Chapter 812 Dancing on the Sword
Yang Reform smiled wryly.

Advocating Western learning will definitely have an impact on Confucianism today.

Yang Reform knew that Kong Yinzhi would come to him, and sure enough, he came to him again.

Yang Reform knew that in the wave of tearing up Confucianism, he was under a lot of pressure as Yan Shenggong, and he was lucky not to be torn into a psychopath.

Kong Yinzhi's special status determines his special use. Of course, before using him, he must be washed, and he must be awakened to something. Only in this way can he be considered complete, otherwise, this matter There will always be regrets.

This is why Yang Reform has always made Kong Yinzhi roll in the wave of tearing Confucianism.

Looking at Kong Yinzhi who was crying, Yang Reform sighed. The force pulling and tearing Kong Yinzhi was definitely not small, and the pressure on him was definitely not small.Although compared with himself, his little pressure was nothing, but as the emperor, he was born immune to many things, born to ignore many things, which Kong Yinzhi could not compare with himself.Therefore, in terms of pulling speed, Kong Yinzhi may not be lower than himself.

"...Oh, well, I know what the Qing family said..." Yang Reform comforted him with kind words.An old man was crying bitterly in front of him. This scene was indescribably weird.

"...Your Majesty..." Kong Yinzhi really wanted to cry aloud to vent his frustration.Quit this game, or continue this game?Should we continue to stand on the side of the emperor, or stand on the opposite side of the emperor?Should he continue to be his Yan Shenggong and keep his ears shut?Or hold on until the moment when the emperor reveals the mystery?Or, continue on your own path to holiness?Or give up?He was at a loss as he was suffering the pain of being torn apart.

"The Qing family has persisted for so long. It's a pity to give up now..." Yang Reform did not persuade Kong Yinzhi, but directly said this. Many things have been said, and the truth should be said. I've said it all, and it doesn't seem necessary to repeat what I said. Yang Reform believes that since Kong Yinzhi has reached this point, he won't give up easily. If he gives up, he will find someone else To take over his role, I don't have to have him.

"Your Majesty, all these things are really tormenting the subject. I feel the pain of tearing all over my body all the time..." Kong Yinzhi said with some intention of begging for forgiveness.It was only with the emperor that he dared to reveal himself and let go of himself. Outside, he was still Duke Yan Sheng, and he was still a descendant of a saint.

"I know the pain of the Qing family, but I still say the same thing. I have absolutely no intention of lying to the Qing family. I believe that the Qing family is willing to endure such pain because they believe in my reputation, right?" Yang said. Reform said.The quality of a person's reputation is reflected at this time. If the reputation is good, others will naturally believe it. If the reputation is not good, no one will believe what they say. It is often inconvenient to do things.Taking credit as a guarantee, in many cases, works better than many things.

After hearing this, Kong Yinzhi seemed to have calmed down a lot. Indeed, to a large extent, his persistence for so long was based on the belief that the emperor would not lie to him, otherwise he would not eat this Suffer, suffer this crime.If the emperor is an emperor who doesn't mean what he says, or who says he has no ability to do it, he will not torture himself like crazy.Thinking of the emperor's good reputation and ability, Kong Yinzhi's heart seemed to be injected with a booster, and he seemed to find enough reasons for himself to persevere.

There was a little silence for a while.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have carefully thought about what His Majesty said to reprimand me, and I feel that what His Majesty said makes sense. The descendants of a saint should not enslave and exploit the disciples of a saint. If the ancestors knew it, they would definitely scold the minister for being unfilial... "Kong Yinzhi spoke out about this question, which has always been a sword that split his heart.

"Oh, is that so?" Yang Reformed said.Exploitation and being exploited are topics that have been inseparable from ancient times to the present. It seems a bit too much to talk about this topic in this era, because in today's productivity, production relations, or the times, exploitation cannot be avoided. No matter it is the Ming Dynasty today, or the 21st century, or the era of Confucius, they cannot escape the shroud of exploitation. It is enough to talk about this thing. If it is said that there is no exploitation, no exploitation, and elimination of exploitation, this is impossible, or That said, what can be discussed and what can be done today is to change the way of exploitation.

"...Your Majesty, I have thought about it. The descendants of the saints cannot exploit the disciples of the saints. I plan to distribute the family's land to the common people, and to those who are successful in studying. There will be no servants and servants in the family..." Kong Yinzhi said.

"This is unnecessary." Yang Reform hurriedly stopped him.If the Confucian government really divided the land and dismissed the family and servants, it would be a sensation. I am afraid that I will have to bear the crime of persecuting the descendants of the saints.

"...As I said before, I am not blaming the Qing family for this matter, but just enlightening the Qing family with this matter. What I want is that the Qing family can find the reason and be inspired by it. The gentry all over the world have fields. They all have servants and servants, if the Qing family suddenly divides the land and dismisses the servants and servants, people in the world will think that I am playing a role in it, so the Qing family is not enslaving me to injustice?" Yang Reform said hastily.

Dividing the land is not what Yang Reform needs to play now.

