Chapter 195: Corrupt Confucianism and Damage to the Country, Women's Liberation
The East Garden of Duke of Wei.
It's actually Bailuzhou Park.
As for Zhanyuan, an affiliated garden of the Xu family's Duke's Mansion, it was given by Taizu, just like the Duke's Mansion of the Xu family's Duke's Mansion, so this one must be kept for others.
In fact, Zhanyuan was not built by Xu Da, but the land was given by Taizu.
The various systems of nobles in the early Ming Dynasty were extremely strict. The size of the garden they had was limited to the standard. Even if they were given land, they could not build such gardens without authorization. This is an illegal system.
Zhanyuan was built only when Xu Qi, the sixth generation Duke of Wei.
Starting from Xu Qi, the Xu family built a lot of gardens in and outside Nanjing. Zhanyuan is the West Garden, this East Garden, Mochou Lake, South Garden, North Garden, etc., a total of ten, but they are not simply under the name of Duke of Wei. In fact, they belong to other descendants of the Xu family. This East Garden is not under the name of Xu Hongji. However, since the family was searched, they would not care about anything else. The Xu family only retained Duke of Wei.
All the rest were copied.
At most, they can keep their residences, but this kind of garden must be destroyed.
Then these gardens were converted into Yang Feng's own belongings together with the stack of pictures in the hands of the imperial concubine.
At this moment, among the green grass near the water in this garden, more than a hundred beautiful girls were sitting on the ground, looking at Yang Feng shyly...
"Everything took off!"
Yang Feng said.
The beautiful girls looked at him shyly.
"Did you hear it? Take off all your shoes quickly!"
Yang Feng said with a willow branch.
The beautiful girls had to take off their shoes one by one, revealing socks that smelled of sweaty feet.
"Take it off again!"
Yang Feng swung the willow branches in his hand.
The beautiful girls quickly took off their socks to reveal their tightly wrapped feet.
Although donkey hooves are impossible, foot binding is inevitable for them at their age, which is that they are wrapped in a light degree, just to make their feet as small as possible. However, the exaggerated aesthetic of donkey hooves is at least not yet reached in the Ming Dynasty. As for the three-inch golden lotus in the articles of literati in the Ming Dynasty, it is just rhetoric. Some beauties who specialize in the service industry are indeed very small, but they are not.
The imperial concubine's shoes were also available in six inches.
But even so, it can be called a torture. I am weak and have to endure the pain of restraint under my feet.
"Everyone untie this and then find a place to burn it!"
Yang Feng was carrying willow branches among them, walking like a teacher invigilating the exam.
He also covered his nose with exaggerated expression, as if he was resisting some strange smell.
The beautiful girls blushed and unbuttoned their foot binding cloth, rolled it up silently and threw it aside, and were still moving with their feet that were free from the constraints. It was obvious that they were in a happy mood. After all, this thing was really not liked by women. At this moment, two big-skinned and round-waisted shrews came over with a large box, which was full of yellow vests. After putting it down, they quickly left.
"Everyone, one piece, put it on!"
Yang Feng said.
The beautiful girls quickly put on their socks and shoes, and went over to take their yellow vests on them.
At this time, the two shrews returned, carrying two long vertical flags tied to bamboo poles, with various exaggerated slogans written on them...
"Break the archway of chastity!"
"Corrupt scholars harm the country and women are liberated!"
...
All of this is all about it.
After they put it down, they carried a heavy box.
"Five people in groups, one with a flag, two with a flyer, and two with a good verbal person are responsible for distributing flyer."
Yang Feng grabbed a flyer from the box and said.
There are also a bunch of exaggerated titles on it...
"Shocked, the truth about the chastity arch."
"Abnormal, on the deformed aesthetic nature of foot binding."
...
The beautiful girls were indeed looking at these flyers in shock. The contents on them had a huge impact on their young hearts. Then they were still watching each other with exchanges. Many people even showed sudden expressions...
Then Li Zhi appeared behind Yang Feng.
"I have to say that although your interpretations are ulterior motives, they make some sense."
Li Zhi said with a leaflet.
This is the truth about the chastity archway.
To put it bluntly, the inner darkness of Confucian scholars of the Southern Song Dynasty. During the Jingkang Incident, they shamelessly offered women to protect their safety. Although they did not keep their safety, they left a record of shame. In this case, the Confucian scholars of the Southern Song Dynasty did not study where the real mistakes were, but instead promoted them on the chastity archway to let women know that although we betray you, you should also maintain our dignity with death.
This psychology eventually evolved into the marriage of a man who took off the husband as his wife, and losing his integrity became contrary to the laws of nature.
During the period of Hu Yuan, the serf owners in Jiangnan carried forward the development of the country.
