Since the original Guozijian was burned down in a fire in May, until now, the damaged books of the Guozijian have not been fully replaced, let alone rebuilding the Guozijian.

Now, it is just the right time to start this project to make use of a large number of disaster victims.

It took Du Heguang three full days to design the blueprint of the New Imperial Academy.

Of course, this is long enough for Du He, but for the builders of this era, it can be regarded as super speed. It is said that when the Tai Chi Palace was built, even if hundreds of craftsmen participated in the design, it took a lot of time. More than half a year.

Three days later, Du He summoned Fang Xuanling from the left, Du Ruhui from the right, Sun Wuji, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, Duan Lun, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, and many others from the six ministries of the three provinces, and held a meeting at the Work Relief Headquarters. The meeting, the main topic of the meeting was to agree on the reconstruction of Guozijian.

The first is to discuss the reconstruction plan. Everyone has discussed for a long time but there is no result. Li Er mentioned the matter of rebuilding the Imperial College a long time ago. However, the treasury could not keep up with the money, so it was put on hold. Now, Du He actually mentioned this matter. Everyone They all threw cold water.

"Uncle Huyi County, it's not that we don't support this matter. There is really nothing we can do. One month ago, His Majesty called us to discuss in the Taiji Hall. The reconstruction of the Imperial College will cost at least 100 million yuan. Now, my Tang Dynasty This year, due to the cold spring, 2000 million guan was spent on disaster relief alone, and the war between the west and Tubo may break out at any time. At that time, the money in the treasury will flow out like running water again. Once one million yuan is used to rebuild the Imperial College, I am afraid that there will be no more money in the treasury by then... His Majesty will never agree to this matter."

"That's right, 100 million guan is not a small sum. I have known it to Xu Zhiyuan before. The daily rations of 30 disaster victims are only a few hundred guan. It will allow the victims to get over it, and by then, all problems will be solved.”

Anyway, no one supported Du He's initiative to rebuild the Guozijian.

Du He heard this, and said sadly: "Everyone, you are all the elites of the Tang Dynasty, and you are His Majesty's capable ministers. Have you never thought about the current situation of the lack of talents in the Tang Dynasty? A century-old plan, education is the foundation, a country If education is not done well, talents cannot be cultivated. Without the support of talents, the country will decline. Can’t you see such a simple truth? Cultivate a group of backbones. These people can read and write, can write and use martial arts. If they are placed in the middle of the court, they can share the worries of His Majesty. ..."

After speaking, Du He stood up, bowed deeply to everyone, and said earnestly: "Du He is not talented, please reconsider this matter, for personal reasons, rebuilding the Imperial College will be difficult and costly, and I don't want to touch it." One thing, Yu Gong, since His Majesty appointed me to be the Commander in Chief of Work for Relief, I can't just think about my own interests, I have to think about His Majesty and the Great Tang..."

Seeing this, many people were a little moved.

In everyone's eyes, Du He was just a bohemian boy before, and he had the reputation of a big liar and a big devil.

But people did not expect that this kid would have such ambitions for the world.

So, everyone sat down again and began to discuss the matter.

The meeting lasted for three hours, and finally reached a consensus. Everyone agreed to rebuild the Imperial College. However, except for Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, no one was willing to jointly play His Majesty Li Er.

When the crowd dispersed, Du Ruhui stayed behind.

Du Ruhui looked at Du He curiously, and asked, "He'er, you know what you can't do but do it, isn't this your style of doing things?"

Today's Du He is simply the embodiment of justice, full of positive energy, and he is completely different from before.

Du He laughed: "Father, you really saw it. That's right, I was just acting... These old foxes shrank each and every one of them, like iron bastards. If you count on them to contribute, you will never be able to do anything in this life." Don't think about it, calling them here today is just for show, as long as His Majesty nods in this matter, everything will be easy to handle..."

"Spending 100 million yuan to rebuild the Imperial College, I'm afraid His Majesty will not agree. Now that Tang Dynasty is in troubled times, we need to spend money everywhere. Although the Imperial College was burned down, there is a place provided by the Minister of Shangshu to maintain it. If you are not in a hurry to rebuild, how could Your Majesty not think of this..." Du Ru said in a dull tone, trying to persuade Du He to give up rebuilding the Imperial College.

Who knows, Du He never thought of giving up.

"Father, I have made up my mind. It is imperative to rebuild the Guozijian. First, only major projects can solve the employment problem of the victims. It's all based on the overall situation, education is really important...not to mention, I have other plans." Du He said resolutely.

Seeing this, Du Ruhui nodded: "Okay, since you have made a decision, Dad will support you. If necessary, I can go to the palace to meet the saint in person."

