Chapter 48 One is one, two is two
Loyalty, loyalty to the country, loyalty to the emperor, loyalty to the order of the world, and loyalty to one's own heart.
The order of the world is filial piety. Throughout the ages, the world has been governed by filial piety. This filial piety is filial piety, and it also means respecting the elder and the younger.
"The Son of Heaven is the king of the world and the father of all people. This has been true since ancient times. "Spring and Autumn" said: Although the ministers betray the king and his father, although the things they do are different, they are of the same type; "Zuo Zhuan" says: The king and his father are the same. The destiny is not correct; "Historical Records" also says: Although the king's father's respect cannot be taken away from his subjects' favor, an ordinary man cannot take away his ambition. "Zhang Juzheng first explained the origin of the king's father, which has existed since ancient times.
There are records from the Spring and Autumn Period to Shiji, to Hanshu, Later Hanshu, Weishu, Jinshu, Suishu, Old Tangshu, New Tangshu, Song History and Factual Records.
This involves the basic logic of how the world operates.
Zhang Juzheng answered His Majesty's question about where the king's father came from, and then continued: "A benevolent person is a human being. Kissing is the greatest; a righteous person is appropriate and respecting the virtuous is the greatest. Kissing is the greatest. "Filial piety, respect, loyalty, and chastity are the foundation of the king and father."
Filial piety means respecting the elder and the younger; Respect, revere and respect; loyalty, do one's best; Zhen: unwavering.
The king and father are above the ninth level. If the world can obey filial piety, respect, loyalty and chastity, the king and father will feel at ease.
The reason why the world has been governed by filial piety throughout the ages has become clear, that is, everyone respects the superiority of elders and juniors, so the most noble emperor will not be as confused as Louis XVI.
Zhang Juzheng bowed his head respectfully and said: "The father is the king of the family, the king is the father of the country, the father is the king, and the king is the father. The two of the king and the father are one, and the one is two, and the king and the father are one."< br>
At this point, we can go no further. No matter what the emperor asked or said, Zhang Juzheng did not intend to continue talking, because the following topic really cannot be continued.
Zhang Juzheng was afraid that the emperor would jump out and say: Can a ten-year-old master be the king of the family or the father of the country?
Zhu Yijun smiled and said: "Mr. Yuan Fu, one is one, and two is two."
"Your Majesty is wise." When Zhang Juzheng heard this, he immediately trembled, Your Majesty Saying this, you might as well ask a ten-year-old master how to be the king of his family and the father of his country! ! At least Zhang Juzheng can answer why the ten-year-old master can become the king of the world and the father of the country!
Your Majesty, one is one and two is two. Zhang Juzheng doesn’t know how to answer.
Your Majesty's words can only go in the left ear and out the right ear. If you hear it, you can only pretend you haven't heard it. But now that you have heard this sentence, it is still engraved in Zhang Juzheng's heart like a brand.
One is one, the king is the king, two is two, the father is the father.
With such a split, the order of the world will immediately collapse! Respecting the virtuous and so on is born from etiquette. If it is separated, where will the etiquette and law be?
How can we distinguish the two identities of king and father?
However, one is one and two is two. Two identities are two identities and cannot be confused.
If you don’t think about some questions, you won’t have any doubts. But once someone breaks this taboo and raises a question, when you think about it again, it becomes strange and you can never look back. Went.
Zhu Yijun did not continue speaking. Using too much force would have poor effect. It is better to flow slowly and slowly.
"The hundreds of households, general banners, and soldiers in the capital camp are unfaithful and unfilial." Zhu Yijun talked about what happened today and expressed his views as an emperor.
"It's true." Zhang Juzheng breathed a long sigh of relief. His Majesty did not continue the discussion and discussed how to cut off the king's father. Instead, he talked about Qi Jiguang's capture of hundreds of households outside Beitucheng. Making things difficult.
This is a good argument, it is clear who is right and who is wrong.
Disloyalty means not being loyal to the king, not being loyal to the country, and not being loyal to oneself. Because of the general trend of promoting literature and martial arts, and the great success of the people who cultivate literature and Yuanyuan, the status of warriors is declining. Likewise, as a The soldiers in the Beijing camp of the warriors actually want to fight against each other against the border troops. This is disloyal to themselves.
