Remember in one second/manghuangji provides you with wonderful novels to read.

The imperial guards cleared the way, pedestrians stopped on the streets, and windows were closed. Chao Gai's ban on entry and exit was much stricter than that of Chao Yong, not only because Chao Gai was the most powerful person in the Nine Five Years, but also because Chao Gai could not dodge strong crossbows like Chao Yong.

, have to proceed with caution.

It was already evening when we came out of the military camp. There was smoke from cooking in the city and the smell of rice was fragrant. However, the city was also enveloped by a puff of black smoke.

People in Tokyo use charcoal to light fires. Although charcoal has solved the firewood problem for more than one million people, the smoke caused by it is still a bit bigger. Except for the imperial palace and some wealthy families who can afford smokeless charcoal, the city

The common people still use charcoal of varying quality.

Of course Chao Yong knew that even if the palace used anthracite, it would still breathe the same air as the people in the city, but he had nothing to do. If the stoves used by more than one million people were not charcoal, the Central Plains would soon become bare.

Choosing the lesser of two evils is perhaps an inevitable process of human development.

Chao Yong did not want to ride a horse in the smoke and dust, but hid in Chao Gai's chariot. In order to prevent assassination, Chao Gai always rode in a chariot, and the back and left and right sides were protected by steel plates. Of course, this also made the chariot's

The weight is much heavier,

However, there is no shortage of good horses in the palace. The draft horses that pull the emperor's chariot are all the best war horses in the army, and there are six draft horses for the emperor's chariot. In other words, "the emperor drives six", even if they are used

The steel plate cannot affect the speed of the chariot.

Chao Yong had just returned to class yesterday. Chao Gai understood Chao Yong's hard work and let him go back after giving him a banquet without asking him alone. Today he was busy rewarding the three armies, but the two of them had no time to be alone.

Chao Gai asked Chao Yong some things about Xixia, and also affirmed Chao Yong's decision to merge with Shaanxi Sixth Road.

"After Xixia is wiped out, green and white salt can be supplied to the country. Otherwise, we have to buy salt from Jiangnan at a high price. The imperial treasury is tight. It won't take long. I'm afraid I will have to withdraw money from your ticket number. You have to do it early.

Be prepared, lest you fail to deliver and be impeached by the ministers."

Chao Yong asked curiously: "Previously, the treasury still had tens of millions of dollars, but now it has bottomed out?"

Chao Gai said helplessly: "This year, there was first a severe drought and a locust plague, and then there were floods. In addition, the war continued, and there was a harvest failure in many places. The number of people assisted in nursing homes in various states increased greatly, in order to prevent the emergence of refugees. Originally,

Kyo prepares to slow down

Nursing homes can only be set up on West Road and Gyeonggi Road. The Ningxia Road and Hedong Road that you have recently built must also follow suit immediately. In June, the Yellow River burst in Eunju, wreaking havoc on several states and creating millions of refugees. It was also necessary to provide relief and resettlement to them.

A lot of money and food were wasted.”

Chao Yong had never done farm work and didn't care about farming. Hearing what Chao Gai said, he remembered that when he led troops to reinforce the northwest, he almost never encountered rainy days. Even if it rained, it only stopped for a moment. Later on the march road

I see locusts from time to time

, he only thought that the ecological environment in ancient times was good, and did not expect the locust plague. When he was preparing to teach in Xingqing Mansion in June, he was blocked by heavy rain for three consecutive days, and the water in the Tanglai Canal surged.

, no wonder the Yellow River burst.

Emotions While he was fighting on the front line, Chao Gai was also fighting against God in the back. Of course, there were also the corrupt officials in the country. Although there were no swords and swords in the back, the fight behind the scenes would never be easier than on the front.

"Father is tired."

Chao Gai smiled and said: "As long as you are undefeated, there won't be any big trouble. Occasionally there will be some small thieves, just kill them. Now the court has allocated 10,000 shi of food. When it reaches the ground, it will still be 10,000 shi, and there will be no one."

lack."

Chao Yong nodded and said: "My father is wise. In troubled times, he used heavy laws. In the Song Dynasty, the officials were fattened. If they were not bled, they would suck the blood of the court and the people."

Chao Gai also thought of the days in Dongxi Village, shook his head and said: "The world is like this. Back then, when I went to Yuncheng County, I had to spend some money. The county chief, the state inspection, and even the official below, who arrived?

