Chapter five hundred and thirty seventh title is very important
University is a new thing. In the land of China that has been blown by Confucianism for thousands of years, universities will definitely be unacceptable to the local environment when they first appear.
Leave it to others, openly and secretly, with some old academy habits, only the Tujia general in front of him would not.
First of all, he grew up in the toast's nest, never read the Four Books and Five Classics, nor went to academy;
Secondly, he is very loyal to himself. He will not be affected by the mess and will strictly follow his own ideas.
In the end, he was able to hold on to the scene, because everyone was afraid of him, which could reduce a lot of trouble.
Peng Zhuze was confused and changed from a military general to a civil servant. He turned too hard and was dizzy when he went down the mountain and almost fell to a fall.
Xiaoxiao covered her mouth and laughed secretly, saying, "Brother Peng is going to be a teacher, hehe."
With a crisp sound, and his buttocks were rippling, Hou Xuanyan laughed and scolded: "Big chests are big and brainless. What do you know? This is my power and can be said to be very powerful."
The very powerful Hou Xuanyan started to build the school after discovering the principal. The school site was selected in Suzhou, the most prosperous world. The Ministry of Works sent personnel to build the school building, and it is expected to recruit students in the autumn.
Outside Gusu City, a turquoise river passes through the city, next to the white walls and black tiles on both sides of the river, willows and poplar trees intersect.
The bright spring light shines in the river, sparkling and rippling, which is no worse than the beautiful woman in the boudoir.
As the Eastern Capital, Suzhou has all civil and military officials, especially Xia Yunyi has the highest rank. With the contribution of his two generations of father and son, Xia Yunyi has occupied one of the five founding dukes, and now he is also the governor of the eight prefectures of Jiangnan in the court.
The one who accompanied him to inspect Suzhou was a group of people from the Craftsman Pavilion, preparing to choose a site to build a school.
"'Lingbo is just Hengtang Road, but I watch the fragrance of the dust passes. Who will go to the years of the golden age? Yueqiao Flower Courtyard, the trivial windows and red houses, only the spring is known.' Many poems in Suzhou have been scattered by He Sanchou in ancient times. I feel that it is a bit extravagant when choosing a site to build a school in such a place." Xia Yunyi was not very enthusiastic about the university, and always felt that it was the product of His Majesty's take for granted.
Liu Zhihong, the chief of Suzhou Craftsman Pavilion, was dissatisfied, but he did not dare to contradict him. He said with a little toughness in his tone: "This matter was planned by Your Majesty himself, and the Duke also knew that Your Majesty's vision has always been superior to ours. Maybe after it is completed, it will be a beautiful thing that has been passed down through the ages."
Since the Di Daily reported on university, the most exciting thing is the students and teachers of the craftsman hall, who are likely to enter directly.
With His Majesty’s favor for the craftsman’s museum today, it is even possible that he will promote his teaching from it. In the face of this, craftsmen from all over the country are honored.
Xia Yunyi did not argue with him. Since this matter involves the emperor, he must be cautious in his words and actions.
Although he was a veteran of the Huiyi Army, Xia Yunyi was never ambiguous about such trivial matters. These scholars who were well-educated and well-read in history books, and several heroes of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and those of Emperor Taizu and Emperor Gao were either living and living together with each other and dying. If they were not careful, they would be destroyed.
Although the emperor treats the heroes kindly and generously today, there are no hard knives and many soft knives.
When Yang Zhan played a sing of triumphant songs from Hanzhong, he reached Datong, Shanxi. He was about to leave the pass and pacify Manchuria, but he still asked His Majesty to call Jinling for half a year to work.
Li Haoxian, Duke of Qi, who was the best in the Northern Expedition, was probably the most confidant of Your Majesty. His friendship with the emperor was profound. After the success of the Northern Expedition, he stayed in Jinling for most of his time.
As an emperor, how can you not be cautious? As a minister, you should be more careful in your words and actions, which is the way to protect yourself.
Xia Yunyi and a group of people from the Craftsman Pavilion continued to choose the site and finally settled on Shiquan Street, Suzhou.
This place has ten clear springs, so it is named. The deep courtyards and courtyards on both sides are lined up one after another. The book "The Eighteen Scenery of Canglang" records: "It is said that during the Chunxi period, there was a severe drought in the south of the Yangtze River. There were ten wells built here, and there were ten trickles and crystals. It was warm in winter and cool in summer, and it was not overflowing. So everyone was happy and the drought went away. The street was prosperous, and the spring was named because of the name of the street. The name of the Shiquan Street has spread far away."
The main reason is that there are many gardens here, which can save a lot of construction costs, and most of these gardens are publicly owned.
