To be honest, Li Ke really didn't know what was being discussed today, and he didn't bother to find out. Whatever he loved, it had nothing to do with him.
After the normal procedures were completed, Li Shimin sat down and spoke directly: "Today, let's discuss the follow-up to the "Datang Weekly". Such a huge tool that serves the country and the people and is a propaganda mouthpiece for the imperial court has been managed in such a state by you. "
"I am aware of my guilt." Changsun Wuji stood up immediately, and several other ministers also stood up.
Li Ke was speechless. What was his father playing at? He beat himself in front of the ministers to give the ministers face, and now he beats these ministers in front of himself? Give yourself a face?
But he was just making random guesses and didn't know what Li Shimin was thinking.
"Don't mention the past anymore. The current plan is to solve the dilemma of "Datang Weekly". Does anyone have a good solution?" Li Shimin asked calmly.
"I have a candidate who can solve the current problem." Fang Xuanling stood up simply.
Fang Xuanling's words gave Li Ke a strong sense of déjà vu. He directly ignored some of the unspoken rules of the court and said directly: "Wei Guogong, you are not talking about me, are you?"
Fang Xuanling: "..."
Ministers: "..."
No, Your Highness, do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand? Why are everyone singing along here? Isn’t it just to return this thing to you and let you operate it yourself? What's the matter with your sudden words at this time?
Say you don’t understand. With your previous methods, it can be said that all the officials in the entire Tang Dynasty have never played against you. Say you understand. What do you mean by speaking now?
"I really have this idea. I won't do it. Good guy, everyone was so angry at the beginning that the "Datang Weekly" would not work in my hands. It was as if I controlled the "Datang Weekly" and I, the Tang Dynasty It's like I'm going to perish, now I have to be the one to do it?" Li Ke sneered, what good thing are you thinking of?
Oh, you take it away when you think it’s useful. If you think it’s no longer useful, you give it back to me. You’re the one who co-authored it, right? Why?
"Your Majesty, the candidate I prefer is indeed His Highness the King of Shu. His Highness the King of Shu is the founder of Datang Weekly. Previously, I and others had not thought carefully about it. I felt that His Highness the King of Shu was young and inevitably inexperienced, so I made this decision. , now it seems that I am really the short-sighted person." Fang Xuanling lost his face and continued following Li Ke's words.
He is the one who takes the blame, what do you want him to do?
As soon as Fang Xuanling said this, Changsun Wuji became a little depressed. You just say what you say. What do you mean by criticizing Sang and Huai?
"I also care about His Highness the King of Shu." Immediately a minister followed.
Looking at these ministers who jumped out, the company commander Sun Wuji finally spoke: "I am arrogant and arrogant. I think that all the ministers in the court can run the "Datang Weekly" well, so I behave like this. But I never thought that the "Datang Weekly" "This is a new matter, and it is far beyond our ability to handle it. It is better to ask His Highness the King of Shu to take charge of the overall situation."
Li Ke sneered, taking charge of the overall situation, right? The implication is that I will come up with a plan to revitalize "Datang Weekly", and then it is up to you to decide what content to write, right?
"I also implore His Highness the King of Shu to accept the "Datang Weekly". Currently, the sales volume of Datang Weekly does not exceed 7,000 copies. It has lost its role as the mouthpiece of the imperial court, and many people do not believe the content of "Datang Weekly". Therefore. I think it would be better for His Highness the King of Shu to take over. If His Highness the King of Shu has any difficulties, you can directly raise them." Wei Zheng also stood up.
Wei Zheng finally saw that it was not that Li Ke couldn't take over, or that Li Ke was waiting for them to take over on their own initiative, but I couldn't take over for no reason. You had to give me benefits, so Wei Zheng told Li Ke.
"Yes, His Majesty the King of Shu can just ask him if he has any difficulties." Changsun Wuji also spoke. He knew that if he didn't respond, Li Ke would not speak at all.
"Okay, since you said so, I have a win-win idea." Li Ke said calmly. He could see that Li Shimin could not tolerate this situation now and could not give up Datang Weekly, so he must communicate in private. pass.
If things continue like this, it will do no one any good if things become rigid.
And this matter can only be taken over by Li Ke, and it is useless for anyone to take over, because now in the eyes of the people, "Datang Weekly" is controlled by aristocratic families. This impression is unexplainable. No one who takes over can escape this impression.
Only Li Ke, and only Li Ke, is recognized by all the people.
"Your Highness, please speak." Wei Zheng said.
"After founding the "Datang Weekly", I felt that there was a lack of talents under my command, so I intended to open schools in the name of my father in every state and every state in the world, and invite many masters to teach literacy to ordinary people. Of course, I hope that It is unlikely that they will become talented by studying, but it is possible to teach them to be able to read and understand arts, and become a reserve of basic talents such as craftsmen and shopkeepers of the Tang Dynasty."
"In this way, when the number of people increases, a large number of people with reading talents will inevitably appear, and these people will be given further education and high schools and universities will be established. The name is Datang Royal Academy, which aims to provide education for Datang The imperial court cultivates available talents, and they may not be able to benefit one country as officials for one term, but as some officials, it is not a problem to manage some small counties in the Tang Dynasty, control water, farm mulberry, etc. "
"And the principals of these schools are all my father, so they can be considered disciples of the Emperor, so naturally they work extremely hard."
"As for me, I want to establish an examination system to select talents for me and run Datang Weekly. These talents will not occupy the imperial quota. They come from small merchant families who cannot participate in the imperial examination, but are able to study. I will choose among the scholars, and the selected talents can help me run the "Datang Weekly" or be used to teach the Royal Academies all over the Tang Dynasty."
"This is a win-win move." Li Ke said.
Everyone was shocked...you fucking call this a win-win? How do you understand win-win? Isn’t this how you win twice? !
You co-author education talents, cultivate talents, and even examine talents and you fucking take advantage of it. Is this a win-win situation?
If you include the honorary title system that made you hand over "Datang Weekly" in the first place, would you call it a triple win? !
Of course, some people wanted to jump out and object, but when they jumped out, they thought about why Li Ke could shamelessly propose such an extreme idea! That's because they asked for help from him!
Can you object... No! Because the matter of "Datang Weekly" seemed to have been resolved, one of the Zheng clan was killed, several ministers of Hongwen Hall killed two, and the others were demoted to await punishment. But in fact, the matter was not resolved at all because Li Shimin had a knife in his hand.
If anyone prevents "Datang Weekly" from returning to normal, Li Shimin can cut it off at any time with the knife in his hand.
So...how could they say no? !
