"This martial arts is unique!"
The main hall was filled with Zhu Yunxi's sonorous voice echoing.
The officials in the palace were so shocked by Zhu Yunxi's words that they had not yet recovered.
All the things the emperor's grandson said were too horrifying and too shocking to people's minds. They also found a different approach, but after careful consideration, they are not completely unreasonable.
"The students of martial arts are not only the sons of nobles, but also officers with meritorious service in the army. They also have to select scholars from all over the country, government, Tao, and county schools who are aspiring to achieve fame immediately."
Zhu Yunxi stood beside the throne, holding the dragon head with claws on the throne in one hand, and continued to say loudly, "You are opposed to martial arts, but you are opposed to any way to select scholars except the imperial examination."
"The country's selection of materials should be eclectic. Only when a hundred flowers bloom can the world be the most beautiful. How can we give up eating because of choking?"
His Highness and his ministers were completely silent, all thinking secretly about what the Emperor Taisun meant by his words.
Zhu Yunxi knew in his heart that the martial arts academy would encounter great resistance and would even be criticized by scholars all over the world. But he never thought about becoming a so-called virtuous and benevolent emperor who was good at listening to the opinions of his ministers.
For the sake of the world, and for the martial spirit of the Han family, what would it matter if he, Zhu Yunxi, became a tyrant like the old man who was reviled by scholars for hundreds of years?
Men can read the teachings of sages and settle down in life. But men should ride horses and whips to gallop thousands of miles.
Remember https://m in one second.
Generations of scholars have dreamed of turning China into a country full of moral principles to carry forward the Tao. Nuo Da's empire has turned into study rooms full of the sound of reading. Men all over the world have entered the study room and read like puppets.
Thousands of years of theory have imagined that books have their own beauty, like jade, and books have their own golden houses.
For these reasons, generations of men have lost the passion in their bones.
But when the enemy's iron hooves trample the land, where in this huge world can there be a desk where I can study with peace of mind?
"Martial arts matters!" Zhu Yunxi said categorically, "It is a major military and national matter. Guzi will convene the governor's office of the five armies, and all distinguished military ministers will discuss it. Officials are not allowed to make arbitrary decisions without authorization." After saying this, he waved his sleeves and turned around to hide in the back hall.
.
"temple............"
Fang Xiaoru wanted to say more, but his sleeve was suddenly pulled by someone.
Turning around, he saw Liu Sanwu, the Privy Councilor, shaking his head silently at him, his eyes full of admonishment.
The court meeting in the East Palace dispersed, and the ministers left the palace in twos and threes.
Liu Sanwu and Fang Xiaoru walked at the end, both of them looking worried. And Liu Sanwu, because his son-in-law was in prison, was even more absent-minded.
"Xueshi Liu!" Fang Xiaoru said first, "Why don't you let the students speak! The emperor's grandson is wrong, and I and other ministers should remonstrate with death! Could it be that just by looking at the emperor's grandson like this, we are doing something wrong?"
"Xizhi (characterized by Fang Xiaoru)." Liu Sanwu sighed slightly, "The emperor's grandson is already older, and he is no longer the young boy he was in the school! As a minister, it is your duty to advise the monarch. But as a minister, you must assist and fulfill the emperor's needs.
The name!"
Fang Xiaoru was speechless.
Yes, the emperor's grandson is old. He is old enough to have his own opinions, big enough to have the qualifications of a ruler, and big enough not to allow his ministers to offend his decision-making.
The emperor's grandson is no longer the young bird he was before. He has full wings and is ready to fly high.
"When we, the scholars, taught His Highness earlier, we all thought that Your Highness would be a Confucian scholar and the most perfect king." Liu Sanwu suddenly smiled and shook his head and said, "But now it seems that we were all wrong. The tiger chicks are growing longer and roaring.
In the mountains and forests, all beasts surrender."
"The grandson of the emperor may seem gentle, but in fact his temper is exactly the same as that of the old emperor. But his ambition far exceeds that of the emperor."
Fang Xiaoru was silent for a long time and said slowly, "Emperor Grandson, are you going to be Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty in the future?"
"Ha!" Liu Sanwu smiled slightly, "Emperor Taizong, I'm afraid I haven't put him in the eyes of the emperor's grandson. Our crown prince is different from all the kings in the past dynasties."
Afterwards, the two of them were speechless again.
The two of them walked forward in silence, and finally walked out of Zuo'anmen, only to see Wang Shai, the eunuch in charge of the East Palace, already waiting there.
"I have met these two adults!" At this time, the palace eunuchs had no status at all. Even the people around the emperor's grandson had to treat these ministers with courtesy.
"What's the matter?" Liu Sanwu asked with a frown.
"His Royal Highness ordered to see Scholar Liu!" Wang smiled mockingly.
"good!"
Liu Sanwu nodded. He had probably guessed why the emperor's grandson wanted to see him alone after the court meeting.
Moreover, the emperor's grandson did not ask him to stay in front of the ministers, but asked him to wait for him here, which saved him enough face.
"Thank you, father-in-law, please lead the way!"
~~
Behind the East Palace, there is a small garden, with a sparkling lake in the center of the garden.
Liu Sanwu followed Wang Shai into the garden, and saw in the corridor, the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunxi was slowly drawing a bow and arrow, aiming at the target ten steps away.
Next to him, Fu Rang, the commander of the personal guards, was giving careful instructions.
