Chapter 88: On the Education of the Prince
Saying goodbye to Yan Shigu and promising to arrange for someone to send the paper immediately, Feng Daiwen thought all the way to the palace.
"See the saints, the saints are safe!" Feng Daiwen saw Li Shimin, who was working in the imperial study, reviewing the folds, and stepped forward to salute.
"The country is here, sit down!" Li Shimin raised his head from the pile of folds, glanced at Feng Daiwen and said with a little tiredness.
Feng Daiwen sat down and waited for half an hour before Li Shimin finished the recital, stretched his waist, patted the chair and said, "Fortunately, this chair you designed is much better than kneeling before."
"What is the important thing for you to come?" As soon as the conversation changed, Li Shimin asked.
Feng Daiwen said what he saw in Bogutang today, and finally said: "I think that after sorting it out, the classics will be printed according to the degree of preciousness, and the common ones can be slowed down, printed less, or not printed, and the precious ones can be printed more, so that more people can learn, so as not to be lost." ”
"Yes, Wei Guo is thoughtful, I let Yu Shinan take charge of daily affairs, Yu Shinan has a good relationship with Yan Shigu, Kong Yida and others, and there is no need to worry about their conflicts, as for the construction of the masonry hall, how much does it cost?" Li Shimin quickly selected the right person and asked.
"The minister thinks that Bogutang can set up a separate meritorious service, whether it is a family, or a businessman, an official, a literati and a military general, or a common person, donating ancient books, fragments, sorting out ancient books, and donating property, you can obtain meritorious deeds, and you can exchange meritorious deeds for precious classic rubbings in the future." Feng Daiwen suggested again.
"Yes, yes, so that there will be no money from the treasury. This matter will be handled by you to defend the country, and the matter of the martial arts school, you can also look at the selection of places to build, I have thought about it carefully, and after the Turks are eliminated, the soldiers will be streamlined and the government military system will be abolished. Li Shimin immediately said happily when he heard that there was no need to spend money and that there were other benefits.
"The saint is wise, and the minister obeys orders!" Feng Daiwen agreed with a smile.
"Haha, I am naturally wise, but why is the grain production in Shuofang so much higher than in other places during this year's autumn harvest?" Li Shimin asked him what he was most concerned about.
Feng Daiwen carefully introduced how to select, fertilize, and intensively cultivate.
"Yes, this matter is also up to you, you need the cooperation of that department, just call someone, well, you have a lot of things, I am asking Wei Zheng, Chu Suiliang to cooperate with you, and the prince is also with you, although it is enough to arrange for him to do things." Li Shimin thought for a moment and said.
"Thank you for your understanding!" Feng Daiwen was secretly complaining, and there were too many things piled up on his body at this time, so he heard Li Shimin arrange manpower for him, and couldn't help but respond happily.
"Haha, if it really tires you out, Guang'an doesn't have to blame me, what else is there, let's talk about it together, I will solve it for you." Li Shimin also said humorously.
"The minister has a request, and I hope that the saint will approve it." Feng Daiwen got up and said solemnly.
"Aiqing, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Li Shimin couldn't help but look righteous when he saw Feng Daiwen so serious.
"If you don't understand the profession, you can't be an official of the profession, such as water conservancy supervisors, craftsmen supervisors, agriculture, and other departments, and ask the saint to issue an order to convene a hundred Taoist Chang'an to accept the assessment and appoint and remove officials." Feng Daiwen seriously suggested.
"This matter is very important, it can't be done overnight, including the separation of powers, military and political affairs, etc., which you talked about for me earlier, I also want to do it well, but unfortunately I can't, after pacifying the Turks, I will have time to think about this, just wait." Li Shimin stood up with a sigh and patted Feng Daiwen on the shoulder, and said earnestly.
"Yes, this is because the ministers are too anxious, and the ministers are really disappointed in that group of corrupt people." Feng Daiwen calmed down and said.
