"Whoa."

"It's too much of a deception."

Mandarin Palace.

Zhu Zhanji was furious, and the cultural relics on the desk were scattered all over the place, including today's latest newspaper, which published Tao Lian's detailed speech report, and many words deeply stung Zhu Zhanji.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is angry."

The officials in the clerical room hurriedly dissuaded him, and Yu Qian also looked at the prince.

"Without a king and without a father, he is a beast."

The angry Zhu Zhanji talked about the quotations created by Mencius's disciples, and scolded: "My father is benevolent and loves the people, and he is deeply admired by all the people. However, there are always villains in the world, narrow-minded, and shameless. They didn't know the emperor's grace, but repaid virtue with grievances, and even spoke ill of their fathers. Such a villain is a shame! I am both a servant and a son, and I am blind. Swear to be loyal to your duties, defend the emperor's prestige, and set the record straight! ”

Zhu Zhanji demanded that Tao Lian be arrested and severely punished for the crime of great disrespect, completely ignoring the fact that he had been accompanied by this person a few months ago.

The Jinyi Guard immediately sent out a scout.

The local officials who received the official document for cooperation with the arrest did not dare to refuse, but Tao Ling's temporary residence had already broken through the threshold, and waves of people came to advise Tao Ling.

"Tao Gong took advantage of the fact that Jinyiwei did not come to hide, and after this turmoil, His Royal Highness the Prince's anger subsided, and then asked someone to intercede, and the matter was probably over, wouldn't it be two pennies."

He said diligently.

Tao Jun shook his head.

"I'm not guilty, and Jinyiwei doesn't have the right to arrest people."

After years of reform, Jinyiwei only has the right to investigate cases, but not the right to arrest people. When the lobbyist heard this, he smiled wryly.

Thirty years ago, the name of Jinyiwei changed, and now although it has been greatly changed, Jinyiwei is Jinyiwei in the end, with the orders of His Royal Highness the Prince, what does Jinyiwei dare not do.

It is the royal family who asks Jinyiwei not to arrest people, and in the same way, the royal family can also change their minds and allow Jinyiwei to arrest people.

Seeing everyone's attitude, Tao Jun sighed slightly in his heart.

It was time for the day of his martyrdom.

The road is never smooth, the road of the road is full of dangers and obstacles, Tao Lian saw the avenue, for which he was willing to give his life to wake up more people.

If one pottery is dead, more will be born.

Zhejiang's political envoys are going crazy.

Jin Yiwei had already arrived in Zhejiang, and when he learned that Tao Wei was still in place, he looked at the political envoy in a daze.

The political envoy was very helpless.

There is a tacit understanding between the officialdom, Jin Yiwei's movements are so slow, he gives enough time to the place, but the place is not solved, and Jin Yiwei can only arrest people hard, Tao Ling's residence is full of people.

His disciples and friends could not persuade Tao Gong to leave, and they stood in front of Jinyiwei.

In the end, Dafang got angry, injured a few people before taking Tao Rong away and pressing into the capital, when Tao Rong was escorted back, Zhu Zhanji had already regretted it, this was a big trouble.

Jin Yiwei does not have his own prison, if he is taken into the prison of the Criminal Department, he needs to go through the procedure, and the movement is getting bigger and bigger, but it is not possible to start a private prison. In the end, Yang Pu came forward and entered Dali Temple in a low-key manner.

The duty of Dali Temple is to hear and adjudicate cases, and it belongs to the Supreme Court of Daming.

Dali Siqing is a high-ranking official of Zheng Sanpin, and the matter was immediately reported to Zhu Gaochi.

Looking at the direction of the Wenhua Palace, Zhu Gaochi's face was very calm.

"Handle this matter yourself, and take the charter first." Zhu Gaochi said lightly.

Preparations for the war with the Delhi Sultanate had already begun, and Zhu Gaochi did not have much time.

First Cao Duan's thoughts, and then Tao Jun's thoughts, Zhu Gaochi seemed to see the development trajectory of history, and history was slowly unfolding in front of him, but Zhu Gaochi had to adopt a conservative attitude.

No matter how bad a stable society is, it is better than a civilized and chaotic society.

Daming is now a period of rapid development, stability is the main premise, Zhu Gaochi does not plan to give up power in his life, one is because he does not want to delay the speed of development, and the other is that he has no confidence.

The road to building spiritual civilization is too difficult, and a bad situation will cause tremendous harm, and Zhu Gaochi does not have much confidence.

Also, Zhu Gaochi wanted to see how Zhu Zhanji handled this matter.

Wenlou didn't react, Zhu Zhanji was under more pressure, and he began to regret it in his heart, he shouldn't have made a decision easily when he was angry.

Dali Temple does not have a prison for long-term prisoners.

