Chapter 101 How to deal with Confucian scholars?

The Kong Mansion’s search was a search, but is it done after the Kong Mansion’s search?

This time, the Confucius Mansion incident has been widely affected, and if handled slightly inappropriately, it will cause constant trouble.

The following are several issues that need to be solved urgently:

First, the Song Dynasty official newspaper criticized the Confucius Mansion for committing crimes and was smashed by Confucian scholars. The credibility of the Song Dynasty official newspaper was challenged by the people. Some Confucian scholars accused the Song Dynasty official newspaper of being controlled by Shi Ziming.

Second, the Dasong Di newspaper office that was smashed cannot operate normally now, and the information that the capital was about to release was seriously hindered.

Third, the Confucian scholars were thrown into prison. What should we do next? The number of Confucian scholars involved in the smashing this time was as high as 50,000. Such a number could form a huge army. These people were all intellectuals of the Song Dynasty, and in the words of later generations, they were all elite talents.

Regarding the first and second questions, Xu Churen told Zhao Huan that a Beijing Express could be established under the Song Dynasty Commercial Bank, which would be claimed by the Political Affairs Hall and issued a public letter to the public.

In order to obtain the emperor's consent, he further clarified the significance of the Beijing Express, saying that the main responsibility of the Beijing Express is to specifically publish the events that occurred in Tokyo to the public, and no other places will interfere, which is different from the Dasong Mansion newspaper, which can publish events across the country.

In fact, the Zhengshi Hall certainly wanted to interfere with national public opinion, but the emperor's mother-in-law's newspaper had already taken the lead in front. Now the Zhengshi Hall wants to take the initiative in its own hands and have to settle for the second best. Moreover, this time the Confucius Mansion incident is an opportunity.

Zhao Huan thought for a moment, and felt that Xu Churen's proposal was feasible. It not only solved the current problem, but also considered to be a match for the Dasong Dean. Anyway, whether it is from the Hanlin Academy or the Zhengshi Hall, it is all from Zhao Huan.

So I immediately went to do this. In the past, the government affairs hall was very efficient and had to work hard for a long time for a small matter. But now with the Hanlin Academy as an opponent and the emperor's unprecedented task, my husbands all seemed to have been injected with chicken blood, and the entire East Mansion seemed crazy.

The address of the Beijing Express was not decided, so he temporarily released a page from the Political Affairs Hall and began to print in large quantities. At the same time, the official documents were quickly sent to various places, and began to be printed in various prefectures and counties, and sold to the public in the name of the Political Affairs Hall Beijing Express.

In this way, Zhao Huan sold a good subscription through the Beijing Express, and he really envied those failed authors in the future.

Before the sale of this Beijing Express, it was widely publicized that it was sponsored by the East Government Government Affairs Hall and it was absolutely official and authoritative.

As soon as the Beijing Express was released, the whole country was in an uproar. People had to believe that all the crimes about the Confucius Mansion published in the extended version of the Song Dynasty newspaper were true.

For a moment, scholars on the street beat their chests and stamped their feet, cried and shouted, as if their parents had died.

Some people are even insane and start burning the Confucian classics in their homes, while others jump into the river to commit suicide, feeling that what they have learned since childhood has become a joke.

Of course, there are also those with good mentality who agree with the relationship between the Confucius Mansion and Confucius in the capital Express. The descendants were unworthy and had such bastards. They did not have academic problems with saints, but rather that these scums of Confucius Mansion relied on their power to destroy the reputation of the saints. They should be abolished. Today, when the son of the saints was wise, he invited Confucius into the Temple of Heroes.

Now the people's resistance to the Song Dynasty's official newspapers has rapidly weakened, and the official newspapers in various places have gradually begun to return to normal.

There is another thing in front of Zhao Huan. How to deal with more than 50,000 Confucian scholars?

If the law does not punish the masses, just let it go?

