Wanli's sentence "no one" undoubtedly slapped the ministers in the face twice.

No one had a lucky miss.

This immediately caused public outrage.

Aren't we human?

The purpose of their coming here today is to impeach Guo Dan's remarks, which are really not aimed at Guo Dan as a person, the key is that Guo Dan's remarks involve the foundation of Confucian governance.

However, Wanli still wants to fight back, how can they be willing to give up.

Yang Mingshen immediately retorted: "The king is not holy, the etiquette is declining, and the law is chaotic; If the minister does not govern, his country is in danger. The king cannot cultivate virtue and administration, and the minister has no fear; The minister lost his respectful salute and became contemptuous. If you don't obey the king's orders, you don't respect the court when you are far away.

The ministers urged His Majesty to cultivate virtue and administration, what is wrong? ”

Shen Shixing also said: "The world is in chaos, and it is for one person." If the monarch is benevolent and cultivates virtue, the world will prosper, and if the monarch loses virtue, the world will die. ”

Wang Jiaping, Wang Xijue, Xu Guo and other ministers also stood up one after another to defend the Confucian idea of governing the country with virtue and benevolence.

In fact, they are very right, this premise is that "the world is in chaos, in one person", this person is not benevolent, will inevitably cause chaos in the world.

Countless examples have proven this.

Wanli sneered at this and hated it.

What annoys him the most is that these ministers chatter in his ears every day, and they have to talk a little bit about getting dressed, and one Zhang Juzheng walks away, and as a result, tens of millions of Zhang Juzheng stand up.

Who can stand this.

The fat house is the most unbearable verbosity.

This was also the main purpose of his convening of this meeting, because Guo Dan provided him with a very favorable theory, which he wanted to reverse this phenomenon in the court.

After they finished their long discussion, Wanli said unhurriedly: "You are all right, I deeply agree with this, but it is not comprehensive enough. And Guo Dan's words are obviously more comprehensive and more reasonable than what you said. Whether it is a monarch or a minister, this cultivation of virtue is the most basic, if you can't even do this, then what is there to talk about making great efforts, and the world will rise and fall.

The fact that you are standing here should be proof that you are both people of virtue and ability, but this is not the case. ”

As he spoke, he suddenly shouted, "Bring it up." ”

I saw a lot of guards carrying boxes of music folded up.

In a short time, the entire hall was piled up.

The ministers looked sideways and thought, what is this for?

Wanli pointed his hand downward, "This is every piece of music you have played since I became a pro-government." In the first two years of my pro-government, you mainly impeached Zhang Juzheng and abolished the new law, and in the next few years, it was all around the crown prince and Guo Dan. Those who really put forward governance policies, even if they are right or wrong, account for only 10%.

Cultivating virtue is the foundation of governing the country, but if you want the world to prosper, you still need to govern. Are there only a few virtuous people in the world? I don't think so, the reason why you can stand here is because of your ability to govern the country, and your duty is to assist me in governing the world, not to assist me in cultivating virtue. ”

Shen Shixing and the others were all embarrassed.

They didn't expect that Wanli would also do this kind of perverted statistics.

Isn't this a trick that Guo Dan is good at?

This is really what Wanli learned from Guo Dan, and he is also analyzing why Guo Dan can repeatedly win by surprise, the reason is that Guo Dan always uses data to talk about things, because reasoning can't talk about them, let's put the data, I can choose the data that is beneficial to me, you... Do you understand the data?

Seeing Wanli sigh again: "Since I became in power, I have not done anything immoral, but all the things I have done in the past few years are really very few, although the teacher is at fault, but what he has done in one year is far better than what I have done in a few years, which makes me feel ashamed!" ”

"The ministers are guilty."

Wang Jiaping took the lead in kneeling.

Wanli put the facts in front of them, and he himself felt as if he had been in the cabinet for so long and had not done anything.

Therefore, when Wanli said this, he immediately agreed very much.

In fact, the fact is also the same, in the past few years of Wanli's pro-government, he really hasn't done anything out of the ordinary, and he is an emperor who is quite dedicated, and it will be the future in the future, but he can't make any merits.

Monarchs and ministers are messing around.

Wanli himself is also very depressed, he really wants to get out of the shadow of Zhang Juzheng, you have to prove that Zhang Juzheng is wrong, whipping the corpse can't explain the problem, you have to come up with the right, Li Shimin's Xuanwumen change is a Confucian shame, but people finally get it right, prove that they are the destiny of heaven, you can't take the right thing, why do you say that Zhang Juzheng is wrong.

In fact, it's just a mouthpiece.

And the mouth cannon is human nature, saying that others are always the head of the way, this is not good, that is not good, but the problem is that when you sit in this position, you can't do anything better than others.

History has proved that even if Zhang Juzheng is greedy for money and lustful, even if Zhang Juzheng is stubborn and self-serving, etc...... He is also right, because no one does a better job than him, and whether he is good or not depends on his peers.

Even if I was a useless piece of scrap metal, and we were surrounded by a pile of plastic, I must have been the first to pick it up.

Wang Jiaping knelt down, and many ministers also knelt down one after another.

But Yang Ming argued to himself: "Your Majesty, this inaction does not mean that there is no ...... to be cured!" ”

Wanli immediately said: "What the Qing family said is good, this inaction does not mean inaction, but the problems mentioned in the prelude a few years ago have not been solved now, and the treasury tax revenue is decreasing year by year, where is this governance?" The words of the saints are not used to conceal your incompetence.

