Chapter 172: The world is in turmoil
Fang Xiaoru and He Xi's respective political opinions have a great constraint on them, but they are the foundation of their power in the court.
For the same problem, Ding Xian only has surgery but no Tao. In Fang Xiaoru's view, such a person is waiting for him. And Zhu Yunwen and Ding Xian are the most compatible, it is precisely because things gather like people and divide them into groups.
Fang Xiaoru supports Zhu Yunwen, and he is also very entangled in his heart. After all, who let Zhu Xiongying have been polluted by He Xi. There is no sacred learning in the heart.
He didn't have a choice.
Fang Xiaoru didn't believe that Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't understand it.
Although Fang Xiaoru has always wanted to support Zhu Yunwen to take the position, he also has a deep understanding of Zhu Yunwen's shortcomings, so Fang Xiaoru has always had doubts about Zhu Yuanzhang's sudden closeness to Zhu Yunwen. I don't understand why.
And now he suddenly understood.
This is raising Gu.
Fang Xiaoru secretly said in his heart, "I don't know, who of them is whose whetstone."
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks it is absolutely impossible." Suddenly, an old minister came out of the queue and said.
He Xi looked over, it was none other than Du Ze. This is an old minister, and he is also a Confucian minister, and his official position is not high, but many etiquettes in the court are formulated by him. He knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, it is the foundation of the world that is not easy to be the heir, and today is unfortunate, the prince has passed away, and Your Majesty has established the eldest grandson. And the two people are divided, so that the officials of the world are not careful, so that the brothers can not kiss, and even make the kings light the heart of the court, and there are three disadvantages in one policy, all of which shake the foundation of the world. The ministers are dead, and they dare not obey the edict."
"Please retract your order."
He Xi nodded secretly in his heart, there are still people who understand in the Ming Dynasty.
If Zhu Yuanzhang does this, it will set off a dispute over the succession, which can be met in the future, and the dispute for the succession will surpass the dispute over changing the law and become the most important contradiction in the imperial court. It caused constant disputes within the imperial court. As for the relationship between Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Xiongying's brothers, the relationship is not good now. But if Zhu Yuanzhang decides who will be the prince, the other person may be able to survive.
But Zhu Yuanzhang acted today and determined that there was a high probability that one of the two would die.
As I said before, King Yan felt that everyone sat in rows according to the elder system, and divided the fruits, although he was not convinced, but the rules were the rules, and there was nothing to say. Now I suddenly found out that you are only like this to us, not to others.
Naturally, the kings were not convinced.
More importantly, the elder system drawn up by Zhu Yuanzhang is almost gone.
It's just that I don't know, what Zhu Yuanzhang wants is chaos in the world. For the sake of his political ideals, Zhu Yuanzhang did not hesitate to send the world to the altar.
For this matter, He Xi has mixed feelings every time he thinks about it. I don't know how to admire Zhu Yuanzhang's decisiveness and ruthlessness, or I think that Zhu Yuanzhang is more stubborn the older he gets. It seems to be a common problem of the elderly.
Zhu Yuanzhang said indifferently: "I have made up my mind, so I will not say anything."
"Your Majesty, even if Your Majesty wants to test the two imperial grandsons, you must not let the imperial grandsons go out." Du Ze said: "The former Yuan ordered the prince to go out of town, causing all kinds of troubled times, Yin Jian is not far away, please be cautious."
If the two emperors and grandsons are in Beijing, the most extreme result is just a fight in the capital and a battle in Xuanwumen. There is also a limit to the number of people who die like that. But if the dispute between the two emperors and grandsons spreads, it will not be a Xuanwumen change, and it will be over.
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care at all, and said, "That's all for today." Get up and leave.
Du Ze wanted to chase after him, but was pressed to the ground by the guards. Du Ze struggled desperately and said, "Your Majesty, this is going to cause chaos in the world."
Zhu Yuanzhang's footsteps paused slightly. But then he went on firmly.
The prince is here, and Zhu Yuanzhang can still hope for the prince. The crown prince is gone. Who can Zhu Yuanzhang hope for? Since no one can be trusted, he must arrange everything before he dies, so that Daming can move towards a new era and irreversibly move towards a new era.
------
After Zhu Yuanzhang returned to the Qianqing Palace, he immediately summoned Zhu Xiongying and He Xi.
