Li Changqing's reform of the education system has caused quite a stir.

In the previous basic education system of the Tang Dynasty, schools were set up in various places. Every child aged to six years old must go to the school to learn basic knowledge, writing and literacy, etc.

This system was criticized and complained about when it first came out, but its development in the following years has proved how wise this system is.

It can be said that the people of the Tang Dynasty are now enlightened and their cultural level has improved, half of which can be attributed to this system.

This time the reform of the education system is even more direct, changing three years to six years and increasing the intensity of education.

After the news of the reform of the education system spread, there was a lot of public discussion

………

Chang'an City, the lobby of a restaurant.

Restaurants have always been a gathering place for people from all walks of life. Almost all kinds of people come here.

If you have enough money in your pocket, you can go to the second floor to order some food and drinks quietly. If you don't have much money, you can order some food in the lobby downstairs, which is enough.

An old farmer in simple clothes walked into the restaurant. This old farmer seemed to be a regular customer of the restaurant. After he came in and found an empty seat to sit down, he ordered a meat and a vegetarian dish. He also ordered a pot of wine and took it. He picked up the Wang newspaper on the table and started reading it.

When he saw in the newspaper that the education system had been reformed from the original three years to six years, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh and complained:"The imperial court is really good at tossing people. My grandson just finished studying for three years last year." , I was planning to let him learn to do farm work, but it turns out he has to study for another three years. What's the matter!"

Children from farm families will start learning to do farm work when they are almost nine or ten years old. After all, children from poor families Be in charge early.

Although no family in the Tang Dynasty has enough to eat, children of families who are not wealthy still have to work hard.

Things like this old farmhouse are not uncommon in the Tang Dynasty.

Even in today's Tang Dynasty, education is still affordable only for wealthy families. After all, attending a private school is not cheap.

After hearing the old farmer's complaint, a middle-aged man in a mandarin jacket at the other table showed an unhappy expression and said angrily:"Old brother, what you said is wrong. The court is doing this to benefit the people." Therefore, children should study more."

The old farmer obviously disagreed and said with a curl of his lips:"We, a commoner family, have been farmers for generations, can we still have a seed for reading? If I have time to go to this elementary school to study, I can teach my children Let's do farm work."

The middle-aged man shook his head and said:"No matter what you do in the future, it is always right to study more and gain some culture. My family is not rich, but I have always sent my son to a private school. Now the court has opened a school. My son can go in directly."

His words made the guests at other tables agree with him, and echoed:"This old man is right. The Tang Dynasty is stable now, and wars are rare. It is no better than the previous troubled times. We civilians If you want to get ahead, you can only rely on studying and taking the imperial examination."

"When His Majesty Emperor Wu established the imperial examination system, he opened a dragon gate for the poor people in the world. Now that he has formulated this policy, he really has the interests of our people in mind. What else is there to be dissatisfied with?"

This guest was wearing a Confucian robe. He was a scholar and had very unique opinions. Many people nodded secretly. The old farmer was a little shocked by what the scholar said. He scratched his head and said,"That's right. His Majesty, Emperor Wu, is like this. Mingjun, everything must be done for the good of our people. Listening to what you say, I have to let my children study when I go back."

"There is no need to sell the matter, this kind of primary school does not charge tuition fees as before. Wang Bao said it is compulsory education. In my opinion, it is really a policy that benefits all the people."

The scholar smiled, with a tone of admiration and admiration.

The topic of discussion here attracted the attention of many people in the restaurant lobby. After hearing their words, they all expressed their own views and opinions. , the vast majority support the opening of primary schools

"By the way, have you seen that the imperial court also said that it would build sports stadiums in various counties in Datang and encouraged us to exercise more? What do you think this means?"

One of the drinkers mentioned something about the sports ground, with a bit of confusion in his tone.

Another guest who looked like a businessman said helplessly:"I know what the court means. Although our Tang Dynasty has strong folk customs, we really have to compete with those people. The physiques of the foreign people in the Outer Territory State are really not good enough."

Everyone didn't believe it. One of the drinkers said angrily:"Isn't it possible? Are those foreigners that strong? The businessman rolled his eyes and said angrily,"I'm a businessman. Wouldn't I know that?" You all watched the Datang Cup football match some time ago. The physiques of the black and white people in it, hey, can be seen everywhere in Outland State, but how many of their heads can be seen in our Datang?"

The drinker who had just spoken was stunned, then sneered, shrank his neck, and said nothing.

In fact, the difference in physical quality is due to different races, but it can also be made up for through active exercise, just like those sergeants in the army. This is also the reason why Li Changqing built a sports ground to encourage exercise

"With both civil and military skills, His Majesty King Wu is indeed a wise king who is rare to see in a thousand years, and he is very considerate in his actions."

An old man stroked his snow-white beard and praised.

Everyone agreed.

……

Situations like this are not uncommon in the Tang Dynasty. People in various states and regions have different opinions on reforming the education system and setting up sports grounds, but in the final analysis they all support it.

Because there are still many smart people, it is easy to see the good intentions behind this policy.

People's support for these two policies is very high, and because schools and sports fields are planned to be built near the newly developed properties, these buildings have become more popular and popular, and almost every one of them has been snapped up.

If Li Changqing hadn't ordered the court to intervene, the prices of these buildings would probably have been sold at sky-high prices.

Housing in a school district... seems to be very popular in any era.
