My husband is sour every day

Chapter 1098 The way of a monarch and his ministers

Shen Xia looked at the tears in Xiaotian's eyes.

He took out the hand in his arms and said, "Why are you still crying? It's been so long since I last saw my sister and I'm so excited."

Xiaotian nodded without saying anything.

"Well, if you miss me, you can come to the palace to find me anytime."

"it is good."

Shen Xia didn't know how depressed Xiaotian had been during his time in the Taifu Mansion.

He also didn't go to the academy.

Because he knew that his identity had gone through many twists and turns in the past six months, he didn't want to hear the ridicule of his classmates.

The people around listened to the conversation between His Majesty and Yu Zhi.

I think the relationship between the two has always been good.

After all, your majesty calls himself "me" to Yuzhi.

The old lady's originally uneasy mood felt a little better after His Majesty came to the palace in person.

Then look at His Majesty's attitude towards his own grandson.

I feel even more relieved.

After all, Yu Zhi’s knowledge is good.

My daughter will definitely be at home in the future.

It's like they are still a family.

And Fu Yurou looked at her son.

Normally he was a man of few words and not one who would show his emotions, but he was different in front of An Ping.

Could it be...

The Grand Tutor quickly said, "Your Majesty, go in and sit down first."

"it is good."

Shen Xia walked slowly towards the front hall.

The Taifu was leading the group beside them, one step behind Shen Xia.

Shen Xia walked towards the study under the guidance of the tutor.

There is also a study room in the front yard, which is specially used to receive outsiders.

Only the Grand Tutor took Shen Xia to the study.

Li Yi followed behind.

But Xiaotian did not follow because he knew that his sister and grandfather had something to discuss.

As soon as Shen Xia sat down, the servants prepared tea.

Ruyi and Liyi were waiting at the door.

Shen Xia looked at the Taifu standing next to him and said, "When you go out, you don't need to be too polite. Taifu, please take a seat."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Shen Xia gently picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Well, not bad."

The Master just listened quietly.

Because he also didn't know the purpose of His Majesty's visit.

Shen Xia put down the cup and spoke slowly: "I think the Master knows the purpose of my coming here."

Taifu: Can I say I don’t know?

The tutor didn't say anything, just looked at Shen Xia quietly.

Shen Xia chuckled, worthy of being a veteran of three dynasties, he was able to keep his composure!

Shen Xia continued: "Why did you resign, Master?"

"I have no face to face the late emperor. Mixing up the royal bloodline is a grave crime. Your Majesty is lenient and has not killed all of them. How can I continue to serve as an important official?"

Shen Xia listened and realized that, indeed, according to reason, the queen and the prince should all be executed.

The position of Taifu is very awkward.

Shen Xia smiled faintly: "I thought that the Grand Tutor didn't trust me and felt that I couldn't make Dajin better and better, so I resigned."

The Grand Tutor bowed his head and said, "This old minister has absolutely no such intention." He could not admit it even if there was the slightest intention.

This was also the previous idea.

And after listening to Yu Zhi's talk about His Majesty's past, perhaps my previous thoughts were indeed pedantic and narrow-minded.

After all, the divinations made by Abbot Yuanyi back then were quite accurate.

"I really have no face to face the late emperor and all the civil and military officials."

"If this is what Grand Master is worried about, then it has nothing to do with the Fu family. The Sang family is guilty of the crime. Both the Queen and Xiaotian are innocently implicated. I am not the kind of person who kills innocent people. Grand Master should understand this."

"I understand."

"If the Grand Master really has no face to face the late emperor, then shouldn't he assist me wholeheartedly during his lifetime and make the Great Jin prosperous? Only when he meets the late emperor in the underworld a hundred years later can his merits atone for his sins."

The Master was silent.

Shen Xia continued: "Taifu, have you ever seen a country without illiterates?"

The Grand Tutor stared at Shen Xia blankly.

Shen Xia's eyes revealed a rare courage.

A country without illiteracy?

What a feat this is.

This was something he had never dared to think about before.

How is that possible? Nowadays, it is difficult to raise a scholar among the poor students even with the efforts of the entire family or village.

And a country without illiteracy?

What a great strength that requires!

Impossible, how can it be possible.

The Grand Tutor felt that His Majesty had gone insane.

Besides, we don’t need so many scholars!

There aren't that many official positions.

"Your Majesty, the Great Jin Dynasty does not need so many scholars!"

Shen Xia understood what the Master meant.

What this means is that even with so many scholars, there are not so many official positions.

"Who says that one must become an official after studying? Reading can help people understand reason and distinguish right from wrong. It can broaden their horizons. No matter what kind of work they do in the future, reading will be useful."

“Only under absolute competition can we select people with both moral integrity and ability.”

"Your Majesty is wise."

Shen Xia: "Give me ten years, and I can make all children over the age of six in Dajin go to school for free and implement nine years of compulsory education."

Six years plus nine years is exactly fifteen years old.

Those who can study can continue studying, and those who can’t can just go out and earn money.

This is Shen Xia’s plan for the future.

It is certainly impossible to achieve nationwide unified nine-year compulsory education now, and it needs to be covered step by step.

So ten years is more than enough.

In the first two years, Shen Xia planned to start a business relationship.

Having money is the first step.

The Taifu was deeply shocked.

Although his grandson said that the current emperor must be the wisest person in history, he still had doubts in his heart.

Although His Majesty has now talked about some plans for the future.

This plan is too brilliant.

It was simply beyond his understanding.

Nine years of compulsory education, that is a huge expense!

The problem is that the national treasury is so empty now.

I’m afraid that in two months, even the salaries of officials won’t be paid.

This idea is fantastic no matter how you look at it.

But maybe it was because His Majesty's eyes were too firm, so he actually believed it a little bit in his heart.

But whether he can see a live action scene during his lifetime remains to be seen.

The Grand Tutor stood up and knelt down: "This old minister is willing to witness the prosperity of the Great Jin with Your Majesty."

It means that I am willing to continue to share your worries.

Shen Xia nodded: "Okay, remember to attend the morning court tomorrow."

"Yes."

In fact, although the Taifu family has disciples all over the world, they do this to make Gu Yichen feel at ease.

So even his own son was only a fourth-rank official.

The family is not particularly prosperous.

So, have we really let go of power?

Not necessarily.

But the royal scandal implicated the Fu family.

This is really embarrassing.

So resigning simply depends on the attitude of the new emperor.

As for Shen Xia, the position belongs to those with talent.

As long as there is someone who can be useful.

You also need a step, I will give it to you.

This is the relationship between ruler and subject.

Shen Xia left the study and looked at Xiaotian in the main hall.

Xiaotian stood up and said, "Sister, do you want to stay for dinner?"

Xiaotian asked cautiously.

Because my sister is different now than before, she is an emperor who is high above everyone else.

Shen Xia shook her head: "No, I need to go back to the Princess's Mansion."

Xiaotian was a little disappointed.

Shen Xia said, "Xiaotian, do you want to go to the Princess's Mansion with me for dinner?"

When Xiaotian heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Okay."

"Let's go!"

The Grand Tutor and his wife sent Shen Xia to the door together.

Although Shen Xia was visiting incognito.

But there are still a few guards.

More dark places.

Xiaotian looked at a carriage.

hesitate.

"Come up."

"Okay." The corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
