Chapter 273 I am a wicked person with a long history of evil, but I feel evil
Tishuai Zhao Mengyou and Tishuai Luo Bingliang cannot find out the information. Why can Wang Paimai always get this information?
Because Wang Chonggu is also the home of a powerful and wealthy businessman, he naturally has some channels to hear those rumors. This is an area that Zhao Mengyou and Luo Bingliang, as Tishuai, cannot touch. If they touch this area, The emperor should worry about his life.
The emperor should be wary if the red-helmeted general and the powerful right-hand man get too close.
This is only one aspect, the other is the issue of funding.
The investigation by Zhao Mengyou and Luo Bingliang requires the settlement of accounts, and every penny must be spent clearly. This is an inevitable measure for the health of the organization and to prevent corruption from completely corrupting the organization. The eunuchs and the household department have to calculate the accounts, so Zhao Mengyou and Luo Bingliang can only follow the right path and cannot take the wrong path.
But Wang Qian is completely different. As the only heir to the old Wang family, he has too much money at his disposal.
Take the bribery of the fairy maid this time as an example. Wang Qian directly spent 10,000 taels of silver to bribe the other party, and then immediately arranged for her to go from Nanya to Guangdong and Guangxi, and even made new clothes for the other party. Her household registration changed in a blink of an eye, and the other party went from being a serving maid to a wealthy lady whose family was in decline.
This ten thousand taels of silver bought a piece of specious news.
Zhao Mengyou and Luo Bingliang cannot afford this money. They have to explain the whereabouts of these 10,000 taels, especially if they get false news. It will be even more difficult to explain. One is public funds, and countless people are watching. One is private wealth, and I am responsible for my father, and my father has nothing to do with Wang Qian. This is a completely different responsibility.
Wang Qian has always believed that the mastermind behind the Xishan attack was the work of the retro faction.
Because Zhang Siwei of the treasonous faction has proved with the lives of his comrades and their family members, and at the price of blood, that the emperor does not allow trespassing, does not allow ritual and music conquests to come from the princes, and does not allow local support. The soldiers respect themselves and do not allow the separatist situation of feudal towns to occur.
As for the retro sect, Wang Xijue has died so far, and he still committed suicide, leaving behind some dignity. This retro sect has not paid enough, and has not thought clearly enough. When it has been beaten enough, it will think I understand, what does your majesty want, and what should be done if you want to be powerful?
The retro style still gets beaten less.
Wang Xijue's daughter Wang Taozhen had a sufficient motive. Because Wang Xijue died and committed suicide, she and the court had an sworn hatred for killing her father.
Wang Shizhen's reasons are also very good. He and Zhang Juzheng were both Jinshi in the 26th year of Jiajing, and they were both common people. However, Wang Shizhen, a noble disciple, naturally looked down on Zhang Juzheng, who was born in mud. , but Zhang Juzheng not only refused to help him, but also demoted him, took away his salary, and asked him to return to his hometown to serve him.
And this Wang Taozhen also has a sect with more than 100,000 followers, as well as a chief disciple named Gonggong.
"Does anyone else know about the situation you mentioned?" Wang Chonggu's face was particularly solemn. He usually said that he would kill his own son, but he never really did it. Wang Chonggu had already done it. I regard myself as Yan Song of the Wanli Dynasty. Today's matter is a topic that cannot be touched and cannot be dealt with casually.
Wang Qian immediately said: "Let Nanya Ti Commander Luo Bingliang go there. Even if it is not them, this group of evil spirits who deceive the villagers should die! Dad, you don't even know what evil things they have done. They collected 49 pregnant women, took out the fetuses, and used the umbilical cord blood to maintain their beauty. They said they could stay young forever!"
"I, a wicked person full of sins, thought this! It’s too kind to these people to go to the eighteenth level of hell after death.”
"I ask you, does anyone else know?" Wang Chonggu saw that Wang Qian was already a little anxious. This is completely in line with the style of doing things at this age. He is impulsive and irritable. He clearly knows that the world is so ugly, but he still hates these evil things and hates them. Remove it quickly.
