Can the people make it impossible to know it?

When Li Pojun heard Li Shimin say this, he raised his eyebrows at the moment, and said with a smile: "Father also thinks that although the imperial examination system can have an impact on the family, it can't pry the foundation, but there is a thing here for the child, which has a fatal impact on the family, I don't know if my father is interested?"

Li Shimin laughed when he heard it, pointed at Li Pojun and said with a smile: "You son, how can you speak wildly."

When Li Pojun heard this, he raised his neck and said: "Don't care if the child speaks wildly, father, what do you say, how is cultural knowledge disseminated?"

Li Shimin was stunned when he heard this, "Carrier? Books huh? ”

Li Pojun actually arrogantly slapped a guest dog, raised his eyebrows and said: "However, the Four Books and the Five Classics are all spread through books, so if the child can produce books in large quantities and the cost is extremely low, does my father think that this is likely to make the family break their bones?"

When Li Shimin heard this, his eyes suddenly widened, "What? Mass-produced books? ”

After that, he looked at Li Pojun again, and asked in a deep voice, "Tell me carefully."

Li Pojun was overjoyed when he saw this, and said bluntly: "When I was a child reading miscellaneous books such as the Mo family, miscellaneous families, and peasant families, I thought of a method, called movable type printing, according to this method, you can print a large number of books, and the cost is low, a set of molds can be reused, a set of molds, if the materials are enough, hundreds of sets of "Analects" can be printed overnight."

Li Shimin couldn't calm down when he heard this, and asked Li Pojun in shock: "Is there really such an artifact?" Do that, come quickly."

This kind of movable type printing is to fire the cement into a blank with the same specifications, and engrave the reverse character at one end, and the height of the protrusion of the character is like the thickness of the edge of the copper coin, and it is hardened by fire to become a single movable type of cement. In order to meet the needs of typesetting, there are several or even dozens of commonly used words in order to be used when repeated in the same edition. If you encounter an uncommon word, if you are not prepared in advance, you can use it as you go.

In order to facilitate the selection of words, the cement movable type is classified according to the rhyme and placed in the wooden lattice, and the paper strip is pasted to indicate it. When typesetting, a framed iron plate is used as the bottom support, and a layer of agent made of pine resin, wax and paper ash is coated on top, and then the required cement movable type is picked out and arranged into the frame one by one. Fill a frame to become a version, and then bake it with fire, wait for the agent to melt slightly, use a flat plate to flatten the literally, and after the medicine cools and solidifies, it becomes a version. When printing, as long as the ink is brushed on the plate, covered with paper, and a certain amount of pressure is added.

In order to be able to print continuously, two iron plates are used, one version is brushed, the other is typeset, and the two plates are used alternately. After printing, the potion is roasted with fire, and the movable type can fall off the iron plate with a slight shake of the hand, and then put it back into the original wooden grid according to the rhyme, so as to be used again next time.

In this way, printing books is very fast and convenient, and the efficiency is extremely high, and in the future, there will be more books printed, and the people will have books to read.

Li Pojun said in one breath with great interest, looking at Li Shimin excitedly, looking forward to Li Shimin's excited expression, but Li Shimin frowned and thought deeply after listening to it.

"Father, how? Isn't this a brilliant method? Li Pojun asked curiously, very puzzled in his heart, how did he react like this, as soon as the printing technology came out, books became common, and the people had books to read, so the advantage of the family in mastering knowledge was weakened, how did he react like this.

How do you know that after Li Shimin was interrupted by Li Pojun's deep thought, he glared at Li Pojun back to his senses, slapped the desk and said angrily: "Hmph, wonderful, confused, in this way, what you are prieing is not the foundation of the family, but the death of my Li Tang royal family."

Li Pojun was stunned when he heard this, and his eyes were stunned, what, what, causing the royal family to die? How so?

Li Shimin also saw Li Pojun's confusion, and said straightly: "I don't know that the people can make it, but they can't make it know." Once the people are enlightened, they will all learn from Zhang Chu of Qin (the regime established by Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's uprising), and the Yellow Turban of Han, how can I survive in the Tang Dynasty".

Li Pojun was stunned when he heard this, the people can make it, but they can't make it known? This......

Is this the policy of fooling the people?

In his previous life, he had also heard this famous controversy, this sentence came from the "Analects of Tabor", and there was a great controversy about the meaning of the sentence "the people can make it impossible to know it", and the reason why this controversy is important is because the meaning of the sentence is different, and the evaluation of Confucius's political thought is also different.

Since there are no broken sentences in ancient Chinese, people have different understandings of the meaning of this sentence according to the habits of modern Chinese and according to different broken sentences.

The people may let it be done, but they cannot know it.

This sentence has a long history, and it was used to attack Confucius during the Cultural Revolution.

When the ancients interpreted "the people can make it, but they can't make it known", they generally interpreted it positively.

This means that we can let the people follow the path we are directing, and there is no need for them to know why.

But Li Pojun always thinks that the correct sentence of this sentence is: the people can make it; No, let it be known.

This is the original intention of Confucius, because Confucius is a master of all ages, how could he put forward the policy of fooling the people, judging from Confucius's consistent proposition, Confucius did not approve of the policy of fooling the people.

Confucius was the first person in China to establish a private school, Confucius dedicated his life to the cause of education, Confucius had 3,000 disciples, 72 sages. "I have not tasted no teachings for self-cultivation", "I never tire of learning, and I never tire of teaching", how can people who say such things advocate the implementation of a policy of ignoring the people?

At that moment, Li Pojun was laughing, Li Shimin saw Li Pojun laughing nervously, and he also looked at him with a cold face, waiting for Li Pojun's words, it is estimated that if Li Pojun did not convince Li Shimin's remarks this time, then he would suffer.

I saw Li Pojun laugh and say loudly: "Fallacy, big fallacy."

Seeing Li Shimin's cold face and unkind expression, Li Pojun didn't dare to pretend to be 13.

coughed a few times, and hurriedly said: "The people can make it, let it be; You can't make it, you know it. It means that the people, if they can be appointed, let them obey the command; If not, let them be reasonable.

Or: Can the people do it? No. It can be known. Does it mean that the people can let it go? No. It is still necessary to educate". Saying that, Li Pojun shook his head and shook his head, quite a scholarly demeanor.

How do you know that Li Shimin on the other side is listening to a staggering sound, this ...... The famous words of Confucius, which have not changed for thousands of years, have been understood like this for thousands of years, and they are ...... There is still such an understanding.

But...... But it seems to make a little bit of sense.

It is also a pity that Li Shimin is not Kong Yingda, and stubborn old men such as Li Gang did not scold Li Pojun for deviating from the norm at the first time, and he is worthy of being a generation of heroes, so he immediately calmed down and thought about Li Pojun's words.
