Chapter 132 Pros and Cons

When Xu Yu spoke at this time, he did not expect Bai Tu to allow him to "repay", that is, to use property to pay for his sins. He just casually added trouble to Bai Tu. Even if Bai Tu disagreed, at least he had established a "sympathetic colleague"

character.

Moreover, Xu You also considered his words carefully, and on the surface he respected Bai Tu very much and did not object to his penalty. At least there was nothing wrong with the scene.

"The military bill reviewed by the Privy Council does not apply to any redemption!" Bai Tu said.

Sooner or later, all white plans will be cancelled, including redemptions and redemptions. However, it is not advisable to rush things now. We must do it step by step.

"Hey, although Pan Sima harmed the common people, he was indeed loyal to his lord..." Xu You wanted to say a few more words.

In short, he insists on "Pan Zhang's loyalty" and wants to weaken Bai Tu's prestige and establish an impression in the army that "loyal ministers are not as good as civilians in the eyes of the lord".

Xu You also knew that even if he thought carefully about his words, he would definitely be on Bai Tu's blacklist.

He just expected that as long as he did not offend Bai Tu openly, the other party would not punish him openly...

As for after going back?

Xu Youhui will immediately resign from the army and will not give Bai Tu a chance to settle the score. To a certain extent, he is the self-destructing truck released by Xu.

But at this moment, Bai Tu directly signaled Zhou Tai to unveil the two vertical wooden plaques that had been prepared long ago. On them were the words that Bai Tu had shown Kong Rong before - these two lines of words, except when writing

Apart from Lu Lingqi, who did not shy away from the secret, and the carpenter who carved the words, less than five people knew about it in advance!

This was also the trump card that Bai Tu decided to use after deliberation for a long time - the kind that could easily twist his wrist.

After Xu You saw these two lines clearly, he seemed to have an invisible stone stuck in his throat. He couldn't speak for a long time, and his thoughts were completely disrupted...

Not only Xu You, the scene had completely quieted down. Even Wang Lang, who was originally present as the head of the Criminal Department and was preparing to pick up the few uncles who needed further trial, was also briefly "dizzied" at this time.

Angry and confused, then complicated... looking at Bai Tu with some admiration.

Killing someone is like killing my father!

To commit adultery with another person is like committing adultery with my daughter!

There is no need for any pre-explanation or explanation or translation. Even if you are illiterate, as long as you know these words, you will not fail to understand what Bai Tu wants to say - killing a civilian is equivalent to killing my father.

To molest a woman is equivalent to molesting my daughter.

There are always literate people around even those who are illiterate, but when anyone reads this sentence, their voice trembles.

This is the most intense and determined "declaration of war" against Pan Zhang, Xu You and others!

Don't you just want to ask why soldiers who are loyal to the "lord" are executed by the "lord" for killing civilians?

Now my lord tells you - if you kill them, it will be the same as killing my parents.

If you are loyal to me, please be polite to my lord's parents!

Don't talk about being loyal to me as the "enemy who killed my father"!

Is this reason enough?

This is also an "aphorism" put forward by Li Zicheng, the leader of the rebel army in the late Ming Dynasty, when he came back after a disastrous defeat more than a thousand years later. Like "equal land and avoid taxes", it was a powerful tool for him to win over the people and win their support.

At the beginning of Li Zicheng's uprising, his army had the same shortcomings as all the rebel armies - military discipline was extremely poor.

After being ambushed and defeated by the Ming army in Tongguan, he was depressed for several years. Later, Zhang Zizhong took advantage of Zhang Zizhong to attract the firepower of the Ming army, and he was able to make a comeback.

At this time, Li Zicheng's Caotai team also had some scholars, and they also realized the importance of people's hearts, so they put forward this slogan - of course, the original sentence is "A person who is raped is like a mother who is raped", but it was whitewashed from the beginning.

Changed, after all, he didn't really want to be beaten to death by his adoptive father.

Even Li Zicheng, who fought all the way to the capital, was still a rebel of the Caotai team. Under this shocking slogan, military discipline improved dramatically!

