Chapter 450: Great Unification
Cui Shilin was overjoyed and went to arrange the publication...... It's just that this product really doesn't read much, and the knowledge is not very good, and after it was really published, it exploded in an instant!
Because Wang Yue's article looks grandiose and there is no problem, even in the cognition of the Da Ming scholars, this is the case.
When it comes to how Da Ming is, everyone will be filled with high pride.
There's no way, they also want to keep a low profile, but the strength doesn't allow it!
But as a scholar and courtier, how could he not see what Wang Yue was pointing at. He took a problem that was not a problem at all in the Ming Dynasty, and it was the head of science that he wanted to behead, and he had to deal with Zhu Xi, who was also known as the "son" with him!
In Wang Yue's article, he preached great unification, and it is obvious that the Ming Dynasty also met the standards of great unification, and it was well deserved...... However, in the current Confucian discourse, it prefers to use orthodox expressions and deliberately avoids great unification.
In fact, in the eyes of the ancients, the core of the great unification is not much different from the later generations, the territory should be vast, the force should be strong, and whoever is unhappy will be beaten, and the Huns will fight until they surrender.
There is a bit of a domineering flavor in it, and there is also a bit of strong worship...... But then again, if you don't worship the strong, do you have to worship the weak?
No matter what dynasty it is, as long as it has a little bit of talent, it will pursue great unification.
Since the Qin, Han, Sui and Tang dynasties, it has been the same, there is no difference.
If you are unlucky, you will be unlucky in Zhao Song!
Originally, the emperor of the Zhao family also pursued unification, but the god of war of the Gaoliang River was able to manipulate it slightly, and Zhao Song lost the capital to recapture Yanyun...... Without the sixteen states of Yanyun, they were called the Southern Dynasty by the Liao State, and the monarchs and ministers of the Great Song Dynasty were shameless, and they did not dare to claim to be a great unification.
Since it is not a large unified dynasty, and it is different from a small court in a corner of peace, how should it be described?
At this juncture, orthodoxy prevails.
The so-called orthodoxy is biased towards morality, which is like saying that I am the upright successor of this family, and I am right...... Of course, only he knows how much he inherited.
In fact, this orthodoxy was also unpopular in the Northern Song Dynasty, such as Ouyang Xiu, Su Shi, and even Sima Guang, all of whom criticized orthodoxy and supported great unification.
The subtext is also very clear, although we haven't gotten Yanyun now, we have this ambition, we must recover Yanyun, achieve great unification, and let the world become one!
It's just that this bit of heart, after the shame of Jingkang, has disappeared completely, and the Southern Song Dynasty is peaceful, which has become a fact, and no matter how self-deceptive you are, you can't deceive the people.
At this critical moment of the critical survival of the Zhao and Song dynasties, the great sage Zhu Xi came into being, and he vigorously promoted orthodoxy.
It enriches the connotation of orthodoxy and fully expresses the spirit of hiding my ears and stealing the bell for nothing as long as I revise the standards......
In Zhu Xi's view, the orthodox dynasties included the Qin and the Han Dynasty...... Then something happened, how should the Three Kingdoms calculate? With a stroke of his pen, Zhu Xi counted the Shu Han as orthodox, and then the Western Jin Dynasty.
This is interesting, the Western Jin Dynasty obviously inherited Cao Wei, and they accepted the Zen concession of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, they are not orthodox, orthodoxy is in Uncle Liu Huang, who established himself as the emperor, and I don't know what Zhu Xi thinks.
Anyway, after passing this hurdle, Zhu Xi rode on this evil road, riding the dust, and the orthodoxy after the Western Jin Dynasty was the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and then the four small courts of Song, Qi, Liang and Chen.
Now the mistake is even bigger, even to the point of absurdity...... The Northern Wei Dynasty was the initiator of the military system, and the Western Wei Dynasty, which was split from the Northern Wei Dynasty, gave birth to the Guanlong Group with the Eight Pillars as the core...... Western Wei, Northern Zhou, Sui, Tang, this is an inheritance relationship.
But Zhu Xi doesn't care about this set here, anyway, the south is orthodox, so it has been continued, and it has reached the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.
How else to say that Zhu Xi's orthodoxy is absurd!
Because he listed Shu Han as orthodox, where is the orthodoxy of the five dynasties?
What about the Southern Tang?
Is it orthodox?
Is it that until there is no Southern Tang Dynasty, the Song Dynasty is orthodox, and the previous Later Zhou is not orthodox?
Obviously, Zhu Xi didn't have the guts, in his orthodoxy, after the Tang Dynasty, it was the Later Liang, the Later Tang, the Later Jin, the Later Han and the Later Zhou!
And then there are two songs!
In the same vein, they are all orthodox.
Combing through here, the confusion of Zhu Xi's view of history and the absurdity of orthodoxy are already obvious.
Wang Yue's article, which breaks the topic with great unification, is to directly point to the historical view of science.
If it is not clear and there are blind spots, then it will be broken and the whole line will collapse...... It is precisely because of this that people who understand the power of this article can't help but be shocked and shudder.
