my days with tyrants

Chapter 103 Heresy
Yang Feng immediately realized that he might have fallen into a trap.

Zhu Yuanzhang is also very likely to know.

It is impossible for the generals of Suzhou Wei not to know Tang He's daughter.

What's more, she still has relatives and friends in Suzhou.

And it is entirely possible for these people to report to Zhu Yuanzhang that she and Yang Feng got close. With Zhu Yuanzhang's brains, of course, he can guess that she and Yang Feng are likely to hook up. After all, a widow and a young man, together Is it because of pure friendship?

Pooh!
They're all sluts!

but……

Yang Feng is still useful!

He is still useful, so he can't be killed. Since he can't be killed, then he can't make the matter public. Instead, he has to pretend that nothing happened.

Just let him be trapped by beauty, and then feel at ease to be a cow and a horse for the Ming Dynasty.

She is nothing more than a daughter-in-law, not to mention that his son has been dead for several years. To be precise, he is a widow, and the only posthumous son of King Lu was not born to her. As long as this matter is kept a secret, then there is no need to worry about face.When one day I need to settle accounts with Yang Feng, but can't find a suitable reason, this can be regarded as his Ling Chi's crime, and then I will settle with him with a knife. As for Tang and her daughter, of course, they can only follow in her sister's footsteps.

His Majesty the Emperor has always been very patient in such matters.

In this case, Yang Feng felt relieved.

As far as the crimes that require Ling Chi are countless, do you still care about one more?
Too many lice don't itch, and too many debts don't weigh you down.

As long as I am not afraid of death, I can continue to die.

Besides, his daughter-in-law is still very tasty.

very……

"Life is full of joy, don't let the golden bottle face the moon!"

Ambassador Yang happily yelled to the group of people who had been mutilated in front of him.

The latter wailed.

Zhang Xianzong looked at him speechlessly.

"The ambassador is so excited!"

An old man with white beard and hair came to them and said.

Zhang Xianzong quickly stood up and saluted respectfully.

This is Liu Sanwu, a Hanlin scholar.

This old guy is not ordinary.

He is the core figure of those Confucian scholars at present.

His father, Hu Yuan, was a Hanlin scholar, and his three brothers were all great Confucians, but he is still alive now. Hongwu entered the dynasty in 18 years. Although he had ups and downs by Zhu Yuanzhang's side, he has always been a consultant. In addition, he is still Teacher Zhu Yunqi, it is said that in history, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to choose Zhu Di, but he stepped forward to stop it.

Of course, it's just blowing.

It was Zhu Yuanzhang's choice not to choose Zhu Di.

How can he have the ability to influence Zhu Yuanzhang's choice?

In other words, how could an emperor like Zhu Yuanzhang be influenced by a minister to choose his heir?

But in any case, he is one of the current core among the civil servants. The civil servants in Zhu Yuanzhang's era rose and fell too frequently, so there were no strong ones. After all, he did not allow strong civil servants.The current civil servant system mainly consists of scholars who act as consultants and secretaries but have no real power, that is, the system of Liu Sanwu and Zhang Xianzong, and even though they have real power, it is difficult for those civil servants of the Six Departments and Nine Ministers system to give advice to Zhu Yuanzhang.The latter is mainly Zhan Hui, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials and the Censor of the Left Capital, and Ru Yuan, the Minister of the Ministry of War and the Censor of the Deputy Capital. The former was originally killed because of the Lanyu case in history, but is still fine now.

He is a cruel official.

It tastes very good to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Originally, it was said in history that he was murdered by Zhu Yunwen.

When they interrogated Lan Yu together, Lan Yu was so angry that he casually said that he was also an accomplice. Zhu Yunqi immediately grabbed hold of him. In the end, the original presiding judge became an accomplice and was beheaded together. The agitation of Confucian scholars.

After all, everyone hates cruel officials, especially the cruel officials that Zhu Yuanzhang likes.

Ru Yu was much more cunning, so in the end she became a veteran of the three dynasties, even in Zhu Di's time, she could still be the Minister of the Ministry of War, and she was named Zhong Zhong Bo after her death.

Zhu Di also has a great sense of humor.

This is the current situation of the civil servants of the Hongwu Dynasty.

To put it simply, there is an emperor who is so powerful that he can handle everything, so he can only act as a machine for handling affairs, just like a group of machines that execute orders. Huang Zicheng and other newcomers to the imperial examination.

After all, the latter is young and full of vitality!

but……

He can't jump for a few years.

