Chapter 127 Chongzhen: Don’t I want to lose face? Lao Zhu: I want to kill this unworthy man who has subjugated his country!(1/2)

 ‘Why no signature?’

When Ji Boying went to Zhengde time and space to find Zhu Houzhao, he went to meet Wang Yangming, who was doing bamboo farming at home, in order to get the real Zhu Houzhao from Wang Yangming.

Before leaving, Wang Yangming was given a bunch of medicine to treat lung disease.

At the same time, in order to stabilize Mr. Yangming’s Taoist mind, which he had cultivated with great difficulty since his enlightenment in Longchang, the four teachings of Yangming were revealed in advance.

"Let me introduce it to you."

Ji Boying pointed at Wang Yangming who was sitting next to Zhu Houzhao.

"This is Wang Yangming."

"The four teachings you see in this hall come from Mr. Yangming's lifelong study."

The words fell.

Tianshun Yuqian, who was sitting with Emperor Jingtai, stood up instantly, with a look of surprise on his face.

When he came to Zuixian Tower before, when he first saw the Four Sentences hanging on the left and right sides of the main hall, he was amazed by them and fascinated by them.

"Yu Qian, I have met Mr."

"The teacher's knowledge is as deep as the sea, which can accommodate the heaven, earth, mountains and rivers. It makes people fascinated. It is truly admirable, admirable and praiseworthy."

From this sentence, it seems that Yu Shaobao is not incapable of flattering, but just unwilling to flatter the emperor.

Yu Qian stood up and bowed to Wang Yangming as a disciple.

Wang Yangming's eyes were slightly surprised. Yu Qian's name was like thunder in his ears. When he was young and admired him, he even went to express condolences at Yu Qian's tomb in person, and then stood up to return the favor.

"Because Shaobao's reputation has been overshadowed, Shaobao's contribution will last forever."

"Holding the Milky Way with my bare hands, my great reputation will be immortalized in the universe; I will bury the bones in the green mountains, where would I come to pay homage to the virtuous and virtuous?"

Yu Qian looked stunned and saluted again.

"Sir, you are so complimentary."

Not to be outdone, Wang Yangming also paid homage to Yu Qian.

"The less you protect, the more you lose your reputation."

"Disrespect, disrespect..."

"I have admired you for a long time..."

"…………"

Others couldn't help but frowned when they heard the back and forth between the two.

These two old guys treat us like nothing?!

"You worshiped heaven and earth twice?!"

Lao Zhu stopped drinking.

Ding.

Wang Yangming and Yu Qian were both shocked, and they quickly bowed deeply to Lao Zhu, then stopped and sat down respectively.

No matter whether you are a famous minister who saved the country or a Confucian saint who founded a sect, you must bow before our old Zhu.

Jiajing Immortal took another look at Wang Yangming, his eyes slightly condensed.

He doesn't have much favorable impression of Wang Yangming.

The reason is simple.

After the Jiajing Immortal came to power, in order to strengthen and consolidate his rule, he proclaimed himself a Taoist emperor who respected Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism. He even personally wrote "Jing Yi Zhi" and annotated Fan Jun's "Heart Zhi" and Cheng Yi's "Four Zhi".

Order all colleges and universities in the world to carve stones and erect monuments in their honor.

Wang Yangming's philosophy of mind is aimed directly at Zhu's Neo-Confucianism, which is tantamount to fighting with the Jiajing Immortal.

From the perspective of Xinxue, Zhu Jiaxue’s way of imprisoning people’s hearts is a solid stone that hinders human nature and must be broken.

In Zhu Jiali's view, theories such as Xinxue, which calls for the liberation of human nature, are completely crooked theories that are not conducive to dynastic rule.

In addition, Fei Hong and Gui Xun, the chief ministers of the cabinet in the early period of Jiajing at that time, strongly advocated suppressing Wang Yangming, nagging in Jiajing's ears all day long, and even asked Jiajing to abolish Wang Yangming's title.

Thanks to the Jiajing Immortal in the early stage, he was able to distinguish right from wrong. Although he did not like Wang Yangming, he believed that Wang Yangming was an important minister who had made great contributions to the country and was not listening to slander.

In fact, it’s not just Fei Hong and Gui Su.

Regardless of Yang Tinghe, who was hostile to Wang Yangming, or Yang Yiqing, who was interested in supporting Wang Yangming, they were actually wary of Wang Yangming entering the power center of the empire and did not even allow Wang Yangming to enter the capital, let alone join the cabinet.

