Chapter 663: Ming Controversy
Some people may say that a book compiled by Zhu Yuanzhang more than 200 years ago was not taken seriously as early as the Jiajing period, how can it still have such great power?
But you don't know that this edict is sometimes a pile of rotten paper, but if it is used in the right place, its power is no less than 100,000 soldiers and horses.
In those years, this edict was in the hands of the righteous men and gentlemen in the court, but the famous foolish and absurd emperor Zhu Houzhao of Ming Wuzong Zhengde was dumbfounded.
The emperor, who left classic repertoire such as "Dragon and Phoenix" for the opera world, and left the leopard room, a building similar to the Lutai star-picking tower for the literati to whip and criticize, left this evaluation in the history books compiled by civil officials: "I want to be proud of myself with martial arts." ”
"It is fortunate to use the handle of people to manage themselves, and the ministers of Bingjun to make up for Tho Kuang to save them is to be disordered by the dynasty, not to be in danger."
"If you inherit the legacy of filial piety, be cautious, and have the exercise of the Lord, then the name of Cathay will be finished, and it will be important for future generations!"
The general meaning of these sentences can be summarized as follows:
"Wu Zong, don't always want to make some big news by fighting."
"How capable do you think you are, it's not thanks to our literati who have not been played badly"
"If you can cooperate with us as safely and securely as your father, you will definitely not be criticized by us like this."
The emperor personally killed a Mongolian cavalry in the Battle of Yingxian, but the total result was only to kill sixteen Mongolian cavalrymen, and commanded the Xuanda Border Army to exterminate Liu Liu, Liu Qi and other thieves who were wandering in the hinterland of the Central Plains, and quelled the rebellion of King Ning.
However, it was in Nanjing that year, after the rebellion of King Ning was quelled, Zhu Houzhao ordered someone to ask Qiao Yu, the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department and the Nanjing garrison at that time, for the keys to the city gates of Nanjing, which was the prelude to taking over the defense of Nanjing. However, this Qiao Shangshu sent Zhu Houzhao back with a big edict.
Although the current role and situation have changed, the gentlemen of Donglin are not Qiao Yu, and there is no support from the elders of the Central Cabinet behind them, and there are no eunuchs like Zhang Yong around Zhu Yousong, but in the eyes of civil officials, Li Shouhan is a vulgar martial artist like Jiang Bin, and he is a traitor.
However, in any case, the Ming Dynasty advertised itself as ruling the world with benevolence and filial piety, and the gentlemen of Donglin kept saying that they would be the ancestral system, just like the modern public intellectuals opened and closed their mouths tonight, we are all Americans and a virtue.
Although the various stinking and shameless double standards of modern intellectuals have reached a point where they can fill in the Mariana Trench and make it as high as Mount Everest, their ancestors still need a fig leaf. It has not reached their level of blue and better than blue. You haven't seen that a certain big mouth that once shocked the world with a "Flower of Evil" Weibo quickly changed the direction of the wind after the stone mortar was big, and changed from the flower of evil to the red flag bearer.
Seeing that Ma Shiying sacrificed the big killer weapon, there was the minister whose brain turned fast, and he secretly said in his heart: "Bitter!" ”
Sure enough, Ma Shiying took out a passage from the big edict, and completely sent those Kejiaju people into hell.
In the fifteenth year of Hongwu (1382), the Ministry of Rites promulgated 12 school prohibitions, prohibiting students from interfering in lawsuits and talking about military and civilian affairs. And carved stone placed on the left side of the Minglun Hall of the School Palace, called the lying tablet. In the prohibition of lying on the monument, it is stipulated that only workers, farmers, merchants, and Jia are allowed to put forward opinions on major national affairs, but students (students who are currently studying) are not allowed to give opinions, and students must do what the teacher says, and they are not allowed to make their own opinions or express their opinions. ("All the benefits and diseases of the military and the people can be said by the workers, peasants and businessmen, but only the living people cannot be advised.") Students listen to the teacher's lectures, do not have their own opinions, and argue in vain. ”)
Look! Look! I, Emperor Gao, the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, have long had a will, and it is absolutely not okay for students to discuss the government in vain! These people harassed in front of the mausoleum of Emperor Taizu Gao, and their sin was one. Holding high banners and slogans to slander important ministers in the DPRK is the second crime. With these two major crimes, don't say that the officers and soldiers of the twelve towns of the Nanyue Army just moved their fists and feet, and they should be strictly investigated, it is okay for these people to raid their homes and destroy their homes!
