Wei and Jin Cooks

 Zhang Shi is ready to go at any time. Of course, his father Zhang Gui didn't know about this at this time. He was still waiting for Zhang Shi to come back in Xiliang.

 He wanted to know what was going on in the capital, and he had been paying close attention to the developments in the country recently.

Like him, Shi Le and Bei Gongchun were watching the capital closely and caring about the situation of the country.

But they have a radio station, so the news is much faster.

On the afternoon of the second day after the new emperor ascended the throne, they received news that Tuoba Liuxiu had become the new king, and that the country would be under the jurisdiction of Youzhou. Although the future king would have military power, he would not have the right to actually govern the place.

 Officials of the state must be appointed by the court.

Even the current tribal leader needs to be rewarded by the court again, even if the candidate is not changed.

When Shi Le heard this, he was very satisfied and laughed happily. He said to Zhang Bin: "What is mine is mine. Sir, you are right. There is no need to force it. This Dai Guohe should be mine!"

Zhang Bin also grinned and corrected him: "It belongs to your Majesty, general. Don't let it slip outside."

“I know, I know,” Shi Le waved his hand nonchalantly, “Of course I only say this in front of Mr.

Shi Le's eyes were bright, and he clenched his fists and said: "The country of Dai is rich in water and grass. It is a good place for grazing cattle, sheep, and breeding horses. I won the country of Dai, and there are large areas of well salt in Youzhou, plus cultivated land. Youzhou sits It’s just around the corner.”

Zhang Bin's eyes flashed with worry, and he quickly covered it up and said: "Hasn't General ever thought about going to a more prosperous place to become a frontier official in the future? Such as Jizhou, Xuzhou, or even Yuzhou."

 The most prosperous and affluent state recognized in the world is Yuzhou.

Shi Le looked suspicious, "The emperor will let me be the governor of Yuzhou?"

Zhang Bin smiled and said: "Why not? I think Your Majesty will use eclectic methods of personnel. It will not be a problem in the future. With the ability of a general, he can even serve as prime minister in the court."

Shi Le was silent for a while, and then he sighed and persuaded: "I know your husband loves me, but please don't praise me like this. I still know myself."

If he were in the Han Kingdom, oh, Liu Yuan's Xiongnu Kingdom, he would certainly be confident that he could be king or prime minister. After all, everyone was a rough guy, and Liu Yuan's men were either from his background or were bandits and bandits. He didn't think he was any worse than anyone else.

 Can fight against the people under Zhao Hanzhang...

Just being an ancestor made Shi Le feel ashamed.

When it comes to fighting, Zu Ti and Beigong Chun are both superior to him in terms of military use. Not to mention, Zhao Hanzhang is far better than him in terms of military skills.

  Zhao Hanzhang was even better than him in both civil and military skills.

 So Shi Le has always felt inferior to himself, he was both proud and inferior at the same time.

Zhang Bin saw that he was still self-aware, and immediately said: "The general is not bad, why not start studying with a certain person from now on, and with the ability of the general, he will be granted the title of marquis and prime minister. It will be just around the corner."

Shi Le's scalp was numb, and he reluctantly nodded under Zhang Bin's earnest gaze.

A few days later, Shi Le received a telegram stating that he was named Marquis of Xuanwu.

He immediately threw away the book in his hand, pinched his waist and laughed loudly, and said to his left and right, "Did you hear that? I am also a marquis now."

 So you can become a marquis without studying.

Zhang Bin, who came over, saw the book thrown on the couch and was speechless for a long time.

Shi Le met Zhang Bin's gaze and explained: "Sir, a certain person has been granted the title of Marquis."

 Zhang Bin: "General, Zhang heard it outside. He heard that Zu Ti was granted the title of Duke of Beiping, and General Beigong was granted the title of Duke of England."

Shi Le was silent.

Zhang Bin advised: "Since the general is always compared with these two, he should target them."

Shi Le swallowed his saliva. He felt that Zhang Bin was right, but...

 He compromised: "I can listen to books for two hours every day."

Zhang Bin thought for a while, nodded, but still advised: "Although you can learn something by listening to books, the articles analyzed from other people's mouths will bring other people's opinions to some extent. The general still needs to read more, and then he can read the most interesting things for himself. The original book has a wonderful taste if you understand it yourself."

Shi Le: "Although I only listen to the book, I still have my own understanding, which is also very beautiful."

Shi Le didn't like to study himself, but he was very strict with his sons and the children under his rule, and they were not allowed to stop studying.

He asked Zhang Bin to be his son's teacher. Knowing that Wei Jie was knowledgeable, he specially asked him to teach his son.

Wei Jie looked at the child who was brought to him and was speechless for a long time. After teasing him for a while, he said, "Your Majesty, can the young master speak?"

Shi Le frowned, "I'm two years old and can only speak simple words, so I asked Shu Bao to teach me. You are good-looking, and the children all like you. They are willing to listen to you, and you must learn quickly."

