Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

Wang Shoude looked at Fan Yu and said, "Aren't you against the new learning in Henan Province?"

Fan Yu said, "That's simply confusing black and white!"

"When is the Luojing University freshman exam?"

"The first day of September."

Wang Shoude sneered, "Well, we will prepare for the new school exam on the first day of September."

"How do you prepare?"

"A group debate!"

"Group debate?" Fan Yu asked in confusion.

Wang Shoude said: "Don't the new students call themselves talents? Then test them in public. If they can't answer the questions under the watchful eyes of the public, let's see what face they have to take the test!"

"Wouldn't that call for many people to go?"

Lu Cheng said: "There are many people in Songyang Academy who are willing to go, and I have already sent an invitation letter to Yan Shenggong to invite him to give lectures in Songyang Academy. This will definitely gather scholars from all over the world."

Wang Shoude said to Fan Yu: "Boda, you also need to use your relationship to call everyone together."

Fan Yu hesitated a little: "Is this... so inappropriate?"

He, Fan Yu, naturally has connections.

His wife Cai is the granddaughter of Cai Xiang, a famous minister of Renzong Dynasty, and the granddaughter of Wen Yanbo.

He himself was promoted by the Henan government and had a profound influence on the academic circles of the Henan government.

"Boda, it's already at this time, what worries do you still have?" Wang Shoude said, "You have seen the new academic rules, even carpenters and blacksmiths can enter Luojing University to study, and after finishing the study, they can even become officials. , if you can write, don't you want to be an official?"

"This is an insult to the sacred doctrine!" Fu Dingfang, who sat on the side and seldom spoke, suddenly said.

He is nearly eighty years old and is the grandson of Fu Bi, a famous minister of Renzong Dynasty.

Rich families in Luoyang were wealthy and prominent families. Although the wealthy and prominent families in the Song Dynasty did not have their own large number of armed forces like the aristocratic families in the Tang Dynasty, their influence on local thinking should not be underestimated.

Fu Dingfang was so angry that he blew his beard and stared at his eyes. He said: "The new learning on Jingji Road is full of smog, and now the imperial court still wants to push the new learning to Luojing! This is trampling on the holy learning! The Great Song Dynasty did not perish in the hands of Jinren." , Are you going to perish at the hands of your own people!"

"Don't get angry, Mr. Fu, take care of your body." Fan Yu said hastily.

The emotions of the rest of the people also rose, and they spoke with righteous indignation.

Are you going to say that Fu Dingfang is a villain?

Not really.

Fu Bi and Fan Zhongyan promoted the Qingli New Deal together. Although it failed, Fu Bi himself was a famous official in the Northern Song Dynasty, and the rich family had strict family education.

It's just that he is a Confucian scholar after all, and when he gets old, he tends to become paranoid.

In other words, families with strict parenting tend to cultivate paranoia.

Fu Dingfang said: "That's it! I will go to Yingtian Academy and join forces to put pressure on the higher authorities!"

On the evening of the third day of August, Tokyo City.

Li Chunyou sat drinking tea at Cai Mao's house.

Cai Mao said, "Has Qufu sent people there?"

"I went." Li Chunyou said, "But I heard that Yan Sheng Gong Kong Duanyou was ill, and now Kong Fan is managing the Kong family."

Cai Mao suddenly said: "There were rumors among the people that the Confucian Mansion had contacts with the Jin Army, is it true or not?"

"Maybe Jin Jun passed by Qufu at that time and met Yan Shenggong, but it was just seeing him. Jin Jun held force, and there was nothing he could do if Yan Shenggong didn't see him. At this time, there was no one talking about it in the court."

"As long as you don't surrender to the Jin army, it's fine. If you surrender, it will be a big trouble." Cai Mao said.

"Don't worry Cai Xianggong, how could Yan Shenggong surrender to the Jin army!" Li Chunyou laughed.

"Wang Shoude wants to invite Yan Shenggong to give lectures at Songyang Academy?"

"Yes, in fact, it is to unite people's hearts. Zhao Ding wants to open a new school in Luoyang, obviously to send more talents to the New Deal. At the time of the new school in Gyeonggi Road, carpenters and blacksmiths can be officials. This incident itself has caused countless Against the opposition of others, these New Deal factions dare to push Luo Jing now, they are really afraid that the world will not be chaotic!"

At this time, the servant said outside: "Cai Xianggong, someone outside who claims to be Zhao Guan is asking for an audience."

Cai Mao and Li Chunyou looked at each other, got up quickly and walked outside together.

Outside the Cai Mansion, a young man was wearing ordinary-looking clothes and a hat, his face was covered, followed by several people.

The boy said: "Cai Xianggong, let's go in and talk."

Cai Mao and Li Chunyou were stunned for a moment, and their pupils shrank to the size of a needle eye at the same time.

Apparently, they all reacted, and quickly welcomed the person in, and they breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Hearing about Officer Zhao, they thought it was the official who came.

Unexpectedly, it was the prince who came.

This made them both puzzled, happy, and worried at the same time.

After Zhao Chen entered the room, he said, "Mr. Cai, please forgive me for coming here uninvited."

"It is a great honor for His Royal Highness to visit the humble house."

"I took the liberty to come here, didn't I disturb Cai Xianggong?"

"No." Cai Mao hastily ordered someone to make tea, "I wonder if your Highness has any advice from this old minister?"

"I can't talk about advice. I'm here to ask Cai Xianggong."

"Please make it clear, Your Highness."

"I heard that Xinxue has begun to be implemented in Beijing Daming, Nanjing Yingtian and Xijing Luoyang?"

"It is true." Li Chunyou replied.

Cai Mao's heart was complicated, the prince came to his house suddenly, and he came to ask Xinxue.

