"Wang Jing is going to be Sima Guang."

looked at Jiang Xinghuo, and then at Wang Jing who was kneeling on the ground, and Jian Yi sighed with emotion.

If you don't wear a filter, if you don't think that the ancients are better than the present, Wang Jing and Sima Guang are too similar.

When he was a teenager, Sima Guang was bright at an early age, when he was six years old, his father Sima Chi taught Sima Guang to read scriptures, and when he was seven years old, Sima Guang could not only recite "Zuo's Spring and Autumn", but also understand the essence of the book, and made a thing that shook Jingluo by "smashing the cylinder to save friends"; And Wang Jing has been smart since childhood, little family education, ten years old through the "Shangshu", the teacher of the famous Confucian Lian Lu, fifteen years old to become a career, for the Ming classics.

Needless to say, Sima Guang was well-known in local politics, cared for the people, established education, and was known for his strong writing and outspoken voice in the center.

And Wang Jing is into the Hanlin Academy to study ancient literature, become the most representative figure of the ancient literature school in the early Ming Dynasty, deeply appreciated by Zhu Yuanzhang, released as the governor of Kaizhou, Shanxi political envoy right to participate in politics, and then was demoted to Yunnan for more than ten years, and established a deep friendship with the Mu family, which is why Zhuo Jing deliberately singled out Yunnan's recital to him at that time in Yunnan, Wang Jing with a guilty body to admonish the school, often in the Lin'an Mansion Confucian Temple, teaching children, so from the scholars gathered, for a time formed "to poetry and books to encourage themselves, string recitation up to Dan." "The reading atmosphere and humanities are rising, and Yunnan has a very high evaluation of it.

And from the results of the future, Wang Jing is also worthy of this evaluation, before the end of the Yuan, Yunnan Jinshi did not have a Lin'an Fu people, from Wang Jing arrived, after more than ten years of cultural and educational revitalization, the number of Jinshi in Lin'an Mansion will account for half of the entire Yunnan in the future.

Sima Guang dared to speak, Wang Jing also spoke sonorously, last year when the Yan army entered the city, when Zhu Di had just ascended the throne, in the burial of Zhu Yunwen's clothes and mounds, all officials did not dare to speak, but Wang Jing, as a waiter of the Ministry of Rites, adhered to the etiquette and insisted that it was appropriate to use the Son of Heaven ceremony.

Wang Jing certainly has his own temple ambitions and ambitions, but this does not prevent him from also insisting on respecting the ancients and adhering to the etiquette law, in fact, for Wang Jing, the two are integrated, the etiquette is the principle he has adhered to all his life, and it is also his profession, Jiang Xinghuo's new law not only hinders his path to the apex of his career, but also hinders his beliefs.

And now the outcome is undecided, who dares to guarantee the vote of the civil and military officials present, and the Yongle New Deal will not be like Xining's change of law?

You know, when the new coup law began, every emperor was fully supportive!

And how did it end? As the contradictions of one thing occur, the emperor's support and attitude will eventually change, and most of the leaders of the reform who were in the limelight at the beginning and suddenly ascended to a high position will eventually fall to pieces and die without a whole body.

All of you here are people who read history!

Therefore, no one dares to guarantee that Jiang Xinghuo is not the next Wang Anshi, and the law-changing faction will not end up like the New Party.

No one can say for sure whether Wang Jing will become the Sima Guang of the Ming Dynasty, who will make a comeback after many years of forbearance and overthrow all new laws.

It must be known that in the third year of Xining, Sima Guang lived in seclusion in Luoyang for 15 years because of his opposition to Wang Anshi's reforms, specializing in the compilation of "Zizhi Tongjian". After Song Zhezong ascended the throne, Sima Guang was immediately recalled to serve in the court, and he became the prime minister to preside over the government, ostracizing the new party and abolishing the new law, and after Sima Guang abolished the new law, he died in eight months as if he had completed his life's mission.

As long as the civil and military officials who are dissatisfied with the new law in the court speak out in unison at this time, Emperor Yongle can't bear the pressure, and he doesn't even need to bring down Jiang Xinghuo today, but the emperor's attitude is shaken, even if Wang Jing is imprisoned or demoted, then Wang Jing will become a conservative leader like Sima Guangzhi and Wang Anshi.

After all, although most people in the temple are now opposed to changing the law, the problem is that there is no unified opinion leader.

