Chapter 616 University
"……Snapped……"

"……Snapped……"

Two kicks after another were shot into the air, and after two crisp sounds, there would be a few wisps of blue smoke.

Because it is broad daylight, you can only see a few sparks at most, that is, you can only hear a few sparks, which are far less brilliant than in the night.

But even so, the crowd of onlookers, the children of aristocratic families, powerful families, etc. were still terrified.

They couldn't figure out why the fire flew into the sky and made such a noise?
After a full quarter of an explosion, the noise stopped one after another.Li Chengzhi stepped forward, and lightly lifted the red silk, revealing a piece of stone bi, more than ten feet high and two feet long.

The stone wall is not a whole, but a lot of stone blocks cut into squares and built together.

It looks like jade, crystal clear and smooth, but in fact it is just the most common granite in Heli Mountain. After cutting into pieces, it is ground with water until it is as bright as a mirror, so it is so smooth.

There are four big characters engraved on it, like silver hooks and iron scratches, vigorous and powerful.And crossing the gold, dazzling: Zhenyi University.

It sounds very descendant, but it is not original by Li Chengzhi, but just another name for Taixue.

And there is a source, "Book of Rites King System": the university is in the suburbs, the emperor is called Piyong, and the princes are called Pan Palace...

When the red silk was taken off, seeing the word "University", all of Li's trilogy trembled with excitement.However, Ru Shijia and Hao Qiang's complexion changed drastically, and their hearts were jumping with fear.

It can only be called a university, and it can only be established by the royal family or princes.Is Mrs. Li preparing to be honored, or directly crowned king?

It's just that Li Chengzhi doesn't know, otherwise he would definitely say: You think too much...

More than a hundred salutes were fired, and the red silk was unveiled. This opening ceremony is considered a ceremony.Li Chengzhi did his part, walked past Shibi, and stepped into the gate.

Then came Li Shiliang, Li Liang, Li Song, Li Shi and other civil and military officials, officials above the party leader, and invited gentry.

Most of the people who were invited to watch the ceremony had been notified in advance.But there are also a few who don't know what to do, and while walking in, they ask the people walking around: "What are you doing?"

"can not see?"

Someone pointed to the big characters on the stone wall and said, "Naturally, Lixue!"

Li Xue, is it so simple?
It's just a strange sound, and the red silk is lifted, and the ceremony is done?

It's too much fun, isn't it?
A scholar was not angry, and laughed in a low voice: "This Li family is also a disciple of the sage (Confucius) at any rate. He passed on the "Poetry" to his family. Don't you know that all learning must be explained and laid down in the sages and teachers? Don't worship the sages It’s fine if you don’t offer sacrifices to three animals, you don’t even set up an incense table, you don’t even set up a statue of the ancestors? It’s simply deceiving teachers and destroying ancestors, it’s insulting to gentleness..."

Although his voice was low, he heard quite a few people around him, no matter how poor or poor, they were all literate people, so they all took it for granted.

Since Emperor Wu of the Han suppressed hundreds of schools of thought, only respected Confucianism, and set up doctors of the Five Classics, all dynasties and dynasties have always followed the "Book of Rites": "Where any learning is established, it must be interpreted and laid on the foundation of the sages and teachers."

At that time, the first sage was Zhou Gong, and the first teacher was Confucius. The establishment of the school must erect the statues of these two gods and sacrifice them with great ceremony.

Later, when it came to Cao Wei, it was changed to: Dismiss Duke Zhou, worship Confucius as the first sage, and the first teacher Yan Hui as his match!

After that, Murong Xianbei and Tuoba Xianbei entered the Central Plains one after another, and they all followed the rules of etiquette, where Confucius and Yan Hui must be honored in every school.However, the Li family behaved in this way, so they were born in the gentry, and even all the literate people were secretly grievances.

But they only dared to whisper a few words behind their backs, and no one dared to yell out loud, let alone question them face to face.

To have such an effect, of course, is the benefit of Li Chengzhi's adherence to "use heavy codes in troubled times"...

Everyone filed in, but just after entering the gate, Li Chengzhi stopped again.

In front of him is a stone platform with a stone tablet erected on it, which is also very large, but much thinner.

It is densely engraved with words, one is the admission requirements, the other is the teaching content, and the third is the qualifications for being a teacher.

Li Chengzhi waved his sleeves: "Let's all have a look!"

Li Shiliang promised, and sent an order to the generals who led the team to maintain order, and officials from all townships, party offices, aristocratic families, and poor families lined up to read in front of the stele.

After just a few breaths, there was silence under the stele, and the drop of a needle could be heard.

Good guy, this Zhenyi University doesn't study the Five Classics anymore?
It's not not learning, but dying.

It means that the Five Classics is no longer the main subject, whether it is doctoral professor or student study, it is only regarded as incidental.

