Needless to say, Wanli certainly supports Guo Dan's statement.

Otherwise, Guo Dan would not dare to say it.

Because Guo Dan knows very well that no matter what, he must defend Wanli's interests.

But this is a very rare phenomenon.

Because generally speaking, the emperor must be the defender of the old order, and to defend the old order is to defend the emperor's own core interests.

But Wanli hated the old order very much, and he felt that he was a puppet under the old order.

Because every day he was told that he couldn't do this, that couldn't be done, and that he couldn't even be criticized for who he slept with.

Especially in the subsequent struggle over the country, he felt even more desperate, and he also saw through the essence that the ministers were actually loyal to Confucianism, not to him as an emperor.

At the beginning, Taizu formulated the eight-strand text, the purpose of which was to restrain people's thoughts, consolidate imperial power, and form a highly centralized system of the emperor, which is actually something that every emperor will do, and the emperor must control his thoughts, but Taizu seems to be a little too strong, plus the later emperors and ministers also added oil and vinegar to it, resulting in a backlash against the royal family, and now this kind of thinking has overridden the emperor, and public opinion is controlled in the hands of ministers.

As a result, although the emperor was highly centralized, he often did not have the upper hand in the confrontation with Confucianism.

In addition, these ministers are not stupid, they are the smartest people in the world, they see that those vassal kings do nothing, but they are very rich, and they are in a high position, and they get up early every day to be greedy for darkness and darkness, but this is very little.

It's that everyone feels unfair.

In that case, let's do it ourselves and have enough food and clothing.

Taizu took too much care of his own family, and at the same time was too mean to the ministers, and he even wrote the ministers' fortunes into the Emperor's ancestral teachings.

Taizu is indeed a super layman in the distribution of interests.

Therefore, when they came to Wanli, everyone began to go to extremes, on the one hand, etiquette and religion are becoming more and more strict, but on the other hand, this officialdom is very corrupt.

This led Wanli to think that the old order was too unfair to the emperor, and was very eager to break the old order and then establish a new order centered on himself.

It's funny.

The person who makes the rules thinks that the rules are unfair to them.

And Guo Dan provided him with a path, that is, capital.

Compared with Confucianism, Wanli is more willing to believe in money, because he feels that this Confucianism advocates monarchs and ministers, but in fact, Confucius is the boss, the second is Meng Shengren, and there is Cheng Zhu behind.

This person is accustomed to speaking on behalf of the saints, and this generation is substituted, and as a result, he has substituted himself for himself.

The words of a saint are more authoritative than those of an emperor.

In fact, the dispute over the national capital profoundly reflects this problem.

The sage said, "The young and the old are in order."

But the emperor didn't think so.

But the result was a complete defeat for the emperor.

In this case, coupled with Wanli's financial mentality, he chose to embrace capital.

He knew that under the old order, he couldn't play with these ministers, so he had to destroy the old order and establish a new order.

In addition, with the blessing of the aura of the first emperor of the ages, Wanli raised his hands to support this transcription.

East Pavilion.

"How can this be reasonable, how can this reason be, this kid is really getting more and more presumptuous!"

Xu Guojiang just received the news and threw it on the table, "What is he going to do, what is it called'On top of the temple, rotten wood is an official; Between His Majesty, the beasts eat Lu', who is he scolding......! ”

After his reprimand, he found that Shen Shixing and Wang Jiaping, who were seated, were silent, and couldn't help asking: "Could it be that Shen Shoufu also supports his remarks?" ”

Shen Shixing glanced at him and couldn't help sighing: "I'm not supporting, but I don't know how to oppose it, I can't tell Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you are not the first emperor of the ages, and now is not the best era, but the darkest era." ”

After a pause, he said: "There are quite a few people in the key Shilin who support Guo Dan. ”

Xu Guo was surprised: "How is this possible? ”

"But that's exactly what happened!" Shen Shixing said with emotion: "Who in the world doesn't want to witness the advent of the era of the hundred schools of thought with their own eyes, and witness the advent of the saints. ”

Wang Jiaping said: "I have also consulted some historical materials, in fact, Guo Dan is not just talking, his theory does have a certain basis, and it is not easy to refute his theory." ”

Xu Guodao: "But... But this could have a huge impact on the rule of the imperial court. ”

Shen Shixing smiled bitterly: "But it can consolidate Your Majesty's rule, once Guo Dan's theory is respected by everyone, then Your Majesty will be the first emperor of the ages." ”

The premise for Wanli to become the first emperor of the ages is that above the temple, the rotten wood is the official, and he must stand up and turn the tide.

This would indeed undermine the rule of the imperial court, but it would be very beneficial to the emperor.

Therefore, Wanli raised his hands in support, while the ministers of the DPRK and China raised their limbs to oppose it.

Guo Dan's speech caused an uproar in the DPRK and China.

They frantically impeached Guo Dan, but the interesting thing is that the recital of Guo Dan they impeached made Wanli feel that Guo Dan was not too right.

