The Imperial Study.

Zhang Juzheng saw Guo Tianyi, knelt on the ground and said sincerely, "Your Majesty, you take care of Confucianism, if you don't care about Confucianism, you will die..."

Today's Confucianism is a street rat.

Even the great Confucians moved their families to other places to ensure safety.

Otherwise, if you don't dare to walk down the street, you will be attacked by rotten cabbage leaves and rotten eggs.

There are also bad incidents of people pouring dung water at the door of Confucianism, and it is getting worse.

Even many young students in Guanzhong spilled their resentment on Confucianism because they failed to make the list.

Confucianism's own students did not dare to go out.

Including the new jinshi.

When they came to the land, they found that the people looked at them with colored eyes.

What did the teacher of such and such a student do ten years ago, and how good can the students taught by such a teacher be?

Therefore, once there is doubt in the heart, these people are breathing wrong.

Zhang Juzheng was upright and told all the experiences of Confucianism these days.

Guo Tianyi wanted to laugh when he heard this, but held back.

Jin Yiwei has reported these things more than once.

However, he still didn't care.

Guo Tianyi forced a smile, "Aiqing got up and spoke." ”

"Your Majesty, if you don't care, the old minister will never get up."

"This is too unfair for Confucianism..."

"The minister knows that there are some people in Confucianism who are moths, but there are also good people."

"If this continues, the whole Confucianism will be finished..."

Zhang Juzheng came today to intercede for those great Confucians.

Those Confucians have a good relationship with him.

is reasonable, Zhang Juzheng has made a plan to give up his life to advise the Son of Heaven.

In fact, Zhang Juzheng was also forced to do so.

He had no other way than that.

Go to the Queen Mother?

It didn't work.

Looking for Princess Guo Susu?

It's even more useless.

Today's Son of Heaven's prestige has reached an unprecedented level.

And it has a firm grip on military power.

Otherwise, many old ministers will stand up and give a dead admonition, and use any topic that is difficult to disobey the will of the people to make the Son of Heaven give in.

This kind of thing has happened in all dynasties and dynasties.

But they all know that this method is useless to Guo Tianyi.

The military regime Guo Tianyi grabbed it all.

Since the beginning of the Han Dynasty, Guo Tianyi has cultivated a large number of cronies.

The control of the army has reached a point where it is even stronger than that of the first emperor.

Who wouldn't dare to take those topics to death?

It is also a righteous person like Zhang Juzheng who dares to speak out for the righteousness.

"Aiqing, your heart understands."

"I also know that Confucianism is not all wicked."

"Moreover, Confucianism also plays an incomparably important role in the progress of civilization and the spread of culture..."

"A few days ago, Fan Xueyi led the Confucian students of the Qilu faction to go to the Nanyi countries to propagate and educate, which was very satisfying..."

The more Guo Tianyi said, the more excited Zhang Juzheng became.

What Your Majesty said is true.

This is all the good side of Confucianism.

Indeed, without the large group of Confucians, cultural progress would have been much slower.

Unlike Legalism, Confucianism has changed several times.

Even if Confucius was alive, he would be stunned.

Because today's Confucianism not only has many factions, but also the ideas are not at all the same as those of Confucius when he was founded.

And Confucius didn't expect that the factional battles within Confucianism would be so fierce.

In the era of Confucius and Mencius, Confucian disciples pursued self-cultivation, family harmony, governing the country, and leveling the world.

Later, however, most of the Confucian descendants talked about these things, but they changed their nature.

The pursuit of profits, internal struggles, suppression of other schools of thought, and so on are not uncommon.

Confucius also once asked Lao Tzu for advice?

But later, Confucianism put on the cloak of pretending to be a god and a ghost to Huang Lao's theory, which made Huang Lao's theory wither for a time.

Thinking of this, Guo Tianyi continued, "Aiqing, in all fairness, today's Confucianism is mixed, if I want to take care of it, it will be a matter of one sentence, but I will not directly protect Confucianism in this matter. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Juzheng seemed to understand something, and a lot of thinking flashed in his eyes.

He delved into Confucianism and Legalism the most.

Among the important ministers of the imperial court, why are most of them from Legalists?

Moreover, one of the celebrities around Guo Tianyi, Cai Xuan, the spy leader of Jinyiwei, is also from a Legalist family.

Isn't it because there isn't much party strife within the Legalists?

Another point is that the Legalists vigorously defended the imperial power.

Don't easily take all kinds of righteousness to advise the Son of Heaven.

Even if the Son of Heaven is a faint king, they will obey any orders of the Son of Heaven.

Various laws were even promulgated to preserve imperial power.

Don't...

Does Your Majesty want Confucianism to make changes on its own?

During the previous dynasties, the king did not want to see Confucianism, and the influence of Confucianism in Guanzhong was reduced to the freezing point.

Moreover, the previous dynasty also reused the Legalists too much, which led to the misery of the people.

But after that, after the establishment of Dafeng, Legalism was frantically suppressed by Confucianism.

This kind of thing has lasted for ten years.

And today, when the people of the Legalist family saw the opportunity to beat the water dogs, they naturally would not be merciful.

There were extremely dark times in the struggle between the various factions, and these things are still vivid in my mind today.

When today's son, it is not a faint king.

Zhang Juzheng watched Guo Tianyi become the crown prince step by step from the weak Han King in the past, and reigned over the world, so he naturally knew that the Son of Heaven would not deliberately support any school.

Otherwise, why did the Son of Heaven spend a lot of money to build universities and military academies?

"Now that Your Majesty has a decisive decision."

"The minister retired."

After figuring out some questions, Zhang Juzheng also felt a lot more comfortable in his heart, and got up and saluted.

"This thing."

"I'll find a suitable opportunity to deal with it."

"What I hope is that a hundred schools of thought will sing together, like the healthy competition in the era of Confucius, rather than a certain faction and one family dominate."

"Go ahead."

Guo Tianyi waved his hand and motioned for the commander to leave.

"No!"

"The minister retired."

Zhang Juzheng looked at Guo Tianyi's majestic figure, and his heart was full of feelings.

Your Majesty, it's great.

Myself, not as much as also.

Your Majesty's pattern and vision need to be looked up to by yourself.

After returning to college.

Zhang Juzheng thought about it, picked up the pen, and put it down again.

I picked up the pen again and put it down again.

"Ugh...."

After repeating this for a long time, Zhang Juzheng sighed.

He wanted to report to a few of his friends on the situation of today's face to the saint and His Majesty's attitude.

But he didn't know where to start.

In this matter, I seem to be really salty and eat radishes and worry about it.

It is obvious that His Majesty is deliberately rectifying Confucianism.

But there is no intention to exterminate Confucianism.

If you say that Your Majesty already has a mouth, but if Your Majesty does not act for ten days and a half months, it is useless to say it yourself.

One more point.

The crux of the matter lies in Confucianism itself.

If they don't realize their problems, they can't talk about it.

Confucianism also has many arrogant customs, such as not punishing doctors, which I hate very much.

According to the Legalists, the Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, although it is just a rhetoric, but it also expresses the intention that everyone is equal.

Naturally, the Son of Heaven will not be wrong.

There will be no guilt either.

Unless the Son of Heaven himself gives himself an edict of sin, who can openly say that the Son of Heaven is wrong?

"That's it."

"Just let it be."

"This matter is very involved, I can't control it..."

Zhang Juzheng finally put down the pen.
