Becoming a Saint by Leisure Reading Chapter 775: Open the sea! Open the sea!
It is another monthly court meeting, and at the same time, this is also the last big court meeting of the Zhenghe reign. Therefore, in addition to the officials with various duties, even the noble nobles who usually do not appear have also woke up early. Go to the imperial city.
These honorable nobles are mostly hereditary titles of noble families and holy clans, and dynasties will change, but these families have worked for thousands of years at every turn, so only a small part of them are eligible to go to court.
But even so, the gate of the palace was temporarily blocked.
In order to deal with this situation, Ye Heng ordered to open two more side doors, but the motorcade outside the palace gate would rather line up and go through the middle door than go through the empty side door.
"Hmph, I'm going on the majestic and righteous way, how can I go astray!" "Exactly, it's the right way for us to be in the middle of the family!"
"This is the emperor's test. You must know the truth that haste makes waste." "This side door is temptation, we need to be careful!"
A group of Confucian scholars took this opportunity to admonish the juniors around them, telling them that going the right way is the place of etiquette and the need of righteousness. When the juniors and officials who followed the court heard the words, they were immediately in awe of these great Confucians.
Sure enough, life is full of knowledge!
Just at this time, Youdao's discordant voice sounded. "Da da da da...."
A carriage appeared conspicuously on the road in front of the side gate. It calmly overtook the crowd in front of the main gate and drove towards the palace.
"Hmph, a man with a wicked mind!" "Huh, a man who is opportunistic!"
One after another cold snort came from the carriage.
"Go and see, which family's son is it, and what official position is it?" An order came from a carriage with the banner of the saint's grace, "Is there any etiquette under the eyes of everyone!"
"Then... am I delusional? It seems to be Faxiang's car driver!" Someone rubbed his eyes and said.
"That's right, isn't the mastiff steward of Duke An's mansion driving the car? The first-rank great sage!" Someone immediately recognized the mastiff Lingling who was driving the car.
"It's the Duke of An, that's right, it's the Duke of An!" In an instant, there was some commotion in the team in front of the main gate.
Just now, he was taught by those elders not to take shortcuts to save trouble, so why did An Guogong go to that side door now.
At this time, there was no sound in the carriage, and there was a dead silence, while outside the carriage, the juniors and young officials began to discuss.
"What are these idiots doing?" Chen Luo looked out of the carriage with a puzzled expression on his face. If you don’t take such a big road, what are you going to do?
That's not the holy way!
At this moment, a child of a family who followed his elders to court suddenly shouted: "Mr. An, why did you take a shortcut!"
Chen Luo was taken aback, a shortcut?
After that, he looked at the side door in front of him, then at the brigade in front of the main door, and instantly understood what happened.
"Old Mastiff, stop!" Chen Luo shouted, Mastiff Lingling immediately stopped the carriage, Chen Luo got out of the carriage, looked at the crowd, cupped his hands, and said: "The main entrance is congested, Your Majesty will open another two Why don't you enter the door?"
"So the court meeting was delayed, wouldn't it be a big event?"
"Faxiang!" A young disciple said, "My grandfather said, we are following the majestic and righteous way, how can we go astray!"
The expression of Daru in the carriage behind him tightened. This grandson can't have it!
Everyone looked at Chen Luo, who smiled faintly. "You are so paranoid!"
"The way of majesty lies in the heart, not under the feet."
"Whatever is in the heart is the way under the feet; and the way under the feet cannot affect the way in the heart!" "The way is in the heart."
"When you see the main entrance, you feel that the way in front of the main entrance is the right way; but in my opinion, whether it is the main entrance or the side entrance, it is ultimately the way to Changming Palace."
"What I want to do is to reach the Changming Palace as soon as possible, and talk about the well-being of the people in the world. How can I waste time in front of a single door."
"Tao, is it determined by the reason I pursue behind the door, or is it determined by the door?"
"What restricts you is the front door and side door you see in your eyes, or the front door and side door in your heart?"
