"Etiquette, righteousness and shame are essentially means to control them, and they don't feel that they will lose face."

"It's really a dog can't change eating, and the New Donglin Party has never changed over the years! Since they are doing this, then we will simply leave this pair of picks, and no one will want to benefit from this ritual! ”

Unlike the angry Xu Zhun, Yang Baize, who is shallow in age, exudes a calmness that does not match his age.

"The people's hearts are like iron, not like iron, and the official law is like a furnace. In their eyes, there is no difference between us and ordinary people, ordinary people are slaves, we are official slaves, our resistance is not like iron, and their official law is really like a furnace. Even Master Li can't resist, what's the difference between me picking on my son and giving up Inuyama Castle to others? ”

Xu Zhun, who was full of anger, was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's wrong with Li Bufeng?" ”

"Remove the post of consolation envoy, complete the handover work before the end of the month, return to the empire to report on the work, and the new position will be arranged after the evaluation of the Ministry of Officials is completed."

Xu Zhun suddenly lit up the electronic case in his hand, flipped through the official documents on it and read it carefully, and finally confirmed that there was no relevant information on it.

"Where did the news come from?"

Yang Baize didn't answer his question, but said to himself: "It turns out that I still wonder why the New Donglin Party only gives us the identity of a fellow intellectual, and the real director of the Xuanwei Si Yamen has been hanging empty. Now it seems that they have planned the next drama from the very beginning. ”

The night was cold and thorough.

Xu Zhun's anger slowly dissipated, and his face was gloomy: "Why did Zhang Fengyue do this? Is he afraid that these insatiable silverfish will ruin his great affairs? ”

"Because the real purpose of this party leader is to have the support of these high-ranking lords."

Yang Baize's tone was calm, as if he was paraphrasing someone else's words: "Before his genes are completely exhausted, he will completely implement the new policy, and include the Japanese region in the two capitals and thirteen provinces of the empire, so as to realize the real expansion of the territory!" With this precedent, other sin districts will follow suit. Today next year, perhaps the dragon flag of the Ming Empire will fly in the day and night at the same time! ”

"It's too short."

Xu Zhun, who was shocked by Yang Baize's words, muttered after a long silence: "The human heart is unpredictable, and it is impossible to completely tame these sinners in such a short period of time. Once the policy of the sin area is abolished, and all the people merge, when the time comes, you have me, and I have you, won't he worry about luring wolves into the house and burying the root of the curse? ”

"He can't care about that much."

Yang Baize spit out sonorous words: "Zhang Fengyue worked hard and used all means to make his genetic atavism almost the same as his former ancestor Zhang Taiyue, and even the eight characters of his birth date are exactly the same, how could he be willing to give up this life like this?" ”

Xu Zhun was shocked: "Those gate lords who covet the position of party leader, will they watch Zhang Fengyue do this?" ”

"There is only one position as party leader, but there is also only one human life. Rather than fighting to the death and finally becoming someone else's wedding dress, it is better to stand still and wait and see the situation, anyway, the worst result is to maintain the status quo and continue to wag his tail in front of Zhang Fengyue's knees and beg for mercy, which is completely acceptable. ”

Yang Baize sneered: "The gun shoots the first bird, this sentence is circulated among ordinary people, but it is also regarded as a guideline by their own high-ranking scholars, it is really ironic." ”

And Zhang Fengyue did this, which was not only bad for those gate valves. It can even be said that except for the position of the party leader, there is no harm in all benefits. ”

The old man was surprised and asked, "Why?" ”

Yang Baize squinted his eyes and said in an exclamatory tone: "After the sin area is integrated into the empire itself, what will follow is a staggering increase in population. After the new political education, these criminals are not much different from the ordinary people of the empire, and it is no less difficult for other sequences to keep people out of their basic plate. But if it is not stopped, with the infiltration and cultivation ability of Confucianism, it will not be long before their genes, which they have been working hard for so many years, will be completely polluted. ”

"And Confucianism can cultivate countless Confucian talents, and when the time comes, all the world's talents will enter the new Donglin Party, Zhang Fengyue only needs to raise his arms and shout, he can depose a hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism alone!"

