Chapter 682: The Essence of Playing a Rogue

Chapter 682: The Essence of Playing a Rogue

The possibility of implementing the rule of law in Daming is almost zero. It's a distant goal, but Chen Xie has to plant a seed. Don't talk about the dynasty, even in modern times, isn't studying to be an official civil servant still a favorite choice for most ordinary people?

Chen Xie patiently told these people this because they were teachers. Plant a seed in their hearts that will yield fruitful results in the future. The famous court ministers, dressed in civilian clothes, sat among a group of teachers and talked to them with a pleasant face. This scene is destined to become a memory for these people for a lifetime.

"Lord Cabinet, since you said that you want to abide by the law, why can the people of Liaodong and Dengzhou disobey the orders of the government, isn't it a contradiction?" Someone suddenly asked, and now it was quiet with a swish, and you could hear a needle falling to the ground. Qian Wenda in the back was directly frightened and paralyzed, what kind of bastard is this, how dare you ask such a question.

Everyone looked at the voice, only to find that it was not the voice from this group of teachers, but from the corridor, a man in a green shirt, wearing a square scarf and holding a folding fan, dressed as a standard Ming scholar. The person who came looked in his thirties, behaved elegantly, calmly and slowly went downstairs, walked towards Chen Xie, and a cadre of teachers unconsciously got up to make way, as if he was impressed by his demeanor.

Chen Xie got up slowly and arched his hand: "Dare to ask Brother Taifu!" The person who came arched his hand: "Don't dare, Taicang Wu Weiye." %”

In Shilin of this era, Wu Weiye belonged to a famous poet, but unfortunately this kind of person was of little use to Chen Xie, so he never befriended him. In fact, if the two really want to get in touch, there are still many opportunities. Chen Xie can't look down on him, what does he have to like Chen Xie?

Wu Weiye, the word Jungong. No. Plum Village. A famous poet in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, he wrote a lot, so I won't introduce them one by one here.

Chen Xie didn't have a good impression of this guy, why was this happening? It has to do with this man's experience. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the party struggle in officialdom was fierce, and Wu Weiye's career suffered a lot of setbacks, so he resigned and returned to his hometown. You must know that Chongzhen has the grace of knowing him. When the empire was in danger, he chose to go home to hide and relax, even if such a person was talented, Chen Xie was disdainful. That's all, after the Qing army entered the customs in history, this guy actually came out of the Shunzhi for ten years, and the reason was that he was afraid of death. Putting aside his temperament, he doesn't care about it, and his personal emotions are quite fucked, and the victim Bian Yujing is the evidence. There is also the issue of Wu Sangui welcoming the Qing army into the customs. This product is characterized as "rushing to the crown and being angry for the red face", it is really a fast watch that I bought last year, dare not be so?

A typical literati with literary talents and undisciplined ability, how good is his work ability, this is not a good evaluation, in terms of utilization value, it is not as good as Qian Qianyi. Such a person, Chen Xie can ignore him. But if he jumps out to find a draw himself, then he will naturally be unkind.

Wu Weiye at this time. It should be in his early forties, well-maintained, and he looks like he is thirty-four or five. In terms of age, Chen Xie is similar, and after a polite sentence, Chen Xie took the initiative to ask: "Dare to ask Your Excellency." During the period of Xizong, the people of Susong resisted donations and anti-endowments, and Zhang Tianru, a fellow countryman, made "The Tombstone of Five People", can you still remember this matter? ”

As a member of the Restoration Society, Wu Weiye certainly remembers this incident. He even raised his head very proudly and said: "In the past, my colleagues in the restoration of the society, how can I not remember the feat of fighting against the eunuchs?" ”

Chen Xie smiled, waved his hand and said, "Okay, you can go." After Chen Xie finished speaking, he turned around, Wu Weiye was stunned at first, lowered his head and thought for a moment, and his face was like a cloud of fire, he couldn't help but open his throat and shouted at his back: "What, how can the two be compared?" ”

Chen Xie turned around and smiled disdainfully, in stark contrast to Wu Weiye's anger. After laughing, Chen Xie was about to turn around again, but Wu Weiye couldn't help but step up and reach out to grab his placket. I didn't want a young guy to flash out of the oblique stab, and with a bang, the katana at his waist was drawn, and the cold light flashed, Wu Weiye's legs were weak, and he took two steps back before standing firmly.

"You, you, you, the eunuch party is in chaos, how can you compare the matter of Dengzhou in Liaodong?" Wu Weiye blushed his neck, but still shouted, as if to embolden himself. Chen Xie turned around again, and in front of the teachers, he said lightly and unhurriedly: "Forget it, you haven't figured out the nature of the two, in order to prevent you from continuing to make mistakes, I'll tell you today." ”

As soon as Wu Weiye heard this, he immediately came to his senses again, and he was afraid that this martial artist would not succeed, so he immediately arched his hand: "Ask for advice!" ”

At this time, a few more people came down upstairs, also in Confucian shirts, and slowly stepped forward with anger on their faces, standing behind Wu Weiye. Chen Xie saw Chen Zilong in the middle of this group of people, and wondered why he was still staying at home and not going to be an official.

