I am the king of the dead

Chapter 681 Seven Articles of Xu Qiyao's Teaching Son

Xing'an did not immediately persuade His Majesty, but found Yu Qian who was busy, and asked Yu Qian to persuade His Majesty.

Firstly, this is a matter for the foreign court, so it is natural for the foreign minister to advise His Majesty.

Secondly, the example of Yu Qian is more convincing.

Chen Zongqing's pure name must be preserved, and the will of the Ming emperor must be implemented.

This is not a simple matter.

Yu Qian is writing at his desk to promote the farm law, which is a very important job, involving the great Ming Dynasty, decades of peace and stability, and rapid development.

What His Majesty pursues is the transformation of the small peasant economy, and he can only win, not lose.

If the small peasant economy hadn't transformed into a commodity economy when His Majesty was in charge of the guests, Daming would immediately fall into the chaos of demons after the sun went down.

At that time, Daming might fall into a long winter.

And the farm law, all over the farms of Ming Dynasty, is the most important thing in the transformation of the small peasant economy. From the beginning to the end, Yu Qian has been responsible for the specific implementation of the farm law.

"Yu Shaobao, have you had an attack of phlegm disease recently?" After greeting each other, Xing'an began to exchange pleasantries, which were not regarded as greetings, His Majesty often asked, and Xing'an had to be aware of it.

Yu Qian said with a full smile: "Please take care of Your Majesty, a certain body is fine."

Going to the mountains and water with his Majesty, Yu Qian is much more leisurely than in the court.

The fraud case in the Jiangnan Examination Center, the incidents caused by the assassination of King Renhe Xia and Sun Xianzong were nothing more than to add to the fun of His Majesty's trip to the south. It was a trouble, and it was just a little trouble.

They didn't even need to act modestly. Fandu commanded Ma Yun, the governor of Jinyiwei Lu Zhong, and the commander of Nanzhen Fusi Yang Han were enough to deal with it.

Yu Qian didn't need to expend so much energy. The imperial physician of the imperial hospital visited him three times a month, and his body was very healthy.

Xing'an explained his reasons for coming here one by one, and continued: "Our family is not talented, and I heard His Majesty and Yu Shaobao talk about the signs of the country's subjugation."

"The first is to seek glory and be humiliated, which will chill the hearts of the people with lofty ideals and cause disorder in the world; the second is to destroy the government, and the party will prosper in the sky, and the government orders will be changed day and night, repeatedly, causing the world to lose peace; Giving false hands to others, imparting false names to others privately, and the world loses its morality."

Yu Qian glanced at Xing'an, nodded and said, "Of course."

In fact, civil servants and eunuchs are natural enemies. The conflict between civil servants and eunuchs in all dynasties has run through the entire Central Plains dynasty. It is not unheard of in history that there are such harmonious internal and external phases as Yu Qian and Xing'an.

The relationship between Gao Lishi, the eunuch of Emperor Xuanzong Li Longji of the Tang Dynasty, and Zhang Jiuling was relatively harmonious.

When Zhang Jiuling was squeezed out by Li Linfu, Gao Lishi also said a lot of good things for Zhang Jiuling, but Li Longji insisted on going his own way. When it came to the Anshi Rebellion, Li Longji regretted it and said: I took Zhang Jiuling's words, so it would not be like this.

As an eunuch, Xing'an should be ignorant, but it is obvious that Xing'an is not like this. After so long, Xing'an still keeps in mind that there are three signs of subjugation.

Xing'an said quite calmly: "Chen Zongqing is a clean and honest official, and people praised him as Chen Qingtian at that time. Our family felt that His Majesty's long scroll was really published in the mansion newspaper and sent to the state capital to be engraved on stones. Chen Zongqing could only hang himself to show his nobility. gone."

Chen Zongqing was scolded by His Majesty for painting, what should he do?
He can only die.

He can't go to His Majesty to make a statement, otherwise it will become a question of whether His Majesty is right or he is right, and whether His Majesty's face is more important or Chen Zongqing's face is more important.

"Is there any good way for Da Dang?" Yu Qian thought about this matter carefully, and it was true that he came forward to advise, and others were not suitable.

But it's really not easy.

Xing'an smiled and said: "Yes, just erase the word Songjiang on the gate of this city and write the word Hangzhou, that's enough."

"In this way, the gentlemen who point and point in the fields are Xia Shizheng, and those who plunder at the city gate, and the common people sell a jujube, and they will be arrested twice, are the gangsters of the Xinghai Gang. , and it is the prefect of Hangzhou, not the prefect of Songjiang, who sits in the government office and colludes with the gentry."