And the emperor, does he also need a person to counterbalance Jiang Xinghuo?

He is the supreme and exclusive emperor!

How can he tolerate a person who does not have the name of a prime minister, but has the reality of a prime minister, threatens his imperial power?

This is the timing that Wang Jing sees, and this is also the reward he is looking forward to.

Whether it is from historical experience or the actual temple, from which point of view, Wang Jing's idea is reasonable.

As for the means?

The most complex temple problems often require only the simplest means of struggle.

When all the complicated appearances were torn apart, a senior squire who had gone through three dynasties, carrying the coffin, in front of the civil and military officials, in front of the spirit of Emperor Taizu Gao in the filial piety, reprimanded the emperor and asked to kill the traitor, which was the most powerful means of killing.

Do you feel rough? No, no one present felt rude.

Even Jiang Xinghuo was able to find several of the same classic cases from the "History of the Ming Dynasty" he saw in his previous life.

On the 18th day of the first month of the 32nd year of Jiajing, Yang Jisheng impeached Yan Song in "Please Punish the Thief and the Minister" after fasting for three days, and counted his "five traitors and ten crimes".

On February 1, the 45th year of Jiajing, Hai Rui bought a coffin from the coffin shop, and entrusted his family to a friend, and then presented "Public Security Shu" to Ming Xianzong, criticizing Xianzong's superstitious Taoism, extravagant life, and abandoning the world and other shortcomings.

On June 1, the fourth year of the Apocalypse, Yang Lian hid the written music in his arms, and prepared to take advantage of the early dynasty in front of the civil and military officials, face the Ming Jiangzong, unfortunately the day was exempted, Yang Lian was worried about delaying another day of confidential leakage, so he had to hand over to Jimen to forward, in the music Shu listed Wei Zhongxian's 24 crimes, exposing his persecution of the former emperor's former ministers, interfering in court politics, forcing the death of the harem concubine, manipulating the Dongchang indiscriminate use of obscenity and other crimes, and asking the craftsman to "work hard and thunder, collect civil and military honors, and strictly interrogate the criminal department to correct the national law."

Among these three people, it's just that Hai Rui succeeded, Yang Jisheng and Yang Lian failed, and Hai Rui and Yang Jisheng faced even the consequences of the same person's failure are of course very serious, but the fruits of success are enough to make people covet, here is not to say that Hai Rui and Wang Jing are out of the same psychology, nor is it to say that Hai Rui bought the coffin to seek fame and fortune, but to say that no matter what the starting point is, once the result is successful, it is destined to be famous in history, and as long as the opponent wall is pushed by everyone, you can immediately get a rich temple return.

Of course, don't think that it is easier to die to the emperor than to die to the ministers, in fact, the emperors of the Ming Dynasty generally had a bad temper, and the conventional way to deal with it is the "court staff + exile" package, and the unconventional is to cut off the head directly.

But today, it is impossible for Wang Jing to be beheaded.

In fact, Jiang Xinghuo admired Wang Jing very much, not because of this "simple" method, but because of the timing he chose after weighing the pros and cons.

Doing things and weighing the pros and cons is nothing more than considering two points.

First, how big the return is.

Second, the geometry of its own risks.

So what's the rule today?

- "Forbidden to see blood".

Wang Jing pinched that the emperor would not dare to kill people in front of Emperor Taizu Gao in front of the spirit of heaven, so he put himself in an absolutely safe position.

Therefore, Wang Jing did this a thing that although risks and rewards coexist, the biggest risk has been eliminated, and Wang Jing is powerful, and the timing of the pinch is just right, reducing his own risk to the lowest point.

If he dared to come to this set when he was sacrificing Emperor Taizu Gao, he would immediately be sent out in the name of sabotaging the ceremony, and now it was before the sacrificial ceremony, and the civil and military officials happened to be complete.

Didn't the emperor let the squire carry the coffin to death?

Isn't it possible to impeach a traitor in the court?

You said that Jiang Xinghuo is not a traitor, Wang Mang is humble and not usurped, Your Majesty!

If you want me to see, this Jiang Xinghuo is a peerless traitor who harbors evil intentions!

All eyes on the scene were focused on Jiang Xinghuo, waiting for his answer.

In the face of Wang Jing's accusations, Jiang Xinghuo could neither prove that he was not a traitor, nor could he prove that his new law must be better than Taizu's old law, because only the future can prove the result.

