As soon as Li Jiancheng opened his mouth, the ministers who led the way had an ominous premonition, and today this matter was full of strangeness. But at this moment, Li Jiancheng's verdict has been issued, and everyone's words are blocked in their stomachs, and they don't know how to speak, so they can only watch Li Jiancheng's performance.

Li Jiancheng beckoned, and Wang An handed over a file to Li Jiancheng, who opened the file and said: "I remember Mencius saying that 'the people are precious, the society is secondary, and the monarch is lighter. I think that makes sense. Personally, I am the lightest one compared to the thousands of people in my Ming Dynasty. ”

Li Jiancheng first said such a sentence, which made the courtiers feel a little incredible, why did they say that! This is actually a bit historical, and it is also related to those wonderful emperors of the Ming Dynasty, such as Zhu Yuanzhang, the Emperor of Hongwu, who did not have a good impression of Confucius and Mencius. In the second year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the Confucius Temple to pay tribute only in Qufu, and there was no need to worship in the world. Qian Tang Shangshu, the secretary of the Criminal Department, said: "Confucius has taught for eternity, and the world respects his teachings, so the world has to worship Confucius, and the gift of retribution cannot be abolished." Zhu Yuanzhang didn't listen, and then Cheng Xu, the waiter of the Criminal Department, waited for him, and after a long time, he used his words.

If Zhu Yuanzhang is still kind to Confucius, then there is no mercy to Mencius, and he is simply hateful. Zhu Yuanzhang once read the book "Mencius" and read that "the people are precious, the society is secondary, and the monarch is light", "the king regards the minister as a sibling, and the minister regards the king as the heart." The monarch regards the minister as a dog and a horse, and the minister regards the monarch as a countryman. The king regards the minister as a mustard, and the minister regards the king as an enemy. "The minister kills the king, but what? Said: A thief is called a thief; The Righteous Thief. It is called a disability; The Man of the Thief. It is said that a husband; Hearing the punishment of a husband. I haven't heard of killing the king. When he waited for the speech, he was very annoyed, he thought that this TM was a provocation and great disrespect to the imperial power, and said: "If this old man was born today, how could Lao Tzu let him go!" So Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Mencius to be driven out of the Temple of Literature and "dismiss his enjoyment." And issued an edict: "Those who have admonishment will be judged as disrespectful." ”

Of course, there are still people who advise. It's still this Qian Tang, this Xiangshan man is quite stubborn, and Zhu Yuanzhang's edict has just been issued. He "resisted the invasion of the admonition" and said: "The minister died for Meng Ke, and there is more glory in death." ”

This is Zhu Yuanzhang's, and Ming Chengzu is even better. Cheng Zu was a little unjustified when he was on the throne, so he wanted to find a very influential person to write a summons for him, so he asked him to find Fang Xiaoru, who was very qualified and influential at that time, but Fang Xiaoru refused to agree that Cheng Zu was unwilling to draft a summons for him. So Cheng Zu was annoyed and angry, so he arrested Fang Xiaoru's friends and protégés as the ten clans and killed them all. Wait until Zhu Di kills all the eight hundred and seventy-three people of Fang Xiaoru's ten clans, and then imprisons Fang Xiaoru in the city. Punishment is what we usually call a thousand cuts.

In the era of the Ming Dynasty, there was no shortage of heavy actions for the academic world, so Li Jiancheng personally was not afraid of those so-called Shilin students. There is a history of Taizu who invited Mencius out of the Temple of Literature, and he felt that he would not go too far in doing anything. So Li Jiancheng doesn't care about messing around academically. Having said that, Li Jiancheng still didn't dare to understand the fundamentals. Chengzu is targeting individuals, didn't Taizu not kill that Qian Tang in the end? In the end, there are scruples.

Taizu scoffed at Mencius's scholarship, but now Li Jiancheng specifically mentioned the correctness of 'the people are precious, the society is secondary, and the monarch is light', which is a good signal for most ministers, at least the emperor has begun to learn Confucianism, which is a great progress for these ministers to Confucianize the emperor.

It's a pity that they don't understand Li Jiancheng at all, and Li Jiancheng continued: "Therefore, I especially advocate the people-oriented spiritual proposition, and ask you to follow suit!" This is the relationship between the king and the people. So what is Social Governance? As far as I understand it, the community is a qiē system composed of the land of the country, and this society is the country and the people present! ”

Li Jiancheng said slowly, and the ministers present also listened, but they still didn't know what Li Jiancheng was going to say! Although Li Jiancheng boasted that Mencius's scholarship was a great progress, it did not seem to have anything to do with the subject that Li Jiancheng had just said. Li Jiancheng said: "So I have a question today that I want to ask you. I said that this society is you, then you replied to me, if this society dies, what will happen to you? ”

Li Jiancheng's words made the ministers present not know what was wrong, and the sudden change of attitude was too big, he said that everyone was a social and social and that the social group died, what does this mean? The first assistant of the cabinet first asked: "Your Majesty, I don't know what Your Majesty means. ”

"Huh! What do I mean, don't you understand? Didn't I say that the society was about to die? Li Jiancheng said bluntly and loudly, and his tone was a little angry!

As soon as Li Jiancheng's words came out, he couldn't help but make the Manchu civil and military agitated, and everyone didn't know how the emperor said such a thing. Li Jiancheng didn't explain, he directly asked Wang An to take out a fold and hand it to Fang Congzhe, Fang Congzhe was very puzzled, he picked up the fold and was shocked when he saw it.

He lost his voice and said, "This... It can't be..."

