Chapter 23 One Night of Hunger, Enlightenment of Infinite Killing
Zhu Yijun looked at the writing on the table, which was his summary of the Analects of Confucius, and he said in a serious and conclusive way: "It is said that if you are poor or humble, you will be flattered, if you are rich or honored, you will be arrogant, if you are polite, you will collapse, and if you are happy, you will be spoiled." .”

Zhang Juzheng has been thinking about how to refute His Majesty. Before he can refute, he needs to find answers to two questions.

He has no way of knowing how not to kneel when he has no food to eat and no clothes to cover his body, and his feet are hurt by gravel.

He also has no way of knowing how rich and noble people, after treating people as objects, can't even abide by the law, how to pursue morality, because the law is only the bottom line of morality.

He couldn't know the answers to these two questions, so he couldn't refute His Majesty's question. Could it be that he answered His Majesty dryly, that he lived in poverty but was rich and courteous?
Isn't that fooling children?
After thinking about it, four big characters suddenly flashed in front of my eyes: kill the rich and help the poor!
Confucianism is a theory that pays attention to respect and order. As soon as these four words appeared, Zhang Juzheng broke out in a cold sweat. He hurriedly smashed these four words and told himself: the sage must be right!

Soon, another question appeared in Zhang Juzheng's mind, must the saint be right?
Zhang Juzheng, who has been studying for 48 years, has a rock-solid ideological seal, which has produced a few cracks.

Once a seed is planted, it will take root and germinate, and then blossom and bear fruit.

"Your Majesty, why don't you read "Di Jian Tu Shuo"?" Zhang Juzheng decided to change the topic, and said quite sincerely that these stories were all compiled by him, and he was very confident that he could answer His Majesty's doubts, instead of letting His Majesty keep doing this Go apostate!
To protect the three cardinal principles and five constant principles in His Majesty's heart, Zhang Ju is upright!
"Okay." Zhu Yijun picked up the picture of Emperor Jian and said, flipping it over, "Then let's talk about the fact that Song Renzong valued grains but despised pearls and jade."

Zhang Juzheng felt a little regretful when he heard it, it might as well be talking about the Analects of Confucius, the Analects of Confucius is just truth.

As soon as the story of expensive grains and cheap pearls and jade is told, His Majesty will definitely mention farming and mulberry. This is practice.

Zhang Juzheng said solemnly: "During the time of Renzong in the Northern Song Dynasty, pearls were loved in the palace, and the big and round were considered beautiful. There were many buyers in the palace, which caused the price of pearls to soar in Bianliang City, the capital at that time. Zhang Guifei wore pearl ornaments. Hiding her face and refusing to look at it, she said, "Pearls and jades are all white, almost an ominous appearance. Why is there no taboo? Zhang Guifei hurriedly took off the ornaments when she heard the words, and Renzong was delighted."

"The emperor doesn't like pearls and jade, and the palace no longer buys them, and the price of pearls and jade has dropped accordingly."

The reason why Song Renzong is Renzong is not only that he is not good at extravagance, but also that he will not embarrass the palace people with the dignity of the emperor. Song Renzong is an out-and-out good man. He also wants to do things, but he has no son. No matter what you do, you can't do your best.

"What about Song Renzong's precious five grains?" Zhu Yijun sat upright and asked about another allusion of Renzong.

Zhang Juzheng bowed his head and said: "During the reign of Emperor Renzong of Song Dynasty, he paid attention to farming and mulberry. When he found an open space in the back garden, he asked people to plant wheat and build a small pavilion called Baoqi Hall. One stem of wheat has two ears, which is called "Baoqi Palace". Yueqi, every harvest season, Renzong will go to Baoqi Hall to check in person, and will personally cut the first bunch of wheat and shell it."

Zhu Yijun smiled and asked: "Then, may I ask Mr. Yuanfu, Emperor Renzong of Song Dynasty, can he be worthy of the word benevolence?"

