Chapter 237 Cooking Without Rice
Yang Dingyu was incoherent and regretted.

As long as he spends a little time in normal times and listens to Yang Xiu's lectures, he won't be ashamed in front of Yang Biao today.

What a great opportunity, but screwed up by myself.

Looking at Yang Ding, who was described as wretched, Yang Biao felt disgusted from the bottom of his heart. He wanted to ridicule him, but when he saw Cheng Heng and the other soldiers who were full of expectations, he suddenly felt ashamed.

No matter how stupid Yang Ding is, how can he be more difficult to teach than those illiterate Qiang Hu soldiers?

Cheng Heng can teach these ordinary soldiers to memorize a small part of "The Analects of Confucius", why can't he say a few words for these soldiers.

Yang Biao said with a smile: "The three provinces of the general are quite compatible. If you can persist every day, you will be the pillar of the country in the future."

Yang Ding was stunned, looked at Yang Biao, and blinked vigorously.

That's right, Yang Biao actually praised me?
In Yang Ding's suspicion, Yang Biao raised his hand and waved it lightly.

The soldiers who had already surrounded all held their breath and listened intently.

Yang Biao saw it in his eyes and felt hot in his heart.

If what Yang Xiu said can be realized, these people in front of them are no longer brutal and rude Xiliang soldiers, but soldiers who know honor and disgrace and abide by integrity.

It is not only ZTE, but it is also possible to reproduce the kingly way of the three generations.

The master taught three thousand disciples and founded eight schools of Confucianism, which have been passed down to this day, with hundreds of thousands of Confucian disciples.

If he could go one step further and train these tens of thousands of soldiers to become disciples of Confucianism, what kind of opponent would he be able to match?
Perhaps, this is the intention of the emperor's re-education.

Emperor Shengming, we are too old-fashioned to wait.

Yang Biao suppressed the excitement in his heart, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Three generations of government, those who can fight with arms are all national soldiers..."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty." Pei Jun quickly walked in, his face flushed slightly.

Liu Xie put down the book in his hand and looked at Pei Jun.

This newcomer is a bit reckless, if his father finds out, he will have to be scolded.

"What's the matter?"

"Grandfather Yang of Dahonglu gave a lecture in the rear general's camp, and the audience was blocked." Pei Jun stretched out his hand and pointed outside. "Situ and Sikong both went to the city to wait and see after receiving the news."

Liu Xie was surprised, got up and walked out.

Cai Yan also got up immediately, took a pen and ink and a notebook, and hurriedly followed.

When Liu Xie came to the tower, he saw Situ Zhaowen and Sikong Zhang Xi, Taichang Wang Jiang, Tingwei Xuanbo and others were also there.

Seeing the emperor approaching, the ministers stepped aside and bowed to salute.

Liu Xie came to the city wall, condescending, and saw the crowd in the camp outside the city at a glance.

Although he couldn't see his face clearly from a distance, Yang Biao's stalwart body was very clear under the light of the fire.

"What book is Da Honglu talking about?" Liu Xie asked.

Zhao Wen and Zhang Xi shook their heads in embarrassment.

They also just received the news. They only know that Yang Biao gave a lecture in the rear general camp, but they don't know what he will talk about.

But they all knew that what Yang Biao did would soon affect both of them.

Yang Biao was able to speak to Yang Ding's hundreds of subordinates, but they couldn't educate Li Shi and Hu Chuquan, the gap was too great.

Liu Xie didn't ask any more questions. After watching for a while, he turned around and asked Zhao Wen and Zhang Xi. "What do Situ and Sikong think of Da Honglu's move?"

Zhao Wen said: "Da Honglu adheres to His Majesty's will and educates with his heart. He is worthy of being a minister."

Zhang Xi nodded in agreement.

Liu Xie smiled. "So, Situ and Sikong think enlightenment is feasible?"

"It's feasible." Zhao Wen said, looking at Zhang Xi intentionally or unintentionally.