And Jiang Xinghuo himself doesn't know what the future looks like now, let alone prove it to others.

What's more, Wang Jing's so-called "down-and-out scholars in the countryside and prisoners waiting for death in prison" are not wrong, they just state the facts, and as for the so-called "Emperor Taizu Gao's expulsion of the Tartars and restoration of China, how wise and powerful" is even more correct.

So the crux of the problem now is how to prove to Baiguan in front of Zhu Yuanzhang that his new law is stronger than the old law of your ancestors who are buried in the ground, and how to prove that I, Jiang Xinghuo, are better than you.

It seems like a dead end.

Because in Daming, you can't prove that anyone is better than Zhu Yuanzhang, and Zhu Di has to go a little further here.

Therefore, Wang Jing's seemingly broken jar and broken moves, combined with the right time, place and people, actually put himself in two invincible positions when facing Jiang Xinghuo.

First, you can't kill me in front of Emperor Taizu Gao, and it will be unlucky for the country to see blood in the future.

Second, you can't prove in front of Emperor Taizu Gao that your new law is stronger than his old law.

And if you can't prove the second point.

Then you're losing.

Once such a thing as changing the law is frustrated, once it is shaken, and it does not achieve the momentum of a rainbow in one go, it will be dangerous.

The logic in this is a long story in the minds of Jian Yi and other bigwigs, but in fact, it is only a matter of a moment, when I think about this, I put myself in Jiang Xinghuo's position at this time, and I can't help but feel a chill down my spine.

How to answer this? Do you dare to answer this? It's better to pretend to be dead and let Zhu Gaoxu drag Wang Jing down violently.

And Jiang Xinghuo dared to answer, and it didn't seem to be a hasty idea at all.

Jiang Xinghuo saluted in the direction of Zhu Yuanzhang's mausoleum, and said calmly: "Emperor Taizu Gao rose up in Huaidian, crossed the river with a sword, gathered heroes and sages, leveled the pseudo-Han, cut down the pseudo-Wu, Dingguanzhong, cleared the Central Plains, and Suiping Yuandu, mixed with Haiyu, and became a great cause in less than ten years." ”

"Emperor Taizu Gao was covered by the heavens, the polar regions contained, the ministers and concubines, and the breadth of the map is unprecedented."

"All of them are made of great and capable saints, holy and unfathomable gods, through the text of heaven and earth, to protect the martial arts of great and fixed merit, plus respect for the foundation in the middle, and the clear should be outside."

"Emperor Taizu Gao is honest with the sky, filial piety is to respect relatives, benevolence is to educate things, righteousness is to control things, night clothes, liver and food, daily management of all opportunities, making rituals and music, establishing Chen Ji, Zhaoxuan humanities, magnificent governance, and following the heavens."

"Emperor Taizu Gao is the king of the world, with great merit and virtue, the same heaven and earth, the sun and the moon, although Yao Shunyu soup, how can he pass?"

"The ministers are clothed, cultivated and studied in Xuancheng, preached in the edict, Your Majesty does not take the ministers as despicable, indecent and humiliated, and serves to manage the people of the world, and consults the affairs of the world, so I am grateful, so I allow Your Majesty to drive, but it will not be as good as Emperor Taizu Gao."

Jiang Xinghuo's words made the civil and military officials present look at each other when they hear it.

first blew Lao Zhu, and then used the "Teacher Table", saying that although he was a scholar in Xuancheng and a prisoner in prison, Emperor Yongle showed an attitude towards Zhuge Liang and Guan Zhong (Guan Zhong was released from the prison officials by Duke Qi Huan and appointed), so he came out to do things, but no matter what, the level is definitely less than one ten-thousandth of Lao Zhu.

Up to now, Jiang Xinghuo has not made any mistakes, at least he didn't stalk his neck and say that Lao Zhu can't do it in front of Lao Zhuling, then it is really a big taboo.

And for Wang Jing's accusation that he is a "country scholar and prison prisoner", he also cleverly countered it, Zhuge Liang is also a country scholar, and Guan Zhong is also a prisoner in prison, so it didn't delay the two of them to become a generation of celebrities, right?

Of course, the explanation of these principled positions and the counterattack against his own scolding can only be regarded as a conventional response, and this way of dealing cannot escape Wang Jing's trap.

Because once you admit that you are not as good as Emperor Taizu Gao, then although the temple is correct, it will also admit in disguise that you are not as good as Lao Zhu, and the new law will then be inferior to the old law.

