Follow Zhu Yuanzhang to conquer the country

Chapter 247 China cannot live without Datong, otherwise it will be Yi Di!
For this reason, Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Fan Zhen and asked: "Mr. Fan, tell us the truth, are you also disgusted with the concept of Datong?"

Fan Zhen was startled after hearing this.

Zhu Yuanzhang said and walked towards Fan Zhen: "You are a scholar and have been a Confucian scholar for generations. You should know that the people are the most important. How can you also show disloyalty to Datong Society?"

"Ascend!"

"I don't feel disloyal to Datong Society!"

"Absolutely not!"

Fan Zhen didn't know how Zhu Yuanzhang could see through his true inner thoughts, and he knelt down in a panic, his whole body shaking like chaff.

Because he knew how ruthless Zhu Yuanzhang was.

"Don't deny it so quickly."

"It's not unreasonable for us to question you."

"You think about it, people who truly accept the idea of ​​Datong, how could they not resolutely refuse when Chen Youding said that he would only join us and not Datong Society, and would even be willing to bring him a message to ask us for instructions?"

As Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, he knelt down and looked at Fan Zhen: "What does this mean?"

"This shows that you hope that we are not really loyal to the Datong Society and only plan to abandon the Datong Society after the world is unified in the future."

"Otherwise, if you were loyal to Datong Society, you should have rejected Chen Youding at that time."

"We govern the country through society, and our loyalty is not to individuals, but only to the Datong Society."

"you forgot?"

"Or are you deliberately unwilling to be loyal to Datong Society, and are only willing to be loyal to us?"

After Zhu Yuanzhang finished asking, Fan Zhen was sweating profusely.

He had to admit that Zhu Yuanzhang was really terrifying!

Because he has never seen a person who can see through people's motives so quickly.

This made Fan Zhenru feel sad.

"stand up!"

"No kneeling!"

"You act so timid in front of us, but every time you do something, you are more bold than the last!"

"We haven't said we're going to give up the Datong Society yet. We've given up on the rules of the Datong Society one by one. We can't wait to cooperate with external forces to force us to give up the Datong Society!"

"If I really abandon Datong Society in the future and become the emperor of the world, will you also dare to openly fear me like a tiger, but secretly dare to do things such as torturing and killing people and even treason and rebellion behind my back?! "

Zhu Yuanzhang shouted at Fan Zhen, and then complained and questioned Fan Zhen.

Fan Zhen was now extremely frightened and panicked. He hurriedly cried: "Stop, please calm down! I never dare to have such thoughts, and I have no such thoughts. I just don't think so much!"

"I'm stupid."

"Stand up right now."

Fan Zhen stood up quickly as he spoke, but because his legs were weak, he fell to the ground again when he stood up.

This made him feel even more embarrassed: "I apologize, but I really can't stand up now."

"If you can't stand up, just sit on the ground."

"You said you didn't think much about it. It seems you are also stupid?"

As Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, he took the initiative to ask Fan Zhen again.

Fan Zhen said hurriedly: "Yes, I am stupid. I am not as smart as Mr. Zhang and others. I can't even do a mission well. I am willing to be dismissed." "Tell me about you."

"Which of you Confucian scholars has not been a scholar for generations, and which one has not read poetry and books for a long time? How come the more you read, the more stupid you become? Why are there not many who can compare with Mr. Zhang?"

"Chen Youding has the nerve to report such excessive conditions. Seeing what I mean, those who don't know think you don't take me seriously either, and think I'm a fool and easy to fool."

Zhu Yuanzhang pointed at Fan Zhen and said a few words, then stood up, put his hands on his hips and said: "You should continue to be an envoy. You are not suitable for anything else. We are afraid that you are really disloyal to Datong Society. For other things, it is easy to betray the secrets of Datong Society. I am afraid that I will take the opportunity to slander Datong Society when I return home."

"The superior Mingjian!"

"I am absolutely not disloyal to Datong Society!"

Fan Zhen replied with tears streaming down his face.

"That's just what we said."

"You bring a message to Chen Youding. The world can be without Zhu Yuanzhang, but it cannot be without Datong Society."

"We can only accept that the Datong Society was realized because of us, not that I became the emperor because of the Datong Society."

After Zhu Yuanzhang said this, he left Fan Zhen, ordered a court meeting, informed Zhang Cheng and others of Chen Youding's opinions, expressed his decision, and said:

"We are calling the princes to hold this court meeting, and I want to ask the princes if they also want to temporarily recognize the status of the Datong Society, but in the future they still want to return to the world's governance method?"

"If so, let me ask you to stop thinking like this as soon as possible. Don't accept the concept of Datong just because we can't be emperor for the time being or you can't be emperor for the time being."

After Zhu Yuanzhang said this, Guo Tianxu took the initiative and said:

"We admit that we have always wanted to be emperor, but we know that we can no longer be emperor!"

"However, we don't want you to be the emperor, and we haven't met each other yet. It's just because Mr. Zhang established the Datong Society, so we can't be disloyal to the Datong Society, but we still have a question, that is If we govern the country with the concept of Datong, will everyone in the Han people really be rich in the future?”

"That's what I've been thinking about."

"Although the officials and people under the rule of our Datong Society are now much richer, the people no longer know about hunger, and the scholars have no worries about lack of talent, can we really make everyone in China rich in the future? Will there really be no poor people? "

Feng Guoyong also asked at this time.

Zhang Cheng nodded: "This issue is worthy of discussion."

Zhu Yuanzhang said at this time: "We have also thought about this, but in our opinion, even if the concept of Datong cannot be realized, we cannot give up!"

then.

Zhu Yuanzhang said again: "Because he is the only correct way to maintain long-term peace and stability in the world! If we give up, we will reverse the course of history and starve to death!"

"In that case, no matter how high your food production is now or how superb your skills are, once you give up the idea of ​​Datong, people's hearts will become bad, and greedy and despicable people will still appear in large numbers, and then squander a lot of money and food to satisfy their selfish desires, so that even though the people Although he is diligent and frugal, his income is still very small, and he still cannot live a stable life. "

Subsequently.

Zhu Yuanzhang simply stood up and looked at everyone with emotion: "Masters, Zhu Yuanzhang still said what he said, this concept of great harmony is the only way. If we don't abide by this way, it only means that we Han people and China are not worthy of it. Although the concept of Datong claims to be Chinese, it is actually Yi Di!”

Zhu Yuanzhang said this, which surprised Zhang Cheng.

Although he knew that Zhu Yuanzhang's current awareness may be related to the fact that his personal and family interests have been linked to major government-owned industries, in Zhang Cheng's view, Zhu Yuanzhang's words showed that he really accepted Datong. idea.

then.

Zhang Cheng then echoed: "What the superior said is that if we Han people abandon Datong Society, we will really despise ourselves. We would rather be slaves of foreign races for generations, and would rather enslave ourselves for generations with a status lower than that of barbarians." Despicable and incorrigible fellows!"

"Everyone!"

Then, Zhang Cheng also looked at the other senior officials:
"The justice of the Datong concept lies in that because it wants to enrich the people, it requires the rulers to pay attention to increasing the benefits of the world and making the benefits of the world more equitably distributed. In this way, they will not be willing to suppress productivity or even condemn hundreds of workers for the sake of human relations. The skills are so miraculous that they even waste time on moral articles in order to make them content with the status quo!"

"This is why the superiors say that if China is to truly be China, it must have the concept of great harmony!"