"I know what you are thinking. It is not an exaggeration to say that these people will be cut to pieces by a thousand cuts. But if others know, it is very likely that they will be tipped off. If others know too much, Your Majesty will have to deal with it. You have to You know, now Qi Shuai is seeking Quanning Guard in the Northeast, fighting on two fronts, and military strategists are very taboo, so we can't tear Qi Shuai in half, right?"
"I'm not shielding them, what's my position, dad? Protect them? Why do they expect the Ming Dynasty to protect them? It’s just a matter of time. Do you understand?” This is no small matter. Qi Jiguang was fighting in the Northeast and the Beijing camp was not at home.
"Only Uncle Liu and I know about it now." Wang Qian answered this question.
"Wang Qian, you, Uncle Liu, have a life-long friendship with your father and I. When you asked Liu Da to teach you martial arts, you refused because you were afraid of the pain. Now you send Liu Da to do such a thing? Are you feeling guilty? Are you sorry? "Wang Chonggu finally knew who his elder brother had sent to carry out these things.
The Uncle Liu mentioned by Wang Qian was from Pucheng. Wang Chonggu was engaged in business when he was young. The three brothers Liu Da, Liu Er and Liu San were all his family's bodyguards. Liu Er and Liu San was killed by bandits, but with Wang Chonggu's help, Liu Da avenged his brother. Since then, Liu Da has been teaching in Lao Wang's family.
This is the head coach of Lao Wang’s big training ground.
The merchants he wants to take are all the trade routes of Yinjieluo people. There are countless horse bandits and bandits. Some give face, and some don't. The rivers and lakes are not always humane, and there are also fights and killings. Wang Chonggu and Liu Da were indeed close friends through fate.
As a result, Wang Qian ordered Liu Da to do the dirty work of buying people.
"Uncle Liu did what he did very well. If I hadn't stopped him, he would have gone to find Wang Xiangu to fight for his life. Is that what he was doing, human affairs?" Wang Qian talked about the evil things Wang Taozhen did.
It’s not unusual for such evil sects to do some outrageous things. Wang Chonggu has always disliked sects, such as the Nestorian religion that Legaz believed in. The dirty things the priests did with children, in Wang Chonggu of the Ming Dynasty had heard about it.
"Don't spread rumors, I'm going to the palace now." Wang Chonggu put on his crane cloak, took the five-clawed golden dragon's dragon cloak, and hurried into the palace.
Wang Chonggu knew very well that this case was of great importance. The Ming Dynasty was not at home, and the handling was not careful enough. These evil spirits could really incite the people and start civil unrest. In the current Ming Dynasty, there are conflicts between people and the earth. The contradiction between the poor coolies and the powerful right-wingers has reached a threshold. If you are not careful, the turmoil will spread throughout the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Yijun is drawing. To be precise, he has a lot of pencils in his hand. These pencils come in seven colors. He just draws casually. Such professional tools are still handed over to the painters of the Ming Dynasty. to bring out its capabilities.
This is the colored pencil invented by Wang Gongchang after the pencil.
There is no lead in the pencil. It is called a pencil because it is a hard pen. The hard pen in ancient times was actually a lead knife. To hold a lead knife to carve a wooden board is to carve on a wooden board with a lead knife, so the meaning of pencil is just Compared with soft pens such as brushes, hard pens.
Wang Gong Factory was affiliated to the imperial palace. It built a pen factory specifically to produce pencils. It mainly grinds graphite into powder, adds water to condense it into small pieces, and adds white clay like dough to make it become The graphite cake is squeezed into long strips like noodles. The long strips are tied to a disk and pressed with a small hole on the opposite side of the rolling mill. Use the fixed-length knife to continue cutting into sections, which are the core embryos.
At this time, there are two processes. If pencils are to be mass-produced, the core blanks will be baked in the kiln and directly shaped and put into pencil holders. If they are to be used on a small scale, It needs to be soaked in pine oil, dried at low temperature, and then baked in a kiln to shape.
The second type is mainly used to make eyebrow pencils. In terms of cost, it only costs a lot of pine oil and graphite screening. The eyebrow pencil does not add too much clay.
The cost is about the same, but there are some differences in price. For example, an eyebrow pencil costs twenty-seven copper coins, while a pencil only costs about three coins.
