Chapter two hundred and sixty-ninth, please clear the source of the original

The court debate was in full swing, and New Confucianism was also widely publicized. Originally, these were two things that were unrelated. Although they were both big things, no one linked them together.

But when some officials began to praise New Confucianism and made great efforts to make a big call, things changed instantly.

At the beginning, it was fine, but some lower-level officials, but as the scale expanded, countless people's eyes fell all over the ground. When the imperial envoy and Liuke began to write a letter to the clerk and praised New Confucianism, the trend began to emerge.

These people were originally officials of Feng Xian and the mouthpiece of the court. Once they opened fire, their power was naturally extraordinary.

Within a few days, the Qingliu Ci ministers also stood up, and many people began to promote New Confucianism and promote the origin of the truth. Most of these people are disciples of the mind, so it is not difficult to change the family.

The scholars of the mind from all over the country have also begun to speak out and are preparing to go to Beijing to participate in this prosperous era.

In short, it was a mess, which caught everyone off guard. Things changed too quickly and there was no time to respond. For a moment, the entire capital was filled with storms.

Cabinet duty room.

Several cabinet ministers gathered together again. In addition to the first assistant Grand Secretary Shen Shixing, the second assistant Yu You Ding and Fang Fengshi, the newly promoted cabinet Grand Secretary Zeng Shengwu is also here.

Wang Xijue has not returned from Shanxi yet, but has escaped the ups and downs of the capital.

Shen Shixing glanced at the three people and said, "Everyone, the capital has been in a big trouble recently. I wonder what you think of this new Confucianism?"

Obviously, when things have reached this point, the cabinet needs to have an attitude.

The cabinet must make a statement whether New Confucianism is praised or trampled. If it is advocated, it must be encouraged and promoted, and implemented in the imperial examinations and promoted them widely among officials.

If it is a stepping on it, then the new Confucianism must be labeled as a heretic theory.

Not to mention expulsion and arrest, it is probably almost the same. At least we have to give advice to the emperor.

After hearing Shen Shixing's words, no one said anything. They were not stupid. Things have basically become clear when things have reached this point. New Confucianism clearly shows that the emperor is pushing, and even fools can see it.

Li Zhi has been in Beijing for several years. In name, Lu Shenxing is pushing forward by the civil servants, but in fact it is not.

Li Zhi also participated in the restructuring in Daxing County. If it were not for the emperor's approval and promotion, how could a small Li Zhi have such energy? Since Li Zhi is headed by the new Confucianism, it is enough to prove that this matter is being promoted by the emperor.

It would be simple to make inferences on this conclusion, and I'm afraid the whole thing is being pushed by the emperor.

From the Law and Discipline Department to the Ming Dynasty, everything is the work of the emperor.

After knowing this, the ministers had only two choices, one was to agree with the emperor, and the other was to oppose the emperor. It was naturally dismissive to say that he would advocate New Confucianism, the equality of the four peoples, and the revision of the Ming Dynasty.

If you don’t agree, then you will object, write a letter to object, and denounce New Confucianism.

As for the consequences, there is no need to say. I agree that I have made great achievements and don’t agree that I will go home to hold my children. Judging from the emperor’s posture, I will basically not compromise. In addition, the emperor has become more and more domineering in the past two years, so I guess I will take a ruthless move this time.

"I have some ideas." Zeng Shengwu spoke first at this time.

For Zeng Shengwu, he was a close minister of the emperor, and was closer to Shen Shixing and Yu Youding. Although he was promoted by Zhang Juzheng, the one who really promoted him to a high position was the emperor.

"This new Confucianism has some advantages." Zeng Shengwu didn't go to see the other people and said directly: "Times change, and this sentence makes sense."

"The reason why the Han Dynasty was strong was that Emperor Wu of Han abolished all schools of thought and respected Confucianism."

"If all schools of thought were not abolished and Confucianism alone, how could the Han Dynasty be strong? How could the Huns be swept through the pursuit of the demise of the north?"

"When Mr. Zhang was alive, he had already opened the chapter of the Ming Dynasty's reform, but if he did not do it thoroughly, he could only be regarded as a precedent. Today's wise and wise emperors are far superior to Hanwu. The Ming Dynasty's reform and reform should be opened to the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty."

"Zhao Wuling King Hu clothing, cavalry and shooting, Qi was reformed by Guan Zhong, Qin was reformed by Shang Yang, and when the Han Dynasty was in power, all schools of thought were abolished and Confucianism was respected, making Han stronger and stronger between China and abroad. It can be seen that reform and reform are actually the way to enrich the country and strengthen the army."

The other people nodded with satisfaction when Zeng Shengwu said.

