Chapter 951 makes you bow your head
"Why did the prince leave the palace?"
Jia Pingan felt that at this moment, Li Zhi should brag with his wife and children instead of letting the prince out of the palace.
Li Hong dismounted and said, "Aye told Gu to take a look."
"Looking at what?"
"Look at the people."
This is very spiritual.
"So what did you see?"
Li Hong pondered.
"In the past, the people gathered together with great power and intimidation. But now they disperse and look at Chang'an City alone... they feel that there is nothing unusual, and they are all the same as in the past. Those who should farm the land, and those who should do business..."
"What's that working?"
Jia Pingan asked.
Jiang Feng coughed dryly, "It happens occasionally."
Zhang Song nodded, "The people mistakenly thought that there were thieves oppressing His Majesty, so they gathered together."
Jia Pingan looked at them, frowned and said, "You are here to teach the prince as well..."
The faces of the two of them turned red, and Zhang Song said angrily, "Mr. Jia thinks something is wrong?"
"Of course not."
Jia Pingan said flatly: "The book of sages is not all-encompassing. If you really regard the book of sages as a magic weapon that you can seek after everything is in doubt, you will become a laughingstock of the ages sooner or later."
The monopoly of Confucianism became rigid in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, no, it became more and more rigid, becoming a status similar to religion.
The gentry at the time thought it was very clever, but they didn't know that it was a joke in the eyes of later generations.
There are gentlemen on both sides, and there is a quarrel between the gentlemen, and Li Hong is quite curious.
Jia Pingan looked at the two men contemptuously, and said: "This is the general trend. Why did the first emperor say that the people are like water, and the king is like a boat? The emperor has the people in his heart, and he always remembers the people, so you will naturally govern in an upright manner, with the interests of the people, and with the interests of the people. Tang’s interests are the starting point. On the other hand, the people will firmly protect your ship, whoever wants to shake you is shaking the world, who can shake the world?”
Li Hong's eyes lit up, "Uncle, no one has ever said that to me. They all said that what the late emperor said meant that taxes should be lightened..."
"That's just a cliché. If you don't have people in your heart, then you spend today and tomorrow. Build a palace today, and reward countless fertile lands and money to the dignitaries tomorrow... Is it useful? The fat of the people and the anointing of the people are in it..."
"You have people in your heart, and before you spend money, you will think about whether the money should be spent, whether it can be saved...With such thoughts, the people will regard the emperor as a god!"
"The people's request is very simple. Some people remember their well-being, and some people think about whether this decision is good or bad for them before making a decision... In this way, everyone will be of one mind."
Everything is based on the interests of the people.
Li Hong nodded, "You can't have selfish desires in governing the country."
Thumbs up!
Jia Pingan praised the elder nephew, "Yes, you can have it when you come down, but when you govern the country, you must have the people of Tang in your heart, and they are the starting point for all decisions."
The emperor is also an ordinary person, he also wants to eat and drink, and he also likes beautiful women and food. Those who have no desires are not people, they are dolls.
Jiang Feng and the two looked ugly, but Jia Pingan turned a blind eye.
"Thousands of words, what articles and poems, what words of sages, thousands of words are summed up into two words, original intention!"
"Come and take a look at Chang'an City today."
In the eyes of Jiang Feng and Zhang Song, Jia Pingan is instilling poisonous chicken soup into the prince at this moment.
We have taught the prince for several years, but you ignored the words of countless sages?
Jia Pingan walked slowly, holding his sleeve for a while, looking at Jiang Feng and the others curiously, thinking that these people would change their faces, turning green and purple for a while, it was fun!
"Everywhere in Chang'an city cursed me yesterday, saying that I bewitched the king, and today they will definitely kill me... But before they kill me, they have to make His Majesty bow his head."
"Mr. Jia Jun is careful!" Jiang Feng's face was not bruised, but pale.
"Is this wrong?" Jia Pingan looked back at him, "Say what you said, is it to cover up those people, or do you think it's wrong?"
Jiang Feng was speechless.
"The biggest problem with those people is pretending! What's wrong with pretending? They just want to pretend to be gentlemen, as if their buttocks would be exposed otherwise, and they look extremely ugly!"
The prince couldn't help laughing.
Jia Ping'an also laughed, "The people mobilized in full force today and shouted Long Live Your Majesty in front of the imperial city. That voice could shake the world, not to mention a few thieves and dignitaries. But prince, do you know why the people can do this?"