Zhang Juzheng replied: "Song Renzong said: Treasures like pearls and jade can't be eaten if you're hungry, and you can't wear them when you're cold, but a small thing is worth a lot, and it's not advisable to waste tens of thousands of people's support. It's just for play for a while."

"Emperor Renzong of the Song Dynasty, as the Son of Heaven, came to farming in person and knew the pain of farming. He often said to people: Among the scholars, farmers, businessmen, this farmer is probably the hardest. The grain rent and the private demands of the local rulers, as a result, there is not even a full meal."

"Emperor Song Renzong, respectful, thrifty, benevolent and forgiving, outstanding in modern times, naturally he can be called benevolent."

Zhu Yijun then said: "I heard that there is an auspicious thing in Luo Gongchen, Haifang Tongzhi. It is called potatoes, and the yield per mu is more than a thousand catties. Although I am young, I still dare not forget the emperor's entrustment. I want to imitate the old things. Five grains, reducing the expenses of the Qianqing Palace, building the Baoqi Palace in Jingshan, and marrying farming and mulberry, with a view to strengthening the country and rejuvenating the Ming Dynasty.”

"What does Mr. Yuanfu think?"

Longevity Mountain and Jingshan Mountain are both the emperor's royal garden and royal garden. In the early Ming Dynasty, they were mainly used to pile up coal to prevent the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty from besieging the capital. There was no firewood available, so they were also called Coal Mountain.

In Jingshan, there is the Shouhuang Hall, where you can climb high, enjoy flowers, have banquets, and shoot arrows. There is also Guande Hall, the school ground of the Ming emperor, where you can test the archery of the emperor's heirs.

Zhang Juzheng originally wanted to protect the position of Da Dang in Feng Bao Palace, and he also intended to agree. Now His Majesty said this matter through two passages in the Emperor Jian Tu Shuo, and said respectfully: "I think it is good. I have heard that: one Hunger in the evening, endless killings, the ancient sage kings, all of them put persuading the farmers as their first task, but they praised the prosperity and prosperity, and the farming work was too wasteful, your majesty is sage."

Zhang Juzheng agreed that Emperor Gao's cultivation of land in Huangming's ancestral training was a spare ammunition. If someone objected, he could use the method of his ancestors to suppress them again.

One night's hunger, endless killing, Zhang Juzheng specifically told the little emperor what he meant.

If the common people can't even eat a meal, they will gather and riot, and endless killings will start from then on. Therefore, the ancient holy kings of all dynasties, did they take persuading farmers and mulberry as their top priority, but they just sang too many exaggerated hymns Farming is slowly falling into disrepair.

Zhu Yijun asked curiously: "I heard from my mother that Meng Shengren once reprimanded the disciples of agriculture for the monarch and the people to work together. Why did Mr. Yuan Fu speak ill of you?"

Zhang Juzheng said quite precisely: "Mencius' criticism of farming with the monarch and the people is because he is worried that the monarch will accept the agriculture and be too obsessed with farming and absurd government affairs."

"Mencius said: All the craftsmen in the world can't cultivate and do it. That is to say, all the craftsmen in the world have their own things to do. Of course, they can't stop doing their own things just because they are farming."

"Gentlemen have affairs for government, common people have careers for livelihood, whether they work hard, or work hard, the world is universal."

"Mencius refuted agriculture, refuted the common cultivation of the monarch and the people, not refuted the marriage of farming and mulberry, still less refuted emphasizing agriculture, and even less refuted benevolence and forgiveness."

"That's it." Zhu Yijun understood Zhang Juzheng's words. Zhang Juzheng is not the kind of person who embraces the sage's book, every word and every sentence, and regards it as a code of conduct. He has his own ideas about the sage's book, or the operating logic of this world. perception and understanding.

In Zhang Juzheng's opinion, the little emperor wanted to grow potatoes and sweet potatoes. In Zhang Juzheng's opinion, it was not a bad thing. The emperor of the Ming Dynasty had his own hobbies. Farming was better than fighting crickets, cultivating immortals and alchemy.

