Chapter 24 POV: Liu Ruyi solemnly swears

"I have made it very clear, what we have to do is to assist the Son of Heaven to eradicate the eunuchs and kill the rebels, won't the Son of Heaven be grateful to us? In this way, the imperial court will be able to vacate a large number of official positions, maybe we can't be governors, governors, and even county orders, but these newly appointed officials are only in positions because of our benefits, can they not respect us? And if any of the magistrates in this Jiangnan region dare to get along with us, we will attack him en masse, saying that he is a remnant of the eunuch party, and see if he dares to confront hundreds of thousands of our scholars in Jiangnan! When the time comes, the Son of Heaven, the imperial court is optimistic, and the local officials are supportive, it will be too simple for us to get an official position! ”

Although Liu Xu spoke very well, he still didn't say what kind of official he could be, and finally a scholar couldn't bear it: "Liu Gongzi is a human being, and I admire it to the bones, but what kind of official can you be, please show Gongzi!" I will wait for the water to come and the fire to go, and I will never refuse! ”

Liu Xu deliberately sold Guanzi: "You all think like this? Answer me out loud, no! ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" The scholars roared in unison, and the momentum shook the sky, so that Liu Ruyi just wanted to cover his ears. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"I didn't hear it, be louder!" Childe seemed to be a little dissatisfied, he waved his arms and roared loudly, he had already thrown away his previous gentleness and dignified manners.

"Yes, yes, yes!" The scholars had green eyes, waved their arms, and roared with the greatest strength in their lives!

"Not enough, not enough, not enough! I want you, like me, to raise your right arm, raise it high, and use all your strength to shout, yes, Liu Gongzi, yes, Liu Gongzi, yes, Liu Gongzi! ”

Liu Ruyi couldn't believe his eyes, the scholars who were usually scattered and proud raised their right arms one after another, they stared at each other, and raised their arms in unison, and then he saw a forest composed of arms in an instant, this forest was dense, covering the sky and the sun, as if to cover the entire sky!

"Yes, Liu Gongzi, yes, Liu Gongzi, yes, Liu Gongzi!"

"Yes, Liu Gongzi, yes, Liu Gongzi, yes, Liu Gongzi!"

"Yes, Liu Gongzi, yes, Liu Gongzi, yes, Liu Gongzi!"

Sonic shook the world, like a tsunami!

"Good! Since I have your words, I will say it! Liu Xu seemed to be very satisfied with the current frenzied atmosphere, motioned for everyone to lower their arms, and slowly spoke, his tone was solemn, serious and dignified, as if he was announcing the will of heaven on behalf of the Jade Emperor: "What kind of officials can we be?" We can be any official! It's just that a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, we must start from the grassroots first, and if we do a good job, we can ascend! ”

"I'm just going to say the first step today, we can ask the court to ask us to form a 'council' in the countryside, to declare education for the court, and to govern fools and fools! The imperial court doesn't have so many official positions for us, and there is no money to give to us, so in order not to chill the hearts of the world's scholars, they will definitely agree to us! This council is composed of eunuchs, local gentry, and patriarchs, and it is not usually convened, but it is convened every time it is hoped that the council will be convened to jointly examine and approve rural disputes, cases, taxes, education, etc., you can not underestimate this councilor, a county magistrate cannot decide all affairs with full power, and you are not only in charge of the trial of cases and taxes, but also in charge of rural culture and education, the authority is very large, and there are many places that can reap benefits! If any magistrate is unwilling, it is sympathetic to the eunuchs, and we have hundreds of scholars at present, and when the time comes, thousands or tens of thousands of scholars will rise up to attack him, and he can't help but disagree; Where the gentry and patriarch disagree, let's find a soft persimmon, saying that he is a remnant of the eunuch party, and he will work with the magistrate to destroy him! When that time comes, any student who wants to be a member of the parliament will have to join our Jimin Society, we have a huge power, and we have the reputation of serving the country loyally, who dares to provoke us! When the time comes, the county order is Bailihou, and you are all three and five miles, and we hold regular member meetings to elect the president and branch president, and we can decide the major events of a county or even a government, but it is another Bailihou! ”

