Chapter 383: One Stone Stirs Up a Thousand Waves

How easy is it to come up with a compromise?

A wine feast dissipated in a dreary.

What does it mean to stir up a thousand waves with one stone?

As the ministers dispersed, the incident gradually fermented and spread, and in an instant, it had spread all over the world, and the party members of the gate lords everywhere had heard about it.

The children of the poor family were overjoyed and waited for it, but the families of the gate valves jumped like thunder, secretly scolding Yang Guang for not knowing how to lift.

You snatched my bowl, you must not smash my pot!

Walking out of the palace, the drunken Xiao family brothers came over with their shoulders hooked, and Zhang Bairen frowned: "Pass the order and closely monitor the ministers of the court." ”

"What's wrong?" the Xiao family brothers were stunned.

"It's changed!'s changed!" Zhang Bairen sighed lightly.

Taiyuan

The father and son of the Li family only arrived in Xingyang on the front foot, and received the news from the DPRK after the back foot.

Looking at the letter in his hand, Li Yuan frowned.

Li family father and son, you look at me, I look at you, Li Yuan said: "Opening the imperial examination is indeed a choice that is beneficial to the world, but unfortunately the time is not right." ”

"What do you mean?" said Li Jiancheng respectfully.

"I will say to my ancestors, the merits of the imperial examination are beneficial in the present generation, Your Majesty is willing to set a precedent in the past, and we can't hold back, if the imperial examination is successful, we can also sit back and enjoy its success" Li Yuan slowly put away the letter: "My Li family should not make a public announcement about this matter, neither support nor oppose it, but see how Your Majesty breaks the situation." ”

The Wang family

Looking at the letter in his hand, the head of the Wang family frowned, and after a while, he said: "Open the imperial examination, when Zi Fei's head was kicked by a donkey today? Confucianism actually came in, what does the great Confucian king want to do?"

"Isn't Wang Tong in Changbai Mountain? When did you enter Beijing?" the head of the Wang family frowned.

"I have already entered Beijing a few years ago, this matter is quite secret, and the villain only learned the news recently" The disciple of the Wang family smiled bitterly.

"This matter still has to be discussed with the rest of the family, where will Your Majesty's move put our family in the middle of it," the head of the Wang family said dissatisfied.

After listening to the words of the head of the Wang family, the disciple of the Wang family said respectfully: "The disciple will order to go down." ”

After listening to the words of the disciple of the Wang family, the head of the Wang family nodded: "Go to the Xie family to discuss with the head of the Xie family, and say that I will invite him over." ”

Although Wang Xie's family is not as good as before, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and it is still not comparable to those families who enter the gate valve later.

A stone rolled up a thousand waves, and at this time the Great Sui was boiling.

Looking at the secret information in his hand, Zhang Bairen frowned, these ministers actually went to the restaurant for dinner after they retreated, obviously they had a plan, and someone was threading needles and threads in it, constantly jointly stirring everyone's sensitive nerves.

"I'm afraid it's not been peaceful these days! I told everyone to be cautious and keep an eye on it, this information has been transmitted to the palace, please take a look at it!" Zhang Bairen handed over a stack of letters in his hand.

Brother Xiao, look at me, I look at you, Xiaolong said: "My lord, these news are just a gathering of ministers, eating, drinking, having fun, and visiting each other, is it necessary to be so nervous?"

"You don't understand it, it's better not to say it" Zhang Bairen slowly closed his eyes, afraid that things are not so simple.

Waving his hand to tell the Xiao brothers to retreat, Zhang Bairen sat alone in front of the desk, reminiscing about his past and present lives, and thinking about ways to break the situation.

After a while, Zhang Bairen's eyes suddenly lit up: "The only way I can think of at the moment is papermaking and movable type printing!"

Zhang Bairen, the four major inventions, can never forget, at present, the door valve family controls most of the books in the world, and it is difficult for the disciples of the poor to find a book.

"There are frozen bones on the stinky road of Zhumen's wine and meat, and you are rich and unkind, then it is no wonder that I am not afraid of these two artifacts, I am not afraid that the world will not return to my heart, and then I will be a new generation of Confucian saints" Zhang Bairen slowly took out his pen and ink: "Cai Lun's papermaking technique, what is its essence?"

Zhang Bairen frowned, Cai Lun's papermaking technology has long been there, but from the perspective of science and technology in the twenty-first century, there are still many drawbacks, and the paper produced is not perfect, and there are many difficulties in mass production.

What Zhang Bairen had to do was to improve papermaking in combination with Mohist techniques, and then launch movable type printing.

