Chapter 25: The country is overthrown and all the people are slaves
The little emperor is married to Nongsang, and he still has doubts. The queen mothers of the two palaces are full of smiles and virtues. If you are really doing things and thinking, this is virtuous.
The Queen Mother Chen asked with a smile: "Tell me and listen."
Zhu Yijun pointed to the thick pile of books on the desk and said: "My child asked Zhang Hong to go to the ancient and modern collection library. We brought many agricultural books, such as "Silkworm Classic", "Miscellaneous Five Elements Book", "Essential Techniques for Elevating the People", "Must Used by Scholars and Farmers", etc. These agricultural books are all written in classical Chinese, and there are no sentences to read. , there is no punctuation, and there is no annotation. It is not a common word. ”
“Obscure and difficult to understand. ”
The agricultural book read by Zhu Yijun does not even have a punctuation mark. Read individual sentences (broken sentences). This agricultural book does not even read individual sentences. It is really difficult to read.
Zhu Yijun continued: "Also, there are differences in cold and hot temperatures between the north and the south, but the records in this agricultural book are not detailed and cannot be adapted to local conditions."
"If this agricultural book is written for farmers, Farmers cannot understand it; if it is written for scholar-bureaucrats, there are few annotations by scholar-bureaucrats, and almost no one reads it; then who is this peasant book written for? "
Empress Dowager Li? She and Empress Dowager Chen were stunned for a moment and looked at each other. The little emperor's question came from a very tricky angle.
Agricultural books are not for farmers because they are illiterate and scholar-bureaucrats are obsessed with the Four Books and Five Classics. Most of these reference books are read through or even not read. This is heresy. , how can anyone be obsessed with this?
Some people even regard agriculture as heresy.
Zhu Yijun continued to ask: "Mr. Yuan Fu taught me: Farming is the foundation of the world. It is what the people rely on for their livelihood. A rich country must rely on this industry."
"But so There are so many agricultural books gathering dust on the bookshelves, with no one reading them, and no one annotating them. It’s hard to even find an annotated copy. How can this strengthen the country’s foundation and enrich the country?” Country, are these docile agricultural books that even farmers can’t understand, out of touch with reality? How can local officials who don’t even read agricultural books persuade farmers and herdsmen to settle down on behalf of the emperor? Is this an empty talk?"
Empress Dowager Li thought over and over again and said, "Since the emperor wants to see it, then my mother will find someone to explain it to the emperor."
"The color of the sky. It's late, let's go to bed early." Queen Mother Chen also stood up. They had no answer to the little emperor's sharp question, and they didn't know how to answer it. Two adults couldn't answer the question of a ten-year-old child. We can't talk any more.
The child is still young and is asking the adults for advice, but the adults can only hesitate and talk to him.
How can you reprimand your children confidently?
It’s okay not to train!
Zhu Yijun sent away the empress dowagers of the two palaces, and sat in front of the bookcase, still flipping through those agricultural books. It was difficult to understand, but it was not because he could not understand them. In these agricultural books, there may be some inadvertent sentences. There may be countless people.
Since there is no one to annotate and no scholar to read, then he will annotate, he will read, he will correct mistakes, he will practice and test the theory. The hard work is indeed hard, but Zhu Yijun always remembers one thing, who runs for all people, who is the king of all people .
He looked at it for a long time before he put down the pen and paper in his hand with satisfaction.
"Go to bed early and get up early and grow taller." Zhu Yijun stretched out and signaled Zhang Hong to turn off the lights.
Zhang Hong was also studying. Before leaving, he asked His Majesty for instructions and took away a volume of agricultural books. When the Emperor asked, he could not understand anything.
The Wenhua Hall was still noisy the next day. The little emperor was writing and drawing on the platform of the Wenhua Hall, studying the Four Books and Five Classics carefully, and taking exams on the 19th of every month. , is the confidence for him to act recklessly. Only after passing the exam can he continue to do his job.
“Zhang Juzheng!” Ge Shouli was extremely angry!
What did the little emperor of Ming Dynasty do after practicing martial arts yesterday?
Went to Jingshan to hoe the earth!
Zhang Juzheng looked at Ge Shouli, narrowed his eyes and said: "General Ge, this is the Wenhua Hall. No matter how you call me in private, since we are sitting in the Wenhua Hall, please call me Yuansuke. ”
You should address your duties when working.
