Wang Yinglin's words, at best, are good words, and they are a reminder to Zhao Yu, asking him to pay attention to the ways and means of work, and not to act excessively, thereby causing turmoil in the DPRK and China; If Zhao Hao's heart is small, it will be understood as a threat to himself, and he will not become a faint monarch who has been stinking for thousands of years in the writings of scholars. If other emperors really took this into account, they were worried that they would be dirty in the history books.

It's not that some people say that the reason why Tang Taizong created a prosperous era is because his seizure of power is a reversal, and some discussions reached his ears when the imperial court revised the "Book of Jin", so that people knew that they were talking about the rule of Zhenguan and the change of Xuanwumen. Tang Taizong sighed about this, saying that he really didn't understand why people's hearts were like this? If you do a bad thing to a person, you will remember it so well, and you will always remember it when you do a lot of good things. And if he wants to change history's record of himself, the only way is to govern the world and build a monument for himself.

But Zhao Yu is not afraid, he understands that there is no perfect person in the world, and it is impossible to always do good things in his life, and he will not let everyone support him. also knows that no matter who will be forgotten by history, in his previous life, Tang Taizong may only appear in history textbooks, and may not be as famous as his stupid brother, and the traitor who was recognized in history has been rehabilitated and often mentioned. So he really doesn't care what he thinks about himself in the history books, how can a few so-called celebrities be able to judge whether he is a bright monarch or a faint monarch.

Zhao does not deny the contributions of Confucian scholars to Chinese culture, especially the achievements of the scholars of the Song Dynasty. Song Confucianism once again started the historical and cultural traceability movement. In this movement, there were many extremely intelligent and radiant university scholars, that is, the Song Confucian Heavenly Troupe represented by the five sons of the Northern Song Dynasty, and the history they created, compared with Tang Confucianism, was bullying Tang Confucianism. Compared with Han Ru, it can only appear more brilliant and outstanding.

However, Zhao Yu thought that the path of the Song Confucians seemed to be a little deviated, and they gradually deviated from the original purpose of Confucianism in the world. Systematic, ontological features emerge. In other words, Song Confucianism's science is more like Plato's type of thought, and not so much like Lao Zhuang Confucius and Mencius's thought. They did a good job, but they seemed to have pulled out the root of the source with too much force. As a result, in later dynasties, it was no longer possible to launch a cultural traceability movement, which made Confucianism lose its vitality, become self-contained, and move towards narrow-mindedness and extremism.

However, as Confucianism dominated the state and society in the Song Dynasty, Confucianism also began to swell, giving rise to the idea of 'self-respecting', using their influence to influence the formulation of national policies, participating in the struggle for power, and even challenging the authority of the emperor, and began to reject the ideas of other schools. It seems that it has become a behind-the-scenes group that controls the country, and wants to make the emperor virtual.

Zhao Yu said that the Confucian scholars at this time had the idea of mastery, which was the progress of society, but it was also an act of death, they forgot who their power came from, and forgot that it was still a monarchical society. For example, Confucianism says that ethics rely on human self-discipline, which is of course necessary and very important, but there are many problems and situations that cannot be solved by self-discipline, because people have the instinct to seek profits, so there is a need for a legal system to restrict and monitor the behavior of bureaucrats in the administrative process.

Survival of the fittest, this is common sense. After the turmoil of the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the Confucian scholars also realized that they had to adapt to the development of history, so they re-expounded Confucianism and integrated the theories of other sects. At the beginning of the Song Dynasty, they did not deny Sima Tan's view in the "Six Essentials" that "the world is the same and there are a hundred considerations, and the same end is different", and realized that the two schools of Confucianism and Law have different perspectives in social governance, and the objects they serve are the same.

Zhao Hao thought this was right. The two schools of Confucianism and law only have different perspectives and concepts, but their goals are the same, and they complement each other in terms of results. From the ruler's point of view, there is just a focus in different periods. In troubled times, in order to control chaos, it is necessary to have heavy classics, focusing on the ideas and spells of Legalists. In the governance of the world, it focuses on Confucianism and emphasizes people's moral cultivation. All this varies from time to time and from place to place, and going to extremes is only a temporary need, and it will return to normalcy after it has passed.

And the Confucian scholars forgot that as the ruler of the country, they also knew this way, the official is big, the power is heavy, and often the command is immobile, it is self-contained, and it can cover the sky with one hand, and the situation of the superior is not clear, how to control it. And when the king can't deal with so many powerful people in one person, then his approach is to support the small people to rebel, and let the little people use as a crowbar to watch the movements of the big people.