Yu Qian looked at Xing'an in surprise. This is clearly a painting of Songjiang Mansion with three peaks and nine peaks. How could it become Hangzhou Mansion?

This is not a deer for a horse!What is it!
But it's quite reasonable, the painting shows three peaks and nine peaks, it's indeed the landscape of Songjiang Mansion, but what His Majesty is talking about is about Hangzhou Mansion.

Yu Qian was stunned for a long time before saying: "Then do as Da Dang said."

Lin Xiu and Wang Hu have been fighting for so long for domestic money and national money. Lin Xiu, the eunuch of internal money, can win a big victory every time. A "Book of Angry People" can make Wang Hu, the doctor of the household department, angry every time. Smoke was coming out of the seven orifices, and every time Wang Hu had to ask the Minister of the Household Department to go to the emperor to intercede, and ask the emperor to sideline him.

Lin Xiu is also an eunuch, and what the eunuch walks is the sword swaying, and his thinking is very clear.

The bright word Hangzhou can indeed protect Chen Zongqing's reputation, and the prefect of Hangzhou has colluded with Xia Shizheng and has been imprisoned. The best result is to beheaded for public display. If he fails, he will be sent to Jieyuan. big case.

"Will His Majesty agree?" Yu Qian said thoughtfully.

Xing'an smiled and said: "Shouldn't Yu Shaobao be invited here? It's getting late, so I won't bother you any more. Our family will leave first."

"Send the big pen." Yu Qian stood up and took two steps.

Why did Xing'an go around in a big circle, instead of persuading him himself, he insisted on Yu Qian to persuade him?

Because both Xing'an and Yu Qian knew clearly that the wolves, tigers and leopards mentioned in His Majesty's painting, eating all their flesh and blood, were not to be scolded by the prefect of Hangzhou, nor the Governor of Songjiang.

What His Majesty wants to scold is not a specific person, but the oppressive oppression layer upon layer.

In the early morning of the next day, Yu Qian arrived at the imperial study room early to wait for His Majesty, holding a memorial and a corruption case file in his hand.

"See Your Majesty, is Your Majesty blessed?" Yu Qian bowed his head and saluted.

Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "I am safe, give me a seat."

"The minister is here today for the painting that His Majesty made yesterday." Yu Qian went straight to the point, and handed his memorial and file to Xing'an and said: "The file is Jingtai five years, Jiangnan inspectors corruption cases, Jinhua mansion pushed officials Xu Qiyao corruption case."

In the fifth year of Jingtai, Zuo Dingshou, Lian Gang of Lian Gangkou and Zuo Ding came to Nanya, and investigated more than [-] corrupt officials, which shocked the government and the public.

Then Lian Gang and Zuo Ding went to Sichuan again to preside over the investigation of the first case. Even the third-rank official in the court, Zuo Shilang of the household department, and Zhang Feng, who succeeded the secretary of the household department, were all pulled down.

The Chief Prosecutor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is also one of the emperor's water monkeys, and in the hands of the general charter with one hand covering the sky, the Metropolitan Procuratorate has become more and more clear.

He Zhang really only had one hand, and the other hand was buried outside the Great Wall, and Yang Shan, the Minister of Honglu Temple who leaked the movements of the Ming army, was finally beheaded by the emperor for public display.

Zhu Qiyu opened the case file, which contained Xu Qiyao's crimes.

Xu Qiyao was a Jinshi in the seventh year of Zhengtong, and ranked No. 36 in the second class. He was from Gu'an, Hebei.

Having been an official for more than ten years, Xu Qiyao has accepted bribes more than 46 times in total, and the corruption has reached as high as 120 million taels of silver.

This huge sum of money can be kept in the Jiuzhong Hall of Shaobao for about 330 years, that is, until 2790 AD in the Western calendar.

Xu Qiyao raised more than 140 concubines in Jinhua Mansion, including a mother and daughter.

Xu Qiyao also compared what happened on the bed of the mother and daughter.

Xu Qiyao is a very special person, he likes money and women, he only gives one, and he doesn't do anything, and he is happy when he is given enough of both.

In the dossier, there is a record of the "Teaching Son" that made Zhu Qiyu dumbfounded after reading it.

Teaching children can be described as the golden rule of officialdom.

"He really has a clear, straightforward and simple point of view, and his language is refined and aphoristic, and it's a deafening nonsense!" Zhu Qiyu said in amazement after reading the chapter on teaching children.

In Xu Qilin's chapter on teaching children, there are seven golden rules.

