Chapter 307 Feudal ethics kill people
In front of Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng, Zhu Yijun talked about the massacre order to kill everyone above the wheel. The purpose was actually to ask Zhang Juzheng about his attitude towards reconciliation. This was meant for Gao Gong It seems that Zhang Juzheng and Gao Gong are both pragmatic politicians, and they have their own opinions on the issue of Ming Dynasty and Beibei.
During the Longqing period, both Zhang Juzheng and Gao Gong were in favor of reconciliation.
A very interesting question is why barbarians always appear on the borders of great empires, and the great empires continue to conquer. It seems to be like this forever, over and over again, with constant killings.
In fact, it is very simple. Because of the expansion of the great empire, it was driven to a place unsuitable for survival, so it could only survive through looting.
It was not that they voluntarily became barbarians, nor did they voluntarily leave a place suitable for survival, but the continuous expansion of the empire drove them to that place, and compared with uncivilized savages, barbarians are actually half Civilized races have their own writing, their own language, their own laws, and their own army building.
Genghis Khan’s execution of the massacre order to kill everyone above the wheel to Kublai Khan’s cessation of killing were all changes from uncivilized to semi-civilized.
The truly barbaric, completely uncivilized, uncivilized savages who even kill their children will eventually disappear in the long river of history. They may be eliminated by the harsh natural environment or eliminated by the civilization of the empire. After annexation, they may be wiped out by semi-civilized races derived from the imperial civilization. As time goes by, even the names of these races will become unfamiliar until they disappear completely.
Semi-civilized races are just derivatives of the imperial civilization.
Usually, semi-civilized races have two endings: fully integrating into a civilized empire, such as the Huns, or turning against the foreigners, such as the fall of Rome to the Germans and Ottomans.
There was a group of pirate barbarians in the north of the Roman Empire, and there was a huge grassland in the north of the Central Plains.
Zhu Yijun's attitude towards Mongolia has always been like this. Use war to promote peace. If reconciliation cannot be achieved, he will expel them with force, allowing the northern captives to embark on their own destiny and march westward.
Zhu Yijun stayed at Wang Zhigao's house for a while, and then planned to go to Beida Camp to parade the military horses. Before leaving, Feng Bao whispered a few words to a small Huangmen.
Feng Bao stood outside the car and whispered: "Your Majesty, let me ask clearly. Huang Yuezhong's lecture this time is said to be supported by Xu Jie."
"Ignore him, go to Beijing. Camp." Zhu Yijun smiled and closed the car window after saying that. He still had business to do. He wanted to see the excitement and also had to do business.
Is it really Xu Jie who instigated Huang Yuezhong to go to Beijing to give lectures and say those treasonous words about having no king and no father? It might be, or it might be the shit bowl that someone else gave Xu Jie.
Xu Jie's basket is a very good basket. Many things can be put on his head. This is not something in the future, but is happening now.
Whether the monarch and his ministers are different in name and in reality does not cause too many waves, because Huang Yuezhong himself does not believe in his own theory. If he really wants his theory to be widely recognized, he must be based on the theory of contradiction. If you discuss it with the theory of public and private, you will not be able to say those words that are confusing to people. Whether it is the theory of contradiction or the theory of public and private, they are all knowledge that attaches great importance to practice.
His Majesty the Emperor, who returned to the capital from Peking University, did not go to the palace, but to the Imperial Palace. The telescope parked in front of the Meridian Gate had already been pulled back to the Qintian Prison, and the great comet was in the sky. After the emperor's wedding, he could no longer observe it, and the sales of telescopes in the imperial palace were rising steadily, and Cui Min, the eunuch with money in the palace, had a smile on his face.
The emperor's uncle Zhu Zaiyu had already submitted a memorial the day before yesterday, asking the emperor to report to the Gewuyuan after returning to Beijing if he had any important matters.
The observation of the great comet's visit was not only carried out by the Qin Tian Jian, but also by the Royal Gewün Academy and tens of thousands of people in the Ming Dynasty who looked up at the starry sky. They observed the appearance and disappearance of the great comet. Facts have proved that the appearance of the great comet It has nothing to do with humans. It is just a natural phenomenon and one of the infinite principles of all things.
