Chapter 496: The situation is deadlocked

There are some things that cannot be said explicitly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

For example, in the current imperial court, all civil officials who were born in the imperial examination are writing chapters to impeach the Son of Heaven and the matter of Jian Jia Zheng. It's a matter of position. However, with Scholar Liu's idea, the music should be on the stage, and the limelight should not be outstanding.

However, how did he say to Weng Zongdao: You have to keep a low profile. At this time, if you pull your back legs, or publicly express your unwillingness to oppose the Son of Heaven, you will inevitably be scolded by Shilin and the civil official group, and you will be famous for the rest of your life.

The teacher and the protégé are one of the most stable relationships in the logic of civil and political politics. But it is not without betrayers. For example, the first assistant of the former Ming Dynasty, Zhang Juzheng, was repeatedly impeached by his students, which made Taiyue Xianggong extremely embarrassed.

Therefore, it can only be understood, but not spoken: the first frieze rots first! Not everyone has a "talisman" like He Shuo: he is in charge of the affairs of the Western Regions. Even so, how many years does He Gaoyuan's political life remain?

Liu Feibai is the president of the Yimao Branch. All of the 300 new science and technology scholars are his protégés. His favorite is the champion Weng Zongdao. Even the prodigy Jia Huan, he didn't value it - the main reason was that the resources of a seat teacher were limited, and Jia Huan was obviously closer to his township test master Fang Wang. Liu University's character is a student who will not rob people. Coupled with the matter of Huiyuan, he was naturally more inclined to cultivate Weng Zongdao

Now, his proud protégé has joined the new science and technology to write a book, which is eye-catching, praised by Shilin, and his fame has risen suddenly, but then, I am afraid that his political career will be ruined. How could he not sigh?

In his heart, Scholar Liu was not optimistic about He Shuo's leadership of the civil official group to confront the Son of Heaven.

Weng Zongdao's heart suddenly burst, and then he took a deep breath, suppressed the negative emotions in his heart, and said: "Teacher, since the students have organized the same year to study, all the punishments of the Son of Heaven are willing to bear the responsibility. ”

Liu Feibai sighed and said with a gloomy expression: "It's not that yet." Your recital has been transferred to the Military Aircraft Office today and submitted to the palace. Zhaozhen, there have been fewer banquets in recent days. ”

The so-called, less banquets and tours is to keep a low profile and stop connecting them in series. Jin Yiwei stared. It is estimated that the Son of Heaven already has a list there.

Since Weng Zongdao entered Liu's Mansion, he has always sat upright and dressed neatly. This was a habit he developed when he was a teacher.

Before the examination of the Ministry of Rites on the same day, he was named Jingshi, and some people commented: Zongdao has a neat demeanor and no words all day long. Tiredness does not lean, summer does not naked, eyes do not see. Those who saw it were awe-struck.

Weng Zongdao is such a person. At this time, after being silent for a long time, he looked up at his teacher, with a determined look in his eyes, and said: "

Teacher, the disciple thinks: the king of the human king is the weight of the artifact, the great in the realm, do not think of danger in times of peace, abstain from luxury and frugality, on the contrary, virtue is not thick, love is beyond his desire. Our generation of scholars should be advised.

Zi said: A gentleman should not be small but can be greatly appreciated. Heaven and earth have righteousness, and miscellaneous manifolds. When the poor festival is seen, one by one. ”

Weng Zongdao's remarks, quoting Wei Zheng's "Ten Thoughts of Emperor Taizong", said sonorously and powerfully. For his own selfish desires, the Son of Yongzhi wanted to canonize his brother and sister-in-law as concubines, trampling on etiquette and law. Scholars, adhering to the righteousness of heaven and earth, as a disciple of a saint, should be advised.

The Master said, "Gentleman, you don't need to be tested by small things, but you can accept important tasks." The consequences of admonishing the Son of Heaven are nothing more than a dead word. As the saying goes: the time is poor! Danqing history books must be named and praised.

Because, there is righteousness in heaven and earth!

What else can Liu Feibai say? He sighed and said, "I'm not as good as Zhaozhen." "Scholar Liu's words are above board, and they are also temperamental. Zai Fu Heavy Minister, what level? But in front of a little jinshi, he admits that his character is not as good. Be open-minded.

Weng Zongdao did not accept the suggestion of Scholar Liu and died down. Instead, he used his reputation to tell his ideas and ideas in public occasions: drinking parties, banquets, and literary meetings: to prevent the Son of Heaven from canonizing the concubine.

From the perspective of the etiquette practiced by Confucianism, monogamy and polygamy are practiced. The Son of Heaven, one queen and one imperial concubine, two concubines. Four concubines, this is obviously more polite.

