Chapter 195: The Fall of the Confucian Family (I)

The bloodshed in Changshu was published in the new issue of Qiushi in the form of an official document, and at the same time, Xu Buji's speech when he was injured that day was also published, which immediately caused an uproar in public opinion around the world.

This was the first article to openly attack the Confucian family.

At the same time as the bloodshed in Changshu, in Yang Shiqi's hometown of Jiangxi, a Ming version of the Shizi Movement was also born.

Hundreds of young Shilin students rushed into the prefectures and counties with the people in their arms, beating up some elderly 'diehards', and the reason was Fang Xiaoru's appeal to 'seek truth from facts'.

"Seeking truth is the name given by His Majesty, and the meaning is taken from the four words of seeking truth from facts, since it is seeking truth from facts, should it be analyzed objectively and rationally, and today of the Ming Dynasty, is it the work of His Majesty alone?"

This article seems to be neutral, but in the end, it also clearly uses the Spring and Autumn brushwork, and in many details, Fang Xiaoru gives credit to the cabinet and the provincial political envoys, including the two levels of grain chiefs in the provinces.

At the end of the article, Fang Xiaoru ended with a sentence "Commenting on the country, not only the top; Ignorance and flattery only increase laughter. It concludes by comprehensively refuting all the arguments of the Zhengfang faction and characterizing the Zhengfang as an ignorant and shameless supremacist faction.

There is no doubt that this article had a huge impact on the thinking of the Ming Dynasty at this time, and it also played a negative role in adding fuel to the fire of the increasingly fierce controversy.

The provincial capital and county closest to the center have launched a top-down three-level debate, and the core of the discussion is that in the Ming Dynasty today, is the emperor playing the greatest role, or the officials below the first level playing the greatest role in local management?

Fortunately, the Ming Dynasty is still in the era of the founding of the country, and there are no more than two emperors before and after.

One is Taizu, and the other is Zhu Yunwen, Emperor Jianwen.

And there is no doubt that the merits of these two emperors are enough to be touted by the students of the right side.

Under the leadership of Hu Guang, Jiangxi scholars stated the various exploits of Emperor Taizu Gao and Zhu Yunwen since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and were speechless to refute the opponents.

Hu Guang raised his arms high: "Without Taizu, our Han people are still slaves of the country." Without Your Majesty today, how can we be fortunate enough to see the great world of this time? The grassland in the north is extremely poor, and the sea frontier is boundless in the south. Isn't it rare that this great achievement was not pioneered by His Majesty? How did it come to be a credit to their group of shameless factions?

Do these shameless factions think that inciting some officials and ignorant sour Confucians can tamper with history and steal miraculous achievements? No way! We are not blind, and neither are the people of the world. is this group of shameless factions, tracing back to the top, their ancestors were all officials in the tyrannical period, and they were traitors who oppressed our low-level people! It was Taizu's Northern Expedition, and when they saw that our Han people were about to repeat their clothes, they surrendered again and continued to enjoy their wealth and prosperity.

We should not have mercy on this group of people, since they have betrayed the nation, they should be destroyed and expelled from my Ming Dynasty!

Down with the shameless faction, down with Fang Xiaoru! ”

Hu Guang's remarks and the Jiangxi Scholars Movement were known as the 'Renwu Incident' in the history of the Qing Dynasty, which completely opened the prelude to the vigorous ideological impact of the Ming Jianwen in the past four years.

Under the instigation of Hu Guang, the students in Jiangxi swept half of Jiangxi within dozens of days, and countless old scholars and scholars who supported Fang Xiaoru's theory of language were overthrown.

The direction of the wind in Qiushi Bao also began to gradually shift to the positive direction, and more and more remarks by Xu Buji, Hu Guang and others were frequently published in the newspaper, and opposing remarks such as Fang Xiaoru began to become scarce under the deliberate control of the General Political Department.

This discovery made the students even more excited and excited.

They are no longer satisfied with the superiority of public opinion.

They want to destroy all the opposition!

In Shaoxing Mansion, an article signed by Li Rui was born at the right time.

In the article, the old bottom of Confucianism was almost cut upside down, and finally a torture that hit the soul of the reactionaries was issued: "Which dynasty are you counting as Confucian students!" ”

"In order to be very different from this group of shameless opposition, we, the students who support His Majesty the Emperor, should stand on their own, that they are rotten and should be destroyed, and that the opposition to destruction should be the new life.

Therefore, we should establish the doctrine of Neo-Confucianism, and the first program of our Neo-Confucianism is to unswervingly create a greater and magnificent era for our Ming Dynasty under the command of His Majesty the Emperor! ”

Confucian scholars?

