Ming Zhengzhi, I am Zheng Kezang

><首页><发布>"-----"Records of the Kingdom? Taizu Benji"

According to historical records, in the era of Yao and Shun, floods flooded the world, and the people suffered greatly from it. Yu was ordered to control the floods, "eight years away, but he never entered the house three times", worked hard and went through hardships, and finally calmed the floods and inherited the position of the five emperors; Then the feudal lords were gathered in Kuaiji, rewarded for their achievements, and buried in Kuaiji Mountain after death.After Yu Ziqi ascended the throne, he sent people to sacrifice to Yu every spring and autumn, and built an ancestral temple on Nanshan. Yu's fifth grandson, Shaokang, ascended the throne, and sent his concubine Wuyu to Kuaiji to guard the tomb of Yu, and built a shrine to settle down. beginning.

Zheng Kezang is skeptical about this legend. After all, the Tushan family alone has many different arguments such as the Bashu theory and the Yuedong theory. The reality of this incident has become.Since there may be doubts about King Yu meeting the princes in Kuaiji, it is more likely that King Yu's burial in Kuaiji is a kind of attachment. As for the many Si surnames around Dayu Mausoleum, it is more likely that they were Xia tribes who fled from the north during the Xia-Shang Revolution. descendants of the descendants.

Although the authenticity of Dayu's Mausoleum is questionable, due to the historical event of Qin Shihuang's "going to Kuaiji and sacrificing Dayu", it is true and false, and Zheng Kezang, who is about to establish the "Xia" Dynasty, also How can you not go to worship in person?

Zheng Kezang's motorcade huddled under the guidance of the leader, but two scholars in green clothes among the crowd looking on the left side of the road said frivolously: "The king of Xia has always been far away from wise men and close to villains, but now he really has made a fool of himself."

The person who spoke added as if puzzled: "Don't everyone in Xiafan know that the Zheng family is a descendant of Shang Tangzi's surname, it's fine if they don't inherit the ancestral name, but they still call themselves the heirs of King Yu. It's so nondescript, it's ridiculous."

"Xia Fan doesn't care about economics when seeking talents, but only talks about practical affairs. He is just asking for some sharp-edged officials. Naturally, he doesn't know the allusions." Another scholar also laughed mockingly. "Bingzheng does not adhere to the way of saints and does not pay attention to us scholars, and indulges the national situation at this time like hot oil, but it will inevitably pass away. You and I may wait and see."

"That's true, it's just that Nan Tian was slandered by officials, and the Holy Religion is not good, but it's embarrassing." After the high-sounding words, there was some kind of jealousy of underappreciated talents. "Thinking about you and I studying hard for more than ten years, but taking the exam four times but not being able to compare with one or two friends, it's really hateful, lamentable and pitiful."

"Life is unsatisfactory in the world, and the Ming Dynasty spread out boats." The latter seemed to be open-minded and chanted Li Taibai's poems, but his hands hidden in his sleeves held his fan bones tightly. "If you don't do meritorious service, brother Yu, you and I can still make a statement, not to mention that the premature demise of the Great Xia has already been forged, why should you and I go into this muddy water again, to rest, to rest."

"That's very good," the scholar called Brother Yu nodded. "Brother, let's say goodbye??????"

Two frustrated literati bid farewell to each other, but someone nearby looked at them like fools: "Son, don't imitate them, they are stupid when they study, and now a new dynasty is about to be established. Since you are very useful, if you study hard in the county school, the glory of your ancestors will depend on you in the future."

Fifteen or six-year-old half-children raised their chests: "Father, don't worry, my son will come out in three years, even if he doesn't go to school anymore, he will still be a ninth-rank official, and there must be an official."

"You bastard, the ninth grade is enough. You don't know how hard it is to go from official to official according to today's rules," Lao Tzu patted his son's head with his rough palm. "No, three years of county school, three years of prefectural school, three years of imperial school, I don't expect you to enter imperial school, but you must enter prefectural school."

"If you come out of the government school, you are only an official of the eighth grade." The boy was a little unhappy, but he had to succumb under the threat of force from Lao Tzu. "Okay dad, stop beating, my son must do everything possible to get into the government school, stop beating, what should I do if I am stupid??????"

The almost tit-for-tat farce did not spread to Zheng Kezang's ears, but after worshiping Dayu's Mausoleum, he was discussing with his ministers some titles after Dai Ming: "I don't think it is necessary to use the word Daxia in the future. \”

In Zheng Kezang's view, Xia has a big meaning, and using large characters to describe it and modify it just gives people a petty feeling, just like the prosperous Xia Kingdom and Dangxiang's Xixia back then, but it feels barbaric and unrighteous. .

Therefore, Zheng Kezang decided: "Just call it Huaxia."

Zheng Kezang's reason is actually very far-fetched. In fact, the two characters "Hua" and "Xia" were homophonic in ancient times. ", from which we can see that "Hua" and "Xia" are synonymous, and Hua is Xia, which is identical to the title of Daxia to a certain extent.

However, Zheng Kezang is a superior person, so it is fragrant for him to fart. Therefore, Ming Shunchen, the left servant of the Ministry of Rites who came from Wuchang to prepare for the sacrifice of the tomb, immediately said: ""Guwen Shangshu" said: Mian Clothing is called Hua, and a great country is called Xia. Kong Yingda also said: China has great etiquette, so it is called Xia; it has the beauty of clothing, and it is called Hua. The king's words are exactly what the sages meant."