Therefore, at the moment when Jiang Xinghuo paused, everyone was looking forward to his next words, which would be the most important and decisive moment.

Whether Jiang Xinghuo can find a way to break the situation in such a short period of time in such a sudden situation will become the key today.

And Jian Yi and the others are generally more pessimistic, not that they look down on Jiang Xinghuo, but that they feel that if they go up by themselves, they may not be able to cope with it.

Zhu Gaoxu clenched his fists fiercely, he believed in his master, and he also believed that the master would definitely be able to refute Wang Jing's fallacy in public and win the final battle of the first stage of this change!

And Song Li looked at Jiang Xinghuo with some concern, although it was said that it was difficult to pass the pass, but this last level was the most difficult, and no one could replace Jiang Xinghuo at this time, this level could only be passed by himself. Song Li's entire future is tied to this, how can he not be worried? However, at this time, Song Li was unable to speak, not only could he not speak for Jiang Xinghuo, but his mind was blank, and he couldn't think of any way.

"I hope the national teacher can survive."

Song Li stared at Wang Jing who was kneeling on the ground viciously, it is difficult to guard against thieves, this old thing is arranged in private, but it is hiding from himself.

At this time, Wang Jing on the ground only sneered.

Although Jiang Xinghuo refuted his disparagement of "rural scholars and prisoners in prison", in Wang Jing's view, the personal attack on Jiang Xinghuo was only insignificant, and the real core of the problem was Zhu Yuanzhang.

In Wang Jing's point of view, Zhu Yuanzhang and his ancestors' old law are bound together, which in his opinion, is undoubtedly unbreakable, as long as Jiang Xinghuo does not dare to deny Zhu Yuanzhang, then he will lose the legal basis for changing the law, which is not completely consistent with Jiang Xinghuo's proposition of "Wang Ba Yili Ancient and Modern" three debates, or rather, this problem was not solved at that time.

In the debate ring, once all the contestants involve Zhu Yuanzhang, they will bypass, and no one dares to answer positively.

And Jiang Xinghuo's denial of Zhu Yuanzhang at this time is also self-destruction!

This dilemma is consistent with the "carriage dilemma" given to Yu Qian by Jiang Xinghuo, no matter which side he chooses, the result will be bad.

Once Jiang Xinghuo makes a choice, it means that he will suffer a loss.

So what can we lose from the theoretical debate in the first stage to the new law that is about to move from the second stage of economic reform?

People who have figured this out have put a big question mark in their minds.

However, it was in this atmosphere full of doubts that Jiang Xinghuo slowly spoke.

"The minister once said that there is no ancient or modern law, but it is appropriate at the right time and at peace with the people. When the time comes, although the people's peace is established by the mediocrity, it cannot be abolished. In the time, in the people, although the sages created can not be. ”

As soon as these words came out, Wang Jing's face was a little more solemn, he looked down at the ground in front of him, and his mind was thinking quickly.

The meaning of Jiang Xinghuo's words is very simple, he is saying that there is no distinction between the old and the new, the ancient and the modern, it is just a way for the people to be stable, if the time is right and the people are content with this law, even if it is established by mediocre people, it cannot be abolished. On the other hand, if the "law" is contrary to the timing and cannot be supported by the people, then even if it is created by saints and philosophers, it cannot be used.

Jiang Xinghuo said nothing wrong, if you look at it according to this line of thought, he has barely cracked Wang Jing's trap, neither denying Zhu Yuanzhang's ability, nor denying his new law, just saying that even if it is the "law" established by the [sage], after it is out of date, it may not be stronger than the "law" of the [mediocre].

It is equivalent to dividing "people" and "law", and not denying the old law is denying Zhu Yuanzhang, and the [saints] and [mediocre people] in this are obviously talking about Zhu Yuanzhang and Jiang Xinghuo, at least now everyone understands this.

This statement is certainly possible, but it always feels like it's not perfect.

But at least no mistake was made anyway.

"Still. At such an urgent moment, Jiang Xinghuo's wisdom can be described as extraordinary, not only without losing the general situation, but also taking care of himself, and coming up with this kind of countermeasure. Jian Yi thought.

But Jiang Xinghuo's next words made Jian Yi and the others startled.

- There is even a counter-defense for the offense!

