Sun Xiangfu really did not disappoint Li Shimin, before, he deliberately let the courtiers finish what they wanted to say, so that when he finally came out to make a concluding speech, no one raised objections.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is a wrong concept to distinguish scholars from farmers and businessmen, and just now, there were even ministers who said that they should maintain the majesty of the group of scholars who may become officials in the future, but the minister thought that this was a big mistake.

In the past, those dynasties that relied on power and majesty to govern the people are now at peace?

The relationship between the imperial court and the people should be a symbiotic and interdependent relationship, rather than a relationship of exploitation and exploitation.

As a minister, do you like a man who often takes away the fruits of your labor in vain, and directs you to do this and that, and needs you to grovel to serve?

"No, it won't."

"Everyone doesn't want to be like this, so in history, there have been so many officials who have forced the people to rebel, and the demise of the former Sui is an example in front of us, do we want to repeat the mistakes of the past?"

"I don't think so."

"Moreover, our Majesty has found a completely different path, he loves the people, is close to the people, and puts the people first in everything, so last year, when His Majesty toured the north and passed by the place, the local people have brought the melons and fruits produced in their fields to His Majesty's car, and asked His Majesty to try it.

At the end of the northern tour, hundreds of thousands of people in Shanyang went out of the city to send dozens of miles, reluctantly, and spontaneously contributed money and efforts to build the Shanyang Palace for His Majesty, hoping that His Majesty could often go to Shanyang to live.

Will such people rebel against His Majesty and the court?

Absolutely not.

And to do this, does Your Majesty rely on power and majesty?

Definitely not.

This fully proves that the imperial court should not rely on power and majesty to manage the people.

As the saying goes, the officials love the people, the people support the officials, the king loves the people, and the people support the king. ”

"Okay, Sun Zhengming's words are very good······"

"A good official loves the people, the people support the officials, the king loves the people, and the people support the king······"

When Sun Xiangfu finished speaking, Fang Xuanling, Li Jing, and even old people like Yu Shinan cheered for him.

Li Shimin, who was on the dragon chair, at this moment, was even more moved with moist eyes, such a straightforward recognition and praise, and also won the applause of so many ministers in the court, so that his sense of accomplishment suddenly burst, at this time, how much he wanted Li Yuan of Changle Palace to come to the court to see this scene! Even, he now regrets killing his eldest brother Li Jiancheng and third brother Li Yuanji, so he should let them live and see this scene in the court today.

After the applause of the ministers, Sun Xiangfu continued, "Therefore, scholars who may become officials should not give people a feeling of superiority, but should be close to the people and love the people. Moreover, the minister thought that the scholars were only scholars who represented the common people, and there was no essential difference between them and farmers, craftsmen, merchants, and doctors, and they were all people, so the civic system implemented by the imperial court before was classified as second-class citizens.

Only when they are really officials will they be different from ordinary people, because if officials want to manage the people, they must have some power, and it is entirely because of the need to govern the country that officials are given certain privileges.

Scholars do not participate in the management of the state, and the state does not have the need to empower them, so why should the education of scholars be superior to others?

In terms of contributions to the country, farmers, craftsmen, and businessmen are not necessarily less than scholars, and everyone has seen this in recent years.

Therefore, the minister believed that the imperial court should not only incorporate the education of the three major groups of agriculture and industry into the education management system of the imperial court, but also reaffirm to the people that the division of agriculture and industry is only the division of the people's occupations, not the division of status and status, and the policy of treating all people in different occupations equally, so that people in all occupations will not have a feeling of oppression. ”

The meaning of Sun Xiangfu's words is actually very simple, since Shinong and industrialists are all second-class citizens, why are you in charge of the education of scholars, enjoy state treatment, but there are no other professions.

You said that after the scholars have completed their studies, they will become officials, and now, after the other three professions have been completed, they will also become officials, and besides, not all of you scholars have to become officials, and you cannot elevate the status of all the people in this profession because some of them are going to become officials, which is unreasonable, and we should rationally distinguish the difference between the management class and the ordinary people, and before becoming officials, we must not treat them differently and cause dissatisfaction among other professional groups.

For Li Shimin, this problem is also a kind of social balance problem that needs to be solved, and if the people want to agree with the civic system in their hearts, they should gradually implement these systems in all aspects, and this kind of equal treatment seems to be the most balanced means for all occupational groups.

