After the other people present saw this scene, they probably understood what Yu Maoheng was going to do, so some of them became excited. These people are all Cui Chengxiu's people, or people who have the same thoughts as Cui Chengxiu.

There is a saying in this world called the initiator, and there is no aftermath. It means that the first person to do this has already appeared, so there must be someone who will do the same.

Recently, Cui Chengxiu's momentum has been very strong, how he rose, everyone has seen it, and naturally there are many people who want to follow him.

Even stupid people probably know Choi Chengxiu's rise. He started to rise from criticizing the Donglin Party, and naturally there are people to learn, which is also the reason why Cui Chengxiu has been able to gather a large number of people for such a long time, and everyone follows him.

Now that Yu Maoheng is also gone, it means that a greater opportunity is coming.

Of course, some people don't look good and think it's inappropriate. Some people think that the Donglin Party is not guilty of this. Some people feel that the party struggle in the imperial court has affected the normal order, and some people are simply people who are deeply involved with the Donglin Party.

These people's faces were more ugly, but they were excited to see the people around them, and they didn't know whether to speak or not.

However, some people didn't care, and stood up with a bang.

This person is Li Mao, an imperial historian of the Imperial Procuratorate. When everyone saw Li Mao standing up, their faces were not very good-looking, because everyone knew that this Li Mao was a person, although he was not a member of the Donglin Party, but he was relatively close to the Donglin Party.

Yu Maoheng also turned his head to look at Li Mao, and said tepidly: "What do you want to say?" ”

"Don't you think that's inappropriate, my lord? The traitorous party in the mouth of the adults seems to me to be an example for the courtiers and a model for the world's scholars. What is the imperial court doing now? The imperial court is now cracking down on lectures and wants to destroy the world's academies. Adults are also readers, and they should know what this means, so should adults turn a blind eye to this? ”

Li Mao stood up straight, he knew that no one present would speak for him, so he could only stand up for himself!

"Lord Sun Shenxing, Lord Gao Panlong, are they for themselves? They are in high positions and can stay out of it, why do they do that? They are not fighting for themselves, they are fighting for the people who read the world! ”

"At such a time, shouldn't we, as scholars, share the same hatred? Shouldn't we stand together against this policy? At such a time, Sun and Gao are down, and at such a time, there is only party strife in their eyes, I think such a person is not worthy of being a scholar, let alone an official of the Ming Dynasty! ”

Although Li Mao said very loudly, the people present were quite unimpressed.

Li Mao looked at Cui Chengxiu angrily, eager to kill with his eyes, but his sword-sharp gaze did not make Cui Chengxiu show a ashamed expression, but instead made him have a playful smile on his face.

In Cui Chengxiu's opinion, Li Mao just had a bad brain, and he said such useless words at this time.

Yu Maoheng didn't speak, but picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. His meaning is obvious, such a small character doesn't have to speak by himself, right?

Cui Chengxiu, who was on the side, knew that Yu Maoheng didn't speak, so he could only speak by himself, so he glanced at Li Mao and asked lightly: "Why did Your Majesty not allow you to give lectures?" Why did Your Majesty not allow the opening of the academy? His Majesty just didn't allow anyone to be able to give lectures, and he didn't allow anyone to open a academy. ”

"Isn't it good for the academy to be opened by the imperial court? Isn't it good for the imperial court to preside over the lectures? What are you against? Don't you think it's bad that anyone can talk about it, and everyone can talk about heresy? ”

Cui Chengxiu's series of tortures made Li Mao even more angry in his heart, but he couldn't say a word for a long time.

Cui Chengxiu continued: "He Sun Shenxing and Gao Panlong, what are they doing? Are they admonishing Your Majesty? They are forcing Your Majesty! Is this what a courtier should do? ”

Also, don't always talk about the world's readers. This official is also a scholar, and all the adults sitting here are also scholars, and we are all reading sage books, and we are all Confucian saints who believe in it, so we feel that they are forming a party for personal gain! ”

Li Mao looked at Cui Chengxiu, his eyes were full of anger, and he said angrily: "People are doing it, the sky is watching!" If you do such a thing, sooner or later you will be punished! ”

"I, Li Mao, am ashamed to be with you, and I will never give in! For the sake of the Ming Dynasty, for the sake of the world's readers, I will definitely go to Your Majesty! ”

"If it doesn't work, we will go to the door and kneel outside, and we must let His Majesty take back his life!" After saying this, Li Mao flicked his sleeves suddenly, turned around and walked straight outside.

Looking at the back of Li Mao leaving in a hurry, Yu Maoheng drank tea without changing his face.

Cui Chengxiu's face was very ugly.

Seeing Yu Maoheng like this, Cui Chengxiu expressed his worries with an embarrassed face: "My lord, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for him to look like this, right?" ”

If they really let them make trouble at noon, we are afraid that our Majesty will be dissatisfied. This time, His Majesty is already very angry. Sun Shenxing and Gao Panlong's persecution in the court has already made His Majesty ruthless.

