Chapter 438 Curriculum
Wu Youwei hurriedly asked: "Is your highness weak in hands and feet?"
"Hmm..." All in a crying voice.
The little prince thought he had grown up, he was no longer a child, he was a big brother, he was the eldest son, and was appointed as the prince, why couldn't he even hold the chopsticks steadily?
"A man should bleed but not cry." Wantong still ate his breakfast plainly: "Crying, that's something women can do."
The little prince held back all of a sudden!
The chief eunuch was very distressed, but he didn't dare to go up to comfort him, because Wantong was sitting there, looking at him coldly, warning him that there was not much to do.
The little prince was so aggrieved that he didn't dare to cry, he was afraid of being ashamed, which was already embarrassing enough, and if he was treated as a great niece by his uncle, he would never be able to hold his head up in front of his uncle for the rest of his life.
Wu Youwei couldn't see the child's grievances, disregarded Wantong's cold warning, got up and knelt down in front of the little prince, rubbed his little arm: "It's just like this when I just practiced martial arts, and I just started to touch my hands and feet, so of course I can't bear it anymore." Don't be afraid, Your Highness. Wait a moment, ask the manager to apply hot water to you, and find someone who can massage and press it. Before going to bed at night, take a hot bath and put a little herbal medicine that relaxes muscles and activates blood circulation. Well, Your Highness is still young and just started practicing martial arts, so don't feel ashamed, and your body won't break down..."
Wu Youwei explained to the little prince in a good voice, the child, you have to tell him clearly, if you don’t understand, the child is not allowed to ask, so the child will always be kept in the dark, what to do when something happens in the future?
And education, education, both to teach him and to nurture him.
Having said that, some grand princes who are dignified and dignified do not need to be raised by others, but they also need to be educated.
"Really?" The little prince really held back his tears, but he was relieved, he thought his arms and legs were going to be disabled.
"Of course!" Wu Youwei said, "You're still young, and you still have plenty of time. Martial arts training can't be accomplished overnight. Be good, I'll feed you something!"
Wu Youwei brought the rice porridge and began to feed the little prince. The little prince ate obediently, his arms and legs were still shaking, but he didn't want to cry anymore.
Wantong watched and muttered in a low voice: "A loving mother has many failures!"
The manager heard it too much, but he pretended he didn't hear it!
The little prince doesn't look like a prodigal son, but Mr. Wan is cruel, such a cute child can work hard.
The child finally felt better, and Wu Youwei took him to the classroom.
Although it is cold and windy outside, the classroom is still very warm, because there is plenty of sunlight, there are two pots of green orchids in the room, and a clump of lucky bamboos that have fallen to the ground, served in a large and modern glass vase. There is clear water and pebbles in it.
A small white jade censer, burning with a faint fragrance of gardenia, is standard equipment for the study at first glance.
The teacher and the students sat together, Wu Youwei saw that the little prince was not feeling well, so he knew that the first day of martial arts practice had not slowed down, so he was not in a hurry to have a class with him, but discussed with him: "The minister is responsible for teaching you. , as for you, you are the crown prince, and learning is something that must be done."
"Gu knows." The little prince's serious appearance is quite cute: "Gu will be a prince from now on, and he has to become a talent."
"Well, so, I think, on this first day, let's discuss the schedule with you." Wu Youwei felt that the child was doing well, although yesterday was a little rough, today is still doing well.
"Schedule?" The little prince didn't understand.
Wu Youwei explained to him, and then the senior and junior started chattering and bargaining.
Practice martial arts every morning and learn Chinese in the morning. This is very important, and Wu Youwei is not the only teacher to teach.
The little prince needs to learn a lot, including all the Four Books and Five Classics, as well as the Law of the Ming Dynasty, the Law of the Great Law, and so on.
Afternoon is mathematics, nature, geography, history, chemistry, physics, medicine, pharmacy and practice.
Of course, it is also collectively referred to as "miscellaneous studies".
After nine days, take a day off, ten days is a ten-day period, and one day off in a ten-day period is fine.
The same is true of Wu Youwei's Tao Wen Academy and the later Xinglin Medical College.
"What is practice?" The little prince was curious about this.
