"Your Majesty, if this book is used, our great Tang Dynasty...the great cause of culture and education will definitely fail!"
"Your Majesty, there are only more than 500 characters in this book. Wouldn't it be a mistake to use this incomplete book to teach?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, this book is completely misleading. Your Majesty, please think again!"
"Your Majesty, although this book has merits, we, the scholars, have never been afraid of hardship or fatigue, so you should leave this cultural and educational career to me!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please don't save your energy for us. We are really not afraid of suffering like this!"
All the ministers had runny noses and tears. They were so excited at this moment that they almost became incoherent.
but……
At this moment, Li Er's face turned dark and gradually became cold and serious.
He had already anticipated the reaction of this group of people, so he was not angry.
But just because he's not angry doesn't mean that Li Er will pretend not to see it!
My own court actually looks like this!
"I am very relieved that you are loyal to the country..."
Li Er's tone was extremely calm as he uttered such a sentence.
The moment I heard these words.
Everyone under the main hall suddenly became quiet.
oh?……
What do you mean by your Majesty's words? Have you listened to everyone's complaints?
No matter what words or phrases are used in this book, they must be washed away by him.
If this book cannot be washed away by him, then the next step will be really troublesome!
But looking at the current situation, it seems that there is hope for the better?
Everyone looked at Li Er with wide eyes and unblinking eyes.
Many young officials who first entered the court, or even Chang'an, and had little understanding of the dangers of interest struggles were confused.
But at this moment, Li Er's face showed a smile again.
"very good!"
"But you said there is something wrong with this book. I don't know what you think...what exactly is wrong with this book? Is it so serious that it can't even be used?"
Li Er asked with a half-smile.
This rhetorical question made the ministers of the aristocratic family suddenly look hesitant, and secretly screamed that it was bad. After doing this for a long time, Li Er really had no intention of letting it go easily... Thinking about it carefully, Li Er specifically did this, This is an impromptu court meeting, so how can we possibly let it go?
But Li Er wants to discuss it.
Since we are discussing this, we are all great scholars.
Isn't this simple?
So when Li Er asked this question, the ministers and officials below immediately spoke again, and the rabbit happily repeated the various reasons just mentioned.
But talking all over the place is a bit inappropriate after all.
Li Er's face was indifferent, obviously he didn't intend to give so much face.
Although it is a court meeting now, the rhythm is obviously that you are asking me to take back my orders one by one.
There are no rules when it comes to asking for help. How is this funny?
No matter what the people below said, Li Er simply ignored it.
When this group of people saw Li Er's expression, they immediately realized that they had made a mistake. They were too excited.
Everyone was silent for a moment, not daring to speak rashly. But at this moment, someone still couldn't help but speak.
Although Xiao Yu felt it was a bit overwhelming, this was his core interest and he had to go ahead with it.
"Your Majesty, the number of words in this book is only over 500. Using this incomplete book to teach the people of the world, isn't it...isn't this a misinterpretation of the way of the saints and the spread of fallacies?"
Xiao Yu himself felt outrageous when he said this, but at first glance it really seemed like that.
Is the content in the book incomplete? It must be incomplete. There are more than 500 Chinese words.
Isn’t it harmful to teach people incomplete knowledge?
Although everyone who became a great scholar is rushing to become a celebrity, become a big boss's staff, and then be recommended as an official to seek wealth and wealth, but this kind of basic professional ethics of a great scholar should still be remembered. The incomplete knowledge must not be used to teach others.
This is called "correction".
But when he said this, Li Er smiled slightly on his face.
Xiao Yu quietly looked at Li Er's face, and when he discovered this detail, he suddenly screamed in his heart.
Oops, Li Er seems to be prepared...
"Oh... the content of the book is incomplete. The incomplete content cannot be taught to others... Then I have to ask."
Li Er was smiling, and his eyes seemed a bit innocent.
“I don’t know if you think that ‘Shang Shu’ and ‘Book of Rites’ are incomplete books?”
"this……"
"This...Your Majesty..."
When Li Er asked this question, the faces of the officials below immediately turned pale.
Just now Xiao Yu spoke up, and they were still thinking that someone would finally come forward.
And what Xiao Yu said makes sense. You really can't use incomplete books to teach others.
But few people had thought about something more profound. Li Er suddenly asked back, and everyone was stunned.
Then, he subconsciously said, "How can this... be considered a incomplete book? That is a saint's..."
"...Shut up!..."
Immediately, an official touched the man and whispered a reminder.
The officials who subconsciously respected the ancients and the saints were all shocked by this reminder. Damn, wait a minute... There is something in Li Er's words...
As soon as I said the words, something felt wrong in my heart.
These officials suddenly felt something was wrong and immediately stopped talking.
But as the saying goes, you can't take back the water you throw out, and it's still in front of His Majesty, and in such a formal occasion as a court meeting!
Sure enough, Li Er's face was once again filled with smiles.
"You are right. The Book of Rites of the Book of Records cannot be regarded as incomplete. But have you ever thought that these two books are also incomplete compared to the entire Four Books and Five Classics?"
"But the incompleteness does not affect the greatness of these two scriptures. Although the literacy textbook today does not contain all the characters, as a book of literacy enlightenment for the common people, why can it be said to be incomplete?"
Li Er asked rhetorically.
At this time, all the officials in the court were completely speechless.
After all, I just admitted it, after all...
Every book in the world cannot collect all the knowledge, and it is destined to be incomplete.
Using this reason, it is impossible to effectively object to Li Er's use of this book.
But in this case...what should we do?
There was silence in the court for a while, but the atmosphere was as burning as if oil had been boiling in a pot.
And then, Li Er did not relax and directly gave everyone the final fatal blow.
"Haha. If this book is said to be incomplete, what book in the world is not incomplete? If it is said to be incomplete, it cannot be taught to people. Do you want me to order the burning of the book and the entrapment of scholars?"
"Say no more."
Li Er sneered, "Since you think this book is not comprehensive enough, that's fine..."
"When this book is printed and distributed, I will make the final decision to include it with a dictionary!"
"A picture literacy book plus a dictionary, do you think... is this comprehensive enough?"
Li Er said with a smile on his face.
The heavy crossbow in the court hall was filled with dead silence for a long time...
This time, all the officials in the Manchu Dynasty were really speechless, because this dictionary...