Dongxi Village, I can't treat you well. Now we prohibit officials from eating and asking for cards, which has caused so much hatred, but as long as you are here, they can't change the world."

Chao Yong smiled and said: "Although those officials hold grudges, the people of the world must be grateful to the imperial court. With their support of the imperial court, our Daliang can be passed down from generation to generation."

Chao Gai shook his head and said: "The Tang Dynasty and the Han Dynasty only lasted for hundreds of years, and I don't dare to expect that the beams will last forever. But if we make the people live a better life, our Chao family can always be passed down for several more generations."

I couldn't change the world before, if

Now that we have the ability to change the world, how can we not make some attempts. In the past, we could only kill some corrupt officials to enforce justice for heaven. Now that we have gained the power and have the ability, we should naturally clean up the world and restore the world to a bright future.

."

Chao Gai had read a lot of books originally. After he became the emperor, he knew that knowledge was needed to govern the world. He spent his spare time reading when dealing with government affairs. After a few months, he was quite fruitful.

Chao Yong hated corrupt officials, and combined the emotions of the two generations. Now seeing that Chao Gai also supported him, he said happily: "Father is far-sighted, our Chao family is in charge of the world, and the greatest wealth is the people of the world. As long as we have the support of the people, we will

There is no shortage of troops

Horses, there is no shortage of officials. Officials are just selected by us to help us govern the world, and they are the least valuable. Even if we replace them all, we can always find new officials. But without the people of the world,

The imperial court did not

The foundation was lost. The emperors of the Song Dynasty were stupid and believed that the emperor governed the world with the scholar-bureaucrats. He was generous to the scholar-bureaucrats but treated the common people like pigs and dogs. Especially in the Zhao Ji dynasty, the most important officials were Cai Jing, Wang Mian and other scholar-bureaucrats. In order to satisfy their personal needs,

People's selfish desires plundered the world and forced the people of the world to rebel. In the end, it was not the Zhao family that was unlucky. How many of those scholar-bureaucrats were willing to live and die with the Song Dynasty. If we pardon Cai Jing, Wang Fu and the like, they will definitely submit to us one by one."

Chao Gai nodded and said: "You are right. I have read some history books recently. No matter they are the former wealthy families or the later literati, they cannot be trusted. These people rely on their talents and learning, no matter how they change dynasties, they can be influenced by

reused, so it will not affect which dynasty

Die loyal. These traitors have harmed the country. Once they see that the situation is not going well, they will immediately change their families and join new owners to keep their wealth. Fortunately, there have been more and more scholars in the past few hundred years, and the implementation of the imperial examination system has reduced the wealth of the wealthy families.

It was defeated, but the literati are still a small group after all.”

When Chao Yong heard what Chao Gai said, he followed the trend and said: "Today's knowledge inheritance still has many flaws. I have recently sorted out some disciplines and waited until the world is unified."

Chao Gai naturally knew his son's abilities. In terms of martial arts, apart from his natural power, there was nothing outstanding. In terms of literary talent, although he hired a private school professor since he was a child, Chao Yong didn't like reading since he was a child. In the end, he could only read and write. He had to

When it comes to learning, that is definitely not something that my own son can do.

Chao Gai thought about it for a moment, then realized what he was doing and asked in surprise: "Is it taught by Empress Jiutian Xuannv?"

What Chao Yong planned to organize was mathematics and physics. Many things did not exist in this era. Chao Yong in the past obviously could not create them himself. And for better promotion, Chao Yong nodded and said: "Father is wise. That's right.

In the heavenly inheritance, one is mathematics and the other is physics. Mathematics has more content than arithmetic, while physics studies all things in the world."

When Chao Gai heard Chao Yong explain physics, his curiosity was aroused and he asked: "Everything in the world? After you have written it, send it to me for a look."

Chao Yong nodded and said: "Mathematics has been written. I will send it to my father later. Physics has just begun. Once it is written, I will let my father take a look."

"Okay, okay, you can always surprise dad. If you can write down these two knowledges, you will be like that saint. I, Daliang, can pass it on to several more generations."

Chao Yong thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's not as good as those saints."

Chao Gai asked suspiciously: "Why?"

Chao Yong said seriously: "My two knowledges are practical knowledge, which can make people deal with affairs more easily and understand the world more clearly, but they cannot educate the world like Confucianism. Although Confucianism has many unreasonable things

, but their educational effect on the world cannot be denied.”

Chao Gai nodded and said, "You mean that with these two branches of knowledge, you can't stop Confucianism?"

