Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms

Chapter 354 Huaxia Numbers
Li Jing looked at his son calmly, waiting for him to tell the truth.

Li Congjia suddenly pursed his mouth, and said aggrievedly: "My son, I'm a little afraid of the prince now!"

Li Hongji was very suspicious, and Li Jing was extremely partial to Li Congjia.

It inevitably aroused Li Hongji's hostility and hatred.

In order to show that he had no intention of competing with Li Hongji for the throne, Li Congjia, a cowardly character, backed down again and again. He was obsessed with classics and did not care about political affairs.

But that inexplicable beating gave Li Congjia a psychological shadow.

Now when he sees Li Hongji, he feels frightened, as if the other party is going to beat him, and when he meets him on the road, he immediately turns around and runs away.

Li Congjia had long wanted to avoid him, but he didn't know where to go.

The birth of Hengqu's four sentences made Li Congjia feel inexplicably touched in his heart.

He is a rare literary leader in the world, and he can best understand the power of words.

It just so happened that recently they had a delegation of envoys going north to attend Luo Youdu's enthronement ceremony.

Li Congjia immediately thought of going north.

Li Jing was very distressed, and said angrily: "That rebellious son is really an asshole! If he hadn't moved his mind, why would Jiangnan be short of the national treasury..."

After Luo Youdu set the time for the enthronement ceremony, he wrote the book in the Southern Tang Dynasty immediately.

The first sentence is "I heard that the navy in the south of the Yangtze River has the idea of ​​looking north to Hailing, and I will sweep the couch to welcome you."

A pass of coercion and temptation, and even said that if Jiangnan has no heart to surrender, he can restore the monarchy on his own.

Li Jing, who was already timid, was so scared that he couldn't sleep well for several nights.In this anger, he even vented his anger on Song Qiqiu who was demoted to Mount Jiuhua and found an excuse to chop him off.

If it weren't for Song Qiqiu's elimination of dissidents, Luo Youdu's father was demoted to Sizhou.

Luo Youdu may be Zhuge from the Southern Tang Dynasty, how can these things happen now?
While beheading Song Qiqiu to vent his anger, he wrote a letter of apology repeatedly, expressing that he had absolutely no intention of doing so.

Then he promised to send a heavy gift, calming Luo Youdu's anger.

Li Jing forgot that he was also tempted at the beginning, but blindly blamed Li Hongji who proposed, and became more and more dissatisfied with Li Hongji.

He glanced at Li Congjia, and said solemnly: "Prince, are you really not interested in the throne?"

This Li Jing has long been demoted to be the lord of Jiangnan, but in daily life, officials from all over Jiangnan still call Li Jing His Majesty, and the address has not changed.

However, in written articles, I still honestly dare not overstep, for fear of being beaten.

Li Congjia shook his head in horror and said: "My child is fascinated by mountains and rivers, and I have never thought about it."

Seeing this, Li Jing sighed: "It's good to go and see the world..."

Li Congjia was overjoyed and felt like he had escaped from the clutches of the devil.

Bianjing.

Luo Youdu looked at the civil servants and military generals who were blushing from the quarrel, and looked at them contentedly, without giving an inch.

The cause of everything lies in the year name.

Because of the beginning and the end, Luo Youdu has been using Guo Rong's Xiande year name during the few months since he took the throne.

The new year is coming.

The new year should also be used.

At the court meeting this day, Tai Shiling raised the question of the new year's name.

Regarding this year name, many civil servants have done their homework in private.

With this mention, many people immediately gave their own suggestions.

What Zhenwen, Tiande, Dade, Zhiwen, Hongwen, Zhengwen, and even Jianwen and Zhengde have come out. Anyway, it is either Wen or De.

Now the civil servants in the temple all regard Luo Youdu as the sage king and lord of the world.

Only when the handwriting of Wen and De is used as the year name, can its value be revealed.

Wen Chen, you have a word, I have a word, and the discussion is very enjoyable.

This time the generals were angered.

Why can't there be a word for martial arts when they are all Wende?
It took only one month for him to ascend the throne, and he overthrew the Northern Han Dynasty. Such an achievement deserves Wu as his year name.

Civil servants and military generals quarreled over this trivial matter.

Most of the military generals in this era are fighting, and their education level is extremely average.

But they can copy their homework. When civil servants say Jianwen, they say Jianwu.

Civil servants say Hongwen, generals say Hongwu, anyway, just change one word, tit for tat.

Luo Youdu watched the excitement for a while, and finally decided to use Chongwu as the reign name.

He didn't pay much attention, he just chose to stand on the general's side.

When the emperor has a bowl of water level.

In the battle to conquer the Northern Han Dynasty, the logistical materials were converted from the overloaded transportation of the imperial court.

The country has already been hurt, and there will be no battles to fight for some time to come.

Luo Youdu's focus is on culture and education, and has nothing to do with generals for the time being.

Follow them a little, stroke their hair, and comfort them.

Sure enough, Luo Youdu chose Chongwu as his reign title, and a group of single-celled guys were immediately complacent, winking at the civil servants opposite, as if they had won a big victory.

