Chapter 429: They Are All Voluntary

Zhu Di took the will, only looked down, and immediately remembered.

This will was indeed given by him himself, and it was on this day or two.

Zhu Di glanced at the will, and then handed it over to Yishiha.

also lost his will, so he delivered the will to Yang Rongren and others for circulation.

The ministers were confused one by one, but Yang Rong's face did not change, but Hu Guang frowned and said: "What does this will have to do with Jinyiwei's arrest of scholars for no reason?" ”

Zhang Anshi said with a smile: "Isn't the content of the will very clear?" The "Filial Piety Facts" edited by the Hanlin Academy is really good, especially the personal approval of His Majesty's imperial pen, and the ministers are even more embarrassed by themselves, especially the sentence: 'But the righteousness of heaven and earth is not respectful, and the heart is not preceded by filial piety. Therefore, filial piety is the foundation of a hundred lines, the origin of all goodness, big enough to move the heavens and the earth to feel ghosts and gods, and a little enough to turn violent birds and beasts into plants and trees, which are all out of natural principles, not pretentious. "The Truth of Filial Piety" can enable the viewer to do the best for filial piety, spontaneously develop a heart of love, and have the world's religion that is beneficial to the customs of the Ming people in London. ’”

Zhang Anshi paused, and then said: "Such a good book, Your Majesty ordered it to be published, and he also wrote the preface himself, so he has the intention of educating the world. And I, Zhang Anshi, got this book, if I got the treasure, so I played, I implore Your Majesty to continue to increase the number of publications, and hire Confucians and scholars to preach the Quartet, which is not only to educate the world, but also to persuade the world to obey the meaning of etiquette and filial piety, so Your Majesty has granted my initiative, and personally issued an edict to order the Taiping Mansion to supervise this matter, isn't this a good thing? ”

Hu Guang was a little speechless, his eloquence was not as good as Yang Rong's, but you Zhang Anshi also dared to make an axe and spread wild in front of the old man?

Hu Guang suddenly felt a sullen breath in his heart.

So he couldn't help but say, "But this still has nothing to do with arresting the reader." ”

"Who said it didn't matter?" Zhang Anshi said awe-inspiringly: "Not only do you want to preach the Quartet, but of course you want to invite people to go to the West to preach my Ming education, not only in various feudal towns, but also in the Western countries, but also look up to me for the kindness of the Ming Dynasty, but I have no way of knowing the kindness of my Ming Dynasty." Now with this "Filial Piety Facts", it is like a rain after the rain, the way of the saint, based on filial piety, and His Majesty also advocates filial piety, so what is wrong with allowing me to preach in all directions? ”

Hu Guang said with a stiff face: "But you can't take a scholar!" ”

Zhang Anshi said confidently: "I have made a list, I am looking for talents, I hope that there are people who can respond to His Majesty's will to preach filial piety, go deep into the barren land, and preach in all directions, but I didn't expect that they just said what loyalty and filial piety etiquette they said, but when something happened, none of them were willing to do it." ”

Hu Guang's face turned green, and he said, "That...... So what? ”

Zhang Anshi said solemnly: "During the Han Dynasty, in order to promote Confucianism, there were Confucian students like Zhang Qian and Ban Chao, who went deep into the Western Regions to promote Confucianism, so that everyone in the world admired the etiquette of the Heavenly Empire. There is also Su Wu, Su Wu Hu Gong should know, the etiquette can have today, precisely because there are so many loyal, filial piety, and righteous people. ”

"Nowadays, Confucianism is declining, I am in the eyes, anxious in my heart, the Ming Dynasty inherited the system of the Tang and Song dynasties, is the Han family in the world, Your Majesty and Guangxing royal road, advocating loyalty and filial piety, this is a good time to magnify Confucianism, but now ...... When the imperial court was employing people, it recruited Confucian scholars everywhere to go deep into the barren land and broadcast benevolence and righteousness, but no one was willing to apply, you say, is this considered disloyalty? ”

Hu Guang was silent, when a person is more radical than you, although you know that this guy is full of nonsense, but you can't refute it.

