Chapter 338 End of Reform

"The so-called cultural reform is to allow every common people to have the opportunity to learn, and at the same time increase the subjects of study. We are not limited to simply writing poems and compositions, but must cultivate talents in an all-round way. Talents like Master Lu are the best

Our final request."

Li Jiancheng's idea is not small. Scholars in ancient times were basically descendants of clans or declining clans.

The descendants of the clan have a good foundation. First of all, there must be seniors who are well-read in poetry and books in the clan, which is very convenient for educating future generations. Secondly, they also have an economic foundation. How can they get books without money? Maybe some aristocratic families have their own collection of books, but this

How many aristocratic families can there be?

After all, there is no such high-tech printing technology as there will be in the future.

And those descendants of declining clans are even more eager to study. Because what they often pursue in their hearts is to regain the glory of their ancestors.

As for ordinary people, if there are no major changes, they will basically spend their entire lives working from sunrise to sunrise. This has to be said to be a kind of sadness!

"So, for the sake of talents from all walks of life, we will not only pursue Confucianism in the Tang Dynasty. We will let the hundreds of schools of thought from the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods reappear and create an unprecedented cultural holy land."

"Well!"

Shocked by Li Jiancheng's great idea, Pei Ji and others, as well as Li Shimin and Li Xiuning who heard Li Jiancheng's thoughts for the first time, were all a little shocked. How far can a person reach such a grand goal?

In this way, they felt that Li Jiancheng was even more invisible.

Looking at Li Jiancheng's appearance, it seemed that he still had something to say. Everyone held their breath and pricked up their ears to listen. Today's experience was comparable to their previous experiences.

They vaguely felt that Li Jiancheng's thoughts seemed to be much more than that.

"Promoting various schools of thought is only the first step, but it is also the most important step. For a long time, Confucianism has imprisoned people's thinking and kept people stagnant, so it is imperative to break the dominance of Confucianism."

"Your Highness, if this happens, die-hard Confucianists led by Kong Siying and others will definitely object strongly." Pei Ji said with some worry.

Pei Ji, Tang Jian, Liu Hongji, Dou Wei and some ministers in the court, although they were members of the clan, were also influenced by Confucianism. However, their minds were more open-minded, so they were exposed to more ideas, such as military thought and Mohist thought.

etc., they have all been exposed to it, so they don’t have much objection to Li Jiancheng’s proposal of “letting a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend”.

But Kong Siying and others are different.

They have been born to accept Confucianism, and all they have in their minds is Confucianism. They believe that except for Confucianism, which is orthodox, all others are evil heretics and must be attacked.

In today's imperial court, there are many Confucian diehards like Kong Siying, which is why Pei Ji is so worried.

Li Jiancheng's eyes flashed coldly, and he said in a solemn tone: "If they have no objection, then forget it; if they want to hinder the progress of Datang, then don't blame me for being rude. No one can stop Datang from going forward.

Further ahead, anything that stops Datang from advancing will be our enemy!"

Pei Ji and the others couldn't help but tremble. At this moment, they saw another side of Li Jiancheng.

When he said those words before, Li Jiancheng exuded some grandmaster aura. Although Pei Ji and a few others had been on the battlefield with Li Yuan, they had only come into contact with ordinary soldiers. How could they have seen anyone with the strength of Li Jiancheng?

Therefore, after just a face-to-face meeting, several people were shocked by Li Jiancheng's momentum and were sweating profusely.

At this moment, they truly surrendered to Li Jiancheng, and they surrendered from the bottom of their hearts.

They have seen Li Jiancheng's wisdom and scheming. Now that they have seen Li Jiancheng's strength, they understand that Li Jiancheng will be a man like the overlord Xiang Yu, except that he is much smarter than Xiang Yu. Perhaps he is like Qin Shihuang,

A figure of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, or a figure beyond the two.

Li Jiancheng leaked the grandmaster's momentum, which was naturally intentional.

His various reforms are naturally carefully selected from previous lives. They may be a bit advanced for people today, but they are definitely beneficial policies.