Yang Baize exhaled a breath of turbidity and said slowly: "On that day, Zhang Fengyue will be the new Confucian sage, and from then on he will become the genetic source of Confucianism. These are the exact words of the teacher. ”

Xu Zhun's face turned pale, "But if he fails"

"If it fails, the empire will sink mountains and rivers and smoke everywhere, and countless sinners will lurk among us, imitating us, learning from us, and killing us with the sequential power developed by the Ming people for dozens of generations. That kind of scene may even be more desperate than the 'Five Hu Chaohua' I once saw in Huangliang dreams. ”

Yang Baize smiled bitterly: "But so what? For him Zhang Fengyue, these are all aftermaths, who cares about the flood? ”

"In that case, what are we doing here?"

Xu Zhun laughed at himself: "Aiding the abuse, and then being kicked away?" Rather than that, I might as well return to the Empire now, out of sight and out of mind. ”

"The general trend has been achieved, and no Confucian order's followers can escape, nor can they stop it."

Yang Baize's eyes were empty, and in his trance-like expression, he seemed to see the old man who was used to wearing cloth clothes instead of official clothes.

The old but heroic voice sounded in his ears, and Yang Baize subconsciously repeated the other party's words.

"Knowing that you can't do anything, but you still have to use your mantis arm as a car, shouting the bones of a scholar, and then being cleanly crushed into a puddle of mud, that is an unbearable fool at best. Since Zhang Fengyue tied us all to the gambling table, let go of his hands and feet to grab chips in his arms, and wait for the game to decide the outcome of the game, he sat in the village to eat idle, and we desperately killed the bank! ”

As soon as these familiar words entered his ears, Xu Zhun knew who they were coming from.

But before he could savor it, he saw the young man in front of him stand up and pull his back, and said loudly: "So this time I won't hide, and I won't let it." If the New Donglin Party wins, I will be an enemy of them for the rest of my life. If they lose, I will kill the sinners I have civilized! ”

Suddenly, this old official of Huanhai, who has been unpopular because of his hot temper and has never tasted the taste of power in his hands until he is old, swayed his heart, the depression on his face suddenly dissipated, and a touch of pride poured up the door.

"Pei Gong is a hero, Xiao Bai Ze, you also have a bit of the demeanor of his old man when he was young. In the past, I always used my temperament to excuse my recklessness, but now it seems that I have lived to the belly of a dog at this age. ”

Xu Zhun flicked his wrist and handed a palm-long metal pipe to Yang Baize.

"This is something that you asked Pei Gong to help you find."

Yang Baize raised his eyebrows, "Old Xu, you already got it?" ”

"That's right."

Xu Zhun admitted calmly, "This thing is not cheap, even Pei Gong has spent a lot of effort to get it." So I'm going to let you go to the snow to deliver charcoal when he's on the verge of death. At least it's better than before the turmoil arises now, to put the icing on the cake. But it seems that I am the only one. ”

Yang Baize pinched the injector in his palm, and was indeed dissatisfied with Xu Zhun's approach in his heart, but if he opened his mouth to reprimand, he didn't know what to say.

After all, in the final analysis, the other party is also thinking about themselves.

"This time I did something wrong, you should scold. When I followed Pei Gong back then, when did I fiddle with these careful thoughts, wasn't it the bloody dog who was scolded by his old man? ”

Yang Baize pursed his lips and hesitated for a moment, but he never said the dissatisfaction in his heart.

"Ci is not in charge of soldiers, good is not an official, you are a white man, but your teacher is a thin tiger, so you not only have to learn his patience before tracking his prey, but also learn from his fierceness when he kills!"

Poof!

In Yang Baize's shocked gaze, Xu Zhun cut off one of his little fingers.

He grabbed Yang Baize's cold palm and placed the blood-stained severed finger in his white palm.

"This is the last bit of experience I have taught you as an elder. From now on, Xu Zhun is just an old official of the Propaganda Department of Inuyama City. ”

The old man lifted his placket and knelt on one knee.

"Humble permission is allowed to make his own opinions, disobey the order, please punish the adults!"

Yang Baize stared at the dazzling scarlet in his palm, and after a moment, he slowly closed his palm and exhaled.

"This time, your motives are not bad, and you will be fined for half a year to set an example. If there is a next time, he will be dismissed from his post and expelled from the Japanese district! ”

"Thank you, sir!"

In Yang Baize's indifferent and fierce eyes, the old man stood up on his knees, his gray head hung down, and his face was full of deep ravines, but it was an extremely happy smile.