It seems that the prince's attention to political affairs is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people, and he has been holding back before.

At such a young age, how could he be able to bear it all the time?

But the strange thing is that the prince's behavior is too immature at this time. He has just entered politics, how can he leave the palace at will and go to the governing government?

If it is found out, it will definitely come true.

Zhao Chen asked: "What do you two think of this policy?"

"To tell you the truth, His Royal Highness, Shi Lin is against this policy."

"Why?"

Li Chunyou said: "This policy is a smear and trample on the sacred teachings. It was implemented in Jingji Road before, and its influence was still limited. Now it is implemented in the four capitals, and there are complaints from all over the country. Soon, everyone in the world will know that if you indulge, what is the rule?"

Zhao Chen was silent for a moment, then said, "What's the plan for the two of you?"

Cai Mao and Li Chunyou looked at each other without answering.

Zhao Chen said: "I also think that the new learning is a disorderly government, but I am troubled and have no solution. I also ask the two of you to put my Song Jiangshan first!"

The two hesitated for a while, and after a while, Li Chunyou said: "His Royal Highness is benevolent and generous, and everyone in the world knows it."

"What do I need to do?" Zhao Chen's tone was visibly agitated.

Cai Mao quickly took over the words: "Your Highness now only needs to handle the affairs in your own hands in the Ministry of Officials. Your Highness is the crown prince, and you can no longer show your face in public at will, so as not to give people facts, which will be disadvantageous to Your Highness. Scholars in the world still need Your Highness."

"Could it be that I can't do anything?" Zhao Chen's tone increased significantly.

"Your Highness has just joined the government, with a shallow foundation and insufficient prestige. It is better to handle the affairs in the hands of the officials. After accumulating prestige, it will naturally affect the overall situation."

"How long until then?"

Cai Mao said: "Everyone in the world praises His Highness for his benevolence. As long as His Highness concentrates on handling government affairs, he will surely be supported by countless people in the near future."

"What about the new study now?"

Li Chunyou said: "Your Highness, don't worry, people with lofty ideals from all walks of life have already taken action. We recommend you Wang Shoude to participate in politics. We will find a way to mention him to the capital and recommend him to be the minister of the Ministry of Rites and in charge of teaching. With him, we will be even more powerful!"

When it was getting dark, Gao Qiu still decided to go to the palace.

"The prince went to the Cai Mansion?" Zhao Ning was a little surprised.

At the same time as Zhao Ning, Qin Hui who had returned to Beijing also received the news, but Qin Hui didn't know that the crown prince had arrived at the Cai Mansion, but only knew that the crown prince had left the palace.

Chapter 426 Qin Hui's Ambition (Part [-])

"It's very possible." Gao Qiu said, "I found out about the eyeliner in the Cai Mansion."

Gao Lian has always been rigorous in his choice of words, he used "very possible" instead of "certainly true".

"Oh, it seems that the prince is still diligent and inquisitive." Zhao Ning restrained his emotions and said lightly.

Gao Qiu was a little surprised by Zhao Guanjia's performance.

The prince had just entered politics, so he quietly went to the ruler's house in the evening. This is a very sensitive matter.

But Zhao Guanjia behaved calmly, as if he didn't take it seriously, which made Gao Qiu unable to figure out Zhao Guanjia's thoughts.

The prince's participation in politics caused turmoil in the court.

When this chaos is unknown, countless people have already begun to observe.

The fact that Zhao Guan's family was so fond of letting the 14-year-old prince participate in politics was enough to make many people impatient and wanted to get involved with the prince.

After all, it is an investment in the future.

Gao Qiu doesn't necessarily think so.

It's just because Gao Lian had already bribed the servant of the Prince's East Palace to inquire about the Prince's news.

Finally, Gao Lian came to a conclusion: the prince doesn't like himself.

Prince Zhao Chen was studying in the East Palace, and he repeatedly stated that Gao Li was a treacherous minister who flattered the Lord.

This is why Gao Lian is so active in making small reports today.

Gao Qiu continued: "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince has not only been to the Cai Mansion, but also has a good relationship with Qin Hui."

"Why does he have a good relationship with Qin Hui?"

"I heard that Qin Hui and Luo Congyan have a very good relationship. Through Luo Congyan, Qin Hui often talks with the prince in private."

"Qin Hui is in charge of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and the crown prince talked with Qin Hui, presumably to learn how to deal with the administrative affairs of the Ministry of Criminal Justice." Zhao Ning still said calmly.

Seeing that the Zhao family kept praising the crown prince, Gao Qiu did not dare to be too presumptuous, he said: "Maybe, the crown prince is a studious and inquisitive person."

Zhao Ning looked at Gao Qiu and said, "What did the prince say when he went to the Cai Mansion?"

"It seems to be related to the New Deal. I haven't found out what it said specifically."

Zhao Guanjia continued to ask: "What is the prince's attitude towards the New Deal?"

"This... I don't know."

"Okay, back off."

"minister……"

"Anything else?"

"My minister retire."

After coming out of Wende Hall, Gao Qiu was full of doubts.

What is the official Zhao's attitude towards the prince?

He couldn't see through it, and couldn't figure it out.

In fact, Zhao Ning felt harmless about Zhao Chen's meeting with Cai Mao.

Seeing that Cai Mao is nothing more than talking about political affairs, is it important to talk about specific political affairs?

Zhao Ning didn't care.

As for whether Zhao Chen will visit Zhao Ding in private tomorrow, it doesn't matter.

Because the current situation is chaotic, drawing conclusions in my mind too early will blind my eyes and affect my behavior.

Now Zhao Ning is just a bystander.

Bystanders, do not give information to those in the game first.

Neither can Gao Qiu.
