Chapter 325: Crusade against the Confession
In the Yanwang Mansion, Zhu Di convened major civil and military officials to discuss the next battle situation, Zhang Yu and other military generals vied to speak, and Yao Guangxiao and other civil officials also frequently offered advice.
After discussing for a long time, Zhu Di happily accepted some of the suggestions, and some of them politely refused, and finally pointed to Xu Hao, who had been silent, and said with a smile: "Why don't you speak?" ”
Xu Hao said: "I'm thinking that the song can be used to start a war of public opinion, maybe no worse than the impact of victory on the battlefield." ”
Three days ago, Xu Hao and many other northern Confucian writers were sent to Beijing by fast horses, and the first sentence was from Xu Miaojin's "The enmity of the monarch and father is not shared with the sky, and the enmity of brothers is not counterproductive." This is a-for-tat confrontation in politics, in order to win public opinion and the legal basis for raising troops, and occupy the commanding heights of etiquette and morality.
This first sentence makes the kings of the world and the king of Yan into the same breath between brothers, and faintly points out that there is a father-killing feud between the vassal king and the Jianwen emperor.
Zhu Di personally reviewed the revision, and the full text of the song is as follows, saying that since his father was already high in the Spring and Autumn Period, every year he would summon the kings to enter the court once or twice, and this was still the case on the day of health, and when he was critically ill, why not summon me and other sons to see him? I don't know what disease my father had, nor what medicine he was taking.
{Rite said: "If the king has a disease and drinks the medicine, the minister tastes it first, and if the relatives have a disease and drinks the medicine, the son tastes it first.} Even if the prince is divided into Yan, three thousand miles away from Beijing, but every year the Hajj, the horse travels for only seven days, and the father is sick for a long time, how can people not come to report? You can't see your father and the emperor, know what kind of disease, what medicine to use, and do the best of the gift of the son.
Who is there who has a father's illness and does not let the son know about it? Is there anyone who does not know his father's illness for the sake of his son? Is there a country in the world that is evil without fathers and sons? Those who do not have the gift of father and son are not human beings! In addition, the father and emperor did not collapse on the 10th day of the fifth month, and he was buried at the end of the year, and I don't know why it was so fast.
The rite said: "Three days to be buried, waiting for its resurrection." "Don't you die today, courtesy? In ancient times, from the Son of Heaven to the common people, how can there be anyone who does not report the death of his father to the son? Is there a father who dies and the son cannot run for mourning? And in January, Prince Fang Zhao and the world knew. In this way, my son and son will be the same as the common people. I don't know why my father's Emperor Zigong was buried in seven days, and I don't know why it was so fast?
The ceremony said: "The Son of Heaven was buried in July." "I will be buried on the seventh day today, what is the ceremony? Today, I see the edict saying that "the father and son of the Yanshu people, how can they bury their fathers and the emperor with the courtesy of the Shu people" can be sad!
The palace was demolished in a few days, digging five feet into the ground, and there was an edict: "Emperor Taizu Gao opened the foundation to start a business, pacified the world, worked hard for 30 years, disciplined and lawful, and painted a great treasure." It's like building a huge room, living with people, and those who are officials do not repair political affairs and do not abide by the law, such as demolishing the room and wanting to find a safe place, is it reasonable? ”
What is the purpose? Now the traitorous ministers have demolished the palace, which is contrary to what he said, so that the people of the world will obey the law. It's also difficult!
Confucius said: "The father is watching his will, and the father is watching his deeds, and he has not changed his father's way for three years, which can be described as filial piety." "My father survives. He said to the kings: "I will build a palace for the Son of Heaven, but I want to magnify the world, and all nations will come to court." Let him look at it and know the dignity of the Chinese Son of Heaven. However, this labor of the army and the people costs money and food. How easy is it? This palace was built so that it was so strong that future generations would not need to rebuild it for the sake of the army and the people. "Demolishing the ancestral industry today, courtesy, indecent?