"Sun Qing said that the great good, if you want to achieve an immortal country, there should be a more fair and reasonable system, any professional class, before becoming an official, should only be the people, for the people, the imperial court should adopt the policy of treating everyone equally, is, I will, the future establishment of agriculture, industry, business school, into the imperial court education management system, responsible for the management of the official grade, authority, to Guozijian and Shanyang Medical College as a comparison, specific division and implementation, by the Ministry of Shangshu Wen Yanbo follow-up."

Li Shimin announced that this matter could not be changed, and his amiability to the people was a political need. In the official's place, he is going farther and farther on the road of power, and after cleaning up the five surnames and seven families, in the court, as long as he makes a decision, he basically has to implement it to the letter.

After Wen Yanbo came out to lead the decree and sang the promise, the issue of education came to an end for the time being, this can only be regarded as an episode of today's court meeting, no matter how unwilling Kong Yingda is, this general trend is not something he can control alone, he can only control the matter of the one acre and three points of land in the Guozijian.

First, Li Shimin announced that he would reinstate Du Ruhui, the secretary of the military department, and he had recovered from his body, and it would be a big waste not to come out to do things for the country, of course, he did not revoke Hou Junji's title of secretary of the military department, in fact, those who hung up the title of secretary of the military department, as well as Li Jing, Qin Qiong, Li Ji, Li Daozong, etc., this is to give them a certain right to transfer troops, at some times, it is convenient for them to go through some approval procedures, and after reinstatement, There is a big difference between Du Ruhui, who is a full-time secretary of the Ministry of War.

When announcing Du Ruhui's appointment, Li Shimin also directly announced all the things he was responsible for after taking office, overseeing the affairs of the military department, being responsible for the logistics and supply of Yaozhou, Shanzhou, and the army that may be sent to Shuzhong later, and the work of dispatching troops.

The army of the Eastern Expedition will be led by Sun Xiangfu to preside over the logistics and supply work alone in Shanyang.

After that, Li Shimin also made some specific appointments and adjustments to the distribution of troops led by General Zhuwei.

In the end, he asked all the officials to complete the last task before the oath to go on the expedition, to harvest the summer grain for military supplies.

However, just when everyone thought that today's morning dynasty was coming to an end, Sun Xiangfu came out again and said, "Your Majesty, last night, Zhang Leqiujin, the general of Yunnan Town, brought a letter from Xiao Gong to ask to see Yu Chen, and wanted to do a Zen move, and give the position of the king of Baizi Kingdom to Shelong, the leader of the first part of the Mengshe Zhao Department under the Bai Clan. ”

Yunnan, in the image of people in this period, is a wild land, not from the ministers of Shuzhong, and they don't even know about Zhang Le Qiujin and Bai Ziguo, Li Shimin is vigilant enough about the surrounding forces of the Tang Dynasty, and judging from the situation of some Yunnan tribes that were passed down by the secret guards before, Li Shimin treats it as a potential hidden danger in the Tang Dynasty.

Because, the tribes over there are deeply influenced by the Nanban culture, and have close contacts with Tibet, and there are fewer pro-Han forces, on the contrary, there are more disobedience to the king, and the friction with the surrounding Han people has never been broken, even in Lingnan, which has been ruled by the Han people for so long, it is still the case, not to mention Yunnan.

At that time, it actually made him secretly happy for a while, and he did not hesitate to seal him the title of Yunnan town guard general, but he didn't expect that it was only a few years before he was going to Zen position.

After Li Shimin read Xiao Yu's handwritten letter, he handed it over to the ministers to circulate, and after a while, the people above the court basically knew the content of the letter.

After Xiao Yu went to Shuzhong, he actively promoted the trade between the Yunnan tribes and Tubo, which was something he had agreed with Sun Xiangfu before, and with the development of some communication, he knew more about the basic situation of the Yunnan tribes, that is a place with great market potential, the Bai nationality of Baizi Kingdom alone, the population is eight or nine hundred thousand, if you add the population of other tribes in the western part of Yunnan, there are one million or hundreds of thousands, and they have a large demand for goods.

However, the goods produced in Shuzhong in the past could not be sold in large quantities there, or in other words, the merchants in Shuzhong were not willing to sell to that side at all, in addition to the difficult roads over there and the living conditions that made it a little difficult for the Han people to adapt, the main problem was the problem of public security.

Merchants who go over there will be robbed seven or eight times out of ten, and who wants to go there?

In this way, it is even more important for Bai Ziguo, a pro-Han regime, in Xiao Yu's view, it is the only help for the Tang Dynasty to open up the situation in Yunnan, and it must be properly handled and utilized.

Therefore, he suggested that Li Shimin agree with Zhang Le's Zen concession, and give the newly superior Shelong some support to help open up the situation from the inside.
