The black robe sighed and clenched his fists: "If this is true, the era when the gentry had a natural advantage in managing politics by relying on cultural knowledge will be gone forever. If all the people at the bottom can read and write.
, then everyone can serve as an official and manage villages and villages. Even in the Qin State, illiterate veterans of the Qin State could conquer the country as long as they knew the laws and dictated them to the villagers after returning to their hometowns.
Ding collects taxes and other things."
The ancestor nodded and said: "Yes, if Liu Yu set up a special department, just like the Imperial College, Imperial College, and County Official School in the previous Ministry of Rites, he established public schools in every village he wanted.
The county has a prefix, all
Children of ordinary people can enter school, and then after learning cultural knowledge, they can go to schools under this department to become teachers and officials of the country. Hehe, in this way, I am afraid that there will not be enough people to go there.
Teaching?”
Cold sweat began to break out on the forehead of the black robe: "Well, what should I do? If Liu Yu really does this and turns teachers into officials of the country and has civilian titles, then those who want to teach will probably
But you will have to break your head. If you don’t have to farm the land yourself, and you don’t have to go to the battlefield to bleed and die, and you can just rely on teaching and helping people learn to read, then I am afraid that most of the lower class nobles will be willing to do it."
The ancestor's eyes narrowed slightly: "So, these methods Liu Yu plans to reform in the future are all fair and square conspiracy, and they are all beneficial to ordinary people and the people. As a wealthy family, maybe one or two times can
To stop it, but as time goes by, it becomes impossible to guard against it. Today I will teach the people how to read, and the next day I will encourage them to do farming and mulberry farming.
Striving for wealth and honor are all things that make people work hard to make progress and change their destiny. Even for aristocratic families, victory in foreign wars in the short term can allow them to obtain more land and satisfy the needs of their nephews and nephews to maintain military honors.
So, two venerable lords, do you still think that these reform methods proposed by Liu Yu cannot be realized due to the selfishness of human nature?"
Doupeng gritted his teeth and said: "What should we do? The nobles and nobles of the aristocratic families have relied on power to suppress the people at the bottom for thousands of years. The source of their power lies in the ability to manage and rule, which can last for generations.
Occupying a high position, formulating laws and ensuring his own interests, Liu Yu is now
He wants to overturn all this so that the descendants of ordinary people at the bottom can learn knowledge and have the ability to govern the country. Once he achieves this, the gentry will really be gone. Everyone will have almost equal status, with the capable ones at the top.
, in the future, a person’s ability can be evaluated through various assessment and policy analysis methods.”
"Just like the Warring States Period, the nobles in the world could seek officials everywhere. If there was no opportunity in their own country, they could go to foreign countries, especially big and powerful countries. This is what Shang Yang did. As a Weiguo, he first went to Wei to seek officials, and then went to Qin.
, This kind of day of traveling thousands of miles and reading thousands of books is still yearned for by the nobles all over the world. It is a kind of freedom that does not need to be ruled or restricted by the monarchs in the world, but can earn a living based on one's ability and gain wealth."
"But if Liu Yu really lets him succeed, all the children of common people in the world will have the right to receive education, especially the compulsory education implemented by the state. By then, everyone will be literate, and everyone will read.
Any advantage will be gone and will soon be replaced by the children of ordinary people. The power of the country will completely fall into the hands of ordinary people. They don't even need to fight for their lives and kill enemies on the battlefield like Liu Yu.
You can get an official position by studying hard in a cold window."
The black robe said coldly: "I don't think it may be that easy. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the kings of various countries had to examine a large number of scholars and recruit talents. This was because of the conflicts in the world. In the era of great strife, there were many countries. If there were no talents, they would
Will be destroyed by other countries, and Liu Yu wants to unify the world,
It is to drive away the foreign barbarians and end the war. After that, there will not be too much pressure for survival. At most, it is to build an army to guard against the barbarians in the north. It can be said that there is peace in the country. Since it is peaceful, it is not the time to employ people.
It requires people to have too much ability to change the law and innovate!"
"Officials in various places only manage according to the law. If they collect too much tax, we can say that this person is a cruel official who squeezes the people's fat and anointing for his own political achievements. This can create public opinion. To attack such people, all we need to do is to
Liu Yushu was defeated by a few typical capable officials from common people, which blocked the way for these common people to rise."
Speaking of this, Heipao sneered: "Just like during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, in order to centralize power and start a war with the Xiongnu, they also engaged in centralization. They also used unconventional methods such as strategies and interviews in the name of recruiting talents.
To replace the former lieutenants as officials, people like Zhu Fuyan and Han Yan were created. In order to cater to the Han Dynasty, they
The emperor's preference was either to persecute the clan princes with false accusations, or to scrape the ground and kill indiscriminately in the local area, making the people resentful. In the end, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty could only execute these capable officials and lackeys with his own hands, using the anger of the people to
To comfort the kings of the Liu family, huh, if Liu Yu really dares to do this, we will use this method to deal with them."
Doupeng nodded: "This is a good idea. These newcomers who have risen from civilians and lower-class nobles to officials are often quick and quick in doing things and use any means. In the land of Nanyan Qingzhou, we help the local tycoons and the Wu family.
By squeezing away these nobles who were in high positions in Lan Xiang's official school, we would be able to catch them and beat them
They abuse the people and use the banner of corruption to punish their crimes, just like the veterans of the Beifu Army who returned to their hometowns to serve as officials. As long as a few of these warriors return to their hometowns and are rampant and lawless examples, arousing public indignation, the final solution is
Give up this path of reform, especially in times of peace, and govern the world by relying on virtue, not ability."
The ancestor smiled slightly: "This is a good idea, but no matter whether it is virtue or ability, it can't stop Liu Yu's popular education, so that all the children of ordinary people can become educated and then have the ability to govern the country.
How to do it. Because if he denies the gods
The Son of Heaven, after defeating the Immortal Emperor, the country will become a human country, and all civilians will become the masters of the country. The right to education is their birthright. Why can the nephews of aristocratic families read and practice calligraphy, but they can't
Is that okay?”
Doupeng's face changed and he said: "Because the former noble family has made great contributions, has enough titles, and has a collection of books at home. This is a public school. At most, we will give the tenants of Zhuangke and the nephew of Ding Buqu first.
Stuff it in and let them crowd out the advancement space of ordinary people's nephews, and finally make it impossible for him to do it!" (End of Chapter)
