If someone has two surnames, it is not the fault of his ministers, but the fault of his ruler!
Those officials who betrayed the Ming Dynasty and surrendered to the Qing Dynasty were actually not at fault. The fault was with the Ming Dynasty emperor to whom they had served.
What He Shen said was very fair and reasonable.
Not to mention Jia Liu's thoughts, after his father Jia Daquan heard what he said to the guard, his chest felt as if the little chrysanthemum from Wanchun Tower had licked it with the tip of his tongue. It was so damn comfortable.
That's right. If the Emperor of the Zhu family had the ability, could my grandfather surrender to the Qing Dynasty?
Since there was nothing wrong with my grandfather surrendering to the Qing Dynasty, why should I say that my grandfather was a traitor?
Either the emperor is unkind, or there is a villain around the emperor!
When this person is in trouble and is helpless, even if the person who comes to him cannot actually help him, as long as what he says catches his meaning and reaches his ears, he will immediately feel that this person is a very good person.
Jia Daquan has this mentality now.
But just when the father wanted to strike while the iron was hot and complain to the old man, in order to increase the sympathy of the family and the guards towards the Jia family, the son next to him said something that made him confused, and immediately glared at his son unhappily.
Said: "My lord is talking, why are you interrupting?"
Jia Liu thought to himself that I became an adult a few years ago, so what can't I do?
But he didn't have time to talk back to this silly father, but asked He Shen seriously, who was attracted by what he said: "I wonder if the guards know where what I said came from, and whose fault it is?"
"this..."
Although He Shen was familiar with the classics, he couldn't bear to be asked this question. For a moment, he really didn't remember where the words came from.
"In Ji's chapter of The Analects of Confucius, if I remember correctly, the annotation given by Zhu Wengong is that the keeper of the code cannot refuse to take responsibility for it! Therefore, the tiger comes out of the coffin, and the tortoise and jade are destroyed in the coffin. Of course, the blame
It’s the caretaker’s responsibility.”
Jia Liu's voice was obviously much louder when he said these words, especially the sentence "Those who keep the code cannot shirk their responsibility."
He didn't give He Shen much time to think about it, because he knew that He Shen would be able to think of where it came from and what the answer was. In that case, the importance of Jia Liuye's "points" would not be highlighted.
After Jia Liu reminded him, He Shen immediately thought of it, nodded slightly, and said: "It does come from the Ji family chapter in The Analects of Confucius, where the Ji family will attack Zhuanyu."
Immediately, I felt a little strange. I wonder why Mr. Jia mentioned the words of the saint. Does this have anything to do with the predicament that his Jia family is facing now?
Originally there was no relationship, but now there is a relationship.
You and Shen said that it was not his fault that the old man of the Jia family became a second minister, but the fault of Emperor Zhu Ming, who he used to be loyal to.
The beast came out of the cage and damaged the jade. Whose fault was it?
Two things that were originally unrelated to each other now have an invisible echo.
"My great-grandfather has been loyal to the Qing Dynasty and made great contributions to the Qing Dynasty. Now the emperor has designated my great-grandfather as his second minister. This is neither reasonable nor reasonable, so I think it is the emperor's fault."
Jia Liu quickly pointed out the topic. The favor from heaven had been inadvertently given to He Shen. At this time, he couldn't emphasize it any more, otherwise it would be bad if the traces were too deep.
At this point, we have to bring the topic back to the incident itself.
When it comes to the rights and wrongs of the emperor, He Shen obviously would not say anything casually, let alone agree with the young master of the Jia family. After thinking about it, he said: "I think the reason why the emperor asked the National History Museum to compile "The Biography of Erchen" was that he hoped to
The many deeds of these people during their official career and in this dynasty should be written down according to the facts, so as to reward their loyalty and encourage their officials to be honest. In this way, the people of our dynasty will regard loyalty to the emperor as their duty and nothing else."
This is a very cunning statement, and it is a two-way crime.
But one thing was really mentioned by Heshen. When Qianlong passed the decree and the National History Museum decided to finalize the biographies of the second ministers, he once said that the group of demoted officials in the early Qing Dynasty "suffered difficult times and could not give orders to their masters in times of crisis. It was really a big mistake."
