Because of Kong Yanzhi’s original suggestion, no one in the Ming Dynasty is willing to make themselves unhappy, give up the hard-won opportunity to get rid of their lowly status, and go out to laugh, sing, and show off their figures to earn a living, waiting to be reclassified.
The ranks of lowly slaves with no status. But a peaceful and prosperous age cannot lack these folk arts projects, and the Tatars have to atone for three lives anyway, so they don’t have so many scruples. Among them, those who can’t farm and dare not go into battle to kill the enemy are not so good-looking.
It was not too scary, so he took over this mission and took on the important task of bringing joy to the people of Ming Dynasty.
But ordinary Tatars, no matter how good they sing or how lively they dance, are just doing it to make Boruto laugh and earn a living. Their lives were even worse than those of Lehu in previous years. And no matter how boring Qiao Yunsheng, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishments,
He doesn't have time to talk to so many people. What he needs to educate is the leaders among them, such as Huang Taiji and others who are qualified to perform in the Ancestral Temple...
Coincidentally, Chongzhen, a foolish emperor, loved to show off. In order to let the humble Zhu Yuanzhang know that the Ming Dynasty was more powerful recently, he took these former confidants from the capital and took them to Xiaoling to perform a three-day and three-night opera.
Otherwise, even if he wanted to agree to Qiao Shangshu's request, it would be difficult to do so. Of course, it is not unreasonable for Chongzhen to be called a foolish king. At least he was very confused in handling this matter and did not know what Qiao Yunsheng was going to do.
What, just threw the person directly into the lobby of the Ministry of Justice.
Now that someone has taken the initiative to take over this hot potato, the ministers in the ministries who are so busy have no time to pay attention to what happened in the Ministry of Punishment when martial law was suddenly declared on February 16, the night of the full moon. Anyway, if it was not handled well
, which really gave those rotten scholars a chance to run into the streets and cause mischief, the unlucky one must be Old Man Qiao. The worst they can do is to collectively file a letter to remove this traitor and trick him into doing odd jobs in his own department, and by the way, recruit the general Zhenguo on the Japanese island.
Come back and take the blame.
Just less than ten days before the corrupt Confucians launched street protests, they seemed to have ushered in spring. Starting from Jinling, all the artistic performers suddenly began to promote Zhu Cheng and Neo-Confucianism in their performances. This is a good thing.
, even the Tatars were influenced by the words of the saint. Of course, the corrupt scholars would not give up this golden opportunity, and jumped out from all corners to create a public opinion atmosphere for the upcoming protests.
However, just when the corrupt scholars were happily preparing to cheer for the upcoming victory, they realized how shameless Qiao Yunsheng was and how good those Tatars were at making things up. When Zhu Xi, who was best at only allowing state officials to set fires and not allowing people to light lamps, met
After the Tatars who know best about educating the ignorant...
The principle of human desire to preserve nature has been deliberately distorted. The common people who have just read the book for a few days still don't know the true meaning, and they don't care about the various explanations that have no direct relationship with them. But in the Tatars' drama
Lina became the cradle of the new ethnic policy, and it was necessary to promote it to the entire Ming Dynasty! How could the people accept this? They only knew that there were three unfilial piety and no offspring was the worst! At this time, the national superiority and inferiority that the Ming court had been advocating also began to show
Due to its power, the common people understand that different fertility policies are exactly the big difference between them and those who were demoted as slaves. If the court really cancels the support that was implemented less than two years ago, then they will become like the Tatars.
?So public opinion began to boil, and the position of Zhu Xi, who almost became the ancestor of the Ming royal family, plummeted in their hearts.
Before the corrupt scholars could understand what was going on, the Tatars began to change their direction again. It seemed that they were unwilling to be the lowest level of pariahs, and they quoted the words of the saints again and pointed the finger at the merchants, directly denouncing them as "untouchables".
A silverfish who went against the teachings of the saints and did not engage in production and made huge profits. Now he really poked a hornet's nest, making those former important officials who had resigned and were going out to rob people extremely angry. Is there any justice in this?
Even the descendants of the great Confucian saints of the time said that class division is wrong, these Tatars still want to use this excuse to trample the former scholars under their feet? So, Zhou Yanru and others who were lying and shot came forward.
We must rise up in anger to refute this fallacy.
Of course. The Tatars themselves are barbarians who do not know how to educate themselves. Neither the people of the Ming Dynasty nor the learned scholars are in the mood to be serious with them. But the group of rotten scholars standing behind the Tatars are simply unforgivable, especially after they have been wronged.
