The establishment of the Great Cadre has solved many problems, but many problems have also arisen. From the establishment of the Xue Palace in Huai State to the end of the military merit awarding of the Qin State, the bloodline nobles have begun to be gradually eliminated in hundreds of years. More people at the bottom began to appear in the political arena.

After Wang Luo prepared to build the Great Wall, he soon found that Daqian's money and food were no longer able to support it. So Wang Luo began to look elsewhere.

At the same time, some merchants dealing in salt, iron, and wine came into his eyes. The policies on salt, iron, and liquor in the six countries were different, and after the reunification of the Great Cadres, there was no time to carry out rectification. Now Wang Luo finally has time to deal with this.

Wang Luo ordered the Legalists to formulate a monopoly system for salt and iron wine, and then implement it all over the world. All the rights to operate salt, iron, and wine will be returned to the state. In order to increase the tax revenue of the state.

But just when Wang Luo was about to implement it, there were many opposing voices in the court.

They felt that the whole world was unified, and the big cadres should follow the royal road, promote Confucianism, and not compete with the people for profit. After these years of development, a large number of Confucian scholars have appeared in the country, and the number of these people has surpassed that of Legalists.

When Confucius entered the Huaiguo Xue Palace, Huaiwen Xianggong once said that after the unification of the world, Confucianism should flourish. As a result, in the past few years, after the great cadres dominated the world, many Confucian scholars began to build momentum, wanting Wang Luo to abolish Legalism and implement Confucian governance.

When Wang Luo was promoting a unified script, these Confucian scholars also wrote to discuss which script to implement. It is believed that the implementation of more beautiful glyphs rather than more simple glyphs of the Huaiguo script.

These people believed that only beautiful writing was more suitable for scholars and doctors. Even many people secretly say that the structure of the Huaiguo script is simple and vulgar, which does not fit their identity.

Wang Luo ignored these people and directly ordered the implementation of the Huaiguo script. When it came time to implement the same language, they were even more opposed.

Because the state and Zhou countries are divided into states and Zhou, the vassal states originally used the Zhou dialect, although there have been some changes in the pronunciation over the past hundreds of years, but once the same origin, Wang Luo's promotion of the same language is naturally to implement the Huai State dialect.

Huaiguo Yayan originated from Yin Shang, because it is located in the Central Plains, and it is somewhat different from the Zhou Yayan from Qishan. Because the vast majority of nobles and scholars of various schools spoke the Zhou dialect, these Confucian scholars demanded the implementation of the Zhou dialect.

This kind of request was naturally scoffed at by Wang Luo. I'm an emperor, and I still have to learn other people's dialects? Isn't it for nothing that I, the emperor, have been the emperor?

Wang Luo was too lazy to deal with these people, but these Confucian scholars picked on the various policies implemented by the great cadres. It is believed that the implementation of Chi Dao is too expensive, and the conquest of Lingnan is also a great achievement.

Confucianism even created momentum in the palace of learning, saying that they had the idea of great unification and were better at governing the country.

Jinling Palace, Qianyuan Palace.

Zhou Ke, one of the Confucian leaders of this generation, was writing to Wang Luo.

"Your Majesty, you are the supreme of the world, the father of all peoples, shouldn't you act with the world first?

Qi Zi magnificent, Zhou Room Yayan all over the world, these have been recognized by many scholars and talents, have been widely circulated, do not need to change can be used, isn't it easier to promote? ”

Wang Luo knows very well that these people's little abacus, what is magnificent, what is easy to promote, these are all excuses. These words are even more double-standard.

In front of the book with the same text, it is said that the words are magnificent, but the words are difficult to write, difficult to promote, the Huai characters are simple, easy to promote, and the back to the same language is said to be easy to promote, so double standard, really when Wang Luo is a fool.

What are these people trying to do? They are not for the convenience of the people of the world, but for their own convenience, or rather, to raise the bar for the dissemination of knowledge.

Most of these people are from aristocratic families, have money, connections, book collections, and time to read, but the low-level commoners do not. Since Huaiguo founded the Xue Palace and the Legalists created military merits and awarded knights, the people at the bottom began to come forward.

Although the number of people is not large, the base of the people at the bottom is too large, and there are so many official positions. Naturally, these people are unwilling.

In addition to these, they also mean that now that the world is unified, this set of Legalist governance is not good, and we still have to use our Confucianism.

Wang Luo's face was expressionless, and the ministers above the hall were silent, and when Zhou Ke stopped, Wang Luo spoke: "In the past, Bang Zhou divided the world, implemented Xia Jun and razed the people, so that the barbarians practiced Zhou rites and changed them into Xia. I dominate the world, but I use Qi characters to speak Zhou language, is this correct? ”

"In the past, Yin Shang collapsed, and Duke Zhou could let the countries continue to implement Yin Li?"

As Wang Luo's voice fell, the entire hall became silent, it was obviously summer noon, but the chill in this hall was bitterly cold.

Zhou Ke suddenly realized that they seemed to be using the wrong method, and they wanted to gain recognition and let Confucianism replace Legalism and govern the country. We can't challenge the legitimacy of the big cadres. But what they are doing now seems to be challenging the legitimacy of the great cadres.

This time, all kinds of momentum, all kinds of arguments, and all kinds of books were useless.

Zhou Ke didn't dare to say anything more, he only thought at this time that Wang Luo's ruthlessness at the beginning was that dozens of nobles and nobles were wiped out, and later the nobles of the Six Kingdoms were directly relocated thousands of miles. It's all a lesson in blood.

Wang Luo's face was cold, and his heart was full of anger, and now he understood what Li Si meant when he said that Confucianism messed with the law.

"The world is so big, within the world, thousands of subjects, if the language is not unified, the officials speak the same language, how can the decree be implemented? There is a lot of discussion every day, how to govern the country? ”

"The edict established official learning, and ordered Sun Qian, Li Si, Han Fei, and Wang Yun to focus on Huaifa, screen the words of a hundred schools, and gather them into official learning."

"Based on official learning, students all over the world are ordered to study, and only those who have achieved success in learning can be recommended as officials. If you don't study officials and scholars, you can't be officials. ”

"It is forbidden for any other school to give lectures, all books that are not in the official school will be handed in, and the offenders will be punished and the whole family will be exiled to Lingnan!"

With Wang Luo's edict, Zhou Ke was stupid, this was to eliminate all opponents. If only official schools can be officials, will there be people from other schools of thought who will learn in the future?

What did the common people, the nobles, and even the scholars in the palace do to learn these things? Ninety percent of people want to be officials, and only after becoming officials can they live a better life, and only after they have power can their families grow, so that the children of the family can have time, money and food to study and continue to be officials, but the emperor hit the nail on the head this time.

As long as it continues, it will only take a hundred years, and schools other than official schools will decline or even die.
