Chapter 122 Night Party at the Prime Ministers Mansion (Part 2)

Zhang Bingbi does have some opinions, but it's hard to say whether he can be considered as "teaching" Shen Shixing.

At this time, Zhang Cheng sighed and said very reluctantly: "Originally, according to our family's wishes, the best way to deal with Gao Pragmatic is not to give him the opportunity to lead the army. If it is really the emperor himself who has

Even if we can't persuade him, we have to let Gao Jingshi send troops. Then we have to find ways to frustrate Gao Jingshi. At this time, Yuan Fu should not be obsessed with the success or failure of tens of thousands of troops, or the safety of three provinces and four towns...



Yuanfu, it is said that those who achieve great things do not stick to trivial details. Although our family is not as knowledgeable as you, we have studied in the study room for several years. Even our family can see that the current dispute between mental learning and practical learning is not

The power of the imperial court is just a facade. What your two factions are really fighting for is orthodoxy!

Yuanfu, you are the scholar of Zhuangyuan Gong, how can you still not know that Confucius killed Shaozhengmao?"

The incident of "Confucius executed Shaozhengmao" is only recorded in some historical materials. So some people choose to believe it, and some people choose not to believe it. After so long, and there are no new archaeological discoveries, the authenticity of this incident varies.

There will be different opinions.

What historical records are recorded? It is "Historical Records. The Family of Confucius": "In the fourteenth year of Dinggong and the fifty-sixth year of Confucius, the great minister Kou went to take photos, and he was very happy. A disciple said: "I heard that a gentleman is not afraid of disasters.

I am not happy when I am blessed." Confucius said: "This is what you are saying. Don't you say, 'I am happy to honor my subordinates'?" So he punished Dr. Lu for disrupting the government, Shaozheng Mao. And those who heard about the state affairs in March, porridge, lamb and pigs are not the same.

Decorate the Jia; men and women traveling on the road are separated from each other; Tu does not pick up things; guests from all over the country come to the city without asking for help, they all return home."

But to be honest, this is not a very common record, so whether it actually exists is questioned by the academic community.

However, this is not important.

Why? Because there are many clear records of Confucius’ other words and deeds in historical materials, and their credibility is very high.

Based on these records, we can infer Confucius's character and whether the incident of "killing Shao Zhengmao" is consistent with Confucius' consistent words and deeds.

In other words, it is not important whether Confucius actually killed Shao Zhengmao in history. What is important is that he used the method of "gentleman killing" to kill people. Could Confucius have done it? Obviously Confucius could do it.

come out.

People have different levels of wisdom and knowledge. Those who are wiser and have higher knowledge should teach those who are late to know, let them understand the truth, and make them understand. This is Confucius's consistent position.

However, as long as they are willing, those who are foresight can also deceive those who are late and do not know right from wrong, so that they do the right thing despite their ignorance - the principle is roughly "you are too

You are so stupid that you don’t even understand the truth, so you just need to know that it is right to do it, do it, and that is enough.”

In Confucius' view, Shaozhengmao was the latter type of person. The situation at that time was that Shaozhengmao's ability to "deceive people" exceeded Confucius' ability to teach people. Confucius couldn't deceive people, so he took action.

What should be noted here is that there is still a big difference between the original Confucianism promoted by Confucius and the fake Confucianism spread by later generations. Just like the fallacy of "repaying evil with kindness" that was once widely circulated in later generations, there is clearly a statement in "The Analects of Confucius"

It is clearly recorded: "One might say: 'How about repaying evil with kindness?' Confucius said: 'Why repay kindness? Repay evil with straightness, repay kindness with kindness.'"

Misinterpreting the original meaning of Confucius, inexplicably turning a fair and clear-minded Confucius into a good gentleman with unclear right and wrong. Then where is the true style of Confucius?

Moreover, in reality, "I can't reason with you" is a very common situation, and it is not an excuse.

For example, your 100-year-old great-grandmother shakily asks you to take her to the bank and take the coffin in the bankbook to Rome, and insists that you will receive it from Azeroth in three days.

China Post's registered letter contains the tickets for Noah's Ark at the end of the world. Due to the efforts of Cthulhu believers, the end of the world has been postponed, but the tickets are still preserved, and they will be gone if it is too late - at this time

What should you do? Be reasonable?

Your sister's 13- or 14-year-old daughter suddenly cried and wanted to drop out of school because she was spotted by a talent scout who said she had star potential, which was rare in a thousand years, so she wanted to train her to become a world-class star.

Popular all over the world. At this time, the little girl thinks that no matter what others say, they are jealous of her - what should you do at this time? Be reasonable?

The seven-year-old son of Lao Wang next door asked him seriously if there was a school where he could only play football without classes, because he wanted to lead the Chinese team to lift the Hercules Cup and would not give up until he achieved his goal - what should you do at this time?

