Chapter 151 I have no shame, I just want to do things
The palace was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and the beaming Empress Dowager Zhang even gave out rewards to everyone.
She held Hu Shanxiang's hand, her brows filled with joy, "Your body and bones are the most important thing in the world, but you must protect yourself."
Sun Ruowei on the side lowered her head sadly.
The girls in the palace are all about their belly.
Even if he fails in the palace battle and is imprisoned in the cold palace, or even dies directly, as long as he has a son, it is not considered a defeat.
Even if the son succeeds in ascending to a great position, there will eventually be a day when he can avenge his mother.
Uh. Tianqi and Chongzhen are not included in this list.
The two brothers didn't even dare to avenge their mother. They were afraid of any gossip. It's no wonder they were so cowardly and their country would perish.
Without a son, it is really nothing.
At this moment, Sun Ruowei could only pray that the queen would have a daughter in her belly.
Otherwise, as long as the Queen's eldest son is not too bastard, no one can shake his status.
Li Yunze finally came back, but his outfit, which he had just returned from the fields, and even his boots were still full of mud, made everyone stunned.
"Your Majesty is worried about national affairs." The first person to speak was Sun Ruowei, "He personally goes to the people to do the spring plowing, which is really a model for a human being."
The words were very nice, even Li Yunze raised the corners of his mouth to express satisfaction.
It's just that her thoughts are too urgent, and everyone can see what she means.
The queen is pregnant, so the imperial concubine will of course be anxious.
Li Yunze sighed secretly, but his expression remained unchanged.
After saying yes, he went forward to express condolences to Hu Shanxiang. What was left behind was Sun Ruowei's sad figure.
Queen Mother Zhang, who watched all this, had nothing to say except sighing.
Saying good things for Sun Ruowei at this time may have the opposite effect and even offend more people.
Li Yunze didn't stay long. He said some caring words and sat for a while before getting up and going back to continue his official duties.
Compared to his sons, Li Yunze paid more attention to Nuer Gandusi's affairs.
When he arrived at the imperial study, Jian Yi was already waiting there.
"Jian Qing." Li Yunze didn't talk nonsense and came to Jian Yi with a sack of soybean seeds. "You know this thing, right?"
"Your Majesty, I have also been to the ground."
Jian Yi took one look and smiled, "This is soybean, one of the five grains. I naturally recognize it."
Soybean is a native crop of China. It was called Shu in ancient times. After the Qin and Han Dynasties, it has replaced Shu and is called soybean.
Li Yunze explained, "This is a good thing. It can be used to squeeze oil. The bean dregs can also be used to make cakes to feed livestock."
"I know." Jian Yi nodded and replied, "Soybeans can nourish the land."
"I am preparing to promote this product on a large scale." Li Yunze put the cloth bag in his hand into Jian Yi's hand and "leave it to you to handle it."
"Your Majesty." Jian Yi first carefully put down the bag, and then saluted Li Yunze. "Although this product is good, the yield is not high. And large-scale promotion requires a large area of land. Promotion of this product will inevitably lead to the occupation of grain fields.
, which will lead to a reduction in food production."
In an era of low productivity, or in an era where food depends on the sky, food is the most important material, and nothing is more important than food.
As one of the five grains, soybeans have many advantages but not many can be grown. The reason is that the yield is not high.
In the same planting area, other grains are much more abundant than soybeans, which are of course different crops.
Li Yunze's style is more like patting people on the head for promotion. Jian Yi is very afraid that this kind of thing will lead to a reduction in grain production, which is a fatal matter.
"Jian Qing misunderstood."
Li Yunze quickly understood, "I'm not talking about promoting soybeans in the pass and occupying farmland. Fan Zhong has already cleaned up Nuergandusi. You go there to promote soybeans."
Liao land is extremely fertile and is one of the three largest black soils in the world.
Even a pinch of soil can produce oil, and the vast area is very suitable for large-scale planting of soybeans.
As for the oil extraction equipment, it’s not a big deal, you just need to spend money to buy it.
Jian Yi was not angry because the emperor asked him to farm, but he was thinking and analyzing carefully.
"The Liao land is vast and fertile. It can be used to grow soybeans. But there is a shortage of people there. How can we cultivate it without enough manpower?"
As early as the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Liao region had already been initially developed.
In the Tang and Song Dynasties, it was further developed.
However, years of wars, the rise and fall of many tribes, and the cold weather in winter have kept the population there from being pushed up.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was okay to say that there were landless refugees everywhere in the pass, and the refugees could be moved out of the pass in a big way.
But now, after experiencing the brutal rule of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty and the large-scale chaos at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, Guan Nei is in a period of steady development and population recovery, and the land has basically been redistributed.
It is really difficult to migrate on a large scale to the bitter cold Liao land.
"There will be no division of land this time." Li Yunze had already planned. "There are many tribes in the area. Although many have been cleared away, there must still be remnants. You spend money to hire people to arrest them and put them into work in the imperial village. Then write to North Korea and let them
Send people over to do the work. Then the Japanese country will increase the intensity of arrests and purchases, and get more people to open up wasteland and plant soybeans in Liao land."