Wei Jie said: "Let's wait another three years. The child will not be enlightened until he is at least five years old."

Although Shi Le was dissatisfied, everyone persuaded him to stop.

 Only two years old, so pitiful.

 Then there are the children from Youzhou.

 Youzhou is not the state with the most popular education, but it is definitely the state with the highest enrollment rate of children and the closest ratio of male to female students.

 Shi Le himself had difficulty in reading, but he liked to listen to others talk about books.

He knew the importance of learning, so he would listen to books for an hour every day. He himself suffered from being uneducated, so he was the most supportive of Zhao Hanzhang's efforts to build schools and encourage people to enroll in schools.

His reputation is notorious, and his policies have become tougher. He requires boys and girls of appropriate age to enter school. If parents are found to prevent their children from enrolling in school, the parents will be caught and serve in the military.

Parents were scared to death, so all children over the age of seven, regardless of gender, were sent to school and had to study for at least three years.

No one dared to disobey, for fear of being caught by the big devil Shi Le and thrown into prison.

 Therefore, although there were few people in Youzhou, the school was the best, so Zhao Hanzhang allocated more teachers to him.

She also knew that he had some extreme methods, but she turned a blind eye.

She even wanted to learn from it, so she asked Zhao Cheng, Chen Siniang and others to discuss education legislation. "All children of school age, over seven years old and under fourteen years old, who have not attended school, must attend school for three years. Regardless of whether it is a boy or a girl, if there is any violation, the elder will serve in prison for three months until the child enters school."

Zhao Ming frowned and said, "Fourteen years old, isn't it too old?"

Chen Siniang: "I think this age is just right, even a little young. It should be stipulated in the education law that all students are allowed to enter the school for three years, regardless of age or gender."

 Zhao Hanzhang patted the handle lightly and praised: "This is how it should be."

 Zhao Cheng also nodded. There is no distinction between education and distinction. This educational concept is also something he admires.

Zhao Ming frowned, and Chang Ning explained the difficulty for him, "Your Majesty, money."

Zhao Hanzhang said: "For education, no matter how much money you pay, it is worth it."

Speaking of this, Zhao Hanzhang sighed, "Our teachers are all great people." In the early days of compulsory education, the people and the country benefited, and the teachers who sacrificed the most were the teachers on the front line.

Due to limited financial resources, the country cannot pay teachers much.

Thinking of the private property that was being counted recently, Zhao Hanzhang gritted his teeth and said: "From this year on, my private property, whether it is workshops, shops, or fields, except caravans, 20% of the annual profits will be used for compulsory education."

 Zhao Cheng and Chen Siniang were overjoyed and immediately said: "Your Majesty is wise."

 Only Zhao Ming and Chang Ning looked solemn, but considering the importance of education, they still responded.

Zhao Hanzhang smiled and said: "The wisdom of the people is the wisdom of the country, and the wisdom of the future. The country and I will not lose this money. Chang Ning, don't be stingy in education."

 Chang Ning responded.

 Since so much has been spent on education, it must produce results, otherwise it will be a waste of money.

Chang would rather not have the idea of ​​favoring boys over girls. In his view, regardless of men or women, as long as they can work, they can create value, and the value will feed back to the country.

So he was the first to support this punitive education bill, and also provided a more specific method, "If there is a father, punish the father, if there is no father, punish the grandfather, then punish the mother, and thirdly, punish those who are sixteen years old and above." Brother, anyone who prevents girls from going to school should serve for three months to repair rivers, water conservancy, or roads, or serve in hard labor in military camps. I think there will no longer be anyone in the world who will stop girls from going to school."

 The world rarely prevents boys from going to school.

They all know that studying is a good thing, so no matter how difficult it is, they will let the boys in the family go to school, but they will keep the girls at home on the excuse of having to work and lack of labor force.

 Fortunately, this was the Wei and Jin dynasties, and the mountains that weighed on women were not as high as those of later generations. In addition, Zhao Hanzhang became the emperor, and there were many female officials in the court, so there was gradually a trend of favoring women among the people.

 This decree was the fastest to be passed and was implemented immediately. It was not long before it was published in newspapers and spread through counties and counties, and people all over the country knew about it.

Even in remote villages, Li Zheng was called to the county government office, took a stack of brochures and went back to teach the Fa.

Li Zheng had very high power. He directly called the adults from every household to hold detailed meetings and study.

　　When it was known that daughters over seven and under fourteen years old had to be sent to school, otherwise the adults in the family would have to serve in the military for three months, some people were dissatisfied, but they did not dare to stop their daughters from enrolling in school.

He also asked fearfully: "What if the girl at home just can't learn and can't read?"

“Then they must be sent to the school,” Li Zheng said, “otherwise the yamen will punish them all.”