This is obviously not Zhao Huan's style. Confucian scholars dare to smash the emperor's things, but they are just fighting against the emperor. If they just forget it, the series of new policies that the emperor will implement in the future will encounter similar resistance. Could it be that?

Liu Yanzong knew the emperor's thoughts very well, Qin Hui also knew the emperor's thoughts very well, and Shi Ziming also knew what the emperor was thinking very well. The ministers of the two palaces naturally knew the emperor's mood. If they did not give an explanation, this matter would probably develop in the worst direction.

The emperor is not allowed to learn from Qin Shihuang to "burn books and bury scholars", and then the big Song Dynasty will be over, so the ministers of the two palaces are also nervous and must stop the emperor from killing, but what to do? They can't be locked up all of them, for more than ten years, right?

This is really a waste of talent. Some of these Confucian scholars have fame and fortune. They have studied hard for ten years and have a bright future, which is also useful to the country.

In the emperor's imperial study, the Censor He Ye was in front of the ministers of the two prefectures. He opened his mouth and spoke, and at least he would make the ministers of the two prefectures sweat on their foreheads.

"Your Majesty, the Confucian scholar dares to smash the Song Dynasty's residence, so he openly despises the emperor's majesty. I think he should kill all of them to serve as a warning to others!"

"No!" Wang Boyan quickly stood up, "If the court slaughtered Confucian scholars, it would inevitably cause turmoil in the world. I think it could be fined for Confucian scholars. On the one hand, it was to warn them, and on the other hand, the court also had an income."

Zhao Huan looked at Wang Boyan differently, and he still had to put pressure on them, otherwise he would still have the motivation to make money? Look, the prime minister is now stretching his neck and trying his best to find ways to make money, and even here can think of making money.

Zhao Huan was not in a hurry to express his opinion, Xu Churen hurriedly said: "I am asking you, Your Majesty, this is the best of both worlds. The Confucian scholars have also been warned and the court has benefited."

When it comes to making money, the Zhou Dynasty of the Ministry of Revenue was naturally the happiest. He hurriedly said: "I am asking you, Your Majesty, I think each person should be fined 100 guan, totaling 5 million guan!"

As soon as Zhou Chao said this number, all the ministers present were moved. Last year, Tong Guan spent more than one million yuan to buy Yan Yun. Although it was an empty city, it also showed that it was a huge size of five million yuan.

From Zhao Huan's perspective, the 100-month monstrous rule of the Song Dynasty is equivalent to nearly 100,000 yuan in later generations. This is really too little. If you smash the imperial government, you will be fined such a little money?

Liu Yanzong came out and said, "Your Majesty, I think that punishment is a must-have punishment, but it cannot be as simple as punishment. If you despise the emperor's majesty and just fine, then there is no deterrent power for those who go to the household. Among these Confucian scholars, many of them are children of homes, and one hundred coins are as simple as being between the teeth of them."

The ministers began to scold Liu Yanzong in their hearts again, and were encouraging the emperor to do bad things.

"Liu Qing thought?"

"I think each person has 1,000 guan! I will be sent to the southwest and Lingnan areas where the imperial court will build private schools. All Confucian scholars must be voluntarily taught. Except for the most basic food and accommodation, the imperial court will not pay any money!"

Why? Hearing that he was about to be sent to the frontier again, he quickly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, you must not. The southwest and Lingnan are both wilderness edges, and it is difficult for Confucian scholars to adapt. If you are there for a long time, you will inevitably have the worries of life."

Shi Ziming quickly stood up and said, "Your Xianggong is so bad. There are people from the Song Dynasty in Lingnan and the southwest. Others can survive there, why do these Confucian scholars have the worries of life?"

"You are making a point of reasoning! Confucian scholars have been practicing the books of sages since childhood and do not do hard work. How can those remote people compare with them?"

"Honor He, the remote commoner is also a descendant of my Song Dynasty. The emperor shines with the sun and moon, and is born by his parents. How come he has become an ant that can be despised at any time when he is there!"

"you!"
