Chapter 2489: Xiangxu needs elementary education to study
Liu Muzhi frowned slightly: "Jinnu, if you want to learn literature, you need to study, but this study is the most difficult thing. I have relied on our family's collection of books to study since I was a child. You have also seen
, they are all bamboo slips. When I was a child, my mother taught me the simplest and most basic elementary education such as the Three Character Classic and Disciple Regulation. When I got a little older, I studied classics such as poetry, calligraphy, etiquette, and music. After I have a certain foundation in the future,
, entered Xiangxu in the prefectures and counties, and began to study the thoughts of various schools of thought. It was also at this time that he truly became a scholar."
Liu Yu softly said "Oh": "Hangxu?"
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Well, it is a place for the scholars' children to study and study. In the capital is the Imperial College and the Imperial College. After graduating from the academy, you can directly become an official. As for the various prefectures and counties, it is called the Imperial College.
Xiangxu, in the Shang Dynasty, the place where people read and understand things was called the preface, while in the Zhou Dynasty, it was called Xiangxu. Together, it was Xiangxu. Dong Zhongshu, a great scholar in the Han Dynasty, wrote to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to depose hundreds of schools of thought and establish a sole authority.
The man who respected Confucianism once said a famous saying: Universities are used to educate the country, and they are established to educate the country. From then on, Taixue and Guozijian were established in the capital for the children of powerful people and high-ranking officials to study?
The nephew of a scholar from the state and county."
Having said this, Liu Muzhi grinned mysteriously: "Jinnu, let me tell you a secret? Don't tell anyone, right? Actually? Back then, I went to study in Xiangxu, Nanyanzhou, and my wife,
She also disguised herself as a man and mingled in there to study? She was my classmate for two years? I didn’t even know she was a woman.”
Liu Yu's eyes widened at this moment: "What, there is such a thing?! I only heard you say that you went to the city to study, but I didn't expect that you actually went to beg your wife."
Liu Muzhi said angrily: "Bah, bah, bah? I was only ten years old at that time? She was only nine years old? How could anyone marry a wife so early? It's just? Later I found out that at that time, she was treating me very badly.
My heart secretly promised."
Speaking of this, Liu Muzhi shook his head: "Actually, the Jiang family was originally a middle-class family, but they moved to Jingkou after leaving office? That's why I had the opportunity to study and practice calligraphy with Qianwen? At that time? I was among the people in Xiangxu.
Stand out from the crowd? Naturally, she has admired me since childhood, and when she got older, she asked my father-in-law to recruit me as my son-in-law."
Liu Yu smiled and said: "I remember that Jiang Changshi also held sacrificial wine ceremonies in the state for several years? Could it be that he was just to test out your future son-in-law?"
Liu Muzhi smiled: "You guessed it right. In fact, my father-in-law has a very good vision. He is much better than many children of aristocratic families who are drunk and dreamy in the capital. He has seen the decay and decline of the aristocratic family, so early
I resigned from my post and went to Jingkou, a place that produces proud soldiers. I originally wanted to see if I could find some heroes from the wilderness and recommend them to serve the country, but I didn't expect that they would find me first."
Liu Yu nodded: "Xianzhi was also praised by your father-in-law later, including Liu Yi's brother-in-law Zheng Xianzhi. You can be regarded as a few talented and learned people born and raised in Jingkou. But did Jiang Changshi tell you later?
, why do you come to Jingkou to look for talented people? Ordinarily, you can find more talented people in other places, especially places with prosperous literary styles."
Liu Muzhi's eyes narrowed slightly: "Because this is Jingkou. Jingkou people have strong personalities, are brave and aggressive, and attach great importance to the friendship between neighbors. If you find someone from other places, or even from Jiankang's aristocratic family,
, when you join the army and become a civil servant, the habits of the people in Jingkou are too different. If you are not careful, you will end up like Xie Wan back then. As a commander, he has the airs of a high-ranking family in the capital and looks down on the warriors in Jingkou.
If this is the case, the civil and military affairs will be separated, and there will be no fighting ability. Therefore, my father-in-law wants to find talented people from the local people in Jingkou. It does not necessarily need to be talented and capable of reciting poems and composing poems. He only needs to be able to manage the countryside and write military Chinese.
The ability of the book is sufficient.”
Liu Yu breathed a long sigh of relief: "I understand, because fellow villagers know the basics and have trust, and you can't look down on us friends who have grown up playing together. Jiang Changshi's trick is really high. But
, it would be better if we could all go to school like you back then."
Liu Muzhi curled up his lips and said, "There is really nothing I can do about this. You haven't taken these elementary school courses and you don't know the basic words, so you can't enter the preface. Otherwise, even if you come to listen, you won't understand.
.Do you still remember how we taught you back then? It was to write on the ground one by one with a twig. It took you several days to recognize each word. I wanted to give up so many times. If you hadn't given me something to eat,
Yes, and you are threatening to beat me if you don't teach me, I'm afraid I really can't teach you to recognize these words."
Liu Yu said thoughtfully: "So, the reason why we are not allowed to go to school to read and read is not because the court did it deliberately, but because there is no such condition? Because there are no bamboo slips and no collection of books, it is impossible to make people learn to read.
basis?”
Liu Muzhi nodded: "That's the truth. So since ancient times, scholars may be very poor and have only a few walls, but as long as they have a few volumes of elementary school textbooks and four books and five levels of introductory reading materials, they can read and write."
After a thousand words, you can go to real school. I am very lucky. My family has these books, but your family does not. This is your misfortune."
Liu Yu sighed: "My mother died when I was born, and my stepmother took me home. She was a female prostitute. When she got married, she had no books and only some dowry. Because she wanted to support our three brothers, she sold them early.
When I was young, I would collect tree branches and rice ears and sell them for money, or I would look after cattle and work as a servant to supplement the family income. If I hadn't met you and learned hundreds of characters, I'm afraid I would be like Tieniu now, with no big words.
Recognize one. However, I believe that this phenomenon should not exist and must be solved. If the vast majority of the people in the world are illiterate, then knowledge and culture will always be controlled by the wealthy families. I did not understand this truth before
, thought they only controlled the world by occupying land and industry. Now I understand that their real power is knowledge and culture, because if you want to rule the world and educate all people, you cannot use the sword, you can only use the pen.
!”
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Now you finally understand this, slaves, but there is nothing you can do about it. Preserving books and culture has always been the most difficult thing. The reason why the historical materials of the Yin and Shang Dynasties are difficult to find is because they are carved on tortoise shells.
Above, after the Zhou Dynasty, bamboo slips were used. In order to preserve them for a long time, they needed to be baked into volumes, which was very troublesome. Literary masters in the past dynasties often organized their disciples and disciples to copy classics so that they could be passed down from generation to generation. Mail
Slave, I understand your good intentions, but you are not a god, so you cannot have a book for everyone in the world."
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "So, how about printing and rubbings?"
