Chapter 68: Playing Right

The human brain is a strange thing, once it is determined that something has not happened, or there is no relevant evidence, the brain will still make up some content in its own right, and it is convinced that it is the truth.

Tianhuo's fabrication and ambiguity became a very reasonable explanation for Emperor Song, and he constantly improved and strengthened the image of Ah Li imagined in Emperor Song's heart.

Tianhuo's subsequent conversation became simple, as long as he echoed Emperor Song's words, or at the appropriate time used rhetorical questions to provoke Emperor Song's topic.

The conversation lasted for more than a quarter of an hour, and with the joint efforts of Emperor Song and Tianhuo, a concrete image of Ah Li finally appeared in the hearts of the two.

Beautiful and cold, but does not reject people thousands of miles away, smart and clever, but not losing maturity and stability, knowledgeable, caring and willing to help others, virtuous and virtuous, loyal and filial children.

Speaking of which, not only did Emperor Song think that Ah Li was a wonderful girl, but even Tianhuo himself began to believe that the real Ah Li should be like this.

In the end, the two sides ended the topic with satisfaction, and Emperor Song said with some desire: "Tianhuo, I am actually very concerned about the Xuanji faction, but there are too many men on your mountain, and Ah Li is a girl, so I pay special attention."

I have many sons and girls, especially if I haven't given birth to a princess for nearly a thousand years, I feel very close to Ah Li, and I really want to accept her as a righteous daughter, do you think she will agree?"

Tianhuo was also happy and surprised in his heart, happy that if Ah Lizhen was accepted as a righteous daughter by Emperor Song, it would definitely be a great thing for the Xuanji faction, and what was surprising was that Ah Li had never seen this person at all, if there was no such woman, it would be a big crime to bully the king, how to explain it in the future.

What worries Tianhuo even more is that it is impossible for Emperor Song to accept a woman he has never met as a righteous daughter, which must involve the secret luck in the palace, Ah Li may be a woman from the royal family who is in the people, and I don't know if this kind of thing is a blessing or a curse in the Xuanji faction.

Tianhuo thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, how can Ah Li He De gain your favor, how can she refuse such a good thing, Xiaomin is here to thank the emperor for his kindness for his junior sister." ”

Emperor Song looked at Tianhuo with a smile, and praised in his heart that this young man is really on the road, the more he looks at it, the more he likes it, no wonder Ah Li will have a secret affection for him, and Lao Nineteen also obeys him, coupled with his identity as a student of Taiyi Academy, it is indeed worth cultivating.

"Tianhuo, there are more than twenty days before you report to Taiyi Academy, have you and Duanjun Wang done everything in Dangtu?"

Tianhuo was shocked when he heard this, and immediately reacted, the things he was doing seemed to be secret, but he couldn't escape the ears and eyes of the Great Song Tianzi at all, he already knew that he had arranged the teleportation array, and Lai couldn't get rid of it, but seeing that the emperor didn't mean to be mad, Tianhuo felt that he had to admit it skillfully.

"Reporting to the emperor, the King of Duanjun and the Xuanji faction have had many contacts in the Xiuzhen trade in Yunnan and Guizhou, and the cooperation has always been pleasant. Xiaomin entered Beijing this time, Duanjun Wang just bought a piece of land in Dangtu, and wanted to make a production and processing base, and Xiaomin had some research on infrastructure, so Duanjun Wang entrusted me to supervise. ”

"Is it just to supervise the infrastructure?" Emperor Song glanced at Tianhuo.

Tianhuo only felt a chill on his body, and he was even more sure that Emperor Song knew about the teleportation array.

"There is also a plan for industrial layout and material transportation, so as to improve the logistics and transportation timeliness between Xuanji and the capital......"

Emperor Song laughed: "Tianhuo, do you think that the identity of a student of Taiyi Academy can make me jealous and dare not punish you?"

Tianhuo hurriedly bounced off the stool and lay on the ground: "Your Majesty, the little people know that they are wrong, and they shouldn't do anything that violates the rules of the imperial court." However, Xiaomin feels that some things that benefit the country and the people are worth promoting, and if they are kept on the shelf, it will not benefit the country and the people. ”

Emperor Song nodded and said: "What you said is a bit crooked, but some advanced technologies cannot be transferred from government-run military to civilian use without full demonstration, because there are many uncertain factors in the middle that cannot be controlled."

As the king of a country, I think about the stability of the country and the food and clothing of the people, followed by technological innovation and the cultivation of the people, do you understand?"

Tianhuo said in fear: "It's Xiaomin's inconsiderate thinking that has caused trouble to the emperor." ”

"Get up, I don't blame you, since your teleportation array has been built, it's a bit of a waste to dismantle it directly.

Tomorrow, I will send someone from Si Tianjian to inspect and inspect, and if it meets the safety standards, it will be registered in the register and supervised by the palace, and the daily list of teleportation items will be submitted on a monthly basis, and Si Tianjian will also check the use of the teleportation array at any time. ”

Tianhuo was overjoyed, it seemed that Emperor Song was in a very good mood today, so he could acquiesce to his behavior, and Tianhuo thanked him repeatedly before getting up.

Emperor Song said curiously: "Tianhuo, you are laying such a big situation now, when you enter the Taiyi Academy, you are not allowed to go out of the mountain in the first year, how can you manage these industries?"

Tianhuo pondered for a moment and said: "Report to the emperor, in fact, the way of business is not so troublesome, now the Xuanji branch and the Dangtu personnel are complete, the workshop tools are about to be prepared, and the supply of raw materials is orderly, and the rest is the production process and supervision."