Not being filial means not respecting the superiority of elders and younger ones. The following are the top offenses. Qi Jiguang himself is a hereditary member of a thousand households, and now he is the chief military officer of the three towns of the second rank. The highest among these hundreds of households is only a rank of six. This is unfilial piety to hundreds of households.
It is true to be unfaithful and unfilial.
Zhang Juzheng hopes that the simple little emperor in the future will ask more questions like this, this kind of simplicity.
The lecture was still going on, and time flowed slowly. The lecture, which was extremely difficult for Zhang Juzheng, finally ended with the emperor bowing slightly.
Zhang Juzheng said goodbye to the emperor and stood under the noon sun, slightly in a daze. He glanced at the Wenhua Palace behind him, and then walked towards the Wenyuan Pavilion. He was the chief minister, and he A large number of memorials had to be drafted. Now that the capital examination method was being implemented, the Sixth Section sent a large number of account books to Zhang Juzheng for verification.
The examination is a law. The cabinet supervises six departments, and then the six departments supervise the six ministries of the central government, and the six departments command the civil and military officials and local officials. In this strict assessment system, no one seems to supervise the cabinet. In Zhang Juzheng's system design, the supervision of the cabinet was completed by the emperor or imperial power.
Although the young emperor was young, Empress Dowager Li sat in the Qianqing Palace and exercised imperial power on behalf of the emperor, which could be regarded as supervision.
After a series of busy activities including lunch, martial arts training, Queen Mother Li’s school exams, and planting rice seedlings, Zhu Yijun walked towards the majestic palace under the setting sun. He said to Feng Bao and Zhang Hong : "Feng Daban, Zhang Daban, do you know what we are doing?"
"Farming? I am stupid." Feng Bao replied in confusion, didn't this just finish planting the land? Or what?
Zhang Hong thought for a while and said: "In farming, try to keep the seedlings of potatoes and sweet potatoes alive."
Zhu Yijun said quite accurately: "Yes, the seeds are alive. For potatoes and sweet potatoes, seedlings, rooting, sprouting, flowering, pinching flowers, pruning branches, removing floating roots, and after a few months, digging potatoes and sweet potatoes out of the soil is the harvest. ”
"Feng Daban, I am planting the land, and I am planting it in a real way. I hope that these potatoes and sweet potatoes can really feed countless people. So, don't do those hypocritical things, and let the eunuch of Yuegang City Shipping Department buy some potatoes. He and Fanshu were sent to the capital to make up the numbers."
"One is one, and two is two. Only by speaking with facts can we find the problem, find the cause, find possible solutions, and then practice many times to find the answer to the problem. , if the phenomenon is false and hypocritical from the beginning, then everything is false."
"Mr. Yuanfu, you have taught me that scholars are just talking and not practicing. Those who follow the path are disloyal, and what they know and do is false; but they will gain nothing."
"Virtue: There is gain by practicing the Tao, which is the reality of being down-to-earth, Feng. My companion used hypocritical phenomena to deceive me, how can I cultivate my virtue? Practice is the only criterion for testing cognition.”
Zhu Yijun learned about honour, loyalty, filial piety, and benevolence. Virtue.
If the phenomena are false, then everything is false.
"I obey the decree." Feng Bao understood what His Majesty was talking about and spoke with facts. He was not allowed to buy all kinds of potatoes and sweet potatoes to come to Beijing and create some auspicious things to fool the emperor, ministers, and ministers. Jiangshan Sheji.
Zhu Yijun has given very clear instructions. If Feng Bao disobeys it, then his evil will be over. The iron box in which the son accuses the father and the father accuses the son is Feng Bao's order to clean up the harem. The sharp weapon was also the sharp sword against his forehead.
Feng Bao clearly understands His Majesty’s spirit. Protecting Baoqi Palace is the first priority, and the rest are nonsense.
Zhu Yijun walked into the Ming Dynasty Palace as the setting sun set.
