If this Xu Jiu is really just a boss who has crossed the slave smuggling syndicate.

Then, Liu Che didn't need to come to see him in person at all.

Not to mention, it's so mysterious.

What really moved Liu Che was a book he had recently concocted.

The name of the book is "The Wealth of the People".

It seems to be just a title that deviates a little from the mainstream, but it's not a big deal.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, hundreds of schools of thought contended.

The sages explored almost every possible path.

Among them, Guan Zhong, Confucius, and Mencius all discussed the problem of enriching the people.

Even Mencius put forward such a slogan as 'the people are important, and the king is light'.

It's just that the statements in this book "People's Wealth" are very different from the treatises of Confucius, Meng, Guan Zhong, Yiyin and others.

Although there are still many clichés of the Confucianism and Huang Lao schools.

But it uses a dialectical approach to illustrate the problem.

In the first part of this book, "The Essence and the End", it is very dialectical to discuss the problem of the essence and end of the agriculture and industry -- for the peasants: agriculture and mulberry are the foundation, and the tourism industry is the end; For craftsmen: use-oriented, skillful decoration is the end; For merchants: circulation is the foundation, and Juqi is the end.

Although the ideas in this book are still quite immature, the methods of discussing the problems are also somewhat contradictory.

But only in this respect.

Undoubtedly, a huge step forward.

It's a kind of sublimation, a kind of evolution!

You must know that before this, no matter how Confucianism and Huang Lao, his attitude towards the problem of the end was rigid and rigid.

Basically, they all think. Everything is inferior, only agriculture is high.

It is the good people who farm the land. Food is the foundation of everything.

What kind of gold, pearls, jade, businessmen, craftsmen, all corrupt the social atmosphere. The garbage that affects the Saint King's education needs to be disposed of.

Under the influence of this trend of thought, the historical Eastern Han Dynasty even abolished coins for a time and relied on barter as a means of trade.

However, this book "The Wealth of the People" is the first treatise in Liu Che's impression to dialectically analyze the problem of the end and the end.

This is naturally excellent.

It's just that......

Those who are half a step ahead of the world are geniuses, and those who are one step ahead are called madmen.

Compared with the current conservative social opinion circles, the problem of this "People's Wealth" is very eye-catching.

Liu Che dared to pack the ticket.

As long as the book spreads, more people will read it. Finally seen by those giants.

It must be a tsunami of public opinion!

The factions of Confucianism, the first one will not let it go!

Dong Zhongshu and Hu Wusheng are both brothers who govern the Ram Spring and Autumn Period, but now the two of them have a tendency to not get along with each other because of a little difference in philosophy.

In history, Hu Wusheng's disciple Gongsun Hong even caught his uncle and beat him wildly without any scruples, trying every means to kill Dong Zhongshu!

And the Guliang faction and the Ram faction are both popular branches in the Spring and Autumn Period.

But. They have been in love with each other for hundreds of years.

But wherever the Guliang faction is strong, the scholars of the Ram faction will be excluded to the point where there is no room for survival.

Vice versa.

Confucianism has never been soft on the dispute over the Great Dao.

their internal contradictions. They can all punch each other's dog brains.

For other schools, there is even more zero tolerance.

Why did Confucius kill Shao Zhengmao?

Why couldn't Mencius tolerate Xu Xing?

Liu Che always remembered what the master father had told him at the beginning. When he was a teenager, he was excluded, suppressed and humiliated by Confucian scholars in Linzi, Qi State.

You must know that the Zongheng faction is also one of the Warring States University factions. It was also once beautiful.

Legalism and Huang Lao, although relatively tolerant.

But Liu Che felt. If they can wait to see those insights in this "Rich People", then they will be called ghosts!

In particular, there is a core exposition in this book "Enriching the People", that is, "the country is based on enriching the people", and the subsequent exposition of the end is based on this tone.

This is simply stepping on the sore spot of the Legalists!

You know, there is a core of Legalism.

It is called 'the teaching of the best of the earth', whether it is Shang Ying, or Shen Buxian, or Han Feizi, they all expound their own ideological systems around this sentence.

The most important thing is ......

At the end of this "Rich People", a group ridicule was released......

