Chapter 1011 Influence on Imperial Power

"Talents?" Li Er said with a look of helplessness on his face, "The talents of the Tang Dynasty are all in the hands of those aristocratic families.

After all, the Tang Dynasty was established only a short time ago and has no foundation."

"Your Majesty, there is no need to belittle yourself." Li Xiaogong said, "In fact, there are many talents in the Tang Dynasty, but the imperial court does not know their existence."

"Yes, yes, Your Majesty, don't worry, we can just take another imperial examination after we go back.

If it really doesn't work, let's build more academies to train talents, train talents for the court, and provide opportunities for those children from poor families to study." Cheng Yaojin said.

Li Feng suddenly had a headache. Li Er just asked him to get money to open the academy. This was simply sucking the blood of those aristocratic families. It's strange that they were willing.

Li Er glanced at Li Feng and said, "Li Feng, why don't you say it's a waste? The court is short of talents now. Aren't you going to offer a strategy or something?"

Li Feng said: "Father-in-law, in fact, according to my master's idea, it is to build an academy.

Let children over seven years old and under ten years old go to school. As for why, it is actually very simple. Children at this stage do not have any labor force, but they learn things very quickly. It is the best time to go to school.

Therefore, I suggest building academies all over the country, and then building academies in villages, small towns, and cities with convenient transportation, and forcing them to study. As for the books used for studying, the imperial court will distribute them.

The content of the books that need to be learned will be taught by the teaching content of our school."

"Isn't it that the teaching content of the Civil and Military Academy has been spread?" Li Xiaogong said, "Wouldn't people from other countries also be able to learn?"

Li Feng smiled and said: "I never bothered to ban people from other countries from studying. What does it matter?"

"This is not about leaking all the secrets. This is not okay, Your Majesty, this is not okay, absolutely not okay." Cheng Yaojin said.

Li Er frowned slightly and asked, "Li Feng, don't you want to explain?"

Li Feng said: "It's very simple. If knowledge does not progress, it will only regress. If the imperial court thinks that knowledge is very important and cannot be known to people from other countries, then it can only be said that everyone only sees that knowledge.

No one can see what is behind that knowledge. Just like my master, their knowledge is powerful enough, right?

I dare say that the knowledge of my school is the best in the world, and everyone dares to say that it is second. However, under such circumstances, they are still tirelessly researching deeper secrets.

They actually have only one purpose in going to sea, and that is to confirm what they have always thought."

"What do you think?" Cheng Yaojin asked.

Li Feng said: "The land under our feet is actually round. The masters call it the earth. They want to run around the world. Starting from the Tang Dynasty, will they return to the Tang Dynasty in another direction?

Enshi said that after confirming this, they will begin to march into heaven."

"Haven't they already conquered the sky?" Cheng Yaojin said.

Li Er and Li Xiaogong looked at Cheng Yaojin, and Cheng Yaojin immediately said: "Hot air balloon, who has thought about hot air balloons before?"

Li Er rolled his eyes and said, "Do you think Li Feng's disciple is so superficial?"

Cheng Yaojin suddenly said in surprise: "Is there anything else besides hot air balloons?"

Li Feng nodded and said: "Yes, my master has researched a new aircraft, but they are all semi-finished products and have not been produced.

But my mentor said that the ultimate goal of the sect is to leave the earth and go to the moon."

"Heaven, does your master want to become a god?"

Li Feng shook his head and said: "Of course not, everyone in my school just wants to be a scientific expert, not a god.

They are all atheists. In their minds, the so-called gods are actually imagined by people when they are at a loss. The purpose is to comfort their hearts."

Li Er nodded and said: "No, the sky full of gods and Buddhas is also a political method. Li Feng, I want to know why your mentor was not born?"

"Because the imperial power does not allow it, their ideas may subvert the imperial power, and once they are born, they will suffer disaster." Li Feng said it without hesitation.

Li Er's face darkened and he said: "I should have guessed that no one in this world dares to let every common person own land, even I don't dare."

"Your Majesty." Cheng Yaojin and Li Xiaogong shouted at the same time.

They were worried that Li Er would be angry with Li Feng because of this. Li Feng was now related to the rise and fall of the entire Tang Dynasty, so nothing could happen to him. What's more, he had knowledge in his hands that no one could imagine.

Li Er raised his hand and said, "You don't need to say more."

Cheng Yaojin and Li Xiaogong swallowed their words at the same time.

"Li Feng, why were you born? Will it affect the imperial power?"

In response to Li Er's inquiry, Li Feng rolled his eyes and said, "Father-in-law, don't you still know why I was born?

As for whether it will affect the imperial power, it will be more or less. The most important thing is whether the person who is the emperor is wise.

If you are as wise as your father-in-law, then the imperial power will only become more and more stable.

But if someone is like Yang Guang, then the imperial power will slowly be lost and he will eventually become an emperor in name only."

"You want to say that the emperor will become a puppet?"

"No, the emperor is still the emperor. He represents the Tang Dynasty. Although he can enjoy everything the emperor has, he only has no right to command any army. To put it simply, he has no right to participate in political affairs." Li Feng said.

Li Er frowned and said: "The emperor has no rights, so who has the rights?"

"The ministers and people in the court no longer need to listen to the emperor's orders. They will use voting to determine whether the new policy is reasonable and whether it can be implemented."

"What do a group of common people know about political affairs?" Li Er said in a deep voice.

"Father-in-law, the people don't understand political affairs, but they know good and bad. But in order to avoid such things from happening, father-in-law can issue a decree that whenever there is a tyrant or a coward among the emperors.

The ministers and the common people can vote to change the emperor. I even think that this matter can be engraved on a stone tablet and placed at the entrance of government offices across the country." Li Feng said.

"Why should my throne be decided by them?" Li Er said solemnly.

Li Feng said: "So I thought of a second plan."

"What plan?" Li Er asked.

Li Feng said: "It is to hide all the knowledge that affects the imperial power and not disclose it to the public.

Moreover, I am now the consort, and I don’t want the imperial power to decline. Once the imperial power declines, I, the consort, will be of little use.”

Li Er then said with satisfaction: "I don't want any knowledge that threatens the imperial power to emerge."