Don't think that the former important ministers of the imperial court, as mentioned in the local government, will lose their strength after they step down. Overnight, countless people from all over the country, from the people to the court, stood up and began to criticize the corrupt Confucians verbally and writtenly.
Now the rotten scholars are really dumbfounded. They don't have to worry about ordinary public opinion. Anyway, as long as they can regain the right to speak, anything can be corrected. What makes them despair is that this new privileged class is still a thing that has disappeared, but they
They stood on the opposite side of all the scholars. No matter how they explained it, Yuhi's colleagues were determined to punish these guys who tried to use public opinion to prevent them from getting rich. They would never be able to recover! Some people even started to attack.
A reward order was issued, and the heads of these corrupt Confucians who wanted to use the mantis as a vehicle to prevent the rise of the Ming Dynasty were clearly and explicitly purchased.
Faced with the heated public sentiment, Emperor Chongzhen, who was sitting in Nanjing, finally could no longer stand by and watch. He issued an official voice through the Bailian Sect, which traveled around the country and was more instigating than the corrupt Confucians. The Ming Dynasty was a reasonable and legal country.
If you allow others to express different opinions, you will never create any kind of literary inquisition. Let's argue, but don't use the knife. Otherwise, the Ming Law does not matter whether your starting point is good or bad. Once you violate it, you will be arrested and put on trial.
.
As soon as this order was issued, the poaching operation planned by the rotten scholars failed before it even started. In addition to turning themselves into street rats that everyone yelled at, it also demonstrated the emperor's kindness and kindness, making the imperial court originally
The secretly launched god-making movement accelerated the process.
"Qiao Aiqing, you are really damaging! This trick is so beautiful!" In the palace, Chongzhen almost laughed from ear to ear when he saw the secret reports from all over the place. He originally only hoped to cause less trouble before the reform started.
He is a member, but he really didn't expect that he could kill two birds with one stone and gain such a good reputation for himself. It seems that the little fat man is right. If you want to be a saint, you must first learn what shamelessness is.
Where is this? It's just a small trick, so a handful of rotten scholars dare to fight with me? The rotten scholars are very smart, and their timing is pretty good, and the demands they raise seem to be extremely reasonable.
How reasonable, because they are the officials responsible for controlling public opinion. But they can scold the emperor happily because they have the support of the entire scholar group. Once they leave this group, they are just clowns. Qiao Yunsheng did not care at all.
He was so proud of such a small thing, so he just responded in a routine manner: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the compliment!"
"Okay, don't be too modest! I know rewards and punishments clearly..." Chongzhen also felt that if he was a gentleman, it would be too cliché to reward him with some gold, silver and jewelry. After thinking about it, he said: "I heard that Chongzhen
My brother captured a lot of female slaves on the Japanese island, how about I give you a few that are well-born and long and beautiful?"
"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty! I deserve it..." The health of an older man is getting worse every year. If Chongzhen had said this when he was pacifying Liaodong, Qiao Yunsheng would have been happy, but now
He really has no interest in it. "This policy was proposed by Qitai. I dare not take credit from others!"
"Sun Aiqing? Where do you want to go when you are running around all day?" Chongzhen couldn't understand. That guy was obviously a great scholar in Neo-Confucianism and had written several books. Why couldn't he calm down and teach?
A few days ago, I went to compete for the position of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and now I am actually involved in the affairs of the Ministry of Justice.
I'm not a mouse, so what does leaping mean? It should be called the unity of knowledge and action! Sun Qifeng, who was named, cursed behind his back. He stood up helplessly and explained: "Isn't this what I saw a few days ago?
The corrupt Confucians are almost lawless, so they thought of this trick. Since they all worship Zhu Zi, it is better to use this to draw them out and use public opinion to help them make more enemies..."
"Okay, stop talking! I don't have time to listen! Tell me, what do you want?" Chongzhen was pretending to be generous. The wholesale price of those Japanese girls was one tael of silver each, so he gave it to Qiao Yunsheng.
It was because he knew the old man wouldn't want it. But Sun Qifeng was in his prime, so he had to give him money if he wanted it.
The imperialists and sycophants present knew very well how unkind and ungrateful Chongzhen was, and Sun Qifeng would not be so stupid as to take such a casual promise seriously. "The study of ministers is based on the study of the heart.
Shen Du is the sect, and it is important to understand the principles of heaven. To..." He looked up and found signs that the emperor had fallen asleep. Sun Qifeng, who was talking eloquently, could not show off his knowledge and said directly:
"I want to go to Japan to visit General Zhenguo!"