When the Qing Dynasty went south and Suzhou City fell, many wealthy families suffered heavy casualties, and many others who surrendered to the enemy and stolen the country and were liquidated and destroyed by Hou Xuanyan. Their gardens became public property of the court, and Shiquan Street was the place with the most buildings.
Liu Zhihong was very satisfied with the scenery here and asked happily: "Since you have decided on this street, why not report to the emperor tonight, so that you can start construction as soon as possible."
"Well, after I go back, I will write a memorial to report it. Your craftsman's house is ready and send someone to help with the construction at any time. This matter is 80% going to take the "bidding" path again. I think it will be difficult for others to compete with the Gu family."
Liu Zhihong smiled knowingly. The Gu family was rich and powerful. He was a royal relative and the source of income when His Majesty revived. As long as they took action, they would rarely fall behind. There were even rumors that the school was established in Suzhou this time was for the Gu family.
The Gu Mansion is still as luxurious as it was back then. Gu Youde held two night pearls in his hand and was having a lot of fun.
People say why I spend my time in old age? Only Go and playing the piano. Chess is a hard time playing, and the piano is tuned because of weak arms.
This sentence does not apply to Gu Youde. This guy becomes stronger and stronger as he grows older. He is so beautiful that he is energetic. He will only show fatigue when he looks at his two sons.
These two sons disappointed him too much. One is short-sighted and can make small money and cannot keep the big business; the other is a dumb and sloppy playboy.
The second brother is still a little promising and has become a high-ranking official in the six ministers of the ministers, but he is too old-fashioned or too righteous...
Gu Youde has no doubt at all. As long as the Gu family has any unforgivable crimes and is the one who takes the lead in reporting and punishing the Gu family, it must be Gu Shouzheng.
"Oh." Gu Youde sighed.
Gu Shouye was planning to build a university, and his family could Zhuang Yibi again. He couldn't help but feel happy, and they all appeared on his face. Hearing his sigh, he asked in confusion: "Dad, what's wrong?"
"You two are not good at it. I'll get upset when I see you."
Gu Shouzong's eyes were deep and his skin was sallow. He looked like he was overly drunk. After hearing his father's words, he curled his lips and said disapprovingly: "Dad, what's wrong with you? Then let us vent our anger. We deserve to be as lucky as our second brother. Your Majesty doesn't give us an official position, so he can only get in the way of your eyes at home."
"Fuck, you still want to be an official if you are like this. Your second brother passed the imperial examination at the age of 14. You can't even recognize words until now. It would be great if you can read a book and you can get half of it. Are you still an official?"
When Gu Shouye saw the third brother's appearance, he knew that he would not show up. The two of them were not finished. He quickly interrupted and said, "Three, listen carefully, Dad is also for our own good."
Gu Shouzong then shut up and lowered his head and did not speak. Seeing that he was giving in, Gu Youde's face calmed down a little and said, "Our Gu family seems to be incredible, but in fact it's only my husband and a Ling'er to support me. After I pass away, who can support this family business?"
Gu Shouye smiled, like a lucky cat, squinting his eyes and said, "Dad, with Your Majesty here, what are you afraid of? He can still treat us badly." Over the years, the more money the Gu family has accumulated, and Gu Shouye is a traditional businessman who almost instinctively loves money and feels comfortable when he sees it.
The third brother interrupted at this time, "That's right, without our Gu family, can Your Majesty conquer the country? I don't know what you are afraid of."
Gu Youde was furious and threw the night pearl in his hand directly onto his third son, making him scream in pain.
"I've said this to you so many times. You must not say such words. Even in your mind, you shouldn't have such thoughts." Gu Youde was nearly 70 years old, and when he got angry, he was still like a Vajra's eyes, very powerful, and scared the third brother to speak.
"You may kill us like this." Gu Youde said with a grudge: "We will not bid for the construction of the university this time. If we occupy our place, we will sell it to the court at the lowest price."
Gu Shouye suddenly became anxious and said hurriedly: "Why, Dad, this is a large amount of money."
"What we want to do is a wealthy family in Dahua, not the biggest local rich man. If you have nothing to do, let your wife go to the palace to see Ling'er more, and bring some medicinal food to nourish the body and get pregnant is the right thing." Gu Youde's eyes flashed and he said, "When we reach our point, money is just a tool. If you treat it as a purpose, the pattern will be too small."
One of the two sons was heartbroken, the other didn't care. Obviously, they didn't listen to his good words. Gu Youde looked at them and was angry and scolded, "Get out!"
...
------------
In the Forbidden City of Jinling, willow catkins are flying and the fragrance of flowers is everywhere. When I first moved into the palace, the flowers and plants planted by Hou Xuanyan had already blossomed and bear fruit.
