Luoyang Reading Museum

Since Zhuge Liang took office, there have been great changes in the Reading Museum, in the past, books were piled up on the case of the inner house, some people want to flip through, they have to go in and look for them one by one, especially cumbersome, Zhuge Liang thought it was so inappropriate, so he classified the books, and divided them into agricultural mulberry, law, and counting, of course, there are also poems, and the genus of politics.

Perhaps he felt that he was a little tired from kneeling and reading, so he got Hu Chair and Hu Case from Hongdu Menxue, and presented it to the Reading Library, and the previous classification was just that, and his move to get Hu Chair was criticized by many scholars.

While they cursed these barbarian things, they sat comfortably and flipped through the books.

Zhuge Liang ignored them, sat in the innermost layer and read, and the rest of the things were handed over to the little officials to execute, here, he came into contact with a lot of books, many of which he had never touched, some of which made him admire and admire, and some of which made him not very happy, but no matter what type it was, he would read it carefully and accumulate it.

"Zhuge Jun, I don't know where the "Four Peoples Moon Order" is?"

"The Seventh Case of Three Houses."

"Jun !! Where is the "Han Law Judge" and ?!?!? ”

"One house, second case... Also, if you say another word, I will call the guards and drive you out! ”

"Zhuge Jun, I'm looking for "Political Commentary".

Zhuge Liang raised his head and stood in front of him, smiling Isn't it Cao Cao? Zhuge Liang stood up and bowed, no matter what he thought of Cao Cao in his heart, Cao Cao was the third prince of the country, and the etiquette on the bright side must be followed. Cao Cao was a little puzzled and asked, "Who is it?" ”

"Exactly down there."

Cao Cao nodded, didn't say much, and sat next to Zhuge Liang.

"Gong Cao, do you want to watch it first?"

"No, I've seen it a few times... Every time I flip through it, I can always find the great wisdom of Cui Gong... Cui Gong's talent, I really admire it. It's a pity, it's a pity that I can't talk to him at night..."Cao Cao said, Zhuge Liang nodded, and was about to speak, but a person next to him said: "This is not bad!!! ”

Zhuge Liang and Cao Cao were startled and turned their heads, but the man smiled a little embarrassedly, quickly lowered his head, and continued to read.

"Zhang Jun, if you say anything more... You need to be rude..."

Cao Cao said with a smile: "Even Cui Gong's disciples are so extraordinary! ”

"Is Liu Gongke okay? Is there any news of him? Cao Cao asked again.

"Shijun is fine, there is no news from Jiaozhou... However, Yangzhou assassinated the Son of Heaven and impeached Shijun, saying that the people of Yangzhou died and handed over to the state, and Shijun refused to hand it over, hoping that His Majesty would severely punish him. ”

"Hahaha, it seems that Duke Liu has governed Jiaozhou well, but it's a pity that he is so talented, but he is entrusted to live in the border plug..."

"Cao Gong, compared with these bombastic ministers in the court, it is not a pity that my master will rule the border and benefit one side." Zhuge Liang replied, Cao Cao knew that he was speechless, smiled in a low voice, and replied: "Yes." Zhuge Liang didn't say anything more, and continued to read his book, Cao Cao was silent for a moment, sitting on the Hu chair, and a trace of tiredness appeared on his face.

"Kong Ming, if Gong Liu is still in the temple, will he support the new policy?"

"Probably not."

"Why?"

"Shijun doesn't like to argue with people."

"That's..."Cao Cao nodded, Zhuge Liang looked at Cao Cao in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Cao Gong, my master often says, things are in the name, no matter who you do, whatever you do, you have to do it in a certain name... And the more great the name, the smoother things will be..."

"Oh?" Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, looked at Zhuge Liang, and asked, "Do you think the new deal is nameless?" The matter of the new deal is for the sake of the world and for the sake of thousands of people, how can it be nameless? ”

Zhuge Liang shook his head, lowered his head, and said no more.

Cao Cao looked at him for a long time, and suddenly woke up, he grinned, looked at Zhuge Liang meaningfully, and said in a low voice: "Thank you!" Then, he left the Reading Hall, Zhuge Liang still lowered his head, looked at his book, and ignored Cao Cao.

Cao Cao walked out of the Reading Hall, and then went all the way back to his mansion, and then, for three whole days, he was closed, I don't know what he was doing, and on the fourth day, he walked out of the mansion and went directly to the palace, which was not a lot of people who paid attention to his whereabouts, and they were a little worried in their hearts, for fear that he would come up with some way to target them.

When he arrived at the palace, the guards immediately announced that it was not long before the Yellow Gate came to pick him up.

When he arrived at the Hall of Houde, the Son of Heaven was dealing with the recitals from all over the place.

Cao Cao stood at the door, the Son of Heaven did not raise his head, and said directly: "Sit!" Cao Cao sat in front of the Son of Heaven, who was busy for a long time, then raised his head, sighed, looked at Cao Cao, and asked, "What, has the new deal progressed?" ”

"Your Majesty... I have come up with a way to reduce the deterrence of the New Deal! ”

"Oh? What is the strategy? ”

"Your Majesty, the scholars of the country oppose the New Deal, because the New Deal endangers their interests and prevents them from owning a large amount of arable land, but they dare not say this explicitly, they are all virtuous and virtuous, how can they oppose the New Deal for the sake of this? There is only one reason for their opposition, and that is that the New Deal does not value meritocracy..."

"They refer to themselves as virtuous, and use their ministers as their instigation to instigate Your Majesty, and stay away from the treacherous people of the sages."

