Chapter 513: Debater
Jiang Xinghuo looked at the list handed over by the Jinyi Guard, who was in charge of assisting in the order, and fell into deep thought for a moment.
At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the grandmaster of science, who can really have a famous position in history, is nothing more than Song Lian, Liu Ji, Fang Xiaoru, Cao Duan, a few people, Song Lian and Liu Ji, the two bull ears in the Hongwu era, have long since become a swan song, and Fang Xiaoru in the Jianwen era, as his nominal "master", has been cut off by all the inheritance of Ga, and Cao Duan, who can really lead the Yongle era in the future, is now only a young generation of grandmasters.
As for the future, Xue Xuan, Wu Youbi, Hu Juren and other science masters who played a role in the ideological circles of the Ming Dynasty are either not born or only in their teens, and as for the famous schools such as the Sanyuan School and the Chongren School, there is not even a shadow.
Therefore, judging from the list, as long as there are influential school leaders, they are all here.
Seeing that he was generally classified by Shilin into the descendants of the Eastern Zhejiang School, Jiang Xinghuo really couldn't cry or laugh.
"Did you say that? Is this divided according to the Yongjia and Yongkang schools in eastern Zhejiang? β
Yao Guangxiao smiled teasingly, and only said, "It's really not." β
The traditional concept of the East Zhejiang School as a regional school, in fact, is a general category of statements, the ancient Qiantang River as the boundary, divided into "West Zhejiang", "East Zhejiang", the later Hangjiahu area was "West Zhejiang" in ancient times, and Ning (Yong) Shao, Taiwen, Jinliqu area all belong to the "East Zhejiang" area.
During the Southern Song Dynasty, Lu Zuqian's Jinhua School in central Zhejiang, Chen Liang's Yongkang School, and Ye Shi's Yongjia School in southern Zhejiang were collectively referred to as the Eastern Zhejiang School.
Needless to say, the Jinhua school was inherited to Wang Youli's generation, and the Yongkang and Yongjia schools that advocated the "application of the world" were mainly active in the Southern Song Dynasty, and finally went into decline during the Song and Yuan dynasties.
"The most important division method here is the new Zhedongxue of Huang Wei-Song Lian-Fang Xiaoru, according to the order of inheritance, to Jiang Sheng, the only seedling."
After the old monk's explanation, Jiang Xinghuo understood what it meant.
At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the meaning of the Eastern Zhejiang School began to change, and the Jinhua School took a back seat, and later came in the line of Song Lian - Fang Xiaoru, that is, the "New Eastern Zhejiang School".
The vein of Song Lian's "New Eastern Zhejiang School" can be traced back to Huang Wei, one of the "Four Masters of Confucianism" in the Yuan Dynasty.
This is a figure who had a profound influence on the intellectual circles of the early Ming Dynasty, but it is rarely known.
He is a native of Yiwu, Zhejiang, born in Shuangjing Huang, is the ninth grandson of Huang Tingjian's uncle Huang Fang, has an unparalleled position in the ideological circle at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, served as the banquet official of the Yuan court to give lectures to the Yuan Emperor, and served as the intellectual system responsible for writing the emperor's edict, and also served as a doctor of Guozixue, three times as the chief examiner of the township examination in Zhejiang and other provinces, and the protΓ©gΓ©s are all over the world.
As Huang Wei's proud protΓ©gΓ©, Song Lian, the head of the founding ministers of the Ming Dynasty, once described the scene of people competing to read Huang Wei's poems and texts, "The people of the sea and the likes of Futu Laozi, who gathered in the court on the day to invite the text, did not go, and one article was published, and the family heirloom recited, although the country was peerless, they all knew the treasure and love".
Therefore, Huang Wei's idea of the "New Zhedong School" is a serious official school and a prominent school in the early Ming Dynasty.
Song Lian, Wang Yuan and others of the "New Zhejiang East School" mainly inherited Zhu Xi's science advocated by Huang Wei, but Song Lian learned from Huang Wei at the same time, and connected to the ideological line of Xu Heng, Wu Cheng and others, emphasizing the role of the heart.
