A day in the world without food will lead to hunger, and a day without learning will lead to stupidity. Li Er's manic heart gradually calmed down, and he wanted to dig out his daily life notes to see his gains and losses. The emperor was not allowed to look at his own daily notes.
, this is a principle that historians have always adhered to.
Li Er said: "I won't add or subtract a word, I won't criticize or belittle, I just want to look at my past words and deeds, know myself clearly, and learn from past mistakes and avoid future ones so that there will be no more omissions in government affairs."
The purpose is clear and the reasons are sufficient, but the current historian who records the emperor's notes on daily life is Yan Shigu of the Yan family. He scorned the emperor's assurance. No matter how the emperor explained his purpose of reading notes on daily life, he always said:
"There is no precedent for this in Yan's family motto."
Furious, Li Er ordered his men to tie Yan Shigu up, but he couldn't find where the living notes were. The servant interrogated Yan Shigu where the living notes were. Yan Shigu replied: "I didn't have dinner last night, so I took the living notes as dinner."
It’s all gone, but it’s still in the belly now and requires a caesarean section to see it.”
During the Spring and Autumn Period, Cui Zhu killed three historians who recorded that he had killed Duke Qi Zhuang, but still could not change the history books. Although Li Er was furious, he was not as thick-skinned as Cui Zhu, so he had no choice but to release Yan Shigu. In fact
It won't work if you don't let him go, because Yan Shigu's brother Yan Shilu is already standing outside the palace gate. Once his brother is beheaded by the emperor, he will immediately enter the palace and continue to be the historian. This position is hereditary to the Yan family and was written by others.
Notes on daily life can only be unofficial history, and only what they write will be recognized by the world. Li Er knew without thinking that if Yan Shigu died, Yan Shilu would definitely not let him read notes on daily life.
I didn't eat the mutton, but I got a fishy smell all over my body. My lifestyle must not be too good-looking, otherwise the Yan family wouldn't be so willing to defend it with their lives. They had a bad reputation before, and now there is an incident of attacking the historian. I guess it will be written down.
It's even more unbearable.
The emperor, who had been hit hard these days, could only rage in the palace. He had been suffering from wind disease, but now he was furious, and his old disease suddenly relapsed. Sun Simiao used an injection and was slightly better.
Yun Ye went into the palace to see Li Er carrying a big baggage on his back. He was startled by Li Er who was lying on the bed with a sick look on his face. He quickly asked Emperor Sun Simiao if his illness had improved and if his headache symptoms had been relieved.
Li Er lay on the bed and looked at the top of the tent and said weakly: "You don't have to worry about it. It seems that you are satisfied with making me angry to death. Now what is wrong with each of you, and you no longer speak out about my faults like before.
, I want to take a look at my daily life and correct the gains and losses. I don’t want to change the content. As long as it is something I do, I accept it.
I am a hero who will never be embarrassed in this matter, so why can't you trust me?"
Sun Simiao withdrew after diagnosing the pulse. Everything that happened during the time when Changsun covered his face and cried seemed to prove that the emperor was no longer a qualified emperor. How could this convince the arrogant Li Er? As long as he knew his mistakes
There, Li Er thought that he was still the Khan who ruled the world.
"Why did your Majesty think of going to the Yan family to ask for the living notes? The people in their family are all stones, and they don't have oil and salt. It is bound to happen that you will be rejected by them. The academy originally planned to ask for your Majesty's living notes to be made into a collection of books.
, Wei Chen was spat on by Mr. Yan Zhitui, so there is no way to accomplish this."
Li Er raised his head with difficulty and looked at Yun Ye and said: "You are a person who refuses to admit defeat. Did you think of some way to get the living wage? Bring it quickly, I want to see."
"The Yan family doesn't know where they hid the living notes, but your majesty has a way to see his historical ministers, and he brought them to you."
Li Eryi sat up and saw Yun Ye put the big baggage on his back on the couch. After untying it, he found that they were all hand-written books bound by thread. When he opened one, he saw four round words written in calligraphy on the title page.
"Chronicles of Zhenguan" were written in large characters, and he looked at Yun Ye in confusion, waiting for him to explain.
"Your Majesty, the Zhenguan years were full of great events and wonderful events. The Yan family is not the only one who wants to record this period of history. The historians in the academy are also collecting and sorting out the events of the Zhenguan years and compiling them into a volume. Now they have written about the fourteenth year of Zhenguan.
In terms of the detailed historical data, the Yan family cannot compare with our Yushan Academy. No matter in terms of manpower and material resources, their family cannot compare at all. In addition to having less palace secrets in daily life than the Yan family, in terms of world affairs and human relations,
The scenery, geographical changes, promulgation of laws, and changes in government are far more detailed than those of the Yan family.
You see, the main author of this Chronicle of the Western Regions is Xuanzang. The Academy Historical Archives also visited Hou Junji, Ning Dachang, and the generals who went on the expedition to the Western Regions, as well as the generals and soldiers who accompanied them. They also interviewed no less than a hundred soldiers.
The Yan family does not have these things. The people who write the commercial tax department are the prime minister, the eldest grandson Pushe, Liu Mi, as well as the chief officials of the east and west cities of Chang'an, the heads of the tooth shops, large merchants, medium merchants, low-class merchants, etc.
Footnotes made by people, after reading this part, Your Majesty will have a clear understanding of commercial taxes. In short, whatever you want to see, whether it is government orders, laws, military orders, punishments and rewards, is all in "Zhenguan Chronicles"!