"Okay, Liu Gongzi said it well! If any magistrate is disobedient, we will drive him out of the yamen and let him lose his office! Which gentleman dares to be disobedient, he is the remnant of the eunuch party, let's destroy him! In the final analysis, we still have to be taken care of by our scholars in this big tomorrow, and the emperor can't do without us! ”

"That's right, if we are country councilors, we can decide on the affairs of the country, which is very beneficial to establishing our authority! Usually, the local gentry look down on us for their great business, but now they have to sit on an equal footing with us! ”

"The best thing is that once the court recognizes it, we are the people of the court who are serious, or the Son of Heaven himself admits it, if we do it well, maybe we can be promoted to be a county order or something!"

"Emasculated to be an official, promoted to an official, promoted to an official, promoted to make a fortune, whoever wants to disobey will lose his official position and destroy the door!"

"Lose the official and destroy the door, lose the official and destroy the door, lose the official and destroy the door!"

The soldiers raised their right arms high, straightened out, and shouted loudly, shouting, hissing, roaring, and although they were in crazy shape, their eyes contained infinite joy. Liu Ruyi knew why they were happy, after all, they were only able to participate in the affairs of one place before, but there was no clause to support their behavior, in the final analysis, it was just a conventional compromise of power, but now they saw an opportunity to establish power authority, an opportunity to enter the official promotion system, how could they not be ecstatic?

Liu Xu let the scholars roar for a while, and then slowly spoke: "I think you have seen the great future, and it is definitely not that I have deceived everyone!" But everyone must understand that if this major event is to succeed, it must be as united as a military confrontation, and it must be forbidden! ”

"Therefore, I propose, let's strike while the iron is hot, elect leaders, set social rules, prosper and lose, take care of each other, and take care of each other!"

"No problem, this is a must, we all support Liu Gongzi as the president, lead us to be officials together and make a fortune together!"

"Okay, let's raise our hands and vote, and agree to raise my right arm as the president!"

Because they had been raising their right arms before, everyone couldn't help but raise their arms.

Liu Ruyi secretly observed, almost all the scholars raised it for the first time, and occasionally a few were reluctant, and they did not dare to resist the anger of the public.

He made a note of what these people looked like, intending to keep an eye on them in the future.

"Tonight is a complete victory, Liu Gongzi's authority has been established!"

"Very good, then Liu will be the first president of our Jimin Society, and then our Jimin Society will do things, organize liaisons, and there must be a few liaison officers who are in charge, and these liaison officers will not work in vain, I will pay for my own money, and one person will give two hundred taels of silver a year for their hard work, which can be regarded as a reward for their merits!"

"It's a must!" Since these people are just working, and Liu Gongzi pays for it himself, the scholars can't say anything against it.

"Childe's trick is wonderful, these stupid people only see that they can be a village councilor in the future and can manage a township, but they didn't expect this liaison to contact each other and accumulate contacts and prestige, and in the future, they will be the underground emperor of a county, where can a small councilor compare? And Gongzi hired these people at his own expense, which is to treat the Jimin Society as his own industry, which is the prelude to turning the family into a country! Liu Ruyi felt that he was born with an ability to understand political relations, and he immediately understood the scheming and calculation contained in Liu Xu's move, but he himself was one of the beneficiaries, so it was naturally impossible to speak out.

