Chapter 51, The Sea Embraces All Rivers
Talking about the imperial history, talking about it is crooked, returning to the court.
At this time, not only Emperor Hongzhi was dissatisfied with this imperial history Jiang Zijun, but the three cabinet scholars below also frowned one by one, this imperial history Jiang Zijun is a typical mad dog.
Regardless of whether he had a holiday with this Liu Jin or not, he directly bit it and gave Liu Jin a big hat of bewitching and confusing the public, and even beat Liu Jin to death directly in one bite.
A typical indiscriminate bite, as for the right and wrong, good or bad, whether it is good for the country, etc., completely disregarding, and biting people when they are caught.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that although what Liu Jin said sounds very ridiculous and grotesque, and there are exaggerations in many places, the minister consulted the relevant historical materials overnight last night."
"This Liu Jin's statement about our Daming monsoon climate is still very accurate, which shows that it is not completely untargeted, and many of its contents have a very important role in our Daming."
Liu Jian, as the first assistant of the cabinet, also stood up immediately, he felt that Liu Jin was still talented, such a young and talented handsome man, it was still necessary for him to protect him, and he could not be harmed by these mad dog-like imperial histories in a few words, so that the imperial court lost a talent in vain.
"Well, go on."
Emperor Hongzhi nodded with satisfaction and motioned for Liu Jian to continue.
Liu Jian is the teacher of Emperor Hongzhi, and Liu Jian knows Emperor Hongzhi's character, temperament, style of doing things, etc., very clearly.
He knows very well that the Son of Heaven in front of him is a really good person and a really good emperor.
is very good to people, even if it is an enemy who has been hurt, after he became the emperor, he also let them go; As an emperor, he is also a qualified and good emperor, not only meets all the requirements of scholars for the emperor, but also diligent government affairs, wide range of opinions, away from villains (eunuchs) close to virtuous ministers, hard work, etc., are enough to show that he is a good emperor.
Liu Jian is too aware of his student's dedication to this Ming Empire, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as painstaking.
So he knew that when Emperor Hongzhi knew that there were three high-yield crops on the Golden Continent, he knew that Emperor Hongzhi would definitely mention this matter, and he would definitely send people to the Golden Continent to find these three high-yield crops.
For this Daming, nothing is more important than the people have enough to eat, and the root cause of all problems can be attributed to this.
As long as the people can eat enough, the world will be peaceful, and other problems will not be problems at all, and they can be solved well, but once the people can't eat enough, all the problems will continue to erupt.
Thousands of years of history have been circulating around this problem, repeatedly, and never jumping out of this circle.
"Your Majesty, many of the places that this student Liu Jin said are too far away from our Daming, and we have rarely communicated with these regions for a long time."
However, his description of the Nanyang, Siam, and Annam regions is not wrong with the historical records, so some of the other regions he mentioned, such as the Golden Continent, Australia, Europe, Africa, and so on, may be true."
"Although my Ming Dynasty is Middle Earth, the treasures of the heavens and the earth are outstanding, but since ancient times, those who embrace all rivers are great, and I should be the same."
Although Liu Jian is old, he is full of energy, his voice is very loud, the words are clear, and if he is closer, he will even faintly feel his deafening.
"All rivers are inclusive?"
"Well said, my Ming should have such a bearing, the sea is inclusive, and it should be more communicated and exchanged with other regions outside the Ming Dynasty, first, to spread the prestige of my Middle Earth, and secondly, to learn the strengths of other countries and civilizations."
After listening to Liu Jian's words, Hongzhi Emperor Longyan Dayue deserves to be his teacher, and he really spoke to his heart.
"What do you think?"
After speaking, Emperor Hongzhi also looked at the others.
"The minister supports what Liu Gong said, I am very clear that the sea should be tolerant of all rivers, and tolerance is great."
Li Dongyang stood up to express his support, but in fact, it had already been discussed last night.
Everyone originally wanted to say that they would go to the Golden Continent to find high-yield crops, but this matter cannot be said directly, and they must first find a bunch of big truths to make this matter absolutely correct in the righteousness, and then when discussing the specific details, they will talk about the introduction of high-yield crops in the Golden Continent.
This is called the typical literati style of doing things, everything has to go around in a big circle, and the real purpose will be revealed in the end.
"The minister also supports what Liu Gong said, my Ming Dynasty is like a vast ocean, and hundreds of rivers become its greatness, and it is reasonable to promote the national prestige of my Ming Dynasty to the world."
Xie Qian also stood up and made a statement.
"The minister also supports Liu Gong's words."
"The minister seconded the proposal~"
The ministers all stood up one by one and expressed their agreement, in fact, everyone can see that the emperor and the cabinet have reached a tacit understanding, and if they can make the two reach a tacit understanding, everyone will know that they must be the three high-yield crops of the Golden Continent when they think about it.
Whether it is the introduction of high-yield crops in the Golden Continent, or really for the sake of embracing all rivers, or to promote the prestige of the Ming Dynasty to the outside world, since the bigwigs above have the same opinion, there is naturally no need for everyone to object, and there is absolutely no good end to going against the boss.
As for the generals above the court, they are all very interested in the eyes and noses, noses and hearts, from the change of the civil fort, after the generals and noble forces were completely suppressed, they no longer have their own opinions, even if they are named by the emperor to speak, it is just the voice of the ministers.
"The minister is opposed, I am the Ming Dynasty, the center of the world, what do you want, this extralegal wild place is either a desert or a place of extreme cold and suffering, what can such a place be worthy of our Ming to learn and communicate?"
"What's more, Zheng He went to the West in vain to waste national strength and did not have the slightest benefit to our Ming Dynasty, and it even bred the Nanyang Domain to defraud my Ming Dynasty of money in the name of tribute, and finally had to stop going to the West."
"Now my Ming treasury is empty, where does the capital come from to exchange with all over the world, even if there is money, this is also the people's fat and people's ointment, can not be squandered at will, use it for the people, and effectively seek the well-being of my Ming people."
Yu Shi Jiang Zijun agreed with the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, he couldn't help but blushed with anger, and expressed his opposition very loudly, and at the same time he also felt that he had a good opportunity to become famous.
He desperately gave a few of his colleagues in the Inspectorate a look, asking them to join him in opposing this matter.
