Chapter 341 How can the matter of scholars be called cheating
The prince is a good student.
Chen Ping thought of this.
At least he still retains his curiosity about things and wants to try to solve problems. This may not be uncommon among ordinary scholars, but for the famous prince and the current prince, this is really rare.
But regarding the prince's question, Chen Ping just wanted to say that he couldn't do it either.
It is impossible to inherit it for ten thousand years, but Guo Zuo, who has extended his reputation, thinks he can still operate it.
"Emperors in ancient and modern times have prayed for longevity, but no one can achieve it. Your Highness wants to have a great reputation that will last for thousands of years, but I cannot do it."
"In fact, many saints and sages have discovered what I have said. Reforms in the past dynasties are a kind of rescue measure. However, reforms have achieved few successes and many failures. I think it cannot be forced."
After saying that, things were back to the original point. The prince frowned and asked, "But if we don't change the law, wouldn't it mean that the reputation doesn't have much time left?"
As soon as he said these words, the prince's young teacher, who had some time to rest in the classroom, couldn't help but become serious.
"Your Highness, please don't speak nonsense!"
"Chen Xiuzhuan, you..."
The prince suddenly turned his head to look at the young master, and said with a serious face: "You are not lying. Young Master, please let Mr. Chen finish what he said."
Seeing the prince's statement, the prince's young master was stunned. Chen Ping immediately bowed his hand to the young master, and then looked at the prince with a solemn expression.
"Your Highness is right. Now our Dayu Dynasty has reached a point where life and death have to change. It is not only a crisis at the court, but also a crisis hidden below."
"Sir, please speak frankly."
The prince bowed sincerely and bowed. This was something he had never done in the East Palace in recent years.
"Let's not talk about the reform for now. Even if His Highness is willing, I don't have the courage. At least I will be ruined, and at worst I will be implicated in the nine races. Even if I succeed, there will be more slander in future generations. It is really a thankless thing."
"But apart from the reform, I think there is another way to go."
"Your Highness, do you still remember that map?"
In the classroom in the East Palace, the atmosphere gradually became heated. Dr. Liu of the Imperial Academy glanced at the young master with his frown furrowed as if facing an enemy, and couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
Isn't this Chen Ping from a peasant family? It is a miracle in the world that he studied so hard at Liu Yuan Ji Di that he can still express such insights today, and his words involve astronomy, geography, and even many things that are not known to scholars at all.
Such talent made him feel palpitated and restless at the same time.
It wasn't until sunset that Chen Ping left the East Palace. The prince even saw him off all the way and didn't stop until he was in front of the door.
This courtesy was all because Chen Ping taught him a unique lesson today, and the content of the lesson was unforgettable for the prince.
"Master Chen's talk about overseas settlement and trade is really an eye-opener for me."
As soon as Chen Ping left the East Palace, he was caught up by Dr. Liu. As soon as he met, he took advantage of the afternoon course to praise him.
Chen Ping was vigilant and replied with a smile: "They are just heresy and cannot be put on the table."
"Hey, you can't say that. I see the Young Master is thinking about it. Master Chen is right. This is the best choice when the law does not change."
Chen Ping smiled. Even if the cake is to be made big, there is no reason not to reform the method of dividing the cake. Otherwise, no matter how big the cake is, it will be divided up by the rats very quickly. In that case, wouldn't the cake become bigger in vain? Dr. Liu did not see what Chen Ping was thinking. He said to himself: "I think Mr. Chen is a unique genius. If you need it in the future, just let me know. Although the Imperial College is a Qingshui Yamen, it can always be strong."
Momentum."
Oh, it turned out that he was a person who wanted to make connections and do favors, so naturally it was hard to refuse, so he agreed with all his heart, and finally made the Doctor of the Five Classics of the Imperial College leave with satisfaction.
"Hmm...Looking at it like this, there should be a lot of people in the DPRK and China interested in my plan. Tsk, it's such a good feeling. It's really unreasonable not to invest in the whole concept stock."
"But now is not the time..."
Dr. Liu's trickery almost inspired Chen Ping. As he said before, he is not the only one who can see the shortcomings of the ultimate demise of all dynasties. There are many smart people in the world. Why don't they say they don't do it? p>
The reason is very simple. The vested interest groups are too powerful. Anyone who wants to touch this bottom line will be ruthlessly crushed to death.
What's more, Emperor Tianqi is now dead. The most basic condition for a successful reform is to get the support of the long-lived emperor, otherwise everything will be just a flash in the pan and a full moon in the water.
Even if you are trying to make a big cake, you will be blocked. Without the support of the emperor, it is just empty talk.
Of course, these are only things that will happen in the future. The most important thing now is how to survive the crisis and eliminate the threat of the King of Chu who may covet the throne.
Needless to say, which one is better to deceive, a young prince or an older feudal lord? No, it is better to guide.
How can things about scholars be called cheating?
After returning home, he washed up and read the newspaper until it was getting late. Chen Ping took off his clothes and went to bed. Another day of fishing was over.
......
Early morning, early morning, early morning.
I have to say important things three times. As a good young man in the new era, Chen Ping's hatred of feudal society has become more and more obvious now. Thanks to Emperor Tianqi's poor health, if he is in good health, why not go to court early every day?
I get up at four or five in the morning every morning and go to court, and my scalp feels numb just thinking about it.
Fortunately, Chen Ping is a good and well-behaved boy, and he exercises every day under Luo Li's guidance, so he can still bear it.
On the way to the gathering in front of the palace gate, he had already seen too many colleagues yawning and squinting their eyes. It’s hard for an official to do this!
Having been an official for half a month, Chen Ping was basically familiar with the process of going to court. He went all the way into the palace to wait for the announcement of the court.
Until the eunuch shouted at the top of his lungs, Chen Ping calmly followed Xie Jinan, the boss of Chengzhi, into the Chongzheng Hall.
As the only official below the fifth rank among the officials present who is neither a royal censor nor a record officer, Chen Ping feels pretty good. Who is he who is the youngest present?
Looking at Emperor Tianqi on the dragon throne, Chen Ping remembered a famous line.
"Within three days, I will wipe out all Wu Guohao's positions!"
In the same three days, the Infantry Division, Sima Jun Division and the Imperial City Division's troops had already searched the entire capital. People from the Cheng family, including those who had contact with the Cheng family, were imprisoned, including some who were in the court.
Official.
However, Chen Ping felt a little strange when he saw the Minister of the Ministry of War and the Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate following the court with calm faces.
Are they not panicking? Or have they developed the ability to hide their emotions and anger over the years?
Even if this is the case, how can they remain unmoved when it is a major matter of right and wrong that concerns their own safety?
"Your Majesty, I have my heart and I want to tell you!"
The one who spoke was the Minister of War. Chen Ping was shocked and glanced at the other party to observe the situation.
"The arrests and searches of smuggling thieves in recent days have been significant. I ask your Majesty to order all states in the world to arrest the criminals together. Only in this way can the thieves be severely damaged or even completely eliminated!"
