The Great Han Dynasty: From Feng Lang Juxu to the Eternal Emperor

Chapter 250 The New Year is Coming

Wei Ning followed Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to Jiaofang Palace.

He could come and go freely in the harem, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was particularly favoring him.

After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sat down, a maid came over to pour tea and water. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty motioned for Wei Ning to sit next to him, and then waved the maid to leave.

"What you said to Dade today was excellent."

Weining sighed: "The idea is wonderful, but it's hard to say how far it can be implemented."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty squinted his eyes and said, "Tell me about it."

Wei Ning said: "Education is not something that happens overnight. How many pure Confucian gentlemen are there like Dade?"

"Just because he is willing to teach does not mean that everyone is willing to teach."

"There is not much profit in teaching for the imperial court. Those who have studied hard for decades in a poor family don't want to aspire to become a member of the imperial court. If they are asked to devote themselves to educating the people, they are afraid that they will not be willing."

"There will still be a shortage of teachers."

As time goes by, it didn't take long for human beings to move from a chaotic slave society with no sense of propriety, justice and shame to a highly civilized feudal society.

Whether it is etiquette, knowledge, rules, integrity, ethics, morality, etc., all ideas such as etiquette, knowledge, rules, integrity, etc., are shaped by the continuous enlightenment of various schools of thought, and the current social appearance is formed.

But because the country is poor, the people's first need is not education. They are still struggling for food and clothing.

This is the primitive instinct of human civilization.

No one would choose to go to school when they are poor, because it is meaningless. Most ordinary men would rather invest in more places to make their families live a better life and have a warm meal.

What's the use of reading?

But if human beings do not read, social evolution will stagnate, and people will not form a sense of autonomy, think, and feed back the country.

Nowadays, if you look at the entire country, you will find that about nine and a half of the ten people are illiterate, let alone asking them to learn higher theoretical knowledge.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty listened to Wei Ning's considerations and nodded in agreement.

"It's really difficult."

"But don't stop doing it just because it's difficult. Your goals are lofty, and that's good."

"Don't worry, didn't you say? It takes ten years to grow trees and a hundred years to cultivate people."

"There is still plenty of time. As long as we are pioneers and lay out the framework, future human reproduction will follow our footsteps."

Weining sighed: "But a natural disaster or a war will destroy everything we have built with great effort."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty smiled and said: "That will happen in the future. Isn't it too unrealistic to think about the future now?"

"If teachers are lacking, then we should use bribes to lure them."

Wei Ning asked: "What benefit?"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said: "Didn't you say it before? Examination."

"what?"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said: "I have been thinking about the advice you gave me before. The country recruits talented officials through examinations."

"Using this method, we can force them to study and let them know that studying has the potential to become officials. This is a benefit."

Wei Ning said: "Wouldn't that mean there is an even greater shortage of teachers?"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty smiled and said: "But the exam does not necessarily mean that everyone will be admitted. It will eliminate many, many people, and these people can turn back and become teachers."

"Where does their money come from? Where do their profits come from?"

"Let people spend money to go to school?"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said: "It will definitely be like this in the later stages of development."

"It's still an unfair battle, and the rich still control social resources."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said: "But we have no way to achieve absolute fairness. If it is absolutely fair, what is the point of the people's struggle? It will only make them further degraded."

"If you want to be a master, you have to strengthen yourself. The court can't spur them. You can't do it, and I can't do it either."

"Boy, I know you are doing good for the man and the people, but don't always think that everything is fair. There is no absolute fairness in this world."

"You have done well enough, and I have seen your grand goal."

"If you are good at learning, you will be an official. What do you call it? If you are good at officialdom, you will be a king." Wei Ning said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, please stop talking nonsense. I am not qualified to be a king, and there is no king with a different surname in the Han Dynasty, unless I die."

"But I won't achieve anything like this."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: "Who can know this?"

He stood up with his hands behind his back, walked to the outside of Jiaofang Hall with a deep look, and looked up at the turbid sky.

The cold wind was blowing the hair of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. He looked at the sky with deep eyes and said: "The New Year is almost here."

"It's spring and you're going on an expedition."

Wei Ning said: "Yeah, but I'm just going to deliver food and grass."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty smiled and said, "Do you still remember my words?"

Wei Ning said: "Of course, don't show off, don't leave your post without permission, leave the battlefield matters to Li Guang and Huo Qubing."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty hummed and said, "Let's come to the palace to spend the Chinese New Year this year."

Wei Ning thought for a while and said, "Wouldn't it be better to go to my uncle's house? My grandma is also there."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said: "I did not discuss it with you, I ordered you to come to the palace to celebrate the New Year!"

Weining: "..."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty paused and glanced at Wei Ning's face. The little guy already had dense white fuzz under his lips and was about to grow a beard.

"You are not young anymore. I will arrange a marriage for you in the beginning of the year so that you can start a family as soon as possible."

Wei Ning hurriedly shook his head and said, "I'm still young."

"It's the sixteenth year of the new year."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said: "Why are you still young?"

Time flies so fast, two years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Wei Ning took a deep breath and said, "Is it okay if I choose my own marriage?"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty shook his head and said: "Since ancient times, parents have ordered matchmakers to marry. How can you have the right to choose for yourself?"

Wei Ning said: "But my mother is dead, how can I have any responsibility as a parent?"

Your mother is dead and you have no father, right?

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said angrily: "Then just listen to your elders!"

Wei Ning said: "My uncle doesn't worry about this."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty became more and more angry and said angrily: "You are just an uncle? Am I not your relative?"

Wei Ning said, "Isn't it a bit far?"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: "You fart!"

call!

Why do you always make me angry? I am really convinced. No one dares to talk to me like this!

"It's done, let's not talk about this anymore." Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty took a deep breath and didn't bother to discuss it with him. When the time comes, he will let Wei Zifu choose a good girl to marry.

As long as they are diligent and thrifty, and the husband and wife follow suit, it will be a good marriage. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty will personally test and teach the other party, and he will never find a girl for Wei Ning who does not know etiquette.

……

Nagato Palace, Wuyuan Palace.

Chen Ajiao's spirit was completely shattered after she was deposed as the queen.

Her only fig leaf was torn away by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. She was a person with strong self-esteem. She lost her position as queen and her life was worse than death.

Liu Huan was angrily recounting his grievances to Chen Ajiao.

Chen Ajiao listened attentively, smiled slightly, and said to Liu Huan: "Come on, Weining will go out in the spring next year."

"He will definitely not come back alive! Definitely!"
