Chapter 714: : There is a lot to do

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Baijia of Zhu Xia's scholars was either annexed by Confucianism, or played the "Confucian Skin X Bone" set. In fact, there is no way to inherit it.

   Liu Yan wanted to have a theory to unify the nation's thinking. Apart from searching among the various schools of Confucianism, he could only create a theory by himself, but he was not specialized in this, and he did not have so much energy again.

  In order to develop internal affairs, the pursuit of Han Dynasty is not simply to restore people's livelihood. According to Liu Yan's vision, scientific and technological progress should also be gradually unfolded.

   Liu Yan can only use science without much hands-on ability. What he can do is encourage people to discover and study science. As the ruler of a country, especially a king who founded the country, he has the ability to encourage.

As early as the third year of Yuanshuo, Liu Yan was already making arrangements, that is, to open as many schools as possible to increase the literacy rate. Only if there are more literate people will there be a scientific foundation, or else you can’t read a lot of characters. How to explore science?

Nowadays, in Han, the military has the highest literacy rate. Liu Yan, who was born, is familiar with certain military routines, but he didn’t learn the spirit of XX, but simply taught literacy. .

   There are so many retired military personnel who can enter the township to become basic-level officials because they are literate. Otherwise, they would not even be able to read or record anything. How can they be officials?

   At this stage, it is more difficult to popularize private education than to reach the sky. After all, ascending to the sky can still choose a cliff to play gliding, but if you want to popularize folk education, you can't change the teachers.

   Since ancient times, students but no teachers have always troubled the promotion of education. Liu Yan copied so many families of families and collected countless classics. But the books of families can be obtained by copying their homes, but teachers can't grab them.

   "Now those who can be called giants are all masters of calligraphy, poetry, and metaphysics." Sang Yu said of the embarrassing status of the civilizations of the Xia Dynasty: "This generation is a generation of empty talkers, but there is no way to govern the world."

   There are capable people in Confucianism, and there are still many, especially after the Western Han Dynasty, there are more capable people in Confucianism. To put it bluntly, Confucianism also knows that it is not suitable to be a "ruling one party," knowing that nothing can be done except lip service. It can only get rid of other schools and use the knowledge of these schools to govern.

   After the history of the Western Jin Dynasty, Confucianism that has gone through countless "rectifications" has really no more giants of the practical school. All Confucian schools of thought are left with a mouth, and being able to speak well has no substantive and beneficial talents. This is the root of the Eastern Han dynasty. Confucianism lost its opponents and fell into constant civil strife. At the same time, they desperately studied the famous sayings of "Zhuzi" and wanted to use "ancestors" to overwhelm people, which led to the increasingly rigid Confucianism.

   Sang Yu is actually still scared. If we want to talk about the cultural ravages of the Hulu north of the Yangtze River, it is not comparable to the south of the Yangtze River. He was fortunate that the cultural people in the South did not live up to their expectations. They lost almost all of their useful knowledge in governing the country and played with the "invincible" model. Furthermore, the study of calligraphy was more than enthusiasm for governing the country.

   "Calligraphy can be used for nurturing, but it is useless in governing the country; poetry and prose can tell history, but it is also useless in governing a country; metaphysics...hehe." Sang Yu did not hide his mockery at all: "It is the theology that the king said."

   Don’t forget that in the civilizations of the Xia Dynasty, the kingship overwhelmed the divine power. That is, the Sima family became puppets to allow metaphysics to flourish. Otherwise, even the stupid ruler would not watch metaphysics become the mainstream of intellectual research.

   After the ravages of Hulu, all parts of the North have fallen into a state of cultural poverty, but there are definitely more intellectuals who can do things than the South.

   After the founding of the People’s Republic of China, Liu Yan was extremely lack of local officials. The northern scholars were recruited as officials in large numbers, and the southern part would be able to get his own position if he came over. Facts have proved that people who dared to be officials during the period of the founding of the country were a bit of a surprise. It was also that the Han country at that time had not demonstrated the strength of swallowing the world, and official fans did not dare to bet for the time being.

   After waiting for the Han to show its power to dominate the world, the number of people seeking officials soared, but the quality at this stage was really not good, especially the quality of the southern scholars was the worst. How bad is it? They are literate, they can speak with one mouth, and they know what to say and what not to say. When they get to the local government, they have their salaries and all the photos of filial piety underneath are collected. Then they started to make sculptures and put them there to prove Their own existence allows them to investigate how they should develop under the rule... Hey, don't be funny.