Huangzhuang sells it for twenty-seven cents a piece, which can be used for about a year. However, the eunuch is still worried about being criticized by the courtiers to amass profits, so he does not dare to sell it at a higher price.
The emergence of pencils has made reading and literacy easier.
"Wang Cifu, are you feeling better? I sincerely know that Cifu is loyal to the emperor and the country. Don't work so hard in the future. Sometimes it is appropriate to leave it to your subordinates. If there is a problem, just repair it. No one can Make sure you don't make a mistake, even Mr. Gao Qiyu made a mistake." Zhu Yijun motioned to Wang Chonggu not to be polite and sit down to talk.
The dragon cloak has been brought back. Logically speaking, it is also a yellow robe, but no one will interpret it as Wang Chonggu wants to be the emperor, and will only regard it as his majesty's caring minister and a model of benevolent king.
Zhao Kuangyin was able to wear the yellow robe because he had the strength to be the emperor. The yellow robe was just a last shudder.
After those foreign officials entered the court, they all felt that Wan Shihe was easy to bully. In fact, Wang Chonggu was the best to bully. The emperor really wanted to kill Wang Chonggu. He only needed to make a little noise about it, and Wang Chonggu would be forced. to suicide.
"I am tired and have lost my manners in front of the palace. Please forgive me." Wang Chonggu explained to his face why he fell asleep. After the court meeting ended, the tight string broke. , and went to sleep directly.
"No problem, no problem." Zhu Yijun took out a box of colored pencils and a box of ordinary pencils, handed them to Feng Bao, and said with a smile: "Recently, the palace has received something good, and I will give it to your grandson. It’s just a graffiti. It’s not valuable, so there’s no need to refuse.”
“Thank you, Your Majesty.” Wang Chonggu accepted the gift. Whether the thing is valuable or not depends on who gave it. This is a gift from the emperor. His Majesty is always so sophisticated and knows how to make courtiers dispel their worries. These two boxes of inexpensive pencils show that the emperor really does not care about the indecency in front of the palace.
Sleek like an old fox.
Wang Chonggu couldn't help but think of Wang Qian, who was still shouting and killing at such an old age, and was not stable or tactful at all.
Colored pencils are pencils with various dyes added. Zhang Juzheng received the good things from the palace immediately, and Zhu Yijun got the good things. The first person who will not forget is Zhang Juzheng.
"Your Majesty, I have come to the palace to report something important." Wang Chonggu looked solemn.
"Tell me in detail." Zhu Yijun thought that Wang Chonggu came into the palace that night and came up from the hanging basket to return the dragon cloak. It seemed that there was something big going on.
The Ming Dynasty Palace has strict palace restrictions, but there are ways to work around it. There are also hanging baskets to pick people up. It is clearly recorded. Zhu Di met with Hu Xi, the Minister of Rites, at night and said it was for discussion. Emperor Jingtai also summoned Yang Hong, the commander-in-chief of the Xuanfu and Marquis of Changping, to make plans for the border regarding the affairs of Lord Jianwen. Because the matter was serious, they discussed it all night long. Emperor Jiajing also met with Zhang Cong at night to inquire about secrets.
What we talked about specifically was just mentioned briefly, but meeting at night was also an ancestral law in the Ming Dynasty.
"Wang Xijue's daughter, Wang Xiangu." Wang Chonggu reported everything in detail and told His Majesty all the clues. Even Uncle Liu's identity and experience were not deceived.
"Young Master is really...a good trick!" Zhu Yijun couldn't help but give Wang Qian a thumbs up. This guy really surprised Zhu Yijun. This magical power of bribery made Zhu Yijun stunned. Stunned.
"We will discuss it after Qi Shuai's army returns to Beijing." Zhu Yijun made his decision without too much hesitation. It was not that Zhu Yijun was afraid of this Wang Xiangu, but that this Wang Xiangu was taking advantage of the people's self-respect, so he dealt with it. , which is more difficult.
"Why do the people resort to gods and Buddhas? Isn't it because the imperial court can't rely on them? If the imperial court can rely on them, one hundred thousand believers won't believe in those illusory things." Zhu Yijun clearly knows how difficult these guys are. To a certain extent, Xiaomin will be pushed to the front when something happens.
