Kong Yi was filled with anger. They kept a clean house and kept their own rules...but just because of a rumor, they became the chief culprits in bringing trouble to the world.
Why change dynasties, rise and fall of the world... If there really was some Nishan Hongru who would protect them, how could they cross the river in embarrassment and move to Quzhou?
After all, no one wants to be suspected of being a rebel leader.
What's more, the fate of Nankong has been tied to the Ming Dynasty. To uphold the founding of the Ming Dynasty can also show that their choice of Nankong is correct. After all the hardships, the clouds will clear and the moon will shine.
As for whether some people would say that Beizong abandoned the bright and turned to the dark side, that was beyond his control.
Kong Yi's agreement made Xu Jingchang's words more convincing.
Officials in the court, no matter what, must admit that in order to worship Confucius, a special Duke Yan was created, and Qufu was almost handed over to the Confucius family, allowing them to annex the land and fish and meat villages.
No one cares about the illegal things he does.
This is the status of the descendants of saints.
I would like to ask all the nobles in the dynasty, who is so lucky?
It's just that his theory is a perfect excuse for civil servants.
Moreover, since the Song Dynasty, the Zheng family has produced numerous talents and has continuously entered the officialdom... The Zheng family taught their descendants with filial piety and righteousness, and also compiled the "Zheng Family Code", which clarified the rules for how to run a family, educate children, cultivate one's morality, and conduct affairs.
"Also, Emperor Taizu wrote a letter of credence to the Japanese state: God likes to beget evil but is not kind to those who are merciful. Since the Zhao and Song Dynasties, our country has lost control, and the northern barbarians have invaded and occupied it. They have spread Hu customs and poisoned the middle land, and the Chinese style has not competed with others.
If you have a lot of intentions, who wouldn’t be angry?”
Now that you stand up, no one dares to underestimate you.
Really awesome!
The implication is, Xu Jingchang, you little brat, don’t get involved.
Therefore, we did not take away your father's world, and we are not rebellious ministers and traitors.
When things got to this point, Xu Jingchang almost achieved a complete victory, and Zhu Di was also very satisfied.
Xu Jingchang looked at Zheng Yi with a smile, "I am young, have little education, and do not know much. I have only one loyalty to Emperor Taizu, and I would never dare to disobey him... If there is anything wrong, please make it clear."
Song Li, the Minister of Rites, who was supposed to have the most say on the issue of sacrifices, had been defeated by Xu Jingchang many times and no longer dared to fight.
Emperor Taizu has already concluded how the Ming Dynasty was founded. If you dare to talk nonsense and deceive people, be careful and we will beat you to death, you little treacherous official!
good!
Very energetic!
Then another trouble arose... After recognizing the legitimacy of the Yuan Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang raised troops to rebel against the Yuan Dynasty, which was considered a rebellion.
Even though Zheng Yi is usually a quiet person, he has a transcendent status because of his family's reputation and the favor of Emperor Taizu.
The two of them were worried and couldn't be optimistic at all.
This person is Zheng Yi, the minister of Honglu Temple.
Because if you don't recognize the Yuan Dynasty, you have to recognize the Song Dynasty, but the Song Dynasty was used by Liu Futong and his group.
Xu Jingchang had a smile on his face, but he was not angry. On the contrary, he said calmly: "Emperor Taizu did say this, but I also remember that Emperor Taizu also said in his edict to Zhongyuan that he would expel the barbarians and restore China. This is another example.
What’s the explanation? Did Emperor Taizu contradict himself?”
He seems to have little presence in the court, but his family is extraordinary.
But Zheng Yi's family was "the first family in Jiangnan" written by Zhu Yuanzhang.
It seems like saying this again, how about it, you have learned a lot, right?
Xu Jingchang smiled calmly, "I also read a little bit about the old events of the Taizu Dynasty... You talked about the orthodoxy of the Yuan Dynasty. Of course, there is such a thing. But I also remember that Emperor Taizu's letter of credence to Goryeo said:
Yuan is not of my kind. He has been in China for more than a hundred years. Heaven is disgusted with his cowardice and wants to kill him... I will drive out Lord Hu from the north, purge China, and restore China's old territory. Isn't this what Emperor Taizu said?
?”
