"Let's not mention that there are only two provinces at the moment, and it is almost child's play to be called the emperor. Just look at their charter, seal the ninth ancestor, who is it? I don't even know which Lee my grandfather is, oh, this one could make one. Needless to say, what kind of road is this sealing hole? ”

The whole persuasion form was loyal and courageous, but the dark pit buried in it made Li Xian involuntarily think of the situation when he reviewed the imperial examination papers before.

The highlight of the Guangzhou Township Examination is a policy question, which depends on how the candidates understand the "Taoism".

"The Tao is written in Tang Yu, and its origin is derived from the three generations of Shangshu, which speaks of the common reliance of the heart and the heart of the Tao. After Confucius and Mencius, heresy swarmed, hundreds of schools of thought contended, and the Confucianism of the Han and Tang dynasties, such as Dong Zhongshu and Han Yue, rose and fell, and they were really laid in the scholars. However, Song died in Yashan, and he asked, Dao Tong and Song died together? ”

This question was written by Duan Hongshi, and the real intention is to erase the old sauce of Ming Shi Science in the hearts of readers, create public opinion, and make enough space for the new dynasty to implement a new concept of governance. If there is a standard answer, it should be "Yes, so my new Yinghua dynasty should establish a new Taoist system and re-inherit China." ”

The direction is so clear, the inducement is so clear, as long as you don't preset your position, even if you are an ordinary talent, you can figure out the intention of this question with a little brain. But most of the test papers read by Li Xian answered the questions, and the death of the Song Dynasty was just the death of a society, and Zhu Ming fought for Huaxia Zhengshuo again, and the Taoist system continued.

The scholars took the imperial examination, naturally to flatter the new dynasty and seek wealth, but on this kind of issue that points to their hearts, they are all subconsciously guarding their bottom line. The so-called Taoism is the truth of their readers, those who read the Four Books and the Five Classics, the scholars are there, the Taoism is there, the right to speak is in their hands, and the workers, peasants, soldiers, and businessmen are not qualified to mix.

The only thing that made Li Shi look at him differently was Zheng Zhiben, who was in his fifties and still came to the New Dynasty to take the exam. On this topic, he clearly said that the Song Dynasty broke off the Taoist system, and the Taoist system inherited by the former Ming Dynasty was not complete, and he also quoted two poems to describe his own mood changes.

The first song is "The cliffs and mountains of Haijiao are sloping, and they do not belong to China from now on." There is no fish belly to donate the ground, and there is ambergris? Looking at the Guanhe River is not a Han banner, blowing the remnants of the moon is a beard. The boss of Chang'e has nowhere to return, and he cries osmanthus alone. ”

This is the poem of Qian Qianyi, the "master of water is too cool", Li Xi had the so-called "there is no China after Yashan" in his previous life, many people think that it originated from the historian Naito Hunan, but in fact he took his so-called "Song Dynasty is the end of classical China" This academic view, and there is no emotion of the parties. On the contrary, it was Qian Qianyi, a former Ming relict who left many poems with emotions similar to "there is no China after Yashan", which is a metaphor for "there is no China after the death of the Ming Dynasty".

Zheng Zhiben said that he was also like Qian Qianyi before, and he was like a woman who lost his temper to Taoism, and he didn't know how to deal with himself in a panic, and he was just trying to survive. The rise of the new Yinghua dynasty made him reborn and resolutely defected to Guangdong to revive the Taoist system.

But then this guy turned his pen and quoted the second poem, almost making Li Xian's nose crooked.

"Is it Song Zhinanduye? It's a shame to be like that. Is it after the cliff mountain? I can't bear to look at it. I now began to understand the meaning of painting, crying bitterly if yes. Looking at the past and the present, swallowing does not need to be mouthful. ”

This Zheng Zhiben then stabbed and admonished, although the new dynasty swept away the bloody dust on the Taoist system, but also suppressed the smell of gold, silver and copper, so it would not be able to continue the Taoist system. If you want to revitalize the Song Dynasty, you have to completely Song Dynasty, and Song is not the way it is now. The new dynasty prospered industry and commerce, and abandoned agriculture, which is the way of Yang Zhu and the way of evil demons. He advised Li Shi to "reject officials from afar", reuse genuine scholars, and return to the correct path of Confucianism as soon as possible.

