Chapter 21 Chapter 126 Confused for a while

Xia Xun's ability in both civil and military affairs is not as good as those officials with professional background. He relies on his sword to take the lead, so information and intelligence are of great significance to his decisions and actions. When an intelligence organization is completely controlled by itself, it consciously separates the flying dragon from the potential dragon, no matter in terms of personnel, establishment, equipment, and salary. Therefore, it is very easy for him to hand over, and there is no need to worry about any entanglement between Feilong and Qianlong, Hu Wei will be aware of it.So he only cleaned up for one night, and handed over the Feilong organization completely to Hu Wei's hands.

He didn't pay too much attention to the matter of the emperor's summoning. His achievements in Liaodong were so outstanding, and the emperor also publicly praised him in the palace. This is his affirmation.As for his violation of official rules, to put it strictly, to frame and kill a minister in this way is a violation of national law. The emperor did not publicly pursue this, but only deprived him of the power to be in charge of secret agents, which is extremely tolerant.When he thought about it, the emperor summoned him after the court meeting just to appease him, lest he think he was out of favor and feel resentful.

But on this point, Xia Xun guessed wrong.Emperor, do you need to care whether your subjects are grateful or complaining?Especially Zhu Di, an emperor with an extremely strong personality, to his courtiers, thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the emperor, but to the emperor, it is the sincere expression of the emperor's joy and anger. He needs to cover up because he cares about the thoughts of a courtier. Are you happy or angry? After the court meeting, when Xia Xun arrived at the Jinshen Hall on time to meet him, he saw several bachelors, including the first assistant university scholar of the cabinet Xie Jin and Yang Rong, and even the master Zuo Shanshi Daoyan, the head of the monk record department, appeared impressively. Then I knew it was not as simple as chatting a few words to appease my emotions.

Sure enough, when all the people arrived, Zhu Di opened the sect and said authentically: Dear dear friends, when the emperor was in the exam, in order to discipline the prince, he ordered the scholars of the dynasty and the great Confucians of the time to adopt the aphorisms of the scriptures and compile them into a book called "The Crown Prince" "Zhao Jian Lu" to teach the prince.Now that I am in a great position, I cannot but pay attention to the affairs of descendants and the foundation of the society. At the beginning, Qin Shihuang taught the prince the law, and the Jin and Yuan emperors taught the prince "Han Feizi" and educated the princes, and they all paid attention to it. Lesson learned.The emperor's study is important for personal use. I want you to use my emperor's examination of "Chu Jun Zhaojian Lu" as the basis, expand it a little, and add my emperor's examination.

The book is full of great scriptures and great methods, which are used to teach the descendants of the royal family, which is of great benefit to their moral character and studies. If the descendants can keep this and do things for the king, they can be a wise king, which is a great contribution.Therefore, today, I summoned all my close ministers, and I hope that Yang Xu, Xie Jin, and Dao Yan, three love ministers, will take the lead and help each other to compile a "Cultural Treasure Book", thinking that it is not easy for future generations of emperors! Xia Xun is no longer the dazed young man he was when he first arrived in Ming Dynasty. Of course, he knew that this matter of culture and education was actually the most important thing in the imperial court in the feudal era. Compiling books by order is by no means a boring thing. It is definitely not just a name in the annals of history, but a real political capital and political power.From the few people summoned by the emperor, it can be seen how much importance is attached to this matter.

All the ministers were overjoyed, and immediately bowed to accept the decree. Xia Xun followed everyone and saluted like a ceremonial, thinking in his mind: Master Daoyan is profound in knowledge, not only presided over the compilation of "Records of Taizu", but also wrote "Records of Daoyu" by himself , refuting the absurdities in the manuscripts of Ercheng (Cheng Hao, Cheng Yi) in the Northern Song Dynasty and Zhu Xi in the Southern Song Dynasty. There are a total of forty-nine articles. Xie Jin, Yang Rong and others are all scholars of the current dynasty, well-read and talented, so it is reasonable to ask them to participate in the compilation of books.Speaking of which, I am the Duke of Fu and only have the status of a scholar, and I still owe it to the blessing of the real Yang Xu. If I were to take the exam, I would not be able to pass the exam. In front of talented scholars, it is not worth mentioning at all. Why do you ask me to participate and let me take the lead?

Xia Xun thought about it over and over again, and finally realized: Yes, the emperor is killing two birds with one stone. Asking me to participate is not only a kind of comfort and compensation after taking away my power as a flying dragon, but also a way to borrow my country's title. As for the official position of the recording department, I, the duke, are more honorable. The emperor wants to compile books for future generations, so naturally he must pay special attention.I'm ashamed, I don't have the skills to write this book, so I put up a name and take advantage of it. After Zhu Di gave orders, all the ministers had different looks. Zhu Di deliberately glanced at Xia Xun, seeing his pensive expression, he couldn't help smiling happily, and said: "Okay, I called you here for this matter."Yang Xu presided over this matter, and then contacted Xie Jin, Master Daoyan and others to prepare for compilation.I still have a thick stack of memorials to approve, so go ahead!

