Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 551 Who Owns This World?

Lu Xiangsheng looked at Lu Xiangguan, who was filled with righteous indignation and indignation, and said, "You said that Zhao Wen is a rebel, and you are right. But have you ever seen this kind of rebel? Today's Xuanzhen, let alone the current capital Even if it was placed in the capital during the Yongle period, it might not be comparable.

Look at the people here, everyone is wearing new clothes, and there are not a few silk clothes.If you look at their expressions again, almost everyone is smiling and red.

What does this represent?This means that the people here have enough to eat, are warmly clothed, and have money in their hands.

Walking from the city gate, almost every street in Xuan Town is full of vendors and shops, among which the butcher shop and cloth shop have the most people, which shows that the people of Xuan Town have reached the point of prosperity.

There are many vendors and many people, which also represents the prosperity of the people in Xuanzhen.To be honest, there are only a handful of times in history that such scenes have occurred. "

"Hmph, no matter what, Zhao Wen is a traitor. This is an indisputable fact." Lu Xiangguan snorted coldly, disagreeing with Lu Xiangsheng's point of view.

"Okay, don't talk about it, this is Zhao Wen's territory. If you say that again and you are arrested by the people here, what will you do then?" Lu Xiangjin pulled Lu Xiangguan's arm and persuaded in a low voice.

"Arrest? The country has been supporting scholars for more than 200 years, and I am still afraid that Zhao Wen's rebels will arrest me? What a joke, I just want to say that I want to go to Zhao's mansion to yell and curse!" Lu Xiangguan became more and more angry as he spoke. The more I talked and got excited, I finally yelled loudly. "Zhao Wen is an anti-thief. This person is an anti-thief, a proper anti-thief."

"Shut up!" Seeing Lu Xiangguan like this, Lu Xiangsheng hurriedly opened his mouth and cursed: "Shut up, this is not the capital city, this is Xuan Town!"

"Brother, I really don't understand why you defend Zhao Wen's rebel like this? What are his advantages? He is just a rebel!" Lu Xiangguan kept yelling like a stunned young man .

Their voices were quickly noticed by those around them.

A middle-aged scholar wearing a uniform and wearing a square flat crown was leading his family members wandering on the street. He suddenly heard Lu Xiangguan's voice, and then led his family towards Lu Xiangguan and the others.

Seeing someone coming, Lu Xiang not only didn't shut up, but yelled even louder.

"The imperial court has supported scholars for more than two hundred years, and today is the day of the righteous death!" Lu Xiangguan became more excited and generous as he spoke.

The eyes of the people around them were on them all at once.

Seeing everyone's eyes, Lu Xiangjin hurriedly covered Lu Xiangguan's mouth.

"May I ask where they come from? Xue does not dare to say that he knows all the people in Xuanzhen, but Xue, who is a scholar in Xuanzhen, knows a thing or two. In Xue's memory, he has not seen many people. bit!"

The middle-aged scholar stood in front of Lu Xiangsheng and the others, sizing them up with a pair of eyes.

This person is Xue Zexi, a gentry in Xuan Town, about 40 years old, with two sons and a daughter.

The eldest son was selected when he was in college and sent to Shanxi to be an official, and the second son is now admitted to the university.

It was the New Year's Eve soon, so Xue Zexi took his second son and daughter out for a stroll.

Because his eldest son was in Shanxi, although the railway has been built to Shanxi now, he has an official position, so he didn't come back.

"Father, what are you going to say to them? Arrest them directly and send them to the government. These people are deceiving people with lies, and they deserve death!" The second son pointed at Lu Xiangsheng and the others, and said coldly.

Xue Zexi looked at his second son, "You take your younger sister and the servants to go shopping elsewhere."

"Father, the people here are not good at first glance. If you stay here alone, what should you do if these people are not good for you?" The second son looked at Xue Zexi with a worried expression.

Xue Zexi shook his head, "This is Xuan Town, what are you afraid of? Go down!"

The second son couldn't resist, so he had no choice but to lead his younger sister and his servants towards the distance.

After the second son left, Xue Zexi set his eyes on Lu Xiangsheng, "Judging from your accent, you should be from the south, right?"

"Hmph, what's none of your business?" Lu Xiangguan glared at Xue Zexi and said coldly.

Lu Xiangsheng frowned, looked at Lu Xiangguan, "Don't be rude!"

After finishing speaking, Lu Xiangsheng cupped his hands at Xue Zexi, "My younger brother is a bit extreme, please forgive me!"

Xue Zexi bowed back and said, "That's the matter whether it's included or not. I think some of you have a big prejudice against me, Xuanzhen? Are you interested in talking about it?"

