Be a master through ancient times

"...That's the way it is. Now that these masters are here, Master Chu, please explain the reason for this, so as not to chill the hearts of the people below!" Lu Zhifu said meaningfully.

Chu Ci nodded, and said: "If it should be explained clearly, I will explain it clearly. It's just that I don't understand something. I wonder if you can explain it to me?"

The few people who were watched by Chu Ci were a little nervous. They had never seen this Tixue adult before, and they didn't expect to be so young.It's just this whole body's aura that doesn't look like a young man at all.

Seeing that they were silent, Chu Ci said directly: "The government posted the official document. If you have other thoughts after reading it, the correct step should be that you first report the situation to the county chief, and then the county chief Inform the branch inspector, and finally respond to me. At that time, I will give you the best solution based on everyone's opinions. However, you seem to have never thought of seeking Chu's theory, but directly reported this Report the matter to the government, and hope the government will make a decision."

Those people didn't make a sound after hearing this. Chu Ci looked around, took everyone's expressions into his eyes, and continued:

"I would like to know, why didn't you come to me directly? Do you know that this kind of behavior is called Yue Litigation? There is a saying in the law of Wei Dynasty that the people who go beyond Litigation can stick fifty. And I heard that you knocked on Dengwen For the drummers, according to the law, the person who beats the drums should stick [-] sticks first, regardless of the reason, that is [-] sticks. Seeing that you are intact, it must be that the magistrate did not follow the rules."

As soon as Chu Ci finished speaking, the expressions of those people in the courtroom were not very good-looking.The magistrate smiled awkwardly, but the expressions on the faces of those who complained were both shocked and angry.A master who was kneeling on the ground said: "If we went to you at that time, I am afraid that we would have been murdered at this moment. How would we have the opportunity to express our grievances? The magistrate spared us from the board. He is merciful, and he is as good as you. no the same!"

When the magistrate heard this, he wanted to thank his eight generations of ancestors.These words sounded like a compliment to him at first glance, but in reality they were holding him back.It sounds good to be compassionate, but it is hard to say that it is the benevolence of a woman. An official should be resolute and courageous. He should act according to the law. How can he be easily influenced by other things?

Lu Zhifu quietly raised his eyes to look at Chu Ci, and found that the corners of his lips were raised, as if he had succeeded in a trick.

Little did they know that Chu Ci was not thinking about this.The person who just spoke was full of grief and indignation, but the person who listened was inexplicable.The corners of Chu Ci's mouth twitched. If he hadn't heard it with his own ears, he might never have heard such absurd things in his life. Some people thought he would commit murder and silence.It seems that his image management is not good enough!Chu Ci reflected deeply.

"I don't know on what basis this master came to such a conclusion? Chu admits that he has never done anything harmful to nature, and has never used his official position to bully others since the day he became an official. You can tell that you have slandered Is it a crime for others too? Let me think about it, the person who makes a false accusation is a crime."

Chu Ci spoke righteously without any hesitation.Of course, the sooner you refute the words that hurt your reputation, the better, and you can't let such rumors spread among the people.Today he still intends to harm people, but tomorrow he may directly kill people.It's really cool to spread rumors for a while, and it's a waste of time to refute them.

The man was speechless when he was asked. Originally, what he said was just everyone's guess.At that time, Wang Lisong wanted to go to the Department of Education to find out, but the person who stopped him from persuading him said so.

"Master Zhifu, now is not the time to ask why we didn't follow the rules. The most important thing at present is to ask Master Chu to explain why we closed the village school privately, so that children have nowhere to go to school?" After taking control, he quickly came out to speak, bringing everyone back to the original question.

Prefect Lu coughed, nodded in agreement, and said, "Ahem, yes, Mr. Chu, you should explain clearly what was reported on the pleadings first. As for their further litigation, we can discuss it later."

Chu Ci laughed lightly: "Since the adults have said so, then Chu will explain clearly the closure of the ten village schools as the adults said."

Wang Lisong and others looked at Chu Ci directly, wanting to hear how he explained it.

Chu Ci said: "In our Zhangzhou Prefecture, there are a total of 140 schools, including the twelve village schools that were closed. These village schools have obtained documents issued by the government. The money is all allocated by the local county government. This is the preferential treatment given to the students by the Holy Majesty, so that everyone in the Wei Dynasty has the opportunity to read and write, which is a great thing."

Chu Ci changed the topic: "However, these village schools are now in name only, and the number of students admitted each year is less than ten. If they are left alone as before, then these village schools will become a burden on the county government. The gap in harvest is getting bigger and bigger. If things go on like this, it will be extremely detrimental to the development of Zhangzhou Prefecture—”

Wang Lisong blushed, and interrupted Chu Ci's words excitedly: "My lord, teaching and educating people is no more than doing business. How can we use these worldly things to measure its value? If you just close the village school, you will Let these seven or eight children have nowhere to go to school, and you are also from a peasant family, don’t you know the hardships of going to school in a poor family?”

The people in the courtroom and outside were quiet. This Wang Xiucai revealed his fault face to face. Everyone wanted to see how Chu Ci would react.

Chu Ci looked at Wang Lisong firmly, and Wang Lisong looked at him without fear. After a long time, Chu Ci said, "You are not afraid of things."

Wang Lisong said, "I'm afraid I won't play the drums anymore."

"So it was you who beat the drum? Aren't you afraid that I will blame you?"

"I'm afraid. But there are some things that must be done. If I don't come today, the village school in Xialian Village will definitely be closed. At that time, the eight children in the village school will no longer be able to go to school. No matter what, I will run for them This time, this is my duty as a teacher." Wang Lisong was familiar with the Law of the Great Wei, so he naturally knew what it meant to beat the Dengwen Drum and stand in court, but he had to do it.

Chu Ci admired such a person very much in his heart, but his face was still very cold: "Even if you say that, it can't change the fact that the village school is already a financial burden of the county government. How to win the trust of others?"

Without waiting for Wang Lisong to show a disappointed expression, Chu Ci said again: "Now there is a way, it depends on whether you are willing to try it. If you still want to continue to run that village school, I will make the decision to plan that village school." It is privately owned. From then on, you will be responsible for the repairs of the village school and other monthly payments, and the county government will no longer allocate a penny. At the same time, you are not allowed to charge more for the students. It’s still how much. As long as you agree, the official will not close the village school, what do you think? And you are the same, as long as you agree, the village school will be opened as usual.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Lisong agreed, but the others were full of reluctance.They originally came here for the money allocated by the county government, and the money for repairing the village school and other subsidies every year has been circulated in their hands before it goes out, and there is not much left.To them, being a teacher is nothing more than a means of earning a living.

Now not only can they not earn more money, but they may pay back money instead, so they quit.

Wang Lisong watched their reactions and tried to persuade them to think about the local children, but they refused for various reasons.

"Look, I gave you a chance, but you didn't want it."

Before closing these village schools, Chuci had thought carefully.These twelve village schools are ranked last in the performance appraisal every year. He personally visited these villages and found that they have a bad reputation in the eyes of the people. In addition, there are other schools near these villages. In other places, the students would not have no books to read, so Chu Ci decided to make them the first batch of village schools to be closed.

As for these masters, his original plan was to test them before merging into other places. Now it seems that there is no need for anyone else to stay except for one Wang Lisong. Presumably they have been corrupt after so many years of operation. A lot of money.

However, the result of Wang Lisong's visit is different from his visit. What's going on?
