Chapter IV: Establishment of Rules and Regulations (II)

"Uh-huh!" Zhu Chongjiu groaned and rubbed his nose, finding that the tip of his nose was a little crooked.

Although Liu Ji's words are written in four and six, and many allusions are used, the most basic meaning is expressed very clearly. That is, you Zhu Chongjiu didn't have a son, so you can understand how willful you are. Anyway, in the end, even if you fight the country, you don't know who will be cheaper, so it turns out that you just toss by your own temperament, and don't care about the flood after your death.

But not now, you Zhu Chongjiu is also a person with a son. You will inevitably build a new dynasty in the future, whether it is 800 years or 400 years, then you have to talk about some rules. The resumption of the Zhou ceremony will be the resumption of the Zhou ceremony, and the Han law will be the Han law. Emphasis on agriculture and suppression of business, corporal Lixian, depose a hundred schools, and respect Confucianism alone, in order to unify discipline and law, and the people know what to follow. Instead of pulling one in the east and one in the west, as is the case now. Always go wrong first and then fill the hole, always only look at the immediate interests, and live one day at a time!

"Berwyn, it's not the New Year yet." Before Zhu Chongjiu could think of how to answer Liu Ji's words, Chen Ji, the director of the Military Intelligence Department, reminded him with a smile.

"Yes, Liu joined the army. How can such a big thing be decided in three or two sentences! Feng Guoyong, who has a good relationship with Liu Bowen, also said with a smile.

Not only the two of them, but the rest of the civil and military forces present, also felt that Liu Ji's mention today was a bit out of place. They all opened their mouths and echoed: "The minister thinks that this matter is not in a hurry!" ”

"Training more soldiers, accumulating grain, and slowing down the claim to be king are the national policies proposed by the lord himself. Liu joins the army, are you too anxious!"

People are raised by their fathers and mothers, who doesn't make sense? The lord has been worried about the future for many years, and finally got a good news, and you Liu Bowen have to fill in some blockages for him. Isn't that nothing to look for? Moreover, the establishment of rules and regulations is not a simple matter, and the slightest mistake will affect the future of the entire Huaiyang system.

However, Liu Bowen turned a deaf ear to these kind reminders, smiled, and proudly retorted: "Do you know, why did the former Song Dynasty die? Wen Tian is martial, and the order is changed. Even the Jurchens have been killed under the city of Bianliang, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are still in a dream! ”

This is more and more excessive.

Indeed, the Great Song Dynasty was in decline because of Wen Tian's martial arts, and the imperial court basically ignored government affairs in the first month of spring. It is also true that since Emperor Renzong, the Great Song Dynasty has been pondering the law change day by day, but the result has changed and he has been tossed to death. But the Great Song Dynasty is the Great Song Dynasty, what does it have to do with Huaiyang? Who doesn't want to listen to a few auspicious words during the Chinese New Year, just you Liu Ji, but you are like a crow.

Immediately, the elder Shi Su Mingzhe first turned cold. He knocked down the ground with a gold-covered cane, and scolded in a deep voice: "Liu joins the army, please be careful!" Since you entered the shogunate, although the lord has not obeyed you, he has always regarded you as a humerus arm. How can you curse the entire Huaiyang on the day of the lord's great joy?! ”

"Yes, Lord Liu, why are you here today? Want to sell a direct invitation? Or is it that the lord is not kind enough to treat you, and he hurriedly beats a long song and returns? Li Mubai, the deputy director of the Household Bureau, has always looked at Liu Bowen not very pleasantly, and seeing that even the elder Shi Su Mingzhe no longer has patience with him, he immediately stood up and drew a line with this person. (Note 1) "Liu joins the army and says this very much! ”

"Liu Senjun behaved too much today! Although we are not talented, we also know the importance of it. Who dares to join the army like Liu, and every time he doesn't choose what to say?! ”

The other Wenchen present, except for Hu Dahai, also expressed their dissatisfaction with Liu Ji to a greater or lesser extent. Speaking from the heart, Zhu Chongjiu, the lord, in addition to acting informally and unconventionally, is too serious about the traders. In other aspects, he can definitely be called a generation of masters. He has a magnificent, broad-minded heart, and never sinners for his words. Wait for the subordinate Wu to also put his heart in his heart and pay respect. The treatment that should be given is no less than that of Meng Yuan's side, and the Huaiyang department has developed, and he knows how to share the blessings with everyone immediately.

An enlightened and generous lord like this, where do you go to find a second one? Why are you Liu Bowen still not satisfied, and you have to embarrass him in public again and again?

On the military general's side, out of admiration, no one immediately joined in the condemnation of Liu Ji. Instead, Hu Dahai took the lead, first interrupting everyone's questioning with a cough, and then smiled to find the two sides under the stairs, "Berwyn, have you been overworked lately, and you are a little unscrupulous?" My lord, colleagues, and listen to what Hu has to say. Berwyn has always been a straight-hearted person, and he may have been busy lately, so don't take him seriously!"