The attentive little palace maid in the imperial garden brought fresh seasonal fruits into the pavilion in the middle of the lake like a flower and butterfly.
Hou Xuanyan sat in the center, and Bian Saisai was wearing a white dress, like a lotus from the water, with a natural appearance without any decoration, and it was moist and unspoken. Holding the pipa, a stream of elegant and light sounds rippled out of the lower strings.
Hou Xuanyan picked up a fruit plate with cut pieces of fruit on it. Each piece was filled with a small bamboo stick, which could be eaten after grabbing it.
"Huh..." Feeling the strange taste, Hou Xuanyan looked down and saw that it turned out to be a piece of dragon fruit.
"Where did this thing be tributed?"
The palace maid on the side stepped forward and said, "Go back to Your Majesty, according to Eunuch Li, this is the tribute fruit of Jingnan's tribute."
The Siam, which includes Jingnan Province, is the later Thailand. This dragon fruit was discovered from the American continent and was spread to Asia by missionaries. The first ones that appeared must be the Nanyang and other places that once became colonies. It seems that the god-given crops and fruits in the Americas have spread around the world.
Hou Xuanyan quietly remembered this matter in his heart, and was about to tell his ministers when he had time and introduce it to the country to try planting.
Huang Ying'er wrinkled her nose and said disapprovingly: "Just looking for something new, it doesn't taste very good."
This foodie's face made everyone in the pavilion radiate, especially Gu Ling'er, who seemed to ignore her image.
Hou Xuanyan was about to help his whining monster escape, but Li Zi whispered outside: "Your Majesty, Lord Peng Zhuze outside the palace is asking for a visit."
"Oh? Let him go to Nuanfang Pavilion, and I will arrive later."
Peng Zhuze came to the palace excitedly because he had prepared his team. To be honest, Peng Zhuze was not very willing to let him be the principal.
He still likes the military camp, and where is his favorite place. He is a rough man and wants to be the leader of a group of scholars, which makes Peng Zhuze feel at a loss.
But what came immediately was the envious and curious gaze of the people around him, which made Peng Zhuze a little more useful. Although this Tujia man made great achievements, he had always felt a little inferior in his heart.
Hou Xuanyan set out to Nuanfang Pavilion. As soon as he entered the hall gate, he saw Peng Zhuze standing there nervously and silently reciting something.
Hou Xuanyan chuckled and said, "You come to see me, don't do your homework at home, do you want to recite it in this Nuanfang Pavilion?"
"Hehe, Your Majesty knows my skills. My youngest daughter is more literate than me. This time the plan was also done by my subordinates, but I have also made up my mind to run this university for Your Majesty."
Hou Xuanyan nodded and said, "Everything is difficult at the beginning. As long as you get on the right track, you, the principal, will be placed there like the door god posted on the wall. Now the border is unstable, I still want to use yours."
This sentence came to Peng Zhuze's heart. When he heard that he would not have to work for the principal for the rest of his life, Peng Zhuze was happy and immediately knelt on one knee and said, "It is my lifelong request to die in the battlefield for Your Majesty."
"It's better to change the battle to the death. I don't want my beloved general to die at the hands of the enemy chief."
Hou Xuanyan read Peng Zhuze’s school building plan. Generally speaking, it is appropriate, so that is enough.
To build it first, Hou Xuanyan also needs to spend time slowly polishing it, so that this new school can completely replace the old college.
"A memorial came from Suzhou, saying that the school site has been selected. In the picturesque Shiquan Street, it seems that Xia Yunyi has no other ideas for doing business this time."
Peng Zhuze asked in confusion after hearing this, "What other ideas?"
Hou Xuanyan's face turned right and said in a calm voice: "Remember, when new things rise, they will inevitably be surrounded and criticized by old things. At this time, you, the principal, must protect your school and students just like on the battlefield, be cruel and vicious, and fight against all troublemakers."
Peng Zhuze grinned and said, "Don't worry, your Majesty, how stubborn they can be, is even more stubborn than the Thousand-year-old chieftains in the southwest."
Hou Xuanyan looked at his reaction and thought that he had not found the wrong person. Sometimes, the game at the ideological level requires such simple-minded characters to resist. However, he still reminded him: "These people have to dominate our Central Plains for a long time, which is no shorter than that of the chieftain occupying the southwest."
Traditional ideas and conservative rules have been the precipitation of cultural dregs over the past thousand years, and the degree of solidity cannot be achieved by Hou Xuanyan alone.
Only by building universities everywhere, completely opening your eyes to the world, and leading people to abandon their inherent rigid thinking can they emanate the trend of thought, usher in a new rise of the nation, and maintain a fresh vitality.
This is a long-standing project. Hou Xuanyan has just started and does not intend to eat a fat man in one bite.
