Chapter 79 The fight started [Additional update for the leader of the alliance: The Simplest]
The emperor's will is simple.
Roughly speaking, the articles I write are intended articles.
Let everyone learn a little from themselves, but it is a matter of intention. The Wei Dynasty does not need to have an intention at the moment, so I will suppress it first, but do not deny my own talent.
Isn't this lying with open eyes?
Did the emperor read his own article?
Why is an article that is clearly about construction and development and advocating the establishment of industry turned into an article on purpose?
"It's impossible for the emperor not to read my articles. If he doesn't read the peerless articles, the emperor will be done with it."
"Since you have read my article, you should know my purpose. Can you change it to an opinion article? Is it to protect me?"
Soon, Xu Qingxiao thought of the reason.
Apart from this, Xu Qingxiao couldn't think of a second reason, unless the emperor was really blind.
But this is impossible.
"Has the fighting in the court reached this level? Even the emperor should be careful?"
Xu Qingxiao thought about it carefully.
Obviously the emperor is not a fool, so the purpose of announcing this decree is to protect himself.
The fighting in the court was very fierce. This was the first time that Xu Qingxiao felt it intuitively. Otherwise, with his own national security policy and a normal dynasty, the emperor would have come out with all kinds of bragging, and then started to carry out special measures.
Not doing so does not mean that you don't recognize yourself, but rather that you recognize yourself. However, because of the situation, you want to protect yourself first and wait until the time is right before taking action.
In an instant, Xu Qingxiao understood the cause and effect.
He was a smart man, and the Emperor of Wei was also a smart man. He even did not hesitate to use ideological articles to attract hatred and use external contradictions to resolve internal conflicts.
Apparently according to the empress's ideas, her future route has been planned.
Enter Beijing, become an official, and then start to discuss how to set up a bank, and then secretly go to set up the bank. When ready, start working directly. At that time, even if the civil and military officials in the court do not agree, it will not work.
The emperor has veto power.
But why not do it now, because you are afraid that in the early preparation stage, people will start to make things difficult for you.
It’s not impossible for you to have a veto right now, but what will happen next?
It's impossible for you to be a rogue all the time, right?
In fact, the point is that the imperial power is not stable enough.
If this is solid enough, look at Zhu Taizu. If you don't accept it, you'll be killed. If you oppose it, you'll be killed. Not only do you have to agree with it, you also have to be extremely happy, otherwise you'll be killed too.
"After the Seventh Northern Expedition, a woman became emperor. This is the consequence."
Xu Qingxiao roughly understood some things. He understood that the emperor of the dynasty could be understood or understood, but he was still unhappy.
Intentional article.
This is like roasting yourself on the fire.
Since ancient times, the most heated debate among literati has been the issue of intention.
conception.
A gentleman makes up his mind.
Everyone believes in the words of a certain sage and regards it as their ultimate ideal, and works hard for decades. Then you suddenly come up with a new intention. If you continue the sage's intention, that's fine.
But if you overturn this idea, what will people think?
This is just like in the previous life, you told a man that there is no truth in this world.
Faith collapses.
Therefore, the dispute over ideas is too involved in the circle of literati.
No, not too big, but a devastating argument.
So if you want to resolve this kind of trouble, you must respect Zhu Sheng's will.
Five generations of saints.
The first generation of saints, who established the will of the common people, in the darkest era
The second generation of saints established Confucianism and Taoism and served as role models for all generations.
The third generation of saints established the meaning of ritual and music, the gentleman's ritual and music.
The fourth sage is the one who establishes the idea of a king and his ministers.
The fifth saint is a gentleman who upholds the principles of heaven and destroys human desires and overcomes selfish desires.
In fact, none of these five saints did anything wrong.
Otherwise sanctification is impossible.
Their ideas are well-intentioned, but they can't stand being added to by future generations.
They all think they have figured out the sage's meaning, and then impose their own ideas into it to become the sage's meaning.
Once or twice, the saint will take the blame.
It’s like preserving the natural principles and extinguishing human desires. Although the words are a bit vague, what is their meaning and starting point?
Desires are endless. We gentlemen and Confucian scholars should restrain our desires. This is the true gentleman. We cannot act randomly and allow our desires to expand endlessly.
What became then?
You cannot have desires, it is not good to have desires.
They can even be used to attack each other. If you ate an extra egg today, you do not respect the saints and you are not worthy of being a scholar.
This kind of thing doesn't happen.
Don’t be dissatisfied, because you have to over-understand the saint’s words. After all, you can’t resurrect the saint.
