Chapter 478
Xiao Jing picked up Yi Shanguan and hurriedly brought it to Emperor Hongzhi.
Li Dongyang and others, listening to the reward of the spies from the Jinyiwei, Yan Chengjin and the prince were crazy and were still angry. How could they frame others for no reason?
But when I heard about 30,000 taels of silver, I went crazy, really crazy.
The salary of a first-rank official is 100 shi of rice, and it is fifty taels of silver.
You need to receive a salary of fifty years to get 30,000 taels of silver.
There are only a few first-rank ministers in the court, but only a few three.
Many officials have been promoted to the fourth rank and then to the next level, which requires great opportunities, and are not something that ordinary officials can do.
"It's really... so crazy. I'll give you 30,000 taels of silver for free."
"The news is true? Where did you get the news!"
All officials lost their intention to discuss the court, so what else should they discuss about the court affairs? This is the court affairs!
Facing Emperor Hongzhi's straight gaze, the Jinyiwei trembled: "It's true, the entire city of the capital is full of earth, and the seal of the East Palace built by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."
Emperor Hongzhi's heart skipped a beat and hurriedly looked at the imperial case. The jade seal was still there, which scared him to death.
But what seal is it that the prince stamped?
The officials have not come to their senses yet.
Jinyiwei Qiqi Ai Ai: "There are also Gaozhao Literature Award, Gaozhao Science Award, Gaozhao Medical Department Award, all of which are 30,000 taels of silver..."
All the officials were stunned and gradually became numb.
They stood in the hall and listened to the report from the Jinyiwei, and they felt a sense of enjoyment.
After all, they may win awards.
Even if they don’t win the award, their sons and their descendants will have a chance.
This is much cleaner than accepting bribes and hiding fertile land.
Good thing, great good thing!
Only Emperor Hongzhi stared blankly: "Where did the money come from? I will not give money!"
Thirty thousand taels of silver were used to repair the old palace, which was better than giving it to others for nothing.
The rewards the court gave to the heroes had never been so huge.
What he was worried about was that the prince had stamped the seal, and he was the crown prince. He could not pay the money at that time. Wouldn't he betray the people?
Before he ascended the throne, he became a fool.
Jinyiwei said: "I don't know that His Royal Highness is a chamber of commerce in Liangxiang, so I will give you silver."
The Liangxiang Chamber of Commerce traded silk, fine salt and medicinal materials. With the strength of the Chamber of Commerce, it could only raise the 30,000 taels of silver.
At this moment, another Jinyiwei entered the hall to report: "Your Majesty, a large number of Imperial College students begged to Xie Yu to return to Liang Township to teach Tianyuan skills..."
this?
I just issued an order yesterday and resigned from Xie Yu's position as a doctor of the Imperial College, and today I beg for begging together.
Emperor Hongzhi actually felt uncomfortable.
Li Dongyang comforted his socks: "This should be the method Yan Chengjin came up with. With such a high reward of silver, I'm afraid there will be many people who will specialize in mathematics in the future."
After he mentioned it, Emperor Hongzhi and others reported it one after another.
This guy's method is so bold.
The spy who came in carefully looked up: "Your Majesty, the person from the Gaozhao Literature Award has been announced..."
Thirty thousand taels of silver were produced?
The silver gift was just established today, and the list was announced. It was too fast. Emperor Hongzhi almost bit his tongue in surprise.
Even though he was as calm as Li Dongyang, he was nervous and cheered up at this moment.
All the officials are full of energy. Could it be theirs?
They also wrote articles, recited poems and wrote pairs, which were widely circulated among their disciples.
Liu Jian stroked his beard: "I guess it was Wang Yue, and he handed his left hand to his right hand, and the silver was still from Liangxiang Chamber of Commerce."
Xie Qian and others nodded.
Nowadays, the most popular people in the market are the three new people.
Wang Yue is the dean of Liangxiang College and is most likely to obtain the money and then return it to Liangxiang Chamber of Commerce.
The Jinyiwei said, "Mr. Li, the official report from the public, notify you that you have paid the deposit and go and get the money."
Li Dongyang was stunned. He didn't hold the fluorene card in his hand and fell to the ground with a bang.
There was an uproar in the hall.
Immediately afterwards, another sound of a flue brand falling.
