Jia Yi, a native of Luoyang in the Western Han Dynasty, was a famous politician and thinker in the history of China. As a politician, due to the limitation of the times and environment, he finally failed to realize his ambition, but his political vision and views on political theory have deeply influenced his educational thought, which is more systematic and long-term based on the long-term stability of the country. Jia Yi's early education thoughts are mainly reflected in the new book, which can be divided into the following points.
The first is to regard ethics as the foundation of governing the country. Jia Yi, who summed up the lessons of Qin State, believes that "breaking etiquette and abandoning morality" is the root cause of social disorder. He has Confucianism and emphasizes the rule of the country by courtesy. The function of ethics is to nip in the bud, which determines that this theory of governing the country must be realized through enlightenment. Because he inherited Confucianism, he emphasized the primacy of enlightenment with very strict thinking.
Second, the significance of monarch education. The ancient feudal society was based on the autocratic monarchy, and the quality of the monarch decided the rise and fall of the country to a great extent, so the education of the monarch, the heir to the monarch, was extremely important and of special significance.
The third is prenatal education and the system of caring for women. Jia Yi believes that there is little difference in human nature, and the big difference mainly exists in the gestation period and the cultivation after birth, that is, prenatal education and after birth. Prenatal education thought is the characteristic content of China's ancient education theory. What Fu Bao said is to create good educational conditions for the prince. This is not only easy to implement educational theory, but also very effective. Although Jia Yi thinks so, he also knows that it is completely impossible to completely eliminate the bad influence.
Jia yi's works
Jia Yi was a famous politician and writer in ancient China. There are two main types of Jia Yi's works, namely prose and ci fu. The representative works of prose include On Qin and Chen Zheng's Poems. The representative works of Ci and Fu are Qu Yuan's Diao Fu and Bird Catch Fu.
Jia Yi, born in the seventh year of Emperor Gao of the Han Dynasty, loved literature since childhood and was knowledgeable. When Emperor Wen ascended the throne, he was recommended as a doctor because of the appreciation of Wu Gong. Later, he put forward "On Storing and Sparing", in which Jia Yi's works were praised by Wendi, who advocated attaching importance to agricultural development and encouraging agricultural production, and played a positive role in the economic recovery of Han Dynasty and the establishment of the foundation of feudal rule. However, because Jia Yi violated the interests of many ministers in the DPRK and was framed by courtier Deng Tong, Jia Yi was finally expelled from the capital, and he thought of Qu Yuan, who was in the same situation as himself. Therefore, when he crossed the Xiangjiang River, he thanked a song "Hanging Qufu Garden", which expressed his admiration for Qu Yuan in this way and also expressed his inner resentment by describing Qu Yuan. After being demoted to Changsha, he became the teacher of Changsha Wang and wrote "Bird-catching Fu" out of emotion. Because of this, Jia Yi's former residence remains in Changsha as a memorial. In the seventh year of Emperor Wendi, Emperor Wendi recalled Jia Yi back to Beijing again. However, due to long-term depression, Jia Yi blamed himself after King Huai of Liang fell off a horse, crying all day, and died of depression the next year.
Although Jia Yi died early, his literary talent and talent made future generations admire and admire him. Sima Qian also wrote Biography of Qu Yuan and Jia Sheng in Historical Records and Biography of Jia Yi in Hanshu. It can be seen that people from all walks of life in all periods admired him very much and expressed regret for his early death.

In the second year of Emperor Wen, Jia Yi's On Accumulation and Sparse Storage was recognized by Emperor Wen. At the same time, Jia Yi also helped Wendi revise many policies and state decrees. As a result, Jia Yi offended many veteran heroes. Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty had a prized official, Deng Tong. Although he has no talent, he is regarded as a confidant because of the superstition of Emperor Wendi. He and Jia Yi dislike each other. In the case of Deng Tong's repeated slander, Emperor China alienated Jia Yi, who was expelled from the capital. In the 11th year of Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty, Jia Yi, as the teacher of King Huai of Liang, was depressed when he saw Wang Huai fall to his death. In the 12th year of Emperor Wendi (BC 168), Jia Yi died of depression. At the age of 33.
