From the beginning of the play, Kong Youjie frowned, as if he felt that letting a group of Poqiu Ba watch the play in the barracks was too nonsense and unorthodox.
When Wu Mei opened his mouth and began to sing the first paragraph, Kong Youjie lost his voice: "How can you let a woman come?" This is the barracks, the place where the heroes gather, the women are here, do not want to be famous, never marry again, and ignore the reputation of the women in the family? ”
When these words came out, I found that no one echoed him, and no one paid attention to him at the scene, all of them were concentrating on watching the play.
The world chases authority, in the past, the sage relied on the shadow of the ancestors to obtain the authority of the right to speak, naturally there are people who respect everywhere, but the authority of Yu has not been established on the Confucian set from beginning to end, and it was not Confucianism who opposed the Meng people at the beginning, but the camel who carried the coal raised the anti-flag in anger to establish Yu.
Yu State, like Ze State, is an out-and-out military state, the country must be right, and then the emperor is the monarch and the military master, they use the army to rule everything, and the power of Emperor Cheng'an is also inseparable from his military power.
Qiu Yu: To put it bluntly, these two companies did not rely on Confucianism when they were founded, and Confucianism was a shareholder after people succeeded in starting a business.
At the beginning, Yu really gave a lot of shares to those people in the name of Confucianism, and pulled the talents of the literati families from all over the country to the central government as officials, but after that, everyone also saw what the situation was, for a long time, from the emperor to the military offices everywhere were so poor, if it wasn't for Emperor Cheng'an's brother Haiwang and a princess who took his life to fight in the early years, maybe Beimeng would have fought back.
So what about the money that should have been given to them to fight Beimeng? What about their wages? What about the fields and the harvest of the people everywhere? Where have they gone?
Later, the prince took his Lu family army to plow all over the country twice, and the situation gradually improved, which led to the fact that even if everyone knew in their hearts that serious Confucianism was not like the four major families, there were still good officials here who were dedicated to the people, but they had already given birth to doubts about Confucianism in their hearts.
A rat droppings stinks in a pot of soup, and a ton of rat droppings directly makes everyone unable to see the original color of the soup.
Emperor Cheng'an is the lord of a country, and the crown prince Qin Zhanying is the father of all the sergeants, without him, the sergeants will have no military rations, new clothes and equipment.
There is also Lu Xiaoxuan, a supernumerary boss who has sent a large number of generals and a prince to the Yu country, and some courtiers jokingly call the empress the "wild father" of Yu's ministers or "the aunt and grandmother who supports the family from time to time after the rich and noble overseas".
As for the three most powerful holders of imperial power, which one really regarded Confucianism in his eyes?
Emperor Cheng'an and the empress, everyone knows that these two scholars are not good, the prince is a pedantic and heavenly champion casually, but his attitude towards civil officials seems to be like that, if he commits a crime, he will immediately clean up and never give preferential treatment, and if he is not promoted, he will see his ability, and if he is not capable, he will be the grandson of the self-proclaimed Confucian saint, and he will not be taken care of.
And Miao Jiang, Cheng Kailu, and the group of female officials who are naturally hostile to Confucianism, these people have a serious conflict of interest with Confucianism, and Confucianism has developed to this day, and its concepts and ideas are to despise and suppress them, so as to occupy a high position in legal theory and grab more benefits, so they also rolled their eyes at the literati and Confucianism.
After counting these, Qiu Yu was not surprised that Kong Youjie was ignored.
The border army as a whole is a base camp for victims who suffer civilian losses, and those surnamed Kong dare to come here, but they are indeed used to not knowing who they are by the remnants left by their ancestors.
Qiu Yu silently peeled the oranges, the oranges were baked on the stove in advance, the aroma was strong, and it was too late to eat after peeling, so she heard the second verse of "Awakening" on the stage.
This paragraph is wonderful, it is about the plot of satirizing civil officials taking bribes.
Wu Mei's eyebrows were flying, his face was full of pride, the music was urgent, and Wu Mei clearly gave out the words with a speed that was much higher than that commonly used in opera.
