Daming: My boss Zhu Yuanzhang

Zong Le and Sun Biyun, two newly appointed monks and Taoist officials, saw Zhu Yuanzhang killing a third-rank official of the imperial court to death on the spot. They felt uneasy in their hearts. They deeply realized what it means to accompany a king like a tiger. !

After Li Shilu's screams completely disappeared, Zhu Yuanzhang snorted and sat back on the dragon throne again.

"You two, as soon as possible, recruit monks from all over the world who are proficient in the classics and have upright conduct to come to the capital in preparation for appointment by the imperial court!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened, and his tone of voice was still full of anger when he spoke.

Zong Le and Sun Biyun did not dare to say anything and quickly agreed: "I obey your order!"

After the two agreed, Zhu Yuanzhang looked away from them, looked at Li Shilu who was beaten to death outside the door and snorted coldly.

After the edict was issued, monks and Taoists from temples and Taoist temples all over the world soon heard the news and rushed to the capital, hoping to win the favor of the current emperor and find an official position.

The official positions of the Senglu Division and the Daolu Division are not given for free. Once selected, not only will they receive a salary, but they can also serve as the abbot and temple master of various Taoist temples. They may even have higher official positions and can decide the various temples within their jurisdiction. A good candidate for the leadership of temples and Taoist temples.

Not only that, in addition to managing the affairs of his own Buddhist and Taoist sects, he could also recommend talents to the saints and make suggestions.

Although such monks and Taoists do not directly participate in government affairs, as long as they can speak to the emperor, that is a great power!

Yangzhou, Beilai Temple.

In the place where Zhang Fengyi and Zhang Ziyi once hid, the old monk was still quietly chanting sutras, worshiping Buddha, and cultivating his moral character.

At this time, a young monk hurriedly walked in, holding a letter in his hand.

"Abbott, there is a letter from the capital."

The young monk presented the letter and said softly.

The old monk stopped knocking on the wooden fish, slowly opened his eyes, and turned to look at the letter in the young monk's hand.

On the cover of the letter, there are four big words written: Dao Yan personally opens it!

"Heaven has its way, and my destiny has finally come!"

Dao Yan, or rather Yao Guangxiao, took a deep breath to suppress the waves in his heart and murmured to himself in a low voice.

After the words fell, his eyes gradually brightened, and his whole person's temperament changed drastically. He was no longer the self-cultivation and aloof person he was before. Instead, he was full of high-spirited fighting spirit, and there was a faint desire to compete with God. Ambition!

After a moment, he calmed down the waves in his chest, and then he reached out and took the letter.

However, after receiving the letter, he did not rush to open it, but directly gave instructions to the young monk:

"I will go to Beijing to run for election today, so hurry up and prepare my bags."

"Okay, Abbot." The young monk respectfully agreed and left in a hurry.

After the young monk left, he opened the letter and read the contents carefully.

The letter was talking about the selection of monks and Taoist talents, and it was signed by Zuo Shanshizongle, the newly appointed Senglu Secretary.

Zongle was originally the abbot of Tianning Temple in Yangzhou. Tianning Temple and Beilai Temple lived next to each other. Naturally, the two of them had known each other for a long time. Now that His Majesty has issued an edict to select monks, he will certainly not forget Yao Guangxiao, a scholar with extensive classics and talents. An outstanding monk.

Yao Guangxiao read the letter and put it in his sleeve. He looked up in the direction of the capital with a smile on his face.

The monks and Taoists all over the world actively participated in the selection, but soon they would find out how difficult it was to be an official in the old Zhu family. Zhu Yuanzhang treated the Confucian scholars ruthlessly, and he would not be an exception to the Buddhist and Taoist families.

Minghuang Academy.

Li Wei took a group of children back to the academy after a day of practical lessons.

After entering the door, these children were still chattering and playing. Compared to boring reading in the academy, they of course preferred to follow Li Wei to the Ordnance Bureau to play with those novel gadgets, and they had a lot of fun every time.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

As soon as everyone entered, there was a burst of laughter in the main room, which suppressed the noise of the children.