"The heart is the Tao, and the heart is the principle!"
When Chen Luo finishes speaking, that's right
The team in front of the gate was discussing again, and many great scholars looked at Chen Luo with serious expressions. They intuitively felt that although Chen Luo's words sounded simple, but after thinking about it carefully, there were infinite truths. At this time another student shouted: "Faxiang, my grandfather said, haste makes waste!"
"That's not what your grandpa said, it's what the master said!" Chen Luo laughed, "But, I'm not up to it?"
"Fa Xiang, my grandfather said that this is a test given to me by the emperor, it is a temptation!"
Chen Luo sneered at this: "Your Majesty opened the three doors just to allow you to enter the court as soon as possible and start a discussion as soon as possible, so what kind of temptation is there?"
"If you are poor, you will change, if you change, you will be successful, and if you are successful, you will last forever!"
"You ask yourself, have I hurt others by taking this path? Have I destroyed something? Is it more meaningful for the next thing to do?"
"If this answer tells you, no problem!" "Then why not go this way?"
"There is no road in the world. If there are many people walking, it will become a road." "I don't know what you are hesitating about!"
After finishing speaking, Chen Luo said to Mastiff Lingling: "Old Mastiff, hurry up," "That pedantic spirit rushed to me!"
Mastiff Lingling quickly responded, held up the whip, and shouted: "Drive!" The carriage quickly passed through the side gate and entered the imperial city.
At this time, the many Confucian scholars in front of the main gate all had serious expressions, recalling what Chen Luo said just now in their minds. "The heart is the Tao, and the heart is the principle!"
"There is no road in the world, and if there are many people walking, it will become a road!" And those three "isn't it"!
Subsequently, vehicles lined up behind the queue slowly moved to the avenue in front of the gate. Immediately, the righteousness on those vehicles was released, and there were faint fluctuations in the avenue.
On the gate of the imperial palace, Sima Lie's face was full of excitement. Got it!
Originally, I just planned to give Zhenghe Li a perfect ending, but I didn't expect that there would be unexpected gains. Sima Lie hastily put forward a large pen for Spring and Autumn, and wrote it down on the bamboo book—
In the winter of the forty-seventh year of Zhenghe, at the last great court meeting, Chancellor Chen Gong discussed Taoism in front of the palace, and opened up the style of new Confucianism, which can be called "the meeting of two doors". Tai Shigong said: Although Luo is the master of martial arts, he still worships in the bamboo forest. He has a Confucian heart and seven apertures, and he has won the true teaching of Confucianism. This "discussion between the two sects" is deafening, and it will surely lead to the tide of Confucianism in the next thousand years.
Sima Lie took a deep breath, and continued to write - Yu Qin watched it, very lucky!
After Chen Luo made such a fuss, the traffic at the entrance was greatly relieved. When everyone entered the main hall, they found that Chen Luo had already closed his eyes and rested in the position of Dharma Prime Minister, and many people were walking towards Chen Luo. After a half teacher's ceremony, he returned to his seat.
This made the officials who came in front all confused, and quietly asked why.
After a while, almost everyone arrived. At this time, Hou An came out from the side of the hall, just smiled at Chen Luo, and then came to the throne with a serious face, and shouted loudly: " The emperor is here!"
Subsequently, surrounded by a group of guards, Ye Heng walked up to the royal stage, sat on the dragon chair, and all the civil and military officials bowed their hands in worship.
Ye Heng waved his hand: "Your honor is welcome!"
"Today is the last big court meeting in the 47th year of Zhenghe, everyone, let's start!"
After Ye Heng's words fell, officials came out immediately and said, "Your Majesty Qi Zuo, I have something to discuss!"......
Chen Luo yawned.
I slept for about an hour and a half when I returned to the cage, and I finally regained the energy I lost when I woke up early. Rubbing his eyes, he saw several ministers arguing with each other.
It's not over yet? Then sleep a little longer.
