When he walked out of the palace, Zheng Yi seemed a little tired. He had been talking all day, saying that his mouth was dry and his head was a little dizzy. Zhuge Liang also followed him and walked out with him. Zheng Yi
Although he looked down upon all the officials in the temple, he also respected Zhuge Liang very much. He felt that the only capable minister in the world was Zhuge Linggong beside him, so he followed Zhuge Liang cautiously.
"Hahaha, Zheng Jun, I still want to thank you." Zhuge Liang said, Zheng Yi was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Why?", "Because you helped me solve one of my biggest worries.
", Zhuge Liang sighed and said: "The Han Dynasty is indeed becoming more and more powerful, but, for some reason, the more powerful it becomes, the faster the old habits disappear."
"I used to patrol the countryside. At that time, when I stayed at the homes of the people in the countryside, they would give them hospitality and give them money the next day. They would be very angry and thought it was an insult to them, so I
I saw an old man from a poor family who was stunned and threw his money bag on my head, but now? I was touring the local area a few months ago and entered several houses and wanted to stay overnight. They asked me if I could
How much does it cost?”
"Perhaps it's just that there is too much money. People nowadays only have money in their eyes. I heard that when people marry their girls nowadays, they have to choose a rich family. They will not marry unless they are rich. What do you think this is like?
, If Emperor Xiaokang sees the big man today, I don’t know whether he will be happy or disappointed." Zhuge Liang said, raising his head and looking at the starry sky, he said: "Sometimes, I am also at a loss."
"For decades, what have I done? My efforts seem to have made the big man worse. Until today, after listening to Zheng Jun's words, I found the answer. You are right. Now he is indeed a
In different prosperous times, people not only need clothes and food, but also need other things, such as culture and etiquette. I have thought of some solutions in this regard in the past, but I have not been able to come up with something like Zheng Jun's.
Come up with a mature approach.”
"It seems that I am far inferior to Mr. Zheng." Zhuge Liang sighed with emotion.
Zheng Yi shook his head hurriedly and said: "I don't dare to praise you so much. Your Majesty is a rare and capable minister of the Han Dynasty, and I am far inferior to him." Zheng Yi was a little frightened, but when Zhuge Liang heard this, he laughed and said:
"Your Excellency, please don't be humble. In my opinion, in the year of Heaven, there were two ministers, one of whom was far better than me. They were the deceased princes. He integrated the official schools. This matter was very important, far more than mine.
Political achievements in these decades”
"And your achievements this time are also the same. They are very important to the big man. If you need any help, just say it." Zhuge Liang said. Zheng Yicheng bid farewell to Zhuge Liang in fear and returned to his mansion.
, Actually, there is another thing. Zheng Yi never told Zhuge Liang, nor did he tell anyone. He wanted to set up rituals and give them to the official school, which was his re-explanation of rituals.
This is the most important thing. Zheng Yi does not dare to do it blatantly, otherwise, he will inevitably encounter opposition from everyone. But by putting this new gift in a new skin, it can be spread smoothly in the name of education. Since ancient times,
Nowadays, people who can give rituals are incredible. Confucius did not dare to do so. Zheng Yi naturally needs to be careful. These people will not understand that using the rituals of the predecessors can no longer create the soul of today's prosperous age.
.
Zheng Yi also began to think about it, and Pang Tong also began to prepare what Zheng Yi said. Regarding the establishment of the Cultural Office and even the selection of personnel, Pang Tong actually gave Zheng Yilai the responsibility for these matters. After all, these are all
Because of his strong thinking, his understanding of these decrees was much deeper than anyone else's. Zheng Yi finally got the power to implement it, and he immediately began to discuss the review system and reward system for books.
Zhuge Liang was not idle, and he once again filled many vacancies with his people. Ma Liang was appointed as the official servant to fill the vacancies after Wang Lang's death. Ma Liang had good political achievements when he was in power in various places, and his reputation was also good.
Very good, so his promotion quickly passed the review of the official government, and he became a new generation of official students. However, Wang Lang's influence in the official schools was too great. He wanted to completely control the official schools and implement decisions.
, I’m afraid it will have to wait for a while.
In addition to this, there is another vacancy, which is the newly established Pushe of the Ministry of Culture.
When Sun Quan named officials who could be promoted, Zhuge Liang was confused.
"Yuan Yao, the prefect of Xia County, had very outstanding political achievements during his tenure and was the best in all aspects. He is fully qualified to serve as the servant of the Ministry of Culture. What's more, he is still young and has not lost his ambition to expand. As a servant of the Ministry of Culture,
Shooting requires dealing with aristocratic families, celebrities and scholars from all over the world. Yuan Yao is the direct eldest son of Yuan Zi and the direct eldest son of the Yuan family, so he can definitely take up this position."
These were Sun Quan's exact words. Zhuge Liang seemed a little hesitant. He knew how capable his disciples were. Yuan Yao had been training for such a long time and his abilities had improved by leaps and bounds. However, he was still too young. If he could, Zhuge Liang wouldn't want to
Since he was in such a hurry to return to the temple, it would be best if he could hone his skills locally for a while. However, although Zhuge Liang thought so, others did not think so.
