The so-called Tianzhu iron, which is as sharp as clay and has been stainless for thousands of years, he just regarded as a cloud. This kind of false news was not worth distracting him.
It can only be collected and played by a small number of people, and it will not affect the overall situation.
As for Ma Jun's dissatisfaction with the lack of salary for teaching at Taixue and his unwillingness to enter Taixue, he could understand and even be happy to see its success.
Economic reform has just begun, wealth is growing rapidly, and ordinary people are jealous when they see money. This is a normal phenomenon, and there is no need to make a fuss.
A villain talks about profit and a gentleman talks about justice. This is how it should be.
If you have enough food and clothing, you will know the etiquette. If you have enough food and clothing, you will know the honor and disgrace. This is the normal law of human nature.
Those who live in poverty and live happily, and who have the courage to make sacrifices are true gentlemen. They can be admired, but they cannot be expected of ordinary people.
On the contrary, if you sit back and watch hypocrites gain benefits, but require ordinary people to only talk about justice and not profit, then that is a problem.
In his opinion, the world is not afraid that ordinary people will be greedy for money and have enough food and clothing. They will naturally have higher pursuits. But he is afraid that hypocrites will have the right to speak. While monopolizing huge profits and making a fortune, they talk about business as the greatest welfare.
Build yourself into a worldly master who doesn't like money.
What Liu Xie has to consider now is another thing.
Yuan Shao has withdrawn his troops and Shandong is about to be at peace. Even if the state of war is not lifted, war is no longer the main issue. Restoring production is on the agenda. How to increase the income of officials and soldiers has become a problem he must face.
At this time, it is obviously unrealistic to delay the salary arrears of officials, not to pay the soldiers, and only to provide them with food and clothing.
In addition, we need to build Imperial Academy, build martial arts hall, and even build the city of Chang'an. Where will the money come from?
The money is in Shandong, but the Shandong scholar-officials are unwilling to give it.
Liu Biao submitted a letter to declare himself a minister for so long, but the tribute has not been delivered. It is said that Zhang Ji's soldiers invaded Xiangyang, and the money and food were all used to protect the country and the people. Not only could he not pay tribute, but the court had to allocate more money.
This is really unreasonable.
Yizhou is even better. So far, let alone tribute, it has not even been called a vassal.
As soon as Zhang Xi died, the biggest trouble was that the communication with Yizhou was cut off. The people of Yizhou became silent as if they were mute.
This made Liu Xie very angry, and he was tempted to send troops, just like the devil's babble.
"Your Majesty, I agree that the Martial Arts Hall should be separated from the Imperial College." Pang Tong, who had been silent until now, suddenly said, "And the old site of Epang Palace is the best choice, bar none."
Liu Xie recovered his thoughts and turned to look at Pang Tong. "Why?"
"Many people object to building a martial arts hall at the former site of Afang Palace, not because of the cost. Anyone with a little knowledge knows that this plan is the cheapest. They object because they don't want people to think of the Qin government or the Qin army."
Pang Tong paused for a moment, then chuckled: "This is their inner fear. It is very necessary to maintain this fear."
"Shi Yuan, what are you talking about?" Zhuge Liang was a little dissatisfied and stopped Pang Tong with his eyes.
Pang Tong smiled even more proudly. "Soldiers are an ominous weapon. Everyone knows this truth, but many people ignore the latter sentence intentionally or unintentionally and use it for their own purposes. If it is just because soldiers are an ominous weapon, they will not listen.
If you don't listen and deceive yourself, won't you forget to fight? Although the world is safe, if you forget to fight, you will be in danger. This is the lesson of the Eastern Capital and cannot be forgotten."
Liu Xie's heart moved, and he understood what Pang Tong meant. The dark clouds that were weighing on his heart were swept away, and he felt refreshed instantly.
But he did not show it or express his opinion. He just signaled Pang Tong to continue.
"I also support Shi Yuan's opinion." Fazheng also spoke, lightly raising the riding whip in his hand. "Although the world is safe, if you forget to fight, you will be in danger. Now that the world is not safe, you can't forget the war. Not only can you not forget, but you must also actively prepare for war.
