Chapter 269: Grasp with both hands, and be hard with both hands

This means that Li Hao's forces began to occupy a position in the court of the Tang Dynasty, and what his faction wanted to do in the future would get more responses.

"I wish the two assassins first, I hope that the two of them will rise step by step in the officialdom, and they will need more care in the court in the future." Needless to say, the two assassins knew what Li Hao was talking about. Li Hao himself naturally doesn't need the two of them to take care of him, but Li Hao's students and some of Li Hao's arrangements need their care very much.

Lao Feng did not rise to the imperial court, but in order to make their life in the Tang Dynasty better, Li Hao suggested that this guy let a few juniors go to Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty, so as to leave some hostages for Li Er. Otherwise, if the Feng Mansion has been here for a long time, I'm afraid the consequences will not be so good.

In ancient times, it was indeed very pitiful, thinking that Lao Feng, a person like Lao Feng who had contributed to the southern Xinjiang of the Tang Dynasty with his whole family, they had been here for a long time, and Li Er would always worry that they had two hearts. So it's always a defense when you use it, and then it's easy to weaken it.

Because of the remoteness of the place, and because of the fact that the people who were released held a lot of military power. For example, Li Hao, two years after he came to Lingnan, no matter what situation he faced, he would not dare to expand the army, which was a big taboo.

Once you encounter a scene that these tens of thousands of people can't deal with, the war can easily get out of control. But this can't be helped, if Li Hao is allowed to master more troops, Li Er still has to worry about whether Li Hao will become the second Feng family, and now Li Er is weakening the influence of the Feng family in Lingnan.

Two days after Li Hao came back, Xiao Wu also came over from Chang'an, and brought the latest news from Chang'an. The battle between the two kings is now becoming more and more intense, but Li Er doesn't seem to notice these at all, and still shows special attention to a certain prince from time to time because of a whim, which makes some people in the court waver.

Li Er is now paying attention to the recent rise of the Southern Weekly, because this thing seems to be very interesting. In fact, not only Li Er paid attention to it, but other officials of the imperial court also began to notice this emerging thing.

The Southern Weekly is now selling well in the South, and many businessmen in the North have joined in. There are not only some dynamic situations on the Lingnan Road, but also a lot of business opportunities, and many people have made a fortune by watching the movements on it.

So now the Southern Weekly is developing at a rapid pace of growth almost every issue, and the content of the newspaper is slowly spreading. It was not surprising that Li Er noticed this, there would always be some people collecting these things for Li Er.

However, to Li Hao's surprise, Li Er didn't seem to have any intention of holding himself accountable, and he was quite optimistic about the Southern Weekly, as did those bigwigs in the imperial court. It is said that they are wondering if they can get such a thing out between Chang'an and all the officials.

There is a saying in later generations that this thing is something that came out of the Western Han Dynasty, but it is evidenced after Tang Kaiyuan. Zhenguan didn't appear here, Li Hao didn't think that a small act of his random would make a thing born in advance.

In addition to the production of newspapers, Li Hao feels that there are some things that should also be taken seriously. Now is the time for the whole Tang Dynasty to bury its head in developing its national strength, so many things have not been noticed, and if they appear at the time, it may be too late to remedy them, and there are some things from the future generations that they can't imagine.

Therefore, Li Hao is ready to report some things with upward content in his Southern Weekly, so that the imperial court and Li Er will have a better impression of this newspaper. After all, this is the first newspaper, and it must be taken care of in order to continue to carry it forward.

"Brother-in-law, the Southern Weekly has never made any suggestions other than publishing some of the policies and laws of the imperial court. Now that these are suddenly published, will it make the emperor wary of this? ”

What Li Hao wanted to tell Li Er was that the building of material civilization and the building of spiritual civilization were equally important, and that both hands should be firm, and these could be publicized in the newspapers.

The construction of material civilization Datang has made a lot of achievements after the rule of Zhenguan, and if some of Li Hao's previous suggestions are adopted, then the economic take-off is just around the corner.

However, the building of spiritual civilization will not work, and the education at this time is still only a preliminary education in loyalty to the monarch and patriotism, which is far from enough. Moreover, cultural education is only popularized among some people with good conditions, and the penetration rate among other people is very low.

Therefore, it is necessary to vigorously promote the idea that all the people of Datang are loyal to Your Majesty, loyal to Datang, love Datang, and contribute to the development of Datang. Printing a large number of patriotic and loyal to His Majesty's thoughts of the Southern Weekly, a large number of propaganda of the Chinese people's virtues of diligence, honesty, thrift, and filial piety, so that every ordinary person in the Tang Dynasty must understand these truths, and the cultivation of patriotic and loyal virtues should start from the baby.

