Bury the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 320

After hearing Zhu Jinsong say that he planned to fight those people in person, the complexions of Zeng Cheng and other bigwigs darkened.

In all fairness, Zeng Cheng felt that instead of waiting for His Majesty the Emperor to do it himself, it would be more enjoyable for those people to commit suicide right now.

After all, he is not afraid of the emperor playing hooligans, nor is he afraid of the emperor being educated.

A rogue emperor like Liu Xiaosan is not scary, no matter how much this guy hates Confucianism, after all, there is still a Shusun Tong who can step up to a high position in his hands.

A literati emperor like Empress Li of the Southern Tang Dynasty is not scary. After all, as long as this kind of person finds out his preferences, it is still very easy to fool him.

Even if you meet an emperor like Zhu Yuanzhang who likes to cut people with a knife at every turn, it's okay-although Lao Zhu likes to use knives to solve problems when he can't talk to others, but Lao Zhu still abides by the rules of the game after all.

Even if he met those from the Aixinjueluo family, Zeng Cheng didn't think there was any problem. After all, the slave chiefs in that family were all slave owners. .

I'm afraid that an emperor who is capable of playing hooligans is also very cultured, and can even use his culture to play with the rules.

Coincidentally, the Ming emperor who is currently sitting on the dragon chair happens to be a non-mainstream emperor who is capable of playing hooligans, is very educated, and also likes to challenge traditional rules.

In the past, the emperors of the past dynasties tacitly abided by the unspoken rules such as "Punishment should not be punished by officials", "Share the world with scholar-bureaucrats", or "Don't express opinions easily when the court meets", "The way of civil and military lies in balance or using civil and military control" and other unspoken rules , in the eyes of this master, it is simply a joke.

Can't punish the doctor?
From Zheng Erkou to Zheng Yipin to even the current nobleman, as long as this master finds out that there is corruption or harm to the people, he will definitely kill him at will. There is no ambiguity at all.

Share the world with scholar-bureaucrats?
From the day this master rebelled, his line has been determined to share the world with the people of the world, not with the scholar-bureaucrats.

Do you not express your opinions easily during the court meeting?
The majestic emperor of the Ming Dynasty would scold the streets like a shrew whenever he felt uncomfortable during the great court meeting. Who would dare to believe that this is the Mingjun Holy Lord who surpassed the three emperors and matched the five emperors with virtue in the folklore?

As for saying that the way of civil and martial arts lies in balance or that the way of civil and martial arts is to control martial arts, it is even more insignificant in the eyes of this master.

This master neither needs to use literature to control martial arts, nor does he need to play games like balancing civil and martial arts.

Because all the troops of the Ming Dynasty were built by this master. In other words, the soul of the army of the Ming Dynasty was infused by this master. As long as this master is still panting, the army of Daming will not appear what is the problem.

Not to mention that the current court structure of Ming Dynasty is different from all dynasties in history—although the names of many yamen have not changed, the responsibilities and actions of each yamen have changed.

For example, the separated Dali Temple, Yushitai, Metropolitan Procuratorate, Jinyiwei, and Dongchang, these yamen are staring at the civil and military officials in the world. These yamen reached out.

To sum up, this master can be reasonable when he wants to be reasonable, and he can be a hooligan when he wants to be a hooligan.

Thinking of those unlucky bastards who only dared to publish some articles secretly and unknowingly provoked such a master, Zeng Cheng couldn't help feeling sorry for these unlucky bastards.

It's just distressed, but it's absolutely impossible to say sympathy.

Because the bullshit articles published by these people have affected Zheng Cheng, the official career of the chief assistant of the Ming Dynasty.

After thinking about it secretly, Zeng Cheng simply cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty Qizuo, I think that if you just publish some articles and confront these people in the newspapers, I'm afraid it won't be able to deter some young people."

Zhu Jinsong hummed, looked at Zeng Cheng and asked, "Then according to Zeng Qing's intention?"

Zeng Cheng said: "I heard that to hit a snake is to hit seven inches. It is better to cut off one finger than to injure ten fingers."

"Since these youngsters have whitewashed Qian Deaf Old Dog and those slave chiefs in the newspaper, then we don't need to be polite to them. We might as well use articles to refute them, and at the same time put them all in the list of second ministers. There are monuments erected in his village, so that the villagers know what these Xiaoxiao are."