Li Hong was contemplating, but Jia Pingan didn't bother.
After a long time, Li Hong said: "Yes...does Aye have people in his heart? Then the people will protect him."
Jia Pingan looked at him and laughed for a long time.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Jiang Feng and the others behind him looked ugly.
"Yes. Think about what His Majesty has done since he came to the throne. Wherever there is a famine, he will reduce taxes and allocate money and food without hesitation. Back then, the ground outside Chang'an was so full that the surrounding people could not irrigate the poor harvest. Prime Minister Xu took the initiative , How many royal dignitaries were roaring at that time? But His Majesty ignored it..."
"Suppress the Turks, cut off Tubo's ambitions for the Tang Dynasty, and destroy the three kingdoms of Liaodong... After the revision of internal affairs, it is to eliminate foreign enemies. Your Majesty has also done a good job."
"There is a steelyard in the hearts of the people. Whoever treats them well will be remembered. What are you shouting? I am an upright gentleman, and we will definitely bring about a glorious and prosperous world when we take charge of the government...Who will believe it? What your majesty does, the common people will see In my eyes, in my heart, I heard that someone is going to force His Majesty..."
Jia Pingan looked at Li Hong and said seriously: "Let me put it bluntly. The people are afraid of losing such an emperor who remembers their sufferings, so they will be angry. If this anger is not guided, those powerful and powerful who impeach today will Torn to pieces by the people...no army can stop it!"
"What is the people's heart?" Jia Pingan is following the teachings, "The people's heart means that the people know that you are good to them.
…
"Congratulations, Your Majesty."
When Li Zhi arrived at the queen's place, Wu Mei congratulated with the palace people.
"Why do you like it?"
Li Zhi glanced at the medical officers, who nodded, indicating that the queen is fine.
Wu Mei raised her head and said: "Today, thousands of people outside are shouting Long Live Your Majesty. This is the hearts of the people. Emperors throughout the ages can make the hearts of the people like this...but my concubines can't remember it. If the hearts of the people are stable, the country will be stable, and prosperity can only be expected."
Li Zhi smiled and said, "I'm still far behind."
The two sat down, Wu Mei asked: "Why did Your Majesty let Wulang leave the palace?"
When Li Zhi saw Shao Peng taking people to make tea, he couldn't help coughing dryly, and then said: "Wu Lang reads books and observes politics on weekdays, and those people talk about it...I don't blame them, after all, they are not emperors. Emperors must stand In the clouds, overlooking all living beings, but also bending down, rubbing all living beings with hands... how to control one high and one low? This is the way of the emperor."
The tea came, Wu Mei glanced at it first, saw that there were three pieces of tea leaves, and said with satisfaction: "Your Majesty is saying that they are too high?"
"right."
Li Zhi took the teacup and was disappointed when he saw the number of tea leaves. "Today, the people gathered and shouted. This is the hearts of the people, but where does the hearts of the people come from? Naturally, it comes from the emperor. Without the kindness of the past, how can the crowds cheer today?" ? There is no great martial arts to the outside world, how can today's momentum be like a rainbow? The people's hearts have always been simple, but they have never been simple. If you understand it thoroughly, you are a wise gentleman, and if you don't understand it, you are just mediocre."
"Then why doesn't His Majesty teach Goro these principles?"
Li Zhi took a sip of tea, felt dull, and couldn't help frowning, "I said it, but Goro didn't understand it, so I asked him to take a look and feel it."
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is here."
"Oh!" Li Zhi said with a smile: "Wu Lang came back so quickly, could it be that he was slack? Or did he come in because he had some insight."
Li Hong came in, and after saluting, Li Zhi asked: "Wulang came out of the palace, but did he realize what is popular support?"
Zeng Xianglin and the others were sweating in their hearts... Crown Princes are never easy, you have to fit the emperor's mind in details and major events, otherwise the emperor will feel out of place with you in the long run.
Li Hong said: "Aye, people's hearts mean that the people think you are good to them."
Li Zhi was taken aback, "..."
Wu Mei was taken aback, "..."
The prince is still ignorant of all the truths, but this sentence makes people feel enlightened.
Public support means that people think you treat them well!
Sincerely!
Li Zhi thought of the truths he told the prince, and couldn't help covering his forehead and said: "Yes, I said it all, but it's too cumbersome, but it's not as good as this sentence."
