Chapter 69: The End of an Era

Su Boheng has been sick for a while. Huang Guan is taking care of him. Many people in the Su family were in the south and didn't come here at all.

After all, Su Boheng came to the north with some intention of going his own way.

There is only this disciple around.

Fang Xiaoru was full of rejection, which was also the biggest incident recently, and naturally reached Su Boheng's ears. After Su Boheng heard this, he laughed a few times and couldn't breathe. And he went.

The relationship between Su Boheng and Fang Xiaoru is not too close. But Su Boheng is still angry about Fang Xiaoru's attack on him to repair history. It's just that he didn't expect that Fang Xiaoru would be today.

So, by the time He Xi knew the news, it was no longer the news of Fang Xiaoru's death. There is also the news of Su Boheng's death.

This couldn't help but make He Xi feel a little melancholy.

He Xi remembered that he had been in Daming for more than ten years. This Ming is less and less like the Ming in the history books. In He Xi's hands, it is already a new era. There are only some ideas that adhere to the original, so that He Xi knows that he is still in the Ming Dynasty, not a new world.

To be honest, He Xi thought about it countless times to convince Fang Xiaoru. But I never thought that no matter how the world changed, Fang Xiaoru would inevitably end miserably, which was probably the end of a scholar who insisted on morality in troubled times.

It is Feng Dao who can really play in the troubled times.

For Fang Xiaoru, it is really a king who prospers with this, and he will die with this. Because he endured humiliation and tried to find a way to oppose the new law, colluded under Zhu Yuanzhang's nose, and wanted to set things right, he won the support and support of many scholars. It is precisely because of this that when the national policy needs to be changed, Fang Xiaoru must also use his blood to prove Nanjing's determination to change course.

He Xi secretly said in his heart: "I don't know if Fang Xiaoru can say it before he dies, and now and in the future, he can have no regrets? And before I die, can I ask myself that question?"

Fang Xiaoru has been determined since he was a child, and he has been unswerving. Until you die because of this, you shouldn't have the original intention. Such a life, in the eyes of others, may be extremely miserable, but it gives Fang Xiaoru a chance to be reborn. He still has to do the same thing, it's just a matter of success or failure again.

Die without complaining, die without regret, and die without resigning. That's probably the kind of person I'm talking about.

He Xi sighed and personally wrote a note to the Ministry of Rites. He asked the Ministry of Rites to give Fang Xiaoru a name, preferably Wenzheng.

He Xi has sympathy for the enemy, but he will never spoil the country's major affairs because of his personal feelings. He did it for a reason.

The first reason is that Fang Xiaoru's reputation is known to the world, and Fang Xiaoru's death will definitely make waves in the hearts of the people of the world. At this time, it is natural to add fuel to the fire. It doesn't matter how Fang Xiaoru is. The important thing is that if Nanjing kills people, they will praise it.

In the end, it was held to the sky, and it didn't even have anything to do with Fang Xiaoru himself.

What kind of enemy is a good enemy, is an enemy who is already dead. Anyway, Fang Xiaoru is already a dead person, and he will not come out to argue, so He Xi feels that he will start the god-making operation, so that everyone in the world will know how high and bright Fang Xiaoru is.

That's the kind of thing, Fang Xiaoru started underground again, and he didn't know that.

In essence, Fang Xiaoru's posthumous name has become a tool for Beijing and Nanjing to compete for the supremacy of public opinion.

It doesn't matter what the idea is about the tool. The important thing is what the tool is for.

The second reason is naturally to win people's hearts.

There have been some changes in the social level of the Ming Dynasty because of the war.

At the end of Hongwu, there was no major war, and the class of scholars and scholars became larger and larger, which was also the power of civil officials in the imperial court system. After the war, there was a change, that is, the importance of martial arts increased, so in the imperial court, the voice of civil officials declined.

However, this change was only at the level of the imperial court, and the social structure did not change.

Except for Beijing and Liaodong, the model of small-scale peasant economy is still the most common. That is, the scholar is an indispensable part of the Ming court's rule of the place, which is not at all

There is a change. Historically, during the Yongle period, Jing Nanxun was so arrogant, and Emperor Yongle was so harsh on civil officials, but he still couldn't stop the momentum of the rise of civil officials.