Zhang Anshi said: "In addition, what I want to preach this time is "Filial Piety Facts". This book is the first step of filial piety since the Tang and Song dynasties, and it is compiled by countless Hanlin and Confucians. It is also approved by His Majesty's royal pen and personally made the preface. I, Zhang Anshi, have read it, and I still feel it, but these readers have read it, but they have no feelings, and they are indifferent to it. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Anshi stared at Hu Guangdao tightly: "Gong Hu, let me ask you, if even scholars are so indifferent to filial piety, is this ...... If Sage Confucius had a spirit in heaven and learned of his knowledge, he would have been distorted to such a point by a group of disloyal and unfilial people in later generations, and he would have abandoned the word loyalty and filial piety as if he had done so. You say, the sage of Confucius his coffin board...... Are you still holding it down? He's an old man......"

Zhang Anshi's later words could not be continued.

Hu Guang's face changed suddenly, and he interrupted him sharply: "Don't talk nonsense, Sage Kong has nothing to do with it......

Zhang Anshi said with a bit of sarcasm: "If Sage Kong knows that he has become a signboard for a group of disloyal and unfilial people, and a fig leaf for a group of people who only know how to seek fame, even if he comes back to life, he will be angry to death." ”

"Hu Gong, don't change the topic, the matter of Sage Kong is the matter of my Zhang Anshi, and it is also the matter of your Duke Hu. Besides, these scholars, Confucius with their mouths open and Mencius when they close their mouths, are they really encountering things, but they turn a deaf ear one by one, and still indulge in happiness every day, is this unrighteousness? ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Anshi shouted: "Disloyalty, filial piety and injustice, if it is someone else, it can be forgiven." After all, they were not scholars, nor did they read Confucius and Mencius. But these scholars are different, they have read the books of the sages, and they still dare to do such things, what is this called? This is called knowing the law and breaking the law! ”

"I, Zhang Anshi, can't stand it anymore, I can't let them go like this anymore and I'm sorry for Sage Kong, so I ...... I invited them to Jinyiwei, drank a few sips of tea, and taught them loyalty, filial piety, etiquette, and righteousness, what's the matter? ”

He glanced at the ministers with a smile, and then said, "Why, I saw a group of disloyal, unfilial, unrighteous and shameless people, if it is not good to teach them a lesson, is it ...... Do you want to turn a blind eye? If this is the case, my lords, do I still have morality and righteousness? I, Zhang Anshi, want to ask, if even the scholars are shameless and don't want their faces, wouldn't I be as good as a barbarian? ”

"So there is nothing to say, this matter is Your Majesty's will, there must be Confucian scholars to preach in all directions, and to maintain morality and etiquette, Jinyiwei is also duty-bound, if anyone opposes, it is to be in collusion with those who are disloyal and unfilial!"

Hu Guang was a little angry and said, "What are you...... Desire to add sin! Parents are here, not far away......"

Zhang Anshi smiled at this time and said, "Since my parents are here, I won't travel far." So why do so many scholars come all the way to the capital for the imperial examination? ”

Hu Guang pinched his beard and said angrily: "There must be a way to swim." ”

Zhang Anshi said calmly: "Gain fame and chase profit, so there must be a way to travel, so it is impossible to preach the teachings of saints and broadcast benevolence and righteousness?" ”

Zhang Anshi said this, smiled, but this smile added a little mockery, and he continued: "Hu Gong, I advise you to carefully reflect on these dangerous remarks of yours, what you say now is becoming less and less like a scholar, if you continue like this, I will expel you from the saint's door." ”

Hu Guang was furious, his eyes widened, and he glared at Zhang Anshi and said, "Huangkou Xiaoer dares to ...... too"

Yang Rong on the side tugged at his sleeve.

In the end, he came out to play a round game: "I thought it was taking people for no reason, but this is just to recruit scholars to preach, so there is no problem." In this way, it is not impossible not only to broadcast our great wisdom and righteousness, but also to enable readers to read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles. ”

"It's just...... In this kind of thing, how can His Royal Highness the King of Wuhu County use the brocade guard, in my opinion, everyone takes a step back. ”

Hu Guang: "......"

Hu Guang opened his mouth, and finally said nothing.

and all the ministers were silent.

To be honest, Zhang Anshi came to talk about Sage Kong and loyalty and filial piety, which was something that no one expected.

This kind of thing, when it comes to this, I can only scold Zhang Anshi's lack of virtue in my heart for the smoke from the ancestral grave.

Or Zhang Anshi's behavior is really sensational, but ...... People's hearts are good, and they are all for the sake of the saint's education.

But in the values of the ancients, or under the value system of science, people are concerned about their minds.

That is, it is understandable that a moral person does bad things.

