Chapter 671

After a debate, everyone thought that the little emperor was fighting with him, but it was not without a warning. After lunch, Ma Tingluan recalled what His Majesty said in the morning that he seemed to have some meaning, so he could no longer sit still. So he went to the next door to find Deng Guangjian to talk to him, but found that Wang Yinglin was also walking towards him. The two looked at each other and smiled and went hand in hand.

"Bohou, let me talk to Your Majesty in detail today. What do you think?" Ma Tingluan asked Wang Yinglin while walking.

"Xiang Zhong, I think Your Majesty is young, but it is not something that ordinary children can treat. Although Your Majesty's words today are somewhat biased, they are not without reason. It can be seen that he has studied the classics and history a lot." Wang Yinglin replied.

"I have the same feeling. Your Majesty can draw scriptures and treatises at will, and today's topic has not been arranged in advance, but he can talk about some truths. Even a bachelor who has studied classics and history for more than ten years is difficult to do!" Ma Tingluan nodded and said.

"You must know that Yingzhishi is a two-jinshi who is both good at both civil and military affairs; Jiang Shangshu is a descendant of a famous family, with three major ministers, and his family's origins; in addition, Deng Zhongfu is also a talented person of the world and has great research on classics and history. How could His Majesty be much worse with them instructing you!" Wang Yinglin said.

"Famous masters and disciples are indeed good, but Xiang Zhong, have you noticed that Your Majesty does not obey the saint's words, but has many doubts about the saints. This is not a blessing for us!" Ma Tingluan sighed lightly.

"I am not so pessimistic. At this time when the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, how can a timid king take on the heavy responsibility of restoring the country? And what Your Majesty says does have a source. Today's Confucianism is no longer an ancient Confucianism, and even classics have been deleted and become unrecognizable after years of deletion!" Wang Yinglin said with a smile.

"Well, now that Confucianism is the only one in history, Confucianism has to make changes to adapt to the situation. With His Majesty's words today, we can also see that he is dissatisfied with what the scholars do. I heard that Your Majesty came to Boao this time to avoid the lecture, but he did not know the root cause. Such a blind man and his Majesty disputed with Your Majesty, I am afraid that both sides will suffer a defeat." Ma Tingluan said with concern.

"Yes, now the Mongol Yuan regards scholars as if they abandoned their shoes. If our dynasty irritates His Majesty again and makes him wary of Confucianism, it may re-enact the disaster of the pre-Qin period!" Wang Yinglin said after hearing this.

The two of them looked at each other and were worried. Although they were both scholars from the imperial examination, they had also experienced many years of experience in the officialdom. Compared with those nerds who studied the classics and history hard, they were much more enlightened and had a personal experience of the cruelty of political struggles. Understanding whether any school can become the dominant will not be able to escape the support of the court. In other words, it is also the likes and dislikes of the emperor. There are too many such examples in previous dynasties. Just talking about the rise of Confucianism is also a bloody and tearful history!

Even when Confucius was still alive in the Spring and Autumn Period, Confucianism was not mainstream, but was just a member of many schools and had no status in the eyes of rulers for a long time. Take Shusun Tong, who was called the "Confucian Sect" by the Western Han Dynasty, for example, and he also worked as a doctor in the Qin Dynasty. Of course, his doctoral degree in the Qin Dynasty relied on his business as the "Yinyang Family" and was a doctor after burning books and burying scholars.

Once, Qin II summoned a doctorate because of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's rebellion. Confucian scholars asked for advice. More than 30 of them were indignant and cursed Chen Sheng and Wu Guang for rebellion and asked the emperor to send troops. Unexpectedly, the second emperor was angry. Shusun Tong appeared and said: What you said was not right. Now that the country is unified, swords and guns are put into storage, and horses are put into the Nanshan Mountain. It is clearly a peaceful and prosperous era. We have wise leaders and a complete system. As long as cadres at all levels are fulfilling their duties, who dares to rebel? It is obvious that a few scattered thieves are making trouble, and the local officials are caught and killed.

