After a long time, Ji An finally raised his head and said to Liu Che: "As your Majesty said, it may be so, but... the public opinion of scholars and the opinions of the people in the world may be a little difficult to convince..."
Liu Che laughed when he heard this.
Scholarly public opinion? Public opinion in the world?
what is that?
For the king, the so-called public opinion and discussion can actually be manipulated.
Not to mention now, even in two thousand years, you turn on the TV or log on to the web.
Do you think what you saw is true?
Do you think what you have learned are all facts?
Do not make jokes!
What the ruling class and capitalist elites are best at is deception!
Tell a good and touching story, for example, the policy is good and the government provides care for the elderly...
Or maybe the salt monopoly is not good and the market should make the decision...
The public's reaction is often slow.
By the time everyone reacts, it's already a dead end and there's nothing they can do to save it.
As for now, all the emperors of the Liu family have a common talent of being able to fool people!
Not to mention making craftsmen officials.
Liu Che now believed in himself that as long as he was given time to arrange and deploy, even if the eunuchs came out and were listed as nine ministers, there would probably be a certain possibility of success.
Politics is nothing more than talking and telling stories!
What's more, the craftsmen are not weaklings without allies who are pushed to the ground and rubbed at will by the scholar-bureaucrats!
The Mohists and farmers will definitely support it.
In addition, some other factions that are not mainstream but have great influence will probably support it.
With Liu Che's support, basically, this matter will be resolved within three to five days.
If it were someone else, Liu Che wouldn't bother to talk nonsense with him.
But Ji An is different.
Ji An was the minister, Liu Che's secretary and director of the general office.
At the same time, it is also an alternative for the three public servants in the future.
It is a key cultivation and training object.
Therefore, Liu Che patiently said to Ji An: "Scholar public opinion is important, but public opinion will change..."
"Besides, things have priorities..."
"Just wait, sir, and let's watch a good show!" A smile overflowed from the corner of Liu Che's mouth.
Scholar-officials have always been Liu Che's favorite opponents.
There is no other reason, because China’s scholar-bureaucrats are somewhat similar to petty bourgeoisie.
He always likes to complain without any reason, and prefers to regard himself as the future and savior of the country and nation.
Although in fact, in fact, this country and nation, with or without them, really has little impact.
Moreover, a group of scholar-bureaucrats who sit high in temples or in government offices all day long are actually far less powerful than they imagine.
It’s not like the Han Dynasty never had a Qiangfu, Youyou or even a pavilion chief directly overthrow the county magistrate.
It has happened countless times that the county guard who parachuted in was treated as a clay Buddha by the county commander and the county lieutenant.
Like Zhang Tang and Ning Cheng, they are famous in history for being able to turn their immediate superiors into subordinates.
Moreover, like the petty bourgeoisie, the scholar-bureaucrats are actually very weak.
Compared with bureaucrats and military aristocrats, scholar-bureaucrats are like pure and lovely loli...
Not to mention falling down with a push, as long as the emperor exerts some strength, they will always fall down.
Not to mention, the current scholar-bureaucrat class is actually not a whole at all, a group with common interests and demands.
They divided each other and attacked each other.
Even within the same faction, everyone is almost at odds with each other.
Under such circumstances, in fact, even Confucians would abstain from voting on this matter at most.
Because now, no one can afford to offend Liu Che!
Ji An felt that if such a big news was made before the Shiquge meeting was held, public opinion would get out of control.
but……
He was wrong.
And it’s totally wrong!
It is precisely because the Shiquge meeting is imminent that the public opinion and ideological circles will not jump out to confront Liu Chegang.
because……
………………………………
"We have finally come this far..." In the Zhangwuhou Mansion in Qili, Dou Guangguo, the Zhangwuhou who has been gradually entering the final stage of his life and has been recuperating at home, called his nephew Dou Pengzu to his side and said:
"I'm afraid I have been waiting for this day for a long time!"
Even before the emperor ascended the throne, Dou Guangguo already knew that the crown prince of the Han Dynasty would definitely make big news after he ascended the throne.
And judging from his attitude towards the Mohist family and the things he has done, this big news must be related to Baigong!
Therefore, Dou Guangguo is not surprised at all.
On the other hand, his nephew Dou Pengzu was very nervous. He asked cautiously: "Uncle, your Majesty wants to establish the officials of Luban in the county. I am afraid that public opinion will be uproar. Do you want to do something?"
Dou's maternal relatives have become worse than before in recent years.