Everyone secretly hated why they didn’t have the surname Li and why they didn’t call them Dongyang.
...
The students of the Imperial College were cursing, how could they read the books of sages with such a high temptation?
Zhao Xuan, the Imperial College Priest, had the idea of resigning from his official position and learning Tianyuan Art from Xie Yu.
His monthly rice salary is only twenty-seven shi.
Compared to 30,000 taels of silver, it is undoubtedly a difference.
"Damn it, it's so arousing that the world's scholarly atmosphere has been ruined by this son."
"What the lord said is very much, but 30,000 taels of silver is really a waste of money."
Yang Cheng had quite a complaint about Xie Yu. Now, the teaching halls of mathematics are full of supervisors.
When he came to the Imperial College, the church where Xie Yu was located was filled with prison students.
Xie Yu stood on the stage and talked about the Tianyuan Technique with trembling fear.
The newspapers are still spreading outside the capital. Calculation is a miscellaneous subject and many private schools do not teach.
But starting from today, the gentlemen in private schools will start to talk about mathematics.
The scholars agreed with Li Dongyang's 30,000 taels of silver, and immediately recognized the status of the Gaozhao Literature Award.
...
Yan Mansion,
Yan Chengjin was very satisfied with the news that He Neng found out.
Soon, the Jinyiwei lightly pulled the door, and Ye Zhun walked into the main hall, passed on the oral order from Emperor Hongzhi, and summoned Yan Chengjin to the palace.
There is such a big stir in this matter in the market, let alone in the palace.
It is reasonable for Your Majesty to summon him.
Yan Chengjin came to Fengtian Palace, and after saluting, he stood aside. Surprisingly, when it was time to come, Li Dongyang was still in the palace.
Emperor Hongzhi frowned and said sternly: "Why should we set up such a silver reward?!"
Yan Chengjin thought carefully and said, "Because the people cannot fill their stomachs and do not cover their bodies, they are all poor places outside the capital.
This is my move to inherit the unique knowledge of the past saints and to bring peace to the prosperous era.”
This is not a bragging. When he was an official in Hanyuan, he did not copy any math books.
This led to the loss of mathematics classics such as the enlightenment of mathematics and the Four Yuan Jade Mirror.
"I heard that, as long as you set up these silver rewards, the people will be able to fill the rice jar and cover the brocade clothes? I want to see it! Answer me, how long will it take to see what you are talking about?"
Emperor Hongzhi looked disbelief and stared at him with a straight face.
Liu Jian and others also stared at Yan Chengjin with suspicion on their faces.
"Maybe...it will take five hundred years." Yan Chengjin looked up carefully.
A muffled voice came from Emperor Hongzhi's mouth, as if he was choking.
After five hundred years, who can see your prosperous age?
He resisted the urge to curse, took a deep breath, and swallowed his anger back.
Liu Jian shook his head with his beard and said, Five hundred years later, it is unknown whether the Ming Dynasty is still there or not.
Yan Chengjin stood in the hall with a serious face.
Five hundred years later, it was the later generations he had traveled through time that he did not deceive Emperor Hongzhi.
"Why do you want the prince to get involved?!" Emperor Hongzhi asked with a stern face.
The prince is involved. If the merchants in Liangxiang cannot afford the money, wouldn’t the imperial court support it?
The crown prince had a mouth full of Tianxian. Now, all the capital knew that this was the silver reward that the prince had mixed up with.
Soon, the news will also reach Nanzhili.
"In order to establish prestige, the crown prince is the crown prince and represents the court. The court recognizes that this reward of silver can be passed on and inherited from later generations."
Otherwise, how could Zhu Houzhao get involved?
With Zhu Houzhao's character, if he becomes the emperor, he will probably continue to promote it.
Emperor Hongzhi picked up the teacup and blew the tea foam: "You are honest!"
He did not want to ask about the court to pay the money. He was too lenient and perhaps Yan Chengjin would be in charge of the court to pay the money.
When he left the palace, Yan Chengjin and Li Dongyang left the palace together.
Li Dongyang said seriously with a stern face: "Even if you give me the money, you will not betroth Qing'e to you. How could I be the one who sells my daughter to seek honor!"
Yan Chengjin really never thought so.
