Chapter 10 Subsequent Fermentation

Let's go back to the Mandarin Palace. After www.biquge.info came back, he devoted himself to sorting out what he said today in his own room, and all other plans were canceled.

Concubine Lu of Wenyuan Pavilion found out that there were many people who went to the Jinshen Hall today not long after Yun Wei and Yun Xi went, so she felt a little relieved. But don't worry, it's not an hour yet, and when Yun Wei came back and said what happened, he suddenly became nervous again. Everyone knows that although Zhu Yuanzhang is only chatting with his son and grandchildren these days, he is also choosing the most desirable person among the limited candidates for the prince (second Zhu Zhang, third Zhu Li, Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Yunxi) through small talk and conversation. Today, Yunxi published such a statement that is full of truth, philosophy, operability, and ...... and His Majesty also seems to value Yun Xi's views, and his ability to compete for the crown prince has greatly increased.

But Concubine Lu couldn't do anything about the affairs of the previous dynasty, and she didn't dare to assassinate Yunxi in the harem. First, Lao Zhu did not completely let go of the Wenhua Palace, especially after Zhu Biao's death, the monitoring of the Wenhua Palace was strengthened; The second is that if Lao Zhu only has two candidates, Yun Wei and Yun Xi, then she will give a hand, even if Lao Zhu finds out that he is dead, Zhu Yuanzhang can only make Yun Wei the prince, and even if he dies, it is worth it; But now there are other candidates, and the result of Bo Yi is likely to cause Lao Zhu Lian to dislike Yun Wei and make wedding dresses for others. Therefore, she can only use the ability to slander that she has not used for many years when she meets Lao Zhu much, professionally, without leaving a trace, and moisturizing things silently, so that Lao Zhu realizes Yunxi's shortcomings.

In addition, Concubine Lu glanced at Yun Wei, who was sitting next to her and was eating seriously, and the other point was that Yun Wei behaved well, Concubine Lu believed that her son was definitely better than Yun Xi when doing things (parents always trust their children). But Yun Wei's body still needs more rest.

"Yun Wei," Concubine Lu said. Yun Wei looked sideways at her. "Rest well after eating." Yun Wei was very surprised by this headless sentence, which is usually said after eating, but still answered "yes". After eating, Concubine Lu didn't accompany Yun Wei back to the bedroom today, and asked her to go to find her 'think tank'.

After talking about the palace, let's talk about the outside of the palace. All the adult princes live outside the palace, and today Yun Xi put forward such a shocking opinion, and everyone has a great desire to communicate, so they can't wait to talk to their staff, anyway, it's not something that needs to be kept secret. After hearing this, these staff members needed to calm their fragile hearts that had been trampled by 100,000 grass and mud horses, so they went to talk to their friends in Beijing. As soon as it was passed on to ten or ten, Yun Xi and his expansion of land and enough food, imitating Zhou Fengguo's views became the focus of attention of all officials in Beijing without warning.

In the evening, a sedan chair or carriage came and went hurriedly on the street, the time of curfew was approaching, and the people who had discussed with friends the idea of expanding the land and eating enough to imitate Zhou Fengguo hurried back to their addresses one by one, and the consequences of violating the curfew in the Hongwu Dynasty due to private matters may be very serious, maybe Zhu Yuanzhang will exile you when he is angry. But there was a sedan chair that did not go home, but came to the mansion of Liu Sanwu, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy of the Dynasty.

The sedan chair stopped at the side door, and out of the sedan chair came an old man in his seventies, who turned out to be the right man of the imperial history Bao Sui, who strode into the house, and there were two old men in their seventies like him who were waiting for him while discussing, and when they saw Bao Sui coming in, they hurriedly got up and greeted him. Bao Sui said: "Jun Zhong, Rusun, the three of us don't talk about these false courtesies, the two of you have also heard about the Three Emperors' grandson's expansion of land and sufficient food, imitating the views of Zhou Fengguo, right?" ”

The one who is called Rusun is Liu Sanwu, and the one who is called Jun Zhong is Dr. Guozijian (yes, you read that right, it is Dr.) Wu Shen, and the three of them are the only three people who can be called Confucianism among the officials in Beijing now. Most readers should not have heard of these three people, in fact, Liu Sanwu is a little better and more famous, he later presided over the Hongwu thirty-year examination, which was the first major scientific examination in the Ming Dynasty, and he also left a name in the history books because of this, and will talk about it later.

