Chapter 705 Yang Chen Gives Gifts
The scholarly family, the immortal martial arts family, Confucianism, Taoism and divine religion, etc. control the world and rule the Quartet.

If any decree of the Emperor of the Great Zhou is to be truly carried out, it is necessary to selectively compromise with all walks of life in the world. If there is no compromise, with the strength of the family, it is absolutely possible to make the decree of the Emperor of the Great Zhou Not out of Yujing City.

In Yang Chen's good fortune jade butterfly, there are all kinds of things in the heavens and worlds, and even the history of the rise and fall of various dynasties on the major planets in the interstellar world are all contained in it.

On the major planets, there are naturally similar aristocratic families controlling the existence of dynasties.

"Your Majesty, I think the reason why the aristocratic family can control the world is because they monopolize the world's knowledge and wealth. As long as their monopoly is broken, they will have no way to continue to control the world."

Among the aristocratic families in the world, there are various Confucian and Taoist classics hidden in the scholarly family, such as the Yuan family in the Great Zhou Dynasty. The Yuan family did not talk about the past, but said that among the three adjacent generations, there appeared three generations and five princes. , The heyday of the family is like cooking oil in a raging fire, with flowers blooming like brocade.

The reason why the Yuan family is so prosperous is because the Yuan family has mastered a masterpiece of Confucianism and Taoism. This masterpiece is "Book of Rites". This book is the most original of all Confucianism and Taoism classics. The oldest book that records various etiquettes of Confucianism and Taoism.

The legend was written by the great sage of Confucianism and Taoism himself. It contains the most fundamental etiquette of Confucianism and Taoism. .

But in other families, there is no "Book of Rites", so they can't really understand the ancient etiquette and rules, but among the six classics of Confucianism and Taoism, etiquette is extremely important.

Rituals are used to determine relatives and estrangements, to resolve doubts, to distinguish similarities and differences, and to clarify right and wrong.

"Shi Ming" said: "Rites, style. Words get the style of things."

"Ritual Vessels" says: "Loyalty and trustworthiness are the foundation of rituals; righteousness is the foundation of rituals. There is no foundation without foundation, and no writing is impossible."

Ritual is the foundation of how a person behaves. It is also a standard for being a human being. Therefore, "The Analects of Confucius" says: "If you don't learn rituals, you can't stand."

Rites must originate in the sky, delicacies must be placed on the earth, listed among ghosts and gods, and reach funeral sacrifices and imperial sacrifices, crowns and court appointments.The sage shows it with propriety, and the countries of the world can get it and make it right.
Rituals range from emperors and generals to ordinary people, national sacrifices, interpersonal communication, and all aspects of life, all of which involve rituals.

Weddings and funerals, weddings and funerals, all of them need to be restrained by etiquette.

Because of the importance of etiquette, all dynasties had to take an examination of etiquette in selecting talents. Only those who passed the examination of etiquette could be qualified to serve in the imperial court.

However, the imperial court did not master the "Book of Rites", and could not truly interpret the meaning of rituals.

The Yuan family mastered the "Book of Rites". Once the court came up with a question, the Yuan family's answer to the ceremony was the most standard answer. Only when other people's answers were close to the Yuan family's answer could they get high marks.

The Yuan family, on the other hand, directly became No. 1 in the etiquette examination, ranking first, and grasped the final explanation of etiquette.

Therefore, every time there is a big exam, the members of the Yuan family must go to high school, and their children and grandchildren are endless.

This is the monopoly of knowledge, which brings prosperity to the family.

It is impossible for the children of poor families to obtain such knowledge. Even if they have the opportunity to take the exam, it is meaningless and they will not pass the exam.

Just to take care of the children from poor families in the world, so that they will not be too angry. Every time they take the big exam, one or two children from poor families will be selected to go to high school.

However, the final result of these poor high school students is often at the most basic level, doing some insignificant work, even if there is a person who is a genius in the poor family.

This character is also often won over by the family in the form of marriage, making him a member of the family and sharing some of the family's benefits.

For this point, all the emperors of the Great Zhou were well aware of it.

But knowing this, there is no way, because the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty also has a lot of classics, but the real foundation, original manuscripts, and great works handed down from generation to generation are all in the hands of the hundred saints, or the descendants of the hundred saints' disciples. hands.

This group of people formed an aristocratic family, monopolized knowledge, monopolized wealth, and monopolized the world.

"I also know that breaking their monopoly on knowledge and wealth will surely break the family's monopoly on the court, but how easy is it to do all of this?"

The emperors of the Great Zhou Dynasty all worked hard for this, but after thousands of years, they remained the same, with almost no results.

Many emperors were somewhat discouraged.

Only this generation of emperors, who have obtained the inheritance of the emperor, have great ambitions in their hearts and intend to unify the world. Naturally, they are dissatisfied with the family's coercion of the court, and have long thought of ways to expand the influence of the court.

It's just that there is no way.

Therefore, when he learned that Yang Chen from Weicheng in Tianhua Mansion had written poems that could affect the fate of the Great Zhou Dynasty, he immediately ordered his nine princes to go to Weicheng to find three poems that could affect the emperor's education. .

Yang Chen said, "It's not difficult to achieve this. I know that our Great Zhou Dynasty now adopts a scientific examination system. Scholars all over the world are eligible to participate in the grand examination. Anyone who excels in the examination can be named on the gold list. "

"As long as knowledge is circulated and people in the world have the opportunity to read and write, more and more people from poor families will go to high school. At that time, the imperial court will have many children from poor families as officials, and it will naturally be able to slowly check and balance the aristocratic family. .”

Yang Chen continued to pay attention.

Emperor Da Zhou said, "I also know this method. The only difficult problem is that I don't have the masterpieces handed down by the masters and saints. I only have some fragments of their masterpieces, which cannot be passed on to the children of poor families."

"Children from poor families can't learn real knowledge, and they can't compete with people from aristocratic families."

"Even if they are given a chance to take the big exam, they have no chance to pass."

"Occasionally having one or two high schools is a drop in the bucket and can't play a role."

Yang Chen said with a smile, "Your Majesty, please rest assured on this point. I dare not say anything else. I am still proficient in these Confucian and Taoist classics. I will gradually write these books, print them, and pass them on to the world."

"Speaking of which, I would like to give His Majesty a great gift. Your Majesty may know that in Weicheng, I have several printing workshops. They can print a lot of books every day because I have a The new printing technology, movable type printing, with this printing technology, can open up a great printing era."