Why was Fang Xiaoru so famous in the Jianwen era? In addition to his knowledge is indeed extraordinary, the most important reason is that he is a disciple of Song Lian and the head of the "New Zhedong School", that is, the most prominent school of the Ming Dynasty.
However, as a disciple of Song Lian, Fang Xiaoru's academic views are still a little different from Song Lian, Fang Xiaoru emphasizes more "Bowen about etiquette, learning about things", advocating practice and practice, opposing empty talk about the heart of "abandoning the book, despairing, restricting its ears and eyes without responsibility, and getting lucky to realize it at once" The epiphany flow of practice method, Fang Xiaoru advocates reading and reasoning, opposing self-consciousness and having different interests with Song Lian, which is developed by Liu Yin, Xu Qian and others.
But generally speaking, the physicists of the early Ming Dynasty focused on erudition and broad knowledge, examining the cultural relics system, compiling and revising the works of their predecessors and the history of the previous generations, and the theoretical achievements were not great, and the ideological characteristics were not very obvious.
It's a pity that two years ago, the "New Zhedong School" was basically wiped out because of Fang Xiaoru's sentence "What about punishing my ten tribes".
Jiang Xinghuo had heard a joke before, called "Four people who talk about cross talk scolded the street, boiled those two to death, and the one who survived was the old artist".
Isn't that a coincidence?
It's a bit of a hellish joke, and now there is only one person alive in the "New Zhedong School".
Jiang Xinghuo shone into the glass mirror in the yamen.
ββThe only successor of the "New Zhedong School" in the literal sense Β·" The old Zhedong School "Yongkang, Yongjia School of practical learning and meritorious thoughts.
It's you, Jiang Xinghuo!
"Psychology, science, all have to come some people, well, these people are very good."
looked at the list again, and then looked at the arrangement for himself, Jiang Xinghuo became more and more satisfied.
In fact, this arrangement is very natural, in the eyes of the outside world, if Jiang Xinghuo throws away the mystery of the "immortal" on his body, in terms of academic thought, he is generally compatible with science and practical learning, and mainly focuses on the study of practical work, which belongs to the orthodox people who truly revive the Yongkang and Yongjia schools in eastern Zhejiang, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the master of practical learning.
For the ideological and academic circles of the Ming Dynasty, at the academic level, Jiang Xinghuo's main contribution lies in the decisive breakthrough made by Jiang Xinghuo in the theory of heaven (to solve Taiji with contradictions), the theory of things (bold assumptions, careful verification, and practice to produce true knowledge), and the theory of work (knowledge and action are clamped, the cycle is unprovoked, and the conscience is reached).
Judging from the known academic contributions alone, Jiang Xinghuo is already a top Confucian in the entire academic world.
Not to mention the unpublished ideas such as the behind-the-scenes introduction of a new theory of mind, the answer to the theory of fate and the theory of ambition, and so on.
Therefore, even the most traditional Cheng Zhu Lixue Guardian, no one questioned Jiang Xinghuo's academic level, but generally did not agree with his position and views.
Jiang Xinghuo's practical learning at the moral level and science at the practical level with the other hand have built the unique "new learning" of the Ming Dynasty together, although it is still very weak in terms of the relative number of the whole, but in terms of absolute quantity, the followers are already like carp crossing the river, and his own influence in the academic circles of the Ming Dynasty is naturally extraordinary.
And this influence will continue to grow over time.
If this debate is won, then Guozijian's style of study will undoubtedly fall in the direction Jiang Xinghuo wants, that is, it will be more full of innovation and exploration spirit, and become the forefront of the entire Ming thought.
In addition to Guozijian, Jiang Xinghuo also directly controls the Daming Administrative School.