Look, the other hundred schools of thought are still not good, but we have to be proud of our Confucianism and our Confucian disciples. Anyway, the hundred schools of thought have been rubbed on the ground by Confucianism and disappeared, so we can say it no matter what.

"As for new Confucianism, it is actually not considered new Confucianism. It is a Confucianism that worships ancient times. Xunzi is also a wise man in Confucianism!"

Zeng Shengwu's words even meant the hearts of several ministers.

How can new Confucianism work? Can we ministers let us follow Li Zhi? How can we put our face? It’s different to worship the past. It’s okay for anyone to admire the past. With the strength of these people, the reputation of these people, and the old friends of these people, we will definitely be able to promote ourselves as an example of worshipping the past.

Li Zhi still went to play with mud. With this, people like him can become examples.

Zeng Shengwu's previous words gave me a step forward. The reason why the Han Dynasty was strong was that it abolished all schools of thought and respected Confucianism. If I wanted to be as strong as the Han Dynasty, I should respect Confucianism more.

However, we should not learn from Confucianism in Song, but from Confucianism in Han and Dong Zhongshu.

Zeng Shengwu didn't say anything thoroughly, just opened his head, but everyone understood what he meant. After saying this, he found the root of it. Shen Shixing stroked his beard and nodded with satisfaction.

"The words of Mr. Zeng Ge are all justified. Our Ming Dynasty should learn from the strong Han Dynasty, but not the weak Song Dynasty."

"Song Confucian scholars are corrupt and ignorant, and they are weak and should be abandoned." Speaking of this, Shen Shixing hugged and clasped his fists at the top: "My Holy Emperor of the Great Ming Dynasty is far superior to Emperor Wu of Han, but my Ming Dynasty is not as good as the Great Han Dynasty, why is that?"

"It is because the Song Confucians are corrupt and weak, and they are not as powerful as the Han Confucians."

"We should be the first to be clear and clear, learn from the Han Confucians, and abandon the Song Confucians."

Shen Shixing's words made the eyes of the four people present lit up, which was really a good idea. In this way, it would be enough to suppress Li Zhi's new Confucianism. Your new Confucianism is still under the banner of learning, but after all, it is not the Song Confucianism.

The Song Confucians are not good. If the Song Confucians are strong, why is the Song Dynasty so weak?

If you have to learn from the Han Confucian Confucianism, you will immediately take over the right to speak. As for what the Han Confucian Confucian is, you are not a little girl, you can calculate how you dress up like yourself.

After getting back the right to speak, with the strength of those of you, can't you still show the thoughts the emperor wants?

Li Zhi stayed there, and his talents were the mainstream, so they didn't believe that the emperor was not Li Zhi. If it really didn't work, then just take Li Zhi's thoughts and put them on Han Confucianism.

You should know that during the Han Dynasty, there were many Confucian schools and they fought with hundreds of schools of thought.

There are a lot of Confucian schools that have absorbed hundreds of schools of thought, and they can find the source. In this way, the classics of the ancestors have their origins, and things will be much easier. In addition, the implementation of the Grand Secretary, so officials will not have any psychological burden when they turn against each other.

Compared to Li Zhi, people like him have too much advantage and are not comparable at all.

At that time, the four of you will definitely be listed in the history books in panic, and maybe you can also get the title of the Fourth Bachelor of ZTE. The emperor agrees, and the people below praise it, which is a risk-free business.

Look at Dong Zhongshu, we should follow our ancestors, this is the right way.

As for what we have learned before, we just abandon it. What is the study of mind and principles, are not all Song Confucianism. We should respect ancient Confucianism, learn Han Confucianism, and sweep the Song Confucianism directly into the garbage dump.

Shen Shixing finished speaking, but didn't say anything, just looked at the other three people quietly.

Yu Youding followed Shen Shixing closely, so he smiled and said, "What Master Shen said is very much. We should open up the style of worshipping the ancient times for the Ming Dynasty and eliminate the corruption of the Confucians of Song Dynasty."

"How can we stand firm and stand firm in the throne of the Holy Emperor? We should set a precedent for the rejuvenation of the emperor."

Fang Fengshi sat there, and he felt that he had learned a lot. Since entering the cabinet, he has realized his shortcomings for the first time, which is far inferior to Shen Shixing.

No wonder Shen Shixing's position in the cabinet is so stable. He is deeply favored by the emperor. He is truly a famous scholar!

"I also think that the Ge Lao said very well. The Ge Lao set a precedent for the ancient faction, which was actually the rise of the Ming Dynasty. In the future, it will definitely be famous in history and become a famous prime minister of the revival of the Ming Dynasty." Zeng Shengwu flattered him.

At this time, Fang Fengshi felt that it would be too unsociable if he didn't say anything.

