When everyone mistakenly thought that Shi Bufan dared to fight with Emperor Li Shimin for a woman, this made Li Shimin feel a lot more relieved to a certain extent. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoBecause what Li Shimin is most worried about is not this woman Zheng Liwan, but he is more worried that Shi Bufan will be difficult to control in the future. And when the heart is infanciful, he dares to fight with himself for a woman, and dares to tear himself apart, which makes Li Shimin feel a lot more relieved to a certain extent. In particular, Li Shimin believes that Shi Bufan is just like this, and he also has his own weaknesses. A man without weakness will not reassure the king. Because the king himself has his own weaknesses, he is most afraid of those who seem to have no weaknesses. Shi Bufan actually dared to tear himself apart for a woman, so Li Shimin was relieved. Although he lost a woman, it was not unacceptable for a man like him in troubled times. For a man in troubled times, if a woman is lost, he will lose it, as long as he can exchange it for a better future, he doesn't mind losing a woman in exchange for the loyalty of his courtiers.

And Li Shimin is also very good at giving full play to the spirit of Ah Q, comforting himself, thinking that he can give a quasi-imperial concubine to his courtiers, then this is a great kindness, if Shi Bufan dares to do anything to him in the future, then everyone in the world will look down on Shi Bufan. Therefore, Li Shimin also adopted this Ah Q spirit, and chose to comfort himself and me, so as to relieve depression.

The rest of the days still have to be passed, because nothing can spread. Especially this kind of bullshit thing, it is necessary to expose it as soon as possible. For ordinary people, they know the emperor's benevolence and righteousness, and they know that the emperor is a Ming monarch, and they actually give their quasi-imperial concubines to their courtiers, which is a great grace! As for those court ministers, some people couldn't see the connection clearly, so they were confused. However, as the parties concerned, Shi Bufan and Fang Xuanling all scolded Gao Huitong to death in their hearts, and both of them gave Gao Shufei and Gao Huitong a pit.

Time passed very quickly, and then Shi Bufan has been supervising the affairs of this host and guest, and supervising those Tubo are all things advancing. At present, Xin Mao has successfully entered Tuyuhun as a foreign envoy, which can be regarded as a preliminary contact with the local area. Although there is no peace between the two sides, the political relationship is not good, and it does not necessarily hinder economic exchanges. This is also an international politics, and political relations and economic relations are not necessarily equated, so to purchase salt from Qinghai Lake, Tuyuhun will not object, but will feel good about increasing income, and naturally will not refuse stupidly. As for table salt, it's not a threat, so don't worry about the enemy.

"Your Majesty, the old minister suggested that the emperor should be asked to restart the revision of history as soon as possible, and to revise the history books of the northern and southern dynasties as soon as possible, so as to pass them on to future generations." Kong Yingda took the initiative to write to Li Shimin.

Kong Yingda's words have been approved by many people.

"Your Majesty, the ministers seconded the proposal, and the matter of revising history should be done as soon as possible. We, Datang, have unified the world, and we should revise history as soon as possible. Shi Bufan took the initiative to say.

Shi Bufan knew that this revision of history was an important matter of the feudal dynasty, and that revision of history was not only of historical significance, but also of very important political significance. According to a tacit underlying rule of China's dynasties, that is, "intergenerational revision of history". That is, when the previous dynasty perished, the new dynasty will organize a large-scale organization to repair the dynastic history at that time. Such a situation is actually tacit, of course, as the Tang Dynasty, it will not take the initiative to compile a "History of the Tang Dynasty", so this intergenerational revision of history is a potential rule, but few people take the initiative to say it.

However, for the vast majority of literati, the revision of history is an important thing of political significance. Because revising the history of an old dynasty means that the old dynasty has been "closed in the coffin", which can be regarded as the ideological end of the real influence of this dynasty, because it has become "history". The dynasty responsible for revising history, that is, inheriting the legal system of the previous dynasty, inherited their legal system to a certain extent to gain rule, which can be regarded as a tradition of Han culture in the Central Plains, and this inherited tradition also represents orthodoxy. Therefore, many dynasties have just settled down, and they will soon compile the history of the previous dynasty, which means that the previous dynasty has become "history", so as to end the influence of the old dynasty ideologically.