And if a bad person happens to do a good deed, this person is also among the most heinous.

Yang Rong smiled and said: "His Royal Highness, in my opinion, this matter is too big, it is better to release people as soon as possible." ”

Zhang Anshi looked at Yang Rong, but said calmly: "Don't worry, I will never embarrass them, and I will definitely send them out with intact limbs in the future." ”

Yang Rong immediately heard Zhang Anshi's send, and added a lot of definite words, and he knew it in his heart, but he also knew that it was not a way to go on like this.

At this time, Liu Guandao, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, said: "The matter of missionary affairs was originally the main duty of the Ministry of Rites, but now it is the Jinyi Guard, which is really inappropriate, or come to a compromise strategy." Your Majesty, old minister...... How about going to Jinyiwei and visiting the people who were taken? ”

At this time, the most important thing is to have a step down.

Especially for a group of indignant people led by Hu Guang.

It is unacceptable for Jinyi to take people.

But if the Jinyi Guard is working for the saints, this ...... Although it is unacceptable, I have to pinch my nose to admit it.

Liu Guan, the old slippery head, stood up and played a round, which made the ministers feel reluctantly acceptable.

Meantime...... After all, this matter is to cooperate with Zhang Anshi, and you can take the opportunity to exchange it with Zhang Anshi, although this time you may not be able to earn money, but you have earned a lot of personal debts, and you will not suffer losses.

The most important thing is that Liu Guan knows very well that he is greedy, lazy and incapable, and the reason why His Majesty let him be ranked in the Ministry of Rites and did not cut him directly is because he is good at collusion, and the court needs such a person who can collude, and he happens to be qualified for this role.

After listening to Liu Guan's words, everyone immediately looked at Zhu Di.

Zhu Di already knew everything, so he stood up, paced slowly, slowed down for a while, and then said: ""The Truth of Filial Piety" is the Book of Filial Piety compiled by the Hanlin Academy, which is the foundation of my Ming Dynasty, the Han and Jin Dynasties ruled the world with filial piety, and the Ming Dynasty also ruled the world with filial piety. Zhang Qing's revelation is shocking, my Confucian students in the Ming Dynasty are not as far away as the Confucian scholars of the Han and Tang Dynasties. ”

"If a person is not loyal and filial, then how dare he claim to be a saint? How dare you say that you have read the books of the saints? This thing...... It is important to pay attention to it, and it must not be ignored, Zhang Qing can comply with my will, which is very good. In any case, I don't plan to take a break in this matter, things have to be done, and it should be done seriously, if not, the world has lost filial piety, then sooner or later the rumors will cause trouble to the country, and the discipline will be gone, and the Ministry of Rites will also assist in this matter, which is the responsibility of the Ministry of Rites. ”

"It's heartbreaking!" Zhu Di said with emotion: "I taste what I say to people, filial piety is the foundation of people, the father has a calf licking affection for the son, and the son needs to always be grateful for the grace of nurturing the father." If people have no filial piety, they are no different from animals. Missionary education is the most important thing in the world, and it is because of my great talent that I have placed school officials in all prefectures and counties in the world to be responsible for missionary matters. ”

"Zhang Qing once said in the book, the world is not subject to the king, the root of which is that I don't know what filial piety is, so that it is no different from beasts, I want to be kind to it, I should promote etiquette and righteousness, promote loyalty and filial piety, these words are very good, now is the time for Confucianism to serve, how can scholars resist this?"

"That's it, there's no need to discuss it! Zhang Qing must deal with this matter thoroughly, and in a few days, I will play it again, and I will know the result. ”

After that, he didn't look at the reaction of the ministers, and directly dismissed the ministers.

When Zhang Anshi came out of the Wenlou, he looked for Liu Guan loudly, and said calmly in front of the retreating ministers: "Liu Gong, you might as well go to Nanzhen Fusi first, Your Majesty has a purpose, so please work harder for Liu Gong." ”

Liu Guan stroked his beard and smiled: "Okay, okay." ”

The ministers on the side silently bowed their heads and left, pretending not to hear anything.

If you hear these things, it hurts to hear them, so it's better not to listen to them!

Liu Guan followed in Zhang Anshi's footsteps, and said as he walked: "Scholars have not suffered. ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Probably not." ”

Liu Guan said: "This is good, this is good, I will go to visit, so that the court and the old man can rest assured." ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Then work hard for Liu Gong." ”

"How dare you call it hard work." Liu Guan smiled and groaned.