Zheng Yu, a great scholar in Huizhou, clearly pointed out that it is glorious and great for a widow to die for her husband, but it is wrong for a husband to die for a dead wife.
This belongs to the position of Yi Tiandi, and is as terrifying and absurd as the reversal of heaven and earth.
By the Ming Dynasty, even Zhu Yuanzhang expressed support for this and began to institutionalize the construction of the chastity archway.
However, it is not easy to blame him at this point. He was a mud-legged beggar. How could he know so many things? After nearly a hundred years of dynasty, many things from the Song Dynasty were no longer able to be truly passed down among the people. If we included the transition period of the Southern Song Dynasty, which was a two hundred years of rupture, how could he know that those women in the Northern Song Dynasty could remarry at will? After all, his theory of governing the country was indoctrinated by those Confucian scholars. He could only know everything about the past through these people.
But these Confucian scholars will only tell him what they want to tell him.
But now Yang Feng reinterpreted this with a shocking style, not to mention whether it is right or not, but at least it is already shocked enough.
"You are obviously for women, but in fact you want to destroy the foundation of Neo-Confucianism, but just use women to attract others!"
Li Zhi saw through his sinister intentions at a glance.
"Then are you for or against?"
Yang Feng said.
That's his purpose!
But he needs a more eye-catching way. What is more eye-catching than a group of beautiful girls running on the streets to promote women's liberation?
Just because Li Zhi and those who were popular among women in the Taizhou School before were known that the women in the southern Ming Dynasty were already trying to think. Now that he let these beautiful girls go out, it will inevitably resonate with those women, and then let his private goods spread among women first, and then spread from women to men.
Three Bonds and Five Constant Virtues.
This is a theoretical system that has been solidified for hundreds of years and has become a natural and reasonable one.
If you break one, you will shake everything.
If you doubt one, you doubt it all. Since the husband is a wife's leader from such a dirty idea, is it correct for the king to be a minister and the father to be a son? If the wrong one is a wrong one, the other two must be correct? When the real doubt begins, the foundation of Neo-Confucianism begins to collapse.
"Ha, I am the most despised by those corrupt scholars of Neo-Confucianism in my life. You are quite fond of these things. Besides, women are the same as men, and I am the first to shout out. You are just following behind. Then today I will just help you!"
Li Zhi said.
After saying that, the old man carried the banner of corrupt scholars who harmed the country and women's liberation.
"Everyone is lined up and come over. Follow Mr. Li Zhuowu. Don't be shy. If you perform well, you will be rewarded when you come back."
Yang Feng shouted with a smile.
The beautiful girls quickly got up and divided their flyers. At this time, they were already very interested. After all, they were just junior high school students and still liked to join in the fun. Moreover, they were all literate and had read all the contents on these flyers. And they themselves had no doubts about Yang Feng already regarded him as their master, so they did not doubt him as they read these shocked bodies. Now there is a famous scholar who takes the lead, so there is no doubt about him...
Let's make a fuss!
They are all fourteen or fifteen years old and like to make trouble.
In the past, I was restricted by various restrictions and had to study piano, chess, calligraphy and painting with my feet tremblingly. Now, there is a sudden release of my nature to them, all of whom I am as happy as those little feet that have been untethered.
"Let's go out with me, we're going to write a letter of war to the corrupt scholars!"
Li Zhi carried the banner of corrupt scholars to harm the country, and moved forward with high spirits.
He was like a bunch of little yellow ducks, followed by more than a hundred beautiful girls wearing yellow vests.
This old man is a real madman. Compared with his teachings to women in temples before, this is actually not too exaggerated. He has many behaviors of rebellion. Otherwise, when Zhang Wenda impeached him, he would not have said that once he entered the capital, he would easily cause seduction in the capital, and he regarded it as a disaster. Gu Xiancheng even accused him of causing the world's academic devastation. It can be imagined that the panic brought to Confucian scholars by this old man.
He, an old troll, has too strong combat power.
These guys really had no way to deal with him in a normal way, so they had to use the help of the court to eliminate him to prevent him from continuing to spread fallacies and evil deeds among the people. After all, dead people cannot speak.
"Corrupt scholars harm the country and women are liberated!"
The old man was obviously holding the flag and shouting at the gate of the garden with a little excited.
"Corrupt scholars harm the country and women are liberated!"
The little yellow ducks shouted in unison.
Their strange team walked out with great pride, and then, in a shocked gaze in front of the door, shouting slogans while walking towards the street ahead. Soon a woman came to the little yellow ducks and began to take over the flyers in their hands.
Yang Feng rode on a horse, took his personal guards, and followed them as bodyguards to ensure that they would not be attacked by Confucian scholars.
There are still many Confucian scholars in Nanjing.
