"I'm ashamed of myself."
After all, Gavinda couldn't keep calm anymore. An old man in his eighties wanted to do something big in his last time, but his life was not in vain.
But he didn't expect that he seemed to be being taken advantage of.
Think about it too.
The prince who was able to carry out such pioneering tasks as asking questions about politics in the southeast, who was able to use the power of his country to completely pacify Xixia, Meng Yuan, and Beiyan, could he be a cruel and ruthless prince who killed innocent people indiscriminately?
Can such a prince really convince the public, can he really use the whole country to quell internal and external troubles?
Would such a prince really carry out such an initiative as the Southeast Consultation to attract public opinion?
Is such a prince really as stupid and incompetent as others say?
Who is stupid?
Who is incompetent?
Gai Wenda cupped his fists and said, "Your Highness's sincere heart can be seen from the sun and the moon, but Bai Shen became prejudiced against Your Highness because of the new learning and Confucianism, and he has listened to the villain's words ever since."
"I'm ashamed of myself."
Xiao Yi's expression became a little gloomy, and he said: "Before I met you, I thought you were a famous person in the world. You would be famous in the southeast, and you would have great opinions... But your words today have somewhat disappointed me."
Gavinda was really ashamed and knew that his reputation would be ruined after today.
However, he still quickly looked away.
Things have happened.
The words have been spoken.
It's like water being poured out.
Can't take it back.
He wanted His Highness to emphasize Confucianism and culture, but it was obvious that His Highness had his own ideas.
However, his so-called emphasis on Confucianism and liberal arts has actually lost its greatest persuasiveness.
The current development of Xinxue has begun to be praised by many people.
Explore the nature of things.
The truths that the saints could not obtain are now concluded one by one through practice.
The sky is round and the square place is false.
The vast universe.
The earth is round.
The force is mutual.
There is an attraction to the earth.
Therefore, items on the earth never fly to the sky, but fall to the earth.
Heliocentric theory.
Gavinda also knew about it.
The more I understand this, in fact many of my questions seem to be solved.
New learning is indeed more practical.
There is no doubt about it.
And he.
Now that I have made a big mistake, it can only become a stepping stone for His Royal Highness to implement new learning.
This may also be the last effect of his life.
Xiao Yi said with emotion: "As a famous Confucian in the Qian Dynasty, you want to promote the new learning and focus on the ten principles of physical education. It is normal for you to have grievances, dissatisfaction with personnel matters, and even want to 'open up the academic path' of."
"And you can be regarded as a scholar leader in the southeast. You have taken a rough approach to government affairs and the country. It is normal for you to be dissatisfied with Gu Gu, the prince who oversees the country."
"After all, if I want to prevent the Southeastern nobles from annexing their land and benefit the people, it will touch the interests of the Southeastern nobles and make it impossible for them to own more land and obtain more money."
"Mr. Gai, your family should be among them, right?"
"Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce should be the cornerstone of the country, and each of them is indispensable."
"The nobles are supposed to be managers, to govern the huge empire of Daqian, to maintain relations between all parties, to enforce the law, and to uphold the laws of Daqian country."
"Nowadays, many people have become cowards of the country. One by one, relying on their own status and power, they want to suppress farmers, craftsmen, and merchants in order to maintain their superior status and power."
"If this continues, when the common people, craftsmen, and merchants cannot survive, they will definitely resist."
"At that time, the nobles must have suffered greatly."
"In the long history, there is no dynasty that lasts for thousands of years, nor does there exist aristocratic families that last for thousands of years!"
“Farmers cultivate food and feed the world.”
"Craftsmen built fortifications, including houses, roads, capitals, canals, the Great Wall, reservoirs, canals, etc. This is also an indispensable part of the development of the country."
"But for your own benefit, you treat this part of the people as slaves and perform corvées."
"All they want is two meals a day, just to survive."
"But you, just for your own benefit, to enjoy your superior authority, and for your own wealth, treat them as human beings."
"Merchant can sell products produced in each place to other places, such as fruits from the south, furs from the north, seafood from the east, and well salt from the west."
"If there were no merchants, would you be able to eat well salt, sea fish, fruits, beef jerky, mutton jerky, roast duck, roast chicken, and roast goose?"
"Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce should complement each other. Everyone should work towards the same goal and think about the same place. They should sacrifice their small families for the sake of everyone. Everyone should contribute to ZTE and make sacrifices for a greater prosperity. Look further ahead.”
"Instead, for the sake of their own interests, the gentry found ways to suppress, humiliate, or even directly resist the court's policies to benefit the country and the people, and go against the country."
"Let me ask, without Da Gan, can they guarantee that they can still enjoy this peaceful and prosperous age?"
"They can guarantee that troubled times will come, and can they still sit back and relax?"
"Can we guarantee that they will not be affected at all?"
"One by one, they are very selfish!"
"But you are still here, asking if you are sincere?"
"If it's just for yourself, why do you need to ask questions about politics in the southeast, why do you need to open up your voice, why do you need to build a residence to repay people's wisdom?"
"Now that I have quelled internal and external troubles and made great military achievements, I am worthy of the status and position of the Crown Prince."
"Then why bother and work so hard?"
"What for?"
"It's for these thousands of people!"
"Among them, there are also Mr. Gai and others."
"I can't be sincere to everyone, but I can definitely do it, and maintain the greatest sincerity to Daqian, to Daqian's tens of millions of people, and to this country, country and country!"
Everyone in the main hall was moved and admired.
Gavinda couldn't sit still.
He doesn't deserve to sit here.
So he stood up.
He stood up with difficulty, and no one came forward to help him.
After standing up, he saluted Prince Xiao Yi with difficulty.
Xiao Yi did not intend to let Gai Wenda go, nor did he intend to let go of this opportunity. He continued: "If a person really has shortcomings, he should criticize him, and if this person is still an important minister of the country, he should criticize him. Only by standing upright can you live up to the world. But have you ever thought about it? Fang Zhongcheng and Commander Lu are already the most suitable people for that position. Let me ask, if there are other people in that position, Can he really be as upright and upright as Fang Zhongcheng, and as abhorrent as Commander Lu?"
Following Prince Xiao Yi's question, Gai Wenda failed to straighten up after all.
"Do you know why I want to hold the Southeast Political Conference?"
"Just to spread the word?"
"It's wrong because I want to hear the thoughts of the people at the bottom and the true opinions of millions of people."
"Rather than the outspoken words of scholars."
"Those people are not like you. You can come to me and talk about civilized governance and shared governance, but they can't even talk!"
It is said that a master can be beaten to death with random punches, and it is also said that a gentleman can bully him.
Up to this point, no one thought that today's Southeast political inquiry would develop to this extent.
The same goes for Gai Wenda. If...if he had a previous life, he must know what it means to stand on the moral high ground. At this time, when he met the gaze of Prince Xiao Yi, he even dodged it for a moment.
