Chapter 44: The Abolition of the Emperor
Sure enough, as Fei Qian guessed, Cai Yong's anger came from the abolition of the emperor, strictly speaking, not because of the result of the abolition of the emperor, but more in the process of abolishing the emperor. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
At today's court meeting, Dong Zhuo took advantage of the civil and military situation of the conference to announce to everyone: "The Son of Heaven is weak and not enough to rule the world." Now there is a plan to read it out. Then he ordered Li Ru to read out the document on the abolition of the emperor.
Li Ru's voice of reading the text made Emperor Han Shaodi sweat and panic.
Dong Zhuo proposed to abolish the emperor with the acquiescence of Wang Yun and Yuan Kui, and no one in the Manchu Dynasty squeaked in the civil and military scriptures, only the Shangshu, and the former Beizhong Lang stood up for Lu Zhi and reprimanded angrily: "In the past, Taijia was established, and it was unknown, and Yi Yin put it in the Tong Palace." On the 27th day of the establishment of the king of Changyi, he committed a thousand crimes, and he was abolished by Huo Guang. Today's wealth is in the spring and autumn, and there is no loss, which is not the comparison of the past. "-It means that the ministers who abolished the emperor before Yi Yin and Huo Guang had a precedent for a valid reason, Dong Zhuo, you are not a legitimate reason, pure nonsense, and the previous Yi Yin and Huo Guang cannot be compared.
After speaking, Lu Zhi saw that the matter was irreparable, so he went straight down to resign and went to Gujun Dushan to live in seclusion.
Poor Emperor Han Shaodi sat on the throne, and when Lu Zhi stood up at the beginning, he was still full of hope to look left and right to see if other ministers could come up to oppose Dong Zhuo and help him say a word, but it seemed that he only saw a group of ministers with their heads bowed like quails, and the eyes of Liu Wei, the young emperor of Han Dynasty, gradually dimmed with expectation.
And so the drama took place.
The crown and seal of Emperor Shao of the Han Dynasty were lifted, King Chen Liu was invited to the throne, and a group of people seemed to have rehearsed countless times, and they congratulated the original King Chen Liu and the new emperor with skillful business......
In that dynasty, Dong Zhuo was promoted to Xiangguo, announcing that the Dong family had officially become the largest foreign relative party canonized by the imperial court......
Cai Yong's anger was actually not only Dong Zhuo's abolition of the emperor, but also the acquiescence of the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty who did not resist, of course, including himself - for a moment, he had the urge to rush up and speak generously with Lu Zhi, but when he thought of his family and Cai Yan, he hesitated again, so he followed the general trend in a daze, completing the whole process of the young emperor's abdication and the new emperor's accession to the throne.
But after going to the court and returning home, Cai Yong felt that what he did today was in conflict with the Confucian concepts he had learned, but this contradictory mood could not be vented, so he had to hold back his anger in his heart.
Seeing Fei Qian standing solemnly on the side, Cai Yong endured the emotion of suffocation, and remembered that Fei Qian came to thank the teacher today, so he forced a few words of encouragement to Fei Qian.
However, in the end, Cai Yong finally couldn't hold back, and asked Fei Qian: "Ziyuan, what do you think of the matter of 'Jun can make up for it, and Gon will not be wasted'?" ”
Although Fei Qian subconsciously immediately wanted to pick up the classic phrase "there must be something strange about this matter", but after all, Cai Yong was exploring a moral explanation in the name of literary research, and Fei Qian naturally couldn't be so skinless and faceless.
"You can make up for it, and you don't waste it" came out of the Jin Ling official biography of the left pass.
Jin Linggong is a person full of high-end fun, he even likes to hold a slingshot on the high platform of the palace wall, and he feels very happy when he sees the pedestrians dodging......
It is unique for a dignified prince and king to like to do this kind of thing.
