Mohist Tang

The Imperial Court Great Assembly every month is an extremely solemn event in the Tai Chi Hall. As long as the entire Chang’an City has numerous officials above the Fifth Rank, they will be there. The Imperial court often makes major decisions. The election will be announced on the day of the Imperial Court Great Assembly every month.

“Scholars School of Thought, Li Duo, played to promote elementary schools and popularize compulsory education, so that everyone in the world can learn His Highness theory.” An official of the Chinese Ministry of Education said loudly with a memorial.

numerous officials couldn’t help but smile. This is not the first time Li Duo has written to the book. Every time, it doesn’t stop. It must be the same this time.

“Primary school?” Li Shimin frowned, he naturally values elementary school and compulsory education very much. However, in this era, Great Tang adopts elite education. Educational talents and resources are mostly concentrated in the hands of Aristocratic Family. If he rashly promotes elementary school, he will definitely make the Aristocratic Family jealous. This is the reason why Li Duo has repeatedly written letters but Li Shimin has not agreed.

“All Officials, let’s discuss it!” Li Shimin waved his hand and threw the problem to numerous officials.

“Promoting elementary schools, this small official thinks it’s impossible.” Du Chuke hurriedly got up and said. He is a member of the Aristocratic Family. Naturally, he is not willing to let Aristocratic Family’s educational advantages be lost. Imperial court takes the lead in opposing promotion. He was the most active in elementary school.

“As far as the minister knows, Master Li’s primary school students have a mixed source. Even the sons of traffickers and pawns can enter school as long as they can afford to pay for training. The masters used are children who can’t even pass the exam. aptitude How can the poor students and the masters who fall behind the Sun Shan teach the pillars of the country? This small official believes that elementary schools are just a waste of human and financial resources.”

In the case of elementary schools, in addition to the mandatory enrollment of all children in Mohist Village, most of the children of wealthy families in Ch_ng’n in Luoyang choose private schools. They may be nominated by the Gold List in the future.

Master Li aims to promote elementary schools. It can be said that there are not enough students, not limited to aptitude recruitment, not enough masters, let alone children, as long as you have been in a private school for a few years, it is enough to be able to instruct a six-year-old child. This will attract a lot of attention. For the poor, this allowed elementary school to develop.

The book instructed Ma Zhou to stand out and retort: “No, Confucius said: education for everyone, irrespective of background, as long as it is dedicated to Scholar, the master will teach it with all his heart. In the history books, talent is stupid. Those who are late bloomers do not count, Saint Confucius 70 second disciple Zhongzhuan Sunshi is extreme, has been dull, Gaochai is stupid, Zhongyou is rude, Yan Hui is often poor and has nothing to do, and eventually become a generation of sages. The minister thinks that Master Lis primary school He is the practitioner of Saint Confucius ideals.”

He is a poor student and a strong supporter of the elementary school. In his opinion, Master Lis elementary school can be described as the gospel of the poor student. Children of ordinary families can afford private schools, while elementary schools let the originally expensive Shu Xiu spread to many students, directly letting Shu Xiu fall, even the ordinary person family can bear it. This is for the poor students. , It is a rare opportunity.

Du Chuke retorted: “Unfortunately, Li Duo’s elementary school did not use Saint Confucius’s Four Books of Confucianism The Five Classics of Confucianism as books, but instead compiled the so-called “National Studies” and “Mathematics” to make money. , Even divided into six years to teach, such a bad behavior, how can you call it a practitioner of Saint Confucius’s ideals.”

Li Shimin can’t help but complexion sank, he once saw the textbook “Chinese Studies”, Although it contains a lot of Four Books of Confucianism The Five Classics of Confucianism, it also contains other Hundred Schools of Thought and common sense of life. More importantly, it promotes loyalty and patriotism. It can be said that it is more in line with his mind, but it is not bad. act.

