Chapter 306: Go through the history of the world’s rise and fall, and read countless people’s sins!
"Wisdom."
Zhu Yuanzhang muttered several times.
The tickle in his hand has stopped swinging.
The whole person fell into a state of silence, as if deep in thought.
Outside the palace.
Zhu Biao didn’t know when he arrived.
Pu Gouer bowed respectfully to Zhu Biao and said, "Your Highness."
Zhu Biao nodded and asked, "How is the situation in the palace? Did Xia Zhibai have any dispute with His Majesty?"
Pu Gouer smiled bitterly, lowered his head and looked around, and whispered: "Your Highness, the servant didn't dare to come close just now. I don't know what he said specifically, but I did hear some quarrels, and the servant just seemed like I vaguely heard that Academician Xia mentioned His Highness, but the servant didn’t hear clearly what he said.”
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Zhu Biao frowned. He took a deep look at Pu Gou'er and said coldly: "How long has it been? You are still hesitating, Gushu." You are innocent and tell me everything you heard. I want to hear what Xia Zhibai said."
Pu Gouer looked embarrassed.
But when he met Zhu Biao's cold gaze, he was frightened and his whole body trembled.
Although their prince is gentle with others, if he is really angry, even His Majesty will retreat. How could he dare to provoke Zhu Biao? Pu Gouer hesitated to speak and said cautiously : "I really didn't hear you clearly just now."
"I only vaguely heard that Academician Xia said that His Highness is not like the Crown Prince."
"More like the self His Majesty wants."
"Lacks his own opinions and lacks enough to challenge His Majesty. Courage."
Before he finished speaking, Pu Gouer was already kneeling on the ground, banging his head on the ground repeatedly, begging Zhu Biao for forgiveness, and at the same time said: "This is just a slave who accidentally heard it. "Yes, I didn't necessarily hear it clearly. Maybe I heard it wrong. Please forgive me."
Zhu Biao ignored Pu Gou'er who was grabbing the ground with his head. He was stunned when he heard this sentence. Lived.
Not like a prince, just like your majesty? !
Zhu Biao's pupils shrank, his body trembled slightly, and finally he looked at Pu Gou'er, kicked him up, and said: "Continue, I will not punish you."
Pu Gou'er was about to cry without tears.
How dare he continue talking?
These words can kill you.
Zhu Biao's eyes turned cold and he said coldly: "Why, you didn't listen to what Gu said?"
Pu Gouer quickly shook his head and said: "Your Highness, I really didn't hear the rest. These words How can I, a slave, hear it? I heard something outside the palace and hurriedly stepped aside, not daring to come forward. The slave really didn’t know.”
Pu Gouer’s head was shaking like a rattle. .
See this.
Zhu Biao felt angry and kicked Pu Gou'er again. Seeing that Pu Gou'er still refused to let go, Zhu Biao didn't press any further, but walked to the front door of the palace.
He did not enter the temple.
Just waiting at the door of the temple and listening.
However, to Zhu Biao's surprise, he did not hear any quarrel, only deathly silence.
Just when Zhu Biao was confused, Xia Zhibai's voice suddenly sounded.
Xia Zhibai said: "Your Majesty actually does not need to think too much. Now that you have entered the political arena, you can only continue playing without a chance to rest. And since your Majesty has already taken action against the courtiers, I couldn’t hold back anymore.”
"Your Majesty is like this, and so are others."
"As long as you embark on this road, you can't look back."
"What your Majesty really wants to do is not to leave an eternity to the world. A series of empires is not an institutional foundation for generations, because these things are destined to be impossible. The Qin, Han, Sui and Tang dynasties all dreamed of it, but history has proved that three hundred years is a long life. "
"What your Majesty wants to leave for the world is that when things happen in the future, the children of the Zhu family and the children of Huaxia will be recognized by the people and be believed by the people."
"This may be a kind of belief. , maybe it’s a culture, or a simple emotion.”
