When an ordinary man was angry, blood splattered everywhere.
When the emperor was angry, millions of corpses would fall!
Li Yuan's gaze fell on the system's mission progress. These numbers had already expressed his attitude. The path of the ancient emperor was always filled with blood.
It needed to use the rolling heads and white bones of the enemy to forge the supreme throne.
Eunuch Lin followed Li Yuan's orders and discussed with Guan Yu. After that, Li Yuan's small courtyard became a forbidden area in Longxi County.
Of course, it was because Li Yuan lived here.
The security was abnormally tight.
Even Guan Yu's soldiers didn't know what had happened. After all, protecting Li Yuan's safety was their top priority.
Eunuch Lin came back to report,"Your Majesty, we can set off tomorrow morning after we meet Kong Yuxiu."”
Li Yuan nodded slightly and waved his hand to dismiss him.
One night was enough for Eunuch Lin to prepare everything.
Li Yuan woke up early for the first time. After washing up, he ate some light breakfast. Kong Yuxiu was already waiting by the side.
Kong Yu's state of mind was like a world of difference from yesterday.
His complexion was much ruddy, and the Confucian robe on his body was no longer as rotten and dark. It was as if a wave of vitality had appeared out of thin air, making him appear energetic.
However, his eyes were slightly dark. It was obvious that he did not rest well yesterday.
Kong Yuxiu looked at Li Yuan and bowed respectfully before saying,""Greetings, Your Majesty."
Li Yuan looked at him and said," Academician Kong, from now on, you don't have to bow to anyone you meet. This is my special pardon. Remember this."“
Kong Yuxiu was a little old. When he heard Li Yuan's words, his eyes were touched."Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."
Li Yuan smiled and said,"It's fine. Sit down and talk."”
Kong Yuxiu slowly sat down and handed over the stacks of paper he had cut. Eunuch Lin also helped to pass them to Li Yuan.
Li Yuan didn't say anything and picked it up to flip through slowly.
Kong Yuxiu explained,"Your Majesty, the matter you instructed me to do yesterday was a little urgent, but I have already set the general outline.”
"You said to set up a hundred private schools."
"Yesterday, this old minister gathered all the respected people in the county. There are many experts who have dabbled in soil engineering. Therefore, I planned the land and buildings in the hundreds of territories under Longxi County.”
"The title deed that Eunuch Lin sent over yesterday contains the old residence of the traitor. I have a bold request. Why don't we divide it into the upper house? Firstly, it can make all the students remember that the country cannot be betrayed. Secondly, it can deter some villains. It can also publicize the fact that Your Majesty alone intimidated five thousand troops.”
Li Yuan nodded slightly at Kong Yuxiu's words.
The contents of the Xuan paper were very comprehensive. The deeds of the Li Clan in Longxi County were all excellent. Now that they had no owner, they were quite good for private schools.
It saved him a lot of trouble.
Apart from the land and buildings, the most difficult thing to do to open a private school or an upper house was to have a qualified teacher. However, it was the easiest for Kong Yuxiu. Many people were willing to offer their talents to Li Yuan.
Kong Yuxiu looked at Li Yuan's expression and hesitated for a moment. He looked at Li Yuan and said again,""Your Majesty, you said yesterday that you would be a farmer in the morning and ascend the emperor's hall in the evening.”
"After this old minister discussed with the others, many people felt that it was too materialistic.”
"It's not appropriate to tell the students."
Li Yuan's hand gently brushed across the paper as a cold smile appeared on his face. He said indifferently,""Utilitarians, what's wrong with utilitarians?”
"Are all the scholars in the world going to starve to death and die of poverty, leaving their families unable to even protect their lives?”
"The person who said this must have a good family background.”
"If it was in front of zhen, zhen would let him try the taste of spring plowing and autumn harvesting.”
Kong Yuxiu understood what Li Yuan meant. He nodded silently. He also wanted all the Humble Class disciples in the world to have a path of advancement.
Countless students.
No brush, no ink.
He used a stick instead of a pen, and the ground instead of ink.
His family was poor and had no money to support him. Every time he eavesdropped outside the private school, Kong Yuxiu would do his best to help these children, but how much could he help alone?
For the poor, their children were the labor force. Studying was a matter that cost money, and there was no way out. Who would let them study?
Every time he thought of all these things, his eyes would turn red and tears would flow.
Kong Yuxiu's gaze fell on Li Yuan, and he felt even more grateful towards him.
Thinking of this, he stood up and tidied up his new Confucian robe, as if he was paying his respects to his ancestor, Confucius.
