MTL - Crossing the Happy Daughter-Chapter 1673 Extra 6

   Chapter 1673 Fanwai Six

  Long Wenbai has changed a lot since he witnessed the departure of his father and his wife, and returned to the capital. He is no longer so detached, and has become much calmer after this incident.

  The sea trade business has gone without the pirates, everything has been smooth sailing, and it has gone further and further.

  The business is doing well, the Western gadgets are very 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 found two gentlemen, and they paid the money.

  The concubine said that the more people who read, the country will progress. If you can't eat one bite, then he will do the same thing every year. I believe that over time, there will always be gains.

  The 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 had just been built. When he heard the reading sounds of the children in the school and saw the smiling faces, it really made people feel comfortable.

   Several years have passed, and the entire Longteng has basically achieved private school coverage. In addition, Sheng Shang 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.

  The three-character classics, 100-family surnames, 1,000-character characters, and arithmetic must pass the assessment, and the certificate of completion can be issued before suspension of school, or after the age of ten, they can also 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 are not in conflict with the candidates who took the imperial examination. 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 not taking it seriously, the imperial court made a rule that those who do not attend private schools on time when they reach the school age or who are suspended from school without obtaining a graduation certificate before the age of ten must pay a fine of silver, unless there are special circumstances where a certificate from the village is submitted 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 children 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, we enter the palace early, and we can play with cousins ​​and cousins ​​for a while."

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

  The family entered the palace, finished the meal, and the children went out to play. Long Wenbai followed the sage to the imperial study, and the palace maids all withdrew after bringing tea.

  Long Wenbin said: "Little Si, the county king has been working for nearly 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: "Big brother knows, my younger brother doesn't care about this at all now."

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

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

   In less than an hour, the news of Haijun Wang being canonized 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, and now she has become a princess.

   Make those wives and young ladies of noble families envious.

   It was night, Long Wenbo looked at the stars in the sky and said softly, "Father, mother, 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: "The son misses you, the fourth misses you."

   A cloak was lightly on the upper body, Long Wenbai gently grabbed Tang Xinting's hand, the two stood side by side under the moonlight, full of happiness!
