Chapter 338 Good and Evil



"Then I will come to your Majesty more often, as long as your Majesty doesn't find me an eyesore."

Wang Zheng also looked at the hourglass, stood up and said, "It's almost time, I will take your Majesty to the academy."

Today is the day when the college is closed. After Wang Zheng left the court, he calculated the time and came here to go with Li Zhi.

Li Zhi values ​​the opportunity to speak to college students twice a year.

After all, facts have proved that Confucianism is indeed not enough to allow the Tang Dynasty to enter the ideal prosperous era, and the promotion of Yuxue is inevitable. In this case, Li Zhi naturally has to pay more attention to the students of the academy.

Li Zhi not only gave a speech, he also provided a lot of practical benefits. In addition to increasing scholarships, he also directly paid basic salaries to all students in the college.

As long as you enter the college and can successfully continue your studies, you can receive a subsidy of three strings of coins per month. Although this amount of money is not much, even if all four colleges are full of students, it is only more than 20,000 strings of coins a month, and less than 300,000 strings of coins a year.

There were quite a few objections from the Imperial College about this, but the money Li Zhi gave did not go through the Ministry of Revenue, but came from his own treasury, so the ministers could not say anything.

Wang Zheng's flattery made Li Zhi very happy. This was one of the reasons why Li Zhi liked to chat with Wang Zheng. After all, being flattered depends on the person. Being flattered by Wang Zheng, the sense of accomplishment he felt was not comparable to that of ordinary court officials.

Wang Zheng naturally wouldn't care about the money from the patent, he just wanted to save himself the trouble in the future.

"It is indeed much more tender than green chives, and the fragrance is so strong, so it must taste good too. Haha, with so many flower pots covering them, the little guys will have a good harvest this winter."

Wang Zheng bowed and said, "I, your Majesty, wish you great success."

"The chief steward actually believes that evil also has a good side? Tell me, this is really a new idea." Li Zhi was so surprised that he sat up straighter, as if he was listening attentively.

In fact, the good and evil of human nature complement each other. Good has its own merits, and evil actually has its own charms. As long as we can get the guidance of the book master and use it in the right place, and with the Tang Dynasty law regulations, we can let both good and evil remain. "

Li Zhi smiled and said, "If the steward feels that he has lost money, he can apply for a patent."

Wang Zheng put down the lid and clapped his hands, then pushed Li Zhi out of the greenhouse again, saying with a smile, "It's a new thing after all, but it can only be sold at a good price for a year or half a year. The technology is simple, and it won't take long for those guys to figure out the trick."

But first of all, a country cannot lack violent forces, such as the army and government officials.

Wang Zheng pondered for a moment and said, "If everyone in the Tang Dynasty treats others with kindness and lives in harmony, it is not a good thing. After all, a country will always have covetous people at all times.

Li Zhi sighed and said, "This time, the chief steward still doesn't plan to give a lecture to the students of the academy?"

"Haha, thank you very much, Steward."

Anyway, the dynasty was not short of money, and Li Zhi would be more generous every year and try to give out more generous rewards.

As for evil, it would be more specific to say it is desire. Lust, greed, and violence can actually all be classified as evil.

But this amount of money can basically solve all the worries of students. After all, three strings of money are enough for the living expenses of an ordinary family.

After all, the last person who had his eyes on Li Zhi's inner treasury, the former Minister of Works, now has grass ten feet high on his grave, and now the ministers no longer mention the matter of Li Zhi's inner treasury.

As for lust and greed, these are not all bad things, as long as they are within the scope of the Tang Dynasty law, because these evils can serve as a driving force for the people to continue to strive. Without these evils, the people would not have so much motivation to do things. "

Wang Zheng smiled indifferently and said, "So we need to strictly enforce the Tang laws. Adults all know that it is not right to say that human nature is good, but we cannot say that human nature is evil. Of course, it is definitely wrong to say that human nature is evil.

Wu Yi smiled and stepped aside. All the students and teachers stood up, bowed and saluted, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, please give us your instructions!!!"

Passing by the Fifth Courtyard, Li Zhi asked to go to Wang Zheng's greenhouse. When he saw Wang Zheng open the flowerpot, revealing the tender yellow leeks inside, Li Zhi reached out and pinched one to try.

Seeing Wang Zheng appear at the door, Wu Yi finally smiled and said, "I have finished what I want to say. You all know what to do next, right?"

Li Zhi pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "What you said may sound new, but it does make sense. Confucianism educates people with kindness, but your Yuzhou school lures them with evil. They complement each other!"

Li Zhi sighed and said, "As long as interests are involved, the morality of the people will naturally decline. What can we do?"

Wang Zheng nodded and said with a smile: "Of course we have to apply for a patent, but there is no need to charge for it. Just don't let others apply for it first and make a profit."

Qibi Ming pushed Li Zhi into the seventh courtyard, and Wang Zhengze walked in later.

Wang Zheng shook his head and said with a smile, "Forget it. After all, I will often go in and out of these courtyards in the future. Knowing my identity will only make them more reserved when they meet me in the future. It has no practical significance. I will say hello to them when they graduate."

Li Zhi nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, then the chief steward can just admire my demeanor from the audience."

"Your Majesty is wise."

At this time, in the Seventh College, four thousand students were sitting quietly. On the high platform, Wu Yi, the executive vice president, was giving his final speech. The large clay jars and porcelain pipes buried in the ground ensured that the thousands of people in the courtyard could hear Wu Yi's voice.

Wang Zheng also bowed and saluted.

Li Zhi was pushed out by Qibi Ming with a cheerful face. He looked at Wang Zheng at the door and smiled even more. He said cheerfully, "Everyone, please sit down. I came here in casual clothes, so students should dress in ordinary clothes."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Everyone took their seats politely, and many of them looked at Li Zhi excitedly. After all, this was the monarch they were destined to be loyal to for the rest of their lives.

"First of all, congratulations to you all. Congratulations on completing the entrance examination with excellent results. This not only proves your two years of hard work, but also proves that my choice was not wrong.

It proves that the money I spent on you was worth it, and you did not let me down. "