"The law of the queen is long in the ears and eyes of the people. For a long time, there is a detailed book of the division and the wisdom of the people, the way is easy to follow, and it is easy to say, so it is said: the queen of the law can also. ”

The meaning of this passage is that after the "law" of the queen is exposed to it, not only the government is familiar with it, but also the people are familiar with it, and it is easy for the people to form obedience when they take this kind of road, and it is easy for the people to accept the orders issued by the government.

But the deeper meaning is to say that Zhu Yuanzhang is of course a saint, but he is not a "first king" type saint like Yao Shunyu Tang mentioned before, but a "queen king" type saint, Zhu Yuanzhang's "law" is also a new law for the previous saints.

Wang Jing suddenly raised his pale head, his eyes staring at Jiang Xinghuo deadly, as if he was going to shoot two hot rays to pierce Jiang Xinghuo's chest and back.

Jiang Xinghuo's counterattack completely exceeded Wang Jing's expectations!

Because Jiang Xinghuo's brain circuit is too strange, didn't you say that my new method is not as good as Taizu's old method? So think about it from another angle, isn't the old law of Taizu also a new law for the law of the previous saints?

And Jiang Xinghuo also looked at him, and the corners of his mouth were touched, and he smiled.

This is equivalent to the same "carriage dilemma", but Jiang Xinghuo neither chose to hit the person on the left nor the person on the right, but directly rode his horse and jumped, like Lu Ma leaping over the head of the crowd, and let out a fart after landing safely!

It can only be said that the taunt effect after cracking is extremely strong.

Wang Jing wanted to say something, but he didn't think of how to deal with it for a while, and when he wanted to say it again, it was too late.

Looking at everyone's slightly stunned looks, Jiang Xinghuo continued.

"The law cannot be changed lightly, nor can it be relied upon."

"If you are in trouble, you will be in danger of being depressed, and this is not the fault of everything."

"If you change lightly, you will be tired of the old and like the new, and there will be more disorder, which is too much of a mistake."

"The two laws are forbidden, and if they violate them, how can they be responsible for practicing the law?"

Therefore, go to the fault of the two, and seek the truth as one, and the law will do it.

The meaning of these few sentences is that the "law" cannot be easily changed, nor can it be completely in accordance with the past, and it is necessary to discard the drawbacks of the two and then achieve "truth-seeking," that is, to adjust the "law" according to actual needs, so that it can work.

At this point, Jiang Xinghuo has completed the theoretical part of the counterattack.

The syllogism of the discourse ends.

In the first paragraph, Jiang Xinghuo affirmed Zhu Yuanzhang's merits and abilities, and countered Wang Jingkou's disparagement of him as a "country scholar and prisoner in prison", comparing himself with Zhuge Liang and Guan Zhong.

In the second paragraph, Jiang Xinghuo said that the essence of "law" is the rules that make the people stable, and it has nothing to do with ancient and modern times.

In the third paragraph, Jiang Xinghuo pointed out that Zhu Yuanzhang is also the queen king, and his "law" is also a "new law" for sages like Yao Shunyu Tang.

In the fourth paragraph, Jiang Xinghuo said that although the "law" cannot be easily changed, nor can it be conservative, the two should choose a balance point, abandon its disadvantages and take its advantages, and adjust the "law" according to the actual situation.

When Jiang Xinghuo completed his theoretical construction, most of the smart people on the scene knew what he was going to say next.

Since the "law" is to make the world stable, since the "law" must be adjusted according to the times, and since Zhu Yuanzhang is also a relative "new law", then Jiang Xinghuo has to argue whether the "law" needs to be adjusted at the moment.

Wang Jing only then did he look into the air and speak: "Fazhi."

Before he finished speaking, he was rudely interrupted by Jiang Xinghuo: "Wang Shilang invited me to die, isn't I allowed to say a word before I die?" Whether what I said makes sense, it is up to the princes and Your Majesty to judge, what is there to worry about Wang Shilang? ”

Two words in short

- In a hurry?

Wang Jing's face was red, but he was really speechless for a while.

Today, he didn't want to die, and Jiang Xinghuo didn't want to die either.

Moreover, in this scene, since Jiang Xinghuo said the words that were handed over to the civil and military officials and the emperor on the scene to judge, this hat with great righteousness was pressed down, and Wang Jing was indeed not able to interrupt Jiang Xinghuo's words.

"Today, Jiang has three questions! There are also three answers! ”

Jiang Xinghuo looked around at the ministers, and at this time, the officials who were crying at the tomb unconsciously stopped and looked at the national teacher with a sob.