Father Emperor Bintian, not to run to mourn, want to self-praise Beijing, fear that outsiders do not know that there is a will, so swallow the voice and endure the anger, dare not speak, tears cracked lungs and liver, tears fall from it, do not intend to commit adultery villains, intersect for evil, clever words and deception, change the ancestral law, do not know the "Emperor Ming Ancestral Teachings" imperial system preface: "All my descendants, admiring my life, do not be smart, mess with my law, not a word can be changed, not only live up to the meaning of my training, but the ancestors of heaven and earth will also be blessed in infinity." Woohoo, what a precept! ”
Fu from his father Emperor Bintian, Wen Qitai and other performances of etiquette, where a few feasts in the morning and evening, but not worship, and the rhythm of Xiaoxiang, the sacrifice is not intimate. I sent hundreds of households Lin Yu, Deng Yong and others to do things, and they were imprisoned, and they were trained in Chu, so that the king rebelled, and Yun "trained the sergeants without authorization, and made military weapons, and there must be other plans."
Qi Tai and others knew that there were two articles in the "Emperor Ming Zu Xun" guards: "Where the king coaches the sergeants, ten times a month, or seven or eight times, five or six times, if there is a police officer in the matter, or the king has a spare time, then the number is not restricted." Youyun: "When a king enters the court, he will accompany the civil and military officials, the horse and the banner army, regardless of the number." If the king fears that the supply will be heavy, consider the followers, and listen. Its sergeants honor the banner and guard the banner and the armor must worship the Ming and clean up, so as to strengthen the view of the subjects. "I want Emperor Taizu Gao to guard the feudal screen with his sons, so that he can train military horses and make weapons all year round, but he wants to prevent the border and protect the community, and the foundation will be in eternity, how can he be!
His traitorous ministers Qi Tai and others did not obey the ancestral law, committed adultery, and exercised the power to seize the power, the people of the world, but they knew that there was a court, and they no longer knew that there was a court.
Since July, he has ordered the evil young people Song Zhong and Xie Gui to come to see the slaughter, and in order to save their lives, they have to mobilize troops. Song Zhong and Xie Guiju have been arrested, and they have already heard about it, waiting for the verdict, and they have not been revealed to this day.
Qi Tai and others ordered Changxing Hou Geng Bingwen and other leading troops to be stationed in Xiongxian and Zhending to attack Beiping. In order to save his life, he had no choice but to move troops again, defeated the horses led by Bingwen, and captured the attached horse Li Jian, the governor Pan Zhong, Ning Zhong, and Gu Cheng, all commanding Liu Sui and commanding Yang Song.
The traitor Qi Tai unveiled the list and slandered him, and accused Emperor Taizu Gao. What a sin for such a great rebellion! On October 16, he ordered Cao Guogong Li Jinglong's army to lead the world's army to attack Beiping.
Bow to the elite and defeat them all. Li Jinglong fled at night. If this is done, the traitors Qi Tai and others will want to kill my father's descendants and destroy my father's foundation, with the intention of destroying everything, and will want the world to do the same. Such a traitor will not share the heavens with him, and will not take revenge, but will die.
Now that he is dying, he is looking forward to his father, Emperor Taizu Gao, who is clothed and killed, regardless of his life, he is difficult to start a business, and he is divided into sons, and he is wiped out before the deadline. Bow down to mercy, leave my father and emperor one or two sons and sons, in order to worship the ancestral incense, fortunately to the fortunate.
Otherwise, if you want to be killed, then hundreds of thousands of my people will surely die. Yan Yun: "One person is desperate, and a thousand people are not responsible." "Even if there are millions, there is nothing like that. May God have a good heart for life, and do not drive out the innocent to die under the white blade. If you listen to foolish words, quickly go to the treacherous people, and issue an edict of tolerance, so that the whole clan will be safe, and the people will always be safe. If you don't go, you won't share the hatred of the sky, and you will eventually get revenge. If you don't take revenge, you are not a filial son, and you are forgetting your great kindness. I plead for ruling. }
Xu Hao printed a full 100,000 copies of this plausible piece of music that no one knew, and sent it to all parts of the world through various channels to create momentum for King Yan.
