Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 4183 This man is a traitor
Kong Yingda also looked strange. The Minister of Rites was the first of the six departments in name, and one of the most justifiable Zaifu in the political affairs hall. He was not even a step away from the head of Zaifu. Possessing extraordinary appeal, it seems to be a retreat, but in fact it has great authority...

Why did Fang Jun refuse to go to the yamen to preside over the ministry?

However, he was open-minded and didn't ask Fang Jun what the reason was. He only said to his son, "Erlang is resourceful and has a high-level vision. How can you match his vision? You only need to perform your duties well, and don't ask about the rest."

Kong Zhiyue didn't dare to say it again, but mentioned another thing: "Nowadays, the pharmacopoeia that is practiced in the world uses the "Compendium of Materia Medica" left by Mr. Bai, but there are many errors. After reading it, it really is. The way of medicine, the place of life and death, can determine the life or death of a person in the slightest, how dare you make mistakes? There are many printing shops under the name of the Duke of Yue, can you recompile this book and publish it all over the world?"

"Mr. Bai" is Tao Hongjing, the "great god" of the Southern Dynasties. This gentleman was born in Taoism. He was a scholar of heaven and man.

Kong Yingda was quite supportive of this, and said to Fang Jun: "Although it is expensive to compile a book, it is a good thing to benefit the common people. Erlang's family has no wealth and wealth, so he should imitate the original compilation of "Dictionary" and "Agricultural Book". "The original intention of the book has always been consistent. The fame and fortune of money and silk are only fleeting, but a book can be passed down forever, and the name of Erlang can also be famous for a hundred generations. This is the avenue."

The three immortals that are admired by the world are the three immortals. In the final analysis, it is because the Chinese culture cares more about the "behind the name". Some people's so-called "After I die, I will not care about the flood." Ridiculous.

Because Fang Jun's printing house cooperated with Li Tai, the king of Wei, to print classics with movable type printing, which is low-cost and benefits countless poor students all over the world. Moreover, Fang Jun's family has billions of dollars and is rich enough to rival the country. Such good deeds for the benefit of the common people should come out of their own accord. a force.

And Fang Jun is very good at editing books...

Fang Jun didn't care about spending money and silk, he thought about it, and said, "It's not difficult, but after His Royal Highness is enthroned, I advise His Highness that the imperial court will lead the compilation of this book, and there is no need to re-edit it. Based on the "Compendium of Materia Medica", "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" and other books, and then bring together famous doctors from all over the world to compile a "Pharmacopoeia" that can be used in the world, and publish it all over the world, I will suggest that you lead the world."

As far as he knows, there has been no pharmacopoeia compiled by the central government since ancient times. If it can become the first in history, it can be regarded as a gift for Li Chengqian to ascend the throne.

As long as there is some pursuit of the emperor, the first thing to consider after ascending the throne, in addition to building the tomb, is to write books...

As for whether Kong Zhiyue can be qualified for the position of editor-in-chief, there is no need to worry. There are very few books these days, and with the popularity of Huang-laozhi, people naturally pay attention to physical health in addition to self-cultivation. Apart from classics, most scholars also read through Medical books, believe in "do not be a good doctor, that is, a good doctor".

Besides, the Confucius family has a family background, even if Kong Zhiyue is not good, there is the great god Kong Yingda behind him, which can be regarded as a generous gift to the Confucius family.

Kong Zhiyue was really excited, got up and bowed his thanks, and said humbly: "What kind of virtue and ability do I dare to covet the position of editor-in-chief? As long as I can participate in it and attach it to my tail, my wish will be fulfilled. Many thanks to Duke Yue for the promotion."

Fang Jun laughed and said, "You and I are good friends, why do you have to be so polite? But if you are really grateful, you might as well persuade your old father to help me choose a suitable age for His Royal Highness. No, I'm really ashamed of myself in this regard."

Kong Yingda said angrily: "I know that you are uneasy and kind when you come to the door for no reason! You are the Minister of Rites, and the yamen are all great scholars who have learned from ancient and modern. Why do I need to be an old man?"

However, seeing his son's hopeful eyes, his heart softened, and he finally agreed with a sigh: "So, I'll make it difficult."

He has already gone to work. In his spare time, he can either pay attention to the situation of prefectural and rural schools all over the world with Li Tai, the king of Wei, or go to Lin Quan to entertain his grandsons, and he really does not want to get involved in the central affairs.

*****
After leaving the Confucius family, before he could get on the horse to return home, he saw a waiter in the palace outside the door. Talking about the summoning of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Fang Jun did not dare to neglect, he quickly got on his horse and rode straight to Chengtianmen, and after entering the palace, he arrived at Wu Dedian asked to see the prince.

In the study, Li Chengqian repeated the previous advice from Liu Wei and asked Fang Jun for his opinion.

Fang Jun immediately said: "Liu Sidao is extremely capable, but he has a bad mind and is a flattering minister!"

Li Chengqian was shocked: "Why did Erlang say this?"

Although Liu Ji's stance is not firm and swaying from side to side, since he has been in charge of the censor's desk for many years when his father is on the throne, he should be a person with a strong character and a high level of knowledge. Comments?

