Chapter 1470 Outline
Chapter 1,470 Summary
Su Song and Chao Buzhi were demoted to the Ministry of Industry by Zhao Xu because their attitude towards the Liao was too "soft". But now, only Su Song and Su You can handle the "Liao Guotong" in the DPRK, so they issued an imperial edict. Ming Fusong was appointed to the Taichang Liyuan, and worked with Su You to deal with the Liao envoys.
This order was very unreasonable. Sima Guang, a veteran of the Ministry of Rites, immediately wrote a letter to object, saying that Su You was a Yuanrong of the four dynasties of the country and had a long history of meritorious service. He should not accompany foreign ministers to avoid being looked down upon by the Liao people.
However, Gao Taotao still won the letter and summoned Sima Guang alone.
In Yiying Pavilion, Zhao Xu sat on the side of the curtain, looking down at several cases with an expressionless face.
Sima Guang was dissatisfied with the Queen Mother's delay in issuing Su You's appointment: "Although Su You is still young, he has been an official for four dynasties and has never seen any selfishness in his life. The old minister once had four talents, such as Su You. It can be said that he has both ability and political integrity.”
"However, he was an indifferent and humble person, and he was unruly in advancing and retreating. Therefore, he rarely served in the court. Every time he went to troubled places on the outside, he helped eliminate disasters for the Song Dynasty."
"What's even more valuable is that those who are not only capable in their respective positions, but also able to contribute to the court, are sure to hit the mark with whatever suggestions they make."
"Even in terms of his qualifications, he is not a person who can be discarded. When the government and the public heard about his appointment, they all celebrated with brows and hands, happy to have this person in the court."
"Two months after entering the court, I had a discussion with my ministers and Mr. Lu in front of the emperor. The Empress Dowager and Your Majesty also observed his ability and praised him several times."
"However, there is no edict issued so far, and if the ministers hear about what he has done, they will either tie him up with the official property of the inner palace, or humiliate him with the position of leading his companions."
"How can I, Liang Huahan, who is the leader of the imperial court, be used as a slave and companion? I deeply feel sorry for the Empress Dowager and Your Majesty!"
"If there is no position for him, then I should avoid my position and serve as censor Zhongcheng. If the old minister is stupid and dead, it is a shame to list him in front of him!"
Zhao Xu raised his head and looked curiously at the frothing old man in front of him, and his impressions of him immediately exploded.
What the old man said was actually what he had wanted to say for a long time.
However, after hearing a slight cough from behind the curtain, Zhao Xu quickly lowered his head and assumed the expression of a puppet again.
Gao Taotao seemed to be considering his words, and after a moment he said: "Bachelor, I got distracted. What Su You did is really an important matter."
"Rebellions between clans and relatives have existed in the annals of history since ancient times. After a hundred years since the founding of the country, the population has multiplied and has become a burden to the Song Dynasty."
"However, Xianggong Anshi reduced the royal family's expenses and showed his kindness, but he ignored the emperor's five servants [Biquge www.biqugetv.co], but how can it be a favor?!"
"Back then, the imperial family of the Song Dynasty outside Xuande Gate cried when they held the king's head in front of his horse. I was in the palace, but I also heard about it!"
"So Situ asked for the establishment of the Royal Institute of Technology to teach him skills and to accept the four properties to establish his career."
"With the honor of the clan, I am in charge of the four people. Fortunately, after more than 20 years, I can stand on my own."
"However, Situ said that it is not enough for the clan to be self-reliant. It should be the same as the four people of the country, pay taxes and pay taxes, and serve as slaves. Only in this way can the clan surnamed Zhao set an example for the world."
"The language of "Ethical Training" is simple and clear, and I can understand it. One of the sentences, "If a crown is crowned, it will bear its weight," which I deeply agree with."
"Therefore, the analysis of industry and the self-reliance of clan nobles and nobles are the foundation of our emperor, Song Dynasty and hundreds of generations."
"Although I am a close relative of the family and have the same wealth as the people, the annual income of the imperial court can be increased by six million yuan a year."
"Bachelor, Situ supports my move. Don't you want to support my move?"
Sima Guang was really moved at this moment. He leaned over and saluted, with a bit of sobs in his voice: "This is a virtue that has never been seen in China for thousands of years. If the Empress Dowager dares to do this, the Song Dynasty will be glorious for thousands of years. I am ignorant, how can I not praise it?" Follow it."
Gao Taotao was almost moved by himself and sighed: "So I have to trouble Situ for the last step of helping the clan members."
"There is no way around this. Bachelor, in terms of talent and morality, looking at the world, is there anyone more worthy of my trust than him?"
Sima Guang hurriedly bowed: "I am an old minister who is stupid and misunderstood the original intention of the Empress Dowager. I am extremely ashamed."
"It is indeed a most important and great undertaking to enable the clan to choose their career freely, not to worry about the imperial court, to preserve the family's moral relations, and to set an example for all generations."
Gao Taotao then said: "Let him deal with the Liao people, that's actually why."
"This is Situ's request, not an appointment from me. Because Situ said that what the people of Liao want is nothing but profit. And those who do business with Liao are mainly experts in Sitong."
"And Sitong's business has been analyzed recently. If the Liao people take advantage of the opportunity and take advantage of it, the situation will be very bad... Bachelor, can you find someone who understands Sitong better than Situ and is good at dealing with the Liao country?"
