Chapter 429 Visit(1/2)

Yang Fan took a sip of tea and said confidently: "I have a plan that not only can these aristocratic families spit out all the money, but if the operation is done properly, it can also make the aristocratic family mute eat coptis chinensis. But you must cooperate with your Majesty and Uncle Cheng to act."

Hearing this, Li Shimin was so excited that he said anxiously: "As long as he can break the monopoly of the aristocratic family, I will agree."

Cheng Yaojin and Fang Xuanling also patted their chests and promised to cooperate with each other.

Yang Fan nodded and said, "The reason why aristocratic families are so rampant is that they have mastered the orientation of public opinion and culture, and even the imperial examination books provided by them."

"As long as we establish an institution to guide the public opinion of the people and use new imperial examination textbooks, these aristocratic families can destroy their own martial arts."

"If these aristocratic families do not have the support of the people, they will be like rootless duckweeds, and you can pinch whatever you want."

After hearing this, Fang Xuanling's eyes lit up and he exclaimed: "This method is really wonderful. It's better for us than many."

Cheng Yaojin even patted his thigh and cheered: "My nephew is really a traitor. It's really bad, but I, Cheng, like it."

Hearing this, Yang Fan was so depressed. Is this praise or harming others?

His Majesty Li Er also agreed and smiled and said, "This is really an excellent idea. It's a pity that I want to re-activate the imperial examination books, which cannot be completed in a short time. It will take at least a few years."

"In addition, what is the name of the newly established organization and how to guide public opinion? Will it be too complicated?"

Yang Fan was speechless, rolled his eyes and said, "Where is this complicated? The imperial examinations are all interpretations of the Four Books and Five Classics. In fact, it is not complicated. Just a simple annotation is enough."

"I heard that Kong Yingda, Yan Shigu, Sima Caizhang, Wang Gong, Wang Yan and others have basically completed the review of the draft, so they can be used as reference books for the imperial examinations."

"It is easier to set up a new department to guide public opinion. I call it the Ministry of Information. The role of this department is a window to explain the imperial examination reform or the court's policies."

"As long as there is something that the people don't understand, we can ask the great scholars to write articles on it and then publish them to various prefectures and counties."

"Your Majesty strictly ordered local officials to arrange storytellers to explain the content they wrote so that the people will not blindly follow the aristocratic family. It only takes a few years to break the monopoly of the aristocratic family."

In fact, the method Yang Fan mentioned was based on the news from later generations and the imperial examinations of the Song Dynasty.

I remember that during the Song Dynasty, Confucianism was the only one respected by the Song Dynasty, and the imperial examination was used as the model version of the imperial examination using the four books annotated by Zhu Xi.

Although later generations have mixed praises and low overall evaluations, the Song Dynasty was able to become the peak period of the imperial examinations.

For the current Tang Dynasty, there are many references.

Moreover, Confucianism mainly educates loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. The Four Books and Five Classics reflect the doctrine of Confucianism and has many advantages.

Of course, Yang Fan’s purpose is not to make future students become a group of sheep and further imprison the scholar’s ​​thoughts.

Instead, I want to choose a subject by civil and military officials, break the monopoly of the aristocratic families over books.

His Majesty Li Er couldn't help but say embarrassedly: "Kong Yingda and the others are all stubborn. I once wanted them to interpret and finalize the Four Books and Five Classics as soon as possible, but Kong Yingda always rudes off on the grounds that the annotation is too simple, saying that it will take at least two or three years to complete!"

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Yang Fan was speechless.

Not only did the aristocratic family not dump his debts, but there was no way to even take advantage of the old stubborn people like Kong Yingda, but this emperor was also too frustrated!

But since it has been proposed, how could Yang Fan stand it for two or three years?

So he volunteered and said, "Let me do this, I'll visit Kong Yingda first to see how the translation of these books are. If it is available, we will use this as a reference book directly."

"If I have not finished the interpretation, I can also help make some simple annotations. As the Minister of Rites, I think no one will object to the annotation of some of the Scriptures."

Fang Xuanling asked in disbelief: "Can your virtuous nephew interpret the Four Books and Five Classics?"

Yang Fan did not answer positively, but smiled and said, "If the annotations from Kong Yingda and the others are not available, I'll try again!"

The reason why I dare to be so sure is that I have the system in my hand.

If it really doesn't work, just exchange it out some insights on the Four Books and Five Classics.

His Majesty Li Er obviously didn't believe it very much.

The meaning of the saint is not something you, a young boy, can do.

However, Li Er did not criticize Yang Fan's enthusiasm. More importantly, he wanted to see Yang Fan's appearance of fighting, so he did not raise any questions on the spot.

Cheng Yaojin, who was standing by, couldn't help but interrupt: "Even if the problem of paper and imperial examination books is solved, what should I do with pen and ink? You can't rob it, right?"

Yang Fan said in a narrative manner: "This is easier. Now Tubo has already belonged to the territory of my Tang Dynasty. There are countless cows and sheep everywhere, and there are countless cows and wools. The brushes made of these cows and wools are not only durable, but also cheap. I had already sent a message to the workshops there for full production. It won't take long to use the continuous brushes as much as they want."

"And I know that a method of producing ink is the main raw material of charcoal. Not only is the output large, but the cost is also cheap. Those families cannot compete with us at all."

Hearing that Yang Fan was thinking in every way, one by one, Li Er couldn't help but scream again.

I really don’t know how this guy’s head is. It seems that all the difficulties can be solved in his hands. It’s so amazing!

