My country is dead again [Rebirth]

Today is December 26th, both Shen Ci and Yue Tingchuan have led their troops into Suifang, and there are still three days away from the capital. Others talk about it as a good thing that the army is back, and they won't be so full of heart Looking forward to it, but obviously Xie Ruzhuo is not like this.

He no longer wants to stay in Beijing.

I want to see Shen Ci soon.

But at this time, he was still in Yongning Palace listening to Du Ruo's talk about the reopening of the Imperial College. The husband had done his duty, and he was embarrassed to say that he hadn't actually heard a few words, so he had to put on a gentle smile to show his satisfaction.

"Hengchuan and Ningya have almost been taken back. Next summer, we can consider formally issuing an edict to reopen the Guozijian. When the eastern part of Hengchuan was taken back last year, I went to Hengchuan once. There are still many prefectural schools, state schools and counties in the local area. In other words, the imperial court can admit a group of year-old tribute students as in previous years, but since the Guozijian is newly opened, the number of places can be more than in previous years. Your Majesty can take advantage of next year and the year of the crown, and take back the happy events of Hengchuan and Ningya, and then choose another An tribute." Du Ruo still showed a spring-like smile, and talked to Xie Ruzhuo about the Guozijian in a leisurely manner, "I have another idea, I told your majesty before, now that the literary world is in decline, everyone is not interested in learning. , In fact, this is not a good thing for a country. Literati not only want to show their ambitions in the court, but also study articles and knowledge for a lifetime. If no one continues to explore these things, what else can we leave for future generations?"

Xie Ruzhuo had already flown thousands of miles away, but luckily he was used to pretending, putting on a dignified look can also deceive people, and he talked freely without any distraction: "What you say, Mr. , This is the reason why I still want to reopen the Imperial College as soon as possible. Although Dayu has always been more emphasis on literature than military, but in fact, now, it seems that there is no way to achieve military. There are not many teachers who can teach with peace of mind, so how can the students who teach them be better?"

"Those who can enter the official school should be the pillars of the country in the future, but in the past two years, we have rarely seen real insightful people. At the time when the Enke was opened, most of the final officials who had never entered the official school. Official school It is the face of the family and the country. It must not be lost. It must be prosperous. The students of government schools can't be so dull all the time. Sometimes I hope that the students can say some bad words, so that it can be seen that the young people's blood is not cold. The country needs young people like this, so that there will be hope in the future."

"Your Majesty can think this way, I am very pleased. Now the official school is indeed too dull. The court was chaotic a few years ago. Everyone has no ambition to study as before. They are very depressed. They feel that even if they enter the court, they will not have a bright future. Or maybe I think it’s more important to stand in a good team.” Du Ruo nodded, “If His Majesty really wants me to serve as a sacrifice to the Imperial College, I just want to change this situation and don’t want to see such a scene in the biggest official school. I want people of insight from all over the world to gather at Guozijian, with their own ideals and aspirations in mind.”

"They also need to be able to say what they want to say here, just like the previous forums, sometimes knowledge needs to be debated, and sometimes, good governance strategies are also debated in this way. So Chen Xiang will hold a seminar at the Imperial College at that time. Anyone can go up to the Daoist forum to invite people to discuss the Dao, and they can talk about anything without worrying about getting in trouble. Perhaps students can also discuss the Dao with their teachers, and they can even discuss with officials in the court. If this is true, Dayu’s There will be hope for both official and literary circles.”

This proposal is a bit bold, and Xie Ruzhuo thinks it is even more shocking to the world that he proposed to erase the signature selection. During the Taizu and Taizong periods, the Imperial College and government schools around the world had similar seminars and seminars, where students sat and discussed and spoke freely , Even if you criticize the political views of the imperial court, you will not be judged as a crime. On the contrary, many students are famous all over the world because of such things, and are admired by literati.

At that time, the Dayu literary world was proud of being daring to speak. Everyone could express their feelings and talk freely about national policies, and the emperor could also listen and understand, accepting those words that were not pleasant but were of great benefit to governing the country.

At that time, Dayu was thriving and prosperous.

Afterwards, Dayu's national situation took a sharp turn for the worse, year after year, there were no one who dared to speak in the court, and even the officials were involved in the chaos, and became the most useful weapon for the various factions. Don't look at the basis, but look at the interests, and the governments in various places have been declining again and again, and the students dare not speak anymore. Few of those who want to enter the court are really for the sake of the family, the country, and no one is willing to concentrate on learning. Later generations left the eternal article.

In fact, it’s not that Xie Ruzhuo couldn’t understand the later emperor’s rejection of the Lun Dao Society. It’s a good thing to have people who criticize state affairs, but sometimes it’s not necessarily a good thing if there are too many. The stability of a country is still inseparable from the word “control” in the end , The superior always has to have control over all affairs, and cannot let some things get out of control and go further and further away.Therefore, the most difficult part of the emperor's art is how to best "control", and the best choice is to retract freely. When to tighten the string in the hand, and when to relax it properly, is every emperor's lifetime. If you are working hard to do something, it may be a fatal mistake if you don't put it away in one place.

Therefore, Xie Ruzhuo couldn't help lamenting in his heart again: It's really hard to be an emperor, it's been hard for a lifetime, and it's going to be hard again in this life!God kill me!

"Sir's proposal is very good, and I also agree to hold such a discussion meeting. It is time to re-arouse young people's hearts to serve and save the country. I have lived in the temple with all my lovers for a long time, and I also need to listen to more different voices. "Xie Ruzhuo was exhausted after thinking about so many complicated things. He just wanted to let go of the challenge now and continue to talk to Du Ruo fluently, "But we still need to pay attention to the scale, students are not well-versed in the world, and they are easy to be used or incited. , become a tool of some people without knowing it. But I think Mr. should know how to control it, so I don't need to worry about anything."