Xue Zexi saw that Lu Xiangsheng and the others were scholars, so he wanted to talk to them.

"Yes!" Lu Xiangsheng nodded.

"Come on, follow me, this is not a place to talk!" Xue Zexi said and led Lu Xiangsheng and the others along the street towards the front.

Not long after, Xue Zexi led Lu Xiangsheng and the others to a restaurant.

The restaurant is built with cement bricks and tiles. It is as high as four floors in total. Its shape is similar to the current shape, and the windows are all transparent glass.

Because it is not a meal, there are not many guests in the restaurant.

Xue Zexi walked into the lobby of the restaurant and came to the counter, "Old rules, the pine and bamboo room on the fourth floor!"

The shopkeeper looked at Xue Zexi with a smile, "So it's Mr. Xue. I haven't seen you for several days. How are you?"

"It's just like that recently, that's all right, hurry up and make arrangements for me, I'm going to invite guests today, and show me all your special skills!" Xue Zexi pointed to Lu Xiangsheng and others who were following behind him.

The shopkeeper sized up Lu Xiangsheng and the others, and then hurriedly shouted to the kid next to the counter: "Hurry up and take Mr. Xue upstairs, it's still the same place as before, the Songzhu room on the fourth floor, don't make a mistake!"

Hearing the shopkeeper's order, the child hurried up to Xue Zexi, saluted Xue Zexi, "Master Xue!"

Xue Zexi nodded, and followed Xiaoer to the fourth floor.

Not long after, Xue Zexi came to the Songzhu room on the fourth floor.

The Songzhu room is not big, but it is not small. There is a round table in the middle of the room, which can seat five or six people.

The room is decorated with pine and bamboo made of glass, although it is small, it looks very delicate.

Now the glass kiln in Zhao Wen's hands is no longer limited to the production of glass mirrors and glass windows, and some handicrafts have also been produced.

The pine tree in the room is as tall as a person, and it is poured in batches in the mold and formed in one piece.

It was fixed on a cement round pier, and the cement round pier was also processed, dyed the color of the soil, and decorated with some grass, which looked like real grass.

The trunk of the pine tree is dyed brown, and the leaves are dyed turquoise.

Because it is glass, the leaves of the pine tree look very round.

The bamboo is also made of glass, and it is as tall as a person, and it is fixed next to the pine tree.

Because it is made of glass and fuel is good, it looks very emerald green and moist.

Lu Xiangsheng and others saw these things as soon as they entered the door.

"Hmph, the desire for poverty is extremely extravagant!" Lu Xiang looked at the pine trees and bamboos and snorted coldly.

Xue Zexi smiled and didn't care.He pointed to the chair beside the round table, and said to Lu Xiangsheng, "Please!"

Lu Xiang rose back and saluted, then sat on the chair.

Lu Xiangguan and Lu Xiangjin did not refuse either, and sat next to Lu Xiangsheng, and Xue Zexi sat opposite Lu Xiangsheng.

"Who are you coming to Xuan Town for the first time?" After sitting down, Xue Zexi asked.

Lu Xiangsheng shook his head, "No, I came here once before I came down, but it was a long time ago. At that time, the general soldiers of Xuanzhen had not rebelled. This is the first time for my two younger brothers to come."

"I see!" Xue Zexi nodded, and then asked again: "What do you think of Xuan Town this time?"

Lu Xiangsheng didn't have time to think about it and said: "Wealthy, although I am a southerner, even if I compare myself with the whole South, I am even worse."

"Brother, why are you still speaking for Xuanzhen? No matter how good Xuanzhen is, it's a rebellion!" Lu Xiangguan said dissatisfied.

Xue Zexi smiled, and looked at Lu Xiangguan, "In your opinion, Xuanzhen is rebellion? It means disloyalty, injustice, and inhumanity?"

"Isn't it? As a courtier, why do you have to go against the chaos? A courtier should behave well and dedicate everything in Xuanzhen to the court!" Lu Xiangguan said eloquently.

Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help shaking his head when he heard Lu Xiangguan's words.

"Hehe!" Xue Zexi sneered, and then said: "This little brother really has a vision! Give the things from Xuanzhen to the court? Let me ask you, is it dedicated to the court or to the treacherous officials of the court? Today's court is a I don’t tell you what it looks like. In the second year of Chongzhen, Jiannu broke through the Xifeng Pass and plundered the land of Gyeonggi. If there is no Lord Zongbing, do you think Jiannu can retreat so easily?”

"I admit that this is all due to him, but he shouldn't rebel, he should contribute to the court, regain Liaodong, and put down the thieves." Lu Xiangguan said forcefully.