As long as the Fa-Reform faction can obtain the dominance of the township examination in as many regions as possible and the dominance of the palace examination as much as possible, then the scholars of one session after another will naturally shift from Cheng Zhu Lixue to a new Lixue that mixes Xunzi's ideas such as "the Queen of the Law" and the idea of "applying it to the world".
Cheng Zhu Lixue as the official school of the Ming Dynasty, since the Ming court can support it in 30 years, it can naturally be improved and transformed, to put it bluntly, Confucianism has been constantly changing for thousands of years, how to better adapt to the needs of the rulers in different eras, is the problem that Confucianism itself needs to seriously consider in the process of transmutation.
Judging from the history of Yan Shenggong, it is obvious that Confucianism is very "adaptable".
However, about the future of education and talent training, as well as the change of learning style, these things are obviously a later story.
The most important thing is to win the battle in front of us first.
Jiang Xinghuo carefully weighed the list again, and finally took up the pen to delete it, looked at the final version of the list, and said with satisfaction.
"Xie Jin has momentum, add Xie Jin to the list, and then Hu Jichen, don't let this old man hide, add it together."
Yao Guangxiao looked at the list and felt that it was also very appropriate, but he vaguely felt that something seemed to be missing.
"By the way, who's that."
"Why don't we make a bet and see if he's coming?" Jiang Xinghuo said with a smile.
"I don't think so."
"I think he has this heart, if he doesn't, he won't have any chance in the future."
"Then we'll see." Yao Guangxiao smiled.
When the world is Confucian, there are countless geniuses, but there are super geniuses above the geniuses, these outstanding people in the past, in the face of Jiang Xinghuo, who can be called "the mountain looks up", whether they have the determination to climb the peak bravely, it is really unknown.
ββββββ
This final list of those who went to Guozijian to participate in the polemic went to Sanyang at the same time.
Although Zhu Gaochi has thought about it behind closed doors now, he is still very concerned about the affairs of the government and the opposition, and Sanyang, as a confidant, naturally has to be vigilant all the time.
Moreover, this list itself already vaguely represents the schools of thought and academia of the Ming Dynasty today, as well as the status of various representative figures.
Yang Shiqi sighed: "Confucius didn't, Zengzi had his own biography, the son of Chuan Si, and Mencius, Mencius didn't pass on." The two Han Dynasty went down, the Confucian scholars talked about the avenue, observed and refined, the language was subtle and detailed, and the heresy talked about and multiplied it, and it was almost bad, and it was more than a thousand years. To the middle of the Song Dynasty, Zhou Dunyi came out of the Lingling, but the sages did not pass on the learning, as "Tai Chi Diagram", "Tongshu", deduce the principle of the five elements of yin and yang, life in the sky and the nature of the person, if the palm of the Yuan people to repair the "History of the Song Dynasty", as "Taoism", recognize Zhou Dunyi on the Confucian and Mencian Taoism, under the status of opening the Taoist lineage, but now it is the Lian Xue authentic, attributed to Cao Duan's head. β
Since then, the academic community has accepted the concept of Zhou Dunyi, that is, Zhou Dunyi is regarded as the founding patriarch of the Song Dynasty and respected as the "Taoist master", and later scholars in the Yuan Dynasty and the early Ming Dynasty regarded Lianxue, Luoxue, Guanxue, and Min Studies as the four major schools of Confucianism and Taoism in the two Song Dynasty.
Among these four major schools, Lian Xue refers to Zhou Dunyi, because he originally lived in Lianxi, Yingdao, Daozhou, known as Mr. Lianxi, the ancestor of the Song Dynasty, and the teacher of Cheng Yi and Cheng Hao; Luoxue refers to the brothers Cheng Yi and Cheng Hao, because they live in Luoyang, and the world calls them Luoxue; Guan Xue refers to Zhang Zai, because of his home in Guanzhong, known as Mr. Hengqu, Zhang Zai's school is called Guan Xue; Min Xue refers to Zhu Xi, Zhu Xi once lectured in Fujian Kaoting, so it is called Min Xue, also known as "Kaoting School".