Qin Ershi was happy at this time and asked one by one whether it was a rebellion or a thief. Anyone who said it was a rebellion was arrested. The charge was "not appropriate", but you shouldn't say that you were not right; what about the thief? He smashed his job and fired. Only one uncle, Sun Tong, was awarded "twenty pieces of silk and one piece of clothing". When he returned to his residence, a group of fellow practitioners harmed him. Why are you so flattering? Shu Sun Tong replied: You don't know, my brother almost fell into the tiger's mouth. Then he quickly pulled away.

During the reign of Emperor Jing of Han, a Confucian scholar of Yuan Gusheng became a doctor in the court because of his careful study of the Book of Songs. Once, he had an academic debate with a scholar named Huang Sheng in front of the emperor. The theme was the "Tangwu Revolution" and was right. Speaking of the "Huang Lao Art" is not the Taoism that people currently believe that the tranquility and inaction respect the emperor and Lao Tzu. In fact, the core is the imperial art of being from the top to control the lower level. Liezi was not afraid of Zhuangzi who was hiding and hiding out of the world.

The system pattern of governing the country in the early Western Han Dynasty was similar to that of the Qin Dynasty. Emperor Jing of Han, who claimed to respect Huang Lao and was quiet and inaction, also like Qin Shihuang, used the "Nine Chapters of the Han Laws" deleted by Xiao He as the basis for governing the country. In this debate initiated by Emperor Jing of Han, everyone knew that Shang Tang and King Wu of Zhou, one was the Xia court minister overthrew Xia Jie, and the other was the Shang court minister overthrew Shang Zhou.

Huang Sheng said that Tang and Wu were wrong to kill the monarch and rebellion. Yuan Gusheng refuted: Jie and Zhou were unrighteous, and everyone in the world was heart-to-hearted to Tang, Wu, Tang and Wu killed Jie and Zhou with the support of the hearts of the people of the world, and of course it was right to follow the will of heaven. Huang Sheng pointed out: No matter how bad the hat was, he had to wear it on his head, and no matter how new the shoes were, he had to wear it on his feet. This is called a difference between the upper and lower levels. Jie and Zhou were no longer ruthless and foolish; Tang and Wu were still a minister. If the monarch did something wrong, the ministers did not advise to correct the emperor to respect the emperor, but instead killed the monarch on the grounds of mistakes, and changed the dynasty and became kings. What is this not rebellion?

In this debate, Yuan Gusheng held a Confucian position. If the king is not righteous, he should be punished, and he should be punished with righteousness. Huang Sheng held a view of the Huang-Lao faction, which is about distinguishing between the upper and lower levels and respecting the king unconditionally. This is also consistent with the Legalists. After all, the Legalists and Huang-Lao are both vested interests. Whoever is the monarch is on whoever is the monarch. And Yuan Gusheng held a traditional position of Confucianism in the pre-Qin period is that the monarch is not something, and I want to deal with you too!

From this perspective, as a veteran of the political arena, Ma Tingluan and Wang Yinglin, who are not clear about Qin Shihuang's political hostility towards Confucianism, it is not only a "feudal" or "county" difference, but a fundamental ideological worldview. Therefore, although in history books, we can see both Chunyu Yue crying and shouting for the retro feudal princes, and we can also see that Shusun Tong's flattery is serving Qin Shihuang as a doctor, whether it is soft or hard, the rulers' attitude towards them is not to rely on them, but to "promote the best and save it" to make fun of you.

Therefore, the Confucian scholars who could do it in such a political environment, and those who could not do it were all lying half of their bodies in the tiger's mouth, just to see whether the tiger should close its mouth. The reason why the rulers after Han Wu respected Confucianism was because they had to adapt to the situation, or secretly modify classics, or innovate Confucianism in a heavy manner to meet the needs of the rulers. The Song Dynasty vigorously promoted the status of scholars, which was nothing more than infringing on both powers and preventing warriors from abusing power...