In particular, Dou Ying's resignation and fall from favor caused this family, which once influenced the entire Han Dynasty, to have only one Dou Pengzu supporting the scene.
If Dou Guangguohui hadn't had the insight to marry his granddaughter to Ji An, I'm afraid that now, the Dou family's relatives would be faced with the embarrassment of having no heirs.
Therefore, Dou has been adjusting his strategy over the years.
Many descendants and retainers from the side branch went to Andong and South Vietnam to do business.
There are even people who have made it to Southwest Yi!
And such adjustments are enough to ensure that even if Yan Jia is unfortunately defeated in the East Palace in the future, the Dou family's wealth can still be sustained.
Not only the Dou family is like this, Bo family relatives have also been doing similar things in recent years.
Anyway, now, both Bo and Dou families have reached a consensus.
In the future world, the emperor can do whatever he likes.
They will never stand up and be an eyesore!
It’s better to be more well-behaved and sensible!
Otherwise, the Bo and Dou family are dancing too much now, and once Yan Jia from the East Palace comes to the future, it will be over!
Liu is the smallest and narrow-minded emperor.
Offending an emperor of the Liu family is equivalent to having your name and family listed in the Liu family's little black book for at least three generations!
Zhi Fanghou Yong Chi is a living example!
No one would want to be on Liu's blacklist.
This is especially true for relatives and families!
Therefore, over the years, Bo Dou's relatives have restrained their nephews and taught them strictly. If any cheaters appear, they will first deal with them internally, either by sending them to the south or rushing them to Anton.
In short, don’t cause trouble to the emperor!
For this reason, the Dou family even voluntarily gave up on Dou Ying!
Thinking of Dou Ying, Dou Guangguo also sighed.
That was the talented Dou family he had watched grow up!
He was not the only one who devoted his heart and soul to Dou Ying.
But……
Compared with Dou Ying, Dou Pengzu, who has always been considered to be "independent", "moderate" and even "cannot be entrusted with big things", has always been stable. In the past two years, he has even replaced Dou Ying's position and become the Dou family.
The focus of the family's resources.
Looking at Dou Pengzu's appearance, Dou Guangguo waved his hand and said, "Please don't interfere in this matter..."
At this juncture, my wife suddenly jumped out and said that no matter how she expressed her position, it was wrong!
It is even possible to turn into a taunting mt!
I have to be fucked ten thousand times!
Of course, the Dou family cannot do nothing.
Dou Guangguo took out a greeting card from his arms, handed it to Dou Pengzu, and said, "Go and give it to Mr. Huang for me. Please come over and have tea with me!"
Now, everyone within the Huang-Lao sect, including the heretical Lao-Zhuang sect, loves drinking tea.
There was even a bored guy who wrote a book called "Tea Ceremony" to teach people how to drink tea, and elevated tea drinking to a philosophical level.
And the person Dou Guangguo wants to call Mr. naturally has a lot of background.
This person is Huang Sheng, a famous figure in the Huang Lao Sect who has repeatedly appeared in history books and served as a backdrop for various events.
He once pointed out a clear path to Zhang Shizhi when he was the late emperor, and he also debated with Yuan Gusheng in Shanglin Garden about the old and new issues of hats and the significance of Tang Wu Dingge.
In short, this is the giant of the Huang Lao School in Guanzhong.
He has high popularity among the Huanglao sect!
"Go and ask the doctor Shi Gong to come over for me..." Dou Guangguo said again.
Shi Fen, the senior official, was a veteran of the Five Dynasties. His status was among the scholars and there is no need to elaborate.
And Dou Guangguo knew that as long as these two people were dealt with, he didn't know about the other messy schools of thought.
But at least Guan Zhongshi and the scholar-bureaucrats will calm down.
………………………………
At this time, in the markets of Chang'an, rumors had spread all over the streets that Liu Che wanted to set up Luban officials in the county and use craftsmen as officials.
The gossips all had their eyes widened, ready to watch the show.
As for the neighborhood inside and outside, it turned into a huge battlefield because of this incident.
Scholars from all over the world who held various views, because of the education and three views they received, started to attack and debate each other.
From time to time, some people become angry because they fail to argue, and turn a literary fight into a physical fight.
The officials and government servants in Chang'an were suddenly very busy.
In less than three hours, Tingwei and Zhijinwu's prisons were already filled with people who had been arrested for fighting or injuring others.
There are all kinds of people.
