Why did He offer a jade

Author: Dongfang Hong Bus

The emperor's hand, what kind of hand is that?

That is the hand that lifts the red pen and covers the jade seal, and the hand that points the country. How can it "grinse" the face of the old and thick-skinned person?

That's so kind to him!

Zheng Chunqiu was stunned: Does the emperor slap himself means that he is very important in the emperor's heart?

Who did the emperor slap? No? Even if there is, it can only be the princes! Then the emperor is not to him...

Thinking of this, I almost got overjoyed, but I heard Eunuch Li say quietly: "What can I do with your Ministry of Works?

Did you assign her to do something wrong? Or did you give her some explanation? Even her salary was paid by the Ministry of Revenue. What does it have to do with you?"

Zheng Chunqiu wanted to blame Chu Qing, saying that Chu Qing did not hand over her "conscienceless cannon" and drawings, and Eunuch Li couldn't even look at her.

There is a reason why Eunuch Li said this, because the question of whether his inventions and creations should be handed over to the court has continued from last year to this year.

Although it is not an urgent and important issue, it will still be discussed by court officials from time to time.

Daxuan is the same as Chu Qing's ancient practices. Although there is no concept of the rule of law in the rule of law, it can monetize the research results of inventions.

For example, if someone invents a farm tool, he can get it to the county government for money.

Usually, the process of "monetization" is done very elegantly, such as "dedication".

Suppose a person invents a farm tool and presents it to the county government. After the trial is organized by the magistrate, according to the test results, if the farm tool is easy to use, he will reward the person with some money as a reward.

Even if it is not easy to use, the magistrate or county magistrate will praise him and encourage his enthusiasm for invention and creation.

The same is true for officials. There are always some officials who do not follow the right path, who open up ways to get promoted and make money by "giving treasures" and "giving auspiciousness".

You can also not "dedicate", such as prescriptions, martial arts secrets, recipes or embroidery techniques, etc. As long as you can keep it, you will not give it out.

Because giving out can only get a one-time reward, but keeping it in your own home can pass it on from generation to generation, allowing all descendants to benefit.

Chu Qing was once run by the bastards in the court and forced her to "sell" the mining rights of the jade mine. At that time, she once said, "As long as you sell everything about yourself, I will definitely be unreserved."

This is also why the court has been discussing the remittance of inventions and creations.

Whether to surrender or not is not necessary to discuss whether the court dares to do this will be overthrown.

So what they really discussed was: how to get the people to take the initiative to hand over.

It is to be handed over, not to be cashed out.

In other words, how to make the people offer all the good things without giving them rewards.

If it can be done, then everything Chu Qing can't be saved.

They are even about to discuss specific methods, such as strengthening the idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor and patriotism.

Even a role model used to educate the people - Bian He.

Chu Qing also knew about the idea of ​​using a virtual character as a role model for Chu Qing to hand over all his assets, but he didn't care.

Because as long as the court officials can't do it, don't want her to do it.

Chu Qing had no good feelings for the character Bian He, because Chu Qing was punished by the teacher to stand and listen to the class for the sake of this person who was hard to say whether it existed or not.

This is the thing-

When I was in junior high school, I learned the classical Chinese article "He Shi Bi". When I asked questions freely, Chu Qing asked a question: Why did He Shi have to offer a jade?

This is a problem left over from learning "Returning the Jade to Zhao" in elementary school.

This question surprised the teacher. She thought that students should ask questions about the meaning of classical Chinese, but she did not expect that it was such a question that had nothing to do with the text.

But the teacher still gave the answer full of Confucianism - loyalty.

Chu Qing asked: Since King Li of Chu doesn't believe him, he will chop his feet, why don't he smash the stone to prove himself?

The teacher’s answer was still—loyalty, because this is a good thing, how can I give it to King Li of Chu if it is broken?

Chu Qing did not agree with the answer. She said at the time: "This person may not be true, so he is sincere!"

In that era, few people had doubts about the authenticity of Bian Heren, because the teaching idea of ​​this text itself was: loyalty is the most precious quality of being a human being.

Chu Qing's words made the teacher disgusted.

Then, Chu Qing expressed his opinion: "This piece of jade probably exists, but people may not be. Maybe it is just a fable character made up by Han Feizi because of his thoughts and opinions that they are not recognized and adopted by the king;

Even if this character really exists, then, if a piece of uncensored jade is offered three more, and if you are cut off, you will not stop. What is the point of doing this? Can't you not offer it?

Is it because of loyalty, for fame and fortune, or just to prove yourself?

If you are loyal, why should you offer uncensored jade?

If you are fame and fortune, you have to offer polished beautiful jade;

If you are afraid that you are just a woodcutter and cannot protect this good thing, it is impossible. Who can tell that a piece of uncensored jade?

If I say that it was to prove myself, I threw it on the spot and exposed the beautiful jade inside?"

During the early years of Chu Qing's junior high school, he was at the age of "second-middle school disease", and the unique self-awareness of adolescent children was clearly manifested.

Therefore, after the teacher gave the teacher "King Wen of Chu strongly rewarded He and named the jade after it, He did not take it seriously. How could he question it?", Chu Qing was punished to stand and listen to the class - his thoughts were incorrect!

In fact, until today, Chu Qing's thoughts have not been corrected because she felt that He did not accept the reward, because he was discouraged and had no feet. Can he buy it back if he gave it money?

Otherwise, how could Li Bai's ironic metaphor be "When you carry jade into Chu, you will doubt what you have heard in ancient times; if you finally see good jade, you will see you for nothing."

But these views only existed in Chu Qing's heart and did not have any effect on the court officials' claims.

Especially Zheng Chunqiu, he has been making benefits from Chu Qing, and he has already made good use of it. How can he change his mind as expected?

Therefore, from Zheng Chunqiu's perspective, this accident is not completely blamed, because that is what he said in his heart.

That's what he thinks.

Chu Qing knew that these people thought so, so he resigned early, making it easier for them to continue to suck blood from themselves.

So there was a day when this topic was not mentioned in the court.

Chu Qing resigned from his official position, and his meaning was very clear - you have given you what you want, and we will not be the official position anymore. What else do you want? Tell me this lord and listen to it?

That's why Eunuch Li couldn't take a look at it - you completely forced Chu Qing to the point of being too anxious, how can the emperor take advantage of it in the future?

"Then...then..." Zheng Chunqiu was stuttering, not caring about pretending to be crazy: "Master, please let Chu Qing hand over her cannon and thunder!" Zheng Chunqiu shouted.

Zheng Chunqiu thought that Chu Qing resigned and could not ask for her things directly, so the emperor could do it, right?

As long as you can get the real thing, you can always copy it one-to-one.

The emperor was also thinking about Chu Qing at this time. What he was thinking was that it would be great if Chu Qing's drawings were available. The thing Xu Nianping drew was not very reliable.

According to the eunuch who came back to report the news, the artillery made by the Ministry of Works is indeed similar to the ones drawn on Xu Nianping's picture, but the bottom is more beautiful.

The conclusion the emperor came to see the drawing was also a giant firecracker, so the drawings should be insufficiently detailed.
