Chapter 221: Seventy Thousand Civil Servants And Nearly One Million Confucian Students Compete For T
However, although Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to understand, the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Chong, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes still looked puzzled.
King Yan Zhu Di immediately stood up, and after giving a slight salute to Yan Changqing, he further asked:
"If we compare not an individual's control over an individual's right to speak in public opinion, but a comparison between an individual's control over a group, and a group's control over the team's right to speak public opinion, then there should be no group that can compare to the father who controls the Ming Empire. ?!!"
"After all, no matter how big other people's groups are, can they be bigger than the Ming Empire controlled by my father?!!"
"If so, then the other party is not a group, but an empire larger than the Ming Empire!!!"
"With such an imperial group that is even larger than the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that even if the Ming Dynasty wants to be able to accommodate them, it will be powerless!!!"
Upon hearing Zhu Di's inquiry, Yan Changqing looked at him meaningfully and asked:
"Really not?!!"
Zhu Di frowned, but before Zhu Di could ask further questions, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting at the back, had already opened his mouth to answer for Yan Changqing.
“There are indeed such groups.
"The group that has always controlled the right to speak in public opinion is the cowardice that has remained unchanged for thousands of years!!!"
Hearing this, Yan Changqing smiled.
The reason why he has never made it clear which group controls the right to speak in public opinion is to guide Zhu Yuanzhang, or the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes, so that they can tell the answer personally. !
After all, Confucianism holds the right to speak in public opinion. His answer can easily be understood as deliberately targeting Confucianism.
After all, he doesn't like Confucianism, and he even disparages and targets Confucianism not once or twice.
This is well known to Zhu Yuanzhang, Empress Ma, and the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Cang, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di, etc.
Therefore, this answer cannot be said by him. It can only be given by Zhu Yuanzhang, or the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes after their own thinking.
Find the answer and tell it yourself.
The answer you get in this way will be more convincing!
At the same time, Zhu Biao was stunned when he heard the answer given by Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Di was stunned, and all the princes including Zhu Di and Zhu Fan were also stunned.
Confucianism?!!
Confucianism is a group that actually controls the right to speak in public opinion?!
The Emperor’s right to speak in public opinion is actually not as good as Confucianism’s right to speak in public opinion?!
The eyes of the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes were full of doubt and disbelief.
Especially Prince Zhu Biao, he can be said to have received the most orthodox and complete Confucian emperor education!!!
From this perspective, he can also be said to be a member of Confucianism.
But he never imagined that it was Confucianism that had robbed the right of public opinion in the power of the emperor.
Do Confucians have such great abilities?!!
Zhu Yuanzhang ignored the shocked princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes. He raised his head seriously and seriously but also with deep doubts, looked at Yan Changqing and asked:
"The group that we can definitely grasp and control the right to speak in public opinion is Confucianism!!!"
"But, as Lao Si said, although the Confucian group is large, it is not as big as our Ming Dynasty!!!"
"We are in charge of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers in the Ming Dynasty, and we govern nearly 60 million people of the Ming Dynasty. Every word and deed can affect the entire world!!!"
"But why even so, in terms of grasping and controlling the right to speak in public opinion, we are still not as good as that Confucian?!!"
“We just don’t understand how Confucianism can take the right to speak out in public opinion away from us!!!”
Facing Zhu Yuanzhang's question, Yan Changqing turned around and wrote the numbers [2+5] and [50100] on the blackboard wall behind him.
Then Yan Changqing turned around and replied calmly:
"In fact, it is very simple. It is the difference in the power of public opinion caused by the number of people in the world who can speak for themselves!!!"
"For example, Your Majesty, the reason why you are able to take charge of the Ming Dynasty's thousands of miles of mountains and rivers and govern the nearly 60 million people under your control is so that your every word and deed can be communicated to all parts of the world, so that the 60 million people of the Ming Dynasty can know it."
"What are you relying on?!!"
Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang felt as if he was struck by lightning. His body froze, and he immediately understood what Yan Changqing wanted to say, and even understood why his control over the right to speak in public opinion was not as good as that of Confucianism. .
Yan Changqing on the podium ignored Zhu Yuanzhang's realization at this moment. He reached out sideways and tapped the number [2+5] on the blackboard, indicating that the key point is here.
He continued to explain:
"It relies on the fact that the capital of the Ming Dynasty and the local provinces, prefectures and counties have a total of 20,000 civil servants and 50,000 subordinate staff!!!"
"In other words, the reason why your Majesty's words and deeds are able to be followed and recognized by millions of people is mainly because of the 20,000 civil servants and 50,000 subordinate staff who serve as His Majesty's mouth!!!"
“Through the twenty thousand civil servants and fifty thousand subordinate officials who echo, recognize and promote the words spoken by His Majesty and the policies implemented by the State, in the end, only the words spoken by the Majesty and the policies implemented by the Ming Dynasty can be heard among millions of people in the Ming Dynasty. It caused waves and frenzy.
"Similarly, in the end, it was mainly through the guidance and control of public opinion in the Ming Dynasty through the 20,000 civil servants and 50,000 subordinate officials."
"Only tens of millions of people in the Ming Dynasty will follow His Majesty's requirements and the requirements of the 20,000 civil servants and 50,000 subordinates to express what they say, what they agree with, and what they reject, so as to ultimately achieve the purpose of controlling public opinion. !!!"
"Such behavior is a manifestation of controlling the right to speak in public opinion...
"But what about Confucianism?!!"
Yan Changqing's right index finger moved to the two numbers [50100] again and tapped, and his tone rose twice again and he said:
"The total number of literary students in the world, as well as the number of Confucian students currently studying, is approximately between 500,000 and 1 million."
"And these literary students and Confucian students can all be understood as the words of Confucianism!!!"
"Your Majesty can guide and control the public opinion in Dayin through 20,000 civil servants and 50,000 subordinate staff."
"This will allow the tens of millions of people in the Ming Dynasty to express what they say, agree with what they say, and reject what they say in accordance with the requirements of His Majesty and the requirements of the 20,000 civil servants and 50,000 subordinate officials."
"But Confucianism was able to guide and control public opinion in the Ming Dynasty through these hundreds of thousands or nearly one million literary students and Confucian scholars."
"This allows tens of millions of people in the Ming Dynasty to agree with, express, and reject any speech according to their requirements!!!"
"In the same place, the same policy, the same thing, there may be only one civil servant who occasionally says it is a good thing, but there are seven or eight literary and Confucian students who constantly say it is a bad thing."
"You think, in the end, people will most likely believe what he says?!!"
"And the more important point is that, in essence, the 20,000 civil servants and 50,000 subordinate officials are actually Confucian people!!!"
"When the words spoken by His Majesty, or the national policies implemented, harm the interests of Confucianism and harm their interests."
"Then it is probably unknown whether the 20,000 civil servants and 50,000 subordinate staff can continue to serve His Majesty wholeheartedly."
"If we say that His Majesty's personal influence and credibility are the aggregate of the influence and credibility of the imperial court represented by the 20,000 civil servants and 50,000 subordinate staff.
"Then the influence and credibility of Confucianism are the credibility and influence that Confucianism has inherited for thousands of years, as well as the influence and credibility of Confucian students in the next few decades. A combination of the two!!!"
"If we measure and compare in this way, it will naturally be self-evident who has greater influence and credibility in the end."
"I think you should also understand why the right to speak in public opinion is in the hands of Confucianism."
