Chapter 259: Listen to your words
Fang Xiaoru's face flushed with excitement, waiting for Li Wei's answer, he felt that there was a great truth in this sentence.
When the others heard this sentence at this time, they thought about it for a while and came back to their senses, and muttered this sentence in a low voice, and they were also very surprised in their hearts, and they all fell on Li Wei, waiting for him to explain why.
However, Li Wei was silent, not because he didn't want to say it, but because he didn't know how to explain it.
This sentence is still what he saw from the office of the dog boss in the later generations, although he can probably understand the general meaning of this sentence, but the profound truth is not clear, after all, he is a science student!
And don't talk about him, even the dog boss himself, who faces this sentence every day, I'm afraid he can't understand the meaning of this, after all, he is just a vassal and elegant.
Seeing that he was speechless, Fang Xiaoru was suddenly a little impatient, and urged loudly: "Say it quickly!" ”
"Uh, this...... What does it mean......"
Li Wei used his brains to delay time.
Forget it, Lao Tzu is a science student, so let's explain it to him according to the way of a science student.
"The so-called knowledge of things is to obtain the knowledge contained in it through careful speculation and observation of things, and through research, and the unity of knowledge and action is to put it into action after obtaining knowledge, and use practice to test the correctness of this knowledge, which is the only standard for testing true knowledge!"
"Nowadays, the knowledge of the scholars is obtained from the classics written by the predecessors, and they talk about it without practice, which leads to the fact that many readers have a thousand words in their mouths, but they have no plan in their chests, and they have knowledge but no action......"
Fang Xiaoru listened to Li Wei's eloquent talk, and his heart was shocked, he finally understood why Zhu Yuanzhang looked down on him so much when he first met the saint, he was outstanding in learning, and the article was even more gorgeous, but these are empty talks that have not been practiced, and it is naturally inappropriate to use them directly to deal with affairs.
"It's shallow on paper, and I never know that I have to do it."
Xue Xiang stroked his beard and concluded leisurely, and Ru Taisu couldn't help but nodded.
The eyes of the other people looking at Li Wei couldn't help but change.
In the eyes of the ministers, Li Wei was a reckless country grass who came out of nowhere, had no talent, did not know the etiquette, and could not be compared with them as scholars, and despised him very much.
Even now, seeing Li Wei's growing power, these people who came to speculate on him actually don't look down on him in their hearts.
But as soon as Li Wei's discussion came out, they couldn't help but be impressed by them, and secretly said that although this Li Suma didn't read much, many of his insights were enlightening and deafening.
Li Wei felt the change in everyone's eyes, and inevitably felt a little proud in his heart, thought about it and continued: "Of course, there is another meaning to the unity of knowledge and action, that is, to be a man to be the same, not to shout benevolence, righteousness and morality, but what you do in secret is dirty and dirty!" ”
Li Wei said, his eyes swept over the people present, since these people want to throw themselves at him, then some things must be said in advance, if there are such corrupt and perverted people among these people, he will not take shelter.
Hearing Li Wei's words, upright officials such as Wu Bozong and Han Yike were naturally calm, but among the crowd, there were also many whose faces changed slightly.
"Lord Li's words are deafening, and the lower officials are like being empowered, it is really better to listen to your words than to read a book for ten years!"
Gao Xin sighed behind Chen Jing, although Li Wei has been taking the school to test Chen Jing and it is not his turn yet, he also wants to show it quickly.
Li Wei's performance today surprised him very much, before he was just asking for a chance to be promoted, but now he can't help but feel a little convinced.
Not only him, but Chen Jing and those Qingliu people in the Hanlin Academy also felt a little like this, and they no longer had the same superficial contempt for Li Wei as before.
After finishing this high-minded talk, Li Wei fell on Chen Jing's body again, and said softly: "In this way, go back and write a book of assessment methods and submit them to Your Majesty, and the rest will depend on your own creation." ”
"Thank you, Lord Li, if the lower officials have any gains, they will not forget the grace of Lord Li today!"
Chen Jing was overjoyed when he heard this, Li Wei gave him his own good policy, and let him go to ask for credit.
Li Wei bowed slightly, in fact, he was not as awesome as Chen Jing thought, he just talked about it at the wine table, if he really wanted him to list a specific assessment measure, he really couldn't come, after all, the national conditions of the Ming Dynasty were different from those of later generations, and he couldn't copy the policies of later generations.
Seeing that Chen Jing had benefited, Gao Xin stepped forward a little anxiously and asked, "Lord Li, what about me?" ”
Li Wei was stunned, and couldn't help but feel a little weak in his heart, Chen Jing made such a lot of things out of the school just now, which made him almost ugly, if he came to this Gao Xin again, he might not be able to hold it.
"Well, didn't you talk about the imperial examination just now, you should study this matter carefully, and tell Your Majesty about the disadvantages of the recommendation and the necessity of opening a scholar."
Li Wei directly handed over to him what had already been discussed, and it happened that the imperial examination was under the control of the Ministry of Rites.
