Chapter 450 Running a school
Chapter 450: Running a school
The bait thrown out the school plan and caused storms to the inside and outside. Yang Jingwei has already made an important piece of chess game at the end of the year.
The snow has stopped these days, and the weather has responded a little.
Yang Jing got up early and was very refreshed. Recently, the school plan has successfully attracted everyone's attention. Whether it is for power, money or reputation, many famous people heard that it was such a major event of promoting saints and promoting saints, so they happily joined Lin Qin's "school plan group" in hopes that they would leave their name on this cultural event.
Lin Qin instantly became the most dazzling "star" in the court and the country, and the school plan also became a must-have topic of conversation for the government and the country.
"Big partner, what important things are there today?" Yang Jingwei was in a good spirit. He dressed in the Ganqing Palace and was preparing to go to court. Taking advantage of the gap, he warmed up the contents of today's morning court.
"Your Majesty, in addition to discussing the achievements of the war in the north, the most important thing about the officials was to submit memorials. The remarks about running schools have now become the focus of discussions in the court and the public... These memorials are all about running schools. Because there are too many, I specially picked them out..." Wang Chengen said with a narrow smile. After saying that, he also pointed to a big basket next to him. Wang Chengen knew that this was the smoke made by the emperor. Seeing so many people "be deceived" and crazy about it, he naturally had a different feeling from the perspective of an "observer", the matter of turning hands into clouds and turning hands into rain, probably this is the case. This is just the beginning...
Yang Jie followed Wang Chengen's pointing and noticed that there was a large basket on the side, all of which were piled with memorials, one by one.
Yang Jing laughed secretly. It seems that no one can escape fame and fortune! If you leave such a famous thing for a lifetime, you must naturally be involved in it. You have taken the right step.
"What's the plan for Lin Qiong?" Yang Jing turned around and continued to let the eunuchs serve and wear them, asking.
"Go back to Your Majesty, Lord Lin, now the plan has only started and established a general outline..." Such "shocking" things in the court and the public naturally have constant attention. When Wang Chengen saw the emperor's problem, he immediately told the progress.
"Hahaha..." Yang Jing smiled for a while and said nothing.
...
Taihe Gate.
This is the first time since it snowed this year, the court officials have also come in very neatly.
"Long live my emperor..." The court officials shouted long live, which made Yang Jie, who was very energetic, feel even more happy. Why are there so many people today? Haven't experienced this feeling for many days, and I'm a little unfamiliar, or are there really more people coming?
"All the families of all the ministers should be calm." Yang Jingying shouted.
"Thank you for your kindness." The court officials then stood up.
The following content, according to "convention", is time for singing, and the little eunuch is about to lead the singing. Yang Jing waved his hand, and Wang Chengen quickly stopped the eunuch who led the singing.
"Today, I won't listen to you singing "Song of Righteousness". All the families of you are knowledgeable. I believe you still remember the words of the saints about the world's harmony. Today I want to listen to the saints's part about the world's harmony in the Book of Rites. Liyun. From the journey of the great way, the world is the public... until it is called Datong... Today, you can sing this..." Yang Jing's voice was immediately rippling in the Taihe Gate.
Anyone who can submit memorials has been reported. What is it? They are all schools, and all those who can come have come. Therefore, there are many people. There are already many officials outside Taihe Gate, and after listening to the emperor's words, they all started to talk.
The emperor wanted to listen to the passage of the saints' remarks on the world's harmony in the Book of Rites. None of the officials who could attend court had read these Confucian classics and had good content in their stomachs. Naturally, they knew that the emperor was talking about. Why did he listen to this passage? All the ministers also understood in their hearts, probably because it was related to Lin Qiong's school. All the ministers looked around them and understood in their hearts that most of them were for that matter. It seemed that the emperor had agreed to that matter, so there seemed to be no need to argue whether to do this matter or not. So what was left was, and who did this matter, and the officials' thoughts immediately turned.
After a while, Wang Chengen signaled the eunuch to start leading the singing.
"In the way of the great way, the world is the public, choose the wise and capable, and be faithful and harmonious. The old friends do not only have their relatives, but also have their sons..." The little eunuch began to start in a tender tone and sang in a high voice. Gradually, the ministers also sang along with the harmony. In this Taihe Sect, the sages about the world's harmony were sung more loudly.