"If after three questions and three answers, the princes feel that there is no reason, this law will not change!"

At this time, Jiang Xinghuo was full of infinite confidence in his gestures, and it seemed that he was determined, although he was only one step away from failure just now, but after his three questions and answers, the princes on the scene would be completely convinced by the new law.

"First question!"

"Hongwu founded the country, it is 'the mountains and rivers are dying, the sun and the moon reopen the Great Song Dynasty', why did Emperor Gao, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, carry out the new law made by the guard? Why not use the old law of the Song Dynasty? ”

Jiang Xinghuo stepped out in one step, and the hundred officials dispersed on both sides like a sword splitting the sea.

"The reason couldn't be simpler!"

Jiang Xinghuo walked while looking at the faces of the princes in the court.

"Hu Lu entered the Central Plains, and the people of the world rose up to resist the Yuan, how many millions? At that time, millions of people, all of whom were meritorious ministers who resisted the Yuan, Emperor Taizu Gao's merit of 'expelling the Tartars and restoring China', how could one person succeed? ”

This is upright, and no one dares to deny it.

Zhu Yuanzhang was carrying a knife alone, and he couldn't expel the Tartars.

Jiang Xinghuo changed his words and directly explained the essential reason for this: "And these millions of people, bloody and indelibble, so brave and ruthless, if they are released back to the people, won't it inevitably cause a big disaster?" And even if the imperial court is willing to dismiss, how can this group of meritorious officials get a huge amount of severance money at once? Therefore, Emperor Taizu Gao considered the reality and established the guard system, isn't this the law determined by the time? ”

Jiang Xinghuo's words shot like arrows into the chests of the princes present, blocking them in a choked manner.

"And why is the health system gradually collapsing today? Why did the people of the guard house flee their citizenship? ”

At this time, Jiang Xinghuo, who was in acupuncture, sneered: "The reason is also simple, the times have changed!" My lord! ”

"If it is stable today, the Ming Dynasty has come out of the era of war at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, how can the people of the guard who have the ability to take the imperial examination to do business be willing to farm and become soldiers all their lives?"

"Since the law is determined by the time, it can change according to the time!"

"This is my first question, my first answer, you can judge and discuss, if there is a mistake, you can point it out."

The ministers began to talk about it.

"Yes, Emperor Taizu Gao set up the guard system, considering the situation of the times at that time, and now the times have changed. A young minister sighed.

"That's right, that's right. If you don't want this situation to continue, there are only two options: either open up the channels for military households to participate in the imperial examination and do business, or reform the health center system. ”

"That's what I said, but after all, there are so many people in the guards, and there are millions."

"It's a bit of a hassle, so it's better not to change it easily."

"That being said, it is true, but it is by no means easy to change the system, and looking at this Wei system, it was also when Emperor Taizu Gao was alive that he thought of many ways to weigh the pros and cons before it was completed." There are also older ministers who have expressed concern.

The ministers whispered and expressed their opinions, on the one hand, they supported the reform of the system, and on the other hand, they believed that although the system was not very suitable for the current situation, it was better to keep it unchanged, after all, it was good to remain unchanged.

But to Wang Jing's surprise, almost no one thought that the Wei system was flawless in this era more than 30 years later.

Wang Jing's face was a little pale, he couldn't have imagined that Jiang Xinghuo's counterattack would be so orderly and clear, so step by step!

After a few words, it actually led the atmosphere to another angle.

Zhu Di glanced at the fiercely arguing ministers, and a sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth.

Indeed, people's hearts are always uneven, and even if they shout against the new law, as long as they involve different views and positions, they will inevitably raise questions and quarrels.

But......

Zhu Di turned his head to look at Jiang Xinghuo, what he wanted was this result, and these ministers did not disappoint him.

"Then comes the second question, the second answer!"

Jiang Xinghuo continued to speak, and in a blink of an eye, the offensive and defensive momentum was different, and it turned out to be Jiang Xinghuo's aggressive posture.

"Second question!"

"Hongwu opened the country, why did Emperor Taizu Gao practice the law of treasure money? Why don't you use Song Dynasty copper coins and iron coins? ”

"The old currency law of the Song Dynasty, isn't it the old law? Why did Emperor Taizu Gao issue an edict to make Ming treasure banknotes in the province of Zhongshu, so that the people could pass through, and at the same time ordered the people not to trade in gold and silver goods, and the offender was guilty? ”

Jiang Xinghuo's answer with a question mark hit everyone's hearts like a storm.

