"Your Majesty, from the perspective of governing the country, it is undoubtedly more beneficial to open up people's wisdom. In the past, all dynasties basically adopted the policy of ignoring the people, but the result was that the people were foolish and the country was weak. For thousands of years, no dynasty had escaped this stalemate. If there was no written inheritance in China, there would be no saints to educate, and the land of civilization would become a wild place. Thinking of this situation can make people creepy, so I established the lord to open up people's wisdom and let the saints educate and spread all directions. If everyone is well-educated and abide by the laws of the Ming Dynasty, why worry about not being rich or not being strong in the country?"

As soon as Zhu Youlang finished speaking, Huang Zongxi stood up.

Huang Zongxi's words are really hard to refute. Especially his sentence "The land of civilization will become a place of wilderness", which is really a scene that no one wants to see.

"Tai Chong, are your words too extreme? The herdsmen are not fools, and no one says they want to exterminate the text and inheritance. Besides, this is something that no one can do." Lu Daqi was dissatisfied and felt that Huang Zongxi's words were too absolute.

"As good as a public servant, the herdsmen are foolish people at the root. If the people are not foolish, how can the herdsmen be? The literati class regards themselves as herders, what is the result? The result is that the administration is corrupt, the people live in poverty, and over time, the people will change. Li Chuan's troubles and chaos in the world for more than ten years, and the Ming Dynasty has almost collapsed. The lessons of the past are beyond thought." Huang Zongxi argued.

"Taichong said this very well. My goal is to drive away the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty; the second is to strive to achieve a prosperous country and strong people, so that the Ming Dynasty will be permanent. The country and the people are prosperous are two aspects, one is a prosperous country and the other is a strong people. The relationship between the two should be that the people can be strong and the country can be rich, but it is definitely not that the people are rich and the people are strong. The opening of the people's wisdom is an important sign of the strong people. The reason why I want to start a newspaper is based on this principle." Zhu Youlang was unwilling to argue on this matter again.

The establishment of newspapers is the progress of civilization, which has been proved by later generations. Why waste your mouth? Old antiques such as Wu Bing and Lu Daqi are accustomed to taking the old path and are unwilling to open up new paths. After all, their ideology and consciousness have historical limitations, and their pattern is far inferior to their own. They may not be convinced if they argue. Then let's be tough and drag them to the new path. As they walk, they will see different scenery. By then, they will find that they are frogs in the well today.

So, after Huang Zongxi finished speaking, he decided without waiting for Lu Daqi and others to refute.

"I obey the order..."

Sure enough, as soon as Zhu Youlang finished speaking, Huang Zongxi, Chen Bangyan, and Chen Zizhuang immediately expressed their obedience, while Lu Daqi, Wu Bing, and Yang Qiaoran also followed suit and did not refute again.

Decisive and no objection, this is prestige.

This kind of prestige was also established bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by bit. It was established through the correct handling of one thing, rather than relying solely on the emperor's prestige.

In fact, Huang Zongxi is the only one who can truly understand Zhu Youlang's thoughts, and Chen Bangyan is blindly following. In this kind of argument, he never expressed his opinions because he saw it very clearly that the emperor's knowledge is too much higher than his ministers, and he just needs to do what the emperor said, and there will be no mistakes.

Chen Zizhuang is between Chen Bangyan and Lu Daqi and others, and he has both admired and awe of the emperor and understood Lu Daqi and others.

Lv Daqi, Wu Bing, and Yang Qiaoran were purely respectful of the emperor, especially the idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor was deeply rooted. Even if the emperor spoke, they would never resist the order. Of course, if the emperor made a mistake in his administration, they would definitely argue with reason. In their opinion, this was the manifestation of loyal ministers.

Unfortunately, since the emperor ascended the throne, he has introduced so many new policies and made so many incredible decisions, and none of them can find fault with them.

...

Zhu Youlang suppressed his objections with his imperial power, and Guizhuang began to study movable type printing with Xu Zhi in accordance with the emperor's will.

Xu Zhi mastered the technique of burning pottery characters and making iron plates, and the emperor's opinion was to ask them to directly study lead characters and make copper plates.

In fact, in the history of movable type printing, the characters of clay, wood, pottery, iron, copper have been used. The cost of making jelly, wood, and pottery is low and very simple. Because it is not strong, the damage rate is too high, so it is gradually eliminated. The characters of iron are not easy to use, too brittle, easy to fold and easily damaged, and the characters of copper are easy to use, but the cost is too high, and it is generally hard to use. Although there are not many commonly used Chinese characters, because of the high repetition rate, many characters of the same character must be made and used for backup. If you start a newspaper, it is impossible to use without 100,000 or even millions of movable types.

Therefore, we must consider both the easy-to-use and the cost issue. Lead movable type completely solves all problems.

The metal, lead, was found in the pre-Qin period and was the main alloy element of bronze ware. The smelting technology is very simple, easy to extract and easy to smel. The province with the largest lead reserves in China is Yunnan, and there is also lead ore in Shaoguan, Guangdong, which can fully meet the current lead usage.

Based on the above factors, Zhu Youlang directly started with lead movable type, saving the time to try other materials to make movable type.

...

The news of the defeat of King Sanshun Guangxi reached Beijing, which immediately caused shock to the Qing Dynasty.

Just now, Dorgon's power was cut off, and Haoge wanted to separate the power vacuum left by Dorgon. In order to ensure that his son succeeded in power, Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang did not give in to the positions of various departments in the central government through Sony and Fan Wencheng, and arranged many confidants.

As a result of the competition, Haoge won a lot of support among the royal family, while the people of Xiaozhuang were distributed in various departments. In other words, Haoge pointed out the military power, while Xiaozhuang occupied the regime.

The emperor of the Eight Banners occupied three banners, Haoge occupied two banners, Jiergalang, Mandahai banner, Luoluhun followed Haoge closely. After this calculation, Haoge also occupied the three banners, and its power was not worse than Dorgon at the time.

This result was within Xiaozhuang's plan, and she was not in a hurry. She had some ways to weaken Haoge and eventually achieve monopoly.

...

After Sony learned of the defeat of Sanshun King, he asked the Empress Dowager to meet the first time.

"This Zhu Youlang is really not simple. The Sanshun King is always fighting old wars, so he actually let him stew it with one spoon! It seems that he really has to deal with him well." Xiaozhuang was very surprised when he heard Sony's report, but he was calm and said in a calm tone.

"Although the Empress Dowager is a woman, she is extremely courageous. In such a big thing, there is no panic at all. Just this determination, I am ashamed of our men." Sony knelt on the ground, secretly admiring her.

"Empress Dowager Zhu Youlang's son is cruel and scheming, and he is indeed an extremely difficult opponent to deal with. You see, he not only killed King Sanshun, but also imitated the story of Yuewang Temple, casting iron in Quanzhou. This move was too ruthless, which made everyone surrendered to the Ming Dynasty and defeated the loyalty of these people in an instant. As the Queen Mother said, this person is not simple." Sony said.
