Although Qu Shichun is extreme, he is not an unreasonable person. Although the "treacherous" Wen Tiren has squeezed out the old leader Zhou Yanru, several bachelors in the cabinet are still from the Donglin Party, and there are also many important officials in the six departments.
They are members of the Donglin Party. It is definitely unreasonable and ridiculous to say that they hold power. According to what I said before, these people are also honest and upright gentlemen in the world, and they naturally deserve to be "real men".
"If they can't be worthy of it, who else in the world can be worthy of being a "real man"?"
Thinking of this, Qu Shichun couldn't help but nodded and said: "All the princes in the court should be the great men in the world."
"What is the power in the hands of a man used for?" Cao Huachun then asked, not giving Qu Shichu any time to think.
Before Qu Shichun could think too much, he puffed up his chest proudly and blurted out: "Of course I will report it to the king and the people." [
"What a great man to report to the king to serve the people!" Cao Huachun praised loudly, but then changed the topic and said: "Since the people in the court are all the men who reported to the king to serve the people as you said, why are you like this?
Now the world is full of wars and the people are displaced. Is it possible that these men, instead of reporting to the king to benefit the people, are doing harm to the country and the people, harming the public and enriching themselves, so that the country is not at peace?"
Qu Shishu didn't expect that the other party would be so condescending. He became anxious and retorted without thinking too much: "The rising flames of war are just thieves who are uneasy about their duties. What does it have to do with the gentlemen of the court?"
Hearing this, Cao Huachun was greatly surprised. He opened his mouth wide and said with surprise: "As far as we know, these wars are actually caused by people taking desperate risks in order to survive. But if there are people who stutter, how can they take risks and take risks?"
Wearing decapitated heads to fight against the officers and soldiers? This uneasy duty makes us neither listen nor believe it! If it were you who had enough to eat, all your wives and children at home would starve to death, so I'm afraid you would take the risk and participate in it.
What a reversal. If that's the case, do we still say that you are a person who is uneasy about your duty? Ridiculous, ridiculous, really ridiculous!" The more Cao Huachun thought about it, the funnier he became, and he even felt hateful towards everyone in Fushe, secretly thinking, no wonder the emperor
To say that Dong Lin cannot be trusted, everyone in this generation is indeed a fool who cannot be used. In comparison, Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng are much more pragmatic, at least they are more able to do things than these scholars who know nothing.
Being told this, Qu Shishu was furious and said in a hurry and angrily: "It would be better to just stay at home and starve to death if you don't have enough food. The court will always praise them for their kindness and obedience in the future, but now they come out to rebel and add trouble to the court and the government."
With all these troubles, why aren’t these people uneasy about their duties? They deserve to die!"
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Pu and Qian Qianyi suddenly knew that something was wrong. Even everyone in the audience frowned. Qu Shichun's words were obviously unintentional. No matter how despicable the people's lives are, as scholars, they can't
Saying that he deserves to die, let alone saying that he wants people to starve to death at home?
Liu Rushi over there was also startled when he heard this, and raised his eyebrows. He thought that this person on the stage was really hard-hearted. He actually thought that it was good for people to starve to death at home. This was simply the most ridiculous thing in the world. I don’t know whether Mr.
How can we recruit such disciples? If Fushe has people like this from top to bottom, then Fushe will not be established.
"We were really stunned when we heard what you said." Cao Huachun was also horrified. He burst out laughing in anger, pointed at Zhang Pu and Qian Qianyi, and shouted: "The people don't care whether they live or die, they only fight for power. This
Is this the purpose of your restoration of society?" His voice was already sharp, and this drink was even more harsh.
"Ahem"
Qian Qianyi responded with his words, complaining that Qu Shichun shouldn't have said such nonsense. He knew that it was useless to say anything. The other party was obviously a member of the inner court from the capital. Today's conversation has reached the ears of the emperor.
It would be very detrimental to the restoration of the society. How could he dare to show off his strength and argue with the other party again? If he made the other party dissatisfied, I am afraid that his plan to make a comeback through the restoration of the society would be completely in vain.
Qian Qianyi had already retreated for the sake of his family's future plans. He said that this restoration of society was just a tool for Qian Mu Lao to return to the court. How could he use it as a tool to harm his master's family.
Zhang Cai wanted to come out to argue, but Zhang Pu didn't move, so he couldn't speak first.
Zhang Pu is also very dissatisfied with Qu Shichun's nonsense, but the man in front of him is here to destroy his own platform. How can he be allowed to be arrogant in front of three thousand scholars, let alone his original intention of restoring society and advocating for it?
Let him slander the Lords of Lin and Zhongzhong and turn this grand event of restoring the society into a joke. He stood up again and raised his voice: "The initiative to restore the society is a grand event for the world's righteous people, and the purpose of our society is known to the world, so let him
You are not allowed to distort it wantonly! Moreover, the current "chaos" in the world is also caused by deep-seated evils. Today, our country is suffering from internal and external troubles. There are Eastern invaders outside and bandits wreaking havoc inside. The so-called freezing of three feet does not last in a day.