"Practice means that His Highness the Crown Prince understands some things but cannot experience them personally, so practice means that His Highness the Crown Prince can experience them for himself under limited conditions." Wu Youwei said: "Your Highness, the Crown Prince, does he know the poem "Pity the Farmers"?" ?”
"I know!" The little prince recited, shaking his head, "It's the noon of the day of hoeing, and the sweat drips into the soil. Who knows that the food on the plate is hard-working. This poem was taught to him by the emperor, and also by the concubine mother." The four of them all recited it, saying that there should not be too much left over from the meal, and they should not be picky.
"His Royal Highness is really smart." Wu Youwei praised, and the little prince was very proud.
Children like to be praised by others, Wu Youwei knew that he was right when he saw the little prince like this.
"But you know why it's so hard to hoe weeds?" Wu Youwei asked him.
The little prince was stunned: "I don't know, Gu... Gu has never seen it before."
Not to mention the seedlings, even the green grass he saw was the lawn that the palace people had taken care of, and it was not considered a weed.
"So, I hope that His Highness the Crown Prince can appreciate the hard work of farmers." Wu Youwei said softly, "It's not like Zhao Kuo, just talking on paper."
"Who is Zhao Kuo?" the little prince was curious.
Wu Youwei explained it again, Zhao Kuo, and his allusion to the little prince understood: "I understand."
"Scholar Wu, er, do you want the crown prince to go to the field?" The chief eunuch couldn't help it anymore, even if such a young child was outside, the poor family would not let him go to the field?
"This is easy to do. Clear out a place in the East Palace Garden and use it exclusively for His Highness the Crown Prince to farm, tidy up the fields, sow seeds, raise seedlings, etc. Don't let others do it, and let His Highness the Crown Prince do it himself." Wu Youwei said: "Prince Your Highness is still young, you don't need to go to the fields, and you can't do much, so let's start with the small vegetable garden."
Isn't it the ancient simplified version of Happy Farm? In modern times, each school still has a corner of practice, but in fact it is just a place to grow some side dishes.
"Then what do you want to plant?" The little prince was obviously more interested in the things he did himself.
"Little cabbage, little water radish." Wu Youwei said, "You can also plant some small coriander."
These are all crops that are easy to survive and have a short cultivation period. They can be eaten when they are young, and they can be used for cooking when they grow up.
The chief eunuch thought that Wu Youwei was taking care of the young prince, so he deliberately found this simple vegetable to grow for the young prince, and he was very grateful.
Therefore, the flower bed in Ciqing Palace was changed into a vegetable garden for the little prince to practice farming.
"Okay!" The little prince has already started to fantasize about growing his own vegetables and giving them to his father and queen, um, the emperor's grandmother, the elder sister, the fifth sister, and the younger brother.
"The practice class is not only for His Royal Highness to experience the hard work of farmers, but also for thrift." Wu Youwei said: "His Royal Highness will know when the time comes."
Such as chemical experiments, such as farming.
"En!" The little prince said enthusiastically, "What is nature?"
"Naturally, it's a deep and interesting subject..." Wu Youwei explained to the little prince slowly.
The little prince had a hard day only in the morning.
After teaching the little prince how to practice martial arts, Wantong went out of the palace to run errands in the yamen of Jinyiwei, and Wu Youwei used his lunch in the palace. He had a royal banquet with His Royal Highness, because it was the first day of class, and Xianzong The emperor specially rewarded four dishes, the Queen Wang rewarded two dishes, Concubine Wan Guifei rewarded one soup, and the Empress Dowager Zhou rewarded snacks after the meal.
Wu Youwei ate the meat dishes eaten by the emperor, the vegetarian dishes eaten by the empress, the soup drank by the imperial concubine, and the snacks served by the empress dowager, but he felt very emotional: at any time, education is respected by others, even if the other party is a noble family , I still want to give gifts to the teachers who educate their children!
From now on, this will become a custom, and every meal will be given such a customary reward. The East Palace itself does not open fire, and it is delivered from the Imperial Dining Room, along with the rewards from these few people.