Wu Mei said joyfully: "It makes people even more happy that Wu Lang has this insight."
"Aniang, it was my uncle who said it."
Li Zhi's face turned dark.
What about the self-esteem of the old father?
Li Hong talked eloquently, "Uncle said that the common people don't understand the principles, they only know who treats me well, then I treat him well. Since Aye ascended the throne, he has administered good governance to the common people and won all the foreign wars. As a result, the country flourished day by day. The foreign enemies are gradually withering... The people remember this, so when they hear that someone is going to persecute Aye, they will be afraid of losing Aye, so they flock to protect those who can protect themselves."
To protect those who can protect themselves.
This is a bit awkward, but after thinking it over clearly, it makes a lot of sense.
Wang Zhongliang couldn't help blurting out, "Whoever can protect the people, the people will protect him."
Huh!
This dog can actually understand some truths?
Li Zhi looked at the prince, "What is Ming Jun?"
Li Hong said: "An emperor who regards the Tang Dynasty and the interests of the people as the most important thing in administration is a wise emperor."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The emperor's laughter echoed in the hall, and the reward came immediately.
The emperor's handwriting was too great, and there were countless rewards.
Happy!
Everyone can see the emperor's joy.
Li Zhi said with a smile: "I have been worried that there will be no successors, and I am even more worried about the teaching of Wulang's unknown teacher. Although I can teach him the emperor's art, it is what the emperor should do by gaining the strengths of others, not just obeying the words of one family."
Wu Mei was also quite happy, "Ping An is honest and honest. If you have something in your heart, you can tell Goro without hesitation. Those who are not selfless can't say these words."
Li Zhi nodded, "Those gentlemen who taught the prince Confucianism are all about the people and the words of the sages all day long. I was also confused in the past. The words of the sages must be right? Confucius was embarrassed and no one wanted to use him, so he took his disciples They traveled around the world for official positions. Later, during the Han Dynasty, Confucianism was lucky to become a prominent school, and a group of Confucianists clamored that his words were all canonical... stupid!"
“No one’s words are the standard. Such people have no opinions, or they have lost their conscience for their own interests!”
Wu Mei is obviously not one to follow the rules.
"I somewhat regret letting them enlighten the prince at the beginning, but luckily let Jia Pingan come in, and the new learning collided with Confucianism. Now it seems that if the Confucianism is not crowded, it will definitely lose to the new learning."
…
Jia Ping'an went to the household department.
Seeing him, Dou Dexuan laughed and scolded: "You have been tossing around for a long time, but in the end it is the old man who suffers. His Majesty issued an edict ordering the Ministry of Households to plan money and food, and then schools in all places will be planned, and the government will subsidize them. In this way, the children of the common people only need to With some money and food, you can study...it costs less, but you can get ahead, who wouldn't want it?"
Jia Pingan sat down and asked, "What do you think of this move?"
Dou Dexuan said solemnly: "It is a great achievement for the benefit of the country and the people for generations to come."
"But there is too little money and food."
Dou Dexuan did not shy away from saying this, "Your Majesty forced me, but I have a bottom line here. I know exactly how much money the Ministry of Household can withdraw every year. No matter how much...it really is gone."
"There will be."
Jia Pingan said firmly.
Dou Dexuan smiled and said: "You are still hoping for the silver mountain of the Japanese country? By the way, Tang Xu and others have been there for a long time, should there be news?"
"Not so fast!"
Sea sailing these days depends on the weather and wind direction. Even if the sharp-bottomed boat was changed, according to Jia Pingan's calculations, Tang Xu and the others were at most on their way back.
Did you discover a silver mountain...
Jia Pingan thinks there is no problem.
…
"Your Majesty issued an edict today, and no one objected to it." Lu Shunyi looked a little depressed, "The Ministry of Households allocates money and food, and orders all places to prepare schools, and the government subsidizes the children of ordinary people to study."
Wang Sheng's face flushed, "It's okay, our family is very knowledgeable, and those common people's children can't shake our status... Could they still compete with our children for the places in the imperial examination?"
Li Jingdu sneered, "Of course not."
…
"President Ren, I've been hit hard these past two days, so I'll take two days off."
Ren Yaxiang was very happy, but before his joy dissipated, he was beaten down.
"Two days?"
The Ministry of War has a lot going on recently, and he and Wu Kui have already been battered.
Wu Kui winked while coughing dryly.