Looking at this list, Yang Rong also agreed: "This list must be divided according to the four major schools of science and the three-legged faction of science, mind, and practice in the Southern Song Dynasty, which is very level. β
Among the four major schools, Cao Duan has now inherited and improved Zhou Dunyi's thoughts, and in terms of academic pedigree, it is indeed orthodox in Lianxue; And Zhang Zai's Guan Xue was passed on to Yang Jingcheng, the generation of the Yang family.
As for the rest of Luoxue and Minxue, there are too many sayings, Luoxue itself is a different direction of specialization, seriously speaking, Luoxue was later directly divided into Cheng Yi-Zhu Xi Lixue, Cheng Hao-Lu Jiuyuan Xinxue, which is also commonly known as "Xinxue" and "Science".
As a student of Ercheng, Yang Shi is a key figure in Luo Xuenan's transmission, and he plays a role as a bridge between Ercheng and Zhu Xi's thoughts.
Therefore, Zhu Xi's Min Studies, or the so-called "Cheng Zhu Lixue" in later generations, the precise definition should actually be Cheng Yi-Zhu Xi Lixue, after the full development of the Southern Song Dynasty, after the Yuan Dynasty, to the early Ming Dynasty, it has completely become an official school, a prominent school, and Cheng Zhu Lixue in the early Ming Dynasty The most important representative school is the "New Zhedong School" with Song Lian and Fang Xiaoru as the heads of the two generations, but the inheritance of the "New Zhedong School" is severed, which does not represent the severance of Cheng Zhu Lixue, because in addition to it, the vast majority of schools and students in the Ming Dynasty, I learned Cheng Zhu's science and science.
And another branch of Luoxue, Cheng Hao-Lu Jiuyuan Xinxue, in today's Yongle era, but under the mention of Jiang Xinghuo, Zhang Yuchu of Daomen carried it forward, and spread the set of "My heart is bright and sanctified", and the speed of development of Xinxue is extremely rapid, Taoism and Xinxue, but now they are mixed with each other, and have become similar to the Zen version of Taoism. In short, it's really a situation where a hundred schools of thought are contending.
"The four schools of Confucianism, Lian Xue Cao Duan, Guan Xue Yang Jingcheng, and Luo Xue's Xinxue are Zhang Yuchu, and Luoxue's other branch of Min Xue, which is now an official school, and the participants are other Confucians such as Kong Xilu, the head of the Southern Confucian sect, Wang Youli of the Jinhua School, and Gao Xunzhi of Mr. Cheng Shan, plus Jiang Xinghuo, who inherited and carried forward the Yongkang and Yongjia Shigong in the Eastern Zhejiang School, and the university schools are complete."
This list is more and more pondering, the more impeccable, at least from the perspective of academic factions, it is indeed complete, whether it is from the "History of the Song Dynasty" in the history of the development of Confucianism in the two Song Dynasty recognized in the history of Lianxue, Luoxue, Guanxue, Min Xue, or the Southern Song Dynasty academic circles present a three-legged science (Cheng Yi-Zhu Xi science), mind (Cheng Hao-Lu Jiuyuan Xinxue), practical studies (Yongjia, Yongkang Shigong Xuexue), in this list, you can find the corresponding inheritance and representative figures.
Of course, don't look at the list to be scary, in fact, if you look at it according to the proportion, Lianxue, Guanxue, Xinxue (Cheng Hao-Lu Jiuyuan Xinxue), Shixue (Yongjia, Yongkang Shigong Xue), these four together, in the current Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that the people who adhere to these Taoist systems will not account for more than 5% of the total number of readers.
The remaining 95% of the scholars are all Min studies, that is, Cheng Yi-Zhu Xi science.
However, the election of representatives in polemics must come according to academic factions, not according to the proportion of the population base.
And Cheng Yi-Zhu Xi is indeed a lot of people, but there are also many factions in it!