If the big man is obedient, that's the end of it; If you are not obedient, then let the little people do the obstruction and suppress the prestige of the big people, and the little people have the support of the king, and they also have no fear, they can understand the king's intentions and do their best, and the king can use this relationship to seek a balance in the power structure; If something goes wrong with the little people, or when the authorities are faced with a situation that is difficult to manage, the little people can be discarded or used as scapegoats, and that will not affect the overall situation. The reason why the monarch uses the little people is also out of helplessness, just because the big people do not listen to orders and commands, and the little people would rather be used by the monarch, which also provides the possibility of using the small to control the big.

What Zhao Hao has done over the years can be said to be to restrain the excessive expansion of scholars' power and try to transform Confucianism. But how difficult it is, it took him more than ten years to cultivate his own team and gradually gain the upper hand, but only he was able to implement his edict. However, there has been little improvement in Confucian thought, except for the fact that the current Confucian views are too influential. His own knowledge is too poor to introduce a new ideological system, and to copy modern ideas is to die by himself.

Therefore, at present, Zhao Yu can only try to do it slowly, so as not to cause greater chaos, and he also found that although the rule of man has been criticized, in the case that the rule of law is difficult to implement, he also realizes that if the existing personnel can be fully mobilized, the ruling group can use power rationally, and it can also reach a high level of governance. And the important thing in the rule of man is to transform the people with virtue and govern the country with virtue, and turn around and return to what Confucius said: 'His body is upright, and he does not obey orders; His body is not right, although the order is not good, it is still inseparable from the fundamental ...... of Confucianism

The long-distance march is really a very boring thing for Zhao Yu, where to rest, where to camp, how much to travel per day, etc., should have their own people to worry about, and although he was anxious to go to Yingtianfu to complete the ancestor worship ceremony, and then rush to Xiangyang to sit down, he also knew that he was in a hurry. Now the downward march is sixty miles a day, which is already a very fast speed, and if you speed up any more, it will drag down the whole team, after all, there are still thousands of miles to go behind.

In the past few days, Zhao Hao has been sitting in the car every day, in addition to talking to Wang Yinglin and other accompanying ministers, more time is spent reviewing official documents, although he has not walked a few steps at the end of the day, but his buttocks hurt, and he can only move his legs and feet and stretch his waist when camping at night. Today, due to the rain, the roads were muddy and difficult to navigate, and the team had to camp in advance.

Because Zhao Yu didn't want to disturb the people, and he didn't like officials to send them from afar, he would not notify local officials in advance, and he would go around the city when he encountered a state or county. However, in order to facilitate access to water and supplies, camps are generally chosen in open areas close to the town. Today, however, I missed the pre-selected campsite and had to camp in the wilderness.

By the time the driver arrived, the baggage team at the front station had already set up camp and set up tents. When Zhao Yu got out of the car, the soldiers were digging trenches and building fortifications, and at this time the rain had stopped, the sunset was half-covered and half-exposed, and the western sky was reflected red and bright, like a sea of fire. It was already summer, and although it had rained for half a day, the rain had steamed up under the scorching earth, so it was still hot, and it would be even more unbearable in the tent, and he did not want to go into the sauna.

"Don't fan!" Zhao Yu saw that Wang Dere's clothes were soaked with sweat, and waved his hand to ask him not to fan himself again.

"Your Majesty, there are swarms of mosquitoes in this wild, how can you survive a bite!" Wang De didn't stop, now is the time when mosquitoes are in full bloom, and it has just rained, mosquitoes are slapping their faces, and he is still waving a fan to drive away mosquitoes.

"So many soldiers are outside, am I afraid of bites?" Zhao Yu glared at him angrily and said.

"Then Your Majesty hung up the sachet, which was sewn by the ladies and sent someone to deliver it." Wang De stopped at this time, and asked Xiao Huangmen to take a sachet for the little emperor to hang on his waist.

"It's not as good as Jiangnan, it's easy to get malaria after mosquito bites, so it's good to have some artemisia grass picked up later!" Zhao Yu raised his arm and let him fiddle with it and said.

"Your Majesty, be careful. At the moment, anyone can do it, but Your Majesty must not have a feint, otherwise the Queen Mother and the ladies will not be able to spare the old slave, and everyone will drown the old slave with a mouthful of spit! Wang De still kept nagging.

"You're not old, how can you become more and more verbose!" Zhao Yu put down his arm and looked at Wang De, who was still chattering, and said funny.

"Alas, Your Majesty doesn't know how to take care of your body, and the little ones can only be reminded from time to time!" Wang De sighed and complained.

'Bang, bang......' Just as the two were talking, there were suddenly several gunshots.

"Protect Your Majesty!" Zhao Yu was discerning the direction where the gunshots came from, Wang De had already shouted and pounced to block him, and the guards next to him immediately protected him, holding guns and guarding outside. The soldiers in the camp closed the camp gate in an orderly manner, and when they entered the position, they would be impervious to the wind and rain of the camp......
