The first person to speak was none other than Jiang Xinyue, the imperial historian of the Zuodu, who looked around and said: "I think this matter in the newspaper will definitely cause indiscriminate discussions, slander, and interfere with the government and politics, but it is not necessarily good." ”

Immediately, everyone in the room turned their eyes to Li You, Jiang Zongxian made a move, and now it is time for Li You to take the move, and see how Li You refutes it.

Li You has already had a case and said frankly: "The opening of a newspaper is to open up the way of speech and let the voices of all parties be listed. Through the pen of reporting people, let the people know the meaning of the court, and then let the court know the difficulties of the people's livelihood, what is the court afraid of? Others can publish articles, and court officials can also write and contribute, the more the truth is debated, the clearer it becomes, how can it be said that it is nonsense and slanderous? ”

As the leader of the speech officials, Jiang Zongxian naturally wanted to safeguard the interests of his own department, and when he heard this, he was displeased and said: "All 100 officials have their own responsibilities, and they have their own special responsibilities for their words and paths, and the constitution has spread all over the world, so why do we need to do anything else." ”

Li You asked: "Emperor Taizu's edict that all the military and civilians in the world can write to the political secretary, opening a precedent for the way from below and from above, does Dazhongcheng think this is an extra move?" The meaning of the newspaper was originally taken from the holy will of Taizu, especially for the new opening of the road from the bottom to the top, and the road of science and technology complemented each other. ”

Jiang Zongxian was speechless, Li Youdu moved out of the guise of Emperor Taizu, and he really couldn't answer anymore, otherwise it would be wrong to answer.

I also saw Yuan Ge's old saying with disdain: "The imperial court has its own law for governing the people, and the six ministries of Zai Fu balance the government affairs and Ding Nai, and just follow the road." If you want this gossip newspaper to do anything, if you are not in your position, you can't understand its politics, if you are all laymen, then the matter will not be able to come to fruition, and it is purely a constraint of the court. ”

Although most of the others have not yet spoken, Li You can feel that most of these bigwigs do not agree, but they have not said it explicitly for the time being. may also be because of Lu Ge Lao and Zhao Tianguan because of Li You. Neutral with half-belief and half-doubt.

This situation is not that others are opposing him Li You. The thing itself may not be very big, but it is actually a subconscious conservative mentality about new things.

Or the bigwigs have deeper considerations, and the matter may involve some redistribution of power. Be more cautious. You must know that public opinion is also a kind of public instrument. Most of the public opinion of the imperial court was in the hands of Kedao, and the Guozijian who planned to run the newspaper was in charge of the Ministry of Rites. These...

For example, Yuan Gelao, who is in trouble now, may be mixed with this kind of selfishness. Because Hai Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites was invoked by his old opponent Peng Ge, and now he is the only seedling of Peng Ge Lao among the six departments.

Mr. Li has been an official for three and a half years, and it is the first time that he has felt the difference in thinking so intuitively. At this time, he also suddenly realized that the situation he was facing this time seemed to be different from the past, and it was no longer completely a personal struggle and a struggle for power, but with the color of a political dispute.

And there is no real support for his political disputes, and even the backers are skeptical. Therefore, the real opponent this time is not who it is, but the general concept and mentality of the court officials... Li You sighed with feeling, it is easy to kill people, but it is difficult to punish the heart.

Impulsiveness is the devil. He regretted it a little now. From the perspective of official technology, it is a good choice to hurriedly encourage the inmates and at the same time rush the newspaper to work. On the one hand, it is possible to create personal prestige. On the other hand. You can transfer the pressure to the court and reduce your own responsibilities - no one is to blame for the officials. This official has done his best to do his duty, and it will be the responsibility of the imperial court to make any more trouble in the future.

But he ignores the peculiarities of the newspaper industry, which is no longer a technical issue, but a political one. It can even rise to the ideological level, involving the power and rights of the imperial court, officials and the people, and if you investigate it deeply, it may also involve the Son of Heaven, which is even more complicated.

So to a certain extent, he was really asking for trouble this time, and Master Li couldn't help but retreat when he thought about it. He is not afraid to fight people, but it takes more courage to challenge things that cannot be seen or touched, such as rules and traditions.

Now that he has shouted out the call of the new opening and the newspaper monk, and his name has also been established, whether it can continue or not, the relationship is not very big, right? Anyway, the wicked were made by the imperial court.

According to the general laws of history in the impression, if the pioneers of the industry do not judge the situation, the end will not be better. Master Li was speechless for a long time, and fell into a tangle, and also didn't speak for a long time.

But in the eyes of others, there is a strange sense that something is abnormal, that is, a demon. Faced with Yuan Ge Lao's questioning, he actually started to stay, what's wrong? The person who can seal Li You's mouth should not have been born yet

Yuan Ge, who had suffered several losses on Li You, secretly pinched a cold sweat for no reason, could this be the calm before the storm? The last person who forced Li You to shut up and not speak was Duan's father-in-law, and everyone saw his fate.

At this time, the stone sacrifice wine standing with Li You suddenly spoke, broke the deadlock, and asked Jiang Yuan Pavilion Elder rhetorically: "I think that Pavilion Elder is wrong with this!" If Guozijian does not run a newspaper, will there be no constraints on controversy and criticism? ”

Lord Shi said as soon as he spoke, and the hall was full of surprise. First, I was surprised that Li You, who used his lips as a gun and his tongue as a sword, had no intention of speaking to refute at all. Li You actually shrunk! Actually shrunk!