The reason why these things are in Weichen's place is because the academy needs Weichen to make up for the Nanyang chapter and the Liaodong chapter. As for the physics chapter in Qingque's place, which is obscure and difficult to understand, there is no need for Your Majesty to read it. A person's energy is limited and he cannot take care of it.
of."
Li Er was overjoyed. He opened the book and found that it was about a scene where he had a conversation with Jie Li Weihe. Of course, Li Er remembered it clearly. After reading a paragraph, he pointed to one of the passages and said to Yun Ye: "
Something is wrong here. There are only one hundred and fifty steps on the wooden bridge. How can there be three hundred steps? How can I talk to Jie Li when we are separated by three hundred steps? There are only one hundred and fifty steps, because even if there is a powerful crossbow bombardment from a hundred steps away
, they will also stop me without tongue. It will be dangerous if I get closer, and I can’t hear you clearly if I’m far away.”
Yun Ye immediately took the pen and ink, recorded Li Er's words, inserted it into the book page, and said: "Your Majesty, you can only read and excerpt these books, but you cannot print them because it involves copyright issues. You
I also know that the masters of Yushan Academy don’t care about money. As long as copyright is involved, there is no reason to explain, and they are much more difficult to deal with than the Yan family. "
Li Er nodded in agreement. Learning was something that could no longer be controlled by the law, not even if he was an emperor. But just after reading two pages, he felt dizzy and had to stop.
It was obviously high blood pressure, with red and swollen eyes and dilated blood vessels. Without good antihypertensive drugs, he could only suffer. Seeing that Li Er was really working hard, Yun Ye said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I have a local method that can quickly relieve your Majesty's pain."
The symptoms are just a little ugly. I wonder if Your Majesty would like to try it."
Li Er, who was covering his head, said quickly: "Hurry up, I have a splitting headache. No matter what method, I will pass this level first."
"Your Majesty's symptom is actually excessive blood energy. Since the energy and blood energy are too strong, just let some of it out, and supplement it with Daozhang Sun's herbal medicine. Your Majesty will definitely feel much more relaxed."
"How to vent?" Changsun and Li Er asked together.
"If there is too much blood, just let it go. Take blood from the ear and take it twice a day. It is harmless to His Majesty's body. The headache symptoms will be relieved immediately."
Without even thinking about it, Li Er asked Changsun to cut his ear with a knife. He was already suffering from the headache and had no patience at all. Li Er was used to fighting and knew that this method came from the battlefield and was quick and effective, although it would bleed.
, but it can save lives, which is the same as the wounded soldiers sawing off their injured legs and arms that cannot be saved.
Seeing that Changsun was hesitant and refused to take action, he said irritably: "This is a method used on the battlefield. When I was hit by an arrow, I burned the wound with a soldering iron. The pain is nothing, so hurry up."
Changsun was helpless. She was the only one who could do this. No one else had the guts to swing a small knife around Li Er's neck. He burned the knife on a candle, wiped it clean, and cut Li Er's earlobe ruthlessly.
A small cut was made, and it turned out to be high blood pressure. A cut on the earlobe caused bleeding.
Changsun followed Li Er's instructions and stabbed his ears on both sides. The two palace maids held up the golden cup tremblingly and drank the blood left behind until the blood line turned into blood drops, and then stopped dripping. Changsun and Yun Ye then
Breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Er rubbed his temples and said to his eldest grandson: "I feel a lot more relaxed indeed. My eyes are no longer swollen and my head is not so painful." Then he looked at the two golden cups in front of him, shook his head and said, "The wear and tear is still a bit big.
, The essence and blood of our ancestors cannot be discarded!" After saying that, he held the golden cup and drank his own blood.
Looking at Li Er's teeth stained red by blood, Yun Ye wanted to vomit again. After Li Er drank the blood, he rinsed his mouth and even swallowed the mouthwash, making sure not to waste any of it.
Changsun helped Li Er to the bed and saw that he was asleep with his eyes closed. Then he and Yun Ye walked out of the palace door. He said with some confusion: "Everything is so complicated, and there are so many threads. I can't sort it out in a short while."
clearly."
"Don't be embarrassed, my dearest lady. What I have sent you is the "Minutes of Zhenguan". Wei Shizhong is sorting out the "Supplement to Zhenguan". The book has three parts and sixteen volumes. It is a list of all the gains and losses in government affairs during the Zhenguan period. It has summaries, lessons, and
Various remedies will be sent to His Majesty for study tomorrow.
Prime Minister Du also compiled his accumulated experience on government affairs over the years into "Experiences of Zhenguan", which is currently being edited and is said to have no less than 600,000 words.
Because the Yan family refused His Majesty's reading of the daily life notes, they felt ashamed, so they prepared the "Yan Family Instructions" written by Mr. Yan Zhitui to be dedicated to Your Majesty. It clarified his family's views on education. It was a priceless treasure. Li Jing, Li Ji and others
The Art of War he co-authored has long surpassed the "Six Taoist Secrets" and "Six Military Mirrors". It is said that it can correct gains and losses, and is also prepared to be dedicated to His Majesty..."
The eldest grandson's eyebrows immediately stood up, and he said in a conspiratorial tone: "Why are you so generously donating books to His Majesty before he has recovered from his illness? Are you planning to humiliate His Majesty?"
