Qin Song found several restaurants that met Yunxi's requirements with extremely high efficiency, or some suitable chefs. One of them was a spy from Jinyiwei himself. When Jinyiwei was refrigerated by Zhu Yuanzhang, he concentrated on being his own cook.
Now being dug out by Qin Song is equivalent to continuing to be a spy.
Yunxi ordered the use of lottery to allocate public rental housing. This is the most fair, and because the public rental housing is originally divided into areas according to grade, no one will have any resentment. Of course, the public rental housing of the fourth and fifth grades is better than that of the sixth and seventh grades.
The high-grade ones are better, and the sixth- and seventh-grade ones are better than the top-grade ones.
Later, another incident that aroused the emotions of civil servants happened, that is, "Records of Taizu".
As for the beautification of Zhu Yuanzhang in "Records of Taizu", because this is human nature, and Yunxi's beautification was not too serious, the civil servants chose to ignore it; but Yunxi had just compiled "Records of Taizu"
At that time, the actual host at that time was still Chen Xingshan, and it was already certain that a few comments about Zhu Yuanzhang aroused resentment among civil servants.
That's the paragraph: "Taizong, with his wisdom and martial arts, had the ambition to help the world and bring peace to the people. He took advantage of the opportunity and followed the heroes, fought the chaos and destroyed the strong. In fifteen years, he became an emperor. He rose up as a commoner and laid a foundation for Haiyu. The three emperors will not
That’s what it is! He can be courteous to the Confucian scholars, examine the etiquette and determine the music, reveal the meaning of the scriptures, respect the true learning, add favor to the country, and clarify the administration of officials.”
"In the name of the harem, the internal governance was purged, eunuchs were prohibited from intervening in government, the five government offices and six ministries maintained their positions, and guards were stationed in the fields. There were enough troops and food. Wu Ding was in trouble, Wen brought peace, and Taizu was responsible for it. As for the Ya Shang Zhi Jie,
I heard that Cai Ziying returned to the north. In his later years, he was worried about the people and spent tens of thousands on river and pond weirs a year to benefit farmers and mulberry trees and prepare for drought. This was beyond the reach of the Han, Tang, and Song dynasties! No one can compare with him.
"
This paragraph is probably the comment about Zhu Yuanzhang in the "History of the Ming Dynasty" later compiled by the Manchu Qing Dynasty. After reading the "History of the Ming Dynasty" in his previous life, Yunxi combined Zhu Yuanzhang's comment with the first few sentences of Zhu Di's comment, which is: "Young Emperor Wenhuang was practicing military training. According to Youyan
I have memorized these sentences in a place with a beautiful appearance, but the Jianwen is weak, the long-term drive is introverted, and the world is on the verge of reaching the world.
Yunxi deleted the negative comments in Zhu Yuanzhang's comments and made slight changes to form the current comments about Zhu Yuanzhang.
What caused a collective backlash among civil servants were these few comments he changed: "It is unprecedented after the Three Emperors!", "It is unprecedented among the emperors of the Han, Tang, and Song Dynasties! No one can compare it."
The civil servants generally thought that these few words of praise were too much, so they all wrote articles to impeach Xie Jin for going too far in flattering him. Although they didn't mean it that way, that's what they meant.
In fact, the civil servants didn't know that even if these sentences were not said by Yunxi, they were written by Xie Jin under his instruction. In short, they are inseparable from Yunxi.
But since Yunxi was not in the open, he could not remonstrate with Yunxi, but could only impeach Xie Jin. Moreover, impeaching Xie Jin also had a function, which was to avoid direct conflict with the emperor, so that Yunxi would not break his face and persist to the end.
But Yunxi couldn't understand their painstaking efforts, and even if he could understand it, he wouldn't accept it. He had decided to be 'shameless' to the end, so if all such tricks were ignored, he would do whatever he had to do.
And Yunxi also had another idea: They impeached him like this because he was a little harsh on Liu Rongjie a few days ago. The civil servants felt that Yunxi's actions were inappropriate.
But because Liu Rongjie did indeed make a mistake, the civil servants could not keep entangled in that matter, so they found another target to attack, trying to force Yunxi to make concessions and expand the rights of the civil servant group, or to gain their own reputation.
.
Therefore, Yunxi will not give in.
Yunxi didn't do nothing. He also made some counterattacks against the impeachment content of the civil officials. For example, the sentence "Three Emperors will never exist in the future" was clarified to mean that Zhu Yuanzhang was the only emperor after the Three Emperors who came from a poor family.
, even Liu Bang was born as a pavilion chief, and was later named the King of Han by the Righteous Emperor Xiong Xin, and then became the emperor. However, the Taizu of this dynasty rose directly from the poor to the emperor, so it is said that "Three Emperors have never existed since".
The phrase "beyond the achievements of the Han, Tang, and Song dynasties" was also clarified to refer to driving the Mongols out of the Central Plains. Although the Han Dynasty defeated the Huns miserably, the Huns did not occupy the Central Plains at that time.
; The Tang Empire was directly a country after the fusion of Han people and Xianbei people; in the Song Dynasty, foreign offensive wars were rarely won after Song Taizong. So from this point of view, Zhu Yuanzhang was unmatched by the kings of the Han, Tang, and Song Dynasties.
'It's not an error either.
So the final focus of the debate was the sentence "Who can compare with me?" Although there was no punctuation mark at the time, these words did not match the words before and after it. It was just a single sentence with a clear meaning and nothing to argue with.
.
This sentence means that those who support Yunxi or Zhu Yuanzhang the most do not dare to insist that it must be right. After all, there have been too many emperors throughout the ages. Even if they can't compare to Zhu Yuanzhang in a single achievement, the situation is different. What can be said
Too much.
