Chapter 186: Arguments

At this time, Yun Ruhong angrily scolded nonsense: "The Ministry of Rites is still nonsense, tell me now, why can't the ancestors' regulations be changed?" Are all your current rules set by your ancestors, or have they been changed by later generations? ”

At this time, the Ministry of Rites was talking nonsense, like a melon egg beaten by frost, lowered his head, and there was no more wilting word. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Yun Ruhong didn't let it, and said: "The Ministry of Rites is still nonsense, now you are given two choices, one is to accompany the king to the funeral, and the other is to be demoted from your second rank to a commoner if you don't want to be buried together, you can choose one?" ”

The Ministry of Rites still didn't say a word, as if it had a seal on its mouth. It was also stamped with the seal of the Ministry of Rites.

"Well, now the Ministry of Rites Shangshu didn't say a word, but agreed to accompany the funeral, then he is counted as one, and the other officials are lined up from top to bottom."

At this time, can the ministers still not understand what the intentions of the two national divisions are? Advance as retreat, enter the house, stab you with your spear, and use radical to fight across the world!

A minister said: "The world has changed over time, and it is appropriate to change the law!" Customs have to change with the times, and as for all the rules of the ancestors, most of them have changed now. I very much agree with what Yun Guoshi said that this unreasonable and even cruel funeral system should be abolished! ”

Yun Ruhong said sharply: "No, it can't be abolished, just do what I just said, the queen, princess, eunuchs and guards, and all officials above the third rank will be buried together!" ”

For a moment the people were silent.

Of course, Ren Guoshi knew that Yun Ruhong didn't mean this, so he said: "Ruhong, let them talk about it!" ”

Yun Ruhong said hatefully: "Some people don't have a little humanity, let others die, they are very happy, the reason is very sufficient, let them die, it will not work, the Ministry of Rites is nonsense, aren't you loyal to the king?" Why don't you speak? If it's your turn, you can't do it, if you are fate, others are not? You hypocrite! ”

Of course, many people know that Yun Ruhong is not letting these people be buried together, this is a practice of entering the house, in your words, to provoke further and introduce a conclusion that no one can accept. In fact, it is still the way to control the people of others. If you let someone else die, then you will die first.

One said that it should be abolished, and the others immediately followed suit and said that it should be abolished. At this point, even those who said they could not abolish it agreed to abolish it. It seems that they are still afraid of death.

"Well, abolish the funeral system! Others are handled according to the old system! "Ren Guoshi has made a decision.

The second is the question of heirs.

The king's queen gave birth to three sons, and none of them were good? The ministers decided only around three people who would succeed the king. There are those who protect the eldest son, those who protect the second son, those who protect the third son, and those who do not protect anyone, so that four factions are formed, and no one is silent. The other three factions each had their own reasoning, debated, noisy, and quarreled.

As for the second thing, Ren Guoshi told Yun Ruhong about the situation just now.

Yun Ruhong asked: "Ladies and gentlemen, the king has twenty-three children, why do you only quarrel over three people?" Can anyone give me a reason? ”

This was originally a matter of the Ministry of Rites, but just now the Ministry of Rites Shangshu had just eaten the training noodles, and he didn't dare to say it for a while. There was silence for a moment.

But after all, this is a matter under the control of the Ministry of Rites, and when the Ministry of Rites is still talking nonsense, there is no one to say, so he has to bite the bullet and say: "The king has twenty-three children, but only three are born to the queen, so it is necessary to choose one of the three to conform to the ancestral teachings." ”

Yun Ruhong said: "So that's the case? Then please ask the Ministry of Rites. Do we choose the children of the king or the children of the queen? Which of the ancestral teachings stipulates that only children who are not queens can inherit the throne? ”

"Of course, we choose the king's son, although the ancestral training does not stipulate that it must be the queen's son, but it has always been like this, it is customary, and now we naturally have to choose the queen's son." Of course, the Ministry of Rites replied.

At this time, Yun Ruhong seemed to be humble and said: "I don't understand the right of inheritance, but there is no shortage of people in history who let their brothers inherit the throne, and there are also those who let their grandsons inherit the throne?" It seems that these kings also have sons, what is the matter? ”

"This is their son is not enough to inherit the throne, so ......" Hu Yan said this, he felt a little wrong, it seemed that he fell into Yun Ruhong's calculations again. So he stopped.

Yun Ruhong knew what she meant, but she still asked: "May I ask the Ministry of Rites again, do we choose the king, do we choose the capable person to govern our country well, or choose a mediocre person to rot our country?" ”

"Of course, it is to choose the ...... that can govern the country." When the Ministry of Rites replied this, he was already sweating on his head. The last thing almost cost a life, this time you must be cautious in your words and deeds.