Du He suddenly showed a confident smile, and said slowly: "That's not necessary. Now, the fire has been lit, and this fire will burn more and more vigorously. When it burns to the ministers, when it burns to the point where you have to love your ass , they couldn't sit still..."

After seeing off Du Ruhui, Du He immediately called Zhang Jian.

Du He asked in a low voice: "How is the preparation going?"

Zhang Jian said cautiously: "Master, don't worry, the news has already been spread. Tonight, the entire Imperial College will know every detail of today's discussion."

"Don't take it lightly. The less people know about this matter, the better. Inciting the students of the Imperial College to make trouble is a serious crime of beheading. Are you afraid?" Du He stared at Zhang Jian and asked.

Zhang Jian shook his head without changing his face: "I'm afraid of a bird, young master, don't worry, even if the matter is revealed, I will not implicate you. I have already asked my brothers to carry poison with them. As long as they are exposed, they will immediately commit suicide by taking poison. Your life is all given to you, young master, even if we have to die, we must die worthwhile!"

"No one has died in life since ancient times..." Du He laughed.

Zhang Jian's eyes lit up. This sentence sounded too reasonable, so he waited for Du He to say the next sentence without blinking.

I just heard Du He say: "Who doesn't use paper when defecating?"

Zhang Jian: "..."

……

(Thanks to [There are always people who want to harm me] [*regret**] brothers for their rewards, and thanks for your support!)

Chapter 263 Petition

Who has never died in life since ancient times, who has water and shit without paper?

Zhang Jian almost knelt down.

Most people can't understand this sentence at all, but Zhang Jian understood it immediately.

The reason is that paper is extremely precious in this era. After going to the toilet, people usually use bamboo chips or sticks to slam it.

But the furniture factory promoted the use of paper two months ago. The reason is that Du He couldn't bear the fact that there were a few sticks stained with feces in the public toilet of the furniture factory. Even if the cost was high, he forced the use of paper Not to mention the convenience, the key is hygiene.

……

Late at night, in the palace.

The lights in the Imperial Study Room of the Tai Chi Palace were still flickering, and had been refueled several times.

Standing in front of the table, Hou Junji reported all the things that happened today: "...I am afraid that it is difficult to make a conclusion on this matter. Opposing the reconstruction of the Imperial College may not be a loyal minister, and Du He strongly advocated the construction of the Imperial College. He is also loyal and a century-old plan. , education is the foundation, and only Du He can say such enlightening words, and he is right. Although my country has been established in the Tang Dynasty for many years, what I lack most is scholars. Officials are still dominated by the military generals of the past, and there is no lack of these people who have both ability and political integrity, but most of them can conquer the world but cannot govern a county a week!"

Li Er put down the brush in his hand, stood up, and said slowly: "I don't know Du He's good intentions, but the money in the national treasury is only tens of millions of pennies. When the war started, what did I use to fight the Tubo people? Did I let Niu Jinda fight with the Tubo cavalry with bare hands? Besides, now that the drought has passed, the 100 victims in Chang'an City are only a part of them, and there are hundreds of thousands in Shandong, Henan and other places The disaster victims are waiting for relief..."

As an emperor, Li Er didn't want to build an unprecedentedly prosperous empire, but his strength didn't allow it.

Hou Jun collected classical Chinese and said with a smile: "It's just that Du He has already confirmed this matter, I'm afraid he won't let it go."

"Hahaha...Of course I know, that kid has a stubborn temper, and he will never give up until he achieves his goal. However, the money is in my treasury. As long as I don't nod, what can he do? I will never agree to this matter. Compared with the tens of thousands of disaster victims in Chang'an City, keeping the money and food in the national treasury is the most important thing." Li Er waved his hand and said resolutely.

……

That night.

In the Imperial College, it was very lively.

More than 100 students gathered in the small courtyard.

I saw a young man standing in the middle of the crowd, giving an impassioned speech.

"Education is the foundation."

it is good!

Everyone started applauding.

The young man said again: "You don't know the situation at that time. Boduhe of Huyi County faced all the ministers of the court alone, fought to the death, and said with a heartbroken heart, my Tang Dynasty lacks everything, but the most lacking thing is It's talents... Talents, everyone, the uncle of Huyi County is talking about us, and we will get fame in the future, and that will be for the benefit of the people. Now, the Imperial College has been forgotten, even Your Majesty, I never mentioned the matter of rebuilding the Guozijian, and we will continue to spend our days in this narrow place. The ministers of the court and the central government only care about our situation. Come out to speak for us and fight for the reconstruction of the Imperial College...Everyone, Du He is our friend and our benefactor."

"Yes, Bo Nai of Huyi County is a friend of our Imperial College!"
