After a debate, everyone thought that the little emperor was fighting with him, but he was not one of the people who were not vigilant, Ma Tingluan recalled after lunch that what His Majesty said in the morning seemed to mean something, he couldn't sit still anymore, so he went to the next door to find Deng Guangjian to talk to him, but found that Wang Yinglin was also walking this way, and the two looked at each other and smiled and walked hand in hand.

"Bohou, what do you think of the detailed discussion with Your Majesty today?" Ma Tingluan asked Wang Yinglin as he walked.

"Xiang Zhong, I thought that although His Majesty was young, he should not be regarded by ordinary children. Although His Majesty's words today are a bit biased, they are not unreasonable, and it can be seen that he has also studied a lot of scriptures and history. Wang Yinglin replied.

"I also feel the same way, Your Majesty quotes scriptures and classics at your fingertips, and today's topic is not already arranged, but he can talk about some truths eloquently, even if he has studied scriptures and history for more than ten years, it is difficult to do it!" Ma Tingluan nodded.

"You must know that the governor is a double jinshi who is both civil and military; Jiang Shangshu is a famous family, a three-phase family, family history; In addition, Deng Zhongfu is also an immortal talent, and he has studied classics and history very well. How could your majesty have been much worse if they taught you! Wang Yinglin said.

"It's true that a famous teacher and a high apprentice are not bad, but Xiangzhong, can you find that Your Majesty does not follow the words of the saint, but has many doubts about the saint, but this is not my blessing!" Ma Tingluan sighed lightly.

"I am not so pessimistic, how can a king who only promises take on the responsibility of restoring the kingdom at a time when the country is ruined. And what His Majesty said does have a source, today's Confucianism is no longer ancient Confucianism, even the classics have been cut and turned beyond recognition through the ages! Wang Yinglin smiled.

"Well, now the dynasties respect Confucianism, Confucianism has to make changes to adapt to the situation, with today's Your Majesty's words can also be seen that there are many dissatisfaction with what the scholars do, I heard that Your Majesty came to Boao this time to avoid the feast, but I don't know the root cause, so blind and blind and Your Majesty dispute, I am afraid that it is a lose-lose situation." Ma Tingluan said worriedly.

"Yes, now Meng Yuan treats scholars as if he has abandoned them, if my dynasty provokes His Majesty again and makes him wary of Confucianism, maybe the disaster of the pre-Qin period will be repeated!" Wang Yinglin listened and pondered for a moment.

The two looked at each other and were worried, although both of them were scholars from the imperial examination, but they have also gone through many years of experience in officialdom, compared to those nerds who read the scriptures and history hard, opened their mouths are the words of saints, and they must act benevolently and righteously, and they have a personal experience of the cruelty of political struggle. Understand that whether any school can become the dominant or not is inseparable from the support of the imperial court, in other words, it is also the emperor's likes and dislikes, there are too many examples of this kind in the past dynasties, and the rise of Confucianism is also a history of blood and tears!

Even during the Spring and Autumn period, when Confucius was still alive, Confucianism was not the mainstream, but was only one of many schools of thought, and for a long time it had no place in the eyes of the rulers. Take Uncle Sun Tong, who was called 'Confucianism' by the Western Han Dynasty, for example, he also served as a doctor in the Qin Dynasty, of course, his doctor in the Qin Dynasty relied on his "Yin and Yang family" business to mix, or a doctor after burning books and pit Confucianism.

Once, Qin II summoned doctors and Confucian scholars because of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's rebellion, and more than 30 of them were indignant, scolded Chen Sheng and Wu Guang for rebellion, and asked the emperor to send troops. Unexpectedly, the second emperor got angry. Shusun Tong came out and said: What you said is not right, now that the country is unified, the swords and guns are put into the warehouse, and the horses are put in Nanshan, it is clearly a peaceful and prosperous era, we have wise leaders and a complete system, as long as cadres at all levels are conscientious, who dares to rebel? It's clear that a few scattered thieves are messing around, and it's over if the magistrate catches and kills them.

Qin II was happy at this time, and asked one by one whether it was a rebellion or a thief, and anyone who said that it was a rebellion was arrested by the imperial historian, and the crime was "inappropriate", that is, you should not say that you have to say it; What about thieves? Smash your job and be fired. There is only one uncle and grandson who has been awarded "twenty horses of silk and one clothes" for meritorious service, and when he returns to his residence, a group of colleagues have damaged him, why are you so flattering! Uncle Sun Tong replied: You don't know, my brother almost fell into the tiger's mouth. Then he hurriedly retreated.

During the time of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, a Confucian scholar of Yuan Gusheng became a doctor in the imperial court because of his intensive study of the Book of Songs, and once had an academic debate with a scholar of the Huang Lao School named Huang Sheng in front of the emperor, and the theme was "Tangwu Revolution". Speaking of 'Huang Lao's technique' is not the Taoist who respects the emperor and Lao Tzu as people think at present, in fact, the core is the imperial technique of dominating the upper and lower, and it is not cold to Zhuangzi and Liezi who are hidden from the dust.