The core program of the establishment of the Ming Dynasty's capital army is to report to the emperor and rescue the head of Guizhou. If not only the head of Guizhou is not rescued, but force is also used against the head of Guizhou, the cohesion of the Beijing army will be reduced.
When the organization and cohesion of the Beijing army declined, they could only use the method of the Mingbao Sect to disband the Beijing camp. After the Baozong was restored, the Beijing camp was disbanded. It was entirely because of the murder of Yu Qian and the death of Emperor Jing. Jingying does not belong to Baozong at all.
Zhu Yijun is willing to wait. The best way to deal with this evil spirit is naturally the Five Thunder Methods, which is upright and upright.
“Your Majesty, I have observed a phenomenon. When the craftsmen around the woolen factory have a little extra money, they will give it to Confucian scholars because they have to pay for repairs. Even if you live frugally, you need to support your children in school. Official factories are equipped with social schools, but only children from woolen cloth factories can go to school. Poor coolies work hard all day long, and they are all taken away by these Confucian scholars. "Wang Chonggu was the first person to enter the palace. The most important thing is to return the dragon's cloak. This thing seems superfluous for a moment in my hand. The second thing is to report the intelligence. The third thing is to talk about the phenomenon of woolen official factories.
This phenomenon is extremely common. Wang Chonggu is saying that the origin of the social status of the Jin gentry in the Ming Dynasty is that if the people have a little extra money, they will give it to Confucian scholars, because it is a common and common practice for their children to study. Cognition.
The craftsmen of the woolen official factory do not need to worry too much because the official factory has a school. Until the examination, they do not need to worry too much about the corresponding expenses. However, there are many people gathered around the Yongding woolen official factory. Tens of thousands of craftsmen are engaged in the business of supporting woolen factories. The children of these families can only give money to Confucian scholars in exchange for the opportunity for their children to go to school.
"What does Cifu mean?" Zhu Yijun asked very curiously.
“Expanding the Guanchang School and recruiting a small amount of Xiuxiu, we only need to have more than 30% of the craftsmen studying in our Guanchang School, which is enough to affect the Xiuxiu in the surrounding schools.” Wang Chonggu knew that with the Guanchang’s His ability is completely insufficient to allow all children to receive education equally. Being able to influence the cultivators around him is already his limit.
Wang Chonggu’s words are actually interchangeable with Zhang Juzheng’s, and they have the same purpose but the same purpose.
How could a humble Confucian occupy a high position in the ecological niche of the Ming Dynasty, and even turn from a landlord to a powerful family? It is because of the monopoly on knowledge, the monopoly on knowledge interpretation, and then the monopoly on politics. Wang Chonggu's expansion of official schools will allow more people to study, and the detached status of the humble Confucians will be gradually disintegrated, and even It's a replacement.
It takes ten years to grow trees and a hundred years to cultivate people.
Disrupting the status of humble Confucianism cannot be effective in the short term. This is a century-old undertaking.
"Yes." Zhu Yijun nodded in agreement and said, "The funds needed for expansion should come from internal funds. I have so much money in my hand, and I will keep it as long as I put it."
"This is against the rules." Wang Chonggu shook his head and said: "Your Majesty allows it, and I can do it." As long as Wang Chonggu wants policy support, as for the cost, that is, the cost of expansion, the official factory can still afford it, and the Ming Dynasty has If Haoyou's enthusiasm for worsted woolen goods does not diminish, then in addition to normal profits, the woolen woolen official factory will have extra surplus, which can be used to expand the official factory school.
The expansion of the Guanchang School was sponsored by the powerful figures of the Ming Dynasty.
Your Majesty’s internal funds are mainly invested in maritime trade, building shipyards, building new weaving bureaus, raising ships to go to sea, etc. Your Majesty has a lot of money, but most of it is spent on maritime trade. The funds for the expansion of the official factory did not involve the emperor's internal funds.
Mainly begging for food from the eunuchs, who would really humiliate him. Wang Chonggu would rather spend more money than deal with the eunuchs who practiced the "Qi Ren Jing".
Feng Bao saw Wang Chonggu off and watched him get off the hanging basket before returning to Baoqisi Guanghan Hall.