Is this going to be another great debate?
Is it to defend Zhu Zi desperately, or to abandon science and switch to Wang Xue?
The three new scholars in the cabinet, Zhai Luan, Huo Tao, and Li Shi, looked at each other and didn't know what to do.
"Zhang Ge Lao has a heart-to-heart with us, he intends to innovate and change the law, and we also support it, but Uncle Fuyuan's article is very important, I, we are really passive!" Huo Tao sighed helplessly.
Li Shidao: "I just heard that the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Fang Xianfu, the Hubu Shangshu Xishu, and the Right Capital Yushi Xia Yan are all clamoring to publicly debate the scriptures. After all, Zhu Zi's learning is the official learning of Taizu, and it is a ...... If the foundation of government and learning is shaken because of this, it will be difficult to handle the rest of the matter. ”
It's Zhai Luan, his vision is higher.
"Have you two thought about it, since you have copied the Kong family, Zhu Zi will not be spared...... And rightfully so! ”
These words frightened both Huo Tao and Li Shi.
Could it be that this is the result of deliberate consideration?
If that's the case, they'll have to think about it...... How a little frightened and chilling!
These three even regretted it a little, what did they do in the cabinet, squinting in a place where no one saw it, wouldn't it be fragrant to escape this catastrophe? At this juncture, as a cabinet elder, if he makes a bad statement, he will not only lose his official position and be dismissed, but he is even likely to become a villain in the history books and become a complete clown.
My God, who can save us?
This couple thought about it for a long time, but it was still Li Shiling.
"Since Elder Zhang Ge is with us, let's be open and honest, and ask him what he thinks and how the cabinet should deal with this matter!"
It's too straightforward, but it's a good idea to think about it.
I hope Zhang Shoufu can be a kind person, otherwise they will really be in a dilemma.
"Hahaha!" Zhang Fujing couldn't help laughing, "What's so difficult about this, just ask my master to come over and talk about it, and it will be clear." ”
"Huh?" Huo Tao was shocked, "Uncle Fu Yuan is willing to talk to us?" ”
"How could you not want to! Didn't he just say this when he came to the altar to give a lecture? ”
Zhang Xuan was really straightforward, and he actually went to invite Wang Yue, and Wang Yue did not hesitate, and soon came.
"Three pavilion elders, I haven't been here since you joined the pavilion, so I forgot to congratulate you." Wang Yue smiled.
The three of them are submissive.
"Uncle Fuyuan is polite, polite."
After everyone sat down, Zhang Xuan spoke directly.
"Master, the three pavilion elders have some doubts, I don't know if you can answer them?"
Wang Yue said with a smile: "It's not about solving doubts, just discussing together." Wang Yue said, turned to the three pavilion elders and said, "If you have any questions, or if there is anything wrong with what I said, please say it directly!" ”
The three of them hesitated for a moment, and Zhai Luan, who was the most astute, said: "Uncle Fuyuan, there is indeed a dispute between unification and orthodoxy or orthodoxy." Looking at Fu Yuanbo's article, it seems that he advocates greater unification. If it is according to Fu Yuanbo's statement, what is the Yuan Dynasty? Isn't it also a big unification? If the Yuan Dynasty is also counted, they poisoned the Central Plains, left endless disasters, and regarded the Han people as livestock slaves...... This, I'm afraid this thing can't be explained! ”
Huo Tao and Li Shi also nodded.
"Hahahaha!"
Wang Yue laughed loudly, "Three elders, if you ask me about the Yuan Dynasty, then I will ask you a question...... Is my Daming considered a great unification? ”
"Of course, there is nothing to blame, I am the right of the country, and I am the best in the past and the present!"
"Hahaha!" Wang Yue smiled again, "Zhu Xi's orthodoxy was born in the Southern Song Dynasty, so it always sounds obedient." His mind is also on maintaining the Zhao and Song dynasties, which is understandable. But since I am a great unification and orthodoxy, what are we still struggling with? ”
"As for whether the Yuan Dynasty is considered a great unification, can we find a way to rule it out, that is something that a few pavilion elders should think about, what Wang means is that we are a great unified country, and we are still constrained by the orthodoxy of the partial imperial court, isn't it a bit pedantic?"
Wang Yue said with a smile: "Since my Emperor Taizu drove the Great Yuan to the north and recovered Yanyun, the controversy between the two Song Dynasty and three hundred years is like child's play!" It's gone, it's not worth mentioning. ”
"Therefore, the key to this matter is not what Zhu Xi said, not what happened in the Great Yuan Dynasty, but whether Kyushu is unified and whether the world is unified!"
"As long as this is done, I believe that with the wisdom of the princes, there will naturally be a way to deal with the problems of the Great Yuan Dynasty, either to be included in the Great Unification or to be excluded...... The key to this matter is whether I am strong enough! Over the years, although the land of Yanyun is still there, what about the Hetao and Jiaozhi...... We have given up a lot of places, and if we don't correct them as soon as possible, I am afraid that one day, we will also face the entanglement of unification and righteousness! ”