Luo Youdu stopped the nonsense of the generals, and said: "Okay, this is the end of the discussion about the reign name. Let's talk about the business..."

With a long sigh of compassion, he said: "I deeply feel the wars and turmoil in the past few decades, and the hardships of the people. I want to educate the world, and I have drawn up a set of children's compulsory education laws. I want to hear your opinions."

He has already received feedback from all quarters, and he no longer hides it. He expressed his idea of ​​arresting children's education, and civil and military officials discussed it together.

Children's education is the only way of education that can be implemented in this era.

Any reform beyond the constraints of the times is too ambitious.

In ancient times, labor was the most labor-intensive. Once entering adolescence, ordinary people have no extra time to study.

Working and surviving are their way of life.

Before they reach a certain standard of living, forcing them to study is as ridiculous as not eating minced meat.

Luo Youdu had ten thousand ideas in his mind, but he had to do it step by step, so as not to take too big a step and make a fuss.

Therefore, Luo Youdu will listen to the opinions and suggestions of people of this era as much as possible, integrate his advanced development ideas with this era, adapt to the system of this era, and promulgate it, instead of going his own way and thinking about what is what.

He has had more than ten copies copied and distributed to His Royal Highness Wenwu.

This is a small court meeting, and there are not so many details.

Luo Youdu said directly: "You can discuss with each other."

Civil servants and military generals also gradually got used to Luo Youdu's way of governing, and began to gather in one place, talking softly.

Civil servants naturally discussed around the system.

The military commander talked about the novelty of football as a matter of course.

Shi Shoudao: "Is this a comprehensive game of Cuju and Polo?"

Han Lingkun said: "Are they somewhat similar, but the rules are much more complicated? Let's try after we go to court?"

"It looks very interesting, and it can be promoted in the military, lest they be too lazy..."

Pan Mei immediately thought of promoting it in the army.

Several generals with thousands of troops in their hands can't wait.

After some discussions.

As Luo Youdu expected, Wang Pu, as a representative, said first: "Your Majesty has thought about everything, and I can't see any mistakes for a while. You can choose a few places to try to promote and see the effect."

No system is perfect, especially a newly created system. Only by talking about it on paper can only detect big flaws, and the details have to be seen in practice.

Luo Youdu said: "Then promote it around Gyeonggi and Luoyang first."

Wang Pu said: "I have no objection to this, but is the subject of this child too complicated?"

Luo Youdu squinted his eyes and smiled, "Why did Wang Xianggong say that?"

Wang Pu said: "Children's enlightenment should focus on thousand-character prose and the Analects of Confucius, and learn how to read, write, and handle things. However, the primary school subjects set up by His Majesty are both magic and physical education...I am afraid that children will not accept it."

Luo Youdu said: "Children, if you have enough time, you should learn more and practice more. The way of Confucius and Mencius lays emphasis on virtue, and the arts are dissolved in life and used in life. I think it is very necessary. As for sports, it also comes from the six arts of gentlemen. .Children are young, and they exercise their muscles and bones to better learn the six arts of defense and archery... After all, they are children, and they may not listen to all the truths, so it is better to be more practical!"

He made a final decision directly.

Some things are negotiable, and some things are not.

The proportion of spells in Luo Youdu's heart even surpassed that of Confucius and Mencius.

Chinese algebra has always been in a leading position in the feudal era, but it has not been taken seriously, which is a great pity.

Naturally, Luo Youdu would not let this regret continue.

Wang Pu was the most knowledgeable, he took the lead in raising doubts, not against, but as a representative, expressing his own views, seeing that Luo Youdu had made a decision, he stopped talking.

Seeing that Wang Pu is like this, other people will naturally not forcefully stand out.

The final conclusion.

In order to promote the art of arithmetic, Luo Youdu even wrote mathematics textbooks for elementary schools himself.

Addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, compiled carefully bit by bit.

It was his eldest son, Chou Chou, who was the first to receive mathematics education.

Chou Chou has already started to babble.

Luo Youdu took the number he made up, stretched out a finger and said, "One!"

Chou Chou has a way to learn: "One!"

Luo Youdu said again: "One plus one equals two!"

"One by one, hungry..."

Chou Chou was so wronged that he cried, unable to learn.

Seeing this, Luo Youdu laughed out loud, overjoyed.

Seeing this, Fu Qing'er hurriedly said: "How can you be such a father!"

She hurriedly lifted Chouchou from the crib to comfort her, and gave Luo Youdu a dissatisfied look.

Luo Youdu smiled back, happily flipping through the math book in his hand.

She looked curiously at the book in Luo Youdu's hand with the word "Mathematics" written on the cover, and asked, "What is this?"

Luo Youdu said: "This is the art of strengthening the country..."

"That's it?" Fu Qing'er was a little disbelieving, and asked, "There are crooked symbols in there! Is it the spell of a powerful country?"

Luo Youdu squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "This is called Luo Youdu Number... no, it's too ugly, let's call it Huaxia Number. The Huaxia Number created by His Majesty Emperor Yu..."

He also doesn't know if Arabic numerals were born in this era, but so what if they were born?

Can the other side come up with a set of reasonable mathematical formulas?
In the face of absolute strength, the false can also become true.