On the lying stone in front of the Royal Palace of Furniture, the sentence "The one who walks the walk is just faithful - Zhu Zhongxing" is still the same as before. Zhu Yijun looked at that line of words, and the Imperial Palace of Ming Dynasty has actually achieved this. , speak with facts and use mathematical methods to explore the mystery of the infinite principles of all things.
"I pay homage to your Majesty, long live your Majesty, long live your Majesty." Zhu Zaiyu brought Doctor Gewu from the Gewu Academy to the ceremony.
Zhu Yijun nodded and said: "No courtesy."
"This Sutra Collection Pavilion is very well built. Is that where the Gewuyuan Sky Mirror is?" Zhu Yijun pointed to the Gewuyuan Library. The top floor, the highest point, has been renovated. Now there is a huge sextant and telescope. The telescope is a reflective astronomical telescope. The magnification of the Gewuyuan telescope has reached an astonishing 120 times.
The measurement of the giant sextant is more accurate, which was proved by practice by King Ulugh Beg of the Timur Kingdom during the Xuande and Zhengtong years.
"Your Majesty, please move forward." Zhu Zaiyu asked Xiao Huangmen to lead the way, and he introduced in detail his various observations of the great comet.
“Your Majesty, under the Nine Heavens system, we usually believe that, except for the moon, all celestial spheres will never change. In the first year of Wanli, a guest star appeared. Didn’t that guest star appear? It is between the moon and the ground, but appears outside the moon." As he walked, Zhu Zaiyu talked about the understanding of guest stars in the Ming Jiuzhongtian system.
“In the observation of the guest star in the first year of Wanli, we found that the guest star did not move compared to the background starry sky.”
“In October of the fifth year of Wanli, Comet, this comet has changed its position compared to the background starry sky. Based on our tens of thousands of observations over the past five months, we have come to the conclusion that the comet first appeared above the moon, or even Above Saturn, while the head of the comet heads toward the Sun."
"It's too troublesome to explain like this. I made a model and asked Your Majesty to move in."
Zhu Zaiyu led the emperor into the Buddhist Scripture Pavilion of Gewuyuan. Zhu Yijun had been here once before. Then Zhu Zaiyu proved the existence of atmospheric pressure to the emperor, and then solved the actual water pumping problem. Now, Zhu Yijun came to the top floor again and found that the place had changed and became more messy. It was an orderly mess. .
Zhu Zaiyu, the director of Daming Gewuyuan, usually lives here. For others, this place is messy, but for Zhu Zaiyu, it is just right. Zhu Zaiyu can find it somewhere.
As the nominal crown prince of Prince Zheng of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Zaiyu was actually treated as a prince. In his Prince De's Mansion, there were 180 performers and singers, and there were also people dedicated to serving him. There are nearly a hundred people including Goryeo, Hailar, Japanese women, clam pickers, haenyeo, etc. The mess here is obviously because Zhu Zaiyu did not allow others to clean it up. It is obvious that Zhu Zaiyu's harem of beautiful women from all over the world has not been fully restored. use.
Zhu Zaiyu brought the emperor to a huge model with excitement. He said with great excitement: "At the beginning, I have been trying to make a model where the earth will remain stationary forever. At the center of the Earth, the sun and the moon move in a circle around the earth, and then, in addition to the earth, metal, wood, water, fire, and earth rotate around the sun."
"But the arrival of the great comet broke this model, because. This model cannot explain the celestial phenomena of comets. For example, when a comet revolves around the sun, its distance gradually approaches the sun. At the end of last year, its tail began to face the sun. We found that its orbit is not circular. It is elliptical, with positions close to the sun and positions far away from the sun. "
"We regard the earth as a planetary sphere like metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, and put it into the universe. There were many doubts in the past. It’s solved.”
Zhu Zaiyu showed his new model, a model with the sun as the center, water, metal, earth, fire, wood and earth appeared in front of Zhu Yijun.
Zhu Yijun marveled at this model, because a comet model was also on it. He pointed to the position of the comet and said: "We can't observe this comet now, but it is still in the sky, going round and round. Exercise, right?"
"Yes!" Zhu Zaiyu said with certainty.
Zhu Yijun asked tentatively: "Then when can we see it again? You said it is still running in the Heavenly Palace."
