After coming out of the memorial hall, the "central officials" were placed in the Jiangxi School Palace, not far from the governor's yamen. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Ding Zhixiang returned to the banquet of Li Zhicui, the governor of Jiangxi, and dined together with a group of officials in the school palace as before. Seeing this, Li Zhicui and the others had no choice but to eat in the Xue Palace.

The meal was specially prepared by Jiangxi, but it was not too extravagant and wasteful, so Ding Zhixiang didn't say anything.

After eating, Ding Zhixiang and Li Zhicui waited for Jiangxi Wenwu to say a few polite words, and then went back to their rooms. He has a habit every day that he must write down what he did during the day before going to bed, and then reflect on whether what he did was right or wrong. This may have something to do with the fact that he was the envoy of Guangdong.

I just picked up a pen and wrote a few lines, and there was a knock on the door, but it was Wan Niance, the deputy envoy of the mission.

After Yongli fled from Kunming, because of despair of Yongli, coupled with his reluctance to abandon the country, Wan Nian Ce and the military department Shangshu Sun Shun, Dali Temple Shaoqing Liu Qin and other officials separated from the Yongli brigade, was ready to abandon the official and find a place to hide, and was rescued by the Taiping Army led by Xu Yingyuan and Guo Shao, and went to Annan, was rescued and returned to China, and was appointed as the squire of the Ministry of Works.

Although Ding Zhixiang is the official envoy of this visiting group, the specific person in charge is Wan Niance. From the handover and liaison with the local government to the eating, drinking, lazing, and living of officials, all of them are the specific operations of the Wannian Policy. It can be said that Wan Niance, the waiter, is the steward of the entire team, and everything is handled by him.

In terms of qualifications for the imperial examination, Wannian Ce was a jinshi in the Apocalypse, but Ding Zhixiang was a jinshi in Chongzhen's ten years. In terms of official qualifications, Ding Zhixiang was an envoy in Guangdong back then, but Wan Nian Ce was a household servant, so although Ding Zhixiang is now a bachelor in the cabinet, he is not high enough for this more senior squire, he personally got up to open the door for Wan Nian Ce.

"Brother Xuanhua, it's so late, what's wrong?"

Ding Zhixiang said while making tea for Wan Nian Ce. Wan Niance dared to let King Qi's henchmen and cabinet scholars make tea for themselves, and hurriedly snatched the teapot. While pouring, he said: "Zheng Zhonglei, Zhang Xuan, Yunnan Yushi of the Imperial Palace, and Ma Lun, Shaoqing of Taifu Temple, have not returned so far, I asked them about the people in the same team, and they all said that they don't know where they went, I was afraid of any accidents, so I came to report... Do you want to say hello to Li Zhicui and ask him to send someone to find it. ”

"This matter," Ding Zhixiang sat down slowly, took the teacup from Wan Niance's hand, put it on the table, and then shook his head, and said, "I don't think there is any need to send someone to find it." ”

Don't have to look for it?

Wannian was stunned, and I didn't know what Ding Zhixiang meant.

Ding Zhixiang didn't speak, but took the roster on the table, then opened it and drew a circle on the names of the three people mentioned by Wan Niance.

"This? ...”

Wan Niance was confused: what circle does a good end draw?

Ding Zhixiang closed the roster, glanced at the stunned Wan Nian Ce, and said very calmly: "Brother Xuanhua doesn't know that these three people have violated the wartime ban and have been punished by the pro-army. ”

"Huh?!"

Wan Niance was taken aback: "When did it happen, why don't I know?" What ban did the three of them commit? ”

"When they visited the memorial hall earlier, the three of them committed the capital crime of shaking people's hearts, slandering the edict of King Qi, and openly opposing the imperial court."

Wan Niance was stunned, and shook his head helplessly, those three people were really going to commit this thing, he couldn't save it even if he wanted to save it.

"Although these three people have violated the edict, they are all officials of the imperial court, how can they kill if they say that they will be killed, and they will act pro-army, it is too much.... It's overbearing. Wan Niance really couldn't think of any euphemisms, so he had to use the word "domineering".

"What's not domineering, it's wartime, the Northern Expedition is imminent, King Qi ordered the restructuring and rectification of the armies, isn't it still to expel the Tartars as soon as possible and restore the old capital. For this reason, the king of Qi unified his decrees, unified his thoughts, and worked hard to make everyone in the Ming Dynasty have one heart and avenge the tens of millions of compatriots who died tragically under the Tartar knife. At this juncture, Zheng Zhonglei and the three of them openly questioned the King of Qi and cleared the sins of the Manchurians, in exchange for you are His Royal Highness the King of Qi, do you want to kill them? ”

What Ding Zhixiang is talking about is the "ideological unification" work that is now spreading from the southern capital to the provinces, and this ideological unity can be summed up in one sentence, that is, the old capital has not been restored, and before the great revenge has not been avenged, the Ming army and people can only obey the command of one voice. This voice, of course, is the king of Qi Zhou Shixiang.