Zhang Anshi and Liu Guan left the palace, boarded the carriage immediately, and went straight to Jinyiwei under the escort of the guards.

These scholars are not locked up in the edict prison, this is also Zhang Anshi's order, and they are not prisoners, and they put people in the edict prison, isn't this treating people as criminals?

But if he is locked up in other places, such as Qixia's Thousand Households, then he is not a criminal.

Zhang Anshi got out of the carriage and led Liu Guan into the Thousand Households.

Qianhu had already heard the news and was busy greeting him, Zhang Anshi only nodded at him and said, "Where are the people?" ”

The thousand households glanced at Liu Guan.

Zhang Anshi said: "This is Liu Butang of the Ministry of Rites, and he is his own person." ”

Liu Guan laughed awkwardly, his smile was a little stiff, although he likes to blend, but he will not be a family with Jinyiwei, if this is spread out, won't everyone in the world scold him for his rotten ass?

These thousands of households will know, and they should lead the way first.

All the rooms in these thousand households are connected, and before I walked in, I heard someone inside crying loudly: "Students are willing to go to Tianzhu, students are willing to go to Tianzhu......"

Liu Guan only heard that his scalp was numb, but he still pretended to smile and followed Zhang Anshi calmly.

When he arrived outside the room where he was wailing, Zhang Anshi pointed to the inside and said, "Liu Gong, why don't you go in and see why this scholar is howling?" ”

At this time, the people inside were still screaming: "Ah...... Yes...... Yes......... Students are voluntary, voluntary...... No complaints......"

Liu Guan only froze in place, the smile on his face became more and more stiff, and he saw Zhang Anshi standing aside, looking at him with a smile.

It's just that this smile made Liu Guantu feel like a man's back, but he still smiled and said: "This scholar is quite loyal and filial." Under the influence of His Royal Highness, it is really a great blessing for Confucianism to be able to repent. ”

Zhang Anshi said very casually: "Let's go, go inside and say." ”

Liu Guan hurriedly shook his head and said, "Forget it, the old man eats fast on weekdays, and he can't see blood...... No, the old man thought ...... Let the scholars repent vividly, the old man only looks at the number. ”

"Look at the numbers?" Zhang Anshi was good at talking today, and immediately said to the people on the side: "Come here, arrange for Liu Gong." ”

As he spoke, Liu Guan quickly arrived at the lobby of the Thousand Households.

I couldn't hear those piercing howls anymore, which made Liu Guan's heart feel a little calmer, and after sitting down, the number of thousands of households increased.

Liu Guan looked down and muttered, "A total of three hundred and seventy-two people, isn't ......there a little more?"

Zhang Anshi said: "I'm still too young, and now I'm teaching them to pull some of their fellow villagers and join the gang together in the same year." You also know that such things as indoctrination are not allowed to be careless, and when there are fewer people, they are scattered all over the world, just like a handful of mud and sand into the vast ocean, which is really a drop in the bucket. On Jinyiwei's side, the number of posts scheduled is 10,000. ”

When Liu Guan heard this, the whole person suddenly shuddered, but he smiled and said, "It's not unreasonable...... However, is there too many people? According to the old man, there are seven or eight thousand, which should be able to deal with it. ”

He Liu Guan is not a kowtow worm, he is a backbone, at least he bargained with Jinyiwei.

Zhang Anshi said: "Let's look at it again, there is no other good way at the moment, but to take one step at a time." ”

Liu Guan continued: "Of these three hundred and seventy-two people, there are already three hundred and sixty-five people, who have signed and drawn the pledge, are they willing to go to the four seas? ”

Qianhu on the side suddenly looked at Liu Guan vigilantly.

Zhang Anshi looked up at the thousand households and said, "After one night's hard work, so many people agree?" Will there be anything greasy? ”

Qianhu has not yet answered.

Liu Guan pressed his hand and said with a smile: "It's not easy, it's really not easy, it seems that Jinyi Wei is very effective, too diligent." ”

Zhang Anshi said: "This is not their credit, the main thing is that the sage is educated, the readers at first just couldn't think about it for a while, but now they are willing to work hard for loyalty and filial piety, it can be seen that my Ming scholars, all of them are good, not inferior to the Han and Tang Dynasties." ”

"Ah...... Yeah. Liu Guan's face was full of red light, and he shook his head and said: "Your Highness's words really coincide with the old man. ”
