Xinshun 1730

Chapter 513 The Emperor's Occupational Disease
A "shi" and a "lian" sound similar.But at this time, especially for the memorial to the emperor, the choice of words and sentences had to be careful and clear.

From Liu Yu's inadvertent remarks over the years, Li Gan thought about the word "Lian" that he had smeared out.

The Dazai chapter of "Zhou Li" says: The third is the official union, which is ruled by the official.Annotated by Zheng Xuan of the Han Dynasty, it says: The official union means that one official cannot be alone in major national affairs, and the six officials jointly promote them.Together, it is called the union.

Especially after Dashun experienced various slogans of the late Ming Dynasty, such as uniting the captives to suppress the bandits, uniting the bandits to defeat the captives, uniting the Ming to protect the world, and so on.Lian, the word, first of all, has a meaning of equal treatment in it.

In the beginning, Liu Yu stood out because of the Yongning Temple inscription.At that time, Li Gan felt that it was normal to share joys and sorrows with the soldiers, but he just read some military books and wanted to follow the example of General Li in governing the army.

But later, for more than ten years, Li Gan felt a little curious about his servant's name and various actions in the army.

If a person is artificial or deceitful, it is impossible for more than ten years to be like a day. Only when the heart is like this, can the outside and the inside be unified.Just considering Liu Yu's background, it's hardly surprising.

But there was no reason for this strangeness. Li Gan thought about it for a while, then smiled, and threw aside the old memorial that had been smeared and corrected.

I sandwiched the piece of paper with the word "circle" in the book, thought about it, and felt that it was not appropriate to say it was a circle.

Those who are penned are pigs, cattle and sheep.Those who give up are chickens, ducks and geese.

It seems that it is more like a peasant woman raising chickens, and she can usually fetch eggs.But if you are really hungry to the extreme, you can't care so much, you can only kill chickens and eat meat.

According to the court, it is the old system of Maipu in the Song Dynasty, according to the story 600 years ago.

It's just that Li Gan knew in his heart that it was said that Song Shi bought the old system, but in fact it was probably different.What will become of the future, we can only take one step at a time.

People in this era are always full of uneasiness about new things and fear of the unknown.

Unlike the decades after the advent of the steam engine, human self-confidence swelled to the point where nothing can be added, thinking that everything in the universe can only be deduced by reason, and that human inventions can change everything, including the entire universe, and they are always full of new things. Beautiful fantasies and expectations.

But in this era, the dead climbed out of the coffin 300 years ago, and it only took a few days to perfectly adapt to all life at this time. The scholar who was 300 years ago can still be a scholar here, and he may not even need to learn anything more.Grandpa's experience is always useful, so he became more and more inexplicably uneasy about new things.

As the emperor, Li Gan's uneasiness and fear were actually even more serious.It's just that Liu Yu has been by my side for a long time and communicates more and more days, and it seems that he can always talk about the changes that will be brought to those things that he has never seen before.After all, people at this time are not afraid of new things, but are still afraid of the unknowns that cannot be learned from history.

Because of this, Li Gan agreed to Liu Yu's request to go to the West.He wanted to see, after Liu Yu left, what problems would there be with those new things, whether it was the navy, trading companies, immigration, or the new Whale Sea system.

In a vague way, Li Gan already had some doubts about Liu Yu's "reporting good news but not bad news".

As long as he is there, he will control it quietly, and there will be no things that make the emperor uneasy or unhappy.

So Li Gan wanted him to leave for a while to have a look, to see clearly.

Sailing to the West would take at least two or three years. If there was no Liu Yu to fiddle here, there should be some problems.

Li Gan vaguely felt that he had been silently eliminating some hidden worries and taking precautions, so that he, the emperor, could only see what Liu Yu wanted him to see.

This is not considered a crime of deceiving the emperor, but rather a recognition made by the emperor through Liu Yu's consistent performance over the years.Just like the previous battle in the Western Regions, he first borrowed a knife to kill the leader, forcing the court to follow his plan.Although it was similar to the imperial court's design, the emperor had already warned Liu Yu at that time.

But this time in the battle to conquer the Japanese, Liu Yu's actions were not out of line.However, his "incurable" style of dealing with Japan's planning and sea power issues deepened Li Gan's feeling.

Before there is a problem, strangle the problem in the infancy, instead of waiting for the problem to be solved.

Is it the same when switching to these new things?Could it be that these new things are not all as good as Liu Yu said, but have major problems in themselves, but Liu Yu has been sitting in control, making these major problems suppressed before they show signs.

The reason why the emperor still trusted Liu Yu was that Liu Yu felt that this road was good for Dashun and the country.

It’s just that these innovations were afraid of any problems, causing the emperor to worry, or saying that he would give up eating because of choking, thus cutting off the possibility of this road.

The supremacy of the imperial power, this question itself is a question of trust.

Trust, then this is commendable and well-intentioned.

If you don't trust him, then you have an ulterior motive.

