"The national teacher is back."

In the main hall, Zhu Di looked at the three people who were in the dust, and showed a hint of joy from the bottom of his heart.

To preside over the law change, Jiang Xinghuo and the vulgar Yao Guangxiao still have to do it, and it is still too troublesome for him to face the opposition of the ministers like flies flapping their wings.

Although he was hindered by Jing Qing's blood oath, he had to deal with the huge public opinion turmoil first.

Therefore, the ceremony of worshipping the national teacher and the establishment of the president's law-changing affairs yamen had to be postponed for a while.

But here in Zhu Di, Jiang Xinghuo is already a national teacher, and he has been there since the day he broke the wall in prison.

"I've seen Your Majesty." Jiang Xinghuo saluted.

With Zhu Di's privileged treatment, Jiang Xinghuo does not need to kneel when he sees anyone, even the emperor himself and the empress, he only needs to make a move.

"Hmm." Zhu Di smiled, and then said: "Come on, give the national teacher and Rongguo Gong a seat." ”

After Jiang Xinghuo and Yao Guangxiao sat down on Xiaojindun, Zhu Di told him about some of the things that happened in Nanjing after Zhu Gaoxu left Beijing.

Mainly due to the influence of Jingqing's blood oath, the officials and scholars who opposed the change of the law wrote letters one after another, and the cabinet was about to be piled up.

Zhu Di's attitude is "I can't read it back".

Sit back and wait for Jiang Xinghuo and Yao Guangxiao to come back and then discuss the disposal.

After that, Zhu Di asked: "Regarding the matter of opposing the change of law between the government and the opposition, does the national teacher have a good plan to teach me?" ”

"This kind of thing is not unexpected, in fact, it is an inevitable thing, and there are naturally countermeasures."

Jiang Xinghuo pondered for a moment before slowly saying what he was thinking.

"Public opinion warfare, if you want to break the enemy, there are only three aspects."

"Oh?"

Zhu Di didn't expect that as soon as Jiang Xinghuo's countermeasures spoke, they sounded very similar to that.

This made him feel a little more sure of Jiang Xinghuo's ability in his heart.

"First, weary enemies."

Jiang Xinghuo's hand was on his knee, tapping rhythmically, and he said slowly.

"The so-called tired enemy means not to dwell on the enemy's battlefield of public opinion, but to exert force from other battlefields of public opinion that cannot determine the victory or defeat of public opinion, but can make him exhausted, attract the enemy's attention and make him tired."

"Specifically, it is usually the attack that must be saved, that is, to find the content that the enemy must refute, but it is difficult to refute clearly."

Yao Guangxiao raised his eyebrows, this was the first time he had heard of this statement.

It's a different way.

It is worthy of Jiang Sheng!

"Still." Jiang Xinghuo's words changed, "Exhausting the enemy is the method adopted when the enemy is evenly matched, and now that Your Majesty is on top, there is actually an advanced version of the strategy of exhausting the enemy." ”

Hearing this, Zhu Di's brain, which had been annoyed by civil officials and doctors these days, finally became clear.

Although he knew that the two sides were not at the same level of status, what Zhu Di was thinking about before was to use the supreme imperial power to sew their mouths shut. But this is obviously impossible, and the imperial power cannot do it.

And now it sounds like Jiang Xinghuo has another way.

"Please also ask the national teacher to come quickly!" Zhu Di said urgently.

Jiang Xinghuo said: "Let the vast majority of the opposition doctors who are opposed to the letter, as well as some civil officials, do one thing to exhaust the enemy." ”

"What's the matter?"

"Fix the book."

Zhu Di frowned and said: "I have appointed Xie Jin as the president to preside over the revision of the "Records of Emperor Taizu Gao". ”

Here is to say that the "president/vice president" of a certain affairs are all ad hoc positions in the Ming Dynasty to deal with specific affairs, that is, similar to Jiang Xinghuo's "project team leader/deputy team leader" in his previous life.

"President" is not a foreign word, it was first seen in the "Song Shi Lü Meng's True Biography", which means to summarize and adjudicate its affairs, and the upcoming establishment of the "President Reform Affairs Yamen", although "President Jiang (official)" sounds a little confused, but it is indeed a customary position in the Ming Dynasty to deal with special affairs normally.

If you take the officialdom practice since the Song Dynasty as an analogy, it is equivalent to that Jiang Xinghuo's national teacher is an official position, and the president of the law change is a dispatch, which is the same as Xie Jin's bachelor's official position, and the cabinet and the president of the record are all sent.

Back to the topic, Jiang Xinghuo nodded: "It's not "The Record of Emperor Taizu Gao". ”

"What do you mean?" Zhu Di suddenly remembered something.

"Your Majesty has always wanted to repair a huge work."

Zhu Di, rebelled and seized the throne as a vassal king, his martial arts were brilliant, and his cultural governance was insufficient, so he naturally had the intention to follow the previous emperors and build a masterpiece to highlight the cultural governance.

This idea has been around for a long time.

It's just that if you want to cultivate a huge work of this scale, it is really difficult to spend manpower and material resources to cultivate a huge work of this scale, such as "the book of a hundred schools of thought since the deed, as for astronomy, geography, yin and yang, medical divination, monks' Taoism, and the words of skills, and compile them into one book".

Therefore, Zhu Di plans to wait for the treasury to be abundant before considering it, and for now, he can only prepare some basic preparations in advance.

However, Zhu Di's eyes gradually lit up as he listened to Jiang Xinghuo's words.

The national teacher really deserves to be a national teacher, just a few words, but he goes straight to the core.

If you can throw most of the opposition doctors and some civil officials who oppose the change of the law to repair the masterpiece, then your ears will be countless times quieter in an instant!