On the first day of class, the schedule was actually finalized. After class, Wu Youwei went to see Emperor Xianzong and presented the schedule to him for review: "I have already discussed with His Royal Highness, and here is the schedule. For the Chinese class, you can invite two gentlemen to teach, but I suggest that it is best to invite one, and the professor's book, it is best to have one, so that His Royal Highness can easily read it."
"You are the only one in the morning and afternoon." Emperor Xianzong nodded in satisfaction after reading it: "For now, they don't have that time."
Wu Youwei was taken aback: "That's His Royal Highness...how come there is no time?"
Could it be that they all opposed the establishment of the crown prince, and simply gave the crown prince cold violence?
This made Wu Youwei angry, and he was established as the prince. What do you mean by being cold and violent?
"No." Emperor Xianzong smiled and waved his hands: "It's me, I want to reopen the exchange market." Wu Youwei's eyes became straight when he heard it: "Reopen...the exchange market?"
Mutual market refers to the trade between the Central Plains dynasty and surrounding ethnic groups, and between China and foreign countries in history.
The trade between China and foreign countries is also called commerce or market.
It first originated when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Qian traveled to the Western Regions and started trade with countries in the Western Regions.
The Han Dynasty also set up customs markets at border crossings as a mutual market with ethnic minorities.
The name "mutual market" began with the trade between the Eastern Han Dynasty and Wuhuan, Xianbei, Xiongnu and other tribes.
The ups and downs of the exchange market are closely related to political and military struggles.
After the Wei and Jin Dynasties, it was also called "Jiaoshi".At that time, land trade was more prosperous, and sea trade also began to develop.In the Sui Dynasty, a city supervisor was set up on the northwest border to take charge of mutual market affairs.
In the sixth year of Tang Zhenguan, it was renamed Mutual Market Supervisor.There are mutual markets along the border, mainly horse markets.
Later, a city ship envoy was established to take charge of South China Sea trade.
After the mid-Tang Dynasty, the sea transportation in the southeast flourished, and the sea trade surpassed the land. Guangzhou, Jiaozhou, Yangzhou, and Quanzhou became important commercial ports.
The current market is strictly controlled by the government, and there are many restrictions on trade items.
During Wenzong's Great War, ordinary people "are not allowed to trade money and goods with customers from various feudal lords" except for those who are allowed to trade.
During the Five Dynasties, private trade flourished, and in the Later Zhou Dynasty Xu Min and the Uyghur privately traded.
Song, Liao, Jin, and Yuan set up mutual markets on the border.
At that time, overseas trade was more important.
Especially in the Song Dynasty, municipal shipping departments were established in Guangzhou, Lin'an, Mingzhou, Quanzhou and other places, and shipping services and shipping yards were set up in Banqiao Town, Shanghai Town, Huating County, Qinglong Town, Jiangyin, Wenzhou, etc. of Mizhou.
Since the Yuan Dynasty was created by ethnic minorities, it only set up municipal bureaus in Quanzhou, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Qingyuan, Wenzhou and other places.
In the Ming Dynasty and the Yongle period, the regulations of the Yuan Dynasty were still followed. In Quanzhou, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Qingyuan, Wenzhou and other places, only the exchange of tribute and ships was allowed.
That is to say, foreign ships sending tribute can be traded and traded, but other things are not allowed.
In the north, there is only the frontier mutual market.
Mutual market trade among border residents refers to the exchange of goods by border residents in border areas within [-] kilometers of land borders, at open points approved by the imperial court or designated bazaars, within the specified amount or quantity range.Moreover, Daming also stipulated that an inch of iron is not allowed to leave the customs.
Even spatulas, knives for cutting vegetables and meat are not allowed!
Although this rigid rule of Ming Dynasty was extremely extreme, it dragged down the Mongolian iron cavalry.
Because "inch iron" is not allowed to leave the customs, even iron pots are rare in Mongolia. If anyone has an iron pot, it is simply enviable.
Because of this, the Mongolian iron cavalry, which was invincible across the world back then, has become less and less common after so many years.
The people who did business with them in Ming Dynasty mostly sold tea, salt, sugar and cloth.
Suddenly the court wants to open a mutual market, what's going on?
"Ministers... can you allow it?" Wu Youwei was worried about those ministers. Although they were loyal to Daming, they also believed that everything was inferior, and only reading was high.