This is the basis of society.

These people are all wholeheartedly supportive of Fang Xiaoru. It is the basic plate of Fang Xiaoru. He Xi just wanted to use Fang Xiaoru's posthumous events as an introduction to push out this force. Let them have a good fight with Ding Xian.

He Xi is actually not optimistic about these scholars?

Without him, these people are too loose. It seems that there are many people, but there is a faction in the inner faction. No one is convinced of anyone. When you meet a ruthless character, you can't go a round. This is not just about Ding Xian, but about many people in history. The pen can't fight the handle of the knife.

It has been the case since ancient times.

These people will also have to be cleaned up in the future. Just let him clean up, wouldn't it be dirty He Xi's hands, it would be better to borrow a knife to kill people and give Ding Xian some stumbling blocks.

It's a win-win.

So with the support of He Xi.

There was a large-scale memorial to Fang Xiaoru in Beijing, and even found a few people, saying that they had heard the teachings under Fang Xiaoru, and asked them to compile a collection of Fang Xiaoru's writings. There are countless articles criticizing Ding Xian, secretly accusing Zhu Yunwen of killing Shi Yunyun.

The reason why it is secretly rubbed. It was these scholars who had long been domesticated by the imperial power, and did not directly criticize the emperor's habits and guts.

Even if they dare to point out the emperor's problems, they will use a curved pen. Instead of writing so bluntly, explicitly referring to Ding Xian and implying Zhu Yunwen, it is already their limit.

When this good scene came out, there were already a few scholars running over from the south.

This also made He Xi feel very good.

In comparison, people all over the world used to say that Beijing was rebellious, but now some scholars have come to defect, which shows that Beijing's image in the hearts of the people of the world, especially the image in the hearts of the readers under the command of Nanjing, has been very different.

And that's a good thing.

However, there were many things about Ding Xian in Nanjing, and Zhu Xiongying couldn't help but summon He Xi. I want to have a good talk with He Xi.

------

A gazebo in the Royal Palace.

Zhu Xiongying did not wear a dragon robe, only a casual dress. The same is true for He Xi. The two of them are here, if it weren't for the palace compound, no one would be able to see that these two people are the core of ***.

Zhu Xiongying and He Xi have partnered for two years, and they slowly know the boundaries between each other. It's a pleasure to get along with.

He Xi is in charge. That is, the major events in the world, the establishment of the imperial court, and the financial power are all responsible for He Xi. On this, He Xi will explain to Zhu Xiongying. But how to do it is mainly based on He Xi. And Zhu Xiongying's main power is three powers, the right to supervise. He has the power to supervise everything in the world, and Zhu Xiongying can send someone to investigate and deal with any problems discovered by Zhu Xiongying. He Xi must change. Personnel rights, the placement of personnel in most places. As long as it doesn't affect major events, He Xi will agree. Of course, if it's really not suitable, the two sides will have a good talk. The right to know, He Xi must let Zhu Xiongying know anything he does.

The two also know each other's bottom line. Although it is inevitable to bump into it, it can be regarded as a pleasant cooperation.

It's just that today, Zhu Xiongying is a little uneasy. That's why I came up with this posture to talk to He Xi. That is, not to judge the monarch and the minister, to be open and honest, and to have a good talk.

Zhu Xiongying asked, "Uncle, what do you think of Ding Xian?"

He Xi dug Ding Xian out of the depths of his memory, pondered for a moment, and said, "He is a smart person. But the mind is not right."

At the beginning, He Xi juxtaposed Ding Xian with Huang Zicheng and Lian Zining, but He Xi did not choose it himself. But among all his students, the three of them stood out the most. If you don't pick the three of them, you can't do it. And what Ding Xian did afterwards made him fall into the abyss, but he found a way to climb out of the abyss.

How can such a person be said not to be smart.

But he's too smart. Unwilling to do things in a down-to-earth manner. Instead, I want to climb to the sky in one step. But after so many years, He Xi looks at Ding Xian's style of acting, and it seems that he has not changed this. is more proficient in art, that is, the means of scheming, and does not care about a little bit of accumulation of strength.

made He Xi feel that he was once

Bottom, a little smart. But it's not smart enough.