"And as long as Your Majesty breaks their name, they can't continue to oppose it!"

"Oh? How to break it? ”

"Naturally, it is to reflect the temple's emphasis on meritocracy, and its desire... Previously, I went to visit the late Sikong Yuan Gong, Yuan Gong once said that if the scholars do not object, one is famous, and the other is profitable, and now, I have just woken up! Cao Cao said, the Son of Heaven frowned, motioned for him to continue, Cao Cao said again: "Not long ago, I chatted with the emperor's son-in-law for a long time...."

"Heh, what can that kid say!" When the Son of Heaven heard Zhuge Liang, his face was a little annoyed.

"Cough, Your Majesty, nowadays, there are more and more students in the world, the second courtyard of the north and south is newly established, Taixue, Menzixue, tens of thousands of students are studying... In order to demonstrate the temple's determination to value talents, the minister thought that the taxes of these students could be reduced, and the head of the family, as long as there were students who entered the four universities, would reduce their agricultural taxes accordingly, and subsidize these students, until their studies were completed..."

"This is the benefit, giving them benefits, and at the same time, it can show the temple's determination to value talents."

"In addition, for those scholars with outstanding learning, they can be given a plaque of the portal, which is the name, and they will enjoy this honor, and there will be no more refutation."

"And the most important thing is that this can break their unscrupulous words, they all say, the matter of the new deal, disrespectful to talents, Your Majesty ordered this, can make them speechless!"

When the Son of Heaven heard this, there was no joy on his face, and he said, "Mengde... If we act like this, won't the students take over from the family in the future, continue to annex the cultivated land, and oppress the people? ”

"Your Majesty...."Cao Cao paused and said, "Even so, it will take thirty or forty years for the students to become powerful... In these days, the new policy has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and has become a foregone conclusion.... At that time, we tried to find a way to restrain these students, not to mention, now that the government and schools are all around, Liu Xuande is still busy with this... The number of students is increasing... The privileges they have will surely be shattered..."

"Everyone in the world reads, who is the farmer?"

"Your Majesty, agriculture is not a cheap business... The official school was established, and the ministers wanted to copy and deliver a large number of agricultural books, in addition, they also wanted the Confucians to write heavy agricultural endowments and the like, and the young children of the world learned from an early age. What's more, studying and farming are not opposites, although there are many students, there are few people who have obtained official qualifications, and the rest of them, if they don't want to starve to death with books, they must have to farm... Your Majesty need not worry! ”

Listening to Cao Cao say this, the face of the Son of Heaven was still a little hesitant, he knew in his heart that the new deal was an unprecedented innovation, if it could succeed, it would immediately change the general trend since ancient times, each generation of kings was trying to limit the big clans, and in solving the problem of annexing land, some were milder, and they would negotiate with the big clans to let the big clans give up some arable land and hand it over to the people.

Others, in order to solve this problem in other ways, have carried out large-scale tuntian fields to allow the people to obtain arable land.

However, none of these can really solve the problem, because, the Son of Heaven has noticed that most of the cultivated land reclaimed during the Jianning period has been quietly transferred to the hands of the big clans, of course, they dare not take violent means, through purchases, for example, the floods in Youzhou, the people's cultivated land was destroyed, and there was no harvest, and the big clans exchanged grain for their arable land.

Among them, there are also those who collude with local officials to obtain arable land by force, but most of those who act in this way are powerful and powerful, not families.

During the Jianning period, there were countless fields, and the people had their own cultivated land, which was less than ten years, and these cultivated land became the cultivated land of the great clans, which was something that made the Son of Heaven particularly angry, and the implementation of the new policy was to fundamentally restrict the family and family, and to change this situation, as long as it was successful, their descendants would no longer have to worry about the family.

The Son of Heaven thought for a moment and said, "Okay, just do as you say!" ”

Cao Cao bowed his hand and left the palace.

Many people say that today's son is not a Ming Jun, he is really short-tempered, he does not have the calmness of Emperor Xiaokang, nor his mind, as a minister who has personally seen Emperor Xiaokang, Cao Cao also has his own views on this, the Son of Heaven is indeed inferior to Emperor Xiaokang in some aspects, but when today's son, it may not be a Ming Jun!

Although the Son of Heaven has a violent temper, he is still very gentle to the people, and Xiping is benevolent, but it is far more than in the Jianning period.

Although the Son of Heaven is not calm, but he has a different kind of fierceness, unlike the cautious Emperor Xiaokang, when the Son of Heaven, as long as he feels that this matter is very possible, he will immediately implement it, completely regardless of how many ministers will oppose, and in this regard, he is still extremely sensitive, for some novel policies, he can also smell the advantages, and then implement them.

This is a son of heaven who doesn't like to be constrained, he can accept new ideas, and can accept new things.

Do you think Emperor Xiaokang will sit on the chair to deal with political affairs?

Emperor Xiaokang can fully promote some novel affairs, and the whole country will make what kind of weaving machine, overturning car, etc.?

Cao Cao even felt that if Emperor Xiaokang saw these unprecedented performances of his own, he would definitely find a doctor for himself to see a brain disease, instead of waving his hand and letting himself deal with it with all his powers.

Thinking about this, Cao Cao walked out of the palace and stopped.

Turning around, in the direction of the Houde Temple, he bowed to him.

Perhaps, the Son of Heaven was not reckless.

It's this big man, and today he needs a reckless son of heaven.

In this chaotic situation, he can cut a way out.