The institutional pattern of governing the country in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty was similar to that of the Qin Dynasty, and Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, who was known as respecting Huang Lao and being quiet and inactive, was also the same as Qin Shi Huang, and governed the country on the basis of Xiao He's deleted "Nine Chapters of Han Law". In this debate initiated by Emperor Tang of the Han Dynasty, everyone knows that Shang Tang, King Wu of Zhou, one was the courtier of the Xia Dynasty who overthrew Xia Wei, and the other was the courtier of the Shang Dynasty who overthrew the Shang Dynasty.

Huang Sheng said that Tang and Wu were the rebels who killed the monarch and rebelled, which was wrong. Yuan Gusheng retorted: There is no way to build a country, and everyone in the world is focused on Tang and Wu, and Tang and Wu are supported by the hearts of the people in the world to kill Ji and Wu, and they are also supported by the hearts of the people to establish the country, of course, it is right to conform to the mandate of heaven; Huang Sheng pointed out: No matter how broken the hat is, you have to wear it on your head, and no matter how new your shoes are, you must also wear them on your feet, which is called the difference between up and down. There is no way to fool around; No matter how great Tang and Wu are, they are still ministers. The monarch did something wrong, and the courtiers did not admonish Kuang Zheng to respect the Son of Heaven, but used the mistake as a reason to kill the monarch and change the dynasty to become the king, what is this not a rebellion?

In this debate, Yuan Gusheng held the Confucian position, the monarch has no way, should be punished, and he must be punished with confidence. And Huang Sheng's point of view is that Huang Lao faction, which is about distinguishing between the upper and lower levels and respecting the monarch unconditionally, which is also consistent with the Legalists. In the final analysis, both Legalism and Huang Lao are vested interests, and whoever is the monarch will be on his side. And the traditional position of pre-Qin Confucianism held by Yuan Gusheng is, the monarch is not a thing, I want to get you too!

From this point of view, as political veterans, Ma Tingluan and Wang Yinglin did not understand that Qin Shi Huang's political hostility to Confucianism was not just a difference between "feudal" and "county", but a fundamental ideological and worldview difference. Therefore, although in the history books, you can see Chun Yuyue crying and shouting for the retro pedantic hard bones of the feudal princes, and you can also see Shusun Tong serving Qin Shi Huang as a doctor, but whether it is soft or hard, the ruler's attitude towards them is not to rely on them, but to "advocate excellence and save it" to tease you.

Therefore, in such a political environment, the Confucian scholars who could mix and could not mix were all lying in the tiger's mouth with half of their bodies, just to see if the tiger wanted to close its mouth. The reason why the rulers after the Han Dynasty respected Confucianism was also because they had to adapt to the situation, either secretly revise the classics, or innovate Confucianism in a heavy way to meet the needs of the rulers. The Song Dynasty vigorously elevated the status of the scholars, and at the beginning it was nothing more than the two powers encroaching on each other to prevent the warriors from taking advantage of their power......

"Lin'an fell, His Majesty was only five years old when he left the city, and according to His Majesty, he was enlightened in the palace. Later, when he was evacuating Quanzhou, His Majesty mistakenly boarded the plague ship in order to save Ni Dutong, and it happened that Governor Liu was also on the ship and taught His Majesty for more than a month. Later, I, Jiang Shangshu and Governor Ying were ordered by the Queen Mother to enter the palace to teach His Majesty, and Lu Xiang spoke about "University" for His Majesty when he was in Yashan! Deng Guangjian was very strange, Ma Tingluan and Wang Yinglin came and didn't say a few words, they asked about His Majesty's mentorship, and he made his debut with what he knew.

"Oh, that's to teach Your Majesty with Father, Zongbao and Zhongfu!" Ma Tingluan continued, "Then what books has Your Majesty read again?" ”。

"Your Majesty is gifted and intelligent, and the governor should teach Your Majesty the way of the Holy King, Jiang Shangshu will teach the art of war and tactics, and I will explain the scriptures and history to Your Majesty. And His Majesty has a wide range of knowledge, not only the history and military books, but also interested in hundreds of crafts and travelogues! Deng Guangjian always felt a little awkward when he listened to their questions, but he still frowned and replied truthfully.

"The three of them are all great Confucians in the world, so why does Your Majesty reject the saints so much?" Ma Tingluan asked puzzled.

"What does Mr. Xiang Zhong mean, is that I have not taught Your Majesty well?" Deng Guangjian is not the angry young man who just entered the officialdom, and the officials of the past two years now understand that there is no absolute black and white, and his brain is much more active, but his upright temper has not changed, and when he heard Ma Tingluan's words, he immediately asked.

"Zhongfu don't misunderstand, Xiang Zhong definitely didn't mean this, but His Majesty Jue seems to be dissatisfied with the scholars, we don't understand, I just want to ask Zhongfu to explain his doubts!" Wang Yinglin saw that he was annoyed and hurriedly explained.