"Why don't I be, take your time, Aiqing is loyal, and I am very relieved!" Li Shimin sighed, it is rare for someone to be the same as himself, he is also very happy, after all, Wei Chigong and others are okay to fight, and others can't help, Fang Xuanling and others don't have Feng Daiwen's broad vision and thinking, Li Shimin also has a headache when he thinks of those rotten Confucians in the court.
"The minister is reckless, but it is a good system for the former Sui to hold the imperial examination, and the sage can adopt it, but I hope that the sage will consider adding a major to select talents." Feng Daiwen thought about it, it was impossible to do everything at once, so he nodded and suggested.
"Yes, I have this intention, and I discussed it with the auxiliary machine and others before, but after the elimination of the Turks, hum, the Turks are really hateful." Li Shimin said as he spoke, and when he thought of the Turks, he slapped his desk angrily and said angrily.
"The minister suggested that in the future, whether it is the imperial examination or the recommendation, all personnel will be delegated to the local government to see that the ability is entrusted with important tasks." Feng Daiwen suggested again.
"Well, yes, no matter who it is, first find a suitable place to settle and see if you can see your ability, you see how about putting the prince and others in a place to exercise." Li Shimin frowned and thought for a while.
"It is feasible, but now the prince is still young, Weichen is courageous, please set up a family motto, in the future, all my Tang princes, all need to understand all walks of life, anonymously engaged in various jobs, decentralize the local government to understand the people's suffering, all dynasties are one or two generations of monarchs before the founding of the country, and then mediocre and incompetent, not the monarch is stupid, but ignorant also, count the Qin Emperor Han Wu, Han Gaozu, Guangwu Emperor, the former Sui Wen Emperor, the Taishang Emperor, the saint you, are all through hardships, is to be able to govern the world, others are not enough to mention, this relationship is the Tang Dynasty thousands of years, and ask the saint to think twice. Feng Daiwen stood up and spoke loudly.
For a long time, Feng Daiwen lay on the ground and didn't dare to raise his head, he was afraid, and he said it as soon as his mind was hot, you must know that the most taboo thing about being an emperor is that someone interferes in matters related to imperial power.
"Get up, I know that the defense of the country is a painstaking task, you are my son-in-law, you are qualified to talk about royal affairs, I will think about it, you can teach the prince according to what you want." Li Shimin pulled up Feng Daiwen, who was sweating profusely, and said gently.
"Thank you sage for not blaming Weichen," Feng Daiwen looked at Li Shimin gratefully, worthy of the first emperor of the ages, and his heart was really broad-minded.
"Okay, don't think about it, I'm a little embarrassed, you go down," Li Shimin said with a smile as he patted Feng Daiwen's grateful eyes.
"The minister retreats," Feng Daiwen hurriedly said goodbye and went out, only to find that his whole body was wet with Han, and a cold wind blew, and he couldn't help but shiver, and couldn't help striding out of the palace.
Back in the house, Feng Daiwen sat in the study and felt uneasy, and couldn't help but write down a favorite poem to read in later generations, which was Qiu Sheng's male line, every time he read the sermon, his blood would boil and tears would fill his eyes.
Men should kill people, and kill mercilessly. Immortal karma is all in killing.
In the past, there were rich men, and they were righteous and promised. The eyes are murderous, and the body is lighter than a feather.
There are also heroes and tyrants, killing people like hemp, galloping around the world, only boasting about swords and guns.
If you want to find this kind of now, you will fish for the moon shadow in vain. You don't see it, the erection of the Confucian bee raises the strong man to die,
Since then, Shenzhou has praised benevolence and righteousness. Once the Central Plains was chaotic, the scholars ran to the cowardly people and wept,,,,,,
Later generations of Confucianism not only emasculated the most essential thoughts, but also broke the backbone of the warriors, and now that there is an opportunity, Feng Daiwen is determined not to let history repeat itself.
