Chapter 589: Everyone is like a dragon
Cui Wancai, the world often calls it a good appearance.
The so-called good appearance is not the thief of the people as Mencius said, but a virtuous minister who can really govern the people's livelihood in the world, at least for Cui Wancai, he does live up to the expectations of the world.
At least from the establishment of the Great Chu State, most of the policies that should be used to appease the people came out of his hands, and then the emperor began to promulgate the implementation of the world, and the new policy of benefiting the people implemented by Ning Yu was also fully supported by Cui Wancai.
Therefore, on today's question, Cui Wancai once again stood up, he raised his head and looked at the emperor, his eyes were a little bright.
"Your Majesty, the minister is over fifty years old, originally just a sour Confucian madman in the township, although he has a reputation or two, but he can't do anything practical for the country and the people. Fortunately, His Majesty's talent led the army to rise in the grass, and finally dominated the world, laying the great cause of Great Chu, and also allowing the ministers to gain a foothold in the court. β
When it came to this, the monarchs and ministers were speechless, but they invariably thought of the bits and pieces of the year, after a few years of wind and rain, maybe this pair of monarchs and ministers, no, should be this pair of teachers and students, but they understand the ambition of the other party better.
If Cui Wancai doesn't understand the ambition in Ning Yu's heart, this is the biggest insult to him, so in the past, Ning Yu often didn't need to convince Cui Wancai, but today it is because he understands that Cui Wancai needs to be advised even more.
"The minister thinks that none of His Majesty's thoughts and thoughts are not conducive to the world, none of them are not very beneficial to the common people, and all of them are focused on the future, and all the conditions are such meritorious deeds for the dawn of the common people......"
In the main hall, everyone was a little shocked when they heard this, could it be that Shousuke had finally changed his mind, otherwise why was he so praised?
But in the blink of an eye, he saw that Cui Wancai's expression had not changed at all, and he still looked calm and dignified, and the emperor Ning Yu, who was sitting on the throne, did not show the slightest joy and complacency on his face.
Sure enough, Cui Wancai quickly changed the conversation and said in a low voice: "But does Your Majesty also need to think about it?" Can we blindly use long-term strategies to govern the world? Can we just use urgent measures? Is this really the best for the world? β
Boom β
A spring thunder exploded from outside the hall, and a light rain also fell, but it was like a light rain in the hearts of the ministers, and almost most of the people bowed their heads deeply, unwilling to face the angry Son of Heaven.
However, contrary to what everyone thought, the emperor did not immediately show his thunder, but fell into deep thought and silence, so that the entire hall did not make the slightest sound, and everyone quietly listened to the sound of wind and rain outside the hall.
After a long time, Ning Yu slowly spoke, and said softly: "Cui Qing, do you know that the heavens have warned me that my Great Chu looks like the dawn of the sun on the surface, and its momentum is unstoppable, just like all dynasties, ushering in its heyday - but it only takes another hundred years, and after another hundred years, the dynasty will cease to exist, and Huaxia will also enter the sinking and changing situation......
"At that time, the Great Chu will be full of internal evils, the people's livelihood will be difficult, the imperial court will also be turbulent, it will be difficult to do useful things, and there will be strong ships and cannons from the west, although you and I here have been in the past, but the world will also fall into an extremely tragic situation......"
Ning Yu stood up and walked to the center of the court, but there was a bit of gloom in his eyes, "On this day, Huaxia Lu Shen, and the Charm and Soul will inevitably wantonly harm the people, but they would not have thought that their fate had already been decided as early as today or even longerβit was decided by you, you and me!" β
The thunder outside the hall continued, the hall was full of clouds, and everyone had a little confusion and unwillingness in their eyes, as the emperor described the prospect was almost like a chaotic world, even Cui Wancai didn't seem to have thought that there would be such a day, he felt that he would be in great pain when he thought about it, so he had to lower his head and sigh lowly.
"Why....... Why is that! β
Ning Yu's eyes showed firmness, and he said in a low voice: "Now that I have laid the foundation of eternity, I only need to build the world of China little by little in the future, and then I will not worry about the disaster of the reversal of the world, and you, and the people of the world, will never suffer such pain again." β
"Can't you take it easy?"
"I also want to slow down, but if one step is slow, one step is slow, and now that the Far East is at a critical time in the struggle, it is not appropriate to slow down."
