Li Shimin nodded, and then said: "In this case, let's set up Yangzhou, Suzhou, Dengzhou, and Quanzhou as pilot areas."
"These four places collect commercial taxes to improve the status of merchants, and merchants' children can participate in the imperial examination."
Li Shimin settled the matter in a few words.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
All the ministers in the Tai Chi Hall saluted one after another.
It can be said that Li Shimin's decision is indeed the most suitable for the current situation.
Let go of all of them at once. If there are no mature rules, there may be situations beyond the control of the court.
Select several places to conduct pilot projects, and study the rules simultaneously.
Once the effects of commercial tax collection in these four regions are very good, the rules have almost been studied.
At that time, it can be fully released.
However, the areas Li Shimin chose are somewhat intriguing.
Needless to say, Yangzhou and Suzhou, Li Ke has already started collecting commercial taxes.
But Li Ke has an imperial decree from Li Shimin as a guarantee, and they have nothing to say.
However, Quanzhou and Dengzhou are different. Some time ago, Li Shimin changed the fiefs of Li Yin and Li You, and sent them to Dengzhou and Quanzhou respectively.
And as far as they knew, the reason why Li Yin and Li You went to Dengzhou and Quanzhou was Li Ke's intention.
When Li Yin went to Dengzhou, the ministers could still figure out Li Ke's thoughts to some extent. It was probably to prepare for Li Shimin's future expedition to Goguryeo and to give credit to Li Yin, his younger brother.
But when Li You went to Quanzhou, everyone really didn't know what Li Ke was thinking.
Li Keke never does meaningless things, so everyone guesses that Quanzhou may have some advantages they don't know about.
Moreover, from the fact that Li Shimin directly chose Dengzhou and Quanzhou to carry out the pilot project, it can be seen that it was obviously determined long ago.
There is no doubt that Li Shimin and Li Ke, the father and son, must have exchanged letters and made plans long ago.
The other ministers were fine and didn't think there was anything wrong.
But Li Chengqian felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a dead fly!
He is the crown prince, the crown prince of the Tang Empire!
But Li Shimin and Li Ke have been in correspondence with each other, and Li Shimin will basically never refuse anything Li Ke said.
But sometimes he said something, but Li Shimin directly refused!
And obviously Li Shimin already knew the figures of the commercial tax, but he had to go to the court to talk about it.
As a result, he was like a clown, and he pretended to be reasonable before.
Looking at it now, I am afraid that in Li Shimin's eyes, he is a clown!
He felt that Li Shimin was too partial, too partial to Li Ke!
If he was still in the Tai Chi Hall now, or in his East Palace, he would have already started smashing things to vent his anger.
But even so, his face was still extremely ugly.
"Since everyone has no objection, then retreat."
Li Shimin glanced at everyone and saw that everyone had no objection, so he left directly.
After he left, he seemed to think of something and said something to the little eunuch beside him.
Hearing this, the little eunuch nodded and returned to the Tai Chi Hall again.
"Master Kong, Your Majesty announces that you will meet at the Palace of Manna."
The little eunuch found Kong Yingda who was going back and conveyed Li Shimin's will.
"Yes."
Kong Yingda was slightly taken aback, then nodded.
He was very puzzled why Li Shimin summoned him alone, but he followed the little eunuch to the Ganlu Hall.
Li Chengqian, Changsun Wuji and others also saw this scene, but they were also puzzled.
"Uncle, what should I do?"
Li Chengqian found Changsun Wuji and asked with an extremely ugly face.
He saw that Li Shimin and Li Ke had a very close relationship, and Li Shimin trusted Li Ke very much.
This is definitely not good news for him.
Moreover, Li Yin and Li You were originally just two unfavored princes and princes, and they were not considered by him at all.
But now he followed behind Li Ke and became Li Ke's right-hand man.
Since Li Ke recommended Li Yin and Li You to go to Dengzhou and Quanzhou, it is obvious that these two people are already under Li Ke's control.
Then, Li Ke has two more fiefdoms for no reason!
Moreover, these two fiefdoms were carefully selected by Li Ke. With Li Ke's behavior style, since these two places were chosen, it must be of great benefit to Li Ke!
Next, Li Ke's power will expand even more rapidly, which will pose a greater threat to him!
"Go back and talk."
Changsun Wuji's expression was also serious, but Tai Chi Hall was not the place to talk about this.
Li Chengqian nodded, and the group left the Tai Chi Hall.
In the Hall of Ganlu.
"See Your Majesty!"
Kong Yingda bowed to Li Shimin.
"I don't know what your Majesty's summoning minister has to order?"
Kong Yingda looked at Li Shimin suspiciously, mainly because he really couldn't think of anything he could be summoned by Li Shimin alone.
"Let's see if this book is suitable as an imperial examination textbook."
Li Shimin signaled to the little eunuch, and the little eunuch immediately took out a book and handed it to Kong Yingda.
