"I want to make a prince recently, can I have good advice?" , Liu Qi is now from the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, and he unknowingly regards Ouyang Xuan as a confidant, and his favorite Zhou Ren is now in a state of falling out of favor, and he is still only Lang Zhongling.

"In the previous life, there was a lesson from the queen of Lu, in order to prevent the dictatorship of foreign relatives, the mother of the prince needed to be benevolent and generous. The other ministers dare not speak nonsense, and His Majesty is prosperous, so there is no need to worry too much. The latter needs to be benevolent, just go with the flow, and there is no need to worry about it."

"Well, I'll think again. Listening to the right Fufeng recital, Hu Hou paid five more calculations last year. Haha, it's a pity that my daughters are all young, otherwise they will definitely be recruited. But there are those who like it, and I will be the matchmaker with you."

"Your Majesty laughed, the minister has never thought about this, and it is also an inch of heart to pay some taxes to Dasi Nong."

"Haha, whatever you want. I heard that I was waiting to accept two hundred apprentices and grant another hospital. Take a look at it a little bit." After speaking, he took a sip of tea and thought for a while. He looked at the tea again and said, "Why does this tea have a faint glow?"

"Oh, the water used for this tea is specially collected by the minister for His Majesty. It helps His Majesty to drive away evil spirits and strengthen the body. Your Majesty can drink it with confidence. There are not many things in this place, the eyes in the palace are mixed, the ministers do not dare to offer, when Your Majesty is free, you can come to the village to be modulated by the ministers, so that you can have no worries."

"Well, that's fine. After the three princes discussed, amended, and implemented within the year, the military can be completed. ”

"Well, now that the army is initially formed, it will be able to fight in half a year." Under the strict training of 500 specially trained soldiers, the expanded Yulin Army is still capable of fighting compared to the original Yulin. It's just that he lacks battlefield experience and lacks the murderous aura that comes back from the battlefield.

"Hu Hou is right next to this villa, how about building a line for me? Money and food are allocated freely by the government, and there is no need to wait for * labor".

"It is the duty of the minister to share for His Majesty, but the construction of the palace is contrary to the diligence and thrift of the first emperor, and I am afraid that the court will criticize it."

"Alas, now the tax of the great Si farmers has exceeded the previous emperor several times, and the money and grain are rusty and rotten. I am very sad, although the capital of the Shaofu is not as huge as that of Hu Hou, it is more than enough to build a palace. When money and grain flow through the market, the common people will have a place and will not go hungry. I have made a decision, and the spring has been closed, and it costs a lot of money to enter and exit with transmission. The same is true for the construction of the palace here. In winter, I want to choose a site to repair the tomb and paint the temple. Employ the idle, not the farmer. Rather than money and grain rotting in the warehouse, it is better to circulate and market." Liu Qi's simplest thinking of currency circulation, Ouyang Xuan also heard Nie Ping also say. It is no wonder that in addition to the unjust killing of Zhou Yafu and Liu Rong, the criticism of Liu Qi in history is also clearly said to be thrifty, and in fact, there are a lot of slanders in the cultivation of tombs. "Zizhi Tongjian" once said that during the Wenjing period: the money of the Beijing teacher is huge, and it is decaying and cannot be studied; Taicang's millet Chen Chen is full of dew and accumulates outside, so that it is inedible, and you can imagine the level of wealth at that time. The things are abundant but do not know how to use them, and the ministers and doctors of the clan consume the people's resources with extravagance. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had to change, so he had the simplest way of thinking about change and exhausting his financial resources, and finally had to take over the salt and iron business.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that in addition to the palace and the mausoleum, there are still resources to repair the road and public property, so as to encourage the people to create agricultural tools. Strictly restrict the private purchase of land by the ministers of the clan, and punish them with them, and reduce the title and seize the office. Legislation may be enacted to set up prisons to limit the labor of extravagant people. Sing the Tao and the people's hearts instead of Confucianism".

"Why don't you sing Confucianism? I think Confucianism is very suitable for today's world."

"Your Majesty, Confucianism sings without a god. Only about virtue and heart, only about the covenant without rewards and punishments, how can you live in peace? Only the tongue but not the deeds, only the before and not the after, can only bring trouble to the world, make people lose their hearts and morals, and do evil. The Tao sings ghosts and gods in the afterlife, there is the law of rewards and punishments for the Tao fruit, and the rewards and punishments of ghosts and gods in the afterlife are used to make an appointment, and the heart can be governed by the heart, and there are constraints in the heart and action. Confucianism has only the Tao and no results, and cannot govern the world." This is also the reason why Ouyang Xuan is extremely rejecting Confucianism, just letting people act through dogma, without mental restraint, after a long time, people will be sanctimonious, despicable and vicious, but they are full of benevolence and morality, just the hypocrisy of words and deeds. When the country is in real crisis, very few stand up. On the contrary, many traitors are Confucian protégés, and there are really few Confucian scholars in the history of loyalty, Confucianism is against martial arts, do not believe in ghosts and gods in the afterlife, and the Han and Tang dynasties were all based on Taoism. Another more hypocritical place of Confucianism is that it only emphasizes loyalty, and its actions may not be, so in order to justify itself, there is a ridiculous saying of the mean, a rare confused and untruth-seeking thinking, ruined China's millennium, and produced China's unique sleek way of life, only learn to do things, and will not do things, blind to the four major inventions, arithmetic and physical and chemical knowledge that is ahead of the millennium, especially Ouyang Xuan came to the Han Dynasty to know that the development of science is much stronger than the Ming and Qing dynasties, the use of magnets, sowing tools and metal smelting, Especially the use of chromium made Ouyang Xuan sigh to himself.

