"I……"
Lin Yi stiffened suddenly, turned around slowly, and was stunned when he saw Lin Yunhong's change in temperament, as if he had suddenly changed into a different person.
'Emperor Dayan? '
'He is the Dayan Emperor? '
Lin Yi couldn't believe it.
The man who put on his coat and complained about being forced to do hard work was actually Emperor Dayan.
Only then did Lin Yi discover that Lin Yunhong and Teng Wang Lin Yunying did have a slight resemblance.
"Student Lin Yi has met His Majesty!"
Lin Yi was moved, and just about to give him a big salute, Lin Yunhong helped him up with both hands: "No need to be so polite, you don't need to do this big salute when you see me in the future!"
"Your Majesty, is this...appropriate?"
Lin Yi was a little confused.
No matter how you look at it, he is just an ordinary scholar. He has no official status and no background. Why should he have this honor?
Even if Yan Shuangwu, the commander of the Dragon Guard, comes, he has to kneel down and salute.
This is the ritual system of Dayan.
The distinction between monarch and minister.
"If I say it's suitable, then it will be suitable!"
Lin Yunhong turned his head and looked at the capital outside the palace wall. Thinking of Lin Yi's words just now, he felt mixed emotions in his heart.
But what pleased him was that Lin Yi had ordinary people in mind, and his perspective on the problem was straight to the point.
"I will send someone to visit those grandparents and grandchildren!"
Lin Yunhong didn't question Lin Yi, but he also couldn't see the suffering in the world. They were all his people and regarded them as flesh and blood.
"Your Majesty, the student is just speculating. The student just made unreasonable remarks about Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me!"
Lin also didn't want to leave a bad impression in Emperor Dayan's mind.
"Although it is speculation, it touches my heart!"
Lin Yunhong put his hands behind his back and looked at Lin Yidao: "Come for a walk with me, I want to talk to you!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Lin Yi followed Lin Yunhong like a little fanboy.
"Come to me!"
Lin Yunhong slowed down and looked back at Lin Yi.
Lin Yi was almost numb at that time. Is this His Majesty Dayan? But he still stood beside Lin Yunhong obediently.
"You were born among the people, and you must have seen a lot of suffering in the world. I know your ambition. You must have wanted to change something at that time, right?"
Lin Yunhong said.
Lin also knew that His Majesty was asking about his ambitions, which would determine his future path, so he said: "The major events in the world cannot be changed by a student alone!"
“It’s as difficult as climbing to the sky from the bottom up!”
Lin Yi was silent for a moment, looked at Lin Yunhong and said: "It's only possible from the top down!"
"The sufferings of the people are not caused by natural disasters but by man-made disasters. The True Interpretation of Wen Dao says that all people under the Wen Dao are ants. Students think this is the root of the disaster!"
"From the day scholars came into contact with literature, their views have been profoundly affected by this sentence. Therefore, in the eyes of most scholars, people without a literary heart are untouchables, and they will be robbed of life and death!"
Lin Yunhong looked solemn and nodded slightly, indicating that he recognized Lin Yi's words.
Starting from the bottom up is indeed as difficult as climbing to the sky.
Only when the superiors impose strong policies and formulate laws to constrain the behavior of scholars can this world be changed.
but.
He had several doubts and asked, "What are these three views?"
"World view, values, outlook on life!"
Only then did Lin Yi realize that there was no such thing as three views in this world, but he believed that His Majesty would understand the general meaning.
"Very good!"
Lin Yunhong looked at Lin Yi with joy and said, "I understand the 'three views' you mentioned. The formation of the three views comes from the day after tomorrow!"
"As you said, the scripture "The True Interpretation of Literary and Dao" written by Shengyuan has advocated from the beginning that the world is unkind, that Literary Dao is supreme, and that the common people are ants."
"In the past few years, I have worked with Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate to perfect the laws for Dayan scholars, in an attempt to solve this problem from the root!"
"But the Holy Court regarded the True Interpretation of Wen Dao as the meaning of the sage scriptures and exercised the privileges of scholars. In the end, the law became a sharp sword hanging over the heads of the people of Dayan."
"Some officials even colluded with scholars to target the court's laws at ordinary people. Isn't it ridiculous?"
Lin Yunhong smiled bitterly, and then continued: "That's why I was particularly happy when Zhang Dong accepted the official position for you and judged the scholars."
"That's when I found out about you!"
Lin Yi listened quietly.
He could feel His Majesty's desire to change the world. Just because he beheaded the scholar in public, he gained His Majesty's attention.
Well...it's quite miserable!
But there is no way, the Holy Court is an unshakable behemoth after all.
If the imperial court directly breaks up with the Holy Court, I am afraid that scholars all over the world will follow suit.
This is the Holy Academy's biggest trump card.
Moreover, the "asking for the Holy Judge" in the true interpretation of Wen Dao is the biggest weapon used by the Holy Academy to pamper scholars. The rules of Wen Dao will make the most beneficial choice between scholars and ordinary people.
That is, not guilty!
'Your Majesty must have discovered that after I requested the Holy Inquisition, the Saint Can Nian would turn to me... that's why he treated me so specially! Lin Yi had such speculation in his mind.
"Lin Yi, if you were me, what would you do in this unbreakable situation?" Lin Yunhong said seriously.
Buzz!
Lin Yi's figure was shaken, his eyes widened suddenly, and his breathing became rapid.
What the hell?
What if he were the emperor?
"Your Majesty, the students are scared..."
Lin Yi quickly stated that he had some ideas, and he had to be in a high position to do them, but he had never had such a crazy idea.
"There are no outsiders, what are you afraid of?"
Lin Yunhong found it funny.
