Chapter 748: In Nandu II

"With repair, everything has been arranged, if there is no accident, this joke now will have reached Huang Jin's ears." Wang Henian said.

Yang Shen nodded and said, "Brother Wang, it's hard work." ”

Wang Henian said: "It's all for Your Majesty, what's hard or not, it's just that I have a little question and want to ask for advice." Why are you doing this? "Wang Henian didn't have a clue about what Yang Shen did, saying that he was currying favor with Huang Jin first, not like that. said that he didn't want to please Huang Jin, what he gave Huang Jin was enough for the expenses of the Ministry of Rites for a month or two.

What exactly do you want to do at such a big cost?

This is what Wang Henian does not understand.

Yang Shen said: "Jiajing is also dizzy, he sent someone over, but he just wanted to find out the details of Dongyong, and to show goodwill." Meant to appease. I don't believe that Jiajing will be willing to let His Highness gain a firm foothold in Nanyang, and as soon as Yongguo grows stronger, Jiajing will be restless for a day, and if it goes on like this, he may not even be able to sleep. ”

"What does that have to do with Huang Jin?" Wang Henian asked.

"There are still people in the court who understand, and when my father was there, he prevented Jiajing from fighting against Dongyong, and I think the same is true for Yang Yiqing and others. Even if they don't have the prestige of their father, but they can bring enough trouble to Jiajing, at this time it is very important to give Jiajing a supporter to go south, Huang Jin is a good minister, if he actively promotes, the court goes south, then the Ming Dynasty's strategy to go south has almost been determined. Yang Shen said.

Wang Henian was taken aback and said, "Do you want to put His Highness to death?" ”

Yang Shen said: "What do I mean to kill His Highness? Brother Wang has been in Dongyong all the year round, don't you understand the true power of Dongyong? To be honest, in my opinion, His Royal Highness is working hard to go south, and it is not easy to open up land in the barbarian land, it is better to wave the army to the north, even if he wins, he is the supreme in the world, and if he loses, he can plunder the population from the coast and speed up the development of the South Seas, and the Dongyong Sailor is unparalleled in the world, even if the Dongyong Sailor is defeated, there is no danger. ”

Wang Henian was hesitant, he still felt that it was inappropriate, if he knew that Yang Shen was going to do such a thing, he would definitely not help.

At the beginning, Wang Henian also had the help of Yang Shen to gain a firm foothold in Dongyong.

You must know that not all the people who have fallen into the subordinates are not talented, but more because he only has that little ability.

Wang Henian is such a person, but he is just a mediocre official, only because of his old qualifications, he became the secretary of the Dongyong Ministry of Shangshu, a third-grade official, and became famous.

But in fact, his ability is not much higher than that of the bureaucrats of the Ming Dynasty when he was the prefect of the county, and he panicked at this time.

Yang Shen snorted coldly, he knew that Wang Henian couldn't make a big deal, and said: "What's the panic, this matter has me, nothing does without you, you just have to put your mind down." I will personally go and explain it to His Highness. ”

When Yang Shen designed Huang Jin here. Xia Yan came to the place of Dongyong's henchman.

Xia Yan didn't want to see Huang Jin. He first took a turn outside the Nandou Palace, not only to see the palace, but also to see the soldiers outside the palace.

These are the elite of Dongyong's elite. They all looked like wooden chickens.

Xia Yan said secretly: "Dongyong's strength is there, but whether Dongyong has bad intentions or not, it is not something that can be seen by looking at these, how can I visit Dongyong's movements?" ”

Xia Yan looked at the square between the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Nandou Palace from afar.

It is said that this square is open and there is no restriction on entry, if there is any injustice, as long as you dare to come here to cry out for injustice, you will immediately not be known by Zhu Houhuang.

But the common people are timid, and rarely dare to wander here, and the population in the southern capital is still small, and there are few people in this square except for a few sweepers.

Xia Yan didn't dare to go over, he was afraid that he would be too conspicuous, not far from here were Dongyong's military key places, whether it was the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Privy Council, or the Nandou Palace, if Xia Yan had the opportunity to go in and have a look, he would definitely know the recent situation of Dongyong.