When investigated, it should be caused by Emperor Shenzong competing for profits with the people, so how can it be blamed on the princes in the court?"
Hearing this, Qu Shichun also reacted, "Exactly, I was almost blinded by you. How can a man in the court take the blame for the past? You are clearly confusing right and wrong, talking nonsense, and indiscriminately inflicting the mistakes of the past on the present."
, His heart is worthy of death!”
"Confusing right and wrong? How can he be punished?!" Cao Huachun's face changed, he snorted angrily, and said: "If the Dukes of Donglin you call are really men, they will share the king's worries and save the people from dire straits.
Instead of fighting for power and profit in the court, how can you be called a man by doing this? And you, who do not want to make progress, only know how to be limited to the family, and are more focused on seeking benefits for your own family. You are making noises about state affairs in Jiangnan and serving the court.
Those who are fighting for power and profit in China are waving flags and shouting, thinking that they are echoing, but according to our opinion, you people are not worthy of being called gentlemen at all, let alone the children of saints. You are clearly a bunch of big thieves in the country!"
The words "big thief of the country" were so strong and powerful that everyone on the stage changed their color. Even Qian Qianyi was so angry that he was shaking all over. However, among the thousands of people on stage and off stage, one person jumped out to refute it.
Some felt that what the other party said was unreasonable and they felt that they did not have enough status to come forward, but most people were still shocked by these words and were horrified in their hearts. They actually thought that what the other party said was right or wrong.
Cao Huachun's words shocked everyone in Fushe. They felt proud and sneered. He was even more determined to eradicate Fushe. He didn't want to stay any longer, so he turned around and left, but he heard the angry shouts of a young man in his ears.
Voice: "You make it easy for me to report to the king to benefit the people, but you don't know how to report to the king to benefit the people if you have the power in your hands?"
The speaker was none other than Chen Zilong, who was known as a giant in the society. Seeing that the middle-aged scribe was speaking so brazenly while the master and others were speechless, he couldn't help but feel like fighting. He stepped forward and said,
He also pointed at Cao Huachun with the same sneer on his lips, "Looking at you like this, it is impossible to enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister. Can you still raise a brigade of elite soldiers to defend the country from insults and quell chaos? If not, how can you do it?
Do you want to be an official of a local herdsman? If you can't do both, you are just a person who is trying to make a name for himself through empty words. Hmm, if we are the big thieves of the country, I'm afraid you are the little thieves of the country.
You can’t even call it big!”
"Haha, he looks so neither male nor female. I'm afraid he can't even lift a knife. I don't know how many words he knows. Maybe he can't even read the common people's petitions?"
"That's right, this generation is clearly a young man who wants to make a name for himself through our restoration of society. We must not fall into his scheme."[
"Stop instigating him anymore and send him away as soon as possible so as not to delay our grand event!"
""
With Chen Zilong coming forward, the people in Fushe who had been silent just now suddenly became active again, scolding Cao Huachun with every word.
Cao Huachun, on the other hand, didn't seem to hear it, and he didn't want to talk to these Baiyiyong scholars any more. He said what needed to be said, and reminded what needed to be reminded. If Zhang Pu and others still didn't understand,
He could only make up his mind to eradicate this Fushe, and then destroy the Xi Academy, which was regarded as a holy place by the Donglin Party members, in one fell swoop.
"We can do it, but we are just talking. We are just Xiaoxiao, and we don't need you to chase us away. How about we just leave now?"
Cao Huachun laughed and raised his feet to leave, but he heard someone in the audience shouting: "The reason why the country is in ruins now is not because our Ming Dynasty has no good generals who dare to fight. If those Wu people dare to fight, the Donglu can only jump over the beam."
Clown, how can you keep bandits entering the border? The reason why thieves are spreading is because those warriors have not fulfilled their responsibilities. They only want to make a fortune and save their lives, and do not move forward when trouble comes. This is why thieves are wreaking havoc. According to me, I want peace in the world.
It is not difficult. As long as the princes in power expel all the hiding traitors from the court and entrust me with the important task of monitoring those warriors in the army, each of those warriors will definitely die to serve. It will not take more than a year.
, the world will be at peace!"
The people around him all agreed and said that my brother is very wise. After hearing this, Cao Huachun let out a disdainful sound and did not want to pay attention to such ridiculous words anymore. However, after walking for a few steps, he couldn't help but stop and turned around to speak to him.
The man said: "How come our Ming Dynasty doesn't have good generals who dare to fight? According to what we said, Shi Dayong, the deputy general of Jinzhou, severely wounded the Eastern captives with thousands of remaining troops, and made a great contribution to beheading nearly 10,000 people. Later, he led 800 soldiers to the south to quell the enemy.
In the "Rebellion" of Denglai, 5,000 rebels were wiped out in the Battle of Shahe, and their general Chen Youyou was beheaded. In the battle of Xiaoguantun, the main force of the rebels was severely damaged, making them afraid to look north. Such a good general, who started in the army,
You think of yourself as a noble man and a lowly military man, just a crude warrior and don't take it seriously at all. But in our eyes, he is the real man of our Ming Dynasty. Compared with the princes in the court, he is much stronger than you.