Because they impeached Guo Dan's recital, it could not be said that Guo Dan was anti-sage, anti-Confucianism, undermined social harmony, and undermined the rule of the imperial court.

And Wanli's mentality is, yes, yes, you're so right, that's what I want.

In addition, many people support Guo Dan this time, that Gu Xiancheng is a typical representative, he used to comment on current affairs and criticize the court every day, of course he felt that above the temple, rotten wood was an official.

If he is against this now, then his previous words are not all bullshit.

The sage of the court, then he will become a Diao people.

And Gu Xiancheng also represents a large group of people, these people are very disappointed in the previous imperial court, some of them are directly to Guo Dan, such as Li Zhen, and some are standing in the middle and swaying from side to side.

Gu Xian's achievements are a little uncertain.

Yinuo Academy.

At this time, Guo Dan was walking on the playground with Gu Xiancheng, basking in the warm sunshine.

"Your Excellency's previous speech is really unique, and Gu has benefited a lot, after going back, studying the literature on relevant aspects, there is indeed a certain amount of truth, but ......!"

Gu Xiancheng said with a smile: "But some of the remarks are also exaggerated. ”

Guo Dan hurriedly asked, "I still hope that Mr. Gu will teach you." ”

Gu Xiancheng said: "For example, the first emperor of the ages, this... I don't dare to agree with this, and your words are also opportunistic, so that everyone cannot debate in a fair environment. ”

This emperor of the ages will definitely make many people fearful, and it is fatal to oppose this!

Guo Dan said seriously: "I really think so, and I definitely didn't deliberately pat His Majesty's sycophants." ”

Gu Xiancheng was stunned for a moment, and said, "Really?" That Gu is willing to hear the details. ”

Guo Dan said: "Qin Shi Huang's book is the same text, the car is on the same track, the Great Wall is built, the book is burned and the Confucianism is pitted, the Han Wu Emperor deposed the hundred schools, respected Confucianism alone, and drove the Xiongnu to Mobei, all of which caused great discussion at that time, because these policies were subversive.

But this is precisely what they are competing for the capital of the first emperor through the ages, and there is a way that those who achieve great things should not be informal. But as long as the emperors can compete for the first emperor of the ages, it is impossible for those emperors with good rules, such as the second emperor of Wenjing, no one has ever included them in the competition of the first emperor of the ages.

It is because their policies have not had a far-reaching impact on the entire nation.

Today's actions of His Majesty can definitely compete with the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, our dynasty has Yongle Shengshi, there is the rule of Renxuan, and there is Hongzhi Zhongxing, but I don't think they dare to expand my Ming territory overseas, and I don't think they dare to exempt the privileges of the powerful, defy the ancestral system, and reduce the feudal kings on a large scale, so as to reduce the taxes of the people.

Of course, in the end, it is necessary to judge the success of the king, if it fails, it is the faint king, then Wang Mang is like this, the problem is that His Majesty is now continuing to succeed, Weihui Mansion, Kaifeng Mansion under the governance of Chengzu and Xiaozong, but far less than the present, without Your Majesty's wisdom and martial arts, Weihui Mansion and Kaifeng Mansion can have today's beauty? ”

Gu Xiancheng smiled and said, "But you seem to be ignoring someone." ”

Guo Dan asked, "Who?" ”

"It's you."

Gu Xiancheng smiled and said: "All this credit is inseparable from you, but you deliberately put all this credit on Your Majesty's head." ”

Guo Dan said: "It's not deliberate, but a fact, in fact, this can just prove the greatness of Your Majesty, does Mr. think that Chengzu and Xiaozong dare to contract a state capital to a tooth merchant?" Emperor Qin and Han Wu didn't dare to do this, how much courage did it take, and how much pressure did His Majesty face when he did this, but it turned out that His Majesty's decision was right, if I was born in the period of Chengzu and filial piety, I might be a humble businessman. ”

Speaking of this, he smiled at Gu Xiancheng and said: "Mr. Gu, to say something more offensive, you have not yet achieved any success, which will make your criticism pale and weak, after all, criticizing others is actually the easiest thing in the world." ”

Gu Xiancheng's expression froze when he heard this, his face was flushed, and he looked extremely embarrassed.

This sentence allowed Guo Dan to gain the initiative.

Guo Dan said: "Of course, Mr. Gu's failure to succeed is not because Mr. Gu is not ambitious, it is very likely that he has not met talents, but this still needs to be proved, and now Yinuo University is willing to give Mr. Gu a chance to prove it, and when Mr. one day, for the country, for the people, make great contributions, we can discuss this issue again." ”

Gu Xiancheng glanced at Guo Dan, and suddenly burst out laughing.

He never thought that in Guo Dan's conversation, he would be completely suppressed by the other party's momentum.

And the reason is just as Guo Dan said, Guo Dan is already a successful person, and he has not yet succeeded.

After laughing, Gu Xiancheng arched his hand and said, "Then thank you." ”

Guo smiled lightly: "No need to say thank you, if Mr. Gu does not do well in the future, I will also find someone to replace Mr. without mercy, after all, I am a businessman." ”
