"Yu Qian, you kid come over to me!"

Zhu Gaoxian saw Yu Qian, who was sitting on the side reading a book, and beckoned.

Yu Qian hurriedly put down the book in his hand and walked over, saluted and asked, "Sir, what are your orders?" ”

"I told you to read less and practice more, but you didn't let go of your heart?"

Zhu Gaoxian said helplessly, "I called you from the Academy of Literature and asked you to follow me to the southern tour, just to give you a chance to practice, but you are good, this book is not an inch, isn't it a perverse move?" ”

"Lone teaches you the academics of the Heart Sect, you have to find a way to pass on the Heart Sect, Lone is such a personal disciple as you."

Yu Qian said ashamedly: "The student knows that he is wrong, please rest assured, Mr., Yu Qian will carry forward my heart sect academics!" ”

Zhu Gaoxian bowed slightly: "The children can be taught." ”

Study? Read a fart!

I accept you as a student because I want you to help me preach, carry forward my Xinzong, let Xinzong academics replace Confucianism as the mainstream of culture in the Ming Dynasty, and make me the academic authority and pinnacle of the literati of the Ming Dynasty, and become a representative of culture, so as to maintain the absolute stability of the right to speak.

Can you read an egg?

But he couldn't say these words explicitly, so he could only remind him euphemistically: "Yu Qian, you have to understand Lone's painstaking heart, in the past when the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period were contending, how brilliant the scholarship of my Han people was, it was the cultural pinnacle of the entire Central Plains and the whole world. But in the past 2,000 years, the culture of our Han people has not advanced but retreated, what is perverse? This is perverse! ”

"Two thousand years of precipitation have not made Confucian culture more colorful, but have made Confucianism sink to the bottom. only knows how to be corrupt in private, intrigue in officialdom, harm the people and benefit themselves. ”

Lone has always firmly believed that in order to make the country rich and strong, there are three core directions. The first is policy, which determines the rational functioning of a country's economy, military, and politics. The second item is science and technology, science and technology, is a country has no sword proof, the world often says, in the past Wei Wushu was so majestic, but if I let the Ming Dynasty's Beijing camp and Wei Wushu touch, then Wei Wushu, who Wei is proud of, is like a paper paste. Because, my Ming Dynasty's Beijing camp has guns and cannons, and has the current equipment of the world's pinnacle. That's the power of technology. ”

"The third core, and the most important one, is culture."

"A virtuous culture can bring a high degree of stability and tranquility to an imperial court, while an inferior culture can bring a vicious circle of corruption. Culture is not just a simple book, it is a symbol of thought, and it is a kind of spiritual panacea for the Chinese people. ”

"Because the culture of the Southern Song Dynasty is too inferior, the Song Dynasty has been praised so far, but this is only the culture of art, the most important culture is the will of the Song people, the will of the Song people has been defeated again and again with land reparations, their generals died in internal fighting, their soldiers fought bloodily, but the court failed to live up to the victory they exchanged for their lives, what if they won the battle, the court will still pay compensation to the enemy country, in the long run, do the Song people still have the will to speak of?"

Zhu Gaoxian never thought that the Ming Dynasty was invincible in the world if it had guns and cannons, and the biggest enemy of the Ming Dynasty was the imperial court itself.

A certain group of people in the West engage in chaotic travel and zero-yuan purchases every day, which is also a kind of culture, but it is just the negative impact of the despicable culture of the people at the bottom. The real superior culture brings social stability and prosperity, and the high cultivation and quality of the human class.

If there is no high level of cultural heritage, then no matter how strong the country is, it will eventually fall apart due to cultural weakness.

The red giants that stood in the north in the twentieth century fell apart due to the collapse of the system, and the collapse of the system originated from the lack of cultural heritage.

If the cultural background is insufficient, even if Zhu Gaoxian leads the Ming Dynasty to become the world's first power and includes the territory of the world into the territory of the Ming Dynasty, then it will only be a flash in the pan in the end, because the world's first power cannot rule the country's territory, cannot assimilate the territory conquered by itself, and will fall apart due to cultural incompatibility.

Yu Qian said excitedly: "The student understands! ”

Zhu Gaoxian touched his head: "What do you understand?" ”

Now he just wants to fool Yu Qian to become a missionary, so that the Heart Sect can spread out, God knows what this kid has had an epiphany.

Yu Qian looked at Zhu Gaoxian's eyes full of admiration and longing, as if a faithful believer had arrived at the temple to worship, his voice was impassioned, and he trembled because he was too excited: "Sir, you are a saint, the first saint of this dynasty, no, the first saint of the ages!" ”

"Sir is the guide who holds the lamp in the darkness of the academic world to illuminate the way forward, the life-saving straw on the edge of the cliff, and the sage who guides us back on track!"

"One life is the life of ten thousand years, Mr. is a saint standing on the top of the mountain, but he does not forget to stretch out his hand to pull the people under the mountain, lead us up to the top of the mountain, have an epiphany in the cold wind, and enlighten in the clouds!"

