Wanli Youming

Chapter 472

Chapter 472

In the pre-Qin classics, the original meaning of junzi really refers to the son of the king.

Therefore, what Hai Rui said was correct.

It's just that Hai Rui's words have the correct meaning that the scholar-officials should suffer the most grievances, which is similar to Zhang Juzheng's words of "I am willing to be a straw mat for the world to sleep on."

Although Hai Rui's idea is to hope that the scholars and bureaucrats in the world will be selfless and willing to make the greatest sacrifice for the community and the common people.

But it is undoubtedly difficult for scholars to accept and practice this concept.

So Shu Hua had no choice but to say anxiously: "The death of my minister is not a pity! But your Majesty, don't believe Otsuka's pedantic words. If the people don't settle down first, it will only make the country unsafe!"

"His Majesty!"

"The sage said: 'A gentleman never ends up violating benevolence. If he makes a mistake, he will do it. If he makes mistakes, he will do it." also!"

Shen Li also started talking at this time, and said: "Because a gentleman is the son of a king, he is like a son of a family, the common people are children, the emperor and the empress are parents, so there is no reason to be disrespectful and wronged parents, how can there be inhumanity and wronged?" The reason for children?"

Shu Hua's eyes were like fire, looking at Hai Rui and Shen Li, who he considered very hateful and pedantic, he also said for a while:

"Your Majesty, they are the cunning and disarmed villains who deceived you, they should be punished!"

Zhu Yijun didn't intend to reconcile at this time.

Because the dispute over ideas has been impossible to reconcile since ancient times.

Even many times, some people give him great benefits, so that he is unwilling to betray his own ideas.

Therefore, Zhu Yijun only looked at Shen Shixing at this moment: "Yuanfu, you are my master, what can you teach me?"

"Your Majesty has been in charge of the government, and his achievements surpass Yao and Shun. His sages are incomparable, and his ministers have nothing to teach. Your Majesty only needs to follow his inner opinions!"

"The way your majesty believes in is the way of heaven, otherwise, your majesty is not the son of heaven and has no destiny."

As soon as Shen Shixing said this, some ministers couldn't help but secretly scolded "flattery", and some ministers couldn't help secretly sighing "incisive."

Those who talk about flattery naturally feel that Shen Shixing is obviously flattering the imperial power, assigning the right to interpret the laws of heaven to the emperor, deliberately letting the emperor rule alone, and doing his own way, which is very irresponsible to the world.

Those who talk about incisiveness feel that what Shen Shixing said is indeed reasonable. Since the Son of Heaven exists, there is an objective reason for his existence. He should be both a secular leader and a spiritual leader. An emperor?A secular emperor, an ideological emperor.

"It makes sense."

Zhu Yijun nodded himself, and suddenly looked at Hai Rui and Shu Hua seriously: "What both of you said is unrealistic, and it's all absurd!"

Both Hai Rui and Shu Hua had shocked expressions on their faces.

"Haiqing's words are wishful thinking. How many people in the world are able to eliminate all human desires and are only willing to wrong themselves? If I ask the scholars according to what you said, I am afraid that the scholars will be hypocrites!"

At this moment, Zhu Yijun looked at Hai Rui first, and expressed his opinion.

Then, Zhu Yijun looked at Shu Hua again: "And what Shu Hua said, he regarded himself as a scholar too much. The Song Dynasty treated scholars very well. Why are they still dead?"

Shu Hua bowed his head silently.

"How can An Shi be more important than An Shi?"

"Can scholars represent the common people in the world?"

"Since ancient times, I only know that there are people who are not kind to the common people and the country is subjugated. I have never heard of people who are not kind to the scholars and the country is subjugated."

Zhu Yijun spoke again.

Shu Hua opened his mouth to argue, but at the moment he didn't know what to say, he just looked around, hoping that other ministers would stand up.

But the courtiers in court turned a deaf ear at this time.

Affected by Shen Shixing's previous words, they either admitted that it is better for the emperor to interpret the teaching of saints at present, or they dared not speak more because of the power formed by the alliance between the emperor and the chief assistant.

What's more, Zhu Yijun expressed his disapproval of Hai Rui's point of view, which also made the courtiers feel that there was no need to compete with the emperor for the right to interpret the teaching of saints at this time.

otherwise.