Article [-]: Right and wrong, if it is beneficial to oneself, it is right, and if it is harmful to oneself, it is wrong.If you can't tell the difference, it's right for your immediate boss.

Article [-]: True and false, learn to lie, be good at lying, get used to lying, prostitutes and officials are the same, both use words to confuse the world, official words are two words, bullying and hiding.

The third rule: think less, think less, read less, learn nothing, be blind.Those who are aware of injustices in the world will suffer from ups and downs when their minds are difficult; those who are not aware of injustices in the world will have a prosperous mind and prosperity.

Article [-]: The prosperity of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.If it is beneficial to the upper level, it will make a steady rise, but if it is beneficial to the lower level, it will be as solid as gold.

Article [-]: Meat eaters are contemptuous of far-sightedness and short-sightedness in the present, so they are official duties.What do you have to do with yourself in the paradise of kingship?If you want to eat meat, you have to be short-sighted and don't think about long-term strategies.

Article [-]: If you want to flatter your horse, only the superior will be evaluated for promotion.The thing about this flattery is a coincidence, it must be according to one's intentions, there are tens of thousands of prostitutes in Kagura, how can you marry a celebrity?
Article [-]: Change will lead to success, and generality will last for a long time. It is flexible and flexible, and it is convenient for others and convenient for oneself.Scrutinize the situation and decide according to the time. When you think about leniency and strictness, power and money reflect each other.

Zhu Qiyu silently looked at the dossier in his hand, this is the real family letter, teaching his son how to be an official.

Yu Qian took a sip of tea and looked at His Majesty's uncertain expression with a smile on his face.

These seven golden rules are the way of survival of the largest Vanity Fair in Ming Dynasty, and Yu Qian actually understood this truth long ago.

Yu Qian came from a family of officials and eunuchs. His great-grandfather served as a consolation envoy in Hunan in the Yuan Dynasty, which was roughly equivalent to the Huguang envoy in the Ming Dynasty. Yu Qian's grandfather became an official in the Hongwu period and served as the head of the Ministry of Industry.

Yu Qian's first wife, Dong Shi, is the daughter of Dong Yong, a concubine of the Imperial Academy and the magistrate of Yongfeng County.

Although Yu Qian's father had never been an official, Yu Qian understood the tricks of this Vanity Fair from a very young age.

Xu Qiyao's teaching son's chapters are seven, every word is pearls.

"Has Yu Shaobao ever regretted the act of assassinating Emperor Taizong Wen in the Fengtian Hall during the imperial examination?" Zhu Qiyu suddenly asked about the 19-year history of Yongle.

In the 19th year of Yongle, Daming just officially moved the capital, and the capital built in 13 years finally landed, and Zhu Di was in a great mood.

But at this time, Yu Qian, who came to Beijing to rush for the exam, made Zhu Di severely blocked.

Yu Qian won the championship in one fell swoop in the general examination, and won the Huiyuan. When it came to the palace examination, Yu Qian "injured the time with policy words" and criticized the government affairs during the Yongle period. Zhu Di was not happy, and finally only gave Yu Qian a top three No. .90 two.

Yu Qian was stunned for a moment, it has been Yongle for 19 years, and it has been 36 years.

He said full of memories: "At that time, I was young and energetic. I just struggled out of the pile of books. I was somewhat bookish. I didn't understand the suffering of Emperor Taizong Wen, so I talked nonsense."

"If you say regret, it doesn't mean that you were frivolous at the time. Which youth is not frivolous? If you do it again, you will still write like that."

"It's just that I didn't understand Emperor Taizong at the beginning."

"Emperor Taizong Wen was very close, even though his ministers were talking nonsense, and Emperor Taizong Wen loved talents, he did not remove his ministers from Jinshi."

Yu Qian was from Qiantang, and the atmosphere of Nanya at that time had a great influence on Qian. Zhu Di's image in Shilin was very bad. Yu Qian was affected by this, and said some extremely ugly things in the palace examination policy theory.

When Zhu Di killed someone, how was he ever relentless?

The 23-year-old Yu Qian was indeed extremely daring to assassinate the emperor, but Zhu Di finally got the fame.

Zhu Di's benevolence left Daming with a time-saving prime minister, otherwise Zhu Qizhen would poke a big hole in the sky and leave a mess, and I don't know how to end it.

Yu Qian didn't regret it. He would do that again. It was because of his character. But he had been an official for more than [-] years, and he was no longer the high-spirited young man who scolded Fang Qiu. At this time, he, What I regret is that I didn't understand Emperor Taizong's difficulties at the beginning.