Zhu Gaoxian paused for a moment and said with relief: "Yu Qian, you have finally grown, and you are very happy to be a teacher." ”

This is so small that it can really make up for the brain!

Zhu Gaoxian just bragged and drew a circle, and Yu Qian seemed to see the picture scroll of gods and Buddhas in the sky, and took it as a belief. If everyone in the world is like Yu Qian, then Zhu Gaoxian is still a ghost on the southern tour, and he can complete the unification of the ideological and spiritual world by directly squatting in Beijing to preach, so why bother to travel south to maintain the imperial power.

Zhang Muzhi smacked his tongue and said: "Although I don't understand, I was shocked. Your Highness, you still lack students, and I also want to study under you. ”

Zhu Gaoxian joked: "Under the Heart Sect, there is no class. Even if you are a street vendor, a pawn, a car seller, or someone else, you can also enter the door of my heart sect. Culture is not the culture of one person, it is the culture of a group of people, it is the culture of all people, in the face of knowledge, all beings are equal, and everyone is qualified to learn the scholarship of the Heart Sect. ”

He was just joking, but after hearing this, Yu Qian looked around and found a pen and paper to write.

And Zhang Muzhi was also in awe after hearing this, and bowed down: "Brother Yu Qian is right, Your Highness, you are really a saint." ”

Zhu Gaoxian blinked: "I said it casually, don't take it seriously." ”

"No, no, no, sir, this is not a casual mention, the student has already recorded it."

Yu Qian took the paper in his hand and said excitedly, "In the past, the disciples of Confucius recorded their remarks in a book and taught them from generation to generation. The language of the speakers, the language of the sages, the commentators, the discussions of the Confucians. The student union will record all the remarks of Mr., and then let the officials of the Hanlin Academy compile a book and publish it, and the title of the book has been thought of by the students, it is called "The Holy Words of the Heart Sect", I don't know what Mr. thinks? ”

Zhu Gaoxian was silent for a while, and gave a thumbs up: "Yu Qian, you can become a teacher." ”

All he thought about was oral transmission, and he had expected that he would already have the idea of publishing a book.

It seems that Yu Qian is more suitable than him to be the head of this pyramid scheme.

Yu Qian said humbly: "My teacher is falsely praised, the student's knowledge is still shallow, far from the level of the teacher, my teacher's knowledge is like the sea, if the student can learn the virtue of the cow from the body of my teacher, it can be regarded as a generation of everyone." ”

"Sir, rest assured, the "Heart Sect Holy Words" will eventually spread all over the world, becoming a book of sages praised by people everywhere, although at this time the student just recorded a sentence, but the student can already see the world in a trance praising the most holy picture of my teacher."

Zhu Gaoxian coughed dryly: "Then you are indeed quite in a trance." ”

Zhang Muzhi knelt down on the spot: "Sir, please let me also become your substitute for the sage philosophy when you wander around the world, this is a great cause for the benefit of the world!" ”

Zhu Gaoxian was a little confused: "You stay in the yamen of Jinyiwei every day, either killing people or interrogating, passing on chicken feathers?" ”

"The brilliance of the saints will eventually be sprinkled in every corner of the world, so that everyone will be illuminated by the holy light!"

Zhang Muzhi said eloquently, "Even if they are the operators and dark stakes of the Jinyi Guard, they have been in the shadows for a long time, and they need to be often illuminated by the Holy Light to dispel the gloom in their hearts. If the death row prisoners in the edict prison who are about to go to the execution ground can read the "Heart Sect Holy Words" before going on the road, what a glory and what a cure it should be. ”

Yu Qian couldn't help but sigh: "Senior brother, you have understood." ”

Zhang Muzhi arched his hand and said, "I still have a lot to learn from my senior brother. ”

Zhu Gaoxian's brain was buzzing: "Wait a while, before Lone speaks, you two will be called by senior brother and junior brother?" ”

……

Yangzhou Mansion, a pair of stone lions in front of the door are angry and round-eyed, majestic and towering, there are century-old trees in the courtyard, prosperous and lush. Just after the spring thunder, the rain in the yamen hit the blue gray terracotta, and the flowing water was clean.

In the upper room of the official mansion, the decoration is simple, after all, a prefect will leave after serving for two or three years, there is no need to be too extravagant, after all, it is in the yamen, and the place of Yangzhou is close to Nanjing, so it is better to be restrained.

The current Yangzhou prefect Kang Shike tidied up his clothes under the service of his subordinates, dressed in a four-grade official robe, so angry, and asked casually: "Are all the guests here?" ”

The subordinate said respectfully: "Jiangdu Ma clan, Beicheng Lu clan, and the contemporary patriarch of the Fan clan of Fan Wenzhenggong's descendants, and the seventeen big families with heads and faces in Yangzhou, are already waiting for you in the inner hall." ”

"That's very good."

