Chapter 611 National People's Congress - Applause, I understand the best!
On November 11, 2018, in the seventh year of Tianli, eighty-eight whale oil lamps in the Tianjing National People's Hall illuminated the hand-painted "The King of Heavenly Kings ascending to Heaven" on the dome, which was so golden. Luo Yaoguo, the Prime Minister of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, stood in front of the podium on the podium, behind them were four "Gods" including Xiao Chaogui, Wei Changhui, Hong Xuanjiao, Maria, and Hong Renyu, and Qin Rigang, two kings who did not reach the "god" level.
In the current "gods" and "kings" system of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, only those who are able to be "relatives of God" or "gods, the disciples of the Holy Mother" are the "gods". There are Feng Yunshan, Yang Xiuqing, Wei Changhui, Shi Dakai (he is said to be reincarnated in the battle angel and is considered to be God's disciples), Luo Yaoguo, Victoria, Hong Xuanjiao, and Maria - that is, if Victoria comes to Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, she can also sit on the rostrum at this time.
Below the "Gods", there are kings without divine character. Currently, there are two "young kings" Hong Renyi and Qin Rigang, and there are two "young kings" Hong Tiangui and Hu Wansheng - one of them is Hong Xiuquan's son and the other is Hu Yihuang's son. Hu Yihuang's health has always been poor and died a few months ago. His eldest son Hu Wansheng was still young, so he did not immediately inherit his father's title, but was called "young king". Hong Tiangui was not only young, but his father was "not dead", so he could not inherit the position of the Heavenly King, so he could only be the "young king" or re-entered another king.
In addition, there are three special existences in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom today, namely "Charle", "Charlem of Heavenly Master Friedrich" and "Divine Concubine Daozi". Although they cannot sit on the rostrum, they are also considered to have a certain "divine character".
At this moment, "Chief Karl" and "Chief Friedrich" were sitting in the auditorium. Bai Siwen borrowed their light and also hit a seat. As soon as the three of them sat in the auditorium, a burst of warm applause rang out in the hall. When the three of them looked up, Luo Yaoguo was already waving to everyone.
Moore, Friedrich took out his notebook and spread it out on the table before the table, Luo Yaoguo's voice suddenly rang out. Somehow, it was very loud, and it suddenly overshadowed the applause in the Great Hall.
"All kings and dear representatives, the "Soon of the Wansu Primary School" discussed today is related to the future and destiny of our Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and is related to the survival and failure of the Heavenly Father and the cause of the Heavenly King!!"
The first issue Luo Yaoguo wants to talk about today is not to attack the remnants of the Qing Dynasty who surrendered and rebelled, but a more important issue - compulsory education!
Luo Yaoguo looked heartbroken: "Last month, the new boiler of Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau exploded because the craftsmen did not know the pressure gauge; last year, when the holy soldiers conquered Sichuan, the troops were often lost and missed the military opportunity, because the officers did not understand the contour line - how can such bloody and tears be taught again?"
Xiao Chaogui stood up suddenly, opened his throat and echoed: "What the King of Wu said is very true! When I was in the Wuchang army, I saw too many peasants who couldn't even calculate the ratio of gunpowder. I don't know how many major things I missed. This education must be done!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the representatives of the Chinese people below applauded, which made the big words "Heavenly Father, Heavenly Brother, Heavenly King Blessing" on the yellow silk slogan hanging between the corridor columns tremble slightly.
In the audience seat, Moore approached Friedrich and whispered: "He actually wanted to run 10,000 primary schools, and this step was too big!"
Friedrich knocked his pipe in the ashtray: "I bet he can't even find ten thousand teachers who can teach elementary school mathematics."
Luo Yaoguo on the stage has given a solution: "I also know the difficulties in the local area, but my requirements are not high, and I do not require that these 10,000 primary schools are as good as primary schools such as Tianjing Fuli Primary School, Suzhou Fuli Primary School, Shanghai Fuli Primary School, and Guangzhou Fuli Primary School. All regions can make a brief summary of the bad things, first invite some scholars and masters to teach "Chinese". As for mathematics, let the teachers who teach "Chinese" and students study on their own! There is not much difficulty in primary school mathematics, and I know how to learn it best. The current "Primary School Mathematics" is written by me based on "Prussian Primary School Mathematics", which is very easy to learn on your own!"
Hong Xuanjiao immediately helped Luo Yaoguo advocate: "It should have been like this long ago! When I was running a literacy class in the palace, some girls taught themselves with "Elementary School Mathematics", and some people were admitted to the top female candidate!"
Luo Yaoguo waited for a while, and after everyone finished slapping, he continued to say: "Sister Xuan Jiao is right. In the past few years, not only have people who have been studying "Elementary School Mathematics" and were admitted to middle school, but also have been studying mathematics, psychics, and things to get into college! It can be seen that self-study can be achieved. The Ministry of Rites and local academic officials will organize high school and university entrance examinations every year in the future. In the future, each county will have at least one county middle school, each prefecture will open a county higher middle school, and each province will have at least one university! As long as you are willing to study hard, everyone can take the exam. I only look at the scores and don’t ask about anything else, and you will have a mathematics reading after passing the exam!"
There was another thunderous applause from the people below!
Moore frowned in the audience, speaking in a very light German: "He wants to use self-study and exams to select tens of thousands or thousands of the hardest and smartest students from tens of thousands of primary schools and millions of primary schools. This method is very similar to those who advocate the prevalence of the weak and the survival of the fittest!"
Friedrich said in a shorthand that the pencil rustled on the parchment: "Don't value education, just focus on exams, and selecting geniuses by scores will probably make the children of workers and farmers completely lose interest in reading!"
