Chapter 46: Create an enemy without an enemy

Qin Xin'er's ability to do things is actually not strong, but she is just a middle-aged person.

However, judging from her age and gender, it looks very outstanding.

Mu Zhi didn't expect to find a sleeping dragon and phoenix chick just by looking for it, it didn't exist.

This was originally a eunuch martial arts, and Qin Xin'er, the granddaughter of the prime minister, had no chance to appear in the original.

There is no human right in the dragon set, and it is impossible to add many settings to her.

Fortunately, the things that Muzhi gave her don't need too strong ability to do well.

After all, the shepherd is to give benefits, and there is no reason for the widows of those generals not to accept it.

And these widows also have their mothers, relatives and friends, and their support means that they also have the power to support the pastor in the court.

Coupled with the prime minister's lobbying of officials who had lost their children and grandchildren, officials who supported the advancement of women soon outnumbered opposition voices in the court.

The new Ministry of Rites Shang Shu trembled angrily: "You and others tamper with the laws of your ancestors for your own selfish interests, although you can cover the sky in the court with one hand, is it possible that you can still block the mouths of the world?" ”

He was obviously angry and didn't choose to speak.

The ministers of the six ministries of the imperial court, and the bosses of other important positions are basically following Mu Zhi now, even if they do not support Mu Zhi's various measures in their hearts, they will not disobey Mu Zhi in the general direction.

Only the Ministry of Rites Shangshu inherited Bao Dengfan's will and resolutely opposed the reform of Muzhi.

Makiyuki can understand it.

In the final analysis, the Ministry of Rites is the etiquette of Confucianism, and every policy of the Ministry of Rites is aimed at Confucianism.

Therefore, the people of the Ministry of Rites must stand on the opposite side of the Ministry of Rites, unless the Ministers are willing to transfer them out of the Ministry of Rites.

It's a pity that Makiyuki didn't have that idea.

A group of nerds who only know how to study etiquette and rules may not be bad people, but they are really of little use to the country.

Other departments don't need this group of people either.

So, they don't have a choice.

Some other ministers saw that Muzhi's face was a little unsightly, and they came out one after another to accuse the Ministry of Rites:

"Presumptuous, above the court, how can you be allowed to talk nonsense."

"Your Majesty is above, Ye Shangshu should be cautious in your words and deeds."

"The emperor is the sky, who can cover the sky with one hand?"

Looking at these lackeys, Ye Shangshu trembled angrily, and he said tremblingly: "Qianqiu Divine Essence, ruined by Yusi, you and others are all sinners. ”

After saying this, Ye Shangshu directly hit the pillar in the main hall.

There was an exclamation in the middle of the court.

But Makiyuki didn't even lift his eyelids.

Sure enough, Ye Shangshu had just rushed two steps before he was stopped.

In the current imperial court, it is not for nothing that someone has cut himself, how can an old arm and leg like Ye Shangshu succeed in committing suicide.

Mu Zhi said lazily: "Ye Shangshu, if you really want to commit suicide, go home and commit suicide again." In the court, you don't even have a chance to succeed in suicide. ”

Ye Shangshu's face turned red.

Anyone who has committed suicide understands that the moment they commit suicide, they are full of courage.

But once rescued, a second suicide is rare.

Some things can only be passed with a grit of teeth and direct impulse.

After the reason is restored, there is no way to do it anymore.

So although Mu Zhi's tone was full of mockery, Ye Shangshu was speechless and couldn't say anything to refute.

"It's boring, resign, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites will make up for it."

Muzhi waved his hand: "It's all gone." ”

It is clear that those who protest are not taken into account.

But they still have no way to do it.

Night.

Ministry of Rites Shangshu Mansion.

The former Ministry of Rites gathered a large number of opposition parties to discuss a way to stop Makiyuki.

But in the middle of the night, nothing came out.

In the end, Ye Moumou, the former secretary of the Ministry of Rites, looked up to the sky and sighed: "The sage misunderstood me, the Confucian classics are all singing praises to the emperor, and we can only let him do whatever he wants." ”

The people of the Ministry of Rites are best at quoting scriptures.

As a result, they were stunned and did not find a way to stop Mu Zhi from the Confucian classics.

As believers, they are hurt.

At this time, a mediocre seven-rank petty official in the Ministry of Rites spoke: "Lord Ye, I think that relying on the current Confucian classics, you can't stop the emperor, so you can only find another way." ”

"What's your solution?" Ye Shangshu asked.

He still considers himself a scholar of the Ministry of Rites.

Most of the Ministry of Rites are old antiques, and they also respect Ye Shangshu's straightforward advice, so they still take him as the leader.

Qipin Xiaoguan looked at Ye Shangshu and said word by word: "Re-note the classics." ”

When Ye Shangshu heard this, his eyes widened instantly.

The others were stunned.

After a while, the scolding rang out: "Presumptuous." ”

"The sage's subtle words are righteous, how can you comment at will?"

"Countless great Confucianists have the current situation of Confucianism, how can we do such a big thing."

The reason why these people are emotional is because they understand the deep meaning of this seven-rank petty official's words.

Since there is no restriction on the emperor in the Confucian classics, let's add some restrictions on the emperor's content.

In the name of the saints.

This is naturally a distortion of facts, but the pen of a literati is like a sword of a warrior, and there are still few distorted facts since ancient times?

There are many old scholars who can't accept this kind of thing, they really regard the Confucian classics as heaven and cannot be changed in the slightest.

And a bureaucrat like Ye Shangshu, who had been a second-class official, was shocked after being surprised.

Once the taste of power has been tasted, the scholar can no longer be pure.

In the past, Ye Shangshu also had a strong belief in the Confucian classics, like these opponents.

He still believes.

But if in order to achieve the end, he does not mind using some means.

"Re-investing in the classics is indeed a feasible approach." Ye Shangshu said slowly.

The others looked at Ye Shangshu in shock.

How come you, the leader of the old school, have also rebelled?

Ye Shangshu has his own reasons: "If we don't make changes, then we can only watch the faint monarch collapse the etiquette of the country's governance, and the people will not be able to make a living." For the sake of the well-being of all peoples, even if we misinterpret the holy will, we will not be blamed if we come to Confucius. Ladies and gentlemen, we are also doing this to save the country. ”

There is the smell of "leading the knife into a fast".

Ye Shangshu's reason persuaded many people.

After all, his identity is here.

"If we do do that, where do we start?"

Ye Shangshu looked at the seventh-grade petty official.

The seven-rank petty official looked calm: "Naturally, it starts with restricting the imperial power, it is enough to have ministers in the world to discuss governance, the emperor is good to be a mascot, what does he know about governing the country?" ”

The atmosphere in the room instantly became extremely quiet, and even a little tense.

You can even hear each other's heartbeats.

And the seven-rank petty official silently bowed his head, and the corners of his mouth hooked.

It doesn't matter if you don't have enemies, brother creates enemies himself.
