Chapter 240: The Prince's Speech
The early dynasty was beginning, and the prince stood in the court, and said with a straight face: "The sons and daughters of Bashui City have already taken countermeasures, and they also ask their father to take a look." With that, he handed over the paper.
The ministers were surprised, and the faces of the other princes were not very good-looking, especially the third prince, who clenched their fists even more, and the emperor looked at it and wondered: "Is this method really feasible?" β
The prince affirmed: "Erchen has conducted experiments on the epidemic people, and he is currently recovering well!" But because the sons were afraid of infecting the Dao Palace, they didn't dare to bring it, and asked their father to forgive me! β
The Emperor's expression relaxed, and after a violent cough, he smiled and said, "Yes, where do you come from with this method?" Will it cause a backlash later? β
The prince was also a little hesitant in his heart, and at this time he realized that he trusted Wu You too much, but there was no possibility of retreating at this point, so he affirmed: "This Fa Erchen personally saw that the patient gradually recovered, and the person who contributed to this Fa said that it would be possible for people to recover as before in a week at the earliest!" β
The Emperor was completely relaxed, and laughed: "Okay! Today, the prince offered this wonderful plan, and also experienced the suffering of the people, not bad, very good! β
"The prince is benevolent, and the country is fortunate!" The ministers knelt down and said.
The Emperor nodded, looked at the prince with satisfaction, and said, "You have been very good lately!" β
The lines on the prince's face became softer, and the corners of his mouth also smiled: "Thank you for your appreciation!" β
After solving such a big problem, the atmosphere of the entire court seemed to be relieved, and then there were a lot of reports on things in various parts of the country, and more importantly, Qin Tianjian once again affirmed that in a few days, that is, the matter of the Marquis of Qin on the Qingming Festival will be carried out!
The matter of Marquis Qin has already been decided, and there is no argument in the court on this matter, so he can only actively cooperate.
After dispersing, the prince trotted to the Cloud Palace, saying that there was something important to play.
The emperor was in a good mood today, and when he heard several good things, he quickly let the prince in, and the emperor smiled and said: "Emperor, yesterday my good grandson asked your mother to say goodbye, I was also present, very good, he can recite something at a young age, much better than you!" β
The prince suddenly smiled and said: "My father often taught us to learn like a boat sailing against the current, and if we don't advance, we will retreat, and my sons and daughters also taught him like this!" β
"Well, yes, it's like learning against the current!" The Emperor felt something.
The prince smiled as usual: "Indeed, just like today's Hanlin Academy, the world's talents are all in Kyoto, the peaceful and prosperous times are just like this, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the people communicate with each other, especially the empire has existed for a hundred years It is not easy, throughout history, only the great Han Yan!" β
The emperor put away his smile, nodded and sighed: "Indeed, such a prosperous era is a rare encounter in a hundred years in my dynasty, I often introspect, thinking about what shortcomings in the past will change very quickly, but there are still many unsatisfactory points, if you ascend to this throne one day, you must remember, for the monarch should be mindful of the world, do something for this common people, don't ruin the ancestors' century-old foundation!" β
The prince bowed down to show that he remembered it.
The emperor was also a little tired after talking for a while, and Ji Abel said: "If there is nothing to do, Your Majesty is going to rest, please come back tomorrow to say goodbye!" β
The prince didn't move, knelt down violently and said, "Father, the son still has something to say!" β
The Great Emperor opened his eyes violently, and said in silence: "Say!" β
The prince slowly spoke: "Everyone in the world knows that the empire is prosperous and powerful, and they also know that they should serve the imperial court, so everyone is vying to learn, so the sons and daughters have a reluctant request!" β
The emperor had already noticed the prince's abnormality, and he was faintly uneasy in his heart, so he said coldly: "Say! β
The crown prince gritted his teeth and said: "Erchen implores my father to set up Hanlin schools in the southeast, south, and northwest of the empire, so as to facilitate the study of students!" β
The emperor's fierce eyes were shining, how could there be a sick look in the court at this time, "There is enough place in Kyoto, why not have talented people in the world who are proud to study in Beijing!" β
Anyway, it has already been said that the prince can't care so much at this time, and said: "When Erchen often heard that some talented people were eventually killed by thieves because of the long distance, or because of natural disasters and countless deaths and injuries, often a talented man or even some poor people's sustenance, or even the sustenance of the entire village, and there is a very important reason, that is, the Hanlin Academy is too far away. β
The Emperor muttered, "I have issued a decree that these students will be allowed to rest at the passing inn, or they may be sponsored by the state government!" β
The prince's body trembled uncontrollably, and his movements were very slight, and the emperor couldn't see it, so Ji Abel shook his head secretly.