At this time, the Sui Dynasty did not have a printing word, and it was difficult to find a book in the Sui Dynasty, and if you wanted to have a book, you had to copy it by hand, and this rate can be imagined.

Once the world is flooded with books, the gate valve family loses its advantage, and the end can be imagined. Why take the initiative to calculate, when the time comes, the gate valve family will naturally be annihilated in the historical trend.

"This matter still needs to be carefully planned, the scope is too wide, if it leaks out a little, I will definitely die without a place to be buried, and all the families in the world will come to kill me" Zhang Bairen closed his eyes and thought about it and finalized the way to break the situation.

Outside

Turmoil is brewing

In the past three days, everyone in the world has known, and there are many discussions among scholars from all over the country.

in the Royal Palace

Yang Guang and a number of Confucian scholars and great Confucians gathered together.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I don't need to say much about the significance of the imperial examination, and you should be able to guess how much of the pressure on my body" Yang Guang sat on the dragon chair, and more than a dozen middle-aged and elderly men below stood respectfully.

"Your Majesty blesses the world, dares to set a precedent in ancient times, and breaks the blockade of the gate valve family, we will definitely help Your Majesty, and all the scholars in the world will support Your Majesty" Wang Tong saluted respectfully.

"What you want is Mr.'s words, you must have heard of the Lantern Festival banquet last night, all the ministers either agree or oppose, although the imperial examination is beneficial to the world, but some drawbacks are also criticized, I wonder if you gentlemen have thought of a good way?" Yang Guang looked at everyone.

Confucianism is even more anxious than him about the implementation of the imperial examination, which is conducive to the great prosperity of Confucianism, and Confucianism certainly attaches great importance to it.

"Your Majesty, we have discussed overnight and have come up with a countermeasure!" A gray-bearded Confucian scholar slowly stood up and said: "The Great Sui has a vast area, countless populations, and the scholars of the Han family do not know how many ordinary people, and now that the court is such a big place and so many locations, Your Majesty might as well strengthen the difficulty of the imperial examination, so as to reduce the opposition of the family gate lords, make a balance, and secondly, it can also calm down the incident, which can be regarded as a concession." ”

"How to solve the problem of morality!" Yang Guang frowned: "The matter of morality is in the hands of local officials, and if you pick it up, you will not send it into the hands of the gate valve family, and the so-called imperial examination is just a formality." ”

Yang Guang saw through the essence of the matter at a glance, and all the Confucian Confucians laughed: "Every year, Your Majesty can send people to various places to supervise, and the matter of the imperial examination is not urgent, Your Majesty regards it as a concession and uses it to block the mouth of the gate valve family." The moral assessment of the imperial examination is not yet through the hands of the gate valve family, the gate valve family also has the power to control the imperial examination, which is also a balance between the imperial court and the gate valve, let's stabilize the gate valve family first, and it is not too late to find an opportunity to slowly encroach on the power of the gate valve in the future, Your Majesty must not be in a hurry. The matter of the canal has caused people all over the world to complain, if Your Majesty continues like this, I am afraid that my Confucianism will not be able to block the mouth of the world, Your Majesty has not noticed that the dragon qi of the Son of Heaven in his body has become much thinner?"

"It's true," Yang Guang's face was ugly.

"This is the result of the deviation of people's hearts," Wang Tong continued: "Your Majesty still needs to think about it." ”

Yang Guang waved his hand in disappointment: "This matter will be handed over to all gentlemen, and you will come up with a charter as soon as possible." ”

After speaking, Yang Guang came to Yong'an Palace, looked at Empress Xiao who was consulting the information, Yang Guang said: "What is the queen's opinion on the matter of the imperial examination?"

"This is the movement of the ministers of the court, Your Majesty take a look," Empress Xiao handed over the letter.

Yang Guang took it and looked at it, and threw the letter out violently: "These guys have lived enough!"

"Your Majesty is acting too rashly, we have time, why not think about it slowly," Empress Xiao said.

"The canal has gone wrong, one wrong step and one wrong step, where is there still time to act in a roundabout way, if it is delayed any longer, when the dragon qi is exhausted, the Great Sui will perish" Yang Guang frowned: "I don't have time." ”

"The more critical it is at this critical moment, the more we can't mess with ourselves, the Great Sui soldiers and horses are in our hands, even if the dragon qi is exhausted, what can we do? Do these guys really dare to rebel?" Empress Xiao smiled coldly: "My Great Sui Iron Cavalry has experienced a hundred battles, but I am not a vegetarian. ”