He knew that Li Yuan would not object to his proposals. There was an invisible tacit understanding between father and son that was unspoken. And Li Shimin, Li Xiuning and others would naturally not object to him.

The ones in question were the ministers in the court, and the leaders were naturally the founding fathers Pei Ji and others.

Although it is Li Yuan who ultimately decides everything, helpers are still necessary. If you have to do everything yourself, Zhuge Kongming's mistakes have already taught future generations a lesson.

As Pei Ji and others' right-hand man, it is naturally best to get their consent. Only in this way can the decree be implemented well, which will be beneficial to the development of the Tang Dynasty. But now, his efforts have indeed paid off.

It can be seen from the looks on several people's faces that they have already made a decision in their hearts.

Since these heroes agree, there is nothing to fear from the remaining ministers. At least, many ministers in the court want to see the direction of the wind, and as Li Yuan's right-hand man, Pei Ji and the others are good guides.

"Haha!" Li Jiancheng laughed loudly and looked at a few people with an indomitable momentum in his eyes. "With the help of these adults, there will definitely be a few names in the [Celebrity List] in the future."

"[List of celebrities]?"

Upon hearing the new term, several people had doubts on their faces.

"[The List of Famous Scholars] and [The Pavilion of Famous Generals] are very similar, except that one is for military generals and the other for civil servants. How many of you understand?" Li Jiancheng chuckled and looked at the group of people.

After hearing Li Jiancheng's words, Pei Ji and the others suddenly breathed much heavier.

In the early days of the court, Li Jiancheng proposed the idea of ​​"Famous Generals' Pavilion", which made many civil servants feel aggrieved. They had always despised military generals. Now, military generals are famous throughout the ages, and their descendants enjoy the treatment of being raised by the court, but these self-proclaimed civil servants do not receive such treatment.

Wouldn't it be a hard slap on their face?

The most important thing is that they naturally hope to be famous throughout the ages and to honor their ancestors.

And now, hearing that civil servants were treated in this way, Pei Ji and others were naturally very excited. They didn't have to give up money and power, but they couldn't give up their reputation for eternity.

After getting excited, Pei Ji and others knelt down on the ground in unison, and said loudly: "I should do my best to create a prosperous Tang Dynasty with Your Majesty and His Royal Highness."

"Haha, I can feel your thoughts, so let's work hard together." Li Yuan also said happily, and everyone around him could feel his excitement.

As a founding emperor, that is naturally an honor.

The few people talked in detail again, carefully considering Li Jiancheng's proposal and pondering it again and again, without showing signs of fatigue. It wasn't until the eunuch shouted that the few people realized that the noon time was approaching, so Pei Ji and others waited at Li Yuan's invitation

Next, after enjoying the craftsmanship of the imperial chef, we walked collectively to the main hall.

The proposals discussed by several people were put forward without any suspense, the economic reforms were passed one by one without any suspense, and the next step was the cultural reform.

However, after Li Jiancheng proposed it, there was strangely no opposition.

After observing Kong Siying, I saw that he had his eyes closed tightly and did not react at all from his position. The ministers who believed in Confucianism and were prepared to follow Kong Siying to oppose Li Jiancheng's proposal all stopped. From then on, the culture

All reforms were passed without any doubts.

From beginning to end, Kong Siying didn't say a word.

Everyone, including Li Jiancheng and others, found it incomprehensible that Kong Siying, who had been fighting with Li Jiancheng in the morning, did not say a word in the afternoon? It is quite intriguing.

However, it is also a happy thing that the reform can be passed so smoothly.

Today's court meeting ended successfully under Li Jiancheng's drastic reforms, and it was also Li Jiancheng's first court meeting. Li Jiancheng only proposed these reform proposals, and the specific details need to be implemented by various departments, so they cannot be implemented immediately.

.

However, these matters are not within Li Jiancheng's control. He is only responsible for making suggestions, and what to do has nothing to do with him.

If anyone knew what he was thinking, they would definitely despise him. As a prince, he only thinks about how to evade responsibility. It is really unacceptable.
