Chapter 657 It’s broken! Liu Cheng is trying to dig up our roots!

"What is this?

How can something like this be used to teach students?

It’s just nonsense!”

In a courtyard in Chang'an, someone was holding a piece of paper in his hand and scolding, appearing particularly angry.

On this paper, there are copied three-character scriptures, disciple rules, thousand-character essays, as well as some arithmetic, nature, and fables.

"To teach students, we should use a subset of classics and history. Even for enlightenment, we need the words of saints and the classics!

But what the hell is this?

Knowledge is the most important thing, and there can be no carelessness!

This Three-Character Sutra and the Disciples' Rules are not the same. Although they are different from the classics, they do not deviate from the words of the saints and do not violate the wishes of the saints.

But what are these fables, arithmetic, and nature?

These are just some miscellaneous studies, some things that are not worthy of being refined, but they are also suitable for enlightening people?

Also assign people to study?

Is it worthy of being promoted together with Confucian things?

What a nonsense!”

"That's right!" Someone next to him answered, also feeling aggrieved.

"This is nonsense!

It is good to set up schools and teach children these things. This will make Confucianism flourish, but what is the content of this teaching?

Whether it is enlightenment, serious study in the future, or anything else, you need to use my Confucian classics.

This Uncle Liu Huang is a man who leads troops to fight.

When it comes to leading troops to fight, when it comes to killing pigs and shaving their hair, he is an expert, but when it comes to knowledge and teaching, he knows nothing!

Letting him fool around like this is simply misleading people and will lead to the loss of the country!"

"Everyone, this is not the most serious thing. The most serious thing is that I heard that Uncle Liu is planning to let girls and boys attend school together.

This is the most excessive and stupid behavior!

It is enough for women to stay at home, take care of their husbands and raise children, spin and weave, help manage the farmland, and do housework.

What are you going to do with these studies?

After learning, will I be able to weave more or do more housework?

It has no effect at all, it is purely wasteful and unnecessary.

This is an insult to knowledge!"

After hearing the news from him, several people present suddenly became angry: "This is indeed stupid. If we don't do this, wouldn't it be disruptive to the society?

Moreover, what is the etiquette for men and women attending the same school?

Do we still need the defense between men and women?"

"No, we must stop it, we can't let Uncle Liu Huang act like this!

Wouldn’t this mess up everything?”

"Yes, we really need to stop it!"

Someone nearby echoed.

After doing this for a while, someone said: "Everyone, look at this book of Nature and what it says.

Call me a big man, but I only occupy a small space.

He also said that besides me, the Han Dynasty, there is a vast territory, and that I, the Han Dynasty, are not the center of the world...

Moreover, they also say that the yield of sweet potatoes and potatoes can reach more than 20 dan per mu. Do you think this is true?

Is it credible?”

"You can't believe it!

It’s all nonsense!”

As soon as the man finished speaking, someone immediately shouted angrily.

“Since ancient times, our place has been the center of the entire world and the entire universe.

Except for me, a big man, they are all foreigners living in a barbaric land.

How big can those places be?

To add up to the size of five or six big men, it is already an extremely remarkable thing!

In this book that Liu Cheng made, it is said that the big man is just a corner of the book. It is really nonsense!

How did he know that the world was like this?

Has he ever set foot in those places himself?

How do you know this world is like this if you have never set foot there?

This is just to attract people’s attention and make things up here!”

"that is!"

Someone answered immediately.

"What Liu Cheng said is simply not credible. You and I are both well-read people, and none of the saints and sages have ever said this.

What even the sages don’t know, does Liu Cheng know?

Could it be that Liu Cheng is more powerful than the sage?

Do you know more?

Let’s not talk about whether I, a big man, live in a corner, just talk about potatoes and sweet potatoes.

Can this thing achieve a yield of twenty dan or more per mu?

Is this really ridiculous?

You are all people who have read a lot of poetry and books. Your family used to have a lot of land, and you know a lot about farming and mulberry farming.

Let me tell you, which of your fields and crops can produce more than 20 dan per acre?

Being able to produce ten stones would make you laugh out of your dreams!

Then what Liu Cheng said is just fabrication.

I feel that no one has been to the places he mentioned, so I started talking nonsense here.

But even if the places he mentioned exist, we have never been there, but we are not stupid, so why can’t we see that he is just making things up here?

How ridiculous that you would say such a thing!

Moreover, I am a big man with a vast land and rich resources, and the things I have are the best things in the world.

Even my fellow man has never had such a high yield of grain, and it is even more impossible in other places.

Those alien lands are nothing!"

"Yes, this is just making it up to attract people's attention.

I think this is Liu Cheng. After becoming the King of Han, he couldn't wait to go further and prepared to use these things to make auspicious things.

In order to demonstrate the rationality of his becoming the emperor and increase his persuasiveness..."

Several people were saying these words here, looking particularly angry.

"Ahem..."

It was at this time that a cough sounded.

The people in the house suddenly became quiet and turned their attention to one person.

This man looked to be about forty years old, and he was somewhat overweight.

Before, I had been sitting here without speaking.

"I think these are secondary things. The most important thing is that Liu Cheng seems to want to dig into our roots.

He is planning to build a large number of schools so that many children from ordinary families can go to school. This is not right in itself.

What knowledge do children from ordinary families learn?

It's simply not necessary.

They only need to be able to farm, raise livestock, and work. These are the things they need to learn.

These are the things that only the children of us should learn.

Think about it, what is the biggest reason why we can have such a transcendent status and still have confidence at this time?
