King of Han Dynasty of Ming Dynasty

This statement came out.

There was silence in the entire hall.

Jin Zhong, who was full of suspicion and suspicion just now, was stunned on the spot, looking at Zhu Gaoxu with a look of disbelief, and was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground.

He never dreamed that the King of Han was looking for him for such a purpose and reason.

"Open up the wisdom of the people in the world and hope that the people will not be fooled?"

What a great ambition and heroic spirit!

Within the four seas, throughout the entire history of dynasties, no one has ever thought of it, let alone done it, or even suggested it.

But over the years, the imperial examinations have evolved over the past dynasties.

From the spring and Autumn period when a hundred schools of thought contended, academics were like a forest, to now Confucianism is the sole focus.

And today's Confucianism has evolved from the previous Confucian masters who embraced all rivers into today's Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism. '

Zhu Gaoxu's words and great aspirations made people all over the world wise enough to do this.

Jin Zhong is not a fool. This requires more than just the court investing huge sums of money.

It is even more necessary to start with today’s education and education system.

Today's imperial examinations follow the "Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism" of the previous Dynasty. The implication is almost certain that it is to attack the entire "Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism" and eliminate it. This is something that can only be accomplished by removing the dregs and retaining the essence.

But, that is Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism!

It lasts for hundreds or even thousands of years.

A strict system and a huge system of interests and power have been formed.

Where can I move easily if I want to?
This incident is no less than a nuclear bomb explosion.

Once the slightest bit of news is revealed or any signs appear, how can people who have enjoyed the benefits of such a huge system of interests and power easily give in?
It will inevitably lead to an unexpected strong backlash.

At that time, the entire Ming Dynasty will definitely be in turmoil, and all the students in the world, those who have read poetry and books, will complain to the sky!
Doing this is no less than digging your own grave.

At this moment.

Jin Zhong finally understood what Zhu Gaoxu said before. He heard it and interpreted it as a threat.

Under such circumstances, if the roles between him and Zhu Gaoxu were reversed, his threatening words would be worse than fear!
However, after hearing Zhu Gaoxu's ambition and what he wanted to do, although Jin Zhong felt that he did not know the heights of the world and did everything too naturally, he could not help but feel a sense of admiration in his heart.

For a moment, Jin Zhong felt as if he saw a sacred halo surrounding Zhu Gaoxu as high as a hundred feet.

If this is really the case, he, Jin Zhong, is too petty in this matter, judging a gentleman's heart with a villain's heart.

Thinking of this, Jin Zhong couldn't help but feel a hint of guilt, embarrassment, and disbelief on his face. His eyes couldn't help but shrink, staring straight at Zhu Gaoxu's eyes as if he wanted to see through his heart. Genuine thoughts in general.

Feeling the eyes falling on him, Zhu Gaoxu didn't shy away and looked back at him without any cover-up, with a look of calmness and magnanimity emerging in his expression.

call.
The two looked at each other. After a long time, facing Zhu Gaoxu's calmness and frankness, Jin Zhong was the first to be defeated. He did not dare to look directly at Zhu Gaoxu. He took a few deep breaths and suppressed the throbbing in his heart. Feeling hot and slightly panicked, he forced himself to calm down. His half-lidded eyes suddenly opened, his voice became extremely low and depressed, and he asked:

"Prince of Han"

"Do you know what you are talking about?" After hearing this and feeling the change in the expression on Jin Zhong's face, Zhu Gaoxu shrugged noncommittally, with a calm expression on his face without any change, and said:
"Jin Shangshu, don't worry."

"What the king is saying in his words, or what purpose he has, I know better than anyone else in my heart, and my mind is clearer than anyone else. I don't need you to remind me about this matter."

"Jin Shangshu talks about the purpose of this king's trip and what he wants to do in the future."

"I have been honest with you and have nothing to hide."

"What's wrong? Does Jin Shangshu plan to regret it now?"

Hearing this, Jin Zhong's expression became solemn, the expression on his face became particularly solemn, and he shouted angrily:

"My lord."

"Have you ever thought about the possible consequences of this move and its impact on the entire imperial court?"

"The 'Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism' that started in the Song Dynasty and continues to this day for hundreds or even thousands of years!"

"This matter is not something that you, the Prince of Han, can shake with just a piece of paper and an idea."

"In this matter, even Emperor Gaozu of the Ming Dynasty, who was so murderous, did not dare to make the slightest move in the face of the entire 'Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism', a huge interest and complicated power that dominated the court and the world. ”

"The final result is just to hold one's nose and admit it, admitting that it is the orthodox 'doctrine' of the entire Ming Dynasty, even the court and the world."

"Now, you, the King of Han, Zhu Gaoxu, are just a 'supervisor of the country'. You are not even a prince, let alone an emperor. You are only half a point higher than the prince. What gives you such confidence?"

"Can you have such ambitions and thoughts, think that you can do it and shake this behemoth?"

"Do you know what the King of Han's behavior means in the eyes of the old ministers?"

"To put it harshly, it is undoubtedly an ant shaking a tree and not overestimating one's own capabilities."

"The power, interests, and various entangled forces involved during this period are intertwined. If we are not careful in this way, the Ming Dynasty may be at risk of collapse."

"but."

Of course, Zhu Gaoxu took a high look at the person in front of him who couldn't help but think about this.

Having said this, Jin Zhong paused, his arrogant attitude restrained in vain, his expression became extremely solemn, and the topic of conversation suddenly changed, he slowly closed his eyes that were suddenly opened due to excitement, and waved his hand at him ,road:

"That's it, that's all."

"Prince Han, don't worry"

"Old minister, I hope you will make profits for the world, the people, and the country."

"Although I don't support this matter, and I can't go with you, I will never reveal any information to outsiders."

"At the same time, I would also like to give a kind reminder to Prince Han. Regardless of whether it is you or the crown prince in the end, anyone who sits on the throne of the Ming Dynasty, please do not attempt to fight against the behemoth of 'Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism'."

"Think twice about the country and the people."

Say it.

Without any hesitation, he had given up the idea of ​​saying anything more. (End of chapter)
