The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 2505 Council of Government

Sheng Boyuan retorted: "Confucius once criticized Zichan, saying that Zichan was like the mother of the people, who could feed her children but could not educate them. In fact, Confucius was saying that Zichan could only manage the people but could not educate them. Common people, Zichan is not a sage after all.”

"If everyone can educate the people, what should Confucius do? Being the mother of a child is already extremely great, why should we be picky? What's more, Zichan will not destroy the rural school. Confucius said that if someone says that Zichan is not a person of benevolence and righteousness, Sir, he doesn't believe it. Kong Sheng may not agree with all the policies of Zichan, but he highly agrees with the point that "Zichan will not destroy the rural schools." Yun replied.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, your Majesty, I believe that this hole cannot be opened. Once it is opened, there will be endless troubles!"

Fang Yun asked back: "So what if tens of thousands of people gather outside the palace gate?"

Sheng Boyuan froze on the spot, speechless.

The officials looked at Fang Yun blankly, and then realized why Fang Yun was not afraid of Sheng Boyuan's participation.

Sheng Boyuan has been using those people to surround the palace and government offices to attack Fang Yun, but Fang Yun used his spear to attack his shield. Now everyone will consider that since the people of the country have no place to talk, it is better to set up a controllable rural school. , or is it better to let them gather in front of the palace or government office?

Everything Sheng Boyuan said before was helping Fang Yun.

Cao De'an took a step forward, glanced at the officials, and said with a smile: "As you all know, everyone says that I am made of paper and clay, but today, I, this old piece of wood, have to stand up and tell the truth."

Baiguan smiled kindly.

Although the people did not understand Cao De'an, most officials still recognized Cao De'an. If Cao De'an had not used various means to contain Liu Shan, whether he had taken refuge in Liu Shan or completely opposed Liu Shan, it would have been more detrimental to Jingguo.

"I think Fang Xusheng's proposal is not only very reasonable, but also the general trend. As early as a few years ago, I have discussed this matter with my colleagues. The literary works are shining, the people's wisdom is gradually opening up, the number of scholars has doubled, and those new scholars have How to solve it? Not only did we not get the results at that time, but not only did the various countries find a solution, but even the elder of the Holy Court was at a loss. Today's proposal is a stroke of genius. "

"This matter seems simple, but if you think about it carefully, you will understand that our country, Jingguo, cannot tolerate so many scholars. So, instead of letting these scholars go and missing out on possible talents, it is better to include them in rural schools. , firstly, to make people have aspirations, secondly, to appease the people, thirdly, to select available talents, and fourthly, to ease conflicts.”

In the last sentence, Cao De'an said it very vaguely and did not clearly say what kind of contradiction was being alleviated, but the officials present all understood what kind of contradiction was being alleviated.

There are so many scholars and so few official positions. Over time, huge contradictions will inevitably form. You must know that most scholars study to be superiors and to obtain a higher status.

Rather than letting them gather together to pose a threat to the court, it is better to bring them under control.

After Cao De'an finished speaking, all the officials fell into deep thought, and many officials began to use up their talents to deduce and think.

Sheng Boyuan, the Minister of Rites, was also thinking hard, with a hint of shame occasionally flashing on his face.

Fang Yun quietly scanned the officials. The united front was not just talk. It was not only useful during wars, but could also play a role in various periods. However, many people forgot this method in many periods.

People from the new social strata must be included in the government's management. If they are suppressed for a long time or left to their own devices, sooner or later the country's foundation will be shaken.

It's fine if you can't see this outside the court. If you can't see it clearly inside the court, it's just a dead meal.

The House of Representatives must become the top priority of governance in the next few years, and its importance is no less important than the innovation of the law and the innovation of workers.

In a certain sense, or just talking about the stability and governance foundation of the country, the importance of mastering new social classes is no less important than the separation of planters from pure gatherers and hunters in primitive society. Yu differentiated from food producers into full-time pottery makers, full-time recorders, full-time managers, etc.

If most of the previous innovations had a foundation and were merely made public and institutionalized, then this time the Council of Government was the first of its kind among humans. The so-called restoration of rural schools was just an excuse.

All the officials present understood the real role and power of this council. It could never just provide a place for people and scholars to discuss government affairs.

I don’t know how much time passed, but Yang Xuwen, the Assistant Prime Minister, took a deep look at Fang Yun and said to the Empress Dowager: "I believe that the affairs of the Council of Government are the foundation of the country for thousands of years. In fact, those who follow it will prosper and those who go against it will perish. .Jing Guoruo If you can become a trend-setter, ZTE will have hope. If you fall behind, it will be too late. For the sake of the king, the country, and the people, I ask your Majesty and the Queen Mother to make a decision as soon as possible to avoid being taken advantage of by other countries and damaging the national destiny of our country. "

When Yang Xuwen mentioned the word "national destiny", many officials present were shaken and woke up as if from a dream.

Unable to hide smiles broke out on many people's faces.

The affairs of the Council of Government are the destiny of the country for Jingguo, and for scholars, they must involve the holy way!

Many officials looked at Fang Yun, unable to conceal their inner admiration.

After the inference just now, everyone realizes the importance of this council. This is a drastic change that can completely change the human class.

This kind of change, after a long period of brewing, can completely form a semi-saint!

It can even be said that as long as the Council of State is established in half of the countries, even if Fang Yun sits at home and eats, drinks and has fun, and does nothing, he will be promoted to a semi-saint in at most 40 to 50 years!

This is the leader of the human race, this is the model for all ages, and this is the path to self-creation.

However, the matter has not been completed, and the sainthood has not been determined, so the officials can't say it clearly.

The queen mother silently watched the reaction of the officials, instinctively raised her hand and held Jingjun's little hand.

Jingjun thought that the officials were happy, so he was happy too. He looked up at the queen mother with a childish smile, and found that the queen mother's face was serious, so he restrained his smile.

At a young age, he didn't quite understand why the queen mother was unhappy when it sounded like a great thing for Jingguo.

The queen mother sighed softly and finally realized where her uneasiness came from.

The people's will leads to the country's great fortune.

The national fortune is not just an illusory power, but also a kind of spiritual cohesion.

The reason why Liu Shan didn't dare to seize power too radically before was because of the influence of national destiny, and the reason why Liu Shan decided to leave was that he realized that national destiny had completely leaned towards Fang Yun.

Ever since Fang Yun became the left prime minister, the queen mother has been on guard, but her reason and feelings told her that Fang Yun was not that kind of treacherous minister and would not really kill the king to seize power, but she was still uneasy.

Until now, she realized that it turned out that national destiny had favored Fang Yun a long time ago, and even now, the national destiny of the royal family combined is not as strong as Fang Yun alone.

If national destiny is a gambler, then now it has completely bet on Fang Yun.

The queen mother lowered her head slightly, her heart full of unwillingness and powerlessness.
