Picked up a copy of Romance of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 965
In the third year of the Tianji period, a servant of the Lifu went up to play Shi Zhongtai to discuss matters of ritual and education. Zheng Yi's performance this time immediately caused a sensation in Shi Zhongtai. It was probably the first time Zheng Yi brought this matter to the fore. He not only gave an empty suggestion, but also handed over the enlightenment books written by Wang Su to Zhuge Liang. After reading these materials, Zhuge Liang was shocked. In the Hall of Houde, at the same time, Zheng Yi was also called to the meeting of the Shizhongtai by him.

Zheng Yi has always been qualified to enter the Shizhongtai, but because the emperor didn't like this person very much, Pang Tong did not bring him to the Shizhongtai. When Zheng Yi was brought here by the Huangmen, he was also Somewhat confused, he had also been to Houde Hall before, but he had never seen such a scene, the officials were sitting side by side, and behind them, there was a yellow gate recording their words.

The Huangmen was written by Wang Fu Wanggong back then. In order to restrict the officials from discussing the government, the Wanggong set up a rule that there should be more than three ministers discussing affairs, and the Huangmen must be recorded on the side. It is because of this regulation that the prince It is also hated to death by others. For the sages in the temple, this is distrust and disrespect to them.

Today, the supervision system established by the prince has played a big role. Every discussion of the servants in the middle stage is recorded by the Huangmen, and the recorded content is shown to the emperor. Zheng Yi looked at these and slowly Sitting slowly in the last seat, everyone greeted him with a smile, except for their status as ministers in the middle and Taiwan, in terms of official positions, these people are still the same as him, they are all servants.

Even Lu Pushe, who was promoted not long ago, was sitting here. After everyone arrived, Pang Tong said: "You have seen it too. Today, we invited Mr. Zheng over. , is played by Zheng Jun. Our main purpose today is to discuss this matter clearly..."

"If you have any questions, you can ask now."

At first, Liu Yi looked at Zheng Yi and asked, "Mr. Zheng, are the books you sent all your works? They are very well written, and I think they can be circulated in government schools. But , You brought more than a dozen books, you can't put them all in the official school, what do you think?" Hearing Liu Yi's question, everyone also looked at Zheng Yi eagerly.

Zheng Yi shook his head and said, "Liu Linggong, those were not written by me, they were all written by Wang Su, the prince's son."

"Wang Su???"

When they heard that it was written by Wang Su, everyone was a little surprised. They had also heard of Wang Su's name, but it was a bad name. Didn't it mean that this person is good at reading but has no talents?

"It was indeed written by Wang Jun. In addition, I never thought of putting these books in the official school." Zheng Yi said seriously: "My idea is to expand the printing office, or simply set up a book office. I am here to be responsible for the circulation of books in the world. Books written by private individuals must pass the review of the book office before they can be released. I think many books today will lead to bad young people."

"Of course, this is not the focus. The main thing is that the power of the temple can be used to promote the book. It is best to allow more people to read the book, and it is as excellent as I submitted. If this matter can be handed over to my Lifu, I will certainly not disappoint His Majesty."

Zheng Yi said seriously, but Man Chong on the side nodded and said: "It is true that a similar institution should be established. I have recently confiscated a lot of books, tampered with history, discredited sages, and someone even wrote a biography of a prince. , Said that the prince is the offspring of the mother's adultery." Man Chong looked very angry, this old-fashioned minister frowned, and said sternly: "For these people, they should be severely punished!"

Zheng Yi nodded and said: "That should be the case, but it can't be generalized. Gentlemen, I also hated these books, poems, and music before, but after I went to observe seriously, I found a problem. , Today's prosperous age is different from the ancient times. This is an unprecedented prosperous age. The common people have food and clothing. Three generations of emperors have already accomplished this for us. Today's people still need spiritual food and clothing."

"I think that books can be classified. We don't need to be too strict about some legendary stories. Of course, what Mr. Xiang Man said, discrediting talents and deliberately harming the country should not be approved. He will be punished heavily! All the lords should know about the books of the Great Han Dynasty, the Art of War, Confucian classics, and even some agricultural books, like the legendary stories that are widely circulated today, they are a unique product of Tianji Nian."

"As for these books and some poems, I thought they were worthless at first." Zheng Yi paused, and then continued: "But I realized later that, in fact, people don't understand any classics, and they don't want to read them." It is even more impossible to read history and the art of war. On the contrary, these books with strong stories and easy to understand are more popular among the common people. If we can review these story books, select more nutritious ones to promote benevolence and morality The common people also like to read the books, which will naturally help the etiquette.”