Emperor Gao, the great ancestor, was still farming the land himself. If he had the ability, he ran to Emperor Gao and said, "Emperor Gao, you are doing it wrong!"

What Zhang Juzheng meant was: Anyway, the little emperor is not in charge of the government, and he is idle when he is idle. He cares about farming and mulberry, and can see the suffering of all people. When he governs in the future, it will be better than being coaxed by others.

"Then Lao Yuanfu will quell the criticism from the foreign court. Feng Daban, can you free up a few acres of land in Wansui Mountain today to build Baoqi Palace?" Zhu Yijun looked at Feng Bao.

Feng Bao's heart hanging in his throat completely fell back into his stomach. He quickly knelt on the ground and said quite sincerely: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, it will be finished tomorrow."

There are orchards planted all over Jingshan Mountain, named Baiguoyuan. Feng Bao asked people to inspect it. The land is fertile, and the fruit trees in Baiguoyuan were moved to other places. Jingshan is so big that it can accommodate the Emperor Ming to plant a few acres of Susukida and promote his own. benevolent government.

Zhu Yijun and Zhang Juzheng continued to talk about all kinds of things in "Di Jian Tu Shuo". In the book in his hand, every story has a full-color illustration, which is extremely well-made.

After the banquet was over, the book exhibitors, attendants, and attendants began to leave. After they had completely left, Zhu Yijun did not get up to attend the ceremony and end the lecture. Instead, he took out a memorial, which was Tan Lun's official memorial.

"Mr. Yuanfu, let's not approve Tan Shangshu's memorial for his official appointment." Zhu Yijun talked about the affairs of the court. The attitude is that Tan Lun is not allowed to become an official.

reason?

The reason is that he doesn't want to fall asleep and fall asleep with his head gone.

Zhang Juzheng hesitated for a moment and said: "This is the appointment of a Beijing official. It is all ordered by the emperor. I shouldn't say too much. Your Majesty is young, and I overstepped. It is a bit ridiculous to say that Tan Lun's corpse is a vegetarian meal."

The appointment and removal of Beijing officials is the core part of the imperial power. Even in the Hongwu Dynasty Prince Zhu Biao supervised the country, the Yongle Dynasty Prince Zhu Gaochi supervised the country, and the Xuande Emperor Xiang Wang Zhu Zhanqian supervised the country, the appointment and dismissal of Beijing officials had to be approved by Emperor Zhu.

Zhang Juzheng shouldn't have said that Tan Lun was in charge in front of the emperor, but the emperor asked him for his opinion. As the emperor's teacher and the only remaining auxiliary minister, Zhang Juzheng still expressed his attitude.

Even if the emperor doesn't ask, Zhang Juzheng will clearly state the reasons why the cabinet disagrees with Tan Lun's appointment in the draft of the memorial, and the decision will be made by the Empress Dowager Li.

However, in drafting the bill, Zhang Juzheng would not just say that Tan Lun did not do nothing because he was a vegetarian, but he clearly stated the interests of Wang Chonggu's list of generals and the exchange of interests in it. Understand the key.

Zhang Juzheng didn't want to talk to ten-year-old Zhu Yijun about the filth in the adult world in detail.

It's just that no matter how Zhang Juzheng looked at it, he felt that the little emperor seemed to understand what was going on.

Zhu Yijun really understands, the matter is not complicated, Tan Lun jumped against the Jin Party, the Jin Party liquidated Tan Lun, Zhang Juzheng wanted to save Tan Lun.

From the standpoint of the Jin Party, Tan Lun was treacherous, and indeed his personal morality was at a disadvantage. He did not arrange for Tan Lun to commit suicide by shooting [-] shots in the back, because Tan Lun was in the capital.

But Zhu Yijun stands on the position of the imperial power and Ming Dynasty, all the generals in the Beijing camp from top to bottom are members of the Jin Party, he should not be the emperor anymore, he will screw his head off tomorrow and let the Jin Party play tricks .

