Section 0787 Request of the Concubine

There is also an unwritten tacit rule within the general office, but if it is expanded, millions of people will be affected, then it will no longer be a trivial matter, so Li Shimin needs to come up with a plan in advance.

Li Shimin also said: "The Ministry of Industry, the matter of the silver mountain of Wadao can be announced internally in an appropriate amount. I want to help the willow wood dig up a thousand stones of silver a year, and I want to fully fund the iron donkey workshop, which is of great use. Therefore, I decided to give full support to the research, and even more to the production, and in half a month, the report of the Huating Yarn Mill was sent back to Chang'an, and you will know the power of the iron donkey. ”

Next, the three petty officials of the Ministry of Industry who came to observe fainted on the spot after hearing Iwami Ginzan's encrypted report.

"Output, just this point of interest, isn't it just a silver mountain." Li Shimin scolded with a smile, but he was very happy with such a result.

Yao Silian suddenly said, "Sage, we may be able to release some news from Yinshan. ”

"Benefits?"

"The people naturally believed that the Tang Dynasty was strong, and the Japanese people would also think that it was the silver mountain that was discovered that caused the endless killing of the nobles of the Japanese island. The Goguryeo people may also trade their mines and the Tang in exchange for the rest of the goods. ”

After thinking about it for a long time, Li Shimin shook his head: "I don't feel that these benefits outweigh the disadvantages, you can discuss them." ”

The meeting lasted until the evening, and it was basically about the occupation of Wajima.

Li Shimin was enjoying happiness in exhaustion, and the territory of Datang expanded again and the population increased again.

As long as Jieli is killed, there will definitely be no more foreign wars in the next three or five years, and it will indeed take some effort to stabilize Goguryeo to start entering the period of recuperation.

There is one thing that Li Shimin is still confident, and Goguryeo does not dare to go to war easily.

If Goguryeo dared to fight, then Beisha City would have been dyed red with blood at this time.

At night, Li Shimin sat in a small house holding his chin and pondering, thinking about whether it was necessary to meet the envoys of Goguryeo in person, and the concubine who ordered someone to set up a supper on the side looked at Li Shimin silently.

When the palace maids retreated, a smile appeared on Li Shimin's face, and Concubine Yin dared to step forward.

Li Shimin figured it out, and it was nothing to meet with the Goguryeo envoys again, but the news of the silver mine should continue to be blocked, and it should not be known there for the time being.

At this time, Concubine Yin sat next to Li Shimin: "Sage, do you want to have a glass of wine?" ”

"A glass of wine."

Concubine Yin immediately poured a glass for Li Shimin with a wine bottle, and said at the same time: "The concubine has always wanted to ask the sage, I don't know if this matter is right or wrong, if there is a mistake, please ask the sage to punish it." ”

"What?"

"You'er is ten years old, and the concubine wants to send him to study in Tiangong Academy."

After listening to Concubine Yin's words, Li Shimin was stunned.

Tiangongyuan is a temple that ordinary people yearn for in their hearts, and there have long been rumors in Chang'an City that people who have not studied there will be ten times more difficult to become a ghost worker in this life.

Or if you want to go further, it is impossible to become a heavenly worker.

That is, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, would personally go to the Tiangong Academy once a year to encourage thousands of students.

But after all, it's the learning of the common people.

Li Shimin knew that dozens of children from low-class and small aristocratic families went to study this year, but he had never heard of any children from big aristocratic families enrolling in school.

"How could you suddenly have such an idea?" Although Li Shimin didn't understand, he was still talking to Concubine Yin very kindly.

In any case, as a father, he also needs to understand what the child's mother thinks.

"Saint, it is better to have a skill than a fortune. The concubine heard that Xiaorui, the son of King Zhun'an, was dismissed, and he was able to have daily expenses with the help of several brothers. His son has no lord, similar to a commoner, and has two county examinations in spring and autumn every year, and his son has not been admitted to the county school three times, for fear that there will be another generation, and even his livelihood will become a problem, and he will not be able to live on relief. ”

Li Xiaorui, Li Shimin's cousin, clan.

After hearing this, Li Shimin began to think.

Concubine Yin said again: "Thinking about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, if the so-called Uncle Liu Huang is not in chaos at the end of the Han Dynasty, I am afraid that he will make a living by weaving straw shoes for the rest of his life." ”

"What a so-called!" Li Shimin was very appreciative when he heard this.

Li Shimin asked: "The official school of the Tang Dynasty is divided into six courtyards. Graduate School, Guozi Academy, Chongwen Academy, Medical Academy, Tiangong Academy, Shence Academy. You chose the Tiangong Academy, which really puzzled me. ”

The six colleges mentioned by Li Shimin are not six colleges, but six different educational routes under a set of education system.

The university is the top college in Datang, which is the first to learn classics and meanings, supplemented by humanities, geography, management and other contents. It can be said that it is a higher education institute established for the training of officials, and it can be said that you must understand a little bit of knowledge, such as an iron donkey, you will definitely not learn to make it, but you must also know what this thing is and what role it can play.

Students who enter the university are excellent advanced officials, such as the Qipin County Order, before they can be promoted, they must study at the university for at least two more years before they can be promoted.

Without going through the university officials, the five grades are the limit of life.

The Guoziyuan is also prepared for the training of officials. However, there is a slight deviation between the content of the lecture and the university, the content is shallow, only young nobles are recruited, and if you need to study again in the future, it will only take half a year.

Regardless of its true history, it is now a place to train technical officials.

Arithmetic, accounting, engineering, hydrology, etc., the academies of technical officials, here are the schools of the minor aristocracy and the common people.

The Medical Academy is very special, the family of the five surnames also sends their children to school, and there are many children of tenants with extraordinary qualifications, and they study not only medicine, but also astronomy, Tai calendar, geography and other disciplines of Taoism.

Tiangongyuan is a school of craftsmen, from blacksmiths to carpenters.

Those with low qualifications learn to work as technicians, those with high qualifications learn to work as technicians, and geniuses learn real mechanical disciplines. The Huayuan Forbidden Area selected several people from here to go to work and study.

In the end, the Divine Courtyard does not admit civilians, and is eligible to enter here by virtue of military merit and family background.

For example, Qin Qiong's son, as long as he is old and does not need to be assessed, he can go to school directly, and he must be in the class of senior military attachΓ©s, this is the military academy of Datang.

Ordinary people want to come here to study, either they are heroes of a hundred battles, or brave soldiers who kill the field, or a captain with military achievements, a low-level captain, etc.

It is precisely because of this already systematic education system that Li Shimin does not understand why Concubine Yin wants to send her son to Tiangong Academy.

Concubine Yin explained: "You don't like to kill, and he has no interest in reading and writing. The concubine also heard a rumor, which was told to me by the Wei family, that the Wei family, the Du family, the Pei family, the Liu family and several other families in Chang'an City, she heard that the family was cleaning up the lazy clansmen, and she guessed that one day, the Tang Dynasty might not give the idle clan plain food. ”