Gao Xin lowered his head and thought about it, thinking that this was not bad, so he thanked him: "Master Xie Li mentioned it." ”
Chen Jing and Gao Xin bowed their hands, turned around and returned to their desks with satisfaction, and Li Wei breathed a long sigh of relief.
Pretending to be forced is risky, so you have to be cautious in the future!
Xue Xiang glanced at him, seemed to see his embarrassment, and teased: "I didn't think that Master Li was so young and had such a talent, since this official department and the Ministry of Rites have been taught, then what do you think about the Ministry of Industry, you might as well say it and let the old man also be empowered." ”
Li Wei, who had just relaxed, couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard his words.
However, he really has a lot of ideas about the Ministry of Industry, anyway, Xue Xiang is not an outsider, and it doesn't matter if he is wrong, so he said in a low voice: "I really have some immature ideas, the boss might as well listen to them, and just give me a check." ”
Xue Xiang smiled with satisfaction, quite satisfied with his modest attitude: "Let's hear it." ”
Li Wei adjusted his seat, got closer to Xue Xiang, and said softly: "I plan to formulate standard weights and measures, such as length, weight, volume, etc., now we use what steps, buckets, stones and other units of measurement error are too large, which is extremely unfavorable to the development of science and technology, I want the Ministry of Industry to formulate accurate standards of weighing, rulers, etc., will be sent to the state capitals, and publicized to the public, in the future, measurements must be based on this, if the people trade if there is a dispute over the pound and two, it can also be judged by this!" ”
Xue Xiang's eyes not only lit up when he heard this, but Ru Taisu next to him was also interested, and came up and said:
"This is good, so that the household tax can be more accurate, and it can also be ...... It can also make the officials below a little more restrained. ”
Speaking of the local officials, Ru Taisu couldn't help but pause and sighed in her heart.
The problem of corruption has always been a problem that has not been solved by all dynasties, and even with Li Wei's standard weighing equipment, I am afraid it will be difficult to eradicate it.
Xue Xiang also nodded lightly and agreed.
Li Wei said after speaking: "In addition, there is the issue of patents, I want to ask Your Majesty to add the law of protecting patents in the Ming Law, in fact, many craftsmen in the Ming Dynasty have their own skills, but they are hidden and do not dare to express themselves with people, let alone take out to communicate with outsiders, my idea is to make it clear in the law, let them have patent rights for their own original crafts and methods, if others want to learn and use, they need to pay them a reasonable remuneration, with the protection of the law, they can rest assured that these unique skills are taken out, This can promote the progress and development of artisan skills......"
Li Wei said a lot, what patents, scientific and technological innovation, Xue Xiang nodded again and again, he didn't expect to ask casually, this kid really has so many ideas, but so many ideas, it can't be realized for a while, so you have to take your time.
The two chatted for a long time before Li Wei stopped talking, sat up straight and took a sip of wine.
After the two finished speaking, Wang Jie took the opportunity to ask: "Master Li, those Hanlin students, do you have any ideas for arranging?" ”
Most of these Hanlin students came through his relationship, and he had to open this mouth.
Li Wei paused and said casually: "Isn't the Hanlin Academy a book cultivator?" Let them repair a Hongwu ceremony. ”
Wang Jie looked puzzled: "Hongwu Grand Ceremony? ”
"Well, it is to include the classics of the world into one, not only Confucian classics, but also astronomy and geography, miscellaneous skills, and so on."
Li Wei said casually, although he is a historical idiot, he has heard the name of the Yongle Canon, although he doesn't know what it is, but he has a general understanding.
When Wang Jie heard Li Wei's words, he couldn't help but be shocked, although Li Wei was only a few words, but what he described was a grand work!
If you can really cultivate such a masterpiece and circulate it in the world, it is really a great merit, and the participants will inevitably go down in history!
Thinking about this, even he couldn't help but feel a little moved, and hesitated between the existing four-rank official body and the name left in history.
Li Wei didn't know what he was thinking, this was just his casual perfunctory, now that the officials in charge of the department are ready, he has no vacancies for these Hanlin Qinglius, and he used to be in a hurry to employ people, so he gave it, and now he is so privately awarded, Zhu Yuanzhang will definitely not be able to spare him.
After Wang Jie was perfunctory, Li Wei didn't talk about political affairs anymore, but chatted with everyone about wine.
He didn't like to socialize, and he didn't drink much in later life, so the amount of alcohol was naturally poor, but he was already drunk in a few moments.
Xue Xiang and Wu Bozong are also old acquaintances with him, and they are more relaxed in conversation, chatting casually about family life.
"Lord Li has won the trust of His Majesty, and His Majesty not only gave him a high position, but also recruited His Majesty as a concubine, which is really enviable." Wang Jie said sincerely.
Since Li Wei became a concubine, not only was he reinstated, but he also turned around gorgeously within a year, and with his current power, this is a great thing in anyone's opinion.
However, Li Wei himself does not think so. (End of chapter)