Yang Jing nodded uncontrollably. This was a good effect. Everyone said they wanted to ***. Some ministers chanted and shook their heads with the rhythm. It seemed that the effect was still very good. In this moment, they used the saint's remarks to set the tone of today's discussion. In the peaceful era of ancient China, it was okay to oppose anyone, just don't oppose the saint, the next thing would be easier. This saint is indeed a good sign!
After singing, the whole Taihemen returned to peace! Yang Jie only then began to discuss matters.
"Is there anything I have to report to you today?" Yang Jingwei asked.
"Report to Your Majesty, I have something to report." Shi Fenglai stood up first.
"What's the matter?" Yang Jingwei said.
"Report to Your Majesty, this year our court has defeated the Eastern Captains outside the pass. As your Majesty's orders, I have agreed on the achievements of the relevant people and others. Please allow your Majesty to approve it." Shi Fenglai said this first.
"I'll give you my family a glimpse of what rewards all those people should receive." Yang Jingwei said. In fact, this matter has been discussed long ago. Here, it is just a formality. Although it is a formality, it is also very important. Sometimes, it may be unreliable.
"Abide by the order!" Shi Fenglai agreed, then opened the reward book and started to recite.
"...The Prince Taibao, the left governor, the chief officer and soldier of Dongjiang Town, Mao Wenlong was promoted to the title of Guanglu doctor of the Zhuguo Kingdom, the Prince Taifu, and the title of "The First One" was Mao Wenlong. As the first achievement of this battle in the north, there is naturally no doubt that promotion is necessary. However, the title of Mao Wenlong has been almost the top, and he is already the Prince Taibao. If you go up, you will be the title of "Imperial Master" level of Shaobao. Obviously, it is not possible. The title of the Emperor's Master is for the dead, and it is definitely not possible to give to the living. Even now, the title of the Emperor's Master is for the dead.
In the emperor's "Emperor's Master", he only called the Master, and did not really add the titles of Shao Guard. Or they were awarded titles. The ministers almost agreed that it was inappropriate. Before the Eastern Barbarians were destroyed, how could they be granted a title? Therefore, Mao Wenlong's Prince Taibao became the Prince Taifu, which the cabinet had always agreed. The official positions of the Prince Taifu and the Prince Taifu were the same high, but they were only slightly different in rankings. Therefore, it was used to excuse Mao Wenlong, at least it was considered an promotion. However, the reward of silver was quite generous, tens of thousands of taels of silver.
Officials at all levels below Mao Wenlong all rewards. Shi Feng came to recite some of them, but they stopped reciting them. There were too many. Even Yuan Chonghuan, who had not moved one soldier, also received rewards.
No one said anything against this kind of thing that had been discussed long ago, but no one said anything against it. First, it had been discussed long ago, and there was something wrong with it. Second, there were more important things to discuss. If you always worry about this matter, what should you do if you do the next thing? So no one came out to pick on it. The reward list passed like this.
"Well, it's true. Those who have made contributions to the Ming Dynasty must receive rewards. Let's handle it." Yang Jing said, even if this matter came to an end.
"But there is something to report?" Yang Jingai asked again.
"Report to Your Majesty, I have something to report." A minister immediately came out and said loudly.
"Oh, what's the matter?" Yang Jingang asked.
"Report to Your Majesty, recently, it has been rumored in the capital that the Imperial College Priest Lin Zhenlin is drawing up a plan for our dynasty for decades or even hundreds of years. I think that Lord Lin is more suspicious about this move. This matter is not something that can be discussed by a mere Imperial College Priest, nor can it be concluded by a mere Imperial College Priest..." A minister opened fire on Lin Zhen with great force, skipping whether to run a school or not, and directly going to run a school. Judging from the morning court's posture, it seems that there is no need to discuss whether to run a school or not. Who dares to say no? He won't even call the court?
Yang Jing smiled. The firepower was too strong. The piece of meat he threw out was too fat. This guy didn't think about it. Lin Qiong was an honest man. If no one supported him, he would have eaten and done such a big thing? Perhaps it was really fascinating to fame and fortune.
"Do you guys have different opinions?" Yang Jing did not draw a conclusion easily, and this was far from the point where he was on the court.
The people of the Imperial Party did not speak out. The emperor's attitude towards this matter was very ambiguous. He didn't say it was OK or he didn't say it was not OK. Then let's not talk, it depends on the situation.
So, after a little wait, someone took the conversation.