Kong Yingda nodded immediately when he heard the words, and the doubt in his eyes dissipated instantly.
It turned out that he was asked to read books, that's okay, this is his major.
He took the book, and when he saw the cover and paper material, he knew that it was printed by Li Ke.
After all, only the printing workshop under 067 Li Ke can print such high-quality and exquisite books.
""Five Classics of Justice"?"
Kong Yingda saw the title of the book on the cover and couldn't help being interested.
"Editor, Wu Wang Li Ke?"
Seeing the author's name, Kong Yingda couldn't help being taken aback.
Is this book edited by Li Ke?Does Li Ke still have this ability?
However, he thought of Li Ke's title of "Poet Sage of the Tang Dynasty" and the "No. [-] Talented Scholar of the Tang Dynasty".
As well as the Romance of the Three Kingdoms serialized in the newspaper, I was relieved immediately.
He also had to admit that Li Ke did seem to have something.
Immediately, he turned to the first page of the book, which was the introduction of the book.
A brief description of the general content of this book, this book is the annotations and lecture notes for the Five Classics.
The table of contents has the page number of each scripture of the Five Classics.
"King Wu is too crazy!"
Seeing this, Kong Yingda felt a little uncomfortable.
Since Li Ke has some talent, but these are the Five Classics, the works of sages.
How old is Li Ke?How many years have you been studying?
Do you dare to comment and lecture on the Five Classics without shame?Too ignorant!
Do you really think that if you can write a few poems and a novel, you can understand the Five Classics?
"Look first."
Li Shimin noticed the change in Kong Yingda's expression, and naturally understood what he was thinking, so he said something lightly.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Hearing this, Kong Yingda immediately resumed expression management, and then looked at it seriously.
When he watched it, he didn't really care about it, thinking that Li Ke wouldn't have any unique understanding.
However, when he saw the first content, as well as Li Ke's notes and handouts on this content, his eyes immediately brightened!
Because the thoughts and opinions expressed by Li Ke coincided with some understandings in his heart!
In just a short moment, he actually had the feeling that he had found a confidant!
What he didn't care about before, what Li Ke was more than heaven and earth, and what Li Ke was too crazy, he forgot all of them in an instant.
Instead, he suddenly had a strong feeling of hatred for seeing Li Ke!
Thinking of Li Chengqian as his student, Li Ke, who is a few months younger than Li Chengqian, has such a deep and unique understanding of the Five Classics.
For a moment, he suddenly felt that Li Chengqian was like a waste compared to Li Ke!
PS: Fourth more! .
Chapter 220 Bring 21 Girls to Yangzhou!In order to survive, don't be shabby!
Kong Yingda was so engrossed that he forgot that he was in the Ganlu Palace, Li Shimin sat on the main seat and looked at him.
He looked at it page by page, and he agreed with Li Ke's thoughts expressed in this book and his understanding of the Five Classics.
Even, some notes and handouts were exactly what he had in mind!
You must know that it is the result of his own pondering for so many years, and no one knows it except him.
There are also many understandings that he has never seen before. He hadn't even thought of such a meaning before, and no one had proposed such an idea before.
But he saw it in the "Five Classics of Justice" edited by Li Ke. What does this mean?
It shows that Li Ke's understanding of the Five Classics is probably the most advanced among all the scholars in the Tang Dynasty!
In the entire Tang Dynasty, no one had a deeper understanding and perception of the Five Classics than Li Ke.
Li Ke's research on the Five Classics is beyond his imagination!
Li Ke compiled this "Five Classics of Justice" not because of his superiority and arrogance, but because he has real talents and real learning!
This is Li Ke's confidence in himself!
He even felt that if this "Five Classics of Justice" were used as a textbook for the imperial examination, the depth of understanding of the five classics would be greatly improved.
And there is no need for a large number of teachers to teach it. It is enough for scholars to buy a copy of "Five Classics of Justice" and read it at home.
After all, the annotations and handouts in this book are the best teachers!
Even after reading this book, he had some enlightenment in his heart, and his understanding of the Five Classics has improved to a higher level.
It is helpful to him, let alone to the vast number of scholars, this is simply a sacred book of imperial examinations!
This meant that Li Ke was not here. If Li Ke were here, seeing Kong Yingda like this, he would definitely not be able to help but laugh out loud.
Because this book itself was written by Kong Yingda himself, some of the understandings in it must be exactly the same as Kong Yingda's!
He just edited this book in advance, but he unexpectedly got Kong Yingda's approval by accident, which can be regarded as a mistake.
"Your Majesty, this "Five Classics of Justice" is simply a divine book for scholars all over the world!"
Kong Yingda said to Li Shimin excitedly.
"If this book is used as a textbook, then the knowledge of my scholars in the Tang Dynasty will be even higher than before!"
Kong Yingda couldn't wait to make this book a textbook appointed by the Tang court.
