The World (11)

Deng Guangjian was very excited to read it, but Chen Yizhong was very dissatisfied with it.

As a learned Confucian, he could hear that almost all of the content of the first chapter of the Covenant was from the Confucian classics, and many of the words were even the original words of some of the great Confucians of his predecessors. But when the participants of the convention were combined in this way, the concept expressed completely changed.

This is not Confucianism, at best, it is hanging the skin of Confucianism, but in his bones he is making a name for Wen Tianxiang's new policy. Chen Yi came to such a conclusion in the center. But through the conflict with Deng Guangjian, at this moment he also understood that what he could do was very limited, military power, popular support, external support and even maybe royal support were all on Wen Tianxiang's side, and there was no one inside the Great Song Dynasty who could compete with Wen Tianxiang.

"Maybe, I really shouldn't have come back." Chen Yizhong thought gloomily. The next moment, he remembered such a question, what would he do if he was in Wen Tianxiang's position?

"I would never have held such a conference and caused trouble for myself. It's like digging a hole and jumping down by yourself. Thinking about the rumors in the market that Wen Tianxiang had gone crazy after the Battle of the Empty Pit, Chen Yizhong smiled, "Maybe the rumors are indeed true, in this chaotic world, maybe only a madman can do something."

Thinking like this, he slowly walked away, completely leaving out of his mind the palace at sunset, his excited colleagues, and Deng Guangjian, who had fallen into deep thought after reading the first article of the covenant.

At this moment, Quanzhou City is also excited. Applauding, protesting, and resentful, they gathered in the teahouse and wine shop, listening to the discussion of others, and at the same time eagerly expressed their opinions.

The Great Song Dynasty was originally more tolerant of speech, and with the tolerant atmosphere deliberately cultivated by the Fujian Metropolitan Governor's Office in the past two years, everyone had no worries about settling accounts after the autumn. It's just that the article that no force is allowed is posted high in the most conspicuous place of the restaurant, replacing the four words "Mo Tan Guo is" in previous dynasties, which makes people feel very eye-catching.

"Those rotten people should rush up and smoke them with the soles of their shoes. Knock out their teeth, and see what other fangs they can get! In the midst of a standing crowd drinking, a man with a scar on his face yelled.

"Tao Laosan, forget it. At the venue, there was no need to do anything, and Chen Hangyan had already been taken out. You really have that heart, tomorrow you will ambush at the entrance of the venue, secretly catch a man in a long shirt and beat him violently, and our brothers will invite you to drink for a month! A young man in a short shirt with a lot of flesh on his arm said to him.

There was a chorus of echo in the crowd, urging Tao Laosan to make a move when it was time to do it. In this group, except for Tao Laosan, a soldier who maintained order at the venue, the others were coolie workers in the city's emerging industries. After everyone got off work, there was nothing to be happy and bored, so they had to rely on drinking this kind of two bowls of yellow soup for a big man to mix time.

It stands to reason that the Confucian scholars who attended the meeting did not have any specific evil deeds that offended them. But when you think about seeing the group of people who usually drink in the private seat being beaten, everyone's hearts will be inexplicably excited.

"You know, I said they should be pumped, but they weren't necessarily smoked. This is just like what Old Master Wang said today, yes, his heart can be killed, yes, his heart can be killed. Do you understand the word that their hearts can be killed, that is, with their little unsightly minds, it is not too much to kill! Tao Laosan was so crowded that he couldn't get off the stage, looked at the clean sand window on the second floor, and said loudly like a demonstration.

"It's his heart that can be punished!" A coolie who had attended night school for a few days interjected.

"Punishment and killing are the same, killing and killing, killing is punishment, punishment is killing." Tao Laosan said with a red face. "But Prime Minister Wen said that anyone who is guilty must be punished by law. So I don't hit them, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't! ”

"You just blow it, you are the prime minister when you open and close your mouth, since you are loyal to the prime minister, how can it be stipulated by the law conference, the world is still the son of the Zhao family!" The people around saw Tao Laosan shouting for a long time and then shrank back, and laughed unceremoniously.

This is the most dissatisfying part of everyone. This afternoon, article 2 of the provisional statute was also endorsed by two-thirds of the participants. It is said that the Great Song Dynasty ruled the country for 300 years, although there are shortcomings, but it treats scholars and doctors well, pays taxes lightly, and has made more merit than demerits in the past 300 years. Therefore, everyone believes that it should be the son of the Zhao family who exercises the power of the monarch. From today onwards, the Fujian Metropolitan Governor's Mansion will be upgraded to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion of the world's soldiers and horses, and the heroes of the world should be under the leadership of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion to expel the Tartars and fight the king's affairs. When the war was over, the Metropolitan Governor had to return the rules of authority to the imperial court. The imperial court convened a new covenant meeting to decide on the new dynasty system.

