Chapter 420
Xiping three years, May

Jia Xu ruled Ningzhou, Ningshanggao County, Xiagao County, Ma Hanuo, Chen County, Bian County, Dongyi County, Fuyu Country and other five counties and 35 counties, passing through the three counties of Hezhou, Xinzhou and Ningzhou. The establishment of the prefecture brought the territory of the Han Dynasty to an unprecedented new level. The strength of the country was immeasurable. After Jia Xu arrived in Ningzhou, he never went to the mansion, and only ordered the prefect to govern the country.

However, I travel around and supervise officials, which is also the job of the governor. The main scope of work of the governor is to inspect counties and counties, find out bad ones, and report to the emperor. He came to know the local officials and people's sentiments, but Jia Xu did the opposite, hiding his name and investigating everywhere.

After this matter was known by many officials in Ningzhou, none of the officials dared to violate the law, and Jia Xu’s inaction rule helped the whole Ningzhou a lot. More needs to be done, as long as they are given some time to cultivate, besides, Jia Xu doesn't want to make meritorious deeds and go to the temple. Here, it is much more stable than the temple.

In that month, the Qiang people outside the Great Wall rebelled. Yuan Shu, the Marquis of the Northern Army, and General Qieliqi, the guard of Qiang Zhonglang, went on an expedition together, defeated [-] enemies, captured the leader of the Qiang people, Nan Gongshi, and dedicated his head to Luoyang. Marquis of Huai County, Cheri was withdrawn as Marquis of Anni Township.

In June, the Taixue was republished and expanded, and government schools from all over the country were ordered to offer sacrifices to students to enroll.

Officially separate Taixue and Menzixue, with Cai Yong offering wine for Taixue and Zheng Xuan offering wine for Menzixue. Compared with two thousand stones, Taixue is still the same as usual, recruiting disciples from famous families, and Menzixue is still recruiting People from a poor family, so the status of Menzixue is far inferior to that of Taixue. Whether it is in terms of quantity or quality, in the last assessment, the number of scholars from Taixue is seven times that of Menzixue.

Therefore, after Zheng Xuan served as the sacrificial wine, he ordered to lower the admission standard of Menzixue, and vigorously expanded the mansion of Menzixue, and invited many of his friends and students to serve as doctors of economics. Yong didn't have any other ideas, but Lu Zhi helped him a lot. Lu Zhi went to the temple and asked the official school to establish a unified assessment system. Those who pass can enter Taixue and Menzixue.

The emperor immediately agreed, and ordered Lu Zhi, Cai Yong, Zheng Xuan, Hua Xin and others to take charge of the matter.

The assessment system established by the princes in the past, until now, everyone has figured out a general idea. There is no threshold for low-level government schools. As long as they can afford the fee, anyone can enroll. The fee is not expensive, and the teaching is also some of the most Basic literacy and arithmetic, among which the outstanding ones will be favored by government teachers, taught in person, and participate in the entrance examination, and only after passing can they enter the two universities.

The content of the entrance examination is also relatively simple. The content of the examination is issued by the temple itself, and it is conducted once a year. Among them, the outstanding ones will be admitted by the two universities. The criteria are not clearly stated, but everyone knows in their hearts. Generally speaking, Most of them entered Menzixue, because Menzixue's admission is easier, and here, they will not be despised by the children of those aristocratic families.

This matter is simple to say, but it is still very troublesome to implement. Lu Zhi and others have been busy for nearly half a year, and only completed the relevant regulations on these contents in September, which has further improved the prince's assessment system, and the current talents of Dahan The reserves are amazing. According to Cai Yong, there are 12 scholars waiting for the assessment this year.

Fewer than 1000 people passed the assessment.

Although the relevant regulations have been completed, they still have to wait until next year if they want to implement them officially. It is definitely not easy for the temple to implement new measures. It is complicated and difficult to describe. However, Cui Gong’s military system has already begun to be implemented. .

Cui Gong's "Political Theory" was still not fully accepted by the emperor, but the arrangement of the soldiers on the border was very popular with the emperor, and he immediately ordered Cao Cao and others to implement it. Putting down the weapons in his hands and becoming a local farmer, Zhang Wen was extremely opposed to this, so much so that he also complained about Cui Gong.

Although they are farmers, they still have the name of guarding the border. They started working in Ningzhou, Hezhou, Jiaozhou, Yangzhou and other places where the Han is the most remote. The emperor also ordered to increase the number of soldiers guarding the border. The territory of the Han is so vast. Of course, more border guards are needed, and more farmers. Hundreds of thousands of border guards are farming at the same time.

