Chapter 13 Please repair the Ming Dynasty to safeguard the country

Xu Youzhen's article came to Shang Lu across the ocean. After reading it, Shang Lu was overjoyed.

Because Shang Lu found that it seems that everyone is not very familiar with this method, so there are not many articles that have been reported on whether to revise the Ming Dynasty Law.

If Shang Lu could still use the emperor's authority to write articles by the cabinet when the publication was opened, but now Shang Lu has the possibility of opening the skylight.

Fortunately, Shang Lu still has some connections. He was really not ready, so he found a few people to write from the Hanlin Academy.

But in this way, it is hard to say about Zhu Qizhen's task.

Now that Xu Youzhen's article arrived, Shang Lu immediately felt that he would not be able to live in the world without following the revised Ming Dynasty scriptures above.

So this article soon came to Zhu Qizhen's hands.

Zhu Qizhen was overjoyed when he saw it.

What does Xu Youzhen say in his article?

First, define the ancestral system.

He used a lot of words to determine a proposition, that is, what is the ancestral system. The ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty was the attitude of the ancestors of the ancestors who loved the people and treated the people as innocent, rather than specific legal documents.

It is particularly pointed out that during the Hongwu period, whether it was the "The Instructions of the Emperor's Ming Dynasty" or the "The Law of the Ming Dynasty", it was re-revised many times, which shows this point.

Therefore, following the teachings of the ancestors, one should be obsessed with the will and love the people by his ancestors, rather than legal provisions that have changed.

We will also use a large number of examples to determine the world with strictness and govern the world with lenientness. Only in this way can we protect the world of the Great Ming Dynasty, for thousands of generations, and even for hundreds of generations.

Zhu Qizhen was extremely excited about this alone.

It seems that Xu Youzhen also followed the ancestral system, but in Zhu Qizhen's eyes, this passage means to overturn the factual ancestral system and replace it with a spiritual ancestral system.

The simpler the concept, the more interpretation Zhu Qizhen has as the emperor.

Secondly, Xu Youzhen refuted that it is not feasible to use examples to supplement the law.

First of all, time has changed. The previous cases seem to be the same as those of the later cases, but in fact, there are still differences. If all of them are quoted well, there will naturally be inappropriate points.

If not cited, it is another new case.

After so many cases, there are several precedents in a certain type of case, which leads to the right cases from the perspective of judgment, from this case and from the other case. In this way, it gives corrupt officials room to do it.

Second,

The numerous cases will also create a stacked bed structure and contradict each other, making the people at a loss. There are many cases, which will even put the Ming Dynasty law in an overwhelming manner.

If there is a law, the status will be disordered.

And why.

Therefore, instead of revising the Ming Dynasty's laws, but using examples to supplement the laws, it is simply that there is a grand and righteous way to not walk, but instead walk on a rugged path.

If this is the case, although Zhu Qizhen is satisfied, he does not think that Xu Youzhen's articles have many merits.

The following text is the most exciting part of the memorial. It is also the reason why Zhu Qizhen can't put it down.

Xu Youzhen did not simply leave the issue on whether to revise the Ming Dynasty law, but instead brought things further.

Xu Youzhen listed that since Hongwu, many changes in political systems have been like changes in the Ministry of War and the Governor's Office of the Five Army, as well as other changes, such as the establishment of governors, civil servants and governors, cabinet changes, etc.

Faced with the same problem, Zhu Qizhen took every step of the way and was careful, but Xu Youzhen made drastic moves and made the situation open. With this ability, Zhu Qizhen would not care too much about Xu Youzhen's small flaws.

At this moment, Zhu Qizhen suddenly felt a sense of pleasure and asked Huaien: "Have the cabinet read this article?"

Huaien said: "No, Tongzhengsi was only sent to the Ganqing Palace."

Zhu Qizhen said, "Copy a point to the cabinet." He wanted to see how Li Xian should deal with it by taking a chess move.

Huai'en naturally sent someone to send a point to the cabinet.

According to the eunuch, the cabinet ministers seemed to have no reaction at all.

While Zhu Qizhen was a little disappointed, he was also relieved. If the cabinet grandsons lost their composure on the spot, they would not be worthy of being the Grand Secretary of the Ming Dynasty.

The dangers of mountains and rivers in the chest and the strictness of cunning in the belly are the basic skills of being a Grand Secretary. Although this incident makes them uncomfortable, it has not yet made them lose their composure on the spot.

However, Zhu Qizhen also believed that the cabinet would not be unresponsive.

Sure enough, news came out that day.

Among the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, the chief assistant Li Xian, Wang Wen and Liu Qiu went to Shichahai to fish.

Zhu Qizhen knew that the three of them were definitely not going to fish, so he smiled in his heart and said, "I have leisure and leisure." However, Zhu Qizhen didn't care much either.

The political atmosphere created by Zhu Qizhen over the past decade is generally relatively relaxed. Zhu Qizhen did not care much about this kind of private gathering of important officials and did not know about it.