Li Wei glanced in the direction of the main room in surprise, feeling suspicious in his heart, and all the students stopped making noise one after another.

"Lu Xiu, Lu Hong, take the students back to the house to study by themselves."

Li Wei waved his hand and ordered the two monitors to take their classmates back to the house. Lu Xiu and Lu Hong obediently agreed.

Although the students were also curious about the burst of laughter in the hall, they still had to listen to Teacher Li's instructions. They could only follow the monitor back to their classrooms.

After Li Wei arranged the students, he walked alone into the main room that had been transformed into the teacher's office. I saw Fang Xiaoru in the room, holding a thick book, giggling non-stop, as if he had won a treasure.

Li Wei stepped forward, looked at him, and asked softly: "Teacher Fang, what disease do you have? Do you need to find a doctor for you?"

When Fang Xiaoru, who was smiling all over his face, heard what he said, his smile suddenly stopped and he glanced at him angrily.

"I have compiled the concept of studying things to gain knowledge and integrating knowledge and action that you mentioned before into a book. Take a look."

Fang Xiaoru said and handed over the book in his hand.

Li Wei took the thick book and was suddenly stunned.

He remembered that he only said a few words at that time, and Fang Xiaoru actually expanded it into a book with tens of thousands of words. He was simply better than those Internet writers of later generations!

Li Wei curled his lips and returned the book to him without reading it: "Just write, are you smiling like a lunatic?"

When Fang Xiaoru heard this, he was immediately unhappy: "What do you know? What Li Xue expounded is a philosophy of governing the world. It will be spread throughout the world and educate people, which will be of great benefit to the country and the country..."

"Okay, okay, just say yes, you're amazing, right?"

Li Wei quickly raised his hand to interrupt. He didn't care about these things. What he believed in was "learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, and you won't be afraid of traveling around the world." As for other things, in his opinion, they were all used to deceive people.

Fang Xiaoru knew his temper, so she didn't waste any time and carefully put the book away.

"After I revise it again, I will submit this book to Your Majesty and confer this Li Xueguang to the world." Fang Xiaoru said softly.

"Uh-huh!"

Li Wei nodded lightly, turned around and was about to leave, but after taking two steps he suddenly paused: "Wait a minute, what kind of study do you think this is?"

Fang Xiaoru glanced at him and said, "Li Xue."

"Which Li?"

"Of course it's your last name, Li. This is the idea you proposed, and it's natural to name it after your last name." Fang Xiaoru said calmly.

He is an upright man and has noble moral character. Although Li Wei only proposed an idea and the specific explanations in this book are all written by him, he is not greedy for credit, but attributes the credit to Li Wei.

Li Wei's face turned red, and he felt a bit ashamed of a plagiarist.

"Well, I don't think it's necessary. I just casually provided you with an inspiration. Specifically, this book was written by you. I think it should be called Fang Xue, or Xiaoru Xue, it's up to you. Anyway, don’t call him Li Xue.”

Li Wei declined.

Others don't know, but he himself knows that it would be embarrassing if the original author saw it a hundred years later.

At that time, will he be considered as copying someone else's, or will they be considered as someone copying his?

If someone were to copy him, how shameless would he be!

Fang Xiaoru glanced at him and couldn't help but admire his deeds that were indifferent to fame and fortune.

"You don't need to be too modest. Without your idea, I wouldn't be able to write such a classic. The name can wait until I submit it to Your Majesty for your Majesty to decide, but both of you and I can be included in the signature," Fang Xiaoru said. .

"Uh……"

Li Wei was startled when he heard this, and the figure of Lao Zhu appeared in his mind. Almost the next moment, he thought of what Lao Zhu would name this handed down classic.

If he were more selfish, he would probably just name it "Zhu Ming" or something like "Zhu Ming". Even if he was a little more generous, it would still be "Ming Huang".

"Okay, whatever you want."

Li Wei said nonchalantly, and then turned and left the place to continue teaching to the students.

What we learn here and that is all in vain. The real thing is to teach students mathematics, physics and chemistry well so that they can devote themselves to the great cause of developing science and technology as soon as possible. (End of chapter)