Don't look at the "New Zhedong School" has been smashed, but Cheng Yi-Zhu Xi Lixue, as the official school of the Ming Dynasty, has developed for hundreds of years, to say the least, since it was respected in the Yuan Dynasty, and it has long been scattered across the country.
Even overseas, such as Zheng Mengzhou, the prime minister of Goryeo, and Hu Jichen, the emperor of Annam, these foreign Confucians, also studied Cheng Yi-Zhu Xi's science.
Well, according to the analysis of the list, this time, Hu Jichen, as an overseas Confucian who was attached, was also invited to participate because of his special status.
In addition, Kong Xilu, the leader of the Southern Confucian Sect, as a Confucian sect in the world, is an invincible figure in bloodline and prestige, and he is also coming.
Then there are the compilers and supervisors of the "Yongle Grand Canon", Xie Jin, the Qing of Honglu Temple, and Yao Guangxiao, the Duke of Rongguo, who participated in the official Confucianism.
Yang Pu looked at the list and analyzed: "In this way, Mr. Jingcheng of Guan Xue, Mr. Shidao of Jinhua School, and Mr. Cheng Shan (Gao Xunzhi), plus Hu Sai Wine, basically uphold the same point of view. β
Yang Shiqi shook his head and only said: "Guan Xue's Yang clan is humble and light-hearted, so he may not dare to speak. β
Yang Rong disagreed: "Academic arguments, these four should all dare to speak, not to mention that as long as there is Ruosi (Hu Yan), how can there be anything that can't be said?" β
"If you look at other people, you don't have much of a chance of winning."
Yang Shiqi is a bit of a surrender strategist today, and it seems that the recent events have made him quite discouraged.
"Hu Jichen doesn't necessarily dare to speak, Sect Master Kong is the only one who can stabilize Jiang Xinghuo, but I don't know what ecstasy soup Jiang Xinghuo has poured recently, it's not bad if he doesn't defect."
The more frustrating it is, the more frustrating it is, there was originally a situation where Kong Xilu was in charge of the SSR, as long as it was a debate, Cheng Zhu Lixue would win steadily, who knows what happened to this Southern Confucius sect master, his attitude towards Jiang Xinghuo is quite paradoxical, from the saber rattling at the beginning, to the present it is quite affectionate.
Zhang Yuchu, who is left to study mentally, and Xie Jin and Yao Guangxiao, who are on the side of the law changers, don't even think about it, they must be on the same side as Jiang Xinghuo.
This has become a three-legged situation of twelve people on the list.
Debaters: Jiang Xinghuo, Zhang Yuchu, Xie Jin, Yao Guangxiao.
Opponents: Hu Yan, Gao Xunzhi, Wang Youli, Yang Jingcheng.
Neutral debaters: Cao Duan, Hu Jichen, Kong Xilu, Wang Yunsheng.
But whether these so-called "neutral debaters", to be honest, will jump to Jiang Xinghuo's side, which is also very doubtful
As for why this list is in the hands of Sanyang, the reason is also simple, because Sanyang, as a member of the cabinet, their establishment is not in the cabinet.
In the current Yongle era, the cabinet is only a temporary office, and the identity of the cabinet members belongs to the "sending" of Sanyang, and their establishment is placed in the Hanlin Academy.
For example, Yang Shiqi and Yang Pu's positions are all edited by the Hanlin Academy (Zheng Qipin), Yang Rong is just mentioned this year as a waiter of the Hanlin Academy (Zheng Liupin), and Xie Jin, who flew out before them, has a career resume as a waiter in the Hanlin Academy, and then served as the editor of the "Taizu Gao Emperor Record", and after completing the "Record", he was promoted to the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy (from the fifth grade), and got the president of the "Yongle Canon" and the vice president of the Yamen of the president's law change affairs. That is, the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy (Zheng Wupin), who was injured for a few months, and made up for the position of Honglu Siqing (Zheng Sipin).
Don't look at Sanyang pointing out the country every day, it stands to reason that they are also a trio who can leave a name in history, but in the early years of Yongle, Xie Jin, whether it is talent, fame or ability, is to stabilize them.
