Rule the Roost in the Tang Dynasty: Nine hundred and one official path
"The song last night was pretty good. Why never listen to you sing it? How come a courtier doesn't know it?" After setting off on the second day, Li Zhi held his head after eating breakfast on the Marathon train. , Said Li Hong, who had a headache because of the hangover.
"Erchen sings? Who would dare to listen? Besides, my mother is extremely annoying to my singing, so the son can only entertain herself in the harem." Li Hong leaned his head against the window. , Expecting the cold temperature on the glass to make his head more awake.
Songs like this that are too advanced are obviously impossible to accept in the Tang Dynasty, and even if Li Hong forced the courtiers to listen to his singing, he, as the emperor, could not lose his identity and face. Give the ministers such a song and laugh.
But in any case, this martial arts song from more than a thousand years later, whether it is lyrics or music, still has the boldness and domineering that fits the Tang Dynasty.
Last night, after he finished singing last night, Li Zhi and Wu Mei, who still felt uncomfortable, naturally cared about the situation they were still not exhausted, so they asked Gentle to sing again, although the lyrics are more straightforward and colloquial, But compared to Li Zhi and Wu Mei, who have accepted the art of opera, pure entertainment is better.
Because there are not too many kinds of accompaniment at the moment, there is no need for electronic soundtracks with the addition of images, or these few songs, and with the help of everyone like You Yan Lingbin who helped Li Hong re-arrange, it has integrated more than 1,000 After the complex changes of tunes after the year, and the simple soundtrack of today, it sounds quite different.
And adding the colloquial and straightforward lyrics, and then sing it from the gentle woman who always yearns for high, high, unfair, free ranger life, it is extremely gentle and chivalrous temperament. .
"The red dust is ridiculous, the infatuation is the most boring, and everything is fine. The life is not over, but the heart is no longer disturbed, I just want to get a half-life happy. When I wake up, I laugh at people, forget everything in my dreams, and sigh that it is too dark Early. The next life is unpredictable, love and hate are wiped out, I just want to be happy to be old. No matter how cold the wind is, I don’t want to escape, no matter how beautiful the flower is, I don’t want it. Let me sway. The higher the sky, the smaller the heart, don’t ask. How much cause and effect are, I get drunk alone, cry today, laugh tomorrow, I don’t want anyone to understand, I am proud, singing, dancing, and the night is endless, looking for happiness."
"It's also easy, free and easy, but it's hard to say that you wrote the word?" Li Zhi wrote the lyrics himself this morning, although the word did not make people regurgitate. But looking at these words from time to time, it can be a little lingering.
"No, this should be some remote culture in Lingnan Road, but what we know now is not very clear." Li Hong lowered his head and drank the porridge that Shangguan Wan'er personally brought, and said lightly.
And when he finished speaking, Li Zhi sneered a few times with disdain. He looked down at Li Hong, who was drinking porridge, and then looked at the slowly receding scenery outside the window. He sighed and said, "Oh. …I didn’t expect that there are things that bother you now. The big man is saying that he dares to be daring. When he was the prince, you looked at the world and didn’t put anything in your eyes. How come you have become the ninth-five-year-old queen, instead It's becoming fearful, it's not like your Li Hong style."
It’s been more than 30 years. Since Li Hong made his voice, it’s impossible for him to hum some small tunes from the previous life at this time, but before this, he has never been like these recent Put these on the table like Nian, and even Yan Lingbin couldn't catch the little tune that Li Hongping said occasionally humming from his mouth.
But I can’t catch these light-hearted and complex changes. It doesn’t mean that they are unfamiliar with them during their time with Li Hong. What's more, whether it was or waited, there was something simple in it. Li Hong's shadow is found in the words, sentences and lyrics that he understands, so nowadays, for Li Zhi and others, it is easy to think of Li Hong's work.
And with thirty years of subtle influence, whether it is the palace ladies, eunuchs, Li Zhi, Wu Mei, or Li Hong’s harem women, most of them have actually accepted this art emotionally. .
But their acceptance does not mean that everyone accepts it, nor does it mean that Li Hong is quietly tinkering with this in the harem, and it will not spread out of the palace and reach other people's ears.
"The grievances between you and the scholar-bureaucrats and the five surnames and seven hopes can't stop. Now you don't admit these, are you afraid that those people will use these to attack you?" Wu Mei didn't know when he came over. After sitting down next to Li Zhi, he stabbed Li Hong in the shoulder with the feather duster in his hand and asked.
"Those people are not to be afraid. If the children are afraid of their attacks, they will not want to completely uproot them..."