The second is the attitude of being surprised by the stone sacrifice wine, isn't it that he can't control Li You, so he has no choice but to ask the court for instructions? Everyone can understand this, why did they stand up and question Yuan Ge Lao at this moment?

When no one answered when he was surprised, Shi Lun continued to say unhurriedly: "The thoughts of the princes here, this official has the courage to peek into one or two. In the matter of newspapers, the public is a little short-sighted, and they think that they can't take it! ”

When Lord Shi's second sentence came out, even Li You, the first winner of the double achievement of the Imperial History of the Great Tree, the Imperial Staff and the Edict of the Imperial Prison, the spokesperson of the image of the Great Ming Yanguan, and the outspoken man recognized by the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China, wanted to worship the five bodies.

The stone sacrificial wine is inclined to be reported in the Guozi Supervisor, whether it is public or private, it is beneficial for both public and private, Lord Shi has no reason to disagree, but there are different opinions on the method, and Li You knows this. So when Lord Shi stood up and asked Yuan Ge Lao just now, Li You was not surprised, but Lord Shi's second sentence was really too shocking.

He Li You is no longer unscrupulous, but the bottom line in his heart is still very clear. One yard is one yard, on the basis of facts, on people, on people, never dared to let go of "You six bachelors and Jiuqing have no knowledge" like this sweeping a map cannon without survivors.

This stone sacrificial wine is indiscriminately discharging map cannons, is it to pull yourself into the water? Or is it deliberately anti-water and acting as a pig-like teammate? Li You spent the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, quietly moved his position, and took a few steps away from Lord Shi.

But he said that the big guys, the well-cultivated ones turned a deaf ear, and the poorly cultivated ones such as Yuan Ge Lao couldn't help but shoot the case angrily, and scolded: "Shi Lun, you are presumptuous!" ”

Shi Xijiu was indifferent to Yuan Ge Lao's reprimand, his face was very calm, and he looked around at everyone and asked, "Do you remember the Donglin Academy and the resumption of the society back then?" ”

Although a hundred years have passed, how can anyone who does not know about Donglin Academy and Fushe? Some smart people immediately vaguely guessed why Shi Saijiu suddenly mentioned the Donglin Party and the Fu Society, because both of them were initiated and strengthened by the opposition scholars, and they controlled public opinion very much, and the implication was extremely wide, and the imperial court could not help it.

Master Shi asked and replied to himself: "Donglin, Fushe and other people manipulate public opinion, judge people, and set up portals in the people, so that to the point of controlling the government and politics, and the public here does not take it as a warning? ”

Xu Shoufu looked directly at the stone sacrifice wine, "So what?" Lord Shi is not alarmist. ”

"I have been an official in the local government for many years, but I have a deep memory in Gusu. At that time, rumors were spread all over the streets, and the people were ignorant and indisputable, so that even the next participation in politics was besieged and humiliated. Although there is no immediate worry, but see the subtle knowledge, if it is enlarged to the world, it is inevitable that there will be a repeat of the Donglin incident! ”

Lord Shi talked about the past when he was almost beaten by people who didn't know the truth in Suzhou, although he exposed his ugliness, his tone was very flat, as if he was talking about someone else's business, as if another protagonist who made a bad plot against him was not around. This made Li You quite dumbfounded, this Lord Shi's psychological quality is really strong to a certain level.

The stone sacrifice wine talked eloquently, "In this way, I will realize that there is not a smooth relationship between the court and the people, which is not a good thing." There are many kinds of folk discussions, especially in wealthy places, and the most popular places in the style of literature! But what is worrying is that although there are hundreds of opinions of each school, there is no word of the court in the people's discussions, and the public opinions are all out of the opposition. Don't you think you're worried? ”

The only newspapers and proclamations in the imperial court are copying government decrees, which are not widely circulated and boring and dry, and have no effect on the people! After thinking about it hard, it was not until Master Li proposed to run a newspaper that it suddenly became clear that private newspaper copying was prevalent, so it was natural that an official newspaper could also be issued. What is education, this is the greatest education in the world today! Do you think so?

In the next thought, with the official report, there are four benefits. First, open up the way of speech and dredge public opinion, you must know that public opinion is like mountains and rivers, and it can be dredged but not blocked; second, to control public opinion and guide people's hearts with the right path; Third, to gather those who cannot enter the ranks, especially those who are outstanding; Fourth, promote good and conceal evil, and educate the atmosphere. Do you think so? ”

The scholars and Jiuqing listened to the words of the stone sacrifice wine, thought deeply in their hearts, and couldn't help but nod their heads one after another. is worthy of the prestigious Lord Shi, the truth is extremely fair, and he is indeed dedicated to the sake of the imperial court.

Only Li You was shocked, this is not right! He is going to run an urban newspaper with a little needle to stimulate the eyes, listening to Lord Shi's tone, he wants to become the mouthpiece of the imperial court!

At this time, Shoufu Xu Ge Lao spoke, "The matter of running a newspaper can be tried on a trial basis, with Shixian Wine as the president, what do you think?" ”

"Good!" Several agreed.

Li You looked at the stone sacrifice wine with grief and indignation, the fortress was really broken from the inside, and he, Lord Shi, betrayed the revolution and stole the fruits of victory! In the past two days, I saw him deflated in front of him, so he was negligent!
