Chapter 227 Spring wind and rain
The 14th year of Fengle is just an ordinary year for most people, but for Jiang Anyi, this year is a year of harvest and a year of joy.
Just after the Lantern Festival, the county government notice was posted to all townships and villages. Because of the greetings and meetings in advance, the people of Fuluo County had already known that the Jiang County Magistrate wanted to implement the policy of "tax-to-one" policy. After several months of digestion and discussion, the formal notice became calm.
It is said that before the government order is introduced, the fields must be cleared and the land level must be redied, but Jiang Anyi deliberately missed this step. First, it is difficult to clean up the accumulation in a short time, and it is necessary to clarify it, which delays the implementation of "tax-to-one"; second, Fuluo County is mountains, and ordinary people are allocated to the mountains to fill the fields. Originally, they suffered a great loss, but now Qingwu Tea is elegant. After taking a sip of tea, Jiang Huang said with a smile: "Master, my son Anyi thanks to the master's support and helping me, and I am grateful. This time, I am willing to donate a jade Buddha."
Jiang Huang believed in Buddhism and worshipped the jade Buddha in his Buddhist temple. Jiang Anyi bought it for 3,000 taels of silver when he was in Huazhou. It was about a foot high and was warm and transparent. It was a rare treasure. When he came to Huangyang Mountain this time, he saw that the temple was not complete. Jiang Huang thought of the little life in Dong'er's belly, and wanted to pray for his unborn grandson, so he wanted to invite the jade Buddha in the Buddhist temple.
Master Hong Xin knew what Jiang Huang thought and said calmly: "Why do you need to use precious treasures when you worship Buddha devoutly? The Buddhists have precious treasures, which is not a good thing. The old lady thanked me for her beautiful wishes."
Jiang Anyi interrupted, "Since the master is not worried about ordinary things, the Jiang family is willing to ask someone to dig out a statue of the Buddha on the stone walls of the mountain for people to worship."
There is a stone cliff halfway up the mountain in Huangyang Mountain, which is six feet high and three feet wide. It is hard and is just right to carve a Buddha statue. Master Hong Xin looked at Jiang Anyi with praise and said, "Jiang Tanyue is worthy of being a man of wisdom. This is a great thing. You might as well visit the craftsman for me first. I remember that there are Buddhas incarnations in Mingpu Temple. I wrote a letter to ask the temple for me to pick them up. I will discuss with the craftsman if I mow the carvings at that time."
The cliff carving Buddha is a grand ceremony. The stone Buddha still exists a thousand years later. It is a supreme merit for anyone. Even if Master Hong Xin practices until his mind has no external objects, he can't help but be happy.
Jiang Anyi came to Huangyang Mountain with another thing, that is, to start building academy. Compared with the exciting and colorful temples, the academy has not yet broken ground. From Jiang Anyi's heart, the construction of Buddhist temples is mainly for repaying kindness and creating a grand scene for Fuluo County, and the academy is even more willing to create with his heart.
A few years ago, he wrote two letters, one for Deng Shanchang, and asked him to come to Huangyang Academy to teach, and the other for his teacher Fan Yanzhong, who invited his teacher to Fuluo County to relax. After Fan Yanzhong retired, he wrote the book "Yunshuitan Talk", and taught him the top scholar who was ranked three years old, which made him famous in the scholars. No one could match his literary world. People were happy when they were happy. From the letters from the old man, Jiang Anyi knew that he was getting stronger now, and he was very quiet and thoughtful, and wanted to take a look around.
On the tenth day of the first lunar month, Jiang Anyi received a letter from Chief Deng Shan. Chief praised him for his assistance in his studies and strongly supported Jiang Anyi's preparation for building academy to come to give lectures. He promised to bring the academy's teacher to teach in March. At that time, Mr. Su Ziming and Mr. Ling Xuling may stay at Huangyang Academy. There may be more than 20 students close to Lizhou with him. They intend to study at the newly built Huangyang Academy.
Jiang Anyi was happy and worried when he got the faith. What he was happy was that he could do his best for poor students, not only realized Deng Shanchang's wishes, but also established reputation among the scholars, killing two birds with one stone. What he was worried about was that he had created his own momentum, and Huangyang Academy was still in its infancy. What if Deng Shanchang led his people to come?