This is the benefit of living in Xiyuan. If he lived in the palace, Wang Chonggu would not be able to enter the palace after the curfew. The palace gates were strictly guarded. However, Xiyuan was not part of the forbidden city, but belonged to the periphery of the palace, so Wang Chonggu could only enter and exit.
Live in Xiyuan and avoid twenty years of detours.
Zhu Yijun affixed the labels of Wang Xiangu, Wang Shizhen, Wang Xijue, Sujing Sanren, and Gonggong on the drawing board with a solemn look on his face, and then wrote "One Hundred Thousand Believers" in his own hand and pasted it on the drawing board.
It is especially hateful to take advantage of the people’s self-respect.
Zhu Yijun covered the drawing board with a piece of vermillion silk cloth. The Ming Dynasty army was fighting in the northeast. When it comes, Zhu Yijun will definitely give these guys a big surprise.
Sanniangzi is right, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty is a petty person, and it is better to let the emperor vent it out than to endure it for a while. Keeping this account in mind, it is getting thicker and thicker.
The next morning, the sun was shining brightly. After Zhu Yijun had breakfast, he went to the court meeting. Wang Yaozhuo, who had dinner with His Majesty, went to Cining Palace to meet the empress dowagers of the two Ming palaces.
"The emperor has entrusted you with the selection of his concubine for the wedding. The emperor trusts you very much. Don't betray this trust." Empress Dowager Li first warned, as her parents ordered the matchmaker. , this matter was originally decided by Empress Dowager Li. Empress Dowager Li asked the emperor to make the decision. The big lazy pushed the little lazy, and the emperor pushed it to Wang Yaozhuo.
"My daughter-in-law knows." Wang Yaozhuo nodded in agreement.
"You call yourself your daughter-in-law?" Queen Mother Chen said cheerfully. This girl Wang knew that her identity had completely changed and she was gradually adapting to her identity.
"Sit down and talk." Empress Dowager Li motioned to Wang Yaozhuo not to be formal.
"Emperor, do you like you?" Queen Mother Chen asked with some confusion.
Empress Dowager Li also sat up straight. She was as curious as Empress Dowager Chen. It is indeed a good thing to be young and mature. Her husband has been away from the court for several months. His Majesty handled state affairs in an orderly manner. Zhang Juzheng's Ding You and the Xishan attack were two major cases. The emperor handled it with ease.
However, the emperor is too old and his emotions are completely introverted. He has no idea about the emperor's attitude towards the wedding. Is he satisfied or dissatisfied?
"I like her." Wang Yaozhuo's expression showed a slight smile. She was very sure that she was not lying to herself. According to her long-term observation, the emperor still liked her very much.
"Your Majesty devotes all his energy to state affairs, but even if he doesn't like music, he is still willing to take some time to go to the side hall every five days and listen to me playing. This is probably the only time for Your Majesty to relax." Every time Wang Yaozhuo went to play the piano, the emperor would do nothing and set aside time to either appreciate it or simply relax.
Wang Yaozhuo has been following Zhu Yijun. The emperor is really working hard. At this age, he has to fight with a group of old monsters all day long. Only when he listens to music in the side hall, he will let down his guard. This is trust. This It was just what he liked, Wang Yaozhuo was not deceiving himself.
Wang Yaozhuo knows Zhu Yijun very well, even better than Zhu Yijun himself.
The emperor is a ruthless political machine. In countless decisions, he does not make decisions based on his own likes and dislikes. Even if he reveals his likes and dislikes, it is all based on a political stance. Without exception, he makes decisions to a ruthless person. It is nonsense for a machine to expect emotional value such as like and love, but the emperor is willing to let go of his guard, which is the best expression of his introverted majesty.
It would be too much to ask for more.
"That's good, that's good." Queen Mother Li breathed a sigh of relief, and a big stone fell back in her heart.
Empress Dowager Li has always been worried that the young emperor will turn into a cold stone because he is tired of government affairs. Indeed, that is a great blessing for the Ming Dynasty, but for the emperor himself, it is not a misfortune. ?
And under the imperial system, the misfortune of the emperor will become the misfortune of the world.
Fortunately, the emperor is not emotionless, but is extremely restrained because of the troubled state.
"So what kind of concubine are you planning to choose this time?" Empress Dowager Chen was very curious about Wang Yaozhuo's criteria for selecting concubines.