Those places where livestock are reluctant to stay on weekdays have ushered in an opportunity for development.

The common people don't know the tricks, they just think that it is not a bad thing to be able to continue farming without swords and soldiers after serving in the army. What's more, just when the military system was first implemented, Cui Gong wrote "Ode to the Sword and Plow" One article, Dedicated to the Son of Heaven, within the school of Hongdu, countless essays about these frontier areas suddenly appeared, most of which were about defending the border for the country, protecting the family and the people.

It can only be said that Cui Gong is worthy of being a hero in the literary world. He can completely change the writing style of the Han Dynasty with a single pen in his hand. Before Emperor Xiaokang, the writings of the Han Dynasty still stayed in the realistic style of describing scenery and things, and the same is true for poetry and prose. , mostly describing things around me, or stories, even Cui Gong has written works like "Good Cow Fu".

When it came to Jianning Dazhi, Cui Gong single-handedly forced the writing style of describing the prosperous age and praising the emperor's literary and martial arts into the mainstream. As a result, the writing style gradually became luxurious, and it was all about today's prosperous age. Through the most difficult and frequent period of disasters, through the role of these prose, let everyone understand the strength of the Han Dynasty and the prosperity of the people.

But now, Cui Gong has once again exerted his efforts to make the frontier fortress literary prose describing the frontier and the military become the mainstream.

There are many ministers in the court who look down on Cui Gong, thinking that he just relied on the pen and ink in his hand to become a Sangong, and he has no practical talent. Just like in the past, when it comes to disaster relief, he is very smart, but let him go to the north to provide disaster relief. However, he could only make a rough idea. The actual disaster relief was done by Xing Ziang and Lu Zhi. Now, he is in the temple, and he is in a daze. What is the use of such a Situ?
They believed that after Zhou Jing, He Xiu, and Wang Fu, Cui Shi was definitely the most incompetent Situ.

However, the emperor had no plans to change Situ's position, and Cui Shi still sat firmly in Situ's position.

November,
The little fat man frowned, walked back and forth anxiously, looked out of the hall from time to time, put his hands behind his back, interlaced his fingers, the several yellow gates in Houde Hall all lowered their heads and breathed carefully , Not daring to disturb the emperor, Hanmen stood outside the Hall of Houde, waiting for the news from the imperial doctor's order. He looked at the extremely anxious emperor, but did not dare to speak.

While waiting, suddenly Huangmen came running quickly and rushed to Houde Hall.

"How is it?"

"what?"

Han Men immediately asked, and before Huang Men could answer him, the little fat man rushed out from the hall, and the little Huang Men wanted to see him immediately, the little fat man waved his hand impatiently, and asked, "How is it, Queen?" Are you okay?"

"Congratulations to the country, congratulations to the country, the queen has given birth to a son, mother and child are safe!"

"Hahaha~~~" The little fat man raised his head and laughed.

"Rewards, rewards, all rewards!! I just said, it must be a son, hurry up, I want to see my son!!" The little fat man was ecstatic, Huangmen led the emperor to go, and the rest of the Huangmen were running fast , followed behind the emperor, when the maid carried the baby out of the palace, the little fat man couldn't bear the excitement in his heart, he almost jumped up, stepped forward quickly, became gentle again, and hugged the baby carefully .

The little guy is wrinkled all over, has no hair, and can't even open his eyes, but he is very light and thin.

Hugging the little guy in his arms, the little fat man smirked for a long time. A kind of blood connection made the little fat man feel extremely shocked and excited. He suddenly raised his head, widened his eyes, and looked at the maid in front of him. , asked: "Can I kiss him?"

The palace lady didn't react a little bit, she didn't even meet the emperor, she was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Your Majesty, of course..." Before she finished speaking, the little fat man kissed the little guy's face fiercely , the little guy suddenly burst into tears, the little fat man was extremely panicked and at a loss, he shouted: "Don't cry, don't cry, I am your father!"

The little guy ignored the emperor's edict and continued to cry. The maid helped coax him for a long time, but the little guy didn't stop crying. The little fat man was sweating profusely. Although the lady knew about this, she was still young. Never had a child before, the Han family and many yellow families gathered around, coaxing together, seeing the little guy crying all the time, the little fat man yelled towards the imperial infirmary: "Come here!"

Fortunately, a court lady came out and hugged the little guy. After coaxing him for a while, the little guy stopped crying.

The little fat man wiped the sweat from his forehead, smiled awkwardly, and said, "I'm going to see the queen, so you can take care of the prince."

"Please!"

