In front of Liu Che, Zhang Yuan quickly put on his clothes.

Although he didn't fool around just now, but after slapping his ass twice in a row, Liu Che's mood finally became beautiful, and his murderous intent gradually receded.

"You shouldn't be busy with Taixue recently, why do you have time to come to Chang'an?"

One of the elements of being an emperor is to open his eyes and tell nonsense, and sadly Zhang Yuan still has to cooperate with him.

A lot of words can't be put on the surface, and this may be the only ambiguous place between the monarch and the minister.

"The minister is incompetent, there was a big incident yesterday, and the minister didn't handle it well.

That matter has been brewing for a day, and today it is a complete outbreak, and Chen originally wanted to quickly cut through the mess and deal with it quickly.

But people are not as good as heaven, and now they can't clean it up, so they came to Chang'an with the heart of asking His Majesty to punish the sins of the ministers. ”

"Tell me what the hell is going on."

Zhang Yuan quickly said the matter briefly, there was no nonsense at all, anyway, Liu Che must know, why did he say it so clearly.

"You're so bold!"

"I don't understand why Your Majesty said that?"

At this time, I can only pretend to be confused.

"Who gave you the power to keep nearly 4,000 students from enrolling?"

"Your Majesty gave it!"

Liu Che's eyes narrowed and nodded, Okay, what you said is good.

"I'm delegating power to you, but I'm not letting you harm Taixue."

"Your Majesty's words are wrong, the minister is sincere, and everything he does is for Taixue."

"Then do you know how much damage this will have to the official school charter that has just been promulgated in the world?"

"Heavy medicine is needed for scabies, and heavy canons are needed in troubled times!

His Majesty's original intention in establishing Taixue was to purge the rule of the government, but when the statute of the official school was just promulgated, it was also the first time that Taixue played its role.

Some people standing in the dark corners want to pick peaches, and the ministers are safeguarding the interests of the Han and the interests of His Majesty.

With the great wisdom of those who have never been before or since, you will surely be able to find that those people do not value the position of a minister at all, but to further strengthen the power of dialogue between Confucianism and imperial power. ”

Liu Che really began to think deeply, but he didn't realize that Zhang Yuan was completely avoiding the important and trivial.

Don't say anything about real things, and say as much as it involves others.

To be honest, hiding behind the scenes in Du County, he couldn't imagine that Zhang Yuan would come up at this level, and he really just wanted to ruin Zhang Yuan's reputation, and then Taixue ordered this position to be replaced.

Even Dong Zhongshu did not realize the need to strengthen the position of Confucianism until he could talk to the imperial power on an equal footing.

And it wasn't until Dong Zhongshu found out later that it was too late, after all, he was old, and who could be a big man now in terms of age with Liu Che.

As soon as Dong Zhongshu died, Confucianism did not have any outstanding figures.

Later, most of the young talents that Liu Che reused were the same as the master father, but they used Confucianism as a cloak to cover their true purpose.

Even cool officials like Zhang Tang said that they were Confucian disciples, but you can imagine what other people are like.

"According to what you say, you are planning to establish your authority, so you broke the jar and broke it, so that you want to let the Confucian students in Taixue retreat?"

Liu Che's questioning of this sentence proves that he began to worry that the power of Confucianism will grow stronger and stronger in the future, and may even really reach the point where it can threaten the imperial power, as Zhang Yuan said.

What Qin Shi Huang did was to set the tone of unification for the Chinese nation, as long as it is not a unified state, then it is a divided state.

This led to the fact that future generations paid the price of blood again and again in order to unify the whole of China, that is, they could not give up any land, not even a square meter of land.

And why is Liu Che so successful? He has been fighting all his life to expand China's territory, and no matter what his purpose is, from his beginning, the Chinese or Han people can stand on the Tianshan Mountains, stand on the northeast plain, stand in Southeast Asia, stand on the vast steppes of Inner Mongolia in the north and say the last word.

The land under my feet has belonged to China since ancient times!

This is called a thousand years of work!

Now Liu Che's goal is to take all the power of the Han Dynasty to himself, in order to establish a centralized state, in order to let the whole world have only one voice, Liu Che can not be a benevolent and peaceful emperor, fierce and violent is necessary, but also have a clear mind.

The emperor of the Song Dynasty was benevolent and moral, and the economy was booming, but what about the backbone? What about the backbone of the nation?

Only by being ruthless to foreigners, to one's own people, and even more ruthless to oneself can a great dynasty be achieved.

Zhang Yuan directly pulled the original cause of the matter to the fact that Confucianism was not satisfied with his current status and wanted to compete for power and profit.

100% can make Liu Che ignore the little 'little mistakes' he made.

"Yes, since Your Majesty did not let the scholars be the Taixue Order, but let the minister take the position of Taixue Ling, and let King Wuqiu Shou serve as Taixue Cheng, and Mei Gao as the county commander of Du County.

Chen has the courage to guess His Majesty's thoughts, Your Majesty, your purpose should be to want us to suppress the Confucianism that will increase in number in the future with the power in our hands.

If the position of Taixue Ling is given to a real Confucian student, not to mention in a short period of time, I am afraid that within three or five years, there will be a scene in Du County. ”

"What sight?"

"I only know Confucius but I don't know Your Majesty!"

"What?"

Liu Che slapped the desk hard, then bent down to stare at Zhang Yuan.

It was as if Zhang Yuan would guide the people of Du County to do so.

"Your Majesty, don't think that this is alarmist.

This time Du County, can't Your Majesty still see it clearly?

The minister did not investigate who was behind the scenes, but it was certain that it was definitely not Dong Zhongshu, this person was in Taixue.

It may be a doctor of the Pentateuch, or it may be any lecturer, but no matter who it is, with their strength alone, they almost made a minister and a doctor notorious.

