Chapter 891
"The Qianlong Dynasty has affirmed the martyrs since the Ming Dynasty. The National History Museum once wrote the book "Records of the Martyrs in the Imperial Ding Sheng Dynasty". The conclusion of the book."

Lao Bo did not agree to rehabilitate Li Laiheng alone. The reason was that Qianlong had already rehabilitated the ministers of the Ming Dynasty on a large scale two years ago.

The negative teaching material of this book is the "Second Officials Record" that led the Restoration Emperor to embark on the road of pitting and clearing.

To sum up what Lao Bo meant was that it was unnecessary. Now the restoration of the imperial court is much more important than rehabilitating the ministers of the Ming Dynasty. There is really no reason to treat this as a major event.

Lao Li also meant the same thing. Since Qianlong had rehabilitated all the ministers who died in the Ming Dynasty, it would be a waste of effort if the reformation came again.

Lao Ah didn't say a word, although he was born in Manchuria, he also admired the ministers who died in the Ming Dynasty.

But just as President Li said that Qianlong had already done it, there is no need to carry out the Restoration Dynasty with great fanfare.

However, he also thought that the emperor would not bring up Xue Jingqiu's notes for no reason, so he wisely kept silent.

I'm not against it, but I don't support it either.

This is called a professional.

To be able to rise and fall in the Qianlong Dynasty and become the third in the Restoration Dynasty is still capable.

Jia Liu didn't say much, just took out the book "Records of Martyrs in the Sheng Dynasty" from the drawer, and said to the three big brothers: "This book is not well compiled. Anyone who died in the Anti-Qing Dynasty, They all briefly write about the story, and only write about the ending. If the master and his family were abused and tortured by the Qing army before and after his death, all the details will be erased and tampered with too much, which is really not an attitude towards history."

After finishing speaking, he turned to a page and pointed to Wang Yi, who was awarded the posthumous title of "Zhongmin". , not yielding to death."

"With just a few words, it is unknown how to die."

Jia Liu shook his head, took out a pile of books from the cabinet under the desk, and took out the top book called "Xuejiaoting Zhengqi Record".

Turn to the chapter about Wang Yi in the book. It records that after Wang Yi was arrested, he was in prison every day calmly, dressed neatly, combed his hair, and washed his face.

The Qing soldiers knew that he was about to die, and asked him why he still paid so much attention to grooming?
Wang Yi said: "I did this to let you people see the majesty of Han officials!"

When the Qing soldiers were assembled, the generals interrogated Wang Yi.

Sitting on the ground, Wang Yi calmly reprimanded: "Don't talk too much! Success and failure are blunt, which is caused by God's will. What do you know!"

Seeing that Wang Yi's ambition was invincible, the general of the Qing army couldn't help becoming angry from embarrassment. He drew his strong bow and shot at Wang Yi, and the arrow hit Wang Yi's shoulder; Shake slightly.

No cry of pain.

The Qing soldiers were helpless, so they brutally cut Wang Yi's trachea with a knife.

".He died calmly, only 36 years old, and after his death, he was shown to the public by the head of the city of Ningbo."

After reading Wang Yi's deeds word by word, Jia Liu asked the three elders again: "Which do you think is better, such a detailed record of martyrdom, or the few words in the Shengchao Record?"

"This"

None of the three big brothers said a word, not because they didn't know which record was better, but because they didn't know what the emperor meant.

Didn't he know that writing down and publishing the details of the murders of the ministers who died in the Ming Dynasty would make the Han people all over the world hate the Qing Dynasty again, and then set off round after round of anti-Qing waves.

This is not a good thing for the newly opened reform court. After all, you Guiziliu will bear the name of Aixinjueluo and the orthodox Qing Dynasty.

This thing is going to be done, it is more troublesome than taking off your pants and farting.

Jia Liu didn't ask any further questions, he lit a cigarette, and then read about the death of Chen Zizhuang, who was given the posthumous title of "Wen Zhong" by Nanming.

In the first year of Yongli, Tong Yangjia, governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, threatened to kill Chen Kezhuang's youngest son in an attempt to force him to defect.Chen Zizhuang would rather die than submit, saying: "The power is in the hand, not Zizhuang."

