Chapter 83 Farming Again?
Seeing Kong Rong's appearance of not giving up if he didn't achieve his goal, Liu Xuan was also quite speechless. "Friendly Fights
In fact, the edict to let Zhen Mi come to Chang'an to study in Taixue has already been issued, according to the current point of view, it may have crossed the Yellow River and entered the Hebei boundary, he thought that this was the case, Kong Rong would not say anything more even if he was dissatisfied, even if he wanted to find something, he had to wait for Zhen Mi to come, right?
Unexpectedly, this Kong Rong also came here deliberately, and said directly to himself: "Please Your Majesty take back the edict!"
Compared with Kong Rong, the rest of the people in the court are much more knowledgeable, because they think that a woman is just a woman, and there is nothing to fight for, even if Zhen Mi really enters Taixue, but when he really wants to fill the vacancy, it is not decided by the court princes? At that time, I am afraid that none of these people in the court will be willing to use a woman to fill the vacancy, right?
In addition, looking at His Majesty's meaning, it seems that he admires the little daughter of the Zhen family, and everyone has such a consensus: this girl will enter the palace as a concubine sooner or later, and she will definitely not go to the court to be an official, so they can't compete with the emperor for this kind of thing.
The real dissatisfaction was actually some Confucian scholars - the middle of the Han Dynasty began to respect Confucian scholarship, but before that time it had been in an era of contention, and not all scholars today were Confucian scholars, such as Guo Jia, who was more important to the Son of Heaven, and he was not a scribe who studied Confucianism.
Another example is Zhuge Liang, who was still a little kid at this time, according to the policies he later pursued, Liu Xuan speculated that Zhuge Liang should be a capable person with many knowledge of Mojia, Legalism and Taoism.
At the same time, there is another reason why these people don't care much, although the status of women in the Han Dynasty has decreased a lot compared with the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, and even compared with the early Han Dynasty, women are still relatively free.
It is not uncommon for women to serve in the palace, for women to divorce if they are not satisfied with their marriages, or even to elope, and for widows to remarry is also socially acceptable - the fundamental reason is that widows often remarry in the royal family.
Even in the early days of the Han Dynasty, Empress Lu held great power and successively sealed several female marquises, which shows that the status of women in the Han Dynasty was not low.
However, this situation gradually changed from the middle of the Han Dynasty, because of a number of reasons and the personal desires of some prominent people, the status of women was suppressed, among which Confucian scribes occupied a major position in this matter, and several emperors before Liu Xuan also encouraged the concept of chastity because of some personal desires, in addition to material rewards, and satisfied the vanity of many families with 'sacrificing oneself and honoring the whole family'.
At the same time, the publication of books such as the biography of women and the precepts of women also provided basic theoretical guidelines for this behavior, and at the same time, it began to emphasize that women should be subordinate to men in society, and in the social division of labor, they were more inclined to the inner house and auxiliary husbands.
But after all, the time was not very long, and many people did not care about these things, only some people who had always believed in the Confucian way expressed their opposition - but Liu Xuan felt that their opposition was not that they really thought that this was a ridiculous thing, but that this kind of thing foreshadowed one thing, that is, the status of Confucianism in the Han family began to decline.
Because those theories were put forward by Confucian scribes, they were able to work in the Han Dynasty in the first few decades, because there was a general environment in which the emperor respected Confucianism and suppressed the doctrines of several other schools at that time.
And now Liu Xuan's actions are obviously overthrowing everything before, doing so is simply slapping the Confucian scribes in the face, and from Liu Xuan's actions, it also shows that today's son is not interested in Confucianism, and even looking at what the Son of Heaven did, Kong Rong felt that today's style was closer to Legalism?...,
Only Liu Xuan himself knows that he is not a faction at all, and he doesn't even look at him as an immortal, but it has nothing to do with the Taoists of this era.
But he knew that when the emperor of the Han Dynasty suppressed several other family members, among whom the Confucian people spread rumors and slandered a lot, he was not like those emperors who really thought that the Taoist "fight" was to fight for the throne with himself, those were just theories deliberately distorted by some ambitious people, just like the Confucianism that became more and more deviated later.
In addition, Liu Xuan understands that it is not a good thing for his subordinates to be dominant, and the contention of a hundred schools of thought will be more energetic, and at the same time, it can also ensure that these scribes will always remain competitive, constantly study their own doctrines, and then become real sages, instead of tampering with and misinterpreting in order to cater to the Son of Heaven, and finally drum up a bunch of messy dross.
Looking at Kong Rong in front of him, Liu Xuan didn't bother to pay attention to it after thinking about why he cared so much about it.
"When did the Han Dynasty stipulate that women could not enter Taixue?"