Liu Qi thought for a long time after hearing this, and then said slowly: "Hu Hou is really not the age of the crown? I am a little confused, what kind of person is the Venerable Master, and the Church has such a profound view of you. The meaning of the wait has been understood, and this is the reason for the honey-bellied sword? ”

"Exactly, the way of non-covenant is not available. Regardless of the teachings of the Fa, the Tao, and the Mo, all of them are about to practice the path of cultivating the mind. Only Confucianism has not seen it. The Legalists make a covenant with punishment, the Tao with gods and ghosts, and the Mo with gods and ghosts and the law. The best way to govern the world is the harmony of the Tao and the Law, and the Tao and the Law are not allowed to go to the sky, but there is nothing to govern. If there is a covenant with the law, the rule of law will be the rule of law first, and then the rule of the road. What is the covenant of Confucianism? ”。

"Well, I'll go back and think about what I'm saying. Go, and see your disciple's house."

When the group arrived at the courtyard, the children were divided into groups under the leadership of the guards, and were engaged in combat and physical training. Seeing Ouyang Xuan coming, he immediately stopped and sat in the hall. Today is Ouyang Xuan's lecture on one-dimensional equations in mathematics, and Liu Qi is sitting on the back chair with a square table in front of him. Under Ouyang Xuan's instructions, the servant put the basic thick books on the table, and a child next to him came over to find the math book that Ouyang Xuan was going to talk about, and turned it to the part he wanted to talk about. Liu Qi became a student for the first time under the service of Huangmen. Ouyang Xuan explained the principles and algorithms of one-dimensional equations in simple terms according to the examples in the book on the podium in front of him, and he talked for half an hour.

Although Liu Qi couldn't understand in the back, he kept observing the class. The children, with the exception of the three girls, were uniformly dressed. Girls have women's clothing, and boys have men's clothing, both of which are refined and remodeled. Gong Lianghui, who was sitting not far from Liu Qi, obviously didn't come to study, he looked straight at Ouyang Xuan, and he didn't listen to the class as carefully as other children, and he still wrote and calculated on paper. After looking for a servant and asking the reason in a whisper, Liu Qi smiled, and it was that kind of bad smile. After the math teaching is finished, answer all kinds of strange questions raised by the children, and finally be led by the guards to play in the yard, and after a quarter of an hour, they will be brought back in the group to continue teaching physics, and today the teaching is electricity. The children listened very carefully, and when they needed teaching aids, the servants put the teaching aids made by the workshop craftsmen on each children's table in time, and Ouyang Xuan walked to the middle to explain while letting the children feel by themselves. He also answered various questions from time to time, and there was talk and laughter in class, not like teaching, but leading a group of children to play.

Of course, Liu Qi didn't understand the left-handed law and the positive and negative poles, but he was just interested in the simple DC generator and motor on the table, and shook it with his hand from time to time, and the sound of the engine always sounded out of place, which aroused the curiosity of the children, and from time to time they looked back at this uncle with a sky-high crown and gorgeous clothes. The yellow door commander next to him was very nervous, always staring at the imperial guards in the courtyard not far away. After the physics class, let the children go to the cafeteria for lunch and nap. took Liu Qi to the pro-soldier barracks.

The soldiers were divided into groups to conduct various trainings under the leadership of Zhu Shan and his master Father Hong. In Liu Qi, there is a group of ten people who are very special, standing there with a weapon that I don't know what to do and aiming ahead. In the past six months, after the tungsten manganese ore has been satisfied, the alloy and firing pin alloy suitable for the gun body have finally been developed after many experiments by craftsmen, and there is even a polymetallic alloy that is harder than tough iron, which is used as a tool for machine tools. Ouyang Xuan personally got started and hand-made ten pistols and ten rifles. Thousands of bullets, just the copper scrapped by these bullets, made Nie Ping feel distressed, and two dollars were used to make a bullet. The cost of a bullet does not count the labor and reaches four cents. Ouyang Xuan and the craftsmen designed and improved the machine tool to achieve semi-automatic production of sub-bombs. When Ouyang Xuan came here, he wanted to walk over, but he didn't expect Liu Qi to stop. Looking at the guns in the hands of the soldiers curiously, Ouyang Xuan hurriedly came up to play the round, "Your Majesty, these are some toys made by the ministers, please test them, there is nothing to see." "Oh, that's the case, let's take a look in another place", Liu Qi said slowly with a very puzzled expression.

