"Changing the ancestral system without permission and withdrawing the guards into the state and county, this is a weakening of our national defense, and its crime is also a crime!"

"Privately set up military generals, with scattered titles and disorderly duties, this is to mess with my dynasty, and its two crimes are also!"

"Detaining the Son of Heaven, the position of the Void Ninety-Five, this is bad for my society, and its three sins are also!"

"Greedy for people's wealth, fabricating charges, and harsh scholars, this is an invasion of my world, and its four crimes are also!"

"With these four sins ahead, do you still want to go north in Central?" Qian Qianyi listed one, two, three, four, and always felt that there was something else missing. But the so-called one-off momentum, he just wanted to use this momentum to wake up Yuan Shu, and he didn't care if there was any omission.

Yuan Shu listened quietly, got up and arched his hand: "Mr. Mu Zhai, I'm afraid there is still one missing." ”

"Oh?"

"Disobeying the Holy Religion and using the name of punishment to punish the herdsmen is treacherous to me in China, and the crime is great." Yuan Shulang said.

No matter how great the other sins are, they are not as great as the sins against Confucianism. In the Ming Dynasty, scholars and doctors only had the concept of political power, not the concept of the state, and even the concept of the nation was very vague. The Huayi defense they advocate is more of a cultural system, not a bloodline. As long as the ruler promotes Confucianism, the scholar class can cooperate with him, and vice versa, the public enemy of the world!

"Exactly!" Qian Qianyi was excited: "What Central said is very true! Knowing that the prince has no way, does Central still have to go north! ”

"It is precisely for this reason that the cardinal has to go north with his comrades, support the holy car, and go against the grain." Yuan Shu said awe-inspiringly.

"Central is wrong!" Qian Qianyi's face was full of pain: "This is a self-inflicted move!" A certain talent, but he also knows that the gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, and the gentleman is going to go now, and he will inevitably be trapped by the reverse reserve, how can he defend the holy car? At this time, only Nandu condemned. Shu can protect the holy drive. ”

"Denounce in Nandu?" Yuan Shu shook his head and said: "When I was reckless, I didn't hear anyone who condemned and returned to the country. I would like to die to admonish Bixia to set the record straight. People with lofty ideals, be clear about my heart. ”

The atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty dictated that life and death were far lighter than righteousness. Dying for the sake of righteousness was quite popular among scholars. It is often necessary to fast and bathe, say goodbye to the family, explain the aftermath, write a testament, and then calmly die with the support of old friends and family members. In order to show their understanding and admiration for this noble conduct, relatives and friends should also wait for the aftermath to be completed.

History proves that Qian Qianyi himself is categorically unwilling to come to this point, but it does not prevent him from yearning for and admiring this kind of behavior.

In fact, if someone now accuses Qian Qianyi of being afraid of death and refusing to do his best for the Ming Dynasty. Qian Qianyi will definitely be truly indignant at this slanderous statement, and he is absolutely confident that he will be able to embark on the road of righteousness and awe-inspiring at the juncture of Zuihou and achieve the name of loyalty.

Seeing Yuan Shu say this, Qian Qianyi had no choice but to say: "Since Zhonghuan is resolute in his ambitions, he can only wish you a safe journey, influence the stubbornness, persuade the Holy Son of Heaven to denounce the villain, and return to the court as soon as possible." ”

Yuan Shu nodded emphatically. I want to say goodbye.

Qian Qianyi didn't stay and personally sent Yuan Shu out. When I returned to the study, I still sighed with my palms.

After a while, a beautiful woman stepped into the study and called softly: "Master, why are you sighing alone?" ”

Qian Qianyi looked up and saw that it was his concubine Liu Rus, and his sorrow suddenly dissipated. Said: "Yuan Boying is here, saying that he is going north to defend the holy car." The husband thought that he was in the mouth of a tiger this time and could not protect himself. Hence lamentation. ”

Liu Ru has always had the reputation of "sexual alertness, courage and strategy", often made men's crown clothes, discussed current affairs with Jiangnan celebrities, drank and sang peace. Although Qian Qianyi was thirty-six years older than her, he often consulted her on political matters. rushed to Nanjing from his hometown this time, and Liu Ru accompanied him, like a friend of the scene.

"Master," Liu Ru sat down next to Qian Qianyi, "the concubine thought she should go." In the end, the emperor is orthodox in the other, and there is a clear decree to summon the ministers of the southern capital to go to the line to listen to the use. If you go and are trapped, you will succumb to them. I don't go, but it's my reason. ”

Qian Qianyi smiled lovingly and said, "You still see a woman." How can there be a battle in the court? As a husband, he is too fond of the saying of 'gentleness and frugality', so he will be defeated in the hands of Wen Tiren's villain. Over the years, every time I sit and think, I hate that I can't fight that day, so that the Ming Emperor is mistaken by the villain! ”

"Master, if the ministers of the Southern Capital go to Xing, will they still be able to block all of them?" Liu said: "Above the court, isn't it also the same to be heavy and light? ”

"A small number of people is only one side." Qian Qianyi shook his head and said: "I also want to talk about the word 'root'." For the bigwigs in the court, the protégé is the foundation. If the foundation is sufficient, it can control public opinion and promote politics. Such as Xia Yan, Xu Jie, Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng and other famous ministers, all of them. On the other hand, Wen Tiren and Zhou Yanru were defeated because they had no such foundation.