Unexpectedly, it was okay for him not to be with this mud, but as soon as he was with the mud, Liu Ji was even more energetic. Seeing this person, he first straightened out his clothes and robes, and then gave Hu Dahai a solemn salute, "Thank you General Hu for your kind words for Liu, but Liu knows that he is very sober now." ”

Immediately, he bowed down again and gave Su Mingzhe a long bow, "Thank you Su Changshi for reminding me, which made the lower officials more determined to report to the Lord today." The general manager treats Liu Mou with kindness, which is no less than the treatment of King Yan to Le Yi and the treatment of Hou Huan by Xinling Jun. Therefore, the lower officials did not dare to eat a vegetarian meal, and pretended to be deaf and dumb at the imminent danger of my Huaiyang! (Note 2) Without waiting for Su Mingzhe to refute, he turned his head again and saluted Zhu Chongjiu again, "The lord has an appointment with Weichen that day, the lord should be the king of Qin, and the micro-minister should follow Zheng Gong Xuancheng." This sentence is unforgettable. But I don't know if the lord still remembers?! ”

"Hey, what a clever tooth, you really dare to say it!" If a person can really smoke from seven orifices, at this moment, Su Mingzhe's nostrils will definitely be able to spew out a half-zhang long flame.

Between monarchs and ministers, if the words of King Qin and Wei Zheng were indeed what Zhu Chongjiu said to Liu Bowen. As a long history, Su Mingzhe also heard Zhu Chongjiu personally mention this matter later. But in his opinion, it was just Zhu Chongjiu's kind words to cherish Liu Bowen's talent and encourage him to be loyal to him with all his might. Who would have thought that this person would actually climb up the pole, and he really compared himself to Zhenguan Famous Minister, Zheng Guogong Wei Zheng Wei Xuancheng.

Just when he was so angry that he almost picked up his crutches and gave Liu Bowen a slap in the face. Zhu Chongjiu had already relieved himself for the first time, smiled and waved his hand, and shouted loudly, "Su Changshi, stand down." Brothers, please take your seats first. Zhu did ask Liu to join the army, and if he found that Zhu was wrong, he should not hesitate to speak out. He came today by Enoch, and he did no wrong! ”

In the last half of the sentence, he almost said it at all, and the true feeling in his heart was obvious to everyone present. However, since the people who are the lords have endured this, of course everyone can also endure it. Hold back the anger in your heart, and look at what ivory Liu Bowen, a pampered and arrogant guy, has to spit out in his mouth!

"Before Zhu went to Yangzhou, he was supported by the late Li Pingzhang and made a "Gaoyou Covenant" with the heroes." Taking a deep breath, Zhu Chongjiu tried his best to make his voice sound calm and soothing.

It is not easy to be a Qin king, and he now believes a little bit that the legend says that Li Shimin will immediately tear down Wei Zheng's tombstone after he gets angry one day. No matter how generous a person is, he will be scolded by a "minister" like Liu Ji for a lifetime, and it is estimated that he will be eager to dig up his grave and whip his corpse.

But Zhu Chongjiu was very glad that he didn't break out just now, because he suddenly found that Liu Bowen's arm hidden under his sleeve had actually been trembling. In other words, Liu Bowen specially wanted to provoke himself today, and he was specially prepared to fight to the death. At the expense of fighting to the death, he also wanted to pull himself and the entire Huaiyang system behind him into the right path he insisted on.

That path does look wonderful. It's a pity that from Zhu Dapeng's memory, Zhu Chongjiu knew the final bleak ending of the Ming Dynasty. Concentrated Zhu Yuanzhang, the grassroots emperor, and Li Shanchang, Zhu Sheng, Liu Ji and other famous ministers formulated the Ming national policy, the ancestors became the law, and it was very difficult to run from the beginning. In the Ming Dynasty, the monarch and the ministers were constantly fighting. Until Li Zicheng entered Beijing, he was still pouring in. As a result, the Jurchens who rose outside the border were cheapened in vain, and Huaxia sank into darkness again.

"The covenant of Gaoyou is a covenant between the princes, not the canonical system of my Huaiyang!" Liu Bowen seemed to have expected that Zhu Chongjiu would use Gaoyou's appointment to prevaricate himself, so he arched his hand again and retorted with a calm face.

"After conquering Gaoyou, the Governor's Office also kept rectifying the law and issuing various decrees according to local conditions. I am afraid that there are no less than 200 laws and decrees that have been handed over to various provinces for enforcement after Zhu has personally sorted them out. Zhu Chongjiu looked at him and smiled, and continued to add.

If you can hold the first breath, you can hold the second breath. Liu Bowen wants to be a loyal minister who admonishes each other to death, but he Zhu Chongjiu doesn't want to be a legendary king.

"This is a way to deal with a headache and a foot pain, not what Weichen said, a hundred years of canon, a thousand years of system!" Liu Bowen rolled his eyelids and unceremoniously pierced Zhu Chongjiu's foolish words.

"Can Bowen tell Zhu that there can be a thousand-year-old country and a king of eternity?" Zhu Chongjiu was forced to retreat, so he had to face the difficulties.