It is written: In today's world, there are few cures and many floating eaters. To be favored by clever ornaments, to get rich with Juqi, and to travel to the end of the chaotic country, it is very sad! When the husband and the princess are the marquis, they work hard for the people, and when they take the people lightly, they can be indignant!

I'll it!

After reading it, Liu Che only had one feeling: the blow of this ridicule almost wiped out other Han magnates, lords and systems other than the emperor.

Although it tells the truth!

But to tell the truth, you have to lose your head.

Because of this, Liu Che started to love talent and decided to come forward and protect it.

"Xu Jiu......" Liu Che opened his mouth slightly and said, "Don't you have a lot of guts......

"Chen Jiu is guilty!" Xu Jiu obediently knelt in front of Liu Che, bowed his head and bowed: "I beg Your Majesty to punish the crime!" ”

Chu Da next to him also knelt down and kowtowed and said, "Sinner minister Chu Da, please see Your Majesty......"

Liu Che shifted his gaze slightly, looked at the cadre of the Ram Sect, his eyes moved slightly, and asked, "What is the name of the tenth chapter of the Analects of Chu Da......?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty......" Chu Da didn't dare to raise his head, and said in a low voice: "Township Party ......" When he said these two words, Chu Da's voice was almost inaudible.

"Good!" Liu Che asked with a smile: "Confucius is in the township party, and he seems to be a person who can't speak." In the temple and the imperial court, he said that he was only careful. What do you mean? ”

"The minister is guilty!" Chu Da was embarrassed to completely retract his head into his neck, at this moment, he just wanted to find a hole to get into.

Liu's family, in addition to loyalty and filial piety, is the most respectful of the 'township party's training'.

The core of the township party training, in the Han Dynasty, consists of two parts.

One is the three elders, and the other is the township school.

In the twelfth year of Emperor Taizong's filial piety, he once issued an edict to the world: filial piety, the great shun of the world. Litian is the foundation of life. The three elders are also the teachers of the people. Honest officials, the people's public expression. This is the second or third doctor's trip.

This fully shows that the emperor of the Han dynasty believed that filial piety, farming, three elders, and honest officials are the four virtues and characters that constitute the most worthy of admiration and respect in the world today.

The township school is the dojo of the three elders (the three elders are in charge of teaching), and it is also a sacred place of enlightenment and a source of knowledge dissemination.

At the same time, it is also a holy place considered by Confucianism (to be nourished, and to be virtuous, and to be sacred!). ）

"I don't care what grievances you have, why are you fighting in the township school!" Liu Che made a face. Said: "But since you dare to fight in the township school, you must bear the severe punishment of the law that comes from this!" ”

The two guys immediately attached their heads to the ground and did not dare to move.

Although they all knew that the Son of Heaven would definitely not punish them too harshly.

Even, maybe reuse!

Have you ever seen the emperor want to kill someone, and he wants to pull the guy he wants to kill to a remote place and deliberately reprimand him?

The emperor is not sick, so he will definitely not be so boring.

Then there is only one explanation left.

Your Majesty, there is a place to use them.

It doesn't matter what it is.

Chu Da and Xu Jiu both knew. And they earned it.

Of course, the attitude must still be correct, and we must sincerely admit our mistakes and review them deeply.

Thereupon. The two of them said in unison: "The sinner deserves death, please Your Majesty to condemn ......"

"You should thank the third old Yang Gong in East Erli!" Liu Che said lightly: "If it weren't for this public intercession, at this moment." You have already been thrown into the prison of Tingwei! ”

It was indeed after these two were arrested that the third elder in Dong Erli submitted a document requesting a lenient sentence to Neishi.

But. It's just going through the motions.

It is an instinctive reaction of an old man who wants to calm things down and not get into trouble by the way.

Liu Che took this to talk about it. Apparently deliberately making excuses for them.

