Chapter 159: Monarchs and Ministers Work Together
Emperor Chongzhen used to be stubborn and self-serving, but he was not a fool. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoHe knows that to carry out such a super cultural project, cultural accumulation and a rich material foundation are indispensable. After thousands of years, the cultural accumulation is placed there, but looking at the territory of the Ming Dynasty under his actual control, only Daning is qualified and financially qualified to support this super project today.
The emperor is not a saint, an opportunity to be an emperor through the ages is alive in front of him, he can't refuse, and there is no reason to refuse.
Emperor Chongzhen wanted to hear whether Guan Shanyue's request was reasonable before being carried away by fame and fortune, "Aiqing said, I will pardon you first." We monarchs and ministers should know everything from each other, and everything can be discussed. As long as your requests are not excessive, I will do it. ”
Guan Shanyue has always believed that the compilation of the "Siku Quanshu" is an unprecedented cultural catastrophe of Chinese civilization, and there are far more banned and destroyed than included, and those included are all tampered with and abridged castrated versions, which have lost their due cultural value. Ideologically, it is a "cancerous change" of the main body of Chinese civilization, a criminal evidence of the destruction of the entire ancient civilization, a far-reaching negative impact on modern China, and a direct source of the complete collapse of the traditional civilization caused by the lack of beneficial ancient cultural traditions in the process of rebuilding modernity in modern China, and the most complete destruction of the Chinese civilization with the Han nationality as the main body by the rulers of the Qing Dynasty.
He nodded and breathed a long sigh of relief, just now he was afraid that Emperor Chongzhen would not agree, so he said solemnly: "There is only one suggestion from the minister, that is, in the process of compilation, the Holy Lord must give the scribes real freedom, and the Holy Lord is not allowed to use the excuse of maintaining his rule to ban and obstruct ancient books. It is even more important not to take the opportunity to ban and destroy or tamper with ancient books and to create a literary prison. ”
Emperor Chongzhen was stunned, with thousands of thoughts in his heart, he waved his sleeves violently, and said magnificently: "I didn't look away, Aiqing is not a showman, but a real Chinese scholar." 'For the sake of the saints, continue to learn, and open peace for all generations' is talking about hard-headed people like you. In the past, you told me that the Ming Dynasty is not the Ming Dynasty of my own people, and this culture is not the culture of my own people. I don't want to leave a bunch of worthless dross, so that future generations will poke at my backbone and scold me, I don't think it would be as good as preserving it among the people, I'm right! ”
Guan Shanyue's heart was full of excitement, and she bowed to the end with tears in her eyes, the rise of a nation requires the development of culture and art in addition to the progress of science and technology. ”
Emperor Chongzhen has never done things so vigorously, he was a little embarrassed by Guan Shanyue's praise, and said ashamedly: "I am not Mingjun, if Mingjun I am not this broken appearance." In order to prevent Yang Sichang from making an obstacle in the matter of repairing the book, Lao Aiqing bothered a lot. I will issue a special decree stating that Aiqing is solely responsible for this matter. It's just that I don't know if Aiqing has a suitable idea for the specific operation of this matter? ”
Guan Shanyue groaned slightly, raised her head with blazing eyes and said: "Just like the "Yongle Canon", the naming right of this book belongs to the saint, and the minister has an immature suggestion to divide the book into four parts: sub, history, scripture, and collection, in order to express his ambition to cover the book of the world, I don't know if the saint thinks it is good to call it "Chongzhen Siku Quanshu"? ”
This move was in the heart of Emperor Chongzhen, he nodded with satisfaction, and said happily: "If you are so deeply heartfelt, just do what Aiqing said." The library is called the Siku Library, the name of the library is written, the place is solved by you, and the compilation, copying, and engraving personnel are recruited by you. ”
Guan Shanyue was grateful, knowing that Emperor Chongzhen was repaying the favor and giving him a chance to go down in history. He himself held the two large characters of "Chongzhen Siku Quanshu" and "Siku Pavilion" written by Emperor Chongzhen's imperial pen, and the soldiers who followed behind him held the imperial wine, and returned to the Governor's Mansion with joy to start preparing for this matter.
Daning's propaganda machine was in full swing, Zhang Caimiao's pen was full of flowers, and the "Daming Daily" launched an overwhelming propaganda, and the news of Emperor Chongzhen's edict to open the "Erudite Macro Words" section and the opening of the Siku Museum in February of the fourth year of Chongzhen was "suddenly like a night of spring breeze, and thousands of trees and pear blossoms bloomed." The speed spread all over the country.
The corporal of the world was moved when they heard the wind, whether it was a recent offspring or a great Confucian who heard the Tao, all of them were in high spirits, ready to try, eager to try. Even those who were dissatisfied with Emperor Chongzhen's concept of governing the country and were once depressed in the officialdom and had no ambition to place their love on the mountains and rivers also intended to come out of their inner world and be reborn.
In addition to the emperor in the real world, the "Taoist system" that lasts for thousands of years is the "emperor" who really makes them bow their heads and be loyal.
The eternal Taoist lineage, which has been passed down from hand to mouth for thousands of years, contains unrivaled power. The revision of the Siku Quanshu carries the banner of continuing the Taoist system, which is a historical monument, and it can be famous through the ages if you join it, which is like a spell that makes the people of the world unable to refuse.
Guan Shanyue seized this opportunity, and after discussing with Emperor Chongzhen, he printed the registration form of the "Erudite Hongci" section on the "Daming Daily", and then put an anti-counterfeiting seal on the shore, which was pushed to the tuyere of this whirlwind. In the past, no one cared about the Jiangnan and could only circulate in the area north of Beijing, but the "Daming Daily" has turned into a hot sweet and fragrant dumpling.
Since it was profitable, there were people who promoted the spread of this newspaper for free. Some nimble Shandong people, ignoring King Fu's ban, secretly entered Beijing through the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and then went north to Daning, and started the business of smuggling the "Daming Daily", which can be regarded as making money every day.
The people outside the four northern provinces discovered that the land of the four provinces was not the bitter cold land of the government's propaganda, on the contrary, where the victims of the disaster had lived a happier and healthier life than them through their own industrious hands.
Along with it came soap, soap, steam engines, steam looms, new agricultural tools, hybrid rice, glass, silver mirrors, glasses...... and so on a dazzling array of new things.
Guan Shanyue simply opened up a new world for them, a beautiful new world.
King Fu was flustered, he is now being led by the nose by Emperor Chongzhen, you have to go or not, it is a matter of life and death, which makes him have to follow. As a last resort, he can only effectively enforce the law now Emperor Chongzhen also compiled the Siku Quanshu to have a glimmer of life to retain the heart of the world, so he must strive to be ahead of his nephew.
It's just that things are far worse than he thought, and all kinds of problems come one after another in the panic.