, be ready to go eastward at any time and unify the world. If this is not the case, I am afraid that the war will start again, the chaos between Wu and Chu will be a trivial matter, and it is not impossible for the story of the Six Kingdoms to conquer Qin to repeat itself."
"Could it be that in your eyes, the imperial court is...Qin?" Cao Ang couldn't help but say.
Fazheng looked at Cao Ang. "In my eyes, what the imperial court is is not important. What is important is in the eyes of those people, what the imperial court is. If they believe that the imperial court is Qin, even if His Majesty is willing to abdicate, I am afraid they will think it is
Of course. Cao Zixiu, not everyone knows current affairs and knows right from wrong like your father."
Cao Ang glared at Fazheng dissatisfiedly, feeling unhappy.
Discuss state affairs, just discuss state affairs. Why are you talking about my father?
Seeing that the topic seemed to be going astray, Liu Xie spoke up and asked the accompanying knights to speak freely and discuss Pang Tong and Fazheng's views.
There will be a group of governors and generals among these young people. It is very necessary to understand their tendencies in advance and let them understand their own governing ideas. Especially Cao Ang. After Cao Cao takes the initiative to enter the court to see Cao Cao, no matter how Cao Cao is arranged, Cao Ang should be released.
Go out and test the waters.
This is a necessary gesture that tells Shandong prefectures and counties what to do.
Kong Rong and Mi Heng walked into Ba City Gate, looked at the damaged palace walls on both sides, and glanced at each other in unison.
"Zhengping, do you feel like the final army has entered the pass?"
Mi Heng leaned against the wall of the carriage and curled his lips disdainfully. "Why did I come to the west to seek fame? I just want to scold the people in the army." He pointed to the palace wall. "Xiaowu conquered the south and the north, opened up the four barbarians,
Now where is An? Although this palace wall was destroyed by the hands of Chimei, the root of the disaster was planted by Xiaowu. Those who have good fame and fame can hardly escape the blame."
Kong Rong nodded. "What Zheng Ping said makes sense, but it's me, Meng Lang. In the beginning of peace in the world, the most important thing is to rest and recuperate. Don't rush for success and gain."
"Of course!" Old God Mi Heng nodded, moved his body, and stretched his legs. "I heard from the people in the post house yesterday that the emperor was going to build a martial arts hall at the old site of Afang Palace. This is simply chaos in government, and it is also
I don’t know what the ministers in the court thought, but no one tried to stop him. Could it be that after Sikong’s death, there were only subservient people left in the court?”
Speaking of Zhang Xi, Kong Rong's expression darkened.
He already knew the news of Zhang Xi's death and felt very guilty. He went to scold Zhang Xi, just to wake him up and cure the disease and save the patient. As a result, the patient died instead of curing the disease, which was really frustrating.
On the way here, he was thinking about how to take credit for Zhang Xi and make up for his mistakes. Now that he heard Mi Heng's accusations against the ministers of the DPRK, he felt even more uncomfortable and felt that he had a heavy responsibility.
"The emperor lost his parents when he was young. He grew up in Nangong and neglected education. He also encountered troubled times and did not understand the meaning of the scriptures. It is inevitable that some absurdities are inevitable. Now that the world is stable, it is an opportunity for tutoring." Kong Rong said in a heavy tone. "Zhengping, you and me.
You cannot use force to stabilize a country, you must use culture to promote education."
Mi Heng sat up straight, nodded solemnly, cupped his hands and said, "That's right, you and I can encourage each other."
Kong Rong also solemnly returned the gift, and for a moment he felt like heroes cherishing each other.
At this time, a chuckle came from outside the car. "It's really not easy to see such shameless people these days."
Mi Heng was furious. He opened the curtain and saw two young men riding horses going in the same direction as them, turning their heads and looking at him with disdain.
"What did you say?" Mi Heng was furious. "Are you polite when you eavesdrop on others?"
"I didn't eavesdrop." The young man who was closest to him shrugged, and his voice was that of the person who just spoke. "You guys are so loud, I can't even think about not listening. Besides, who wants to hear your nonsense? You are so dirty."