The Jin Party, an unbreakable political alliance?It's nothing but self-defeating.

Tan Lun was recommended by Yang Bo. As a result, Tan Lun was not in step with the Jin Party on the crucial matter of promoting the generals of the Beijing camp.

"Mr. Xie Yuanfu." Zhu Yijun got up and bowed slightly, ending today's lecture.

"Resignation." Zhang Juzheng hurriedly bowed his head to return the salute. According to etiquette, he had to kneel down to answer, but the emperor had something to spare him from playing the red tape. Hua Dian, Zhang Juzheng always felt that something was wrong when he walked towards Wen Yuan Pavilion opposite Wen Hua Dian.

The little emperor seemed to have a clear understanding of things like the exchange of benefits.

After lunch, Zhu Yijun started to practice martial arts again. He was still the stubborn little emperor. Zhu Xixiao, who was in charge of teaching the little emperor to practice martial arts, realized that the Ming emperor practiced martial arts for real.

Because the emperor was serious, Zhu Xixiao's attitude became extra serious.

According to the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty, the heir of the Ming Dynasty should be in Cheng Ding, that is, at the age of 15, when all three arrows are hit. Due to various complicated reasons, after all, in the first year of Zhengtong, after Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen ascended the throne, this assessment was repealed.

At that time, Empress Dowager Zhang and Empress Dowager Sun didn't want Zhu Qizhen, who was only nine years old, to suffer too much.

Now Queen Mother Li doesn't want the little emperor to suffer too much, but the little emperor has his own ideas and seems to have persuaded Queen Mother Li.

Zhu Xixiao is very grateful to the little emperor. For Wang Zhanglong's case, if His Majesty the Emperor did not appear in Beizhen Fusi, it would be difficult for the Beizhen Fusi Yamen to take care of himself. In this case, a lot of trouble was saved.

If the emperor doesn't go, no matter how he tries, he will either offend the Jin Party or Feng Bao.

For Zhu Xixiao, these are people he can't afford to offend. Jin Yiwei is no longer the time when Lu Bing was in charge during the Jiajing period and had great power.

The emperor went to Beizhen Fusi, the imperial power is supreme, the sky is clear, this case is in full view, Zhu Xixiao doesn't have to be forced to stand in line.

"Ti Shuai, the court recommends the generals of the Beijing camp, and the people who accompany me to practice martial arts are all eunuchs, so there are no guards or swords to accompany me to practice martial arts?" Zhu Yijun slowly received the prince, calmed down, and then said.

Xunwei and Daosheren are the official positions of the hereditary martial arts of the Ming Dynasty before the succession of titles, Baihu, Qianhu, Bo, Hou, and Gong.

Zhu Xixiao's complexion changed and he said, "Yes!"

Why is the Tiqi brought by Lu Bing so powerful and even suppressed the governor of the East Factory?
Because Lu Bing's mother was the wet nurse of Emperor Jiajing, Lu Bing had been in and out of the palace with his mother since he was a child, and grew up with Emperor Jiajing when he was young;
In the 18th year of Jiajing, Emperor Jiajing traveled south to Weihui, and the palace was on fire. Lu Bing rushed into the fire and recited Emperor Jiajing;

In the 21st year of Jiajing, the Renyin Palace changed, and the maid assassinated Jiajing and almost strangled the Emperor Jiajing to death. It was Lu Bing who rushed in to rescue him immediately.

Of course Zhu Xixiao would like to recommend Xunwei and Sheren with a sword to practice martial arts with His Majesty.

But could the Empress Dowager and Feng Bao agree on this matter?
 It is very important to follow up!Wu·Xiang·Who·Lin·Yu·Sister-in-law·Gui repeated it again.Kowtow, kowtow, bang bang bang, ask for all support, ahhhhhhhhh~~ woo! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! (づ ̄ 3 ̄)づ