"I think this is inappropriate. The Imperial College is also a little Jiuqing, why can't I discuss this? What's more, the Imperial College is a holy place for cultivating talents for the court, why can't I discuss education? I think that Lord Lin is right and properly discussing this. Lord Lin seeks welfare for the people of the world and develops for sages. He is a model for all officials. We should follow the example of Lord Lin..." A man immediately came out to stand up for Lin Qin.
"Report to Your Majesty, I think Lord Lin did it right and made sense..."
"Your Majesty, I also think that Lord Lin's move has undoubtedly created a hundred years of creation. No, the peak of saints over the past thousand years. If we can really achieve what Lin Dan said, then the harmony of the world as the saint said will appear in my Ming Dynasty. This is a great blessing for the world and my great blessing for the Ming Dynasty..."
Yang Jing smiled but said nothing. It seemed that Lin Qiong's plan really attracted a group of people. Otherwise, it would be interesting to talk to him more.
"Your Majesty, I think that Lord Lin has a good heart, and is a plan for the people of the world, and a saint, all these should be done. But I think that this matter is too serious. It is not appropriate to just rely on Lord Lin to organize discussions on this matter. Your Majesty, I think that this matter should be handed over to the cabinet or court officials to show their importance to the matter..." Another minister was not vague. Such great contributions were obviously unwilling to give wine to a fourth-rank Imperial College for free, so he proposed to hand over the right to discuss this matter to the cabinet or the entire court for discussion. This contribution naturally had to be taken over. This is comparable to another big fatty miser after the disaster relief, and it is even more "fatty" than disaster relief. This job has gained a reputation, a huge reputation, and a "fatty miser" that has been famous for thousands of years.
"I am guilty, and I am guilty. Please punish Your Majesty." The minister who was outspoken just now apologized immediately. Although everyone knows that this matter is all about the emperor paying the silver, it is also willing to pay it! There is no such thing as forcing the emperor to pay the silver.
"Hahaha..., can the Ministry of Revenue be there?" Yang Gui didn't say anything to this guy, and asked the Ministry of Revenue directly.
"I am here." Bi Ziyan immediately came out and answered.
"Since you pay the money and belong to the Ministry of Revenue and the governments of various places, I ask you, how much money can the Ministry of Revenue spend to run a school now?" Yang Jingwei asked.
"Reply to Your Majesty, the Ministry of Revenue has finally calmed down the debts of previous years this year, and there are still tens of thousands of taels of silver left." Bi Ziyan replied. Of course, he didn't finish it. The tens of thousands of taels of silver still had to be paid for the holiday expenses.
Bi Ziyan's words were like a basin of cold water pouring on everyone's heads. It turned out that the Ministry of Revenue could afford tens of thousands of taels of silver. Want to make that plan even if it was tens of thousands of taels of silver? Just kidding.
"..., but if you move a little, you may be able to move some money next year, about 400,000 taels." Bi Ziyan replied again.
The fire that everyone was extinguished was still a little bit, and forty or five hundred thousand taels of silver was also a large sum of silver. However, it would be a fraction of the money to realize Lin Qiong's plan.
"Will Lin Qie, the Imperial College Priest? " Yang Jie asked.
"I'm here." Lin Qiong, who had been watching others discussing his own affairs, immediately replied. Just now, he had been observing the actions in the court, watching the emperor and the ministers play "hide and seek". This was done by the emperor "instructed" him, but the emperor pretended not to know now...
"I don't know what time Lin Aiqing's plan has reached, but I want to ask how much money does it cost to achieve the world's harmony planned by Lin Aiqing so that all children can read and read?" Yang Jingwei asked.
"When you go back to Your Majesty, maybe tens of millions of taels a year are unknown..." Lin Qiong answered honestly.
Tens of millions of taels of silver? Although the court officials were mentally prepared, they still exclaimed.
"Haha, this is a considerable sum of money!" Yang Jingang sighed.
"......Reply to Your Majesty, you may not be able to use that much money. I have calculated that if you can get tens of millions of taels of silver, you can do this matter. Although it is not a complete achievement, it is also an event that has not been seen in a thousand years." Lin Qiong said again.
"In other words, at least tens of millions of taels of silver is needed? This matter is only slightly effective?" Yang Jingwei said.
"Your Majesty, yes, but this matter is unprecedented. It is really huge. Once implemented, it needs to be strengthened in steps and year by year. Otherwise, problems are very likely to occur. Therefore, in fact, in the first few years, millions of taels of silver were enough. After finding a suitable solution, it will be necessary to advance year by year. At this time, more silver is needed." Lin Qiong said again.