"You say that the Qing official has no flaws? Wrong, wrong, wrong, he wants to eat, he wants to dress, he wants to build a big ancestral hall in the clan, and his children and grandchildren want to have a great future. The woman's slender fingertips dotted weakly, "If you give his children and grandchildren a petty official, he will be loyal to Gu Xiang from now on, and completely put aside the incorruptibility!" ”
The Qing official opposite Wu Mei was angry: "The traitor Hugh wants to make this selfish means, my children and grandchildren have their own future, they earn their own fame, and they fight for promotion, why do you need a traitor to envelop you!" ”
Wu Mei laughed: "You are less knowledgeable, you have never seen that slut, kneel for money, kneel for officials, your knees are hard, his knees are soft, see who is good in the end!" ”
Seeing this, Kong Youjie's face immediately changed, Qiu Yu secretly laughed when he saw it, reached out to touch the orange, but found that his orange was gone, he sighed leisurely, put his hand on the table, and continued to watch the play.
The whole story of "Awakening" is very long, and it takes three days and three nights to finish singing, just like chasing dozens of episodes of a serial, Wu Mei sang two verses tonight, and then retired to drink Sydney soup.
Emperor Cheng'an invited Kong Youjie to eat at the gang's camp again, Kong Youjie adjusted his expression back at this time, but unexpectedly after entering the gang's camp, he was still washed by the taste.
In all fairness, in order to prevent the disease, the hygiene index of the Yu army camp is much higher than that of many people, in order to get rid of insects, Qiu Yu did not hesitate to use nearby ore and a large amount of salt to make a potion to prick the skin, and escorted the sergeants to close their eyes and hold their breath to soak themselves from beginning to end.
But there are more men, the taste is really unavoidable, this is still because the yellow race has been genetically mutated, and the body odor is much lower than that of other races, naturally, it is impossible to smoke the camp tent with sandalwood in the military camp, and most of the delicate nobles do not like to come to the army for this reason.
However, the emperor gave a banquet, what else could Kong Youjie do? As soon as "Awakening" was sung, he had a bad premonition in his heart, and he would inevitably have to be a man with his tail between his legs at this time.
When the Confucian family became the courtiers of the Meng, it was indeed a slap in the face of those loyal Wenchen who were loyal to the Han dynasty, but if they did not compromise, how could they keep the sage? They also have no choice!
After so many years of sage duke, the emperors of all dynasties have only sealed them, if the emperor of Yu does not give the title, is it going against the saint's system!
Kong Youjie's thoughts flowed, and he almost choked to death with the steamed buns in his mouth, he tried hard to turn over the water, picked up the soup and drank a bowl before he came back to his senses.
This meal is so coarse, look at the Emperor Cheng'an but eat very fragrant, this Emperor Yu does not say anything else, pretending to be really a set, no wonder the prestige is so strong, looking at the dare to give up the throne and form an alliance with Ze, there are also quite hills and valleys in his heart.
Sooner or later, the world will belong to the Qin family, Kong Youjie must be in his heart, thinking that even if he wants to be humiliated and embarrassed, the unification of this Yu country is also certain, and he can't stop it, so it's better to follow the other party, as long as he keeps the Kong family's business in Shanludao......
At this moment, he heard General Naqiu speak softly: "The soup is not hot, you always have pantothenic acid in your stomach, drink some soup to slow down." ”
Kong Youjie fixed his eyes and found that General Qiu was sitting next to a young man at some point, wearing plain green clothes and leather armor, and at a glance he knew that he was a military Chinese officer and would not personally go into battle.
It's just that this young man's appearance is really ...... Thrilling, Kong Youjie has read countless beauties in his life, and he has never seen such a character, as if the spring scenery of the world is gathered in one, and it is as cold as snow, and it is not like the ordinary.
The young man frowned and said, "Why is there no shrimp skin in the soup?" You said that thing supplements calcium, but I specially stuffed a lot of supplements, who is greedy! ”
There is a murderous aura! All the sergeants around him who were more sensitive were tightened in their backs.