"Isn't it because of the lack of copper and silver at the time of the founding of the country? Now after 30 years of resumption of production, is Daming still short of copper? In another thirty years, who of you present is sure that Daming is still short of silver? ”

"Emperor Taizu Gao formulated the banknote law according to the situation of the times when the country was founded, and now that the banknote law has collapsed, isn't it obvious to all? Is there no treasure money in the money issued by the princes? ”

"If there is no shortage of copper or silver, and the treasure money continues to collapse, will this old monetary law, if you don't care, look at, or talk about it, if you don't see it, it won't collapse on its own?"

"Is the corruption of this 'Dharma' because you pretend not to see it, and it won't happen? What to do when the time comes, doesn't it have to change? ”

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, thinking of the depreciation of the treasure money that they issued every month, couldn't help but look at each other on the ground, even if they were the most thick-skinned people, they wanted to refute the sentence "Emperor Taizu Gao's banknote law should not be changed", and it was also unspeakable.

If there are still people who insist on the same system, they think that it is better to rot slowly than to change, but the banknote law, something that everyone can feel personally, but no matter how much face is raised, they can't say that it shouldn't change.

Unchanged, do you think no one wants to change? It's just that no one has the ability, knowledge, and courage to change and bear the consequences of carrying the black pot!

"Lords, wake up!"

Jiang Xinghuo's voice was almost deafening in this silence, as if in a dark room with the curtains tightened, someone kicked the door to cover shame with one foot, and endless sunlight poured into the room, reflecting the garbage all over the floor.

"—Time has changed!"

Jiang Xinghuo asked at Zhu Yuanzhang's mausoleum:

"It's the resurrection of Emperor Taizu Gao, and his old man won't change it when he sees today's banknote law and today's Wei system?"

Faced with this soul problem, all the ministers present were silent.

Because they all know that answer.

Zhu Yuanzhang will definitely change, Zhu Yuanzhang has never been afraid of change, he is just afraid that his descendants will not have the ability to change randomly, so as to ruin the Ming Dynasty.

And the confidence in Jiang Xinghuo's words can almost make people feel "hot".

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the Manchu Dynasty and said with great certainty:

"Jiang can tell the princes unmistakably that his old man will personally change his 'ancestral old law'!"

"There is only one reason, the 'law' formulated by Emperor Taizu Gao, every article and every paragraph is based on the specific conditions of the founding era of the Ming Dynasty!"

"There is no law in the past or the present, but it is appropriate at the right time; Only by seeking truth can the law be able to do it! ”

Wang Jing's heart at this time had fallen from the top of the mountain into the endless abyss.

What should he do?

How can he refute this?

Jiang Xing's iron-clad arguments, arguments, and analyses were placed in front of him, did he still insist on the pale and weak sentence "The law of the ancestors is immutable"?

No, that's just self-inflicted humiliation.

Wang Jing tried his best to meditate, he wanted to find the loopholes in Jiang Xinghuo's words, and wanted to regain the initiative, but he failed.

Jiang Xinghuo frankly admitted the greatness of Emperor Taizu Gao, but in Jiang Xinghuo's point of view, it is precisely because Emperor Taizu Gao is great enough, capable enough, visionary, and decisive that he will judge the situation and formulate the corresponding "law" according to the characteristics and circumstances of the times, rather than blindly copying the old law of the previous dynasty.

Wang Jing wants to say that it is not? But the fact of the Ming Dynasty is that all of Zhu Yuanzhang's innovative systems may be able to find shadows in some systems of the former dynasty and the former dynasty, but in the final analysis, no one can deny it

——Since the founding of the country, the Ming Dynasty has never followed the "old law".

This fact does not change because of someone's sophistry, it is there, coldly there, and does not change because of anyone, not even the pen of a historian can erase this.

How can the Ming Dynasty, which was built on the "new law", fundamentally deny the "new law"?

It's like how can a worm that has turned into a butterfly have a new pair of wings and deny it as a "chrysalis" in the past?

The cutting is continuous, and the rationalization is still messy.

When all this is clearly explained, there is no need for a third question.

Wang Jing already knew that he had lost, and he had lost completely.

