Thank you for Liuyun’s unchanged 20,000 piaohong!

...

After seeing off the disappointed Xu Jingchang, Fang Xing went to the college to take a look.

As the actual person in charge of the academy, Xie Jin didn’t have much work and was very leisurely, so after seeing Fang Xing, he said depressedly: “Dehua, why don’t you arrange more classes for me?”

Fang Xing shook his head and said sincerely: "You are highly respected. If I am not here, I have to rely on you to support the academy. I dare not tired you!"

"You, you! You really don't even get any loopholes for me."

Xie Jin shook his head and sighed. He just wanted to add a little time to Confucianism, but Fang Xing took the lead in blocking the gap.

Fang Xing smiled and said, "Mr. Jie, I am afraid that those students will learn more Confucianism and become young masters when they become them. Then I can find a rope to hang the beam."

"Is it not good to know how to advance and retreat, but understand the truth?"

Xie Jin was still a little unwilling to give up. He thought he could have more classes and then train these students to become humble gentlemen and gentle as jade.

"It's not that it's not good, how do you say it?"

Fang Xing stroked the armrest of the rattan chair, "The Ming Dynasty is not short of such a superficial gentleman. Morality can be restricted by rules and can instill codes of conduct since childhood. But I don't want these students to lose their initiative and aggressiveness. That will be a disaster for Fang Xue."

"Confucianism wants to turn people into something that comes from the same mold." Fang Xing looked at Xie Jin with a bright eye and said, "I said to be at the center of the middle, and Confucianism said to be the doctrine of the mean, which are all things to cultivate the mind, but these are not what I want."

"Look at the students of the Imperial College, how many years have they been influenced by Confucianism? But those who should go to the Qinhuai River still have to go, those who should be sweet-sworded still look like gentlemen, and those who should be forgetful of righteousness are still passionate. So, I think Confucianism teaches people how to pretend to be a gentleman and think about human nature too well."

"A child's character shaping has actually been established at home, and what is left is his own polishing outside. In school, I am blunt, it is better to teach his skills. As for morality, it is cultivated by one's own practice, not by one's teaching."

Thinking of the strange phenomena of the schools in the future, Fang Xing felt that it was not reliable to rely on the school simply because morality was blindly aware of it.

"Using rules to restrain them, and then slowly becomes a code of conduct recognized by the whole people, this is the morality in my heart."

Xie Jin sighed: "What you said is good, but it is difficult to achieve, a castle in the air!"

Fang Xingzhen said, "How can I know if I don't do it?"

"You are a Legalist!"

Xie Jin was a little surprised at Fang Xing's pessimism about morality.

"Not counting, I just think..."

"What's the matter?"

Fang Xing asked when he saw Xiaodao standing outside the door.

"Master, Your Majesty invites you to the palace."

Why did Lao Zhu ask me to go?

"Deva hurry up, don't delay it."

Xie Jin had suffered a lot of losses before. After accumulating too much, he was finally kicked into the prison of imperial decree by Zhu Di.

After Fang woke up in the palace, the atmosphere was not right.

Zhu Di was in a temper and there were more broken things on the ground.

"Zhu Yong is incompetent! It's better to be incompetent, but he was actually played by those salt merchants. Who will go to Yangzhou Prefecture?"

Zhu Di's eyes swept across Fang Xing's body, but Fang Xing stood there with an expressionless face, without any intention of volunteering.

Zhu Di snorted coldly and looked at the other martial honors.

The current situation in Yangzhou Prefecture is a bit strange. Zhu Yong was in charge, but the salt merchants used some methods to enjoy the gentleness all day long.

According to Zhu Di's personality, he should have sent troops to acquire people directly. But it is not possible at the moment.

The salt merchants said that they cooperated with the salt administration reform, but secretly reduced the supply, and the market immediately responded to price increases!

It would be impossible to suppress it with a tough pressure, but after losing the salt merchants, the government could not take over this huge market for a while.

If the salt is broken then, haha! Zhu Di can imagine what the entire Ming Dynasty will be like.

But Wuxuns have tough methods of handling things, but lack flexibility and can easily mess things up.

Needless to say, civil servants have no guarantee of force, it would be a waste of effort.

These people are challenging me!

A sharp light flashed in Zhu Di's eyes, and he personally called out: "Fang Xing, you have been to Yangzhou Prefecture twice. You go and take Jubaoshan Guard."

Fang Xing sighed in his heart and said, "Your Majesty, how can you do it?"

As soon as this question arose, Zhang Fu secretly praised it, but Hu Guang and other civil officials frowned.

Yangzhou Prefecture must be full of celebration at this time. After they saw that Zhu Yong left in shame, Xinghe Bo, who was known as "magnanimous"...

No one knows what the salt merchants will react, but they will definitely not give Fang Xing good fruit to eat.

Zhu Di's eyes were full of murderous intent. What he hated the most in his life was being threatened. The salt merchants were actually telling him through Zhu Yong: Your Majesty, you have to give us a way out...

"As long as you can ensure that there is no shortage of salt on the market, I will let you do it!"

It's going to die!

And many people will die!

"Yes, your Majesty!"

Fang Xing received the order, and then Zhu Di urged: "Hurry up and go back to reorganize the army, and you will leave tomorrow."

After Fang Xing left, Zhu Di sneered: "Xinghe Bocai will be assassinated, and two eunuchs in the palace will be killed. I am waiting for someone to inform the salt merchants today."

His cold eyes swept across the ministers, and wherever he passed, he was drooping.

This is Zhu Di!

What a bullshit harmony between the monarch and the minister, a king without intimidation will only be despised by his ministers!

There is harmony in the gun!

As soon as Fang Xing left the palace, he asked Xin Laoqi to inform Lin Qun'an, but he went to Taisun's Mansion himself.

Yu Jia still had a nice smile. While greeting Fang Xing in, he smiled and said, "My uncle hasn't been here for a long time, so our family misses him very much."

Fang Xing said lightly: "What do you miss me?"

Yu Jia was still smiling: "Boye is a savage man, and we Xing Yu people admire you very much. We all want to learn something from you."

Fang Xing beat him up, but he ignored him all the way to the study.

After arriving at the study, Yu Jia went to report that Fang Xing was standing outside and not long after he saw a woman coming out of it.

"I've met Xing and Bo."

This woman was seen last time, it was the night of the Lantern Festival.

Fang Xing turned sideways to avoid it and said lightly: "I dare not."

After entering, Fang Xing saw that Zhu Zhanji's face was a little flushed, and he said in a deep voice: "What happened to Zhu Yong?"

Fang Xing really felt a little confused if he didn't understand how Zhu Yong got it.

Zhu Zhanji signaled Yu Jia to go out, and then said: "Duke Cheng took in a few women, then took in some money, and was addicted to women all day long. After the salt merchants joined forces to cut the supply of salt, it was too late."

"He didn't do it?"

Fang Xing felt that Zhu Yong should have killed a few salt merchants to shock him.

Zhu Zhanji sneered: "Killed, but Yangzhou Prefecture also spread the news that he accepted women and property. He was in a mess. How could he still take on the great responsibility!"

"Luckily he is Wu Xun!" Fang Xing didn't know whether to regret Zhu Yong or to feel glad for him.

If a civil servant reveals such a scandal, Zhu Di's first reaction is probably to confiscate his home, behead his head, and exile his family.
Chapter completed!