"As far as military generals are concerned, such as Zuo Liangyu, Fang Guoan, Zheng Zhilong and others, their roots are in the hands of military generals. As long as the soldiers do not disperse, it is a feudal town. If you enter his army, you will enter the enemy's country, and your life will be in your hands. Therefore, not only did the rebel prince not dare to go to Huguang, but he also did not dare to call the soldiers of these feudal towns. Those feudal generals naturally disdained to ignore King Qin's decree.

"And for my husband to get a crime in a political dispute, although he was pardoned, but he has no real position, why do the high-ranking officials of the court discuss with me? It's also because of the roots! Qian Qianyi said, quite proud.

"The master's reputation is naturally extremely high."

"It's not just fame." Qian Qianyi shook his head and said: "This fame is just a void, and eight out of ten stops are sedan chairs carried by people and carried out."

"My so-called foundation is the Jiangnan squire, the powerful family, and the wealthy family!

"The court will levy grain, and the fields will be in the hands of these people;

"The court will be forced into service, and the people will be in the hands of such people;

"The court wants officials, and the scholars are in the hands of such people;

"The imperial court wants sea taxes and commercial taxes, which sea ship is not the assets of these people, and which business does not have the silver taels of these people?

"That's the real thing. As long as there is a foundation in hand, after the court is fortunate in the south, it will naturally be able to act calmly, drive out the villain, promote the gentleman, and then open up the situation of the Zhengying Dynasty, and recover the mountains and rivers as soon as possible! ”

Liu Ru's eyebrows jumped slightly, and said: "What the master said today is really deafening!" ”

"Yufu Mountain has been hidden for more than ten years before he understands the art of this king. Alas, alas, such a truth cannot be revealed. Qian Qianyi sighed regretfully: "As long as all the ministers of the southern capital work together to cut off Shandong's money and grain, how many days will the reverse energy storage last?" Don't you have to go south obediently? Now they are going north one after another, but they are abandoning their roots and letting people eat meat. It's even more regrettable that there are also southerners who don't want to be happy in the south, for fear of raising taxes and apportionments, and they are really mediocre! ”

Liu Ru suddenly became agitated and said: "Master, a few days ago, when the concubine heard a piece of news, she only thought it was nonsense, so she didn't take it to heart. ”

"What's the news?"

"Someone secretly instigated to establish a prison state in Nanjing."

"I have learned about this, it is the foolishness of Gao Hongtu, Lu Daqi and others, and I don't care about them." Qian Qianyi's face was displeased, and he was also sad that it was difficult for Donglin's signboard to gather people's hearts.

"However, some people say that it was the old man who proposed to establish a foreign domain as a prison country, thinking that the Holy Son of Heaven was aiding." Liu Ru said cautiously.

Qian Qianyi was shocked and angry when he heard this, and shouted out in a gaffe: "This is true! ”

Liu Ru nodded and said: "Some people say that because the lord saw that he was guilty of sin, he would inevitably not be able to use it after the court was fortunate in the south, so he secretly contacted and established the vassal king to supervise the country, seeking to take a prominent position, and made the holy car dare not go south." ”

Jiangnan celebrities love famous prostitutes, which is the trend. Liu Ru is the head of the fat powder class, and she has many sisters who are concubines and friends in the Jiangnan Famous Scholars' Mansion, and she can often reveal a lot of insider information in her conversations, which is also her main source of information. In addition, there is also the news that she obtained directly from befriending celebrities, and no one will be wary of a woman who is famous for her talent, and she is naturally extremely reliable.

Qian Qianyi knew that the source of his concubine's information was reliable, so he sat down in a trance, and said sadly for a long time: "The fool still underestimated those villains!" I don't want them to go so far! How can we and other gentlemen talk about the prison country when the holy car has not returned! Isn't this a thief and a thief? ”

"Master," Liu Ru stepped forward and gently shook Qian Qianyi's knee, "Since it wasn't the master's idea, we naturally have to say it out loud, so as not to be accused by those villains!" ”

"It's just rumors, and it's a futile argument, I'm afraid that people will say that it's a weak heart......"

"Bulletin!" Liu Ruye's eyes fell on the newspaper: "Since the reverse prince has the "Huangming Circular" for him, why can't the master run a "Junzi Daily" and "Shilin Daily"? How much money does it cost to run this kind of newspaper? We're all out for nothing! Let's see who else can spew blood! ”

"Qingqing is really high!" Qian Qianyi was immediately overjoyed. (To be continued......)
