Guide to Traveling through the Northern Song Dynasty.

Chapter 88 0083 [King Fried]

early morning.

Father and son, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law took their children and waited in the courtyard early because the school envoy was coming.

Then, I was so hungry that I didn't see anyone.

"Let's eat first," Zhu Ming couldn't help complaining, "This old man's love-based theory, he can do whatever he likes, and you can't expect too much from his punctuality."

Zhu Guoxiang asked: "The theory of love is self-willed?"

Ju Ming shook his head and said: "Su Shi believes that human nature comes from natural attributes. Emotion is the movement of nature, and it is on the same level as sex and fate. This kind of concept led Su Shi to naturally take emotion as the foundation when doing things, and follow the mainstream. Contrasting political forms. You can simply understand it as ... liberalism, although it is very one-sided to describe it.”

"Liberalism in the Song Dynasty? Very interesting." Zhu Guoxiang laughed.

Zhu Ming also said: "In comparison, Su Shi's father is really rebellious. Su Xun advocates contingency and strategy, saying that the complete form of the way of a sage is that there are scriptures, power to change, and strategy. He also uses contingency to explain the Six Classics. , put a layer of conspiracy theory on the Confucian classics. Later Zhu Xi was furious when he read "Six Classics", saying that in the eyes of Su Xun, the saints use magic to deceive the world."

Zhu Guoxiang listened with gusto. Before time travelling, he thought that Confucianism was all about Confucianism. He didn't expect there to be so many strange theories.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law brought meals, rice, vegetables and eggs, which were much richer than before.

After noon, when Lu Tixue finally came, he laughed all the way and said, "I'm quite lethargic, I overslept today."

Zhu Ming really wanted to say: You are always afraid that you did not oversleep, but slept until noon.

Zhu Guoxiang said: "It's okay, it's the same sooner or later."

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law hurriedly bowed down with Bai Qi. This was the biggest official they had ever seen, and he was also a noble official.

Grandma Yan said very abruptly: "Brother Qi, quickly memorize the Three Character Classic!"

Bai Qi was a little apprehensive seeing so many people, but he still recited it honestly: "At the beginning of human beings, nature is kind..."

Grandma Yan's thoughts are similar to those of the scholars, wanting to show off in front of the students.

After reciting more than 400 words in a row, Bai Qi finally got stuck and forgot what was next.

Seeing that he is well-behaved, Lu Tixue looked amiable, and stretched out his hand to stroke Bai Qi's head: "Good boy, you recited very well, you must work harder in the future."

"Well," Bai Qi nodded and agreed, "I work very hard, and I learn words by memorization every day."

Lu Tixue ordered: "Let's go."

Officials and scholars immediately surrounded him up the mountain, wanting to have a good time with Ti Xueshi.

Watching everyone leave, Grandma Yan said happily: "Brother Qi has been praised by Tixue!"

"That's right, brother Qi will definitely be promising in the future." Shen Yourong was also very happy.

Grandma Yan thought about it and said: "If Mr. Zhu is appreciated, can he be given an official post after studying?"

"I don't understand this either." Shen Yourong said.

But they said that the father and son took Lu Ti to study and came to a corn field.

Zhu Guoxiang introduced: "This is corn, intercropping beans, and interplanting sweet potatoes. The ground is the vine leaves of sweet potatoes. The vine leaves can be fed to livestock, and the young leaves can also be used as vegetables."

"Grow three things in one field?" Lu Tixue asked.

Zhu Guoxiang said: "When learning, do you still remember the thirteen methods of interplanting?"

"Remember, you said it yesterday." Lu Tixue nodded.

Zhu Guoxiang said: "These three crops, from tall to short, are high and low interplanting. The leaves are round and pointed, and they are also interplanted with round tips. Their sowing, growth and harvesting periods are staggered, and they will not compete for fertilizer. It can provide fertility. After the corn is harvested, some garlic will be replanted, so as not to leave the land idle, but also use garlic to repel insects."

Lu Tixue asked: "With this method of intercropping, is it equivalent to planting only half an acre of corn, but can also produce one stone per mu?"