Du Ruo understands the deep meaning of this, daring to speak is one thing, this is the blood and courage of young people, but if it is used by someone with a heart, it is also a terrible thing, and then it will turn around and bite the court, saying sternly: " I understand that I will pay attention to propriety, and if such a discussion meeting is really set up, I will set some rules and not cross the line."

Xie Ruzhuo thought that this matter should be finished, but seeing that Du Ruo didn't intend to leave yet, and he was too embarrassed to issue an order to expel the guests, he could only yawn boredly, pouted his lips slightly, and planned in his heart to tell the courtiers that he was sick again. Sneak out of the capital?

It seems that the emperor hasn't been sick for half a year. This doesn't fit the image of being weak and sick anymore. It's time to get sick in the cold weather.

Xie Ruzhuo, who had made up his mind, couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips and smiled, turned his head to see Du Ruo looking at him with a slight playfulness in his eyes, then coughed quickly, and said, "First, what else do you want to say, sir?" ?"

When Du Ruo first arrived, he felt that Xie Ruzhuo was mentally exhausted, and he looked like he was not interested. He thought it was because he was tired after a lot of things at the end of the past two days, and he didn't feel anything wrong after talking. Well, when the words were almost finished, Xie Ruzhuo's expression changed again and again, he was frowning and thinking about something, and after thinking about it for a while, he secretly laughed again - obviously he was not thinking about something serious.

According to Du Ruo's experience, this kind of changeable and unimaginable expression is usually inseparable from one person.

And this person is now on his way back to Beijing, and will meet soon.

But, His Majesty obviously couldn't wait any longer.

"I heard that General Shen is about to arrive in Lezhou." Du Ruo mentioned casually, "Should be able to enter Beijing on the 29th as I said before."

Xie Ruzhuo suddenly felt ashamed that the little Jiujiu in his heart had been seen through by others, his cheeks blushed unconsciously, and he whispered: "I, I am not thinking about General Shen..."

Du Ruo smiled and said: "I just happened to think of this and said it casually, and I didn't say that His Majesty was thinking about it."

It was only then that Xie Ruzhuo realized how stupid he was. There was no silver 300 taels here. His face turned red instantly and he almost bit his own tongue. evidence.

The more he thought about it, the more shy Xie Ruzhuo was unable to speak for a while, Du Ruo smiled again, and said: "Recently there is nothing to do in the court, Yuan Weng and the Sixth Department have already prepared the expenditure budget for next year, and officials from all over the country come forward Almost all those who came to Beijing to report on their duties have gone back, Song Zongbing heard that he will leave tomorrow, and go back to Wanyang for the New Year." He also had a smile in his eyes, looked at the blushing Xie Ruzhuo, and whispered meaningfully: "If Your Majesty wants to leave Beijing, it's not impossible."

Xie Ruzhuo didn't know when Du Ruo became like this, how could he be so used to teasing himself, he silently recited "respect the teacher and respect the way" several times in his heart, and finally smiled kindly at Du Ruo: "If that's the case, sir, go back first , I'm a little sick, maybe I've been tired recently, and I'll have the imperial doctor come and take a look later."

Du Ruo sensibly stood up and said goodbye, and said with concern: "Your Majesty is lucky to work hard for the country, but you must also take care of the dragon's body, so don't get sick often."

Xie Ruzhuo gritted his teeth and said word by word: "I don't often..."

Du Ruo shut up in time, saluted and withdrew, leaving Xie Ruzhuo to concoct a plan of how to pretend to be sick and slip out of the capital by himself.

So as soon as Du Ruo arrived home, news came out from the palace that His Majesty had suffered from the cold and was in poor health. Recently, all affairs in the court were handled by the cabinet and the supervisor of ceremonies, and he would not go to court before the first month.

All the ministers lamented that they thought that His Majesty had been in good health for the past six months, and had never been sick. They didn't expect it to be so bad. He won't be crowned until next year. Why is he so weak?

When He Xiaoman found out about this, Xie Ruzhuo had already arranged everything and fled away. He sent back a few playbooks that he didn’t know whether he had read or not. Wan Lian walked in, waved away the other people in the room, and said in a low voice: "Song Qianhu went to see Hua Yangjiao again in front of him. There are only two of them in the tea room on the second floor of Qingpingfang. Our people can't get in. , I didn’t hear all the words clearly, but I roughly heard that it was related to the military expenditure paid by the Ministry of Households to the four towns in northern Xinjiang.”

"Why is he still looking for Hua Yangjiao?" He Xiaoman threw away the memorial book in his hand angrily. He also heard about the military expenses, and he also knew that Song Qingge went to the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of War several times for this. Song Qinglai should be the elder brother However, one thing is another thing. Why didn't this person listen to him after he asked him dozens of times, "Where is Song Qinglai now?"

Seeing that the governor was quite angry, Wan Lian took a step back and said, "It's still in Qingpingfang, but Beizhen Fusi said that Song Qianhu will not go back, so he should go home directly."

He Xiaoman quickly flipped through these notebooks, they were nothing serious, he threw them on the table, and walked out, saying: "Take them all to Lin Fen, let him approve them, and then send them back to the cabinet. I probably won't come back tonight , don’t come looking for me.”

Wan Lian responded, but He Xiaoman had already gone far away, his footsteps were hasty, and he disappeared after a while.

The author has something to say: Xiao Xie: The frail and sick set can't be lost, and it has to be played until the picker quits.

There are no protagonists in the next two chapters. After finishing the parts of Xiao Song and Xiao Man, the sub-cp can basically come to an end. After two chapters, it will be the main cp, which is sweet.