At least on the surface, no one under his command would dare to try to kill King Chuang's "father", what would be the consequences.

However... this was definitely a slogan with extremely wrong ideas in the feudal era. Bai Tu had also understood beforehand how serious side effects it would have.

Lu Bu would want to beat him, and it was just a household chore. There were many more serious side effects!

First of all, there is the unavoidable issue of "Confucian principles." The absolute core of Confucianism is to respect relatives and respect elders, which is a hierarchy and a symbol of kinship and alienation.

Confucianism is very concerned about the distinction between closeness and distance, so there are relatives who hide from each other... Therefore, Mozi's "universal love" is "fatherless" in Mencius' view, and "universal love" is also a heretic that Confucianism seriously resists.

Moreover, the Confucian philosophy of benevolent government and caring for the people means caring for the people as sons and treating the king as a father.

Firstly, Li Zicheng was barefoot and was not afraid of wearing shoes. Secondly, he was a member of his grass-roots team and was not very sensitive to this aspect.

But Bai Tu is different. His character is a great Confucian and a great sage. As soon as these two sentences are said, it can be said that he is immediately suspected of the heresy of "universal love".

If it were anyone else, they would have been "buried alive" in the scholarly public opinion, and they would not even be able to dig them out. That is to say, Bai Tu, who has the reputation of being a sage, still has the power to fight back, so he pulled the trigger before.

I asked Kong Rong to prepare in advance and "whitewash" myself at the academic level.

And in terms of closeness and distance, when dealing with one's generals and officials, one compares the people to parents and children. Who is he being close to and who is he alienating?

Even if there are gangsters present, they can point at Bai Tu's nose and ask, "You regard the people as your father, then where do you place your father and your majesty?"...

Moreover, the most shocking thing is not that it violates Confucianism, nor is it Bai Tu’s act of expressing his “love for the people” itself, but that these two sentences of Bai Tu, on a theoretical basis, are inconsistent with the current clan system, that is,

It conflicts with the "absolute correctness" of "kissing, kinship, respecting, respecting, respecting, respecting, and respecting."

Not to mention the rich and powerful, even if you are a child from a poor family, your family still has a "family" and is bound by clan.

Can a person who doesn't even care about the foundation of our foundation, the patriarchal etiquette, be our monarch?

If you are playing a game, you should be able to see in the white picture that most of the scholars from prominent families have "Favorability -1" dancing on their heads.

Of course, it is only "-1". With Kong Rong as the leader and a great scholar cheering for him, and his previous reputation, I believe that most reasonable nobles will not directly put themselves in the "reject" option.

As long as Bai Tu works hard, he can still be like Yu Fan - he didn't like you the first time they met, but who knew they would become so close later (Yu Fan: No.)

At this moment, there was just a "thumping" sound, and the people who were invited to testify, after hearing these two sentences read out, they all used "five-body prostrations" that were not standard, but extremely sincere, and bowed somewhat presumptuously.

Bai Tu, his eyes even filled with tears.

Bai Tu remembered something and looked back at the wooden plaque.

The same was true for the carpenter before. He was very dull in speech and said nothing while carving, but Bai Tu found that there were tears on it!

Although Bai Tu didn't think that having the victims' families worship him was something worth showing off to, at least at this moment, Bai Tu felt that he was willing to bear the disadvantages brought about by these two sentences...

At the same time, what Bai Tu didn't know was that in Jinling's Chengji Mansion, Jinling Ji, who was dressed in jewels but had empty eyes, was "plotting" something at this time, and there were dozens of illusory-looking figures around her.

, making Chengji Mansion very "lively".

Bai Tu also recognizes several of them, including the familiar Qu Aji, but apart from Jinling Ji, only Yu Ji's body is solid - Jingkou has not yet been built, and Yu Ji temporarily lives in Jinling.

"Are you sure what you want to do? This is not what Cheng Ji should do." Yu Ji seemed to be warning Jin Ling Ji, but her tone did not sound like persuasion, but... she was a little eager to try!
