Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 1282 One emperor through the ages

  Xiao Jing suddenly felt a sense of sadness.

   He is happy to serve His Majesty.

  But I still have to be controlled by a female doll, so why did we cut ourselves off in the first place?

Emperor Hongzhi still wanted to say: "In addition to the responsibilities of the Statistics Department, the officials of the various ministries must first be called to study, let them learn how to read the report, and let them learn how to fill it out. The envoys, all prefectures and counties, must learn, understand, and be refined. Liu Qing's family."

  Liu Jian kept nodding.

  He has read the report. This is a good thing. With such a thing, not only will it be easier to govern the world in the future, it will save a lot of effort, and it will also greatly reduce the possibility of being deceived.

  This is also the reason why His Majesty placed the Statistics Department under the cabinet. There must be a system independent of the six departments.

   And His Majesty ordered the factory guards to assist, obviously, it is also a well-thought-out method.

  Factory guards are incompatible with the ministries of the imperial court.

   It is precisely because water and fire are incompatible that it is possible to prevent the officials below from tampering with statistics.

   Liu Jian said: "The minister is here."

Emperor Hongzhi said: "Let's copy the mansion newspaper, blow the wind first, and then... By the way, Jifan, you count as a college, and you have to send out a lot of students. Let them study first, and then appoint them to various prefectures and counties. This is a university question, it seems simple, but it needs to be well-organized, so it is necessary to let the local officials learn it well."

  Fang Jifan and Liu Jian saluted one after another: "Observe the order."

  Emperor Hongzhi heaved a sigh of relief. He couldn't imagine that Fang Xiaofan, a little girl, would be entrusted with such an important task by himself.

   Looking back now, it's incredible.

Emperor Hongzhi lowered his head and took out the report to read. At this time, he no longer treated Fang Xiaofan as a child, and said solemnly: "If the treasury has insufficient money and food, I will take another one hundred thousand taels of silver from the internal funds and use it as This time, we will sort out the actual situation of money and rations in the states and governments of the world, Xiaofan, you can do it boldly, and I will reward you when the time comes."

  Fang Xiaofan's pretty face flushed with excitement: "Okay, rest assured, Your Majesty, I will let Your Majesty know all the wealth and goods in the world."

Emperor Hongzhi laughed: "The Fang family is really full of loyalty. Your father is in Huangjinzhou. If you know that you two brothers and sisters are so outstanding, I don't know how happy you will be. I will write a letter to your father. Congratulations to him."

  Emperor Hongzhi then glanced at Xiao Jing: "Banban Xiao."

  Xiao Jing bowed his body: "The servant is here."

   "Did you understand what I said?"

   "Your servant understands, I will definitely assist Fang Sheren."

  Emperor Hongzhi said: "If it's done well, you will have the credit. If it can't be done well, I won't run Fang Qing's house, so I'll find you."

  This sentence is understandable.

The report was presented by Fang Xiaofan. She is a calculation genius, but after all, she is still young, so she takes care of herself. If she has other thoughts, Emperor Hongzhi will not believe it. Therefore, if things go wrong, even though she There are mistakes, but not many. Nine times out of ten, it's just that the subordinates deceived the superiors and concealed the truth from the subordinates, and refused to help with all their strength. Therefore, Emperor Hongzhi had a wrongdoing, a debtor, and if the factory guard lost chains, he came to you, Xiao Jing.

  Xiao Jing hurriedly said with difficulty: "Yes, yes, this servant knows."

   "That's good." Emperor Hongzhi smiled: "I am waiting for your good news."

  Currently, these reports are still too rough. He looks forward to more detailed reports, but... If you want to map out the whole world, don't even think about it if you don't have more than a year's work.

  Emperor Hongzhi exhaled and looked around: "I'm tired too, get up."

As he said that, Emperor Hongzhi stopped suddenly, with displeasure on his face, and said to Liu Jian: "Liu Qing's family, recently, there have been many Hanlin and Yushi, who have been playing all day long, saying that Changping is the era of great governance. I don’t need to read the report in the future, if there is another report like this in the cabinet, you don’t need to enter it, just keep it.”

   Liu Jian looked ashamed.

  Of course he knows what Qingliu and Shilin scholars think.

  This group of people are like drowning people. They are more and more aware that their era is gradually moving away from theirs.

In the past, they pointed out the country and scolded Fang Qiu, how proud they were, but since the new learning gradually became popular, they are like a group of outcasts. In the court, the emperor does not value them more and more. The chief minister of Baoding, in the temple, the position of the Academy of Sciences is gradually strengthening, and His Majesty is more inclined to follow the advice of the Academy of Sciences, rather than the Imperial Academy, which is proficient in literature and history.

   Official selection has also begun to emerge, and gradually, it has been relied on by the imperial court.

  Even if it is the imperial examination... No matter how hard it is for them to do anything, they are actually taken up by new learners.

  If things go on like this, their future can already be imagined.

  In the past, those who entered the Hanlin Academy were the proud sons of heaven and became idols envied by thousands of people.

