In addition, the Academy of Yangyou was established to educate postgraduates.

Historical records

Tang Zhou was born in Qiongshan. He was a Jinshi in the 15th year of Hongzhi. The head of the household department. Return with worry. Liu Jin denounced those who did not go to the government for a long time and took over their posts. Jin Zhu, summon, mother old not out. At the beginning of Jiajing, he became an official. In order to make a temple for Zhao and Luo, the dead ministers of Song Dynasty. He moved to Guangxi to study. The local officials, Yao and Manxi were sent to school. He is the Deputy envoy of Zhuojin Teng. The chieftain was reckless and cruel, so he planned to capture him. Mubang and Mencius raised soldiers and sent envoys to proclaim, so mubang offered land. He moved to Guangxi many times. The government and army had failed to fight against the bandits in Gutian for a long time. Zhou sent envoys to pacify them and said, "it was the envoys of the former Tang Dynasty who ordered my son to be a scholar." That is to say, it's the antidote. He promoted the right deputy capital censor, toured the South and Jiangxi, and moved to Shandong. He moved to Nanjing as a right servant. Fifteen years to change the north, into the left Shilang. If the emperor did not pay tribute to Annan for a long time, he would ask for it, and Guo Xun praised it again. The imperial edict sent the royal guards to ask for a certificate, and the Chinese and foreign strict soldiers were ready to go. Zhoushang Shujian said: if you know what is going on today, if you want to pay tribute, you don't have to use the soldiers, and the officials don't have the capacity to send them. If you want to discuss it, there are seven things you can't do

The ancient emperors did not rule barbarians with China's rule, so Annan did not levy. His book is Zuxun. One, too.

Since Taizong destroyed Li Jiyuan, he begged Chen not to go to the prefectures and counties. After the soldiers even puzzled, renmiao every thought hate. Emperor Zhang's ambition was to abandon it but not to keep it. Today he should follow it. Two also.

The struggle between foreigners and foreigners is a blessing for China. From the Five Dynasties to the Yuan Dynasty, the eight surnames of gengqu, Liu, Shao, Wu, Ding, Li, Li and Chen were abolished one after another. Today's dispute, it is not right to ask, but how to bring disaster to chizi, to threaten the clown, to cut the heart and abdomen to repair the limbs, is not good or harmful. Three also.

If it is said that China is near, it should be taken by random. Chen Kao Ma's aid to the southern expedition, deep Li wave Park, the death of almost half of the soldiers, set up a bronze column for the Han Dynasty, is near the ear of the Siming house. Although the first dynasty was peaceful, it was rebellious again and again. Hundreds of thousands of Chinese scholars and horses had spent more than 20 years of financial resources, only to get the name of ten counties. What's more, there are some stories about the Emperor Taizong and Shenzong of the Song Dynasty, the emperor Xianzong of the Yuan Dynasty and the emperor Shizu? This is a good example. Four also.

It is the benefit of foreign countries to pay tribute. On the one hand, zhengshuo was honored to serve its neighbors, and on the other hand, trade was conducted to satisfy its country. Therefore, in spite of the war and chaos, there are still a lot of documents and materials to be provided, and the money is collected from the customs. If he wants to pay tribute, he has to resist it. It's not the right word to blame. Five.

To start a teacher, you have to pay. Today, there is a wood mining battle in Sichuan, a division in KaiKou in Guizhou, and hundreds of thousands of reserves in Guangdong and Guangxi, which is consumed in the battle of cenmeng in Tianzhou. How can we give it to you? LiuYe.

But I'm worried about more than that. The decline of Tang Dynasty began with the battle of Nanzhao. The decline of Song Dynasty began from the battle of emperor Shenzong. Today, the northern bandits are getting stronger and stronger, according to our Hetao. The side soldiers repeatedly betrayed and destroyed my fence. In the northern part of the dynasty, the discussion of the southern expedition was even more enlightened. There was something unexpected. Who was to blame? Seven also.

It's more dark than the general. If you slightly pervert the truth of right and wrong, you will not be satisfied with it, and you will lose your prestige. That is to say, if you want to get the feeling by asking, you can't cut it, if you don't cut it, and if you don't have a basis for advance or retreat, why do you plan? At the beginning of the imperial edict of Yan Bing, the harm of asking for harassment has taken shape. The worry is that it is not in the foreign countries, but in the country. Please stop sending the survey officials and stop all the recruitment. The world is very lucky.

Please discuss from the Ministry of war. The order is to be further discussed by the exploration officials. In April next year, the emperor decided to levy. The minister pan Zhen, the governor pan Dan of Guangdong and Guangxi, and the censor Yu Guang successively remonstrated, but they did not accept. After that, he sent Mao Bowen to him, and then he sent him to Fu Jiang.

Guo Xun is the ancestor of Ying, so please enjoy it. Zhou Shuzheng. If the emperor wants to offer sacrifices to the emperor's Ming Tang, he can't match God. The emperor was so angry that he issued an imperial edict to torture and plunder the prisoners and cut off their books. When encountering amnesty and regaining the crown, he will die. At the beginning of Longqing, it was presented to the censor of Youdu.