"I don't know. I didn't calculate it. Please forgive me." Zhu Zaiyu said with a slight embarrassment that he really couldn't figure out when this comet would be observed again.
"No hindrance, no hindrance." Zhu Yijun is still very interested in the model in front of him, because on this model, the order of arrangement is not metal, wood, water, fire and earth, but water, metal, earth, fire, wood and earth, and the earth becomes An ordinary star is no longer the center of the universe, and the order is the distance from the sun. This order is correct.
“Why are they arranged like this?” Zhu Yijun and Zhu Zaiyu communicated about the reasons for the arrangement.
Zhu Zaiyu explained with great interest that he obtained the approximate diameter of the earth through triangulation mapping, and then calculated the distance between the earth and the moon and the distance between the earth and the sun based on the diameter of the earth. The moon is the closest celestial body to the earth, and the sun It's far, far away, so far away that no one can reach it in a lifetime.
The circumference of the earth is about 80,000 miles, and it takes about thirteen minutes and eighty-eight seconds for the moon to completely rise from the horizon (ancient minutes and seconds of one hundred quarters, one hundred quarters, one hundred quarters, one hundred seconds, one day), Based on the observation of the total lunar eclipse, the distances between various celestial bodies were calculated. The diameter of the earth is 3 times the diameter of the moon, the distance between the earth and the moon is 29 times the diameter of the earth, and the distance between the sun and the earth is 12,000 times the diameter of the earth. , the diameter of the sun is 110 times the diameter of the earth.
The sun is an object the size of a plate, but it is 110 times larger than the endless earth. Zhu Zaiyu said this, and he was already guilty of deceiving the emperor. The cheap Confucians knew that they had to impeach Zhu Zaiyu. Zaiyu's evil words deceived the public and told Zhu Zaiyu to go back to Henan.
But according to Zhu Zaiyu’s calculations, even with this result, he also thought that he had made a mistake. But after entering Beijing, he kept doing this, and finally he was sure that his data was correct, and then reported it to His Majesty. .
Zhu Zaiyu still submitted the report. He hoped that His Majesty could accept this fact, especially the fact that the sun, which is the size of a plate, is actually more than a hundred times larger than the earth.
Of course Zhu Yijun can accept it. He also knows that the sun is actually rotating around the center of the Milky Way. He also knows that in addition to the earth, metal, wood, water, fire, earth, there are also Uranus, Neptune, and a downgraded planet. Pluto.
"Mathematically speaking, it is indeed true. There may be influencing factors that we have not observed." Zhu Zaiyu still adopted a compromise approach. This model is mathematically perfect for solving many problems, such as solar eclipses. , lunar eclipse, such as the change of seasons, such as the change of the stars in the sky, such as the five-star continuation.
In the folk, the Five Stars in a row is a bad omen, and there are even prophecies that the world will change. In fact, the official explanation from Qin Tianjian is that the Five Stars in a row is actually a good omen. When Dayu came to the throne, the Five Stars in a row appeared.
The astronomical phenomenon of Five Stars in a row is just deceiving people.
Qin Tianjian Cheng and Zhu Zaiyu leaked the secret that the longitude difference between the five planets does not exceed 30 degrees or even 45 degrees, and it is considered a five-star continuation. It does not exceed 30 degrees every forty years. It will appear once on the left and right. It is not a sign of a change of dynasty, nor is there any wrath from heaven and man. If the emperor needs it, the longitude difference is greater than 45 degrees and the five stars can be connected, which will be shorter.
According to Zhu Zaiyu's calculations, if the longitude difference between the five stars is equal to 0 degrees, it would be a true straight line, and it would take 14.4 billion years to see it once.
Zhu Yijun and Zhu Zaiyu have been studying for a long time at the Imperial Academy of Sciences on how to calculate the three-star lianzhu. In fact, it is just to find the least common multiple based on their revolution period. Because the observation methods are limited now, we can only roughly predict which year. .
Zhu Yijun had so much fun that he simply stayed in the palace of the Imperial Palace. When Wang Chonggu built the Royal Gewuyuan, he also built Zhu Zaiyu's residence. Opposite Prince De's Mansion was the emperor's palace. If the emperor did not return to the palace at night, he could live in the Gewuyuan.