Thinking of the current patrol Yushi who is famous enough to treat children's crying and urinating kang in various parts of the Yangtze River, the officials present couldn't help but feel cold air on their backs, and they were covered in cold sweat. The set of rhetoric that they had thought of was suddenly thrown into the garbage heap. Forget it! Let's protect ourselves! Leave the green mountains without worrying about the lack of firewood, as for the burned firewood, then I can't care so much. Let's just keep our house from being raided first!
"Alas! How dare people not bow their heads when they are under the eaves! "Because of the two powerful traitorous forces that hold the power of the cabinet, the powerful gun and the money bag and rice pocket in Jiangnan, all the righteous men and gentlemen present bowed their heads.
If Mephistopheles had the means to enter their inner world, at this moment, the hearts of these people were singing this paragraph impassionedly: "The slanderers are in charge of the Han Dynasty, and the Chu and Han are fighting for guns and knives." Grandpa Gao's Xianyang ascended to the great treasure and unified the mountains and rivers and enjoyed Tang Yao. So far, there is a traitorous Cao Cao, who bullied the Son of Heaven and suppressed the bureaucrats. I have the heart to smash the thief for the master, and I lack a murderous knife in my hand. The chairman sat on Cao Cao, and sat on the civil and military officials. New Year's Day and thieves are ominous, pretending to be crazy and scolding traitors. I took off the blue shirt, and the ragged shirt swayed. Ran up boldly, and the children under the tent made a lot of noise. You two don't have to laugh, there are generations of ancients who listen to the roots and seedlings. In the past, the prince used to fish, and Zhang Liang served on the bridge. suffered as a person, and took off his blue shirt and changed into a purple robe. The two of you have made a mistake, and Hugh treats Huzi as a tanuki. One day, when the luck arrives, he draws his sword to cut off the seabed. Cultivating the Tao is my daydream reversed, and when the time comes, I will go to the sky. The clothes on his body were taken off, and he was naked and heroic. Running up in anger, your prime minister will condemn me to the guilt. I will come to the east corridor and see what the traitors have done to me. ”
(Smack!) Someone threw over a brick, and smashed it so that the unkind author had a gold star in his eyes. "Nonsense! The lack of a murderous knife in his hand is a singing segment of drumming and scolding Cao Youheng in Peking Opera, how can people in the late Ming Dynasty sing the drama of the middle of the Qing Dynasty? "Alas! Slow down, slow down! Not to mention that the last people sang the opera of the middle Qing Dynasty, and the Han Dynasty people ate Qing Dynasty dishes! Countless starting point gods are masters of the Five Ghosts Carrying Method, and I just advanced the Peking Opera repertoire of the Hui class into Beijing by more than 200 years! )
With the arrival of troops from the Twelfth Town and the Eighth Town, the tide in Nanjing gradually quieted down, and the scholars and pseudo-readers from all over the country began to review their homework and prepare for the upcoming Enke exam.
The city of Nanjing was quiet for the time being, but Shandong in the north of the Yangtze River was in turmoil.
At this moment in Shandong, the forces of all parties and factions are intertwined and bizarre.
Lu Mahong, Liao Dongzhi, Fan Xiaozeng and others who are in charge of the Ming Dynasty control the Denglai Qing Sanfu, that is, the Jiaodong area, relying on the natural harbor in this area, and constantly obtain the supply of soldiers and materials through the sea channel. Wu Xing, who accepted the appointment of the Nanyue Army, was in the Linyi area, controlling the Yimeng Mountains, but the land in this area was barren and the people were poor, although there was no shortage of soldiers, but the food and materials and military salaries needed to rely on the support of Lu Mahong.
To the north, Abatai Wang Ke and others controlled the area from Dezhou to Jinan, and they were called the old pigtail soldiers by the common people of Shandong, or the Tartars of Liaodong. There is the old and the new, and this so-called new refers to the troops of Zhang Linghu, Wu Fengxian and others, these newly shaved and cleared guys control a large area of fertile land from Jinan to Qufu and Luzhong. They are also known as local tartars by Shandong villagers.
In addition to the two factions and four distinct forces, there are also large and small forces entrenched in the county, towns and villages, they give full play to the characteristics of the grass on the wall, and the wind is that side and fall to that side, not only each family has the military flags of the Qing army and the Nanyue army, but also has the official documents and letters of appointment of all parties. Even ordinary soldiers have a few turbans of different colors on their bodies, which are ready to eat ready-made ones when they win on the battlefield.
