. Confucius was the first person to "teach without distinction". He was the first to break the conceptual constraints of family, origin, region, etc. As long as you are willing to learn, he is willing to teach. people.

Regardless of the words or concepts he taught, these things were almost the skills that the various levels of officials and even the princes relied on to survive and dominate the common people at that time!

Therefore, it is natural that Confucius lived in exile and had no writing.

Xu Shu looked at Fei Qian, feeling agitated but deeply worried. This matter was no small matter! Although it is admirable for Fei Qian to have such an ambition, he will definitely be attacked by all the nobles in the world!

Fei Qian looked up at the sky outside the hall and let out a long sigh. He had considered this matter and discussed it with Xu Shu as a test, but judging from Xu Shu's reaction...

"Let's set up a simple subject with a limit of 1,000 words. All meritorious families can enroll in the subject and study it. How about it?" Fei Qian withdrew his gaze, looked at Xu Shu, and said slowly. Although this will inevitably have a lot of loopholes, after all, it is a small opening first.

Sure enough, Xu Shu thought about it for a while and said, "If so, it might be possible." Having a wife and a cute child and benefiting future generations is a dream of many people. You may not be able to muster much energy to study by yourself, but facing the challenges of children's study At that time, the vast majority of people were first-class, so it could stimulate the desire of many soldiers to perform meritorious service, and the model of exchanging rewards for meritorious service was understandable.

Fei Qian nodded. Even if this matter comes to an end for the time being, take your time. If you take too big a step, you may get injured...

But how did those other time-travelers protect his eggs when they were walking so fast?

Confucius taught without distinction. Being able to make such a move was destined to be the most important reason for the prosperity of Confucianism in later generations...

Teaching is very important no matter what time it is...

It's like "no matter how hard it is, you can't hurt the child", right?

Hehe, actually you all know...

Sometimes when I look through these histories, I can’t help but reveal some familiar feelings...

This is Huaxia, still the original recipe, still the familiar taste...
