In the pre-Qin classics, the original meaning of the gentleman did indeed refer to the son of the king.

So, Hai Jui is right.

It's just that Hai Rui's words have the correct meaning of letting the scholars suffer the most grievances, which is similar to Zhang Juzheng's words of "being willing to be a straw mat for the people of the world to lie down".

Although Hai Jui's philosophy is to hope that the corporal doctors in the world will be selfless and willing to make the greatest sacrifice for the community and the common people.

But it is undoubtedly difficult to get scholars to accept and practice this concept.

Shu Hua had to say urgently: "It's not a pity to die!" But Your Majesty must not believe Otsuka's words, if An Min does not settle first, it will only make the country uneasy! ”

"Your Majesty!"

"The sage said: 'A gentleman has no end of food, and if he violates benevolence, he will make a time, and he will do it.'" If the scholar just let the Son of Heaven treat himself with kindness first, and not let himself be wronged first, then he is not a gentleman, but a villain! ”

Shen Li also said at this time, and said: "Because the son of the king is like the son of a family, the common people are children, and the son of heaven and the queen are parents, so how can there be a reason to be disrespectful and wronged by parents, and how can there be a reason to be unkind and wronged to children?" ”

Shu Hua's eyes were like fire, looking at Hai Rui and Shen Li, who were very hateful and pedantic in his opinion, and said for a while:

"Your Majesty, they are the treacherous villains who bewitch you, and they should be punished!"

Zhu Yijun didn't plan to reconcile at this time.

Because the conflict of ideas has been impossible to reconcile since ancient times.

Even many times, some people give him great benefits and make him unwilling to betray his ideas.

Therefore, Zhu Yijun only looked at Shen Shixing at this time: "Yuanfu, you are my master, what can you say to me." ”

"Your Majesty has been in power, your Majesty has been pro-government, your Majesty has no words to teach, Your Majesty only needs to follow your inner proposition!"

"The way that Your Majesty believes in your heart is the way of heaven, otherwise, Your Majesty is not the Son of Heaven and cannot be mandated by Heaven."

As soon as Shen Shixing's words came out, some ministers couldn't help but scold "flattery", and some ministers couldn't help but sigh "incisive." ”

Those who say flattery naturally feel that Shen Shixing is obviously welcoming the imperial power, attributing the right to interpret the principles of heaven to the Son of Heaven, and deliberately letting the emperor rule alone, doing his own thing, which is very irresponsible to the world.

Those who say incisive think that Shen Shixing's words are indeed reasonable, since the Son of Heaven exists, there is an objective reason for his existence, and he should be both a secular leader and a spiritual leader, otherwise wouldn't there be two sons of heaven in the Ming Dynasty? A secular Son of Heaven, a Son of Thought.

"Makes sense."

Zhu Yijun nodded to himself, and suddenly looked at Hai Rui and Shu Hua seriously: "What you two say is unrealistic and is a big fallacy!" ”

Hai Rui and Shu Hua both had shocked looks on their faces.

"What Haiqing said is wishful thinking, how many people in the world can destroy people's desires and are only willing to wronged themselves? If I ask Shilin as Qing said, I am afraid that Shilin will be hypocrites! ”

Zhu Yijun looked at Hai Rui first at this time and expressed his opinion.

Then, Zhu Yijun looked at Shuhua again: "And what Ling Shuhua said, he took his Shilin too seriously, but the two Song Dynasty treated the scholars very well, why did they still die?" ”

Shu Hua hung his head silently.

"How can an Anshi be more important than the people?"

"Can Shi represent the common people of the world?"

"Since ancient times, I have only known that there are people who have died because they did not treat the common people well, and I have not heard of those who died because they did not treat Shilin well."

Zhu Yijun spoke again.

Shu Hua opened his mouth to argue, but he didn't know what to say for a while, so he only looked left and right, hoping that other ministers would stand up.

But the courtiers of the court turned a deaf ear at this time.

Influenced by Shen Shixing's previous words, they either admitted that it was better for the current interpretation of the sage's religion to be attributed only to the Son of Heaven, or they did not dare to say much because of the power formed by the alliance between the Son of Heaven and Shousuke.

What's more, Zhu Yijun expressed his disagreement with Hai Rui's point of view, which also made the courtiers feel that there was no need to fight with the Son of Heaven for the right to interpret the sage's religion at this time.

