The legend of the king of crossing

Chapter 283 Love the People

Lu Xiufu, who is calm by nature and unsmiling, has changed quite a bit compared to when I first met him. He seems to be much more cheerful. Lu Xiufu smiled and asked: "Mr. Chen, you are a senior from my rank as a Jinshi, and you can be regarded as a senior who is a low-level official. What do you think?" Tell me, which one is better, the title of the official or the next official?"

"My lord, I'm a scholar, I don't know how to tell lies, so I'll tell the truth. Just now when I heard my lord call himself 'Xiaguan', Chen suddenly felt an inexplicable joy in his heart. A certain Chen thought that my lord Claiming to be a lower official seems peaceful and easy to get along with, while calling yourself 'this official' gives people a sense of superiority. Just based on this self-proclaimed lord, Chen feels that Master Lu is a good official. This is what I say from the bottom of my heart , " Having said that, Chen Zhengren looked around and said, "I don't know, I don't know how the other colleagues feel,"

"Old Chen's words are very true, we all feel kind, Mr. Lu is very good,"

"That's right, Mr. Lu is a modest gentleman, at first glance he is an honest gentleman,"

"Good sir,"

Although there is only one word difference between the lower official and the current official, the meanings of the representatives are completely different. One is modest and polite, while the other is superior.

Lu Xiufu reached out his hand to signal, and after everyone was quiet, he said: "Everyone, I am deeply favored by the emperor. I often serve the emperor, and I also get a lot of teachings from the emperor. The emperor always mentioned that the king is the lightest thing, and the people are the most important. The so-called water Can carry a boat, but also capsize it. As an official of His Majesty the Emperor, he should serve the Emperor at the top and the common people at the bottom. An official must first regard himself as a member of the people of our court, and should not regard himself as a member of the people. I regard myself as a master who is above the common people,"

As Lu Xiufu's speech paused, applause broke out in the venue. This spontaneous applause represented that Lu Xiufu's speech was fully recognized by the people present.

Lu Xiufu had no choice but to stretch out his hands again, motioning for everyone to be quiet, and then continued: "Everyone in the newspaper industry, the current emperor is wise and martial, diligent in government and loving the people, and he is actually the emperor of Zhongxing in our dynasty. I call myself a lower official. After following the teachings of the emperor to love the people, I should always remember that I am a minister of your majesty, an official of our Great Song Dynasty, and the one who makes decisions for the people of our dynasty, and moreover,,,,,,, "

This time, before Lu Xiufu could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a burst of more intense applause.

What I didn't expect was that two days later, the headlines of the major newspapers in Lin'an City were not the detailed report on Anfeng's victory, but the conversation between Lu Xiufu and Chen Zhengren who claimed to be a subordinate. Xiufu's words and deeds represent the emperor's thought of being close to the people and loving the people, and the determination of the imperial court to reform. With the help of this Anfeng victory, my reputation has been pushed to a new height.

Lu Xiufu had no choice but to reach out his hand again, and after the venue was quiet, he continued: "The current emperor's sage is comparable to Taizu Taizong. This is the blessing of our dynasty and the blessing of the people."

"Long live the emperor, long live the emperor,"

Suddenly, bursts of cheers rang out in the hall, and the voice of "Long live the emperor" lasted for a long time. The people who reported the news were already quite sensitive to current affairs. Compared with ordinary people, their thinking was more active and radical. It is also easier to accept Lu Xiufu's words and deeds of being close to the people.

After a long time, the venue became quiet again, only to hear Lu Xiufu say: "Everyone, back to the theme of today's press conference, please ask questions about the Battle of Anfeng. Due to time constraints, each newspaper can only ask three questions at most."

Perhaps it was Chen Zhengren who made a good start. Everyone felt that this Lu Daman from the Military Academy was approachable, so they all enthusiastically spoke up and asked questions.

"Lord Lu, I am Huang Yong, the editor of the Royal Newspaper of the Great Song Dynasty. First of all, I would like to congratulate the imperial court on the great victory of Anfeng and regaining the land on the south bank of the Huaihe River. As a Song person, I am also proud and proud. What our army defeated was It is the Mongolian iron cavalry known as the invincible in the world, and this is the first active attack launched by our court in recent years. I would like to ask Lord Xialu, whether this battle of Anfeng can be said to be the imperial court’s determination to regain the country.”

Lu Xiufu said: "Editor Huang, since the emperor ascended the throne, he has made a national policy of recovering the country. It can be said that from the moment the emperor ascended the throne, the emperor has sworn to the world that he must recover the northern kingdom, and this time the battle of Anfeng It's just the beginning of the whole plan,"

Huang Yong continued to ask: "Lord Lu, the recent continuous military reforms in our dynasty, such as the reform of the Forbidden Army, the establishment of new theaters, etc., are they all preparing for the recovery of the country?"