"This?" Tao Laosan was embarrassed, he was just a gang leader under Chen Hangyan, and he was not qualified to vote or speak. But his mind represented the thoughts of the vast majority of the soldiers in the army.

"Say, hehe, don't dare to say it. If I were you, I would force those deputies with a knife and swallow back the second half of the sentence of the ......" coaxing person. Everyone stopped shouting, and some words could only be said in their hearts, not in their mouths.

"What do you know, the Son of Heaven belongs to the Son of Heaven, and the government returns to the government!" Tao Laosan argued unconvincedly, "Isn't there a lot of detailed rules to say in the second article of the covenant, and there are many things that the Son of Heaven can't do!" ”

"Hehe, fool people. Which emperor is not a man of his word, otherwise what would the emperor do! The people around him followed, and the rude voice came from downstairs to upstairs.

"These ruffians!" The drinkers in the upstairs seats were not satisfied, and stood up and closed the windows with all their might, keeping out the noise of the outside world.

"Why should Brother Zhao be as knowledgeable as those rough people, we will at least cut off the thoughts of literary thieves today, so that he will not be able to touch the yellow robe in his life!" Opposite the scolder, a man with a few fine hairs on his chin and a somewhat dirty face persuaded.

"Brother Zhu Xiu put gold on his face, how much royal dignity has been damaged by this article today, and how much has the Gang Chang Etiquette Law been corrupted. My generation is incompetent, and I am ashamed of my ancestors and ancestors! Beside the filthy man, a man with a sad face sighed.

"Yes, if it were back then, just by the words of these people downstairs, they could have been punished for the crime of disrespecting the doctor. Hey, right now, what is equal, let Bai Ding and the reader be on an equal footing. Alas, Sven sweeps the floor, Sven sweeps the floor! Zhao surnamed Rusheng sat down slowly, sighing while drinking.

"Brother Zhao, Brother Dong Mo sighed, didn't we stipulate that after the expulsion of the Tartars, we will hold a conference to focus on the country. At that time, when the scholars of the north and the south gathered, they did not believe in those rough people. Now that the Tartars are eyeing the side, we have to make peace with them, in the future, as long as the Tartars are driven away, the days will be long! The dirty man surnamed Zhu was not discouraged, gritted his teeth and analyzed.

"I'm afraid that those white dings will live their minds from now on, and once the hearts of the people are alive, it will be difficult to accept them. Didn't you hear the people downstairs shouting, we have made so many concessions, and they are not satisfied. The sorrowful guest surnamed Dong shook his head and said, "And the detailed rules of the covenant stipulate that no one can infringe on the private property of the people." Anyone who commits a crime must have clear evidence, and no punishment or leniency may be arbitrarily increased at the discretion of the court. The imperial court was also not allowed to raise taxes at will. With these provisions, those people still don't their tails to the sky? Will listen to me again! Besides, it is not easy to revise the covenant law, we can't get two-thirds of us to follow Lord Lu at the moment, how can we guarantee that we can get together two-thirds of the people to revise the covenant law in the future? ”

"That's not necessarily, this time we have a short experience, and we are a thief!" The dirty man surnamed Zhu looked around, lowered his voice and said: "You think, this time the participants, the soldiers, profiteers, and low-end petty officials account for the majority, so naturally we can't have the upper hand." Next time, as long as our ideas have a majority among the delegates, we can turn the situation around! ”

"I'm just afraid, others will also think about it here......" Zhao's eyes lit up, and then dimmed again.

"Therefore, the key is tomorrow, tomorrow we will discuss the issue of representation and official selection, let's be careful, and don't let the thieves fool the past!" The dirty man surnamed Zhu gritted his teeth and said.

Zhao and Dong stopped talking, and saw a rising moon through the hustle and bustle behind the screen window. Tomorrow will be the eighth day of August, and in a few days it will be August 15th. It was the brightest moonlit day of the year, and I wonder how many different stories there will be under the same full moon.

The moon rises in the sea, and the end of the world is at this time. At this moment, countless pairs of eyes are looking forward to tomorrow.

"I don't know what the mess will be tomorrow!" Fujian appeased the embassy, and the exhausted Chen Longfu sighed with a thump on his back.