General Qiu replied unhurriedly: "Some people are allergic to shrimp, and there was a swollen one a while ago, if I wasn't there, that person would have suffocated to death, so the shrimp skin was put next to the soup, and those who can eat shrimp scooped a spoonful into the soup, if you want, I'll help you get it?" ”
"Forget it." The boy took out a cloth bag from his bag and opened it to find one
Glass jar with red bean paste.
The young man put the bean paste on the steamed bun to eat, and got up and put the jar on the side of the shrimp skin, and the other sergeants didn't know where the young man came from, only that General Qiu occasionally put the bean curd and the like on the long table to share with the sergeant, and the things were placed so that everyone could eat them.
Some bold people scooped a spoonful in the past, it was really fragrant and spicy, very good for rice, but it was too spicy, and the lips were red and swollen, but the people who took this bite were immediately convinced, and from then on they converted to the spicy party.
General Qiu got up again to make soup for the young man, he finished eating, walked to the opposite side of Kong Youjie, next to Emperor Cheng'an, and tapped the table with his fingers, and Emperor Cheng'an moved and made room for him to sit on.
"What is benevolence?"
Kong Youjie was taken aback, and when he was uncertain in his heart, he still replied: "Benevolence is also a lover." ”
The Five Permanents of Confucianism (not the Five Permanents of the United Nations) are benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and faith, and benevolence are the core of Confucius's thought for thousands of years.
"What is righteousness?"
"Respect for the elders and respect for the virtuous."
"Verbal Righteousness?"
"Of course not." Kong Youjie got up and bowed, took a square step on the spot, pretended to stroke his beard and said, "The ultimate of benevolence and righteousness is etiquette and education, and the Confucian family has been passing on poetry and books for many years, and interpreting the classics is to spread the gift of benevolence and righteousness to all sentient beings, and set an example for the world's scholars." ”
The young man also returned his hand and saluted: "If the scholars of the world regard a multi-dynasty domestic slave who has cultivated the table as an example, it is no wonder that this official rule is becoming more and more turbid, and there are greedy silverfish everywhere. ”
"You!" Kong Youjie's eyes widened, and a breath stuck in his throat, and all kinds of shame and anger welled up in his heart.
It is said that scolding does not expose shortcomings, how can this person say such vicious words to his face!
Qin Zhanying took out a document from her backpack, stacked it thickly, and threaded it into a book with a needle and thread.
"I have looked at the cultivated land of Shanludao in recent years, and I can only say that it is shocking, a huge Shanludao, and the self-cultivated farmers are not as good as the Minfu Road of eight mountains, one water and one field, compared with their family, the Jiao family is a good family, when I ordered the head of the Jiao family, they said that they were diligent and thrifty, and were kind to the people, I saw the situation of this Shanludao, and almost had the illusion that the Jiao family had indeed misunderstood at the beginning."
"Some people are full of love, but the only people they love are scholars, and the people are not people in their eyes, but only livestock."
Qiu Yu echoed: "The more such a place is, the more we have to implement the tax per acre, and then collect the tax per capitation, the land annexation will only become more and more intense, and the peasants will have a very hard time." ”
Qin Zhanying said lightly: "If it weren't for the people, what would I do if I changed my taxes?" Regarding the disposal of the Confucian family, what I mean is this, since when the Meng people called, the Kong family became the official of the Meng people, don't claim to be noble anymore, there is no reason to be a bitch and set up a memorial arch, Yu will not give a knight to an unfaithful dog, we only give people a knighthood. ”
"I'm not here to discuss with you, but to give you one last chance."
Qin Zhanying got up: "If the amount of taxes harvested in the autumn next year is wrong, there is no need to say anything, those who commit crimes will be sentenced according to the law, and those who have not committed crimes will raise their children well, and when they grow up, they will be sent to let them test their own merits and fame, and live a clean life, which can be regarded as defeating the Confucian thief and rescuing the Confucius who has been profited for thousands of years." ”
The crown prince saluted Emperor Cheng'an: "The matter of the Kong family is over here, uncle, what do you think?" ”
Emperor Cheng'an: "Yes." ”
Qin Zhanying handed the finished dishes to Qiu Yu: "Then let's talk about business?" I also have thoughts about Lao Shaan. ”
As soon as the war was mentioned, the generals became energetic, and everyone followed the prince one after another.