The inscription even states that Mingjing (endorsement) and Jingyi (interpretation of scriptures) are no longer compulsory exams, or even necessary conditions for becoming a teacher.

In the Five Classics, there is only one topic on current affairs, and laws, arithmetic, science and engineering are added as compulsory subjects.

What changed the faces of all the gentry was that the inscription stated: All students must pass the exam to be a teacher, to take up a position, to govern, and to lead the army.

Someone who is smart has already figured it out: Does it mean that in the future, Xihai will only have to enter the university and take the exam if he wants to be an official?

Only this point is like hitting the seven inches of a snake, and all the tyrants of the world are as black as iron.

But no one dared to make any noise, at most they just exchanged glances and cursed secretly in their hearts.

But when they looked down again, these people knew that the one just now was just a small test, and the next step was the big move: all the people of Zhenyi and Xihai, regardless of high or low, regardless of family status, regardless of origin, regardless of household registration, must reach the age of fifteen. , Anyone who can read and write can take the exam and enter the school.

That's all there is to it, what's too much is that there is an added item at the end: Anyone who has reached the age of six, regardless of male or female, regardless of their origin, can enter Zhenyi and Xihai without examination, and attend primary schools in the two townships.

Moreover, there is no need to study, and besides full board and lodging, anyone who has a student in the family can be exempted from a certain amount of taxes.A few years of enrollment will be exempted for a few years.

With such favorable conditions, you can tell with your toes what those poor ghosts will be happy about.If it wasn't for the stipulated school age, all newborn babies would definitely be sent in.

And in this way, doesn't it mean that in the future, the children of the powerful, the children of the gentry, and even the children of officials, will worship the same teacher, live in the same hall, and sleep in the same room with the children of craftsmen and slaves?
They couldn't figure it out, why didn't Mrs. Li leave any room?

Even Yuan Ke hated the powerful and nobles, at least he did it step by step, boiling frogs in warm water.

For example, many shackles have been put on the procuratorial system, and many obstacles have been added. For example, if you do not enter the Taixue, Guozijian, or enter the central government.Another example is to fight against all opinions, set a precedent in history, build four primary schools, and set up law, arithmetic, and calligraphy, which abruptly squeezed a way for the poor and common people to make progress.

But even so, it is still the imperial family and nobles who study in Yu Taixue.The students of Yu Guozi School are still the children of powerful families, gentry, and high-ranking officials.Anyone who does not enter the first class, or is an official below the fifth rank, or is a child of a powerful, common, poor family, etc., can only enter the four elementary schools.

And the common people and poor families who attended Yusimen Primary School are also children of good families. They have been passed down through farming and studying for generations, and their backgrounds are innocent.

But the Li family is good, regardless of high or low, everyone is treated equally?
This is simply deceiving... No, it killed the nobles.

Even under the sky, it is impossible for everyone to be an official. If everyone can read and write, how can there be a way for the nobles of the family to survive?

What's more, even women can go to school?

Li Shi doesn't even want face...

There are those who are panicked, frightened and frightened, angry and discolored.

There are also those who gnash their teeth and have hostility on their faces, and even tremble with anger, and there are not a few who tremble continuously.

But the strange thing is that not to mention attacking them in groups, they just swear, and there is no one who speaks sarcastically.

Just because they know that Li's thieves really dare to kill people.

Just like that, one team after another, let me take a closer look.Regardless of whether the township party or the gentry, there is no dissatisfaction with grief and indignation.

After holding back for a long time, a white-haired old man came out tremblingly, and made a bow to Li Shiliang: "Dare to ask the envoy, if the Li's children learn, will they follow the same example?"

Looking at the old man, Li Shiliang's face turned cold, and he replied in a solemn voice: "All the people in my Zhenyi and Xihai obey, how can my Li family be an exception?"

He only thought that he would wait for a different answer, but he didn't expect Li Shiliang to agree immediately, and the old man was speechless for a while.

Seeing Li Shiliang's gloomy face, Li Chengzhi said thoughtfully, "Who is this old man?"

Li Song replied in a low voice: "This person is Zhao Xian, the great-great-grandson of Shangshu Zhao Qian of the Later Qin Dynasty. ..."

Li Chengzhi thought for a while, and the corner of his mouth curled up slightly.

It turned out to be the Tianshui Zhao family?
The Zhao family in Tianshui is a first-class family, even compared with the Hongnong Yang family, they don't give in too much.It's just that in the Yuan and Wei Dynasties, there were not a few children who served as important officials in the Yu Dynasty, governors of states and counties, and prefects.

Because the ancestors lived in Qinzhou, and the children of the Jia family were the subordinates of the right general Yuan, so Erju's family was attached to the rebels.Then he was taken back to Hexi by Li Chengzhi.

Because the Zhao family and the Ren family are both prominent families in Qinzhou, and they are direct relatives by marriage.And the eldest aunt came from the Ren family, so Li Shiliang treated the Zhao family very kindly.