"Where else can it be messed up, Lord Lu has kept the court and the emperor, and Lord Du has kept power for Lord Wen. The heroes were guaranteed safety, the merchants kept their private property, and even the common people who farmed the land were shouted a few words on their behalf by soldiers from peasant families. Everyone takes what they need, and they all share what they should share, and what are you complaining about! Chen Longfu's concubine Xie said with a smile, "If you want me to see, there is such a smart person as Prime Minister Wen in the world, don't you want power, okay, it's better to be clear than to stumble in secret and sprinkle sweat medicine!" ”

After Chen Longfu's wife was captured by Li Heng in the Battle of Gannan, she was sold to no one. This concubine was married after he arrived in Quanzhou, a small businessman, and a concubine. Although he does not have the status of a wife, Chen Longfu only married one concubine, and the age difference between the two is nearly thirty years, so he is very favored, and he dares to say anything in front of Chen Longfu.

"You don't understand, you don't understand, come here, knock me up" Chen Longfu pointed to his lower back and said, only two treaties were passed in more than 20 days, and he was so tired that he just wanted to vomit blood. "This, this is it! With a light hand, I can't hold back! ”

"What don't you understand, our merchants have words, and it is not worth losing money if you make money. No matter how fierce the bargaining is, it's not for the sake of a deal. Look at it, the further they go, the more fierce they fight, but the faster the deal will be made, and it won't take more than three months for the contract to be fully booked! Xie Shi seemed to have seen through the essence of the heroes in the world, and smiled and drew inferences.

"Why? Who told you that? Chen Long paused for a moment and asked curiously. Deep down, he vaguely felt that Xie's words made sense, although the Second Treaty Law took a long time, but in terms of the order at the venue and the content of the conversation with everyone, it was much more organized than when the First Treaty Law was agreed. Before you know it, some kind of fixed rule slowly begins to form among the attendees.

"No one told the concubine, it was the concubine who figured it out herself. Sir you think, they are so reluctant to let others participate in the meeting, but no one takes the initiative to leave, which shows that no one is willing to put their fate in the hands of others. Even if it is handed over to a big hero like the lord and Prime Minister Wen, it will not be successful! Xie Shi smiled, and a faint pride appeared on her fair face unconsciously, which made her more and more coquettish.

"So they will seize every opportunity, ask for a price, and pay back on the ground, but they will not make the deal dead!" Chen Longfu and his wife said in unison, looking at each other, their eyes were full of tenderness.

No one wants to leave their fate in the hands of others, even if it is the heroes they worship who hold their own destiny. Many of the people in attendance didn't realize it at the time, but they did it. Although their vision is not as long-term as Wen Tianxiang, their decision-making may not be as accurate as Wen Tianxiang alone. But they would rather compromise in the bumps, balance, and find the right direction in the midst of fumbling and mistakes, rather than close their eyes and let the hero or the emperor decide everything.

On August 15, the third year of Xiangxing, unexpectedly, Article 3 of the Provisional Covenant, on the law on the selection of officials and the promotion of delegates to the next congress, reached an agreement in just seven days.

There is no subtlety in this article, it is all real things. Therefore, before this, the leaders of all forces already had the highest goal and the bottom line of retreat in mind.

Article 3 of the Provisional Statute declares that any subsequent major change in the law of the State shall be subject to a vote of the Assembly of the Statute. In wartime, the convening power of the Covenant Assembly was vested in the Metropolitan Governor's Office. After the Northern Yuan retreated, the convening power of the Covenant Assembly belonged to the imperial court. However, no one shall convene a convention of the Covenant in the number of delegates, which shall be less than the number of the first one, and shall consist of one-quarter of the officials, one-quarter of the scholars, one-quarter of the merchants, and one-quarter of the soldiers. These people must be meritorious to the state, and they cannot be qualified as representatives just because they have written a few books and a few articles. As for the most controversial selection of officials before the meeting, the second paragraph of Article 3 of the Provisional Covenant Law stipulates that the Tang system will be restored, and from then on, the imperial examination and the election will be carried out simultaneously. The district mayor and Li Zheng, these small officials below the ninth grade, are all elected by the local people. After the expiration of the term, they can be promoted to the county and government level according to their performance in office and the support of the people. Officials at or above the county level must be served by those who have made meritorious contributions to the state, such as retired military officers, staff members of the Metropolitan Governor's Office, and officials subordinate to various ministries of the imperial court. Regardless of the descendants of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, and anyone, they can participate in the imperial examinations at all levels. Those who have obtained the qualifications of Maocai and Jinshi can enter the Metropolitan Governor's Office or various departments of the imperial court as a staff member for three years, and after three years, Jinshi will be released as a magistrate at or above the prefecture level depending on their ability. Maocai can choose to continue to be released after the entrance examination, or be released as an official based on merit.