Zhu Yijun is very satisfied with the palace. It is actually a miniature version of Guanghan Palace. It covers an area of no more than three acres, but it has everything. At least for Zhao Mengyou, there is nothing to do security work. of the problem.
Wang Chonggu is very good at protecting himself, but he is actually afraid of death.
At night, Zhu Yijun started to light the lamp and read the memorial, but Queen Wang did not return to the palace because she was accompanying him. Concubine Li Jing was supposed to sleep with her today, but the emperor did not return to the palace, so there was no need to worry.
When Zhu Yijun was reviewing the memorial, Empress Wang could not speak a word, let alone read the contents of the memorial. The prohibition of the harem to interfere with politics was the highest political correctness of the Ming Dynasty. This had a great relationship with the fall of Hu Yuan. relationship.
Emperor Yuan Shun reigned for thirty-six years, and the entire Yuan Dynasty lasted a total of 109 years. There were five generations and eleven emperors. Kublai Khan, the founder of the Yuan Dynasty, occupied it for thirty-five years. Emperor Yuan Shun It took thirty-six years, which was seventy-one years. The remaining thirty-eight years were divided equally among the remaining nine emperors. One can imagine what kind of chaos Hu Yuan's court became.
The "Sixteen Heavenly Demonic Dance" performed by Emperor Yuan Shun was even more chaotic, filthy and unsightly. Every time the Sixteenth Heavenly Demonic Dance was performed, the sixteen beauties were not wearing clothes. , wearing a tassel made of beads, and the audience was not only Emperor Yuan Shun, but also a large number of monks and relatives of the emperor playing together.
The Ming Dynasty absorbed this historical lesson, and the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics until the demise of the Ming Dynasty.
In the Ming and Qing dynasties, only Cixi, an old witch in the late Qing Dynasty, completed the imperial duties and listened to politics behind the curtain. Three years after Cixi's death, the Qing Dynasty finally exhausted its last trace of luck and perished.
Wang Yaozhuo was advised by the empress dowagers of the two palaces since he was a child, and empress dowager Li set an example. She left the Palace of Qianqing in the third year of Wanli and chose to return to power, allowing the young emperor to start handling state affairs and no longer interfere. , so Wang Yaozhuo would not speak even if he was accompanying the driver.
Zhu Yijun finished processing the last memorial, and his face was not good-looking. It was obvious that he was a cheap Confucian who made the emperor angry again. This is not surprising, because it often happens. This is part of the game between ministerial power and imperial power, and will be accompanied by Zhu Yijun’s life destiny.
“These cheap Confucians are so rebellious!” Zhu Yijun leaned back in his chair and said thoughtfully. He could actually understand this phenomenon.
When an individual encounters an opinion or fact that is contrary to his or her own beliefs, unless the opinion and fact are strong enough to completely destroy the original belief, the individual will ignore and refute the opinion and fact, and the original belief will Stronger.
This kind of rebellious mentality is universal. It took Zhu Yijun four years and still not completely shattered Zhang Juzheng's ideological seal. This is the case.
This is a kind of cognitive contradiction and self-protection. When people passively receive information, they protect their beliefs from interference and infringement by external information, alleviate their own cognitive contradictions and conflicts, and maintain own cognitive balance.
In addition to rebellion, there is also a tough talk. The tough talk mentality is easy to understand. Huang Yuezhong is a living example. He has clearly read the theory of contradiction and clearly knows how to improve his own views, but as an opponent he cannot If you want to change your position, you can only be stubborn and say that you have not read it.
The last thing is interests. Personal beliefs and positions represent existing interests. At this time, no point of view or data can convince the other party. Only when interests are damaged will one have doubts about one's original position, and then Collapse and rebuild.
There are generally three categories of cheap Confucians, namely, rebellious, hard-spoken, and interest-related. But the reality is that as a superior, Zhu Yijun is completely unable to distinguish which category these cheap Confucians are, which makes it difficult to deal with them. It is completely impossible to deal with it across the board, as that would harm good people.
Being an emperor is difficult, but also very simple. You must appoint people on their merits, select talented people, and put them in the right place.
For example, Wan Shihe's initial performance was rebellious. As a Ming Gong who climbed to the position of Minister of Rites, his own beliefs and cognition have already penetrated his life. He can make changes. That was taken out with one slap after another.