These are all indiscriminate means used by later generations, intensive bombing, but the effect is very good, especially in this era of lack of public opinion, Li Hao is also a victim of later generations.

In fact, the requirements of ordinary people are really low, and whoever has food to eat doesn't have to go hungry. If it's not who is cornered, who wants to resist? Now that I can eat enough and learn some simple things, this is still necessary.

It's a pity that the people who rode on people's heads in later generations have forgotten these things, and they are just a handful of lawbreakers or people who don't know the truth to make trouble. As for the truth, it doesn't matter anymore, because what they say with their eyes closed counts.

However, the official ethics of this era are still worthy of trust, and in the early days of the Tang Dynasty, there was a set of truly effective official management systems, which should also be vigorously promoted, and the diligence and honesty of officials should be rewarded. As for those who are corrupt, corrupt, oppress the people, and traitors, they will be dealt with strictly and announced to the world through the Datang Southern Weekly, so that their ugly deeds will be known to the world.

If this continues, even if those with dissenting intentions want to rebel, they will be captured because no one responds. As long as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty is not too mediocre and forces the people to have no way out, then the world of the Tang Dynasty can be passed on forever.

After Li Hao's proposal was published, it did not arouse the vigilance of the Tang Dynasty as Xiao Wu said, but it was very interesting to Li Er, and even gave some rewards to the Southern Weekly, who doesn't want their throne to be passed on forever?

Of course, if these are not enough, it is important to improve the living standards of the people of Datang and increase their participation in various spiritual civilization activities, but these are based on the country's stability, prosperity and political clarity. Then the political clarity and the stability of the country depend on the court of the Tang Dynasty.

The way to govern the country, both civil and military, also needs to be grasped with both hands. Although the country is extremely prosperous and the spiritual civilization construction is good, it cannot withstand the constant harassment of foreign races, which finally led to the collapse of the country, and the royal concubines and children were all captured by the barbarians to warm the bed and insulted.

Blindly heavy military is not enough, and the division of feudal towns in the late Tang Dynasty in the original history is a clear proof. Of course, Li Hao can't just take them out and talk to Li Er, otherwise it's strange if Li Er doesn't turn his face with him immediately.

He is talking about the stability of the country and the clarity and political ability of the court officials are very related, civil officials are not greedy for money, military attaches are not afraid of death is important, but there is also a difference between a mediocre official and a bright official.

The military now has a staff system and a corresponding system of awards for military merit, as well as a royal military academy, but what about civilian officers? Shouldn't there be a corresponding system for civil servants to solve the problem? Sometimes the impact of a civil official's decision on the right or wrong is also important.

So do all the central cadres of the imperial court need to start from the grassroots level and accumulate a certain amount of experience before they can be promoted, and they can't be promoted quickly because of his outstanding talent. Practice is the only criterion for testing the truth, and whether you have the talent to work at the grassroots level can be completely seen, rather than saying it with your mouth.

In fact, these were implemented very well in the early Tang Dynasty, but they slowly deteriorated later, so this kind of system also needs to form a hard and strict rule that must be implemented permanently.

At the same time, the quality of the officials themselves also needs to be trained, after all, how many people who have been trained by relying on a few books and five classics can be as elegant as those famous ministers? Moreover, there are so many officials in Datang that there is no guarantee that every official can become a famous minister, so it is also necessary to train all officials in the ideology of loyalty and patriotism and the study of people's livelihood and economy.

In this case, a school is also needed to train future officials, not those who can become officials directly through the imperial examination. Think about the people in later generations who can't lift the exam after dozens of years of age, Li Hao, who can't lift his hands and can't pick his shoulders, feels depressed, even if such a person can be promoted and make him an official, how much use will it be for the country?

Everyone who wants to enter the Tang Dynasty as an official must undergo a civil servant assessment, and different positions have different assessment methods. Instead of simply passing the imperial examination, it is only a selection of literati rather than officials.

Such people are blessed by talents, and people without talents may bring endless harm to the country because of mistakes in decision-making.

Li Er did not agree with the views of the Southern Weekly on this civil servant evaluation system, after all, Li Er had vigorously praised the imperial examination system he had carried out, and the heroes of the world were all in my place, how could he deny his achievements so quickly.

However, he can accept the way of governing the country here, which is both civil and military, and it is also acceptable for officials to need practical training. Li Er himself is not only very strong in military ability, but his ability to govern the country is also not bad, and he has also been in contact with the grassroots.

The others are noncommittal, Li Hao didn't feel that his views could be accepted by Li Er, as long as Li Er could accept half of what he said, it would be good, and he would not be a great power in governing the country in his later life. He's just a doctor, and a lot of his ideas are just getting from the forum.