"In this case, I propose that Xu Fuyuan, Su He, Wang Zhen, Liu Ruyi, Li Fengtian, and Zhou Jun be the liaison officers of my Jimin Society for the time being, responsible for contacting each other, communicating news, and communicating with each other. And after the deed is completed, I will open a printing factory in Songjiang to print Jimin Daily, and only sell him a copper coin and a penny, and make a lot of money at a loss! This is similar to the Imperial Court Tang Daily, but they all publish articles and papers of our members, specifically to publicize the morality and achievements of our Jimin Society, or it won't be long before the world can let the world know that our Jimin Society is worried about the country and the people and selfless feelings, so that we have people and fame, and the heroes of the world are rolling in, who dares to get along with us? ”

"As for the rules, let's make a simple oath first, I will say it, everyone will put forward opinions, if there is no objection, it will be decided!"

Liu Xu was dark and solemn, and slowly recited a passage:

The Holy King composes, educates the world, the Son of Heaven is on the throne, the light is four tables, only Confucius and Mencius are the Tao, the king is respected, the people are cared for, the people are revealed, and the harmony is all nations, so as to determine the civilization of thousands of years, and to open the peace that is not easy for all generations. We and other members of the Jimin Society, I swear today, the national disaster is good, the treacherous and evil jump off the beam, we do not seek fame, do not pursue profit, take root in the countryside, take care of general affairs, but seek the peace of the country and the people, and the river is clear and Haiyan! We are the gentlemen of Jimin Society, there are famous people in Jiangnan, there are elites in Huguang, there are strong men in Hebei, there are heroes in Yungui, there are handsome people in Shandong, there are Jishi in Lingnan, there are talents in the Central Plains, there are pure ministers in Shanxi, and now Jiannu is arrogant, its momentum is strong, this is the judgment between Confucianism and heresy, this is the decisive battle between civilization and barbarism, we are the seeds of reading, one has no sword, two has no armor, three has no artillery, three has no artillery, four has no bow and arrow, the only one is heroic, two sleeves are breezy, three lives serve the country, and the four countries are the style, people are in the country, and the country dies together!

This paragraph of the oath is both white and white, majestic, although it cannot be regarded as a sentence of extreme work, but it can also be called a sentence of blood, the words are shocking, and the scholars have long been mobilized, it is because the scholars have been born and praised, and shouted loudly:

"We are the only one who is hot-blooded, has two sleeves and a clean breeze, serves the country with three lives, and takes the four countries as the style, people are in the country, and they die with the country!"

"People are in the country, and they will die with the country!"

The soldiers stretched out their right arms and called out, obviously there were only hundreds of voices, but Liu Ruyi suddenly thought that he was in front of the two armies and was about to fight to the death, he couldn't help but stretch out his right arm and roared: "People are in the country, and they will die with the country!" ”

"Okay, that's all for today, then let's disperse, I'll send someone to put down the oath later, everyone must recite it every day, and don't waste it! In the future, we need to plan a formal joining meeting, where we will recite the oath together and issue a membership certificate! The day after tomorrow we will be able to arrive in Jiading City, this is the first big city on our road, we must raise our spirits and fight the first tough battle! ”

Liu Ruyi turned his head to look at Liu Xu, only to see him scolding Fang Xuan between his words, pointing out the country, and his heart was also surging with infinite pride, and he couldn't help but whisper: "Let me follow you and see how much you can do in this world!" ”

He looked up and saw that the moonlight was just right, a corner of the moonlight was missing, but it did not affect the brightness at all, the moonlight as white as water shone down, and the sky and the earth were bright!

Liu Ruyi followed Gongzi and walked off the high platform, he saw that Gongzi was still waving to the sergeant from time to time, and hurriedly got out of the way, but almost fell off the stage, fortunately, Zhou Jun's eyes were quick and pulled him.

Liu Ru threw a grateful look at Zhou Jun, and the previous disappearance disappeared, he felt that this young man's nature was not bad, but he was a little competitive sometimes. He looked at Childe's face, and Childe, who had always been energetic, also looked tired, which was no wonder, after all, it was very energy-consuming to mobilize the emotions of so many people in such a big scene tonight.

