Chapter 1789: The whip is beyond reach

Li Dongyang knew that he had covered up well in front of Ye Chunqiu, but there were some things in this world that could deceive others, but could not leverage himself.???

Besides, what a smart person Li Dongyang is, how could he not notice the wavering in his heart?

He couldn't help but ask himself, what's wrong with him? He used to be happy and angry, but why did he criticize Ye Chunqiu so hysterically when he saw Ye Chunqiu?

Is it because of fear? I am afraid that the cruel truth is placed before me, afraid that my ideas for decades and the books of sages I have read for decades, but in the end, it turns out that it is just a joke?

No, not...

Li Dongyang shook his head in panic, denying this idea, and then told himself again and again that the green dragon is evil. Every grass and tree here, even any person, represents the collapse of rituals and music, which is even more chaotic than the chaotic times. The people here are extremely greedy, the people here are shameless, and what is the difference between this... and the barbarians?

Many thoughts popped up in his mind, and he became upset. He subconsciously raised the teacup and wanted to drink it, but found that the teacup was empty. So he put down the teacup quietly, and his heart inevitably began to feel anxious.

At this moment, he couldn't help but have another terrible idea.

In fact...even in a peaceful and prosperous era, it's just like that. At least the people here didn't see any dish on the face, and everyone here had hope on their faces.

Oh……

Li Dongyang couldn't help but start to laugh at himself. How could he have such an idea? It's ridiculous, it's so ridiculous.

At this time, it was already evening, and the bell sounded from the clock tower.

At this time, it was the hour of You and the workshop had not yet finished work, but there were noisy sounds on the streets.

Many scholars jumped onto the street, but they were actually just a group of children.

Some are six or seven years old, some are in their teens, and they are of different sizes. This is the time when colleges are off.

These children are poor and rich. Naturally, there are cars and horses waiting at home, but even the poor children are wearing schoolbags cross-body and playing in groups of people walking, rushing in the streets.

Li Dongyang pursed his lips and looked very unhappy. He hated the schools here because they were too realistic. What they taught was some economic methods, but he had to admit that there were too many children studying in Qinglong.

Everyone is willing to send their children to school. This situation is obviously different from that within the city.

In the pass, people are divided into two extremes to pass on their families by poetry and books, and do not study. Even if they have some spare money at home, they will never send their children to study.

The reason is very sufficient. The road to reading is very narrow, and there is only one way to reading, that is, being an official. If you cannot pass the test, then studying will be meaningless in essence. Therefore, ordinary people will never want to let their children study because it is really difficult to have a way out. What's the use of reading and reading? After all, this is not a knowledge that can make money. There are only a very small number of people who cannot study and seek other livelihoods. But even so, these people are still a few.

However, in Qinglong, this place uses the most realistic method to encourage people to study. In addition to the elementary schools that study mathematics and enlightenment, many advanced schools have various economic classes, and they all learn everything, some manage, some calculate, some study medicine, some study law, and some study workmanship.

When studying here, you never guarantee that you can be an official. Their goal is actually very simple, it only allows you to have a skill in the future. This does not guarantee that you will become successful, but it will allow you to start at a higher starting point after graduation than those who do not study. The salary earned can be several times that of illiterate people, and work is much easier than that of illiterate labor.

It is not like the inner gate. It gives you a distant goal and then spends a lot of time, but it may not be achieved. This is the most practical way to make Qinglong go up and down, no matter the rich, willing to send his children to school.

Looking at these jumping children, Li Dongyang's face finally calmed down a lot.

This is where he feels hesitant.

No matter what they learned, at least they could read and write, read newspapers, and even if they were not literati and officials who were always interested in governing the country and pacifying the world,... at least they would never be foolish people.

Li Dongyang closed his eyes and sighed.

But my thoughts were deeper.

There are many things he can no longer answer, or what he sees and hears are no longer answered by his decades of study and decades of experience in dealing with people.

He felt that the contradiction in his heart was difficult to find the answer for a moment, so he had to smile bitterly and subconsciously wanted to serve tea again, but the tea cup was empty again, and his turbid eyes became more and more confused.

At this time, the setting sun was setting, and the rays of light were shining, but Li Dongyang's face was even less peaceful.

He has reached the age of no longer worrying about his destiny. At the age of knowing destiny, he has already taken the right and wrong, life, death, honor and disgrace.

The only thing he doubted was what his eyes saw, ears heard, and hearts felt.

……………………

Just when Ye Chunqiu was anxious, fast horses came back from the capital.

Ye Chunqiu had become more concerned about the matters in the capital, so he asked him to read all the letters and documents from the capital immediately.

He did not dare to delay major events at all.

When Wang Hua was writing a book for him, Ye Chunqiu realized that the problem was even more serious than he had imagined.

Your Majesty has set sail and headed south.

It is impossible to persuade him to return now. When he arrived at the sea, His Majesty became a wild horse that was out of control. It was too late to stop him.

The officers and soldiers, boatmen, craftsmen and laborers were accompanied, and there were 37,000 people. This was a big number, but this number did not make Ye Chunqiu feel at ease, because he remembered Li Dongyang's words in his heart. What if His Majesty encountered misfortune and bad news came?

Yes, who can guarantee that among these 30,000 people, there are no evil people? When it comes to the vast ocean, all laws and magnanimity no longer exists.

Even some people who have bad intentions have already arranged their confidants to the navy.

Ye Chunqiu was anxious and couldn't help but curse in his heart. Zhu Houzhao is so uneasy.