If they do it again now, how angry will His Majesty be? Who will be able to stop it?

Although these people are taking advantage of this matter, they don't dare to really provoke His Majesty. Once Your Majesty is really provoked and starts a big case, how many people will be implicated at that time?

The last time the case was not finished, all the Ministry of Works, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Household were swept away, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate lost most of it, and how many people were killed? How many people were raided? Is Your Majesty the kind of person who compromises?

It really angered His Majesty, and it was another bloody storm.

What they want is power, they don't want a broken court, so Choi Chengxiu is also worried. Of course, if things were somewhere else, he would gloat

But if the matter is in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the ghost knows if it will implicate himself

Yu Maoheng was still silent, glanced at Cui Chengxiu, put down the teacup in his hand, and said slowly: "Can we stop it?" Stop one Li Mao, and there will be others. All we can do is show our attitude in the book. ”

"When you go back, ask everyone to write a question book right away. I'll send it to you after I see it. I'm going to write it right away, and everyone looks at the basic content and writes it. But there is one point, that is, the Donglin Party is a traitorous party, a traitorous party headed by Gao Panlong, Sun Shenxing, Zou Yuanbiao and Yang Lian, and they were also involved in the previous case, and this time they persecuted His Majesty because they were resentful in their hearts. ”

Resentment, this is a big crime, and it is a crime that cannot be taken off if it is buckled

Cui Chengxiu glanced at Yu Maoheng, with an excited look on his face. He didn't expect Yu Maoheng to be so ruthless, and he was also a little vigilant in his heart.

But now is not the time to think about this, so Cui Chengxiu hurriedly stood up, bowed down and said, "Don't worry, Dutang, I will definitely handle things well." ”

Nodding slightly, Yu Maoheng smiled and waved his hand, and said, "Okay, you guys go!" ”

After a few people left, Yu Maoheng's face softened.

After pondering for a moment, Yu Maoheng smiled self-deprecatingly and muttered: "How can there be so many rights and wrongs, his hero, my enemy, that's it." ”

Regarding his own position, Yu Maoheng has long stood firm, and he is now on Xu Guangqi's side.

When things first started to make trouble, Yu Maoheng had already expressed his attitude, and he also went to visit Xu Guangqi for this reason. At this time, Yu Maoheng naturally would not waver, he needed to firm up his position, so Li Mao's words could not shake him.

During this period of contact with Xu Guangqi, Yu Maoheng really found some interesting things, especially after studying some of Li Zhen's books, he really had some ideas in his heart.

Originally, I studied Li Zhen's book in order to decorate the façade. After all, if you don't know anything, wouldn't it be a joke?

Therefore, Yu Maoheng studied Li Zhen's book very carefully, and as a result, some of them fell into it, and he found that as long as he threw away the old things, Li Zhen's ideas were still easy to accept.

It's just that there are some things that most people don't dare to say, only Li Zhen dares to say it.

It's not that no one thought of these things before, and the more Yu Maoheng looked at it, the more he agreed.

For example, Li Zhen said that the current way of Confucius and Mencius is no longer the original way of Confucius and Mencius, all of them are the writings of later generations, and no one knows why the sage said this sentence at that time, and no one knows what the sage thought at that time. Everything is a posterity record, and no one knows how many distortions and misinterpretations there are.

To take the simplest example, the explanations of science and psychology are different on many issues, and even the explanations of the present and the previous dynasties are different.

This shows that these are not the doctrines of the saints, nor are they the ideas of the saints, and all of them are all chiseled by later generations.

Doesn't the reader know about these?

No, everyone who reads knows it. It's just that they need to do things under this banner, so they all have to maintain this thing.

Only Li Zhen turned these things out, and even Li Zhen further proposed that not all saints are saints; Even if he is a saint in a certain place, he cannot be omniscient and omnipotent.

There is no eternal law in the world, and there are no eternal saints.

Yu Maoheng has accepted this statement in his heart, at least on the surface, because his position is like this, so he let himself accept this position in his heart.

This is the struggle between the two schools, and from ancient times to the present, the struggle between schools of thought has been life-and-death.

Whether it is the struggle between Teacher Huang and Confucianism, or the contention of a hundred schools of thought further forward, which one is not bloody?

So Yu Maoheng was ruthless, because when one thing started, there was really no way back.

Putting down the teacup in his hand, Yu Maoheng also stood up.

He's ready to write a question book, and he wants to write a beautiful one, so he has to think about it carefully, and this matter can't go wrong.

Forbidden City, Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Youxiao also put down the teacup in his hand, glanced at Wei Zhongxian, who was kneeling below, and asked expressionlessly, "You said that someone wants to kneel at the noon gate?" And not even one or two people, and even already started in tandem? ”