At this time, the little fat man looked at the child reluctantly, but he still hurriedly fled here, but he was stopped by the palace maid again. A woman who has just given birth cannot see the emperor, little fat man Not knowing this, he had no choice but to leave. When he walked out, the little guy was no longer there. The Huangmen said that it was the empress dowager who took him away.

The little fat man rushed to the Yongning Palace again. When he arrived, the queen mother was holding the child, telling the maids around her from time to time. When she saw the little fat man walking in, the queen mother smiled all over her face and looked down at the baby in her arms. The little guy, the little fat man visited the queen mother, walked up, and couldn't help being silly, the queen mother repelled the surrounding palace ladies Huangmen.

He said with some displeasure: "Look at you, you have the slightest dignity of being a king. The emperor, a majestic man, behaved so unbearably. Wouldn't it make the palace ladies of the Huangmen laugh?"

"Haha, mother, he is my slave, how dare you laugh at me?"

"Before the ministers, I haven't lost my temper yet!"

"Looking at you like this, you are not afraid of losing the face of Emperor Xiaokang!" The queen mother reprimanded him a few times, looked at the child in her arms, and said with a smile: "However, my grandson is very beautiful and thin. follow mother"

"He didn't follow his mother, he followed me. I'm so handsome, so it must be the same for my son!" The little fat man said with a smile. , I’m afraid I still can’t hold him.”

The little fat man's face was a little dark, he coughed, looked down at the child, carefully took him from his mother's arms, held the child quietly, at this moment, this immature emperor seemed to be He also became mature in an instant. He looked at the little guy's face and asked, "Mum, when I was born... you really couldn't hold me?"

"I don't know. When you were born, I never hugged you"

"Huh?" The little fat man looked at his mother with some doubts.

The queen mother smiled softly, and said: "When you were born, your father was very happy. He held you day and night, and never let you go for a moment. At that time, when you returned to the palace, you cried endlessly. He doesn’t eat or drink, he can only hang around with you in his arms, so you don’t cry or make trouble, he is fat, he hugs you all night, it’s cold at night, but he’s sweating profusely.”

"He hugged me??"

The queen mother did not reply, and the little fat man was silent for a long time.

"Mom, I want to show him around"

The stars are shining, the breeze is blowing, and the breeze is blowing the skirt of the emperor.

The little fat man is holding the child, walking in the night, the night is quiet, there are seven or eight yellow doors in front of him and behind him, holding the lamps, the little fat man looks at the child's face, he still can't see how the child resembles the father Or mother-like, but this still couldn't conceal the love in his heart.

Jianning six years ago, that is, 18 years ago

The big fat man hugged the little guy and walked the same way. At that time, the big fat man was very tired. The birth of the little guy made him feel a kind of relaxation and excitement in his body and mind. With many words, he was on this road. , whispered to the little guy.

"My son, since I came to the throne, I have never dared to relax one day, and I have been extremely tired. Some days, I even thought, if I hadn't been to the river to catch that big fish, would I not be able to do it?" so tired"

"My son, since I was born, I have been full of worries and at a loss. Father, you are a holy son who is comparable to filial piety and filial piety. Since I was born, Father has placed high hopes on you, but, No matter how hard I try, I can't get his approval."

"Now, the situation in the world is getting better. I killed my uncle in pain. I lost my love and my mother. No one in the world can be my confidant. Only you, you are my eldest son. In the future, you will also be the emperor of this big man. The big man is absolutely Can't be lost in the hands of you and my father and son"

"Nowadays, the world is peaceful and the world is in great order and prosperity. However, I know that I am far inferior to my father no matter whether I am in politics or know people. However, I will definitely not disappoint my father's love. His prosperity will be in the hands of you and my father. Continue, you must be better than me, and you must not disappoint your ancestors."

At this moment, nearly 20 years apart, the bodies of the two gradually overlapped, and the little fat man held the sleeping child in his arms.

He raised his head and squinted his eyes.

Only in this way can he stop his tears, so that everyone can't see the pain of the emperor.

The little fat man suddenly realized,
No wonder,
Father is always like this.

ps: The day before yesterday, the old wolf went to a distant place to do some errands. After returning, he had a fever and headache. He was sick for two days. It seems that he has never been sick like this in these years. He still has the habit of dizziness and dare not stop. I was afraid that you would run away, so I worked hard for four or five hours to write a chapter. Wow, the pain is really unbearable, nothing can compare to a headache, I feel like I’m going to see Huanglong, and I’m so shameless to ask for a recommendation ticket.

If things get a little better tomorrow, the [-] characters owed in the past two days will be made up tomorrow.
