Chapter 464: Yang Ming’s Xinxue, the last step on the ladder to heaven

Zhu Qiyu's vision of the future world is not optimistic.

As early as the 40th year of Jingtai's reign, he had a premonition that the emperor's system would come to an end sooner or later.

Therefore, he was planning a way out for the Zhu family.

The accumulation of huge wealth started from that time.

Later, the wealth was donated, mainly because the amount of wealth was too huge, and the descendants were not able to live up to expectations and could not keep this huge wealth.

Therefore, Zhu Qiyu decisively donated it.

He was also fully prepared for the arrangements for the Zhu family.

Worldly power, he wants.

He does not let go of the power in the mortal world.

In the 60th year of Jingtai's reign, all his countries sent back their princes' grandsons who had no inheritance rights. He selected those who were smart and wanted to make a difference. After a few years of training, he placed them in the Zonglu Division.

Many officials in the Zonglu Department of the Ming Dynasty were named Zhu.

But the leaders of each faction were not named Zhu.

Zhu Qiyu couldn't do it so obviously. He had to do it step by step and penetrate it bit by bit. Anyway, he had so many grandchildren and he didn't even know how many great-grandchildren he had.

Forget about his name, he couldn't even remember his grandson's name.

It will take fifty years or a hundred years to finally penetrate into the six major religions.

The people of Shu listened to his words.

In time, give up worldly power and retreat into the background.

The sudden death of Emperor Zhengde also contributed to the decline of Ming Dynasty's hegemony in the world, because Ming Dynasty fell into chaos and had no time to manage international affairs.

Akito is best at internal fighting.

It's everywhere.

Zhu Houying had just died, his ashes had just been raised, and Emperor Jiajing lacked the ability to take charge of the overall situation. The various factions in the DPRK and China started fighting directly for the benefit of the post-war.

Really more exciting than War of the Worlds.

During the world war, everyone was like a coward, no one dared to move forward; when it was time to distribute the benefits, the one who had made the greatest contribution was killed first, and they happily distributed the benefits.

The process was not pleasant at all, very bloody and ugly.

Zhu Zaihan is also a smart man.

When the officials in the court were trying to break their minds, he quietly moved to the Yangxin Palace and executed the palace officials around his father one after another to replace him with his people.

He secretly wooed the military and always nodded to the distribution of interests in the DPRK.

It stands to reason that the royal family invested the most this time and should allocate the most, but Emperor Jiajing did not ask for it, but waited for them to finish dividing and eat the leftovers.

But during this period, Emperor Jiajing won over the army and asked Wang Shouren to come out and sit in charge of the court for him.

In the fourth year of Jiajing, after Emperor Jiajing took control of power, he began to attack the courtiers with his sword. Those courtiers who were allocated huge benefits were all killed by him.

He relied on old ministers such as Wang Xian and Wang Shouren, reused backbone ministers such as Gao Gong, Xu Jie, and Yan Song, and promoted new ministers such as Zhang Juzheng and Hu Zongxian.

In the fifth year of Jiajing, Zhu Zaihen had complete control of the government.

He is more ruthless than his father.

His father, Zhu Houying, was so preoccupied with government affairs that he was so tired that he vomited blood, yet he was killed. As an emperor who held imperial power, it was a joke.

In the five years before he ascended the throne, he was so frightened that he almost knelt down in front of the courtiers.

In the second year of Jiajing's reign, he abolished the kneeling ceremony at the Great Court Meeting, leaving only the kneeling ceremony when worshiping the ancestral temple, and no longer kneeling at other times.

At that time, the people were strangely quiet, and no one objected.

It is equivalent to saying that there is no need to kneel down when seeing the emperor on any occasion, and there will be no kneeling ceremony in the world.

In the fourth year of Jiajing, some scholars actually proposed that the abolition of kneeling ceremony was a manifestation of the progress of the times. In this era, there are no more slaves and masters, and all people are created equal.

Because Emperor Jiajing went on a massacre in the court, killing all the courtiers who bullied him, including those he suspected of killing his father.

He wanted to resume kneeling, but was rejected by the people.

In the fifth year of Jiajing, the powerful Emperor Jiajing launched a series of reforms to take back imperial power.

However, in the fifth year of Jiajing reign, Wang Shouren submitted his resignation and returned to his hometown.

He went out to the court again just to repay the old emperor's favor, protect the Zhu family emperor, and go on another journey.

His life can be described as a period of success as a young man, a rough middle age, enlightenment in his later years, and now he has become a saint.

It was almost as predicted by the old emperor.

After Zhu Jianji succeeded to the throne, he ostensibly reused him, but actually stuffed him into a corner and didn't reuse him at all. In two years, he would be kicked to another place.

He was also unlucky. There was a fraud case in the local area, and he was implicated in it. He was demoted first, and received a bad evaluation from the Beijing inspection. He was rounded up and flattened in the local area, and his life was very difficult.

The key is that he often went to court to tell the emperor about local affairs, which made Zhu Jianjian hate him and local officials even more.

He forgot that he could say it before because Zhu Qiyu protected him. He was Zhu Qiyu's secretary, and Zhu Qiyu loved him like a grandson.

So no one dared to wear small shoes for him.

It was different now. Zhu Jianjian ignored him and was unwilling to look at his superiors. The local officials guessed the emperor's thoughts and must have given him little shoes to wear.

Wang Shouren spent twelve years in the local area, and in the seventeenth year of Chenghua, he was drafted into the army.

