Chen Dong and the other students were suddenly unaware, and they didn't notice that Zhao Huan's face had begun to develop from no joy and anger to gloomy like water, let alone that the courtiers around him began to move their steps and retreat quietly.

These "future gentry and pillars of the country" are still immersed in the excitement of the official family, and some people have even begun to imagine how Zhao Huan will admit his mistake with tears in his eyes and then issue an order to abolish the ladder tax rate, and how to invite himself to the court to support the government.

The more I thought about it, the more excited I became, and many of the frothing scholars were already flushed, obviously caught in the beautiful fantasy of being promoted and raised in the future to marry Bai Fumei.

It wasn't until many people felt thirsty that the gibble slowly stopped—

I thought that today's official family was a corporal of etiquette, but I never thought that I didn't even have a cup of tea!

Zhao Huan looked at the many scholars in the hall whose foreheads had begun to sweat, and then couldn't help but shake his head, coughed and said, "It's all over?" If it's all said, how many words will I say? ”

Chen Dong and the others really wanted to say no, and then continued, it is best to say a special session today.

But the thirst, the feeling of dry mouth is there, and even the throat is faintly hoarse.

That's it, wait for the roll call outside the Donghua Gate, and enter the court as an official has the opportunity to persuade the official, there is no need to embarrass your voice now.

Seeing that all the members of the group did not continue to speak, Zhao Huan stood up from the dragon chair and paced two steps, and then pointed to Chen Dong and said, "I came to ask you, where did you hear about the ladder tax rate?" ”

Chen Dong was suddenly a little confused.

Shouldn't the official admit his mistake and then issue an edict to retract the order, and never mention the matter of the tiered tax rate again, and then issue an edict to praise himself and others? How can you ask such a simple question?

After pondering for a long time, Chen Dong had no choice but to shake his head and replied, "Qijuan Guanjia, the student listened to the diners next to him when he was drinking with his friends in the Zhuangyuan Building in Beijing a few days ago. ”

Zhao Huan nodded, glanced at He Ji, and then asked, "Then I will ask you again, what is the people?" ”

"The official family, the people, there are clouds in "Shuowen": all the people are also cute. Words are cute and ignorant. From the image of the ancient text. All the people belong to the people. ”

When asked about this, Chen Dong suddenly came to his senses, and he couldn't even care about being thirsty: "Another four people." "The Biography of Gu Liang: The First Year of Cheng": The Four Ancients: There are scholars, merchants, farmers, and workers. Note: De Neng is a scholar, planting soil and planting grains, and skillfully working into utensils and goods. ”

Zhao Huan couldn't help but shake his head-

The earliest image of the people in the oracle bone inscription is like a stabbed eye, indicating that the prisoners of war who are blinded in one eye are used as slaves, and then refers to civilians and ordinary people. You still need to say this kind of!?

Seeing Zhao Huan shaking his head gently, Chen Dong couldn't help but be a little confused, but he didn't know what he said wrong, and remembered that this was playing right in the court, and suddenly he felt a little helpless.

Zhao Huan didn't care, but then asked: "What does it mean to compete with the people?" The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency when there is more loss, and the way of man is to give enough for the lack of loss.

Today, the poor are getting poorer and poorer, and there is almost no place to stand, and the rich are getting richer, and they are connected to each other, and they do not suppress mergers, isn't it different from the way of heaven?

I want to establish a ladder tax rate, the rich will collect more taxes, the poor will collect less taxes or even no taxes, and the loss will be more than enough to make up for the shortcomings, this is the way of heaven, and the taxes collected will also be used to strengthen the country, strengthen the army and strengthen the people, so how can we compete with the people for profit? ”

Shaking his head again, Zhao Huan looked at the soldier who said "Jin Bing's life is also his life" just now, and asked, "Have you ever been to the border pass?" Do you know how many sons of my Da Song died in side affairs? Do you know how many of the people of my Great Song Dynasty died at the hands of Jin Bing? The life of the Jin soldiers is also the life, but the life of the people of my Great Song Dynasty is not the life? ”

Turning his gaze to another scholar who accused Qin Hui of overhauling the Great Wall, causing resentment among the people, Zhao Huan then asked: "If you don't build the Great Wall, how can you stop the Jin soldiers from plundering south?" Since the beginning of the Zhou, to my Great Song Dynasty, Hu cavalry has not stopped south, if there is no Great Wall, rely on you to block the Jin soldiers? ”

As soon as this was mentioned, the scholars in the hall suddenly came to their senses again, and the nonsense of "Guangxiu benevolence, Siyi Binfu" and other nonsense was endless, and it directly turned the good Zichen Hall into a vegetable market.

And Zhao Huan was finally completely disappointed, and even the last bit of hope in his heart was extinguished by these scholars themselves.

Guangxiu Rende and then Siyi Binfu's statement, the basis of these scholars is "Han Feizi Wuyi": "When Shun, there are seedlings who are not convinced, and Yu will cut them down." Shun said, "No." Virtue is not thick and martial arts, not Tao. 'It is a three-year practice, doing Qi dance, and there are seedlings and clothes. ”

But these sand sculptures didn't pay attention to the point in this sentence - doing Qi Dance!

Gan and Qi refer to two kinds of weapons in ancient times: shields and axes, using weapons as tools for dancing, quite a taste of salute before soldiers, virtue before martial arts, basically Miao was not convinced by Shun at that time, Yu was ready to do it directly, but Shun chose to take the axe and shield to compare and draw, which means to tell Youmiao: Little brother, are you convinced? If you don't accept it, I'll you!

Then there are seedlings and they take it.

In other words, if Shun wasn't dancing there with an axe and a shield, and what was he doing at home to take a three-year leave of absence, would you try to have Miao or not? Most of them will come over and hang Shun up and beat him up, which is true!

Now these sand sculpture scholars are like this, full of thoughts about benevolence and morality, but they threw Gan and Qi aside, and they don't know that they know that they have faces and call themselves Confucians-

It is true that Confucius founded Confucianism, but the Confucianism founded by Confucius, who was able to fight the bull, advocated the six arts, which basically required "Confucianism" to be able to be literate and martial arts, to be able to write and to calm the world, to be able to set the world with martial arts, and to retreat from the distance of the rivers and lakes to worry about its king.

But what about now? Since the Tang Dynasty, riding and archery have obviously been used by these scholars on the girls of the Qinglou Chu Pavilion, and they can't do anything like horseback archery at all, which is simply a loss of Confucius's face!

"Now, which of you can come and tell me about beating Zhu Gongzhi to death in front of the palace gate."

Looking at the scholars who had once again fallen into self-congratulation and couldn't extricate themselves, Zhao Huan shook his head again and said, "Zhu Gongzhi, I remember him, a very kind-hearted eunuch, who also followed me to conquer Taiyuan in person. ”

As he spoke, Zhao Huan became angry: "However, he did not die in the hands of Jin Bing, but in your hands!" He is wrong, he should not persuade you to go back to study, lest you anger me and be cut by me! ”
