Chapter 21 Summer Insects Can't Talk About Ice

The moment Chen Ying heard this name, he thought of Kong Yingda, one of the Eighteen Scholars of the Qin Palace.The old master was very aggressive, citing scriptures and sarcasm, pointing at Chen Ying's nose and yelling: "Little man..."

Chen Ying smiled lightly, with that expression on his face all the time.

Li Jiancheng nodded approvingly, and secretly thought that Chen Ying was well-bred, and the city was extremely deep.

However, Chen Ying didn't understand what Kong Yingda said at all.

If Li Jiancheng knew that Chen Ying was the reason, he might really be surprised.

People in this era, no matter whether they are arguing or discussing, even if they have political disagreements, they are not like shrews cursing the streets, calling names and cursing.However, Kong Yingda really wasted expression, because Chen Ying didn't understand many meanings.

All the ministers understood, but it was difficult to say anything in front of Li Yuan.

Li Jiancheng was in a hurry. Could Kong Yingda's verbal attack on Chen Ying be a signal from Li Yuan?
Sure enough, Li Yuan looked calm.The more Kong Yingda talked, the more vigorous he became. After a long speech, Kong Yingda sighed bitterly: "Chen Concubine is wrong. Virtue is the basis of Taoism, and etiquette is the foundation of politics. Abandoning morality is like a shoe. almost peaceful?"

"It's definitely not the best strategy to talk about profit. It's not prudent to walk on the frost and ice." Dr. Guanglu, Tong Zhongshumen, Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs Xiao Yu bowed and said: "The old minister seconded Dr. Kong!"

"A gentleman means justice, and a villain means profit. Wherever His Majesty's edict comes, there is no way to follow. The scholars of the world return to their hearts and sincerely obey His Majesty. Is it just to eat the fortune of the Tang Dynasty?" Chen Shuda also vowed: "They have the right The loyalty of the imperial court came here for righteousness..."

"If it is beneficial to the country, why should we cherish the name after death!" Shang Shu Zuo Pu shot Pei Ji said.

Chen Ying finally figured it out, no matter how dull he was, he knew that these ministers were targeting him.Of course, what Chen Ying didn't know was that because of Chen Ying's indiscretions, the status of craftsmen was raised too high.In the eyes of these ministers, scholars are the heads of the four peoples, and scholars are the heads of the four peoples, and farmers, businessmen, and scholars should not be rude to scholars.To be rude is to have no one in your heart.

But what about Chen Ying?It is not just for humble craftsmen to be named and respected as masters, but to be called masters only if they have made absolute achievements in one aspect.

Zheng Xuan is good at the classics, known as a master of Confucian classics.

A blacksmith is called everyone, and they can't see it.

All the ministers criticized Chen Ying one after another. Li Jiancheng tried to rescue Chen Ying several times, but Li Yuan stopped him with his eyes.However, this scene fell into the eyes of all the officials. All the officials thought that Li Yuan was agreeing with Kong Yingda's proposition, so they aimed at Chen Ying more violently.

Kong Yingda continued: "Your Majesty has brought order out of the chaos, and finally saw some hope for a peaceful and prosperous world. If, as Chen Yuma said, everyone pursues profit and does not know loyalty, this is the great misfortune of the country. I beg your majesty to make a decision!"

Kong Yingda's ability to cover a big hat is really not a cover.From a small matter, it extended to the righteousness of the country, and the blame was placed on Li Yuan.

No matter how unresponsive Chen Ying was, he knew that Kong Yingda must not be allowed to continue talking.

Chen Ying retorted: "If we use Dr. Kong's words and talk about Taoism and scriptures, when the Turkic army breaks through and comes, can the scholars recite scriptures to defeat the enemy?"

Hearing Chen Ying's words, Li Jiancheng almost laughed out loud.

Reciting the scriptures to defeat the enemy is not to let them learn alchemists and turn beans into soldiers.

Kong Yingda was about to refute, but he heard that Chen Ying simply gave him this opportunity to speak, and said directly: "Tai Shigong said: the granary knows the etiquette, and the food and clothing are sufficient to know the honor and disgrace. Rituals are born in what is and discarded in nothing, so a gentleman is rich." , like to practice his virtues; the small man is rich, so that he can adapt his strength. The abyss is deep and the fish are born, the mountains are deep and the beasts go to them, the man is rich and benevolence and righteousness are attached. Yi Di is more beneficial if he is not happy with it. As the saying goes: "The son of a thousand pieces of gold will not die in the market. "This is not empty talk. Therefore, it is said: The prosperity of the world is for profit; The householders are almost..."

Quoting classics, only you, Confucius, can do it?

Chen Ying was born in the era of information explosion, and the information he learned through various media surpassed Kong Yingda by tens of thousands of times. No matter how smart Kong Yingda was, he could not deny what Sima Qian said.