Even when Wang Yangming was granted the title of Xin Xin Bo, he was not allowed to enter the court to express gratitude according to etiquette.

The reason is very simple. They are afraid of such a unique talent who has made great achievements in the official career and established a sect in academic circles. They are afraid that once Wang Yangming enters the center of power, the entire Ming Dynasty's power structure will undergo sudden changes.

Therefore, since the eighth year of Zhengde, Wang Yangming's activities have been limited to the south. They can make Wang Yangming governor, governor, and even the Minister of the Ministry of War in Nanjing with real power.

(Nanjing Sixth Ministry: The Ministry of War has real power, plus counselor and machine maintenance)

However, Wang Yangming was not allowed to go north.

On the contrary, Zhang Cong, who was sitting next to Jiajing, gave Wang Yangming a friendly smile, even with some admiration for Wang Yangming.

Although Zhang Cong and Gui Xin are political allies, Zhang Cong and Gui Xin are different.

He does not dislike Wang Yangming. On the contrary, he can be regarded as half a disciple of Xinxue. When Wang Yangming was able to recover, it was Zhang Cong who tried his best to mediate it.

As for the other courtiers from the early and middle Ming dynasties who entered school, they were ahead in time and space, so naturally they did not know Wang Yangming and others. They just felt that since his words could be quoted by immortal masters, he must be a great talent.

But then I thought again, who can come here who is not a great talent?!

Suddenly, I felt comfortable.

A certain dormitory at Peking University: Who is not the top scorer in the college entrance examination?

"Listen well."

Ji Boying's voice sounded at this moment.

As soon as he finished speaking, from Lao Zhu to the Immortal Jiajing, the emperors of these eleven time and space were all upright.

The emperor was so serious in class. Naturally, these ministers also straightened their backs and dared not speak.

"From the moment you appear here, you are the most important ministers of the Ming Dynasty in your era. Your emperor will have 100% trust in you in the future."

"This is my promise to you."

Ji Boying swept across eleven top talents from the Ming Dynasty who gathered from their respective time and space.

"And all you have to do is only one thing."

"That is to assist the emperor around you and lay an incorruptible and invincible foundation for your respective Ming Dynasty."

After the words fell, everyone looked solemn.

Ji Boying glanced at everyone again, then turned around, picked up the pen that had been dipped in ink on the pen holder, and wrote four big characters on the rice paper behind him with a long stroke of ink.

"The king and his ministers are of one mind"

Putting down the pen, his eyes swept over these twenty-two monarchs and ministers.

"Among you, only Jianwen's group is currently able to do this."

Zhu Laosi and Dao Yan looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

It is too difficult to rebel as a vassal king. If you can't have one mind, then just play Jer!

"As for the others, I can only use four words to describe them now."

Start writing, then write four characters.

"Each one has his own agenda"

Both the emperor and the ministers frowned at this time, and they all fell silent when they looked at the words "Everyone has their own agenda".

"It is a great taboo of the country to suspect the private affairs of ministers."

"Now, let's first take a look at the harm caused by extreme skepticism."

‘Extreme suspicion?’

No one has reacted yet.

As Ji Boying finished speaking.

The environment of the entire main hall suddenly changed.

The emperors headed by Lao Zhu didn't feel anything at all. They had long been accustomed to the immortal master's teaching style. They entered this illusion as soon as they entered it, without any preparation at all.

"This is Fengtian Hall."

Old Zhu Di subconsciously stood up and looked around the palace. He built the Forbidden City in Peking, so of course he recognized it.

The other emperors and ministers are also familiar with it. After all, they have meetings here every day.

However, Immortal Jiajing showed some doubts in her eyes.

Fengtian Palace? Does it look like this?

At this time, the scene around everyone seemed to have turned on an accelerator dozens of times, becoming extremely fast.

They can roughly only hear a few words clearly.

The words 'stop' and 'go' come back and forth, as well as the man who stood in the Jinluan Palace and became furious nine times out of ten.

"This person is Chongzhen."

Lao Zhu frowned. He vaguely remembered that his brother had mentioned it.

The king who overthrew the Ming Dynasty was Chongzhen!

"In the seventeen years since Chongzhen reigned, a total of fifty cabinet ministers have been replaced, including twenty chief ministers."
