Xia Xun's ability in both civil and military fields was not as good as those officials with a professional background. He relied on his ability to rise to the top, so information and intelligence were of extremely important significance to his decisions and actions. In view of this, he came up with the idea of establishing
When he established an intelligence organization completely under his control, he consciously separated Feilong and Qianlong, no matter in terms of personnel, establishment, equipment, or salaries.
Therefore, it was very easy for him to hand over, and he did not have to worry about any entanglement between Feilong and Qianlong that would make Hu Hui aware of it. Therefore, he only cleaned up for one night and handed over the entire Feilong organization to Hu Hui.
Mi's hand.
He didn't take the emperor's summons too seriously. His political achievements in Liaodong were so outstanding that the emperor also publicly praised him in the palace. This was an affirmation of him. As for him breaking the rules of the officialdom, to be honest,
Trapping and killing the minister in this way was a violation of national law. The emperor did not publicly pursue this matter. He only deprived him of the power to take charge of secret spies, which was extremely lenient. When he wanted to come, the emperor summoned him after the court meeting just to appease him and prevent him from thinking
He fell out of favor and became resentful.
But on this point, Xia Xun guessed wrong. Does the emperor need to care whether his ministers are grateful or resentful? Especially for an emperor with an extremely strong personality like Zhu Di, for his ministers, thunder, rain and dew are all the emperor's favor, and
For the emperor, it was a sincere expression of the emperor's joy and anger. Does he need to conceal his joy and anger because he cares about what a minister thinks?
After the court meeting, when Xia Xun rushed to the Jinshen Hall on time to see the driver, he saw that the cabinet's chief assistant bachelors Xie Jin and Yang Rong were there, and even Master Zuo Shanshi Daoyan of the Senglu Division suddenly appeared.
I know it's not as simple as chatting a few words to soothe your emotions.
Sure enough, when everyone arrived, Zhu Di opened the sect and said: "Dear dear ministers, when the emperor was in the imperial examination, in order to discipline the prince, he ordered the scholars of the dynasty and the great scholars of the time to collect the classics and aphorisms and compile them into a book called "Chu Jun Zhao".
"Jianlu", to give instructions to the crown prince. Now that I have assumed the great position, I cannot but pay attention to the affairs of my descendants and the foundation of the country.
Think about the time when Qin Shihuang taught the prince law, and Emperor Jin Yuan paid great attention to teaching "Han Feizi" to the prince and educating the prince. However, they focused on the law and neglected the way of emperor's rule, which led to chaos and chaos. We must learn from the past.
Learn from the lesson. The most important thing about the study of emperors is practical application. I want you to take "Chu Jun Zhao Jian Lu" from Anhuang Kao as the basis, slightly expand it, and add Sheng Mo's great teachings from Anhuang kao and saints that have not been included in it.
Holy Word.
The book contains all the great sutras and Dharma, which are used to teach the descendants of the royal family. It will be of great benefit to their moral character and academic performance. If the descendants can abide by this and do things for the king, they can become a wise king, which will be a great achievement. Therefore,
, I have summoned all the ministers today, hoping that the three beloved ministers, Yang Xu, Xie Jin, and Dao Yan, can take the lead, and all the beloved ministers can help me to compile a "Cultural Treasure Guide", which will be a method that will never be easy for future generations of emperors!"
Xia Xun is no longer the stupid young man he was when he first arrived in the Ming Dynasty. Of course, he knows that cultural and educational matters were actually the most important thing for the court in the feudal era. Compiling books under orders is by no means a boring task.
Interests are by no means just recorded in history, but are real political capital and political power. From the few people the emperor summoned, we can see how much he attaches importance to this matter.
The ministers were overjoyed and immediately bowed to receive the order. Xia Xun followed everyone and bowed politely, thinking in his mind: "Master Daoyan is profound in knowledge. He not only presided over the compilation of "Taizu Shilu", but also wrote "Daoyu Lu" by himself.
", refuted the two Chengs (Cheng Hao and Cheng Yi) of the Northern Song Dynasty, and Zhu Xi of the Southern Song Dynasty had a total of forty-nine absurdities in his manuscripts. Although he was a monk, he was more talented and learned than the great Confucians of the time.
Xie Jin, Yang Rong and others were all great scholars at that time, well-read and talented. It was natural for them to participate in the compilation of books. Speaking of which, I, the auxiliary Duke, was the only scholar with the status of a scholar, so I still asked them to do so.
If I were to take the exam, I would not be able to pass the exam. Even if I was a true scholar, I would not be worth mentioning in front of talented people like Dao Yan and Xie Jin. Why should I be asked to participate?
Should I take the lead?"
Xia Xun thought about it over and over, and finally realized: "Yes, your Majesty, this is killing two birds with one stone. Asking me to participate is not only a kind of comfort and compensation for taking away the power of my flying dragon, but also a way to borrow the title of the Duke of our country. After all, compared to the chief minister of the cabinet,
With the official position of Senglusi, I am a more honorable duke. The emperor has compiled a book for future generations to read, so he must pay special attention to it. I am ashamed, this book... I am not capable of writing it, so I will just hang it up.
It’s just a matter of taking advantage of the name.”
After Zhu Di gave the order, all the ministers had different expressions. Zhu Di glanced at Xia Xun deliberately and saw the thoughtful look on his face. He couldn't help but smile happily and said: "Okay, I called you here for this matter.
Yang Xu will be in charge of this matter, and we will contact Master Xie Jin, Dao Yan and others later to prepare for compilation. I still have a thick pile of memorials to approve, so you can go about your business!"
After hearing this, everyone quickly bowed to the emperor and bowed out of the palace.
