Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 552
"Now that the energy of the Great Ming Dynasty is exhausted, it is time for the Chief Soldier to reorganize the country." Xue Zexi's voice was sonorous and powerful, and he watched Lu Xiangsheng and his brothers speak loudly.

Lu Xiangguan blushed and said with a thick neck: "There is no reason for what you said. You are making excuses. Even if it is to reorganize the country, it should not be done by Zhao Wen's rebellion. He is just a subordinate, and he is committing crimes below! "

"The next crime is the next one? Hehe, it's so funny. Let me ask you, how do you think the people in Xuanzhen are doing now? You can walk around Xuanzhen, ask questions, and see what the people in Xuanzhen say, and see how they are. Do you prefer to live in Xuanzhen or in Daming?

Let me tell you, did you know what Xuanzhen looked like before the Chief Soldier came to Xuanzhen?At that time, Xuan Town was similar to other important towns on the Nine Borders. Although it had the title of an important town on the Nine Borders, it hadn't known how it had declined for a long time.

In Xuanzhen at that time, military households and ordinary people lived in dire straits. They often did not have enough to eat, and their clothes were covered with patches.Even so, many people don't even have clothes.

Some children are all thirteen or fourteen years old, because they have no clothes to wear, so they can only bare their buttocks.Every winter, many people starve to death.Let me ask you, if you were a citizen of Xuanzhen, would you still want to go back to your previous life? "Xue Zexi looked at Lu Xiangguan and said in a low voice.

"But no matter what, Zhao Wen is a rebel, he is always a rebel, he will always be a rebel." Lu Xiangguan said sarcastically.

Lu Xiangguan is a very traditional scholar. In his opinion, no matter what reason Zhao Wen has, he is a traitor. No matter how he conceals it, he cannot cover it up.

"Hehe, this world is not only the world of Ming Dynasty, but also the world of the people in the world. Do you know how many people in the world are living in dire straits? Do you know how many people freeze to death every winter because they don't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes? ?
Do you think you are a loyal minister?You are nothing, if you are a loyal minister, why didn't you go shopping with Jiannu when Jiannu invaded the capital?All of them can only recite poems and compose odes, and they can only squat at the end and talk about it. You are not loyal, you are foolish and loyal, and you are trying to gain fame.

If there is no Lord Chief Soldier, once Jiannu enters the customs, the whole world will perish at that time.Are you willing to subjugate the country or the world?

If Mr. Zong Bing reorganizes the country, only Daming will perish, but the world will not change at all, and it will even become better than before.

If the slaves enter the customs, the sandalwood enters the Central Plains, and the Huaxia sinks, the world will perish at that time, just like the Yuan Dynasty, you and I are just the bottom of the untouchables!
From ancient times to the present, I don't know how many dynasties have passed. Except for the former Yuan Dynasty, everything has been inherited.

Let me tell you, the change of dynasties is unstoppable, it is the general trend of the world.The Ming Dynasty has been in the world for more than 200 years and nearly 300 years. This length is not short in history, and it is time for a change! "

Xue Zexi spoke fiercely, constantly refuting Lu Xiangguan.

Lu Xiangsheng sat next to Lu Xiangguan, listening to the conversation between the two without interrupting.

Lu Xiangsheng's expression was sometimes puzzled, sometimes blank, and sometimes dignified.

After Xue Zexi finished speaking, he picked up the teapot on the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it on his own.

Lu Xiangsheng and Lu Xiangjin fell into silence, thinking about what Xue Zexi said just now.

As for Lu Xiangguan, he still wanted to refute, but he really couldn't think of any words to refute Xue Zexi.

Lu Xiangsheng kept thinking in his heart. In Lu Xiangsheng's view, Zhao Wen's rebellion was rebellion, no matter how you say it, it was rebellion.

But when he came to Xuan Town today and saw the situation in Xuan Town and Xue Zexi's words, Lu Xiangsheng's heart also began to waver.

"Yes, this world is not only the world of Ming Dynasty, but also the world of the people of the world. The saints once said that the people are the most important, the community is second, and the king is the least. Doesn't this mean that the most important thing in the world is the people?

There is no difference between the country of Ming Dynasty and the country of former Yuan, former Song and former Tang. The only difference is that the people in China are different.

I am a subject of Ming Dynasty, but I am also a subject of the world..."

Lu Xiangsheng kept thinking in his heart, and his mentality began to change.

In fact, since Lu Xiangsheng set foot on the land of Xuanzhen, Lu Xiangsheng's mentality has begun to change, but he doesn't know it.

