In order to go to Bailudong Academy, Zhu Yuanzhang mobilized three thousand cavalry, led by Hua Yun, to clear the way in front, followed by General Chang Yuchun and ten thousand soldiers to follow. Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhang Xi and other civil and military officials, together with meritorious officials,
Let’s go together.
Behind him, there was Feng Guoyong who led the troops to break up the rear. They brought out a total of 35,000 people in front and behind. Zhu Ying was mixed in the team and looked back and forth. He was frightened and knew that he was going to Bailu.
Dong Academy, those who didn’t know better thought that the whole army was going to attack Chen Youliang!
My godfather really spent a lot of money this time.
Looking at this posture, is it possible that Bailudong Academy is being promoted?
It stands to reason that this is just a matter of learning and preparation, and not even a single person will die... But there is such a murderous aura lingering all over the place, going straight into the heart and lungs, which actually makes people feel that it is more dangerous than a real battlefield.
Not long ago, Zhang Dingbian led an army of 30,000 men and stormed Fuliang. Although Zhu Ying was also afraid, he could still cope with it. But today, the murderous intent was ten times as high as before. A hundred times more is really strange!
It is clear that Chen Youliang has been defeated, Jiangzhou has fallen into the hands of his godfather, and the overall situation has been decided, why is it still making people feel upset?
Zhu Ying drove the horse and secretly approached Zhang Ximeng, wanting to ask his eldest brother.
But he discovered that Zhang Ximeng was lowering his eyes, as if he was about to fall asleep.
Zhu Ying was scratching her head, but she didn't dare to disturb Zhang Ximeng.
Just as they continued to be tenacious and were getting closer and closer to the academy, news suddenly came from the front.
"Your Majesty, there are nearly a hundred Jiangxi celebrities and scholars who have come to pay a visit and ask to see your Majesty..."
Hearing what his men said, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly reined in his horse with a stern look on his face. He subconsciously looked back, and Zhang Ximeng slowly opened his eyes with a faint smile on his face.
What is supposed to come will still come.
And more than a hundred people came all of a sudden, which is really surprising. It seems that these scholars are quite brave. I don’t know who gave them to them?
"My lord, since we are here, we can't neglect you!"
Lao Zhu nodded, "Well, let them come over and find an open place. We also want to hear what brilliant teachings these great Confucian scholars have!"
The men agreed and went quickly. Not long after, a group of people wearing dark clothes and fluttering big turbans came in, led by two people. They prostrated together and bowed deeply.
"Caomin Qian Tang, pay your respects to the King of Wu!"
"The common people uncovered Wen'an and paid tribute to the King of Wu."
born:
After we beat Chen Youliang away, we wanted to meet with Jiangxi's elites to discuss the governance of the place. Fu Guo Yu Qian Tang immediately bowed and said, "If I go back to His Highness the King of Wu, here the sky is above and the earth is thick below. There is the Peak of the Wulao and Poyang."
How can it be considered simple when the lake is full of beautiful scenery and the scenery is beautiful in good times?
Lao Zhu's eyes lit up, "What a great talent... Your accent doesn't sound like someone from Jiangxi?"
Qian Tang bowed and said, "The king of Wu has learned that the grass people are from Xiangshan.
Zhu Yuanzhang was startled. Xiangshan was in Ningbo in later generations and was now affiliated with Qingyuan Road. Although it was nominally under the rule of Fang Guozhen, in fact, many scholars in Xiangshan and other places came to work for Zhu Jiajun. Fang Guozhen couldn't control a single Xiangshan person anyway.
It's really interesting that he didn't serve King Wu, but went to Jiangxi, and at this juncture, he led a group of scholars to pay homage to Lao Zhu.
"Qian Tang, how do you think we govern? Why did you come to Jiangxi?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked slowly. This was tantamount to blaming Qian Tang. Why didn't he join the Zhu family army? 2
Qian Tang was not afraid and spoke eloquently, "My master has passed away and has no intention of fame. He only wants to study and cultivate his moral integrity."
"Who is your master?" Lao Zhu asked.
"My mentor, Neo-Confucianism Hongru, surnamed Huang, given name, courtesy name Jinqing."
Huang Ming!
At the mention of this person, Zhu Jiajun couldn't help but be startled, and then it became clear.
Huang Pan was the scholar Hongru who stood up to defend Gangchang and denounced Zhang Ximeng as a traitor when Zhang Ximeng suggested erecting a kneeling statue of Wanyan Gou.
I didn’t expect this person to be dead!
Why did such a good person die? It would be a good thing to have a good debate again!
Now that Qian Tang is here, is it possible that he is complaining to his teacher?
Everyone was thinking that another scholar leader named Jie Wen'an was not that big of a deal, but his uncle was named Jiexisi, who was as famous as Huang and was known as the Four Scholars. During his lifetime, he was a leader of Jiangxi scholars, and he also participated in the revision of the Third
Shi was Gong Bosui's boss.
Jie Wen'an may not be very talented, but relying on his uncle's legacy, he is enough to represent Jiangxi Shilin... Behind them are some scholars and talented people, and so on. None of these people have weapons, and they are all weak.
of readers.
But no one dares to do anything to them!
Even if Chen Liang eats his masters one after another, he still has to be polite to these people. Otherwise, these scholars are backed by the wealthy families in Jiangxi, and most of the wealthy families have many militiamen in their hands.
After the Red Turban Uprising, the Yuan Dynasty's troops were stretched thin and unable to suppress it, so they could only release the landlords' armed forces to help suppress it.
