A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Bianliang City experienced a labor shortage, and the sequelae still exist to this day.

"Look at that. He is the shopkeeper and delivers the goods himself."

"And that one...that one is the old bustard Fenfen, isn't she beautiful..."

"Goodbye mother."

In front of a brothel, a woman bowed down. On the opposite side, a plump woman snorted coldly: "We all want to go home and farm, but what are you going to do when you go home? Can your parents still allow you to farm?"

The woman stood up and said: "My father asked someone to send a message, saying that the family now has enough money and food to support me. I have suffered all these years, so I will find someone to marry..."

The plump woman turned away and said, "You can go ahead, but don't regret it. I won't accept it when you come back."

"Yes, thanks to mom for taking care of me these past few years, I'm going now."

The woman carried her baggage, and a young man came next to her and said, "Sister, hurry up, we can get home tomorrow."

"Okay." The woman reached out and brushed the things off the young man's shoulders, and said with tears in her eyes: "Go home."

The plump woman sighed, then silently rubbed her eyes. When she looked up again, she saw a man approaching. She immediately laughed: "Zhang Yanei is here... please come in."

The man looked at her, raised his eyebrows and said, "Who is hosting so-and-so?"

The plump woman gritted her teeth and said: "Slave, back then I was good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but I haven't come out in recent years. That's all, from today on, I will start..."

Su Shi sighed and said: "Anbei, this madam is quite famous. How many people wanted to kiss Fangze before... Unfortunately, they couldn't. Now that you have brought out the Golden Fat Pill, there are fewer people in Bianliang, and the opportunity has come out... "

"what chance?"

Shen An felt that Su Shi's eyes were shining.

"Fenfen..."

Su Shi straightened his clothes, showed what he thought was the most carefree smile, and then waved.

When the plump woman saw it was him, her eyes shone and she shouted: "Ms. Su..."

Well!

Su Shi limped over and held hands with the woman, as if they had been separated for many years...

"Brother and sister!"

Shen An shook his head and went all the way to the palace.

Later, Su Shi came after him with a horse.

"An Bei, remember to ask where someone is going!"

"good."

Su Shi is still resting. If this guy can still remember his future at this moment, Shen An feels that it is not hopeless.

"I've seen the imperial edict."

The chamberlain who welcomed him into the palace was obviously more respectful, and his eyes were wrong.

What does this mean?

Shen An felt that this look made people a little scared.

The waiter led the way, looking back at Shen An from time to time, and the way he hesitated to speak made people very confused.

"What's going on here?"

Shen An finally couldn't help but ask, and the chamberlain slowed down, "You came up with the Golden Fertilizer Pill later, but I regretted it to death."

"Why?"

Shen An didn't understand this causal relationship and felt that everyone in the palace was really wrong.

The chamberlain said tangledly: "Back then, I entered the palace because the food at home was not enough. If there were gold and fat pills at that time, I would have married a wife and had children without any hesitation."

Is it for this?

Shen An didn't know whether to be happy or depressed. When he saw Zhao Shu, the emperor didn't look happy either.

What does it mean?

Shen An feels that there is something wrong with everyone today.

Han Qi's forehead seemed to be swollen, and he looked very embarrassed.

"Earlier, I was blocked by people when I came out of my home. Those people shouted and asked me to agree to expand the Imperial Academy. How can I be arbitrary? I was just prevaricating, and in the end I was punched by an old woman..."

The dignified Prime Minister was violently beaten by an old woman. It would be embarrassing to tell this!

Zeng Gongliang looked no better: "My house has also been besieged. Those people said that if they don't agree to the expansion of the Imperial College, they will come to besiege them every day. The inspection department can't stop them. Those old women and old men are going to them." When I walked to my feet, my eyes turned white, and even I was frightened."

Tsk tsk!

This is touching the porcelain!

Whether Zeng Gongliang agrees or not, someone will fall in front of you every day.

Ouyang Xiu smoothed the long hair that fell by his ears and said very reservedly: "I am going through the back door today. The art of war is about taking things by surprise and attacking them unprepared. You have to learn and use them... But why are those people so crazy?"

Han Qi covered the bag on his head and said angrily: "I have to ask Shen An about this."

The three prime ministers and assistants are all unlucky, and this matter is not easy to handle.

Shen An smiled and said: "That's it. The common people all want their children to enter the Imperial College, but the Imperial College is only so big, and Guo Qian and his subordinates don't dare to do it themselves..."

"So you encourage the common people to find trouble with Zaifu?"

Zhao Shu said, somewhat dumbfounded: "I know about this matter. Regarding the matter of Imperial College...how much food will be needed?"

"not much."

Shen An was happy, and he got the answer after just a little calculation: "Your Majesty, Taixue used to have an abandoned school building, but now it can be used after renovation. Secondly, it doesn't cost much to build a new school building..."

"Why doesn't it cost much?"

Han Qi said: "I remember what you said last time that it takes a hundred years to cultivate people. The school building is best made of bricks and stones, but the bricks and stones need to be glued with glutinous rice and other materials, which is quite expensive."

Bricks are relatively simple to make, but the price of the adhesive is quite high. Just one sticky rice is a headache.

A brick looks insignificant, but what about a piece of brick? What about countless? How much adhesive is needed?