Xue Zexi finished the last level of tea in the teacup and put the teacup on the table.

Xue Zexi coughed twice, and said: "I don't tell you what Xuanzhen looks like now, isn't the look of Xuanzhen now what we scholars want to see?

Isn't what we scholars seek is the stability of the world, the prosperity of the people, and the wisdom of the emperor?Now Xuanzhen is stable, the people are rich, and the commander-in-chief is also very wise.

Under the command of Lord Zongbing, I dare not say that everyone is a capable and wise person, but they are definitely more than twice as good as the officials of the imperial court.

If the world can be stabilized, the people will be prosperous, and the glory of the Three Generations can be restored, what is the point of being a traitor?
After the world is reorganized by Lord Zongbing, Jieshi will definitely regain the glory of the rule of the three generations.At that time, anyone who follows Mr. Zongbing will definitely leave his name in history and pass it on through the ages! "

"The rule of three generations? Can the rule of three generations really be realized?" Lu Xiangsheng looked at Xue Zexi and asked.

In the eyes of ancient scholars, the rule of three generations is the largest and most famous prosperity in history.

In ancient times, scholars with aspirations and ideals all wanted to see the emergence of the rule of three generations, and Lu Xiangsheng was no exception.

"Isn't it possible? You can see a leopard in the middle of a tube, and you can see the whole picture from one spot. Couldn't Xuanzhen today be compared to the rule of three generations?" Xue Zexi asked rhetorically.

When Lu Xiangsheng heard this, he became silent again.

To be honest, Lu Xiangsheng has never seen a scene like Xuanzhen.

There is not a single hungry person in the city, all the people are wearing new clothes and have smiles on their faces.

Lu Xiangsheng has never seen or heard of the prosperity of the people in Xuan Town. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, it would be hard for him to believe that there would be such a scene in the world.

"There are no hungry people in the city, the people are rich, courteous, and the atmosphere is extraordinary. There is nothing in the whole world that can compare with it." Lu Xiangsheng said slowly with a deep breath.

While a few people were talking, the door was opened from the outside, and a few waiters came in with dinner plates.

"Gentlemen, your food has arrived!" A waiter brought the plate in his hand to the table and took off the food on it.

After the meals were arranged neatly, Xue Zexi waved his hands at them, "Go out!"

Xiao Er bowed respectfully to several people, and then walked out.

Xue Zexi looked at the food on the table, but didn't move his chopsticks in a hurry.

"You don't live in Xuanzhen, so you don't know what Xuanzhen is like today, so I will introduce it to you in detail.

In fact, I also rely on you guys to be extraordinary, not like ordinary people, and after I met you, I felt very hit-and-miss, that's why I brought you here. Notify the government and arrest him! "Xue Zexi looked at Lu Xiangsheng and told the reason why he brought them here.

"Today's Xuan Town..."

During the next two or so hours, Xue Zexi introduced all aspects of Xuanzhen to Lu Xiangsheng and the others.

Lu Xiangsheng stared at Xue Zexi, not daring to be in a trance for a moment, and quietly listened to Xue Zexi's voice.

Among them, if you encounter something you don't understand, you can ask.

Regarding Lu Xiangsheng's inquiry, Xue Zexi explained it to him in detail.

Because I listened carefully, I didn't cook the food all the time.

In the end, the food was completely cold.

When the sun began to set on the western mountain, Xue Zexi stood up, and cupped his hands at Lu Xiangsheng and the others, "Let's stop here today, it's already here, I should go back, I invite you for today's meal , I will notify the shopkeeper later and let them arrange accommodation for you."

Lu Xiangsheng did not refuse either. He stood up and bowed back, "In that case, thank you very much. I haven't asked your name yet!"

"Xue Zexi, who was originally from Tongzhou, Zhili, has been in Xuanzhen for four or five years!" Xue Zexi replied.

"This is Lu Xiangsheng, this is my younger brother Lu Xiangguan and Lu Xiangjin!" Lu Xiangsheng pointed to Lu Xiangguan and Lu Xiangjin.

"Stop talking, it's going to be dark soon, I'll take my leave first!" Xue Zexi cupped his hands at several people, and then walked out.

Lu Xiangsheng and others hurriedly followed behind Xue Zexi and sent Xue Zexi out.

When he came back, the shopkeeper arranged the rooms for several people.

The place where Lu Xiangsheng lives is in the backyard. It is a suite with three bedrooms, one living room and one bathroom. The layout of the room is similar to that of later generations.

