I'm only seven years old, Lao Zhu, you let me supervise the country?

Chapter 301 The wind has changed!The vassal king moves!
Zhu Yunxuan's attitude was firm.

Neo-Confucianism cannot continue to prevail in the Ming Dynasty!Only by borrowing the shell of Xinxue can one develop a new theory belonging to the Ming Dynasty!
Only then can we truly protect the Ming Dynasty forever!

If there was a dispute with Lao Zhu about other matters, Zhu Yunxuan would probably give in to make Lao Zhu happy.

It's like being kind to the feudal king.

Zhu Yunzhen has regressed more than a step. Otherwise, if he had followed the normal approach, as long as he had the idea of ​​​​fighting for reserves in his mind, in order to avoid future troubles.

It is absolutely impossible to let some feudal kings live!
But Zhu Yunxuan took Lao Zhu's thoughts into consideration and gave in. He treated all the royal family members well.

Even more so, King Qi was not held accountable for his crimes.

But today, Zhu Yunzhen must not retreat!

above.

Lao Zhu's expression changed, and he simply stared at Zhu Yunxi, but he revealed a power that was not angry and self-inflicted, oppressing Zhu Yunxi!
"Zhen'er, you have to think clearly!"

"Do you want to fight against us?"

The anger in Lao Zhu's heart could no longer be contained, and he slapped the table with a sound like thunder!

"Do you think we were too gentle to you before?!"

Zhu Yunxian was silent.

He took a step back, slowly knelt down, bowed his hands, and looked directly at Lao Zhu.

He said with unprecedented seriousness: "Grandpa Huang, your kindness to Fu'er is seen in Fu'er's eyes and will be remembered in his heart."

"Just this time, for the sake of the future of the Ming Dynasty, please forgive me for not giving in!"

"Neo-Confucianism must be defeated!"

Lao Zhu was so angry that he laughed instead.

Laugh three times.

He said: "Okay! Okay! Okay!"

"It seems like you really have stiff wings! You don't even listen to what we say!"

Lao Zhu's eyes suddenly turned cold.

He said: "Then please retreat. I'm tired of being alone in Yangshan and want to go back to the palace."

"Tomorrow morning, don't miss it!"

Lao Zhu actually has no intention of returning to Yangshan and wants to return to the palace. This is to take back power!Force Zhu Yunzhen to admit defeat!
But Zhu Yunzhen didn't look like giving up at all.

"Grandpa Huang, Xi'er has withdrawn."

"Zhen'er will not give up on the dispute between Neo-Confucianism and Xinxue. Xinxue is the future of Ming Dynasty."

"Neo-Confucianism is not!"

Zhu Yunzhen stood up, still bowing in a salute gesture, bowed and backed away, and then turned around and left until he was out of the hall.

The back is lonely and desolate.

In the hall, it was a mess, and Lao Zhu sat alone on the high platform with a sad and lonely look in his eyes.

The grandfather and grandson actually broke up in a quarrel!

……

The next day.

early morning.

Zhu Yunxuan arrived at Fengtian Hall early, but this time, he did not sit at the top, but entered together with the ministers and officials.

Wait for the ministers and officials to stand still.

Under everyone's surprised and uncertain gazes, Lao Zhu appeared and slowly sat on the dragon chair.

A pair of sharp eyes, looking directly at everyone!

The ministers, officials, civil and military nobles below couldn't help but look at Zhu Yunzhen who was at the front, and they didn't understand why the grandson was not sitting on it today.

But Your Majesty?

It is clear that His Majesty has delegated power to the Taisun to supervise the country and take charge of everything in the Ming Dynasty.

There is a vague intention of abdicating the throne and giving up power, living his own unrestrained life in Yangshan and becoming the Supreme Emperor.

But now, His Majesty is back!
Could it be that...an unbelievable guess emerged in everyone's mind!

Soon, morning begins.

