After a few words, the sage sat back on the Dragon chair behind the imperial court and said, ”let the three of you come here today, but there is an important matter that we can only discuss with you three. It's out of my mouth and into your ears. Don't let it out! ”

The three brothers and sisters face a Su, in unison answer way: ”here.”

There were not many servants in the hall. After seeing the three strategies offered by Xue Lang, the sage drove them out, leaving only the ones he trusted most.

Seeing that the three men already understood what he meant, the sage took a look at the Chamberlain beside him. The Chamberlain immediately came forward, picked up the three manuscripts and handed them out to the three men.

The sage said, ”the first and the second, just take a look at it. Today, you three are here for the third.”

The prince's hand is the third, the first in the hands of the king of Qin, the second in the hands of Princess Pingyang. Each of the three looked down at the manuscript in their hands.

Princess Pingyang just got it in her hand, and the hand holding the manuscript stopped. She looked up at the sage, then looked down again, and carefully read the manuscript paper in her hand.

The king of Qin and Princess Pingyang had too many places involving professional knowledge. They only read through them once, without having to read them in detail. Therefore, they read them before the prince.

See the prince has not finished, the two people also exchange to see each other received the share. When they had finished reading the paper, the prince read it. However, his face was gloomy and terrible: ”I beg my father to kill Xue Lang! This policy has ulterior motives and harms the country and the people. It should not be retained! ”

Needless to say, everyone has seen that the Shuo was written by Xue Lang. Throughout the whole dynasty and even the whole country, Xue Lang was the only one who could write sparsely in vernacular.

The king of Qin was stunned. Princess Pingyang held the manuscript paper and pressed her hand slightly. She said in a voice, ”can you let me have a look?”

The crown prince snorted coldly and said, ”A-Mei should accept such a person into the house. It's the responsibility of oversight.”

With that, he threw the manuscript paper to the waiter and asked him to take it to Princess Pingyang. Princess Pingyang was not in a hurry to explain, but took the manuscript from the Chamberlain. After reading it quickly, she handed it to the waiting king of Qin. The prince also read the two pieces that the king of Qin and Princess Pingyang had seen before, but his face was still gloomy and his anger was not reduced.

The sage said, ”the furniture in my palace is made of the drawings provided by Xue lang. I called him into the palace today and asked him what kind of reward he wanted. He offered these three strategies. The first is to increase the salt tax of the whole world to enrich the national treasury; the second is to make paper to increase the wisdom of the people; the third is You've seen it. What do you think? You can say it. ”The prince was the first to say, ”father, this policy is not advisable! This policy points directly to the foundation of aristocratic families. If this policy is used, the world's aristocratic families will be in chaos! Scholars are the foundation of a country. In the early days of our Dynasty, there were Turks outside and chaos and bandits inside. At this time, if we were in opposition to aristocratic families, the foundation of our country would not be preserved! In today's day and age, peace is the most important thing with aristocratic families, and they should rely on the gentry rather than confrontation. This policy is against the law. It's a policy of chaos in the country! ”

The sage nodded and turned to the king of Qin and asked, ”Erlang, what do you think?”

King Qin said, ”father, my idea is different from that of my elder brother. With these three strategies, we can see a little bit of it! ”

The sage gave him a funny look: ”Oh? In detail. ”

”Here it is.”

In his spare time, the king of Qin said: ”in his spare time, he had read many historical books. Throughout the previous dynasties, the reasons for the country's subjugation seem to be different. In fact, the influence of the gentry was greater than that of the royal family. People tend to benefit, and the gentry is no exception. Some of the true statesmen are willing to work hard for the country and the people, but there are also those who are greater than the country. Such people are everywhere in history. ”

All of you are well versed in poetry and books, so you can understand the meaning of the words of the king of Qin. The king of Qin then said, ”father, I think that how to balance the scholars and the people and how to deal with them is the foundation of the country. The king is like a boat, and the people are like water. Water can carry a boat and it can also overturn it. If the power of the intelligentsia is too large, the people will lose their land, and there will be a situation in which the people can't live, and the world will be in chaos if the people's livelihood is too poor! ”

”Good! What a ”monarch like a boat, people like water”! My son read history to be able to read such experience, aye is very pleased. It must be enough to comfort your aunt in the spirit of heaven. ”

The sage's face was full of pride and pride of the father. The king of Qin immediately said a few words of humility, and the father and son met each other quite well.

The prince pursed his mouth slightly, lowered his head slightly, and did not speak.