"Li Hong, you tell me the truth, it just happens that your father is here, so I will ask you, why do you have to force the five surnames and Qiwang to death? You have used them all these years Spreading the traditional culture of the Tang Dynasty, those sub-collections of scriptures and history, and even the annotations of the scriptures of mountains and seas, can cover Goguryeo, Silla, and even the Kingdom of Japan. Now basically the cultural blood of the Tang Dynasty has gradually taken root. Accepted by them, it can even be said that in less than ten years, you have completely wiped out the culture of others, and then spread our culture of Datang. In this way, the five surnames and seven hopes are You Li Hong didn't do anything here, and you can't be convicted of letting you continue to suppress, or even want to completely eliminate it?" Wu Mei glanced at Li Zhi, and asked Li Hong who was drinking a bowl of porridge strangely.
Shangguan Wan'er and others, after hearing Wu Mei’s questioning, including the eunuchs in this carriage, all prepared to retreat, leaving a private space for your Majesty, the Supreme Emperor, and the Empress Dowager to discuss matters. .
But when Shangguan Wan'er just walked to the junction of the carriages, Li Hong called out: "Come over and listen, maybe you can use it later."
Li Hong wiped his mouth. After the hangover, his head became a little more sober and relaxed. After raising his head and moving his neck a few times, he looked at Shangguan Wan'er who was sitting next to him, and then looked at the opposite Li. Zhi and Wu Mei pondered and said, "Do you understand universal education?"
Seeing that the three of them all shook their heads in unison, Li Hong quickly sorted out his thoughts and continued: "The five surnames and the seven Wangs were in charge of the selection of officials in the court. The nine-rank Zhongzheng system and the imperial examination system were in parallel. , They tend to bring more resources to those who are recommended as officials. Compared with the officials from the imperial examination, they have fewer resources and start-ups than the officials recommended by the five wealthy names. The result is that with the promotion, appointment and dismissal of these officials, basically when they reach the upper five ranks, 70% or even 80% of the officials will still come from the five surnames and seven hopes, or other gentry. In this way, The officials in the court are still very easy to form a separate line. There are still the shadows of the five surnames and seven hopes on the court. Similarly, the formation of these officials, although it will not be said that they will form parties in the future, but at least they will promote certain activities in the court. When the surname Qiwang is in the interests of the wealthy and gentry, they will violate the Yin and Yang, or directly veto the decision of the three provinces above the court. Even if it is implemented by the six parts of Shangshu, it is difficult to say that the effect can reach half by then. Right?"
Li Hong held the tea made by Shangguan Wan'er and watched Daddy Long and Long Ma recalling what he had said, and looked out the window without speaking, leaving time for the father and queen to digest.
Time is moving slowly, and the carriage is slowly moving forward on the rails. The green outside the window changes and shapes appear in people’s sight. After a short while, Wu Mei still asks: "That What do you want?"
"What the children want is that all the policies of governing the country come only from the court, not from the influence of the scholar-officials to cause trouble to the court." Li Hong looked at the three people in front of him quietly, his expression became a little bit Dignified and surprised, he continued: "The children can even tolerate the closeness of the relationship between officials and officials, but they will never allow a huge family or power behind the officials to bring resistance to the implementation of the court affairs. "
"If you come like this, who can offer me advice and advice to Tang Dynasty? This governing the world does not use volition. You want to completely put aside those scholar-officials, or the five surnames and seven hopes, and you will encounter bottlenecks in governing the country. , What do you do? I don’t even have a counselor or assistant around IndoMTL.com~ If this is true, then all the officials in the three provinces and six ministries should be killed. Isn’t that the role of officials? If the role and responsibility of officials are Half of them are carried by scholar-bureaucrats or the wealthy and prominent powers behind the officials. That kind of court is dangerous." Li Hong held the transparent crystal tea cup and looked out the window thoughtfully.
Shangguan Wan'er looked at Li Zhi and Wu Mei, and then whispered: "Although your majesty’s thoughts are a bit too extreme, but now my Datang is rising in the world, there is not much peripheral threat. Now I take this opportunity, It is a good time to rectify the court or the scholar-officials and the wealthy and prominent families behind them."
"None of these are important. The important thing is that the world cannot be governed by the royal family and the wealthy and prominent families, but by the royal family and the officials." Li Hong turned his head and looked at Shangguan Wan who supported his position with appreciation. Er said at a glance.
"Where is the difference?" Wu Mei asked faintly. She has always been like this. When she has not figured out one thing, she will always ask more questions than insights. Only when she is sure, she has fully understood After Li Hong's thoughts, she will express her opinions.
Rather than being like Li Zhi, no matter where he hears it, whenever he feels there is a problem, he will immediately raise an objection.
"The difference is that the wealthy and prominent families can only represent the interests of a part of the class, but the officials can represent the interests of the entire world. As long as the five names and seven hopes are completely eliminated, private schools or official schools can be established so that all people have the opportunity to study and pass. Fame, regardless of their background, give them the opportunity to become an official. In this way, it will never last for many years. My Datang official career may come from all walks of life." Li Hong looked at his Long Ma thoughtfully. , Said solemnly.