Several officials in the bias office who maintained the order of the hall fell on Chen Luo and quickly turned away. That's the head, I can't care about it!
Don't tell me to be stern and selfless, do you know how hard our Faxiang is! He's still a kid, still growing!
At this moment, an official from the Ministry of Etiquette wanted to wake Chen Luo up, but he was immediately stopped by the person beside him and winked. Is there something wrong with you!
Since Chen Luo has become a Dharma minister, which time did he not kill people's heads when he gave a performance! Wake him up, who knows what will be checked again.
If he asks to play something again, according to the current rhythm of Biyi, he will really be out of office. When I didn't see him sleeping, the princes and nobles of those aristocratic and holy families all
Relieved? Let him sleep, everyone is safe.
Look, His Majesty specially made those arguing people quarrel a little quieter! The current Faxiang, the killing power is much more powerful than the military appearance!
Finally, at noon in the morning, the discussions in the hall gradually stopped.
Hou An glanced around and saw that no officials were planning to play, so he cleared his throat and was about to announce his retreat when a voice suddenly came: "Your Majesty, I have something to play!"
The crowd followed the prestige and saw that Chen Luo walked out from the position of Faxiang at some point and stood in the hall.
Damn it, you're awake! You are going to be the finale!
Many officials, especially the benefactors of the aristocratic and holy families, felt their hearts tighten and their necks feel cold. I knew it!
This kid doesn't go to court on weekdays, and once he goes to court, nothing good will happen!
All eyes fell on Chen Luo, Ye Heng also smiled and said, "Chen Aiqing, what do you want to play?"
Chen Luo bowed and said: "Please play, open the sea and open the sea!" "Rebuild the Cangwu shipping route!"
As soon as these words were said, the entire court was silent for a moment, and then there were discussions everywhere, and many people's eyes were emitting a light of vigilance.
"No!" At this time, an official stood up, bowed to Ye Heng, and said, "This discussion was made earlier, but it has been concluded!"
"Sea shipping is not feasible!"
Looking at the official, Chen Luo was not angry, but asked lightly, "Why is it not possible?"
"There are thousands of miles of canals in the north and south of my Daxuan!" The official said, "Besides, water transportation is the food and clothing of tens of millions of people, so it is impossible!"
"Fa Xiang!" He looked at Chen Luo, gritted his teeth, and said, "As we all know, both Dongcang City and Wu City are your fiefdoms!"
"Are you doing this for your own personal gain?" "You are worthy of the name of Qingtian, who is biased!"
"Presumptuous!" Before Chen Luo could speak, Ye Heng reprimanded, "The merits of Duke An cannot be slandered by you!"
"Your Majesty, calm down!" Chen Luo said calmly, "I will legislate for the world, so naturally I will not justify myself."
"Cangwu Shipping, the two cities have indeed benefited, and this adult's question is not unreasonable." "So...
Chen Luo took out two memorials from his sleeve, and said: "Please play, Your Majesty will take back the fiefdom of Wucheng!"
"Dongcang City is the sacred fief of my mentor, and I dare not specialize in it, but I have already drawn up the regulations, and all the seaport business of Dongcang City will be transferred to the household department of the main hall."
"Only retain the responsibility of naval guards!" "I hope Your Majesty will grant you!"
Ye Heng was taken aback, and glanced at Hou An. Hou An immediately stepped forward to get the memorial and handed it to Ye Heng. Ye Heng opened it, looked at it, and sighed softly.
"It doesn't have to be..."
"Your Majesty!" Chen Luo shook his head, "Please give me your permission!"
"Your Majesty, An Guogong!" At this time, an official stood up, "I am from Wucheng, so I dare to speak out."
"Wucheng is proud of An Guogong! Taking back Wucheng may hurt the hearts of all believers in Wucheng!"
"Why don't you imitate Dongcang's affairs, and the entry of Wucheng Harbor also belongs to the Ministry of Households, how about it?"
