His Highness Long Lin didn't mention this matter, he had actually forgotten it long ago.
The example His Highness mentioned made him couldn't help but laugh for a moment.
Fang Pu, the three members of the Situ family, had already learned about the situation from his father.
The three of them were plotted by Situ Heng to follow his father on a mission to Persia. The transfer documents from the official department had already reached the hands of those three people.
In the past few days, the three of them have been making a lot of noise in the mansion, making so much noise that they can be heard clearly even standing next door.
The three people were cursing and had no scruples at all. If his father hadn't come forward, the three of them might have been able to tear down the Situ Mansion.
From this we can see how angry these three people became after learning about this.
Fortunately, under his father's intimidation, the three of them stopped. They must still be digesting the bad news these days.
In order to avoid these three people, Master Situ lived in the Ministry of Industry. The three of them had no choice but to go on an envoy trip.
But Fang Pu was a little surprised, how could His Highness Long Lin know about this?
As the saying goes, family scandals should not be publicized. Lord Situ would definitely not talk about these things, and his father would even be unlikely to mention them.
His Highness is actually able to know all these things. This His Highness is probably far more terrifying than he thought.
His father said that everyone in the Fang family must stand behind His Highness Long Lin, so this was very firm in his heart.
The reason for his rebuttal was that he was really doing it for the good of His Highness Long Lin. This matter was untouchable. Once he did it, it would have wide implications.
"Your Highness, these matters are all uncertain. I agree with His Highness's views, but I hope that Your Highness can maintain the current situation of the school."
Long Lin smiled. Fang Pu still insisted on his idea. There must be other reasons.
"Master Fang, why would the ministers reject such a thing? It seems that the high fees in the school are also the opinions of the ministers, right?"
Fang Pu nodded, accepting these words.
"Your Highness, scholars are noble. This is something that everyone in the world recognizes. Most people want to become scholars. This is certain."
"But in the Dragon Dynasty, there is no need for so many scholars. What the Dragon Dynasty needs is a lot of farming and a lot of food."
"If everyone goes to study, there will be a shortage of food. Then the number of hungry people will increase rapidly, and the whole world will inevitably fall into chaos."
"Your Highness, food is the most important thing for the people. This is fundamental. What the court cares about is the stability of the world and the increase in food."
"Most of the officials in the imperial court now have inherited the blessings from their ancestors. Common people have remained common people for generations, and only a few have entered the official career."
"Since they were young, they have helped their families cultivate land and farm. If they went to study, they would know nothing about farming."
"This is a very terrible thing, so all the ministers will oppose it. I believe that even the emperor will definitely oppose it."
"For the future of His Highness, this matter must not be touched."
Fang Pu said a lot in a row, and every sentence was spoken from the bottom of his heart. If it were anyone else, Fang Pu would probably sit back and ignore it, or even watch the joke in the future.
But His Highness Long Lin was kind to their Fang family, so he would be willing to say all these words sincerely.
In Fang Pu's view, it was very easy for His Highness Long Lin to join the Ministry of Rites.
The entire Ministry of Rites has entered a stable state, and it is unlikely that anything will go wrong if the top and bottom work together.
Even if His Highness Long Lin does not go to the Ministry of Rites, he will not have any influence on the Ministry of Rites. In his opinion, His Highness can completely enjoy life.
When he said these words, he had been observing His Highness Long Lin, hoping to persuade His Highness to completely give up that idea.
Long Lin listened very seriously, his face was very calm, without any disturbance.
This is not something that happens overnight. It will have a certain impact, but it is definitely not that serious. There are some things that he still needs to think about carefully.
Whatever he can do for the people of the world, he will spare no effort to do it. He has made up his mind on this matter and will not change it at all.
From Fang Pu's words, Long Lin also heard something.
The current Dragon Dynasty has indeed entered stability. Except for some bandits who are making trouble, the whole world is relatively peaceful.
This is the effect that the rulers want to see, and it must be the effect that the emperor wants to see. But if this continues, the world will become a pool of stagnant water.
In such a world, there is no vitality at all. Life is like the imperial court. If you fall behind, you will be beaten. If this continues, you will probably be beaten sooner or later.
Long Lin thought briefly and strengthened his idea.
Since he wants to do things for the people, he naturally has to stand on the side of the people. If he conforms to the powerful, he might as well enjoy life.
"Master Fang, don't be impatient. Let's talk about it now. Don't think about the future. I know what you are thinking. I am afraid of worrying about my future. I am afraid of angering the officials, and they will collectively reject me."
"But, you should also understand that my brother is more passionate about the throne than me. Compared to him, I have no advantage at all."
"I don't think that it will sweep the whole world at once, but I will resolutely implement this matter, starting from the capital city."
"Even if the sky falls, I will be the one to hold it up. You just need to help me. If anything happens, I will be responsible."
After hearing these words, Mr. Fang's expression became very complicated.
He didn't expect that even after he said so much, he didn't change His Highness's mind at all.
This matter is not that easy, and Fang Pu is not too worried.
He knew that His Highness Long Lin's idea could not be implemented at all.
When the time comes, if the voices of opposition arise one after another, the emperor will surely take action. At that time, Long Lin may be directly transferred to another official position.
However, the biggest impact is that Long Lin is bound to offend a lot of officials.
Such behavior will undoubtedly make His Highness Long Lin's originally small hope become even more impossible.
It seems that His Highness Long Lin is destined to have no chance of ascending to the throne.
His idea is right, and his father is wrong, but right or wrong is not important. What is important is that His Highness is kind to the Fang family.
"Your Highness, I understand. Your Highness can rest assured that as long as His Highness orders something, I will definitely do it properly for His Highness."
"Very good. Mr. Fang must have been very tired these past few days. Take a good rest after you go back. Just go directly to the Ministry of Etiquette tomorrow."
Fang Pu stood up respectfully and saluted politely.
"Your Highness, please retire. Your Highness should take a rest early. You must take care of yourself. When it comes to fatigue, I am not as good as Your Highness."
Long Lin nodded and watched Fang Pu leave.
There were guards outside the door, who would take Fang Pu all the way out of the mansion. He and Mr. Fang had dinner as soon as they returned to the mansion.
However, due to his identity, Long Lin can't go see him off now. Maybe one day in the future, he can get up and see off Mr. Fang.
