A yawn, a word, successfully lowered the atmosphere in the entire Jinluan Hall to the freezing point. With Tang Yu's pleading first, if Tang Jin is willing to give in and apologize, this matter will pass, for Tang Yu's sake, Tan Lao will not be too embarrassed for Tang Jin.

In fact, even Tan Lao thought so, when Tang Jin proposed to argue with the court, he thought that Tang Jin might be afraid that he would punish him, so he found an excuse to refute and let Tang Yu reconcile it. Even, not only Tan Lao, but also the ministers and the major families and businessmen in the capital also think so, and even Tang Yu himself thinks so, which is why he did not hesitate to lower his posture when he came up, no matter how Tang Jin is also his nephew, just deal with the affairs of his own family internally, and borrow the hands of outsiders, that is not good. As for saying that Tang Jin really wants to argue with Tan Laodang...... How can it be? How can a half-year-old child dare to argue academically with the emperor and Confucian? I don't know if the sky is high and the earth is thick, there must be a degree, right?

However, at this moment, everyone found out that they were wrong, Tang Jin turned out to be real! What he planned from the beginning was to really argue with Tan Lao! This...... Should he say that he is bold, or does he not know the height of the sky?

Not only the officials were shocked, but even Tan Lao, the person concerned, was shocked, but after the shock, a wave of joy emerged in his heart. First of all, regardless of whether Tang Jin is brave or ignorant of the sky, even if he really doesn't know the height of the sky, but being able to reach this level is also a manifestation of courage.

At this moment, Tan Lao appreciated Tang Jin a little more, and even thought about how to support him in the future, so that his courage could be used by Datang, after all, for Datang, I am not afraid that you are incapable, I am afraid that you are not courageous, as long as you have the courage, let it go, with Datang's national strength, there is really no bottom that cannot be contained. It can be said that no matter what the result is today, Tan Lao has decided to cultivate this young man well in the future, compared to the development of Datang, is his own business still a thing?

"Hehe, Your Majesty, have you seen it? It's not that the old man doesn't give you face, it's really His Royal Highness the Prince of the World who is pressing step by step, if the old man shouldn't, he will fall into the tongue. Tan Lao shook his head with a smile.

Seeing this, Tang Yu also shook his head with a wry smile, looked at Tang Jin, and saluted Tan Lao again, and then returned to the dragon chair. To be honest, he also wanted to see how his nephew, who was known as a "genius", planned to defeat the emperor and Confucian.

The emperor looked like he was sitting on the wall and watching, and the ministers naturally did not jump out to make trouble, and turned their heads to look at the two people in the hall one by one, quietly waiting for the two to refute.

"Before the formal refutation, the old man has something he wants to ask His Royal Highness. The old man heard that some emotional students came to your house yesterday to make trouble, and he was not only beaten by you, but also stabbed and wanted to be sent to the army. The old man thinks that they are just a group of children who don't understand the world, and they are angry for a while, and the circumstances are excusable, so you will be punished, so it is better to sell the old man's face and let them go

How? Tan Lao stroked his beard,

Tang Jin raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "Old Tan's words are wrong. I had already hung a notice at the door yesterday, and the notice was written with laws completely copied from the "Tang Law", and not a single word was changed. They know the law and break the law, if they just let me go, what is the majesty of the law of the Tang Dynasty? Or does Tan Lao think that his face is bigger than the law of the Tang Dynasty? ”

"This ...... But most of them are innocent, just infected by the atmosphere......"

Before Tan Lao's words were finished, Tang Jin interrupted: "When there is an avalanche, no snow is innocent. Whether I have a heart or an unintention, what I do is what I do, is it possible that I take the initiative to kill people is murder, and if I miss to kill someone, it is not? I'm a person who doesn't look at the process, only the result. Besides, they can be infected by the atmosphere today and impact my Shizi Mansion, maybe tomorrow they will be infected by people to raise the flag and rebel, is it necessary to keep such an anti-backbone? ”

Tang Jin's words are irrefutable to those who say them simply and directly, especially when he raises the problem to the height of rebellion, if Tan Lao insists on letting Tang Jin release him, maybe Tang Jin will be labeled as a rebel, this is not a joke.

"Okay, then let's talk about this later, let's talk about the present. I don't know what His Royal Highness wants to argue with the old man? Tan Lao couldn't say it, so he decisively and bluntly changed the topic.