But Xia Yan knew that he couldn't get in at all, and suddenly Xia Yan thought of a place. He said secretly: "You may be able to know Dongyong's movements here." ”

This place is Dongyong Taixue.

The predecessor of Dongyong Taixue was Dongyongfu School. After moving here, it became Taixue.

The examination of Dongyong Taixue is very strict, and most of those who can pass the Dongyong Taixue examination can pass the official examination and become a member of the Dongyong official government.

Although Dongyong Taixue is strict, it is still loose after all in terms of learning style.

After Xia Yan entered, he debated with several students, but after just a few words, they were speechless.

After all, the focus of Dongyong Taixue has never been on the essence of Confucianism, but on practice. However, Confucianism has been deeply rooted in Dongyong and cannot be shaken. No matter how much Zhu Houhuang cuts it, he can't delete Confucianism.

"Mr. Xia's knowledge is extremely profound, but it is a pity that he is extremely knowledgeable." One student said.

Xia Yan said: "Oh, but I don't know what pity I have. ”

"It's a pity that Mr. Xia is a talented learner, so there is no place for him?" Another student said.

Xia Yan said: "Why do you say this? ”

"His Royal Highness likes the former Han Dynasty the most, and has always regarded 'the Han family's own system, which is originally a tyrant, but how can it be purely moral, and Zhou politics?' Therefore, in Dongyong, Mr. is a scholar, and if he can't eat it, he will be looked at differently from above. There is no future. It's easy to get out of the business in Dongyong, but if you want to get out of the world, you have to learn more practice. ”

As soon as Xia Yan heard this, he originally had a little good impression of King Yong, but he immediately became even worse. Xia Yan endured it and didn't say anything, and said, "What is the Dongyong official test?" ”

"The meaning of the scriptures and the questions of the scriptures, the meaning of the scriptures is just sticking to the scriptures, and the questions are the focus."

Xia Yan said: "What is the general question of the question? ”

"It's generally Dongyong practice. In order to let Taixue understand more about practice, His Royal Highness has a library in Taixue with a lot of Dongyong's archives. ”

Xia Yan was overjoyed when he heard it. Secretly said: "I didn't expect that it would take no effort to step on the iron shoes and find nowhere to get them." He immediately figured out how to enter the library from the students.

Taixue's style of study is very relaxed, but if you want to learn something, you have to work hard.

Xia Yan took a lot of effort to talk to the professor in Taixue, but the professor only felt that Xia Yan's attainments in Confucianism were still above him, so he immediately opened a certificate, and Xia Yan had to enter the library.

Xia Yan raised his head and saw the words "Tianyi Pavilion" and walked in.

Heaven is born of water, four or six percent, this is a sentence in the Book of Changes. The library is most afraid of fire, so one or two words of the day are used to suppress the fire.

This name was not conceived by Zhu Houhuang, Tianyi floor is in Zhejiang, and it is the largest folk library in later generations. Zhu Houhuang just borrowed the name.

As soon as you enter the Tianyi Pavilion. Xia Yan felt too big.

Rows of books are stacked on shelves, filling almost all places, and this is just a library section.

However, Xia Yan took a closer look and found a problem.

The books here are divided into three parts, one of which is a subset of the scriptures and histories of the Ming tradition.

In this regard, in Xia Yan's view, although there are many books in this collection, it is not complete. The other part is Dongyong's information, which is more.

Almost every year, the paperwork after filing is left here. It's just a place to back up. In order to let these students know how to do things, Zhu Houhuang backed up almost all the documents from each county here for everyone to study.

Of course, the really secret things that can't be known to outsiders are still in Ouchi, or the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The third category is the Yiren translation.

It's not too many, but it's not too little.

Dongyong's exchange with Spain is only about once a year. Anyway, there was some communication with each other.

Zhu Houhuang promoted the movement of translating Western books, although Magellan was still famous in the Sailor School, but he greatly promoted the movement of translating books, and he invited many scholars to Dongyong, perhaps these scholars were not first-class. But for Yo Dongyong, it was enough. However, the time is still short, and these books are still relatively few.
