…

Waiting for Qian Guifei to wake up slowly in front of Qian Guifei's door, Li Cun, who was in a hurry, did not have the slightest impatience, and it was very similar to Zhao Ji waiting for Master Li to see him.

In other words, Li Cunzhen loves Concubine Qian so much?

It's true.

Although the speculation of the outside world is not entirely correct, it is really not unfounded.

Li Cun really loves Concubine Qian very much.

Li Cun not only named the Qian family and Wang Huiniang, who was his childhood sweetheart and was in charge of all his belongings, as a concubine at the beginning of his ascension to the throne, but also named Qian Guifei's father Qian Zai as the head of the household department and the three divisions of the Kaifu Yitong.

The key is that Qian Guifei also has one thing that none of Li Cun's concubines (including Queen Fang Baihua) have, that is, freedom.

Qian Guifei can leave the palace at any time without having to greet anyone.

Of course, Qian Guifei left the palace just to go to the research institute that Li Cun had prepared for her, the Royal Research Institute.

In fact, it cannot be said that this institute was specially prepared by Li Cun for Qian Guifei, in fact, it includes the vast majority of talents with research spirit and talent for invention and creation in the Daqian Dynasty and the top craftsmen in the country, and there is also an academic school that has been in seclusion for a long time - the Mo family.

The Mo family has a strict organization and strict discipline, and its leader is called "Juzi", and the next generation of Juzi is selected by the previous generation of Juzi to serve as a sage, which is passed down from generation to generation.

The disciples of the Momen are all called the Mo, and they must obey the orders of the giant and sacrifice their lives to implement the ideas of the Mohists.

The Mohists who were sent to various countries to serve as officials had to carry out the political ideas of the Mohists, and when that did not work, they would rather resign than do it.

And the ink who is an official must donate money to the group, so as to "share the wealth".

The giant should lead by example and implement the "law of the ink man".

Legend:

At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, at the beginning of the Warring States Period, the world was divided, and the Zhou family was unable to restore the previous era of etiquette, and Mo Zhai, the founder of the Mo family, felt lost.

One snowy night, Mo Zhai passed by a village, and on the boulder at the entrance of the village, two teenagers sat on the boulder at the entrance of the village to play chess, playing chess pieces with the world as the game, and heard them recount the ancient royal road.

Mo Zhai knelt down and begged the two to teach him the royal way, and one of the black-clothed young men asked him: "Now that the king of Zhou is in decline, what should you do if the heroes are divided?" ”

Mo Zhai knelt down and said, "I wish to write books and educate the world." ”

The young man laughed and said nothing, took a bamboo slip from his sleeve and gave it to him, and said to him, "Everything you want is in it." ”

Mo Zhai thanked him and left.

The white-clothed young man behind the black-clothed young man said coldly: "Do you think that by giving him the Ancient Organ Armor Book, you can block God's heavenly punishment, Yanshi?" ”

Yanshi looked back, smiled and said to the young man in white, "Wang Yi, he will." People who dream of universal harmony are fools, but they are the source of dreams. ”

Mo Zhai went back to study hard and comprehended the mystery of the book, that is, what later generations know, equal love between people (concurrent love), opposition to aggressive wars (non-offensive), advocating thrift and opposing extravagance and waste (thrift), attaching importance to inheriting the cultural wealth of predecessors (Ming ghosts), and mastering the laws of nature (Tianzhi).

The character of the Moshi since Mo Zhai is undoubtedly noble, even so noble that other scholars are ashamed of themselves.

But for the emperor, these ink writers who only listen to the orders of the giants and do not listen to the emperor's orders and say that they will pick the children are definitely not as good as those Confucian scholars who advocate loyalty to the monarch and patriotism.

This is one of the reasons why Confucianism became more and more popular in the feudal period, but Mohism gradually disappeared into the long river of history.

Li Cun was not interested in the struggle between Confucianism and Mohism, he was a pragmatist, so he only looked at who was useful and who was not.

Confucianism was useful for his own rule, and Li Cun used Confucianism to govern the country.

For the Mo family, Li Cun's attitude is the same.

Li Cuncai didn't care that the Mohists didn't deal with Confucianism, and that the Mohist ideology was not conducive to his rule.

Li Cun only knew that Mozi had already established a set of scientific theories with geometry, physics, and optics as outstanding achievements in the pre-Qin period.

Moreover, Mozi's research on physics involves mechanics, optics, acoustics and other branches, gives definitions of many physical concepts, makes many important discoveries, and summarizes some important physical theorems.

In addition, the Mohists have played a role in warfare, architecture, and agriculture in the long history of China.

In other words, Li Cun is interested in the scientific research ability of the Mohists.

Therefore, Li Cun will reuse the Mohist ink and let him develop advanced things for the Daqian Dynasty and build a scientific foundation.

