Chapter 132: The Class Composition of the Red Flower Society
As soon as these words came out, the originally buzzing classroom suddenly fell silent, it had long been an open secret that the Red Flower Society was determined to rebel, but it was the first time that it had been openly talked about in front of hundreds of people. Chen Jialuo did not urge, holding the chalk in his back hand and walking back and forth on the podium, patiently waiting for someone to stand up. I looked at the handwriting on the blackboard, and it was a little blurry, far less clear than the frosted glass blackboard I used before I crossed it. Of course, there is no way, even the chalk and blackboard used now are also made by Ma Shanjun temporarily convened people according to Chen Jialuo's instructions, and Gao Zhisi and Yang Dewang also helped a lot in the production process, which allowed chalk to appear in the world a hundred years in advance.
After waiting for a while, a fat man stood up, "This world forces people to live anymore, the villain Yin Fei is a person from Jinkui in Jiangsu, and his family has dozens of acres of thin fields, although he is not rich, but he also eats and drinks." Speaking of this, the fat man Yin Fei showed an inexplicable brilliance on his face, as if he was recalling his happy life at that time, but it dimmed in an instant, "It's a pity that when I was fifteen years old, the gentry in the township fell in love with my family's land, and my father refused to sell it, so the gentry communicated with the government to charge my father with a crime of stealing the people, and put my father in the shackle at the gate of the county government and stuffed it into the station cage to die alive." My mother also hanged herself after learning the news, and the gentry still wanted to kill me, but fortunately, someone in the clan couldn't see it and helped me escape", Yin Fei couldn't stop crying before he finished speaking.
Chen Jialuo walked over and patted him on the shoulder, "Brother Yin, do you remember the name of that gentleman?" When we hit Jiangsu after the uprising, we will definitely avenge you! ”
"The villain doesn't dare to forget for a moment!" , Yin Fei gritted his teeth and said, "That thief claimed to be a member of Yu Minzhong's clan, the left servant of the Criminal Department of the Central People's Republic of China, and he also used Yu Minzhong's desire to buy Yitian for the clan as an excuse. ”
Yu Minzhong was the champion of Qianlong's second year, and later became the Minister of Military Aircraft, this person has always had a clear name, presumably someone is acting in his name, right? Yin Fei's words resonated with many people, and many people immediately stood up and excitedly talked about how their family's land was encroached upon. For feudal society, this land annexation was like the economic crisis of capitalist society, and it was an unavoidable and stubborn disease rooted in the system. The rulers of feudal society are the landlord class, the landlords have a desire for land beyond all else, they will use the privileges in their hands through usury, natural disasters**, control of grain prices, manipulation of taxes and lawsuits and other means to snatch the little land in the hands of the peasants, those landless peasants now have no factories and other places to provide them with jobs to make a living, so they will either become hired farmers, or take risks, when the land annexation accumulates to a certain extent, then the dynasty will be burned to ashes by the anger that has accumulated for a long time. It's like a snake, the landlords grow themselves by eating cubes, and when they reach a certain point, the operation becomes more and more difficult, and eventually leads to destruction.
Chen Jialuo listened carefully to their words, and from time to time comforted them, he probably saw that about one-third of the more than 200 people in the congregation were landless peasants. When their voices gradually lowered, someone stood up again, "Xiang Zhenhua, who was born in a late life, was born in a scholarly family, and his father was originally a school teacher, and he was at ease when he studied and farmed on weekdays; But in the eighteenth year of Qianlong, someone sued the official that my father harbored a reverse book, and the cool official dug out the "Jian Mo Sheng Poems" from my father's study, and my father was immediately sentenced to beheading. It's a pity that my father fell ill in prison, and he went soon after being rescued. After speaking, he bowed deeply to Zhenhua, and at the same time muttered in his heart, I have been in the club for a long time, if I can't make a great contribution, I'm afraid that the court will not give me the official even if it forgives me for the crime of rebellion, it is better to gain the trust of this person first, and then report to the official after finding out the secrets in the meeting!
The case of "Jian Mosheng Poetry Copy" is a famous ** during the Qianlong period, and the author of "Poetry Copy" is Hu Zhongzao, who once served as a bachelor of Hanlin Academy and Guangxi Xuezheng, and Jian Mosheng is his number; In the eighteenth year of Qianlong, someone sent his "Jian Mo Sheng Poem Copy" to Qianlong to tell the informant, saying that there were sentences such as "there is no sun and moon in a lifetime" and "a handful of hearts and intestines are turbid". Qianlong was furious, thinking that this was "a word of rebellion and slander and resentment", the sun and the moon were written together as Ming characters, which was Hu intended to restore the Ming Dynasty and reprimanded Hu Shi, "Add the voiced character before the country name (Qing), what is the heart?", Hu Shi also has the sentence "King Mu's car does not stop driving", Qianlong also thought that Hu satirized his many southern tours, etc., according to this reasoning, Hu's entire poem copy became a systematic anti-Qing book. Hu Zhongzao and his people were beheaded, causing trouble to their teachers and friends; Even the governor of Guangxi, Echang, who had poetry and harmony with him, was given suicide because he did not report it in time.
As soon as Xiang Zhenhua said this, more than a dozen scribes in the audience dressed as relatives all looked like relatives, and under careful questioning, they were all victims of **; During the Qianlong period, there were more than 130 cases, especially concentrated in the middle of the Qianlong period, which was the most dense and most literary disaster in the three dynasties of Kang Yongqian, and now it is the peak of the first generation, and it is no wonder that so many literati have joined the Red Flower Society. However, Chen Jiale did not intend to reuse them, firstly, these people have been influenced by Confucianism for a long time, and they are afraid that they are resistant to what they will do in the future, and secondly, the literati of this era are not very reliable, and it is difficult to guarantee that someone will run to the Qing court with an amnesty decree from the imperial court.
Then other people also spoke, some were small craftsmen who were forced to go bankrupt by the guild, some were businessmen who were oppressed by the government, and those monks, nuns, Taoist priests, etc., who were seized by the lamas, and of course, the descendants of the major martial arts sects. It took a lot of time for the 200 or so people to finish talking one by one, plus the time for rest and eating in the middle, and it was already dark after most of them finished speaking.
Chen Jialuo summed up a few sentences and began to leave homework after class, "All the brothers have said today that the reason why they want me to go to the Red Flower Club is that most of them are forced to live by the government, landlords, guilds, etc., but have you ever thought about why you have embarked on this road?" Chen Jialuo waved his hand to stop the speech of the people below, "Don't be in a hurry to say it first, and discuss it with the people in the same room after you go back in the evening, and talk about it tomorrow." Remember to tell not only your own reasons, but also the reasons of the people in your room. This can be regarded as deepening their understanding of the imperial court and cultivating a preliminary collective concept.
