"Consort, you are joking. If you can't compose poetry, who can compose poetry?"
"That's right, my consort, if your poems don't sound good, then no one will listen to them."
"Let's play one."
Changsun Wuji and the others also looked at Zhao Chen with smiles on their faces. The talent of the Prince Consort is unparalleled in the world. I wonder what poem he will write this time.
Zhao Chen glanced at the courtiers and said with a smile: "Okay, I will make a poem, but I have agreed in advance that my poem is not very good."
"It's okay, Prince Consort, just think about it."
Zhao Chen stood up and said calmly: "A needle can be hammered a thousand times and turned upside down to move upward."
Those officials were stunned. This poem didn¡¯t quite fit the occasion.
And Zhao Chen read out the last two sentences again: "My eyes are on my buttocks, and I only recognize clothes but not people."
A courtier from an aristocratic family frowned and asked, "Consort, what do you mean?"
The smiles on the faces of the ministers from the aristocratic families disappeared, and they cursed Zhao Chen secretly in their hearts. The originally harmonious atmosphere was disturbed by you again!
Zhao Chen smiled and said: "It's not interesting, I just think that you guys have taken too many pictures of the horses and forgot about them."
Zhao Chen pointed to the craftsmen outside the tent: "Master Ma, why did all the craftsmen around you run outside?"
After Zhao Chen woke up, the rest of the people in the tent reacted.
Lord Ma slapped his head: "Oh, Your Majesty, look at my brain. Come on, little brother, come in quickly."
The craftsman looked at the enthusiasm of the man in official uniform and was a little frightened: "I, I won't go in."
The other ministers reacted even more and stood up one after another to invite the craftsmen to the tent.
Fang Xuanling was even dumbfounded: "Mr. Zhao, you have even scolded us."
"Don't talk nonsense, I just can't stand the treachery of those people."
Zhao Chen remained calm.
Li Shimin also put down the bowl in his hand: "Mr. Zhao is right. This inspection trip is not to sing praises. There is no need to write poems or anything like that. We should listen more to the voices of the craftsmen."
"Everyone, you have also seen the craftsmen building the road, what do you want to say?"
Those ministers, you look at me, I look at you, they all can¡¯t tell, they all followed Li Shimin out, what are they thinking about, they are naturally trying to flatter Li Shimin, what else do they want to say?
But since Li Shimin asked, he naturally had to search for some words to come up with.
Li Shimin glanced at the flattering courtiers before, his expression remained unchanged, but there was a look of disappointment in his words: "My dear friends, don't you have anything to say? Lord Ma, besides the delicious broth, you can Is there anything else you want to say?¡±
Lord Ma said with cold sweat on his forehead: "I, I just feel that it is quite difficult for craftsmen."
Idiot!
Li Shimin snorted: "Did I bring you out just to let you know that being a craftsman is not easy?"
When the emperor was angry, there was silence in the tent, the craftsmen were trembling, and the foreman was wailing in his heart. Accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger.
During this quiet moment, a voice sounded: "Your Majesty, I have something to say."
"Oh? Just say it, Mr. Zhao."
When Li Shimin saw that it was Zhao Chen, he spoke softly, and the ministers also looked at Zhao Chen, wondering what Zhao Chen would say.
Zhao Chen said: "Your Majesty, the voice of the craftsmen is the simplest, naturally it is to improve their treatment, and this is only a corner of the craftsmen. There are many craftsmen in the entire Datang and other places, who are contributing to the infrastructure of our Datang. "
Hearing what Zhao Chen said, the officials of the aristocratic families reacted and quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, we must improve the treatment of craftsmen."
"How to improve?"
Zhao Chen smiled and said: "Your Majesty, the simplest thing is to formalize the profession of craftsman."
Formalization?
Changsun Wuji and the others were puzzled. Xiao Yu even said: "Scholars, farmers, industry and merchants, and craftsmen have been formalized. Why did the prince-in-law say this?"
Zhao Chen shook his head: "The formalization that Mr. Xiao talks about is just becoming a lowly craftsman in a certain mansion. At most, he can only become an ordinary craftsman under the Ministry of Works. If he is lucky, he can become a royal craftsman in the palace, but their The status is still inferior to that of a scholar, who is respected by others, can be exempted from taxes and corvee, and can even enter the court and enter the official career."
The more people around me listen to it, the worse they feel.
As expected, Zhao Chen said again: "The formalization I am talking about is that the position of craftsman should become a profession with the same status as a scholar. I hope that in the future, craftsmen can have the same status as a scholar and be respected. Those who can be exempted from taxes and corvee can enter the court and enter the official career."
What? !
As soon as these words came out, the officials in the tent were in an uproar!
Almost as soon as Zhao Chen finished speaking, some officials from the aristocratic family immediately retorted: "Your Majesty, no!"
"Your Majesty, what the prince-in-law says is extremely ridiculous. Craftsmen are just common people. Scholars study hard and pass the imperial examination before they are lucky enough to step into the court. But the craftsmen are not capable enough, how can they govern the world?"
"Yes, craftsmen specialize in work, and the division of labor is completely different from that of scholars. If craftsmen are rashly mentioned as having the same status as scholars, it will cause great changes."
Zhao Chen said leisurely: "To govern the world, we need all kinds of talents. Otherwise, there is not enough charcoal in winter. If we don't rely on craftsmen to produce coal, how can we rely on you scholars to produce coal?"
¡°When a court has scholars, it also needs talents in other professions. I propose to set up an industrial civil service examination. If you pass the industrial civil service examination, you can still be promoted to court officials as a talent reserve for the professional system of craftsmen.¡±
Changsun Wuji and others frowned, and the officials from the aristocratic families looked at Zhao Chen and glared angrily!
An imperial examination has already made them uncomfortable, and now there is another imperial examination?
Fang Xuanling pondered for a moment: "Mr. Zhao, what you mean is that the talents selected by the industrial imperial examination are specialized in positions in the Ministry of Industry?"
"Yes, those in charge of energy naturally need energy professionals, and those in charge of roads naturally need road professionals. If they are capable enough in the future, His Majesty can also conduct selection and assessment again. If they are capable enough, they will be appointed as the minister's left servant. It¡¯s okay to ejaculate.¡±
Hiss!
A craftsman becomes a prime minister?
Xiao Yu was even more angry: "Your Majesty! The prince-in-law is just fooling around!"
"Your Majesty! No matter in the past dynasties, there has never been such a ridiculous thing. How can a craftsman worship the prime minister?"
"Scholars are the core of our dynasty. Only with scholars can society be stable and stable. If the prince-in-law randomly promotes workers and scholars like scholars, then everyone in the world will become craftsmen. Who will come to Hanchuang to study hard?"
Arriving at the back, a minister from an aristocratic family suddenly took the lead and knelt down, and the whole tent suddenly became full of people kneeling on the ground!
"My ministers, I sincerely request your Majesty to reject what the consort said!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