Guo Dan said well, the way of self-cultivation should have been completed before you entered the court, if you can't achieve self-cultivation, how can you govern the country, how can you level the world? Naturally, you can't enter the court as an official, however, you are putting the cart before the horse, using the way of self-cultivation to govern the country and level the world, which is contrary to the words of the sage, the world is prosperous, where to start? ”

You quote scriptures from me, and I'll tell you the data.

No matter how much you can argue, you can't deny the facts, the fact is that since Zhang Juzheng's death, the treasury revenue has been decreasing year by year, and the fact is that no problems have been solved.

Fang Fengshi waited for ministers with a conscience, and their faces were red.

"It's a pity!"

Wanli sighed: "It's a pity that the one who knows me best is a humble little businessman. Alas......! ”

As he spoke, he suddenly raised his hand to take off the crown.

The ministers were shocked.

When the dynasty took the crown, are you going to abdicate and make way for the virtuous?

You've had a lot of fun.

"This is all the sins of the ministers, and the crimes of the ministers should be punished, Your Majesty must not be presumptuous."

"Your Majesty, you can't help it!"

Zhang Cheng was so anxious that he was about to rush up.

The atmosphere suddenly became very tense.

Wanli stopped Zhang Cheng with his eyes, then took off the crown, put it on the table, and brought a gold wire mesh scarf.

"Li Gui."

"The slave is here."

"Send this crown to the spiritual throne of the ancestors and fathers." Wanli Road.

"Your Majesty, this... Why is that? Shen Shixing tilted his head, looking confused.

Wanli said loudly: "What is virtue, the world is prosperous, the people are rich, that is virtue, only the world is prosperous, this virtue will wear on my head, otherwise, it is just to cover your ears and steal the bell, self-deception." In ancient times, there was a king of Yue Gou to practice lying on the salary and taste the gall, and now I will follow the example of the ancients and go to the crown to rule, if the world is not prosperous, I will never take this crown. ”

It's really a gentleman's style.

Wang Jiaping's eyes were suddenly moved, and he could serve such a Ming Jun, what more could he ask for, and shouted: "Your Majesty Shengming." ”

"Your Majesty."

The ministers shouted in unison.

Although this is against etiquette, but if you don't call it, you can't do it, go to the crown and try to rule, listen to it, how domineering it is!

But in fact, the purpose of the fat house is very simple, that is, to protect your neck, because this crown is too heavy, and it hurts to catch your neck, and it is inconvenient to move!

At the same time, Guo Dan, who was far away in Kaifeng Mansion, was also negotiating with Su Xu.

Compared with the first negotiation, this time the two sides already know the roots, and it is also more substantive.

"Guo Dan, the old man still has to persuade you again, the academy will only drag you down, there is a way, if you say too much, you will lose!"

Seeing that Guo Dan resolutely refused to close Yinuo Academy, Su Xu couldn't help but say bitterly.

Guo Dan knew that the more he refused, the more determined he would be to cooperate with him, and said: "Thank you for the kind words of the scholar, but this person is in the rivers and lakes, and he can't help himself, even if you all leave, Yinuo Academy can't be closed, after all, this academy is for Your Majesty to cultivate talents." ”

Looks like this kid has noticed something! Su Xu said secretly, but this scene still had to be done, so he pretended to sigh in disappointment.

Guo Dan said again: "Scholar, just talk about things, I also think that things have not progressed to the point of life and death, if we can cooperate, it will be a win-win situation, I don't know how the scholar thinks about it?" ”

Su Xu was silent for a while, and said, "But just based on your remarks, it is difficult to show your sincerity!" ”

Guo Dan hurriedly said: "Then I don't know how to show my sincerity?" ”

Su Xu said: "The old man hopes that you can allow other businessmen to come here to set up printing workshops and paper workshops, and there can be no restrictions. ”

Guo Dan was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "It seems that it has always been not me who prevented other businessmen from coming here to do business, but your student Huang Yushi. ”

Su Xu said, "You don't have to worry about this. ”

Guo Dan groaned for a moment, and then understood the old fox's intentions.

Its purpose is to take the lead, because in academics and education, Su Xu is not afraid of Guo Dan, but in this business, Su Xu is quite jealous of Guo Dan, and he can't tolerate Guo Dan controlling all educational resources.

It's too much of a threat to him.

This time, Guo Dan was in a good mood and helped them print newspapers and periodicals, and he could not let them print them in the future, so they would be dumb at that time.

Moreover, education has to be continuously invested, and the results cannot be immediate, and he must also serve those funders, so that they can come here to make money, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Guo Dan wanted to monopolize this profit, but as Su Xu said, he couldn't ask for everything, he always scored a piece of the pie, and said with a smile: "I don't care, I like competition very much, competition can progress, but this business is a sale, and a transaction is not a charity, you can come here to build a printing workshop, but whether you can make money depends on your ability." ”

Su Xu nodded and said, "Of course. ”

Although he is not a businessman, he also sees the profits in it, so many academies, how many books have to be printed, and they have the advantage of content and connections, as long as they are willing to spend money, they can also hire good craftsmen, he thinks that in this regard, they can compete with Guo Dan.

Guo Dan said again: "Now that there is sincerity, I don't know how we should cooperate?" ”

Su Xu said: "Now is not the time, when the time is ripe, we can start working together." ”

Guo Dan was curious: "The time is ripe?" ”

Su Xu stroked his beard and smiled: "As long as you retreat first, this time will naturally come." ”

Retreating? Guo Dan frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then understood.

Now that there is unity, Su Xu does not dare to risk the disapproval of the world, and the reason is because they have Guo Dan, a common enemy, if Guo Dan retreats and does not pose much threat to everyone, then they will naturally fight with each other, and then Su Xu can take advantage of the situation to cooperate with them.
