Chapter 176: Loyal to the Monarch and Serving the Country

Cousin, what do you think of my hand?" Zhu Gaochi said triumphantly, he walked next to Xu Jingchang, pulled over the chair and sat down, and proudly cocked Erlang's legs.

"King Zhao was instructed by you?"

"That's right, the third doesn't dare to disobey me." Zhu Gaochi said with a smile: "I asked Hu Yan to collect all kinds of omissions in the newspapers in the past year, such as rumors, exaggerations, fabrications, and attacks on courtiers...... I've got a whole chest, and the kid can't escape my palm."

Xu Jingchang's eyes widened, but he didn't say anything...... Zhu Gaochi is a good person, the so-called big fat people are all cautious, and they don't deceive me!

"Recommend Wu Shan and pull me into the water, is it also His Highness's intention?"

"No!" Zhu Gaochi was stern and warned Xu Jingchang: "Don't talk nonsense, I didn't pull you into the water...... The two of us are in the same boat, we have to work together, support each other, don't you understand?"

Xu Jingchang directly rewarded him with a big white eye, "I said that you are in such a hurry to attack Confucianism now and deny the way of Confucius and Mencius, are you sure enough?"

Zhu Gaochi shook his head, "This kind of thing, who dares to say that there is enough certainty? But I thought about it. I can't do this, I have to rely on my father, you know what I mean?"

"I understand, it is to take advantage of His Majesty's reign to push forward as much as possible. When you ascend the throne, just say that you will obey your father's orders, you are really a dutiful son!"

"Thanks for the compliment." Zhu Gaochi said without hesitation.

Zhu Gaochi laughed, "Brother Xian's craftsmanship is naturally nothing to say, I will personally go and ask the bachelor to explain."

That's it, too lazy to talk nonsense with him.

Wu Shan sighed: "It's different, it's really different. It's just that I'm still a little worried, can this set of things be pushed forward? What if someone objects?"

The new policy drummed up by Emperor Jianwen and his cronies and important ministers is completely a restoration of the old system, and the biggest evidence is the well field that Fang Xiaoru drummed.

This set of things, has been accompanied by the demise of the Zhao and Song dynasties, completely cut off, Emperor Jianwen They went against the grain, and also tried to summon the soul of the dead things, Your Majesty, as the son of Emperor Taizu, the head of the vassal king, in accordance with the Emperor Ming's ancestral teachings, raised troops to defend the Ming Dynasty, the ancestors of the Taoism, of course, right!

I have to say that up to now, Xu Jingchang has said that this set of truths is almost impeccable...... Anyway, it's much better than the awkward palace Xingyoufu.

Zhu Gaochi laughed, "That's right, that's what I thought, this is the first thing to fill in."

Xu Jingchang smiled: "That's natural, maybe it's still a great hero."

They drank three rounds of food and five flavors, and then continued to chat.

Zhu Gaochi smiled: "Anyway, with my father here, I'm not afraid."

"This is also thanks to the merits of the virtuous brothers, and Master Xie believes that the orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty lies in expelling Hu Lu and restoring China. It is to rejuvenate the Han people."

"Loyalties?"

Xu Jingchang said: "This sentence alone negates the Confucian concept of the mandate of heaven, and Xie Jin's courage is really not small."

Originally, Xie Jin believed that the so-called Jianwen New Deal was actually a restoration of the old Confucianism and wanted to overthrow the Taizu law...... And today, Your Majesty, it is difficult to worship the heavens, and it is natural to maintain the system of Taizu, and it is a matter of course to be filial piety and justice.

….

Not long after, Xie Jin came with Zhu Gaochi, and Wu Shan came with him.

Zhu Gaochi grinned bitterly, it was easy to say, do you know how much effort Xie Jin put in to reach this conclusion?

At the beginning of the country, Zhu Yuanzhang had about two choices, either to inherit the orthodoxy of the Han and Song dynasties, or to accept the orthodoxy of the Great Yuan...... As soon as King Xiaoming died, Song Lian and others drummed it out and the palace was blessed.

Xu Jingchang completely admitted defeat, but the next part surprised Xu Jingchang again, and he couldn't help but clap his legs and exclaim, "Xie Jin is really a talent!"

Xu Jingchang snorted, "I didn't prepare it for you, you just picked up a bargain."

Zhu Gaochi nodded, "That's right, Confucius pays attention to benevolence, and Master Xie thinks that the core of the Ming Dynasty should be loyalty!"

Zhu Gaochi was even more happy, "Cousin, with this set of things, my father's biggest heart problem has finally been solved."

When Xu Jingchang saw this, he was already a five-body cast, Xie Jin deserved to be a great talent, and this level of acuity was simply amazing!

In the Confucian program, Zhu Di was difficult to worship the heavens, and it was also his uncle who seized the throne of his nephew and merged the big sect with a small sect...... Even if it was constantly said that Emperor Jianwen had destroyed the law of Taizu, his subordinates were all female cadres and thieves...... However, it is difficult to explain the following acts.

Emperor Taizu raised troops to fight against the Yuan, crossed the Yangtze River, unified the south, drove the soldiers, drove the Yuan Dynasty to the north, recovered the old land of Yanyun, and restored the Han family.

"Yes, be loyal to the monarch and serve the country, and put the Ming Dynasty first." Zhu Gaochi waved his fist and said.

Zhu Gaochi smiled and said, "Actually, he didn't completely deny it, he meant that the heart of heaven and the will of the people must be combined into one. Zhao Song is just too unproductive, so he is not worthy of mastering the Mandate of Heaven."