Today, the layout of suites in Xuanzhen inns is similar to that of later generations. This layout first started from the post houses in Xuanzhen. Later, these inns in the city looked good, so it spread.

Lu Xiangsheng stood in front of the living room window. He looked at the yard outside the window, and kept thinking about what Xue Zexi said today.

Lu Xiangguan walked behind Lu Xiangsheng, "Brother, you are not bewitched by today's Xue Zexi, are you? This person is a person who deceives people with lies. Everything he said seems to make sense, but it is all nonsense!"

Lu Xiangsheng turned around and looked at Lu Xiangguan, "Is it confusing or not? I just think what Xue Zexi said today makes sense. Although there are still some things I haven't figured out, I have already grasped the main points. I guess it won't be long." It takes a long time to think it through thoroughly.”

"I said brother, you can't listen to Xue Zexi's bewitching, we are from Ming Dynasty. The most important thing for us scholars is integrity, integrity must not be lost, if we lose integrity at this time, future generations will scold us to death." Seeing that Lu Xiangsheng was a little shaken, Lu Xiangguan hurriedly persuaded him.

Lu Xiangsheng did not answer Lu Xiangguan directly, but instead asked: "I ask you a question!"

"What's the problem?" Lu Xiangguan looked at Lu Xiangsheng suspiciously.

Lu Xiangsheng said: "If you were asked to choose one in front of the people of the world and His Majesty, what would you choose?"

"Why would Big Brother ask such a question?" Lu Xiangguan asked puzzled.

Lu Xiangguan really couldn't answer this question. If he chose the emperor, he would definitely bear the name of a courtier.From ancient times to the present, almost everyone who bears the name of a mesmerizing minister will end badly.

People scolded people when they were alive, and they will be scolded in the history books when they are dead.

But if you choose the common people, for the emperor, it will become a disloyal minister.

From Lu Xiangguan's point of view, no matter what he chooses, it's not easy to choose.

"Do you know Haigangfeng Haibistand? This person chose the common people back then, and the public security notice shocked the government and the public, scolded Emperor Sejong bloody, and refuted Emperor Sejong as worthless. Logically speaking, like this His ministers should be treacherous ministers, but at that time the government and the opposition wanted to keep him.

Emperor Sejong hated him so much, but there was nothing he could do.

Yan Song chose the emperor back then, and he believed that Emperor Sejong obeyed, and he was Emperor Sejong's kowtow.

Who do you think is the loyal and the traitor of the two? " Lu Xiangsheng asked.

"Needless to say, it must be Hai Rui Hai's pen holder. Yan Song is just a lucky person, a man who is fascinated, how can he compare with Hai Rui?" Lu Xiang said without even thinking about it.

Lu Xiangsheng smiled slightly: "But Yan Song is loyal to Emperor Sejong. Emperor Sejong can do whatever he wants. He is the most loyal subject of Emperor Sejong. Isn't this loyalty?"

When Lu Xiangguan heard this, he fell silent.

Looking at the silent Lu Xiangguan, Lu Xiangsheng said again: "Yan Song is a loyal minister of the emperor, not a loyal minister of the people, not a loyal minister of the world. Therefore, you naturally designate Yan Song as a traitor.

Hai Rui is a traitor to Emperor Sejong, but you think Hai Rui is a loyal minister.

Think about the meaning of this slowly, and tell me after you think it through! "

Lu Xiang looked at his elder brother, silently not knowing what to say.

"Is it important that one family and one surname are important in the world or the people in the world? Xue Zexi is right. The change of dynasties is a cycle of heaven and cannot be stopped.

When Emperor Taizu Gao rebelled against the Yuan Dynasty, this was also a rebellion, but why did people never say this?

It has been nearly 300 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and the long-standing malpractices have been accumulated for a long time. If Zhao Wen does not break through and start again, even if Zhao Wen kills all the rebels in the world, when Zhao Wen is old and can no longer lift a knife, the world will become like this again.

Now the weapon in Zhao Wen's hands is so powerful that no one in the world can stop it.Coupled with Zhao Wen's governance of Xuanzhen, we can see his attitude towards the people of the world.

Forget it, I won't say these words, you can think about it slowly! "Lu Xiangsheng waved at Lu Xiangguan and walked towards his room.

Lu Xiang looked at the yard outside the window, his brain was running fast, and he kept thinking about Lu Xiangsheng's words.

Lu Xiangjin stood beside Lu Xiangguan, and he looked at Lu Xiangsheng who walked into the room, also lost in thought.