Seeing that they were not convinced, Li Zheng said: "You also know that the imperial court will not issue labor services this year. If each village wants to organize people to dig ditches and build roads, the roads in the county are in very bad condition. We are waiting for I need someone to practice it."

"If you commit a crime, the county government will be very happy. When someone from the county comes to check, as long as it is found that there are children of school age at home who have not gone to school, you will have to go to the county to serve. Do the math, even if you start serving in September, We have to work until January next year. If we stop for a period of time in the meantime, we will be stuck in farming and all our livelihood for a year will be wasted."

Everyone trembled and did not dare to neglect. As soon as they returned home and took stock, they held their noses and sent the children to the county school.

 The number of students in the school suddenly doubled, including girls and boys. The number of girls was several times that of boys.

The teachers in the school were extremely busy, and the bookstores in various counties and counties were also busy, bringing paper mills and other related industries to an industrial explosion.

It is naturally impossible to build new buildings in the school at once, so a class of thirty people originally had sixty or seventy students crammed into it, and the space was squeezed out.

But the children who came to school were very quiet and obedient. At this time, most of them had no books, pens, ink, paper and inkstones, so the gentlemen taught them how to make sand tables or find suitable slates as tools for reading.

 The first thing he taught them were the simplest Chinese characters and counting.

The reason why Zhao Hanzhang set three years of compulsory education is because in three years he can recognize most common words, know simple arithmetic, and understand some of the simplest principles.

 The current Chinese country only has this ability. If it wants to further extend the time of compulsory education, she still has to work hard.

The education undertaking across the country was launched with great vigor, and it didn’t take long for the first long holiday for schools to come - the autumn harvest holiday.

 This is also the first long holiday issued by Zhao Hanzhang after he ascended the throne.

 The autumn harvest holiday is not fixed. During the busiest period of the autumn harvest every year, Zhao Hanzhang will take seven days off in one go.

Not only the universities under the Imperial Academy, but also schools across the country will have holidays. Officials of the imperial court and even local officials will also have autumn harvest holidays.

Zhao Hanzhang hopes that every official who farms at home will go home to harvest in the autumn, so that he can know the situation of the autumn harvest that year and experience the joy of the autumn harvest and the hard work of farming.

Zhao Hanzhang went to the fields to cut rice with his sickle.

This season’s rice was replanted later, so it ripened late. It was already the Double Ninth Festival. After the rice was harvested, winter wheat had to be sown.

Zhao Hanzhang stood bent over in the field, wearing a big bamboo hat on his head, harvesting rice with nimble hands and feet. Fu Tinghan, who has always been ingenious, was much slower than her.

Zeng Yue and the guards of the Forbidden Army surrounded them, and there were only a dozen or so guarded Forbidden Soldiers standing on the ridge of the field.

When Mrs. Wang came over with her people, she met Princess Hongnong and Fu Xuan, who were dressed neatly.

 She was stunned for a moment, "Princess?"

Princess Hongnong rarely appeared in front of people, perhaps to reduce the conflict with Zhao Hanzhang and prevent outsiders from over-interpreting their relationship. Except for the family of King An and King Langya, she only focused on running her own industry and almost never interacted with court officials. Don’t enter the palace.

Wang has lived in the palace for more than a month, and I only saw her once at the palace banquet on the day Zhao Hanzhang ascended the throne.

Princess Hongnong said politely: "Meet the Queen Mother."

Wang hurriedly supported her and asked quickly: "Is there something wrong with the princess coming to see Hanzhang? I'll have someone call her over."

"No," Princess Hongnong stopped her quickly and said, "I heard that your majesty is harvesting here, so I came to help."

 She also brought her own sickle.

Fu Xuan stood aside with a numb face. They had been married for many years, and even in the most difficult years, she had never been to the farmland.

Although Princess Hongnong has never farmed, she knows the importance of farming to a country, and she also knows the role of the emperor as a role model.

Since even the Wang family is here, she has to come.

 Wang was confused and took her to find Zhao Hanzhang. She was just here to deliver food. She didn't want to go to the fields to cut rice.

This was the case for the past two days. Her daughter and son-in-law were working in the fields, so she sat on the mat under the shade of the tree, ate and drank, and admired the autumn scenery. It was just an autumn outing.

Although the palace is very large, it is still very boring after living there for a long time. At this time, Wang has already thought about moving out of the palace and living at home, so she took the opportunity to follow Zhao Hanzhang out of the palace in the past two days.

 She just wanted to go to the palace, not to cut rice in the fields.

At this age, she has held scissors and kitchen knives, but she has never held a sickle.

Wang secretly glanced at her in-laws, who was walking proudly and proudly, and felt a little guilty.

If Fu Xuan knew what she was thinking, he would definitely tell her, mother-in-law, don’t panic, because she is the same as you.

 Two chapters combined into one, see you tomorrow, I’ll make up for it tomorrow