Bai Siwen hummed, "It's just that the imperial examinations take mathematics, psychics, and things. Children from poor families don't want to learn at all. The descendants of scholarly families will naturally be forced to study. In the end, they will change the soup and not change the medicine, and cultivate a group of nerds who only know how to take the exam. I think it's better for British education!"
Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered his wife and children who stayed in Beijing. They might have followed the Queen Mother to Xi'an. If they could find them this time, they would take them abroad. Let the children go to the UK for education and attend Eton or Harrow School. That is the real place to cultivate talents. With the recommendation letter from Prince Albert, the principals of these two public schools will definitely find that both his sons have extremely excellent qualities.
There was a "pop".
Luo Yaoguo suddenly slapped the table, which made the blue and white tea cups on the podium jingle: "The death of the Ming Dynasty in the past was due to corruption; the defeat of the Qing Dynasty was due to extravagance! Our Taiping Heavenly Kingdom must learn lessons and prevent problems before they happen!"
Premier Luo's voice suddenly sank - "Surprise Ten Thousand Primary School Case" has been voted and passed in a thunderous applause!
The second issue Luo Yaoguo is going to talk about today is the corruption and extravagance that began to emerge in the officialdom of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in the past two years.
Xiao Chaogui, who had more than 20 princesses, was the first to stand up and applaud hard - he said so well, Xiao Chaogui hated corrupt officials the most! When he attacked Huguang and Guangxi, he killed countless corrupt officials. The millions of taels of silver in the "Little Holy Cube" of the Western Prince's Mansion were all scammered from the corrupt officials' homes!
Wei Changhui, who had just received ten Japanese beauties from Hong Daquan, also stood up and applauded. He also hated corrupt officials. Back then, in Guangxi, their family could have been hurt by corrupt officials, otherwise he would not have rebelled! Later, when he was in charge of Jiangxi, he also confiscated many corrupt officials' homes. 30% of the money collected was deposited into the North Palace Vault, 30% of the money was deposited into the Jiangxi Holy Library, and 40% were sent to Tianjin to be transferred to Tianjin Holy Library.
"I hate corrupt officials the most!" Luo Yaoguo pulled out a draft of the "Corruption Law" from his sleeve, "According to this method, anyone who embezzled a hundred taels but did not exceed a thousand taels will be punished for ten to thirty years! More than a thousand taels but less than ten thousand taels will be beheaded no matter what position he holds! More than a thousand taels will be Lingchi!"
There was thunderous applause from the audience.
This time, Hong Xuanjiao took the lead in standing up, and the jade cross hanging on her big breasts was so green that she could attract attention. Maria took out a golden abacus and fiddled with the abacus beads, as if she was calculating how many times she should get? She was in charge of Luo Yaoguo's "Prophecy Fund". In the past two years, she has been greedy for "Prophecy Transactions"!
Moore sneered in the auditorium: "The one who should be beheaded the most is probably the group of 'gods' on the stage."
Friedrich painted a satirical cartoon on his notebook: Luo Yaoguo held a machete in his hand, but the one who was kneeling on his knife was.
Bai Siwen leaned closer and whispered: "At that time, Mr. Jiaqing had investigated Heshen and those people behind Luo Yaoguo, which one could be investigated?"
"It is better to chase the enemy with the remaining courage!" When talking about the Qing Dynasty that was attacking the northwest, Luo Yaoguo suddenly raised his tone and waved his fists, "I should write a poem to strengthen the army's might!"
Maria immediately held a pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Luo Yaoguo wrote ink, and the pen was splashed between dragons and snakes. A poem "Seven-character Code. Western Expedition" was written - of course this poem was done by Zhao Liewen and Weng Tonghe and others, but it was counted under Luo Yaoguo's name.
Fu Shanxiang led the twelve dancers to sing under the rostrum: "Qinlong beacon smoke came, and the heavenly soldiers were 100,000 lower than the wheel platform. The clouds were scattered across the vast sea, and thousands of flags were moved, and the snow filled the Qilian horses were mourning. The Yumen had already broken into the Yumen and collected the Han Bi, and even urged the iron cavalry to cross the Yin Mountain. Don't ask about the title of marquis, and kill Loulan and report back."
Moore listened to the dancers singing, but thought to see what China, which had not been swept by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, looked like?
Friedrich wrote in his notebook: "His Royal Highness of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom married the sister of the Queen Mother of the Qing Dynasty, and was eager to destroy the Qing Dynasty. Did he want to bring all the Nara sisters into his harem?"
The newest ⊥小⊥小⊥ said⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥!
The applause rang again. This time, Xiao Chaogui took the lead and stood up hard, slapped hard. Wei Changhui nodded frequently while applauding.
As the night became darker, the lights were decorated in the King of Wu’s Mansion. As soon as Moore and others returned to the guest room, they heard the sound of firecrackers shaking. Fu Shanxiang came over slowly, and the red robe and red scarf looked very festive.
"Three gentlemen, the King of Wu is invited." She smiled pursed her lips, "Today is the good day for the King of Wu and Prince Wanzhen."
Bai Siwen shook his head and chuckled: "I was still denying Nara just now, and I married his sister in a blink of an eye. The King of Wu really understood the best."
In the Xi Hall, Luo Yaoguo was having a cup with Wanzhen. Maria played the piano, while the twelve dancers in the King of Wu’s mansion rotated with the tune of "Ode to Heavenly Father".
Moore raised his glass and spoke meaningfully in German: "Cheers to this kingdom of heaven that has improved but not fully improved."
Friedrich later wrote this in his notebook: "What makes people feel hopeful is that in the near future, the real workers' kingdom will eventually win."
Chapter completed!