His expression was solemn as he bowed and said solemnly,"Your Majesty, your words can shock the world.”
"Your grace has now fallen upon Longxi County.”
"Your will will remain in the hearts of the people.”
"However, the people are ignorant and their hearts are complicated. In the end, some people will not be able to see the small benefits in front of them and the future. This old minister begs you to leave behind the calligraphy treasure.”
"With this mantra of the cross, I will break the shackles of the people's uselessness of reading. This old subject only wishes to see the golden age of scholars, the golden age of the Great Tang, and the golden age of His Majesty's martial arts!”
Li Yuan looked at Kong Yuxiu. He put down the things in his hands, stood up, and helped Kong Yuxiu up with both hands.
Then, he turned to Eunuch Lin and said,""Bring me brush, ink, paper, and inkstone."
"I personally wrote an inscription for Longxi Shangde Academy to announce to the world!”
Kong Yuxiu stood there, trembling with excitement.
Longxi Shangde Academy.
This was the name that Li Yuan had personally given to the academy. It was the Shangde Academy. In the Tao Te Ching, Lao Tzu had said that if there was no virtue, there would be virtue. Kong Yuxiu was familiar with the meaning of the scriptures. It was not just the words of Confucius. Otherwise, he would not be respected by all scholars in the world.
Kong Yuxiu only felt that this was a name for the academy and also to inform the world of scholars the true meaning of virtue.
With that thought, Kong Yuxiu felt that if Li Yuan was not the emperor, even if he was a scholar, he would still be a world-renowned scholar. He respected Li Yuan even more.
Eunuch Lin took out the Four Treasures of the Study and finished grinding the ink.
Li Yuan picked up the brush and allowed the brush to be dipped in ink. The calligraphy of the Sage of Calligraphy, Wang Xizhi, seemed to have melted into his body. The brush moved like dragons and snakes, drawing iron and silver hooks.
Although it was the discipline of the academy, it had the killing aura of a general.
Ten large words appeared.
"In the morning, you're a farmer, and in the evening, you're the emperor!”
Kong Yuxiu looked at the emperor's aura and could not help but say,""Good calligraphy. I didn't expect Your Majesty to have such attainments in calligraphy.”
Li Yuan put down his brush and looked at Kong Yuxiu.""I know Academician Kong is a calligraphy expert, so don't flatter me.”
"With this item, I believe it can solve Academician Kong's worries, right?”
Kong Yuxiu nodded confidently and said,""Your Majesty, this old minister will use all my strength to push this matter forward. I will not disappoint Your Majesty.”
"Even if I die, I won't hesitate.”
Li Yuan smiled and looked at Kong Yuxiu's face. Looking at the traces of time, he took out a health pill and handed it to Kong Yuxiu."Zhen does not wish for you to die wisely.”
"Fellow Kong, I hope you will remember that Longxi Prefecture is just a foundation. When the entire Great Tang is involved, I can't think of anyone more suitable than you.”
"Therefore, take this pill. It can cure your body.”
When Kong Yuxiu heard Li Yuan's words, he looked at the ordinary pill, respectfully accepted it, and swallowed it."Thank you, Your Majesty."
Li Yuan understood what he was thinking and said,"I appointed you as an academician. What you need to do is to plan the overall situation, not personally do everything.”
"We will make a promise with you. After the battle with the Turks, if you can sort out the matters of the private schools in the various places, the Nine States will be determined for scholars.”
"Next spring, I will reopen the imperial examinations, and you will be the main candidate!”
Kong Yuxiu stood there, listening to Li Yuan's words. He didn't know how to answer.
If Li Yuan had not gone to Longxi County.
He felt that his life would soon come to an end. However, he had seen many dynasties change and countless wars in his life. He was not that afraid of death. Instead, he felt that it was a kind of release.
But now…
He suddenly didn't want to die, and he was afraid of death. He was worried that after he died, he wouldn't be able to complete these things. He wanted to do everything he could, including his life, to help Li Yuan push forward with the imperial examinations.
He thought that it would take at least a few years.
Li Yuan also said that the Imperial Examinations would be reopened next year. It was only a few months away now. The person who presided over the examination would leave a heavy mark in the history books.
It was the pursuit of every scholar to leave a name in history.
Kong Yuxiu said in a hoarse voice,""Longxi Shangde Academy, Upper House, Dean Kong Yuxiu, will be coming to Chang 'an next spring.”
"As per His Majesty's orders, we will reopen the imperial examinations for all the students in the world!”