"Maybe less than a stone." Zhu Guoxiang said.

He inferred based on the data in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China. In the early years of the founding of New China, there were no improved seeds and no chemical fertilizers. The average yield of corn per mu was a little more than 62 kilograms, which was almost a stone of the Song Dynasty.

As for decades later, there will be more than 800 kilograms of corn per mu.

The seeds brought by the time travel degenerate again, and it is estimated that they will degenerate to the level at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

In the good fields in the north of the Song Dynasty, the yield per mu was one or two stones, and some of them could reach two and a half stones.But if it is replaced by barren mountainous land, the yield of corn and sorghum will be less than one stone per mu, and the forced cultivation of wheat will even only produce thirty or forty catties.

What's more, the corn field in front of me is also interplanted with other crops, and the combined yield is very scary.

Lu Tixue said: "After the corn and sweet potatoes are harvested, you send some seeds to Xingyuan Mansion, and the Tixue Division will move to Xingyuan Mansion next year."

The area under the jurisdiction of Lizhou Road is probably the area in northern Sichuan and the area south of the Qinling Mountains in Shaanxi, with a little bit of Gansu border.

Its political center has moved to Hanzhong at this time, but its military center is still in Guangyuan, Sichuan.The education department (Department of Academic Affairs) will also be moved to Hanzhong next year.Anyway, it's very chaotic, several teams are not under each other's control, and they don't communicate much at ordinary times.

Lu Tixue asked the magistrate again: "How much work do you have left?"

"It's less than two hundred acres," complained Xiang Zhixian, "the money for the tea soup has never been made up."

Xiang Zhixian's job field is full of two hectares, which does not belong to him, but belongs to the position of magistrate.But the job field has been occupied long ago, and it is not even clear who occupied it.

This situation is extremely common, and the court's solution is: if there is no job left, 11 tea soup money will be reissued every month.Those who have jobs but earn less than 10 guan will make up 10 guan tea money. (The above regulations are only applicable to the selection of candidates, and the officials of the Beijing Dynasty make up more. And it is difficult to operate in practice, and the money for tea soup is often not enough.)
Lu Tixue didn't care about Xiangzhi County's money for tea soup, but said: "As a parent of this county, you should lead by example. Next year, take out the money and ask Mr. Zhu to buy some seeds, plant corn and sweet potatoes according to his method, and plant them in your garden. In the field of employment. Maybe there are not enough seeds, so let’s plant two or three acres first.”

"Yes!" Xiang Zhixian didn't care about that.

Lu Tixue said again: "My job field is to plant five acres first."

"Five mu is feasible." Zhu Guoxiang immediately agreed, and he would leave seeds to promote in Daming Village and Shangbai Village.

Lu Tixue also elaborated on his own political philosophy: "Government of the people should not be forced, otherwise the people will have doubts. To promote crops, they should be planted first in the fields of officials. If there is a good harvest, the gentry will definitely flock to it. If the gentry has a good harvest, the common people will flock to it." Let’s follow suit. If there is no good harvest, the loss will be nothing more than a few acres of land, which will not harm the gentry and the common people.”

Xiang magistrate exclaimed: "I will improve my knowledge!"

Hearing these remarks, Zhu Ming's evaluation of Lu Tixue was much higher.Except for being out of tune occasionally, this person is calm and methodical in his administration, at least he doesn't mess around when his head is hot.

The corn hadn't eared yet, so there was nothing to see. After asking a few more questions, Lu Tixue went to visit the tea mountain.

Still in Bai Sanlang's Biyun Pavilion, brewing tea with the water of the Lingquan—well, this old man is traveling in the mountains again.

Lu Tixue said to Zhu Guoxiang: "Write the method of interplanting corn and sweet potatoes, as well as how to sow seeds, fertilize, etc., and give them to me in an article. I will give money for the seeds, and I will also give the article a polish."

"In one day, it should be finished." Zhu Guoxiang said.

Lu Tixue said to Zhu Ming again: "You can also give me a few articles, whether it is poetry, songs or prose, or classics and ancient prose. If you directly recommend you as a student of the imperial court, I am afraid it will be difficult to hear. If there are some good articles, it will be easy to do."

