Chapter 315 Queen Ma Lectures

As soon as the words fell to the ground, there was silence.

Whether it was Zhu Yuanzhang here who took a breath of cold air, or even Zhu Biao who was cleaning on the other side, he seemed to be waking up from a dream.

The father and son were enlightened and suddenly enlightened.

Realized the essence of it.

"I see, the girl is still attentive!"

Zhu Yuanzhang put his elbows on the table, clasped his chin hard with his fingertips, and murmured:

"We thought we understood, but in fact it was just superficial."

"Mr. Lin patiently guided us again and again, but in the end we still couldn't pierce the window paper."

"It is precisely because the three, six, and nine equal divisions are so clear that people make comparisons and create gaps, which leads to constant competition."

"No wonder Mr. Lin has repeatedly emphasized that 'the world is equal'. This time we finally figured it out."

Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's emotion, Empress Ma couldn't help but sigh: '

"Yes, that's it."

"Chongpachi, you should have discovered it a long time ago."

"The real way to break the situation is that because resources are abundant, it doesn't make much difference whether we fight for them or not. People nowadays value rights because resources are scarce. If you don't fight for them, there will be nothing to eat."

"That's why Mr. Lin advocates opening up new territories and participating in the struggle for hegemony among hundreds of countries on the 'big map'."

"For the sake of our people of Ming Dynasty, and even more for the descendants of Yan and Huang, we will obtain more resources for distribution."

"Mr. Fei Lin is violent and bellicose, and has no regard for the suffering of the world."

"Do you know what I mean?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was thoughtful and nodded firmly, fully agreeing with his wife's point of view.

Lin Che did not have no desires in the true sense, but she still cared about the country and nation.

Whether it’s your own realm or what you’re pursuing.

Far beyond the scope of worldly understanding.

Walk consistently on the road, never being disturbed by any external factors.

Fang is the posture of a saint.

Think of this.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but reveal a wry smile: "What the girl said is absolutely true."

"We have selfish motives. We are still doing it for the Zhu family, but Mr. Lin is doing it for all living beings. In terms of mind and structure, we have lost a lot to others."

"No wonder we still can't understand the true meaning."

"If the hearts of the monarch and his ministers are not in the same direction, how can they talk about two strands of rope being twisted into one."

"Ugh--"

"We shouldn't."

Empress Ma snorted in disgust at Zhu Yuanzhang's repeated lamentations, not bothering to listen to his tasteless nonsense.

But he saw her turning sideways and looking at the prince not far away, and said without any doubt.

"Boss, you don't dare to imitate your father."

"Cultivation of one's moral character, organization of one's family, governance of the country, and peace of the world. Now that you have achieved that position, you must take responsibility for the people of the world, instead of treating everyone as a small family."

"Remember?"

Zhu Biao was inexplicably embarrassed when he heard this, but he still saluted respectfully: "It's the Queen Mother."

"My son remembers."

Instead of worrying about whether my father is angry, it is better to stabilize my mother.

After all, he can still tell clearly who has the final say in the Zhu family.

See this.

Zhu Yuanzhang's nose was almost crooked with anger, and his big neck was even red from holding it in. He suddenly felt that his old face could no longer be displayed.

However, before he could get angry, Queen Ma's gentle voice sounded:

"So far, human nature has not changed from ancient to modern times. There are only differences in interests and systems."

"If we advocate following ancient laws, there will be no conflicts between fathers and sons in this world."    "What's more, it is impossible for a monarch to love his people more than parents love their children. This is a very straightforward truth."

Looking at the dumbfounded Lao Zhu, Queen Ma smiled faintly:

"Am I right?"

"... "

Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head away due to the rebuke, pretending that it had nothing to do with him that he didn't hear.

Empress Ma couldn't help but shook her head slightly, but she didn't have the heart to make things difficult for her, and said helplessly:

"When Lord Lu saw his subjects being tortured, he shed tears for them. He called this benevolent government, but in fact the tears were just tears."

"You should be punished if you deserve it."

"Besides, people throughout the ages have been accustomed to being subordinated and powerful, and are rarely influenced by benevolence and righteousness."

"Even a saint like Confucius only had more than seventy disciples."

After a pause, Queen Ma continued:

"In the system of the State of Lu, Duke Ai of Lu was the king and Confucius was the minister."

"If we want to talk about benevolence and righteousness, Duke Ai of Lu must be inferior to Confucius, but Confucius surrendered to Duke Ai of Lu."

"Obviously Confucius did not succumb to benevolence and righteousness, but succumbed to the power of Duke Ai of Lu."

"The logic of Confucianism is to make the monarch resemble Confucius and the people to resemble Confucius' disciples."

"This is definitely not possible."

"This is the underlying logic that Mr. Lin often talks about, and it is one of the fundamental reasons why Mr. Lin dislikes Confucianism so much."

After hearing Empress Ma's categorical analysis, the melancholy between Zhu Yuanzhang's brows became a little heavier. He struggled with the melancholy for a while, but still did not interrupt.

"Suppose we had a bastard son."

Queen Ma straightened her body and said seriously:

"He did not listen to our advice, nor did he care about the accusations from his neighbors, nor did he pay attention to the teacher's teachings. Only when the imperial edict of punishment came before him did he feel afraid and regretful."

"It can be seen that kindness can only be exchanged for arrogance."

“It takes the power of his parents to make him surrender.

"I, a woman, have listened to Mr. Lin's lectures before. Why should you, the king of a country, listen to me?"

Queen Ma gently rubbed her eyebrows and said:

"For another example, if a piece of cloth of more than ten feet is thrown on the street, anyone who sees it will take action."

"But if it's gold water that has just melted, you wouldn't dare to attack even if the other party is a thief, right?"

“Therefore the rewards must be generous so that people will covet them, and the punishments must be severe so that people can be afraid.”

"In this way, no matter you are a good person or a bad person, you can naturally become a law-abiding person. This is the core of Legalist thought."

"but now…"

"Because he has meritorious service, he is rewarded with an official position, but he despises his position as an official. Because he refuses to be an official, he is alienated from him, but he is admired and does not envy fame and fortune."

"For those who have food and clothing without working, praise them for their ability; for those who can get official positions without any merit, praise them for their talents."

Empress Ma raised her voice and knocked on the table to bring Lao Zhu back to reality:

"This kind of ability and talent will only lead to the weakening of national power."

"Jungpachi."

"These are the root causes of Ming Dynasty."

"Mr. Lin has told you so much, haven't you listened at all?"

The words fall.

There was dead silence and silence.

Zhu Biao secretly glanced at his mother, full of admiration and wonder at the moment, thinking to himself: "Mr. Lin did not teach the emperor, but taught the queen."

"What's this called?"

There is no harm without comparison.

It's embarrassing to rub your bare buttocks and spin in circles.

Faced with Queen Ma's outspokenness, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but sigh secretly.

It's not that he didn't think about these things, it's just that he was a little too greedy, always thinking about once and for all being blessed forever.

However, the more you want, the more different you become.

Tie your hands and feet, and tie yourself up in a cocoon.