Tang Jin didn't poke at him, but looked around and said, "Of course, I continued what I didn't finish yesterday." Whether the words of the sages are unshakable words of eternity or empirical words that can only be used as a reference for future generations; The policy of the sages is to remain unchanged for 10,000 years, or should it be realistic and give up at the right time. ”

"Shhh

As soon as Tang Jin's words came out, all the ministers present took a breath of cool air, and turned their heads to look at Shen Kuo on the side, Tang Jin's words were obviously aimed at their ancestors, could he bear this? Didn't you say that the two were allies?

However, the next moment when everyone imagined that Shen Kuo was thundering did not happen, Shen Kuo showed a thoughtful expression, and he was really thinking about the rights and wrongs of this topic. The hundred officials who were doing it were blinded on the spot, brother, he was talking about your ancestors, shaking the foundation of your family, why didn't you react? Fostered?

In fact, Shen Kuo didn't react there? He didn't dare to react! Last night, Tang Jin specially went to the Guogong Mansion in order to stabilize his emotions, so as not to let Shen Kuo stand up and scold his mother. And his method was also very simple, taking the manuscript left by Shen Mo, as well as some dictionaries, he explained to Shen Kuo the meaning of the words on the shadow wall of their house, and then ...... Shen Kuo was honest.

Nonsense! Can you not be honest? Insult the first emperor! If this is said, it is estimated that the emperor will be able to gouge out the silence and whip the corpse! As for the fate of the Shen family, do you need to say more? It would be nice to be able to save my life! In comparison, Tang Jin just shook their foothold, and this loss was not too small. So there is the current trick

A different scene.

Although he was also surprised why Shen Kuo didn't stand up and scold his mother, but Tang Jin finished speaking, he had to say something, Tan Lao immediately said: "The old man thinks that this question does not need to be argued at all, in fact, everyone here can answer this question." As an official of my Tang Dynasty, who else can have more say than them in the party of education and the policies of the imperial court? ”

After Tan Lao finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the hundred officials, the hundred officials were slightly stunned, and they all reacted, the two oldest of them glanced at each other, and stood up with a smile, one of the slightly thin old men said: "Lord Tan said this very much, His Royal Highness the Prince is not in the officialdom, and he doesn't know much about the people's livelihood of the country, so he said what he just said." The old man has served in the imperial court for many years, and has served as the priest of the country and the head of the household, so he must still be qualified to answer this question. In the old man's view, the words of the sage are the most reasonable in the world, and we can only get a glimpse of one or two of them if we study hard, the so-called reference...... Oh, it's arrogant; As for the policy of governing the country, there is no doubt about this, since I Datang Lord Shen, the national policy has never changed, and today the country is rich and the people are strong, and the four seas are peaceful, isn't this the best proof? ”

After the old man finished speaking, he and Tan Lao glanced at each other, and the two smiled heartily. However, in the face of the old man's arguments, Tang Jin shook his head disapprovingly, "This lord, does what you say have anything to do with what I said?" I'm talking about now, you're going to pull it over for me? I have never denied that there is any problem with what Lord Shen said and did in the past, I am talking about the present. ”

Without waiting for the two to speak, Tang Jin continued: "Just like you just said, my Tang Dynasty is now rich and strong, and the four seas are level, compared to Lord Shen's weakness at that time, there is a huge gap. Lord Shen's words, deeds and policies corresponded to the weak and small country at that time, advocating heavy agriculture and suppressing business, and reducing foreign trade to ensure the stability of the domestic market. But in this case, can Lord Shen's policy still apply? ”

"How not to apply?" Apparently Tobe Shangshu on the side asked.

"Of course not! Agriculture is fundamental, but if you want to really strengthen the country's economy, you have to start with business. Money has no value when it is saved, it is valuable only when it is circulated. For example, I went to the hotel and gave the shopkeeper ten taels of silver, and the shopkeeper got the money to settle the money owed for the vegetables, and the vegetable farmer took the money to settle the meat money owed, and the butcher took the money to the shopkeeper to settle the money owed. The total amount of silver has not changed, but everyone has paid off their debts. This is the value of money circulation, but also the value of commerce, if you want the country to be richer and stronger, it is imperative to focus on business, in this case, Lord Shen's policy is still right? ”

Looking at the people in front of him who were deep in thought because of his words, or still thinking about the examples he cited, Tang Jin smiled disdainfully, and said in his heart: "Xiaoxiao, the foundation of economics is not good, and you dare to argue with me here?" Who gave you courage? Liang Jingru? ”
