Chapter 21 Justification
Tang Yin was dumbfounded, but even if Zhu Houwei's analysis was the head, he still didn't think so, although he was disappointed in the examination room, he was a literati after all, and he still considered the problem from the standpoint of a civil official in his bones.
In his eyes, the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty is the pinnacle of power, and several elders of the cabinet are the prime ministers and deputy ministers of the dynasty.
The Ming Dynasty produced a Wang Zhen, and finally died tragically in Tumubao, as for Wang Zhen's cronies, he was beaten to death directly in front of the emperor by civil officials in the court!
The eunuch is powerful, An can fight against the Manchu Dynasty, if you want to follow Wang Zhen's old path, the final outcome is Zuo Shunmen!
As for Ren Xing, who also heard this, he shuddered, unlike Tang Yin, he trusted his master 100%, and it was unconditional trust.
"Ome, do you think that if someone keeps saying bad things about you in the ears of this king, so that this king wants to kill you, whose words are the easiest to make this king murderous?"
"Hong ...... Hongji ......"
Zhu Houwei laughed and said: "If you are Liu Jin, then who is Hong Ji in the court?"
"Zhang Yong!" Ren Xing exclaimed!
Zhu Houwei said with a smile: "This speculation is just the words of this king's family, don't remember to spread it."
"The slave understands." After Ren Xing finished speaking, he deliberately glanced at Tang Yin, which meant that it was absolutely impossible for him to spread the word, if there was a rumor outside, then the ghost inside would definitely be you.
Tang Yin directly chose to ignore this look, although he has no merit but is also a gentleman, how can he do such a leak.
"Companion, you go and arrange for the merchant who borrowed the king's silver to come to the palace."
Ren Xing took the order and left, and Zhu Houwei said solemnly: "It seems that Bohu is quite disdainful of eunuchs."
Tang Yin sneered: "The eunuch is crippled and greedy, once he takes power, he will harm the world!"
"Then do you know why most kings in ancient times liked eunuchs but not ministers?"
Tang Yin suffocated and said: "Because the eunuchs are closely accompanied, they like what the king likes, avoid the evil of the king, and because they are close to the king and constantly talk about the mistakes of the ministers, like the evil woman blowing the wind on the pillow, over time, subtly, it will naturally make the king forget what a gentleman is and what a villain is!"
Zhu Houwei smiled lightly: "What Bohu said is reasonable, but in ancient times, there were evil eunuchs, and there were only those, even if they could control the emperor to abolish the Tang Dynasty, these eunuchs never really thought about killing the Li family, because they knew that their roots were in the royal family, and without the royal family, they were wild dogs on the side of the road, and anyone dared to step forward and kick them."
But what about civil officials? Since the Han Dynasty respected Confucianism, the right to speak in the court has been completely controlled in the hands of Confucian ministers, ministers are ministers, monarchs are monarchs, the family and the country are in the world, and the family is in front of the country.
Qin has Li Si, framed Fusu for personal gain, and finally died in the second Qin Dynasty, Han has Jiang Chong and Wang Mang, Jin has Wang Dun, Tang has Niu Li, and Song Dynasty has been favored to the extreme, but Cai Jing and Qin Hui are notorious through the ages, and I am Ming to expel Meng Yuan, the righteousness of the country, unique, and the same kind of Wenchen, but Hu Weiyong, Chen Ying and others are also despicable.
There has never been a shortage of righteous ministers in the world, who are willing to kill themselves for the sake of the society, and there is no shortage of ministers who would rather be martyred than sell themselves to thieves when the country is broken, but more are ministers who have no integrity and welcome the new lord.
For these ministers, the world is still the world, even if the court has changed generations, but it is just a change of master, they can still change the object of kowtow, but they can still be clothed and fed, they can still be powerful, and they can still keep the glory of the whole door, so what is the apostasy?
Bohu thinks that when the dynasty changes, are there more people who sacrifice themselves to become benevolent or more who sell themselves to seek glory?
Therefore, in the eyes of this king, although the eunuch is evil, even if he does bad things, for the royal family, the destructive power is limited after all, and once the Wenchen is corrupted, it is not uncommon to abolish a generation of prosperous dynasties. ”
Tang Yin took a deep breath and said, "The king is high, and his subordinates have been taught."
At this moment, Tang Yin felt that he was not facing a fifteen-year-old boy, but a wise man who had insight into the world, as if he could break through all the haze and penetrate the essence.
However, Tang Yin also heard the taste in Zhu Houwei's words, which was that King Yong did not reject eunuchs, but was extremely disgusted with Wenchen, or Confucian Wenchen.
Fortunately, it is Emperor Zhengde who is sitting on the dragon chair in the Forbidden City now, if this lord sits in the Dragon Court, Tang Yin can almost conclude that the good days of the ministers will basically come to an end.
But Tang Yin is also a Confucian scholar, as a member of Confucianism, he has to argue: "After all, the governance of the world depends on Wenchen ......"
Zhu Houwei shook his head and said: "This king does not deny that many Confucian ministers are full of sage books, known as a belly of learning, but too many Wenchen Hao is poor, and in the end even if he becomes a county official, but he has to rely on the master to deal with government affairs, how many officials do not know arithmetic, do not know how to manage money, and in the end can only rely on small officials to exercise their powers, so that the small officials can gain power, oppress the people, and run rampant in the countryside, such as a tax official can make small businessmen bankrupt, such as a servant dares to let the good people dare to be angry and dare not speak, the world accumulates disadvantages to the officials, it is really not a lie."
"Is it biased that the king attributed the world's evils and the rise and fall of the dynasty to the officials?"
"Since the Qin Dynasty, a unified dynasty has been three or four hundred years long, and the second has died, which seems to be a reincarnation of fate, but what is the root cause? To put it simply, my Ming Dynasty has been hanging for one hundred and fifty years, if it is calculated by three hundred years of country replacement, how many years are there in my Ming Dynasty, if the Ming Dynasty died, why did it die? ”
This is too bold to say, and it can even be said that if it is not for the descendants of the Zhu family, anyone who changes it will be the end of the family and the extermination!
Tang Yin's surname is Tang Ke, not Zhu, he only hates himself now why he was not deaf just now......
Zhu Houwei smiled dumbly: "Bohu doesn't need to be nervous, what he said today is from my mouth and from your ears, and no third person will know."
"My subordinates understand." Tang Yin raised his sleeves to wipe his sweat.
"In Bohu's eyes, what are the disadvantages of my Ming Dynasty that can lead to the destruction of the country?"
"The subordinates don't dare to speak up."
"Today's heart-to-heart, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
Tang Yin understands now, today Yongwang is to weigh his foundation, as a staff member, he can't just know how to write and paint all day long, Yongwang wants to see his knowledge and know his ability.
Such days are not easy to come by, and after a little thought, Tang Yin finally turned his heart sideways!
He's going to take a gamble!
If he wins the bet, with the relationship between King Yong and Jinshang, he may not have the opportunity to avenge his grievances and return to the field!