The situation in the world that was still restless was quiet for a while with this article, and just when Zhu Yunwen thought that he was in a bit of a hurry and should not be in such a hurry to let this kind of article come out, greater enthusiasm erupted from Jiangxi, Zhejiang and Nanzhili.

"Down with the opposition, down with the old Confucianism!"

They don't know what Neo-Confucianism is, and Neo-Confucianism hasn't even built a framework so far, it's just a few empty slogans and a lot of nonsense, but this does not prevent them from pouring into the arms of the nascent doctrine of Neo-Confucianism at this time.

The reason is still a sharp word!

As long as the existing officials of the imperial court are criticized as the old Confucian party, then on the day when the old Confucianism is overthrown, these officials who are characterized as the old Confucian party will be ruthlessly swept into the garbage heap of history!

With so many vacant positions, don't they naturally belong to the victorious Neo-Confucian Party?

As for how to govern when they sit in that position in the future, who is going to worry about the future?

Occupy the pit first, is the top priority!

"Good! All right! ”

After Zhu Yunwen in Nanjing City found out, he happily drank several large cups of wine that night.

"It's time to get ready to wrap up!"

Zhu Yunwen's face was red and his ears were red, and he was full of alcohol, but his spirit was surprisingly high-pitched.

"Pass on Zhu Xianyu and Yang Wen."

Who is his Zhu Yunwen's nail in Shandong?

It is the current King of Qi, the original Qi Shizi and Kong Xifan's high-footed Zhu Xianyan!

Back then, before Emperor Taizu was critically ill, he summoned all the princes and Nanjing, with the purpose of keeping them as protons, ensuring Zhu Yunwen's accession to the throne and protecting Zhu Yunwen's throne.

This is also the reason why when Zhu Yunwen's soul came through, he was once wrong in the face of Zhu Gaochi's visit.

And during the time that this group of princes stayed in Nanjing, when they learned that Zhu Xianhong was a student of Kong Xifan, Taizu had already rebelled against Zhu Xianyan!

It is inappropriate to say that the strategy is against the law, because in front of Taizu, everyone should be an unswerving imperial party, not a private party.

Zhu Xianhui sold his father without hesitation.

After Zhu Yunwen cut off Zhu Di's Yanwang Domain, he let go of the princes to return to the domain, and Zhu Yunwen had already told Zhu Xianhui at that time.

"You can regret it, but I still have a way to deal with it, maybe it will be a lot of trouble, but you can't afford to cause me trouble, you can also betray me, but you can't afford the consequences of betraying me!"

That year, even Zhu Di was cut off, these relatives of the same clan, which of Zhu Yunwen's little brothers dared to touch the tiger's beard, they were all frightened and obedient and honest, this Zhu Xianhui naturally did not have the courage to resist, and returned to Shandong honestly, and he has been his loyal eyeliner Zhu Yunwen all these years.

He is the new King of Qi, and the Kong family's killing of laborers can't be hidden from him, and Kong Xifan has no intention of hiding this student of his own at all.

It's as if he never hid it from Zhu Rong.

He always thought that the entanglement between the Qi Wangfu and the Kong family was so deep that when he saw the light, everyone would have to die, and the Qi Wangfu would not dare to betray him.

He thought too much.

Zhu Xianhui sold the Kong family cleanly.

"I will give your father a decent death, although he is not well buried, and his spirit card is destined not to enter the ancestral hall, but his name I will not change the genealogy."

This is Zhu Yunwen's promise, Zhu Yunwen also did it, Zhu Yunwen's death, the responsibility was taken over by Zhu Yunwen, the emperor, and he took it down.

"You didn't betray your father, because it was your father who betrayed your grandfather first."

Zhu Yunwen put his hand on Zhu Xianyi's head, and said quietly: "You have to remember that this world was fought by grandpa, without grandpa, there would be no Zhu Mingxia, and no one can betray grandpa." ”

And Yang Wen, the Marquis of Hanshan, who has been in the edict for a few months, is white and fat, and he was released from prison with Yang Pu, the champion prince.

"The official is reinstated, the marquis of Hanshan is reinstated, and the old general can go to Shandong with peace of mind."

Zhu Yunwen held the fist Yang Wen was holding with both hands, and said in a deep voice: "Surround Qufu for me, no one is allowed to run away!" ”

Yang Wenyi lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the minister will live up to his kindness!" ”

When he turned around and left the Jinshen Palace, Zhu Yunwen laughed heartily.

The Kong family, it's gone!