As a result, wealthy families from all over the country took the opportunity to recruit troops and amass money. There were not many people here who were ambitious about the world, and those who wanted to continue to be loyal to the Yuan Dynasty were not rare. Most people just wanted to keep one place safe and wait and see the changes in the world outside.
Whoever wins, they will come over to wave flags and shout, pay tribute and give gifts, praising their lord for being wise. But no dragon is willing to waste time and energy with this group of local snakes, so it is easy for both parties to reach a consensus, even when facing Chen Youliang.
But everyone knows that Zhu Jiajun seems to be different. They don't like the powerful gentry very much, but are particularly interested in poor people. This makes the gentry in Jiangxi extremely worried and hesitant.
When Zhu Yuanzhang entered Jiangzhou, these people did not come over immediately to express their loyalty.
As a result, Zhang Ximeng went to Bailudong Academy. Although he didn't see anyone, the news spread, and then King Wu came again.
The Jiangxi gentry could no longer wait and see, so they had no choice but to come to see him.
After figuring out his identity, Zhu Yuanzhang slowly took two steps back. After all, to deal with this group of people, it still depends on Mr. Zhang. If we let him take action, his head will be chopped off.
Zhang Ximeng said: "Mr. Huang is famous all over the world and is a scholar. Although we have many differences, his death still makes people extremely sad. Qian Tang, you are willing to study with peace of mind and follow in the footsteps of your teacher. This is a good thing.
Qian Tang was slightly startled and looked at the young man in front of him.
Zhang Ximeng!
He was the one who refuted the teacher, made the old man half angry, and then died!
Qian Tang's eyes flashed with a hint of ferocity, but he quickly restrained himself. He bowed and said: "Xiang Zhang is extremely knowledgeable and everyone knows it. The common people don't know as much as Prime Minister Zhang and all the common people should."
He studied diligently, but something happened right now, which made it impossible for the late student to live in his study. He was confused, and there happened to be a lot of fellow students who had the same worries, so he came here to ask for advice.
Zhang Ximeng smiled and said, "Please speak.
Qian Tang pondered for a moment and then said: "Prime Minister Zhang, the common people heard that all the property of Bailudong Academy has been confiscated... Is this just Bailudong Academy, or all academies in Jiangxi!" It is all academies in the world. Zhang Ximeng said with a smile: "The academy is
Why should the place where you study be contaminated by the smell of copper, occupy the land, and compete with the people for profit, when you really shouldn't compete with the people for profit?
Who is fighting against the people?
It’s obvious that you are competing with the people for profit!
Qian Tang was stunned for a while, and then said: "The well-educated Prime Minister Zhang learned that in an academy, there are thousands of people, eating, drinking and having sex, the four treasures of the study, clothes for all seasons, and there are still people to take care of food and clothing... People who study can't drink the northwest wind.
ah!
Zhang Ximeng smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, we have discussed it a long time ago. From now on, Wu Guozhong's Secretariat and the Ministry of Household Affairs will allocate money and food to support the running of the school and completely solve the worries of teachers and students. Qian Tang hesitated again. He didn't know how to answer for a long time.
, could he ask Zhang Ximeng for money?
At this time, Jie Wen'an suddenly spoke, "Excuse me, Prime Minister Zhang, but the money and food should be handed over to the academy? Where should the academy go to get it? What are the standards?"
Zhang Ximeng smiled and said, "From what you said, it seems that you have been in charge of the academy?"
Jiewen settled down for a moment and said hurriedly: "The grassroots took care of Bailudong Academy a few years ago."
Zhang Ximeng nodded, "I see, you don't have to worry. From now on, the number of teachers and students in each academy will be registered by the Yamen. I guarantee that it will be clear.
Everything will be handled in the same way as the yamen clerk... In this way, there is no need to worry about arrears of wages, and everyone can feel at ease.
Heart?
What are you kidding!
Only then did Qian Tang understand that he wanted to confiscate the academy!
Prime Minister Zhang, is it possible that he wants to turn the academy into an official school? But even if it is an official school, the academy should not be deprived of its property. What should we do if we only rely on the money and food from the court and may not have enough?
Zhang Ximeng said with a smile: "Run a school? There are so many people in the world. Everyone wants to study and make progress. Opportunities belong to everyone no matter what. It cannot be perfect. But you can probably rest assured that the court will give some, the local yamen will give some, and then from the private sector."
Collecting some, all in all, will ensure what is needed to run the school.
"Public people?" Qian Tang was shocked, "Xiang Zhang, please forgive me for not understanding this. Are you saying that you want to exploit the people and increase excessive taxes? Doesn't this go against the King of Wu's love for the people?"
Zhang Ximeng was patient and explained patiently.
"How could it be? We took it from the people,
Use it for the people.
In the future, the school will be open to everyone. Even the children of ordinary farmers and soldiers can enroll in it. It will also be the best school in the world, as long as they are good enough!
Jie Wen'an and Qian Tang were both stunned. Their eyes widened, and the people behind them were also confused.
Prime Minister Zhang, who should be admitted to school seems to be subject to the arrangements of the teacher. Only those with both ability and political integrity can be admitted... What if there is no distinction between the good and the bad, and the teachings will produce evil villains?
Before Zhang Ximeng could refute Qian Tang's words, Zhu Ying hugged his shoulders and said to Xu Da with a smile: "Did you hear that? People say that martial arts disciples are evil villains and are not worthy of buying books with them. Xu Da was startled for a moment and pressed it with one hand.
Holding the hilt of the knife, he suddenly took a big step forward and glared at everyone.