   But now, the Hanlin Academy has begun to gradually decline.

  They are like a group of drowning people, and at this moment, Mao Ji's deeds in Changping have become their life-saving straw. They grabbed this life-saving straw without hesitation, wishing to tell the whole world that the court... had a choice.

  Xinxue can make outstanding achievements in Baoding Chief Commissioner.

  Natural science is also available.

   Isn’t the goal of the sage realized in Changping?

  These people are crazy enough to write a book, constantly praising, and expressing the desire that this Changping is the correct path.

  In the open and in the dark, they belittled the New Deal, and even...had complaints about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

   But these...

  Liu Jian and others who are in the cabinet are in a dilemma. They know very well that they cannot stop the scholars from all over the world, but Liu Jian does not agree with what happened in Changping.

  The new learning emphasizes the prosperity of the people and the strength of the country.

   Neo-Confucianism emphasizes education.

  They prefer the former.

   Liu Jian said: "Your Majesty... this is a memorandum after all. If I stay here without authorization, I'm afraid it will break the rules."

  Cabinet Grand Scholars do not have the right to choose which memorials can be submitted to the palace. If they can keep the memorials without authorization, it is a big treason against themselves.

  Emperor Hongzhi snorted coldly: "These people sit and talk about the Tao all day long, discussing the government indiscriminately, is it tolerable, which one is not tolerable, do you have to let me use the scepter?"

   "Your Majesty, this..." Liu Jian was even more embarrassed.

  If things go on like this, Gongzhong and Qingliu will inevitably cause conflicts.

  If you criticize His Majesty, His Majesty has a good temper, so he doesn't care about it.

  But...Liu Jian knew that they criticized the prince, and they criticized the prince again and again. This is something His Majesty cannot tolerate.

   "Your Majesty..." Fang Jifan said with a smile beside him.

  Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help looking at Fang Jifan.

But Fang Jifan was pleased: "Your Majesty, since they praise Mao Ji so much, I think this Mr. Mao Ji must be a great person. He has such virtues and can benefit the people through enlightenment. Why does Your Majesty Why don't you reward Mr. Mao Ji?"

   "What?" Emperor Hongzhi looked at Fang Jifan with a puzzled expression.

  I still reward Mao Ji?

Fang Jifan said: "I believe that this is not only a reward, but also let all the officials in the world go to Changping to take a look, see this peaceful world with their own eyes, let them have a look, Mr. Mao Ji and his The achievements of the disciples, if Changping can not pick up lost things on the road and never close the door at night, then everyone should go and see, and then we can learn some of Changping's success from them."

"The so-called success doesn't have to depend on me. As long as the new learning and the Neo-Confucianism can benefit the soldiers and civilians of the world, why bother to divide each other and have to compete for superiority and inferiority? My minister built Xishan Academy, although it is to promote new learning, But for the great Confucianists of Confucianism, I also admire them very much, and never have any views on them. The master said, "Threesomes, there must be my teacher. Mr. Mao Ji has this talent. He can govern the country and the world with only the four books and five classics. My son is a role model, my son really wants to learn more from him."

  Looking at Fang Jifan's sincere expression.

  Emperor Hongzhi was in a trance for a while.

   What this guy said actually makes sense.

   When faced with criticism from Neo Confucianism, he can still treat people equally. Jifan...is really a loyal boy.

Emperor Hongzhi sighed with emotion in his heart, and with his hands behind his back, he muttered: "Soon, it will be the end of the year. The Qing family said that it is not unreasonable to go and learn. In the past two years, I have ordered many officials to go to Baoding Mansion. Let them take a look at the New Deal. Now, if this Changping is really as the people say, let the ministers take a look and learn from it, there is nothing wrong with it."

  Emperor Hongzhi changed his mind.

  Instead of being disgusted with it, it is better to try to accept it and see what this world of great rule looks like.

   Of course... the year is closing.

  But my son is still in Changping.

He pondered for a moment: "What's more, Changping is only a day or two away from the capital, so why not, I will go to see you in person, and those ministers who are willing to go to Changping to see and see can also accompany you. I... want to You have to pay a personal visit to this Mr. Mao Ji and call him for a talk, maybe you can gain something."

  Emperor Hongzhi finished speaking and glanced at Liu Jian.

   Liu Jian felt very relieved.

This is the difference between His Majesty and the kings of previous dynasties. Even if you are disgusted with a person, you can still calm down after getting angry. Since you have encountered opposition from these people, you might as well go talk to Mao Ji to ease these contradictions .

   Anger does not solve problems.

   Your Majesty knows this better than himself.

  It would be great if it can ease the contradiction.

   Liu Jian hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is wise."

   Xie Qian also breathed a sigh of relief, and followed suit.

  Only Li Dongyang gave Fang Jifan a meaningful look, smiling thoughtfully.

  Fang Jifan shook his head at this time: "Your Majesty is more than a sage, he is simply superior to Yao and Shun, Sai Yutang, the ancient sage, is not as good as your majesty in case."