After hearing this, the people hurriedly saluted the emperor, bowed and left the hall. As soon as he left the Jinshen Hall, Xie Jin greeted Xia Xun with beaming eyebrows, cupped his hands and said with a smile: The Duke has been away to Liaodong for more than a year, and Xie misses him very much.Thinking that the Duke had just come back, it was important to reunite with his family, so he didn't come to disturb him. In a few days, he would invite his close friends, treat the Duke to a few glasses of wine, and say goodbye!hehe! Yang Rong, a cabinet scholar, stroked his beard, and said with a smile: When the Duke of the country has drawn up the regulations, he only needs to inform Yang.In my office, there are still a few official documents that need to be dealt with urgently, so I won't disturb you now.Farewell, farewell!

The others also bowed their hands and said goodbye to Xia Xun with a smile. Only Master Daoyan was still standing there, smiling reservedly at Xia Xun, and said: After a long goodbye, the Duke is as handsome as ever, gratifying to congratulate.The poor monk sat in the meditation room for a long time, studied Buddhist scriptures and Buddhist principles, and ignored worldly affairs for a long time. He never thought that he would have the opportunity to participate in grand events with the public. Ask for advice at home. In the court, the size of the power and the level of the position are only consistent in most cases, but there are special cases in every dynasty and generation. Xia Xun did not dare to be arrogant to Dao Yan, and quickly returned the courtesy: "Master, you are welcome, Yang has limited knowledge." In this matter, we need to rely more on the master and all the great scholars. In the future, Yang will come to the abbot of the master and ask the master for advice!

Dao Yan smiled slightly, and said together: "Farewell!" Xia Xun didn't notice that people like Dao Yan and Xie Jin who participated in the compilation of "Taizu Shilu" used to write biographies for the first emperor of Ming Dynasty, but now they write words for the descendants of the royal family. I'm happier than last time. He returned the gift, and then walked out, only thinking in his heart: Compile the book?When will I be asked to participate in the compilation of "Yongle Dadian", that will be a cultural event worth participating in.It is said that the "Yongle Dadian" has more than 20,000 volumes, more than 10,000 volumes, and hundreds of millions of characters, all of which are hand-copied word by word. The compilation of "Yongle Dadian" is about to start, right?This is a treasure ship that integrates ancient Chinese civilization and culture. How can we think of a way to make a few more copies of "Yongle Dadian" in the world, so as not to lose these cultural treasures for no reason?

Thinking all the way, Xia Xun returned to his mansion, got off his horse, and handed the horse to the guards. Just as he stepped into the gate, an old man with a white beard walked towards him angrily, followed by Su Ying, Zi Qi and Xiao Di , Su Ying blushed and called repeatedly: Dr. Su, please stay a little longer. They are all naughty girls. I will definitely discipline them well. Doctor, please don’t be angry. Zi Qi and Xiao Di cheered, but one of them couldn't help laughing, the other covered his small mouth, his eyes were crescent, obviously they were snickering. Xia Xun took a look at the old master and recognized him as Mr. Xixi invited by his family.This gentleman is not an ordinary person, his name is Su Hanchen, he is a doctor of Guozijian, and he came to teach at Fuguogong's mansion, not for the sake of Yang's family, but for his Fuguogong's face, now take a look at the old gentleman Looking desperate, Xia Xun knew that it was her precious daughter who made her husband angry again, so she hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, and said with a smile: "Dr. Su, please stay, but the little girl is so naughty, did you make your husband angry?" Don't look at Xia Xun being such a high-ranking official outside, if you meet someone like Dr. Su on the road, you have to stand still at a distance and salute him by the side of the road, but if you invite someone to be a gentleman at home, you have to treat him well If you are a guest, you can't make it up, even the emperor is like this, pity the parents of the world. When Dr. Su saw Xia Xun, his face swelled red, he blew his beard and stared and said: "Duke, look at it, look at it, the old man has taught countless disciples in his life, and peaches and plums are all over the world, but he has never seen such a naughty Duke Ling, Please be smart, I really can't teach them! Xia Xun looked up and down, left and right, and looked carefully for a long time before he said in surprise: Master, isn't this very good, what happened? Dr. Su patted his forehead and said, "I'm so confused, please look at it, my lord, this is Lingmei's masterpiece!" Su Hanchen turned around and stretched out his arms. Xia Xun couldn't help laughing when he saw it.Master Su was wearing a moon-white spring shirt. The white shirt was as elegant as a fairy.Now the back of the shirt is actually full of patterns, such as toads swallowing insects, turtles shrinking their necks, chickens pecking at rice, and there are two little girls with braids upside down, standing proudly with swords on their backs, kneeling in front of them. An old gentleman with a bruised nose and a swollen face Not to mention, whether it's characters or animals, they are all painted with both form and spirit. Su Xueshi turned around angrily, and said, "Duke, you have seen it, the two girls are so stubborn, and they don't respect the teacher, how can I teach this old man?" As soon as he turned around, Xia Xun quickly put away the smile on his face, coughed, and said seriously to Su Ying who had just rushed to the front and was standing there embarrassingly: "Look at your two precious daughters who pissed off our husband." , what a system!Quickly bring my lake-silk cloud-patterned robe and put it on, sir! After Xia Xun finished speaking, he turned to Dr. Su, said haha, and said with a smile on his face: "Sir, don't be annoyed, the little girl is stubborn, and she just needs to be taught by a teacher like Mr. Don't worry, Mr., I will definitely discipline them well. Mr. Please come here first." Drinking a cup of tea in the living room, he calmed down and said that he ignored Dr. Su's anger, and walked to the living room with him
