Zhao Xin has thought a lot about how to deal with the aristocratic family and has come up with many ways.
Including taking control of the army and then taking direct force.
But this trip to Dahuang County and his trial run in Dahuang City made him realize that direct confrontation would not work.
The best outcome in the end was probably Emperor Yang of Sui.
It is very likely that the aristocratic family did not collapse, but I collapsed first, and my collapse was so infamous that it will last for thousands of years.
Instead, it will make things difficult for those who come after you.
He even felt that there was probably someone waiting for him to do this so that they could reap the benefits.
He also considered taking the mass line and engaging in public opinion propaganda.
But in the end, we all found that it was too difficult.
As an emperor, he had no access to the grassroots.
Public opinion propaganda is also not something that can be accomplished by just three or five people.
That requires a lot of manpower and material resources.
After much deliberation, he finally decided to take a three-pronged approach and boil the frog in warm water.
What does a three-pronged approach mean? Simply put, it means artificially creating a school of thought that represents one's own will from the top down.
Just at this moment Ning Zhuo appeared in his sight.
Although he is not the best candidate, he is the best choice at the moment.
Unless he could extract a great scholar from the system now, it would be too difficult, almost impossible, to find a ready-made great scholar in this world who was prestigious, willing to be at his mercy, and completely in line with his wishes.
In comparison, Ning Zhuo doesn't have real skills and isn't famous enough.
But he also has his advantages.
First: it looks good.
This is very important. This is an era where appearance matters. It is much more difficult to be ugly in this era than in later generations.
Second: His acting skills are not bad, otherwise he would not have been able to fool Zhang Yuan for so long.
Third: His eloquence was not bad either, although he had only been able to engage in idle talk before. However, that was because he came from a humble background and had no chance to learn anything real.
It doesn’t matter, Zhao Xin can give him the real thing.
This is the real thing. Zhao Xin has been thinking about which school to use all the way. After thinking about it, he finally thinks that the psychology school that time travelers love most is the most suitable.
Because since the Han and Tang Dynasties, the only doctrine that China has been able to make real achievements in the field of thought and is more in line with Zhao Xin, or the tastes of the majority of time travelers, is the School of Mind.
Because the development of the School of Mind in its later stages was already very modern, if the Qing Dynasty had not interrupted this process, modern people in the 21st century would have found it difficult to imagine what the School of Mind would have evolved into.
Of course, Zhao Xin would definitely not come up with anything that is too "heretical".
Because the current Qin Dynasty is similar to the end of the Han Dynasty. Although it is also in a period of social change, the ideology is not as rigid as it was later.
However, there is no social demand for particularly unorthodox doctrines in today's society.
Zhao Xin created this thing just to compete with the current aristocratic scholars for the right to speak, and his fundamental purpose was to stabilize the world, not to really take a step into socialism.
If you take too big a step, you'll definitely hurt something.
So although what he came up with was the School of Mind, it was also the School of Mind modified according to his needs.
Although such a transformation will definitely have drawbacks, and may even be less philosophical than the original version, Zhao Xin feels that his version of psychology will definitely be more suitable for the current situation and more convincing.
This is the most important thing.
There is actually a fourth advantage of Ningzhuo: it is easy to control.
This is the most important point.
Zhao Xin made no secret of this.
When he met Ning Zhuo in the North Study, he clearly found that the old man looked a little haggard.
It was obvious that he must have been under a lot of pressure in the past two days.
More importantly, he didn't know how the emperor was going to arrange him.
He was pushed to such a high position right from the start.
And then there was no follow-up. Who could stand this?
If the emperor doesn't summon him again, he's afraid he really won't be able to bear it.
Zhao Xin knew it all, but he looked calm and said with a faint smile, "Mr. Ning, you've had a hard time on the road. I wonder if you've recovered in the past two days?"
Ning Zhuo cursed secretly in his heart, what the hell is slowing down? Is it really that easy to slow down?
But he did not dare to neglect his words. He quickly stood up, bowed respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, I am grateful for your grace. Although the climate and soil in this capital are a little unpleasant, it is no longer a big problem."
"That's good, that's good."
Zhao Xin nodded with satisfaction and smiled, then said calmly, "I've heard that Mr. Ning founded a school of mind studies. I'm very pleased. Over the past two days, I've been summarizing what Mr. Ning has taught me along the way."
As he spoke, he took out the copy of "Compilation of Xinxue" from his sleeve, handed it to Cao Xiong and gave him a look.
The latter immediately understood, took it and then handed it to Ning Zhuo with a smile.
Zhao Xin then said, "Mr. Ning, please take a look first. Is there anything inappropriate or unclear? I hope you can point it out."
“…”
Ning Zhuo was completely bewildered, and stammered, "Ah? Um, okay..."
I subconsciously reached out to take the booklet, and saw four words written in a very strange font on the cover: "Editor of Xinxue".
These words are easy to understand. They mean that this is the summary of a discipline called Xinxue, but the question is, what is Xinxue?
Did I found the School of Mind?
Your Majesty, are you talking in your sleep, or am I just confused from sleeping?
When did I create this thing?
I subconsciously opened the book and saw the opening sentence: "What is in Heaven is called destiny; what is given to man is called nature. What is in the body is called the heart. The heart is nature, and destiny is one. It connects all beings, reaches the four seas, fills the heavens and the earth, from ancient times to the present. Nothing is not possessed, nothing is different, and nothing can change. This is the constant way..."