Jian Yi saluted, "Your Majesty, if there is no division of land, these people may not be efficient in their work."
"Then pretend that we want to allocate land to them. After working for three to five years, they will all be put on ships and shipped to the islands to fend for themselves."
Jian Yi was shocked when he said this. This was so tasteless.
"I'll leave this matter to you. Within three years, I want to see that the soybeans in Liaodi are sufficient for consumption."
Jian Yi had no choice but to bow and accept.
Li Yunze did not rush to fight as soon as he took office, but first quietly sorted out the internal affairs.
The most important thing in this is to implement the three methods of giving up.
On the surface, he implemented the Sanshe method to replace the imperial examination. In fact, he wanted more.
Since the introduction of the imperial examination, countless scholars around the world have wanted to reach the top of their lives through the imperial examination.
After all, the sages have made it clear that "there is a house of gold in the book, and there is a beauty like jade in the book."
But the imperial examination held every three years only selects hundreds of people.
And there are more than hundreds of thousands of scholars in the world.
There are so many scholars who study all day long, but most of them do not have the opportunity to go to high school.
In the end, it not only produced a lot of waste materials that cannot be lifted by hands or shoulders, but also wasted a lot of resources.
Li Yunze made the Sanshefa very large, for example, the Imperial Academy expanded its enrollment to several thousand people.
Schools in various prefectures and counties are also recruiting as many students as possible.
Then, he proposed the first restriction.
'Those over thirty years old are not allowed to enter the dormitory.'
It is normal for scholars to read books for a lifetime and take exams for a lifetime.
The white-headed old man is still a child, which is also very common.
Li Yunze made a rule that scholars over thirty years old could neither enter school nor take the imperial examination, which meant they were directly unemployed.
Of course, he is not trying to destroy these people's lifelong hopes, but forcing them to change careers.
Li Yunze began to establish royal academies in various places, specifically recruiting those scholars who could not enter the academy to be teachers.
The content is very simple, that is, teaching the simplest literacy, the simplest moral enlightenment, as well as simple geography, humanities, history, arithmetic, etc.
Moreover, there is no tuition fee for children of appropriate age to enter the Royal Academy, and teachers are not allowed to charge tuition fees.
All expenses are borne by the internal government.
To put it simply, this is compulsory education in Ming Dynasty.
For those scholars who cannot afford to go to a school, being a teacher can bring you a salary and status, and you can even retire at an advanced age, which can be considered a good way out.
But the problem is that most scholars study for the golden house and Yan Ruyu, not for teaching and educating people.
After the terms came out, people immediately started making trouble.
There were also people in the court speaking out for these people.
Li Yunze's response was very simple. All the people in the court had a court battle, then they stripped off their clothes and dragged them out and drove them away.
Those who made trouble, set fire to the Yamen, and those who insulted the Holy Gong were all arrested and sentenced as they should be without mercy.
As executions began one after another in various places, heads fell to the ground one after another. What had almost caused a stir before was quickly calmed down.
Since the Song Dynasty, scholars have no character to speak of.
Li Yunze just borrowed the methods of later generations of Tartars and suppressed these weaklings very easily.
They can engage in conspiracy and conspiracy, but they definitely don't have the guts to go head-to-head.
This matter is aimed at all readers, because everyone’s age will grow with time.
If you are not selected among the Imperial College at the age of thirty, you will be driven away.
Either go to the academy and become a teacher, or go home and eat by yourself.
Such things as treating scholars favorably would never happen to Li Yunze.
Scholars are very tough when it comes to hard work, but they use various means to be soft.
We dare not attack academies in various places, because the academies bear the royal brand, and no one dares to seek death.
But they began to get together, persuading and threatening each other, and not allowing anyone to become a teacher in the academy.
As for the loss of income, some large households with ulterior motives have provided money to temporarily support them.
In their opinion, no academy can survive without teachers.
As long as the emperor takes the first step back, they will have plenty of ways to make him back down again and again!
Li Yunze has always scorned this method.
Because he never cares about face, nor is he afraid of the so-called world's long-term reputation. He doesn't care about Qingshi Zhaozhao or anything like that.
You can scold me and write whatever you want, I'm just doing my own thing.
Jinyiwei went out again to carefully check who was the leader, who initiated the move, and who paid for it.
After that, the imperial edict was taken out, and houses were searched and people arrested.
I won’t talk nonsense to you at all, I will directly interrogate him and deal with him.
No matter who it is, it all ends the same.
One of the episodes was that when the house was searched, the national debt was not confiscated, and the previous promise was firmly fulfilled, and the house was not confiscated.
This also further stimulated confidence in national debt and purchasing power.
Li Yunze is a man who has a lot of money and uses next year's money to pay back this year's money.
There are reports of grief and indignation from the imperial court. Your Majesty kills without restraint. Aren't you afraid that the history books will have the same reputation as Xia Jie and Shang Zhou?
Li Yunze's response was only one sentence, that is.