In the first cabinet, the highest academic level is Xie Jin and Hu Yan, Hu Yan is a mellow Confucian who has studied science for decades, and Xie Jin is not only good at science, but also all-round in poetry, songs, calligraphy, painting, and music.
In the Ming Dynasty, Xie Jin calligraphy can be ranked in the forefront, its people, line, grass can be, especially cursive even affected many calligraphers in the late Ming Dynasty, its cursive pen law from the danger of Su, Zhou Boqi, and chased after the Tang and Song dynasties, with Mi Fu, Huaisu and others as the source, the use of ancient methods into a school, the pen vertical and horizontal super easy, free and unrestrained.
Not to mention anything else, just Jiang Xinghuo's handwriting of "Earthworm Walking" was pulled back by Xie Jin, and now Jiang Xinghuo can be regarded as able to write small block letters and line letters when he reviews official documents.
So Xie Jin had just put on the scarlet robe at this time, so don't expect the young Sanyang to really do anything big, and the meaning of this list given to Sanyang is that the emperor wants to send them to the Guozijian to take notes on the spot Yes, that is, the work of a clerk, with their knowledge level and academic status, they are not even enough to participate in the debate.
However, compared with the young people of their same period, the future of Sanyang is undoubtedly bright and ambitious, the Hanlin people have a clear business work, the most basic is the compilation of books in the imperial court, such as the compilation of real records, historical records, etc., if you meet the emperor who does not repair the book, or the first emperor's record is not so troublesome, then it is light, a few years of nothing to do is the norm, usually is poetry and singing or giving lectures to the royal family, but when you meet the Yongle Emperor who likes to repair books, it will be miserable.
Now most of the Hanlin Academy have entered the compilation team of the "Yongle Canon", and the same batch of Hanlin people as Sanyang are copying books every day in the Hanlin Academy until they are dizzy. There are only a few people left, such as Sanyang, who are responsible for participating in the drafting of documents and edicts on a daily basis.
In any case, whether it is drafting a document edict or going to the country to take notes, it is not a heavy errand for Sanyang, these talented young people with higher hearts than the sky, while experiencing the information difference that is extremely close to the center of imperial power, they can only see what they can't do like transparent people, and their mentality is also more complicated.
After discussing the gossip of the list, Sanyang disposed of the affairs of the cabinet again, and then sat in the duty room and drank tea together.
Seeing that the sun was about to set, Yang Shiqi said something behind closed doors.
"You say, is this change really unstoppable?"
Sanyang is of similar age, temperament and conduct are highly deed, although he is not a brother, but after so long to warm up, he is not much different from his brother, plus they are all on Zhu Gaochi's side, and they are a firm prince, so there are some things that cannot be said.
For Yang Shiqi's frustration, Yang Rong was not too surprised.
At the beginning, no one was optimistic about the change of law.
At that time, Jiang Xinghuo was still squatting in the edict prison, and no one supported the change, and the only supporter of the change was Yao Guangxiao, the black-clothed prime minister.
And it is precisely because of Yao Guangxiao's strong support, coupled with the emperor's attitude that he is inclined to change the law, that there is a vigorous prelude to the new policy from the fourth year of Jianwen.
The beginning of the new reform was not smooth, Jing Qing's blood oath shrouded the reform with a thick haze, and the Guozi prisoners who were instigated to collectively knock on the law almost made the reform collapse halfway.
It was Jiang Xinghuo's miraculous performance of turning the tide again and again that allowed the change to pass the initial stage smoothly.
But the difficult follow-up continued, the rebellion in Jiangnan, the heavy water control, and the three debates of "Wang Ba Yi Li Ancient and Modern" that decided whether the law change was justified.
Later, it was the Fengtian Palace, this Ming version of the Salt and Iron Conference, established a new direction of economic development, and along this new direction, the Ming Dynasty began to spend a year to initially develop industry and commerce, and saw remarkable economic results.