"Your Highness, the target is not very far. You don't have to draw the bow fully, and you don't have to hold it tightly. When you draw the bow, you don't use the strength of your arms, but the strength of your back."
But Zhu Yunxi didn't seem to listen. The bow string was fully drawn and made a squeaking sound.
With a whooshing sound, the arrow shot out like a meteor, but directly missed the target and disappeared into the grass.
Zhu Yunxi looked embarrassed, "I can't shoot this bow and arrow accurately!" As he said that, he threw away the bow and arrow in his hand and said, "Go to the cannon casting place tomorrow and get two muskets for Gu."
In the Battle of Goryeo that day, the firearms army shone brightly. Zhu Yunxi had already ordered the craftsmen affiliated with the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion under the Ministry of War to explore the casting of firecrackers that were more powerful, easier to carry, and had a longer range.
"Your Highness, the sound of the firecrackers is like thunder, and it carries open flames. The palace..."
Fu Rang was a little hesitant. There shouldn't be those sharp weapons in the palace. If something happened, no one could afford it.
"What are you afraid of? You can go to the Goryeo battlefield, but how can you break the rules by playing with a few fire guns?" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile, "If you want to make men in the world martial arts, you have to start with yourself."
"I obey the decree!" Fu Rang said.
At this time, Zhu Yunxi turned around and saw Liu Sanwu who had already arrived. He waved his hand and the palace guards beside him immediately retreated.
"Show your seat to Scholar Liu!" Zhu Yunxi said after sitting down, "Here's some hot tea!"
"Old minister, thank you, Your Highness!"
"Do you know why I asked you to come back?" Zhu Yunxi said carefully blowing the tea leaves in the bowl.
"I think it's probably because Zhao Mian got the stolen goods!" Liu Sanwu leaned forward and said, "I thanked His Highness for returning the favor of protecting this old minister. I feel ashamed!"
Zhu Yunxi smiled and looked at his gray hair, "After all, you are an old minister of the country, and you are Gu's teacher after all. If you are asked to stay in front of all the ministers, there will definitely be unfavorable rumors about you. Moreover, there are some words that you and I will say.
Lord and minister, it is better to talk behind closed doors!"
Liu Sanwu solemnly said, "Your Majesty, I am grateful for your kindness."
"What do you think about Zhao Mian's matter?" Zhu Yunxi put down his tea bowl and asked.
Liu Sanwu's old face was tangled for a moment, "That bastard should be punished according to the national law!" As he said that, he knelt down seriously, "I will punish Zhao Mian according to the national law. I am Zhao Mian's father-in-law, and I am jointly and severally responsible. I am too old to be reused.
Please resign and return home!"
Zhu Yunxi looked at him, said nothing, and slowly uttered a sentence, "Do you really think so in your heart?"
"Old minister, you tell the truth!" Liu Sanwu kowtowed.
"Confused!" Zhu Yunxi snorted and ordered, "Wang Shame, help Scholar Liu up!"
Then, Zhu Yunxi spoke again, "You are a great scholar of the current dynasty, a scholar, and an orphan in the East Palace. There is something wrong with your family. You don't want to solve it, so you just want to leave?"
"Your Highness, I have been unable to sleep at night these past few days. The crime that Zhao Mian committed is unforgivable. Your Majesty and Your Highness will not hold me accountable for my lack of discipline. How can I still be in a high position if I am already crying with gratitude?"
"If it really follows the law of the country, Zhao Mian should be skinned and stuffed with grass, all the men in the family should be executed, and the women should be thrown into the Jiaofang Division and become official prostitutes!"
After the words fell, Liu Sanwu's head buzzed and he almost fell down. He was already seventy years old. If he really saw his daughter, grandson and others like this, he probably wouldn't live for a few more days.
"However, Grandpa Huang and Gu, after all, still have some leeway for your sake!" Zhu Yunxi continued, "Zhao Mian is Gu Qin's minister, and you are Gu's teacher. Gu must protect you to some extent.
.Zhao Mian was imprisoned, but he was not imprisoned by Jinyiwei, nor did he arrest his wife and daughter. Can you understand Gu Gu's intention?"
"Old minister!" Liu Sanwu said with an moved expression, "I don't know how to repay His Highness for your great kindness!"
The emperor's grandson said this, which means that there is still hope for Zhao Mian's wife and daughter.
"Grandpa Huang has asked the Jin Yiwei to arrest people on the rivers in Henan. The emperor does not need to arrest people and bring them back to Beijing. After they are found out, they will be punished on the spot. This is also Grandpa Huang's tolerance for you. He wants this matter to be over as soon as possible!"
"Zhao Mian!" Zhu Yunxi sighed, "hanging, confiscating the family property, and sending the son to Yunnan as a tenant with the frontier army. As for his wife and daughter, for your sake, you can take him home and raise him!"
"Your Highness!" Liu Sanwu knelt down again and choked out, "I am so ashamed of myself!"
No one is a saint, who wants to see his juniors die miserably?
The old emperor's methods against corrupt officials were the most ruthless in history, and he was never merciful.
Unexpectedly, he raised his hand for the sake of his decades-old minister. Of course, Liu Sanwu knew that in the final analysis, what the old prince valued was not his face, but the face of the emperor's grandson.
"You don't have to be like this!" Zhu Yunxi gave him a little help, "There is something that I have been hiding in my heart and I didn't ask you!"
"My lord, I am all ears!"
"When Grandpa Huang called you to discuss the establishment of the crown prince, why did you say you wanted to establish Zhu Yunwen?"