"If it can be calmer, then the people will not be in turmoil....... The great Chu country is more secure! β
"How can there ever be a stable country? If we blindly seek stability and everyone is slack, what else can be done? β
"Your Majesty! Even if Da Chu does not say that it will be passed down for eternity, he must not repeat the old things of Qin Sui! β
"Boomβ"
A thunderclap suddenly came from the sky, and there was a loud explosion, and the already gloomy sky was as black as ink, but the day was like night, making it impossible to see the truth.
Everyone trembled, almost kneeling directly on the ground, they listened to the words of the emperor and the first assistant, but they never felt that this was the supreme glory of the courtiers, only that it seemed that the day was really dark.
What is the old things of Qin Sui? It is the land of the Second Fall!
If it is placed in the previous dynasty, this sentence alone is enough to make thousands or even tens of thousands of people in different places, corpses accumulate into mountains, and blood flows into rivers, even the people of the world will be silent!
"Bold!"
"Cui Wancai, as a courtier, how can you say such a rebellious remark? Is this your father's way? β
Xue Haiyun, the imperial historian of Zuodu, finally couldn't bear it anymore, he looked at Cui Wancai with a calm face worriedly, and said in a low voice: "Why don't you hurry up and apologize to Your Majesty?" You are a hundred officials, don't make mistakes! β
I have to say that Xue Haiyun, the newly appointed Emperor of the Left Capital, is indeed a square gentleman, even in this environment, what he wants is not to fall into the well, but to hope to pull Cui Wancai, at least not let him die for this sentence!
"Enough!"
Ning Yu didn't seem to be able to bear it anymore, he glared at Xue Haiyun coldly, "I'm not the kind of emperor who can't listen to advice, you don't want to engage in these inconsistencies here, it's still the general constitution that I promoted, and you have forgotten the festival of being a minister?!"
"Minister, the sin deserves death!"
Xue Haiyun knelt down calmly, then took off his official hat, gently put it aside, and said in a low voice: "The minister is really ashamed of his high hopes for His Majesty, and I ask Your Majesty to deal with it strictly, and the minister has no complaints." β
Everyone was immediately stunned, it was still the first assistant Cui Wancai who was in the center of the storm just now, but they didn't expect Xue Haiyun to take the trouble this way, but it was unexpected, some people suddenly showed a little melancholy, and some people gloated in their hearts.
Should! Who made you blind at this time?
Ning Yu glanced at Xue Haiyun, the imperial historian of Zuodu, who was kneeling on the ground, and suddenly felt a little pain in his head, it was impossible for him to dispose of the courtiers he valued like this, otherwise how could he find such a gentleman who was upright?
"Xue Haiyun, don't make a fuss about me here, it's impossible to leave if you want to!"
Ning Yu snorted coldly, "There is a record of the division, Xue Haiyun is not in the court of the Imperial History of the Left Capital, and he has lost the true character of a courtier, so he is ordered to go home to study for a month, and learn what is the way of a courtier!" Everything in the Imperial History Taizhong is temporarily in charge of the Right Capital Imperial History. β
"Minister Xue Haiyun, thank you for Your Majesty's grace, you will definitely be a good student to study behind closed doors and live up to Your Majesty's high expectations."
After all, Xue Haiyun was held high and let go, and ended up going home to study behind closed doors, everyone knew that this was naturally the emperor's benevolence, but for Cui Wancai, the real storm center of this matter, he had to face the emperor's anger.
Everyone couldn't help but look at Cui Wancai, and some of them even began to think about it, should they invite the former first assistant Ning Zhongjing back to continue to be the first assistant?
But from the perspective of Ning Zhongjing's own identity, it is really inappropriate to be the first assistant again, if the court really has this intention, don't say that the emperor is jealous, I'm afraid even the emperor will have opinions, but if Ning Zhongjing can't be the first assistant, he can only let Li Fu come to be the first assistant in advance, and the other ministers in the court have too shallow foundation now.
Whether it is Song Enming, the secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, or Ning Zhonghai, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, they are not qualified to become a hundred officials and courtiers at the moment, and they will need at least ten or even twenty years before they have the opportunity to become the first assistant.
Just when everyone was speculating, Ning Yu actually didn't feel so annoyed in his heart, because he understood a truth, everyone can say nice things, but not everyone has the courage to say bad things, the so-called loyalty is good for deeds, and it is not just an empty word.
