"The book says: Zheng Bo Duan Yu Yan. Duan is not a younger brother, so he does not call him younger brother; he is like the second prince, so he is called Ke; calling him Uncle Zheng is a mockery of his lack of education."
"The meaning of this sentence is that "Spring and Autumn" believes that Gongshu Duan does not abide by the duty of being a younger brother, so he is not said to be the younger brother of Duke Zhuang; the two brothers fight like two monarchs, so the word "ke" is used
"To call Duke Zhuang "Uncle Zheng" instead of Duke Zhuang is to ridicule him for being ignorant of his younger brother."
When the young master said this, the fifth prince showed a sarcastic expression on his face.
The young master said: "Your Highness, do you have any questions?"
The fifth prince said: "What mistake did Duke Zheng Zhuang make? But he was ridiculed by the author in the history books and ridiculed by the world."
The young master said: "Zheng Zhuanggong let his brother go over and over again, and only sent troops to suppress him until it was irreversible. There was no connivance in it. If he had warned him earlier, how could he have turned against his brother, mother and son, and the whole world would suffer."
The fifth prince seemed to have eaten gunpowder today. He had just finished choking with Gu Yu, and then he choked with the Grand Master.
The fifth prince said angrily: "When Zheng Zhuanggong was born, he was rejected by his mother Wu Jiang. He did not feel any love since he was a child, and he did not achieve hegemony. My younger brother Gongshu Duan enjoyed his mother's love, but he was not satisfied and became greedy.
He wanted to seize the throne of Duke Zheng Zhuang and cause the world to suffer.
What's wrong with Duke Zhuang of Zheng when he said that he was "unjust and disrespectful, and he will be destroyed if he is thick"? Duan Yuyan, his uncle, was killed, and it was his own fault. Why should he say that he was "like two monarchs, so he is called a gram"? Duan, his uncle, was the only one.
Are rebellious ministers and traitors worthy of being called 'jun'?"
Gu Yu couldn't help but look sideways.
This is the judgment given by the history books to Zheng Zhuanggong and Gongshu Duan. It skillfully uses the Spring and Autumn style of writing and combines praise and blame in the tortuous writing style.
An "Uncle Zheng" belittled Duke Zheng Zhuang's act of praising the murder of his younger brother, and a "Ke" covered up the fact that his uncle Duan had rebelled, turning it into a "battle between the two monarchs" and bringing Duke Zhuang down again. "The Legend of Gongyang" even more
The word "ke" refers to "the evil of the Great Uncle Zheng".
Historical history books record this period of history. While criticizing Gongshu Duan, they always demote Zhuang Gong even lower, thinking that it was Zhuang Gong's deliberate connivance that led to Gongshu Duan's demise step by step.
The young master couldn't help but sigh after hearing the fifth prince's words, and said: "Your Highness, as the elder brother, Mr. Zhuang should be responsible for teaching his younger brother Gongshu Duan, but he keeps condoning..."
"absurd!"
The fifth prince interrupted the young master and said: "If as an elder brother, he should take the responsibility of teaching his younger brother, then as Wu Jiang is the mother of Duke Zhuang, wouldn't it be even more important? But because Wu Jiang had difficulty in giving birth to Duke Zhuang, she did not give birth to Duke Zhuang.
He was named "Wansheng", which means "evil, loving uncle Duan".
As a mother, Wu Jiang did not fulfill her responsibilities to educate Duke Zheng Zhuang, but she asked Duke Zheng Zhuang, an elder brother, to fulfill his responsibilities of educating his younger brother. Isn’t it ridiculous? Uncle Duan brought his own destruction, and you blame Duke Zhuang, your elder brother, for not admonishing him.
Isn’t Mr. Zhuang pathetic?”
The young master looked at the fifth prince's fierce eyes and was speechless.
In other words, he is not speechless, but there are some things he cannot say directly.
He chose this article "Zheng Beke and Duan Yu Yan" because he wanted to use the experiences of Zheng Zhuanggong and Gongshu Duan and use history as a guide to persuade the fifth and sixth princes to be respectful to each other.
But the fifth prince obviously only caught on to their behavior and did not explore their psychology in detail.
The young master is in a dilemma. You can't say that if your brother wants to snatch the throne from you in the future, you should let him destroy himself and then kill him with one blow.