“Headache.” Zhu Yijun exhaled and looked at Wang Yaozhuo with a helpless smile, and then the helpless smile gradually became weird.
It’s the kind of smile that wants to laugh out loud but can’t, that is so hard to hold in that it almost hurts oneself, a smile that all men understand after marriage.
Because Zhu Yijun discovered that Wang Yaozhuo’s eyebrows were lit with a touch of vermilion. This is the menstrual sunflower, which means that the Ming Emperor Zhu Yijun can rest tonight!
None of the donkeys in the production team carry weapons like this! Zhu Yijun even understood the practical meaning of the idiom that an iron pestle grinds into a needle!
"The Queen Mother of the two palaces left thirty-six beauties, and this time there are eighteen people accompanying her." Wang Yaozhuo and Zhu Yijun were childhood sweethearts. One look at their husband's expressions, and they knew what he was thankful for. He said with a smile.
Without the birth of the emperor's eldest son, the husband cannot rest, no matter the concubine, he must have it.
"Have a rest today! You must rest, this is an imperial decree!" Zhu Yijun acted rogue. He did not intend to touch the thirty-six extra beauties. He had to think about his own waist. If he were Yuan Shun A guy like the emperor doesn't care about state affairs and doesn't have to patrol the army. Of course he can run around on the bed and play with the emperor's relatives and monks, and play as ridiculously as he wants, but he is really busy.
Wang Yaozhuo thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, your majesty said so eloquently, let's rest."
"You are not afraid that you have the eldest son of the emperor. Although we are separated by a wall, it is like we are separated by a river. It's so difficult to meet someone like Xinghe?" Zhu Yijun talked about this issue very seriously and said with a serious face: "You know what I'm talking about." "I know," Wang Yaozhuo. Said with great certainty.
Once the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty had the eldest son of a concubine, the queen would not be able to have children. Otherwise, would he be the direct descendant or the eldest son? This is another turmoil in the court, and another case of causing trouble out of nothing.
In history, after the wedding of Emperor Wanli, whether he went to Kunning Palace or ordered the queen to go to Qianqing Palace, the emperor just asked Dajue to go and tell the story. There were not so many rules, but since In the ninth year of Wanli, after Zhu Changluo, the eldest son of Emperor Wanli, was born, it was extremely difficult for the empress to meet with the emperor.
The emperor had to ask the empress dowager for a decree, and the empress had to refuse. The empress dowager then issued an edict for the emperor to choose another palace. If the emperor did not agree, the empress had to summon all the concubines. After the music and dance, there were all kinds of heavenly events. It was a big rule that the emperor had to write a written reply to the queen mother afterwards, and he also had to write a work report for this kind of thing.
These rules were actually intentional restrictions to prevent the emperor from having a legitimate son after having a concubine's eldest son. These rules were established to prevent disputes between legitimate concubines and concubines from causing disputes in the court.
After Emperor Longqing gave birth to his eldest son, Queen Chen saw Emperor Longqing again. It was already the funeral.
As soon as you enter the palace, the wall is as deep as the sea, and you can't help it at all.
Zhu Yijun didn't understand very much. Wang Yaozhuo knew what would happen, but he kept arranging concubines to sleep with him and beauties to sleep with him. Zhu Yijun had finished handling the state affairs, so he naturally wanted to ask questions.
Wang Yaozhuo is not stupid. Isn’t this digging his own grave?
"If love lasts for a long time, how can it last forever." Wang Yaozhuo's eyes were a little dodgey, and he gave a specious answer.
"If there is no day and night, how can it last forever?" Zhu Yijun immediately asked. He was a scholar. He could tell at a glance whether Wang Yaozhuo meant what he said.
"Alas." Wang Yaozhuo sat next to Zhu Yijun, but her eyes were looking at the window sill, looking from the window sill to the small sky outside the palace wall. She thought for a while and said: "Wei Gaozu Cao Pi's queen, Zhen Mi, also persuaded Emperor Gaozu of Wei to visit his palace, saying: "In the past, the descendants of the Yellow Emperor, Fanyu, had many concubines, so they wished to have Shuyuan as their heir."
