Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 266

Anyone who talks about it should exchange it, not talk about it.For those who speak in this world, Dover can redeem it, but say it the other way around.Fufu can exchange it but say it instead, it is to save drowning with a stone, and to save a disease with a violet.

Those who make the world more chaotic, and those who are unworthy of the Lord and confused, will be born from now on.

Therefore, the task of being a teacher lies in winning principles and practicing righteousness.Li Shengyi stands on the throne, and princes and adults dare not be arrogant. As far as the Son of Heaven is concerned, he is not ashamed of it.

Whenever there is a combination, it is not necessary.The explanation of the legacy is that it is not necessary, but it is also difficult to respect it? Therefore, the teacher must win the principle and act righteously, and then respect it.

It is not clear what is going on, these students are only fifteen or sixteen years old, they are not very scheming, and when they speak, they are not as tactful as those ministers. Naturally, they say what they think to the prince.

They liked the small waterwheels that Li Chengqian taught them to make, but they didn't know how to do handwork all day long and didn't learn the way of saints.

Early in the morning, Li Chengqian took them to the edge of the model field, which was about [-] meters in size, waved and sat on the ground with these students.

Some of the students surrounding him were from noble families, such as Liu Qixian, Wang Fangqing, Pei Xingjian, Wang Xuan, Lu Yuanfang, Zhang Xi, Li Jingxuan, Changsun Jun, Changsun Yan, and Changsun Wen.

There are also local officials and common people's families, Li Jingyuan, Yang Wu, Li Jingkan, Wang Dezhen, Xin Maojiang, Zhao Renben, Yuan Shuji, Hou Sizhi, Li Yifu, Ren Zhigu, Wang Xuan, Wang Hongyi, Zhang Jianzhi.

"I know, you all think that practicing the way of Confucius and Mencius is the way to enrich the country and strengthen the people, and the way to stabilize the society. This is true, but it is not entirely true."

Li Chengqian's words made these children's faces full of puzzlement. This Confucian way has been regarded as the most important code of the country by the kings of all dynasties since the Han Dynasty.

When governing the country, all respected its way, and all the scholars of the past dynasties learned its essence, and became officials to assist the king. Why is it rejected by the prince now?

"Your Highness, I don't understand, can you please enlighten me a little bit?" The child king Pei Xingjian expressed the doubts in his heart for everyone.

Seeing Pei Xingjian bowing to himself like a little adult, Li Chengqian smiled and waved to him, indicating that he could sit down.Then he said: "Shou promise, you are still a baby, not a minister, why are you so old-fashioned?"

Li Chengqian's words made all the students present laugh, and Pei Xingjian, who was in charge, also scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Nongmulberry is the foundation of a country. You don't need to talk about this truth alone. Your ears can hear cocoons. But who can tell you how to persuade farmers and mulberry? What everyone tells you is also written on paper.

Cangwen Academy requires every student to choose an engineering subject. The purpose is to let you master a skill and let you know that no matter which line of work you are in, it is not easy. The purpose of this small waterwheel we tried is also like this. "

"There is a saying that a gentleman uses his mouth but not his hands. It is better to be a gentleman than to be a gentleman in this palace. It is better to be able to speak than to be able to do it. Is it better to teach the people how to promote agriculture and mulberry and water conservancy? It is better to write ten splendid articles, and the common people will be confused and confused.

In the spring of next year, you will all have a project to complete, which is to go to several nearby counties to build some water trucks for farmers to make irrigation more convenient for them. ..."

Li Chengqian's words opened a new window for these young people whose values ​​have not yet formed.As young people, I have always been resistant to the old-fashioned way of education.

They are also lively and active, so they naturally like to look at the scenery everywhere, so they are interested in the homework that Li Chengqian gave them, and they all turn their eyes to those small waterwheels intentionally or unintentionally.

"Guanzhong has been suffering from drought for a long time since ancient times. If we allow every county to repair enough wells, ditches, and waterwheels, then the people here will get a lot of improvements in living off the sky, everywhere. In the fertile field, there will be no large-scale fleeing from famine.

Little things make more things, and every student of Cangwen Academy must lead someone to complete a course that will benefit the village before graduation.

At the same time, you must also understand that coming here to study is not as simple as choosing a shortcut in your official career, but more importantly, you need the knowledge you have learned to feed and clothe more people. "

After Li Chengqian finished speaking, the student named Zhang Jianzhi stood up, bowed to Li Chengqian, and said in his mouth: "I will abide by the uniform order and dare not violate it. I will give up everything I have learned in this life, and the people of Zebei will live.", Then the other students got up and saluted like Zhang Jianzhi.

"Okay, I just remember what you said. You have to be down-to-earth in doing things. Don't rush. Remember that things are too late. Things should be done slowly. You have to eat every bite, and you have to do things little by little."

After speaking, he waved to the engineering lecturers standing in the distance, indicating that they can come over and give these students a good lecture. .
The craftsman Li Chengqian found who is good at making irrigation tools was taught by Jiang Xingben. This guy has good skills, but he has a bad temper. He told Jiang Xingben that anyone who carved out the same mold would believe it.

Not long ago, this guy improved the existing drum car and made a high-speed drum car, which was much more efficient than the drum car that Li Chengqian and the others had made these days.

This kind of high-drum car is powered by manpower or animal power. It looks like a keel car, and its water transportation parts are like a well car. There are wooden frames above and below it.

Each is equipped with a wooden wheel with a diameter of about four feet. The sides of the rim are high and the middle is low. Grooves are made in the middle to make it more uneven to increase the friction between the rim and the bamboo tube.

The lower wheel is half submerged in water, and the two wheels are connected by a bamboo cable. The bamboo cable is about one foot long, and the distance between the bamboo tubes is about five inches. live to bear the weight of the bamboo tube filled with water.

The bamboo cable tied with the bamboo tube is the transmission part. When the upper wheel rotates, the bamboo cable and the lower wheel rotate accordingly, and the bamboo tube also goes up and down with the bamboo cable.

When the bamboo tube goes down into the water, the pocket is filled with water, and then goes up with the bamboo cable, and when it reaches the height of the upper wheel, the bamboo tube invades the water into the tank, and the cycle is endless.Drive the strings of small bamboo tubes to hold water, go up along the water tank, and get water from low water source areas on high banks.

With the current level of technology, it is not easy to make such an irrigation tool. Of course, such a talent cannot be wasted in the yamen for intrigue, so even if Jiang Xingben is dissatisfied, Li Chengqian has to help others. .

"Your Highness, let the students learn from Mr. Liu here. Li Shina has brewed a pot of good tea. Please His Highness go over and evaluate it." Xu Jingzong walked to Li Chengqian and said softly.