Ju Ming said: "There are some old works in my late life, I can write them today."

Lu Tixue greeted: "Since that's the case, let's write here, bring the pen, ink, paper and inkstone!"

The soap official hurriedly held up the Four Treasures of the Study, and even called for water to study ink for Zhu Ming.

Lu Tixue didn't even look at it, but just made tea in the pavilion.Moreover, his tea-ordering skills are extremely exquisite, able to crush Li Hanzhang and Bai Chongwen.

Zhu Ming picked up a pen and wrote down the poem he copied yesterday, thought about it, and copied another poem by Zhu Xi by the way.

Yu Dayuan walked over curiously, stood behind Zhu Ming and peeked, and saw that he wrote——

"Viewing books

As soon as the half-acre square pond opens, the sky and clouds linger together.

Ask the canal how clear it is, because there is a source of flowing water. "

Yu Dayuan didn't make a sound, but used his lips to Huang Sheng: "Good poem!"

So Huang Sheng also stood up, and the other two scholars surrounded Zhu Ming.

Only 2 minutes later, Huang Sheng couldn't hold back anymore and shouted out on the spot: "Good poetry, good literary talent, good imagery!"

A series of compliments made Lu Ti's heart itch, and he was a little slow in ordering tea. He really wanted to see what good poems Ju Ming had.

Seeing that he was looking towards the county magistrate, Lu Heng didn't leave his seat because of his status, so he offered to help recite: "Inscribed on Dongting Lake": The west wind blows the old Dongting waves, and Xiang Jun has white hair all night. A clear dream crushes the galaxy."

Professor Qian savored it carefully, and finally couldn't bear it any longer. He also walked up behind Zhu Ming and asked, "Have you ever been to Dongting Lake?"

Zhu Ming replied while writing a poem: "I went north last year and passed by halfway."

Zhu Guoxiang kicked his son quietly, Zhu Ming raised his head subconsciously, but saw his father also whispering: "Don't make it too big."

Zhu Ming's idea is that if you don't do it, you don't do it, and if you do it, you have to make it big!

Only to hear Lu Heng start to read again: ""Sapphire Case·Yuan Xi": Dongfeng puts flowers and trees at night, and blows them down, and the stars are like rain... Suddenly looking back, the man is there, in a dimly lit place."

Lu Tixue, who was ordering tea, suddenly shook his hand.

He stopped making tea, got up and came, and the scholars quickly moved away.

"On Poetry": Li Du's poems have been handed down thousands of times, and they are no longer new.Talented people come out from generation to generation, each leading the way for hundreds of years.

"Linjiang Immortals Reading History": The rolling Yangtze River flows eastward, and the waves wash away the heroes... A pot of turbid wine is happy to meet each other.

"Village Residence": The grass grows and the warbler flies to the February sky, and the willows are drunk with spring smoke when they brush the embankment.The children came back early from school, busy taking advantage of the east wind to release paper kites.

"Bamboo and Stone": insist on not letting go of the green hills, but the roots are originally in the broken rocks.Thousands of blows are still strong, let the wind from east to west, north and south.

"Persuading Wine": Flowers will bloom again, and people will never be young again.When you meet and mix drunk, why must you be fresh?

Zhu Ming stopped writing and counted. There are a total of eight poems, which are almost enough, and we must save some for future use.

"Please learn from Yazheng!" Zhu Ming held the paper and handed it over.

Lu Tixue took it carefully, as if he was afraid of crushing the paper, and pondered over the eight poems for a long time before he sighed: "I have such rhetoric at a young age, and I have another suzi in the Song Dynasty!"

He just wanted Zhu Ming to write a few articles as attachments for recommending scholars of the Eight Elements, so that it would be easier to enter the Taixue.

The results of it?
Let you go out and press against A, and you will directly come to a king bomb!
Lu Tixue could imagine how much sensation these eight poems would cause when they were spread to Kaifeng.

Zhu Ming's thoughts at the moment are very simple, he must hurry up and make up the "Book of Rhymes" and Ci Ling, otherwise he will reveal his truth sooner or later.