This is an acceptable result, although there are many difficulties in operation. But the soldiers are no longer fighting the world in vain, and even if they retire from service in the future, they will have dividends to share. The Confucian scholars no longer read in vain for ten years, and compared with the Northern Yuan Dynasty's policy of not allowing southerners to participate in the imperial examination, they have also had one more step to advance. Therefore, in the eyes of everyone, this treaty law is many times better than the original election that Wen Tianxiang blindly insisted on.

In particular, Maocai can enter the curtain above the article, which makes the readers cheer loudly. There is the Song Dynasty, ten years of cold window, and there are only dozens of people who can obtain the qualification of Jinshi in each session. But Maocai's fame is as simple as catching it for many people. At present, the Great Song Dynasty and the Northern Yuan Dynasty are facing each other, and there are frequent wars, and it is easy to make meritorious contributions behind the scenes, and it is much easier to get an official because of merit, which is much wider and easier than the way out for the Jinshi.

As for the first-level officials in the district and district, the scholars originally looked down on them, so they were not willing to try their best to fight. However, the representatives who have already served as district chiefs and Lizheng are really happy to hear that they can continue to rise if they do a good job.

The third treaty law concludes by saying that becoming officials does not mean that they are more prominent than others from now on, but because they have taken the people's offerings, and they have an additional responsibility on their shoulders from now on.

At present, this responsibility is: to drive out the Tartars, restore China, establish discipline, and relieve the people.

In the future, it will be the responsibility of the state and the government to protect the equality, wealth and dignity of every person in this land.

This everyone, including the Han people in the north, also including the Khitan, Jurchen and other minority groups, and even, including the Mongolian and Semu people who are willing to stay in the land of China, the detailed rules of the covenant say: "For example, the Mongols and the Semu, although they are not of the Chinese race, but between the heaven and the earth, there are those who can know etiquette and righteousness, and who are willing to be the people of China, treat each other no different from the people of China." The people of the world are about brothers, sharing glory and disgrace, blessings and misfortunes! ”

That night, the capital government paid for inviting all the delegates to drink and admire the moon. On the Hu cake used as a dim sum, chef Sang Dabao deliberately carved the eight words "expel the Tartars and restore China" on the front and back.

These eight words ignited everyone's enthusiasm, although everyone had different opinions on governing the country, although everyone could not understand each other's ideas for the time being. But over the years, everyone has deeply felt the harm inflicted on Huaxia by the Mongols.

"Come, everyone drink this cup together, work together to expel the Tartars and restore China!" In the expensive glass, the wine brought from the sea shimmered like blood. Wen Tianxiangxiang raised his glass and said to all the delegates.

"Expelle the Tartars and restore China!" The people stood up and shouted in unison. At that moment, there was no longer prejudice and estrangement in each other's hearts, but a kind of blood that connected them closely.

The moonlight is like water, and one night, everyone is drunk, drunk in the dream of a thousand years of family and country.

According to history, there were a total of 557 delegates attending the meeting that day, and only 305 people survived to the year when the Northern Yuan Dynasty withdrew from the Central Plains.

A few years later, the Second Covenant Conference was held, and it was proposed that the Mid-Autumn Festival should be designated as the national day of the Chinese country forever. The proposal was unanimously adopted by the General Assembly.

Although, on August 15, there is still a month and a half before the first version of the "Provisional Covenant" is fully promulgated.

Although on August 15, there are still eleven years before Wen Tianxiang and others drove away the Northern Yuan Dynasty and rebuilt China.

However, those who survived such as Lu Xiufu, Chen Longfu, Du Gui, and Zhu Ziming all believed that from this day on, the country of their dreams had been established.

Because, for the first time in the history of China, the word 'equality' was written in the form of law. On that day they had already declared what they were fighting for and what kind of country they intended to build.

The reason they fought was not because of Destiny or because of luck, but because:

Those who are in the world are also the people of the world.

Alcoholic's note: "Expelling the Tartars, restoring China, Chen Gang establishing discipline, and relieving the people." It is found in Zhu Yuanzhang's Northern Expedition. Zhu Yuanzhang also has words in the text: "For example, Mongolia and Semu, although they are not of the Chinese race, but between the same heaven and earth, there are those who can know etiquette and righteousness, and are willing to be subjects, which are no different from those raised by Chinese people."