You are my legitimate prince, there is nothing to be afraid of, Dayan will be yours sooner or later.
Lin Yi saw that His Majesty had said this, and said bravely: "If it were a student, the student's idea would be very simple, that is, to strictly catch the scholars who use literature to violate the law, and then publicize it widely!"
What is Dayan currently lacking?
What is missing is ruthless people who dare to confront the Holy Court, and authoritative propaganda channels.
The people of Dayan did not know what serious crime they had committed by violating the law through writing. Neither the people nor the scholars knew.
This creates a blind spot.
That is, no one knew that the imperial court was targeting scholars, so the people still did not dare to stand up, and the scholars still acted tyrannically.
If both scholars and the people of Dayan know that there are laws to abide by and those who break the law will be prosecuted, once this seed is planted, it will surely sprout.
When he was in Lindong County, why did he wait for the scholars to come and the common people to come before he started? It was just to show them.
"Hahaha!"
Lin Yunhong couldn't help laughing. He looked at Lin Yidao: "Your idea coincides with mine. In the past, when the imperial court wanted to attack scholars, the Holy Court would always intervene. With a single word of judgment, the scholars could escape unscathed."
"But now, I have reached an agreement with the Holy Court, that is, I have the power of life and death against scholars who violate the law with their writing!"
That agreement was the establishment of Tianshu Wei.
Although it is said to guard Tianshu Academy, in fact, Tianshu Guards were established to target illegal scholars.
The only price for this agreement is that the imperial court is primarily responsible for the lives of so many people in Nanxiang Mansion.
The Holy Academy only paid the price of Liao Qingliu, the academic supervisor of the academy.
But in fact.
If it weren't for the Demon Dao in Tianshu Academy, who cooperated with Su Weili, the Blood Sacrifice Array would not have been successfully deployed.
"As for spreading the word..."
Lin Yunhong looked at Lin Yi and said, "How to do it?"
"Establish a newspaper!"
Lin also checked Dayan's government agencies and found that there was a lack of an outlet for external publicity.
That is to say.
The common people and scholars had no idea what the imperial court had done for the people, nor what those scholars had done.
But there are newspapers.
It can change a lot of things.
"Newspaper office?"
Lin Yunhong frowned slightly. He looked at Lin Yi in surprise. Was there something he didn't know about in this world?
He became a little curious.
"Yes! But it's just an idea. You can change the name!"
Lin also saw that His Majesty seemed to be very interested and said, "May I ask Your Majesty, what would you do if the Zhenfu Department detained a scholar who violated the law by writing?"
"Punish according to law!"
"Then what?"
"Then?"
Lin Yunhong frowned slightly, he was already punished according to the law, how could there be any further consequences?
Lin Yidao: "Have you ever thought about it, Your Majesty, since "The True Interpretation of Literary Dao" can make scholars form the concept that all ants under the literary Dao, then the court should also give the common people the courage to stand up!"
"It is true that His Majesty thinks so too, but students don't need to guess to know that the drums outside the palace have never sounded!"
Lin Yunhong nodded silently and said: "I often go to the palace wall. Actually, I also want to see when the people will beat the drum..."
Lin Yidao: "That's because Your Majesty did not set an example for the scholars and common people in the world. If the imperial court tells the common people that the imperial court is their backer, and scholars have no way to survive by messing with the law through literature, then... will the scholars still dare to mess with the law?"
"When ordinary people know that there is a court behind them, are they still afraid of offending scholars?"
"The students believe that His Majesty can establish a newspaper, and the governors, dragon guards, and warriors can be found all over the world. It is completely feasible to publish newspapers."
“And what Dayan is most indispensable for is paper and ink!”
Lin Yi didn't say any more. He knew that His Majesty would definitely understand what he meant.
"Newspaper office!"
"demonstration……"
Lin Yunhong weighed the pros and cons in his mind, and the light in his eyes became brighter and brighter. He looked at Lin Yida with a smile and said: "As expected of me... a good bachelor!"
Lin Yunhong was startled.
He almost spilled the beans.
"Your method is too good. It seems that all the efforts I have done over the years have been useless. The influence and deterrence are minimal!"
Lin Yunhong was in a very good mood. He didn't expect that Lin Yi had so many tricks.
This method can indeed effectively change some of the current status quo, and it is a good method that will benefit the future.
"Your Majesty's benevolence should be seen and known by all the people in the world!"
Lin also smiled.
I feel that His Majesty will adopt his suggestion. After all, it has both advantages and disadvantages.
In the past, when people heard about a certain case, they went to great lengths to find out more about it.
But now the court takes the initiative to inform.
"In your opinion, this government agency should be named after the newspaper?" Lin Yunhong looked at Lin Yi.
"people……"
Lin Yigang wanted to name the People's Daily, but he soon realized the efficiency problem.
"Dayan Weekly!"
Lin Yi thought the name was good. He looked at Lin Yunhong and said, "It is printed and published once a week. It can publish things about scholars who violate the law, and it can also publish what happened in various places in Dayan. Whatever your Majesty wants the people of Dayan to know, you can Publication and distribution..."
"If you have the Dayan Weekly, you have the right to speak. If this newspaper says that a scholar is guilty, then everyone in the world will think that the scholar is guilty!"
"If any official commits corruption and bends the law, then make the results public and tell the world that no matter who you are, knowing the law and breaking the law will be punished with a one-level penalty!"
After Lin Yi finished speaking, he exuded a trace of awe-inspiring righteousness.
It vaguely resonates with the formation in the palace.
A stream of clear air invisible to the naked eye rose from the palace and disappeared directly into Lin Yi's eyebrows.
