.,

Emperor Hongzhi was very worried.

When Xiao Jing went to Shuntian Mansion to inspect Jingcha, he summoned Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and Xie Qian.

The four monarchs and ministers sat opposite each other.

Emperor Hongzhi took out a copy of the report and handed it to the three for circulation.

The three of Liu Jian took it, and after a brief look, they understood what was going on.

Prophet of Spring Duck, they are that duck.

Shilin's reaction, they know better than Emperor Hongzhi.

"Your Majesty... hey... the minister thinks that your majesty has the heart of great rule, and this move is quite appropriate, but... after all, it's still too radical."

Liu Jian never opposed Emperor Hongzhi's Jingcha from beginning to end.

How could he not know that this is the biggest maladministration of Ming Dynasty.

No matter how good the government is in the court, no matter how much the emperor loves the people, he can't appease an unscrupulous official who stretches out his hand to hurt a kind people.

But...too much, isn't it always been like this for thousands of years?

During the reign of Emperor Gao, Taizu, he severely punished it for a period of time, but so what? Not as usual and back to the normal state, and in the end, in exchange for eternal infamy, people may not remember that when Emperor Taizu Gao was purged of officials, they will only remember the cruelty of skinning and pretending to be grass.

Emperor Hongzhi frowned and said, "I'm worried that some people will do this wantonly and breed evil words."

This is what Emperor Hongzhi worried about.

After all, the common people do not have much knowledge. Their views on things come from scholars. In their eyes, scholars are learned people who are well-informed. In the patent, it is specifically stated that the reason why the students are not allowed to speak.

The so-called students are not allowed to speak, not that they are not allowed to speak, but that they are not allowed to talk about national affairs. In every township and district, once these people are allowed to speak nonsense about the country's affairs, the influence will be huge.

It's a pity...the emperor couldn't send someone to control everyone's mouth, and soon he died, and no one mentioned this prohibition again.

Emperor Hongzhi took a deep look at Liu Jian and others, and said: "What I am worried about is... there is one more thing. A few days ago, the factory guards arrested a few scholars. Guess what happened to them. Jingcha's comments were published, posted everywhere, and even... even sold...the leader is Chen Jinsong, who is already at large, and after a few days, such publications began to appear again."

This time, it was a complete stabbing of the hornet's nest.

A small Juren is so bold.

"I have already ordered someone to remove Chen Jinsong's student status, but someone seems to be secretly protecting this person. So far, the factory guards have not found any trace of him, but such publications are still being banned repeatedly."

"What... what should I do with these people? Even if Chen Jinsong is punished, there will inevitably be another Li Jinsong, Zhang Jinsong...but... I am doing the right thing."

Emperor Hongzhi deeply felt that there was a force competing with him. This power is colorless and invisible, but it always makes me feel like a stick in my throat.

"Your Majesty, since the Jingcha has started, we can't change it." Liu Jian suddenly said solemnly: "Why don't you do it, but if you do it, if you change it day and night, the prestige of the Tianjia will be gone. It will only encourage some people. At that time, they will not only oppose the Beijing Police, but the next target may be the New Deal, or it may be the Western Seas. If you take a step back, you will step back!"

Liu Jian seemed very calm. He could understand His Majesty's feelings. His Majesty was already hesitant and shaken.

However, as the chief assistant of the cabinet, Liu Jian showed a resolute side: "I am also a scholar, and I can understand the feeling of losing what I got and being taken away by others. But... I am determined to understand, If you don't check the capital and let it go, no matter how many times you go to the West, how many benefits the New Deal brings, after all, all of these will be squandered. I don't agree with Qi Guogong being so radical. Governing a big country is like cooking a small country. Xian, how can you be so casual, but... I have to admit that Duke Qi's direction is right."

Emperor Hongzhi had always trusted Liu Jian, so he listened carefully, nodded and said, "Go on."

Liu Jian is good at judgment. Once he has a judgment, he has the heart to persevere. This is also the reason why he became a cabinet chief assistant scholar.

So Liu Jian was silent for a moment, and then said: "If you use wisdom, you will win ten times as a minister, maybe you have a way."

Everyone subconsciously looked at Li Dongyang.

Li Dongyang sighed in his heart. After all, Mr. Liu made a choice. He really didn't want to stand on the opposite side of all the scholars, so he couldn't help but smiled bitterly, but he still said seriously: "This matter is easy, how dare a mere Juren privately print Publications, then why doesn’t the imperial court print official publications to explain His Majesty’s wishes? The wealth of the imperial court is hundreds of times that of a single person in the district. The imperial court only needs to print out the mansion newspaper and hang it everywhere, which is enough to calm the people. The way of man also heals his body."

Emperor Hongzhi trembled, as if awakened by the words, and immediately said: "This is very kind, not bad, not bad, this is a good way."