"The minister seconded the proposal!" Let's talk about it together.

This matter of revising history makes everyone have no opinions, because this kind of thing is necessary for the current imperial court, and it represents the orthodox status of the Tang Dynasty. Moreover, the impact of history revision on the political pattern is not too great, it is an academic matter, and it has little impact on the division of the political map, so there is no need for everyone to oppose it.

"Okay, allow Kong Yingda to say, my Datang should revise history as soon as possible, thinking that the world is orthodox." Li Shimin agreed.

However, then, there are a lot of people who have a lot of controversy about this person who participated in the revision of history.

"Your Majesty, it should be the president of the important minister, and the minister is willing to lead the president!" Fang Xuanling said.

Li Shimin quickly agreed with Fang Xuanling's statement, and Fang Xuanling was the president of this history museum. In ancient times, the revision of history was a very solemn and serious matter, so many people who revised history were led by the prime minister, and most of the feudal dynasties in the revision of history were led by the prime minister, although the prime minister may not be personally responsible, but even if it is just a name, it is also solemn. Fang Xuanling is the president, which is very normal. Although Fang Xuanling's main responsibilities will not pass, it is inevitable that he will be named. In order to appear that a certain matter is solemn and serious, it is very normal for a senior official to be the leader in name, even in later generations. Even in the West, there are many examples of this, many high-ranking officials have a lot of "part-time jobs", of course, they don't actually take care of these part-time affairs, and they are all in charge of nominal subordinates.

Fang Xuanling will serve as the president, and everyone has no opinion on this. However, for the next few vice presidents, it seems that there are many people competing. And this president and vice president are not the kind of positions that later generations of enterprises, and this president is one of the official positions in ancient literary affairs, which is biased towards literary and historical positions. There must be a president for revising historical facts, including compiling various books. The "Yongle Canon" and the later "Siku Quanshu" were also served as "presidents" by Xie Jin and Ji Xiaolan. In ancient times, the president was a literary officer, not a business manager.

Shi Bufan took the initiative to say: "Your Majesty, the minister Mao recommended himself and asked to be one of the vice presidents!" ”

Shi Bufan took the initiative to ask to participate in the revision of history, which was inevitably needed. During the feudal dynasty, the revision of history was a very "noble" identity, and as a historian, he was very aware of the importance of revision. Revision of history was a very noble and very important help for the future in ancient times. Even if it's just a name, it's worth it. In the Tang Dynasty, there were prime ministers who sighed that he had become prime ministers in his life, but there were three regrets. One is not from a Jinshi background, while the other is not involved in the revision of history, and the last one is not married to a woman with five surnames. Of course, for Shi Bufan, he relied on recommendation to enter the ranks, so it was impossible for him to be a scholar. As for marrying a woman with five surnames, he has already done it, that is, he accepted Zheng Liwan, which can be regarded as marrying a woman with five surnames. As for the revision of history, then he must strive for it, which will not only contribute to the future reputation, but also contribute to the future political future. An official who has participated in the revision of history, and an official who has not participated in the revision of history, that is definitely the official who has participated in the revision of history will be given priority in promotion. Even those who participate in the revision of history may be able to get a promotion to the knighthood.

"Your Majesty, Shi Cao Chang is not only the host and guest Langzhong, but also the chairman of my Datang Budget Committee, I don't think there is any need to let him work so hard! And when Cao Chang was still the crown prince, he was responsible for teaching the prince, so let me do this matter! Someone suggested.