Organizing officials from various ministries to visit Holocaust memorials in various places is one of the specific arrangements for "ideological unification" under the auspices of the Metropolitan Governor's Office.

The purpose of the Metropolitan Governor's Office was to make the officials realize the danger of foreign invasions to the Han people, so that they could completely abandon the Confucian idea of governing the country with benevolence and righteousness and pacifying the Quartet. In this way, it can rejuvenate the iron-blooded thought that the Han nation was emasculated by Confucianism after the Han and Tang dynasties.

Wan Niance is clear about this matter, and also understands his responsibilities, the country's martial arts is advocated by the Confucian sage's six arts, and the horse can kill the enemy, and the horse can govern the country. The court is Tian Shelang, and the twilight is the Tianzi Hall, which is also what the scholars yearn for. Now the country is so ruined, the people have lost six or seven out of ten, and there are people everywhere and there is nothing left, such a tragic situation, for thousands of years, what other dynasty can compare.

Now that the south of the Yangtze River is basically recovered, the king of Qi is sharpening his knife and preparing for the Northern Expedition, and in one fell swoop he has quelled the Jiannu who have been in trouble in China for nearly 40 years. Otherwise, after the army went north, there would be such a thing as the Jiangnan riot in the rear, wouldn't the Northern Expedition be at a loss?

Wan Niance supported King Qi's idea of unifying the army and the people, but unifying his mind would kill people, which still made him a little difficult to accept.

"In fact, if King Qi really wants everyone to twist into a rope and think in one place, the key is not to issue various prohibitions, but to allow those who oppose questioning to speak, such as court discussions, such as public disclosure, etc. Let these people who don't care about the overall situation say what they think, and then the big guys criticize him together, so how can these people hinder the great cause of the Northern Expedition. At that time, they will be like rats crossing the street, everyone shouts and beats, and they are simply punished with heavy punishments, which is not as good as tyrannical Qin? ”

Wan Niance's words are a bit heart-wrenching, the tyrannical Qin II died, and he described the current policy of the king of Qi as the tyrannical Qin, and I am afraid that this squire of the Ministry of Works has also done it. However, he has been with Ding Zhi for a long time, and knows that although this person is a confidant of King Qi, he is not an unreasonable person, let alone a person who speaks ill of people behind his back, so he is not worried that these words will reach the ears of King Qi.

Ding Zhixiang really had no intention of playing right and wrong in front of King Qi, so that Wan Nian Ce would come to a miserable end. He chuckled lightly and said to Wan Niance: "Brother Xuanhua, do you know that King Qi once said something in the Dadu Governor's Mansion, and I am afraid that these words can relieve Brother Xuanhua's confusion." ”

"Oh?" Wan Niance was a little surprised, "Please tell the scholar." ”

Ding Zhixiang nodded slightly, thought for a moment, and said slowly: "King Qi said at the time that the heads of some people in this world are like stones in a dung pit, smelly and hard. Not only that, but these people are always self-righteous, do not accept other people's opinions, and always think that others are wrong and that he is right. Others think differently than he thinks, and he thinks that others are paranoid and stupid. It seems that only by listening to his opinions and adopting his methods can we govern the country and bring peace and stability to the world for a long time.

However, this kind of person does not know that since Jiashen, my Ming Dynasty is facing the survival of the nation, and it is a situation of national extinction and extinction like the five chaotic China, and it is definitely nothing else, therefore, at the moment, I Daming does not need this kind of stinky and hard, and self-righteous, looking down on others, and always being rational and objective. If there are more such people, our nation will be finished again, because they never think about the life or death of their compatriots, they only care about the so-called reputation, such as Confucianism, such as everyone, like some bullshit grandmaster.