Kong Rong was also depressed after hearing this, because the Han Dynasty did not have regulations in this regard, let alone entering Taixue, even if it was an official, it was also allowed-because the female officials in the inner palace were clear officials, but there was no position for female officials in the court.
Now he is afraid that Liu Xuan will say this, and he is afraid that Liu Xuan will really make women officials in the future, in that case, everything that the Confucian sages have done with great difficulty will be overthrown.
Maybe it's still a no-brainer for the Son of Heaven to use a woman as an official now, but now that there are such signs, it must be destroyed as soon as possible, otherwise when it really comes to that time, won't he be even more helpless to deal with it?
He is here today to nip this possibility in the bud, but now it seems that he has little chance of success.
With a wave of his hand, Liu Xuan directly motioned for Kong Rong to leave, he was too lazy to say anything to Kong Rong now, even if this person still wanted to talk at length in front of him, wanting him to change his mind and take back the edict.
But can Liu Xuan be fooled casually? In addition, he is too lazy to listen to Kong Rong's nonsense, and directly driving him away can also avoid some annoying noise.
Kong Rong left sullenly, while Liu Xuan continued his own business.
For example, Sima Yi did a good job in the Refining Division, Liu Xuan directly promoted him to Langzhong, which is regarded as the leader of the Refining Division, although Shi Daoren did not officially hang a position, but he will also listen to Sima Yi's dispatch and arrangement in the future.
At the same time, Liu Xuan also checked the progress of Sima Yi's cultivation, and found that this young man was also quite qualified in cultivation, and now that his cultivation had gradually caught up, at this speed, I am afraid that he would soon be able to reach the standard in his heart.
"At that time, I will send Sima Yi to the army for training, as for this refining division...... If Shi Daoren does a good job, he won't mind straightening him out in the future!"
Just thinking about it, it happened that Shi Daoren came to ask for a meeting, and Liu Xuan took the opportunity to let him in.
As soon as I came, I found out that it was a routine report to the Refining Division, because Liu Xuan had been paying attention to the Refining Division for a while, and at the same time gave a new order to the Refining Division, so every once in a while, Shi Dao and Sima Yi would take turns to report it.
"The kind of armor that Your Majesty mentioned...... Although the materials are sufficient, it is very difficult to make them, and according to the current situation of the Refining Division, it is already fast to be able to make a pair every month!"
The battle armor that Shi Dao said was naturally the battle armor that Liu Xuan had created for Lu Bu and Liu Bei before, but this kind of battle armor was quite fast for him to make, but it was a little difficult for these people to make it.
Although the monks of the Alchemy Division have improved their cultivation to a certain extent after Liu Xuan's cultivation in the past few years, and at the same time, their knowledge has also broadened a lot, and their refining or alchemy methods have improved a lot-even Shi Daoren proposed to set up another alchemy division, but Liu Xuan felt that there was no need to set up such a department now, so he said that he would talk about it later, and this alchemy division would not be formed. ...,
But the armor that Liu Xuan asked for was complicated to make, and it used a lot of difficult means and techniques, and it would take some time to really master them.
"Really?".
Liu Xuan pondered for a while, and finally said: "Don't worry, go back and do it slowly, you must master the manufacturing skills of this kind of battle armor within a year, because in the future, this kind of war armor will become a must-have for the generals and schools of the imperial court!"
This kind of armor can be used for a long time, and if you create a set, you can use a set, and if the user can properly temper it, the armor even has a certain ability to evolve, which means that you don't have to worry about the armor after you get it.
At present, the construction is slow, Liu Xuanda can give priority to rewarding some meritorious officials, so that the generals will want to make meritorious contributions more, and when there are more meritorious generals in the future, the speed of manufacturing will also increase, and it will slowly become popular.
As for the kind of soldier armor used by the Yulin Cavalry...... It still has to be made, and even the tiger and leopard have to change into some special armor after riding.
But the armor of the soldiers and the generals will never be of the same rank, and this difference can also give the people at the bottom the motivation to climb up.
In the end, the answers they got were good, those monks didn't want to leave in an environment with higher advanced exercises and better pills, and they even felt that serving the emperor here was much more promising than wandering around outside.
Although Shi Daoren didn't say anything, Liu Xuan also noticed it, Shi Daoren also thought so, after seeing this, Liu Xuan handed over a jade tablet, and let Shi Daoren go down without saying anything.
However, as soon as Shi Daoren took the jade piece, his expression immediately changed greatly, and then he respectfully gave Liu Xuan a big salute, and then slowly retreated.
"This Shi Daoist is really used by me now, and I think I have really done a lot of things this year!"
While counting the events of the year, Liu Xuan began to think about what he should do next year, thinking about it, it seems that there is only such a thing as cultivating a relationship with his own two women, because the military and political affairs have basically set the general direction and do not need to pay too much attention.
"Do you want to farm again?"