Ma Zhou counterattacked: “The wide-ranging and profound knowledge of Saint Confucius, how can it be understood by young children? Master Li did this for step by step, and elementary school students not only know Wentong is more polite, hygienic, and common sense of safety. These are the knowledge required by children in school. As soon as this winter comes, several private school children have been playing on the ice, causing the ice to break and drown. The students are familiar with safety knowledge, and no one is involved in danger. I think this is what is required for children in school. As for His Highness, its not too late to learn when they are older.”

Officials nodded and said one after another, young children confused and ignorant, these common sense of life are very necessary, but also can not be learned in His Highness doctrine, this is a major drawback of private schools.

Li Shimin is also the complexion sank said: “Send the order to all private schools in the country. Students must be warned not to take risks on the ice in winter to prevent tragedies.”

“Your Majesty is wise!” Ma Zhou seriously said, Li Shimin’s move was for the world’s students, but it also indirectly helped him and affirmed the role of the elementary school to teach safety knowledge.

Du Chuke explained: “Most of the ice cracks occur in early winter and early spring. It’s just the inability of family members to take care of that’s all. The real pillar of the country is the three-year-old memorizing ancient poems and the five-year-old literate thousands of characters. This kind of genius children who read Four Books of Confucianism The Five Classics of Confucianism at the age of old seem to have a lot of momentum in elementary school, but a master has fully instructed fifty-sixty young children, and how many children will be able to get the teachings of Teacher, This is no less than a farmers extensive planting and a poor harvest. I am afraid that it will be all in vain in the end!”

Other numerous officials have been nodded. The biggest flaw in elementary education is that it recruits too many students. In this way, Teacher impossible will Focusing on a student, in this way, the teaching effect is far inferior to the elite education of a private school.

“Reporting to the minister has this performance, maybe it can give the elementary school the best of both worlds.” Suddenly Kong Yingda stepped out. Immediately let the entire Imperial Court quiet.

The gazes of the numerous officials were all focused on Kong Yingda. Although Kong Yingda is not high in official status, her status is indeed impossible to ignore. After all, the Confucian family is the face of Confucianism.

Li Shimin had a meal in his heart, nodded and said: “Kong Minister, please speak!”

“reporting to Your Majesty, like todays enlightenment enrollment of school children, there must be a lot of confusion, but it is In the private school, how can the master solve the doubts personally and at any time? Today this small official dedicated a book to Your Majesty. With this book, children in the world can be accompanied by a good teacher and solve their doubts. the results for half the effort.” Kong Yingda proudly said that the Confucianism who owns the Dictionary was naturally overlooked. Kong Yingda deliberately chose the Imperial Court Great Assembly, where numerous officials gathered, to confess good to Li Shimin and aspire to revitalize the Confucianism.

Li Shimin was surprised and surprised: “Oh! There is such a strange book in the world, I want to see it soon.”

Other numerous officials also whispered to each other. I looked at Kong Yingda believingly, but due to Kong Yingda’s identity, everyone not at all showed it.

“Your Majesty, please look!”

Kong Yingda bowed and offered the “Dictionary” with the pride on her face exposed, which made the numerous officials a little more curious.

“”Dictionary”!” Li Shimin looked at the book gently, and read it out involuntarily.

Kong Yingda nodded and said: “Yes, this book contains the world’s words, paraphrases, and coining words. If there are young children who do not understand the words or do not understand the meaning, you can quickly look up them in the dictionary. To solve the confusion in the heart, it can be said that it is like a good teacher accompanied.”

“It is so convenient?” Li Shimin was surprised, could not help but start searching, and quickly found the word he was thinking. Although the interpretation is simple, it is enough for the Mongolian children.

Kong Yingda also distributed several dictionaries to the group Small Officials. The group officials searched according to the method mentioned by Kong Yingda, and it worked. Everyone couldn’t help but click one’s tongue in wonder.

“This book is indeed like a mentor. There are a few people in Tong Family who can afford private school teachers. Most of them are taught by a master. This book is like a mentor. Being accompanied is of great benefit to your studies.” A civil official said full of praise.

Other numerous officials have been nodded. On the one hand, it is the identity of Kong Yingda, and on the other hand, the dictionary is indeed extremely useful and very useful for enlightened children.