"In addition, the minister thought that those who were already officials could be dismissed from their official positions, and they would never be employed within three generations and nine clans. Those who were engaged in business could also have government-run workshops in various places cut off their business routes."

"If you live by farming..."

Speaking of this, Zeng Cheng turned his attention to Zhu Sanshun again: "Didn't His Royal Highness go to sea to expand the territory of New Qinzhou? I think it's just right to transfer these bastards who are interested in Jianyi."

Zhu Sanshun immediately asked anxiously: "What are you kidding? You stuffed such a thing under my king's hands?"

"Well, if these people get mixed up with the barbarians from New Qinzhou, it will be easy for me to kill them all, but won't my speed of expanding the territory be hindered by this?"

But Zeng Cheng shook his head and said: "Your Highness, I certainly know that these young people are not good things, and I also know that it is not a good thing for them to go to New Qinzhou, but there is no way to do it."

Zhu Sanshun said with a dark face: "Why can't we do anything? Daming has so much land, can't it hold so many rubbish things? Let them follow the king to open up new land, do you think they can do things with their hearts or fight with their lives?" ?”

Zeng Cheng chuckled and didn't directly answer Zhu Sanshun's question, but Ke Zhiming glanced at Zhu Jinsong and said, "Your Highness Qizuo, I think what Elder Zeng Ge said is very true. It would be a disaster if these people stayed in Daming. Let them go to New Qinzhou with His Highness, let them see how hard it is to open up a new land, maybe these people will change their original thinking?"

Zhu Sanshun still shook his head and said: "As the saying goes, the country is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change. These greedy people can't change in Daming. Could it be that they can change when they follow the king to New Qinzhou?"

Ke Zhiming laughed aloud, and simply clarified the topic: "Your Highness doesn't know, the sea is rough and the waves are high, maybe a ship just sank?"

Hearing what Ke Zhiming said, Zhu Sanshun finally came to his senses.

Totally fine.

As long as these people still do not repent, then let these people follow me to open up new territories in New Qinzhou, but the sea is rough and the waves are high. If any ship happens to sink and these people happen to be in On that ship...

After Zhu Sanshun clapped his hands and answered, Zhu Jinsong tapped on the table and said, "Let's settle down for now. I'm not a cruel and tyrannical emperor who is easy to kill. I still have to give these people the chance."

Zeng Cheng thought about how you can be pulled down. If Qin Shihuang, Yang Er, and even Emperor Hongwu are not easy to kill, then it is still possible, but you are not easy to kill...

Those corpses in Jingguan may be the first to jump out and object!

……

The land in the south of the Yangtze River could actually be regarded as a barren land before the Tang Dynasty. It was not until the Tang Dynasty that the south of the Yangtze River began to be vigorously developed. after things.

It’s just that it should be said that since the end of the Song Dynasty, the literary style in Jiangnan has been extremely prosperous. In the 30th year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, there were even 52 Jinshi in a subject, 51 of which were southern scholars, and only one northern scholar. The situation made the unnamed northern scholars on the list very angry. They jointly went to the Ministry of Rites to file a complaint, saying that Liu Sanwu, as the chief examiner, favored the southerners.

According to historical records, after this incident, Lao Zhu first asked 12 people including Zhang Xin to re-read the examination papers. In order to increase the admission rate of northerners, Zhu Yuanzhang also specially selected each re-examination official from the failed examination paper. Ten copies will be heard by the retrial officials.

However, it is a pity that the answer sheets of the northern scholars are illiterate and there are many prohibited remarks. The North and South List case is actually more like a farce.

As for the fact that Lao Zhu created the Beibang for the sake of balance, and killed Liu Sanwu with public grievances, this is a tacit and tacit affair in the officialdom.

Yes, the reason why Lao Zhu killed Liu Sanwu was not because Liu Sanwu participated in the imperial examination fraud case.

In fact, Lao Zhu also knew very well that Liu Sanwu, who was 85 years old at the time, was unlikely to be involved in the imperial examination fraud.

The real cause of Liu Sanwu's death was that after the death of Prince Yiwen, Old Zhu once asked Liu Sanwu: "The king of Yan is like me, can you be the prince?"

Liu Sanwu said that you set the rules for setting up a heir and a head. If you set up King Yan, what would you make other kings think?What do you think of the dead Prince Yiwen?Prince Yiwen has a son!