Zhang Xi's mouth was bitter.It seems that he cannot shake off the important task of enlightenment.In front of the emperor, there are ready-made examples by his side, all he can do is nod in agreement.

"Work hard." Liu Xie smiled encouragingly, turned and left.

After getting off the city wall and returning to the temporary palace, Liu Xie couldn't help laughing out loud.

Fu Shou rushed over and looked at Liu Xie puzzled.

Cai Yan stepped forward, suppressed a smile, and briefly explained what happened.

Fu Shou also laughed. "Your Majesty's painstaking efforts have finally paid off. Congratulations."

"Yes, although there is still a long way to go before success, I have finally taken the first step." Liu Xie was in a good mood, pacing back and forth in the courtyard. "With the help of Mr. Yang, there are not many people who dare to perfunctory."

"Yang Gongde is highly respected, and he is well-received among scholars. There should not be many people who would dare to obey His Majesty's edict if he responded to it."

Cai Yan turned her head away and coughed lightly.

As soon as Fu Shou's words came out, he knew he had made a slip of the tongue. He secretly glanced at Liu Xie, but found that Liu Xie didn't pay attention at all, so he was relieved.

She quietly tugged on Cai Yan's sleeve to show her gratitude.

Prefect's House.

While Xun Yu was copying the official documents, he was listening to Xun Yun tell the news he had just inquired about.

Yang Biao gave a lecture in the rear general camp, which attracted countless people to wait and see.Xun Yun was a young man, so he also went to join in the fun, just in time to see the emperor talking with Zhao Wen and Zhang Xi, and hurried back to report to Xun Yu.

Xun Yu sighed helplessly after hearing this.

"Father, isn't the emperor emphasizing education, isn't that... a good thing?" Xun Yun put away his smile and asked cautiously.

Xun Yu put down the pen in his hand and rubbed his hands that were about to freeze.

Xun Yun hurriedly lifted the kettle from the stove beside him, boiled half a cup of hot water, and handed it to Xun Yu.

"It's really cold in the east of the river, much colder than Yingchuan. I heard people say that the big river is frozen. I didn't believe it at first, but now I believe it. Father, you said that the big river stops flowing in winter, is it because the water is frozen? It’s so cold in the east of the river, isn’t it colder in Shuofang and Jiuyuan? Aren’t the Huns afraid of the cold?”

Xun Yu took a sip of hot water and looked at Xun Yun. "Who did you meet today?"

Xun Yun turned his head and saw Xun Yu's expression was displeased, knowing that he had talked too much, so he closed his mouth embarrassingly.

"Why don't you answer?" Xun Yu urged.

Xun Yun licked his lips. "Yang Xiu."

"It's cold in Hedong, don't lick your lips, it will dry out." Xun Yu reminded.

"Oh."

"What else did Yang Xiu say?"

"He didn't say anything else, just chatted a few words."

"Yang Xiu arbitrarily distributed the salaries of twenty teachers this time. Although he has received an additional reply from the emperor, the trouble has not been resolved." Xun Yu picked up his pen again and said unhurriedly: "You know the twenty teachers How much money and food do you need for two months' salary?"

Xun Yun did some calculations. "The money and food are fourteen hundred shi, and the money is one hundred and forty thousand."

"Do you know how much money and food can be collected from Hedong County?"

Xun Yun shook his head.

Xun Yu pointed with his pen, motioning Xun Yun to look for himself.

Xun Yun got up, found a list in the official document on the case, opened it and looked at it, and was surprised.

"A total of less than [-] stone grains, so little?"

"One hundred thousand stone grains is barely enough to feed these [-] to [-] people for three months, and there is no room for salary. The three princes cannot be paid, but the teachers in the army are paid, and it takes two months at a time. Of course, it can reflect The Son of Heaven emphasizes education. But what if everyone else wants to be a teacher?"

Xun Yu sighed. "Their father and son uphold the holy will, and everyone praises it. I, the governor of Hedong, can only go to scrape the land. Changqian, tomorrow morning, you can go to the Shang Shuling. It is imperative to raise food from the Hedong clan, and we can't wait."
