The Three Kingdoms: A vicious plan was offered, and Liu Bei was stunned!

Chapter 416: The promotion of culture and education to enlighten the people, Liu Xie's strange thoughts and his madness to make money
When Luo Yuan couldn't get an answer from the people around him, he went to Zhang Zhongjing for tea!
Hua Tuo and Guan Ning heard that Luo Yuan had arrived, so they came over to drink tea together.

Luo Yuan talked about his troubles!

Guan Ning thought for a moment and said, "Your Excellency is right. Justice and fairness are fundamental. Money should not be involved. Otherwise, there will be injustice in the world."

Luo Yuan was overjoyed: "Do you think I'm right?"

"Of course you are right. What is the difference between the nobles and the common people? The nobles have money and land, while the common people have nothing. The rich will definitely oppress the poor. People are always greedy!"

Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing both thought that Luo Yuan did a good job.

Luo Yuan looked at the three of them and thought for a moment, then he immediately understood that only those who were fair and just would support him. Xu Shu, the people around him, and Liu Xie did not need fairness and justice because they themselves represented fairness and justice.

Only those who lack fairness and justice in the world will pursue it; those who already have it will not care about it.

This is class.

One class cannot feel the joys, sorrows, anger, or happiness of another class, nor can they empathize with them.

People like Zhang Zhongjing have been among the people for a long time and have been in contact with the common people, so they know what the people need.

Luo Yuan smiled and said, "I know what to do. I came from the people and I should return to the people. Jiangling is now rich and prosperous, making people forget the war in the world."

Luo Yuan no longer hesitated. He would not agree with Liu Xie's approach. Any official document from the joint court must be based on facts.

Condemn Han Xuan if you want!
It was not because Han Xuan massacred the gentry, but because Han Xuan massacred the Han people, causing the human disaster in Changsha and slaughtering lives.
This is absolutely not in line with the nature of the Han nationality!
Luo Yuan said to Guan Ning, "To open the people's wisdom, we must rely on education. I can only entrust this matter to you, the gentleman. You can build schools and teach the world. All resources of the military office will be prioritized for your needs."

Guan Ning was shocked. Luo Yuan’s move was too big!
Jiang Ling has always been very supportive of education, and Guan Ning feels very good about it. Luo Yuan is definitely the one who cares most about education among the princes.

But isn’t that enough?
Luo Yuan promised the same thing as Guan Ning, saying, "From today on, within the area occupied by our Jiangling Army, education is the top priority. Children must start to study from the age of six until the age of fifteen. Those who do not respect the law will be severely punished, not allowed to join the army, not allowed to serve as officials, and will be heavily taxed. Their parents will be forced to work for ten years. This applies to both boys and girls!"

As Luo Yuan spoke, Guan Ning hurriedly wrote it down and handed it to Luo Yuan. After Luo Yuan took off the seal from his waist and stamped it, he immediately sent someone to deliver it to Xu Shu at the General's Office.

Guan Ning felt a great responsibility and said, "Your Excellency, do you want to respect Confucianism?"

This is something to think about.

Whether Confucianism is good or not is a big issue!

This is a very important matter.

Luo Yuan said: "I haven't made up my mind yet. If you don't respect Confucianism, I will invite the world to discuss it."

Guan Ning nodded and said, "Yes, Your Excellency can invite hundreds of scholars from all over the world to Jiangling to discuss learning."

"A hundred schools of thought discussing academic matters? Sure!" Luo Yuan smiled. "Then we can set up a forum for the hundred schools of thought and invite the descendants of the hundred schools of thought to come on stage and preach, and jointly determine the future situation of the Han Dynasty for the next thousand years."

Luo Yuan got rid of his worries and felt better.

After all, I am only one person. I can learn from future models in politics, but what about culture?

A nation needs its own cultural spirit. Confucian culture is not bad. It advocates loyalty to the emperor, patriotism, self-cultivation and the improvement of the world.

But this road has already been taken. Confucianism can shape the spirit of a nation, but it is not enough when used in politics. Isn’t the doctrine of the mean bureaucracy?
What Luo Yuan wanted was an era of great prosperity, an era in which foreign races should submit, in which the people should be full of energy and in which they could show off their might when they went abroad.

And this nation also needs to have the ability to correct itself from within.

This is also the task that the system assigns to itself.

【System Task: Sage Within and King Without】

Luo Yuan hopes that through a big discussion, ideas will collide and spark in Jiangling! In the Warring States Period a thousand years ago, thinkers burst out countless theories for the sake of national security. Thought is the most precious thing of the Chinese nation.

Luo Yuan ended the tea party with Zhang Zhongjing and others, and then went to find Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, don't suppress the imperial power. Don't worry that I will kill you if the imperial power expands in the future."

Liu Xie's eyes flickered, and seeing Luo Yuan was very serious, he couldn't help but sigh: "You are you, your son?"

You think long term!

He really is worthy of being an emperor.

Emperors think about the long term. Liu Xie doesn't worry about himself. Luo Yuan is a very good person in this regard, but he has to think about his descendants.

If Luo Yuan’s son wanted to become emperor one day, the first family to be destroyed would be the Liu family.

“Is it too far-fetched?

Liu Xie sat down and looked at Luo Yuan: "Gongqi is not too far away, but it is right in front of us. You have several wives, and each of them gives birth to a son. What will you do if they fight for the throne in the future? Look at Cao Cao!"

"Besides, the internal strife of my Liu family and the struggle for the throne are all recorded in history books. You can see for yourself that there was a sea of ​​blood and killing."

Liu Xie looked at Luo Yuan seriously and said, "I am not doing this for a little money, but for the long-term future a hundred years from now. I witnessed Dong Zhuo's chaotic government in the past."

Liu Xie had rich experience and his life could be considered legendary. He witnessed the most chaotic years of the Han Dynasty, and his own identity was constantly changing in the chaos.

"The Queen Mother and the Empress Dowager died just like that... I saw it."

Luo Yuan immediately felt sympathy for Liu Xie. He witnessed his relatives being killed when he was a child, which left him with a psychological trauma. He wished he was not smart, so he could be ignorant and carefree.

But he is a very smart person.

Liu Xie said: "I am very happy to come to Jiangling. After reading the books you wrote, I also know that the Han Dynasty is impossible. I am the last emperor, right? What's wrong with letting me be ridiculous? King You of Zhou could light the beacon tower, so it is not ridiculous for me to be a merchant emperor."

"That won't work. You are the leader of the Han Dynasty's revival."

"I'm Zhongxing?"

Liu Xie looked at Luo Yuan ridiculously and said, "Are you talking about me? I don't believe it myself."

"Don't worry, you will definitely be the leader of the revival. Don't you have me?" Luo Yuan said with a smile.

Liu Xie thought about it and agreed, but he still decided to be a tyrant.

"Anyway, I want to collect money, just don't worry about it. It's good for me to be a tyrant, so why shouldn't I be one?" Liu Xie said, "I know my limits."

Luo Yuan thought for a moment and said, "You can't accept money for official documents from the imperial court, but I can get you something that can accept money!"

"what?"

"The court bulletin."

Luo Yuan thought about letting Liu Xie get a newspaper. Writing articles in newspapers to criticize others would have a worse impact than using official documents from the court to criticize others.

It’s enough for Liu Xie to play with.

Luo Yuan explained the meaning of the newspaper, and Liu Xie said with satisfaction: "This way, we can criticize people specifically, right? If the princes want to criticize people, they just pay them?"

I don't fucking want to talk to you anymore, is that what I mean?