You can't explain it clearly, so people insist on messing with you.
So Xu Qingxiao doesn't like Zhu Sheng's ideas very much. He respects Zhu Sheng. Human saints naturally have an unparalleled aura. They may have shortcomings, but how many people in ancient and modern times can become saints?
Xu Qingxiao prefers another idea.
The unity of knowledge and action by Wang Yangming and Wang Shouren.
This is an idea recognized by Xu Qingxiao, and both are essentially the same.
Overcome selfish desires.
But it is much better than Zhu Sheng's meaning. No matter whether Zhu Sheng's meaning is added to by later generations or not, it still cannot change its strict meaning, which is a bit contrary to human reason.
Wang Shouren's unity of knowledge and action is very free. There is no need to disguise himself and release his own nature.
But Xu Qingxiao didn't dare to say these things.
There is no other reason.
Based on my current situation, if I really dare to promote this idea, then all the Confucian scholars in the world will make trouble for me.
Ninety percent of literati regard themselves as their enemies.
It would be better to wait until he slowly grows up, holds great power in the DPRK, has prestige and moral character, and then promotes this idea.
This may still have the same effect, but at least no one will come to trouble you.
Xu Qingxiao looked at the decree and pondered.
At this moment, the delicious food arrived.
Plates of steaming dishes were placed on the stone table. Xu Qingxiao came back to her senses, didn't say anything, picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
There is no point in just eating vegetables, so I asked a servant to bring a bucket of rice and prepare a few kilograms of meat.
Just like that, Xu Qingxiao was thinking about the next thing while eating.
The first thing was the intention, not a word was mentioned.
It doesn’t matter what the purpose of coming to Tianming Academy is, it’s okay to make friends, but if you want to set a trap for yourself, that’s not okay.
Don't mention your intention, just let them say nothing.
Even if I wait until I enter Beijing, I won't say anything. The discussion will be discussed and the scolding will be scolded. As long as I don't step out to set the pace, basically I won't cause any big trouble.
After deciding on this idea.
Xu Qingxiao's food tasted even more delicious.
It just scared Li Xin on the side.
Xu Qingxiao ate more than half a bucket of rice, plus three or four kilograms of meat, and four or five plates of dishes. This amount of food was as much as he had in seven or eight days.
"Brother Xu, I really didn't expect you to eat so much."
Li Xin clicked his tongue.
"This is what people who practice martial arts are like."
"By the way, dear brother, if you don't mind these days, I plan to stay here for a few days. If you bother me, forget it."
Xu Qingxiao smiled and proposed to stay here for a few days.
After all, with the arrival of people from Tianming Academy, the eyes of everyone in Nanyu Mansion fell on him. Instead of going out to cause trouble, it would be better to rest at Li Xin's house for a few days.
"Brother Xu, these words are serious. It's an honor for you to come and live in this humble house. I'm going to ask someone to prepare the room now."
Li Xin was excited. He was naturally very happy to have Xu Qingxiao stay at his house. He could brag about it when meeting other friends in the future. I have a very good relationship with Xu Dacai, and they always stayed at my house in Nanyu Mansion.
How honorable is this?
Soon, after Xu Qingxiao had finished her meal, Li Xin asked people to prepare an upper room for Xu Qingxiao, and arranged for four maids to follow Xu Qingxiao and take care of her daily life.
Xu Qingxiao took it easy and asked the maids to prepare bath water, intending to clean up first.
These days are full of dust. Although warriors have been promoted, they still need to pay attention to personal hygiene.
Half an hour later.
Xu Qingxiao took a comfortable hot bath. Li Xin was also considerate and bought a set of clothes for herself. The fabrics were made of high-quality silk. A set of such clothes cost at least five taels of silver.
It's really the benefits of fame.
You can eat and drink for free and buy a set of clothes for free. The ancients were so kind-hearted.
After changing into clothes.
Xu Qingxiao doesn't have anything important to do next, she just plans to calm down and read some books.
But at this moment, Li Xin came over in a hurry, looking like he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Brother Xu, something big happened."
Li Xin spoke, making Xu Qingxiao a little confused.
It only took half an hour before and after.
What happened?
What else happened? Couldn't you just tell me?
"what happened?"
Xu Qingxiao was a little curious.
"A fight has begun. Our gang of officials in Nanyu Mansion are fighting with the students of Tianming Academy because of you."
Li Xin really didn't know how to speak.
"A fight started?"
"Why do officials fight with scholars?"
