Jinyi champion

Wenhua Hall.

A daily lecture is being prepared.

There are five lecturers in the Hanlin Academy. The main lecturer is the Hanlin scholar Shi Ping, the second lecturer is Wen Renhe and Mu Konghui, and the last is the Hanlin Xiuzhuan Zhu Hao and Yu Chengxun.

The ages of these people, except for Zhu Hao, who is regarded as the "young lecturer" that Zhu Si called for, the rest of them seem to have nothing to do with youth.

Yu Chengxun is relatively young, but he is already in his thirties, Wen Renhe and Mu Konghui are in their forties, and Shi Ting is nearly sixty...

Zhu Hao couldn't think of any difference between this lineup of lecturers and the previous lineup of daily lectures. Perhaps the only difference was that he, the absolute confidant of the new emperor, appeared on the scene by mistake.

Daily lectures should also be based on seniority.

Shi Pang, the oldest, went first.

It is about the rites and music of "Spring and Autumn".

Normally, Zhu Si would be drowsy early on, but this time he tried his best, because he was looking forward to Zhu Hao's appearance, and even wanted to call Zhu Hao aside during the break between the Japanese lectures, and have a discussion, talk What is not important, the main thing is to open this new mode of dialogue between monarchs and ministers.

In the future, Zhu Si would have more opportunities to call Zhu Hao, and the two of them could discuss important matters without having to go outside the palace or send messages through others.

Just when Shi Jue finished speaking and Wen Renhe was about to come out to continue speaking, Zhu Si stretched out his hand to stop him.

"It's boring to listen to these things. Originally, after the summer, the lectures on the feast day should be stopped, but I think I should learn more common sense in life, and I want to know what happened outside the palace...Who will tell you?"

Zhu Si was tantamount to giving questions to several Japanese lecturers.

As a former Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Shi Jing has been demoted to become a Hanlin Bachelor, but as a loyal supporter of Yang Tinghe faction, he is already a popular candidate to join the cabinet, and his future seems to be better than Liu Chun. Come out, stand up and continue to perform.

But Shi Yu didn't know what the emperor was going to do.

After talking on the banquet day, what to say is discussed repeatedly, how can you just open the topic randomly?

Zhang Zuo, the eunuch who served the supervisor of ceremonies and listened to the daily lecture together, smiled and said: "Scholars, you can just talk about what your majesty means. It doesn't matter what the content is, as long as it is beneficial to your majesty's governance of the government, even if it is just a penny in the market. Useful, you can take it out and talk about it.”

Wen Renhe was very cautious, he came out and said, "Your Majesty, it's so inappropriate."

Zhu Sidao: "It's already past the season of daily lectures. What I want you to talk about is not the classics, righteousness, etiquette, etc. I am tired of hearing these, and I will always have the opportunity to learn again... Don't you have something new to say? Listen to me?"

As he said that, Zhu Si's eyes were already on Zhu Hao and Yu Chengxun.

Yu Chengxun gave Zhu Hao a push, probably meaning that it's your turn to repay Duke Yang's trust, come on!

Zhu Hao turned his head and glared at Yu Chengxun, as if to say, why don't you go up?

The two of them stared at each other unexpectedly, and they just met each other.

"The last two, Zhu Hanlin and Yu Hanlin, I know you... I want to hear the opinions of the young Hanlin, so that I can understand the philosophy of governing the country you uphold. Don't you plan to stand up and tell me? Good or bad, You can say anything." Zhu Si said.

Yu Chengxun was very embarrassed and didn't know what to say. …

Zhu Hao shook his head with a wry smile, walked out from the group of people, and arrived at the Japanese desk.

Seeing Zhu Hao approaching, Zhu Si couldn't help smiling.

He is too familiar with this feeling. When he was in Xingwang Mansion, Zhu Hao taught him like this every day, and what he talked about was all over the world, involving history, science, humanities, folk customs, etc. Listening to Zhu Hao's lectures was like listening to stories. , It always makes people feel fresh and interesting, and absorbs knowledge unconsciously.

Zhu Si suddenly felt as if he missed his life in Xingwang Mansion, at least at that time he was carefree, except for looking forward to Zhu Hao talking about novel and interesting things, he was looking forward to playing after class.

How is it now?

Every day I keep thinking about how to intrigue.

"Zhu Hanlin, what are you going to say today? If you speak well, I will reward you a lot!" Zhu Si said.

Zhu Hao held Yang Shen in his hand and gave him permission

prepared lectures.

The first part of the speech is about "ruling the country with benevolence and filial piety", which is to use historical examples to criticize Zhu Si's misdeeds of disobedience to the law, and to criticize the little emperor.

The second part is to preach "Buddha's gatha", that is, a poem praising Buddhism. Zhu Hao needs to explain in detail the specific content of the seven Buddha gatha stele written by Huang Tingjian in the Northern Song Dynasty on Mount Lu.

If the emperor is dissatisfied, there are still a bunch of them behind, but none of them are related to Confucian classics.

Zhu Hao can see that Yang Shen is not only cheating him, but also using him as a spearhead to point directly at the new emperor. This time, he and Zhu Si will probably provoke criticism from civil officials. The monarch and his ministers were brought together in one pot.

"Your Majesty, I do have some ideas about governing the country. I don't know whether they are right or wrong."

Zhu Hao closed the lecture in front of him, and looked at Zhu Si.

Zhu Si's eyes lit up, he raised his hand, made a "please" gesture, and said, "But it's okay to say."