Reasonable?

How do you plan to convince these people? Even if you have the ability, patience, and even the time to convince them, how do you stop scammers from continuing to deceive others?

In Confucius' view, Shaozhengmao may be just that kind of liar, but he is more clever than the above liars. He can deceive more people who should have normal intelligence, not just the elderly and children.

In Confucius' view, there are not necessarily no other ways to solve the problem of Shaozhengmao, but those methods may be too time-consuming and labor-intensive, and they are not as simple as killing him directly.

It must be admitted that direct killing is really effective. It seems that not even a word of Shao Zhengmao's words and deeds has been handed down in the official history. And this also shows to a certain extent that the possibility of Shao Zhengmao's real existence is very high. If it is

If it was made up by later generations, then they should also make up some of Shao Zhengmao's words and deeds to make the story look more "real", but they didn't.

Killing Shaozhengmao is an effective means to solve unconventional problems, just like there are always some indescribable mysterious existences between the Chinese Internet and the American Internet.

At this time, we don't need to care about who is right or wrong, that doesn't matter. We just need to ask ourselves: Who am I?

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This approach may not be very popular, but it is absolutely effective.

Zhang Bingbi laid out the story of "Confucius executed Shaozheng Mao", and Shen Shixing immediately understood what he meant: The dispute over orthodoxy seems to be a dispute over principles, but in the final analysis, only living people can speak truth, and dead people have no ability.

Argue with you.

As long as you turn the other party into a dead person, or at least a dead person in a political sense, then the truth will naturally be on your side. As for how the other party died, was it stabbed to death with a knife, shot from the back, or a

There is actually no difference in what is poisoned by Hedinghong.

What the Heart School needs now is just a result.

Shen Shixing figured it out, but his face didn't look better. After all, this was far from the so-called gentleman's virtues he had practiced for many years, and even the opposite. His face could be described as green and white in turns, but no matter

No matter how you change, you can never escape from four words: face as sinking as water.

As a young eunuch, Zhang Cheng certainly had solid basic skills in observing people's actions. He interrupted at the right time: "I heard that Gao Pangshi returned to Beijing from Annan in the past, and a visitor once asked him that he took the initiative to send troops to attack.

Are you worried about being condemned by future generations by destroying Annan?"

Shen Shixing's unfocused eyes turned back to Zhang Cheng's face, and he subconsciously asked: "Oh? How do Gao Qiuzhen answer?"

Zhang Cheng said calmly: "Gao Pragmatic said: 'History is written by the victors, so the victors are not condemned.'"

Shen Shixing was shocked, his eyes were fixed, and he murmured to himself: "The history books are written by the victors, so the victors are not condemned... What a 'victor is not condemned', what a Gao Longwen!"

By the end of his words, he was almost gnashing his teeth.

Seeing that the heat was enough, Zhang Cheng smiled slightly and said: "Yuanfu, please forgive me for being frank. You and Gao Jingshi are really a bit pedantic when they talk about the virtues of a gentleman. Don't you see how Gao Jingshi helped Gao Xuan drive away Zhang Taiyue in the past?

?Have you not seen that more than ten years later, Zhang Taiyue's heirs not only dare not talk about avenging their father, but also want to be pragmatic in order to stay in the Hanlin Academy or at least stay in the capital? This is what Gao pragmatic means.

The victor is not condemned' - because his opponent has been defeated and no one dares to condemn him."

Shen Shixing exhaled a long breath, nodded and said: "What Bingbi said is absolutely true. Shi Xing has understood clearly that there will be no hesitation in the future. However, this matter has come to this point, and it is useless to regret it.

It is only right to come up with practical strategies.”

"The first and most feasible strategy at present is to let Wei Xuezeng accept the victory of Zhuang Langwei!" Zhang Cheng said decisively: "Now that the victory of the northwest has been determined, the Xinxue princes have no way to fight, so what can be done now

, is nothing more than dividing this great achievement, and Gao Pragmatic must not be allowed to claim it by himself!"

Shen Shixing nodded slightly, but hesitantly said: "If that's the case, it would be best, but someone in the palace spread the word that it was the Holy One's intention..."

"Who would spread such rumors, Yuan Fu naturally knows it well, and there is no need for us to say anything." Zhang Cheng's eyes were cold and he said bitterly: "These two gangsters have controlled Si Lijian and Dongchang for nearly fifteen years, and they have colluded internally and externally.

, The inside should be coordinated with the outside, blinding the saints and blocking the loyal advice, even Wang Zhen and Liu Jin are not as harmful as them!"

Are "these two beasts" really that bad? Shen Shixing didn't think so, but of course he wouldn't say that. Instead, he nodded vigorously: "What Bingbi said is absolutely true, but how to break it?"