Chao Yong thought about future generations. While overthrowing feudal ideas, he also overturned a lot of culture worth inheriting, resulting in moral decay and a decline in social norms. No matter how rich the material is, the lack of spiritual civilization is undeniable, and various things that destroy human ethics are common. Therefore,

Later generations repeatedly mentioned the construction of spiritual civilization.

"Well, these two knowledges can be turned into productive forces, which means they can create more wealth for us, Daliang. But they cannot affect people's spiritual world. Confucian benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom, and trust are still necessary. Otherwise, if the son is unfilial, the ministers will be unfilial.

If you are unfaithful, your relationship will be ruined, and I, Daliang, will become a sinner."

Chao Gai nodded and said: "From now on, the three subjects of knowledge will be taught in parallel, but I'm afraid those who pass the imperial examination will be older."

Chao Yong smiled and said: "The purpose of the imperial examination is to select people who can govern, not to select people with high knowledge. In the past, poems and poems were used to select scholars. Su Dongpo and his like were able to rely on their high schools for literary talent, but they may not be able to become officials.

Do something that is beneficial to the world and the people. After Wang Anshi's reform, he switched to using classics and principles to discuss the imperial examinations, which was a great progress. After I started to sort out mathematics, I also learned some things about the imperial examinations.

Love, this classic meaning is just something that Wang Anshi used to unify the thoughts of the world's literati, and it has nothing to do with being an official. Only current affairs policy is to test the talents of officials in schools. Since our country has created a new world, we might as well make drastic reforms and reduce the number of officials.

It is an examination of meaning and focuses on current affairs and policies. In this way, people don’t have to spend too much time memorizing the contents and commentaries of the classics.”

Chao Gai was also very interested in changing the situation and asked: "Don't you need to re-open your new mathematics and physics subjects?"

Chao Yong thought for a while and said: "No need, isn't there a Mingfa subject in the imperial examination?"

After capturing Tokyo, Daliang held the first imperial examination for the scholars gathered in the Song Dynasty. Chao Gai naturally also understood some things about the imperial examination, nodded and said: "The Mingfa Department tests the school's laws."

Chao Yong said: "I think we should use the imperial examination to separate the powers of the world. Those who are in the Ming Law Department can handle cases, and those who are Jinshi can handle political affairs. Then restore the Ming Shu Department of the Tang Dynasty, and those who are in the Ming Dynasty can manage money and food. The officials of the world

Divide it into three systems so that they can specialize in techniques."

Chao Gai thought for a while and said: "It's good to have specializations in martial arts, but they still need to have subordinates, right?"

Chao Yong said: "The Zhizhou is in charge of political affairs and can also have jurisdiction over the officials within the territory. However, people from the Ming Law Department and Ming Suan Department are in charge of daily money and food, and the resolution of cases. Even if the Zhizhou has objections, he cannot directly intervene and must report to the court.

The imperial court will send people from the same system to verify, or the censor will verify."

Chao Gai nodded and said: "This is a good idea. It not only allows them to specialize in their crafts, but also divides the power of the governor and the governor. These literati will not cause any trouble. The old brother Liangshan is in charge of the military. I am not worried about the military.

.It’s just that all the political affairs are left to the literati, but I don’t feel at ease. It would be better if the power is divided. I will discuss the reform of the imperial examination with the prime minister and the political affairs minister later.”

Chao Yong frowned when he saw Chao Gai talking about the prime minister, and said: "They assist my father in running the government, so we should discuss with them."

Chao Gai shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it won't work without discussion."

When Chao Yong heard this, he frowned and said: "This world belongs to my Chao family, and it is my father Qiangang who makes the decision. They must also listen. I, the Emperor of Daliang, must discuss it with them."

"After Zhang Shuye became an official, he always asked me to give up most of my power, and let the prime minister and the counselor handle political affairs. These days, Wu Yong and Zhang Shuye have also stood together. Although Zhao Mingcheng has not made a clear statement, the two of them have

Not helping."

Thinking of Wu Yong, Chao Gai couldn't help but flash a trace of pain on his face. He and Wu Yong have been close friends for many years. It was Wu Yong's idea to rob the birthday plan. If it weren't for Wu Yong, maybe he wouldn't have gone to Liangshan, either.

There would be no Daliang now. But the friendship between the two for many years was no match for the erosion of power. Even though Wu Yong was already the first civil servant in the DPRK, he still focused on the power in the hands of the emperor and wanted to give the prime minister the power.