Now Ouyang Xuan has changed the weapon of his own soldiers, the knife is made of tungsten manganese steel alloy, the surface is plated with chrome, and the shield is made of aluminum alloy wood. The bows and crossbows are forged from alloy steel, which has excellent toughness. Everyone was also like Ouyang Xuan, and there was a one-meter-long sword and two 30-centimeter short knives. I train non-stop every day, especially in terms of reaction speed, and every day is a four-hour hanging wood array. After looking around, Liu Qi didn't feel anything new. In the end, he returned to the place where he was trained in firearms, and asked a soldier for a pistol to play. The soldier looked at Ouyang Xuan, there was no way, Ouyang Xuan could only nod.

"Your Majesty, although this thing is a toy made by the minister, its lethality is still stronger than that of a bow and crossbow."

"Oh? Quickly show me something." Liu Qi suddenly became interested. It's really a response to that sentence, the weak always like powerful weapons. Ouyang Xuan brought an I gun, designed according to the classic M1911 of later generations, with a caliber of four or five and a lead exposed Rem warhead. Fifty paces away, the soldiers were ordered to erect five wooden figures of equal height, with guns in both hands, standing in a standard position, telling everyone to step back, and firing five shots in a row as they ran from left to right. Putting down the gun, let the guards carry over the wooden man, none of the heads were intact, almost all broken. He said to himself: "It's okay, the craft is not wasted." He also ordered the soldiers to set up five wooden men of equal height 300 paces away, holding rifles designed according to the later Hartian rifles, and pulling the bolt to load, or from left to right, continuous bolt shooting. When the shooting was finished, he lifted the wooden man, and his head was all shattered.

"Your Majesty, the use of this kind of thing on the battlefield is now quite restrictive. And the production is quite cumbersome, and it takes two months to make these ten. It's okay to use it as a daily guard, but if you use it in the wrong way, it will also hurt you", Ouyang Xuan hurriedly poured cold water on Liu Qi, who was very excited to see it.

"Can you really give it a try?" Your Majesty's hands are insufficient, and it is difficult to control them, and I am afraid that your Majesty will be injured." "Oh, so, then let's do it."

After returning to the courtyard, Liu Qi finished listening to Ouyang Xuan's Chinese class and chemistry class in the afternoon. The reason why the ancients used classical Chinese was because of the limitations of paper and bamboo slips, the reason for writing fonts, and the reason for dialects, so the characters were abbreviated. Later, it became an excuse for Confucian literati to show rhetoric, and it also hindered the popularization of culture among the people. It was also a means for the later Confucian literati to limit the knowledge of ordinary people, and it was difficult to achieve it because it was difficult to understand and did not study hard for a long time. Ouyang Xuan broke the shackles of the original classical Chinese, and directly translated the current books into vernacular and compiled them into textbooks, and marked rare characters with pinyin. Printing is in italics, which simplifies identification. Liu Qi was not surprised by the italics, because he had seen a lot of books compiled by Ouyang Xuan and was used to it. The vernacular is scoffed. As for chemistry, it's the same as in the morning, and the ducks listen to thunder. Before the Ming Dynasty, due to dialects, there was a big difference between speaking and now, "Journey to the West" and "Water Margin" are typical examples.

In the evening, Ouyang Xuan ordered the cook to prepare a hot pot feast in the pavilion. When everyone first arrived at the pavilion and saw that there were only two tables, Liu Rong, who was already 20 years old, said: "Father, the son is impeached for the crime of disrespect." "Haha, my son, this is hot pot, I've heard of it. It is to eat together around the table, that is, to eat at home, and to put aside those vulgar rites." "What Your Majesty said is extremely true, divide the meal, waste the ingredients, the Ferno cook, and the family banquet Jane."

Men and women sit at separate tables, the queen's table is served by Gong Lianghui, and Liu Qi's table is taken care of by Ouyang Xuan. The main father Yan and the concubine also accompanied Concubine Li and the queen to explain the dishes and eating methods. Nie Ping couldn't get on the table because of his identity. Now nominally, the main father Yan is also Ouyang Xuan's apprentice. Each person has a porcelain plate, a porcelain bowl, which is very beautiful, and it is an underglaze color painted by Ouyang Xuan himself.

The hot pot banquet was also very enjoyable, especially Liu Rong and Concubine Li, who completely ignored the image and saw Liu Qizhi smash his mouth. Before the banquet was over, a Huangmen horse hurriedly came to see him, and after whispering a few words in Liu Qi's ear, Liu Qi hurriedly got up and ordered someone to be framed back to Chang'an, and the banquet came to an abrupt end.
