After Li Er finished the morning session today, he remembered that the entrance examination was being held at Yanhuang Academy. Since the last time he, his eldest grandson, Concubine Yang and all his children visited the Yanhuang Academy after it was completed, he was shocked at the same time. There is even more expectation for the future of the academy.
Guessing that the exams over there were not over yet, Li Er thought of going to Yanhuang Academy on a whim. Unexpectedly, he heard the conversation between Di Xiaoxu and Li Zexuan as soon as he climbed onto Yunshan Mountain. , Li Er, who was originally full of expectations, was suddenly poured a basin of cold water in his heart, which was chilled to the bone.
"Your Majesty, I... I just loved my son so much that I made a mistake. I hope your Majesty will forgive me~!"
In the entire Tang Dynasty, there were only a few people who dared to confront Li Er who was in a furious state. Obviously, Di Xiaoxu was not among them. Feeling Li Er's aggressive eyes and the strong pressure emanating from Li Er, Di Xiaoxu hesitated for a long time, then bowed to apologize.
"Hmph~! I love my son so much~?"
Li Er was still a little dissatisfied. He snorted and said: "According to Di Aiqing, is this Yanhuang Academy a dragon's pond and a tiger's den? Or is it a place where filth and evil are hidden? What makes you so anxious to take your son away from this place~?" "
This is not giving out sub-questions, but giving out propositions~!
A trace of cold sweat broke out on Di Xiaoxu's forehead. He didn't know how to answer, so he could only say: "I don't dare~!"
"Bang~!"
Li Er finally broke out completely. He slammed the table, stood up and said angrily: "You don't dare~? But you have already done it, why don't you dare~? I have said before in the court that engineering is not As for miscellaneous studies, as long as they are useful to my Datang and can make my Datang stronger, I am willing to accept them.
But there are always some people who, because of school bias, ignore the interests of the country and the court, ignore my repeated orders, and ignore the millions of people of the Tang Dynasty! What are your intentions~! You must know that you have a family and a country before you can have Confucianism and engineering. If the Tang Dynasty was weak and fell into the hands of foreigners, where could Confucianism spread? Do you want to be the lackeys of the foreigners to enslave the Han people~?
In order to make you give up your school bias, I became the dean of Yanhuang Academy, but I didn't expect that even so, some people still think that engineering is miscellaneous studies, haha~! Very good~! Di Xiaoxu, you have to know that you are my minister first, and then a Confucian disciple! "
At the end of his words, Li Er laughed angrily, and his angry voice even echoed in the conference room. After the guards guarding outside felt Li Er's rage, they couldn't help but straighten their waists and straighten their eyes. It was getting bigger, for fear that someone with blind eyes would break in at this time.
Di Xiaoxu, who faced Li Er's wrath, felt even more stressed. He quickly bowed down and said sadly: "I'm scared, I hope your majesty will calm down~!"
Li Zexuan secretly applauded when he heard it, especially Li Er's last sentence: "You must know that you have a family and a country before you can have Confucianism and engineering. If the Tang Dynasty was weak and fell into the hands of foreigners, where would Confucianism go?" To spread the word, are we going to be the lackeys of the alien race to enslave our Han people?" This really touched the heart of Li Zexuan!
In his previous life, he had read a post about the performance of Confucius' direct descendants at a moment when the nation was at risk of life and death. At that time, he was really angry and cursed. The content of the post was probably:
During the Jingkang Incident in the Southern Song Dynasty, the Jin State invaded the Song Dynasty on a large scale. Emperor Gaozong of the Southern Song Dynasty, Zhao Gou, the then King of Kang, fled south. Kong Duanyou, the forty-eighth generation of Yanshenggong, also abandoned the ancestral temple and fled south in the name of "paying homage to the Holy Emperor" in response to the imperial edict;
In 1252 AD, the fiftieth generation Yanshenggong Kong Yuancuo (Beizong) passed away. This was the period when the Mongolian aristocrats ruled the Central Plains. At a time when the nation was in danger, the descendants of Confucius did not lead the people to "serve the country with loyalty," but instead scrambled to flatter their new master Kublai Khan. It is said that in order to compete for the title of "Yanshenggong", Kong Yuantuo's nephews all came to Kublai Khan to compete for favor. Seeing the ugly behavior of the descendants of Confucius, Kublai Khan laughed and responded: " All of you, please come back and study hard. If you are talented, I will be able to appoint you to an official position."
Four hundred years later, when the Qing Dynasty entered the country, Aixinjueluo Fulin ascended the throne in Beijing and proclaimed himself emperor. Kong Yanzhi, the 64th generation Yanshenggong who was canonized by Emperor Chongzhen, immediately wrote to Emperor Shunzhi the next day to proclaim himself a minister. He also flattered the Manchu monarchs in "Chu Jin Biao Wen" for "carrying heaven to the extreme and appeasing the people with virtue", "the six universes share the divine monarch", "the eight desolate and salty emperors", "the mountains and rivers and the sun and the moon shining together" and " "The country is the same as Han Bing Yong", and he also said sincerely and fearfully that "I am a strong Confucian scholar, Zhang Jian is a young man. In the past, he inherited the great kindness of the past generations. Now he is celebrating the prosperity of the new dynasty. He is looking forward to the prosperity of learning and is afraid of being behind." This is so servile and servile. His posture is simply disgusting!
Therefore, throughout history, whenever foreign invaders invaded on a large scale, almost no "descendant of the Holy Gate" could stand up and organize the people to form "rebels" to resist the foreign invasion. On the contrary, they always immediately and quickly attacked the foreign invaders. The invaders surrendered and asked the foreign invaders to confer and extend their title of "Yanshenggong". The weakness in the bones of Confucianism is evident~!
What Li Er just said may have been unintentional, but it predicted the state of Confucianism a thousand years later. At that time, Confucian disciples really became the lackeys of foreign races to enslave the Han people~!
Of course, this is a bit "deviant", but Li Er dares to say that no king after Li Er dared to point it out directly like this. First, because at this time, Confucianism had not yet developed to the point where it could completely influence the political situation of the court. Another reason is that Li Er is a powerful master who can rule the country with literature and rule the world with martial arts. He has absolute control over the country.
"Ha~! I know you are dissatisfied! Then I will tell you one more thing. Soon, I plan to promote Li Zexuan's new arithmetic throughout the Tang Dynasty. By then, all local governments and yamen must use the new arithmetic. number!"
After Li Er calmed down, he looked at Di Xiaoxu and said calmly.
Di Xiaoxu was shocked and wanted to say something, but he still held it back.
Seeing this, Li Er said meaningfully: "Di Aiqing must think that my move is inappropriate~? Haha~! Although I am interested in studying engineering, I will not ignore the interests of the country! Dr. Liu, the former Imperial College Doctor of Computer Science, recently followed I have said that if arithmetic were fully implemented in the Tang Dynasty, not only the Ministry of Civil Affairs, but also the Hucao and Cangcao in local prefectures and counties would be able to calculate more than five times faster and the accuracy would be improved when managing financial revenue and expenditure. Times, Di Aiqing, do you know how much expenditure this can reduce for Datang every year?"