Ge Shouli said angrily: "First you expelled all the great scholars and monopolized the lecture banquet. Your power and authority almost shocked the Lord! Such control of authority almost shook the Lord! Now you dare to monopolize the lecture banquet? What else will you dare to do in the future? Do you want to monopolize that authority?"
When Ge Shouli said this, a smile appeared on Zhang Juzheng's face, which was originally gloomy. Immediately melted away, Zhang Juzheng said with a smile on his face: "Huh?"
"Talking about His Majesty's study."
"Attendant readers, attendant lecturers, exhibition officials and ministers Your Majesty's reading progress is very fast. To be honest, the Four Books and Five Classics that I have annotated cannot keep up with His Majesty's reading speed. Recently, I have been lighting up the lamp and boiling oil to annotate, for fear of living up to the late Emperor's entrustment, the Empress Dowager's earnestness, and His Majesty's expectations. "
< br>Zhang Ju is smiling, and it is not a superficial smile, nor is it sarcastic, but a very genuine smile, a smile from the heart.
Ge Shouli was criticizing the first assistant, but the first assistant didn't seem to care much, and instead praised the emperor's reading.
After Zhang Juzheng finished talking about the emperor's studies, he continued: "Ah, yes, Ge Zongxian talked about my monopoly on the Sutra Banquet. This is the key point."
"Ge Zongxian Does this mean that you don’t take the academicians too seriously?”
“On the 19th of every month, there are exams. Ge Zongxian thought it was because the academicians were sitting idle and refused to do so. Are you trying to test His Majesty’s academic performance well? Or are you trying to erase the achievements of the bachelors?”
Wang Xilie looked at Ge Shouli with a slightly confused look. Zhang Juzheng was indeed in charge of teaching, but the one who was in charge of the examination was the lecturer from before. Grand Bachelor, what did Ge Shouli say?
Are the academicians no longer willing to do their best in the emperor's education, or have they failed to achieve even an inch of success?
"Ge Zongxian, don't hurt good people." Wang Xilie looked at Ge Shouli with a bad tone and knocked on the table. When Jin Dang and Zhang Juzheng were fighting, it was better not to hurt innocent people.
It's not that Zhang Juzheng is not good at dealing with officials, but the previous affairs were complicated and messy, especially the little emperor's homework, which made him a little confused. He couldn't take out the ruler and slap his palms.
That is the emperor.
After the assassination of the king and the murder of the driver, His Majesty really realized that being an emperor was not that simple, and finally he was willing to take it seriously and study hard. This is great news for Zhang Juzheng. It doesn’t matter whether the Jin party is powerful, whether the northern barbarians are marching south, whether the six evils of Jiefuan are in full swing, whether the emperor is married to Nongsang, or even challenging Meng Shengren’s long-standing judgment, these are not big things. In Zhang Juzheng’s mind, the most important thing is that the Ming Dynasty The young emperor can grow up to be a useful person.
Zhang Juzheng is not afraid of courtiers, officials, or party members. After he came to power, his biggest worry was that the little emperor would not become a talented person, and the banquets in the first six months had little effect. Extremely bad, making him worried.
Until recently, the knot in his heart was completely relieved, but there were still two small dark clouds. One was that the little emperor was not doing his job properly, practicing martial arts and studying agriculture. The second dark cloud is that the little emperor is studying very well.
Zhang Juzheng was extremely pleased with the little emperor's study. The Ming Dynasty's state system required a British leader to lead the Ming Dynasty to revive. Whether it was martial arts or farming, as long as there was no delay in learning the principles of governing the world, Zhang Juzheng would Will not interfere excessively.
So reading is so good, it is just a small dark cloud.
Reading may not necessarily lead to good governance of the country, but failure to study will definitely lead to poor governance of the country.
Ge Shouli took a deep breath and then said sharply: "Your Majesty went to Jingshan yesterday, not to climb mountains, admire flowers, have banquets, or shoot arrows, but to hoe the ground! Your Majesty is rich in gold, and he is married to Zhang Yuanfu, a farmer! You are the emperor's master and Yuanfu, and you are so powerful that you will be struck by misfortune. Death will not be long before death and humiliation will follow!"
Ge Shouli's words were very heart-wrenching, and he said: Zhang Juzheng coerced the monarch to do these hard things, and soon after his death, humiliation and killing would follow.
When Zhu Yijun heard Ge Shouli criticizing Zhang Juzheng for farming in Jingshan, he suddenly said: "What I want to do, Mr. Yuan Fu stopped me, but he didn't stop me."