"If you had His Majesty's experience that day, you would have doubted it!" Deng Guangjian sighed and said.

"I want to hear it!" Ma Tingluan and Wang Yinglin arched their hands.

"When His Majesty withdrew from Lin'an that day, there were only a few people in the palace who went to court, so that the Empress Dowager issued a decree to reprimand, you must know that the Great Song Dynasty has been a hundred years old, but when employing people, they escaped cleanly!" Deng Guangjian sighed lightly and continued, "When Your Majesty evacuated Quanzhou, he was separated from Emperor Jing Yan, but along the way, he was able to escape by virtue of righteousness and courage to protect each other with death. But Chen Yizhong wanted to abandon those righteous bravery, so that His Majesty clashed with him, and did not hesitate to put His Majesty in danger; His Majesty died on the plague ship, and then relied on a group of dying soldiers to repel the pursuing enemy army. ”

Then when Jiazi Town rested, Chen Yizhong still did not forget to take revenge, His Majesty Kaifu not only used customs coupons as food, but also only allocated more than 20 old ships and thousands of volunteers to come to Qiongzhou, but His Majesty relied on these remnants and volunteers to defeat the enemy in Qiongzhou and gain a foothold. During this period, Zeng Yuanzi seized power, wanting to seize His Majesty's military power and hold Qiongzhou hostage. ”

"When Emperor Jingyan was seriously ill and in difficulty in going to the court, Chen Yizhong abandoned the king and ran away. His Majesty succeeded to the throne and arrived at Yashan, but he was regarded as a puppet, and he took strict precautions, completely ignoring the danger of the situation, but the scholars did nothing in the face of Zhang Shijie and let him gain power. After defeating Zhang Hongfan, after His Majesty moved the Xing Dynasty to Qiongzhou, he still made every effort to resettle the officials of the Xing Dynasty under the extremely tight financial situation, but they did not think of reciprocating, but the corpse vegetarian meal caused slang and local turmoil, which made His Majesty quite disappointed! ”

"Well, since I was a child, all Your Majesty has seen is the betrayal and power of scholars, and it is inevitable that you will be vigilant. And the martial artist has repeatedly defended himself when he is in danger, and the contrast between the two is embarrassing! Although he had already made a name for himself, these things had nothing to do with him, but he still said with a shameful face.

"Yes, Your Majesty has undergone great changes at a young age, and the scholars have disappointed him, and now it is commendable to still be able to Lixian Corporal!" Wang Yinglin also said with emotion, he felt that if he encountered so many heartwarming things, he would inevitably have some ideas.

"Two gentlemen, Meng Yuan destroyed Jin and attacked Songzhong, and there were no less than thousands of scholars who took refuge in him, and they made plans for them to capture Jiangnan, but why they were finally abandoned by Kublai Khan, I must have thoughts!" Deng Guangjian saw that the attitude of the two had changed, and said.

"Sage Yun: Although the king can order his ministers, he must not act in vain against reason; Although the ministers are so common to the king, they cannot bend to the way. The monarchs and ministers of this dynasty have their own occupations and cannot invade each other; After Meng Yuan entered the Central Plains, he regarded the scholars as slaves, and the ministers became the servants of the king, and even the ministers of the palace also needed to serve in the palace. For the minister, it is natural that life and death are all in one thought! Wang Yinglin sighed and said.

"That's right, Your Majesty just has a slight suspicion about the scholars, which has provoked us to admonish, but the comparison between the two sides is also a clear monarch!" Ma Tingluan said with a wry smile.

"Then what is the real Mingjun?" Deng Guangjian listened and asked rhetorically.

Ma Tingluan and Wang Yinglin glanced at each other, this question is the node that triggered the controversy between today's monarchs and ministers. And they understand that there are many emperors in history who have many sayings such as Ming Jun, Faint Monarch, Tyrant, Yong Jun, and Virtuous Monarch. It can be roughly divided into: diligent in government affairs; Regardless of the thing; those who are blind to things; Founding monarch.

But these things do not mean that it is not possible to distinguish whether the monarch is mediocre or not, if the monarch is in a prosperous age, you have nothing to do, others will say that you are working hard, if you do nothing, you will say that you are recuperating and recuperating, and if you go to war, you will say that you have great ambitions to open up the country. But if the national situation was very bad at that time, if you were foolish, you would say that you disturbed the court, if you didn't do anything, you would be useless, and if you still fought a war, it would disrupt the people's livelihood and bring disaster to the country and the people.

Tyrants, there are many of them, and it stands to reason that basically tyrants accompany every dynasty, especially the five dynasties and ten kingdoms. However, the most well-known are Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Yang of Sui, these people have a strong sense of individuality, but they are more or less relatively weak in morality and ethics, and there are too many mediocre monarchs, as long as they are not famous. Unlike tyrants, faint kings often listen to the opinions of others and are used without their own will, causing the country to fall into chaos and stop development......