Sometimes, disciples of Confucianism and Legalism Huang Lao Mo even appeared in a prison at the same time.
Naturally, even after night falls, Chang'an City is still amidst the noise.
In front of various government offices, there was a lot of traffic, and countless celebrities and big shots lined up to save their disciples and disciples from the yamen. It would be impossible to save them. If the disciples and disciples fought bravely for the truth and heresy, but the master did not listen.
If we don’t ask, if things go on like this, then what’s the point?
Gongsun Hong walked out of the Yamen, followed by several of his junior brothers.
These junior brothers are all suffering from bruises and swollen faces at this moment.
There is no way, their opponents are the famous disciples of the Yanshi Sect in the land of Yanzhao!
Swordsmen from Yan and Zhao have been famous all over the world since ancient times.
Especially after the swordsmen of Yanzhao drank alcohol, their fighting power was even more powerful.
Not to mention his junior brothers, these scholars from the warm south.
Even the heroes in the north would not easily dare to provoke a scholar-official from Yan and Zhao.
Because that means disaster, terrible disaster.
"Let's go..." Gongsun Hong said in a low voice to his junior brothers.
This is the seventh time today that he has come to the Yamen to receive people.
And the information exposed in it made him worried.
Gongyang School seems to have encountered a sniper attack!
Xunzi School, Guliang School, Han Shi School and Zajia School all seem to be targeting Gongyang intentionally or unintentionally.
This is not good news.
Therefore, Gongsun Hong hurriedly took his junior brothers back to the teacher's residence, and then immediately went to see Hu Wusheng.
"Teacher...it seems that someone is working together to target me, Gongyang!" Gongsun Hong said as soon as they met: "Except for the schools that have not yet arrived in Chang'an, other factions are secretly making trouble for me, Gongyang..."
Hu Wusheng laughed after hearing this.
It’s okay to be embarrassed!
The Gongyang faction has indeed developed a bit too rapidly in recent years.
It is natural that a big tree attracts the wind.
But, it doesn’t matter!
In contrast, Hu Wusheng was more concerned about the public opinion trends in Chang'an City during the past day.
The emperor wants to use craftsmen as officials?
In the past, if there was no need for mobilization, there would be a lot of great scholars crying for their fathers and calling for their mothers.
This kind of thing that is degrading to politeness and lowers the standards of scholar-bureaucrats is disgusting to death just thinking about it, let alone making it a reality.
However, the situation now is very subtle.
All schools of thought have exposed their own behinds on this matter.
The situation is somewhat unexpected.
Many people just used this incident to express their attitude, and then changed the subject and turned into slandering and attacking their competitors.
The trolls were drooling and boiling for most of the day.
As a result, no one, not even a slightly influential person, stood up and firmly opposed the use of craftsmen as officials.
At most, it’s just some small shrimps…
This is what's really wrong.
"Your Majesty, this is a wonderful move..." Hu Wusheng said with emotion: "As expected of... a descendant of Taizong..."
Hu Wusheng once served as an official for a period of time during the reign of Emperor Taizong, and then he discovered that the emperor was too difficult to fool... so he had to go home to teach and educate people...
Now this one can only be said to be better than his predecessor!
"What kind of censor Zhongcheng refuted it?"
"This is a Chi You play..."
I think back then, Taizong relied on his superb acting skills to deceive and fool many people.
Fortunately, fortunately...
Everyone has had the experience of being fooled and played by Taizong. We are no longer the simple and loyal people who were played with in applause without knowing it.
In Hu Wusheng's eyes, the truth of this matter is now obvious.
Censor Zhongcheng refutes?
Just kidding!
This is clearly the play performed by Jinshang and Yushi Zhongcheng for all the scholars to see.
The purpose is probably to distinguish between ‘faithful and traitorous’.
Think again about today's weird atmosphere and confusing scene.
There are a lot of smart people!
It seems that everyone has developed a certain resistance and immunity to Liu's abominable acting skills, and will no longer be fooled by others...
fair enough!
Hu Wusheng took out a thin booklet from his arms, handed it to Gongsun Hong, and said: "Tomorrow you will enter the palace and present this book to your majesty. Please correct me..."
After saying this, Hu Wusheng suddenly felt so ashamed.
It was as if I had washed myself clean, then wrapped myself in silk cloth, carried it to the emperor, and said shyly: "I will serve your majesty and sleep in peace..."
What a shame!
but……
In today’s world, the competition is to see who is more ungrateful! (To be continued.)
