Chapter 21: Persuasion
In Hanliang Palace, Li Ping'an's life began to get better.
For the time being, he stood with Liu Gao, one of the five ministers.
reciprocated with peach, Liu Gao seemed to be repaying Li Ping'an, giving people and money, and helping Feng Linwan really attract a group of palace maids and eunuchs in the palace.
Let his voice finally no longer be confined in the Forbidden City, but can truly make his voice heard in the territory of the Tiansheng Dynasty.
Li Ping'an looked through the books in the palace and observed, and found that there was no power beyond ordinary people in this Tiansheng world, and at most with some skills, he could defeat one against ten.
"Your Majesty! Looking at the eunuch kneeling at his feet, Feng Lin didn't raise his head, as if he didn't hear it.
"Chen Daoqian, what is he doing here, if he wants to come, Sun Chaodong should come first, now there must be a picture, seeing is believing, hearing is false, look at what medicine he sells in the pot?" Li Ping'an pondered for a moment and decided to meet Chen Daoqian.
"Xuan, Taibao Chen Daoqian, come to you!" the shrill voice of the little eunuch sounded outside the door.
"Crunch," the door of Hanliang Palace was pushed open, and a tall figure walked in.
"Weichen, I've seen Your Majesty. Your Majesty is well. ”
Li Ping'an didn't say a word, and carefully looked at Chen Daoqian, the rumored Taibao who was honest and loyal.
The jet-black hair was neatly measured, and the purple official robe on his body was meticulous, and the whole person was radiant.
Chen Daoqian did not have the slightest arrogance like Liu Gao, and there was no one in his eyes. bent down quietly, respectfully to Li Ping'an, the famous and powerless son of heaven.
"Aiqing is flat, I don't know what happened when Taibao came to see me today?"
"Your Majesty! The private establishment of brocade guards violates the ancestral system and cholera the government program, which will inevitably lead to the danger of everyone in the government and the opposition, and even the common people, and the people will panic. ”
"Minister... I beg your majesty to retract your order and abolish the brocade guard. The needle drop in the hall could be heard, and Chen Daoqian's voice echoed in the empty hall, transmitting his words to Li Ping'an's ears.
He called it a 'plea', but in fact he did not have the slightest gesture of request, but more like persecution and threat.
Li Ping'an turned a deaf ear, just quietly looked at Chen Daoqian, and the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace did not dare to come out, and the solemn atmosphere slowly rose.
"Haha! Chen Aiqing, are you joking!" Li Ping'an burst out laughing to break the breathless atmosphere.
"Since we are talking about the ancestral system, when the first emperor was alive, he set the rule that the ministers should return all their rights when I became an adult, and return to the hometown to serve as a minister. Now that I am an adult, why is Chen Aiqing attached to a high position and refuses to retreat?"
Looking at the laughing mad son in front of him, Chen Daoqian's face changed several times.
Liu Gao is in charge of Jinyiwei, has the right to supervise hundreds of officials, set up a private prison, and play first. This kind of decentralization, just waiting for time to accumulate, will eventually snowball, into an irresistible and terrifying violent power monster institution.
This is a big threat to Chen Daoqian. Especially after Liu Gao consciously targeted him to govern the country according to law.
Therefore, Chen Daoqian only came today, met the Son of Heaven, and directly bullied him, wanting Li Ping'an to take back his life.
As long as the existence of Jinyiwei is not correct and his words are not good, then Chen Daoqian has a hundred ways to make the forces formed by Liu Gaoxin collapse.
"Chen Aiqing, don't be in a hurry! This Liu Gao's formation of Jinyi Wei is also good for you and me!"
"The purpose of the CPIC is to promote the rule of virtue, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and let the world be peaceful. I encourage you to do this together!" Li Ping'an said with awe.
Chen Daoqian just sneered. A person like him, with a hard mind and an iron temperament, would not be persuaded by Li Ping'an's casual words.
"Aiqing, if you want to achieve moral politics, but there is a long way to go, not to mention that the children of the family headed by the university scholar Sun Chaodong are obstacles, and those officials with vested interests are also solid stones. ”
As he spoke, Li Ping'an took out a book from his sleeve and threw it to Chen Daoqian, after getting it, Chen Daoqian opened the book in his palm and began to look at it, and after reading a few pages, his eyes gradually brightened.
"Your Majesty, this is ......" Although Chen Daoqian forcibly endured the excitement in his heart, the trembling voice had already betrayed himself.
The books thrown out by Li Ping'an were copied from Confucianism in China in his previous life, and he liked to study Confucianism when he was fine in his previous life, and now it comes in handy.
After the emergence of Confucianism, there were Confucius, Mencius, Xunzi's pre-Qin Confucianism, Dong Zhongshu's exclusive respect for Confucianism and the idea of the unity of heaven and man, Han Yu's Taoism, the Northern Song Dynasty Zhou Dunyi, Ercheng, Zhang Zai and the Southern Song Dynasty Zhu Xi's science, Lu Jiuyuan, Wang Yangming's psychology, Gu Yanwu and others' classics.
Confucianism cannot be said to be bad, but it only emphasizes excessive moral cultivation, which is not bad in itself, but overemphasizing the rule of virtue and ignoring the rule of law has caused the lack of the entire society at the institutional level.
Confucianism, under the guidance of the idea of sexual goodness, developed a pan-moralism. Facts have proved that morality can only manage people's upper line, while the rule of law can manage people's bottom line.
But now when he meets Chen Daoqian, who wants to implement moral politics, it can be said that he has pointed out the way forward.
Confucianism is only advocated by the upper line, and there is no restriction on the bottom line, which will only cause a serious lack of rule of law thinking in society in the end and cause greater problems.
"How about it? Now I believe that I and Aiqing have the same philosophy!" Li Ping'an looked at Chen Daoqian with a smile.
"Your Majesty, where did you get this precious book, it's simply ......," Chen Daoqian clutched the book in his hand tightly and asked Li Ping'an incessantly.
If I want to promote the rule of virtue, then we must let more people agree with this concept. ”
"Why don't you take advantage of Liu Gao's muddy water to open the imperial examination. Attract a large number of children from poor families to enter the court as officials and compete with the family, and this matter will be handed over to Aiqing. Li Ping'an threw out the token and the holy decree from his hand again.
After Chen Daoqian picked up the holy decree and token on the ground, he left Hanliang Palace in silence for a moment.
Chen Daoqian found that he had underestimated the Son of Heaven before, and knew that there was an ulterior secret in it, but for the sake of the concept in his heart, he had to eat it.
"At present, it can be regarded as temporarily winning over the two ministers who care for their lives," Li Ping'an knew in his heart that no matter how good Liu Gao said, Jin Yiwei would only become a tool for him to use his power for personal gain in the end, rather than a sword in the hands of Li Ping'an, the Son of Heaven.
Li Ping'an is also taking advantage of the threat posed by Liu Gao to coerce officials like Chen Daoqian, who are loyal to the ideas of the people of the world, to carry out the imperial examination according to their own ideas and abolish the recommendation.
The so-called right is sometimes to weigh the interests of all parties, and then find a balance point and act as that balance point.
Li Ping'an only needs to be a good referee and stand up at the critical moment to pull the bias, and that's fine. As for the completion of the required afterward. The direction of the Tiansheng Dynasty is related to itself.