"No!" Chongzhen regretted letting Nan Juyi run away. He didn't want to become like those rotten scholars who hide at home and cry. "Brother Cong, there are people fighting and killing all day long. Why are you, a weak scholar, doing that?
?If you have nothing to do, just stay in the court honestly!"
"But..." Don't they say that the emperor promised you a thousand pieces of gold? I haven't asked you for money or power yet, so why were you rejected? Sun Qifeng complained unwillingly: "Your Majesty, you just didn't pay back..."
"I just said that you can ask for anything, but I didn't say that I would agree!" In order not to affect the wise image he had just established, Chongzhen threatened patiently: "Now you can go wherever you want in the Sixth Department of the Central Dynasty.
, but if you mention the trip to Japan again, I will kick you to take care of Zhao Prison!"
"Thank you, Lord!" Before Sun Qifeng could say anything, Qiao Yunsheng jumped out. According to the plan, Zhao Prison was under the jurisdiction of his Ministry of Punishment. If the emperor really threw such a genius into it, he would be stupid.
How can I watch such a right-hand man living a leisurely life there?
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, please think twice..." Is there any sense in this world anymore? Kong Yanzhi, who had just been freed from infamy, did not bother to express his gratitude to Qiao Yunsheng, and started to accuse him with snot and tears. "Qi.
Taiyuan was under the management of our Ministry of Education for offering wine to the Imperial Academy. Now that he is punished without being rewarded for his great merit, it will chill the hearts of the people in the world! In my opinion, why not keep him with me to receive the teachings of the saint and see the consequences?
"
"Master Kong, what you are saying is untrue!" Xiong Wencan, who had just returned from the south, could no longer sit still. He said that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in his charge was the most urgent in terms of talent shortage. Other departments could turn around wherever they wanted.
A well-educated man can make do with it, but what he wants is that he must be knowledgeable and eloquent, and be shameless and ready to speak without hesitation. "It is said that the beauty of a gentleman is the beauty of being an adult, but the evil of being an adult. Now that Qitai has joined our Ministry of Foreign Affairs, you have
Why bother interfering?"
"Master Xiong, what you said is wrong! As a young man, it is normal for your undecided character to be difficult to make a decision due to interference from the outside world..." While saying this, Kong Yanzhi also glared at Xiong Wencan, and the meaning could not be clearer.
Already.
"Master Kong is worthy of being a great scholar in this world, and I deeply agree with what you said, but I'm afraid who is instigating this is..." This old guy still dares to compete with me for talents? I don't want you to see what it means.
The diplomats of the Ming Dynasty have really spent the past few years following that little fat man. Xiong Wencan immediately started his rebuttal. Not only did he insinuate accusations against Kong Yanzhi, but he also took the opportunity to place an advertisement for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that he was responsible for, so that the vote next to him was
The traitorous minister of the new era who was hesitant about where to go could not help but feel his heart beat.
"Nonsense..." The usual debate meeting in the Chongzhen Dynasty started again, but this time there were relatively few participants, namely the righteous Qiao Yunsheng, the knowledgeable Kong Yanzhi and the eloquent Xiong Wencan.
"My lords..." Sun Qifeng also wanted to watch the show with the emperor, but these three guys went too far, and actually reduced him, an outstanding talent who has passed his forties, to worthless.
Just as easy to be fooled as those kids on the street with runny noses and butt curtains.
"Stay here and wait until we finish talking before we decide who wants you!" The three people in the quarrel turned around and yelled in a tacit understanding, using Sun Qifeng, who they were fighting for with all their strength, as a punching bag.
"Sun Aiqing, I don't mean to blame you deliberately. If you have any good strategies, why don't you just write them down in a memorial? If you have to show them off everywhere, will you get burned?" His ministers were quarreling, and Chongzhen was too embarrassed to join in the fun, so he summoned Sun Qifeng.
He came to his side and said: "Remember, be smarter next time!"
"Yes! Yes! I am stupid, I..." Sun Qifeng really regretted it. Originally, he just hoped to show off his skills to attract the emperor's attention, and then took the opportunity to claim credit and sneaked to the Japanese island to fool around with the little fat man and the Nanshu people there.
God, I have increased my knowledge, but I have ignored that the Ming Dynasty is full of shameless people. "But Your Majesty, can you also stop them and let them continue to argue like this..."
"It's okay, let them warm up first!" Chongzhen took out a memorial and said with a smile: "The things over there are ready. You can take a look at it first. If you find anything wrong, just raise it quickly. It's okay.
Can I get the upper hand while we discuss business?" (To be continued..)