"I said cousin, your craftsmanship is really amazing, and the imperial dining room is completely inferior to you!"

Zhu Yuanzhang had no choice but to admit it, although he reacted afterwards and felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't break through, so he was restricted.

However, with the cracking of the Confucian concept of the mandate of heaven and the re-understanding of the significance of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the problem of Jingjing was also solved.

Xu Jingchang nodded again and again, in a good mood...... "That's it, I'll cook it myself, cook a few dishes, invite Master Xie over, and let's talk carefully."

"How are you going now?"

Although it was only a prototype, it made Zhu Gaochi's eyes shine.

Xie Jin also sighed: "At this point, I have no choice but to give up my life and get things done, otherwise I will be ruined and have no place to die."

Xie Jin hurriedly said: "I don't dare to take credit, in fact, there are many things in this that are said by Dingguo Gong, and I am just greedy for heaven."

This system started from the orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty.

Xie Jin nodded again and again, "Dingguo Gong is really a word, and I have thought about it a lot...... For example, Confucius said that his parents did not travel far away, and it continued for thousands of years, which became a reason to oppose foreign development, and His Majesty proposed to go to the West, but he could only rely on Zheng Gonggong to do it.

Zhu Gaochi also said: "That's right, now you can follow what Xu Qin said, he said that there is a fixed amount of wealth in the world, and this world includes overseas. As a minister of the Ming Dynasty, it is natural to seek wealth for the country, right? Anyone who goes overseas in search of wealth and achieves something will be rewarded, and the court will not hesitate to increase the number of officials and knights."

….

Hearing him say this, Xie Jin and Wu Shan also hurriedly clipped a lion's head, adding up to four, don't let this product be eaten.

Xu Jingchang smiled: "Indeed, but now this set of things is still empty, and you need to stuff things into it."

Wu Shan was dumbfounded, and his saliva flowed out, "My lord, you have made a lot of money today!"

Xu Jingchang also made eighteen dishes, all of which were placed on the table, as well as the cellar wine from the Hongwu period.

Zhu Gaochi tried to widen his eyes, "What?"

Wu Shan also put down his chopsticks and said in surprise: "So the people who used to live in barbarian lands and regarded as outcasts of the Heavenly Empire may still be the heroes of the Ming Dynasty?"

No need to ask, it must be Zhu Yuanzhang.

But when it came to Xie Jin, he directly said that the Mandate of Heaven inherited by Xia Shang, Zhou, Qin, Han, Sui and Tang, was broken by the hands of Zhao and Song, and it was Zhu Yuanzhang who regained the Mandate of Heaven, which is equivalent to saying that Lao Zhu is comparable to Dayu.

This time, Xu Jingchang brought up the old matter again, and Xie Jin hollowed out his thoughts, and finally broke through the traditional Confucian shackles...... Xie Jin believes that the Southern Song Dynasty perished, the Han dynasty declined, and the Mandate of Heaven was severed.

He picked up a lion's head and bit it, the sweet and rich taste was indescribable.

Xu Jingchang nodded, "That's right, of course, it should be like this."

Zhao Song is not worthy of holding the mandate of heaven, who does the mandate belong to?

"But now we have something new, to make a difference

Benefit first, but also the people of the Ming Dynasty first...... If we go to deal with external affairs, it will be smooth immediately, and as ministers of the Ming Dynasty, it is natural for us to defend the interests of the Ming Dynasty!"

What a shame!

"Wonderful!"

Zhu Gaochi sat down and said nonchalantly, "I don't care whose credit it is, I'll fill my stomach first."

I don't dare to say that this mention is earth-shattering, and it's almost the same...... He rejected the Confucian view that there is one lineage and the only destiny of heaven.

Xu Jingchang was even more speechless, am I praising you?

Xu Jingchang smiled: "There will be opposition, and the resistance will be very large, but are you afraid?"

Seeing this, Xu Jingchang is a little bit of a five-body caster, he is worthy of being a great talent, and he is really good at sycophants!

At most, he only dared to say that Zhu Yuanzhang founded the country, comparable to Qin Shi Huang's domination of the world.

Xu Jingchang groaned slightly, "It's really good, since you are loyal to the Ming Dynasty, you need to defend the interests of the Ming Dynasty...... Therefore, we are opposed to this tributary trade in the interests of our country."

Zhu Gaochi was stunned for a moment, and nodded, after all, what he knew, Xu Jingchang would soon know...... Zhu Di arranged it for a long time, and Xie Jin finally came up with a new thing.

The Mandate of Heaven is no longer exalted, and the Mandate of Heaven is not the ultimate force that dominates the world......

Xu Jingchang snorted: "If you don't have something to get your hands on, how dare you rashly attack Confucianism, hurry up and say it, let's take a closer look at it together."

Wu Shan smiled and said, "I know, this is for Master Xie."

Xu Jingchang first said: "In the past, we used the Confucian principle of family and country, benevolence and righteousness...... Confucius said that there were friends who came from afar, and he also said that. As a result, we would rather suffer a loss than entertain the foreign envoys, and even if we suffer a loss, if we want to turn it around, we will encounter many resistances."

Xu Jingchang secretly calculated, anyway, I have the title of duke, so it's a big deal to close the door at home!

Wu Shan: "......"

At this time, someone suddenly sent a message, Xu Jingchang took it in his hand, and was surprised, "Someone rushed in front of us."

A few people leaned forward, only to see that it was written on it, Yuan Gang, the magistrate of Qufu, arrested more than 300 evil slaves of the Confucian family!

This little magistrate is really hands-on.