The little emperor opened his mouth. As he spoke, everyone looked at Zhu Yijun on the stage. The Ming Emperor spoke for the first time about matters in the court.
Almost all the courtiers believed that Zhang Juzheng's purpose was to exercise imperial power and increase his authority so that he could implement administrative decrees. However, judging from the little emperor's rhetoric, this does not seem to be the case.
Zhu Yijun looked at everyone's doubtful eyes, showed a bright smile and said: "I am young and rely on all the ministers to assist the country. This idle time is also idle. I am happy to see Xun Xin, Luo Gongchen The auspicious offering, if it is true, will also allow the people to have crops to save the famine, which can be considered a meritorious deed."
Ge Shouli became even more sad and angry, gritted his teeth, closed his eyes for a long time, and then said: "This Jing man. He is so arrogant and deceives the emperor, which will bring disaster to the country. The loyal ministers in the court are afraid of the power and are tongue-tied! We should support the country and set the course of the government!"
"Today, I will do my best to advise you. Kuang Fu has me here, and he can withstand the difficulties! "
Jing Ren is Gao Gong's derogatory name for Zhang Juzheng. No one dares to shout this name in front of Zhang Juzheng, even Gao Gong has never done it in front of Zhang Juzheng. Zhang Juzheng had called him this name before, and Ge Shouli would never have called him that if he hadn't been so angry.
In Ge Shouli's view, the little emperor said this entirely out of fear of Zhang Juzheng!
What is this if not the authoritarian master? !
The ministers overstepped the authority of the divine weapon. This is not the destruction of the country and the enslavement of all the people. What is it?
The monarchs of the Southern Song Dynasty could not defend the world, the country was destroyed, and the Han people were slaves and maids. They had words carved on their faces to survive, which was a disaster for all the people to become slaves.
Zhu Yijun understood what Ge Shouli said and asked with confusion: "Ge Zongxian, didn't I make it clear enough?"
"I wanted to do it, but Mr. Yuan Fu didn't stop me. At that time, the banquet was about Song Renzong's valuing of grains and precious jade, and the content of the report was heard by the bachelor, the bachelor, and the secretary. Ge Zongxian also heard about it."
"You are here. Isn't it confusing right and wrong, reversing cause and effect?"
Ge Shouli opened his eyes and said with great sadness: "Your Majesty, this is the danger of the Jing people. He asked Na Luo Gongchen to offer auspiciousness, and then he By presenting these two cases separately for a feast, he is trying to deceive and deceive His Majesty!"
Zhu Yijun looked at Ge Shouli, his eyes dark and unclear. He was trying to decide whether Ge Shouli was sophistry or the truth! Believe that Zhang Juzai is in power.
When the facts are beneficial to you, tell the facts;
When the rules are beneficial to you, follow the rules.
This is a typical and common sophistry.
What is more important, whether facts or rules, has an extremely flexible scale for courtiers.
Just as the curfew only restrains the people, it is of no use to those with a little power. Even the palace ban of the Ming Dynasty Palace is just a layer of window paper in the eyes of the Ming Dynasty. Even the eunuchs dare to Trample them and use the palace ban to make money.
Zhu Yijun looked at Ge Shouli and after a long time, he realized one thing. This guy was not sophistry, but really worried...
Feng Bao and Feng Dajue are typical movie kings. The movie king, Ge Shouli is not.
Zhu Yijun watched it for a long time and realized that Ge Shouli was not acting, he really thought so.
Yang Bo and Zhang Juzheng said that Ge Shouli was straightforward and a typical remonstrator. When the emperor opened the Baoqi Hall and "the emperor and the people farmed together", Ge Shouli's first thought was not that the little emperor had violated the law. Meng Sheng's words reminded him of Zhang Juzheng's domineering, eloquent deception and even his deception of the young emperor.
In Ge Shouli's view, or in the view of most courtiers, this is the truth.
The Jin Party and Zhang Juzheng finally began a head-on conflict over the issue of the emperor's education.
Yang Bo, the leader of the Jin Party, said nothing. It would be best if Ge Shouli won, and it didn't matter if he lost. He always reminded Zhang Juzheng that if he was so reforming and unwilling to form a party for personal gain, there would be only one end in the end.
Zhu Yijun was thinking that all doubts and questions should have a starting point, and it took the little emperor two breaths to think clearly about this starting point.
"Ge Zongxian..."