Fang Jun took a sip of tea and explained: "The King of Jin is also the direct son of the late emperor, and when the late emperor was there, he always had the idea of ​​making him the heir, the court and the public knew it, and at this moment, the King of Jin claimed to have the edict of the late emperor in his hand, and the court and the public knew. There are many supporters both up and down, secretly and secretly, and at this moment, His Highness is competing with King Jin for the throne, and there are almost countless people who are secretly linked with him."

Li Chengqian nodded.

This "uncountable" does not mean that there are too many people to count, but that many people support him, the prince, in the open, but they also support the King of Jin in secret.

But there are definitely a lot of them.

Fang Jun continued: "If it is said that once there is evidence, it will be put in prison for trial, and then punished, it will definitely be a prison, which will cause people to panic! What's more, if several princes of the previous emperor are involved, will His Highness kill the relatives righteously?"

Li Chengqian said hesitantly: "This... As long as it is not a heinous crime, how can Gu be punished?"

Not to mention that he has a weak personality and treats people with generosity. The single "hidden relatives" alone made him avoid the rat, and he couldn't handle it if he wanted to.

In these days, among the clans, "close relatives and relatives are hidden" is the mainstream. Whoever kills relatives righteously will not only be praised for "unselfishness", but will be reviled by the world.

At the time of the Qin Dynasty, the law stipulated that "children sue their parents, and ministers and concubines sue the master. If you don't announce it, don't listen to it, but do it, and the one who tells it is guilty."Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty dismissed hundreds of schools of thought and respected only Confucianism. Confucianism has already penetrated into all aspects of society and has become the foundation of the social structure. The practice of "king, subject, father and son, hides relatives from each other" is not inconsistent.

Not to mention that now that the previous emperor has died, the King Jin's slogan for the throne includes "persecution of siblings". If the brothers who colluded with the King of Jin were severely punished, wouldn't it be true?

Fang Jun sighed: "That's why Wei Chen said that Liu Sidao is not a thing, if he really acted according to his advice, the 'Hundred Knights' would instantly grow, ravaging the government and the public, and the number of people involved would be unknown. The strictness of the law will only think that His Royal Highness is cruel and cruel, and all the infamy is attributed to His Highness, which is difficult to wash away. It is just like Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. Could it be that Emperor Yang of Sui is really as abusive and cruel as the rumors in the world? Among them, you must know how much effort and stumbles the Guanlongmen valve has made."

What he said was actually quite untrue.

What is "Hundred Knights"?Pure "spy agency"!Throughout the ages, all dynasties and dynasties have had similar departments, and without exception, they will be reviled by future generations, and even the emperor who has reused these secret agents has been hacked.

But in fact, such a department is of great importance to the country. It cannot prevent possible rebellions in the country. It can also detect the movements of enemy countries and make targeted responses in advance to ensure stability and security inside and outside the country.

As a result, because some emperors relied on them to complete their own high-pressure rule, these spy agencies were separated from the court, not under the supervision of hundreds of officials, and only under the command of the emperor, which seriously violated the interests of the official class, so they strongly opposed it.

Not only did they object, but the civil servants who had the right to speak had to discredit them... The emperor's words may not be passed on to later generations, but the articles of the literati can certainly be.

Once the "Hundred Horsemen" business is booming, it will inevitably lead to criticism from the government and the public.

As the new leader of the civil service, Liu Wei can fully control the right to speak. He is an advocate who will not be known to outsiders. On the contrary, he is sure that Li Chengqian will definitely seek advice from Fang Jun, a confidant and close minister. Push it to Fang Jun.

At that time, the prince will face the heavy pressure of public opinion, and with his soft personality, he may not hold a grudge against Fang Jun...

Li Chengqian is not an idiot either. Although Fang Jun's words were somewhat unfinished, he understood it after a little pondering.

With a wry smile, he said, "Guo is very reliant on Erlang, but unexpectedly it became a weakness for others to criticize, and he almost missed a major event."

Fang Jun naturally wouldn't say something stupid like "His Royal Highness should have his own opinions, and he should not seek the opinions of civil servants on everything". In a society of imperial power, it is more important to have the Holy Family than the ability of the heavens. As long as the Holy Family is not lost, the natural authority holding.

And where is the Holy Family manifested?
Naturally, the influence on the king...

"His Royal Highness does not need to do this. As the saying goes, one person is short, and two are long. Why was the late emperor good at giving advice and dare to give advice? Just because listening to both will make it clear, and listening to partiality will make it dark. It is also the truth that the late emperor set up a political affairs hall to assist in handling state affairs. No matter how amazing talent is, and the resourcefulness is outstanding, it is inevitable that there will be some suddenness, but if a group of smart people gather in one place to deal with problems, the probability of making mistakes can be minimized. As a king, it is best not to be stubborn and conceited. When you know people and employ people, why worry about the decline of the society and the country?"

Therefore, the "Ming Lord" is the most loved and hated, because the "Ming Lord" is often extremely self-confident, extremely positive, and decisive in killing.

Who would be willing to serve under such an emperor, with precarious situations and threats to life and property at any time?

This is the downside of "rule of man".