Absolutely no!
Just as Ren Yaxiang wanted to complain, Jia Pingan sighed: "In the past two days, those people not only suppressed me from the officialdom, but also attacked me from all directions. The business of Jia's family has been extremely dismal these two days, and those businessmen who cooperated with me have left one after another. ..."
Wu Kui looked at Ren Yaxiang eagerly...
Jia Pingan left the Ministry of War, and then went to various business inspections.
The tea house is complaining.
"Although their fried tea is not as good as ours, it can't stand to be cheaper! Many merchants who bought goods from us have stayed away, and now there is a lot of tea in the warehouse... hey!"
"Not in a hurry!"
Then I went to Chang'an Canteen.
Ji Chengnan went out to meet him, bragging about his achievements. In a word, thanks to the numerous measures he took in time, the attack on Jia's family did not come to Chang'an cafeteria.
Jia Pingan walked around and asked, "Are there a lot fewer powerful customers?"
Ji Chengnan said with a dry smile, "Yes."
"Food is the most important thing for the people. Chang'an canteen has the best food and drink in Chang'an... Can those who don't come to Chang'an canteen remember their names?"
"Remember some."
"Remember, from today onwards, Chang'an Canteen refuses these people to come in and eat."
Ji Chengnan was stunned, "Lang Jun, this is a business..."
"You have to be happy to make money!"
Jia Pingan left the Chang'an cafeteria, and immediately went to the winery.
"Nowadays there is a lot of high-quality wine, and some people have soaked medicinal materials, saying that it is a great tonic. In the past two days, many merchants have said that they will not buy from us."
"Good job!"
Jia Ping'an ordered: "Let the word out, there will be big changes in the business under the Jia family tomorrow, but any capable merchants, who are willing to cooperate with the Jia family, come to the Chang'an cafeteria tomorrow morning to discuss."
He returned home, Wei Wushuang asked about the situation.
"Tomorrow."
Jia Ping'an got down on the ground, "My back is sore, Wushuang, please help me massage."
Wei Wushuang was curious, "Husband, you haven't reached the age where your back is sore, have you?"
"My waist is very good!" The man can recognize everything, but he can't admit that his waist is bad. "The boss had to climb a tree with me before, so I flashed it."
Wei Wushuang knelt by the bed, pressed down with the strength of his upper body, and muttered while pressing, "Da Lang is not young anymore, climbing a tree is a bit stubborn..."
"Which child didn't like climbing trees when they were young? Children like it, just protect it, let them have a happy childhood, and they won't regret it when they grow up."
"You can read!" Wei Wushuang added some strength, and Jia Pingan gasped, "That's it, hey..."
He sighed, the muscles in his waist tensed suddenly, and then relaxed.
"Reading is reading, and now it is laying the foundation. There is no need for children to soak in knowledge all day long. Children at this age have to understand the world, including climbing trees...so don't interfere too much."
Climbing a tree is also education? Wei Wushuang froze for a moment, "I haven't read much, my husband is a great Confucian..."
"Don't, I don't teach Confucianism."
"Then... Daxin?"
"Are you trying to annoy me on purpose?"
Jia Ping'an raised his head, and Wei Wushuang pressed harder.
"Aww!"
Jia Ping'an howled miserably, "You mother-in-law took the opportunity to kill you..."
After the massage, Jia Pingan lay on his stomach like a dead dog, feeling relaxed all over.
"Aye!"
Doudou came, and while climbing up, he asked, "Aye, what's wrong with you?"
"waist!"
"Then I'll step on it for you."
"good!"
Little padded jacket!
Jia Ping'an was very pleased.
DouDou stepped on Jia Pingan's back, and suddenly jumped up.
"Ouch! Get down! Come down!"
After some torture, Jia Pingan suddenly found that his back was no longer sore, and he walked to the gate without panting...
Qian Er came to Jia's house.
"The princess said but it's up to the lord to make the decision."
Xincheng also sent someone over, "The princess said it's up to Duke Jia to decide."
Followed by a few old handsome.
"Just kill the brutes."
Simple and rude, but it is the meaning of support.
…
A group of businessmen are drinking in Pingkangfang.
"He can't live without us."
"That is, those sales are under our control. If we are willing to push other people's tea and drinks, what can he do with Jia Pingan?"
"We monopolize the market, he can only bow to us."
A group of businessmen smiled reservedly.
