"Your Highness, there are now 41 primary schools and two intermediate schools in Shandong Province. The simplified Chinese characters have been successfully implemented, and the pinyin teaching carried out by the Ministry of Education has been consistent with other provinces in the Ming Dynasty in terms of pronunciation." Kong Yuanyong reported his achievements to Ulutus.

Because it was the Han area of ​​the Central Plains, the academic style of the Ming Dynasty was not satisfactory in Shandong Province. Especially for the existence of local tyrants, they used land and farms as their foundations and hired teachers whom they recognized as teachers from their homes as teachers, greatly diverting the number of students who should have flowed into the school.

Those illiterate Zhuangzi people saw that their masters did not go to the Ming people's school, so they were even more reluctant to send their children to the school. In addition, the Ming schools greatly simplified Chinese characters, which undoubtedly touched the sensitive nerves of many scholars. In terms of pronunciation, they also began to pay attention to national consistency.

After local scholars in Shandong learned about it, they only felt that Mingguo was destroying their cultural foundation. All these things also made it extremely difficult for the education work in Shandong Province to carry out.

This time, while the Shandong tyrants were collectively moved away, the local clan forces disappeared. Many scholars who usually speak were from powerful families and had no right to speak. At this time, Ulutus asked Kong Yuan, who was behind Saint Kong, to take on the position of academic administration, to be fully responsible for and carry out educational affairs in Shandong Province.

With the additional conditions of providing lunch, ordinary people who lack the instigation of powerful people and intimidation by scholars, they could not help but send their children to school.

Some scholars with low status were finally willing to come out to serve as teachers in the school under the leadership of Kong Yuanyong. They were not afraid of being laughed at and said "Niudong" (Liaodong is still a barbarian for the locals in Shandong).

"Well! This is done well. But the intermediate school can build one more. And the students recruited need to be recruited by men and women, and there is no difference in teaching." Ulutus pointed and suddenly asked again: "Do you know about Japan?"

Kong Yuanyong looked at the two ministers present, thinking about the rumors that the Ming Dynasty won a great victory in Japan not long ago published in the Great Ming Daily, and thought for a moment: "Your Highness is asked to punish him. I used to live in Qufu for a long time, and the news is blocked. Now I am holding a position of academic affairs and rarely ask about the words of Japan, and I don't know much about it.

However, when it comes to strategies to cure Japanese, I believe that in order to achieve long-term stability, we need to vigorously promote education, teach the Japanese people to recognize etiquette, respect respect, and be loyal to the Ming Dynasty for generations."

"Well! You sit down too." Seeing that he was cautious in speaking, Ulutus did not break the casserole and asked to the end. Kong Yuanyong didn't know Ulutus's thoughts and dared not ask. He could only sit down cautiously.

Ulutus followed and said to the two ministers: "For the matter of Japan, we must divide it into pieces. However, if the royal family wants to enfeoff, the shogunate cannot be left behind. The royal family and the shogunate are mortal enemies, which is very beneficial to our Ming Dynasty. If the shogunate is eradicated, the royal family will dominate it and will easily cause trouble. Moreover, Japan is an island country with a narrow land and sparse population. If the land is divided, it can also add more restraints to it.

Confucius's words are not bad, and education is a major event for long-term stability. And the Japanese country is coming to admire the Central Plains' knowledge. Earlier, there was a crossing the sea to borrow seeds during the Tang Dynasty. Now that Japan is making the Japanese country surrender, it will definitely have to promote the Ming country's school in its country.

This important task, Kong Xuezheng, needs you to go there."

Speaking of this, Ulutus's eyes suddenly fell on Kong Yuanyong.

"Ah!" Kong Yuan was surprised, and then he realized that he was acting too much, so he immediately knelt down and accepted the order and thanked Ulutus for his kindness.

But his thoughts were like blood, a little discouraged. After all, Japan was really a place where barbarians were transformed into foreign countries. Isn’t it the same as being exiled to the country of the barbarians to promote etiquette and education?

Valley

In addition, Ulutus also asked him to use more of the teachings of Saint Confucius. He allowed the Confucius family members who were "full of poetry and books" to follow in Japan to promote the education of interests.

I think this job is difficult to do.

"Kong Qing has made great contributions to his journey. Just as good news came from the front line, the land of Qufu has been taken back by our army. You can invite the ancestral tablet of your Kong family to return to your hometown." Ulutus decided to give him a sweet gift so that Kong Yuan could do his best to do things in the future.

However, after this chaos, the Kong family's property in Qufu was plundered. In order to destroy the Kong family's influence in Qufu to a greater extent, the "bandits" also burned the huge Kong family to white ground.

So even if the Kong family moved back to Qufu, they would not be able to gain a foothold for a while. And their land would not be necessary because it had been allocated to the new immigrants by the government.

This also forced the descendants of the Kong family to leave the warm nest of savoring the mountains and go to more places in the Ming Dynasty.

Seeing that Ulutus had made a decision, Quandong did not persuade him anymore. He just stepped down and drafted an imperial edict to give it to the Japanese navy Wanhu Zuer.

At this time, two ships were sailing westward on the sea. They were Japanese nobles dressed in luxurious clothes. There were royal families, shogunate families, court officials and ministers affiliated with both sides, and the two sides.

No matter how noble their identities were, they now had only one identity, that is, the prisoner of the Ming army. This trip to the west was also a tragic fate.

Also feeling that there is Liu Heima, the commander of Jinan Prefecture, who is still unsuccessful.

His grandfather Liu Bolin was from Jinan Prefecture and served as Qianhu, Weining Fangcheng. Although his surname was changed to Liu, if we trace his ancestors, we can still be related to the former Emperor Taizong of Liao Kingdom Yelu Deguang.

When the Jin Dynasty was in great rebellion in Xijing, his grandfather surrendered to the Mongols. Later, Liu Heima followed his grandfather to fight hundreds of battles with the Mongols, and his military merits accumulated. When the old Shandong and East and West Roads of Shandong were also taken away by the Khan Court, Mu Huali thought of Liu Heima, who had settled in Shandong, so he returned to Jinan Prefecture and became a general guarding the country.

Influenced by mountain ranges such as Mount Tai, Mount Lu, and with the barriers of Zibo and Tai'an Prefecture, Jinan Prefecture does not directly border the ruling areas of the Ming Dynasty. In terms of public security, it is not as chaotic as the two prefectures and one prefecture in Yidu.

Although it was also affected by the refugee tide three months ago, Jinan Prefecture is not the end of the refugee. Therefore, as long as you guard important sections, those refugees who are determined to flee to Ming will not be delayed.

This makes Jinan Prefecture a place on the east and west roads of Shandong, one of the rare rich prefectures.