I only heard the prince continue: "But, did my father know that there have been rumors among the people in recent years, 'The talented son of Hanlin occupies the country, and the majesty of the heavenly family does not leave the city!'" This sentence is not made up by the prince, but it is indeed spread by word of mouth in other places, but it is only some small cities, some big cities still obey the orders of Kyoto, but small cities don't care, as long as the knot is good, the official is more comfortable than the emperor, so there is a saying of '100,000 snowflakes and silver in the Qing prefect' in three years.
The Emperor slapped the table violently and said angrily: "Presumptuous, as the crown prince, you believe such an extremely ridiculous thing, and you are still alarmist in front of me, what are your intentions!" β
The prince was even more afraid, but he didn't dare to say anything more.
The emperor was furious, walked down to the prince's side, and said angrily: "I have millions of soldiers, and the world is in my hands, who said that I want to destroy him!" β
The prince secretly smiled bitterly, and had to say: "Father, the emperor is angry!" β
"Anger at my heart? What is the meaning of 'Hanlin talents occupy the country, and the majesty of heaven does not leave the city'? Hahaha, do I still need to be approved by people to leave the city? The Emperor said angrily.
Ji Abel stepped forward and handed the Emperor a glass of water, the Emperor wanted to fall to the ground, but he still took a sip and drank it, his anger was extinguished a lot, and he asked, "Is the Hanlin Academy really as you said?" β
"Qi Qi father, not what the son said, but these years, since the father proposed the establishment of the Hanlin Academy, the world's talented people run to celebrate everyone said that no matter the noble or low, they can serve the country, but, the Hanlin Academy has existed for half a hundred, the court and the ministers have changed in an orderly manner, and now the civil officials of the Manchu Dynasty are all from the Hanlin Academy, they claim to be the protΓ©gΓ©s of the Hanlin Academy, not the protΓ©gΓ©s of the Son of Heaven, so the sons suggested that they should build a Hanlin College in the southeast, northwest and northwest, which can recruit students like the Hanlin Academy. However, to become an official in the court, you have to be elected by the court instead of the Hanlin Academy, so that truly talented people can serve the court! The prince said slowly.
In fact, there are some things that the prince still doesn't dare to say too clearly, just like the dean of the Hanlin Academy directly recommends students to be officials, and they may recommend good officials, but it is also possible to open the net and let the students who are usually clever become officials, which is a great test of the student's temperament, if you can't grasp it, it will be a disaster that endangers a place!
The Emperor walked to the dragon chair and sat down, and said, "Stand down!" β
The prince immediately retreated, only to find that his back was completely wet.
Only then did the emperor show fatigue and sighed: "The child has grown up and started to play with his mind, hum"
Ji Abel stepped forward and handed the emperor warm tea, and the emperor handed it to his mouth and threw it out violently: "My good son!" I'm not dead yet! Do you want all the soldiers in the world to be grateful to him? From now on, the world will listen to me or listen to him! β
Ji Abel patted the emperor on the back, and the emperor smiled bitterly: "However, I don't have a few years to live, if I am a few years younger, alas, the years will make people old, Aman, why do you say that the heavenly family does not have the happiness of ordinary people?" β
Ah Man shook his head with a wry smile and said: "The slave can't answer, the slave has followed you since he was a child, in Ah Man's heart, His Majesty is Ah Man's family!" β
The Emperor smiled and shook his head. (To be continued.) )