The more Zheng Yi said, the more excited he got. At first, the officials thought that this person was going to mess with some etiquette, and they didn't care about it. But when they heard Zheng Yi quickly talking about the many thoughts in their hearts, they also fell into deep thinking. What Yi said was something they had never thought about, and everyone hadn't been touched yet, but Zhuge Liang, who was sitting by the side, couldn't sit still. His eyes were full of joy, as if he had thought of something, but he didn't say anything. Break Zheng Yi.

Zheng Yi continued: "Not only can we not restrict these books, but we also need to encourage people in the world to do more creations like this. If these books can be turned into people's spiritual food and clothing, this is also a good thing. In addition, for The same is true for poems and music, review and management are carried out, private release is not allowed, and a lot of outstanding works are selected, and the temple can reward these people, right. In addition, I thought of a little book. "

The so-called book shop, that is, the place where books are sold, already existed during the time of Emperor Xiaowu. However, it is not under the jurisdiction of the temple. It is usually copied by the people and then sold. The quality is not too high. Zheng Yi said with a smile: "Why don't we set up a bookstore in the temple? This is different from the bookstore. There are some classics in the bookstore. In the bookstore, we sell some legends, stories, poems, music scores, story books and so on. .”

"In this way, it can not only play a role in promotion, but also benefit the authors. As long as they can benefit, there will be more and more authors."

"For these authors, we also need to set up an agency to govern."

Through Zheng Yi's words, the officials understood that this is not a single etiquette education at all, but a huge innovation, which needs to involve many aspects, probably involving all folk entertainment, Zheng Yi thought It was very big, just like that, he probably talked for more than two hours, during which the officials rested twice, when Zheng Yi finished speaking, everyone fell silent.

This is just an answer to Liu Yi's question, and it took two hours. How long will it take to discuss this matter?
However, no matter how long it takes, Pang Tong will not let everyone go easily. He also became interested in what Zheng Yi said, and kept asking about poems, music, and in the end, he even asked about Games, everyone is a little confused, playing games, can this be considered a courtesy?On the other hand, Zheng Yi looked at Pang Tong eagerly, as if he had found his comrades. He said seriously: "Playing games can be regarded as a kind of this kind. It is best to encourage the common people to do some sports, such as riding horses, harnessing car, swimming, etc.”

"Organized by the temple, the winner will be rewarded!"

At this time, the officials could not understand what they were saying, except for a few people who nodded their heads from time to time and listened indifferently.

"What about the official school?" Zhuge Liang asked again.

"Official school needs teaching materials, so it can't be such a long story. It must be strict teaching materials, explaining benevolence, righteousness, filial piety, etc., so that students understand what these are and why they are like this. Enlightenment!" Zheng Yi said earnestly, "Not only in the basic government studies, but also in every school, and in different schools, there must be prescribed etiquette."

"As for the official school, I have already started to write it myself. Don't worry, I will come up with the corresponding textbooks within three months. For different ages and different schools, different textbooks are needed. I think at least two books are needed. Only ten copies can meet the demand."

"Zheng Jun is a great talent!" Zhuge Liang said, and everyone felt the same way. Many ministers who usually disdain Zheng Yiduo lowered their heads in shame at this moment. Zheng Yi didn't think there was anything wrong with it. He looked at With Pang Tong, it is natural to want to continue the negotiation.

Only then did Pang Tong look at the crowd, and said, "In this case, I will bother you to have a formal discussion. Everyone, for Zheng Jun's words, opponents raise their hands to signal!" He had just finished speaking when he saw someone Two people raised their hands, one of them was Liu Ba, the other was Gu Yong, Pang Tong motioned for Liu Ba to stand up and speak, Liu Ba said seriously: "Duke Zheng's idea is very good, but if you want to implement it concretely, you should You have to come up with a specific amount of money to spend.”

"The temple is building canals and improving road conditions at the same time, there is really not much money."

Liu Ba is still concerned about money. As for Gu Yong, he is a servant of the Printing House. His reason for objecting is also very simple, that is, the expansion of the Printing House. Today’s Printing House is already big enough. , Add a few more departments, then they have to move out of Luo County, Luo County is overcrowded, they can't squeeze in this mansion, these are small problems, and then everyone continued to discuss.

He successively decided to set up a library house, but felt that the name was inappropriate, so Pang Tong personally named it Wenhua House, and confirmed what Zheng Yi said one by one.

The work efficiency is indeed very high, busy until midnight, most of the things have been settled.