No one can say for sure whether the Son of Heaven will simply turn to support people like Hai Rui and Shen Li, put higher demands on the scholar-bureaucrats, and make the scholar-bureaucrats truly the servants of the people of the world.

At this time, Zhu Yijun continued: "Of course, as Shen Qing said, a scholar is a gentleman, and I should treat him with kindness and will not be unkind, otherwise I am afraid that you will vent the resentment generated here on the common people. ;The previous several reforms have proved that once you have been wronged by the new policy of the imperial court, many of you do like to transfer this grievance to the common people. Therefore, if I want to comfort the common people, I have to consider you feel."

"but!"

"It cannot be said that being kind to you is more important than being kind to the common people! The people who are most likely to rebel in history are the common people. I treat you kindly for the sake of the common people, so you, Shu Hua, intentionally misled me and told me to treat you well even if I wronged the common people. Abandoning the safety of the country and not caring about it, you only think that you Shilin can be a master!"

"Although Hai and Shen Erqing's arguments are unrealistic, they are not for themselves, but for the country and the people. In essence, they also put the safety of the common people first. Therefore, although I do not support it, I do not oppose it, and I will not kill them. Allow them to demand this of themselves; however, what you Shuhua said was for your own selfishness."

Zhu Yijun pointed at Shu Hua as he spoke, and said sharply, "His heart can't be called destructive!"

When Zhu Yijun said this, he said: "Pass down the decree, take away the post of minister of the Ministry of Punishment of Shuhua, and give him the death penalty. If his learning is not correct, his family, teachers and students will be held accountable. Three generations of his family will not be allowed to take the imperial examination, and his teachers will not be allowed to take the imperial examination for three generations. Three generations are not allowed to take the imperial examination, and all those who have official positions and fame are turned into ordinary people. They should study again. After a year, the local officials will examine the thoughts of their children's studies. If they are still not correct, they will be exiled for three thousand miles. Righteousness, that can only allow him to receive a realistic education!"

"Follow the decree!"

Shen Shixing replied at this time.

Shu Hua collapsed on the ground without saying anything.

Only after a while did he cast a cold glance at Shen Shixing: "Gong is even worse than Hai Gangfeng!"

But Shen Shixing didn't say anything, just stood there as if raising his eyebrows and resting his mind.

After Shu Hua said that, he took off the beam crown on his head, and kowtowed to Zhu Yijun: "The criminal thanked Your Majesty for not cutting or tearing!"

Zhu Yijun didn't say a word, but only looked at Jiang Zhongxiao: "Jiang Zhongxiao utters falsehoods about the way of heaven, plots wrongdoing, and will also be punished with death!"

Jiang Zhongxiao gritted his teeth at this moment and said: "Your Majesty bestowed death on me, I dare not complain, but I refuse to obey!"

"Why are you dissatisfied?"

Zhu Yijun asked.

Jiang Zhongxiao said: "The one who refuses to obey is that your majesty knows that Li Zhe was instigated by Shen Shixing to instigate Zhang Butang to embezzle Zhaoan's silver privately without asking, but he only hates the minister for lying about the way of heaven!"

"Zhang Yue only said that Yuanfu had this suspicion in Zhang Zou, but there is no evidence."

Zhu Yijun replied.

Jiang Zhongxiao said: "Li Zhe may have evidence. Why don't His Majesty try it himself and get rid of his doubts? Now he doesn't even ask. It is obvious that he is suspected of covering up. How can he convince the world?!"

Zhu Yijun smiled slightly: "I will follow you!"

As he spoke, Zhu Yijun said, "Bring it to Li Zhe!"

Not long after, Li Zhe was escorted to the hall.

Because Zhang Yue's bulletin has proved that Li Zhe is suspected of embezzling recruitment funds, Zhu Yijun has already ordered him to be sentenced to prison.

Therefore, Li Zhe was escorted here by Jin Yiwei from the Imperial Prison.

When Li Zhe arrived at the imperial court, Zhu Yijun asked, "Are you really instructed by Yuan Fu to ask Governor Zhang Yue to collude with the rich gentry to embezzle Zhao'an silver privately and slaughter the rogues who were recruited?"

Li Zhe said, "Yes! If it wasn't Yuan Fu's intention, how would I dare to do it!"

The ministers were in an uproar and looked at Shen Shixing one after another.