Zhu Jianji took him with him during the Western Expedition.

Wang Shouren really showed his talents on the battlefield.

But because he often gave advice, he was disliked by Zhu Jianji. During the entire Western Expedition, in terms of ranking of merit, Wang Shouren ranked among the top three.

But he was spoiled by the old emperor. He sees things from a different perspective than ordinary people, always asks questions to the point, and is critical of many things.

Although it was already perfect in the eyes of others, Wang Shouren was still not satisfied.

In the past, when the old emperor was here, he was very willing to listen to Wang Shouren's words, which developed Wang Shouren's harsh, harsh, and critical character.

Wang Shouren may not even know that this is the old emperor deliberately cultivating his character.

People with such a personality cannot survive in the workplace, let alone officialdom.

Therefore, Wang Shouren obviously had great military exploits, but Zhu kicked him away when he saw that he was an official, and deliberately left him in the Western Regions to guard the Western Regions.

After Zhu Youyi ascended the throne, he let himself go. Wang Shouren was completely out of tune with the court during the Hongzhi period.

Therefore, in the third year of Hongzhi, he resigned and went into seclusion.

In the next few years, he continued to visit famous mountains and rivers while studying his own theories. Zhu Jianji had been writing the old emperor's theory for more than 20 years, but he had not yet completed it.

After Zhu Youyi ascended the throne, he stopped studying it at all during the Hongzhi period.

It may be that the theory has reached a dead end, or it may be that Zhu Youyi no longer has the ambition he had when he was young. Whatever the reason, he will definitely not study the theory anymore.

Zhu Qiyu's biggest regret before his death was that his grandson threw him into the trash can.

Zhu Youyi let herself go.

The court is only focused on fighting for power and profit. Who is willing to calm down and study an effective theory?

Others don’t study it.

Wang Shouren came to study.

But he can't follow the old emperor's path, that would be disrespectful to the old emperor.

He wants to follow a path that belongs to him, Wang Shouren.

From the fifth year of Hongzhi to the fifteenth year of Hongzhi, he had been on the road of thinking. He thought while walking, and finally enlightened him in a place called Longchangyi.

He lived in Longchangyi for seven years.

In the third year of Zhengde's reign, Yangming's philosophy of mind came into being.

After ten years of dissemination, in the thirteenth year of Zhengde, Yangming's philosophy of mind became a prominent school of the world, and Wang Yangming became a saint of the world.

In fact, the main reason why Wang Yangming became a saint in history was that the top officials in the court were his followers, so they promoted it to him.

There is also a historical background. At that time, Confucianism was in decline. It was Wang Shouren's Yangming Theory of Mind that made Confucianism shine again.

Therefore, Yangming's theory of mind was promoted to the extreme.

As for Wang Shouren in this time and space, first of all, he lacks historical background, because there are so many people who want to be a saint now, and various ideas are rampant in newspapers.

Relying on the Yangming Mind Theory of the original time and space, Wang Shouren probably wouldn't even be able to make a splash.

A saint is a saint.

Wang Shouren is Wang Shouren. He can bring together all thoughts and merge them into Yangming's theory of mind.

New thought in the new era, this new thought, has actually been using the theories of Qiu Jun and Xiang Zhong, but these theories have been used for more than fifty years and are already very backward.

In recent years, many people have wanted to perfect this theory, including the old emperor who also wanted to be such a saint.

However, no one can completely coordinate these things, and countless people have been studying for decades, but they have not been able to do it.

Wang Shouren did it.

He became famous instantly because he renovated old ideas, coordinated new ideas, and summarized them into Yangming Xinxue.

However, in this new set of ideas, the old emperor is everywhere.

It can be seen how much the founder of this theory admires Zhu Qiyu, and he praises Zhu Qiyu in every word.

This is Zhu Qiyu’s last backup plan!
Use the sanctified Wang Yangming to help him become a god!

Why can Zhu Qiyu become a god?

Because there are two saints who are praising him, Qiu Jun in front of him and Wang Yangming in the back. In their thoughts, Zhu Qiyu is praised everywhere.

People who learn this set of thoughts will also fall in love with this emperor after understanding Zhu Qiyu.

This is Zhu Qiyu’s charm that transcends time and space.

The more people learn, they will naturally respect Zhu Qiyu. Hundreds or even hundreds of years later, Zhu Qiyu will become a god.

Wang Yangming is the last step on his way to ascension.

For this theory, Wang Shouren became a prominent scholar in the world.

Therefore, in the fourth year of Jiajing, he was ordered by Emperor Jiajing to enter the court as an official again. His main purpose of becoming an official again this time was to promote his own doctrines, promote his own ideas, and make Yangming's philosophy of mind become a prominent school.

Like Xue Xuan, his mind is not on officialdom, but on his own thoughts.

Therefore, after Emperor Jiajing stabilized the imperial court, Wang Yangming resigned and went into seclusion. He was awarded the title of Taifu, but he did not leave the capital, but gave lectures in the capital.

Wang Yangming, who was in his seventies, began his lecturing career.

He recruited many disciples, followed Qiu Jun's example, and recruited some extremely qualified children so that they could become officials in the court and continue to promote his ideas.

For an idea to become prominent, it takes time to slowly ferment.

As long as his thoughts are perfect enough, he will never be too late for a good meal.

Wang Yangming will use his life to carry forward Yangming's philosophy of mind, and he will also use his life to help the old emperor become a god.