It is urgent to wait, after returning to Fuluo County, Jiang Anyi started to build Huangyang Academy. The environment of the academy is excellent, and it is far from the downtown area, so it is just right to study quietly. There are some buildings on the mountain that can be used as teachers, and students' residences, and even the Dintang is ready-made. After the field investigation, Jiang Anyi's current academy lacks large lecture halls and stashes. The lectures of Zechang Academy impressed Jiang Anyi deeply. Huangyang Academy cannot be compared with the hundreds of years of heritage of Zechang Academy, but a school is necessary.
There is a large piece of flat land at the foot of the mountain, which was originally a place for training troops. Jiang Anyi decided to build the school here. After learning that Deng Shanchang would come to Huangyang Academy to give lectures in March, governor Zhao gave strong support to people, money and property. Huangyang Academy was completed first, but it was actually completed before the completion of Huangyang Temple in early March.
Jiang Anyi accompanied the governor Zhao to inspect the newly built Huangyang Academy. He walked slowly up the stone steps, and the green tiles and white walls appeared among the trees. Zhao praised: "What a quiet place to study. Seeing this scene, Zhao wished he could get rid of the worldly affairs and read in the mountains. He had time to have fun and enjoy tea and practice Zen with Master Hongxin. How free and easy."
Jiang Anyi naturally would not take this sigh seriously, but he still had to flatter him. Jiang Anyi smiled and said, "The great man is responsible for the emperor's kindness, and the herdsmen in the world will probably not have such leisure. In the future, the great man will become the prime minister. All the people in the world will think of the kindness of the great man who sacrifices his ego for the country and the people."
Zhao Jinglun laughed happily after saying something, "An Yi, I will lend you auspicious words to you and I will encourage you."
The lecture hall is a moustache courtyard with a width of seven rooms and five deep. The largest room can accommodate more than 300 people to attend classes. The courtyard in the middle is larger, and you can stand at six or seven hundred people. The corridor with a zigzag shape adopts the style of Zechang Academy, with black railings and red pillars, which looks solemn and generous.
Standing on the top of the mountain, looking down at the academy under the hillside, Zhao Shulun was very satisfied with the structure of the academy and smiled and said, "The fertile fields have been placed and are waiting to be harvested." This harvest refers to the harvest of the scholars, and also refers to the harvest of the school he has worked hard to help run the school. No matter which, Zhao Shulun is looking forward to it.
On March 20, Chief Deng Shan led Mr. Su and Mr. Ling to Jingyang Prefecture to give lectures at Huangyang Academy in Fuluo County. Of course, he had to obtain the support of the governor of the state. Although Chief Deng Shan was only the chief of Zechang Academy and a fifth-rank court official, his reputation in the sect was far beyond the reach of Zhao Shulun. Zhao Shulun dared not put on airs and welcomed him into the government office, held a banquet for entertaining him, and then accompanied him to Huangyang Academy in person, and sent someone to inform Jiang Anyi to go there.
On March 25, Jiang Anyi met Deng Shanchang in Huangyang Academy. After not seeing each other for a few years, Deng Shanchang was still in style. Mr. Su and Mr. Ling enthusiastically treated Jiang Anyi. The two of them intended to stay in Huangyang Academy to teach. Mr. Su served as the chief of the mountain and Mr. Ling taught. The other personnel were originally appointed by Jiang Anyi. As a result, the governor Zhao enthusiastically took over the power of Huangyang Academy to the government office. Jiang Anyi naturally could not compete with him.
On March 26, Mr. Su started his lecture on "Shuer Chapter". Nearly 200 scholars from all over the country who rushed to hear the news listened to his lecture. Compared with what he learned in the county school, Mr. Su's discussion was thorough and clear, which made people suddenly understand. After listening to it, Jiang Anyi felt that he benefited a lot.
The next day, Mr. Ling talked about "The Book of Music". After a night, more than a hundred people came to listen to the lecture. Everyone sat cross-legged in the courtyard of the academy and listened to Mr. Ling talking enthusiastically. When it came to the rise, Mr. Ling also asked someone to take the guqin and improvise a song "Cleaning of the Clear Spring". The sound of the piano was clear, the ice spring was condensed, the spring breeze turned into rain, and the spring water was ding, and everyone's hearts were flowing happily.
On the third day, Deng Shanchang started his lecture on "The Sacrifice" and the audience reached 500. The scholars in Lizhou spread all over the world. The head of Zechang Academy came to Huangyang Mountain Village to teach, and he could not lose his chances and never come again. Some scholars from other states even came hard after hearing the news.
Chapter completed!