Li Xi didn't know that the second poem was Lu Liuliang's "Title Like This", he only felt that Zheng Zhiben hated it. The other talents are just stubborn, and Zheng Zhiben is not only stubborn, but also very cunning. It can be seen from the Xing Song system and the siege of Xinhui that the British and Korean dynasties treat scholars well, so they directly scolded on the test papers, wanting to stir up a controversy.

At that time, it was still the time of the Yizhang War, Li Shi didn't have time to cook, and the scholars who participated in the township test, including Zheng Zhiben, didn't think that they could have any results immediately. Now that half a month has passed since the war, Li Xi began to deal with internal affairs, and the scholars who had previously served the British Dynasty went to the persuasion table to ask him to be the emperor, and there was a meeting test after the township test, and the internal and external scholars had been forced to the throne of Li Shi.

There is a pit buried in the persuasion table of the sergeant, and that is the sealing hole. The family of Confucius is in Qufu, Shandong, under the rule of the Qing court, the meaning of the sergeant is to take the precedent of Confucius in the southern sect of the Yuan Dynasty, and find out the descendants of Confucius from the people under his rule to be knighted.

The name is persuasion, but in fact it is forced to the palace, this is Li Shi's "surname" for the persuasion table, sealing the hole is the first step, and then they will advance step by step, and Li Shi, the industrial and commercial craftsmen and the officers and soldiers who shed their blood to set up the new country, picked peaches. Cheap uncle Li Zhushou has no rotten Confucian complex, and he should have been bewitched by those scholars in this matter.

"But if they refuse, they have to go up again, again and again, and the momentum is getting louder and louder."

Li Zhushou was very embarrassed, he was not completely unconscious, and he even opposed being called emperor now. But he is now the head of the Shang Shu Hall, and his status is the same, and he must be in his hands on this matter, so he is still on the table.

"Take it to play with Xiaochan's origami airplane......"

Li Shi shrugged his shoulders, the scholars in the court were easy to deal with, and the headache was the group of scholars behind Zheng Zhiben.

"Oh, that's it...... Stay in the middle and don't send it. ”

Li Zhushou understood it well, but when he heard Li Xi talk about his daughter, his heart was shocked, isn't this a great opportunity?

"Hehe, the king of heaven is no longer the fourth brother, Xiaochan...... It's not the little girl chasing the corner of Mrs. Guan's skirt, she is already in the prime of her life this year, you see ...... king"

Jin Hai is twelve years old, Li Xian is slightly stunned, time flies, Li Zhushou's daughter, in his memory, is still a chubby little girl.

"Twelve years old, although a little younger......"

Li Xian's eyes were leisurely, and Li Zhushou was short of breath, great! Li Tianwang really has this heart! The backyard of this glazed palace is still very spacious, and it is enough to have a Chan Garden.

"But the boys under my seat are not too old, Jia Hao, Wu Ya, Yu Hanyi and others are two or three years younger than me, and they have been in the army for the past few years, and they have not had time to consider marriage for them, which is my dereliction of responsibility. Look which one your Xiaochan likes, I'll be this matchmaker. ”

When these words came out, Li Zhushou's graceful white face suddenly turned blue, and he said in his heart that those barbarian babies were mixed on the battlefield in the end, who knows when there will be three long and two short, it is better to find the Liu family brothers if you want to get married, or Su Wencai and Xue Xue's generation.

can think that there are only three around Li Xian, no, four, it's not right, it should be five women, and there is no wife, and it is really not worthy of the identity, how can he add new people in the future, Li Zhushou is very unwilling. The daughter of the secret road is still young, so it is better to try to create some opportunities in the future, so that Li Xi can take a fancy to his daughter.

