Crossing the Happy Daughter

Since Long Wenbai witnessed the departure of his father and mother, his temperament has changed a lot after returning to the capital, and he is no longer so detached. After this incident, he has become a lot calmer.

Since the sea trade business has lost the pirates, everything has been smooth sailing, and it has gone further and further.

The business is doing well, the Western gadgets are profitable, and they earn more money, so I just want to fulfill the last wish of the mother-in-law, which is what the mother-in-law told them before.

He asked Zhan Yi to spend 100,000 taels of silver every year to help poor places build private schools. Each place would find two gentlemen, and they would pay the money.

The mother-in-law said that the country will progress when there are more scholars. If one can't eat one bite, he will do the same thing every year. I believe that over time, there will always be gains.

The mother concubine also told them that no matter how much money you earn, it's just a number. It's better to use it to do something meaningful.

He went to see a private school that was just built, and when he heard the reading sounds of the children in the school and saw the smiling faces, it really made people feel comfortable.

A few years have passed, and the entire Longteng has basically achieved private school coverage. In addition, the Holy Master Long Wenbin has cooperated with the imperial decree. No matter whether boys or girls reach the age of six, they must attend a private school and learn to read, otherwise they will pay a fine.

After passing the assessment of the Three Character Classic, Hundred Family Surnames, Thousand Character Characters and Maths, students can be suspended from school after issuing a certificate of completion, or they can choose to pass the assessment and issue a customs clearance certificate.

After the age of ten, the imperial court is no longer bound, you can go home to work, or you can continue to study in private schools.

Of course, these do not conflict with the candidates who took the imperial examinations. These four years are the same as modern compulsory education, which means that there is no need to spend money to go to school.

In order to prevent some families from taking it seriously, the imperial court made a rule that those who did not attend private schools on time at the school age or were suspended from school without obtaining a certificate of completion before the age of ten would have to pay fines of silver, unless the village issued a certificate to the county government for the record.

Today's Long Wenbai has come out of his grief. He has three sons and one daughter under his knees. Time is the best healing medicine. This is what the mother-in-law once said.

As soon as Long Wenbai came back from outside, he saw his sons and daughters running towards him, and the youngest daughter said, "Father, the royal uncle asked us to enter the palace to accompany him for dinner.

We have all packed up, just wait for the father and the king to return to the house, and the mother and concubine have prepared clothes for you. "

Long Wenbai said: "It's still early, what's the hurry?"

The son said, "Father, if we enter the palace earlier, we can still play with cousins ​​and cousins ​​for a while."

Long Wenbai smiled and said, "Okay, then the father will come when he goes."

The family entered the palace, finished the meal, and the children went out to play. Long Wenbai followed the saint to the imperial study, and the palace maid left after serving tea.

Long Wenbin said, "Little Si, the county king has been doing it for almost twenty years."

Said and handed an imperial decree, Long Wenbai stretched out his hand to take it, opened it and saw that it was the imperial decree to be canonized as a prince.

Long Wenbai looked at his eldest brother: "Brother knows, my younger brother doesn't care about this at all."

Long Wenbin said: "I know, but this is the only thing that my brother can give you. How much you have done for the court over the years, the elder brother sees it all. I will tell the world tomorrow."

The next day, Eunuch Chu, who was beside the sage, swaggered through the market with the imperial edict, and there were guards behind him carrying a plaque. After the imperial edict was sent to the Haijun Wangfu, he directly replaced the plaque.

In less than an hour, the news of Haijun Wang's canonization as a prince spread all over the streets and alleys of the capital. Everyone said that the daughter of the Tang family was blessed. The daughter of a small family has now become a princess.

Make those wives and young ladies of noble families envious.

It was night, and Long Wenbai looked at the stars in the sky and said softly, "Father, mother and concubine, my son is doing well now, how are you all doing?"

Looking at the stars in the sky, he believed that the father and mother must be living happily in another world, and silently said to the father and mother in his heart: "My son misses you, and the fourth misses you."

A cloak was lightly on his body, Long Wenbai gently grabbed Tang Xinting's hand, and the two stood next to each other under the moonlight, full of happiness!