Later, King Yan awarded rewards to the soldiers who had made meritorious contributions in battle, and Xu Hao's tired feet did not touch the ground, just because of Zhu Di's words: "No favoritism, no loss of public opinion, merit or merit, and no reversal."
A large number of generals and civil officials were promoted, and all of them were promoted to serve in the Beiping Metropolitan Division, but Xu Hao was inadvertently excluded from the core of power.
Zhu Di single-handedly controlled the Beiping Metropolitan Division and personally commanded the five armies, it can be said that all the elites belong directly to the king of Yan, and the generals not only include his henchmen who have followed him for many years, but also old subordinates for many years, and some officials and generals who were deposed because they were suspected of colluding with the king of Yan for rebellion.
The capital division can govern many guards, and the command status of the capital is much higher than that of the guards and guards. In contrast, Xu Hao, as a general who stayed in Beiping Mansion, seems to have a high status, but no matter how you look at it, it is a false position, there is not a single soldier in his hands, and at most he will mobilize some defenders from all over the country.
However, Xu Hao did not have any opinion on this, he had to order one person to fight, and besides, he had no ambitions, and he was even ready to take the initiative to resign as a general when the time was right.
On this day, Xu Hao hurriedly went to the Yanwang Mansion and said to Zhu Di: "When I was reorganizing and demoting, I found that there were ten people who were transferred from the guards of the imperial tomb. ”
Zhu Di was shocked and said, "Hurry up and invite everyone over." ”
Soon ten old family members walked in, Zhu Di couldn't help but feel sorry for it, remembering the years when he lived in Fengyang's hometown before the domain, the villagers in his hometown, the grass and trees on the mountain, and the bricks and tiles in the ancestral mausoleum are all vivid. As the old saying goes, you can't kiss your hometown.
Zhu Di stepped forward to greet them one by one, and said angrily: "You Chong doesn't think about the ancestral mausoleum. The guards came in tune. There are many corporal horses in the world, how can there be fewer of them? ”
Xu Hao knew that King Yan would not let go of any opportunity to attack the imperial court, so he came to report everything. At this moment, I also owe you Zhu Di's ability to use the topic. Having said that, without the shrewdness and foresight of this political policy, it would be delusional to want to be an emperor, and it is no wonder that few peasant uprisings were ultimately successful.
Why Zhu Yuanzhang was able to become the emperor, just look at Zhu Di in front of him to know the reason.
The soil is a mountain, and the wind and rain are prosperous; The water becomes a mountain, and the dragon is prosperous. Don't let go of all the details, as long as you can stick to it, the balance that was originally tilted may one day turn sharply.
On the 28th day of the first month, the Yan Wangfu issued a proclamation to the world, once again conveying the content of the previous recital, clearly and unmistakably saying that he wanted to avenge his father, and told the kings of the whole world, the officials of the large and small yamen, the military and the people, etc.
And co-opted the military generals whose status was lightened by the current court under the control of the civil ministers, and called on the capital of the world, and the commanders of the guards everywhere, "When you think of my father's kindness and virtue, work together, the whole soldier, the Ergo spear, and the star Chi come, and jointly capture the civil traitors of the left class, sacrifice them to the ancestral gods, and make them suffer extraordinary punishments." The upper is to uphold the king, and the lower is to secure the people, so that my father's and queen's descendants will inherit forever. ”
In the end, he claimed, "Today's traitorous ministers Qi Shangshu, Huang Taiqing, etc., Yu will not share the sky with him, and if he does not take revenge, he will die." Therefore, he used an article in the law of "Emperor Ming Zuxun" to lead 300,000 elite soldiers to punish the civilian traitors of the left class."
is sprinkled, the voice is snatching, and he reprimands the sins of the court without scruples. Secretly, Xu Hao tried his best, and hundreds of thousands of pamphlets were sent to various places with pictures and texts.
Inadvertently, the dozens of talented people who taught sergeants to read and write have become civilian writers again. Xu Hao simply set up positions such as editor-in-chief, editor, and reporter, and soon launched the first official newspaper of Yanwangfu.
On the cover of the book-like newspaper, four big characters are impressively printed, Yanjing Times! (To be continued......)