"If you don't advise your husband to raise children and grandchildren, it will be the queen's fault."
"Nonsense!" Zhu Yijun said with scorn.
"Ah?" Wang Yaozhuo was shocked and full of doubts. This is what she had learned. If the queen did not let the emperor raise her, then she would be a jealous woman. There was already such an example before the Ming Dynasty. Empress Zhang of Xiaozong and Wu Zong He was an only son, but as a result, Emperor Wu Zong died, so Master Tao came to the palace.
Wang Yaozhuo has always regarded it as a golden rule, but when it came to this point today, the emperor actually commented on the nonsense.
"What kind of women's virtues are nonsense? At that time, there were aristocratic families in the world. Cao Pi accepted Zhen Mi in Yecheng just to win the support of the Zhen family in Zhongshan. Later, after Cao Pi became emperor, he no longer needed the Zhen family. He supported it, so in the second year after he became emperor, he gave Zhen Mi death. What kind of womanly virtue is it? It's just far-fetched." Zhu Yijun read history and told Wang Yaozhuo this paragraph.
In the world of aristocratic families, both Cao and Wei fell, but the Zhen family was still at its peak. Sima Zhao also made Zhen Wen the general of the auxiliary country. This is the rule of the game in the world of aristocratic families. The country can fall, but the family cannot fall. As for the common people, Life and death in Guizhou is nothing more than carelessness.
Zhu Yijun never denied the physical significance of Huang Chao killing the family until blood flowed into rivers, because Zhu Yijun also did the same.
"Zhen Mi was previously married to Yuan Shao's second son Yuan Xi, and it was also a marriage. Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao and drove Yuan Shao's family to death. Even Yuan Xi was driven to the grassland. Cao Pi and Zhen Mi were originally political Marriage, and whether Yuan Xi and Zhen Mi have any children is also questionable, but they probably do. Zhen Mi persuaded Cao Pi to visit his palace, so she had no choice but to resist and had no choice but to avoid it. "Zhu Yijun told this matter. Very understandable.
Zhen Mi has been married to Yuan Xi for several years, and she must have children. Zhen Mi is fertile, and Yuan Xi is also fertile. So where will Zhen Mi and Yuan Xi's children go after Cao Cao conquers Ye City? Already? Naturally, he was killed together.
Zhen Mi cannot resist, because she is not only herself, but also the entire Zhongshan Zhen family behind her. But is Zhen Mi really willing to serve the enemy who kills her son every day?
It’s just a half-dao couple. Cao Pi also took over Zhen Mi’s husband’s family. Things must not go well with this half-dao couple. If it goes well, why did Cao Pi just become emperor not long ago? Cao Wei’s new establishment is exactly When you were trying to win over people's hearts, you hurriedly sent Zhen Mi to death?
Discord between husband and wife means discord between husband and wife. What is the virtue of women?
"It turns out there is still this past incident in it." Wang Yaozhuo was a little dizzy. It turned out that things were not what she thought. Zhen Mi's words were not entirely due to the so-called womanly virtues. The reason behind this was, Womanly virtue is not even a reason.
"Ah! Is this the reason why you are squeezing us so hard? Out of womanly ethics, you have to arrange for concubines and beauties to sleep with you, but you don't want to find it difficult to see each other in the future, so you want to squeeze us dry. ? If you have children earlier, there will be no disputes about the right to establish a legitimate heir!" Zhu Yijun suddenly realized, no wonder Wang Yaozhuo is so fierce!
Feudal ethics kill people. Zhu Yijun has not dared to ride fast during military parades in the past few days. He has lived a life of soaking wolfberry in a thermos cup at a young age. In the final analysis, feudal ethics are harmful to people.
The progress of social development involves not only politics, economy, military, and culture, but also humanistic thought.
Look at what this feudal ethics has forced Girl Wang into.
Zhen Mi and Cao Pi have a son and a daughter, and Yuan Xi also has a son, so Yuan Xi and Zhen Mi are both fertile. When Cao Cao conquered Yecheng, Zhen Mi had been married to Yuan Xi for several years. , there must be children, and Cao Pi gave Zhen Mi death when he was newly established in Cao Wei. The relationship between this couple must not be good. Please, please, please give me a monthly ticket, oooooooooo! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