Because he is the core figure in the North and South List.

"Seeing so many people Lingchi together, how does Mr. Liu feel?"

Yang Feng said.

"I have seen a lot of old dead corpses and bloody seas. What are these people? The ambassador has seen what it is like to have 10,000+ dead corpses floating in the river. It's just Ling Chi. In addition to causing some trouble for the executioner, at least for the people of Daming at this moment, that is Add some entertainment."

The old man said with a slight smile.

Well, these people have more say in this.

"I don't know if the ambassador was in war at that time?"

he asked.

"Yes, there are fights everywhere, but compared to the troubled times where there are mountains of corpses and seas of blood, civilians are not killed very much. Although civilians will inevitably be affected, at least everyone maintains their face, and generally do not engage in massacres.

Especially those big countries, because they want to avoid giving excuses to their opponents, they try to exercise restraint.

In short, we try our best to solve it on the battlefield.

Of course, there are sporadic killings of civilians.

But once it is revealed, it is easy to get condemned by all parties.

In fact, the key is that at that time, this thing was very common, almost everyone had it, and they could all be connected. Not only could they talk to each other, but they could also see what each other saw. All countries can see it, even how it is fought on the battlefield.In this way, it will be difficult for us to have any sense of justice if we continue to massacre the city. Not only are other countries despising it, but the people in our own country feel ashamed and even oppose further fighting.

After all, even when you are fighting wars at this time, you have to talk about crimes against the people. Now that you have gone out to massacre the city, you obviously can't say that you are still against the people. "

Yang Feng pointed to his watch and said.

"People, you shouldn't know too much!"

Liu Sanwu looked at the picture on his watch and said somewhat shocked.

"Then what should they know?"

Yang Feng said.

"Loyal!"

Old man Liu said very simply.

Yang Fengrao looked at him with interest.

"Many ignorant people are ignorant, but only for self-interest, trapped in the pennies, limited to a fly, have no vision, no great knowledge, not enough to talk about grand plans, so they should not let them know too much, and the rulers should not be swayed by them It should be ruled by guidelines, bound by laws, and then let each of them keep their duties, cultivate for the farmers, conquer for the soldiers, and the scholar-bureaucrats seek the country. In this way, the world will be clean and orderly.

As for that. "

Old man Liu looked at the watch.

"It's just a thing of chaos!"

He said hatefully.

This old man still has a certain level.

Of course, he did it on purpose.

"You're not accusing me of running a night school on Wutai Mountain, teaching my workers what they shouldn't be teaching?"

Yang Feng said.

His place is almost becoming an industrial base now.

With the arrival of blacksmiths, potters and other hired workers in large numbers, the entire embassy area in Wutai Mountain is now overcrowded. Because of the lack of workshops, Yang Feng even applied for expansion.The entire Wutai Mountain is now full of thick smoke every day. The iron-smelting blast furnaces, cement-burning kilns, and chimneys are erected one by one. From a distance, Wutai Mountain is smoky.

Those who like Yang Feng say it's Xianqi, and those who don't like him say it's Yaowu.

But Zhu Yuanzhang liked it very much.

Because this is what he can prostitute for nothing in the future.

And Yang Fengguang's cement sample made His Majesty the Emperor very happy.

You must know that in the past, he had to use glutinous rice as the adhesive for the city wall. To wrap bricks for a city wall of more than one mile, it cost tens of thousands of catties of glutinous rice alone. In modern times, it has been copied, wrapping bricks for one kilometer, using glutinous rice in the ancient way and lime, and in the end fifty tons of glutinous rice were used.

This is food!
So even his Nanjing City, in fact, only the outer layer is glutinous rice and lime, and the inside is indeed city bricks, but the adhesive inside is mud.

He can't afford whole glutinous rice either.

Cement perfectly solves this problem.

Although Yang Feng is only experimental now, he has few manpower on Wutai Mountain, and the cement requires a lot of manpower to crush, and even has to be ground into fine powder, so the output is very small.The plan is to find a suitable place nearby, especially a place where hydraulic machinery can be repaired, and then build a real factory to increase production.

So His Majesty the Emperor is full of expectations.

He just waited for the new factories to be built, and then he copied them one by one, finally realizing his dream of covering all the city walls in the world with bricks.

but……

Of course Yang Feng wouldn't take private goods with him.

So he opened a night school on Wutai Mountain under the banner of teaching workers literacy skills.

Of course technology must be taught.

But some other things must also be taught.