"Then you say that these three mediocre talents can only eat, drink and have fun, which one is the power to govern the country?" Although Yun Ruhong's tone was still peaceful, the question was extremely harsh.

"This, this, but the queen only has these three sons!" The Ministry of Rites couldn't answer, so he could only stutter and barely cope.

"But why did the previous dynasty choose brothers and advanced grandchildren?"

"This, this ......" the Ministry of Rites was also speechless.

Yun Ruhong said sharply at this time: "You group of corrupt Confucians, no matter what you do, you don't put the people of the country first, and you engage in some stereotypes and precepts every day to restrict talented people, what does the country want you to do?"

"Your focus is either cruel or wrong, how can you choose a good king who can govern the country well and love his people like a son? What is the convention? Why is the ancestral training coming again? Could it be that the conventional achievements are correct, and are the words of the ancestors suitable for future generations?

"The times are advancing, the world is developing, and some stereotypes and bad habits will be abolished. In the new era, it is necessary to establish a new order and new rules. Only by not being the old can the old be abolished and the new can be established.

"As the old saying goes: 'If you don't plug it, you can't do it, you can't do it'. And he said, 'If you don't go to the past, you won't repair the present.' Because the ancient law is behind the times, and the cultivation of the present is plugged in the potential'.

"And our focus is on the prosperity of the country and the strength of the people. If you want the country to be rich and the people strong, you must choose a king who is resourceful, capable, and governs the country well. And you always hold on to the past, how about the ancestral teachings? You must know that what the ancestors said and what was stipulated can only be suitable for his time, and some are not even suitable for his time, like a funeral, he himself is wrong! It's cruelty in itself!

"Besides, now that times are different and people are different, why do we have to keep this old precept? You never think about the security of the country, never think about the interests of the people, you only think of the rules and teachings of the ancestors, in fact, you only think of yourself. How can you choose a good heir? Ministry of Rites, tell me, when you want to accompany the funeral system, have you thought about the living? When you choose the king, do you think of the country, of the people? ”

Yun Ruhong is so loud, everyone can see from Yun Ruhong's beautiful eyes that Yun Ruhong is angry again, and can see the resentment towards the Ministry of Rites, of course the Ministry of Rites feels it, how dare he reply. The others didn't dare to say anything, and for a while, there was no sound in the entire court.

At this time, Yun Ruhong said again: "We are officials of the state, we are officials of the people, not officials of one family, so no matter what we do, we must start from the interests of the country and the people." The philosopher has long said a wise saying: the people are precious, the monarch is light, and the community is secondary. We should put the people first, then the state, and then the king, and the king is the leader of a country, and he should also be responsible for the country and the people. It's not about oppressing the people from above. It's not that after death, you have to mutilate the living. Therefore, when we choose a king, we must choose a person who is virtuous, capable, has both ability and political integrity, and is both civil and military. You have to be able to serve the country and the people. Therefore I propose that among the twenty-three children of the king, which one of the two children is born to a woman, whether male or female, if he is of good character and able, which one shall we choose? ”

After Yun Ruhong made this point of view clear, they were all silent for a while, and those who had been silent all spoke at this time, and they all agreed with Yun Ruhong's statement. The quarrelling tripartite also felt that the person they were holding was indeed incapable of being the king, especially with the previous incident about the funeral, they were indeed afraid of Yun Ruhong. Therefore, in the end, everyone agreed with Yun Ruhong's opinion. It was then decided to choose the best of the king's twenty-three children to be king.

In the end, Ren Guoshi said: "After discussing two things, everyone should know Yun Guoshi's personality and focus, she thinks about the people everywhere and thinks about the society. I hope that all of us will always think of the people. If our officials can think about the people, then why is our country not strong, and why is our people not rich? ”

For the successor of the king, in the end, it was proposed by Ren Guoshi that Yun Ruhong live in the palace to examine the king's twenty-three princes and princesses. Then decide who the king will be.

Yun Ruhong discussed the examination conditions with Ren Guoshi. The first is the mind, the third is the intelligence, and the third is the cultivation and potential.

Yun Ruhong assessed all twenty-three people, but none of them could afford the throne of the king, and Yun Ruhong felt helpless for a while. What should I do?

If according to Yun Ruhong's thoughts, she really wants to choose those capable people to be kings, but she can't pass the secular level at all, and she chooses to choose regardless of her concubines, which is already deviant and not tolerated by many people, but her cultivation is high, and she has the support of the old national teacher, and others are talking about it behind their backs, but they don't dare to say one, one, two, two or two in person.

Even if it is said behind the back, it is all gold, and the mosquitoes have become thunder, if it is not for the original king, it would be strange if she was not eaten!