“It’s beautiful and pleasing to the eye.” Wang Yaozhuo said very confidently: “Your Majesty has been tired for a day. When you return to the palace, all of them are mediocre and beautiful. Doesn’t this cause trouble for Your Majesty? As for competing for beauty, that’s all It's inevitable for the harem."
When Wang Yaozhuo said this, he was very confident. He was the main palace, so he was afraid of these goblins fighting with her?
Besides, she was extremely confident in her appearance and figure. His Majesty had previously mocked her as a bean sprout. On her wedding day, she was going to let the Emperor know what small branches bear fruit.
Bean sprouts, what are the bean sprouts? Why do you say she is a bean sprout if you have never seen her before?
After she entered the palace at the age of nine, she did not enter the palace as a maid, but was trained as a quasi-imperial concubine. She was read and literate and had three meals a day, but she had never been short of her. Now she is still following the imperial uncle. Let's do some accounting together, and we can sit down and talk with His Majesty about arithmetic.
She is also very confident in her appearance, her figure, and her harem fights.
With the emperor’s attitude of devoted himself to state affairs, there will naturally be fights in the harem, but they are definitely within the controllable range. After all, the palace fights are all for the emperor’s favor. The emperor only favors state affairs. How can he be so Lots of fights.
So, as beautiful as you like, the main thing is to be beautiful and good-looking, and it is best to be able to charm the emperor.
Zhu Yijun was in front of the court for discussion and sneezed hard. He watched the ministers stop their discussion, shook his head and said: "My dragon is fine, let's continue talking."
"Wang Shike, the official secretary of the former military governor's office in Nanjing, and the commander-in-chief of the army to guard Guangxi, Li Xi, the commander-in-chief of Guangxi, Zhao Kehuai, the deputy envoy, Liu Zhiyi, who participated in the political affairs of Lingxi, and Shipan, the chief minister, will follow Ling Yunyi to Shandong." Tan Lun, Minister of the Ministry of War. Speaking of personnel arrangements, Wang Shike is the commander-in-chief of Guangxi, and Li Xi, the former commander-in-chief, follows Ling Yunyi.
How did the Jin gentry clan control local power? Through officials.
Whether it is the three teams and six rooms of the magistrate's yamen or the magistrate's yamen, the heads and heads are all filled by people from the Jin gentry clan. Officials are appointed and removed to the localities. This old man Qingtian, please give me face, please give me a shout. Mr. Qingtian, the gentlemen don’t give you face, so they call you a foreigner begging for food. So whether you want to be Mr. Qingtian or a beggar depends entirely on whether you are an official or not.
It’s like County Magistrate Ma wants to see Mr. Huang’s face.
It is not uncommon for officials to evade officials. Ling Yunyi went to Shandong to do something, so he had to take some of his staff and subordinates with him. This was a show of caution.
"Will Ling Yunyi agree?" Ma Ziqiang said slightly worriedly.
"I have thought about Uncle Zong's concerns before. Last time Shandong dismissed a large number of officials because of the Confucian Mansion in Yanzhou, I asked Ling Yunyi, and Ling Butang was happy to do so." Zhu Yijun answered Ma Ziqiang's question.
Ling Yunyi’s bad reputation for killing people started with the governors of Yunyang and Jiangxi. When it came to Guangdong and Guangxi, it became even worse. Faced with the emperor’s inquiry, Ling Yunyi did not hesitate at all. He just went it alone, and Shandong It's a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, and he has to break into it.
When Yin Zhengmao left Guangdong and Guangxi, he repeatedly reminded Ling Yunyi that it was enough to tear down the door and move the bed, and stop killing people. His reputation was already even worse than that of Yin Zhengmao. If he did this, he would not be promoted or enter the capital. Of course, Ling Yunyi knew very well why he had been unable to enter the imperial court as a governor, but in the face of a bad situation, he still killed people.
On major personnel appointments and removals, it is natural to seek my opinion.
"That's good." Ma Ziqiang breathed a sigh of relief. If you go to the Confucius Mansion, you will be scolded by scholars for the rest of your life. Ling Yunyi knows it very well, but he still wants to go.