Looking back now, all of this has obviously happened in less than a year or two, but for those of them who have witnessed it, or rather bystanders, it has been like ten years.
From no one to share, to gradually growing, until today, the reform faction began to occupy one-fifth to one-quarter of the middle and high-level positions in the imperial court, began to achieve all-round victories in politics, economy and other speculative propositions, and began to vigorously develop industry and agriculture and domestic and foreign commerce.
And an unconsciously "backward" mentality also arose in Sanyang's heart.
Somehow, they, the elites of the old era, these young talents, began to lag behind the times.
Helplessly, the flowers fell, and the familiar swallow returned.
The speculation of the country of tomorrow is similar to the three debates of "ancient and modern kings and righteousness" in the past.
Compared with the situation when no one believed that Jiang Xinghuo could win, how many people believe that Hu Yan can win now?
Jiang Xinghuo is now in his body, there is really a "momentum", the road to change the law, that is, the road to the future. Those who go along with it prosper, and those who go against it die.
"The general trend has been achieved, and we can only hope that Hu Sai Wine will have an extraordinary performance."
Yang Pu is not so familiar with Hu Yan, but at this time, he can only come to the link of "believing in Hu Yan".
It is obvious that in addition to Hu Yan, the remaining few Jiang Xinghuo's defeated generals and leftover characters all belong to Zu Mao, Yu She, and Pan Feng who were paved before Guan Erye killed Huaxiong. You can't count on them completely.
"I'm really unwilling."
Yang Rong smiled bitterly, he couldn't empathize with Yang Shiqi's feelings.
But at this time, Yang Shiqi thought about it for a long time, gritted his teeth and got up.
"At the same age, the same self-comparison genius, but look at Jiang Xinghuo, we are even far behind Xie Jin, and we feel sorry for ourselves every day, fantasizing about who can really turn the tide, or fantasizing about sitting and watching people rise tall buildings, banquet guests, and buildings collapse, what's the use?"
"What are you going to do?"
Yang Pu was the latest to enter the cabinet, and he was cautious, sometimes cautious and even a little excessive, and rarely made risky moves, so it was a little difficult to understand this appearance.
According to Yang Pu's mentality, these cabinet members are all low-level workers, even if they feel that their talents are higher than the sky, sometimes they can point out the country and vent it, isn't this the time for us to show our strengths? Slowly boil it, what can't sit still.
But Yang Shiqi is not like this, unlike Yang Rong's slightly contradictory personality of being good at observing words and looking at words and being arrogant, Yang Shiqi's harsh living environment in his early years has created his tenacious and always want to be the first.
But although Yang Shiqi's talent is high, since he joined the office, he has always been in a depressed state of "there is a sky outside the sky", not only in the cabinet was the first genius of the Ming Dynasty ten years ago, the "Lianzhong Sanyuan" Xie Jinjie gentry suppressed, even Xie Jin's head, there is also a more perverted immortal Jiang Xinghuo suppressed, Yang Shiqi is always in a state of not being able to raise his head.
This kind of psychology is like the top genius of a certain mortal world, after surviving the heavenly tribulation and ascending to immortality, he found that he was only one of the 100,000 heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals who besieged the monkey.
In an instant, the mentality collapsed!
In fact, to be honest, don't say that it's Jiang Xinghuo, and even Xie Jin, I'm afraid he didn't take Sanyang as an opponent.
But unconsciously, for a long time, Sanyang, a genius who has been a little bit of a genius, has always been suppressed There is a good saying, if you don't explode in silence, you will die in silence.
Seeing that the Fa-changing faction was about to complete its work in this last ideological debate on "the style of officials, the style of the world, and the style of study", and that the entire Ming Dynasty's thinking would be completely unified in one direction in the future, Yang Shiqi finally couldn't sit still.
Whether he believes Hu Yan or not, this time he wants to go on his own!
"I will definitely participate in tomorrow's debate."
Listening to Yang Shiqi's loud words, Yang Rong looked at this old friend seriously.
