Chapter 16 Discord among the six relatives, there is filial piety
In fact, it doesn't matter whether you study Confucian classics or not. As a prince, you don't need to take the imperial examination, so what's the point of studying it?
What's more, the Confucian classics of the Ming Dynasty were deleted by Lao Zhu. All comments that were not conducive to the supremacy of imperial power were deleted. The statues of Yasheng were even moved out of the Confucian Temple. One can imagine whether this knowledge is useful to princes and emperors. ?
Of course, it must be useful, otherwise Lao Zhu would not regard Lao Fuzi's commentaries as official orthodoxy, and just let the common people learn from it. If the emperor regards it as a treasure for self-cultivation, then it is really over.
In Lao Zhu’s view, the Confucian ideals of “the people are the most important, the country is the second most important thing, and the ruler is despised”, and the Confucian ideal of “the ruler and the scholar-bureaucrats rule the world together”, do not seem to be what Confucianism advocates nowadays. This is a treasonous statement. Whoever wants to rule the world with him will not die a miserable death?
How did Li Shanchang, the first hero of the founding of the People's Republic of China, die? How did Hu Weiyong, the prime minister of the first generation, die? How did Lan Yu, the god of war, die? Their deaths were not because Lao Zhu was unjust, but because in Lao Zhu's view, these three people had crossed the line. , they began to express their thoughts relying on their high achievements. How could a unified centralized government tolerate two voices? If there are two voices, then who has the final say in this country?
Therefore, they were all indifferent. By the way, their younger brothers were also indifferent.
The people in charge of the rites supervisor had all left. Sun Xian couldn't stay any longer. He liked to go out to the palace to play when he had nothing to do. Learning was never his strong point, so Chen Ju could only take charge of Zhu Changluo's studies.
Chen Ju looked at Zhu Changluo who was sitting behind the desk and asked, "Your Highness, how are you doing with your study of hundreds of schools of thought in the pre-Qin period?"
Zhu Changluo said: "The knowledge of Laozi and Zhuangzhuang is profound and profound, and the way of saints is lofty and long. Whenever Changluo reads Laozi's words: 'When wisdom comes out, there will be great hypocrisy; when relatives are in discord, there will be filial piety; when the country is confused, there will be loyal ministers.' Chang Luo was always thinking about how wise I was, who actually summed up the vicissitudes of the world two thousand years ago. Because of the chaos of Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao, his father is now thinking very hard about how to revive the Ming Dynasty, but the censor The officials of the science and education always seek to steal the limelight by attacking dissidents. As far as the country is concerned, they regard themselves as loyal and good, but they seem to be big hypocrites, and nothing they do satisfies their father. There are more than one person in the Qianqing Palace. During the month, Chang Luo also heard and saw that his father was facing a mountain of remonstrances and memorials to impeach important ministers. His father was tired and tired of dealing with it, but the officials still went their own way. Chang Luo felt sorry for his father. Father If they want to do something, they always blame. Sometimes Chang Luo wonders whether his father or the officials are the ones who make the decision in this world. If it weren’t for the loyal father-in-laws in the ceremonial department to solve problems for his father, it would be even more difficult for him now. Already."
There is nothing Zhu Changluo can do to hack Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao. Now hacking them is the political correctness of the Wanli Dynasty. If anyone complains about Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao at this time, this person is either an idiot or mentally retarded. He will definitely be punished by the emperor, eunuchs and the entire civil servant group. Group attack.
Moreover, in one of Zhu Changluo's passages, he compared Yan Guan to a hypocrite, himself to filial piety, and the Supervisor of Ceremonies to a loyal minister. How could this make Chen Ju unhappy?
Chen Ju didn't expect that Zhu Changluo would talk in such a long way, and that he could understand so many truths just by reading Lao Zhuang's theory, which surprised Chen Ju.
Chen Ju was silent for a while and said, "What do you think of the Beijing inspection?"
Zhu Changluo didn't expect that Chen Ju would ask Zhu Changluo about the Beijing inspection, which was a bit surprising. In fact, Chen Ju didn't want to hear Zhu Changluo's opinion when he asked. He just wanted to train Zhu Changluo's political ability through some current affairs. Because during the war
After being in contact with Zhu Changluo for such a long time, Chen Ju has determined that Zhu Changluo is a precocious child. Although he often pretends to be pitiful in front of Emperor Wanli, in front of Chen Ju, an old ginger, Zhu Changluo's performance is still tender.