As long as his official hat is still there, as long as his own privileges are still there, as long as the books he reads can continue to be read by future generations and do what they say, then they will die happily and feel that their life is worth it, they can go down in history, and they can always set an example for future generations. A hundred years have passed, two hundred years have passed, three hundred years have passed, no matter how many years have passed, there will always be disciples and grandchildren in this world who will help these people continue to sing praises for them, and they will never get tired of it. ”

Speaking of this, Ding Zhixiang took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and said: "King Qi said, these people have a lot of things in their heads, and they read a lot of books. Even if someone is better than them, they don't admit it, and the literati are inferior. The saint is the eldest, and I am the second. Is it feasible to deal with such people, reason with them, and lay out the facts? .... King Qi said very clearly, what doesn't work doesn't mean that they can't transform their minds, but it will take too long, and it won't work now. What is our task now, is to fight, to take revenge, to avenge the thousands of compatriots who have died under the Tartar sword. Those who don't take revenge themselves, but also prevent others from taking revenge, in the name of forgiveness and tolerance, Brother Xuanhua guessed what King Qi said? ”

"What does Your Highness say?"

"They've all been killed, and they've been killed. Overcorrection must be excessive, although doing so will kill many people and cause great trouble, but it is much more advantageous than not doing it, allowing those people to exist, and spreading their fallacies and heresies. Therefore, it doesn't matter whether the three of them died innocently or whether they didn't die for their crimes, the important thing is that they must die. ”

"Brother Xuanhua may still think that King Qi's decree is harsh, but Brother Xuanhua had better understand that as long as King Qi can lead me to the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, avenge thousands of compatriots who died, and let the people live a stable life, the word tyrannical Qin will never be tested on King Qi. Those people are not the people, and I think that if the people knew what those people said, I am afraid that the spittle stars would drown them....."

Speaking of this, Ding Zhixiang said earnestly to Wan Niance: "Brother Xuanhua, with all due respect, we and other officials can no longer protect each other in the future, engage in the integration of the gentry, and rule the world with the Son of Heaven." Times have changed, and now, the so-called hearts of the people are no longer the hearts of the gentry, but the hearts of the people. Whoever makes the people live well, and whoever makes the people no longer be bullied, will win the hearts of the people. ”

Wan Niance was silent, Xu is Ding Zhixiang's words made him unable to digest for a while. Ding Zhixiang casually took a piece of recital, handed it to him and said, "Oh, by the way, I want to play this recital with you, Brother Xuanhua thinks it's okay?" ”

Wan Nian Ce silently took the note, and after reading it, his face showed surprise: "King Yong is still alive?" ”

"King Yong is not dead, he has been hiding in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and now he has recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestors. When there is no queen today, King Yong is the blood of Emperor Xiaolie, if King Yong is the crown prince, the army and the people of the world will obey, so I intend to co-sign with Brother Xuanhua. ”

"Since Emperor Xiao has a queen, he should be made the crown prince."

Wan Nian Ce has no opinion on Liyong Wang as the crown prince, after all, the emperor has no queen, and his health is getting worse, and now the northern expedition of the army is imminent, if he can establish Yongwang as the crown prince, it is also a good way to calm people's hearts.

Seeing that Wan Niance agreed to sign the joint name, Ding Zhixiang relieved himself and handed him a pen to ask him to sign. Wan Niance did not hesitate, and put down his name. After putting the brush back on the pen holder, Wan Niance saw a book on the table, without a title, and only a strange object like a stick painted on the cover.

"What kind of pattern is this?" Wan Niance asked curiously.

The name of this thing is the emblem of a Fascist Book Society in Zhenjiang, and this booklet is also published by the Fascist Book Society. After reading it, I felt that what was written in the book was extremely practical, and that he might be able to govern the country one day. ”

"Fascist Society?"

Wannian has never heard of it, and I only knew that there were Fu Society, Wu Society, and Qian Society, when did a fascist society come out?

...........

Don't read too much into what is written in this book, because you exaggerate what the author thinks. I am a pragmatist, and I will do whatever is beneficial to the Han people at that time. Simplicity and rudeness can be criticized and questioned, but it is a good medicine. The country is so broken that it is almost extinct, and talking about other things is just a joke. The Manchu Qing Dynasty killed the gentry and literati, and killed everyone, so why didn't some book friends refute it, thinking that such a "Great Qing Dynasty" would not last long.

Some book friends, mainly book friends who have no subscription fans, you scolded the bones for writing in the book, but in reality, these are all done by the "Great Qing" that you don't want to insult.

This makes the bones very strange, you don't like to look at my work, you can not read it. Radish and cabbage, each has its own good, why do you have to quarrel with me, there are a lot of pink Tatars at the starting point.

No matter how poor my bones are, I can't make money writing books, and I don't want to beg you people to subscribe me to a few chapters.

In the other two days, I was busy negotiating with the upstairs to solve the problem of compensation in the study, and the update was a little less.