Then, Liu Sanwu was hated by Lao Zhu-when Lao Zhu asked this sentence, Liu Sanwu should follow Lao Zhu's meaning and say that he should establish virtue, that is, make King Yan the prince.

After all, Lao Zhu is not stupid, he knows that Zhu Yunqi is not good enough to rule the world, but just as Liu Sanwu said, the rules of establishing a heir and an elder are set by Lao Zhu himself. If you want to change it, you must have a reliable person. The boss stood up and said that he could not stick to the rules.

Liu Sanwu, who is quite well-known and has excellent official and literary voices, and because he is old enough to be regarded as highly respected, naturally became the best candidate.

It's a pity that Liu Sanwu didn't understand what Lao Zhu meant, and instead insisted on establishing a heir and an elder. Can this not be hated by Lao Zhu?

The consequence of being hated by Lao Zhu is terrible-Liu Sanwu's most important thing in his life is reputation, and Lao Zhu just solved Liu Sanwu with the imperial examination fraud case, which completely abolished Liu Sanwu's reputation.

To kill someone, one must punish one's heart.

It wasn't just the founding emperor of Ming Dynasty, Old Zhu, who was good at killing and killing people's hearts. The Emperor Zhu of Ming Dynasty who was sitting on the dragon chair was also good at killing people's hearts.

There is also Zeng Cheng, the chief assistant of the Ming Dynasty, he seems to be very good at this kind of old man.

Emperor Zhu first asked people to publish an article in the "Da Ming Newspaper", refuting the articles about calling out the souls of Qian Deaf and the old dog's family. A family of literati who summoned their souls was simply a sick man because they were chasing slaves who were slaves.

That's right, they just use the vernacular "simply sick" to scold people, and they scold people openly in the newspapers.

What people in different positions say and do, the effect is completely different.

It is normal for an ordinary person to swear in vernacular, but it is extremely unusual for an emperor to swear in vernacular—although the emperors of Ming Dynasty all inherited Lao Zhu’s preference for using vernacular, except for Lao Zhu and Zhu Laosi, None of the successive emperors of the Ming Dynasty ever scolded others in plain language.

Zhu Jinsong and Emperor Zhu's behavior of swearing in vernacular directly gathered a large number of diehard fans among the people-or it can be said that the [-] million diehard fans of Emperor Zhu and his old man didn't care that Emperor Zhu used They are more curious about the behavior of swearing in plain language.

What kind of person and what kind of words did he say to make the always good-tempered Emperor Ming into such a bear?
Out of curiosity, the people naturally searched for tabloids and pamphlets that called out the souls of Qian Deaf and Old Dog's family.

Then, the people in the world became angry.

If these tabloids and pamphlets calling out the soul of Qian Deaf and the Old Dog's family were released decades later, for example, after Zhu Jinsong died, or if Zhu Jinsong hadn't paid attention to Qian Deaf and the Old Dog's family and those who proposed If the Yi and Baoyi Ahhas are going to liquidate, then these tabloids and pamphlets may still be able to play a little role.

The question is how many years has it been since the fall of the Qing Dynasty?How many years has it been since the deaf old dog has been cold?

The people of Ming Dynasty at this time still remember how Qian Deaf and the old dog went to the south of the Yangtze River more than ten years ago!I even remember how those mite uncles harmed the people back then!
Therefore, the people of Daming can accept that someone scolds the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, and they even like to hear people scold the emperor, after all, it is considered a pleasure.

However, the people of Daming couldn't accept that someone called out the souls of Qian Deaf and Laogou's family, let alone smear Zhu Jinsong, who drove away Jianyi, rebuilt the Daming country, allocated land for the people, and let the people have enough food and clothing. Warm emperor of Ming Dynasty who has books to read!
At this time, it was revealed that a scholar like Zeng Cheng was bad.

If it was in the past, or before the year of Chongzhen, most of the struggles of the literati would have stayed on paper or in the officialdom. Even if the common people knew the truth of the matter, they would probably have nowhere to vent their anger.

But it’s different when it comes to Zeng Cheng. Mr. Zeng Ge decided to disclose all the information about those who wrote the soul-calling articles after careful discussion with the big bosses from the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate. go out.

The people of Ming Dynasty immediately had a goal!
