After getting off the court, Qingji came to the Zide Hall to deal with daily government affairs. The concerto, which is piled up like a hill, is waiting for Qingji's approval.

Of course, Qingji is one

The monarch who "neglects his administration" will not bow down to everything, so the daily government affairs are generally reviewed by the prince, Dazai and other important ministers of the court, and then presented to Qingji.

Qingji only needs to look at one side and give

"Quasi" or

A "no" comment is sufficient. At this time, Qingji said that he was dealing with daily government affairs, but in fact, he was reviewing whether there were any omissions in the government affairs handled by Prince Heng, who was in charge of supervising the regent of the country, in the past year.

When Qingji checked the chapter, Prince Heng also knelt respectfully under the throne. Sandalwood birds, a breeze blowing.

I don't know how long it took, but Qingji put down the music in his hand. Facts have proved that Prince Heng is indeed impeccable in handling government affairs.

"Wu Heng, when the widow was not in the court, you were the regent of the country, and you did a very good job, everything was in order, and there were some subtleties, and even the widow asked himself, which was not as good." Qingji gave a very high evaluation.

Prince Heng bowed to Qingji very humbly and said, "Father praised it. ”

"The sons can handle the government affairs in an orderly manner, and deal with the big and small government affairs of the country, just because there are Ji Ran, Kong Qiu and other ministers around him, if not, it is difficult for the sons to sort out the clue." Hearing this, Qingji smiled slightly and said: "You can be as good as a stream, listen to advice, and know how to make good use of people, this is a rare and valuable monarch's talent." ”

"Still, the widow has a word of warning for you. If you listen to both, you will be clear, and if you listen partially, you will be dark. ”

"You've been getting too close to Kong Qiu, Zeng Dian, and Yan Hui recently, and the widow knows that you want to win them over for your own use. However, none of them are really capable of governing the country and the world. ”

"No." Prince Heng lowered his head and said, "Father, my son has been taught." ”

"Wu Heng, don't believe it." Knowing the son is more than the father. Looking at Prince Heng's appearance, Qingji shook his head and said, "In your opinion, is Kong Qiu a great talent?" ”

"Yes."

"Is it a genius for governing the world?"

"This ......" Prince Heng hesitated. The answer he gave may not satisfy Qingji. Qingji didn't sell Guan Zi either, and told Prince Heng bluntly, and said slowly: "Wu Heng, Kong Qiu has great talents, but he lies in the merit of education, not in governing the country. ”

"Of course, it is undeniable that he has indeed made achievements in governing the country."

"However, governing the country with Confucianism is in line with the royal way, but it is not in line with hegemony, nor is it in line with the consistent legal system of my Great Wu."

"The talent of Confucius is at most like a child, governing a country of a thousand times. With such a vast territory and a large population, it is impossible to effectively govern it by relying only on education. ”

"You, understand?" Prince Heng Zhengse said: "Father, the son understands. This time, Prince Heng really understood.

"Wu Heng, do you think that I am a big Wu...... Should the wisdom of the people be turned on? Qing Ji asked meaningfully.

It seemed that he had guessed that Qingji might ask questions again, and after Prince Heng pondered for a while, he said: "Back to my father, my son thinks that it is natural to open up the wisdom of the people." ”

"Whether it is Deng Xi or Kong Qiu, the two schools of Confucianism and Law, and even the hundred schools of thought, all have one purpose for the government of Wu State, which is to maintain the supremacy of royal power and ensure the interests of the people, so the thoughts of the sons and hundreds of schools of thought are the same way." After a pause, Prince Heng said again: "During the Shang Dynasty, the world was ignorant, no matter what they did, they had to divinate and predict the good fortune and evil. ”

"Hexagram Xiangji, then for it. If the hexagram is fierce, it is not. ”

"For the king, the way or meaning is not the same, but almost all major events are auspicious."

"The emperor and princes proclaimed the world, this is the will of God, and he only does this in accordance with the will of heaven."

"Therefore, whether it is the source of his power or the decisions he makes, it will be considered by the people of the country to be under the control of God, which is completely reasonable."

"After King Wu defeated the Zhou Dynasty and replaced the Shang, in order to avoid causing disputes, the world was panicked, and the Zhou people started another 'stove'."

"The Zhou people emphasized that there was no master in the world, and only those who were capable, talented, and virtuous would have it."

"Therefore, the Great Zhou Dynasty has continued for hundreds of years, and although it has declined for more than a hundred years, it has not died out." Prince Heng sighed and said: "Whether it is the Shang Dynasty or the Zhou Dynasty, the means used to govern the people are nothing more than foolish people. ”

"Fooling people. If the father follows suit, the sons think that it will make the national Zuo of Dawu inferior to the third generation of Xia Shang. ”

"For the great Wu Wanshi lineage, I also ask my father to establish a system of official learning, open up the wisdom of the people, let the scholars be loyal to the monarch and serve the country, and be loyal to the king of Wu and the country of Wu with full of enthusiasm!" Hearing this, Qingji glanced at Prince Heng with appreciation.

This kind of words, even if they are noble and noble like Qingji and Prince Heng, can only be talked about in private, who dares to say it in front of outsiders?

That in itself is deviant. However, it is also a real thing. Xia, Shang, Zhou, and Qin, these four dynasties, there is no big problem in inheritance.

After all, they are all from aristocratic backgrounds, and their ancestors are prominent historical figures. It was different in the Han Dynasty. Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty, was a real rogue, completely different from the previous emperors of aristocratic origin.

He relied on the scoundrel way in the market to defeat Xiang Yu, who was rich in aristocratic spirit. From this point on, let people know that sometimes the process of doing things is negligible, as long as there is a good result.

What kind of prince will Xiangning have? Rao is like this, the brazen Liu Laosan still made up a more evil legend for himself.

He said that his mother gave birth to him with a dragon. Of course, it is fabricated through the literati below, and then disseminated.

So the emperor of the Han family began to get close to God, claiming that he was the son of heaven and that the power was also given by God, and let himself manage the world instead of him...... The monarchy is bestowed, nothing more than that.

"Wu Heng, do you know the disadvantages of opening up people's wisdom?"

"This ...... I don't know. After thinking about it several times, Prince Heng still didn't think of the drawbacks of opening up the people's wisdom. Qingji squinted his eyes and said slowly: "Every time you slaughter more dogs, you are the most responsible reader." ”

"The human heart is unpredictable. One day, when my Great Wu is incompetent and even a tyrant, it is very likely that the scholars cultivated by the Wu State will be the first to stand up and overthrow the rule of the kings of later generations. ”

"This is something that no one can tolerate." Hearing this, Prince Heng shook his head and said, "Father, my son thinks it may not be. ”

"Through indoctrination, my Wu State may not be able to cultivate loyal and patriotic, foolish and loyal people."

"If the destiny of heaven lies with Wu, why should my father worry about thousands of years from now, or even thousands of years from now?"
