Facing Li Ye right now, Confucius asked him about the deepest idea hidden in his heart under the principle of courtesy and benevolence-people-oriented.

Facing Confucius' inquiry.

Li Ye did not immediately answer Confucius' question.

Instead, he raised his head and asked with a smile: "Then Master thinks, now that I am in power, what should I do to make the Great Xia prosperous?"

Without hesitation, Confucius said in a clear voice: "Enough food, enough soldiers, the people believe in it."

Li Ye nodded slowly, but asked again: "If you have to choose one, which one should you choose?"

Confucius frowned slightly, and continued: "Go to the army."

Li Ye nodded: "I have to go to one of them again, so where should I go first?"

This time Confucius did not hesitate, and immediately replied: "Everyone has died since ancient times, and the people will not stand without faith. So go and eat."

Li Ye smiled and nodded: "Master's words are very kind."

After this sentence.

Confucius' originally tense expression also brought a smile.

Because it was obvious that Li Ye agreed with what he said just now, and naturally agreed with his people-oriented proposition.

However, before Confucius could breathe a sigh of relief.

However, Li Ye changed his voice and asked again: "However, I have heard my master once said that "the people can be taught, but they cannot be made to know", and I have never been able to understand it."

"Dare to ask Master, what is the explanation for this statement?"

With just a few words, Confucius' expression became more serious than ever.

Because what Li Ye asked was not just a simple question of interpretation.

And the question is.

Tangled in the land of the Central Plains, there is still a fundamental problem that has existed for thousands of years-the wisdom of the people.

Confucius' words.

To fool the people or to benefit the people?

on this problem.

Perhaps countless sages and sages have had headaches for it.

However, in the end, they chose the same answer, foolish people...

Nothing more.

Most of the power in this world will always be in the hands of a few people.

And the wealth and knowledge brought along with this power are also firmly held in the hands of this group of people.

And this group of people is almost impossible to be defeated.

Because they not only include the great families, clans and even leaders of schools like Confucius.

Even the emperor himself is counted.

Open the wisdom of the people.

It is tantamount to completely breaking the pattern where the minority controls the majority.

Not only is it against the life of the family, it is also tantamount to against the life of the emperor himself.

The sage king and sage.

Who can do this, dare to do it?

After opening Minzhi.

Maybe a generation of holy masters can temporarily suppress the situation in his life by virtue of their skills and courage.

So, what about the Holy Lord a hundred years later?

Holy masters don't often exist, and neither do faint kings.

However, mediocrity often exists.

When the mediocre can't suppress the turbulent situation.

It also means the end of the dynasty.

People are selfish.

Even the Holy Master is the same, no one wants to make a wedding dress for others after all the hard work he has managed.

What's more, the energy and cost required to open up the wisdom of the people are too great, and it is simply not something that can be completed overnight.

This is the end.

Fooling the people has become the best and only choice.

At this moment, Confucius' heart was surging, and he looked at the young Da Xiazi in front of him in amazement. After thinking for a long time, he still sighed and shook his head: "How difficult is it to unleash the wisdom of the people?"

Confucius did not say so.

But Li Ye already knew his answer.

"The people can, let them know; if they can't, let them know?"

Li Ye smiled and nodded, then walked slowly, and came to the center of the hall, his gaze was still looking at Confucius: "Master, I have something to say here, I don't know, Master, can you comment for me?"

Confucius hesitated for a moment, then nodded slowly: "Your Majesty, it's okay to say."

Li Ye turned his head and looked at the incomparably vast summer sky outside the hall, which was clear, transparent, blue and gorgeous.

Above the sky, the sun is shining brightly.

It reflects every inch of land and every common people under Daxia's rule.

Also on Li Ye's face, there was a little bit of brilliance left.

"The king is like a boat, and the people are like water; water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it."

"How?"

Confucius was stunned.

Most of the people present were also stunned.

Because they understood Li Ye's thoughts.

I also know what Li Ye wants to do.

Since ancient times, countless sages and sages have wanted to do it, but none of them dared to do it. Crazy thing-to open the wisdom of the people...

Everyone stared blankly at Li Ye who was bathed in the sun.

There are those who admire in the eyes.

There are those who are at a loss.

There are also those who do not understand.

They don't understand.

Why did Li Ye do this.

Doing this is for Da Xia and Li Ye.

There is no benefit at all.

But facing the crowd with different expressions, Li Ye continued to say word by word: "In my opinion, the wisdom of the people is the wisdom of the country; the wealth of the people is the wealth of the country; the strength of the people is the strength of the country."

"From today onwards, I, Daxia, don't need to fool the people anymore."

Li Ye waved his hand.

aside.

Then a guard stepped forward and lifted the curtain on the left side of the hall.

What appeared in front of everyone was a dazzling array of books of all kinds that could almost pile up into mountains.

And this moment.

Everyone present finally understood Li Ye's confidence.

Chapter 280 I want to save all people, why did the two gentlemen teach me?

Is it difficult to open the wisdom of the people?

Naturally it is difficult.

At least.

In the eyes of everyone present, this was indeed the case.

after all.

To open up the wisdom of the people.

What Li Ye faced.

Not just the current family.

It is even an enemy of all vested interest groups in Daxia.

These forces add up.

Compared with the aristocratic family, it will be countless times more terrifying.

This is an almost impossible task.

To open up the wisdom of the people.

It is necessary to break down the almost unbreakable knowledge barriers created by these vested interests for thousands of years.

However, this knowledge barrier has been so strong for so many years.

How could it be broken so easily?

And Li Ye, where did he get the confidence to do such a feat?
