Although Zhu Youxiao's words are so, the meaning is obvious, that is, I still don't know what people in the world think?

I can't say that. So what should you do as a courtier?

The answer is simple, that is, to let His Majesty know what the people of the world think.

As for who this person in the world is, it will naturally not be those people from the Donglin Party, but people recruited by Wei Zhongxian. What the people Wei Zhongxian found would say, then there was no suspense about this, basically let them say whatever they wanted.

Looking at the back of Wei Zhongxian leaving, Zhu Youxiao sat back in the wheelchair, stretched out his hand and gently tapped the armrest, the expression on his face was very flat.

In fact, Zhu Youxiao has already made up his mind in his heart, that is, he is going to attack the Donglin Party, and he is going to start cleaning up people.

Originally, Zhu Youxiao wanted to see if there were useful people in the Donglin Party, such as Yang Lian, after all, he was one of the six gentlemen of Donglin in history. It turned out that Yang Lian was completely useless.

This Yang Lian faced Wei Zhongxian, so he was naturally shouting and shouting to kill, and he could give his life to protect his own way.

But in other respects, it seems lackluster and helpless. It has been so long since the case of Xiong Tingbi was framed, and it has not been interrogated until now, and it is helpless to retract a confession.

cherishing his reputation, not using the punishment, and having no other way to find out the truth, and at the same time compromising with his own habits, and having a strong view of the door, such Yang Lian is naturally useless.

In the Donglin Party, Yang Lian can't use it, so who can? Zhu Youxiao was in no mood or had the idea to screen them one by one.

In that case, then simply knock them down.

Of course, this defeat is not only a physical annihilation, but also a mental annihilation, and Daming needs new ideas.

"It seems that I can only go farther and farther on the road of the faint king!" Zhu Youxiao sighed helplessly, and leaned back.

The ideological controversy in the late Ming Dynasty was actually a very important matter, and it was called the New Trend of Thought in the late Ming Dynasty.

This new trend of thought is closely related to the changes in the political and economic situation and cultural trend in the middle and late Ming Dynasty.

From the beginning of the ideological shackles of the science of mind and science, the economic basis of the scholars of the Ming Dynasty, especially in the Jiangnan region, was no longer a simple agricultural economy, but a collection of large landlords, slave owners, handicraftsmen and merchants of bankrupt peasants.

Their political demands inevitably have the characteristics of de-regulation and weak administration, but because the system of the Ming Dynasty itself determined that the form of commodity economy in the Middle Ages was limited, all the wealth of these scholars and doctors was limited to land, and the larger the gap in the state's finances, the more taxes were raised, and all taxes were passed on to ordinary peasants.

At such an urgent time, new ideas inevitably need to emerge, and the style of lecturing prevailed, and the Donglin Party came into being.

Politically, they advocate honest and honest governance, meritocracy, and the promotion of talents. As for who is talented? That's their people, of course.

In terms of taxation, they advocated not competing with the people for profit, collecting less taxes, and collecting taxes only from homesteaders. The heavier the taxes on the yeoman peasants, the faster they went bankrupt, and the faster they went bankrupt, the stronger the landlord bureaucracy brought by these people of the Donglin Party.

When the time comes, the smoke will rise, the world will swing, and then everyone will be finished together.

But even if they knew that this was the case, these party members could not control their own hands. If you put money in front of you, will you not make it? If you can save money on taxes, will you save it?

Not to mention this era, the people of later generations will not have this consciousness.

If you want to clean up these landlords and gentry, you can only rely on strict laws and power. If you don't pay it, then I will collect it.

That's what these people are afraid of, so they seize the power of the country, put the army under their own supervision, put the imperial power in a cage, denounce the eunuchs as heretics, and beat the nobles into waste!

When everything is done, it seems that the time to enjoy the fruits of victory.

The world is shaking, the country is overturned, and it is replaced by a kind of alien rule under high pressure, and it is the right thing for everyone to learn to kowtow honestly.

Zhu Youxiao thought of these things in his mind, and suddenly laughed, and laughed so loudly that he coughed.

In the laughter, it is both mockery and sadness.

After a while, Zhu Youxiao stood up and walked to the door, looked at the sky in the distance, and sighed softly.

As the so-called murder kills the heart, if you want to destroy the Donglin Party, you can't just kill people, unless you come to Yangzhou for three days like the Manchu Qing Dynasty, completely cleanse the world, and kill all opponents.

Zhu Youxiao wouldn't do that, because it didn't fit his ideas.

Da Ming is facing the earth of the colonial era, and it is impossible for him to reduce his strength like this.

Another key point is that Zhu Youxiao can't do this kind of thing in Yangzhou for three days.

The Manchus could do this, but they couldn't. Because one is an aggressor, the other is a ruler, the same thing, different people do it, then he is different.

However, Zhu Youxiao also has a way, the so-called killing and punishing the heart, if you want to destroy the Donglin Party, then you have to dig up their roots, start from their thoughts, and directly dig up their ancestral graves.

Zhu Youxiao is naturally no stranger to ideological polemics and Taoist disputes.

Whether it is Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in China, "depose a hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism alone", or the Renaissance abroad, these later generations have read it.

Depose the hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism alone, although there is a meaning of Confucianism to put gold on itself, but you can also do the same.

Which one to choose?

That's very simple, the Taishan school of mind, specifically Li Zhen's thoughts.

Li Zhen himself is dead, and he was forced to die by Lixue.

Now it is Zhu Youxiao's turn to use Li Zhen's ideas to force science and the Donglin Party to death.

Li Zhen's ideas are in line with the historical trend and the general trend, and once they are promoted by the royal family, they will definitely be unstoppable by the science and the Donglin Party.

As for why Zhu Youxiao chose Li Zhen's thoughts, the answer is very simple, because Li Zhen is sought after.

Even if he dies, he still has heirs, die-hard fans, and someone is defending him. Even in the last years of Chongzhen, there have always been his dead fans.

These people will become Zhu Youxiao's people, and they will ruthlessly bite the Donglin Party.

The Qi, Zhejiang, and Chu parties are the same as the Donglin Party, but the descendants of the Taishan faction of Xinxue are different from the Donglin Party and the Qi, Zhejiang, and Chu Party, and they are very powerful. The only thing that the emperor could not accept was their discourse on place.

For example, Li Zhen believes that according to the principle of the unity of all things, there is no distinction between the high and the low in society, and the common people are not inferior, and they have their own worthy of honor; The nobles of the princes are not noble, and they also have their lowliness.

He also said that "the ruler of heaven thought that it was for the people", which means that the reason why God established a monarch was for the sake of all the people, not the destiny of heaven.

Such an idea is not liked by the emperor, and it is impossible for the emperor to accept it.
