Chapter 849: Angry Youth
Wu Zheng didn't get up, he sat there quietly, looking at this Mr. Wozi, who was famous for his talent and learning, but did the abolition of the establishment twice.
Regarding Chen Zilong's feelings, Wu Zheng thought of two words - "angry youth".
If you add a definition, it is an angry youth who has a little selfish intentions but does not deserve to die.
Chen Zilong's selfishness is not reflected in "money", but in fame.
In fact, greed for fame is also a kind of corruption.
From beginning to end, Wu Zheng only had respect for Chen Zilong, and did not have the slightest good impression.
Because Chen Zilong's wings are too "plump", he is close friends with Xia Wanchun's father Xia Yunyi, and he is also close friends with Chen Hongfan, who lives Qin Hui.
When he was ordered by Lu Jian to control the army of the seven provinces, he supervised Wu Yiyi's division, but in the name of the righteous army's "military discipline and daily galloping", he threw his hands and left, regardless of whether he asked, so that Wu Yiyi's division was defeated and destroyed, of course, it cannot be said that it was all because of him.
But Chen Zilong can't say goodbye, military discipline is not good, you don't want to correct it as a discipliner, what is the reason for being a hands-off shopkeeper?
He is more like a scholar who talks about misleading the country, and does not have the character of a doer.
Therefore, at the beginning of the fight, Wu Zheng was reluctant to get close to him, he was different from Qian Sule's stubbornness. Chen Zilong is a kind of arrogance of a scholar, a talent that is beneficial to the country and the people, and he is stuck in his throat and can't pour it out.
"Chen Zilong pays a visit to the prince, thank you for saving your life!"
Chen Zilong bowed down in front of Wu Zheng, and this humility really caught Wu Zheng off guard.
This life-saving grace that Chen Zilong said is not an exaggeration at all.
Chen Zilong hit his head on the pillar that day, if it weren't for Wu Zheng, Qian Sule and others who insisted that the emperor send an imperial doctor to save people, I am afraid that Chen Zilong would have died at this time.
Wu Zheng is a person who eats soft rather than hard, and seeing Chen Zilong so humble at this time, it is not good to speak coldly anymore.
So he got up and said: "Mr. Wozi doesn't have to be polite, he is a minister in the same hall, and he is reasonable to help, and this is not the work of this king alone, and many ministers ......in the court have contributed to saving you." ”
"Lord Wang!" Chen Zilong suddenly broke free of Wu Zheng's hand and cried, "I can see through it this time, the Ming room should die...... There is no help. Since the death of the first emperor, I, Chen Zilong, have worked hard for the revitalization of the Ming Room, but what happened to me? Lord Wang, this time I came to Hangzhou, in order to come to you, from now on, I don't want to think about the surname Zhu, just contribute to the Han people in this world. I hope that the prince will take him in regardless of his previous suspicions. ”
Wu Zheng was dumbfounded, he really didn't expect Chen Zilong to come to him, this is a person who is so arrogant and empty-eyed.
But Wu Zheng didn't dare to use him, because Wu Zheng knew that the water behind Chen Zilong was too deep, whether it was the former eunuch party, Qingliu or Donglin party, whether it was an iron-clad loyal minister or a traitor who was naked, he had something to do with him.
This is not the most headache for Wu Zheng, the most headache is that Chen Zilong's concept is incompatible with himself, that is, the distribution of the interests of the world, because Chen Zilong represents the interests of the literati and scholars in Jiangnan.
If we want to reshape the world, we must redistribute interests, overthrow and defeat the stratum of vested interests, and form a new stratum of interests.
Can Chen Zilong Ken?
Wu Zheng let go of Chen Zilong's arm in embarrassment and paced back and forth.
Seeing Wu Zheng's hesitation, Chen Zilong hurriedly said: "I don't want high-ranking officials, as long as the prince can take him in, I will definitely live up to the prince." ”
Wu Zheng took a long breath, pulled Chen Zilong up, pressed him on the chair, and said, "Since everything has been said about this, I will spread it out with Mr., how about it?" ”
"Please advise the prince, Zilong will listen to you."
"Good. Let's talk about the four words I talked to my husband about robbing the rich and helping the poor two years ago. ”
"Lord Wang......."
Wu Zheng pressed his hand and said, "Sir, listen to me first." ”
"Yes."
"I declare that I never thought of throwing the rich of the world into the dust. The reason why the rich are rich is because of their reason, the so-called existence is reasonable, and since it is reasonable, it must be allowed to exist. Do you agree with this? ”
Chen Zilong nodded again and again.
Wu Zhengdao: "At the same time, the rich have been rich for several generations, and they have connections and wealth, and the rich can do many things that the poor can't do, whether it is for officials or business, the rich have an innate advantage. Do you agree with this? ”
Chen Zilong nodded again and again.
Wu Zheng slowly sat back in his chair and asked while thinking: "But if the rich keep this advantage, the rich will get richer and richer, and the poor will get poorer and poorer, and after all, there are few rich people in the world, and there are many poor people, and the poor must be opposed, because only by reversing can the interests be redistributed again, which is also the most fundamental reason for the rise and fall of dynasties." Do you agree with this? ”
Chen Zilong looked at Wu Zheng in amazement, not knowing whether to agree or disagree.
Wu Zheng sighed: "Actually, with Mr.'s knowledge, he should have understood this matter a long time ago, but in the bureau, Mr. may be a fan of the authorities, or he may be a ...... Pretend not to know. There is a saying that you can never wake up a person who pretends to be asleep, and in my opinion, Mr. is the one who pretends to be asleep. ”
Chen Zilong's face suddenly turned red, and he said sharply: "But I have never thought of being corrupt and perverting the law, pretending to be public and selfish, and I have never used my influence to seek wealth for myself, let alone that I was once the first assistant and I was the ...... of ascending to heaven alone." ”
"Sometimes, the love of feathers and reputation is actually a kind of corruption." Wu Zheng said lightly.
Chen Zilong's flushed face suddenly subsided, and then gradually turned pale.
"For the ministers, to fight to get famous, there are ancients, especially in the Ming Dynasty. Since the beginning of Hongwu, the literati have been fighting for their own reputation, like moths to a fire, and they have forgotten that their reputation comes from the blasphemy of the prestige of the king, and they trample the prestige of the emperor on the soles of their feet to achieve their own goals. Does the gentleman approve of this? ”
Chen Zilong's face began to turn blue.
Wu Zheng was unimpressed, and continued: "During the period when Mr. was the head and assistant of the Yixing Dynasty, he really obeyed the law and devoted himself to the people, the king, the clan, and the world. But the people around Mr., can Mr. guarantee that they are as honest as Mr.? I want to ask sir, do you really not know what they are gathering around you and wanting? The hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit. Mr. I am afraid that he knows very well in his heart that what they want is the power in the hands of Mr., and then they will repay him with peach, and they will sing praises for Mr. ”
Chen Zilong's face turned blue to a terrifying degree.
Wu Zheng took a dose of fierce medicine, "It is said that with Mr.'s character and knowledge, he can be effective by Mr., and Wu Zheng should be upside down." But what I want to say is that you are not welcome in this king! ”