"Then was he charged with unwarranted charges?" Xue Zexi asked rhetorically, "Like Yue Fei in the Song Dynasty, who died in the Fengbo Pavilion, or was he taken away from the soldiers and horses, and imprisoned in the name of the master of the earthquake?"

"The imperial court won't!" Lu Xiangguan said unconvinced.

"No? Why not? Back then, Lord Chief Soldier had just made great military exploits. Originally, the court should have rewarded him generously, but what happened? The result was that the court rewarded his subordinates and forgot about him.

What do you think the court wants to do?Furthermore, before Lord Zongbing raised his troops, the imperial court asked Mr. Zongbing to go to the capital to participate in the Longevity Festival.Before the commander-in-chief went, the imperial court mobilized Guanning cavalry, Datong, and Jingying troops to block the water around the capital. What do you think this is for?
From the beginning to the present, the commander-in-chief has never received a penny of military salary from the imperial court, and he doesn't even have manpower.

Everything was saved bit by bit by Mr. Zongbing. Later, when the court saw that Mr. Zongbing was rich and powerful, and he had made great military exploits, he wanted to kill the donkey. You said, is this possible?
The officials in the DPRK and China are extremely corrupt. The commander-in-chief made great military exploits back then, so it’s fine if there is no reward. He wants to repeat the old incident. Is this convincing? "Xue Zexi looked at Lu Xiangguan sarcastically.

"No, the imperial court will not do this. And even if the imperial court wants to deal with him, he can't resist, let alone raise troops to rebel. You must know the truth that the emperor wants his ministers to die, and the ministers must die. Human relations?" Lu Xiangguan had a hard mouth, blushed and thick neck, arguing with Xue Zexi.

"Hehe!" Xue Zexi laughed angrily at Lu Xiangguan's words.

"It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous! I really don't know what to say about you. The king ordered the minister to die, and the minister had to die. Then if one day, you have made great military exploits and the court wants to kill you, will you kill me immediately? After Xue Zexi finished speaking, his eyes fixed on Lu Xiangguan.

Lu Xiang watched Xue Zexi, his face flushed red, and he was speechless for a long time.

"You said that Lord Chief Soldier is a rebel, so let me ask you again, who owns this world? Who do you think belongs to this world?" Xue Zexi asked back.

"Of course it is the world of Ming Dynasty, it is the world of the imperial court!" Lu Xiangguan retorted loudly.

"What about the people of the world? Isn't this world the world of the people of the world? You are also a scholar, and you should know the saying that the people are the most important, the community is second, and the king is the least.

However, how many emperors can listen to this sentence?If this sentence can really be followed, then where is the rise of thieves like Li Zicheng?How could there be thieves in the world who can't be wiped out?
You say that this world belongs to Daming, but what about before Daming?Is it the world of Qianyuan?In this way, did Emperor Taizu Gao also rebel?
In other words, before the Yuan Dynasty, this world was the world of the former Song Dynasty.Should Emperor Taizu Gao be the descendant of Zhao Song after conquering the world? "Xue Zexi kept talking.

Lu Xiangguan slapped the table and shouted: "You are making too much sense, you are making too much sense, you, you, you..."

Lu Xiangguan wanted to refute, but he didn't know how to refute.

The education he had received since he was a child was to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic to the country. He had never heard such remarks from Xue Zexi.

"Don't pat the table, don't be angry. If there is no Lord Zongbing, Jiannu will go south sooner or later, and the shame of Jingkang will be in front of you.

Even if Jiannu didn't go south, thieves like Li Zicheng would rise up, and the world would also perish by then.

I don't even need to tell you what Jian Nu and Liu Thief are.Do you think that by that time, will there still be a safe place in this world?

Rogues don't know how to produce, just like locusts, they only know how to destroy.If the bandits sit down, it will be the greatest suffering for the people of the world.

Needless to say Jiannu, if they sit in the world, they will definitely go too far than thieves.At that time, the world will bleed and float, and corpses will be everywhere. "

Xue Zexi stood up from the chair and walked to the window. He looked at the scenery outside the window, "The imperial court is extremely corrupt, and Wen Tiren, the chief minister of the cabinet, is even more of an elm lump. The people of the world are living in dire straits. Slaves and thieves are wiped out, and other crises will appear in the future.

The treacherous ministers in the court are in power, and the people of the world are in dire straits. This is the world today.This world is not only the world of Ming Dynasty, but also the world of the people of the world. The emperor has no virtue, and those who are capable will replace him.The imperial court has no virtue, and those who are capable will replace it.This is the truth that has not changed since ancient times! "