Tao Lian was held in a separate prison, because there were too many people paying attention, the prison not only prepared enough food, but also invited a doctor to treat Tao Lian, for fear that Tao Lian would have an accident in prison.

"In the fifteenth year of Yongle, when the old man was in the prime of life, he gave a speech in Beiping Guozijian, telling people to understand the correct truth of things, understand their own hearts, and unite knowledge and action."

Several disciples went into the prison in private to visit their teacher.

Tao Jun, who is nearly fifty years old, recalled the deeds of his youth with his disciples, and began to explain the aftermath in a changing direction, mainly because of his own knowledge and thoughts.

The disciples were full of tears and recorded Mr.'s words word by word.

There are several times of ideological surge in the Ming society, and there have been three waves of trends in the Yongle Dynasty, which provides a broad foundation for the growth and popularization of new learning, behind the new learning ideas, not only the women are bright and bright on the streets, but also can squeeze the bus with the men, which is only one aspect.

Although ordinary people do not understand these truths, society is indeed changing invisibly.

It's not forced.

Just as spitting was the norm in the 70s, it has become a very rare phenomenon in the new century, which is a phenomenon brought about by social progress and civilization, and is based on economic development.

Everything is traceable, and it is an inevitable phenomenon.

The industrial development of the Ming society has promoted the prosperity of the economy, and the economic prosperity table is a high degree of free activity of people, and more frequent exchanges can have prosperous trade.

Since the Southern Song Dynasty, after experiencing the Yuan Dynasty, the social atmosphere has become more and more conservative, and since the Yongle Dynasty, there has been a huge loosening under the impact of waves.

During the Tang Dynasty, the self-confidence on the faces of the people began to return to the faces of the people of Middle-earth.

Confidence means openness.

Openness is a spirit.

The current Daming is better than the Datang, and it is twice stronger than the Datang, which naturally gives birth to a stronger spirit of civilization.

But the inertia of history is also enormous.

Although the founding of the Ming Dynasty has been nearly a Jiazi, the memory of being enslaved is still in the hearts of the people, and these untouchable insults and scars are still firmly locked in people's hearts.

People are afraid of open societies.

Fearing that they would repeat the mistakes of the past and fall into the defeat of the Northern Song Dynasty.

The problem of the military defeat of the Northern Song Dynasty was definitely not only a problem of suppressing military power, but a problem of the whole society.

There are more intelligent people, they have seen more, and they think that the Great Dao should be like that, not like this, because of the existence of the Holy Monarch, they have more confidence, a very ridiculous phenomenon.

Tao believes that all people in society are created equal, and no one is nobler than anyone else.

People mocked him and laughed at him.

even called him a nerd.

But there are also people who recognize him.

Sure enough, the news of His Royal Highness the Prince's arrest of Tao Lian was published in the newspaper in a small amount, and most people did not react, and only regarded it as an after-dinner affair, but some people were full of concern.

Someone told Tao that as long as he admitted his mistake, the matter would be over.

Tao Jun did not admit his mistake.

Tao Cheng began a hunger strike.

Although he cannot speak to the world, he is ready to speak out through his own life and tell the world that all men are created equal.

Tao Ling's hunger strike was like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.

The officials talked a lot, the atmosphere in the Wenhua Hall was tense, and Zhu Zhanji sat behind the desk with his brows furrowed. As the crown prince, he faced pressure from all sides to not only worry about his father, but also to do everything well.

The crown prince has his own subordinates, but no one dares to make up his mind.

Tao Jun is a great sage in the world, and if he doesn't make trouble, he will be ruined and leave a bad reputation in history, which no one wants.

Zhu Zhanji was a little disappointed, and at the last critical moment, Yang Pu decided to come forward.

As the prince's teacher, he knows that he has the responsibility to guide the prince and escort him. So, he decided to go to the prison of Dali Temple in person and have a face-to-face conversation with Tao Jun.

Tao Lian in prison has been very weak for a month.

From the moment he decided to go on a hunger strike, he was ready for what would happen after his death, and Tao Lian officially started a hunger strike, which was a real hunger strike, not a political show for later generations. Although his body is getting weaker and weaker, his eyes are still determined.

Yang Pu looked at him with mixed feelings in his heart.

He admired Tao Ling's courage and sighed at his persistence. Under the temptation of power and interests, Tao Lian was unmoved, just to stick to the belief in his heart, which most people can't do.

Yang Pu took a deep breath, trying to calm the excitement in his heart.

He said to Tao Jun gently: "Why are you so stubborn, at the cost of your life? Isn't the current Ming Dynasty bad? The emperor is so virtuous, why should he be so extreme. ”

"Yes, Da Ming is the best, and he deserves to be the best."

Tao Jun smiled slightly, his eyes firm.

Yang Pu was stunned.

