This censor can handle it, he really sprays when something happens

Chapter 171: Li Qing's Aspirations!Master Huixiu visits!Sima Yu retired!
Li Qing came all the way to the front hall of Qianyuan Hall.

Yang Ying, Sima Yan and others were all reviewing the memorial here, and when they heard footsteps, they all looked up.

Seeing that it was Li Qing, Sima Yan couldn't help laughing and said, "Did Your Majesty not attend class well today? I heard His Majesty's crying in the front hall."

"Changqing, are you reprimanding His Majesty again?"

Emperor Xiangfu was not serious about reading, which was known to Yang Ying and Sima Fen who were in charge of teaching him.

However, due to the status of the crown prince, neither of them could scold him too much, but Li Qing didn't care about this.

In the past month, Emperor Xiangfu has been scolded a lot.

"Your Majesty is really stubborn. I thought he would be the king's way, but he fell asleep for several days."

"So today I beat His Majesty's three rulers as a punishment. I hope he can listen to the class well."

Li Qing shook his head and said.

The lessons he taught for Emperor Xiangfu were actually not profound, but the simplest responsibilities and qualities that a ruler should have.

He didn't teach any sage classics or obscure articles, because they were not suitable for Emperor Xiangfu.

Teaching students should pay attention to teaching students according to their aptitude. Since Emperor Xiangfu didn't like reading, Li Qing didn't ask him to study diligently behind closed doors to learn something.

After all, the most important thing to be an emperor is not to be knowledgeable.

The most important thing is to have a sense of responsibility!
Take the country and the community as their own responsibility, care about the people's livelihood, know how to cherish the people, and distinguish right from wrong.

Only with these qualities can one be a good emperor and take on the important task of leading the whole country.

But even so, Emperor Xiangfu still didn't listen to his lecture seriously, even though he had already spoken very plainly.

So after repeated reprimands were useless, he resorted to corporal punishment, which he didn't want to do in the first place.

"You hit His Majesty?"

Yang Ying couldn't help being stunned when he heard the words, the brush in his hand was hanging in the air, which shows how surprised he was.

But apart from being surprised, he could also understand Li Qing, after all he knew about Emperor Xiangfu's stubbornness.

It is estimated that only people like Li Qing can control him. Otherwise, if he continues to indulge Emperor Xiangfu like this, he does not know what will happen in the future.

And if the emperor is unbearable, the whole country will be affected!And tens of thousands of Dazhou people!

"Don't worry, I'm measured."

Li Qing signaled Yang Ying not to worry too much, and then went forward to assist them in reviewing the memorial.

However, after only reading a few memorials, Li Qing's eyes froze, he picked up one of the memorials and looked at it carefully, and then showed a sneer.

"It wasn't long before the late emperor passed away, and some people in the court are eager to make a move. They can't wait to abolish the New Deal."

Li Qing threw the memorial in his hand aside.

He had already marked the word "No" on it with a Chinese ink pen, which looked particularly glaring.

This memorial is exactly a proposal to stop implementing the free school policy!

During Emperor Yuanfu's reign, the New Deal was enforced.

No one dares to oppose because of the iron and blood of the wrist.

But now that Emperor Yuanfu passed away unexpectedly, those people in the court felt that they had an opportunity and began to feel restless.

This memorial is a direct temptation!

In other words, those aristocratic families who were suppressed to death before now have the heart to make a comeback.

Sima Yan picked up the memorial and glanced at it, then looked at Li Qing and asked, "What do you think?"

"No way!"

Li Qing's answer was decisive, without any room for change, he said in a solemn voice: "The late emperor implemented a number of policies during his time, such as the whipping law, the young crop law, and education reform."

"These new policies have greatly increased the national strength of my Dazhou. It can be seen that the implementation of the new policies is completely correct and beneficial to the country and the people, but it only harms the interests of the aristocratic family."

"Although the late emperor is buried today, these new policies must continue, and Da Zhou cannot be reduced to being controlled by the aristocratic family again!"

On this point, Li Qing's attitude is very firm.

He was originally a supporter and implementer of the New Deal, which is why Emperor Yuanfu entrusted the country to him.

Hearing Li Qing's answer, Sima Man couldn't help but worry and said, "Although this is the case, the resistance is likely to be great."

"After all, you are just a minister who cares about orders. If you ignore the wishes of the ministers and forcefully make arbitrary decisions, you may be called a minister of power."

"When the time comes, your clear name..."

Li Qing's fame is certainly his advantage, but at the same time it will also bring him great restrictions, like a shackle.