"Your Majesty's lesson is right!" Kong Yinzhi agreed, somewhat worried, and relieved a little.

There was a little silence for a while, and the topic was a bit stiff.

"As far as the matter is concerned, what does the Qing family think of Master Xu? What do they think of Western learning? What does the Qing family say?" Yang Reform changed the subject.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, although Xu Zixian joined the Barbarian religion, I never believed that Xu Zixian would really believe in any Barbarian religion in a wild land tens of thousands of miles away. As for joining the Barbarian religion, I think it was just for the convenience of learning. It’s all about the strengths of the barbarians. Judging from what Xu Zixian is doing now, all of them are for my Ming Dynasty, and all of them are for the common people. According to Buddhism, there is a kind of generosity and grandeur that I don’t go to hell, who goes to hell. They all believe that Xu Zixian is still a Confucian scholar at heart, a Confucian who is dedicated to saving the people of the world, this, I think, can not be wrong, Xu Zixian should be a model for my generation..." Kong Yinzhi said immediately, without saying anything about Xu Guangqi It's not a bad word at all, and Xu Guangqi is praised extremely high.

I am not as good as hell, who goes to hell?Yang Reform was stunned by Kong Yinzhi's words, and he felt something in his heart. Indeed, with the status and glory of the Ming Dynasty, scholars in this era, especially those who are honored by the Ming Dynasty like Juren and Jinshi, Those who are willing to let go of their airs, open their eyes to see the world, and devote themselves to studying, if they don't have the blood and loyalty in their hearts, I'm afraid they can't do it.This is not the China that was opened by the West with artillery at the end of the Qing Dynasty, and slaves who sold themselves everywhere, this is the Ming Dynasty.

Yang Reform remained silent for a while.

"...That's true, but I have to admit that learning the strengths of the barbarians and admiring them will indeed have a considerable impact on Confucianism, and even tear it apart..." After a long silence, Yang Reform also admitted.

This time, it was Kong Yinzhi's turn to be silent. Everyone knew the relationship between Confucianism and imperial power.

……

Yang Reform said some words of encouragement and comfort to Kong Yinzhi, and sent Kong Yinzhi away again.Yang Reform knew that after encouraging and comforting Kong Yinzhi for a while, he might be able to hold on for a while longer.

Watching Kong Yinzhi leave, Yang Reform also sighed with emotion. This great change involves all aspects are indeed very complicated. There are many things that I have to step up to promote, and some things must be unswervingly persisted.There will definitely be fights...

There was another long silence.

"Big companion..." Yang Reform suddenly asked.

"Your Majesty, the servant is here." Wang Chengen quickly agreed.

"How is Zhang Xianyong recently?" Yang Reform asked suddenly.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Zhang Zhenren has been very energetic recently, and now he looks more and more like a fairy." Wang Chengen quickly replied, in fact, Wang Chengen is a bit contemptuous of Zhang Xianyong. Others don't know his details, but he knows everything, what kind of fairy? , is a liar, isn't everything about Zhang Xianyong given by the emperor?As long as it is an individual, as long as the emperor is willing, the emperor can make him a god.

"Oh, let Zhang Xianyong come to see me tomorrow." Yang Reform said.Today, the turmoil caused by advocating Western learning has not been eliminated, but has counterattacked together with the pressure accumulated in the past.Because advocating the Western Society has something to do with official positions, this turmoil cannot be settled easily. If the people on the Western Learning side are in positions, then other people must have no seats. After all, there are only so many seats, so this The battle among them is quite complicated.

Yang Reform decided to move the other rotor and let this rotor reduce the pressure in this regard, so as to achieve a certain balance.Now the spearhead seems to be aimed at the western learning headed by Xu Guangqi. Yang Reform is going to let Zhang Xianyong's Taoism take a turn, make some noise, squeeze and squeeze Confucianism, and let Confucianism "internal" unite, so as to alleviate the admiration of Western learning. coming pressure.Just like what Kong Yinzhi said, there are not a few people who think that Xu Guangqi is a Confucianist even though he studied Western learning. Kong Yinzhi's statement is still very marketable. ", presumably more people will support Xu Guangqi to cope with this challenge and squeeze.

"Slave servant leads the order!" Wang Chengen agreed, looking at the frowning emperor, Wang Chengen didn't know what the emperor was thinking.

Yang Reform frowned, his mind was flying all over the sky.

Move Taoism, let Taoism "challenge" and "squeeze" Confucianism, so as to achieve the goal of "unity" of Confucianism, so as to consolidate Western learning, and then use the trend of anti-drift to divide and suppress bureaucrats, so that they dare not move too much , This can be regarded as a series of actions.In addition to controlling the trend of the court, economic actions have to be accelerated. After all, only after more people have tasted the sweetness and gained benefits, will they maintain new things. These people have the instinct to seek profits.

After calculating his own strategy, it seems that he can plan for ten years, decades, and at that time, the big change plan will be basically completed, and he will not be afraid of repeating it.In other words, I might have to persist like this for ten years, or even decades. Thinking that I want to dance on this sword for ten years, decades, Yang Reform sighed, the life of the emperor is not so easy.