Therefore, the ministers of Jin Linggong were very worried, and felt that they wanted to guide Jin Linggong on the right path of advanced ballistics, and they couldn't play slingshot and bullet chirps all day long, which would be useless.
So a minister Zhao Dun went to persuade Jin Linggong, but Jin Linggong said that he knew, and he would correct it but he just didn't change, and later persuaded Jin Linggong to kill Zhao Dun when he was annoyed, but Zhao Dun had luck to protect himself, and he couldn't kill it after killing a few times, so he killed Jin Linggong in turn, greeted the black buttocks of the prince of the Jin Kingdom, and established the black buttocks as the monarch.
In fact, Fei Qian has seen Zuo Chuan, and is quite familiar with Zuo Chuan, every time he sees this, Fei Qian wants to laugh, how simple the people were in the Spring and Autumn Period, the name is really good, what an image - black buttocks, wow Ka ...... Or the king......
However, the focus of Cai Yong's question today is not whether the monarch's buttocks are white or black, but to quote Jin Linggong to allude to what happened at today's court meeting - "The king can make up for it, and Gon will not be abolished" - if Emperor Shaodi of Han can correct his mistakes, shouldn't he abolish the emperor? Even if Emperor Shaodi of Han is at fault, should he be persuaded first, it is really hopeless to take the path of abolishing the emperor in the end?
Because in the Confucian concept, no matter how stupid and demented the so-called "Son of Heaven" is, no matter how cruel and immoral, no matter how perverted, he is "sacred", and he cannot be offended, and he cannot be easily impeached and crusaded, otherwise he will commit the crime of bullying the king, blasphemy, and committing rebellion.
Therefore, Cai Yong felt that the emperor had to persuade when he was at fault, but he failed to do it, the emperor was abolished casually, and he couldn't dissuade him, and now that he has reached this point, he feels uneasy.
Fei Qian thought about it, his master is good at everything, but it's a little too idealistic, you don't see a few squeaks from the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, most of them are happy to welcome the new emperor, so who else cares about the abolition of the emperor?
But you can't just say it to Cai Yong like this, otherwise you won't be scolded to death by Cai Yong. Don't look at Cai Yong didn't dare to scold Dong Zhuo in the court, but scolding his disciples, Cai Yong wouldn't feel that there was any problem of daring.
Fei Qian pondered for a moment and said: "Song Chu is the alliance under the city, and its alliance says, 'I have no deceit, and I have no worries'." "--This is said to be a matter of deception between Chu and Song at that time, and everything written in the covenant can be openly overturned, let alone an emperor now, master, you are an honest gentleman to others, but not necessarily everyone else is an honest gentleman!
Who doesn't cheat? If you don't cheat, it's hard to stand on your feet and it's hard to get your own benefit. The so-called "Spring and Autumn Unrighteous War" also contains conflicts of interest between countries to a certain extent, and always contains elements of fraud.
The current situation is also like this, you look at Dong Zhuo's army under Luoyang City, in this case, what is the second choice? Besides, the Manchu civil and military forces are not seeking their own interests? Why didn't the Yuan family and the Wang family say anything, isn't there any fraud or benefits behind this?
Cai Yong sighed: "That being said, but ......" Cai Yong didn't finish his words, but the meaning is clear, and everyone understands the truth, but when it comes to practical problems, it is often not possible to make it.
Cai Yong shook his head, although he seemed to be a little relieved than just now, but he was still not in a very good mood, patted Fei Qian's shoulder, and asked Fei Qian to go back to study, and let Fei Qian go back.
When Fei sneaked out of Cai's mansion, he was still wondering, did Cai Yong's character become the reason for the contradictory crying Dong Zhuo in history? But now, Dong Zhuo didn't give Cai Yong much of an official position, so Cai Yong shouldn't be grateful to Dong Zhuo, right?
Fei Qian thought about it, and in order to ensure that his guess was correct, he felt that it was necessary to go to another person to test the temptation, although it was quite difficult......