As soon as he left the Jinshen Palace, Xie Jin greeted Xia Xun with joy, held his hands in his arms and said with a smile: "The Duke has been away in Liaodong for more than a year, and Xie Jin misses him so much. He thinks that the Duke has just come back and is intimate with his family.
The reunion is important, so I won’t bother you at home. In a few days, I will invite my close friends and invite the Duke to have a few glasses of wine and say goodbye! Haha!"
Yang Rong, the cabinet scholar, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "When the government has drafted the charter, all we have to do is inform Yang. There are still a few official documents that need to be processed in my office, and there are not many of them now.
Excuse me. Farewell, farewell!"
The others also said goodbye to Xia Xun with a smile. Only Master Daoyan was still standing there. He smiled reservedly at Xia Xun and said, "After all these years, I am glad that the Duke is as heroic as before. I am a poor monk who has been sitting in the meditation room for a long time.
I have been studying Buddhist scriptures and principles without paying attention to worldly affairs for a long time, but I never thought I would have the opportunity to engage in a grand event with the Duke of Guangdong. When I wait for the government's justice to come out, I will send someone to the Senglu Division to inform me, and the old monk will come to the Duke's house for advice."
In the court, the size of the power and the level of the position are consistent in most cases, but there are exceptions in every dynasty and every generation. Xia Xun did not dare to be arrogant towards Dao Yan, and quickly returned the courtesy: "Master, you are so polite, Yang will learn from me."
There is a limit to this, so we have to rely more on the master and the great scholars for this matter. In the future, Yang should go to the abbot of the master and ask for his advice!"
Dao Yan smiled slightly and said, "Farewell!"
Xia Xun did not pay attention to people like Dao Yan and Xie Jin who participated in the compilation of "Records of Taizu". They were writing biographies for the late emperors of the Ming Dynasty, and now they are writing biographies for the descendants of the royal family.
Even happier than last time.
He returned the gift and walked out, thinking only: "Compiling a book? If you ask me to participate in the compilation of "Yongle Dadian", it will be a cultural event worth participating in. It is said that "Yongle Dadian" has more than 20,000 volumes.
, more than 10,000 volumes, hundreds of millions of words, all transcribed word by word manually. If we want to engrave it, it will take hundreds of years to engrave it. The "Yongle Dadian" will soon start to be compiled.
?This is a treasure ship that is the culmination of ancient Chinese civilization and culture. Why do you think of a way to make more copies of the "Yongle Dadian" in the world, lest this kind of cultural treasure be lost for no reason..."
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Xia Xun thought all the way back to his mansion, got off his horse, and handed the horse to the guard. As soon as he stepped into the door, an old man with a white beard came angrily, followed by Su Ying, Zi Qi and Xiao Di.
, Su Ying blushed and called out repeatedly: "Dr. Su, please stay. They are all naughty girls. I will definitely discipline them well. Doctor, please don't be angry..."
Zi Qi and Xiao Di shouted in support, but one of them couldn't help laughing, while the other covered his mouth and his eyes turned into crescent moons, obviously snickering.
When Xia Xun saw this old master, he recognized him as the teacher invited by his family. This gentleman was no ordinary person. His name was Su Hanchen. He was a doctor from the Imperial College. He came to teach at Fu Guogong Mansion, not because of the Yang family's limited cultivation.
But it was for the sake of his auxiliary Duke. Now seeing the old gentleman's angry look, Xia Xun knew that it was his precious daughter who had made the husband angry again, so he quickly stepped forward to stop her, and said with a smile: "Dr. Su, please stay, but
My little girl is naughty and makes my husband angry?"
Even though Xia Xun is such a big official outside, if he meets someone like Dr. Su on the road, he has to stand still at a distance and salute him by the roadside. But if you invite someone to be your husband, you have to treat them well.
If you don't behave well when you are a distinguished guest, even the emperor is like this. How pitiful are the hearts of parents all over the world.
When Dr. Su saw Xia Xun, his face turned red, he blew his beard and stared: "My lord, look, look, I have taught countless disciples in my life, and I have students all over the world, but I have never seen my daughter be so naughty...
, Mr. Guo, please hire someone else, I really can’t teach them!”
Xia Xun looked up and down, left and right, and after looking carefully for a long time, he said in surprise: "Master, isn't this a good thing? What happened?"
Dr. Su slapped his forehead and said, "I'm so angry. My lord, look at this. These are all the work of thousands of dollars!"
Su Hanchen turned around and stretched out his arms. Xia Xun couldn't help but laugh a little when he saw it. Master Su was wearing a moon-white spring shirt. The white shirt looked as elegant as a fairy. Now on the back of the shirt,
It was actually full of patterns, including a toad swallowing insects, a turtle shrinking its neck, a chicken pecking rice... At a quick glance, there were two little girls with braids upturned, standing proudly with swords on their backs, and one kneeling in front of them was beaten.
The old gentleman with a bruised nose and swollen face...
Not to mention, whether they are characters or animals, they are all painted with both form and spirit, and are lifelike. It is no wonder that Xia Xun can recognize everything he painted with just one glance.
Xuexian Su turned around angrily and said, "My lord, have you seen that the two girls are so naughty and disrespectful of their teachers? How can I teach them?"
As soon as he turned around, Xia Xun quickly put away the smile on his face, coughed, and said seriously to Su Ying, who had just arrived and was standing there in embarrassment: "Look at how angry your two precious daughters have made our husband.
, How indecent it is! Quickly bring me my lake silk moiré robe and put it on sir!"
After Xia Xun finished speaking, he turned to Dr. Su, laughed, and said with a smile on his face: "Sir, don't be upset, my little girls are naughty, and they need the guidance of teachers like you. Don't worry, sir, I will definitely discipline them well, sir."
Please come to the hall to have a cup of tea to calm down..." As he said that, he ignored Dr. Su's anger and helped him walk to the living room...