Linyi is now the common residence of Lu Mahong and Wu Xing.
In the study, Wu Xing's face was as gloomy as iron, and the dull and depressing atmosphere made the subordinate leave very consciously, and only at this time did the subordinate feel that Jing Crimson, who was usually a shrew, was still useful. After hearing the news, Jing Shenhong took the maid to the study, but looking at Wu Xing's face, Jing Shenhong also hesitated for a long time before she said half-coquettishly: "Master, who is messing with you?" Tell the concubine, and the concubine will find a way to give you anger. Wu Xing saw that Jing was crimson, and his face was a little better, but his tone was still not good: "What's the use of telling you?" This person is my immediate boss, and he is a strong soldier, and it is easy to take my head, what can I do? Jing Shenhong smiled slightly: "Could it be that Luma Hong?" Then the old man is wrong this time, if it is the Liao winter solstice, I will persuade the old man to endure this breath, but if it is that Lu Ma Hong, there are many ways to concubine the body. However, the concubine still doesn't know when the old man is angry, and this revenge is always in the name of shortcomings and righteousness. ”
Hearing this, Wu Xing looked at Jing Shenhong with interest and said, "Do you have a way?" Don't joke with me. It's nothing to talk to you about, but let's talk about it first, your method is not allowed to hurt the peace, and it is not allowed to affect others, otherwise I will not spare you. Jing Shenhong came to Wu Xing's side with a smile, rubbed Wu Xing's shoulders skillfully and said, "Don't worry, master, I still have a sense of proportion." ”
Wu Xing nodded comfortably, and then told the story of the incident. After the Battle of Dengzhou, Zhang Xiaohu persuaded Lu Mahong to return to Nanzhong immediately, on the grounds that the situation in Shandong was dangerous, and Lu Mahong's status was noble and it was not appropriate to get involved. But Lu Mahong refused, she said to Zhang Xiaohu with red eyes, her husband's revenge has not been avenged, and the concubine is a crippled person, although it is a pity to die. After several hard persuasions, Zhang Xiaohu had no choice but to give up. In order to show his determination to resolutely resist the Qing Dynasty to the end, Lu Mahong did not even place his station at Qingdaokou, which was convenient for defense and retreat, but chose the administrative center of Wuxing, Linyi. Of course, in addition to the reasons on the table, Lu Mahong also has another layer of consideration, after Shandong fell into a melee, Wu Xing is also the side of the fisherman's profit, and the territory of people and horses has grown greatly, although it is not yet able to compete with the Nanyue army, but it has faintly formed a semi-divided situation. If its system is based on the Ming Dynasty, it is fine, but Wu Xing is engaged in the Shanzhai Nanzhong system, and the Qin Law School controls the administrative and cadre training system at the grassroots level. Therefore, if you want to persist for a long time, you have to face this situation.
Therefore, knowing that she came to Linyi to make the Shandong Qin Law School faction represented by Wu Xing very unhappy, she still took her own soldiers and some Nanyue soldiers and horses and stationed them in Linyi. The reason is naturally high-sounding, Linyi is located in southern Lunan, which can echo the Nanyue army in Xuzhou and be horns of each other.
When you come, you will naturally sound firecrackers and set off firecrackers, gongs and drums will be noisy, and thousands of people will welcome you. After the excitement, naturally they still take care of each other, of course, Wu Xing did not dare to slack off in his daily politeness, but it was just a daily salute. Anyway, to be honest, there are not many cases where Wu Xing and Lu Mahong have the opportunity to come into contact. Wu Xing's main work is two, the same is the daily administration of the Yimeng Mountain area, if according to the Ming system, it is enough to keep Wu Xing busy, but Wu Xing has always been a copycat, so he selected some people from the Qin Law School and organized an administrative team to deal with daily chores, and he only needs to review the most important matters.
And the time freed up, Wu Xing did not choose to mix in the pile of fat powder, but went to the Qin Law Hall to teach new students as if he was in the camp. In fact, the current Qin Law School is far from the time when it could only recruit skirt hairpins, since the mass grave incident, families above the level of self-cultivated farmers and middle peasants have sent out their young sons and grandchildren, some of them are trying to have a future, and some are trying to draw a line with the anti-thieves. In short, the new students of the current Qin Law School are generally literate and hyphenated, and there are even many who have passed the Xiucai examination.