Kong Yingda was about to open his mouth to refute Chen Ying, when Chen Ying suddenly walked up to Kong Yingda and said, "Dr. Kong, how many servants are there in your family? If you just teach them scriptures and morals, will they not pay?"

Kong Yingda said: "A gentleman does not compete with a villain for profit!"

Chen Ying pretended to be enlightened and said: "It turns out that a gentleman does not love money, can it be understood in this way?"

"A gentleman loves money, and he gets it in a proper way!" Kong Yingda's eyes were about to burst into flames.

Chen Ying didn't have a fixed pattern of speech, he talked a lot and talked a lot.

However, Chen Ying looked at the ministers in front of him and said, "You are all worthy gentlemen!"

"Of course!" Kong Yingda said.

Chen Ying turned to look at Xiao Yu and said: "Xiao Shangshu, you are in charge of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, so you should be clear about the treasury of the Tang Dynasty, right? Due to successive years of wars, billions of trillions of military resources have been wasted. If you don't love money, don't be ashamed to Benefits, I am ashamed to talk about benefits, so are you donating your salaries to relieve the urgent needs of the court? Your Majesty, I have a fund, and I feel that the treasury is empty every day, and I am anxious about the urgent needs of the court. I am willing to donate ten years of salaries to fill the state capital."

Chen Ying is now a general of the second-rank town army and enjoys the treatment of the second-rank. According to the salary of the Tang Dynasty, Chen Ying should have a salary of 72 guan, a salary of 470 shi, a land of 180 mu, and a servant money of 180 guan. Added together, it is about 350 guan, which is equivalent to about 130 million after discounting the money of future generations.The ten-year salary is actually not three thousand five hundred.To Chen Ying, this amount of money is really a small amount of money.

Chen Ying's method is actually very simple. Don't you tell yourself that you are a gentleman, and you are ashamed of your words?All the princes in the court are gentlemen, so shouldn't a gentleman give generously?
To be generous, let's all come together.

The Sui and Tang dynasties were the period when the imperial examination was launched. Before that, the officials were mainly famous families and scholar-bureaucrats. These people had fiefs and property.Being an official is an obligation, and the salary given by the state is relative to the property they own.Very little, so salary doesn't matter to them.

After the Sui and Tang Dynasties, poor families could also become officials, and being an official became the way for scholars to survive and make a fortune. For this reason, the imperial court also greatly increased the treatment of officials to ensure that officials could work with peace of mind and not have to work hard for their livelihood.The salaries of officials in the Tang Dynasty were indeed not high, basically equivalent to one-tenth of those in the Song Dynasty.However, not all the officials in the imperial court are descendants of aristocratic clans, there are also poor ones.

If during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, they still donated their salaries, even the officials of Wanshi, their salaries were actually not high. During the Zhenguan period, the price of rice was five cents a bucket.Ten buckets are one stone, and ten thousand stones are equivalent to about five hundred guan.But officials with [-] stones like county magistrates only have about [-] guan salaries.

The princes of the Manchu Dynasty didn't care.After all, all the ministers present were nobles. When Pei Ji saw Chen Ying's statement, he was not far behind, and said directly: "The veteran is willing to donate one year's salary to relieve the court's urgent needs."

Yuwen Shiji, Yang Gongren and others hurriedly expressed their views.

However, at this moment, Li Yuan was furious.

Because of the debate, the painting style suddenly changed.It turned into a dispute between righteousness and benefit, and Chen Ying's proposal to create Tang Wenxun officials was unintentionally biased.

Are all readers good?

Li Yuan is not a flower in a greenhouse, so it is natural to know that now is the time when the weather is getting worse and people's hearts are not old, especially the so-called scholars, they are all mothers if they have milk, empty words, talk about morality, and only know that they can't get tired of eating Fine, not tired of detail, but forgetting the original intention of the saint, and saying that if you don't have fun today, when will you wait.

How can there be any appearance of taking the world as one's own responsibility?Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty rewarded Confucianism, advocated integrity, worked hard, and finally saw a little hope for a peaceful and prosperous world. Who would have thought that these scholars would be corrupted first.

Chen Ying brought Kong Yingda into the ditch. At this time, when the ministers expressed their views, he had already reacted.But it was too late.Kong Yingda laughed, but there was no trace of a smile on his face, instead there was a bit more sarcasm. "Chen Consort, with his lips as a knife and his tongue as a spear, his majesty is unbearable!"

Chen Ying didn't have any embarrassment, and said with a faint smile: "Dr. Kong, you should be lucky!"

"What are you lucky about?" Kong Yingda asked inexplicably.

Li Yuan suddenly realized, and then remembered that Chen Ying had scolded Lu Jilan to death for this episode. At this time, Yang Gongren, who was standing beside Kong Yingda, told Kong Yingda about Chen Ying's glorious record. Kong Yingda was embarrassed for a while, and talked about him. "Summer insects are indescribable."