The ministers didn't see the reason for his appearance, but their doubts became even more serious, what the hell is going on? At this time, Han Kuang also asked, "Shoufu, what is the matter?" ”

Fang Congzhe knew that this matter was going to be planted in the hands of the emperor, so he handed Zhou Kuang and said, "See for yourself!" ”

Han Kuang looked at it and exclaimed, "What! The whole territory of Liaodong was lost, and Shenyang and Liaoyang were all lost! ”

Han Kuang read out this explosive news, and the Manchu Dynasty immediately exploded. At this time, everyone understood what the emperor said about the big thing, compared to the British public being divided into a piece of idle land and the loss of the entire Shenyang, it was a big deal!

There was chaos in the court, Li Jiancheng felt irritable, and then Wang An shouted 'Silence', and everyone quieted down.

As soon as it was quiet, the military department Shangshu urged Jing Rong to believe it at first, he stood up and said: "Your Majesty, this... Is this true? Liaoyang and Shenyang are really lost? ”

"Hmph, lost or not, as the secretary of the military department, you came to ask me? What did you do to eat in the morning! Li Jiancheng scolded angrily, and Jing Rong was speechless when he was scolded by Li Jiancheng like this. ”

In fact, this can't be blamed on the fact that the military department didn't know about it, in fact, he Li Jiancheng completely blocked the news of this piece after he got the military power in Liaodong, and the military department naturally didn't know about it. Li Jiancheng wants to make a fuss in Liaodong, how can he not block the news of Liaodong? Urging Jingrong to eat Yellow Lotus dumbly this time, he doesn't necessarily have to put the responsibility on the emperor!

At this time, the ministers all knew the strictness of the matter, but there were still some people who did not see the form clearly. You must know that the emperor did everything he said! The situation in Liaodong was completely arranged by the emperor, and the failure in these aspects was a blow to him Li Jiancheng! In that case, why did the emperor still say these things at this time? Why is it still possible to lose your temper with the courtiers at this time?

There are many people who don't recognize this situation, among which Sun Shenxing, Li Ruhua and other Donglin backbones looked at each other, and Sun Shenxing came out first and said: "Your Majesty, as far as the minister knows, Shenyang and Liaoyang are all fortified fortresses, and there are at least 100,000 soldiers. At the beginning, when Xiong Ting Congee was stationed, the thieves and soldiers could not break the city, and now the city is lost, and the minister thinks that he has a heavy relationship with the Liaodong guards. ”

Sun Shenxing's meaning is obvious, he is going to hold the Liaodong battlefield responsible. As soon as Sun Shenxing said that those imperial historians also began to speak, Zhou Rupan, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, said: "Your Majesty, at the beginning, Your Majesty personally ordered Sun Chengzhong to go to Liaodong to supervise, but now the entire territory of Liaodong has been lost in less than half a year, and the minister thinks that this person must have an unshirkable responsibility!" ”

This Zhou Rupan was a member of Zhao Bingzhong's list of Jinshi in the twenty-sixth year of Wanli (1598), and he was selected as a scholar of the Hanlin Academy and awarded a review. In the 40th year of Wanli (1612), he was the chief examiner of the Jiangxi Township Examination, and was transferred to the right concubine, in charge of the Economic Bureau. In the first year of the Apocalypse (1621), the right attendant of the Shengli Department also learned from Li Jiancheng. This person is much better than Sun Chengzhong's ups and downs, but Li Jiancheng was a little displeased when he heard his words, and he said: "Liaodong's loss of power naturally has an unshirkable responsibility for the Liaodong Jinglu that I ordered, and I don't need you to teach me this!" Moreover, the loss of Shenyang and Liaoyang is irretrievable, and now I want to talk about how to keep the remaining territory of my Ming Dynasty! ”

Li Jiancheng spoke strangely, but that Zhou Rupan was indeed scolded by the emperor. The emperor's words were a little incomprehensible, and at this time, the new Zuodu Yushi Yang Lian spoke, and he said: "Your Majesty, although Jiannu has occupied Liaodong now, it has never reached the point where it can threaten my Ming Dynasty." Please don't be negative, it is a matter of time before you use the power of my great Ming to eliminate the troubles of the Northeast! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, Wei Chen also thought that this was not the time to be held responsible. At this moment, the army should be reorganized to seek fighters! At this time, Zuo Guangdou also stood up and spoke. The two newcomers in the court are really getting more and more out of the way when they speak, although Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou's words are sideways, they are indeed seeking to get closer, which can be regarded as a breath of fresh air.

"Hehe, if you can really do this, why do you bother so much? How far is my Ming Dynasty going for thousands of miles? How many thousands of people in my Ming Dynasty are? If everyone works together, Nurhachi will have a chance? Master Han, you read out the twists and turns aloud, tell these people present, and tell me how the 'Sheji' of the sù I lost my country! Li Jiancheng finished the last few sentences, and these words also made Han Kuang, who was holding the fold, tremble.

Han Kuang, who looked at those recitals, could understand why Li Jiancheng replied to those previous words, Han Kuang took the recitals and read: "On March 5, the Houjin army came to the city, and Nurhachi came in person. At the same time, Xu Xianchun, director of the Foreign Intelligence Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense, discovered that a large number of merchants in the city had collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, and had been smuggling military supplies to the enemy country for a long time, and that a large number of Liaodong officials were involved. Nearly half of the officials and soldiers at the east gate of Shenyang City rebelled, opened the city gate and let the enemy in, and the city of Shenyang was broken! (To be continued......)