"I'm looking for someone to raise donations!"

Shen An is not short of money, but he knows how to avoid things, which makes Zhao Shu very satisfied.

If Shen An's money was spent on the expansion of Taixue, then who owns Taixue?

Han Qi asked: "Who are you asking for donations? The common people?"

Zeng Gongliang coughed dryly and said, "The people just donated money to those soldiers whose only sons died in the war. I'm afraid it won't be good if they do it again."

Shen An said in surprise: "Of course not common people."

"Who else?"

"Businessman!"

Shen An took it for granted that he wanted to be beaten, but Han Qi asked in confusion: "Businessman...who?"

Zeng Gongliang felt that Shen An did not handle this matter well: "Anbei! Businessmen value profits. If they are allowed to get involved in the Imperial Academy, there will be a lot of trouble in the future."

Even Zhao Shu nodded in agreement, which shows that although the Song Dynasty valued business, it refused to let them get involved in the school.

Shen An thought so, but still said seriously: "Not a businessman from the Song Dynasty."

Well!

Han Qi wanted to wave, but was interrupted immediately, and there was a click in his arm. He moved his arms nervously, but luckily it was fine, and then he said with lingering fear: "Are you going to blackmail those foreign merchants again?"

Zeng Gongliang pointed at Fang Xing, with a troubled look on his face: "What you're doing is going too far."

Those businessmen had been blackmailed by Shen An a while ago, in order to congratulate Zhao Shu and his son on entering the palace, and all the money was given to Futian Yuan.

Not long after this, you actually want to attack them again?

"Ahem!"

Zhao Shu coughed dryly and ended the topic, followed by the discussion.

When they left after the discussion, Ouyang Xiu and Shen An walked together.

"The expansion of Imperial College, what do those people want to learn?"

Ouyang Xiu asked casually, but Han Qi and Zeng Gongliang who were walking in front slowed down.

As old ghosts for many years, what haven't they seen? Blackmail and extortion have nothing to do with them, they are only concerned about the future direction of Taixue.

Shen An said honestly: "Of course I am going for the imperial examination."

Ouyang Xiu said with a smile but not a smile: "I believe that there are many people who go for the imperial examination, but there are also many people who go for miscellaneous studies, right? By the way, you made a big move to contract Fan Lou yesterday, which shocked Bianliang. A little bit Later, when those people learned that you were looking for students who focused on miscellaneous studies, some people said that they would send their children to your door..."

Zeng Gongliang, who was in the front, turned around and said: "Tai Xue is Tai Xue, miscellaneous studies...if miscellaneous studies become the mainstream, I am afraid no one will go there anymore."

Ouyang Xiu said with a smile: "Tai Xue is the study of the country, and students cannot be forced to learn other things."

Shen An smiled and said: "Of course not. If something goes wrong, I will quit Imperial College immediately."

The four of them stood facing each other, and the atmosphere gradually solidified.

Ouyang Xiu said unnaturally: "That's not what I meant..."

"Why should my husband be humble? That's what you mean."

Shen An cupped his hands and said, "That's it, I'm leaving."

He walked away coolly, Zeng Gongliang was dumbfounded, "What does he mean?"

Ouyang Xiu smiled bitterly and said, "This child lost his temper. He will be fine in a few days."

Han Qi sighed: "I know a lot about miscellaneous knowledge. It's all practical knowledge. It has no conflict with the original knowledge. Why are you so nervous? It's caused a lot of trouble and the relationship has become tense."

Old Ouyang Xiu blushed and said: "Those people made too much noise and even blocked Zaifu's door. I just wanted to warn you. Who knew that young people can have such a bad temper?"

Han Qi said coldly: "Are you afraid? You are afraid that miscellaneous studies will become mainstream and your poetry and articles will be squeezed out."

"Nothing."

Zeng Gongliang said: "This is just a precautionary measure. Miscellaneous studies are just a side course, what are we afraid of?"

"Then what are you doing with your fist?"

Han Qi recalled the suffering when the New Deal failed and the origins of the opposition, and couldn't help but sneer.

Those who have read poetry and books are all opposed to the New Deal. They are the richest and have the greatest influence, so it is good to use miscellaneous knowledge to influence them.

The three of them returned to the Political Affairs Hall, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net Later, someone came to report: "My lord, Shen An has gone to Taixue, and there seems to be a commotion."

The three of them looked at each other, dumbfounded.

In the palace, Zhao Shu was talking to Gao Tao about today's affairs in the court.

"Shen An wants to expand the Imperial College. Those people must be worried about the proliferation of miscellaneous studies, so they will oppose it. The DPRK will be very lively in the near future."

Gao Taotao said in confusion: "Miscellaneous studies... isn't that a partial sect? How can it be allowed to appear openly in Taixue?"

Zhao Shu smiled and said: "In the eyes of the emperor, there is no such thing as partiality. What is good for the Song Dynasty and what is good for me is the right way."

Gao Tao praised: "The officials are wise."

Zhao Shu said: "I can't say that I am brilliant, but miscellaneous studies are beneficial. Think about it, whether it is the Shenwei Crossbow or the Golden Fertilizer, they are all things in miscellaneous studies. If more talents can be taught in miscellaneous studies, the Song Dynasty will be better in the future." What’s the scene?”