   "It's true." Ji Chang didn't fall into trouble because he was born in the northern department. He said realistically: "A large number of'clay officials' are abolished every year. Although there are both in the north and the south, the most are in the south."

   Liu Yan is still aware of this phenomenon, and even knows that those guys are defending that they are engaging in "Huang Lao governing the world." If he hadn’t studied the doctrines of Zhu Xia civilization before, he really thought that the so-called "Lao Huang governing the world" means that officials do nothing and let the people freely exercise. But he really understands how "Lao Huang governs the world" After the incident, I knew that "Huang Lao Zhi Shi" didn't care about anything at all. On the contrary, there were quite a lot of things in charge.

   The real "Huang Lao Governing the World" talks about "doing nothing and governing", but it also emphasizes "doing nothing without doing nothing".

What does that mean? The core idea of ​​"Huang Lao Governing the World" is to follow the laws of the great world, respect the individuality of people, and after formulating a large framework, "everyone shows their magical powers" and advances toward this goal. The first stage talks about "doing something, but doing it rashly", which is the first step in formulating a plan. Then there is "doing something, not doing something". Since there is no deviation after the plan is made, officials should not let their own temperament be fooled. The third is "do nothing but do nothing". Recognizing that the development and the plan are not in line, don't treat it as a failure to see, and no matter what means are used, the deviation will be broken.

   The so-called "Huang Lao Doctrine" is to do nothing. It is a confucian smear. If the Huang-Lao School as a "ruling one government and one party" really did nothing, the Western Han Dynasty rule of literature and scenery would never emerge. The "Huang Lao Doctrine" was abandoned by the Han Xiaowu Emperor Liu Che. It was purely that the Huang Lao School believed that the war against the Huns should be postponed and truly fully prepared to fight against the Huns. But the impatient Liu Che could not wait that long at all and come back. It is also Liu Che who dislikes the Huang Lao School's step-by-step approach (all things have a plan).

  Any kind of prestigious doctrine will not be useless, it is a means of governance adapted to the contemporary era, such as the prosperity of legalists in the Warring States period, and the emergence of Huang Lao in the early Han Dynasty, and even the rise of Confucianism is also the call of the times.

   Liu Yan is not harsh on unqualified officials, and what he adopted is to be demoted to the lower level to exercise. There are really many officials who become capable officials after training, and the ones that are rotten are repeatedly demoted. He is not tolerant of officials who violate the law at all. The lightest thing is to go to a border to repair the earth, and directly cut down those guys.

  The current Han country is not so short of intellectuals as officials. It is a common phenomenon after the rise of a country. There will be a shortage of people who plant peach trees, that is, people who never lack peaches.

   "Ahem..." Lv Yi didn't dare to let Sang Yu "bring the rhythm", and quickly changed the subject: "The construction of the new Chang'an is fast, and it can be completed by next winter at the latest."

   New Chang'an will not build a city wall. Only the palace wall is needed within the scope of Miyagi. The construction speed is indeed very fast under the overtime work of a large amount of labor.

  The Han country has now completed the expulsion of Hulu, but Liu Yan hasn't ascended the throne for a long time. He doesn't seem to be too anxious, but some people are anxious, not just officials, but the people are actually even more anxious.

   Zhu Xia civilization is a nation that needs to take the lead. For one to two thousand years, the need for the emperor is almost deeply rooted in the bones. I am really not used to days without an emperor.

   There are millions of laborers who are sweating for the construction of New Chang'an.

   **** is a kind of obligation, including serving as a soldier and working. Before the Qin Dynasty, you need to provide your own dry food. After the Han Dynasty, you need to eat and drink from the country. Even some of the escorts for work have wages (beginning with Liu Che, a good wealth boy).

In the Han country under Liu Yan’s rule, the people were expropriated and forced to receive wages only for a prolonged period of time. Food and drink were taken from the country as before the Han, but they added clothes to distribute. As a result, after the envoys of various countries entered the Han country, no matter whether it was building roads Yes, the city is still being repaired, and the clothing is uniform, making the envoys of various countries mistakenly believe that the people who are working are also members of the army.

   Those people who are responsible for road building are actually just like that. Those who build new Chang'an are different. They have already learned that after the city is built, they can move in by themselves and work as their own homes. The people in charge of repairing the palace are even more enthusiastic. They hope that there will be an emperor who has been looking forward to it for a long time, knowing that the achievement of the new Chang'an is the time for the king to advance to the emperor, and they are all working hard.