Ye Heng nodded: "It's so good!"
At this time, the official who questioned Chen Luo frowned slightly, and quickly said: "Your Majesty, the matter of opening the sea has not yet been decided, so there is no rush to discuss the matter of the seaport!"
After finishing speaking, he looked at Chen Luo: "Replace the river with the sea, and lose the river with fat sea, what is the law like this!"
Chen Luo smiled lightly: "Who said the sea replaced the river?"
"The truth is that rivers and seas must be developed simultaneously!"
"For example, today, the Wanli Canal has a total of 2,800 miles of ice. Once it enters the northern border, it is even a cargo. It takes three boatmen to break the ice!"
"At this time, the blue sea is rolling, why can't you take the goods?"
The official said: "The boatman breaks the ice, so naturally there is a fee for breaking the ice."
"It is known from the law that the cost of breaking the ice is their food and clothing for the winter!"
"If everyone chooses shipping at this time, what will they do?"
Chen Luo was taken aback for a moment: "Stop chatting with the truth!"
The official panicked Chen Luo, and a sense of complacency suddenly rose in his heart.
I actually refute
Rebuke Duke An!
"The next official is not a war of words. You keep saying that you are for the people of the world, but isn't this action ruining the livelihood of countless people!"
"The river transport does have some inconveniences, but these things will also make the owner of the goods pay two meters more."
"The river worker looks hard, but there are silver taels to earn."
"Fa Xiang is now going to ship by sea, and those cargo owners will inevitably switch to sea transport because of the convenience of sea transport. Even if the court can collect more taxes, it will not harm the river workers!"
"You can't compete with the people for profit, Faxiang!"
After speaking, the official bowed deeply, his tone was mournful, and he looked compassionate.
As soon as this remark was made, the Enjue of many aristocratic and holy families also hurriedly saluted, and said in unison: "Be careful with the law, Your Majesty, think twice!"
Suddenly, many officials echoed.
Ye Heng glanced at Chen Luo with some embarrassment, and Chen Luo winked at Ye Heng. Ye Heng: Huh? This kid is digging a hole again?
Yo Ho Ho, exciting!
It feels like it was when Yan Xiang was there. My youth is back!
So Ye Heng coughed dryly: "Chen Aiqing, do you have anything to say?"
Chen Luo sighed heavily: "Did the silver taels added by the owner end up on the price?" "What? He Gong is a commoner, so the other commoners in the Northland are not commoners?"
"You say that my move is to compete with the people!"
"Okay, this is what you say!"
Chen Luo cupped his hands towards Ye Heng and said, "Your Majesty, please play, open the sea, open the navigation, and rebuild the Cangwu shipping route." "But, please play again, this route is publicly owned by the imperial court!"
"Private boats are not allowed to enter the sea!"
After finishing speaking, he looked at the surprised faces and said with a smile: "Sea transportation will be used as my Daxuan's strategic route to allocate the distribution of bulk cargo from the north to the south."
"Establish the North-South Shipping Bureau, and manage the routes by segment!" "Communication between the North and the South to stabilize prices."
"Under the North-South Shipping Bureau, set up the Hehai Mutual Aid Fund!"
"All related repair expenses such as canal congestion and icing will be borne by the Hehai Mutual Aid Fund!"
"Without the transportation of large quantities of basic materials, the congestion of the canal will be greatly eased, and the efficiency of the canal will be improved."
"Do you think that if you do this, you will still compete with the people?"
"As for the families that are engaged in bulk supplies, the Shipping Bureau will conduct bidding for the required supplies, and you still have your profits, but if you want to seek huge profits like before, I advise you to stop thinking about it!"
"Everything is for the common people!"
"Anyone else have any comments?"
After Chen Luo finished speaking, he looked around the entire hall with cold eyes, no one dared to look at Chen Luo. Afterwards, Chen Luo looked at Ye Heng again, saluted, and used his trump card. "Your Majesty, there are indeed risks in the sea route!"