"Lin'an fell. Your Majesty was only five years old when he left the city. According to Your Majesty's words, he was enlightened in the palace. Later, when he evacuated Quanzhou, His Majesty mistakenly boarded the plague boat to save the general Ni Dutong. It happened that Governor Liu was also on the boat and taught His Majesty for more than a month. Later, I, along with Secretary Jiang and Governor Yingshi, were ordered by the Empress Dowager to enter the palace to teach Your Majesty. In addition, Lu Prime Minister Lu talked about the "Great" to Your Majesty when he was in Yashan!" Deng Guangjian was very surprised. After Ma Tingluan and Wang Yinglin came, he asked about His Majesty's teacher's teachings, and he told what he knew about Hepan debuted.

"Oh, that's what you are teaching Your Majesty with your father, Zong Bao and Zhongfu!" Ma Tingluan continued, "Who has Your Majesty read those books?"

"Your Majesty is talented and should teach Your Majesty the way of the Holy King. Shangshu Jiang teaches military strategies and strategies. I will explain the classics and history to Your Majesty. Your Majesty has a wide range of knowledge and history. Not only does it keep the classics and history, but it is also interested in all kinds of craftsmen and travel notes!" Deng Guangjian always felt a little awkward when he heard their questions, but he still frowned and answered truthfully.

"The three are all great scholars of the world, so why is Your Majesty so repulsive to the saints?" Ma Tingluan asked in confusion.

"Mr. Xiangzhong's intention is that I have not taught Your Majesty well?" Deng Guangjian was not the angry young man who had just entered the officialdom. In the past two years, the officials now understood that there was no absolute black and white difference, and their minds were much more active, but their straightforward temper did not change. When they heard Ma Tingluan's words, they immediately questioned.

"Don't misunderstand Zhongfu, Xiang Zhong is definitely not the case. He feels that Your Majesty seems to be dissatisfied with the scholars. We are confused, but I just want to ask Zhongfu to explain his doubts!" ​​Wang Yinglin saw that he was annoyed and hurriedly explained.

"If you had your Majesty's experience that day, you would have doubts!" ​​Deng Guangjian sighed after hearing this.

"I wish to listen to the details!" Ma Tingluan and Wang Yinglin bowed their hands and said.

"When Your Majesty retreated from Lin'an that day, only a few people went to court in the palace, so that the Empress Dowager issued an imperial decree to rebuke. You must know that the Song Dynasty has been raising scholars for a hundred years, but when they use people, they escaped clean!" Deng Guangjian sighed lightly and continued, "When Your Majesty was evacuated from Quanzhou, he was separated from Emperor Jingyan, but he was brave and brave along the way to escape with his bravery. However, Chen Yizhong wanted to abandon those bravery, so that His Majesty had conflicts with him and placed His Majesty in a dangerous place. On the epidemic ship, His Majesty was even more deadly, and then he relied on a group of dying soldiers to repel the pursued enemy."

"After the time when Jiazi Town was resting, Chen Yizhong still did not forget to take revenge. His Majesty opened the mansion not only as the customs of the customs as food and wages, but also only allocated more than 20 old ships and thousands of more than one volunteers to come to Qiongzhou. But His Majesty relied on these remnants and the volunteers to stand firmly in Qiongzhou. During this period, Zeng Yuanzi took power and wanted to seize His Majesty's military power and seize Qiongzhou."

"When Emperor Jingyan was seriously ill and was in a dilemma, Chen Yizhong abandoned the throne and ran away. His Majesty succeeded to the throne and moved to Yashan, but was regarded as a puppet. He strictly prevented it and ignored the danger of the situation. The scholars did not do anything to face Zhang Shijie and let him take power. After defeating Zhang Hongfan, after his Majesty moved the dynasty to Qiongzhou, he still tried his best to resettle the officials of the dynasty under extremely tight finances, but they did not want to repay, but their position and position caused chaos and local turmoil, which disappointed His Majesty!"

"Well, what Your Majesty saw since childhood was betrayal by scholars. It is inevitable that he would be vigilant. However, the warrior repeatedly defended him when he was in danger. The comparison between the two sides made people ashamed!" Although he had already retired and these things had nothing to do with him, he still looked ashamed.