Let's put it this way, Li Cun never looks at any house, he doesn't care about black cats and white cats, as long as he can catch mice, he is a good cat.

But—

Li Cunzhong's use of the Mo family has also encountered two big troubles.

The first trouble is that Li Cun wants to use the Mo family's ink makers, but the Mo family's ink artists stick to their own old traditions, and Li Cun can't meet their requirements, so they would rather continue to live in seclusion than work for Li Cun.

But what Li Cun wants is only the ability of the Mohists to invent and create, not their set of ideas.

The key is that the Mo family's set of ideas is completely undermining the rule of Li Cun, the emperor, and Li Cun is not crazy, how can he accept it?

If it were another emperor, he might have abandoned these stubborn ink masters.

But Li Cun didn't.

Li Cun directly called Mo Yan, the contemporary giant of the Mo family, and talked to Mo Yan that if all the Mo artists of their Mo family were willing to help him serve for ten years, he would give them a piece of territory for the Mo family, so that they could build a holy land belonging to their Mo family according to their thoughts.

Moreover, Li Cun also said that as long as all the Mo people of their Mo family were willing to serve them wholeheartedly for ten years, he could allow their Mo family to recruit people who were willing to go with them in the Daqian Dynasty.

The reason why Li Cun agreed to help the Mo family build an ideal country was because Li Cun never thought of letting the Mo family establish a country within a country within the territory of the Daqian Dynasty, but was ready to build this ideal country for the Mo family in a corner of the world or on a small island.

In addition, Li Cun concluded that as far as the Mohists were concerned, even if they were to fully open up and let them find like-minded people, they would not be able to find too many people who were willing to go with them, after all, human nature was selfish and greedy, and they were too noble, too high-minded and low-minded.

Ink writers are morally noble, but that doesn't mean they really have no desires.

On the contrary, the Mohists were eager to spread their ideas.

But because of the intervention of the feudal imperial power, the Mo family had no chance to spread their ideas in a big way, so they stuck on their laurels for too long, too long, too long.

And Li Cun's idea of helping the Mohists build an ideal country made all the Mohists ready to move, because it meant that they, the Mohists, could finally no longer be bound by the imperial power and could create a beautiful world that belonged to them according to their ideas.

There are many extremely intelligent people among the ink scholars, and they know very well that an emperor like Li Cun, who has the ability and courage to help them build an ideal country, may not have a second one in another thousand years.

Therefore, after discussing with a group of Mo scholars, Mo Yu agreed that they must seize this opportunity, and then Mo Yu agreed to the conditions put forward by Li Cun, and the two sides also signed a treaty.

This led to the entry of a group of ink scholars into the Royal Academy founded by Li Zheng in the third year of Hongwu.

In addition to this first trouble, Li Cun also encountered a second trouble, that is, later these Confucian literati (whether they were the original literati of the Daqian Dynasty or the literati of the new Daqian Dynasty), knew that Li Cun was secretly using ink practitioners to help him study strange tricks, and they hugged together to prevent Li Cun from doing this.

In this regard, Li Cun did not stupidly go to fight these literati by himself, but found an opponent for these literati.

Specifically:

Li Cun put into production the bicycles developed by his own command and a group of ink artists.

It has to be said that because the current industrial level is not enough, fine components such as bearings are not mature enough, and natural rubber has just been transplanted from the prince's mainland to Hainan, Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian and other places has not formed too large a planting scale and so on, the current quality of bicycles is not good, and the manufacturing cost is also very high.

But it doesn't matter, Li Cun doesn't care what the manufacturing cost is, he will directly sell it a hundred times.

Don't be too expensive.

You have to study the psychology of the people who buy bikes.

You know, in this period, there were no poor people who could afford a bicycle.

They will spend a lot of money when they visit the Qinglou, buy a novelty that is a status and status symbol, what's wrong with spending a little more money?

Moreover, this bicycle is fun to ride, and it can attract countless envious and jealous eyes everywhere.

Therefore, as soon as the bicycle was launched, it quickly became popular in Bianliang City, Tokyo, and then spread to Nanjing, Yanjing, Yunzhong, Luoyang, and major port cities at a very fast speed, and rich sons from all over the country competed to buy it.

Moreover, some people engaged in maritime trade saw this business opportunity and purchased a large number of bicycles to bring back to their respective countries for sale.

Hundredfold profits, sales have skyrocketed like a snowball, the key is to be the only one, which is difficult to make a lot of money.

Li Cun ordered that 51 percent of the shares of this bicycle factory belonged to the treasury of the Daqian Dynasty, and that the remaining 49 percent of the shares were all subscribed by a group of princes (who were currently managed by their mothers) and those who had fought with Li Cun.