Tao Jun looked at Yang Pu clearly, "All people are equal, this is the belief in my heart, and the old man is willing to defend it with my life." ”

Without waiting for the other party to answer, Tao Wei continued leisurely: "The current emperor is the greatest man, and with his wisdom, I believe he must understand this truth. However, even he did not have the confidence to put it into practice, which shows how difficult this path is. ”

He paused, as if thinking about how best to express his point. Then, he added firmly: "But the Great Way will always be the Great Way, and it will not disappear because of our fears." Since the avenue is there, people should be brave enough to approach it, even if it costs a great deal to do so. ”

Such a person with lofty ideals is definitely not something that can be shaken by words.

Yang Pu gave up the next consolation and left the prison in frustration.

Seeing the master's demeanor and knowing that the other party had not changed his mind, Zhu Zhanji could no longer control his temper. He said angrily, "Why did everyone come and force me? Why didn't anyone think about it for me? Everyone thinks only of their own interests and never thinks of me. ”

Zhu Zhanji had deep exhaustion and pain on his face.

Under pressure from all sides, he has to maintain the dignity of the royal family, but also has to face all kinds of complex interpersonal relationships, all kinds of struggles and contradictions, and he doesn't know what to do, for fear of causing his father's disappointment.

Zhu Zhanji never thought that he had done wrong, everything was done to satisfy his father.

Only when the father is satisfied with himself can he prove that he has done a good job.

Yang Pu soothed: "Don't be too anxious, prince. Everyone has their own choices and pursuits, and not necessarily all of them are for themselves. The prince had to believe in his own abilities and wisdom and face everything bravely. ”

Zhu Zhanji calmed down a little.

Take a deep breath and try to calm your emotions.

Zhu Zhanji knew that his father must be concerned about this matter, and at this critical moment, he could not let his emotions dictate his decision-making, and he needed to think more rationally about the problem and find a way to solve the problem.

On the second day, Zhu Zhanji, in the name of the crown prince, demanded that all newspapers not allow any news on the matter, and then released Tao Lian, escorted Tao Lian to his home, and sent someone to live under residential surveillance.

In this case, even if Tao Wei starves to death, he will starve to death in his own home.

The Daming Industry Bureau and the Guozijian are not allowed to contact this person.

After many measures, Zhu Zhanji forcefully suppressed the matter, at least there was no movement among the people, and only half a month later, some voices immediately disappeared without a trace.

Wen Lou.

There is a complete record on Zhu Gaochi's desk.

Zhu Gaochi remembered someone.

There are really many thinkers who died on hunger strikes in the history of the Ming Dynasty.

For example, Liu Zongzhou, a thinker who was killed on a hunger strike by the Qing army, was also the founder of the Qishan School, and the great Confucians Huang Zongxi, Chen Qu, and Zhang Luxiang in the early Qing Dynasty were all descendants of this school.

and He Xinyin, a thinker who was arrested and imprisoned for opposing Zhang Juzheng's closure of private schools, and began a hunger strike to protest, and finally died of hunger strike.

He Xinyin advocates the same desire with the people.

In the feudal society of class antagonism, he demanded that we should first care about the common people, meet the needs of the people's life, and ensure that the people's food and clothing can be guaranteed and can live a normal life, and they will naturally be satisfied, so as to establish a harmonious society that everyone yearns for, which is the ideal society He pursues.

Finally, the Juhetang was created in order to realize his ideal of Datong society of "inner saint and outer king", which was different from the ruling model of the feudal ruling class at that time.

It is not only a comprehensive management organization integrating clan and social autonomy, but also a social organization integrating production activities, culture and education, and social assistance.

It is also a typical example of the popularization of Confucianism, and it is a practical attempt by He Xinyin with a strong purpose of social transformation. Juhetang pays attention to rights, obligations, economic fairness and equality.

At the same time, it also contains the idea that kings and ministers, fathers and sons, brothers, and friends are equal to each other, and so on.

For his own avenue, He Xinyin also chose to give his life.

That's where the fears of the aspirants lie.

In the eyes of such people, noble aspirations are the most important, far more important than life, and it is precisely because of these people that they support the backbone of Chinese civilization.

Pity.

Zhu Gaochi shook his head.

As an emperor, for the development of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Gaochi did not have the confidence to achieve the ideal society of these people, and it was important for him to seize the present, at least win the war first.

When we win the war, let's discuss these avenues.

Soon after.

Zhu Neng arrived in Samarkand and began to assemble the western army, and according to the consultation between the cabinet and the military department, he no longer used the army of the whole country, but used the western army and the Beijing camp.

In addition to confidence in the Ming army, even if the war is lost, it will not completely shake the foundation of the Ming army.

Compared with the foreign wars of the Yongle Dynasty, Zhu Gaochi chose to be conservative.
