The Happy Prince of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 338 The End of Reform

"The so-called cultural reform is to let every common people have the opportunity to learn, and at the same time increase the subjects of study. We are not limited to simple poetry and composition, but to cultivate talents in an all-round way. Talents like Master Lu are Our final request."

Li Jiancheng's idea is not insignificant. In ancient times, scholars were basically descendants of clans, or descendants of clans that have declined.

The descendants of the clan have a good foundation. First of all, there must be seniors in the clan who have read poetry and books, which is very convenient for educating future generations; secondly, they also have an economic foundation. How can they get books without money?Perhaps some aristocratic families have their own collections of books, but how many such aristocratic families are there?

After all, there is no such high-tech printing technology as there will be in the future.

And those descendants of the declining clan yearn for reading even more.Because, what they often pursue in their hearts is to regain the glory of their ancestors. [

As for ordinary people, if there are no major changes, they will basically live their lives from sunrise to sunset.This has to be said to be a kind of sadness!

"So, for the sake of talents from all walks of life, we will not only practice Confucianism in the Tang Dynasty. We will reappear the thoughts of a hundred schools of thought in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, and create an unprecedented cultural holy land."

"Uh!"

Shocked by Li Jiancheng's great ideas, Pei Ji and others, as well as Li Shimin and Li Xiuning who heard Li Jiancheng's thoughts for the first time, were a little shocked. How far can a person have such a grand goal?

In this way, they feel that Li Jiancheng is even more difficult to see through.

Looking at Li Jiancheng's appearance, it seemed that he still had something to say. Everyone held their breath and listened with pricked ears.The experience of today is comparable to the experience of the past.

They vaguely feel that Li Jiancheng's thinking seems to be far more than that.

"Advocating the theories of various schools is only the first step, but it is also the most important step. Confucianism has imprisoned people's thinking for a long time and kept people stagnant, so it is imperative to break the dominant position of Confucianism."

"His Royal Highness, in this way, the Confucian loyalists headed by Kong Siying and others will definitely object strongly." Pei Ji said with some concern.

Although Pei Ji, Tang Jian, Liu Hongji, Dou Wei and some ministers in the court belonged to the clan, they were also influenced by Confucianism.But their thinking is more open, so they have come into contact with more ideas, such as military thinking, Mohist thought, etc., they have all touched, so they don't have much aversion to Li Jiancheng's proposal of "let a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend".

But Kong Siying and others are different.

They have always accepted Confucianism from birth, and they only have Confucianism in their minds. They think that except Confucianism is the orthodox thought, the others are evil and heretics, and they must be attacked.

In today's imperial court, there are not many Confucian loyalists like Kong Siying, so Pei Ji is so worried.

A cold light flashed in Li Jiancheng's eyes, and he said in a serious tone: "If they have no opinion, then forget it; if they want to hinder my progress of Datang, then don't blame me for being rude. No one can stop Datang from going Going further, anyone who stops Datang from advancing will be our enemy!"

Pei Ji and the others couldn't help trembling, and now they saw another side of Li Jiancheng.

When he said those words earlier, Li Jiancheng exuded a bit of a grandmaster's aura. Although Pei Ji and the others had fought Li Yuan on the battlefield, they were all ordinary soldiers. How could they have seen someone as powerful as Li Jiancheng?

So, just a face-to-face meeting, several people were startled by Li Jiancheng's momentum and sweated profusely.

At this moment, they really surrendered to Li Jiancheng, they surrendered from the bottom of their hearts.

They have seen Li Jiancheng's wisdom and scheming. Now that they have seen Li Jiancheng's strength, they understand that Li Jiancheng will be a man like Xiang Yu, but he is much smarter than Xiang Yu.Perhaps he is a figure like Qin Shihuang, Han Wudi, or something beyond both. [

Li Jiancheng's leak of the grandmaster's aura was naturally intentional.

His various reforms are naturally carefully selected from his previous life. They may be a bit ahead of the current people, but they are definitely beneficial policies.

