Chapter 105 Dao

Wei Zhongxian finally left, very helplessly.He accepted Wei Ming's retreat.What will happen to Wei Ming now is unrealistic, not to mention whether it is difficult or difficult to do, and it will not do any good to him.Besides, he still doesn't have such strength and arrogance.

The ancients had a great characteristic, that is, if they did not quote scriptures when speaking and writing, they would not be able to speak or write.There is no way, the Four Books and Five Classics contain all these things, why not write about them?To learn is to learn these things.Therefore, in their thinking, if something becomes a classic, it must be correct, and there is no concept of rebuttal.Anyone who refutes it is treasonous.In fact, this thing is the general trend.Back then, Qin Shihuang burned books and buried Confucianism, all he wanted was to unify his thinking.Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty respected Confucianism exclusively.Later, it developed into Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism, which pushed the thought of Confucianism to its peak.People who are disobedient are dead, and those who are obedient can live well. This is the general trend.Too much thinking is not good for governance, everyone knows this.But how many people have thought about it, and if there is less thinking, it is easy to become rigid.And the consequence of rigidity is that this thing is just a rabbit's tail, and it can't grow.Surrounded by tigers and wolves, they are always peeping at this piece of fat in the Central Plains.Come up and take a bite whenever you get a chance.All when the ideology was too rigid to resist them, coupled with natural disasters and man-made disasters, all kinds of chaos weakened the power of the Central Plains, and the barbarians rose together to carve up the Central Plains.And when troubled times come, if you want to keep your foundation, you have to make progress.Progress will lead to ideological breakthroughs.And when all the dust settled, the Confucian school of thought stepped onto the stage again, helping the rulers to restrain the people, just like this, it has been like this for thousands of years.

Yang Lian came, and stood respectfully outside the Research Institute of the Ministry of Industry, waiting for Wei Ming to be interviewed.For this defender of the last orthodox tradition of the Ming Dynasty, Wei Ming still held a respectful attitude.No matter what people think or do is right or not, at least they can stick to one of their principles and stick to their bottom line.This is a matter of principle in life.Compared with Wei Zhongxian, who has no lower limit at all, Yang Lian is simply a god-like figure.

"Your Majesty Yang is here. I feel disrespectful, disrespectful, disrespectful!" The polite words are pleasant to everyone, and Yang Lian is no exception.Don't reach out and hit the smiling face.After a few polite words, Yang Lian was welcomed into the lobby by Wei Ming.No matter what the purpose of Yang Lian's coming, he must enter the room to talk, which is the minimum respect for people.

"As soon as Yang Yushi came, the research institute of the Ministry of Industry was full of glory! It is really an honor for my generation to have you here to guide me! The younger generation knows that there are still many shortcomings in what I do. I just hope that Yang Yushi Just don't think what I'm saying is worthless." Wei Ming spoke the truth, and absolutely did not mean to ridicule Yang Lian.In front of Yang Lian, a well-known gentleman, Wei Ming always felt a little guilty.Even if it was Zhang Juzheng, Wei Ming would not behave so badly.There is really too much psychological shadow.In the words of the previous life, the bottom of the pot is black, and the bottom of the butt is not clean.It's like meeting Wei Zheng in the early Tang Dynasty.

"You are welcome, Marquis Wei. You have promoted the planting of potatoes, corn, and sweet potatoes on a large scale, so that the people will not suffer from hunger. This is a good thing for the present generation and will benefit the future! You are indeed the leader of the younger generation, and the old man admires it. .” Yang Lian said very politely.For people like Yang Lian, to praise you is to praise you, to scold you is to scold you, and they will never play tricks on you.Seeing that you are unhappy, I can block your door and scold you for three days and three nights without repetition.In this kind of people's heart, good is good, bad is bad, and there is no middle value for you to choose.

"Not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning." Wei Ming laughed twice.Now he would rather Yang Lian come over and scold him harshly than talk like this.When did the censor start boasting?This is very abnormal.There must be demons in everything, so be careful.

"Marquis Wei, meritorious service is meritorious service. This old man will definitely report to the emperor and reward Marquis Wei greatly." Yang Lian said.Wei Ming felt that the old man hadn't finished speaking.How can there be such a thing, one credit can be rewarded twice?These credits were rewarded by Emperor Wanli and Zhu Youxiao. This is just leftovers, which is meaningless.Yang Lian's ultimate move should still be behind.

"But," sure enough, the old man didn't finish his sentence, and at this turning point, Wei Ming's heart froze.

"Yang Yushi has something to say, you can just say it, the boy just listen to it." Wei Ming quickly lowered his posture, lowered his head, and was ready to be taught.

"But the old man really doesn't understand. Since you can grow such good things, why do you need to grow tobacco and poppies? Don't you know that no matter how much food you grow now, it's not enough Do people in the world eat? Marquis Wei, I know that your purpose of planting those things is nothing more than money. However, you could have been an upright gentleman with a long history. Maybe you don’t think so, but when you reach the age of this old man, you will know that gold and silver are priceless, and it’s useless to ask for more. Only fame can last forever and be admired by future generations. To be a human being, you must Be an upright person, be a person who stands up to the heavens and the earth! It’s not proper to be a dog all day long! The old man thinks that you are still young and lack education, and you have made such great contributions to the world, so I will give you a reformation Don't go astray, it will be too late for regret." Old man Yang said while stroking his well-groomed beard.Wei Ming didn't suspect at all that Yang Lian was kind to him, and he really didn't want to see a young and promising person go astray and ruin his life.This is also the reason why Wei Ming was able to survive in peace for such a long time.While listening, he nodded to show that he was educated.If it was someone like Wei Zhongxian who came here to scold Wei Ming, Wei Ming would have already served him with a stick.Copper smell?Boss, how did Ming Dynasty end?Is it because there is no money?You have high morality, you are a saint, you can live a month with a bucket of rice, and you are willing to be a Taoist.However, not all people are willing to be a guardian with you.When the commodity economy develops, the obvious consequence is materialistic desires.People's demand for materials will increase again and again.Isn't it right to pursue a high quality of life?Is it wrong to want to eat meat?Wouldn't it be nice to want to have a full meal?Is it wrong to want to marry a beautiful wife?What do these need?All need money.This is social progress, not regression.Only when people in the whole society say, I live a happy life, this society is a truly happy society, a good society.As a gentleman, Yang Lian is qualified.But as an official of the imperial court, Yang Lian is not qualified.

"The boy is taught." Although he thought a lot in his heart, but when it came to his mouth, Wei Ming still expressed his friendliness.Yang Lian's evaluation in history is very high, but this also needs to find out the details.If you say everything rashly, you are not far from death.Wei Ming has been in the Ming Dynasty for several years, so he still understands such a little truth. "You are a member of the Donglin Party, and I am, in a sense, an enemy of the Donglin Party. If you come to tell me this, I'm afraid it will be bad for you, right?"

"What's wrong? What's wrong! I, Yang Lian, are such a person. If anyone has an opinion about me, they can raise it in front of His Majesty. What happened to the Donglin Party? Donglin Party members also have parents Wife, children, old and young. People in the Donglin Party also need to eat. What you do is right, and what you do is wrong. It will be the Donglin Party. We have the same goal, which is to build this country stronger and more prosperous, instead of intrigue and forming parties for personal gain. In that case, the need for us to be together will be lost. Donglin Party, there will be no Existence is necessary." Yang Lian said righteously.