Now those who oppose the new policy have already taken action. If Li Qing insists on going his own way and arbitrarily arbitrarily ruling the government, he will definitely be scolded as a powerful minister.

At that time, the reputation that was so hard to raise will be ruined.

"It's just a false name, when did I care?"

"If they want to scold, let them scold."

Li Qing said calmly, he didn't care about these details at all, or he didn't pay attention to them.

He has the supreme authority granted by Emperor Yuanfu, no matter how fiercely he is scolded, no one can shake his position.

And as long as he is still in his position for a day, he will implement the New Deal even if the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty oppose it.

What's more, there are already a considerable proportion of officials from poor backgrounds in the court, and he is not alone, fighting alone.

So what if he is scolded as a minister of power, what he has done is worthy of the country, the people of Zhou, and the righteous way in his heart.

That's enough.

Yang Ying couldn't help showing admiration on his face when he heard this.

Before Emperor Yuanfu entrusted Gu to Li Qing on his deathbed, he was somewhat dissatisfied in his heart.

But now he realizes that Emperor Yuanfu made the most wise choice of entrusting the country to Li Qing to govern.

"Perhaps only a person like him can do the right thing knowing that there are countless difficulties and obstacles."

Yang Ying thought to himself, he asked himself that he couldn't do it.

After all, he was born in a powerful family. Even though he knew the benefits of the New Deal, he might choose to compromise in the end when faced with heavy pressure.

The three of them didn't speak any more for the rest of the time, they just quietly reviewed the memorial and occasionally communicated with each other.

After dark, they had dinner in the palace, and then they left Qianyuan Hall and went home separately.

Yang Ying took a step ahead, while Sima Jun and Li Qing took their time, chatting while walking.

"It's really boring to review memorials every day."

"Being an emperor is really not easy."

"I really don't know why everyone in the world yearns for this position, and is willing to be imprisoned in this cage."

Looking at the sunset glow in the sky, Li Qing sighed.

Countless people set off one bloody storm after another for the throne, but now he is acting as the emperor's power, but he doesn't think there is any good in this power.

It just feels very heavy and depressing.

Sima Yan smiled and said, "When has desire been satisfied?"

"Ordinary people want to study and become an official, and after becoming an official, they want to live in an official position. After being a real official, they want to be famous forever, and even have a heart of disobedience."

"And even if you become the emperor in the end and want to rule the world, people will never be too little about power."

Li Qing glanced at Sima Yan with some surprise.

Such disrespectful words are not like what the cautious old prime minister would say.

"Don't look at the old man like that, the old man is just talking from the heart, what kind of eyes are you looking at?"

Sima Yan scolded with a smile, Li Qing looked away.

But at this time, he suddenly heard Sima Yan say: "In a few days, the old man is going to ask His Majesty to resign and return to his hometown."

"what?"

Li Qing stopped in his tracks, looked up at Sima Yan in astonishment, and couldn't help but ask, "Why did the Prime Minister say that?"

Sima Yu has been the prime minister for more than ten years.

Now he has just been appointed as one of the three auxiliary ministers by Emperor Yuanfu. Although his power is not as powerful as Li Qing, it is unmatched by all the officials in the court.

And at this time, he actually said he was going to retire?
"Nothing, just lack of energy."

Sima Yan was a little downcast, waved his hands, and sighed: "This old man is over seventy years old this year, and he has lost his fighting spirit long ago."

"Actually, back when that old guy Zhu Jiuyuan resigned, I had this idea, but I never had the chance to say it."

"Now that you and Yang Ying are in the court, it doesn't make much difference whether there is an old man, so I don't want to stay anymore."

Sima Yu expressed his thoughts.

Although practicing Confucianism and Taoism made him healthier and mentally better, it couldn't change the exhaustion in his heart.

Just like what Li Qing said, the imperial palace and court hall are both a stage and a cage, which can allow talented and ambitious people to show off their fists, and also trap people in it.

He has been trapped for decades, so he doesn't want to waste any more time, and wants to do some things of his own when he gets home.

For example, studying knowledge, such as teaching the younger generations in the clan, are more meaningful than staying in the court.

After speaking, Sima Yan smiled and asked Li Qing: "You don't blame the old man for giving up the pick at a critical moment, do you?"

Now the DPRK and China are employing people.

It is actually a very irresponsible behavior for a dignified auxiliary minister to resign suddenly.

But he also had some considerations in doing so.

One is to retreat bravely for his own sake; the other is to make room for Li Qing to flex his fists.

After all, the purpose of setting up the three auxiliary ministers was to check and balance each other, and if he withdrew, Yang Ying would not be able to compare with Li Qing's power.