"The Queen Mother sent an order to the Ministry of Rites yesterday to inquire about the age of 16 for most of the saints of our ancestors. Now the emperor is only 15 years old, and the middle palace is only 14 years old. If it is December of the next year, it will have passed the elective marriage. If it is December this year, it is too early. Ask the Ministry of Etiquette for advice." Ma Ziqiang said about the wedding date.
Set the wedding date in the fifth year of Wanli, which is against the ancestral law. Choosing it in December next year will pass the period of marriage selection.
"The Qin Tian Jian Cheng reported that within a year, the profit will stop in December, and the rest will have obstacles." Ma Ziqiang added why it was difficult to choose a wedding date. The Qin Tian Jian said that it could only be December. The emperor should not get married at any other time.
Wan Shihe immediately said: "Nonsense, taboos are folk customs, and among the people, there are still people who are not satisfied with it. Moreover, Your Majesty is the master of the hundreds of gods in heaven and earth. Every move you make will be reflected by the hundreds of gods." How can you be imprisoned when you are serving your duties? "
What ghosts and gods influence your majesty's wedding? Your majesty can get married whenever he wants. The generals of the gods can only cooperate. Obstacles are nothing but myths.
The emperor is the highest in the world. This is the correct understanding of the emperor. Gods and ghosts are all aside.
"Wan Dazai is indeed good at etiquette." Zhu Yijun said sincerely. Wan Shihe was so proficient in etiquette that he seemed out of place in his position as an official.
"My mother and mother-in-law told me before that when all things happen in February and March next year, according to ancient rituals, men and women meet in mid-spring. Now if it is determined to be spring, then it will be in harmony with heaven and earth and all things will be harmonious. What does the Ministry of Rites think?" Zhu Yijun seemed to be asking, but it was actually a confession.
The wedding will be held in March next year. It does not violate the ancestral law of sixteen and does not fall within the wedding date.
"I will obey the holy order." Ma Ziqiang chose to surrender. The emperor's wedding was not counted, but the Queen Mother had the final say. In March, spring flowers bloomed and everything was renewed. It was indeed a good time. season.
Ma Ziqiang said with an embarrassed look on his face: "The Ministry of Rites invited four chastity arches. One was to commemorate the Zheng family, a daughter of the county people, and was betrothed to the Wang family. The Wang family died of illness, and the Zheng family's daughter died and followed her husband. ; Yang, the wife of the Confucian scholar Liu Junyuan in Xiayi County, Liu Junyuan died of illness, and Yang hanged herself to death; Zhang Shu's wife, Dai, and Zhang Qiyin's wife, Hou, in Yifeng County, have been keeping the festival for forty years;"
"Each county magistrate asked for a memorial arch to show his loyalty."
"His Majesty already vetoed this proposal yesterday and approved that chastity arches will not be allowed in the future. The Ministry of Rites knows it and does not discuss it." First Assistant Lu Tiaoyang Looking at Ma Ziqiang, he said: "Your Majesty has made a holy judgment."
Zhu Yijun has made it clear that he is not allowed to build a chastity memorial arch, but the Ministry of Rites still got it on the court, obviously wanting to make a petition and apply for this memorial arch.
Ma Ziqiang rarely disagreed with the emperor, but this time, he was obviously very courageous.
"Your Majesty, I still think it should be given." Ma Ziqiang expressed his attitude very stubbornly.
“I know His Majesty’s holy will. This Chastity Arch is naturally a tool for scolding and exploiting the common people, but according to the theory of contradiction, two sides of the same coin are not exactly like this.” Ma Ziqiang wants to give the Chastity Arch this kind of The dross of Zhu Chengxue's theory is actually very taboo under the current public opinion.
But Ma Ziqiang still expressed his attitude very strongly.
"Your Majesty, do you want to hear Uncle Zong's reasons?" Wan Shihe rarely came forward to intercede. It was obvious that Ma Ziqiang had communicated with Wan Shi and the imperial party on this issue.
"Tell me the reason." Seeing Ma Ziqiang's persistence, Zhu Yijun asked what happened.
If you let people talk, the sky will not fall.
The ancient chastity arch is a product of the background of the times. It is not to wash away the feudal dross, but in that era, the chastity arch was probably a kind of protection for the parties involved. Please give me a monthly ticket, wow! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