"But the death penalty can be forgiven, but the living sin is unforgivable!" Liu Che took a step forward, looked at Chu Da, and said: "Chu Da, you are a Confucian, Confucian, Rouye, you should be a gentleman, but you don't care about the system, don't respect the training of the ancestors, don't worship the teachings of the township party, the court is public, you fight with people, and you are still in the township school!" Don't you hear it, Dazai said: Confucianism, win the people with the Tao! What you did not only insulted your teacher, but also insulted the teaching of the ancestors, destroyed the training of the township party, and made the first offense of Nian'er, and there were three elders to intercede, which was the teacher Zhongshu, and was respected by me, so he fell lightly! ”

"Go and transcribe the Analects, Rites, and Poems for me 500 times, and then go to Dongerli to teach Mengtong for a year!" Liu Che lowered his head and asked, "Are you convinced?" ”

When Chu Da heard this, he immediately bowed his head and bowed: "Your Majesty's admonition, if Huang Zhong Da Lu, and like the thunder of spring, make the guilty ministers wake up!" Your Majesty's Holy Judgment, the guilty subjects are convinced! ”

Chu Da's mood at the moment is happy.

The 'punishment' of the Son of Heaven seems to be a punishment.

But in Chu Da's opinion, this is a manifestation of the love of boxing!

Copying the Analects, rituals, and poems is to sharpen one's poetry and book literacy and strengthen one's heart to the Tao.

To punish Dong Erli to teach Meng Tong is to observe his own morality and integrity.

In history, when Ming monarchs and virtuous ministers met, there was generally such a script.

This made Chu Da really happy and couldn't help himself.

I just feel that in front of me, there is a smooth road and a bright future.

Promoted to become rich, married to the rich and beautiful, and reached the peak of life, it is just around the corner.

Where can he bother to think about anything else?

Immediately, he followed the two soldiers who escorted him, bowed his head respectfully, and exited the Zhifang step by step.

Liu Che looked at Chu Dayuan's back, and smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth.

In this way, for at least two or three months, Xu Jiu and the person behind him and the book "Fumin" should not appear in Dong Zhongshu's sight.

You must know that it is not a simple matter to transcribe the Analects, Rites, and Poems 500 times with a brush.

This is not a later generation of primary school students who complete their teacher's homework, where the handwriting can be scribbled and the paper can be contaminated.

The words must be clear and neat.

After thinking about it, Liu Che decided to add a little difficulty to Chu Da, so he instructed the drama Meng: "Order someone to tell Chu Da that he can only copy it in bamboo slips, and he is not allowed to use white paper ......"

Well, this decision may push back the exposure time of "Fumin" by at least another two months.

As for when the time comes, whether Chu Da still remembers what he once argued with Xu Jiu.

It depends on Chu Da's memory, whether he can be so powerful.

Liu Che felt that it was very likely that when the time came, Chu Da could only remember that he had argued with Xu Jiu and had made a move, but the specific process was hehe.

Wait until Chu Da completely disappears into the Zhifang.

Liu Che looked at Xu Jiu for a long time.

"Song Zihou ......" Liu Che curled the corners of his mouth and looked at this guy.

"Sinners listen to the hadith!" Xu Jiu immediately kowtowed.

There is no doubt that Liu Che knows very well that this Xu Jiu is a smart person.

And a very smart person.

Liu Che is now more than seventy percent sure that everything at present is a game laid out by this guy.

Liu Che had already suspected this from the beginning of knowing about this matter.

And the investigation report of the embroidered clothes guard and the information given by the imperial historian Yamen are also very consistent on the timeline.

Since the beginning of last year, Liu Che has passed edicts more than once, hinting at his political tendencies to the government and the opposition.

Since Jiazi's edict, Liu Che's attitude can even be said to be clearly shown to others.

Other edicts and statements at court meetings have clearly told these things to the ministers and princes.

Liu Che has been waiting, waiting for a courtier who takes the initiative to get closer and kneel and lick to appear.

Unfortunately, I haven't seen any movement.

This made Liu Che's Qianjin City Horse Bone Plan like hanging in the air, which made him not embarrassed.

Fortunately, there are many smart people.

Liu Che had already faintly heard that many princes and eunuchs were conducting targeted research.

For example, the famous Wan Shi Jun Shi Fen's family or something.

But Liu Che didn't expect that the first person to jump out to eat crabs was Song Zihou, who was inconspicuous and ranked first from the bottom. (To be continued.) )