Wang Chonggu, the governor of the Beijing camp, was also rarely in the city. Instead, he arrived at Beitucheng. A group of hundreds of households, general banners and soldiers who had barked in front of Qi Shuai yesterday were tied up and pressed to the gate of the city. Zhu Xizhong, Duke of Chengguo, also came together.
Zhu Xizhong was Wu Xun, and those who were tied up were his soldiers. He could not manage his soldiers well. If he could manage them well, he would have appeared during the Gengxu Rebellion in the 29th year of Jiajing. The nine gates went to the people's houses to defend against the enemy, instead of guarding the city.
After the Tumubao Incident, the capital camp of the Ming Dynasty was completely devastated. Yu Qian was the governor of military affairs and Shi Heng was the chief military officer of the capital camp. Under the order of Emperor Zongjing of the Ming Dynasty, the capital camp was rebuilt. In the 10th year of the 14th year of Zhengtong In August, the newly formed Beijing camp went out of the city to the civilian houses outside the city to defend against the enemy. They first pinned the Wala people firmly to Xitucheng and Beitucheng outside Xizhimen and Deshengmen, and finally repelled the Wala people.
Zhu Xizhong was a martial artist, and the Beijing camp he led could only stay on the city wall, relying on the strength of the city wall, waiting for Anda Khan to plunder the capital and retreat for eight days.
Zhu Xizhong cannot restrain the Beijing camp. Even if Zhu Xizhong is above all other nobles and deeply trusted by the emperor, he is still a martial artist. With the decline of martial arts, Zhu Xizhong cannot control the affairs of the Beijing camp. Who can?
Wang Chonggu, the governor of Beijing camp and military affairs, can take charge of it.
Sometimes Zhu Xizhong was very envious of Qi Jiguang. Qi Jiguang set up an ambush at Gubeikou and killed Dong Fox's entire army. Dong Fox's nephew led a crowd to come to support and was also captured alive. Liang Menglong, the governor of Jizhou, not only did not impeach him, but Instead, they boasted about Qi Jiguang's bravery.
Qi Jiguang was able to train troops, fight, and win. After winning, no one gave him a chance. Zhu Xizhong did not have that condition at all.
"Qi Shuai, cough..." Zhu Xizhong coughed for a while. In the 29th year of Jiajing, the injury he sustained in the battle to defend the capital became the root cause of the disease. It never got better. It rained heavily during the Qingming Festival. The cold air from the rain made him cough non-stop.
"I have met Duke Cheng Guo and the prince." Qi Jiguang saluted respectfully, but he did not kneel down, he just bowed his head and bowed, which was regarded as a greeting.
In the Ming Dynasty, there were two distinct schools of thought regarding whether ministers should kneel down to worship each other. The first school was headed by Hai Ruihai Bijia, who resolutely refused to kneel. They knelt in heaven and knelt in front of their parents and kings, except their superiors; the second school was led by Hai Ruihai Bijia. The sect is the mainstream in the Ming Dynasty. They all kneel down and kowtow when they meet.
When Hai Rui was working as an eunuch (official of the Education Bureau) in Nanping County, Fujian, a Shangguan inspected Nanping. Hai Rui brought two assistant officials with him. When they met, they all knelt down, but Hai Rui refused to kneel down. The two people kneeling on the ground and Hai Rui standing in the middle look like a "mountain" shaped pen holder, hence Hai Rui's name, Hai Rui's pen holder.
Qi Jiguang was the chief military officer of the three towns. He didn't want to kneel, and he was too lazy to kneel. Zhang Juzheng didn't let him kneel, so why did he kneel to Wang Chonggu.
"Shuai Qi has shown off the prestige of our Ming army this time, good, very good." Zhu Xizhong said with emotion, the dignity of a soldier is achieved by winning battles one after another! Qi Jiguang had already won dignity with his bravery against the Japanese.
Wang Chonggu looked at Qi Jiguang's strong physique and said helplessly: "I brought those short-sighted guys in front of Qi Shuai and let him deal with them."
The sedan chairmen are carrying people, thanking the leader "Chirp and Mi and Donkey and Dot and Sweet" for the 10,000 starting point coin reward! ! Thank you very much! ! ! Thank you book friends for your affirmation and support! ! I can't thank you enough.