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

A sound like a mountain roaring and a tsunami sounded.

Lao Zhu was sitting high in the Dragon Court, overlooking the ministers, and raised his hand and said: "Everyone is safe."

Immediately, there was another tsunami.

"Thank you!"

The momentum was much greater than when Zhu Yunzhen was at the top.

Obviously, the power and prestige accumulated by Lao Zhu during his decades in charge of the Ming Dynasty is far beyond what Zhu Yunzhen can compare with!
Just having Lao Zhu sitting there made everyone cheer up unconsciously, straighten their spines, and not dare to slack off!
This is Lao Zhu, Emperor Hongwu!
The founding monarch of the Ming Dynasty!
Far from being comparable to the current Zhu Yunxian...

Zhu Yunzhen sighed slightly in his heart. He wanted to fight with Lao Zhu, but he was really far away from it. Just the first step in going to court gave him all kinds of power.

Feeling the gaze from above, Zhu Yunzhen knew that it was Lao Zhu looking at him.

I want to see if I have any intention of repenting.

By the way, beat yourself up and let yourself know who has the final say in this Ming Dynasty!
But Zhu Yunzhen had no choice.If you give in at this time, even if Lao Zhulong controls Bintian, he will not have the chance to completely eliminate Neo-Confucianism after taking power.

Because at that time, countless Neo-Confucianists would use filial piety to suppress Zhu Yunzhen!

And the supreme filial piety is like the glorious way of heaven that cannot be disobeyed, and Zhu Yunzhen can never turn around again!I can only agree with the legitimacy of Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism in the Ming Dynasty!
So at this time, Zhu Yunxian could not give in anymore!
The heavy pressure made Zhu Yunzhen breathless.

But no matter what, Zhu Yunzhen had to survive this disaster. When his biggest backer no longer supported him, Zhu Yunzhen's seemingly good situation suddenly turned into a dead end!
And if you want to reverse this situation, you want to break it.

In the final analysis, it has to be put on Lao Zhu, so that Lao Zhu can change his mind and let Lao Zhu support him again.

It's just... Zhu Yunxuan doesn't know what Lao Zhu is thinking at this moment...

Zhu Yunzhen spent the entire morning in despair.

The civil and military officials and powerful lords behind Zhu Yunzhen, no matter how stupid they were, felt that something was wrong between Zhu Yunzhen and Lao Zhu.

They couldn't help but speculate.

Could it be that Taisun had angered Lao Zhu?

It shouldn't be... His great-grandson is talented and intelligent, and he can govern the country well. To put it bluntly, even if Lao Zhu came to govern the Ming Dynasty, he would not be able to develop the Ming Dynasty so well!
It’s just that interests are never the core of power.

Deterrence and oppression are!
The person who can make people feel afraid, the person whose life and death are controlled by him, is the real superior!
Therefore, Lao Zhu's status in the Ming Dynasty is still far from being comparable to that of Zhu Yunxu.

Once there is a conflict between Lao Zhu and Zhu Yunzhen, the civil and military officials will definitely be on Lao Zhu's side.

Only the confidants of the great grandson who are completely tied to the same front as the great grandson will spare no effort to help the great grandson.

The whole morning seemed calm, but in fact there was an undercurrent.

After the morning dynasty ended, anyone with knowledge knew that Taisun might lose power!
After a secret investigation, it was discovered that the person behind this was none other than Fang Xiaoru!

The reason found is even simpler.

Just because Fang Xiaoru didn't understand the principle of making a fortune silently, he had already hosted a banquet at home, and his conversation was full of Neo-Confucianism.

He looks like he wants to regain control of the Imperial College and rectify the academic style in the world!
It can be seen at a glance that the conflict between Lao Zhu and Zhu Yunzhen is probably the conflict between Neo-Confucianism and Xinxue!
Because His Highness Taisun had previously wanted to rectify scholarship and overthrow a group of Neo-Confucianists with Fang Xiaoru as the core.

