Chapter 160: Misfortune Leads to the East
Do it when you think of it, this is Zhang Lingyang's consistent behavior.
The next morning, after Zhang Lingyang announced his decision, Zheng Yongji and others, who had been frowning for many days, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
And the great Confucians in the Hanlin Academy have become frowning and worried.
At this time, a royal historian came out to advise: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks this matter is inappropriate!"
The elders of the Hanlin Academy are all erudite and have always been clean and self-conscious.
If His Majesty insists on doing so, he is afraid that he will tarnish the name of the bosses. ”
"What is there to tarnish this?"
Zhang Lingyang waved his hand and said with a disapproving smile: "What Zheng Aiqing and others have encountered these days, I think all of you Aiqing have heard of it...... I won't say any more. ”
Seeing Zheng Yongji looking at him with embarrassment, his eyes full of begging, Zhang Lingyang didn't say anything more about them.
Zhang Lingyang continued: "If these women who come in and offer them back to Wara, I'm afraid it won't be very suitable.
But if all these women are included in the palace as concubines, I am afraid that it will be even more inappropriate. ”
Everyone understands that what Zhang Lingyang said is the truth.
The gifts offered by the vassal kingdom had no reason for Da Zhou to return them at all.
Besides, if someone dares to say that Zhang Lingyang will include all these women in the palace, I am afraid that someone will immediately come out and accuse him of being a traitor.
You know, the harem only had a round of draft in the early winter of last year, if these women are filled into the harem again, then His Majesty the Emperor will delay the government because of women, who should carry this pot?
After all, no one in the world knows that our Emperor Majesty is an excellent woman.
After the harem women were filled, His Majesty the Emperor often did not go to court.
If it is because of these Warat women, won't His Majesty the Emperor have more excuses not to go to court?
Therefore, no one dared to say that Zhang Lingyang would fill these Warat women into the palace.
This is not only due to the above considerations, but also related to the purity of the blood of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Now, in order to stabilize Warat, His Majesty the Emperor has already accepted two Warat women, if we accept a few more.
In the future, the children born to these women will have the blood of Warat in their blood.
One or two are just fine.
But if there are many such princes, then in the future, will the Great Zhou be the world of the Han people or the world of Wara?
These are the things that the ministers have to think about.
Seeing that none of the ministers below dared to speak, Zhang Lingyang continued: "I originally wanted to reward these elders of the Hanlin Academy with something.
But if you think about it, if you reward yellow and white things, there is no reason to defile these old men.
But these Varat women are different, and rewarding these Varat women will not tarnish the character of these old men in the slightest.
Besides, if anyone really thinks I'm defiling these old men by doing this.
Then I have reason to wonder how dirty your minds are. ”
Seeing Zhang Lingyang say this, no one dared to come out to oppose the ministers of the court.
After a pause, seeing that no one objected, Zhang Lingyang smiled lightly at the corner of his mouth and said, "Since no one objected, then this matter is decided." ”
"There is one more thing I want to talk to you Aiqing." Zhang Lingyang continued: "At the time of the meeting with Warat Khan in Tumubao, Warat Khan said that because of their admiration for my Great Zhou culture, they wanted to send a group of noble children to study in my Great Zhou Dynasty.
Considering my relationship with Warat, I agreed.
After that, every year, Guozijian would recruit 120 students from Warat to enroll. ”
As soon as Zhang Lingyang said this, it immediately caused an uproar in the Manchu Dynasty.
The ministers have everything they say.
But it's nothing more than the 'Huayi Great Defense' to talk about things.
Zhang Lingyang smiled disappreliantly: "Sage Kong has said that if Yidi enters China, it will be China."
If, Varat admires my Great Zhou culture and sends people to study it devoutly, there is no reason for me to turn it away, right? ”
Since the ministers said 'Huayi Great Defense', Zhang Lingyang took out the words of Old Master Kong to plug the mouths of these ministers.
Finally, Zhang Lingyang said: "At the request of the Khan of Warat, I also decided to send a group of scholars from the Hanlin Academy to Warat to teach the children of Warat the Four Books and the Five Classics, so that they can also bathe in the glory of Sage Confucius. ”
The "......" uninformed people wanted to refute it, but they couldn't think of a reason.
You can't say that Varat is not worthy of letting the masters of the Hanlin Academy go.
If this incident really caused Warat's displeasure, then they would really become sinners for the peace between Great Zhou and Warat.
But old fritters like Zheng Yongji, after Zhang Lingyang said these words, he tasted some deep meanings, so he didn't say anything against it.
……
After going down to the court, Zhang Lingyang instructed Sun Sheng: "You go to the Hanlin Academy now to choose a candidate to go to Warat."
However, you must remember that the people you choose must be those who can only read the Four Books and the Five Classics. ”
"Slaves obey!" Sun Sheng understood, replied and hurried to the Hanlin Courtyard......
After Sun Sheng left, Zhang Lingyang returned to the Heart Cultivation Hall proudly.
"It would be great if the gang of rotten Confucians in the Hanlin Academy could teach all the younger generation of Warat to be nerds like them, who only knew the Four Books and the Five Classics." Lying on the bed, Zhang Lingyang thought in his heart.
At this moment, there was an uproar in the Hanlin Academy.
After all, no one wants to go to the cold prairie, do they?
However, after all, the arms can't reach the thighs.
In addition to a few Confucians who were too old, Sun Sheng still selected more than 30 Confucian students from the Hanlin Academy.
Among them, it naturally includes Zhou Chang, the champion of the current department, and Li Tai, the top eye.
Zhou Chang and Li Tai, since they entered the Hanlin Academy, have been working hard every day, but they have still been squeezed out and made difficult.
After all, in the eyes of everyone, the butts of these two people are not on the side of the gentry at all.
And Zhou Chang and Li Tai were extremely pale when they saw Sun Sheng write his name on the list of people who went to Warat.
After all, compared to others, Zhou Chang and Li Tai are still very young, and they have even just married a wife and have never had children.
Once you go to Warat this time, it not only means that your career will end here, but I am afraid that I am very likely to die because of this.
Unless, they are willing to marry a woman from Warat.
But will they be willing?
After Li Tai saw that his name was written on the list, he hurriedly ran out of the Hanlin Courtyard and ran all the way to the gate of Li Guangtai's house.
Taking a deep breath, Li Tai knocked on the door of Li Guangtai's house and said to Menzi: "Li Tai, the editor of the Hanlin Academy, came to meet Master Li, and asked the little brother to go to Tongyu!" ”
