Mao Wenlong, this is a headache!

Yang Reform muttered to himself, how should this Mao Wenlong be solved?

Yang Gengai asked: "Didn't you pay two million taels of silver last time to make up the military salary?" Why didn't you send it to him? "Yang Reform is strange. Isn't Mao Wenlong an official of my Ming Dynasty? Didn't pay him his share last time? Otherwise, why would you come and ask for silver? It's only been a few days?

"Your Majesty, it was Lord Mao who heard that the emperor had repaid the military salary of two million taels of silver, so he came to ask for the salary."

"Why? Didn't you count Mao Wenlong's army in my Ming Dynasty? "Yang reform is a bit of a fire. Anyway, Mao Wenlong is still an official of the Ming Dynasty. You don't want to see him, and you don't need to dig a pit for him like this and "frame" him.

"Your Majesty, if it weren't for the ministers who didn't count Lord Mao in my Ming Dynasty, it was really his Lord Mao's [***] side, the money and grain of the army and horses were not subject to the core, how could the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households allocate money and food for him? If there is more, the emperor's silver will be in deficit, and if it is less, Lord Mao is not happy, which really makes Weichen embarrassed, so there is no money and food allocated to Lord Mao. "This official's speech is very standard, on the one hand, he is afraid of the emperor, and on the other hand, he is afraid of Mao Wenlong, this is a living "killing", hidden murder. It seems that in the eyes of this group of ministers, Mao Wenlong is already a thorn in the eye, a thorn in the flesh, and the kind that will be killed anytime and anywhere.

"I remember that I seem to have approved the number of Mao Wenlong's troops before? How much? ”

"Your Majesty, 28,000 people, but Lord Mao does not accept the review and supervision of the imperial court, so this time the supplementary salary will not be reissued to Lord Mao, how to act, please ask the emperor to show me."

This is a bad thing, and it is also a normal requirement for the civil officials in the court to supervise Mao Wenlong's money, food, and soldiers. Of course, there is additional "drifting". Mao Wenlong didn't want to be supervised by the ministers, and he didn't want to be "floated", the reason was far-fetched, and he ended up arguing together. The result of the rhype was that Mao Wenlong gradually broke away from the control of the Ming Dynasty, and the ministers in the court regarded Mao Wenlong as a wolf with ambition and a rebellious existence. In the end, Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong. Only the boar skin laughed off the big teeth. If you are not afraid of god-like opponents, you are afraid of pig-like teammates, this sentence is not wrong.

Yang Reform has a headache, such a basket of bad things, the core is just two words, greed, Yang Reform doesn't have the heart to pay attention to this thing. After thinking about it, he said: "In this case, let it go and don't mention it for now, I have my own measure." ”

Mao Wenlong's request for salary, the emperor took it, the household department, the military department will no longer care about this matter, this matter is obviously a matter of settling with silver, the only thing the emperor has to do is to use the money from the treasury to subsidize Mao Wenlong. I'm afraid it doesn't have much to do with the imperial court.

……

The second thing is nothing more than unremarkable, the local disaster has suffered, and I ask for tax relief and support. Well, then give money.

……

Here comes the third thing.

"Your Majesty, please go to the imperial feast." An old minister came out and played.

"A feast?" It's the first time Yang has heard of this thing, and he thinks what kind of thing is this!

"What is this?" Yang Reform carried forward the good tradition of not being ashamed to ask questions.

"Back to Your Majesty, this sutra feast is specially for Your Majesty to lecture on history."

"What's so special about this? Lecture on history? "Yang Gengai didn't know anything about it. However, the air of intrigue rolls in.

"Your Majesty, the feast lectures, three times a month, once every ten years, this is a big lecture, Your Majesty and the ministers are participating, the etiquette is regular, in addition to a small lecture, every other day, the rules are not very much......"

……

"What's that about? History? "Yang Reform is very depressed, history is still needed, you tell me, I graduated from nine years of compulsory education, and my history grades are very good. I've even studied history hundreds of years later. You still tell me history?

"Back to Your Majesty, the first is to 'study the scriptures with taste' and explore the subtle meanings in the scriptures; the first is to 'use the past to prove the present', that is, to learn from history; and the third is to rest and cultivate virtue and cultivate virtue."

"This ...... Did it work? Yang asked weakly, really weakly. Yang Reform has already recalled, this is obviously these Ming Dynasty scholars and doctors want to "brainwash" themselves to educate! Every day, let Yang Reform learn the "subtle words" of the sage, learn "the past is the present", and cultivate the "virtue" of Yang Reform.

Yang Gai shouted in his heart: Damn, retribution is coming. I dreamed of "brainwashing" these scholars of the Ming Dynasty, but I didn't expect such a quick retribution to come, and the scholars of the Ming Dynasty were ready to give themselves an "anti-brainwashing".

"This, can you not go!" Yang Reform had a bitter face and didn't want to be "brainwashed".

"Your Majesty, this is a precedent, the rules passed down by the ancestors have regulations, and the ideas that non-ministers come up with haphazardly......"

Rules passed down from our ancestors? Could it be that all Confucian dynasties have to "brainwash" the emperor? Yang Gai suddenly felt terrible, afraid that he would change from a modern person to a pure "Ming Dynasty person". That would be "brain dead".