Yunxi prepared some words, but they were not suitable for spreading gossip, so he never said them.
Yunxi did not express his position here, and finally some among the civil servants could not sit still. One day in the morning court, Jujing, who was still working as the censor, said: "Your Majesty, a few days ago, I sent a letter to impeach Xie Jin. Has your Majesty ever been punished?
?”
Yunxi secretly said: "Here it comes!" and then said: "I received it, but the court was busy with government affairs, so I didn't look at it carefully. Ju Yushi wanted to talk to me."
Anyone who is familiar with Yunxi knows that Yunxi has come with bad intentions. Because usually Yunxi is addressed as "Qing" or "Aiqing". This time, it is not a good thing to directly address the official by his official name.
However, Ju Jing did not pay attention, and explained the matter again, and finally said: "Your Majesty, although the Taizu of this dynasty saved the people and made great achievements, this sentence is too much praise. Your Majesty should delete this sentence,
And he scolded Jie Zhongshu."
Yunxi narrowed his eyes, but quickly opened them wide. He said: "Since Ju Yushi thinks this sentence is inappropriate, he thinks that the achievements of the Emperor of China are greater than those of Emperor Taizu. Then
Please ask Ju Yushi to name the emperor who you think is more meritorious than Emperor Taizu, and let the ministers present judge."
As soon as Yunxi said these words, Ju Jing didn't know what to say. This kind of topic has always been a cannonball. Anyway, no emperor dared to say that he was the first in history.
But now there is an emperor like Yunxi. And if Yunxi fights for himself, it will be easier. Yunxi has a bad reputation in the history books and cannot escape; but Yunxi now fights for Emperor Taizu.
, this is an act of filial piety. Even if the civil officials disagree and refute Yunxi in the end, they cannot say that Yunxi is not good.
However, after all, Ju Jing was a person who had been arrogant many times, so he came to his senses and said: "The two emperors of Yan and Huang in ancient times defeated Chi You and kept the Han people in ignorance. No one can compare with him."
Didn't Ju Jing not know that he had greatly offended Yunxi by giving an example directly, and also violated the conventions of civil servants? However, the situation at this time was no longer under his control. If he retreated, who knows what kind of punishment he would receive, so he only
I can hold it up.
Yunxi said: "Since the arrival of Xia Qi, the dynasty has been established. The two emperors of Yan and Huang before that were not considered emperors. Although Emperor Taizu could not compare to the two emperors of Yan and Huang, they are not considered to be the topic of today's topic.
scope."
Yunxi took the initiative to admit that Zhu Yuanzhang was not as good as the two emperors of Yan and Huang, which was a step back, but still said that Zhu Yuanzhang was stronger than all previous kings starting from Xia Qi.
Ju Jing began to think again, and then said: "King Wu of Zhou overthrew the tyranny of King Zhou of Shang, saved the people from water and fire, and won the support of all the princes in the world. He accepted Hebei as his territory, which is comparable to Emperor Taizu."
Yunxi said: "Although King Wu of Zhou has great achievements, without King Wen of Zhou's painstaking efforts, how would he have achieved King Wu's achievements? Emperor Taizu started from scratch and achieved such great achievements. Therefore, King Wen of Zhou and King Wu of Zhou can be combined with Taizu.
Compared with our ancestors and emperors, no single person can compare!"
Ju Jing was silent for another moment and said: "The Han raised righteous soldiers to resist the violent Qin, and first invaded Xianyang and destroyed the Qin state. Later, they destroyed the Western Chu, unified the world, and brought peace to the world, which can be compared with Emperor Taizu."
Yunxi immediately said: "Although Han Gao also had great achievements, he was defeated in the battle of Baishan Mountain with the Xiongnu, and then made successive marriages; and the Taizu of this dynasty defeated the Meng Yuan Dynasty and drove straight to the north of the desert, and he was above Hen Gao
Already."
Ju Jing also listed several wise kings recognized by everyone, such as Guangwu of Han Dynasty, Taizong of Tang Dynasty, and Taizu of Song Dynasty, but Yunxi found loopholes and rejected them one by one.
Seeing that Ju Jing was running out of words, Yunxi decided to end the debate and said: "Since you have nothing to say, it proves that no emperor can compare with Emperor Taizu, so what is the meaning of that sentence above?
Why not?"
"So there is no need to talk to me about this matter, let alone make excuses and withdraw from the court!" After saying this, Yunxi left. There was no punishment for Ju Jing.
Civil servants also talked about it after they retired from the court. Indeed, if you single out a certain emperor, none of his individual achievements can be significantly better than Zhu Yuanzhang; and Yunxi limited the topic from the beginning, and could only compare achievements, so
The not-so-good things Zhu Yuanzhang did cannot be mentioned. This is one of the reasons why civil servants have nothing to say.
And if they take another path, it will reduce Zhu Yuanzhang's achievements. Let's not say whether Yunxi will be great. Just based on their own situation, they are not willing.
The Mongolian-Yuan regime must be evil, because during the Mongolian-Yuan Dynasty it was difficult for Han literati to become officials, and basically they could not become high-ranking officials. During the Mongolian-Yuan Dynasty, there was also a saying of "ten Confucians and nine beggars". This violated the collective interests of civil servants
, so the Mongolian and Yuan regime must be evil.
Therefore, it must be a great achievement for Zhu Yuanzhang to drive away the Mongols. Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang's achievements cannot be reduced, so they cannot refute Yunxi.
The civil officials gathered together discussed for a while, but they still had to give up. Who asked Yunxi to give an example directly? And it was not worth it to seriously violate Yunxi for such a thing.