Point. That’s why Chen Ju asked Zhu Changluo this way, hoping that Zhu Changluo would learn some skills in controlling people.
Zhu Changluo said: "Chang Luo didn't know much about the Beijing inspection. He only knew that it was initiated by the cabinet and the Ministry of Personnel. It started from Emperor Taizu Gao and from Emperor Xiaozong (Hongzhi), it happened every six years and was divided into four
The "Eight Methods" are the system used to evaluate officials in the capital."
Chen Ju said: "Yes, it is true. What do you think of this year's Beijing inspection?"
Chen Ju still asked, he wanted to know what kind of answer Zhu Changluo would give.
Zhu Changluo looked into Chen Ju's eyes. He weighed the pros and cons, and then said slowly: "Jing Cha is not very good."
This answer was beyond Chen Ju's expectation. He never expected that Zhu Changluo would question the Jingcha. Chen Ju couldn't help but take it seriously.
Chen Ju said: "Your Highness, please explain in detail why the Beijing inspection is inappropriate."
Zhu Changluo said: "The purpose of the Beijing inspection is for the court to use it as a criterion to reward the good and punish the bad, so that officials at all levels can fulfill their duties and contribute to the long-term stability of the court. However, precisely because the Beijing inspection involves the rewards and punishments of officials, the result will be favoritism.
Fraudulent enterprises and private parties and other phenomena. Although the court seems to be calm now, in fact party disputes have always existed, and this phenomenon is very obvious. Therefore, at this stage, it is difficult for the Beijing Police to truly fulfill its due role. Moreover, officials often have a reputation for being lenient.
, every time the Beijing Inspectorate is dismissed, only a few people are dismissed, and the stories are false, and the rest are graceful, and those who are impeached are inevitably unjust. Therefore, the Beijing Inspectorate is not very good, and it can easily become a tool for the party to fight against dissidents."
Chen Ju took a breath after hearing this. He really didn't expect that these words were said by a five-year-old baby! Then Chen Ju looked at Zhu Changluo with even more eager and respectful eyes. He thought that Zhu Changluo could have such knowledge.
It must have been the blessing of the ancestors, who wanted to use Zhu Changluo's hands to revive the Ming Dynasty.
Chen Ju stabilized his emotions. He looked around nervously and found that no one was eavesdropping. Chen Ju couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. Chen Ju said: "Your Highness, please don't say these words again. Otherwise, you will be in trouble."
It’s not good for you.”
Zhu Changluo bowed to Chen Ju and said, "Thank you, father-in-law, for reminding me. It's Chang Luo and Meng Lang. I don't know how high the sky is, and I'm talking nonsense."
Chen Ju felt a lot relieved when he saw that Zhu Changluo understood Zangfeng so well. He was really afraid that what Zhu Changluo had just said would spread. If it did spread, Zhu Changluo might become a thorn in the side of the civil servants who have been "supporting" him.
, then there will be no need to fight over the country’s foundation, and the civil servants will definitely turn against each other.
However, Chen Ju still couldn't help but want to ask, "Your Highness, how can we return Jingcha to its original character at this time?"
Zhu Changluo said: "Supervision."
Chen Ju sighed: "If supervision fails, if the factory guards are involved, it will arouse the opposition of the entire court. They will all remonstrate with the emperor until they give up. This is not conducive to the stability of the court."
Zhu Changluo said: "We don't need to involve the factory guards, we can just use their own strength. The Beijing inspection has always been the responsibility of the cabinet-led officials. What if we let the Inspectorate also get involved?"
Chen Ju's eyes lit up, "Wonderful! The Inspectorate has the responsibility of impeaching hundreds of officials, and letting them participate in the inspection of Beijing. This group of noble officials must be very enthusiastic about it. Whoever stops them, they will definitely
Impeach anyone, and no one can compare with them. I will advise the emperor and ask the emperor to order the Supervisory Council to participate in the inspection of the capital."
Zhu Changluo smiled. This is the result he wants. Now there will be excitement. The more lively they are, the safer I will be. A political idiot like Emperor Wanli will definitely end up with nothing but chicken feathers. It won't have any impact, but I can