After these workers have learned it, it is inevitable that some things will be spread down the mountain. In fact, it is not a particularly sensitive thing, but something like equality, mutual respect, unity and cooperation.

Very normal stuff.

After all, a factory must be united and cooperative.

The foundation of solidarity and cooperation is of course mutual respect.

The premise of mutual respect is of course equality.

"The ambassador was joking. Since His Majesty has never interfered, how dare the old man speak more?"

Liu Sanwu stroked his white beard and said.

Of course Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't interfere, he is now focused on waiting for free whoring, and of course he has to tolerate some small things if he can get free whoring, besides, Yang Feng mainly teaches technology, what can those craftsmen do for him, is it true that after listening to Yang Feng's demonic words to confuse the public? Dare to rebel?

What a joke!
However, it is very detrimental to the gentry!
Yang Feng is not only repairing the factory, but also building a new social model and a new production relationship.

This is terrible.

Yang Feng smiled.

"Old Liu, actually I know what you're talking about, and you also know that I know what you're talking about.

But you or you and your Confucian scholars, how you view this matter has nothing to do with me. As an envoy of a friendly country, I only follow the will of your emperor, since your emperor does not think that I do these things is wrong, then I will continue to do it.In fact, we will never become the same kind of people, and there is no possibility of agreeing with each other. What you have learned all your life, your thoughts, and the world in your eyes are completely different from mine.

The difference is clear.

The distinction between Wei and Wei is not enough to describe.

After all, Jingwei and Wei still have to be together in the end.

To be more precise, it should be two wheels of a car. We are both moving forward, but we will not come together.

Do you understand when I say that? "

Yang Feng said.

"Ambassador, in fact, the unicycle is the one that can walk all roads."

Old man Liu said slowly.

"But you can't decide the number of wheels. Two-wheeled vehicles, tricycles, and four-wheeled vehicles. We all had hundreds of wheels at that time. The more wheels, the more load-bearing the car. At that time, some wheels that had been used for a long time should be eliminated. Even if it is thrown away, it is nothing more than a new one."

Yang Feng said.

The old man looked at him deeply.

Yang Feng also looked at him deeply.

Then the two suddenly laughed...

"A car with hundreds of wheels, the ambassador is an eye-opener for the old man!"

Old man Liu stroked his white beard and said.

"What are hundreds of wheels? We have cars without wheels!"

Yang Feng said.

Then the old man smiled and got up and left.

Zhang Xianzong looked at Yang Feng with complicated eyes.

"So, I'm actually officially declaring war?"

Yang Feng said.

"You can take a step back, too.

It's not that they can't take a step back. After all, what they want doesn't have to be fought with you to get it. If you take a step back, they also take a step back. Wouldn't everyone be happy? "

Zhang Xianzong said.

After this conversation, Yang Feng and the Confucian scholars actually declared war.

"So they can actually abandon Zhu Yunqi?"

Yang Feng said directly.

Zhang Xianzong quickly shut up, pretending he didn't hear anything.

For the Confucian group, it’s okay to abandon Zhu Yunqi. The current situation is that they cannot prevent Zhu Yunxi from succeeding to the throne. After all, this was decided by Zhu Yuanzhang, and they have no ability to fight against this terrible emperor.And what they want is a country under the rule of Confucian scholars. It is not necessary for Zhu Yunqi to succeed to the throne.

Zhu Yunxi also needs Confucian scholars.

At most, they will not listen to them completely like Zhu Yunqi.

But the essence will not change.

As long as they are still feudal emperors, this will be the case. Even if they are rulers of foreign races, they still have to use Confucian scholars. No matter how bad the situation is, how bad it can be, but Yang Feng, a heretic, is different!

What he brought was a whole new system.

In a system without Confucian scholars, and he was so close to Zhu Yunxi, the Confucian scholars really began to be afraid. If Zhu Yunxi was bewitched by him and completely abandoned the Confucian scholars, it would be the end of the day.Old man Liu just wanted to test to see if Yang Feng was really planning to bring disaster to the world. If Yang Feng could compromise, then we could talk about the next exchange of benefits, but now Yang Feng has clearly stated that everyone has nothing to talk about.

The distinction between Wei and Wei is not enough to describe.

The more wheels the better, wouldn't that be a controversy?
It can also be thrown away at any time.

That is, Confucianism can also be thrown away.

Confucianism has worked hard for thousands of years, but in the end you can just throw it away?
What a fart!
Is there any room for compromise?

Since he wants to fight, let's keep fighting. Are Confucian scholars still afraid of him?