Shi Bufan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the so-called capable people work hard, I am willing to take charge of this matter!" ”

Don't look at the current Shi Bufan's identity, it seems that there are a lot, even including the official position of the prince Zhongyun, the prince's East Palace, but this prince Zhongyun is just a nominal name, and he is not really going to give a lecture to the prince. Shi Bufan didn't have the heart to give a lecture to Li Chengqian, the most taboo thing in the early years of the Tang Dynasty was to accompany the prince to study, but he was joking about his future, he was not stupid! Shi Bufan doesn't expect to have any too deep friendship with Li Chengqian, Shi Bufan is taking the road to power in the future, not to be a companion to the prince. In essence, Shi Bufan doesn't trust any emperor, because any emperor can talk to you and me in order to maintain the power of the country, but if he can also maintain the power of the country in the future, he will be more powerful with a sword and axe. Therefore, Shi Bufan does not trust any emperor, whether it is Li Shimin or Li Chengqian, or even which prince will inherit in the future. Only what is in his own hands is truly his own, and he disdains to have a good relationship with the prince. As long as you have enough strength in your hands, even the emperor will not dare to despise you.

Since this history revision will promote his future prospects, he doesn't mind hanging the name of a vice president of history revision, so that when the history books come out in the future, he will also have his own credit.

Kong Yingda, an academic friend of Shi Bufan, quickly spoke up and said: "Your Majesty, Shi Bufan has some special opinions on all kinds of history, and letting him revise history will also help to avoid bias and bias. For example, some people don't even understand the different meanings of ancient and modern, so can they also go to history? ”

Kong Yingda's words immediately made many people's faces darken, so Kong Yingda was obviously helping Shi Bufan to speak. Back then, Confucius punished Shao Zhengmao, and many people were already "closed coffins", but Shi Bufan was stunned to help Confucius overturn the case. And he used a little less reason - ancient and modern! The same word has different meanings in different eras, and "punishment" in the Spring and Autumn period does not mean killing, but condemnation. In addition, the "Xiang" in that Spring and Autumn Period was not the highest official in the country, but only an official in charge of etiquette, and his real power was not great. This distinction is something that many people ignore, or simply ignore deliberately.

Kong Yingda put forward this suggestion, so that no one could refute it. Because everyone thinks that Shi Bufan has outstanding research in both scripture and historiography, and is very incisive. In terms of scriptures, Shi Bufan put forward the study of mind, but in terms of history, he also overturned the case for Confucius, and even Shi Bufan also knew the economy, which was helpful for food and goods. Some people know that Shi Bufan is also proficient in the "study of criminal names", which is the name of ancient law, so it is indeed very reasonable to let Shi Bufan revise history, whether it is academic or identity, it is enough. The Wupin civil official is fully qualified, in the early Tang Dynasty, the Wupin was already a high-ranking official, and you must know that the prime minister is also the third rank!

"Okay, exactly!" Li Shimin said.

Li Shimin approved Kong Yingda's suggestion, but then also listed the identities of some vice presidents in this revision history. And this vice president includes Wei Zheng, the secretary and supervisor, as well as many middle and high-level ministers. Of course, some of these so-called "vice presidents" are simply pseudonymous and are not responsible for specific affairs, such as vice presidents like Shi Bufan and Wei Zheng, who are mainly pseudonymous, at most they are asking about their work, and when the time comes, they will sign a name in the book. However, some people are really in charge of affairs, such as Chu Suiliang, that is, a vice president who is really responsible for specific historical affairs, and several other vice presidents are Linghu Dedi, Yan Shigu, who has just retired from the status of Zhongshu Shilang, is also a vice president in charge of specific affairs.

Yan Shigu was "kicked" by Li Shimin, because once a son of heaven and a courtier, Yan Shigu, Li Yuan's "big secretary" back then, was no longer needed, so he kicked him to the post of repairing history, which was also a waste utilization fly, because his talent was also good. As for the person who replaced this Yan Shigu's identity, that is, a person named Cen Wenwen. Cen Wenwen will replace Yan Shigu as Li Shimin's secretary in the future. However, at present, Cen Wenwen is already a member of Zhongshu She, although Cen Wenwen is also named a vice president, but his main affairs are already in charge of Zhongshu Province. Cen Wenwen in Zhongshu Province can also be called "Ge Lao", the same identity as Gao Jifu.

Therefore, this matter of revising history, like the "Party History Office" in later generations, has many deputy positions, but most of them do not care about things. However, the revision of history in ancient times and the party history office in later generations are not the same thing. In later generations, when I went to the Party History Office, I was excluded. But if you go to study history in ancient times, it is the identity of a noble person, and you have to go in if you squeeze your head.