Zhu Di gave Kong Yi the first family of loyalty and filial piety, but then took it back.
Zheng Yi said with a smile: "It is destiny for us to establish the Ming Dynasty, and it is natural to inherit the Yuan Dynasty. What Duke Ding said is actually inconsistent with the words of Emperor Taizu, and I have to remind Duke Ding to avoid violating the ancestral system.
Big mistake."
Kill this bastard!
Jian Yi and Xia Yuanji also stared at Zheng Yi with wide eyes... Although his tone was polite, when he mentioned Zhu Yuanzhang, this was a big killer.
Hearing Zheng Yi's words, many civil servants were cheered up!
That’s right, what a great Mr. Zheng!
Liu Futong and Han Lin'er are both dead, how to solve this matter?
Zheng Yi was still worried that Xu Jingchang didn't understand, so he explained considerately: "Ding Guogong, Emperor Taizu meant that the fortunes of the Song Dynasty were finally over, and a saint came out of the desert and became the lord of the world. It was also orthodox. Only a hundred years later, when the fortunes of the country declined, did it happen
The destiny of the Ming Dynasty belongs to the Ming Dynasty. Emperor Taizu raised the three-foot sword to quell the smoke and dust and unified the world, which is also to respect the destiny of the Ming Dynasty."
It has to be said that Lao Zhu worked hard for his own legal system.
Those who led the rebellion were those who took the lead in the rebellion, while those who led the rebellion were those like him who participated in the uprising halfway.
…
From now on, you guys will be able to straighten your back even more.
For example, the legal system of the Ming Dynasty, such as stabilizing the world and preventing those who are interested in continuing to rebel... Zhu Yuanzhang discussed it with Song Lian, Liu Ji and other civil servants.
And in order to prove his correctness, Lao Zhu also cited many examples.
What he said about Lao Zhu's attitude is really not nonsense... Zhu Yuanzhang did hate Dayuan in the early days of setting up the country.
Their faces are not pretty at all. If it works, that's fine. If it doesn't work, things will change tomorrow!
Zheng Yi first saluted Zhu Di, and then said: "Dingguo Gong is young and has great achievements. I admire him very much. You said that the Ming Dynasty came to expel the barbarians. This is quite reasonable... It's just that this theory is different from that of Emperor Taizu."
There are some discrepancies in the conclusion. In order to avoid violating the ancestral system, I have to speak boldly."
In addition, since the Yuan Dynasty orthodoxy is recognized, the expulsion of the Hulu cannot be overly publicized.
But as Lao Zhu became emperor, a lot of problems arose.
It seemed that the overall situation had been decided, but at this moment, a man came out from the crowd of civil servants.
Lao Zhu said: I was a commoner in Huaiyou, but a sudden attack by a violent army led me into it by mistake.
I can let you forget the past and I can still give you a hand.
Now that Xu Da has been raised to the same status as the Master, even if the Xu family cannot dominate one side, then the Kong family must be pulled down. This is only fair.
Lao Zhu also said: At that time, thieves were rife, and heroes fought to seize the provinces and counties. I had no choice but to raise troops... At that time, the world was no longer owned by the Yuan family... I took the world in the hands of the heroes, not in the hands of the Yuan family.
.
On the other hand, the civil servants' side was miserable and rainy, and everyone had different thoughts.
As for the cabinet, although they are all Hanlin scholars with profound knowledge, first of all, their qualifications are shallow, and secondly, after Xie Jin was appointed as the general envoy, he was already the de facto head of the cabinet. Even though he was suppressing him, no one stepped forward.
Finally, someone stood up to challenge Xu Jingchang.
Although Lao Zhu had good reasons to rebel against the Yuan Dynasty, what if someone imitated him?
Wouldn't that mean the world is in chaos?
So Zhu Yuanzhang and his subordinates thought hard and thought deeply, and came up with the idea of "the palace is prosperous and blessed."
Zheng Yi frowned, but still remained calm, "Ding Guogong, Emperor Taizu established the foundation, and had careful discussions with the Confucian ministers... The orthodoxies of the past dynasties all upheld the destiny of heaven and came into being. The Yuan Dynasty ruled China, and it was also the will of heaven.
