Chapter Seventy-Five: Corporal Lixian
When did my father start reading this kind of book? Zhu Houzhao knows that my father used to read Confucian classics, and it seems that my father has also made progress! After flipping through the book, Zhu Houzhao smiled, he naturally knew what his father meant by giving him this book. Dad thinks that he should cultivate the art of the king, but many emperors of the Ming Dynasty have no one to teach the art of the emperor.
In fact, he has seen Han Feizi, of course, not in the previous life, but in this life, the more he looks at Zhu Houzhao, the more he feels that the ancestor is really powerful, and those brilliant sparks of thought are really worthy of learning and inheritance by future generations, such as the preparation of Han Feizi, Zhu Houzhao is really impressed. That article is about being an emperor, and you can't believe anyone.
Later, it is emphasized that the emperor cannot give power to his courtiers, so since the power cannot be ceded and the courtiers cannot be trusted, what should be done? Nature is the legal system, so Han Feizi is the master of the Legalist doctrine. Many of Han Fei's doctrines are not backward in later generations, and they require "abolishing the teachings of the ancestors" and "teaching the law". He stressed that when the "law" is formulated, it must be strictly enforced, and no one can be an exception, so that "the law is not expensive," "the punishment is not evaded by the minister, and the good is not spared."
These ideas are the later generations of "there is a law must be followed", "violations must be investigated", and "law enforcement must be strict", although there may be omissions in implementation, but it is a general direction.
In later generations, there is a very famous sentence, that is, the punishment is not a doctor, and the etiquette is not a concubine, in fact, this sentence is from the Western Han Dynasty book "Rites and Rites". The original words are the monarch's stroke, the doctor's stroke, the doctor's stroke, the scholar's stroke, and the courtesy. If the punishment is not a doctor, the prisoner should be treated justly, regardless of whether he is on the king's side or not.
Zheng Xuan of the Eastern Han Dynasty Zhuyun: The punishment does not respect the doctor, no matter if the foolish sage violates the law, his violation should be punished in the department, and it is all in the punishment book.
Of course, even if it is an execution, it must also leave a face, for example, after being convicted, do not use the criminal law of mutilating the limbs, but first choose or persuade them to judge themselves, so as to strengthen the courtiers; Secondly, "killed in the court" (killed in the court). If a nobleman with the same surname is guilty, he will be executed by the Dianshi and secretly assassinated in the suburbs (see "Zhou Li: Dianshi").
This is also the reason why many times in later generations saw the emperor executing his courtiers, basically giving white silk, or giving poisonous wine, not because of cruelty, but precisely because he gave you the dignity of a scholar.
It's just that this sentence was misinterpreted in the end, and it reached its peak in the Song Dynasty, and it was directly the same as the scholars, and basically rarely killed people, no matter what kind of crime it was, it was basically a demotion to an official, or a release. This is also the rampant scholars, the decline of imperial power is very great, Zhu Hou takes care of Han Feizi, and what he looks at is the part of the law.
As for the emperor's mental technique, Zhu Houzhao doesn't look at it much, in Zhu Houzhao's opinion, it is a small road, the general trend of the world, and setting off the general trend is the way of the emperor.
However, Zhu Houzhao also has his own experience, that is, why Legalism can't do Confucianism, because Legalism pays attention to the law, that is, everything must have rules, no matter what status, you must abide by it. Such a doctrine will never be supported by the ruling class, which is not only the emperor.
Whoever sits in the seat of the ruling class, who wants to be less restrictive and unpunished for mistakes, how can legislation be done?
Confucianism is different, if you want to be decent, you can't punish the doctor, you can't be courteous to the people, they think so, and they do the same. The most terrible thing is that the emperor also thinks so, because in this way, the emperor must also be decent, and there is no law in the world that can restrict Confucianism, of course, this is not the Confucianism of the Qin and Han dynasties, but after the demon reform.
The Confucians of the Qin and Han dynasties were all on the horse to lead the troops, dismount the herdsmen, and exalt the great unification and revenge, which were all strong and fierce doctrines and Confucian disciples.
With his hands behind his back, holding Han Feizi given to him by his father, Zhu Houzhao staggered back to Xianyang Palace, and as soon as he arrived at Xianyang Palace, Zhu Houzhao saw Liu Jin coming over.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, Lord Yang Yiqing Yang is here." Liu Jin bowed down and said after seeing Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao nodded, and then said, "Let him come in!" ”
For Yang Yiqing's impression, Zhu Houzhao has always been good, but his ending is not very good, and it can be said that the eunuch Zhang Yong got rid of Liu Jin with him, and he succeeded, which shows that this person is resourceful. When Zhang Yong was punished by Emperor Jiajing, he interceded for Zhang Yong to seek stability, proving that he was a trustworthy person.
In addition, Yang Yiqing is also a talent as an official, known as a prodigy when he was young, he participated in the township examination at the age of fourteen, and was recommended as a Hanlin Xiucai. Ming Xianzong ordered the cabinet to send teachers to teach him. Chenghua eight years of Renchen Kejinshi, awarded the middle school scholar. It can be said that Yang Yiqing has been deeply favored by the emperor since he was very young, and he can be a man and an official.
Many years later, Yang Yiqing was promoted to the position of Shanxi Provincial Inspectorate, changed to Shaanxi Deputy Envoy and Inspector, served in Shaanxi for eight years, and inspected the frontier war in his spare time. After that, he entered the dynasty, served as the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, and entered the Taichang Temple of Nanjing. In the fifteenth year of Hongzhi, due to the recommendation of Liu Daxia, he was promoted to the left deputy capital of the Imperial Palace, and served as the governor of Shaanxi, responsible for supervising the horse administration of Shaanxi.
In the original history, tens of thousands of Mongol troops invaded Guyuan, and Cao Xiong, the chief military officer, refused to send troops to help. Yang Yiqing then led a light cavalry from Pingliang to march day and night to resist the invasion and launch a surprise attack to repel the Mongol attack. With such a talent, how could Zhu Houzhao not be included in his command? This is a talent that Zhu Houzhao asked for from his father.
Zhu Houzhao has been eyeing him for a long time, and this time he was transferred from the governor of Shaanxi to the governor of Liaodong, in order to cooperate with Zhu Houzhao's military reform.
Hearing that Yang Yiqing was coming, Zhu Houzhao immediately smiled and said directly to Liu Jin: "Go, the palace will go to greet you in person." ”
Corporal Lixian's set, Zhu Houzhao has long been familiar with it, he is now the prince, and he will only be praised for doing this, so he doesn't feel embarrassed at all. You must know that Cao Cao has really a lot of people who surrendered, relying on two tricks, releasing his shackles in person, and burying him in tears, Zhu Houzhao naturally can't use these two tricks, but Zhu Houzhao can take them out in person.
Cao Cao greeted Xu Yu barefoot, that is, to express his attention, Zhu Houzhao naturally did the same, but he didn't have to be barefoot, just take it out.
As Zhu Houzhao walked out, he soon saw a thin middle-aged man standing not far away, although he looked thin, he was very energetic, with a sword at his waist. Although the literati saber in this era is not new, but the saber is mostly an ornament, but Zhu Houzhao can see that Yang Yiqing's saber is really a sword that can kill.
