Chapter 460: Promote Vernacular Writing and Pinyin for the Benefit of Unification!

Zhang Gui smiled faintly, looked at Fan Wencheng who was kneeling in front of him, and replied to Zhu Youxiao: "Your Majesty doesn't know, this person's real name is Fan Wencheng, because the Xichang hoe traitor department has long been eyeing him, and he has also painted a lot of portraits of him, but this person is cunning, and he has repeatedly failed to get rid of the hoe traitor department, and now he is even hiding in Beijing!" Although the hoe traitor has not been able to get rid of him, almost everyone in the minister and the West Factory has already remembered his appearance and characteristics. Therefore, as soon as he was taken, the ministers recognized him! ”

"The West Factory Hoeing Division?"

Zhu Youxiao muttered a sentence, and then asked Zhang Gui: "So, he has voted for Jiannu and been a traitor before?" ”

Zhang Gui nodded: "That's right!" This person has long served Jiannu, and when Shenyang fell, he took the initiative to join Jiannu, and he was also one of the Han people who Lichen asked Nurhachi, Huang Taiji and other cadres to destroy my Ming Dynasty and my Chinese country! ”

After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao's eyes when he looked at Fan Wencheng were undoubtedly even more severe!

"Good you Fan Wencheng! You are so bold! ”

Zhu Youxiao said.

Fan Wencheng was already shocked at this time, and only kowtowed like garlic and said: "The emperor spares his life, the emperor spares his life!" The students are also forced, if the students don't do this, the slaves will be killed! ”

Zhu Youxiao snorted: "This is not a reason!" As a scholar, even if you can't be martyred for the country, you shouldn't sacrifice the entire country and nation to achieve your own wealth and fame! It can be seen that you are such a shameless person! Even if you have already escaped, you still want to harm my Ming! If I don't cut you with a thousand knives, how can I correct the hearts of the people in the world?! ”

Fan Wencheng heard Zhu Youxiao say that he was going to cut him with a thousand knives, and he was immediately frightened and fainted.

He didn't expect that he would end up at this point.

Boom!

A large basin of ice water suddenly poured on Fan Wencheng's head.

Fan Wencheng suddenly felt a chill hit his whole body, woke up, and looked at Zhu Youxiao and Zhang Gui tremblingly.

At this time, Zhu Youxiao continued to ask Fan Wencheng: "Tell me, which powerful bureaucrats have taken you in and know your true identity?" ”

Zhang Gui said: "Hurry up, this may reduce your punishment." ”

Fan Wencheng hurriedly confessed, confessed a total of more than a dozen powerful people, and also explained their plot to plot together to smear Zhang Gui, force Zhang Gui to leave, and embezzle the profits of Daming's steam industry.

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao ordered Wei Zhongxian to follow the plan, directly arrested more than a dozen powerful people, and then all of them were punished.

At the same time, Princess Le'an also called her housekeeper Hu Jiuniang and Yiganjiao Mama to her, and asked in a deep voice: "Concubine Zhou used to speak wildly, slandering the palace and the uncle of the country for adultery, at that time, only you could hear it, but now let the outside know it, and only you will know." Now you speak honestly as soon as possible, so that our master and servant can gather together and disperse. ”

was reminded that Princess Le'an had begun to suspect that these grandmothers in front of her were spreading these things because of the rumors of her adultery with Uncle Zhang Guo outside, so she summoned her housekeeper and the teaching grandmother to meet her and inquire carefully.

And the housekeeper Hu Jiuniang and the mother of the teacher naturally did not dare to admit this kind of rumor about the princess.

So, the whole scene was deadlocked.

Seeing this, Princess Le'an had no choice but to say: "Since this is the case, the palace can only ask the Zongren Mansion to drive you all out of the mansion!" Hire people to come to the princess's mansion again! ”

Hu Jiuniang and the other sects were shocked when they heard this.

Hu Jiuniang was the first to complain bitterly: "Your Highness, even if some of us are at fault, we shouldn't be driven away!" ”

Princess Le'an sneered and asked, "What, do you still want to wait for the people who were called to the Zongren Mansion by the palace to force you to return the jewelry and jewelry that you stole to pay off your relatives?" ”

At this moment, Hu Jiuniang and the others didn't dare to say anything, but just left here obediently.

With Concubine Zhou, Hu Jiuniang and other people being disposed of, plus Fan Wencheng and others being disposed of, the unfavorable rumors about Zhang Gui gradually dissipated in the future.

Zhang Gui still focused on monetary reform.

Therefore, Zhang Gui also demanded that the trade between Xichang and Waiyi should use the new Ming silver coins, and no longer use the currency of Waiyi.

And in this way, it also forced the foreign merchants to come to Daming to exchange silver coins.

As a result, the silver coins of the Ming Dynasty have been further developed.

For this reason, Bi Ziyan also specially mentioned this matter to Zhang Gui, saying that the increase in demand for silver coins in the Ming Dynasty has increased more revenue for the Ming treasury, and he hopes to increase the production of silver coins.

Zhang Gui took the opportunity to remind Bi Ziyan that "the output can be increased, but it is necessary to prevent the phenomenon of landlords and wealthy merchants storing silver coins and not using them, resulting in a shortage of silver coins in the market, and as a result, the imperial court has consumed a lot of silver for the production of a large number of silver coins." Therefore, it is better to replace silver coins with paper money as soon as possible, and first use sufficient reserves to print a batch of large-amount silver money banknotes, which is not only for the convenience of trading, but also for the future to turn silver coins into paper money, and to avoid the aggravation of the phenomenon of large silver coins. After all, if you only let the big households pay for banknotes, it is better to use more. ”

Bi Ziyan nodded: "What His Highness said is that the household department will have an idea." ”

Then, Zhang Gui said to Wen Tiren and Bi Ziyan and the Minister of Decision-making: "The reform of the Ming Dynasty has involved all aspects at this point, but there is only one aspect, which has not been reformed, which has a great hidden danger to the long-term stability of the society in the future. ”

"Which one?"

Lu Xiangsheng asked at this time.

Zhang Guiyan said: "Pinyin of Chinese characters and vernacular culture of articles! ”

"Vernacular?"

The ministers glanced at each other, curious.

Zhang Gui continued: "Vernacular writing, that is, in the future, articles should be as flat and straightforward as possible, mainly in the vernacular, so that the common people can understand more easily, especially the articles of Di Bao and various newspapers and periodicals must be easy to understand, so as to facilitate propaganda and enlightenment. ”

Qian Xiangkun, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, frowned and asked, "Does this affect the beauty of the article too much?" ”

Zhang Gui asked: "Is it true that vernacular writing is beautiful, not to mention, is writing for good looks or to let people understand their own thoughts?" ”

Wen Tiren nodded at this time: "In the end, His Royal Highness is more thoughtful, whether the Ming Dynasty will continue to have long-term peace and stability in the future, it is indeed whether the people's wisdom is opened, whether the people in the world understand the imperial style, know the country, at least can understand what situation they are in now." ”

"That's right! If we don't guide the people well, and don't let the people have the wisdom to think, then we will be used by the cult and demons to bewitch us! and then against the imperial court. ”

Zhang Gui said: "Our concept of governing the country must come from the people, and we must go to the people!" As for pinyin, it is also to make it easier for people from all walks of life in the north and south of the world to communicate, and benefit the unification! ”