Otherwise.

No one can say for sure, whether the Son of Heaven will simply turn to support Hai Rui and Shen Li, and set higher demands on the scholars, so that the scholars will really be the slaves of the world.

Zhu Yijun continued at this time: "Of course, as Shen Qing said, a scholar is a gentleman, and I should treat him with kindness, and I will not treat him unkindly, otherwise I am afraid that you will vent the resentment generated here on the people; The previous reforms have been clearly proven, once the new policy of the imperial court has made you suffer, many of you do like to transfer this grievance to the people, so if I want to reassure the people, I have to consider your feelings. ”

"But!"

"It cannot be said that it is more important to be kind to you than to be kind to the common people! It has always been the people who are most likely to rebel, and I treat you well for the sake of the people, so you Shuhua deliberately misled me, so that I would treat you well if I was wronged, and the people should also be kind to you, which is simply abandoning the society and disregarding the safety of the people, and only thinking that you Shilin yourself can be a master! ”

"Although Hai and Shen Erqing's arguments are unrealistic, in the end, they are not for themselves, but for the country and the people, and in essence, they also put the people in the first place, so although I do not support them, I do not oppose them, I will not kill them, and allow them to demand this from themselves; But what you say is selfish for yourself. ”

Zhu Yijun pointed to Shu Hua as he spoke, and said sharply: "His heart is not unpunished!" ”

Zhu Yijun said here: "Spread the decree, take away the post of the secretary of the Shuhua Criminal Department, give the crime of death, what he has learned is not correct, investigate his family, his teacher and his protégé, the three generations of his family are not allowed to take the imperial examination, the three generations of his teacher are not allowed to take the imperial examination, and the three generations of his protégés are not allowed to take the imperial examination. ”

"Obey the Divine Commandment!"

Shen Shixing replied at this time.

Shu Hua collapsed directly to the ground and didn't say anything.

Only after a while, he glanced at Shen Shixing with cold eyes: "Gong is more hateful than Haigang Peak!" ”

And Shen Shixing didn't say anything, just stood in place with his eyebrows down.

After Shu Hua spoke, he took off the crown on his head, and then kowtowed to Zhu Yijun: "Sinner, thank Your Majesty for not splitting the car!" ”

Zhu Yijun didn't say a word, only looked at Jiang Zhongxiao: "Jiang Zhongxiao talks about the way of heaven in vain, plots against him, and gives him death!" ”

Jiang Zhongxiao gritted his teeth at this time and said: "Your Majesty gave death, and the minister didn't dare to shout injustice, but the minister refused to accept it!" ”

"Why are you not convinced?"

Zhu Yijun asked.

Jiang Zhongxiao said: "Those who are dissatisfied are Your Majesty, who obviously knows that Li Zhe was instigated by Shen Shixing to instigate Zhang Butang to embezzle Zhao'an Yin without asking, but he only hates the ministers for talking about the way of heaven!" ”

"Zhang Yue only said that Yuanfu was suspected of this in the chapter music, but there was no empirical evidence."

Zhu Yijun replied.

Jiang Zhongxiao said: "Li Zhe may have empirical evidence, why doesn't Your Majesty personally try it, and go to his suspicions, and now he doesn't even ask, obviously there is a suspicion of covering up, how can he convince the people of the world?!" ”

Zhu Yijun smiled slightly: "I will depend on you!" ”

As he spoke, Zhu Yijun said: "Pass on Li Zhe!" ”

Not long after, Li Zhe was escorted to the palace.

Because the impeachment seal submitted by Zhang Yue has been empirically proved that Li Zhe is suspected of embezzling Zhao'an funds, Zhu Yijun has already issued an order to let him be imprisoned.

Therefore, Li Zhe was escorted here from the edict prison by Jinyi Wei at this time.

Before and after Li Zhe arrived at the palace, Zhu Yijun asked: "Are you really instructed by Yuan Fu to ask the governor Zhang Yue to collude with the gentry to embezzle Zhao'an silver and slaughter the rogue who was recruited?" ”

Li Zhe said: "Yes! If it weren't for Yuanfu's intentions, how would the minister dare to do it! ”

The ministers were in an uproar and looked at Shen Shixing one after another.