Qiu Yu hugged the dishes and chopsticks, thought for a moment, first went to wash the tableware for the prince, washed and disinfected the liquor with a high number of heights, wiped it clean and wrapped it, and then asked his subordinates to order soldiers and horses, and said to Kong Youjie: "Mr. Kong, there is a sentence below, I advise you to listen." ”
Kong Youjiemu looked at Qiu Yu in a daze, and saw Qiu Yu said: "When the injury is serious, it is necessary to cut off the rotten flesh in order to give the wound a chance to heal." ”
Seeing Kong Youjie's face, Qiu Yu knew that this matter was endless.
Alas, Brother Ying is too hard-tempered and has a poisonous mouth, and it is estimated that he is angry with the number of yeoman farmers in Shanludao.
Qiu Yu remembered that Qin Zhanying's practice in the history books was a reinterpretation of the Confucian classics, because Brother Ying himself had read these books, and he had always recognized the good parts of the books, and until now he did not say that he would beat Confucianism to death.
From beginning to end, Qin Zhanying just asked the Kong family not to continue to do evil, and he didn't even ask the Kong family to pick up the backbone again from today.
He really, Qiu Yu cried to death!
Qiu Yu and Kong Youjie explained the true intentions of the prince, hoping that the old man would not die.
Back at the camp, Qin Zhanying was saying that he had brought a new amount of food, and the atmosphere in the tent was very good.
In this world, there has always been only a pot to cook rice, and there is no one to reason with an empty stomach, Qin Zhanying has a violent temper, but everyone is convinced that he is here, following Brother Ying, everyone is not afraid of being hungry.
Qin Zhanying: "The Kong clan has more than 10,000 people, and there are private soldiers, and now there is no difference between Shanludao and the country within a country, and they grovel to the Meng people, but they may not be able to the Han people, so we must prevent them from turning back and stabbing the knife." ”
Emperor Cheng'an advised: "Zhan Ying, don't think too badly of them. ”
Qin Zhanying: "Uncle means to gamble on their character?" ”
Emperor Cheng'an: "Uncle means that even if they want to stab back, the scene can't be chaotic and can be suppressed." ”
The uncle was reasonable, Qin Zhanying thought for a moment and asked a question: "What about the common people who were used as knives when they stabbed them?" Do you want the people's will here? Will you do spring ploughing next year? ”
Emperor Cheng'an: "Well, this is a difficult problem, we can't let the people of Shanludao leave us because of a Confucian family, and we can't continue to let them stay in Shanludao in the future, Zhan Ying, according to the uncle's wishes, simply move them away." ”
The tent was quiet, Emperor Cheng'an looked left and right, and was worried in his heart, did he say something wrong?
Qin Zhanying saluted slowly: "Uncle's plan is exquisite, my nephew admires it!" ”
It was the first time that the crown prince praised the emperor's idea so vigorously, and a group of generals in the tent were also veterans for many years, and they immediately reacted, expressing their admiration for the emperor one after another, and praising this method of moving people to the heavens and the earth.
Emperor Cheng'an was embarrassed.
Qiu Yu sneaked in and tried to hold back a smile.
Then Qin Zhanying said: "Let Qiu Yu bring someone over there on the old Shaanxi Road, uncle, you can take the Kong family back to the capital later, and the Shanlu Road side will be handed over to me." ”
Qiu Yu was taken aback: "I'll go to Lao Shaanxi Road?" ”
Qin Zhanying turned around and pointed at him: "Yes, the court has decided, so I'll let you go." ”
At this moment, the word imperial court specifically refers to "Qin Zhanying's Yiyantang".
Qiu Yu didn't have the power to resist at all, so Qin Zhanying used the imperial power to set his way for next year.
When the meeting ended, everyone went back to their homes, Qiu Yu walked out of the tent with her head down, and felt that the corners of her clothes were being pulled.
"Let's go?" :,m..,.
