Extra: Meow meow meow
This damn world doesn't give people a way to live at all!
At the beginning, Zhu Yuanzhang still wanted to go through the system, slowly climb up, and finally reform the entire Ming Dynasty, but now it seems that the road of the system is impassable, since this is the case, it can only be reversed!
But now it is only the spring of the first year of Chongzhen, and even the peasant uprising in Shaanxi has not yet begun, and Huang Taiji has not entered the city of Beijing.
Even if Daming's strength has declined, even if Daming is just a paper tiger that looks very powerful, but the paper tiger is also a tiger, and when it falls on Zhu Yuanzhang at this moment, it is like a mountain and a sea, and it is invincible.
So he thought about it, so he didn't directly raise an army to rebel, but killed Liangshan and fell into the grass!
But before falling into the grass, Zhu Yuanzhang decided to do a big thing!
After all, this kind of thing is not good to say. Moreover, after the grass falls, what do people eat, what they drink, and what do they use? All of this has to be considered clearly, and the most important thing is money, food, and weapons.
The main thing is food and weapons, with these two things can be regarded as a promising future, so you have to knock a hard stroke before falling into the grass!
The next day, the new civil lord of the imperial court disappeared.
It has only been a month since the eldest lord came to Datong, and half of the time in this month is not in the mansion, but in some multi-person sports venues.
So Zhu Yuanzhang didn't take much effort to kidnap him, and many preparations were useless. Of course, this is also because today's Ming Dynasty still rules the world, so many people don't have this string in their minds, and the way they think about problems is still the same as in the era of peace.
What do you see?
What are you doing?
In peacetime, this kind of bar spirit is at most beaten up. But if it is placed in troubled times, how many people dare to do this? Isn't that not taking their own net worth and life seriously?
In peacetime, the official servants of the imperial court were dressed in a layer of official skin, and one person dared to scrape a village or even a township.
In times of peace, we rely on righteousness, people's hearts, and reason, while in war years we rely on strength.
Comparing the strength of the two sides, Zhu Yuanzhang has himself and a few veterans who are not afraid of death, but here is the governor, there are only himself and a few errands.
These people are proficient in eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, all kinds of unspoken rules, and the rules of collecting money and doing things are extremely proficient, but if you let them compare with veterans and cut people, then you will look up to them too much.
In peacetime, the governor never thought that anyone would dare to directly kidnap the imperial court officials!
So the kidnapping was very successful, and the governor fell directly into the hands of Zhu Yuanzhang, and the errands began to operate with ransom letters.
The food is too heavy, and there are too few people, so there must be no way to ask for food directly, so there is no food in this ransom.
Gold and silver are indispensable, but silver is still too heavy, tens of thousands of taels of silver weigh thousands of catties, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver weigh tens of thousands of catties.
Tens of thousands of catties of silver, Zhu Yuanzhang has a total of less than 100 people, even if he carries this silver, there is no place to run.
So one of the ransoms is 10,000 taels of gold, and in addition, it is armor, which must be high-grade armor, and even at the same time as the kidnapping, Zhu Yuanzhang is still recruiting.
There are so few people that it can't be done with just a few dozen people.
If you want to successfully escape after the kidnapping, and have the strength to counterattack the imperial court officials, you must at least have hundreds of good men, but fortunately, the most important thing here in Datong is a good man with ability.
As long as there is money and food, hundreds of heroes can be recruited.
The next day, the entire high-level of Datong officialdom was shocked!
The governor sent by the imperial court was kidnapped!
"Anti-thief, this is the real anti-thief!"
"Yes, there is not the slightest majesty of the court in the eyes of the anti-thieves, such anti-thieves are the most terrifying, because they really dare to tear up the ticket!"
What can I do?
If the governor is really torn up, then the entire Datong military town, civil officials and military generals up and down, don't think about a good end.
Civil officials may be able to take a little bit and rely on their connections to become officials in other places, but are there any other ways for local generals to be dismissed?
Report to the imperial court?
No, no, no, whoever dares to report to the court is everyone's enemy!
It seems that this thief is also a knowledgeable person, a professional, and saves face for everyone, so he is quite good at getting things done......
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't react on the first day, and on the second day, he understood the twists and turns in these officialdoms, and immediately had a new understanding of the degree of decay in the Ming court.
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was very bold, directly changed his robbery plan, and he even openly returned to the city with the governor for a time, that is, he and the governor held hands, which looked very strange.