How can one be said to be a perfect man if he is afraid of death but happy to live, and has a wrathful face? Even if the film is a little longer, his flaws cannot be covered up..."
This means that although Hong Chengchou and others made great contributions to the Qing Dynasty, and even most of their descendants served as officials within the banner, as far as these people themselves were concerned, they were morally deficient.
Qianlong himself advocated Confucianism, and the idea that "loyal ministers do not serve two masters" advocated by Confucianism won his heart. The most important criterion for evaluating ministers in all dynasties was the word "loyalty".
On that day, Qianlong accompanied the Queen Mother to watch the Kunqu Opera "The Peach Blossom Fan". At first, he hated Ma Shiying who appeared in the play. After learning that Ma Shiying died in the Ming Dynasty and was skinned in Taihu Lake for our Qing soldiers, he couldn't help but feel emotional and moved. Thinking again about those events in the early days of the Republic of China.
Although Han officials and ministers were said to have made great contributions to the Qing Dynasty, none of them had the word "loyalty" in their hearts, which made them even more contemptuous.
After careful consideration, Qianlong decided to compile a list of ministers in the National History Museum, with the intention of educating the world and at the same time further easing the conflict between Manchu and Han in the Qing Empire.
From the perspective of the Han people, judging the Han officials who came to the Qing Dynasty since the Ming Dynasty was a good way to educate the world's people.
As the saying goes, the ministers cannot hide themselves in subtle ways, the filial sons and the loving grandchildren cannot be changed in a hundred generations, but the principles of ministers and ministers should be established for the people of the Qing Dynasty forever!
Whether Qianlong appointed two ministers or three surnames, it didn't matter to Jia Liu. What he was concerned about was the issue of the Jia family's flag. So the conversation changed: "It is a good thing to reward loyalty and encourage ministers to be honest. The emperor has always
Emphasis on education and cultivating virtues to cherish people..."
After complimenting Qianlong, Jia Liu said again, "My grandpa of the Jia family was indeed a minister of the Ming Dynasty in his early years, and we and other descendants will not deny this. However, my grandpa's morals are deficient, and the history of the country is written according to the facts. I will wait for the future generations to do so."
It’s hard for people to say anything. But what’s wrong with my descendants to make me stand up to serve the people?”
Jia Liu clearly pointed out that the three generations of the Jia family since the restoration of Grandpa Jia Han were all born in the Qing Dynasty and died in the Qing Dynasty. They were dedicated to their careers in the banner and shed blood and tears for the Qing Dynasty.
No matter which way you look at it, it makes no sense to let the Jia family raise the flag.
"As you can see from the guards, since ancient times, we have not worried about being few but about inequality, and we have not worried about poverty but about insecurity. If the emperor decides that all the families of the ministers will raise flags, my Jia family will have nothing to say. But some families will raise flags, and some families will not.
, what do you think if you ask me to wait?”
Jia Liu didn't know how many descendants of the two ministers had given the flag, but if he wanted to help Heshen now, he had to point to the uneven number and uneven distribution of flags.
The second brother-in-law, Gao Delu, couldn't help but nodded and said: "Yes, yes, we don't worry about the few but the inequality. If we want to raise the flag, we will raise the flag together. If we don't raise the flag, we won't raise the flag at all. What's the point of just arresting the Jia family?"
He Shen didn't say anything. He didn't know much about the specific matter of the Han army raising the flag, but what the Jia family said was reasonable. After all, it was unreasonable to let the hero raise the flag later. These heroes would be divided into three, six, nine and so on.
The treatment is even more outrageous. But I don’t know who is in charge of raising the flag.
Just as I was thinking about it, Mr. Jia spoke again.
"And the guards, a gentleman has three fears, one is the destiny, the second is the fear of great people, and the third is the fear of the words of the sage. And the sage once said that if you don't hold on to danger, if you don't help when you are bumpy, then how can you use them."
The meaning of this sentence is that if a blind person walks unsteadily and does not help him or if he falls, he will not help him. So how can such a person expect anyone to help him?
When Jia Liu said this to He Shen, he was hiding a great compliment.
It is also in line with the current reality. Isn’t his Jia family just like the blind man?
Therefore, He Zhongtang, for the sake of the party and the state, you have to help your brother.