Kang Zhifu nodded, "You let the people who are waiting in the inner hall step back for the time being, and today's conversation must not be known to outsiders." ”

"Understood."

After Kang Zhifu sorted out the clothes, Long Xinghu walked to the inner hall of the Ya, compared to the upper room of the official house, the decoration of the inner hall seems to be very cardial, and the four paintings in the eyes are all ink paintings, and the paintings are four gentlemen, which are pleasing to the eye.

In the inner hall, a group of Yangzhou powerful gentry were already waiting here, and after seeing Kang Zhifu, they all got up and bowed their hands: "Lord Fuzun." ”

"Everyone, don't be polite, this is really a stabbing official."

Kang Zhifu waved his hand and said, "There are no outsiders here, only the official and you, and the rest have already retreated." I have summoned you today to speak to you. ”

The patriarch of the Fan clan nodded and said, "If Lord Fuzun has any instructions, we will definitely follow them." ”

Fan is the descendant of Fan Wenzhenggong, that is, the second son of Fan Zhongyan, a Ming minister of the Northern Song Dynasty. The surname Fan is derived from the surname Qi, which belongs to Yi as the surname and is one of the six secretaries of the Jin State. Fan's ancestors have been prominent at the beginning of the surname, since the Shihui Fan Wuzi, Fan Wenzi, Fan Xuanzi and Fan Xianzi, generations are all the secretary of the Jin State, since the beginning of the Spring and Autumn Period, Fan is one of the families.

In that year, due to the southern invasion of the Jin soldiers and Mongolia, the Fan family moved south, and the Fan family of Yangzhou moved here, inherited and took root, and became stronger and stronger, becoming the representative of the Yangzhou family gate valve, the patriarch of the Fan family, is the leader of the Yangzhou gate valve.

"Since Fan Lao is so polite, then the official will also make it clear."

Kang Zhifu coughed lightly and said slowly, "You should all know that the prince is coming to Yangzhou." ”

The patriarch of the Fan clan bowed slightly, and said: "When the old man's friends in Beijing exchanged letters with me, he mentioned that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was going to tour the south, and the first stop was Yangzhou. Since the crown prince's first stop was Yangzhou, it is enough to see that the imperial court still attaches great importance to our Yangzhou, which is the first in the world, and this is the merit of the lord of the palace. ”

"Fan Lao is polite, the official is also taking office, it has only been a year in the term, Yangzhou is prosperous, it is all your credit, and in the future, I still need to ask you for advice."

When Governor Kang said this, he also revealed the true face of Lushan, "This official will go straight to the point, the prince is touring the south, and he is accompanied by Zhang Muzhi, the commander of the Jinyi Guard." Lord Zhang has written to me to warn, let the official first visit the chamber of commerce and clan in Yangzhou for the prince, he came to Yangzhou, will inspect the granary and silver warehouse, after all, the imperial court is going to the north this year, which is also reasonable, the official also wants to ask, your attitude. ”

In and out of the words, Kang Zhifu has made it very clear.

Yangzhou is rich, but the government only holds a small head in its hands, and the real big head is in the hands of these wealthy gentlemen. These people control the imperial examination and promotion in Yangzhou, and the officials who come out of Yangzhou are all in the system of the wealthy gentry family, and they are called fellow villagers, but in fact, they are all in charge. And Yangzhou's prosperous commerce and trade are also controlled by these family valves behind the scenes.

Although it has only been a year since Kang Zhifu came to Yangzhou, he has already figured out the urine nature of these family valves, and they will inevitably be indispensable to rob money with silver, and they will disappear without a trace if they contribute money and efforts.

If you play like this on weekdays, forget it, this is a tacit thing, but now that the prince is touring south, the brothers can't symbolically dig out, you can't let the prince go home empty-handed.

Everyone said that they would inspect the granary and the silver warehouse, which was obviously to withdraw money, this prince was a plague god, and the Kang Governor knew that if the other party returned empty-handed, let alone the black gauze hat on his head, even his head might not be able to be saved.

Seventeen Yangzhou clans, counting the Yangzhou Mansion represented by Kang Zhifu, a total of eighteen families, everyone united to make up a little, that is also a large amount of food and silver, as long as the prince can be served well, let him return with a full load and coax away, how should everyone come or how to come, everything is safe.

And his sentence "In the next time, I still need to ask you for ......advice", in fact, he is also warning these patriarchs that he still has kung fu in Yangzhou, if these patriarchs don't help him pass the prince's pass, he, the prefect of Yangzhou, will have time to settle these families.

These official words, the patriarchs of the family naturally understood, they looked at each other, and discussed in a low voice, as if they were calculating something.

Kang Zhifu sat firmly on the Taishi chair, he was not in a hurry, he just hoped that these patriarchs could understand the reality.

Some things can be fooled, and some things can't be fooled.

If you dare to fool the current prince, he is really good at killing.

Did he kill fewer people?