Because, for this kind of masterpiece, for the doctors in the field, participating in it and leaving a name in the compilation team are all things that can go down in history!

This kind of temptation is undoubtedly greater than the sky for literati, especially for doctors in the opposition who have no official position!

If you oppose the change of the law, you will be happy.

If you want to really win the fame before and after your death, you have to repair a masterpiece.

After all, the three immortals "establish morality, meritorious service, and speech", and the cultivation of masterpieces basically accounts for all.

Moreover, there is also a layer of extension here, which can be naturally associated with the scholars, that is, when Wang Anshi changed the law, Sima Guang, who opposed the change of the law, left the imperial court for more than ten years, and buried himself in Luoyang to revise history, and presided over the compilation of the chronicle general history "Zizhi Tongjian" covering more than 1,300 years of the 16 dynasties.

However, Emperor Yongle is not Song Shenzong, Jiang Xinghuo is not Wang Anshi, these scholars are not Sima Guang, and when the masterpiece is repaired for more than ten years, when the cultivation is completed, it is estimated that the Ming Dynasty will start to run the train, and then it will be too late to mention any opposition to the change.

And in this way, not only did the opponents send them to work willingly, but also made them voluntarily tossed and exhausted, which can be described as a clever plan.

Zhu Di was very excited, he felt that he had found the right person this time, and the national teacher was simply a natural material suitable for engaging in public opinion warfare.

Zhu Di couldn't help but ask: "I plan to name it "Yongle Canon", what does the national teacher think of this name?" ”

"Of course it's a good name, but"

Zhu Di heard the words and asked: "Then according to the national teacher, what is the best name?" ”

The name "Yongle Canon" is very fond of Zhu Di.

"Since you want to cultivate an immortal masterpiece, you naturally want to take a resounding name, and it must be enough to shock the world." Jiang Xinghuo groaned.

"Oh?"

Zhu Di was a little moved when he heard this: "Then which name does the national teacher think should be more appropriate?" ”

"Of course, Your Majesty can also call it "Yongle Dadian", but you might as well give it another name."

"—Another name can be called "Daming Encyclopedia"." Jiang Xinghuo said lightly.

"It's not just the hundred schools of thought, astronomy, geography, yin and yang, medicine, monks, and skills. It is also necessary to add mathematics, physics, chemistry, and life sciences of the natural sciences one after another, plus sub-classifications, so that it is an encyclopedia. ”

"Moreover, such knowledge should not be cherished by the broom, and after it is repaired, it should be shelved and only for the emperor's reference, but it should be repaired part by part, and printed after repairing, and given to the world's readers as a reference book, so as to live up to Your Majesty's time-consuming and labor-intensive, and only then can it really promote Your Majesty's cultural governance, and then be the effect of all the people."

In other words, the definition of an encyclopedia is a reference book that records all the categories of knowledge accumulated by human beings in the past, and its function is for people to check the necessary knowledge and factual information, and its completeness lies in the fact that it contains the elements of various reference books.

The world's largest encyclopedia is also the "Yongle Canon" in the history of Jiang Xinghuo's previous life, with more than 11,000 volumes, bringing together seven or eight thousand ancient and modern books, and is an encyclopedic collection of documents in China.

It's a pity that because the emperor of the Ming Dynasty did not open this knowledge to outsiders, there is even a saying that after Jiajing's death, he was buried with the original "Yongle Canon", leaving only part of the manuscript. And these manuscripts, when the Jurchens revised the "Siku Quanshu", excerpted some of them, and destroyed most of them, and the remaining small part, because of the looting of foreign powers, self-theft by prison guards, and burning by boxers, etc., in the end only more than 100 copies remained, which can be said to be not one in a hundred.

This kind of great regret of human civilization, Jiang Xinghuo doesn't want it to happen again.

In addition, Jiang Xinghuo also has the idea of constantly promoting science with the help of this huge work that is destined to attract the attention of the world.

After all, if the improved version of the "Yongle Canon", that is, the "Daming Encyclopedia", is constantly printed and sent to the whole country in the process of revision, then in the process of adding mathematics, physics, chemistry, life science and other disciplines, it is actually a process of scientific promotion.

This is equivalent to a continuously published journal.

Jiang Xinghuo's move was actually the Enlightenment, and the French royal family asked Rousseau, Voltaire and others to continue to publish "Encyclopedias", so that the "Encyclopedic School" trend of thought was formed.

It's best if different points of view collide with each other and bring heat.

Open the wisdom of the people, this kind of serial-like speculation, is the most effective.

After all, it is human nature to eat melons.

And science is not afraid of argumentation, because science can prove it.

When Zhu Di heard this, he was quite moved.

This is equivalent to a countermeasure of "killing two birds with one stone", which can not only satisfy Zhu Dixiu's psychology of a masterpiece to highlight the rule of culture, but also find something to do for the doctors in the opposition who oppose the change of law.

But Zhu Di soon discovered a problem.

"National teacher, where does the money come from?"

Yes, repairing huge works, finding thousands of literati, and working on projects for ten years, the remuneration for eating and drinking is still secondary, the problem is collecting, buying, and looking for unique books from the people, and the money needed will go to the sea.

"Your Majesty mentioned just now that Annan has changed."

Jiang Xinghuo glanced at the map on the dragon case and said.

"Your Majesty, if the law change is opened, the textile output of Nanzhili will definitely increase dramatically, and the three million people of Annan will be bathed, don't you need to wear new clothes?"

"What's more, if you want to promote large-scale handicraft workshops, introduce cheap rice from Annam and Champa, and free farmers from the farmland, this is a necessary precondition."

Zhu Di's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light.

The conquest of Annan seems to be imperative.