How can a century-old dynasty be treated as if it does not exist? How can China be cut off from the thousands-year-old inheritance? Emperor Taizu thought deeply before writing it into the royal imperial edict. Everyone who is a little older knows this."
As if that was not enough, Lao Zhu racked his brains and divided the insurrectionists into two parts: those who "initiated the rebellion" and those who "provoked the palace."
He just couldn't bear the suffering of the people, so he raised troops to save the people.
The nobles were even more overjoyed. The old man Geng Bingwen burst into tears, and Xu Huizu was filled with emotion.
At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang did not have a time-traveling expert who could give him guidance... As a result, he could only exclude Han and Song Dynasties from orthodoxy, respect the Confucian view of destiny, and recognize the orthodoxy of the Yuan Dynasty.
Jian Yi and Xia Yuanji had known Zhu Di's thoughts for a long time. Although they were the leaders of hundreds of officials, they were unwilling to wade into troubled waters.
The general meaning is that Han Shantong, Liu Futong and others are the first to cause chaos, and we are the emperor.
All in all, you kid, be honest, can't you turn over this bright sky?
Among the noble team, there are also people who understand. The old monk Yao Guangxiao listened silently, with a half-smile on his face. He glanced sideways at Xu Jingchang... Boy, if you can't bear it, please hurry up and ask for help.
It is precisely because of this that he received Zhu Yuanzhang's approval.
And he came up with the conclusion of Taizu as soon as he came up!
In the end, after discussion and discussion, they still wanted to recognize the orthodoxy of the Yuan Dynasty.
These two people also vaguely knew what Zheng Yi said.
"Furthermore, Emperor Taizu gave a letter of credence to Champa: Our country has been occupied by the barbarians for hundreds of years, so the barbarians spread all over the country and destroyed the Yilun of our country."
Zheng Yi nodded, "Ding Guogong, Emperor Taizu once said: The Yuan Dynasty has ruled China for hundreds of years, and my parents and I, including your ministers, have all depended on it for their childbirth and support. How can we make such superficial remarks? He also said: I am the king of the Chinese people, and I have been the king of the Chinese people since the Song Dynasty.
It has ended. The emperor ordered the real person to go to the desert and enter China to become the lord of the world. His father, son and grandson have lived for more than a hundred years, and this fate has come to an end."
Emperor Taizu recognized the orthodoxy of the Yuan Dynasty. In this case, overthrowing the Yuan Dynasty would be like the rise and fall of the past dynasties... In other words, Xu Da and his group can only compete with Han Xin and Peng Yue, and they also want to compete with Confucius.
Bi, go ahead and dream!
Zheng Yi laughed and said: "Ding Guo Gong, what do you think?"
Chen Sheng and Wu Guang of the Qin Dynasty, Huangjin of the Han Dynasty, Yang Xuangan of the Sui Dynasty, Xiang Haiming of the Sui Dynasty, Xianzhi of the Tang Dynasty, and Wang Ze of the Song Dynasty were all those who made speeches and advocated chaos.
The fire is out. Why?
The way to cover the sky is easy to return. Anyone who initiates chaos will end up in a violent fight, causing more damage to things and lives than he can achieve. If the sky does not follow the leader of chaos, disaster will return to chaos, and blessings will be prosperous in the palace.
He did not intend to cause trouble, but had no choice but to get involved in the rebel army.
Xu Jingchang kept talking, with a calm smile on his face, "Zheng Honglu, do you think Emperor Taizu and these vassal states lied?"
It can be called a model of Confucianism advocating farming, reading and passing down the family line.
Zheng Yi suddenly changed his expression and said immediately: "Of course I didn't mean it this way. Duke Dingguo, you are just looking for chapters and excerpts to misinterpret the meaning of Emperor Taizu."
Obviously, this person is not calm anymore.
Xu Jingchang smiled instead, "Emperor Taizu said so much, why can you just come up with a sentence or two and explain it randomly to silence the world. Can't I dig carefully and understand the true intention of Emperor Taizu? Is it possible?
Are you saying that people like me are not qualified to speak, and that only a true Confucian scholar can speak for Taizu?"
Zhu Di, who was sitting on the dragon throne, suddenly opened his eyes wide... These Confucian officials not only wanted to explain Gang Chang, but also the emperor's words?