Everyone knows this guy. When he first arrived outside the Great Wall, there were only more than 40,000 people outside the Great Wall. After these days of governance, there are now more than 300,000 people in Xiajun outside the Great Wall, most of whom are former slaves.
After being released due to meritorious deeds, Yuan Yao led his people to work in the surrounding areas, including reclamation, animal husbandry, and mining. The development speed of Xia County was not slower than that of counties in Youzhou. Now Xia County also has the "Sili beyond the Great Wall"
Good name!
This young man is really good and he can definitely occupy this position.
In the Shizhongtai, even Pang Tong could not suppress the ministers. The others agreed. Even if Zhuge Liang objected in his heart, it was useless. During the negotiation, Yuan Yao became the servant of the Wenhua Mansion.
Of course, during this period, Liu Yi came to visit Liu Qu again and said the same thing. He hoped to get Zhong Changtong to leave the temple and Luoyang. It would be best if he could not be an official for the rest of his life, and the other would be to urge the emperor.
, hold a court meeting as soon as possible, etc. Liu Qu, who had already forgotten Zhong Changtong, once again thought of this servant of the household. As a servant of the household, although Zhong Changtong always did not do serious things, he still
He's an excellent shooter.
Liu Qu sent someone to take Zhong Changtong to the Tai Palace. He drank tea and thought about it while waiting.
Zhong Changtong is different from others. At any rate, others are still recorded in the Book of Heaven. However, Zhong Changtong does not seem to have appeared in the Book of Heaven. Therefore, Liu Qu is not sure who this person is. However, he
His name has not even appeared in the Book of Heaven. It can be seen that this person is by no means a genius like Zhuge Linggong. However, Pang Tong, who is also a great talent, and even Zhuge Liang and others all praise this person quite a lot and feel that
This person has a miraculous talent.
Therefore, Liu Qu decided to meet this man in person to see what kind of person he was.
As early as when Huangmen arrived at Zhong Changtong's mansion, Zhong Changtong began to prepare what he would say later. He did not expect that the emperor had delayed for so long before coming to see him, and that it had become so difficult to see the emperor.
This matter is really a shameful thing for a temple servant. Zhong Changtong drove to the palace with a calm expression. As soon as he arrived at the palace, he saw Zheng Yi leaving from the gate.
come out.
"Oh? Zheng Jun? I didn't expect that Zheng Jun also became the minister of the Central Government?" Zhong Changtong asked with a smile. Zheng Yi was stunned. He had no good impression of Zhong Changtong.
When he was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something and walked up to him and asked: "How many people in the Han Dynasty are literate now?" Zhong Changtong replied without thinking: "There are more than 10 million people in the Han Dynasty.
They are literate, but some can read more and some can read less, so it is difficult to make a complete statistics."
"Well, very good, come to my place later!" Zheng Yi said, then turned and left.
Zhong Changyi looked at him with confusion, looked at Huangmen aside, and asked: "Is Zhuge Linggong dead?"
Huang Men's face changed drastically and he said hurriedly: "Zhong Changjun, please don't talk nonsense!! Shangshu Ling is still fine."
"That's Pang Linggong or"
"They are all doing well."
"Then why does this guy look like he has been serving three orders and wants me to go to his place??" Zhong Changtong asked in confusion. Huangmen couldn't tell. Zhong Changtong also asked again. At Huangmen,
Under the leadership of the leader, he entered the palace, subconsciously walked a few steps towards Houde Hall, but stopped again, and rushed to Tai Hall. As soon as he entered the hall, he saw the burly Emperor, Liu Qu was sitting
Not far away, I was eating tea and looking at this long-famous minister.
"Your Majesty, Zhong Changtong, pays homage to Your Majesty!" Zhong Changtong paid homage to him.
"Well, get up." Liu Qu waved his hand. Zhong Changtong had just stood up. Liu Qu asked him to sit next to him and said with a smile: "I have heard Zhong Changtong's name for a long time. I am too busy. Usually
I don’t even have the chance to meet with you in private, it’s rare today.” Zhong Changtong hurriedly said he didn’t dare. Seeing that he looked respectful, he was not as arrogant as the rumors said, which made Liu Qu have a better impression of him.
.
Liu Qu was not like his father and grandfather, and he didn't like to talk. He directly asked: "I heard that your Excellency and Zhongshu Ling had some conflicts?"
In fact, Liu Qu called Yuan Shang long ago and asked about the conflict between them. However, he only knew that Zhong Changtong had visited Liu Yi, but he did not know what he said to Liu Yi specifically, which caused his uncle to treat him
So angry.
"Your Majesty, I am just a small servant, how dare I have any dissatisfaction with Sanling? I am as close as a close friend to Zhongshu Ling. They are extremely close."
"Hahaha, that's true. My uncle loves you so much that he wants to bury you with his own hands!"