Besides, if it was just a sentence about Qin Sui's old story that Ning Yu broke his defenses, wouldn't all the experience he had in these two lives become wasted?
"Teacher, others think that I may kill you, but Teacher, you know that I will not."
Ning Yu spoke slowly, but he swept away all the gloom, "What kind of person I am, you know it in your heart, and why you said these words, I also know it in my heart. β
When the first rays of sunlight after the rain poured into the Fengtian Temple, Cui Wancai's face was already with a warm smile, he looked at the emperor in front of him, and the biggest thought in his heart was actually an emotion called pride.
Only he, Cui Wancai, can educate such a disciple!
Ning Yu sighed softly and said softly, "It is precisely because I understand the teacher's temperament that I know that there are some things that must be persevered...... I believe that a country like this will never repeat the old things of Qin and Sui, and I have such self-confidence! β
"Please also invite the world, please all the people, please all gentlemen, believe in me for thirty years!"
"Thirty years from now, I want to make this world a different place!"
"Thirty years from now, I will give you back a world that you can be proud of from the bottom of your heart!"
.......
"Your Majesty is so bold, in thirty years, you want to let this world be washed?"
Wang Jingqi spread out the newspaper on the table in front of him that still exuded the smell of ink, but his face was a little confused.
This is the confusion he has never had since he became the editor-in-chief of Qingliu Daily.
If it is said that above the court, the person who knows the emperor best is Cui Wancai, the head of the court, but in the rivers and lakes, this person is none other than Wang Jingqi, because only he understands in his heart what kind of person the emperor is.
The most benevolent person, this is Wang Jingqi's heartfelt evaluation of Emperor Ning Yu.
Although Ning Yu has killed nothing since the war, and there are countless souls under the horse's hooves, in Wang Jingqi's eyes, the emperor is a benevolent person.
Benevolence and righteousness are also divided into large and small, if it is said that when the head of the court is assisted Cui Wancai, he can't bear to see the people of the world suffering because of the urgent government of the imperial court, so he has to advise the emperor, and even risked his own life, which can be called a benevolent person in the traditional sense.
However, such benevolence is fragile, even insignificant, because in the long history, there has never been a shortage of benevolent people like this, even if they win the world's reputation, but after all, they cannot change the general trend, and under the washing of time and worldly forces, they will eventually only become the mark of an era.
However, Emperor Ning Yu's benevolence and righteousness are different, he hopes to let the Chinese people completely get rid of the cycle of history, completely solve this mystery that is difficult to solve for thousands of years, and hope that the people can truly get peace and simple happiness in the future, and if he wants to do this, he needs to constantly persecute his people.
To use a very popular analogy, it is as if there is a dilapidated train in front of it that exudes a rotten atmosphere (Wang Jingqi has seen enough trains), and there is a cliff in front of it, but the train is still stubbornly rushing forward, and anyone who dares to stop in front will be knocked down by the train and turned into pulp.
When everyone was still shouting not to add coal and let it drive slower, only Ning Yu jumped into the driver's seat alone, trying his best to change the direction of the train, even at the expense of driving the train away from the original track.
Because the emperor understood that if he continued like this, even if no coal was added, the train would rush to the cliff with its strong inertia, because the direction was simply wrong.......
The only thing that can really save the train is to change the direction in which it is going, even if it deviates from the traditional track! Even if you are completely thrown off the train and killed!
"The world is by no means the world of the emperor alone, but also the world of all the people in the world!"
"As all the people of the world, how can I stand by and let Your Majesty take the risk alone?"
Wang Jingqi's expression was no longer confused, but revealed incomparable firmness, he spread out the rice paper in front of him again, and then used a brush to stain it with thick ink, and wrote lines of text on it.
"Your Majesty is willing to use thirty years of work to reshape my Chinese physique, how can my generation stop it? Not only should we not stop it, but we should take the initiative to solve Your Majesty's troubles and the world's worries, and seek a prosperous era for the people! β
.......
A few days later, the "Qingliu Bao" in Nanjing finally resumed its initial popularity of reporting on the new policy of Da Chu, and almost everyone waved the silver dollar in their hands in order to grab a copy of the latest "Qingliu Bao", and many people even began to read it in the teahouse, in the square, and even on the roadside.
Ning Yu was looking forward to everyone like a dragon, and finally grew a strong seedling, although it was still very small, it had finally experienced the baptism of wind and rain.