"It can be said that, but I believe that it is more accurate that the purpose of these changes is to make our dynasty's military more regular and powerful. Recovering the lost mountains and rivers is only the most basic and necessary national policy. The emperor means It is to let me stand on top of the world, whether it is economics, technology, military, or other aspects, it must be like this,"

"Master Lu, this is Han Yunshan, the editor of Fuhua Daily. I just heard what Master Lu said about economy, technology and military. May I ask what technology Master Lu is referring to?"

Lu Xiufu explained: "Science and technology, that is, science and technology, is a general term for science and technology. Science is the knowledge system about nature, society and thinking that we humans have accumulated. Technology refers to personal skills or skills. For example, Editor Han, the hard pen and paper you are currently using are brought about by technological innovation. In ancient times, people used bamboo slips and writing brushes, and the tools you are using are undoubtedly much more convenient. Another example is the Great Bulletin Okay Mr. Chen, did the magnifying glass you brought with you last time help you a lot when reading?"

Chen Zhengren nodded and said, "Yes, this is indeed a good thing."

"Well, this is the change science and technology has brought to mankind. With the development of science and technology, it will bring more and more benefits to mankind. It can be said that the rapid development of science and technology in the future will completely change human life. However, science and technology The matter is not our topic today, nor is it the strength of the lower officials. If there is an opportunity in another day, everyone can go to Lin'an University for interviews."

I laughed secretly, "This Lu Xiufu, he's pretty good at learning."

"Lord Lu, this is Jiang Xiaotian, the editor of Lin'an Phoenix Newspaper. May I ask Master Lu, is our current military strength surpassing that of Mongolia?"

"Hehe," Lu Xiufu said with a smile, "I said at the beginning that some things involve our court's military secrets. It is not convenient for me to answer, but I can tell you seriously that under the wise leadership of His Majesty, we will The comprehensive military strength of the DPRK must be invincible in the world.”

Seeing that Lu Xiufu didn't answer directly, Jiang Xiaotian was a little disappointed, but then said: "I believe in Master Lu's words, my dynasty's military strength is invincible in the world, so I can rest assured as a member of the Great Song Dynasty."

"My lord, Lord Lu has become eloquent now," Yuan Ji whispered next to my ear.

"Well, Junshi has made great progress on this point,"

At this time, Fang Shanjing, the emcee of the press conference, stepped forward and said: "Everyone, due to time constraints, the press conference of the Military Affairs Council has come to an end, and there is one more thing that is related to everyone. Director Yu) Zeng Yuanzi announced to everyone the imperial court’s regulations on newspapers,”

Zeng Yuanzi is in his forties, with a long beard, and looks quite official: "Dear newspaper editors, on behalf of the Publishing Department, this official announces that starting from December [-]st, all newspapers will be required to register with the Ministry of Commerce. , you also need to file with the Publishing Department, and the Publishing Department will issue you a newspaper business license. This regulation is not only for the major newspapers in our country, but also for other small newspapers. After the Ministry of Publication and the Publishing Department register and record at the same time, they can be published publicly and are protected by our court’s laws, in line with our dynasty’s publishing regulations.”

"The tabloids are fine too,"

"Has the court stopped banning tabloids?"

,,,,,.

"Quiet, quiet," Fang Shanjing stepped forward and said with a smile, "Everyone, I would like to invite the new minister Jiang Wanlijiang from the Ministry of Education and Health to clear up your doubts."

Jiang Wanli first said: "Everyone, in accordance with His Majesty's will, as long as all newspapers abide by the laws of our dynasty, there will be no distinction between large and small newspapers in the future, and they can go to the Publishing Department to apply for a license. However, the content reported by the relevant newspapers , must be true, under the premise of abiding by the laws of our dynasty, it will naturally be protected by the court, but if the report violates the laws of our dynasty, makes up random things, or promotes remarks that are not conducive to our dynasty, or even maliciously slander us North Korea, it is bound to be punished by the law, "

Chen Zhengren, who was in charge of the big announcement, first asked: "Master Jiang, there are not many laws in our dynasty regarding the publication of newspapers. Will the court consider improving them in the future?"

"Of course it will. The Law Department of the Government Council is currently drafting relevant laws related to the publication of newspapers. I will let you know here that the Law Department will invite the main newspaper companies in Lin'an City to visit the Law Department in seven days to discuss together. pertinent laws,"

"Is that so?" Chen Zhengren said in surprise, "We, the grassroots, can also participate in the law-making deliberations."

Jiang Wanli smiled: "The emperor once said that everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. I wonder if everyone has heard of it."

"Of course I know, that's what His Majesty the Emperor said in his instruction at the Tribute Court, we all know that,"

"Well, that's right, since it's a law about the publishing industry, shouldn't it be right for the Law Department to seek opinions from you insiders?"

Jiang Wanli's words made the people in the hall mutter, and everyone couldn't help whispering. I was sitting next to the newspaperman, and Yuan Ji's hearing was excellent, so I could understand their conversation clearly.

"This, is this true?"

"It should be true. Mr. Jiang is a loyal person in the court, so he won't talk nonsense,"

"That's right, I also think it's true, maybe this is what the emperor said about everyone's responsibility,"