Expelled Neo-Confucianism from Confucian orthodoxy.

But now, the direction of the wind suddenly changed. Not only was Fang Xiaoru not in any danger, but he began to become extremely happy and cheerful all day long.

The status is no longer shaky.

Instead, it stabilized. In this battle between psychology and Neo-Confucianism, Fang Xiaoru actually had the upper hand again!
Many of the views Zhu Yunxuan put forward before have become a pile of waste paper!
He was thrown into the garbage dump by countless scholars.

The study of the mind... has once again become a niche knowledge, and no one cares about it. In the Imperial College, no one cares about the study of the mind again.

Instead, he continued to study 'Heavenly Principles'.

I hope that I will become a saint by studying, memorize a lot of great principles, and become a great Confucian, so that I can speak for the principles of heaven.

Say something lightly: Starving to death is a small matter, but losing integrity is a big deal.

Countless women can be imprisoned in pig cages and forced to remain chaste and widowed.

In the capital, because Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism regained the upper hand, the social atmosphere suddenly became much duller.

One sentence: Know first, then act.

This caused countless scholars to bury their heads in books, focusing on knowledge rather than practice. Moreover, because Neo-Confucianism focused on natural principles, scholars gradually began to value morality over knowledge.

But this morality is hypocritical morality!
How can there be so many saints in the world!Just reading can make you a saint?It’s nothing more than cultivating a group of hypocritical gentlemen!

The dull social atmosphere has caused many merchants' products to no longer sell well.

The goods produced by the factory began to find no market.

Because of these well-fed Neo-Confucianists who had nothing to do, they stood up and criticized Zhu Yunxuan's behavior of opening a factory - preserving the laws of nature and destroying human desires!

You little people, as long as you have enough to eat, how can you consume more of other commodities?

What is this if not human desire!
Stand on the moral high ground and criticize businessmen.

But the funny thing is that although the goods produced by the factories run by the landlords are gradually finding no sales among the common people, the sales volume has not decreased much, but the prices have increased slightly.

Because these noble Neo-Confucians, although they verbally criticize human desire.

But they also like the products produced by these factories!
Everyone is buying them secretly.

Even if someone finds out, he will use his own theory to get around it, which is double standards to the extreme!
It’s also hypocritical to the extreme!
For a time, all the people in the capital missed the time when Neo-Confucianism was suppressed and Zhu Yunzhen was in charge of the country.

At that time, the social atmosphere was lively, people could do a lot of things they wanted to do, and they also had places to spend their money.

It's not like now, even buying some food is controlled.

If you buy too much, you will be scolded.

To say that this is not in accordance with the laws of nature is just human desire!It should be cleared!

The people hope that His Highness the Grand Sun can return to power, instead of being like now, with an extra shackle on his head and no freedom.

In fact, the people of the capital could have endured this shackles.

Because they have never seen the light.

But who allowed Zhu Yunzhen to bring them this glimmer of light?
But the worries of the people in the capital were of no use, and even Zhu Yunzhen's confidants were of little use. In the face of Lao Zhu's intimidation, they did not dare to do anything.

I dare not say anything.

On the contrary, many vassal kings began to take action, and each one of them seemed to have seen hope and made some changes!

He spent the whole day wooing courtiers, and even went to Fang Xiaoru's home from time to time.

Treat Zhu Yunzhen as if he were nothing!
It's as if Zhu Yunzhen, the grandson, does not exist!
Zhu Yunzhen's status has reached a shaky point!And this... is the result of his confrontation with Lao Zhu!It was also Lao Zhu who beat him!
Let him know who is calling the shots in Ming Dynasty now!
As Zhu Yunzhen's status began to waver.

There is even a rumor that began to circulate in the public - His Majesty has plans to establish a new crown prince!

Lao Zhu is not satisfied with Zhu Yunzhen!
I want to change to a new crown prince!