Tong Yangjia was unable to force surrender, and became angry from embarrassment. He thought of a poisonous plan to kill everyone, and sentenced Chen Zizhuang to the inhuman "sawing punishment", that is, sawing the person into two pieces from the top of the head down.

However, due to the shaking of the human body, the saw could not be cut down.

Chen Zizhuang shouted to the executioner: "Stupid, people in the world (saw) need wooden planks!"

"As a result, Chen Zizhuang was sawn in half by Tong Yangjia's people from top to bottom with a saw. Which torture is more cruel, or beheading in half?"

After closing the book, Jia Liu pointed out that the book edited by Qianlong, apart from deliberately not remembering the martyrdom, said very little about the ministers of the Ming Dynasty who died fighting against the Qing Dynasty, but only a few words about the ministers of the Ming Dynasty who died at the hands of the peasant army. A large page describes the process of his death rather than submission and martyrdom after being captured.

Such as You Shiwei, Zhou Yuji and others.

As for Ming Chen who died of resisting the order to shave his hair, he also concealed his refusal to shave his hair.

"Zhang Huangyan, a scholar of Dongge University and Minister of the Ministry of War, was born in Yin County. At the beginning, he served as a representative to welcome the king of Lu to Shaoxing to supervise the country, and then sent troops to overseas. He was ordered to be a scholar from the king of Gui. He fled to Xuan'ao, was attacked by soldiers, and refused to obey the order, so he died."

The biography of Zhang Huangyan, the Nanming anti-Qing general who received the posthumous title of "Zhonglie", only has more than 80 characters.

It is not mentioned that in order to force Zhang Huangyan to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, the Qing court took his family members as hostages and ordered his father to write a letter to surrender several times.After Zhang Huangyan's death, his body was randomly abandoned in the wilderness.In the same year, Zhang's wife and children were also executed after being imprisoned for a long time. No one in the whole family was spared except a daughter from the Wan family in Yin County in the early years.

And Qianlong himself particularly admired the three of them.

The first is Shi Kefa, the second is Liu Zongzhou, and the third is Zodiac Zhou.

These three people are all important ministers of the Southern Ming Dynasty, but they are all incompetent, what is the purpose of admiring these three people, there is no need to guess.

"Deletion is too heavy, too deliberate!"

Jia Liu picked up the "Excerpts of Martyrs in the Sheng Dynasty" and demanded that it be listed as the first banned book in the Restoration Dynasty. After the capital was restored, it would be recompiled by the National History Museum. It should objectively record the deeds of the officials who died in the Ming Dynasty with a realistic attitude.

In addition, Li Dingguo, Zheng Chenggong, and Li Laiheng, who represent the three major factions of the Ming army against the Qing Dynasty, should be added into it, and each will be biographical independently.

The three brothers looked at each other, their hearts filled with turmoil.

"Since ancient times, nothing has been more righteous than me. Loyalty to the emperor and righteousness are the most important tasks of this court. What I have done is not just to encourage famous education for my ministers and establish a standard of practice. It is to correct my reform atmosphere so that all my subjects can learn from it."

Speaking of this, Jia Liu actually asked Asha to go to Xingshan, Yichang to worship Li Laiheng on his behalf, and posthumously named Li Laiheng the King of Han, erected a monument and repaired his tomb, so that special personnel would continue to worship him.

"King of Han?"

Lao Bo was startled, "Your Majesty, although Li Laiheng is a minister, but after the great thief Li Zicheng, it seems inappropriate to posthumously designate him King of Han."

But Lao Li asked: "I dare to ask Your Majesty whether it is His Majesty's intention or Wu Chang's intention to make Li Laiheng the King of Han?"

This question is very critical.

If it is the meaning of Wuchang, in order for the two parties to cooperate again, it is necessary to release a signal of political improvement.

Qianlong was able to grant titles to a bunch of ministers who died in the Ming Dynasty. It is not impossible for the Restoration Emperor to grant Li Laiheng the title of king.

After all, this popularity festival is indeed the first among all the ministers in the Ming Dynasty.

But if the emperor himself meant it, then this matter would be very bad.

Could it be that the imperial court has just opened, and the project to go to Qinghua is about to start without the Northern Expedition to restore the capital?