He knew that Li Yuan would not object to his proposals, and there was a kind of tacit understanding between the father and son, without saying a word.Naturally, Li Shimin, Li Xiuning and others would not object to him.

The problematic ones are the ministers in the court, and the leaders are naturally the founding fathers Pei Ji and others.

Although it is Li Yuan who decides everything in the end, helpers are still necessary. If you have to do everything by yourself, Zhuge Kongming's lessons from the past have taught future generations a lesson.

As for Pei Ji and others, as the left and right hands, it is naturally best to get their consent. Only in this way can the decree be implemented well, which is beneficial to the development of Datang.But now, his hard work has really paid off, and it can be seen from the expressions of several people that they have already made a decision in their hearts.

Now that these heroes agree, the remaining Minister Xiami will have nothing to fear.At least, many ministers in the court depend on the direction of the wind, and as Li Yuan's right and left hands, Pei Ji and the others are good pointers.

"Haha!" Li Jiancheng laughed loudly, looking at the people, his eyes showed a forward momentum, "Several adults will help you, so there must be a few names in the [Celebrity List] in the future."

"[Celebrity list]?"

Hearing the new term, several people showed doubts on their faces.

"[Famous Scholars List] and [Famous Generals Pavilion] are similar, except that one is for military generals and the other is for civil servants. How many people understand?" Li Jiancheng looked at them with a chuckle.

Hearing Li Jiancheng's words, Pei Ji and the others breathed heavily.

In the early days, Li Jiancheng put forward the idea of ​​"Famous Generals' Pavilion", which made many civil servants feel aggrieved.They have always looked down on military generals. Now the military generals are famous for thousands of years, and their descendants enjoy the treatment of being raised by the court, but these self-proclaimed civil servants are not treated like this. Wouldn't it be a slap in the face?

And the most important thing is that they naturally hope in their hearts that their names will last forever, and their ancestors will be honored.

But now, hearing that civil servants are treated like this, Pei Ji and the others are naturally very excited. They don't need money and power, and they must not give up their fame through the ages.

After the excitement, Pei Ji and the others knelt down on the ground in unison, and said loudly: "The ministers should do their best to create a prosperous Tang Dynasty together with Your Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Haha, I can feel Qing's intentions, so let's work hard together." Li Yuan also said happily, and everyone around him could feel his excitement.

As a founding emperor, that is naturally an honor.

The few people talked in detail again, carefully considering Li Jiancheng's proposal and pondering over and over again, without any signs of fatigue.It wasn't until the eunuch shouted that they realized that noon time was approaching, so Pei Ji and the others, at the invitation of Li Yuan, went to the main hall collectively after enjoying the cooking skills of the royal chef.

Proposals discussed by several people were put forward without any suspense, economic reforms were passed one by one without any suspense, and cultural reforms followed.

However, after Li Jiancheng proposed it, it was strange that there was no opposition.

After observing Kong Siying, I saw that his eyes were tightly closed, and he stood in his position without any reaction.Let those ministers who believe in Confucianism and plan to follow Kong Siying to oppose Li Jiancheng's proposal die down. Since then, cultural reforms have been passed without any suspense. [

From the beginning to the end, Kong Siying didn't say a word.

It made everyone, including Li Jiancheng, feel unbelievable. Why did Kong Siying, who was still fighting Li Jiancheng in the early court, not say a word in the afternoon?Quite intriguing.

However, it is also a happy thing that the reform can be passed so smoothly.

Today's court meeting ended smoothly under Li Jiancheng's drastic reforms, and it was also the first time Li Jiancheng went to court.However, Li Jiancheng only put forward these reform proposals, and the specific relevant details have to be operated by various departments, so they cannot be implemented immediately.

However, these matters are beyond Li Jiancheng's control. He is only responsible for giving opinions, and it has nothing to do with him.

If anyone knew what he was thinking, they would definitely despise him greatly. As a prince, he only thought about how to evade his responsibility, which is really intolerable.