It is also because of this that the Zhao family did not participate in the defection, and most of the children of the clan also served in the army and the village.Although the position is not high, but the life is very nourishing

The reason why Li Chengzhi laughed was because he was worrying about how to beat the Zhao family, but the patriarch of the Zhao family took the initiative to send it to the door?

Although today's Xihai is as pure as a piece of white paper, Li Chengzhi's plan to eradicate the cancer of the powerful family still encountered great resistance.

At least half of them came from the four families of Zhao, Ren, Jiang, and Yan who were born in the two states of Qin and Liang.

Because Xihai suddenly moved [-] to [-] households at that time, government affairs almost fell into a state of stagnation.In order to clear the clues, Li Shiliang and Li Song can only rely on cronyism.

The Ren family was used first, and the Ren family recommended the Zhao family, then the Jiang family, and the Yan family...so after Li Chengzhi arrived in Hexi, many of the children of these four families had already held important positions.

This is not a big deal, after all, it is impossible to beat everyone to death with a single stick, and it is even more impossible for the huge Xihai people to have [-] households and tens of thousands of soldiers. If there is a class, a part must be used.

But what Li Chengzhi didn't expect was that he killed so many people because he bewitched the households to defect, and almost wiped out nearly half of the Xihai clan, but he still didn't shock these people?

It is estimated that it is due to the inherent thinking that the rest of the powerful and noble families are extremely united, almost desperately resisting the way for the children of the poor and the common people to make progress.

To give the simplest example, it is like many phenomena in the workplace of later generations: no matter how much work you do and how beautifully you do it, you will never be able to compare with the handful of people who are related.

But we can't kill everything, someone has to do the job.In addition, the gentry originally used Yangmou: people make mistakes, and if Shangguan insists on being serious, he has a lot of reason.

That's why Li Chengzhi couldn't wait to build such a university, and he promulgated so many policies to benefit the people in order to encourage the children of ordinary people to enroll.

Regardless of other things, if a child in the family goes to school, it can offset [-]% of the annual tax of the family.

Although all the people in Xihai are exempted from tax in the first two years, regardless of farming and animal husbandry, but Li Chengzhi is exempt from tax in the next two years.

If there are more children of the right age in the family, wouldn't it mean that there is no need to pay taxes, or even a very small amount of taxes?
Then where will the food and salaries of soldiers and officials come from, and where will the weapons and armor come from?

So no one can understand Li Chengzhi...

With Zhao Xian taking the lead, the rest of the people gradually became more courageous, and the cards gradually became noisy, and some people were already sneering or even scolding in a low voice.

What insulted gentlemen, what bullied masters and exterminated ancestors, and even the words of forgetting the ancestors.

Most of them are the children of the aristocratic families who have not become officials, and there are also those who have already served in the township party and the army.

Just because it's all in the same group...

The louder the noise, the louder the voice, and even scolding words came out, but the strange thing was that Li Song and others were already turning purple with anger, but he was still calm and relaxed, as if he was watching a play.

Li Song finally couldn't stand it any longer, he cupped his fists fiercely, as if he wanted to ask for a military order.But before he even opened his mouth, Li Chengzhi waved his hand calmly: "Why panic, back down!"

Li Song paused, guessing that Li Chengzhi must have a backup, made a bow and retreated.

Li Shiliang's heart skipped a beat: I'm afraid this is not a trick to get caught?
This nephew has always been as majestic as a mountain, and he says what he says.The temperament that never rubs the sand in the eyes is well known to all acquaintances, how could he allow others to bully Li's ancestors face to face and turn a blind eye?
He leaned closer to Li Chengzhi, and persuaded in a low voice: "If you kill him again, will there really be no one to use?"

"Uncle, don't worry, I won't kill people today, I just convince people with reasoning, at most I will kill a few chickens to scare monkeys..."

Li Chengzhi replied, and shouted loudly: "Xiaoxian, it's almost there!"

People have a mentality of blind obedience, and he is afraid that if these people continue to make trouble, there will be no one left.

Li Xiao first bowed to promise, and then shouted loudly: "Suppress... If you dare to make noise again, you will be served with sticks..."

Following the roar, a group of soldiers rushed into the crowd, regardless of age, young or old, all separated.

Everyone's expressions changed drastically, and only then did they realize that this was not Qinzhou, let alone Guanzhong, but Xihai.

There is no kingly law or reason here, it is only about whose hand the sword is in.

It was still Zhao Xian, only to hear him yell anxiously: "Emissary Li, is it true that the Li family is also going to practice evil laws and tyranny, and use speech as a crime?"

Without waiting for Li Shiliang to respond, Li Chengzhi laughed loudly and said, "Don't worry, Li will not kill anyone today!"

As he spoke, Li Chengzhi took off the crown on his head, revealing his half-white hair...