At this time, the trust is strong, and he knows how to advance and retreat. He seems to be a model of a courtier.But Li Gan still hoped that he could see with his own eyes what these new things would look like without Liu Yu's presence.

In other words, after these new things have problems, can he, the emperor, or the rest of the courtiers, deal with it?
If so, then of course this way is fine.

But what if you can't?

Liu Yu has always said that he is just a middle-of-the-road figure, and also said that the commander of the Dutch who occupied Taiwan back then, and those who destroyed the South American empire by hundreds of people, were actually third- and fourth-rate figures.

When it comes to Tokugawa Yoshimune on the side of the Japanese, he can be regarded as a first-rate or second-rate figure in the Tokugawa family.

Li Gan considered Japan's system and some of Tokugawa Yoshimune's reform policies, and admitted that Liu Yu was indeed a first- and second-rate figure, but in the end he could only circle around in that circle.

But it was such a first- and second-rate character in the old days who was beaten by a third- and fourth-rate character like Liu Yu, who was powerless to fight back, and was even forced to the point where he didn't know what to do.

Here are some problems.

Li Gan thought to himself, if the old people can't face and deal with the new things, they don't want to be able to "cure no diseases", if they don't even have the means to "cure minor diseases without serious problems", they will be at a loss when facing new things , overwhelmed...

Then this is no small matter.

Or, choose everything back to the old days.

Or, the imperial examinations, selections, scriptures, etc. must all be changed.

And the latter, unable to move.

Li Gan wanted to set up practical schools, but one was purely for the army, especially the navy.

The second is to solve the problem of good family sons before his death, so as to prevent future descendants from being incompetent, unable to balance or unable to suppress the group of good family sons, and eventually become a mass of cancer that cannot be cut off.It is necessary to broaden what a good family has learned, so as to contain and mix sand.

But he never thought of reforming the imperial examinations. Even when Dashun founded the country, the imperial examinations were held in Xi'an in a hurry, and the five tigers of Donglin presided over them.

Whoever takes the imperial examination will die, Li Gan still knows this in his heart.

Previously, Dashun changed the imperial examination once, which was a small-scale small-scale quarrel, in order to make it as fair as possible so that poor families can also enter the Tianzitang. Poor Xiao’s policy theory, etc., which can only be learned and learned, has been moved to after Jinshi. Previously, stereotyped writing with a fixed format and a chance for the poor to read a few books was reused.

As for the earlier ones, before the founding of Dashun and sweeping the world, it was established that the method of "good family sons and three houses" should be used to contain the dominance of the imperial examination family, and it may not be possible to avoid Wang Anshi's full use of the law of three houses after the reform and even party struggles. Due to the circumstances, such a wonderful dual-track system was separated.

But now, if it is said that new things must be dealt with by new people, or that old people can't cope with it at all, then this is a big problem.

Because this will break the balance of the court.

The old things in the past are those who come from the Wude Palace and the Imperial Examination Palace Examination, and they can deal with it.

To be a county magistrate, one who was born in the imperial examination can be a magistrate, and one who was born in Wude Palace can also be a magistrate, the difference is not big.

As a matter of course, those who were born in the imperial examination can be accepted, and those who were born in the Wude Palace can also be accepted.

No one is bound to anything, so the emperor can adjust in the middle, sit and watch the tigers fight, so as to maintain the situation, and don't have to worry about the dominance of one family.

But if new people can handle new things, and old people can't deal with new things at all, then the problem becomes that a group of people in the court and a group of people in the world are bound together.

That was much more terrifying than the party struggle in Song Dynasty.

In the Song Dynasty, party disputes were only within the court after all.The new party and the old party are still a group of people, but the line is different.

If it turns out to be the worst scenario that Li Gan envisioned, what is the dispute between the new party and the old party in Song Dynasty?

In the future, if there is a slight succession of incompetence, I am afraid that the world will be in chaos, the old and the new will fight, and the male and female will be determined. Whoever wins must let the other party die.

Not only the people in the court will die, but also the power they represent will also die.

At this time, although this sign is not very obvious, after Li Gan opened his eyes and looked at the outside world, he had already noticed it.This is the emperor's occupational disease, and it is also a unique occupational sensitivity. He vaguely feels that Liu Yu is not hiding anything, but has solved the problem before it happens, so that he cannot see the problem.

or……

Is it "curable"?
From the perspective of a doctor, there is a disease in the body, but the doctor Liu Yu always prescribes some pain-relieving ointment.It doesn't hurt after eating it, and it doesn't hurt after eating it all the time, so it doesn't seem to be sick.But the disease has not been cured. One day in the future, this disease will reach the level of "the disease is dying"?
Thinking of this, Li Gan called the eunuch and said, "Go and find the memorial for Jing Hou to set up a trading company and a sailor reserve service system."

Many of Liu Yu's memorials are quite intentional, and many copies are kept.A close-fitting eunuch can be as close as the emperor, of course, there are some means, and knowledge and knowledge are the most basic.

Soon, the letter was found from a large pile of preserved memorials.