These armchair warriors are probably hundreds of times, a thousand times more powerful. It would be a great blessing for our Ming Dynasty to have a few more of these good generals. Like you, the fewer the better, it’s best not to have any at all!”
"It's nonsense, it's nonsense! We scholars are the backbone of the country, how can those warriors be stronger than us! If there are no scholars like us in this world, I am afraid that the world will be in chaos immediately and the country will not be a country." Then.
The scholar who spoke was so angry that his cheeks were bulging high. He waved his fists and wanted to jump on the stage to beat Cao Huachun. But when he saw the other party's followers who were like wolves and tigers, his desire to beat Cao Huachun could only be buried deep in his heart.
Bottom of my heart.
The words of Cao Huachun, a scholar who was not as good as a martial artist, made all the people in Fushe unanimously indignant, and everyone started making noises as if they had been beaten to death.
"Alas! The greatest failure is greater than not knowing. It's useless to tell you this. It's a waste of time. It's getting late, so I should find a restaurant to feed myself. Say goodbye!"
Cao Huachun knew that no matter what he said, he did not look at the angry scholars. He bowed his hands to Zhang Pu, Qian Qianyi and the others, and walked away with a few followers. On the way, no one from Fushe dared to stop them, so they could only let them go.
Let them leave. Chen Zilong and Yu Lianhe actually wanted to keep him, but Zhang Pu and the others didn't say anything. How could they dare to stay? Moreover, Huqiu didn't belong to Fushe's family, so how could they force him to stay.
"Mr. Mu, how will this end?" Zhang Cai was furious when a grand event was disrupted like this.
Qian Qianyi gave a bitter smile, sighed and said nothing. The two of them looked at Zhang Pu at the same time, only to find Zhang Pu standing there motionless.
After Cao Huachun left, Zhang Pu felt a heavy blow to the chest like a big iron vertebra. Suddenly, he could hardly breathe and felt abnormal chest tightness. He stared at Cao Huachun in a daze as he walked away, thinking that this man did not know his history or knowledge.
It's true to his true appearance, it's weird to see such a dragon without seeing its end, but the words he said were very lofty and far-reaching, as if he was standing on the top of a very high mountain and looking down, with his mind having its own ravines but also ravines.
, it was so unexpected and unimaginable that I couldn’t help but be stunned for a long time, with countless thoughts running through my mind. I thought about how I had spent so much effort to bring Kuangshe, Duanshe, Jishe, Yishe, Chaoshe, Zhuangshe, Zhishe, Yingshe, etc.
He merged with other societies and established Fushe. He thought it was an immortal cause of superior sages, and he was praised by many people in the world. Those detractors only attacked him by forming factions, and they approved of it in their hearts. Unexpectedly, they devalued him as worthless. What if
As word spreads about this amazing feat, one of the old leaders will be disappointed, and the other will be looked down upon by the scholars all over the world. From now on, I am afraid that I will only be at the mercy of others. I am afraid that ordering the scholars to govern the government from afar will be just empty talk, let alone anything.
A great achievement? Immediately, I felt that the success was in vain and the hegemony was in vain. However, in the end, I couldn't accept it and shouted loudly:
"I, Zhang Pude Neng, am favored by the public and the general leader of the society, just to do something unprecedented with everyone. I don't want to ask Xiao Xiaoqi to come to the door today, saying that I can't wait for that person who can't read."
The martial artist..."
Suddenly, my heart felt sour, and my blood surged up. With a whoosh, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and my body fell straight back. The audience exclaimed, and there was chaos. Qian Qianyi, Zhang Cai, Qu Shishu and the others
They were all shocked and turned pale. They came forward to surround Zhang Pu one after another, calling the doctor the doctor, and beating their backs. For a while, there was a lot of noise on and off the stage, and there was no trace of a grand event. There was a panic.
In the "chaos", a few pieces were poured out on the thrones of several Donglin seniors, but no one could care about it at this moment.
There were too many people, and Chen Zilong couldn't intervene, so he had to squeeze under the stage. Seeing Liu Rushi still sitting there, he squeezed past, preparing to ask her to find a place to rest first.
However, Liu Rushi shook her head and said that her husband was in serious danger, how could she leave. Chen Zilong could not persuade her, so he asked her not to wander around. After the crowd dispersed, he took her to see her husband. His words were full of emotions.
Lonely, I feel very resentful and resentful, and I feel very unconvinced when I think about it.
Liu Rushi nodded in agreement and suddenly asked him: "Is Shi Dayong really a real man in the world as this man said?"
Author's note: Qu Shichun, He Tengjiao, and Shi Kefa are the so-called "Three Heroes of the Southern Ming Dynasty". However, the demise of the Southern Ming Dynasty was attributed to the efforts of three people. Here, one or two of them are described for foreshadowing.
The person who wanted the people to starve to death at home and not come out to cause trouble to the government was Hou Xun, the censor. Here he is placed on Qu Shichu because the two are no different and can represent most of the gentlemen in Donglin and Fushe.[