Yang Fan had planned the construction workshop in Tubo. Didn’t this kid have already started to plot against the aristocratic family?

Fortunately, this kid is his son-in-law, otherwise Li Er would have been a little worried about such a guy.

However, Li Er was still happy about Yang Fan's construction of a workshop in Tubo.

This not only allows the income of the Turkish people, but also further binds the economic lifeline of Tubo to the Tang Dynasty, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.

Moreover, Tubo cattle and wool are everywhere, and even major families cannot find such cheap raw materials.

Thinking of the dusty appearance of these aristocratic families in the future, Li Er smiled rarely, and his eyes looked at Yang Fan became more and more satisfied. This kid is really a blessing in the empire!

So he couldn't help asking: "Then tell me who will be responsible for the newly established department and who else is needed. Just speak out, and the court will definitely cooperate with you."

After thinking about it, Yang Fan said: "I will be responsible for the early stage. Your Majesty is the final reviewer. I would like to invite Kong Yingda, Yan Shigu and other great scholars as contributors of the News Department. This will not only intimidate the aristocratic families, but also convince students all over the world."

Although Yang Fan decided to compete with the aristocratic families, the power of these aristocratic families was too large, and Yang Fan was not sure, so he could only find some helpers.

When His Majesty Li Er was depressed when he heard these people Yang Fan wanted!

These people can not even throw the bills as the emperor, and it will not work if they want to force the order.

So Li Er said embarrassedly: "Originally, the court would have fully cooperated with these things, but these people did not move at all, so you can only invite them..."

Li Er blushed a little!

I just swear to say whatever I want, but the slap in the face came too quickly.

Yang Fan curled his lips and said, "If you can't do it, please stop bragging...Okay, it's not time to go, let's take action separately."

Although Li Er was despised by Yang Fan, he was not angry. These irrelevant trivial matters were completely worth mentioning compared to the surprises he received today.

...

The Imperial College was the highest institution of learning and education management institution in ancient times.

Emperor Wu of Jin, Sima Yan, first established the Imperial College, and was changed to the Imperial College by Emperor Yang of Sui.

In terms of functions, in addition to "learning", Imperial College has added the power of "supervision", that is, "management".

During the Tang Dynasty, Imperial College was the national education management institution and governed its Imperial College, Imperial College, and four schools. Each of them had a doctorate, and one person was responsible for the management.

The chief official of the Imperial College is the Imperial College, and the level is the third rank. The courses are offered in the Imperial College, the Imperial College, the Four Sects, the Laws, the Books, and the Six Scholars.

The teacher-student ratio is about one to twenty, and the students are mainly children of officials of different levels and common people, with about three thousand students.

There are a very small number of students in the source of students, and what should be paid more attention to is that there are hundreds of overseas students, including Fusang, Silla, Goryeo and other countries.

Therefore, Imperial College can be regarded as an international academic institution during the Tang Dynasty.

As the Imperial College Priest, Kong Yingda can be said to be a disciple of all over the world, and his influence in the Shilin can be seen.

As the leader of the Imperial College, Kong Yingda still relishes his business as usual.

In the Imperial College Office, Kong Yingda stroked his gray beard with one hand and read a book with relish in the other hand.

After a while, I concentrated on my thoughts, and then suddenly realized that I was obviously immersed in the sea of ​​books.

The room was very simple, and there was not much decoration except for a book and some pens, ink, paper and ink.

There is a porcelain bottle on each side of the corner of the wall, and a bunch of red plums is inserted obliquely, and the faint fragrance spreads, adding a sense of pride to this simple and humble house.

A charcoal stove was burning on the eucalyptus table, and the fire was booming. A black-brown porcelain pot was placed on it. The water in the pot kept ringing, and the fragrance of tea rose with the steam.

Opposite Kong Yingda, there was an old man over 50 years old, sitting leisurely beside the eucalyptus, as if waiting for the rich tea in the pot.

In the quiet room, there was only the sound of tea in the pot and the rustling sound of Kong Yingda flipping through the booklets.

What a harmonious scene with a calm and clear mind, a peaceful and far-reaching scene.

When the tea fragrance filled the entire room, the old man took out a set of white porcelain tea sets from the eucalyptus and skillfully poured tea.

It seems that this is not the first time the old man has been here.

Although this person looks a little old-fashioned, his movements are elegant and swift.

After a moment, a quiet fragrance of tea filled the simple pay-off room.

Kong Yingda sniffed his nose, looked at the teacup on the eucalyptus table, gently put down the booklet in his hand, clamped it with a bookmark, and placed it on the other end of the eucalyptus table.

Since the book is closed, there are five large characters written on the cover - "Yang's Enlightenment".

Carefully picking up the tea cup, Kong Yingda leaned over her lips and took a sip, squinted her eyes and praised: "The mouth is warm and smooth, the lips and teeth are fragrant, refreshing, it is indeed the best tea in the world. I cannot live without this tea in this life!"

The old man disagreed and said proudly: "Brother Chongyuan is such a bad word. The method of making tea is the precision of the technique, while cooking tea requires the control of the heat."

"Although this tea is good, if it is not carefully cooked, it cannot fully show its mellow fragrance. If it is cooked randomly, it can only quench its thirst!"

Hearing this, Kong Yingda burst into laughter. This old friend's talent is definitely the best.

His reputation in the Shilin can be regarded as a master of literary world, and there are very few people in the world who can compare with it.

Generally, people with abilities have a strange temper. This old friend is like this. His arrogant and conceited personality is as famous as his talent.