Xiaomin's master and brothers will come to Jinling in the near future, and the supervision will be taken over by a few of my senior brothers, as long as the production and sales are carried out according to the original plan and process, the planned business goals will definitely be achieved. ”

Emperor Song raised his eyebrows: "Is it really so powerful? Many of my business doctors have never explained the way of business so clearly and concisely, Tianhuo, you are indeed very talented in this regard." ”

Tianhuo Zhengse said: "The emperor praised it falsely, in fact, as long as everyone can do 'each performing his duties and fulfilling his responsibilities', it is not difficult to do anything, but many times most people are coping with errands and getting by, and there are a small number of people who are vegetarian and passive and slacking off, so many things that should be done well are not good." ”

Tianhuo's words resonated greatly with Emperor Song, and he couldn't help but pat the armrest of the brocade couch and stood up: "Tianhuo, your words are really bloody, pointing out the shortcomings that currently plague the Great Song Dynasty, just because no one has fulfilled their responsibilities and made the best use of things, so the speed of the development of the Song Kingdom has been seriously slowed down, I really see it in my eyes and am angry in my heart." ”

Tianhuo also hurriedly got up and said: "The emperor is angry, the so-called 'governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh', some things can be solved in a hurry, you are now in the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, you can gradually get rid of maladministration, and cultivate a group of new officials who are loyal to the monarch and patriotic, and honest to supplement the existing official ranks."

Through the efforts of ten years, one hundred years, and one thousand years, we will gradually replace the original corrupt corrupt officials and ruffians with qualified civil and military generals, and I believe that the emperor will definitely be able to create a new situation in the Song Dynasty, and the emperor will also become a Ming monarch who has been recited by the world for thousands of years. ”

Emperor Song's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he paced up with some emotion, he tried to get rid of maladministration and refresh the official system over the years, but the results were not great, and sometimes he wanted to mix for another thousand years, choose a reliable successor from among his sons, and throw this burden to him.

But today's conversation with Tianhuo reawakened the dream of Zhongxing in Emperor Song's heart, and he suddenly remembered that the Da Luo faction had made an evaluation of this group of students who had entered Taiyi Academy, and the evaluation of Tianhuo was extremely high.

Emperor Song didn't have the energy to pay attention to these future stars whose cultivation was still very low, he just scanned the evaluation at that time, and remembered that the above evaluation of Tianhuo was a teenager in the top twenty in the mainland's qualifications, especially in terms of overall planning, and it was really the case today.

Emperor Song regretted a little, when he summoned Tianhuo, he only wanted to know the news of Ah Li, but he ignored the understanding of Tianhuo, this young man is equally important to Song Guo, as long as he can grow up, he may be the future optimus pillar of Song Guo.

If the relationship between him and Ah Li is really as rumored, he will be able to make the royal family even more powerful as a concubine in the future; if not, it will also be a blessing for the Song Kingdom that such a person will enter the prime minister in the future.

Emperor Song immediately thought of how many geniuses the Song Kingdom and the imperial family had lost because of the poor system of selecting talents, which was really a sigh.

Emperor Song decided to invest in Tianhuo in advance to trap him before the mainland and other forces of the Song Kingdom.

"Tianhuo, what you said today has inspired me a lot, can you sort out your thoughts and make a strategy for me to write, so that I can think about it from time to time. ”

Tianhuo felt flattered, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, you are saying this to torture the small people, how dare the small people write these immature ideas and submit them to the literature." ”

Wang Jien, who was standing quietly on the side, was also shocked in his heart, he served Emperor Song since he was a child, Emperor Song was a good emperor who was strict and guarded, and rarely did anything out of line, so although there were various forces against him for so many years, there were few criticisms and criticisms of his governance.

Emperor Song rarely has this kind of trust and affection for any courtier, and today Emperor Song's love for Tianhuo is far beyond his code of conduct, and it is far from being explained by Tianhuo and Ah Li.

When Wang Jien was hesitating to remind Emperor Song, he heard Emperor Song give an order.

"Ji'en, tomorrow you will find the Ministry of Officials to first compile Tianhuo into Taixue and confer the title of Doctor of the Five Classics. ”

Wang Jien was even more shocked in his heart, Taixue was the highest official institution of the Great Song Dynasty and belonged to Guozijian.

Guozijian mainly teaches the children of officials and selects students from various provinces, while Taixue mainly educates the children of clans, nobles, and meritorious heroes, which is the dream place of Song scholars.

The Doctor of the Five Classics is the lecturer of Taixue, who is responsible for teaching the children of these clans, nobles, and meritorious heroes, although the grade is not high, but the status is respected, and he can meet many nobles.

Such honorable official positions are awarded to well-known scholars, and since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, there has never been a sixteen-year-old doctor of the Five Classics, which makes Wang Jien a little embarrassed.

"Your Majesty, it is not difficult for Tianhuo to enter Taixue, but this doctor of the Five Classics cannot be taught lightly, otherwise everyone in the Hanlin Academy and the Guozijian will be annoyed to death by the emperor. ”

Tianhuo was also very surprised: "Your Majesty, Mr. Wang is reasonable, and Xiaomin also feels that he can't bear such a heavy responsibility, and he will cause trouble for the emperor." ”

Emperor Song frowned, he was also a little jealous of those rotten Confucians, he couldn't beat them, he couldn't kill them, and if they didn't have the slightest intention, someone would dare to jump out and kill them, so that you, the emperor, would be stinking for 10,000 years.

Emperor Song thought about it for a long time and said: "Then first compile Tianhuo into Taixue, and do not confer titles for the time being, and after his strategy is presented, I will let the old guys take the initiative to ask him for the title!"