"This needs to be weighed and considered by Your Majesty."
"Also, Your Majesty's past concepts should change."
"Some common slang and slang, although they are rough and unreasonable, can make people feel uncomfortable. Not happy, but there is indeed a hidden truth. "
"For example: one emperor and one courtier."
Outside the palace. Zhu Biao's face turned pale after hearing Xia Zhibai's words.
The whole person was so frightened that he took a few steps back.
I didn’t dare to move forward at all.
Xia Zhibai’s words are really scary.
Emperor and courtier, is this what a courtier can say?
But when Zhu Yuanzhang heard this sentence, he seemed unusually calm.
He stared at Xia Zhibai, knowing that Xia Zhibai didn't mean to abdicate, but to let go.
Let Zhu Biao do things according to his own ideas.
Now Zhu Biao's so-called "team" is all arranged by him. This is not what Zhu Biao wants. When Zhu Biao really takes the throne in the future, many of these people are destined to step down and become emperors for generations. In this way, the replacement of courtiers can be gradually realized.
And the replacement of the old with the new is more useful than killing.
Killing with checks and balances is the right thing to do.
Rotation!
Zhu Yuanzhang closed his eyes.
Xia Zhibai waited quietly aside.
Everything in the world has its life cycle. Heaven and man, people and things will change. Only true great wisdom can last forever. It is difficult to achieve it by relying on systems and wishful thinking. Long-term peace and stability.
After a hundred years, it will be nothing more than a handful of loess.
What Zhu Yuanzhang is determined to achieve now, or has already achieved, will fall apart in more than a hundred years, and even his descendants will not take it seriously. Therefore, he cannot stop looking at it, he must always move forward, and he must always believe in those who come after him. They will be more knowledgeable and more adaptable to the environment at that time than those before and today.
You can also make more correct choices in that situation.
Rather than just follow the pictures.
The true eternal foundation should be something that the descendants of the Zhu family rely on to survive and even believe in. It is even something that they recognize from the bottom of their hearts and are willing to accept and even stick to.
As long as this ‘foundation’ does not fall, the Ming Dynasty will not fall.
It won’t collapse for at least a while.
It’s just
Is there really such a thing in the world?
Is there really a so-called existence that a whole system can protect for eternity?
He used to believe in centralization and believed that if he controlled the power in the world, everything would be safe and sound. However, people like Hu Weiyong sounded the alarm for him. There have never been fewer people secretly spying on the imperial power, and there will never be fewer in the future. The temptation of power is too great. Big.
He believed that his descendants would have the desire to persevere.
But you may not have the ability to hold on.
As for the system, Zhu Yuanzhang has scorned it. The guard system and economic system he trusted have now begun to collapse from the inside, and he cannot trust them at all. As for the clan, Zhu Yuanzhang cannot trust him either.
He is still there.
The second and third sons had already built a dragon chair and put on dragon robes.
If you meet the young emperor of the Han Dynasty, I am afraid that the clan is the greatest danger to the Ming Dynasty.
Jin Yiwei? no.
Strict punishments and strict laws will not work either.
In front of Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flashed the various policies and systems he promoted, as well as the various institutions he established, etc. In the end, without exception, he rejected them one by one. None of them could become the true representative of the Zhu family. The foundation of 'footing'.
a long time.
Zhu Yuanzhang opened his eyes, his eyes were very tired.
He shook his head: "I have searched through the history of the rise and fall of the world, read countless people's crimes, hundreds of schools of thought fighting for the crossing, mountains and rivers, jade bones, long and hard, but in the end I still can't find it. There is no such thing in the world. There was no foundation in the past, there is no foundation now, and there will never be one in the future.”
"Haha."
"We are also confused, but we actually listened to these words." Zhu Yuanzhang laughed, his face returned to normal, but his expression was a bit desolate, a bit lonely, and a little bit... unwilling.