It will be easier for Li Qing to act in the future.

Li Qing's eyes flickered after hearing this, and after thinking for a long time, he slowly said: "Since the prime minister has made up his mind, then I won't say any more."

Sima Yan stretched out his hand and patted Li Qing's shoulder, and said, "The burden of Da Zhou will be handed over to you in the future."

"The old man's Hui family also has the idea of ​​​​changing the atmosphere in the family, and the Sima family also needs to change from the inside."

After Sima Man finished speaking, he rolled up his sleeves and left.

After Li Qing stood there for a while, he also walked towards the outside of the palace. After leaving the palace, he went straight home with his sword.

Yu Jian was in the sky, and a strong wind with a little chill came blowing towards his face, but they were completely isolated by the awe-inspiring righteousness circulating in Li Qing's body, and his robes were not even blown.

Overlooking the entire Shengjing city from a high altitude, the feeling of being restrained in Li Qing's heart became more and more intense.

In fact, he also wanted to let go of his responsibilities like Sima Yan, and leave Shengjing to do what he wanted to do.

For example, travel around the world and spread Confucianism and Taoism.

Be prepared for what Lu Chengxun said is that the power of Buddhism will come to the world to snatch the luck of the human race.

But Emperor Yuanfu passed away suddenly, and the burden of the entire Zhou Kingdom was handed over to him, and he had to take responsibility.

"That's all."

Li Qing shook his head, he didn't want to think about these things anymore, what he had to think about now was how to educate the young Xiangfu Emperor well and train him to be a qualified monarch.

And when he thought of this, Li Qing had a headache.

Compared with Emperor Xiangfu, Ao Xue is extremely obedient, the former is completely lazy.

Bear kids are just as annoying no matter what era they are.

Li Qing returned home while thinking.

Ao Xue greeted him immediately, pulled his sleeve and said: "Teacher, a monk came to the house, and he said he was your student, really?"

"My student? Or a monk?"

Li Qing was taken aback when he heard the words, why didn't he remember that he accepted a monk as a student?When did this happen?
Li Qing asked, "Where is he?"

Ao Xue pointed to the yard and said, "I asked him to wait in the lobby. This monk is very stubborn, so he must stand in the yard and wait for you, teacher, to come back."

Hearing this, Li Qing raised his feet and walked towards the yard.

I saw a young monk with a handsome face and a gentle temperament standing under the plum tree in the yard.

"Huixiu?"

Li Qing recognized the identity of this young monk at a glance, it was Master Huixiu whom he hadn't seen for a long time!

Since the last time Li Qing discussed with Buddhism to destroy the luck of Buddhism, Master Huixiu directly worshiped him, and Da Zhou also started a vigorous campaign to destroy Buddhism.

And a group of monks who converted to Mahayana Buddhism headed by Master Huixiu, after completing the conversion of Buddhist temples in Dazhou, went to various countries to spread Mahayana Buddhism.

After all, they hadn't seen each other for several years.

Master Huixiu also saw Li Qing, so he stepped forward and bowed deeply: "Student Huixiu, I have met the teacher."

His voice was full of unstoppable joy.

"Huixiu? It's actually you."

Li Qing took the Qinglian Sword back to the Palace of Literature, and said in surprise.

He thought that Huixiu had gone to travel around other countries to spread Mahayana Buddhism, so why did he suddenly come to him today.

However, Li Qing was very happy to see his old friend.

After pulling Huixiu to sit on the stone bench in the yard, Li Qing asked Ao Xue to make a pot of tea, and then smiled at Master Huixiu: "I just said that I have a monk student, but I didn't expect it to be you."

"Speaking of which, haven't you traveled to other countries? How is Mahayana Buddhism spreading?"

Hearing Li Qing's words, Master Huixiu felt a little ashamed, put his hands together, bowed his head and said: "The students have failed the teacher's expectations. Over the past few years, they have not transformed more than [-] temples, and have not thoroughly promoted Mahayana Buddhism."

"But the students have heard a lot about the teacher's deeds, and they are deeply admired every time they think about it."

"If the teacher went to various countries to promote Mahayana Buddhism in person, it is estimated that he has already crossed the world."

Master Huixiu made no secret of his admiration for Li Qing.

After all, in his opinion, Li Qing is almost a sage-like figure, and even the creator of Mahayana Buddhism.

Strictly speaking, it is of the same nature as the creation of Confucianism.

After all, Hinayana Buddhism is completely different from Mahayana Buddhism, and the latter is the real Buddhist way.
