Chapter 1044: The Learning of the Great Song Dynasty
"Xu'er, please try other ways of writing? For example, look at me in a more vernacular way: "Every morning, I hug the sun, kiss the sky, and start a new day in a happy and beautiful way."
Zhao Xu and Zhao Yun stared at Zhao Zhen with big eyes, and finally the Sancai on the side spoke first: "The official said it well! This is the skillful article. Even I, a servant who has never read much, knows it!"
It can only be said that the scene was awkward for a while, but in the end the Taliban spoke in surprise: "Your Majesty's articles are quite good at prose skills in ancient Rome, which is really amazing!"
Zhao Zhen smiled and shrugged: "This is a gift. I am not only proficient in investigating things, but also hunt down Europa articles and languages. Europa people often write poems to praise life, and the same is true for China. I think the two are also interconnected, right?"
The Taliban bowed and said, "Your Majesty's erudition and thoughts are like countless stars in the night sky, vast and profound, and my subordinates admire them!"
Sancai whispered a "flatter" and walked towards the palace gate. He wanted to go to the Hanlin Academy to bring back the next remarks of the government affairs of the government today. Every month on the new year, the two palace ministers were busy.
After the grand dynasty meeting, not only should the subsequent plans be listed, but they should also be handed over to the officials for approval. Of course, many people have to say sour words behind this, but they are secretly happy in their hearts, because not only the officials of the two governments should do this, but even some seemingly insignificant dispatch officials have to hand over their plans.
What Zhao Zhen likes to do most is to enter the Chongwen Courtyard in the palace after the court meeting, which is the place for the collection of books in the palace. Zhao Zhen wants to thank this era for the large number of fine books concentrated in the wisdom palace he built, and for the nobleness of scholars in this era.
The printing technology of the Song Dynasty has developed very well. Zhao Zhen has collected all the precious books in Chongwen Courtyard. The reprinted versions stored in the Wisdom Palace are all reprinted. Zhao Zhen is the emperor of the Song Dynasty. He has the right to store these precious rare and lonely books in his library and in his own small world...
Zhao Zhen often comes to his children. Facing the vast number of books, the biggest question between Zhao Xu and Zhao Yun is how his father brought these books from all over the world?!
Of course they didn't know that Zhao Zhen began to develop this habit since he built the Great Song Library. He was no longer satisfied with the manuscripts, but he wanted to get the original book and buy it back at all costs. At least the money spent on these books was much less than what Sansi asked for...
The collision of Chinese and Western cultures can always give people a sense of freshness. This feeling makes people confused and full of desire for knowledge. The Palace of Wisdom in the Song Dynasty is open to any scholar. Zhao Zhen was a little worried at first, but later he found that his worries were completely redundant. The literati of this era had a crazy persistence in books. The way to care for books was like stroking lovers, yes, stroking lovers... This is the conclusion that Zhao Zhen came to after seeing Pang Ji's reading.
Who can think of the ambiguous expression of an old man over 60 years old when he saw Plato's "The Ideal Country" written by Plato, and his eyes were even full of fascination. Zhao Zhen knew this book, and he even read it from beginning to end. The book involved many fields such as political science, education, ethics, and philosophy. His thoughts were profound and profound, almost representing the entire Greek culture.
He did not understand how the Greek political system could make the Eastern prime ministers of a feudal dynasty fascinated by it. He should know that the Greek system was a democratic republic. Of course, this so-called democracy was an aristocratic republic, but it was also democracy, and it was completely different from the political system of the Song Dynasty.
It can even be said to be an irreconcilable huge contradiction of opposition!
But Pang Ji's obsession with this book was completely beyond Zhao Zhen's imagination. When Zhao Zhen asked him, if the Song Dynasty became like this, this gentle gentleman suddenly became a warrior who killed the enemy in blood on the battlefield. Anyone who dared to fight against the Song Dynasty would fight with him for life.
Finally, his statement was: "The Athens contained in this book is simply incredible. The democracy in the book seems absurd but has learned from it. This is why this originally prosperous country completely perished......Officials must not change our Song Dynasty! Absolutely, although the book is suitable for that country, it is not suitable for our Song Dynasty. Different national conditions are different, so the choices are naturally different!"
Zhao Zhen was amazed at Pang Ji's wisdom. He was right at all. It was the environment and culture that made the political systems of ancient Greece and China far different.
……………………
The two children were looking for books they like in their collections. The books here were not classified according to Gong Shang Jiao Zhengyu, but were separated according to their categories, so that Zhao Zhen could quickly find the books he needed.
The officials at the door were used to the officials coming to "borrow books". Yes, they just borrow books. I don't know why the officials stipulated that even if everyone borrowed books from Chongwen Academy in the palace, they must be registered.
These books belong to the royal family, so what if they are taken away? And you also have to let yourself, as a civil servant, come to manage it, just find a clever eunuch who works hard to take care of it. But this also shows the importance of books in the palace, so that the officials hope that foreign ministers will supervise it.
Zhao Zhen and his son borrowed a lot of books from Chongwen Academy. Zhao Xu borrowed books on art. If this kid had not inherited the throne in the future, Zhao Zhen really wanted to train him to become an artist. Of course, an emperor could also have profound artistic attainments, especially in a peaceful and prosperous era.
Even Zhao Zhen avoided the books borrowed by Zhao Yun. Most of them were "Zhang Qiujian's Arithmetic" and "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" and "Arithmetic" such as Arab mathematician Hua Lazimi. This is an enlightenment book of algebra theory, but after that, there were profound algebra problems that even Zhao Zhen did not want to read.
But Zhao Yun was happy with it. It can be said that if he was not a prince, he would definitely become an unprecedented sea... Mathematician, this kid also likes sailing very much, and wants to escape from the land all the time, and likes to wander on the sea very much. If Wang Yuyan hadn't watched him tightly, maybe this kid had already gone to the navy, and Zhao Zhen would not stop his son anyway.
"Official family! The official family has a great victory! The official family has a great victory!"
The voice of Sancai was like shouting with a loudspeaker. The entire Chongwen Academy, as well as the Secretariat and the Privy Council not far away, could be heard. Zhao Zhen frowned slightly and said, "What hysteria did you get when you kill this?! Where did the great victory come from without the use of troops in the Song Dynasty? Besides, the noise in the palace is not enough?!"
Sancai bowed and said, "You have forgotten the official, did you forget? Cai Boqi was in Japan. A few days ago, Cai Boqi was besieged in Ping'anjing. After he escaped, the Japanese continued to pursue him relentlessly. Liu Dezhao led his army to aid and defeated nearly 100,000 elite Japanese soldiers with a 50,000 army!"