"I invite you again to set up the Supervision Department, and cooperate with the three law enforcement heavy ships at the bias to cruise the sea and protect our fleet!"
After finishing speaking, Chen Luo seemed to say intentionally or unintentionally: "The private boat of the noble family and the holy clan should not go into the sea again." "So as not to cause any misunderstanding."
"Those ships built by your family will be taken back by the imperial court according to the price! If the imperial court is short of funds, I can personally advance the payment!"
"Guarantee that these families who shelter the people from the wind and rain will not suffer!"
Ye Heng immediately understood what Chen Luo meant, and pretended not to see those who were still arguing, and said directly: "Chen Aiqing, how can you use your private wealth for important national affairs!"
"You are still young, and you still have to get married, which will cost you a lot." "Save all your money!"
"If the Ministry of Household Affairs does not have enough money for this amount, it will come from my internal funds!"
The Manchu officials were speechless when they heard Chen Luo and Ye Heng singing together. Is it about the three melons and two dates?
How did you settle this matter in a few words? At any rate, ask the officials for their opinions!
At this time, a second-class prince of the holy clan suddenly said: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister, we have lived by the sea for generations, and we deeply agree with this move."
"However, the coast of Daxuan is long, and it takes a lot of manpower." "The Ministry of Supervision and Sea must need a lot of experts!" "I would like to raise talents for the imperial court!"
Many people's eyes lit up when they heard the words.
Yes
It doesn't matter what shipping he does, as long as he mixes with his own people. Whether to smuggle or smuggle, just turn a blind eye and close one eye. Chen Luo smiled: "It's true that there is a lack of people, but it's not a problem."
"After subduing the world's water rights, many great sages of the water tribe sent me letters, wanting to work for the court and find a real job."
"It's just right, the Ministry of Supervision and Inspection can let them try!"
"If you want to recommend your children, there is no problem, but let them enter the bias first!" "Without the qualifications of the bias, you are not allowed to join the Ministry of Supervision and Sea!"
After finishing speaking, Chen Luo saluted the second class gentleman again, and said: "Your Excellency understands the righteousness, thank you for your support." "I don't know which family you are from?"
"The truth opens a back door, but it can be admitted to the biased place first."
The second-class gentleman blushed and said in a low voice, "Yue...Yuezhou, Luo family!"
The court proposal to open the sea transport quickly spread throughout the world after the next court, and the world was shocked for a while. Why is it coming, and at the end of the year, there is another big news? Was it played by An Guogong?
That's all right.
An Guogong's memorial must be for the sake of the people, just close your eyes and support it! But on the side of the aristocratic and holy clan, a strange phenomenon happened.
The canal families who originally thought they would strongly oppose each other were very calm, and even a little excited, releasing news of the ship purchase one after another.
Nonsense, in order to prevent congestion in the canal, there are restrictions on boats. Now that the official ships go by sea, wouldn't there be a lot of vacancies.
Besides, the shipping side also bears the cost of repairing and maintaining the canal. In addition, only official ships are used. Although the profit may be less, it can be sold!
In addition, it is also necessary to consider whether the family's main business needs to be adjusted~IndoMTL.com~ One by one, it's all a matter!
On the other hand, the aristocratic and holy families along the coast have a dignified atmosphere. In this way, the most profitable smuggling will be difficult. what to do!
...An Guogong Mansion. Chen Luo let out a long sigh.
With his power, it is not difficult to promote the decision to open the sea in the court. The problem is how to implement it next!
If it's just a noble family, it's easy to handle. Today's Metropolitan Procuratorate is not just a Hai Rui, it's a bunch of mad dogs... No, crazy Xiezhi!
Just let them out. The key is that there are Gu clan!
"Let's see what we can gain!" Chen Luo thought for a while, spread out the paper, picked up the brush, and decided to fill in the hole.
After going through the content in his mind, Chen Luo wrote—
"Eight immortals cross the sea, each showing their magical powers!"