Zhang Zuo happily looked at Zhu Hao, feeling that he was very familiar with it. It is rare that monarchs and ministers finally have another way to meet in court. This is probably the first step for His Majesty to seize power... Zhang Zuo began to look forward to Zhu Hao assisting Zhu Sicheng as soon as possible great cause.

Zhu Haodao: "I would like to ask Your Majesty, what is the most important thing to maintain the stability of Ming Dynasty?"

"Jingdao, pay attention to your daily speaking style!"

Shi Ping next to him frowned and couldn't help but remind him.

Shi Jue knew very well that Zhu Hao was a junior that Liu Chun admired. This time Zhu Hao was able to speak in Japan, mainly thanks to Liu Chun's recommendation. Although he and Liu Chun had a competitive relationship in entering the cabinet, they still had a certain friendship. , he didn't want Zhu Hao to say something that was too deviant.

But Zhu Hao knew very well in his heart that the actual situation was not like this, if only Liu Chun recommended without Yang Tinghe's approval, everything would be useless.

Zhu Sidao: "Scholar Shi, you don't have to worry about it. I think this kind of discussion is still necessary... This is stability. The most important thing is of course the harmony between the monarch and his ministers, and the prosperity of the people. If there is God's blessing, the weather in the world will be smooth, and the court will naturally be stable. down."

But Zhu Hao shook his head: "I don't think so. I think that the stability of Daming lies first in... having money."

"puff……"

Several people present were listening intently to Zhu Hao's great insights, but they almost didn't spit out when they heard the words.

This way of speaking was unheard of for them.

In daily lectures, when talking about such vulgar content as "rich", how can a gentleman talk about money all the time? …

It's simply degrading!

Originally, Yu Chengxun felt that Zhu Hao didn't follow the lecture notes, and was annoyed that the kid was disobedient, but after hearing this statement, he was immediately happy. Obviously he felt that what Zhu Hao said would hurt the little emperor even more.

"Having money? Is there money? Is this...too one-sided? Can money solve all problems?" Zhu Si seemed very dissatisfied with Zhu Hao's answer.

Zhu Haodao: "The words of a family may not be accepted, but this is what my ministers think. With money, the court can buy food, grass and supplies, and the people have money, and life can be stable...Of course, with money, a lot of goods have to be produced , for distribution, so that the world can be stabilized.”

Zhu Hao's words sound reasonable, but they are actually nonsense.

This is not a daily talk, but making fun of the emperor.

Any emperor in the past would definitely drive Zhu Hao out of the palace. In the future, he might have no chance of being an official in the court, and he would be assigned to a local area, or he would be ordered to retire directly.

What the hell are you talking about?

Even Wen Renhe, Mu Konghui and the others looked at Zhu Hao with the look of "you are finished", probably thinking that Zhu Hao would not only lose face in front of the emperor, but also lose his reputation among literati.

"Even if you're right."

Zhu Si pondered for a while, then shook his head and sighed softly, "But I think that money is not omnipotent. There are thieves and bandits in the northwest border who plunder the people of Ming Dynasty. Can money solve such troubles? There are pirates in the southeast, but even if they take the sea It will take time for the defense station to pay and supplies, and it will take time to calm down. Aren’t the local people still unsettled? Your intentions are not very good.”

Zhu Si seemed to be arguing with Zhu Hao.

Zhu Haodao: "It is true that the front is not omnipotent, but it is the foundation of the peace of the world. Pirates have money, and they will not think of taking the risk of beheading and invading our Daming sea. If they don’t have supplies, they won’t risk their lives to invade my territory, and the frontier soldiers will have the motivation to serve the court when they have money…”

"enough!"

Shi Yan couldn't listen any longer, so he interrupted Zhu Hao directly, "Zhu Jingdao, what crooked theory are you talking about? A gentleman means righteousness, and a villain means profit. If you even serve the court, it has to be related to money. It doesn't matter, may I ask where did you read your book?"

Zhu Hao didn't expect Shi Pang to be so excited.

He looked back at Yu Chengxun. Yu Chengxun was covering his mouth and snickering, but he was still encouraging Zhu Hao to continue talking.

Zhu Haodao: "Scholar Shi, it's better to be realistic. I said it in advance. This is just a family story, something that can make people think. If the world is full of gentlemen and no villains, then who are you going to listen to?" what about?"

"you……"

Shi Jue didn't expect that Zhu Hao would dare to argue with him directly besides deviant!
You kid, do you have the concept of superiors and elders?

Do you have respect for your predecessors and teachers?

After all, this old man was the chief examiner of your exam, and your teacher... Wait, this kid seems to have never visited me, and he doesn't take me seriously at all.

Zhu Siyi patted his thigh: "Zhu Hanlin's words sound much more reasonable than the previous mention of money and wealth. People always have to be realistic. Although only villains refer to profit, there are too many villains in the world. Well, even if they are gentlemen in the court, if the court doesn’t give them salaries, they still have to protest, don’t they? Before people can be righteous, they must first fill their stomachs!”

Shi Pang really wanted to hit someone.

What is this pair of monarchs and ministers talking about?
Is this taking Confucian classics as a joke?
Zhu Haodao: "Your Majesty's words are very true, and I also believe that there are still many villains in this world, so if you want to make villains stable, you must coerce and lure them. From the legalist point of view, that is, rewards and punishments are clearly defined. It is built on the basis of having money. If the court has no money, who would be willing to sacrifice their lives for His Majesty?"