"Great Zhou" Liu Bowen instinctively wanted to take the Zhou Dynasty as an example. But he quickly discovered that there was a trap here. The sum of the two weeks of the east and west is only 798 years, and the two Han years before and after it are 405 years. Strictly speaking, it can't be considered a thousand-year-old country. Of course, it is not possible to adopt a system of rules and regulations that has not been easy for thousands of years.

But what Liu Bowen wants Zhu Chongjiu to accept today is the road of Confucianism, not the details of the specific time. Therefore, his brows furrowed slightly, and he came up with another set of rhetoric. "After the week, those who have to be called Ming Jun will all say self-denial and revenge. Han Dynasty descended, and those who have to ask Jiuding, don't first make three chapters of the law with the people! Today, the lord wants to expel the Tartars and restore China. But he doesn't promote Zhou etiquette, he doesn't talk about Chinese law, he just blindly makes a fuss about the word money. Even if he is successful in his year, should he be Huaxiahu? Or is it Yidihu? ”

"Hmm-" Zhu Chongjiu was so angry that it was dark in front of him, and he almost didn't pull out the pig-killing knife from his waist. Since he started the army, although his personal goals have been changing, his career has always been positioned on the eight words "expelling the Tartars and restoring China". Unexpectedly, because he refused to fully adopt Confucian ideas and refused to give scholars and doctors the status of masters, today Liu Bowen believes that even if the country is founded, it belongs to Yidi. How could he endure this?!

However, several times the fingers opened and closed, but he still stuck the blade back into the sheath.

Zhu Dapeng's soul has always influenced him. Although you can't tell him what is the right way, you can tell him what kind of ugly deeds will be laughed at for a thousand years.

I disagree with you, but I defend your right to speak to the death. This is freedom of speech.

We are talking about democracy and freedom, please shut up, or hang up the pole. It's bastard logic.

Thinking of this, he suddenly calmed down his anger, shook his head and smiled: "Okay, okay, Berwyn asked a good question?" What is Huaxia and what is Yidi? Three generations of governance, Yao Ke once divided the people to respect and humble? Shun Ke once divided the people into good and low? It is the foreign barbarians, bullying the weak, plundering men as slaves, plundering women as animals, and the journey of birds and beasts is endless! ”

Taking advantage of Liu Ji's stunned speech, Zhu Chongjiu raised his voice abruptly: "It is because Zhu thinks that the reason why Huaxia is Huaxia is because of benevolence, righteousness, studiousness, and tolerance." but do not do unto others as you would have them do unto you; It is because of the place of righteousness, although thousands of people have gone to me! but because of the three, there will be my teacher; Because of the news of the court, it is okay to die at night! Unless it is cruel, all those who are inferior to me in the world are slaves. If it is not for luck, if the benefit is not in me, there is no return. It is not because of conservatism, hearing the kindness of neighbors, and destroying one's ears and eyes. If it is not for stubbornness, I will abandon the way that others have attained! Berwyn, do you think so? (3) If we talk about the culmination of sophistry, it is none other than the method of "stirring up nonsense" at the 21st Century Forum. It seems to be a sideshow, but it is actually rolling on the ground. And Zhu Dapeng is also quite good at studying this way, and after marrying Lu Shuang'er, he has been influenced by the school bully sister every day, and at this moment, he used allusions, and it seemed to be easy for a while.

Liu Ji couldn't pick up these words for a long time. I wanted to find a flaw to refute a few words, but I found that there seemed to be flaws everywhere, and I seemed to be able to justify myself everywhere.

Moreover, what the rule of the three generations originally looked like is mostly inferred in the annals of history. According to the standard view of Confucianism, the three emperors of Yao Shunyu did work in the fields with the people, sacrificing themselves for others regardless of their contributions. But he never said that he would divide the people into farmers, industrialists, and industrialists, and treat them differently. Not to mention that officials and scholars should be in a high position.

So after tasting it again and again, Liu Bowen actually found that he was speechless. However, Zhu Chongjiu was completely stimulated by his own fallacies just now, smiled and added loudly: "Berwyn persuaded Zhu today to follow the example of the original Han Gaozu and make three chapters of the law as the ancestor of the Han Dynasty. But Zhu thought that the three chapters of the law were still too complicated. If I, Huaiyang, set up the ancestral law for the founding of the country, in fact, one is enough! ”

Taking a deep breath, his gaze quickly swept over all the stunned faces. Ten fingers slowly clenched into a fist around his waist, "Under the sky, all people are created equal!" This is the agreement between Zhu and you, and the people of the world. If the country is established, it will not be easy for eternity! ”

Note 1: Warring States Policy, Feng Zhenke Meng Weijun. Feng suspected that Meng Weijun had given him poor treatment, so he played the sword and composed a song, preparing to resign.

Note 2: King Yan treats Le Yi and Xinling Jun treats Hou Huan, these two examples are examples of corporal Lixian in ancient times. Therefore, those who are treated favorably are repaid by the countrymen.

Note 3: The words in it are all quoted from the quotations of the ancient sages. was extended by Zhu Chongjiu, played, and wantonly misinterpreted. He has a poor academic background, so don't laugh.
