Chapter 560 Yue Heng offers advice
“How should we fight in that debate?”
Hearing this question, Fu Qingzhou’s face immediately showed a bitter look.
"Didn't you say last time that 'Bai Xiaochuan' can no longer participate in the debate?"
He asked helplessly: "And after the incident in Wuli Village, your relationship with the family is no longer You’re so nervous, why do you still have to fight?”
"Hey, I'm the emperor, and I have a golden tongue!"
Zhao Yuan's eyes crossed: "I said I'm going to do it, I have to do it, how can I give up?"
Fu Qingzhou sighed: "But I really don’t know how to debate.”
Bai Jin also sighed: “Your Majesty, it’s okay if you want to play, but... what do you hope to achieve through this debate?”< br>
Ning Wushu also said calmly from the side: "There is a saying in the art of war: do not move unless it is advantageous, use it unless it is necessary, and do not fight unless it is dangerous. If you don't know what to do and what goal to achieve, it is better not to do it."< br>
Zhao Yuan blushed: "I'm just unhappy. I want to scold these aristocratic families who control the government and use power for personal gain, can't I!"
Bai Jin sighed again.
“The cause of this debate is nothing more than a political commentary by Your Majesty in Zhangjian Academy.”
Yue Heng said cautiously: “It was you who proposed the debate in the first place. The teacher in the academy—Vice President Ling, why not ask him what he wants to do?"
"Well..."
When he said this, Zhao Yuancai seemed to finally remember something and patted his forehead.
"Little Lingzi! Little Lingzi!"
He shouted at the top of his voice.
Soon, the door to the royal study room opened, and Eunuch Huang poked his head in with a flattering look on his face: "Your Majesty, what do you want me to do?"
"Send someone to the Palm Sword Academy." Zhao Yuandao : "Invite my teacher here."
Everyone in the imperial study room breathed a sigh of relief, including Fu Qingzhou.
In his opinion, this debate is really unnecessary.
If a debate is just an activity for students to train political theory in Zhangjian Academy, it is harmless, and it will have no impact if you just play it.
But if we really want to move this debate to the court, in front of all civil and military officials, then it will have a completely different meaning.
The situation now is already different from that then.
After the Wuli Village and Xiaoyu Pavilion cases, the conflict between the emperor and the aristocratic family has surfaced. In order to appease the aristocratic family, Ning Baimei even offered the Eight Swords of Kings to each other.
Moreover, Yue Heng has also joined the cabinet, and he is almost a sure-fire "Yuan family member" in everyone's eyes.
Even Fu Qingzhou has been knighted and is a serious "noble".
To continue the debate at this time, they are not suitable to come forward at all.
Moreover, there was a quarrel in the court about "whether to use talents from the world and reduce the number of children from aristocratic families." If Zhao Yuan accidentally revealed any tendencies, the conflict would intensify.
"Oh, Brother Zhao."
Fu Qingzhou couldn't help but complained: "I think you are quite politically wise in appointing Brother-in-law? Why do you have to argue all this?"
Zhao Yuan was furious: "Are you calling me stupid?"
"Not stupid enough." Fu Qingzhou sneered: "I'm just too impulsive."
Zhao Yuan glared at me.
Ning Wushu smiled at the side and said: "Your Majesty, if you really want to have this debate, it's fine. However, you still have to think clearly about what you hope it will bring you."
Zhao Yuan pondered for a moment and murmured: "Then let's wait for the teacher to come first, and you... think about it together."
This wait... didn't take long.
Probably because Eunuch Huang was fast enough and Vice President Ling was also in the realm of the heaven, in less than a cup of tea, Ling Junjie entered the imperial study room in a hurry. "What's wrong?"
As soon as he entered the door, he asked loudly: "What's the matter? We can't talk about it in the academy?"
Zhao Yuan stood up and bowed his hands in a student salute: "Teacher, you are here."