"Childe, my subordinates have a question I want to ask Childe to answer." Liu Ruyi said cautiously, because he was afraid that his son would be too tired, he added: "If the son is tired, I can ask again another day." ”

"If there is a problem, it is best to solve it on the same day, ask, you and I get along with each other, like a fish in water, why be polite?" Liu Xu's voice was a little tired, but his words were like a shot in the arm, which made Liu Ruyi very excited.

"Childe, my subordinates just feel that although these scholars are encouraged by Childe, after all, they are all unruly by nature, and they can be used when there is a shortage of people, and most of them will cause trouble after a long time."

Liu Xu looked at Liu Ruyi with a little strange eyes, Liu Ruyi secretly screamed that it was not good, but he didn't know what he was wrong, so he had to lower his head and lower his eyebrows, indicating obedience.

After a while, he heard Gongzi continue: "You can see this, really, really surprise me, I thought you would think that these scholars can be used as descendants!" ”

"These scholars are just a combination of profit, but a rabble, and those who are united by profit can naturally be divided by profit, how can they be used as cronies?"

"So, what do you think should be done?" Liu Xu's words have a bit of a school test.

"The subordinates feel that these people should be used, after all, Zhou Gong has one meal and three spit feeding, one bath and three grips of hair, in order to win the hearts of the world's heroes and achieve meritorious deeds, and Han Xin in the early Han Dynasty also has a case of fighting against the water, which shows that this rabble is not completely useless. If these people are kept out, it is not the right thing for the Lord to do. Secondly, once the son's plan is successful, these people will enter the local area and become the real power, although the subordinates don't know what the lord's plan is, but these people must be our arms and not enemies! ”

"It's good that you can think of it, but what else?"

"If you really want to establish cronies, it is better to buy hundreds of orphans and teenagers, carefully train them like Zhou Jun, teach the mind by the lord himself, and educate the text by our subordinates, as long as they live five or six years, they will be a group of loyal readers, with unified thoughts, like an arm command, and they are naturally not afraid of betrayal when they are used!"

"Liu Ruyi, Liu Ruyi, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, you can even come up with this trick!" Liu Xu seemed very surprised, and said to Zhou Jun: "Brother Liu, this is Wang Zuozhi, you have to learn from him!" This is a very good idea, I will start to do it when it is done, Zhou Jun, you are the senior brother, and Brother Liu is the first instructor, so you must do it well! ”

"Yes!" Liu Ruyi and Zhou Jun agreed in unison.

"Then Liu Ruyi, you said that these scholars are useless, but they have to be used, so how to deal with those who forget their righteousness?" Liu Xu's words were full of appreciation, which made Liu Ruyi even more excited. Because these questions have been secretly thought about by him for a long time, he is now speaking eloquently and extremely fluently:

"The subordinates felt that they could take a three-pronged approach, first, the "Analects" said that the Ji family was rich in the Duke of Zhou, and Qiu also gathered and benefited from it. Zi said: "It's not my disciple." The kid beat the drum and attacked. It can be seen from this that this person who does not follow our creed is a traitor and a heretic, and can use the newspaper of our Jimin Society to smear and attack him, as long as he is said to be a remnant of the eunuch party and mixed into our ranks, he can naturally be expelled from the council, as long as one or two are dealt with like this, and the members can be kept loyal; Second, establish a system and actively participate in the activities of the company, we will give him promotion and money, and those who do not perform well will be expelled from the company, with clear rewards and punishments, and they will naturally be solemn and orderly; Third, several of the son's friends are all big families, we have a higher reputation after the fact, and we can completely influence the local imperial examination, and when the time comes, those who follow us can be students, lift people, and those who don't follow can't even be students, we naturally have a great reputation, there will be countless scholars to vote, and we can naturally cultivate a group of more loyal people to use! ”

"Good, good, good! Ruyi only learned today, you will do your best to help me in the future, let's work together to open a peaceful world for the people! Liu Xu looked at Liu Ruyi, his eyes burning.

Liu Ruyi nodded firmly: "I will die to repay you!" ”