After these exploits with Li Cun made a lot of money, Li Cun went out of his way, and in the future, the Mo family researched any new money-making objects, and they all followed this example.

Then, when the civil officials chase after the Mo family, there will be meritorious people who will stand up and fight with these civil officials.

Moreover, since many civil officials also profited a lot from this matter, Confucianism is no longer monolithic.

In addition, because Li Cun gave real benefits to his meritorious deeds, Li Cun was more supported by his old brothers, and his status was more stable.

There is also an invisible advantage that because of those meritorious deeds with Li Cun to balance those civil officials, those civil officials who always like to shackle the emperor and influence the emperor's thoughts, there is no way to take Li Cun, so he can only work for Li Cun obediently.

However, it is worth mentioning that these ink masters of the Mo family are not so obedient.

These ink artists did not move closer to Li Cun just because Li Cun protected them and was ready to help them build an ideal country.

On the contrary, these ink writers have always been vigilant against Li Cun, and they are always on guard against Li Cun harming them.

As for the tasks given to them by Li Cun, they are, they will do whatever Li Cun tells them, and they will never do even a little more.

It seems that these ink artists are coping, preparing to get through the past ten years, and then they can stay away from Li Cun, who is not a person who is not a person with them at all.

Li Cun is an emperor, and he has all kinds of opportunities, how can he have time to intrigue with these ink artists every day?

Moreover, although these ink artists did not show it, they were actually very proud in their hearts, as if Li Cun would not be able to leave their ink artists.

Crucially, these Moists advocated non-offensive and opposed aggressive wars, so they refused to help Li Cun develop weapons.

The key point is that these ink writers will only help Li Cun for ten years, and they will be gone in ten years.

Therefore, it is impossible for Li Cun to put all the treasures on these ink makers - Li Cun must train his own R&D personnel.

Moreover, Li Cun had to find someone to educate and educate these ink writers, so that they could understand that he was only looking for them to cooperate because he wanted to take a shortcut, not because he couldn't leave them.

Therefore, Li Cun first recruited all the best craftsmen in the country to the Royal Research Institute, and then issued a holy decree to all local officials to promote those talents who had the spirit of research and the talent for invention and creativity.

Li Cun also made a special decree that if a talent with a research spirit and a talent for invention and creation recommended by an official is selected, the official's assessment results will be increased by a large proportion, and the selected talent with a spirit of research and a talent for invention and creation, regardless of men, women, or children, will be given 100 acres of fertile land and a thousand dollars at home.

And Li Cun also "raised the virtuous and did not avoid relatives", and sent Qian Guifei to the Royal Research Institute.

As soon as Concubine Qian arrived at the Royal Research Institute, under the auspices of Li Cun, she competed with a group of ink masters.

The two sides have been tested in mathematics, physics, invention and creation.

As a result, all the ink masters were defeated, and Qian Guifei won completely.

This made a group of ink masters finally realize that there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky, and the knowledge that their Mo family has inherited for thousands of years is no longer the most advanced, and then they no longer dare to be as cold as before.

When Li Cunlong brought thousands of talents with research spirit and inventive talent to enter the Royal Academy, the ink scholars finally realized that they were not irreplaceable.

In addition, Li Cun would occasionally show a small hand to a group of ink artists, and beat them with some of the three laws of kinematics, relativity, or something, so that they would know that the height at which Li Cun stood was not comparable to their school that had been resting on its laurels for an unknown number of years.

In the end, these unruly ink masters were finally trained by Li Cun to have no temper at all, and they were honestly used by Li Cun.

Over the years, the Royal Research Institute has researched many useful things for Li Cun, such as improving all kinds of machinery and equipment needed for the development of agriculture, such as improving the varieties of rice, sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn, and researching new weapons......

And Qian Guifei is Li Cun's most reliable scientist, and many key things are developed by her, especially those weapons that the ink artist is unwilling to help Li Cun develop, most of them are developed by Qian Guifei and others to help Li Cun.

Moreover, Qian Guifei is like a catfish in the Royal Science Institute, with her, whether it is those ink artists or the researchers recruited by Li Cun from all over the country, they are all working hard to develop one research and development task after another given to them by Li Cun.

To be honest, Li Cun has so many women, but there are really not many women who can really help him.

And Qian Guifei is definitely one of them, and she is the best of them.

With this alone, Li Cun should love Concubine Qian.

Moreover, once Qian Guifei researched something she was interested in, she liked to forget to sleep and eat, and sometimes even did not sleep for days and nights.

This also led to Li Cun's reluctance to disturb Concubine Qian's sleep.

Just like this time, Li Cunming knew that it was Concubine Qian who hadn't slept for several days, and he didn't know when he would wake up, but he still waited patiently for Concubine Qian to wake up naturally......
