When the first year of the Heavenly Dao was approaching, a large number of mobile poor people suddenly appeared in the land of Jiangnan Fish and Rice Country, which had just been conquered by the Ming Empire. Drag children and daughters, help the old and the young, or push a wheelwheel, carry some only belongings, or carry a rag baggage. There was a numb and helpless expression on his face, and there was perhaps a little hope in it.

There are so many people, there are so many people, almost the official road leading to Lin'an City is congested, like a torrent, about to rush to the front of the new emperor. The Son of Heaven will never turn a blind eye, right? And everyone doesn't have too many requirements, they just hope to continue farming, don't leave the countryside, and don't ask for any land, as long as those military masters don't drive tenants.

The landlord quit the tenant, which was taboo in the previous dynasty! Unless it is a villain who deceives the lord and does not pay the rent despite the bumper harvest, even the government is against quitting. Because to quit the tenant is to cut off the livelihood of the tenant's family.

"There are so many people, they all go to Lin'an, and they really won't be stabbed?"

"How can you get a knife? Didn't the talents say that the law does not hold the public accountable, and 100,000 people and 200,000 people avenge their grievances together, even the saints can't ignore it, right? ”

"Yes, we are just petitioning for justice, those military households have forced so many hard-working people to die, and they are not allowed to avenge their grievances? Which royal law is this! ”

"It's right to listen to the talents, people are well-informed, if it weren't for the new dynasty, most of them would have been admitted to the Jinshi."

"When will this new dynasty open the imperial examination? The current officials are too unreasonable, and they are still the officials of the past......"

Poor peasants from all over the south of the Yangtze River gathered together to move forward, all of which were organized by Xiucai from all over the country.

Of course, the Xiucai who led the team is not Cuoda, who was born in a poor family, and all of them are talents from famous families in Jiangnan. Now although it is dilapidated, it has lost its net worth. There is no way to advance in the imperial examination. But their prestige in the countryside is still there. They are all from a righteous family that has been inherited for at least a hundred years. The prestige established over the years, even after the Ming Dynasty smashed most of the righteous gates, still did not dissipate.

"Sir, is it really okay to make trouble like this?"

Liu Laosan's son Liu Sheng, now with more than 1,000 poor households from Linhai County, Taizhou, has arrived on the south bank of the Qiantang River. Fang Sixiu had already arrived first, and had found a temporary camping place for them in advance, and had prepared a lot of rice and grain for the big guys to eat.

And when the poor households in Taizhou were camping, Liu Sheng, who was dressed in filial piety clothes, had quietly arrived in front of Fang Sixiu. Liu Sheng has read books after all. Naturally, I know how risky it is to make such a fuss now. The poor households below are naturally not accountable to the law, they just want to beg for food, and Chen Shengren will not kill them if he is unreasonable. But as the person who leads the trouble, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to have any good end, right?

"Are you scared?" Fang Sixiucai stood on a high place, looking at the people who were camping on the bank of the Qiantang River with his back hand, and his tone was a little gloomy. "For example, today, you have embarked on the evil road, abandoned the holy path of Confucius and Mencius, and revived the Mani cult! The court does not think about the common people. Abolish Confucius and Mencius to promote evil ways, do not practice benevolent government, and do not rest with the people. He also insisted on going his own way and was reckless. How is the unprovoked use of troops in all directions, and what they do is different from that of the Mongol Tatars? I am a scholar. In this world, shouldn't you stand up? Speak out for the common people in the world? ”

Obviously, this Fang Kesi is a Confucian idealist! His goal is not only to be an official. It is also necessary to revive the way of Confucius and Mencius, so that Confucianism will once again become the manifestation of Chinese learning!

And this time, the Confucian scholars who gathered together with Fang Kesi to incite the people and set off this Confucian revolutionary, which was called "the world's first broad, truly mass, and political proletarian revolutionary movement" by Ulyanov, a revolutionary of the Datong Party of the Divine Heavenly Dao State in later generations, were also some scholars full of Confucian ideals!

He paused for a moment, looking at the majestic Lin'an city wall in the distance, as if he had thousands of emotions: "What Taishi Gong said before his death: There are no dead, how can you call the future; If there is no survivor, why should the river come...... Now that it has been almost a year since the martyrdom of the Taishi Gong, it is the turn of those of us who are latecomers to come forward! ”

“…… Our Kesi has been reading the books of sages for more than 30 years, although he has not achieved great success, but he also knows that Confucius and Mencius Dao need us and other scholars to defend and publicize it one after another. In the past, the way of Confucius and Mencius could become a manifestation of learning, and it was passed on to future generations, which was fought for by countless sages who defended the Tao and fought for it. And now the Confucian and Mencian avenues are not obvious, and the Manichaean cult is open, that is, the scholars of our generation do not have the ability to defend the Tao and the courage to martyr like the sages and princes. Fang is not talented, and he does not have the ability to defend the way and eliminate demons, but he does not lack the courage to be martyred. I am willing to follow the Taishi and not hesitate to die to summon the future! ”

'This is probably a saint, isn't it?' Liu Sheng looked at Fang Sixiucai, his face was full of admiration and admiration, and he bowed deeply, "Mr. Gaoyi, the students are admirable, I am willing to follow Mr. and die with his body!" ”

Fang Kesi shook his head and looked at Liu Sheng gently, "Shengzhi (Liu Sheng's name), you are still young, and you have not reached the Confucian and Mencian Avenue, and you don't know what it means to sacrifice your life for righteousness and kill yourself." This time you don't need to be martyred, you have to keep a useful body as a backstart!