Whether it is a sergeant in the court, or a township test to raise a child, after all, it is an ant in the palm of his hand, the strength is too small, Li Xi can calmly lay out, and he doesn't pay too much attention to the matter of persuading the table and Zheng Zhiben, and even puts on a graceful and generous posture, and points Zheng Zhiben to a person.

When Li Shi returned to Guangzhou, the more important task was to promote the layout of Yinghua industry and commerce. The Qing court was defeated, and it was necessary to drive its own industrial and commercial machinery to extract the maximum benefits from the situation, and at the same time eliminate the discordant sound that was still buzzing when the machine was running.

Unexpectedly, before the business matter began, a large group of foreigners came to the door. These guys are not businessmen, or they are not simple businessmen, An Jinzhi, who originally approached foreigners as a Nanyang company, had nothing to talk to these people, so he had to push the matter to Li Shi.

What kind of papal envoy Doro, this guy hasn't died of illness yet? What Jesuit will represent Lang Shining, wait, isn't this guy a painter? And what else is the special representative of the British East India Company, Popper, well? I heard that this guy used to have a history of intimate contact with Xiao Sheng and Jia Hao. As for the representative of the Governor of Macau, Ou Liwang, is your name begging for beating...... Looking at the list, and then looking at the officials of the Shangshu Hall who were sweating eagerly, Li Xianxin said that in the past six months, he has really delayed too many things, such as the institutional adjustment of the Tianwang Mansion, which was originally to start after the government went to the countryside and the civil constitution and commercial constitutional affairs were completed, but he turned his head and buried himself in the war.

Yinghua is very familiar with dealing with foreigners, but those are all commercial affairs, and now these foreigners want to talk about political affairs.

After thinking about it for a long time, I always felt that there was no one who could preside over foreign affairs, and it was difficult to find anyone who even passed on what these foreigners said after finishing this book.

"Tell Mrs. Jiuxiu and ask her to select people and build a translation team."

Li Shi issued such an order to his own court clerks.

His mind turned to the administrative structure of the Heavenly King's Mansion, and he felt that this matter was also very important, and it was best to solve it immediately, and Tian Dayou found it again.

"Yizhang War, there are too many new lessons and lessons, the Quartermaster Agency must adjust the production and research and development plan of guns and ordnance, fourth brother, our quartermaster and a group of people from the Foshan Manufacturing Bureau, I also want you to commend you in person, is it a trip to Foshan? A group of old people in our Qingtian Company also want to talk to the fourth brother. ”

Tian Dayou's words made Li Xian want to pat his head, why did he neglect his own uncles? The old man Guan Fengsheng has been buried in the Foshan Manufacturing Bureau, and he has not seen him since the New Year, such as Lin Dashu, He Gui, Wu Yaluo and Wu Chong's father and son, and they haven't had a good face-to-face chat for a long time.

Turning his mind to a new direction, Peng Xianzhong came to the door again, and he came to petition on behalf of Hunan businessmen. Since last year, thousands of Hunan businessmen who have been driven to Guangdong by Nian Qianyao and Ye Jiusi have now won a great victory in Yizhang, and they all hope that the British and Chinese troops will return to Changsha and restore their homeland.

"I have persuaded them, saying that military affairs are not child's play, and the king has his own arrangements, but they are eager to return to their hometowns, and many wealthy businessmen have joined forces to form a merchant group to protect them and seize the land by themselves. The Heavenly King defeated the Tartars in Yizhang, and they all felt that the Qing soldiers were vulnerable. ”

Hearing that the businessman was so enterprising, Li Xian gasped, this is unacceptable!

Breaking free from the gentle countryside of Yingde Baicheng, before he could heat up the throne of the Endless Palace, the mountain-like affairs overwhelmed his body, Li Xian's eyes were full of gold stars, and he sighed: "How do I feel like a defeated Kang Mazi?" I can't wait to have countless doppelgangers and fly around to mend holes. ”