"It's almost a year faster than expected..." Liu Yan originally planned to build the new Chang'an in three years. He didn't know how enthusiasm the people were. Who did this...", scanning the ministers with cold eyes.

  The people scanned by Liu Yan all looked like they had a clear conscience. They acted urgingly, but did not squeeze them. It can be fully judged from data such as work-related injuries.

   Sangyu knows that some things don't need to be explained at all. It is more appropriate to look at the data than a thousand words. He first talked about the data on work-related injuries, and then came back to the topic: "My Lord, when it comes to doctrine, can the minister say a few more words?"

   Recently, Liu Yan has been talking about where his "beauties" are more than once. None of the central officials are deaf. They still intend to spread it to more people. The doctrines and schools that are still alive have become excited.

   Sang Yu is talking about a routine that has existed in all dynasties and dynasties: "Why don't the king issue an edict to recruit talents?"

   The official name should actually be called "Ling for Talents". The first "Ling for Talents" that can be recorded came from Qin Xiaogong, and the monarchs or heroes who wanted to make a difference in various dynasties have also done it. Every time a "Looking for Talents" comes out, people with ambitions will go to apply, and there have been quite a lot of people with great abilities.

  In a short time, Liu Yan was stunned, nothing else, but surprised why Sangyu mentioned this.

Having said that, the north has long been a culturally barren land after the raging of Hulu, and all the educated people fled to the south. If the recruitment order comes out, the south will definitely benefit the most. The northern part of Sangyu Isn't one of the leaders going to sit on wax?

"Recruiting talents? After valuing Confucianism, the only person who can be called a sage is a great Confucian." Liu Yan was more or less motivated, but with his own worries, and said: "The Confucian disciples have lost their original intention of governing the world and helping the people. What's the use of a bunch of officials who can only climb up?"

After hearing this, the faces of everyone were different. The generals who thought they were disciples of the soldiers did not even cover up laughing. Some people who thought they were legalists were also laughing. Only some people who thought they were Confucian scholars looked embarrassed. .

   "This..." Regardless of what he was before, Sang Yu became the country's justice and began to feel that he was a member of the legalist school, and he was not afraid of making things worse: "The hope of all the people is like nectar, why don't the kings follow it?"

In fact, Liu Yan now understands that Confucianism is not pure Confucianism for a long time, especially in the Eastern Han Dynasty. The politics of the elites in the Eastern Han Dynasty have been prevalent. That’s why there were so many Confucian scholars in the melee between the princes in the late Han Dynasty but did not do Confucian “good jobs”. Even after the Western Jin Dynasty, the Confucianism became more and more biased~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Lu Yi always felt that Sangyu had a conspiracy. , Just can't talk about any conspiracy. He is very clear about the number of scholars, the northern scholars do not know if there are more than 30% of the southern scholars. But Sang Yu, who has been suppressing the South, would have such a proposal? To say that Sangyu had no conspiracy, he absolutely did not believe it.

[As Sang Yu said, the southern gentry emphasized calligraphy, poetry, and metaphysics, and they were not very talented in the world...] Thinking of this, Lu Yi subconsciously looked at Wang Xizhi sitting in the corner. This talent must be there, but It is Fengya's talent, Wenlue can't govern a county, and martial arts can't make a team of soldiers: [Could it be... Sangyu wants the king to see the southern gentry? 】

In fact, there are scholars who can work in the south, but too many famous "people" belong to elegant people who can only talk about it. Lu Yi is too clear that Liu Yan only talks about practicality, otherwise Wang Xizhi who was called would not be just a writer. The secretary Lang should be a local official like Wang Meng who was let out to do practical work.

Liu Yan was also guessing what Sang Yu wanted to do. In a very short period of time, he recalled the gap between the scholars of the North and the South. At the same time, he had to think about whether there was any hidden "power" in the north to come out. That's why there was Sang Yu. Use the incompetence of the southern gentry to embellish the "mighty" ability.

"My lord, the minister agrees with the words of the imperial emissary." Ji Chang didn't have too many beautiful rhetoric, and clearly said: "Thinking can only bring benefits. There are many people, and there are many opinions. The best extracts can be taken away from the chaff. "

   "So..." Liu Yan looked at the imperial literati Wang Xizhi, and ordered: "The order can be given."