"Wei Zhongxian is a disaster for the Ming Dynasty, and he sent an envoy to Jiangnan to loot, which is indeed a mess, but you have to figure it out. Putting aside the rights and wrongs of this matter, in terms of the law alone, Wei Zhongxian did not break the law, but it was Jiangnan Shimin who disobeyed the order. Speaking of Dengzhou, Penglai County wants to move to Zhangjiazhuang, why should it occupy the private land under Chen's name in vain? Is it because he is an official? Can officials be above the law? Are you not princes who have sworn the law and are guilty of the same sin as the people? As for Liaodong, the imperial court taxes and forced labor have their own fixed number every year, and the people have done it one by one, and they are not bad at all, and they are slightly rich. The government still wants to increase taxes, is the Ming decree a decoration? If the local government wants to increase the endowment, it will increase the endowment? This move is not as good as Wei Eunuch's life, this is the real violation. You don't even understand the basic laws, and you're talking to me about the law here? ”

Whether it is Donglin or Fusha, it has never been a group of people who talk to you about the law. Their most advantageous weapon is a mouth. No matter who you are the enemy, the most common method is to first smear a person, stand on the moral high ground to discredit a person, and then keep piling up dirty water until someone stinks. This is very effective in the civil service system, because the collapse of the civil service is very much worse than morality. No matter who the Donglin Party looks at is unhappy, it is such a routine. In many cases, they don't want evidence at all, just some things that catch the wind and shadows, and give people hats. Relying on the control of public opinion, it has been tried and tested.

When it comes to moral standards, it is true that some people in Donglin and Fushe are not bad, but this does not mean that all of them are. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the people in Donglin, Jiangnan, who really stood up to resist the Qing army, counted all the slaps. Forget about enduring humiliation and stealing life, these people don't forget to smear powder on their faces and pour dirty water on other people's bodies, which is the most disgusting thing. Of course, it can't be generalized, Donglin and Fushe, after all, are the "elites" of this era, and there are many literati among them who have preserved their national integrity. It's a pity that there is no Wu Weiye here. Even if he loses all his national integrity, Chen Xie will not treat him as well, the general environment is like this, and the cultural people themselves are very swaying, not to mention the lives of a large family behind him. What disgusted Chen Xie the most was "rushing to the crown and being angry".

Wu Weiye didn't expect Chen Xie to say such a thing at all, they were used to what they said, and they were used to others never winning when they quarreled with them. Compared to fighting, they don't have the guts, and there is no pressure to fight. All in all, he was overconfident, and he thought that Chen Xie had no chance of winning.

The result is naturally speechless in the face of logical and well-organized words. Wu Weiye was dumbfounded, because he really couldn't answer, Chen Xie's words were not wrong at all, how could he refute it? "Rent, abolition, withdrawal of envoys, and cessation of internal exercises" are the political propositions of the resumption of the society, if you really want to be more serious, which one is not illegal? Although they were illegal, they represented the interests of the landlords, gentry, and merchants in the south of the Yangtze River, such as the "Wujiang surname", and echoed the struggle of the burghers in this area, so they had a fairly broad social base at that time.

These things don't work now, the landlords and gentry in Jiangnan, which one doesn't do business? As long as you are in business, you will not dare to offend Chen Gebu, nor will you dare to disobey his decrees. Even if it is a small person in the market, he will not listen to them now, and the first thing that comes to mind is what is said in "Ming Pao", what the storyteller in the teahouse restaurant says, and what is sung on the stage.

Of these propaganda channels, none of Chen Xie has been left behind, Liu Jingting, the most famous storyteller in Jiangnan, is still receiving an allowance from a certain bank. Ninety percent of the opera gardens in Nanjing are operated by a certain bank in the back. What to act or not to act, what the storyteller says, what the people hear and see is what they hear, and naturally it will be greatly affected. Without the backing of public opinion, these so-called Shilin leaders are now a group of people who close the door and play themselves. It's like Hollywood and Europe, one is rushing to the market to make a lot of money, and the other is doing "art" at home behind closed doors. The so-called film art has a relationship with the original egg of the movie? If you don't have a market, no matter how much you exalt yourself, you're still a bunch of garbage that few flies patronize.

Looking at Wu Weiye, who couldn't answer, someone behind him was anxious, and stood up and said: "Cabinet, want to be a eunuch?" ”

It was a young scholar who spoke, and after saying a word, the faces of everyone at the scene changed greatly, and a middle-aged man immediately stood up and scolded: "Shaft, is there a place for you to speak here?" After scolding, he arched his hand at Chen Xie and said: "The dog is not in shape, please also ask the cabinet Haihan." ”

At this time, a group of instructors stared at this young man with angry and fierce eyes, and by the way, they also glared at his father. Chen Xie smiled, made a gesture of calmness, and slowly walked in front of the father and son, during which Wu Weiye subconsciously stepped back when he was passing by.

Standing in front of the father and son, Chen Xie smiled and asked, "Mr. Taifu?" Where is the fairy town? ”

The answerer was an elder, and he arched his hand: "Don't dare, Huating Du Linzheng." Dog Dengchun, young and ignorant, offensive, please also Haihan. "As a father, I really regret calling this kid today, it was supposed to be a party, and I came to visit Xia Yunyi of Zhixian County by the way. Unexpectedly, Wu Meicun had nothing to do, and even if he provoked Chen Xie, he was speechless, it was because he was at a loss, and he didn't dare to play a scoundrel with Chen Xie. Unexpectedly, the young Du Dengchun learned the essence of playing a scoundrel, and buttoned Chen Xie's hat as soon as he opened his mouth. (To be continued......) R1292
