Chapter 902 (1/2)
Li Hong naturally knew that his idea was too idealistic. However, he always had to step forward step by step in order to know where the next problems would appear and how to solve them.
However, if such a situation is maintained, recommendation and imperial examination coexist. Although recommendation will be replaced sooner or later in history, the development pace of the Tang Dynasty is very fast. If this aspect can not keep up with it, it is likely that after the glory of the Tang Dynasty, it will return to the origin, and even there will be a certain historical process retrogression.
Therefore, if we want to keep the wheel of history from receding, we must allow the big families to set up private schools, and the government should vigorously set up schools, so as to ban on a large scale and completely eliminate the momentum of ”five surnames and seven hopes”. Let them either decline or mingle in these private schools and schools, instead of the benchmark that scholars all over the world look up to.
Wu Mei also had her own ideas. For a time, Li Hong was very optimistic about the officials who came from famous families. She thought that their height in official work and the contact with them were much higher than those of poor scholars. However, it was not many years ago that Li Hong had to deny his decision at that time.
Even though he had not ascended the throne at that time, he still acted as a crown prince and vigorously promoted the decision-making in the official department after taking charge of the Shangshu province and becoming the order of Shangshu. But now he is already an emperor. When he rebelled and took the initiative to overthrow his own decision, did he not consider the face of an emperor who was eloquent and eloquent?
Li Hong shook his head and laughed. Then he raised his head and said, ”what's the face of the children's ministers compared with that of the imperial court? If you can do what you want, you won't care about face. Besides, you don't know... ”
”Yes, you are not only the most able to recite poetry and Fu in the world, but also the most cheeky emperor.” Wu Mei coldly looks at Li Hong helplessly sarcastic way.
Although she said that, she was still in favor of Li Hong's further reform in her heart after she made clear the ultimate goal of Li Hong.
”In your heart, Li Hong, the famous families and the scholar bureaucrats in the world are in your heart, so inferior to even the officials who passed the imperial examination?” After thinking about it, Li Zhi still felt that it was not reliable or reliable to put aside the scholar bureaucrats who could provide advice for the country and the country and govern the world together with the poor scholars.
In any case, although the Tang Dynasty is prosperous, prosperous and prosperous, his son's temperament is unpredictable, and his own decisions can be overturned. Who knows if, after a hundred years, without the supervision of himself and the empress, the court and the mountains will be more chaotic.
”In troubled times, there are heroes and princes. In the prosperous times, the monarchs and officials are obvious, and in the prosperous times, the monarchs and officials are corrupt. This is an unchangeable rule in history. Scholars in the world can be officials and profits, but it is better than famous families who restrict the court platform and interfere in the government for greater interests. What's more, just like the simple lyrics and songs sung by Ren Wenrong, the book of sages must be read in order to enable more people to read and read. However, some simple and easy to understand principles are much easier than the scholars and bureaucrats to enlighten the people's wisdom with their own understanding as a subset of classics and history annotated with their own understanding? ” Li Hong said with a smile.
”It's too idealistic to cultivate one's moral integrity, to govern the country and to make the world peaceful. There is no such person at all. After all, no one is perfect. What's more, those scholar bureaucrats, famous scholars in famous families, who don't have a mess at home? Which one can really achieve self-cultivation and family harmony? In the class ideology, the class is maintained and rooted in their thoughts. The humble family is the same as the pariah in their eyes. However, in the eyes of the royal family and even the imperial court, in this prosperous Tang Dynasty, if according to their understanding, our royal family should make a legend for them in today's prosperous environment. What can we rely on? ” Li Hong shook his head helplessly. He knew very well that if he wanted to get around the literati class in this society and get to the bottom of the court politics and national policy system, he must bypass these middle strata and their interests, so as to make the stability of the royal family rooted in the people and seek the people's help. So long as the common people do not rebel, the scholar bureaucrats and famous families want to revolt It would be extremely difficult to stop the decision of the court.
”In ancient times, those who want to know virtue in the world first govern their country; those who want to govern their country first, their families; those who want to regulate their families, their bodies; those who want to cultivate their bodies, their hearts; those who want to correct their minds, they should first be sincere about their intentions; those who want to be sincere about their intentions, should first know their knowledge and know things. Then we can know the quality of things, then we can know the truth, then we will be sincere; if we are sincere, we will be upright in our mind; if we are upright in our mind, then we will cultivate ourselves; if we cultivate ourselves, we will be able to make our families even; if our families are Qi, then we will govern our country; if we govern our country, we will have a peaceful world. ”
”In other words, the words in the book of rites, frankly speaking, still lie in personal self-cultivation. But now look at the families of famous families, and then look at the royal family of Tang Dynasty, from the father's and mother's empress to the royal family's royal family. Except Li Xian, the royal family of our Tang Dynasty is no more harmonious than those famous families? Have we not gone to the front of their great Confucians and set a good example for the people of the world? ” Li Hong said finally, looking at Lizhi's sneer, he suddenly felt that he was talking a little bit baldly. He brought out Li Xian's father's heart disease again.
Sure enough, Li Hong didn't have the chance to talk like he did just now. Li Zhi and Wu Mei listened attentively. Instead, Li Zhi sneered at him and looked at Anxi with anguish.However, on the whole, this trip to Luoyang has completely deviated from Li Zhi's idea of rushing to Luoyang. Instead, it has become a tour for members of the royal family.
The horse drawn train stops when he wants to stop or walk. When he sees a mountain passing by the car, his father will order it to stop, and then he starts to visit the mountains and rivers.
From Chang'an to Luoyang, the Yellow River can not be bypassed either by the official road or by the horse drawn train running on the railway track at an unseen end.