This is really open.
If Yang Shiqi wants to participate, he must be an opposing debater, and it is impossible to shout for Jiang Xinghuo.
But Jiang Xinghuo is now their top boss, you go out and openly oppose your top boss on his matter of principle, you can see through it and it will be over if you don't wear your little shoes.
A few colleagues in the office privately form a small group, disagreeing with the views of the immediate boss and the management method is one nature, and if you make it public, that is another nature.
"Calm down."
"I'm calm right now."
Yang Shiqi didn't pace back and forth in the duty room as usual, but looked at Yang Rong and Yang Pu seriously, and asked, "Let's order Hanlin and enter the cabinet, what's the point?" β
"Hanlin is hopeful, and the cabinet is experienced." Yang Pu's answer is a standard answer, and there is nothing wrong with it.
"Hope? Is there a better opportunity in the world than now? As for the experience. Now that I've been trained, the center is just about these things, it's a big deal, let me go to the local place as a county order. β
Yang Shiqi obviously thought about it, and he said seriously to the two friends: "I want to play tomorrow, I don't want to turn the tide and help the building to fall, but this year, what I have done and thought is really uncomfortable, and my heart is depressed here, and if I don't express it, my heart is really uncomfortable, this is the last chance." β
Seeing that Yang Shiqi is so honest, Yang Rong is also related, why is he not like this? Covered by the light of Jiang Xinghuo, there is no chance to shine, and it was originally a self-consciously radiant existence, but unfortunately now it is the same as the light of rice grains and Haori.
It's just that compared with Yang Shiqi, Yang Rong is more patient.
Sanyangli is Yang Pu, who entered the cabinet the latest, because he has not personally experienced the time when Jiang Xinghuo lectured in the edict prison, and he has not experienced watching Jiang Xinghuo go from a step to today's position step by step, and obtain today's achievements, so the psychological gap is not so big, plus Yang Pu is cautious and has a relatively peaceful mentality, so it is not so difficult to accept.
But Yang Pu can also understand Yang Shiqi's mentality.
"How sure are you?" Yang Pu asked.
Yang Shiqi hesitated for a moment and replied: "Three points, I'll try it first, and if this is done, I'll discuss the specific arguments with you." β
"But what if Jiang Xinghuo doesn't agree? The list is, after all, decided by him. β
"Then I'll go into the palace to find Your Majesty, no matter what, I have to try it too."
Seeing that Yang Shiqi had already decided to do this, Yang Rong and Yang Pu naturally couldn't stop it, and watched Yang Shiqi go to the president's law change affairs yamen to find Jiang Xinghuo, and they could only wait for good news.
To be honest, even if Yang Shiqi was scolded by Jiang Xinghuo, or simply let people beat him out, Yang Rong and Yang Pu would not have the slightest surprise.
But the unexpected came.
It didn't take long for Yang Shiqi to return.
The list in his hand has his name added, signed by Jiang Xinghuo himself, and it is very neat.
"How?"
Yang Rong's face was a little strange, and he swallowed.
Yang Pu also turned his head and leaned over, with some exploration in his eyes.
"Didn't Jiang Xinghuo think you were going to help him?"
Yang Shiqi just shook his head silently, looking a little lost.
He sat down on the couch in the duty room, grabbed the blanket and didn't speak for a long time, almost scaring Yang Rong and Yang Pu.
Yang Rong walked over and patted Yang Shiqi on the shoulder, and touched his arm again, but he didn't see any obvious injuries, not like he had been beaten. However, this kind of thought is just a matter of a moment, and the dynasty still has a system and rules, no matter how much you don't deal with it, you won't really hit people.
"What's wrong? Could it be that he scolded you? β
"Nope."
Yang Shiqi came back to his senses at this time, and said with a complicated expression: "He only said that you are here." β
"I asked what this meant, he said that he made a bet with Rong Guogong before, betting that I would come after reading the list, and I came before sunset today, he was very happy, after all, he was a little angry, and this game is interesting."