< br>And Bai Jin actually stood up and saluted Ling Junjie: "Teacher."
Fu Qingzhou suddenly realized - no wonder "Bai Xiaochuan" and Bai Jin knew each other before, and they were co-authors with the same teacher.
Ling Junjie nodded in greeting, glanced at everyone present, and frowned slightly: "Your Majesty, what is going on?"
"Teacher, sit down and chat." Zhao Yuan smiled.
The door of the imperial study room was closed again, and soon, several people explained clearly the cause and effect.
"They are right."
After hearing this, Ling Junjie said calmly: "If it is just a debate in the academy, it is fine; there has never been Xiaoyu Pavilion or Wuyue Pavilion before. Regarding the Lizhuang case, it doesn't hurt that the emperor showed some dissatisfaction and criticized the family."
"But in the current situation, it is a bit impulsive to force the conflict to the table."
Zhao Yuan scratched his head irritably: "Teacher, why did you ask me to write that political article and organize that debate in the first place?"
"Does this need to be said?"
Ling Haojie said in a low voice: "You are the emperor, and I am your teacher. Nowadays, the imperial examinations are the important way for the court to select talents. Although aristocratic families dare not reach out to Mingjiang Pavilion, most of the officials are descendants of aristocratic families. Your Majesty, if you want to get rid of the shackles of aristocratic families, I will definitely help you clarify your ideas!"
"Not only that, if you and I can form a complete theory of political theory, I can also organize it and present it, and then we can really work on it! Hundreds of officials are allowed to discuss policies in the court..."
After hearing what he said, Bai Jin's eyes suddenly lit up: "The teacher means that the court can discuss a... fairer and more just imperial examination system. ! ”
Snap!
Ling Junjie gave a high-five: "That's what it means."
Fu Qingzhou laughed: "Isn't that already there? The purpose of the debate."
Zhao Yuan's eyes lit up.
Ling Junjie was puzzled: "What do you mean? Do you still want to have this debate?"
"...Fight, of course we have to fight."
It was Yue Heng who said this.
He said softly: "Actually, it is not wrong for the emperor to want to have this debate."
Seeing everyone looking over, he took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Xiaosheng...ah No, Wei Chen has just been thinking about why everyone thinks that this debate cannot be fought."
"Everyone is just worried about angering the family, causing the emperor to fail to issue orders and all officials to be dissatisfied... However, Wuli Zhuangyi. After the incident broke out, aren’t these families and the people behind the scenes worried? ”
After saying a few words, Yue Heng seemed to have found his confidence, and became more and more calm as he spoke: "The Emperor is surrounded by Master Xiangjian Master and Youming Sword Pavilion. This is the most powerful force in the world. If they are really not afraid of it, We won’t be secretive and act secretly.”
“Now that the incident has occurred, Hui Jue and Jiang Baichuan have escaped, and Hua Xincheng is in jail. It’s them who should be worried!”
“No matter how the emperor and the Xiangjian Master plan to appease them, blindly appeasing them will only make them think that the emperor is weak!”
“At this time, Vice President Ling proposed to continue the scene. Wouldn’t it be appropriate to take this opportunity to discuss the power of the aristocratic families before the debate is over, and then propose a new imperial examination system for promoting talents in the world?”
Yue Heng looked directly at Zhao Yuan, the young emperor. The light of satisfaction in his eyes gave him great confidence.
"Your Majesty."
He bowed and said slowly: "Just now General Ning mentioned the art of war... the art of war, some ministers also know a little bit about it."
"The so-called order is written. , Qi Zhi uses force, which means that he must win. No matter the family or the officials, they are all your Majesty's ministers. Your Majesty is the general, and they are the soldiers. They should have the courtesy and strict punishment and deterrence. "
"In my humble opinion, this debate... must not only be fought, but also fought as soon as possible. Before Brother Fu can implement the appeasement plan, these people must be severely intimidated!"