"Shen Ge Lao said so much. Shen Ge Lao set a precedent for the ancient faction and should be remembered by future generations. We are willing to follow the tail of the Ge Lao, for the people, for the Ming Dynasty, and not for the emperor to rejuvenate and prosper for the emperor." Fang Fengshi also threw his face aside.

Stroking his beard, Shen Shixing nodded with satisfaction: "Since that's the case, let's jointly submit the memorial!"

"In addition, please contact your disciples, students and classmates, and waving flags and shouting for us. Only in this way can we achieve success!"

"Don't worry, Master, I will do my best!"

After June, the weather became hotter and the rain became much more, which made Zhu Yijun feel relieved. Rain is a very important thing for farming countries.

Listening to the rumbling thunder, Zhu Yijun was in a good mood. Standing at the window of the hall and feeling the cool breeze blowing in, Zhu Yijun suddenly felt refreshed.

"Your Majesty, it's going to rain, so it's better to close the window!" Zhang Jing stood behind Zhu Yijun and said respectfully: "The wind and rain hurt the body, and if it is infected with wind and cold, it will be bad."

After looking at Zhang Jing, Zhu Yijun nodded: "Okay, close it!"

As the window closed, the thunder became less and the rain fell quickly, hitting the eaves and making crackling sounds. Zhu Yijun was in a good mood, but the outside room was not like this.

These days, as New Confucianism jumped around, the storm in the capital became even stronger.

Although Neo-Confucianism and Mind reacted slowly, they finally reacted. Neo-Confucianism began to fight back, denounced New Confucianism as heresy, and criticized it for its large-scale criticism, but also organized officials to write letters to impeach them.

The lineage of Xinxue is divided into two schools, one supports New Confucianism, and the other opposes.

The three factions fought in a difficult situation, and the lectures and debates were one after another, and even several fights occurred. However, the center was always silent, making people wonder what to do.

There are also many things that want to show their presence, which makes a lot of messy things.

New Confucianism is weak, after all, there are few people and short years. In addition, Li Zhi has insufficient reputation. Although Zhu Yijun's men are secretly instigating, they are still in decline.

If Zhu Yijun had not been allowed to support him, I am afraid that New Confucianism would have been suppressed.

Zhu Yijun was waiting, but he was waiting for the reaction of the central minister of the court. The central minister had no attitude, and no matter how loud the following was, it was useless. In this case, the memorials of the four major ministers in the cabinet finally entered the palace.

"Look at what you said!" Zhu Yijun picked up the memorial in front of him with a heavy face.

The wind and rain outside the window were still there, and Zhu Yijun was also waiting for the arrival of this moment in his heart.

The first memorial came from the Chief Minister of the Cabinet, Shen Shixing. The memorial was opened with the title of the memorial: Please correct the source and clear the source!

The memorial details the academic turmoil, criticized the academic turmoil, and asked the court to correct the source. Later, Shen Shixing criticized the Song Confucians with a large number of criticisms, taking the corrupt and weak Song Confucians as the starting point, and put the weak hats of the Song Dynasty on the Song Confucians.

Because of the incompetence of the Song Confucians and the weak Song Dynasty, the mountains and rivers fell, and the northern land fell into the Danxing. It was actually the greatest shame of the Central Plains dynasty after the Eastern Jin Dynasty crossed the Five Barbarians to invade China in the south. Then he slapped the Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang's flattery, supported the world with both hands, and reopened the Han family's sun, moon and sky.

Behind it, the Han Dynasty was the powerful, and Emperor Wu of Han swept across the six worlds and ended the eight deserts, which was blamed on the abolition of all schools of thought and respecting Confucianism.

Then we came to a conclusion that the reason why the Song Dynasty was weak was that the Song Confucians were corrupt and weak, and the reason why the Han Dynasty was strong was that the Han Confucians were strong and arrogant. When they entered, they became prime ministers and when they left, they became generals. Finally, they came to their own conclusions: they should respect the ancient times and learn from the Han Confucians.

Zhu Yijun looked at Shen Shixing's memorial and was speechless for a while. To be honest, he was shocked by Shen Shixing.

As a peacekeeper minister, Zhu Yijun's position on Shen Shixing is to be obedient, his characteristics are stable, and he can help him stabilize the court. However, Shen Shixing's performance this time was completely beyond Zhu Yijun's expectations.

Originally, Zhu Yijun planned to ask Shen Shixing and others to support New Confucianism, so that's enough. Unexpectedly, Shen Shixing gave himself a surprise! This is not bad, but too good.

Zhu Yijun saw Shen Shixing's proposal from this memorial, respecting the ancients and admiring the Han Confucians.

In this way, Zhu Yijun thought of a very famous movement in Europe, that is, the Renaissance. Although he was under the banner of reviving classical culture, he was promoting a new culture.

Zhu Yijun never expected that the good man Shen Shixing would actually use such a big move.