The trio sat in a circle. Wu Shen said: "I arrived for a while, and discussed with Brother Rusun, since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deposed the hundred schools of thought and respected Confucianism, all generations of Confucian scholars have supported unification and opposed the division of feudalism. But apart from those purely theoretical things (in fact, the author does not understand them very well), except for the fact that the opposition to reckless militarism can be clearly put forward and well-reasoned, the other parts are difficult to refute. ”

Liu Sanwu continued: "First of all, there is no room for refutation of the part about adequate food, that is, anyone who does not farm knows that the grain output of one acre of land is limited, and it is pointless to pick those small flaws to refute. Secondly, it is difficult to oppose the expansion of the territory, and the views of the Venerable King of Qi Huan and the Three Emperors and Grandsons of the Spring and Autumn Period are almost the same, and the saints are not confused today. Third, it can also be said that the matter of opposing the feudal state can also be said, but today the three of us will open the skylight and say that the opposition to the feudal state is a part of Confucianism because the emperors of the past dynasties insisted on unification and conformed to the new development concept of Confucianism (in fact, it is interests), and the original thought of the Holy Prophet (Confucius) is to support the restoration of the Zhou system, if you can't think of a clear idea. The irrefutable reason for the objection can be refuted by the original view of the Holy Master, and how the Holy One today thinks about this point is not easy to judge. ”

Listening to their words, Bao Sui said: "There is nothing else to say?" The other two shook their heads. Bao Sui pondered for a moment and said: "Most of the expansion of territory will become a waste of national strength, which can be refuted from here, but there is a suspicion of duplication; There is also the problem of sealing the country, maybe the world is still stable, there is the ambition of the wolf son of the feudal country, taking advantage of the Northern Yuan Dynasty to raise troops and make the world chaotic. Liu Sanwu said: "In the opinion of the Three Emperors and Suns, it is said that only in remote places to seal the country, such as Hami, the land in Guanzhong is barren, and it is no longer Guanzhong in the Qin and Han dynasties, and it is almost impossible to fight the Central Plains from the Western Regions through GS. Titi is okay, but I'm afraid His Majesty won't approve of it. ”

Readers may not understand, this point of view put forward by Yun Xi sounds good for the country, and they can't find fault with it, so why should they oppose it? That's their selfishness.

Of course, their selfishness is not directed against themselves. By general standards, all three of them are people of very noble character, people who are detached from low-level tastes, people who are not self-interested and specialize in benefiting others, and people who are iron-faced and selfless (haha).

Their so-called selfishness is directed against Confucianism. In a normal unified country, the status of military generals will continue to decline, while the status of civil servants will continue to rise; But if it continues to expand, the status of the military generals will always be high, and they will even overwhelm the civil ministers. And there is a hidden worry in their hearts: in the turbulent times of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the thoughts of the Confucian sage were not popular, although the era similar to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period could not be reproduced now, but as the great Confucianism of the time, of course several people would consider this kind of major event related to the future of Confucianism.

But the three of them discussed for a while and didn't have any good ideas, and finally Bao Sui said: "The three of us don't have any good ideas to discuss here, and Your Majesty will definitely mention it tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and let's talk about it then." So saying, he stood up, saluted the two of them, and turned to leave. As a great Confucian who Zhu Yuanzhang held out as the banner of Confucianism, he still has some privileges compared to ordinary petty officials, such as not worrying about curfews and the like.

Wu Shen and Liu Sanwu glanced at each other, sighed, and got up to leave.

==============================================================

That night, Zhu Yunxi didn't finish sorting out what he said this morning until very late and perfecting it. When he was all packed, it was already all (23 o'clock to 1 o'clock), although most modern people only went to bed at this o'clock or did not sleep, but at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, basically all places, except for the people who played the watch (jing), there were no other living people still active, even if it was a high-level club such as the women's branch, those who should go home went home to sleep, and those who did not go home also hugged their sisters to rest.

Yun Xi got up a little late the next day, but still insisted on going to Wenyuan Pavilion to harass Yun Xi after breakfast. Poor Yun Wei didn't sleep well yesterday! No matter how benevolent and humble a person is, he is also ambitious for the throne, and Yun Wei has also thought about becoming an emperor. But yesterday's words hit him clearly. A person who usually reads less than one-tenth of himself put forward such an unprecedented point of view, which made Yun Wei begin to doubt his IQ. So in the first half of the night, Yun Wei has been in self-denial; In the second half of the night, Yunxi finally regained a little confidence by recalling the encouragement and praise of the emperor's grandfather and father, and then the sky dawned. But Yun Wei didn't want to worry about his mother, so he got up normally. After eating, he was just about to go back and squint for a while, Yun Xi came, and it was difficult to turn him away, so he managed to deal with Yun Xi, and almost collapsed on the bed in an instant after Yun Xi left.

Yun Xi is also preoccupied today, otherwise he would not have noticed Yun Xi's obvious performance. After coming out of Yun Xi's place, he went to the Jinshen Hall with the content he had sorted out last night, and on the way, he kept thinking: What does Lao Zhu think? Will you accept my point of view? Is the record of the Ming history compiled by the Manchu Qing Dynasty reliable? Did Lao Zhu summon anyone in the Jinshen Hall today? Will Concubine Lu fight to the death? What will Wenchen think? The generals should support me, right? No, just because you support my point of view doesn't mean you will support me? And so on, it's a complete mess.