In the face of these people, the matter of literacy in the past can naturally be omitted. Therefore, Wu Xing chose to teach them some articles directly to strengthen their ideological work.
"Fuyi barbarian Rong Di, called the four yi, the system of nine services, the land is in the wilderness. The meaning of "Spring and Autumn" is all summer inside and Yidi outside. It is known for its incomprehensible language, different coins, strange laws and customs, and different types; Or outside the region, the surface of mountains and rivers, rugged rivers and valleys, separated from the Chinese soil, do not invade, do not intrude, do not add Zhengshuo, so it is said that "the Son of Heaven has a way, guarding in Siyi". Yuping Jiutu, while Xirong is narrating. His temperament is greedy, fierce and unkind, and among the four evils, Rong Di is very much. If you are weak, you will be afraid, and if you are strong, you will rebel. Although there is a virtuous and holy world, the king of great virtue, Xian failed to lead with Tonghua, and with kindness and softness. When it is strong, it is tired of the ghost side with Yin's Gaozong, there is King Wen of Zhou and suffers from Kunyi and Qiang, Gaozu is trapped in Baideng, and Xiaowen is in the hegemony. and its weakness, Zhou Gong came to the nine translations of the tribute, Zhongzong Na Shan Yu Dynasty, to Yuan Cheng Wei, and Ju Siyi Bin Suit. It's already working. Therefore, the Huns begged to defend the border fortress, and Hou Ying Chen could not, only to bend the knee and not to surrender. It is to have the king of the Tao to shepherd Yi Di also, but to be prepared, the royal is constant, although the style is stubborn, and the border city is not relaxed; For the thieves**, and the armor does not add expeditions, hoping that the territory will be safe, and the territory will not be invaded. ”
Although the cultural level of this group of students is not low, they are still confused in the face of the articles recited by Wu Xing. This article is not found in the Four Books and Five Classics, nor is it a recommended book of the Ming Emperor, but the meaning is clear to them. To put it simply, doesn't it mean that Yi Barbarian Rong Di is not a human being! The students agree with this too much, since Chongzhen ascended the throne in Shandong, Dongyu can come and go whenever he wants, and every time he comes, he brings war and leaves ruins when he leaves.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that this article was really written and the more serious I listened. After reciting the full text, Rao is Wu Xing often lectures, and his mouth is dry, he took a sip of the tea on the table, and then continued: "Fellow students, I guess you must be wondering, this article is not in the scientific examination, who wrote it?" I don't blame you for this, the person who wrote this article was an ancient, and he didn't have a scientific expedition at that time. He is not a descendant of Confucius, and he doesn't talk about saving heavenly principles and destroying people's desires, so naturally he doesn't see it in the classics. But this article is word for word. Chinese Yidi, if the cold and summer yin and yang, are very different. My Chinese civilization is still courteous, and Yidi has a human face and a beast's heart. This is true not only of the Qin, Han, Wei and Jin dynasties, but also today. Many of you may only know that Donglu is cruel and greedy, but they don't know that when Donglu was beaten by North Korea, there was no place for Donglu, and it was the Ming Dynasty who took them in and let them establish three guards in Jianzhou. As a result, as soon as the Ming Dynasty declined slightly, they raised the banner to rebel and slaughtered the Han people, resulting in a bloody storm in Liaodong. Students, you can be wise in reading history, what is wisdom? Distinguish between friend and foe. Who is our enemy and who is our friend, this is the most important question. It turns out that Yidi is my enemy, and the people are my friends... ”
While Wu Xing was giving an impassioned lecture, a woman interrupted: "Sir, please look, am I an enemy or a friend?" Wu Xing was stunned, now is not the beginning, basically except for the first batch of female students, he has never recruited any more female students. Of course, it's only a small number, but not to the extent that there is absolutely none. But those are more familiar to me, this voice sounds familiar, but it doesn't seem to be my own students. As soon as he followed the sound, he immediately felt that something was wrong.
It turned out that the person who came was none other than Lumahong! , it's really a dog, Wu Xing immediately glared at He Fengshan, who was in charge of the security work outside, and asked him with his eyes, how do you work on a donkey day? How did you put her in? He Fengshan also immediately replied with his eyes, sir, it's not that Lao Tzu doesn't give up, but she is your boss, how can I stop it?