Wang Jing's failure is not that he can't continue to refute, in fact, of course, he can continue to adhere to the ancient rites and adhere to the old laws of his ancestors, but he occupies the right time and place today, and pinched the best time to be invincible, and he can't shake Jiang Xinghuo, so he has already lost.

He can be hard-mouthed, but today is over. No, you don't need to pass today, you just need to leave here, Jiang Xinghuo can easily clean him up, and the waiter of the Ministry of Rites is no longer his talisman, but a talisman.

On the contrary, if Jiang Xinghuo is speechless at this scene where the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty are eye-catching, then Wang Jing will immediately gain huge temple prestige, and after the scene is disbanded, he will immediately become a conservative opinion leader, and the emperor will not dare and cannot deal with such a dead minister who is famous in the government and the opposition.

But all these fantasies are just fantasies after all.

Wang Jing lowered his head, and his ears seemed to be like countless cicadas No, there really seemed to be a lot of cicadas in Xiaolingwei in May, but no matter what it was, in short, Wang Jing couldn't hear what Jiang Xinghuo was talking about.

Vaguely, Jiang Xinghuo seemed to be talking about "migration", "sea ban", and "commerce".

Venus began to appear in Wang Jing's eyes, and the sky swirled in his mind, as if there were 10,000 Zhu Gaoxu twisting his neck, and the next moment he kicked his head into the sky "suddenly".

"-Knock!"

Wang Jing fell heavily to the ground.

"Wang Shilang fainted!"

The crowd erupted in exclamations.

The minister next to him exclaimed, "Hurry up!" ”

"What are you doing when you pick it up? Don't make a mess, lay him down! So said the minister, who likes to see medicine in his spare time.

The crowd was in a panic, and many people gathered around to see Wang Jing, and someone shouted: "Doctor!" O physician! ”

Another person said: "Don't surround him, maybe he is suffering from heat stroke and is in a hurry, quickly carry him here and cover a curtain to escape the heat!" ”

So, Wang Jing successfully lay down in the board he ordered.

Zhu Gao stood in place, looking at this guy who suddenly fell into a coma, just now he was impassioned and wanted to fight Jiang Xinghuo to the death, why did he become like this in a blink of an eye?

Zhu Di's face was not good-looking at this time, standing next to him and looking at him, but he didn't make any immediate moves, as if he was waiting for something.

After a while, the doctor came.

Should I say it or not, in order to prevent someone from fainting from heat stroke, Wang Jing prepared a complete set of doctors, plates, cold water, and towels, and now he uses them.

With the arrival of the doctor, the surrounding crowd dodged to both sides, as if they only needed to slow down for a second, they would be affected by the pond fish.

After a while, the doctor finished the diagnosis and found out Wang Jing's condition.

"What's wrong with him?" Zhu Di asked.

A physician replied tremblingly: "Wang Shilang is old and weak, and now the heat is hot and on fire again, and it is caused by the rush to attack the heart, so it should be fine to take some decoction to relieve the heat and relieve the fire." ”

Zhu Gaoxu thought hatefully: "I thought you were pretending to be an old thing, but I didn't expect you to really faint." ”

Zhu Di sighed and said, "Come on, immediately carry Wang Shilang back to the mansion to rest." ”

After a pause, Zhu Di added: "Just use this lift, no need to change to other tosses." ”

The eunuch beside him arched his hand and said, "Obey." ”

Then several powerful eunuchs left with Wang Jing's board in full swing, and the rest of the eunuchs and brocade guards who had just gathered around also left the scene.

And when Wang Jing and his banban were carried away, the scene fell into an eerie, silent silence.

Everyone looked at Jiang Xinghuo, but no one spoke, Huang Fu wanted to say, but he knew that this was not the time, about the Ming version of the [Salt and Iron Conference], it would have to wait until after the worship ceremony was over.

And Wang Jing's exit, just like the death of Guo Ying, Marquis of Wuding, seems to imply the end of some kind of old era of civil ministers and military generals.

Just like Jiang Xinghuo said.

"My lord, times have changed."

When the tide of the new era is carried by the torrent of history, and inexorably crushes every tiny speck of dust in it, under this great force, anyone's will seems to be incomparably small and ridiculous.

When the bell rings.

When the red sun hangs high in the morning.

Under the leadership of the emperor, the civil and military officials walked up the mountain road of the Purple Mountain Xiaoling.

The Ming Empire, also witnessed by Zhu Yuanzhang, entered a new era.