Zhang Chengdao: "Although the discussion of merit and reward has finally been decided, the cabinet's responsibilities are particularly heavy, and all major and minor merits and crimes are discussed first by the cabinet... Yuan Fu should know that although there are many practical and learned people in this cabinet, these few people are not

They may not be on the same road. Why doesn’t Yuan Fu think of a solution from Xu Yingyang? Let’s ask about the rewards and punishments of the dynasty. If the opinions of Yuan Fu and Second Fu are consistent, how can the rest of the mediocre people be right!”

When Shen Shixing heard this, he thought it was reasonable. After pondering for a while, he asked again: "Perhaps Xu Yingyang will really be comrades with me on this matter, but the pragmatic saints only favor him, and there are gold and jade to open the way. There are many people who will follow him. I'm just worried.

If the excitement becomes severe, these people will imitate the great ritual discussions of the past and write sparse memorials, forming a trend. At that time, once the emperor thinks of personal friendship..."

Zhang Cheng frowned and pondered for a moment, then said slowly: "This is indeed a trouble. I think that the pragmatic man will use gold and jade to open the way, let alone the outer court, even the nobles and even the palace, there are countless people who have suffered

Favor him, if he wants to spend money to forcefully buy this prince, it will be hard for people to guard against, and even harder to stop..."

The two of them were silent together, and after a while, Zhang Cheng sighed and spoke: "I remember that before the Double Ninth Festival last year, Yuan Fu met with Gao Pingshi and agreed on a lot of things. I wonder if Yuan Fu can repeat his old tricks again.

Convince Gao Pragmatic to let go?”

It was okay not to mention this matter, but Shen Shixing got angry when he mentioned it. Last time, it seemed that the two parties had settled the matter, but afterwards he found that he had not taken any advantage at all. Zhang Cheng suddenly mentioned this matter, and if it hadn't been for Shen Shixing

Knowing his position, one might even suspect that he was deliberately mocking himself for losing his wife and losing his army.

But having said that, the current situation is like this, and the momentum of Gao Pragmatism has been unstoppable. At this time, relying on strong pressure alone, even if it can persuade Xu Guo, may not necessarily be able to suppress it, at least it is not safe. If we really want to ensure that Gao Pragmatism will not get this title,

If you want to reward him, the most reliable way is to persuade him to give up on his own initiative.

But there is a problem. Gao Pragmatic is about to become the fourth civil servant of the Ming Dynasty. What reason does he have to give up? At least thinking from the perspective of Shen Shixing, if he is Gao Pragmatic, in the future

Under such circumstances, it is probably difficult to achieve the goal of "not fighting for a false reputation, but refusing to accept it" - after all, the title given to a civil servant is really not a false reputation.

Shen Shixing expressed his problem with great headache. He thought that Zhang Cheng had no good solution, but Zhang Cheng had a very simple solution: "Yuanfu's poems and books were passed down to the family. It seems that no one in the family really has any idea."

It’s no wonder that those who run a lowly business are at a loss for what to do. In fact, this matter is not complicated, it is just a business.

Since it is a sale, of course there is a bargaining process, and since Yuan Fu first mentioned the sale, then of course the process cannot be done by Yuan Fu first talking about the number and asking Gao Jingshi if he wants to sell. Now Gao Jingshi is the seller.

, the goods he sells are the titles. He has to ask first what the price of this thing is. No matter how high the price he asks, Yuan Fu only needs to get down to the ground and pay back the money - it must be negotiated first. "

Shen Shixing agreed with the previous points, but Zhang Cheng's last sentence made Shen Shixing a little uneasy and asked: "What should I do if Gao Qiuzhen is the bastard who eats the weight and is determined not to talk to me?

?”

"That shouldn't be possible." Zhang Cheng shook his head, and under Shen Shixing's doubtful eyes, he said with confidence: "Gao Pragmatic is different from ordinary officials. He is at least half a businessman. Yuan Fu knows business.

What do people value? What they value is that everything can be negotiated, as long as you can afford the price!"

Shen Shixing suddenly realized it, clapped his hands and said: "Bingbi really has a sharp eye, what he said is really hitting the nail on the head." Then he paused, not paying attention to Zhang Cheng's proud expression, and continued: "From the past, old things

From the looks of it, Gao Pragmatic is really such a person. As long as the price is right, I think he will definitely be willing to sell this title!"

"That's right." Zhang Cheng showed a proud smile and said with twinkling eyes: "We might as well discuss the future affairs later, but Yuan Fu should settle the matter first. Yuan Fu must remember that not only must he talk to Gao Pragmatic

To reach a settlement, we need to reach a settlement with Xu Yingyang."

Shen Shixing smiled slightly: "Be careful with your writing, save time and money, and be pragmatic. This time, Xu Yingyang's position is becoming more and more precarious. I might be able to stir up some trouble..."

"Hahahaha!" Zhang Cheng laughed and said, "Yuan Fu is wise, that's what our family means."