"Also, why is it for me?"
The more Xu Qingxiao listened, the more confused she became. She didn't ask the Nanyu Mansion officials to beat anyone, so there was no need to pass the blame on me, right?
You are being unreasonable.
"Brother Xu, when you came here before, you were covered in dust and dirt."
"Right now, there are rumors outside that the students from Tianming Academy, seeing how arrogant you were, found you out of anger and beat you up."
"The people in Nanyu Mansion are spreading rumors, each one more angry than the next, saying that Nanyu Mansion has finally produced a great talent, and was targeted by people from Tianming Academy, bullying Nanyu Mansion for its incompetence."
"Those detectives suddenly couldn't control their tempers, especially two of them, who have some relationship with you, and called over half of the detectives in the entire Nanyu Mansion."
"When I see a student from Tianming Academy, I beat him up, and I beat him very fiercely."
"But I heard from the news that the students at Tianming Academy also have backbone. Not only did they not explain when they were beaten, but they also shouted that you were behind it. They are not gentlemen, but just villains."
"As a result, I was beaten even worse."
Li Xin really didn't know what to say.
The whole thing was a complete mistake, mainly because Xu Qingxiao's prestige was too high.
After all, it stands to reason that the matter is none of your business, just hang it up and the scholar was beaten. If you don't report it to the official, these officials will not take action.
Perhaps Qingxiao's prestige is too great, and he has been praised as the number one prodigy in the world, plus he has been suppressed by Tianming Mansion these years.
Xu Qingxiao finally came out, but it turned out that Xu Qingxiao had been beaten. Now Nanyu Mansion is not allowed to explode?
From ordinary people to scholars, everyone was shocked when they heard the news.
The rumors were so horrifying, and Xu Qingxiao had indeed been in a dusty road, completely different from her usual image, so it naturally made people think of being beaten.
As a result, the fuse was lit, and the first to bear the brunt were the official officials. The two brothers Yang Bao and Yang Hu took the lead to lead the people there, followed closely by the scholars from Nanyu Mansion. They now regarded Xu Qingxiao as their idol in life. How could they endure Xu Qingxiao being beaten?
Then there are the people in the city. They are already disgusted with the students of Tianming Academy, but now you dare to bully us, the scholars of Nanyu Prefecture?
Do you really think that we Nanyu people are sick cats?
So this matter suddenly caused a fuss, and it became a big fuss.
In addition, these Tianming Academy students were all unconvinced. They were indeed unconvinced by Xu Qingxiao. Although they were reprimanded by Wan Anguo, they were still unconvinced.
As a result, he was beaten even worse.
"this"
Xu Qingxiao fell silent.
Isn't it just that the clothes are a little dirty? This can also cause trouble?
Are these students from Tianming Academy so hated?
Xu Qingxiao really didn't expect that she would be beaten because she was in a hurry and soiled her clothes.
As a result, students from Tianming Academy were chased and beaten.
This is a bit outrageous.
"So what should we do now?"
Xu Qingxiao frowned. Beating up a scholar was not a trivial matter. He might be facing a lawsuit. Brothers Yang Bao and Yang Hu were a little too reckless.
"My father has sent troops to suppress it. In theory, everything should be fine."
"I've asked Wang Ru to explain, but some people are going to be unlucky."
"Hitting a scholar is no joke. You will go to jail, no matter what the reason."
"Brother Xu, do you know the two leaders here?"
Li Xin asked.
"Your name is Yang Bao and Yang Hu, right? If it's them, I do know them and have a good relationship with them."
"Brother Li, what do you think of this? I will write a letter now and you can help me send it to the old dean of Tianming Academy."
"Brother Yu can't come forward in this matter, otherwise it will become more and more troublesome."
Xu Qingxiao spoke.
I definitely can't do this myself.
Although Yang Bao and Yang Hu were reckless, their starting point was to help themselves. Xu Qingxiao knew that the people of Nanyu Mansion also wanted to help themselves.
Although this was a misunderstanding, if I came forward and apologized to the people at Tianming Academy, I'm afraid it would arouse resentment.
The students from Tianming Academy are not good people. They come to look for me for no reason. In the final analysis, they just want to step on me and get the upper hand. They deserve to be beaten.
But the old dean of Tianming Academy was different. He was a real Confucian, so there was no problem for Xu Qingxiao to write an apology.
It's not good to come forward if you don't come forward, it will make everyone feel bad, and it's even worse if the situation continues to be rigid. If it provokes a rift between the two governments, it will be a sin.