This is definitely revenge, there was a dispute with the ministers the day before yesterday, and a "letter" was written to Wei Zhongxian in the evening. I let myself be "brainwashed" this morning. This is definitely a deliberate act done by this group of ministers. Yang Reform thought maliciously.

……

"Your Majesty, please go to the royal feast." The ministers on the ground all fell to their knees, their voices loud and neat. Qi Qi asked Yang to take a political lesson.

Yang Reform still wanted to have a headache, a stomachache and something like that, and when he saw the minister below kneeling on the ground, he knew in his heart that he couldn't run away today. So, reluctantly, he said, "Then let's go to the 'sutra feast'." ”

"Your Majesty." A kind of sycophant shouted by the ministers together was particularly loud, but it was a pity that Yang Reform hated it to death.

A group of ministers followed from afar and went to the Wenhua Palace.

If you want to say that this sutra feast, there are really many rules. There are those who are responsible for turning books, those who are responsible for holding books, those who are responsible for explaining, and those who are reciting. Yang Gai realized that it seems that it is not only his own emperor who needs to receive political and ideological education, but also important ministers, of course, the emperor is the protagonist, and others are more like people who come to monitor the emperor in political classes.

The station sat down, and the feast finally began.

A person who looked like a lecturer came out and played: "Your Majesty, is Your Majesty lecturing on the scriptures or on history?" ”

Four Books and Five Classics? History? Yang Gai felt that he didn't need any of them. The Four Books and Five Classics all say that it is the stepping stone of the imperial examination, and he is the emperor, do you still want to be the champion? Do you still need to read the Four Books and the Five Classics?

Taizu Zhu Baba said that without the Four Books and Five Classics, he would not be able to be the emperor.

History? I am a person of the 21st century, not only familiar with the history before the Ming Dynasty, but also familiar with the history after the Ming Dynasty? Is it your turn to tell me history?

Yang was quite angry. It's a pity that it's hard to speak. I can't raise my voice and shout that I am a person from the 21st century, I know the history after the Ming Dynasty, I don't need you to teach me, if you want to do this, the Ming Dynasty has another crazy emperor. Become a laughing stock for people.

"Why, do you still need to talk about history? I am the Son of Heaven, and the Four Books and Five Classics are just stepping stones to the imperial examination. In fact, there were more vicious words, and Yang Reform did not say it. The imperial examination is just a cage for the emperor to envelop the elites of the world, didn't Li Shimin say: "Are all the heroes of the world in my place?" Therefore, the stepping stone for the emperor to study the imperial examination was really caught in the door. It was not the ministers whose heads were caught by the door, it was the (Confucian) ministers who clamped the emperor's head with the door panels.

The minister was ......frightened, and the lecturer who asked Yang Reform whether he was listening to the scriptures or discussing history was frightened. The other ministers were silent, when they didn't see it.

Yang Gengai sulked, knowing in his heart that if he didn't finish this scripture today, he might not be able to get out. Looking at the appearance of these ministers, it seems that they are going to die to the end.

"Let's talk about history." Yang reformed and compromised.

"Your Majesty wants to listen to that paragraph?" This lecturer is sandwiched between the emperor and the ministers, and he is not pleasing at both ends. For fear that the emperor would be unhappy, he would be unlucky.

"I said today that I talked to Zhong Aiqing about the deeds of Yue Pengju in the Southern Song Dynasty, so let's talk about him." In this way, Yang Reform "casually" chose a piece of history.

Yang Reform really wants to scold people, he is the emperor, he doesn't need to learn the "words of the sage" to gain fame, and he also learns to be a bird. When it comes to history, my middle school history grades are not very good, but as an otaku who has been reading novels all year round, at least I know the history of the next few hundred years, even if Zhuge Liang is in front of him, I don't dare to say that I am better than myself, and I still use your group of sour Confucians to teach myself history lessons?

As for saying that there is a truth in the "words of a sage" that can improve moral cultivation and improve moral cultivation, this is pure. Kong Lao Er is just one of the hundred families in the Spring and Autumn Period, when other people's families were in the Spring and Autumn Period, he was still "lobbying" everywhere to find a petty official to be a pawn, is he the only one here who has a "reason" and can improve his moral cultivation. Others are donkey dung eggs? There was no "reason" before Kong Laoer? Kong Lao Er is a natural "truth"? Without Kong, the second child can't improve his morality? Is it really that there is no butcher Zhang, so he wants to eat this hairy meat?

Yang was depressed. Annoyed. This is really a goose after many years, and now it is said to be pecked by geese. He single-mindedly "brainwashed" these sub-bureaucrats in the Ming Dynasty, trying to change the "brain structure" of the group of corrupt Confucians. I didn't expect to give myself such a play today.

In the early days, I thought they had a conspiracy, but now it seems that there is indeed a conspiracy. In the eyes of the ministers, he is too "elegant", and he needs to use the "words of a saint" to teach more. in order to become a talent.

Yang was extremely depressed and didn't come up with any good solutions. I don't want to "fight" with this group of bureaucrats, but this group of bureaucrats always can't get along with me.
