"What was Cai You's verdict last year?"
"Exiled to the Hehuang region,"
Zhao Qing said,
"This person is quite knowledgeable,"
"The Hehuang region lacks scholars,"
“Exiling Cai You there would allow him to teach.”
“Cai Jing’s other children and grandchildren,”
"It was also found in Guangxi,"
"They were reassigned to farm and teach in border areas."
"One of the sons,"
"I threw him to Hainan Island."
Which son?
Of course, it's the one whose wife was stolen by Zhao Yuan.
"By the way, the first edition of the 'Great Ming Code' has been completed."
Zhao Qing asked a eunuch to bring the manuscript.
"The imperial court is arranging for printing,"
"Once it's printed, it will be distributed nationwide."
"Over the next three years, judicial departments at all levels,"
"It must be based on the actual circumstances of the case,"
"Let's examine this 'Great Ming Code'."
"If there's a problem with the legal provisions,"
"Additions and modifications will be made three years later."
Even if it's never changed at all,
"We also need to add some typical cases,"
"To facilitate judges' reference when making decisions."
Zhao Yuan was flipping through the manuscript of the "Great Ming Code" when...
The title page had sixteen characters written on it:
The people are the foundation of the nation; when the foundation is firm, the nation is at peace.
Under the law of the land, officials and citizens are equal.
"Alas, I fear that on the day the Ming Dynasty falls..."
"Even officials and the people cannot achieve equality," Zhao Yuan sighed.
Zhao Qing said, "Even if you can't do it, you have to have this concept."
"That makes sense, but I have some mixed feelings,"
Zhao Yuan said,
"Once the wars on all sides are over, we will truly enter a period of domestic affairs,"
"The main contradiction then becomes the contradiction between the central and local governments."
"At that time, the central government and its officials will have to outwit and outmaneuver local officials,"
"'Equality between officials and the people' can become a weapon for the imperial court."
Just then, a eunuch came and stood outside the door.
Zhao Yuan asked loudly, "What is it?"
The eunuch replied, "Li, the Imperial Attendant, requests an audience with me."
"Report on all important matters concerning the epigraphy and seal carving of the Hanlin Academy."
"Please let her in," Zhao Yuan said.
"Huh......"
Zhao Qing drawled out his words.
His tone was full of disdain and contempt.
Zhao Yuan rolled his eyes at his son: "What are you thinking? I am the emperor."
"She was a court attendant, a proper relationship between ruler and subject."
While the two were chatting, Li Qingzhao had already entered the room.
"Your subject, Li Qingzhao, pays respects to Your Majesty!"
Zhao Yuan smiled kindly and said, "No need for formalities, please sit down, my dear minister."
"Thank you, Your Majesty,"
After Li Qingzhao sat down
Take out a sheet of paper.
"A copper plate presented by the Jinzhou Alum Refining Office,"
"The Institute of Metal and Stone has confirmed its authenticity."
"And the inscription inside the plate was identified, which contained a total of 133 characters."
"The inscription is consistent with the poem 'June' in the Book of Songs, Minor Odes."
"This bronze plate was made by Grand Chancellor Yin Jifu for his meritorious service in battle,"
"King Xuan of Zhou recorded the rewards and appointments he bestowed."
Neither father nor son were interested in metal or stone artifacts.
Of course I've never heard of that thing.
Chapter 321 National Treasure Xi Jia Pan
Anyone with knowledge of epigraphy, calligraphy, and painting
Everyone had heard of Xi Jia Pan.
This plate was unearthed during the Southern Song Dynasty.
It was then captured by a prime minister during the Yuan Dynasty.
It was passed down until it disappeared in the early years of the Republic of China.
Countless epigraphers throughout history have studied it countless times.
What followed was a story of finding a bargain.
A Chinese American bought it for a few hundred dollars.
Some say it was bought for $100,000.
Regardless of how much it cost,
Anyway, it fetched a sky-high price of over 200 million RMB at auction in China.
The national treasure, passed down through generations, has since become a private collection of a wealthy individual.
Zhao Yuan picked up the manuscript paper that Li Qingzhao handed him.
The inscription is translated into regular script.
The general content is: On the day of Gengyin in the third month of the fifth year of King Xuan of Zhou,
The emperor ordered a campaign against the Xianyun at Taiyuan.
Prime Minister Yin Jifu was ordered to lead the expedition.
They returned in triumph, leading their captives.
The emperor bestowed upon them four horses and a carriage.
He then sent the prime minister to Luoyang.
He ordered all the surrounding states to pay their taxes.
Especially the Southern Huaiyi and Huaiyi,
The farmers who had agreed to pay tribute,
Tribute and grain taxes must not be delayed.
Allow these foreigners to come and do business.
However, they must not disrupt the local market.
The feudal lords and common people in various places,
You must also obey the law.
Trading is only permitted in designated markets.
You are not allowed to do business in remote and impoverished areas...
Zhao Yuan was particularly interested after reading it.
Ask Li Qingzhao to take him to the Institute of Epigraphy.
What appeared before Zhao Yuan was
This is the complete form of the Xi Jia Pan.
There is also a foot ring at the bottom of the plate.
In another timeline, due to war,
The Xi Jia Pan fell into the hands of the farmers.
Unfortunately, the circumcision was discontinued.
The copper pan was used as a frying pan to make pancakes...
Li Tang, director of the Institute of Epigraphy, exclaimed in admiration:
“In the past, King Xuan of Zhou ordered the Grand Minister to attack the Xianyun at Taiyuan.”
"Today, Your Majesty ordered Your Majesty to attack the Jin invaders in Hebei. All victories were great!"
"The virtue of the great Ming emperor is comparable to that of the wise and enlightened King Xuan of Zhou."
"His Majesty's achievements surpass those of Yin Jifu, the wise prime minister of the Zhou Dynasty."
"This plate appeared in the world at the right time; is this not a response between heaven and man?"
"The Ming Dynasty will surely usher in a golden age!"
"There's no need to mention the theory of the interaction between Heaven and humanity,"
"But it is certainly something to be happy about."
Zhao Yuan was all smiles.
.....
"This is Bianjing!"
Bai Hong stood at the bow of the boat.
Gazing at the distant city walls.
He listened to his grandmother's teachings from a young age.
You should study hard.
When he grew up, he went to Tokyo to take the imperial examinations.