"Okay, I'll do it right away."
Li Xin agreed immediately.
Xu Qingxiao didn't waste any time, immediately entered the room, unfolded a piece of letter paper, and Li Xin was studying ink at the side.
After the ink came out, Xu Qingxiao started writing directly.
That's roughly what it means.
Explain the matter clearly, hoping that the other party will understand, forgive the common people, and also forgive these officials. I have been reading books about sages during this period, and I don’t want to come forward. It’s not that I don’t want to meet. When the new building in Nanyu is built in a few days, I will definitely meet in person.
Apologize.
After finishing writing, Xu Qingxiao put it in an envelope and asked Li Xin to help deliver it.
At the same time, Li Xin was asked to tell the governor not to punish these officials as much as possible.
Li Xin nodded, took the letter and left, looking very anxious.
Then, Xu Qingxiao felt helpless as she watched Li Xin leave.
No matter how much I thought about it, I never imagined that something like this would happen.
It seems that I still have to pay attention to my image in the future to avoid being misunderstood.
That's it.
Until midnight.
Xu Qingxiao waited quietly in the courtyard.
When something like this happened, he had no intention of reading. He wanted to find someone to go out and inquire about the news, but he was also afraid that other rumors would spread, so he could only wait quietly.
Finally, two seconds later.
Li Xin is back.
"Brother Xu."
"Brother Xu."
Li Xin trotted all the way, panting a little.
"No rush, let's drink some water first and then talk."
Xu Qingxiao poured Li Xin a cup of tea.
"Need not."
"The matter has been resolved, but the trouble has not. Twelve students from Tianming Academy were injured, two of them were seriously injured. Fortunately, no one was killed."
"Twenty people were arrested, twelve police officers, five scholars, and three ordinary people."
"Those who have been arrested are all the founders. They will probably face lawsuits. Injuring a scholar is not a trivial matter."
Li Xin frowned a little.
"Can't your father be saved?"
Xu Qingxiao was curious.
"If we can't save it, it will harm the world and hurt the scholars. We can't save this matter, so we can only mediate it. My father is also in trouble. There is a sixth-grade scholar here, so he doesn't dare to bend the law for personal gain."
Li Xin shook his head directly, and then continued to speak.
"In the laws of the Wei Dynasty, if you hurt someone without any reason, you will be detained for three years. If you are a scholar, you will be punished by one level, at least ten years."
"If they don't let go, they will be imprisoned for ten years."
These words made Xu Qingxiao frown even more.
"Did you give the letter to Wanrushi?"
Xu Qingxiao asked.
"I gave it, but Wan Rushi seems to be a little angry."
"I just received the letter and didn't say a word."
Li Xin's answer made Xu Qingxiao feel even more troubled.
Causing trouble for no reason is the downside of fame.
At that moment, Xu Qingxiao didn't speak anymore, but walked back and forth in the yard, thinking about a solution.
Finally, Xu Qingxiao took a deep breath, looked at Li Xin and said.
"Walk."
As soon as he said this, Li Xin was a little curious.
"Where to go?"
"Look for someone from Tianming Academy. I'll go over in person to apologize and see if they can make adjustments."
Xu Qingxiao said.
"Brother Xu, they are angry right now. If they go over now, I'm afraid they won't be able to please them."
"Besides, this matter has nothing to do with you. My father's intention is to calm down their anger first, detain these people for a period of time, and then slowly resolve the matter after the matter has passed."
Li Xin stopped Xu Qingxiao.
When people are angry now, they used to scold them, and it was not you who caused the incident, so there is no need for this.
However, Xu Qingxiao shook her head, glanced at the moonlight, and then looked at Li Xindao.
"This matter happened because of me. If I don't care about it, I will be a gentleman in vain."
"If Brother Xian feels that there is some trouble, please let Brother Yu go alone."
Xu Qingxiao meant what she said. She didn't want Li Xin to continue to get involved, so as not to be hated by others.
"Brother, what are you talking about? Since my brother has a sincere heart, I, the foolish brother, will accompany him."
"The worst thing is that I'll just get scolded. Let's go."
Li Xin was not afraid of this, but mainly felt that Xu Qingxiao had a distinguished status. If he took the initiative to apologize in the past, wouldn't he be downgrading his status?
But after hearing Xu Qingxiao's words, he inexplicably felt that Xu Qingxiao was worthy of being a gentleman.
Worth a deep friendship.
Just like that, the two of them left Li's Mansion and walked outside.