Zhu Yuanzhang stepped back and asked Zhu Xiongying, "Have you seen it all?"
Zhu Xiongying said, "I've seen it."
Zhu Yuanzhang said, "What do you think?"
Zhu Xiongying opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn't seem to be able to say anything, so he sighed again and again before he sighed and said, "Grandson has a lot of ideas, but he doesn't know what to say for a while?"
Zhu Yuanzhang said, "What do you think of the change?"
Zhu Xiongying said: "The law must be changed, and as soon as possible, the sooner the better."
Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Why do you say that?"
Zhu Xiongying said: "Confucianism can't save the world, if Confucianism can, the Zhao family won't be so miserable. Only the new law can save the world, and even if my family loses its authority in the future, it will be able to end up, and it will not be like in history, almost extinct. In addition, our firm change is because the imperial grandfather has seen it with his own eyes, and through such a thing, I have seen my uncle with my own eyes and know that my uncle is not ordinary. But what will the people of the future look like? Our generation is gone. Who would believe in such a thing? I would just think it was a strange thing. It's not believable at all, and naturally no one will believe it. No one is determined to change the law."
When He Xi heard Zhu Xiongying say this, his heart moved slightly, and his gaze at Zhu Xiongying was a little different.
He didn't think that Zhu Xiongying looked at the problem from this angle.
Not bad. The reason why Zhu Yuanzhang is so firmly in favor of the change is not because he saw He Xi crossing in front of him with his own eyes, and felt that He Xi's arrival was his destiny.
What is this destiny?
Naturally, it is to promote the reform of the law, so that China can transcend the dynastic cycle law of more than 1,000 years.
This is his destiny.
It is precisely because of this feeling that Zhu Yuanzhang will do whatever it takes. Even the lives of their children and grandchildren were sacrificed.
But others, would they think like this?
Even Zhu Xiongying may not have such a belief. After this failure, even if He Xi's books are handed down, how many people will believe it? After all, history has been bifurcated from the Hongwu Dynasty. He Xi was able to win the trust of Zhu Yuanzhang before, but he may not be able to win the trust of later monarchs. It may even be used as a fallacy to confuse the public.
It's like Wang Mang is a traverser.
Just joking about it in private. If someone really publishes all kinds of evidence in historical journals to prove that Wang Mang is a traverser. That's the real joke.
Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Yes, it's my grandson."
Zhu Xiongying said, "It's just that there are some things that my grandson doesn't understand."
Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile, "Say."
Zhu Xiongying said, "Did the imperial grandfather show the second brother something?"
Zhu Yuanzhang said, "What about it? What if you don't see it?"
Zhu Xiongying said: "If the second brother has seen it, he should call the second brother to come over today, and the brother will lose his money. If the second brother hadn't seen it, the grandson wouldn't understand, why did the imperial grandfather entrust the second brother with a heavy responsibility?"
Zhu Xiongying looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, although he didn't say it explicitly, but he had a state of being unyielding.
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, although he admired Zhu Xiongying's momentum as a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers. But Zhu Xiongying is still too tender. I really thought that the Ming Emperor could do everything.
No, he is Zhu Yuanzhang in the position of Emperor Ming and can do everything. And if the Ming Emperor was not Zhu Yuanzhang, there would be very few things he could do.
If he, Zhu Yuanzhang, could be twenty years younger, he wouldn't have to make such a decision.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang did not deny Zhu Xiongying's idea, but said: "This matter, after you go back, think about it carefully, when will you figure it out. You've really grown up."
Zhu Xiongying could only say sullenly, "Yes."
Zhu Yuanzhang said, "What are you going to do after you go to Beijing?"
Zhu Xiongying said: "Promote the new law at all costs."
Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Okay. Remember what you said. Let's go down and prepare." As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang heard Zhu Xiongying say this, he knew that He Xi did not tell Zhu Xiongying the truth completely, so Zhu Xiongying didn't know, Zhu Yuan
What does Zhang want?
Zhu Xiongying glanced at He Xi and knew that Zhu Yuanzhang had something to say to He Xi. And he bowed and departed.
Zhu Yuanzhang said, "He Xi, do you think Xiongying can be successful?"
He Xi said, "The minister thinks that the eldest grandson of the emperor will definitely take over the mantle of His Majesty."