If our generation wants to revive the road and lead China back to the right road, there must be people who are martyred and people who want to be in the future. The martyrdom of the Taishi summoned Ke Si and others, and Ke Si's martyrdom will definitely be able to summon more uplifters! ”

Could this be that Jia Nidao has fallen, and thousands of Jia Nidao have stood up?

"Sir's words, Liu Shengyong took it to heart." Liu Sheng saluted respectfully again, and when he straightened up, his eyes were already full of tears.

Fang Kesi nodded heavily, "Shengzhi, from today onwards, you will be my student." This time, I will be martyred, and when you will be martyred in the future, don't be greedy for life and afraid of death. ”

"The teachings of the gentleman must be remembered by the students!" After Liu Sheng said this, he already knelt down respectfully on the ground.

Now, thousands of Jia Nidao have risen! Even if this revenge movement is brutally suppressed in the end, Fang Kesi's ideals will spread because of the sacrifices of everyone.

Perhaps, Fang Kesi will also become a saint admired by Confucian scholars in later generations, just like Jia Rudao!

"Good!" Fang Kesi was silent for a moment, he knew that he was likely to be martyred this time, but martyrdom would also win him an unimaginable posthumous name, just like Jia Rudao!

"Shengzhi, you are my disciple, and now you are going to pass down the Great Dao as a teacher!"

Liu Sheng trembled and looked up at his teacher.

Fang Kesi said in an almost sacred tone: "My avenue is in the Book of Rites. Rites and Fortunes: The road is also a trip to the world. The selection of talents and abilities, the belief and harmony, so that people do not only kiss their relatives, do not only have their sons, so that the old have the end, the strong have use, the few have grown, the widows, the lonely and the sick, all have support. Men have a share, and women have a home. If you abandon the goods on the ground, you don't have to hide them for yourself; The power of evil does not come from the body, and it does not have to be for oneself. It is because of the conspiracy to close but not to prosper, to steal and thieves not to do, so to do not close the outside household, it is said to be the same. ”

Liu Sheng was stunned, he naturally read the "Book of Rites" and knew Confucianism. But this kind of Confucian harmony, in his opinion, is just talk, and it can't be done at all.

Fang Kesi seemed to guess Liu Sheng's thoughts, and just smiled faintly: "Manichaeism has a bright and pure world, to sweep away the darkness and illuminate the world, Chen Dexing's "Taiyi Light Sutra" also has an earthly heavenly kingdom, saying that the products are extremely rich, and everyone does their best to take things according to their needs. But now that he has the world, he connived at the military and landlords to retreat and drive out the poor, and he used military force to conquer all directions. So...... Now is the time for my generation of Confucian scholars to sing the song of Datong! ”

……

Lin'an Mansion, Geling Palace.

Chen Dexing, who was on a southern tour, was holding a meeting with senior officials from the two Zhejiang provinces and some accompanying officials.

As a time-traveler, Chen Dexing actually has historical limitations. His views on Confucianism and Jiangnan Yimen were influenced by later generations. I always think that the foundation of Confucianism and Jiangnan Yimen is the "landlord class intellectuals", and they always have to represent the interests of the landlord class. Therefore, it is impossible for them to integrate with the people at the bottom, and this "campaign to redress grievances" is just using the people at the bottom to make trouble, and it will not become a big climate.

And letting more than 100,000 people gather on the edge of the Qiantang River is actually deliberately done by Chen Dexing. Lure the snake out of the hole! Letting these people stay in the countryside is an unstable factor, so it is better to hook them out and then arrest them all together to repair the Jiang Capital.

As for the broken doctor hidden among them, Chen Dexing also ordered the secret agent bureau to secretly investigate, and the general list has been mastered, and when the time comes, let the secret agent arrest people, as for the crime...... The guys from the Spy Bureau will definitely arrange it! When the time comes, a group can always be killed, a group captured, and a group exiled.

After such a sweep, the ground in the south of the Yangtze River will be much cleaner, and it will be possible to use this as a base to send troops to conquer southern India and open up the new continent of Mingzhou.

Thinking of this, he admired his resourcefulness a little.

At this time, Liang Chongru, the prefect of Lin'an, and Xie Youfang, the governor of western Zhejiang, walked into the semi-idle hall used by Chen Dexing to discuss matters.

Liang Chongru bowed, and said in a steady tone: "Sage, there are more and more displaced people gathered on the south bank of the Qianjiang River, and it is estimated that there are more than 100,000 people. ”

However, dozens of hundreds of scholars were able to summon so many people, and a trace of worry slipped on the civil and military faces in the semi-idle hall.

Xie Youfang also saluted, "Sage, the Governor's Mansion of Western Zhejiang has mobilized eight brigades of elite soldiers, and you can drive across the Qiantang River to get people at any time!" ”

The eight brigades mentioned by Xie Youfang are actually all so-called "military household brigades", and they have two official names, which are called the town guard division in peacetime and the town guard brigade in wartime. Both the military households and the sergeants in the township are under their jurisdiction (in fact, they supervise training and are responsible for recruitment). They are also responsible for recruiting new recruits and suppressing local skirmishes. And the superiors of these town guards (brigades) are the governors of the provinces. This time, the "enemy" that Chen Dexing had to deal with was only more than 100,000 displaced people, so naturally he didn't need the powerful Six Armies and Eight Banners, and it was enough to dispatch the town guard brigade. (To be continued......)