Moreover, today's Shilin is unrestrained. Scholars teach prostitution and theft. and the last years of the Ming Dynasty scholars a virtue. Virtuous gentlemen from all over the world often scold: the world is declining, and people's hearts are not ancient. Advocating luxury, forgetting righteousness for profit; The wind of lust is blazing, and Tian is shameless.

However, no matter what the scholar does in private, how many kinds of ugliness he has in prostitution and theft, he will definitely not work on the bright side. How can the sister-in-law of the first brother and the concubine canonized as the dynasty do?

Within two or three days, in the capital, Weng Zongdao's reputation was even better. Hanlin was originally a clear stream. Qingliu "brushed" the name again, and the reputation was directly exploded. Now the scholars have to say: Fujian Weng Zhaozhen, with a neat demeanor, a righteous man and a gentleman, and the hope of a clear stream!

When Weng Zongdao gradually became the focus of public opinion and criticized the actions of the Son of Heaven, the public opinion of Shilin and the imperial court became more and more powerful.

And the impeachment of the Son of Heaven and Jia Zheng were all left by the Son of Heaven. The civil official group is not afraid of death, is not afraid of exile, and is willing to admonish the king with death, what can the Son of Heaven do? If he wants to achieve his goal, he has to purge the six branches into his own people.

And he has been cleaned twice, and the officials of the six branches still do not stop, coupled with the echo of public opinion, and the civil leader He Shuo is unwilling to come forward to extinguish the fire. If the Son of Heaven purge the Daoist for the third time, it is estimated that his reputation will be stinky.

Any saint will never block the way of speech!

If you purge like Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty, it will take several years to complete. Don't think about it anytime soon. The Great Rites Conference lasted three years, with 134 prisoners, 86 suspended from office, and 16 dead. And Emperor Jiajing of Ming Shizong is definitely not a Ming monarch, and the evaluation of historical books is not high. A traitor like Yan Song who has been troubled the country for decades, what kind of Ming Jun is it?

In the Gengxu Rebellion, the Tatars drove straight in, causing chaos in the surrounding areas of the capital for several days, burning, killing and looting, and finally left. His face is swollen, what kind of Mingjun is it? A man who plays with power and is outright self-interested.

The situation tends to be a stalemate.

However, the annoyance in the heart of the Son of Heaven can be imagined.

On August 10, the Son of Heaven summoned King Wu and scholar Xie Xuan to play chess in the Daming Palace. In the golden autumn season, in the open Xuan of the back lake in the Daming Palace, the breeze is gentle, the water waves are vast, and the horizons are open, which makes people feel refreshed and happy.

Emperor Yongzhi dropped a white piece on the chessboard and said with emotion: "Don't look at me as the Son of Heaven, I am often unsatisfactory." What is there to worry about the royal brother? ”

King Wu was a middle-aged man, dressed in princely clothes, younger than Emperor Yongzhi, and said with a wry smile: "The younger brother is restless in his family, so let the saint bother." "His son Wu Wang Shizi is very stubborn, and he has a headache.

Emperor Yongzhi laughed, "Godson, you must teach Confucianism in the name of Confucianism, and teach by word and deed." ”

Xie Xuan, who was watching, was silent. In my heart, I thought that if the current situation continues, I am afraid that it will not be good for the Son of Heaven. And there is a lack of opportunity to break the game.

Time, back to a month ago, in a plain south of Caiyun, the sound of killing shook the sky. Gunshots, cannons rumbled.

The governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, the imperial envoy of the right capital of the Imperial Palace, Qi Chi commanded 20,000 elite troops and several vassal kings and tribes of 100,000 native troops to fight a decisive battle here. And as the sunset gradually came, most of the Zhou army cut into the coalition formation, beheading the generals and capturing the flag, and the drums were thundering. Then, on the battlefield, there were routs everywhere who spoke the language of birds, and wolves rushed to the ground.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, there is a table and a chair. Qi Chi calmly flipped through the book. How can China be defeated with sharp guns and artillery?

The sword light and sword shadow on the battlefield gradually faded away. Several generals in armor walked into the tent of the Chinese army with blood stains and knelt in unison. The general at the head reported loudly: "The commander, the subordinate officials and others have lived up to their mission and won a complete victory." Four earth kings were killed in battle, and one was captured. The captives are innumerable. There are about 350,000 people. ”

Another said: "This battle is the victory." The marshal expanded the territory for thousands of miles, which was a rare military feat in the past 20 years. Subordinates are handsome! ”

Qi Chi was dressed in a scribe's shirt, put down the book, smiled slightly, nodded, and said, "Hard work." Order the division to record merit and reward the three armies. Three hundred people were selected to escort the king of the soil and the local officials to the Beijing division. For the rest, slash! Lei Jingguan, admonishing the natives. ”

All the generals took the command together.

Qi Chi's fluttering words, tens of thousands of life and death were agreed.

The land of China, the people of China, has been the kingdom of the Celestial Empire since ancient times. A small country, dare to make a mess and invade the border, kill!