Liu Jian and Xie Qian were also stunned, and then they showed a relaxed look. Li Dongyang is really "scheming". Come fight poison with poison.

"This is a good strategy. We have to quickly come up with a charter. The money can be paid from within." Emperor Hongzhi forced a smile, but he finally felt relaxed.

many.

With a decision, Liu Jian and the others left.

It was getting late at this time.

Xiao Jing came back from Shuntian Mansion with a tired face.

He approached Emperor Hongzhi, and seeing Emperor Hongzhi smiling, he couldn't help saying in amazement: "Your Majesty, is there any happy event?"

These days, His Majesty is depressed, and such a smile is rare.

"I told you, but you don't understand either." Emperor Hongzhi pretended.

Xiao Jing didn't ask much, but said: "Your Majesty, in Shuntian Mansion today, the slaves dared to mention to the Duke of Qi what your Majesty is worried about, and the Duke of Qi said that tomorrow he will enter the palace to have an audience, and he wants to relieve your majesty's heart disease."

Emperor Hongzhi was stunned: "Heart disease?"

Immediately, Emperor Hongzhi smiled bitterly: "You, you, you can't keep your mouth shut, you should hit me."

"Yes." Xiao Jing was worried: "The servant will die forever, but the servant is just..."

Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "It's just right, I want to see him tomorrow, it's rare for him to be so painstaking, and I happen to entrust him with some things."

On that day, Emperor Hongzhi took a rest and had the most peaceful sleep in the past few days.

Early the next morning, Fang Jifan entered the palace happily as Xiao Jing said.

Emperor Hongzhi was also very happy to see Fang Jifan.

Fang Jifan was stunned, isn't His Majesty depressed? Why are you still alive and kicking.

Emperor Hongzhi said, "I have something to tell you."

As he said that, he glanced at Xiao Jing: "Call the three of Liu Qing's family first."

Then, he ordered someone to give Fang Jifan a seat.

Fang Jifan waited patiently for a while, and then Liu Jian and the three met.

Emperor Hongzhi and the three of Liu Jian exchanged glances: "Now Shilin is not angry, rumors are everywhere in Beijing, and there are thieves who want to make a fuss about Jingcha. I intend to print the newspapers and periodicals of the mansion into a book and distribute them everywhere to reassure the hearts of the world. ,what do you think?"

Fang Jifan: "..."

This... isn't this a newspaper?

Fuck, Your Majesty is going to run a newspaper.

However... the emergence of newspapers should have been a matter of course. None of the emperors and ministers of the Ming Dynasty was a fuel-efficient lamp. behind.

Now that these two problems have all been resolved, the emergence of newspapers is only a matter of time.

Liu Jian said with a smile: "Duke Qi has always been smart, maybe he has such thoughts a long time ago."

Xie Qian couldn't help being happy too.

Only Li Dongyang is very reserved, he came up with his own ideas, keep a low profile, you just need to praise me, the more modest I am.

Fang Jifan said surprisingly: "This is the words of a scholar!"

The smile on Emperor Hongzhi's face gradually disappeared.

The three of Liu Jian couldn't help being slightly taken aback.

What?

Fang Jifan wanted to laugh, newspaper, I, Fang Jifan, have thought about it a long time ago, if I don’t do this business, do you really think that Fang Jifan is stupid?

In the past life, how many people have dreamed of going back to ancient times, running a newspaper, and dominating public opinion, as if once the newspaper is run, the people of the world will be of one mind with you from now on, and you can even open up the wisdom of the people...

Under the astonished eyes of everyone, Fang Jifan said seriously: "Your Majesty, I dare to ask, if such a large-scale mansion newspaper is published, who will read it?"

Emperor Hongzhi frowned gradually, staring at Fang Jifan fixedly, silent for a moment.

"It's a scholar!" Fang Jifan continued asking himself: "Aren't scholars reading the Four Books and Five Classics? How many words in the Four Books and Five Classics are there to persuade them to be benevolent and righteous? If they follow the Four Books and Five Classics, so what? Your Majesty will make an extra residence newspaper to publish?"

This time, Emperor Hongzhi was really stopped, and other people present were also stunned.

Fang Jifan continued: "The troubles in Shilin are because they feel that what the scholar-bureaucrats should have has been offended, and they regard the Jingcha envoy as a more vicious factory guard, so they are angry. If you can't persuade them with words, how can you make them understand the truth with a report from the mansion?"

"Furthermore!" Fang Jifan paused, and said again: "As for the vast majority of the people, they don't know the big characters, so how can we promote the Mansion Newspaper? Don't we need people who have read to read it to them? Your Majesty, my lord Do not set this precedent, at least not for the time being. As far as scholars are concerned today, there are still a small number of scholars who understand the benefits of Jingchao. It is not only futile and a waste of money to open it rashly, but it will also bring about more newspapers. At that time, they will drag His Majesty to the field they are best at, and spray His Majesty and his sons to death with spit."