Your Majesty, think about it, if it is really a real Confucian behind the scenes, even if the minister has thousands of mouths, he can't say that there are Confucian scholars in the world.

This time, the minister directly used the power given to him by His Majesty to forcibly suppress nearly 4,000 Confucian students, and it was also a last resort.

If he didn't do this, he would use other methods, and in the end he would have to compromise with those Confucian scholars, and then retire from his current position, and maybe he would be convicted and imprisoned. ”

Zhang Yuan didn't know how bad Liu Che would have a bad impression of Confucianism if he said this today, nor did he know how these remarks would affect the history of the next few thousand years.

He only knew that a Confucian disciple made a move, and if he didn't follow, wouldn't he look down on the other party.

For such a long time, Zhang Yuan has always had a respectful attitude towards Confucian scholars, if you don't provoke me, I won't provoke you.

Moreover, Zhang Yuan knew that he and Gongsun Hong and Dong Zhongshu were not of the same grade at all, so he never thought of being hostile to them, and even helped Gongsun Hong.

But Gongsun Hong's old man took advantage of Zhang Yuan once, which is equivalent to owing Zhang Yuan a favor.

Throughout the ages, the most difficult thing to repay is personal debt.

This is also one of Zhang Yuan's small hole cards in the face of Confucianism, and when the time comes, he really tears his face and hardens his face, so he runs to Gongsun Hong to shout Big Brother.

Every time Zhang Yuan threw out a bunch of tirades, Liu Che had to bow his head and ponder for a while, and the successive messages made him a little unable to digest them.

"Then are you sure that you can stay in the position of Taixue Ling and be able to suppress those Confucian students all the time?"

Liu Che really didn't think that Zhang Yuan had this ability, and now it is only more than 3,000 Confucian rebels, and Taixue is a three-year system.

If this continues every year, not to mention how many more people will increase in the future, it is possible that there will be 10,000 Confucian students in Taixue at the same time.

There are so many people, everyone can try to rebel.

"I can't suppress it."

？？？

Then what about Nima!

Liu Che couldn't wait to pull out the sword on the sword frame and stab Zhang Yuan a few times.

"But Your Majesty can."

You can't finish it in one sitting, can you?

Liu Che looked at the sword frame on the side, and there were still a few steps to walk over, so it was easier to use the jade seal on the desk to directly smash Zhang Yuan to death.

"Let's talk about it, I don't have the energy to keep staring at this small place of Taixue.

If you can't, I'll change somebody. ”

"As long as Your Majesty does not punish the ministers this time, outsiders will be able to appreciate Your Majesty's importance and trust in the ministers, so they will not dare to act rashly!

If Your Majesty turns to support the minister, the minister will be Your Majesty's spokesperson in Taixue, and whatever the minister does, they will feel that this is His Majesty's intention, so they will be afraid! ”

In short, I can't suffer, as for what other people think in their hearts, I have nothing to do with the rain.

Zhang Yuan definitely didn't say this sentence, and if he said it, he was looking for death.

"Spokesperson?"

Forehead...

"It's the meaning of the messenger of the Son of Heaven, but you don't need Your Majesty to give you talismans and tokens, just let everyone feel it."

"It's funny.

Eh, something is not right, you told me that it was Confucianism who made trouble for the sake of power.

But what are you doing now? Now it's not enough for you to say a word in Taixue, and you still want to make others afraid of you? ”

Zhang Yuan sometimes really doesn't like to talk to smart people, how can he reverse so quickly.

Your Majesty, the minister is really dedicated to the Han and you!

"Your Majesty, this is different.

Others are not afraid of the minister, but afraid of you standing behind the minister.

In addition, in addition to having a good relationship with the imperial servants, the ministers did not have the habit of forming parties and running private interests in the court, nor did they have any entanglements of interests.

Even your most trusted servant, Your Majesty, has an indissoluble relationship with some of the most powerful ministers in the court, as well as with you.

Other ministers dare not guarantee that the minister alone can say that he is a lonely minister.

Your Majesty, if you trust the minister, there will be power in the hands of the minister, and once your Majesty does not trust the minister, no one will oppose it if you want to take back the power in the hands of the minister, whether it is the inner or outer court.

If you let those Confucian scholars hold the power, once something happens, there will be a bunch of people standing behind them, unlike the ministers, and there is no one behind the ministers. ”

After Zhang Yuan finished speaking, he said sorry to Wei Qing, Gongsun Hong and Princess Pingyang from the bottom of his heart.

The situation is stronger than people, and if you don't talk nonsense, your life will not be guaranteed.

"That's right.

If I want to kill you, it's as easy as pinching an ant to death. ”

You're the ant!!

"Your Majesty is right, the minister is an ant, and Your Majesty is a dragon in the sky."

"Okay, I don't care about the things in Taixue, but you shouldn't go too far.

The Taixue side hall caught fire, and all the candidates' exam papers were burned, which seems quite strange.

I heard that when the fire was burning, there was no one in the side hall, and there were palace guards outside the hall. ”

When Zhang Yuan just told Liu Che what had happened, he only said that there was a fire in the side hall, but he didn't say anything that there was no one, and there were people guarding outside.

I also heard that listening to the Nai Nai is a leg.

No, even though this guy is dead, he is also a ruthless guy.

Empress Dowager Dou, don't care about what you said just now, your old man is in the sky, it's all like a kid farting.

"What are you thinking?"

"Huh? Oh.

The minister was also thinking about the fire in the side hall. ”

"You also think something is wrong?"

"I don't think so."

"And what do you think?"

"The fire was put by the minister, and the minister didn't feel strange at all."

Zhang Yuan not only set fire, but also played with fire!