In the eyes of strangers, it is normal. The governor is the legendary Jinshi master, their taste is different from ordinary people, ordinary people like girls, and they like rabbits.
It's just that the rabbit master in front of him is inevitably too rough, just a rough man, I really don't know what the governor likes about him!
This dramatic robbery lasted for three months.
In March, more than 2,000 Datong men took refuge in Zhu Yuanzhang under the temptation of food and silver salary, but Zhu Yuanzhang finally only needed more than 300 heroes who could ride horses. Coupled with the original dozens of backbones, they can also be completely digested.
The armor and weapons are complete, and the patience of the high-level people for Zhu Yuanzhang is getting more and more extreme, and there is no fool who can be a high-level person.
If at the beginning, in their eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang was just a bold anti-thief, but to this day, who still doesn't know that this guy is a super anti-thief like Chen Youliang and Zhang Shicheng!
If this continues, maybe he will rebel directly, and at that time, everyone will still die? Therefore, before the limit of patience of the high-level came to an end, Zhu Yuanzhang released the governor and left Datong with more than 400 heroes and went directly into the grassland.
The dignified and budding founding emperor has now had to fall into the grass and make people, nothing more than this.
Da-da-da-da
The sound of horses' hooves is not a return, but a passerby!
After seeing Zhu Yuanzhang enter the grassland, the general soldiers of Datong Town were also a little helpless, he was distressed, it was 30,000 taels of gold, and it was gone!
In his opinion, it is not incomprehensible that Zhu Yuanzhang ran into the grassland in order to avoid the next blow of the imperial court, but once he entered the grassland, it was not the imperial court that had the final say.
Who knows whose treasure the 30,000 taels of gold on Zhu Yuanzhang will become?
On the day Zhu Yuanzhang left, a news spread throughout the grassland, and there was a guy named Zhu Laosan, who was carrying 30,000 taels of gold......
"Tsk, it's worthy of Zhu Yuanzhang, even if he can't make steel and iron, and he doesn't have a golden finger, he can still get ahead. The first pot of gold turned out to be the robbery governor, the robbery governor in peacetime, tsk, did the black bean see it, this is the real hero!"
Black Bean: Meow!
Xiao Tang snapped her fingers, and an enchantment appeared, and then she carefully took out the communication talisman, and the idea entered it, and she came to a virtual reality space in an instant.
Liang Xiaocheng hugged the black bean in his arms and suddenly shouted: "Holy Flame Zhaozhao!"
"The flame shines!" said a guy with an orange cat in his arms, but he was a man.
"All my disciples!"
"Meow meow meow!"
"It's late, it's late, so I'll focus on big oranges?"
"What's our slogan?"
"Oranges in the sky!"
"Your Cool Orange Empress is here!"
"Uh-huh, the goddess (scripture) is here. ”
A long, long time ago, the dream of the students was to serve the country, to join the army, or to join the expeditionary division, but now the dreams of the students are more.
Some want to become great scientists with their own labs, some want to become a true immortal who has long been seen, and some want to become the master of the world.
And Liang Xiaotang's dream is to establish a big orange dynasty and become the queen of ten thousand oranges, and these classmates in front of him are the first batch of Liang Xiaotang's team, they are the future Wan Tang Menghou, Wan Tang Immortal, Wan Tang Wan Tang Wenyuan Pavilion University Scholar, Wan Tang Hua Gaidian University Scholar.
It's just that it seems that their fighting spirit is not very high, unlike Liang Xiaotang, who is full of confidence in the future, and more like they are playing with Liang Xiaotang.
"Menghou, Immortal, Wenyuan Pavilion Scholar, Huagai Hall Scholar, how are you observing, have you gained anything?" Liang Xiaotang suddenly asked.
"Well, the traverser observed by Ben Hou here is not simple, and I don't know if it was made by that senior, this traverser may have been a master of Chinese studies before the crossing, or a figure like a great Confucian, of course, it may also be a philosopher and thinker. ”
The one who spoke was Wan Tang Menghou, who was holding a white little milk cat in his hand, which was indeed a little milk cat when it first arrived in his hands, but now it has become a fat milk cat.
"Oh, what did he do?"
"This guy has been studying hard since he came over, and although it has only been half a year, he has already passed the examination and is preparing for the Jinshi examination. With his level, there is no problem in being admitted to the Jinshi. ”
But if that's the case, it's not worth my admiration, and he also wrote a book in private, which has a lot of ideas on Confucian reform, and it can be seen that he intends to reform Confucianism. ”
Confucianism has shortcomings, which not only the emperor Laozi knew, but also the vast majority of scholars.