This is really against ethical principles.
The young master couldn't say it, and he didn't dare to say it.
The fifth prince saw the young master speechless, as if he was a victorious rooster, and glanced provocatively at Gu Yu, who was standing aside.
Gu Yu could understand the anger of the fifth prince.
The word "夤生" in the article touched the fragile heart of the fifth prince and made him feel that he was in the same boat.
Zhuang Gongji's surname is Zheng, and her given name is Huansheng.
And "夤生" means difficult labor.
This is equivalent to, if placed in a modern context, Zheng Zhuanggong's name would be "Ji Dystocia".
When introducing someone, say: "Hello, my name is Ji Nandu, what is your name?"
This name is too crazy.
Such a name would be unbearable for ordinary people, let alone Duke Zhuang, who is a majestic king.
It is evident that Zheng Zhuanggong’s mother dislikes Zheng Zhuanggong.
Because of the birth of the fifth prince, Queen Xiaomin died in childbirth. As a result, the emperor loved and hated the fifth prince, neglected to discipline him, and his character gradually became violent.
The fifth prince looked at Gu Yu's silence, and became even more arrogant, saying: "The benevolence, righteousness and morality written all over the paper are extremely hypocritical. It's not my script that should be torn up, it's this book that should be torn up. Gu Yu, don't you think so?"
Gu Yu corrected him again: "Fifth Prince, you should call me Young Master."
The fifth prince's tone was full of provocation: "Young Master, do you think this book should be torn?"
Gu Yu looked directly into the fifth prince's eyes and said, "It should be torn apart."
The young master said: "Young master Gu, you can't do that!"
"Spring and Autumn" is a Confucian classic. If the fifth prince was really allowed to tear it up, Confucian scholars all over the world would definitely denounce it.
As the husbands of the fifth prince, he and Gu Yu cannot escape the blame.
Gu Yu gave the young master a calm look.
The fifth prince seemed to have won a great victory and handed the book to Gu Yudao: "Over there, please ask Mr. Gu to tear up this misleading book with your own hands."
Gu Yu took the book, but made no move. Instead, he said: "It is better to have no books than to believe in books. The fifth prince has his own thoughts and opinions on history, which is very good."
The fifth prince sneered and said, "Do you think I am a child who gets proud of myself after being praised a few times?"
Gu Yu calmly said: "The so-called history books are written by people with reference to historical facts. Since they are written by people, they have the implicit tendency of the author. It is reasonable that the fifth prince does not agree with the evaluation of Zheng Zhuanggong in the history books.
middle."
The fifth prince said: "Hypocritical, hypocritical, hypocritical. If one person is like this, is it possible that tens of thousands of people who read this book will be like this?"
Gu Yudao: "What the Fifth Prince said is absolutely true. It's just that this book can be regarded as a Confucian classic, which has its own advantages. The logic of the causes and consequences is clear, the characters are vividly depicted, the language is subtle but explicit, euphemistic and eloquent, precise and plump, and concise.
And the Fifth Prince Ao may not agree with the denigration of Duke Zheng Zhuang, but he cannot but agree with this point."
The fifth prince did not refute.
Gu Yudao: "You can tear up this book if you want, but the premise is that you can tell this period of history properly like Zuo Qiuming. I don't say it is better than Mr. Zuo Qiuming, I just say it is equivalent. It counts as one in "Spring and Autumn". Tear it up."
There is nothing wrong with replacing this page with your article.”
The fifth prince's face looked ugly.
He has the ability to refute the views in the book, but he does not have the ability to write out his own views in a way that is both reasonable and reasonable, and his writing is fluent, and he dare not say that he is better than Zuo Qiuming.
He did not dare to actually tear up the book, knowing that the crime of tearing up Confucian classics would do him no good at all.
I just don't like Gu Yu and want to find trouble.
Gu Yu presented the book with both hands and said: "The fifth prince has profound insights. I hope you will continue to listen and speak more."
Gu Yu gave him a step down, and the fifth prince took the book back from Gu Yu's hand with a cold face.
After sitting back down again, the young master cast an admiring look at Gu Yu.
No matter what the fifth prince thought in his heart, he could sit back again because of Gu Yu's few words.
It was enough for the young master to admire Gu Yu.