?"
In fact, Sima Guang also had a fear of Liao deep in his heart, which was an eternal pain in the hearts of the older generation of officials in the Song Dynasty.
In the second year of Qingli, the Liao people took advantage of the rebellion in Xixia to plunder and doubled their annual coins. It was Sima Guangzheng who was an angry young man in his twenties.
Afterwards, Shaanxi collapsed. Sima Guang followed his father around Shaanxi and witnessed the cruelty of the war and the disastrous defeat of the Song Dynasty. He also witnessed the heavy burden that the imperial court placed on the people of Shaanxi in order to deal with border troubles. He finally recognized the reality and became a resolute leader in the court.
Anti-war faction.
Until Su Youweizhou used his own body to lure him and successfully resisted the enemy, he then seized the opportunity to restore Shaanxi's economy, then cooperated with Wang Shao to open Qingtang, and cooperated with Zhong'e to establish Hengshan.
It took a dazzling combination of punches to finally curb Xia Ren's arrogance.
It is extremely dangerous.
When I was in Luoyang, I also witnessed the worries and panic of the people of Shaanxi during that period.
So he knew deeply how difficult it was for the Song Dynasty to reverse its national power.
Compared with Xixia, the Liao Kingdom was ten times more powerful.
Now that Sima Guang is in a position that is no longer a high-level institution, he can just point out the shortcomings and ask the relevant departments to solve them, and then get over it.
After pondering for a long time, I didn't have anyone like this in my pocket. People in the new party might be able, but I didn't trust him in the end.
Sima Guang finally sighed: "Talent is extremely difficult."
Gao Taotao said: "Yes, talent is very difficult, so I still want to use su oil to do this very difficult thing."
"Liang Weijian took a look at the regulations for the capital's university hall that Situ made the day before yesterday and showed them with the bachelors."
Liang Weijian came over holding a big book as thick as three fingers: "Bachelor."
Sima Guang was holding the "Outline of the Articles for the Establishment of the Capital University" which weighed several kilograms. Everyone was dumbfounded: "This...is this article? I can't read it like this..."
Gao Taotao said: "Please take the bachelor back and take a closer look. But there is only this one, so be sure to keep it carefully."
"No, no, no..." Sima Guang looked around and came to Zhao Xu: "I would like to lend you a few cases for your Majesty's use."
Regarding the fact that the first thing Su You did when he entered the palace was to adjust Zhao Xu's seat, Sima Guang and Lu Gong secretly called it a fluke afterwards.
After all, I still regard His Majesty as an ignorant child in my heart. If Zhao Xu were a few years older, they would definitely have discovered this problem on the first day they met.
Fortunately, Su You discovered it in time and corrected it, otherwise everyone would stick out their butts at Zhao Xu every time they entered the palace.
It's disrespectful to say it, and there's no guarantee that the kid won't take it down in his mind and settle old scores after he takes office.
The two old men were both honest and sincere gentlemen. They would not think that Su You's move was too clever and too slick. Instead, they felt ashamed and blamed themselves.
In the final analysis, I am still not loyal enough to His Majesty. Otherwise, why would Su Mingrun be able to find the problem but I would ignore it?
However, after that incident, Sima Guang and Lu Gongzhu began to pay more attention to their attitudes towards Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu still had no expression on his face: "Bachelor, please help yourself."
After saying this, he politely stood up and stood aside, because Sima Guang would have to bend down for a long time while he was reading while standing, which would make him look like he was being disrespected by Sima Guang.
Gao Taotao behind the curtain saw this scene and couldn't help but nodded slightly with satisfaction. This grandson is actually very smart.
This article is in the standard science and engineering book format, with an overview, chapters, page numbers, and examples for easy indexing.
Sima Guang only read the chapter carefully and couldn't help but be moved: "Empress Dowager, if you can do it, this will naturally be a grand event in the Song Dynasty. But I don't ask the teacher first, I only ask where the funds come from?"
"As far as I know, the cost of research and development of scientific and engineering achievements is not a small sum of money. Even if it costs tens of millions of dollars, it cannot be obtained suddenly."
"Those instruments are the same. I heard Mingrun say in Luoyang that a sixth-generation precision machine tool costs more than 3,000 yuan per bearing."
Every drum-shaped ball in that machine tool bearing was turned out with a machine tool. Because the material is hard and the processing precision is extremely high, it also leads to an extremely high scrap rate. It is the top processing tool in Song Dynasty today.
The power used by that machine tool was electrical energy. Zhang Tianshi finally invented the brush and paper-wrapped capacitor rectifier and voltage stabilizer, which solved the problem of alternating current changing into direct current and reducing the peaks and valleys of radio waves, and could drive a DC motor.
Compared with other power machinery, the biggest advantage of motors is their stability. The first thing that the experts from the polytechnic think of is to use them to improve the accuracy of machine tools.
Zhang Tianshi expressed great dissatisfaction with the Institute of Technology for using the direct current that he had worked so hard to invent in physics.
Because when he came up with this thing, his original intention was to build a smelting furnace that only used ore without coal, or that coal was only used as a reducing agent instead of fuel, without the need to blow in a large amount of hot air, in order to obtain a higher furnace temperature. temperature to smelt these five precious metals "vaguely like".
However, the protest is invalid.
