Zhu Zaiji, you are bold! ”

Zhu Houxi suddenly scolded loudly, and the little prince was so frightened by this voice that his face turned pale and trembled. He struggled to look back, just as he collided with his father's fiery gaze, and the panicked little one wanted to kneel, but he didn't watch out, and grabbed him by the collar with one hand.

"Your Highness, you're right, don't kneel...... The crown will fall! ”

Master's warm voice sounded, and Zhu Zaiji miraculously supported his waist, but his head still lowered unconsciously.

Zhu Houxi was violent, rushed to Wang Yue's face, and shouted angrily: "Good student you taught! ”

Wang Yue was not afraid, but smiled on his face and patted Zhu Zaiji gently.

"Your Highness, let's go out and play!"

Zhu Zaiji was nervous, not knowing what would happen to his father and master! He hesitated, but he was terrified, he was too young to cope. He can talk about his opinions, but he doesn't know how to convince others.

"It's okay, let's get out! Let me have a few heartfelt words with Your Majesty. ”

Zhu Zaiji finally left, Wang Yue lowered his head, and turned out two gold cups from the drawer, which were given to him by Cui Shilin, and Wang Yue took out a jar of Fenjiu aged wine sent by Yang Bo, poured a cup for Zhu Houxi, and filled a cup for himself.

"Your Majesty, you know that the minister's alcohol consumption is not good, and today's words are not easy to say, so allow the minister to drink some wine and strengthen his courage!"

Zhu Houxi pinched the golden cup and snorted coldly.

"Wang Yue, do you know what I was thinking when I saw this wine glass?"

"Most of them are golden cups like drinking, and the white blades don't spare each other!"

"Clever!" Zhu Houxi snorted his wine glass angrily, and said indifferently: "I finally understand that the great grandfather was going to kill people back then, and some people really deserve to die!" Especially the proud! ”

Wang Yue didn't answer directly, but took a sip of wine, and his fair face instantly turned red.

Zhu Houxi's stomach was full of anger, and he also took a sip, wanting to suppress the fire, but he forgot that the wine was strong, and the fire burned even more.

He couldn't wait to say, "Wang Yue, what did the prince say, did you hear it?" What is the difference between his statement and those old ministers who advise me to love the people and rest for the people? In his tone, he despised his ancestors, he believed the nonsense of Yan Jun's people...... The prince is still young, I won't bother with him, I want to ask you now! What did you, the master, teach? Are you ill-intentioned, do you want to do Yang Tinghe second? You want to set up me, you want to rebel! ”

Facing Zhu Houxi's crazy questioning, Wang Yue smiled faintly, "Your Majesty, you are really too worried, the minister never meant this!" ”

"You talk nonsense! So why did the prince think that? ”

"Because it's right!"

"You!"

Zhu Houxi was furious and stood up in anger.

"Right? What do you mean? What exactly do you want to do? Even you want to betray me? ”

Wang Yue shook his head, "Your Majesty, the minister really doesn't mean anything, what the minister says is on the surface, right is right, wrong is wrong!" ”

"You fart!" Zhu Houxi scolded unceremoniously: "Don't put gold on your face." What Yang Ting and those people do is harboring evil intentions, what you do is above board, how can there be this reason? You say! ”

"Your Majesty!" Wang Yue said: "Do you still remember Yang Minggong's lecture in Yanzhou? In fact, Yang Minggong made it very clear that Confucianism in the past, or Xianxue, was not right. ”

"How?"

"It's simple...... In the Spring and Autumn Period, the hundred schools of thought, even the Mo family, which was most concerned about the people's livelihood, were based on advising the monarch and helping the monarch govern the people. As for Confucianism, Legalism, and even Taoism, they all discuss how to govern the people...... Use benevolent government in exchange for the support of the people, and use severe punishment and harsh laws to intimidate the people and make them obey. Or try to minimize management and save costs...... Isn't the so-called scholar a nobleman under the princes of the Son of Heaven! The so-called scholars and kings rule the world together, to put it bluntly, isn't it just a group of people who want to be stewards for the emperor? ”

"In their eyes, the emperor is the master of the family, just like the proprietor of the merchant house, they are the bookkeepers, and the common people are the ones who do the hard work below."

"The boss's means are clever, they are obedient, if the means are poor, there are slaves who bully the master!"

……

Zhu Houxi listened to Wang Yue's words, and indeed penetrated into it, "You speak well, but you can't just talk about reason, right?" Including your West Hill College? Are you that clean? I'm afraid that the evil intentions you harbor are even greater than these people! ”

Wang Yue did not deny it, "Your Majesty, in the past few years, the minister has talked with Yang Minggong, as well as other Confucians, and even the three religions and nine streams. Gradually, we have an idea, that is, from the perspective of the people, to build knowledge, to think about how to govern the world, how to create a prosperous Ming Dynasty! ”

"The Ming Dynasty? I think it's a troubled time! Zhu Houxi said unceremoniously: "You finally tell the truth, follow your set, isn't it Yan Jun's madness?" Isn't that right? ”

"That's not right!"