Yu Qian pondered for a while before solemnly saying: "Your Majesty, most of the officials in this world are Xu Qiyao's turbid stream, and Chen Zongqing's clean stream is very rare. I think that what Xing'an Dadang said, adding the word Hangzhou to the long scroll, is a kind of A compromise."

"During the Song Dynasty, the misfortune of the party's ban was turned against Yingtian. Sima Guang recorded Yuanfeng's party membership, and Cai Jing set up a stele of Yuanyou party members, engraved with stones to record their names."

"Party tyranny, party tyranny, ruins the roots of the country."

Of course Chen Zongqing is Qingliu, but his pursuit of Qingliu is not the same as that of Chaozhong.

The group of officials from the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Imperial Academy who only know how to speak high-spirited words have muddied the word Qingliu.

If you can't change the facts, just change the definition. This kind of thing is instinctive for scholars.

Yu Qian's words were thoughtful.

In the late Northern Song Dynasty, Wang Anshi's reform and Sima Guang's counterattack made a list of Yuanfeng party membership to Wang Anshi. Zhang Dun resumed Yuanfeng's new law and turned Sima Guang into a traitor.

Unexpectedly, Song Zhezong died young and had no heirs. The frivolous king Zhao Ji became the emperor. The disaster of the party finally appeared the Yuanyou party member stele engraved in stone.

This period of party turmoil eventually exhausted the national power of the Northern Song Dynasty, and eventually led to the partial stability of the Southern Song Dynasty, and the sinking of Shenzhou.

"Well, it makes sense." Zhu Qiyu picked up a pen and added the word "Hangzhou" on the city gate of the long scroll.

Zhu Qiyu understood Yu Qian's remonstrance that the party struggle in the Northern Song Dynasty, which evolved from a dispute of political opinions to a disaster of life and death, was actually a concrete manifestation of the tearing of values.

In Zhu Qiyu's painting, a man who overturned a boat with one shot, but adding the word "Hangzhou" on the city gate became an inscription of a specific time and a specific event.

In this way, the effect is roughly equivalent to that when Zhu Yuanzhang peeled the bark and pulled the grass and put it in the Earth Temple and the Town God's Temple to deter corrupt officials.

"What Yu Shaobao said is not a compromise, but to check for omissions and fill in gaps." Zhu Qiyu looked at his painting and said with a smile.

When Sun Jizong, the filial son of Miemen, rebelled, Sun Zhong persuaded Sun Jizong not to rebel. He said that it was the Han family who maintained the morals of the world, and there was Zhongliang in his generation, not parasites, vampires, and others. Blessed meat eaters.

It's a pity that Sun Jizong was already blinded by lard at that time, and he had to fire when the arrow was on the string.

Yu Qian is checking for omissions and filling in vacancies, not a compromise.

Zhu Qiyu stood up and said with a smile: "Today Li Binyan, the governor of Songjiang, said that there is Wanguo Hui in Wanguo City today. Would you like Yu Shaobao to go and see it together? Anyway, there is nothing left and right."

"Please, Your Majesty." Yu Qian naturally went with His Majesty. The city of all nations gathers all nations, and the gathering of the World Expo is hosted by Li Binyan, governor of Songjiang, once a year.

Li Binyan's name has already resounded throughout Southeast Asia, the East, and the West, and with the development of Daming Maritime Trade, his name will resound throughout the world.

Tang Xing's use of Li Binyan's name will inevitably cause doubts among merchants from various countries.

Li Binyan, Governor of Songjiang in the Ming Dynasty, is he in Songjiang Mansion or in the ocean...

Zhu Qiyu stood up, and as soon as he walked out of the other garden, he saw Ran Siniang who had been waiting for a long time.

"See Your Majesty, see Yu Shaobao." Ran Siniang saluted Zhu Qiyu.

Yu Qian hurriedly returned the gift and said, "I have seen you."

Naturally, Ran Siniang also wants to go to Wan Guo Hui, in case those undisciplined barbarian girls flirt with His Majesty, she will be His Majesty's courtyard guard.

"Today's makeup is so beautiful." Zhu Qiyu whispered in Ran Siniang's ear.

"It's outside!" Ran Siniang's face was full of shyness, although she could let it go on the couch, but outside, her skin was still very thin.

Happy in Xing'an, he flicked his fly whisk, and said loudly: "Let's drive in Wan Guo City!"

　As the saying goes: The treacherous giant eunuchs point out that the deer is the horse, and they want to have both;If you want to know what happened next, let's listen to the next chapter.Snapped!Ask for a monthly pass!