Therefore, since the birth of Confucianism, there have been thousands of scholars who have tried in vain to transform Confucianism. Those scholars who can effectively change the Confucian worldview, or effectively supplement the Confucian worldview, are called Great Confucians.
It is not that you can call yourself a great Confucian if you pass the Jinshi examination and become a member of the Six Books or the Cabinet Elder, but you must transform, supplement, and upgrade the Confucian worldview in order to become a Great Confucian.
For example, Zhu Xi, although many people say how bad science is, how many shortcomings there are, and many people say that Zhu Xi's character is not good, but these are not directly related to Zhu Xi becoming a recognized Confucian when he was alive.
Another example is Wang Yangming, he can become a recognized Confucianism in the world, not because he won the battle and pacified the rebellion of King Ning, but because he proposed the study of mind, which effectively made up for the world view of Confucianism.
"Oh, then why did he become a great Confucian? It is not easy to be recognized by all the scholars in the world. Besides, it's the first year of Chongzhen, not to be an official, not to train soldiers, but to reform Confucianism, shouldn't it be the old master Xun who did it?"
"yes, that's a bit out of place. Confucianism is good to say, the conflict between Confucianism and the empire is too strong, and it is understandable that Master Xun wants to reform Confucianism, but I don't think he can succeed. ”
"Not necessarily, you all know the posture of Confucianism, and the concept of the empire can be described as incompatible, historical records record that when Confucianism first appeared in the eyes of the empire, the old master Xun personally held the sword and took his disciples to cut people. ”
"That time, Old Master Xun, who has always been very kind, directly killed Red Eyes and killed hundreds of so-called famous Confucians, which is really the true ...... of Old Master Confucius."
"Hehe, isn't it, Old Master Kong immediately killed Shao Zhengmao after becoming an official, and his old man took the lead in front, and other Confucian students are not allowed to do the same?"
Nowadays, the position of Confucianism in the empire is really a bit embarrassing, and it is difficult for anyone who has read other world history books to have much good impression of Confucianism.
Although Confucian people can find many reasons, the Northern Song Dynasty fell because the Jin Dynasty was too capable to fight, and it was the emperor Lao Tzu at that time who was wasted.
The fall of the Southern Song Dynasty was due to the mediocrity of the Son of Heaven at that time, the ministers seized power, and Mongolia was too capable of fighting.
The fall of the Ming Dynasty was due to the mediocrity of the Son of Heaven (crossed out, the civil officials have not been shameless to the point of saying that Chongzhen is mediocre), the ministers have power, and the Manchus are too capable of fighting.
The demise of the Southern Ming Dynasty was due to the mediocrity of the Son of Heaven, the power of the ministers, and the ability of the Manchu Qing to fight.
After reading the history books, you will find that the reasons found by the Confucian scholars are always exactly the same, nothing more than the mediocrity of the Son of Heaven, the power of the ministers, the enemy is too strong, and as for the sins of the Confucian students themselves, they never say anything.
Even if the Confucian scholars have always been the rulers of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Southern Song Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty, and the Southern Ming Dynasty, they are right, the wrong is the world, and the wrong is the world!
At least Liang Xiaocheng and his classmates don't have much affection for such Confucianism.
In this case, what can Old Master Xun do?
Of course, in his capacity as the ancestor of Confucianism, he publicly declared that Confucianism is not Confucianism, Confucianism is good, and Confucianism is illegal......
"Ahem, this guy is not simple. He first proposed that the ultimate goal pursued by Confucianism is the Great Dao, which is infinite and difficult to directly attain. Therefore, he put forward the concept of the trail, the avenue is composed of countless trails, and it is extremely difficult to pursue the avenue directly, so he pursues the trail first, and finally converges from the trail to form the avenue. ”
"This avenue is the ultimate result of the three views of Confucianism, except for the dead Confucius old master, no Confucian student dares to say that he has sought the avenue. And this trail is defined by him as everything in life, Dongpo meat is a trail, settling accounts is a trail, fighting a war is a trail, farming is a trail, invention and creation is a trail......"
In addition, he proposed the inductive and deductive methods. Three inductive and deductive syllogisms were written by him, but they have not yet been issued. ”
After he sends out the inductive interpretation method, the worldview of Confucianism will be greatly completed, and he will become a great Confucian. Although many of these readers are stupid, they can still see the quality of the inductive romance method. ”
"But after becoming a great Confucian, I don't know what he will do. ”