Wang Yue said categorically: "Your Majesty, Yan Jun's idea of a small country and a widow is completely naïve, throw him to Liaodong, it won't be long before he can understand his absurdity." What the minister wants to say now is, Your Majesty, what kind of son of heaven do you want to be! ”

"What kind of Son of Heaven? Is there a difference between the Son of Heaven? ”

"Of course." Wang Yue said with a smile: "Your Majesty, in the Confucian system, the Son of Heaven is regarded as the monarch's father, becoming the head of the general ethics, and has the power of the Qiangang Gang and the golden mouth, saying one thing and the other, and is the master of the world!" ”

"Isn't that right?" Zhu Houxi frowned and asked.

Wang Yue laughed, "Your Majesty, of course the minister doesn't dare to say that this is wrong, the minister just wants to tell Your Majesty about two different sons of heaven...... One of them, born in a martial arts, made repeated military exploits, continued to be promoted, and finally took advantage of the death of the Son of Heaven to get the support of his subordinates, replace the little emperor, set up a new dynasty, and ascended the throne as the emperor. ”

Zhu Houxi snorted: "This is Song Taizu!" ”

"That's right!" Wang Yue said with a smile: "Zhao Song took the world with fox charm, naturally he was disappointed, and openly admitted that he shared the world with scholars, accommodating literati everywhere, and did not dare to deal with scholars. Timid and cowardly, without courage at all. ”

"Not only is it incompetent to govern the country, but even when it comes to death, I don't dare to die and die for the country! As a result, the father and son were arrested and confessed to being taken prisoner. It's not even as good as a woman, it's a shame for all dynasties! ”

Zhu Houxi nodded, "You scolded the Zhao and Song dynasties, and even kicked them out of the ranks of the great unification, I agree." ”

"But there is another emperor, who was born poor, endured all the hardships, and when he couldn't survive, he angrily joined the army, carried a three-foot sword, and killed decisively. to have the world. After winning the country, no matter the heroes and doctors, as long as they commit crimes, they will be killed and slaughtered, without mercy. Diligent government and love for the people, the most of the Son of Heaven in all dynasties, no one can match. ”

Zhu Houxi finally smiled, "This time you're talking about Grandpa!" ”

"That's right, the minister thinks that there are two kinds of Son of Heaven, one is represented by Emperor Zhao and Song, they are the accomplices of the scholars, and their butts sit on the side of the scholars, and their changes are just to persuade the scholars to give up a little benefit, don't let the people starve to death, don't let the court die of poverty. However, they did not establish the country properly, and they could not do it at all. ”

"There is also a kind of Son of Heaven, that is, Emperor Taizu, who knew from the beginning that the Son of Heaven was on the side of the people and had no choice but to use scholars to govern the country, but he was full of vigilance and strict restraint on scholars. No mercy! ”

Zhu Houxi showed a thoughtful look, "Wang Yue, are you trying to persuade me to learn from Grandpa?" ”

"It's not!" Wang Yue said: "Your Majesty, Grandpa Tai is a person after all, although his old man has set so many rules, but after more than a hundred years, it has become unrecognizable, and the scholars still steal the power...... This is the truth of the drop of water, one person, finally no match for a group of people. ”

"The minister is a close minister of His Majesty, and the minister does not want His Majesty to learn from the Emperor of Zhao and Song Dynasty and compromise with the scholars, and the minister does not want His Majesty to work hard like Taizu, and in the end he works in vain."

"I hope that Your Majesty can take a different path. In the past, among the 100 people, there were only three or five scholars, who could rely on oppression and coaxing the poor to live a life of superiority. But if there are thirty or fifty scholars out of a hundred people, and everyone knows each other, how can they deceive people, and how can they get something for nothing? ”

"The people have understood the truth, and His Majesty can choose to stand on the side of the people, with the support of countless people...... Your Majesty, think of how powerful you must have been then! ”

"Your Majesty said that the minister wants to be the second Yang Tinghe, and said that the minister wants to steal the power of the Son of Heaven and plot against him, may I ask Your Majesty, is there such a plot?"

Is there such a thing?

Zhu Houxi was moved to tears, he suddenly grabbed the golden cup and poured it into his stomach violently. A scorching heat rose from his chest, and the whole person was about to burn!

He held Wang Yue's hand tightly, "Xiao Fugui, I don't have a brother yet, even if I do, there will be no two of us kissing!" ”

This pair of monarchs and ministers are drinking and talking and laughing...... After turning around, the Shangshu Fang Xianfu of the Ministry of Heavenly Rites came to ask to see, what should I do with the tablet of the Taimiao? Should Xuanzong still throw it out?