"I remember that Yan, Yan who participated in the Pseudo-Qing "Yi Tongzhi"??????"

Immediately someone nearby whispered, "Your Majesty, it's Yan Ruoqiu."

Zheng Kezang nodded: "Yes, that Yan Ruoqi proved that "Guwen Shangshu" is a fake in the book "Shangshu Guwen Shuzheng". As for Kong Yingda's reputation in the world for distinguishing the truth from the fake, so Ming Qing's so-called sages' words, Inappropriate."

Zheng Kezang's words made Ming Shilang blush, yes, what kind of person Zheng Kezang is, a generation of ancestors, how can a mere sage be able to stand shoulder to shoulder, let alone live under him, so Ming Shun, who was demoted from an official background, It can be said that the minister flattered the horse's ass.Of course, Wei Shang's servant Ming did not dare to vent his anger on Zheng Kezang, but Yan Ruoqi, who is under house arrest, will definitely be angered by him.

Fortunately, Zheng Kezang's mention of this person was not aimless. It must be known that "Guwen Shangshu" was regarded as a sacred classic by scholars of all dynasties for more than 1000 years, and it was also an important basis for Neo-Confucianism in Song and Ming Dynasties.Yan Ruoqiu's article "Shangshu Guwen Shuzheng" confirmed that "Guwen Shangshu" was a forgery, which made the Confucianists lose ground and was very embarrassed. It dealt a heavy blow to the Neo Confucianism of the Song and Ming Dynasties, and even touched the authority of the Confucian classics to some extent. Its ideological influence is also far-reaching, and it also echoes Zheng Kezang's ultimate goal of destroying the imprisonment of Neo Confucianism.

Therefore, in Zheng Kezang's view, although this old man shamelessly praised Kangxi and the Manchurian rule in order to become an official, it is also understandable. There are more traitors than him who have gone too far. Official Zheng Fan also used a lot, and the harmless Yan Ruoqi could be released naturally.

"Yan Ruoqiu," Zheng Kezang said thoughtfully. "Not long ago, Uncle Xin Chang sent a letter to the widow, saying that he would start to revise the "History of Ming Dynasty" from now on. Since Yan Ruoqiu participated in the revision of the "Yi Tong Zhi" of the pseudo-Qing Dynasty, he should be arranged to help. This old man has always wanted to do it. Official? Just give him the title of editor."

It is actually very easy to introduce Yan Ruoqi as a seventh-rank official, but the revision of "History of Ming Dynasty" is an extremely important political work. Not only does the entire history revision work involve a lot of manpower and material resources, but it also needs to master the caliber and maintain political correctness. In addition to Zheng Kezang himself who has to be in charge from time to time, he also needs to send a highly respected person to sit in charge.

So Zheng Kezang pondered for a while and then made a decision: "Since Xin Changbo is so concerned about this matter, and if this matter does not bother the two masters, he will be appointed as the president of the "History of the Ming Dynasty". The preparatory president of the "History of the Qing Dynasty" museum, led by the Ministry of Rites, must have repaired these two official histories and handed them down to future generations."

With Hong Lei's status as the president of the "Ming History" museum, it is more than enough, but Hong Lei is almost seventy this year, and it is obviously not the reason to treat veterans preferentially for him to do such a huge project, so Zheng Kezang put the Chen Shengwu, who was educated at home with the title of Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, was also involved. Presumably, he would be willing to stand on the last post in this job with a long history.

Ming Shunchen is a smart person, so he turned his eyes and immediately asked: "I invite you to work in the "History of Ming Dynasty" museum."

The responsibilities of Zheng Fan’s Ritual Department are only to do some ceremonial ritual work and honorary succession certification. However, the number of Ming Zheng’s honorary titles is extremely limited today, and the title of honor is also from Zheng Kezang himself. The Ritual Department can only do some specific work at most. There is not much lucrativeness, it can be called Qingshui Yamen, so it is natural for Ming Shunchen to want to work in a place that Zheng Kezang values. After all, it often appears in the eyes of leaders that there are more opportunities for promotion. Two salaries.

"That's it, you should also be the vice president of the "History of the Qing Dynasty" museum." Zheng Kezang didn't think much, and agreed immediately, but the revision of "History of the Qing Dynasty" is not a top priority, so Zheng Kezang still asked Ming Shunchen to follow the Ministry of Rites Putting work first, this made Ming Shunchen a little worried about gains and losses. Zheng Kezang didn't pay much attention to this, but changed the subject and raised the Ming clan such as Zhu Hezang who had just taken poison. "If you come to the Ministry of Rites, you already know that the king of Gaotang County committed suicide." As a king, Zheng Kezang will naturally not regret that he accidentally forced Zhu Hechen to death, but since it was unintentional, he must make up for it to appease Emperor Taishun and others The living descendants of the Zhu family. "Since this is the case, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry should survey the auspicious soil for the king of Gaotang County on the banks of the Min and Hui Erling Tombs." Zheng Kezang said again before Ming Shunchen kowtowed the leader's decree. "Niu Shou Mountain and Zijin Mountain in Nanjing can be used as the tombs of the Ming family, and the incense and ceremonies of Xiaoling Mausoleum will also be sacrificed for four hours."

"I understand, I will arrange it now." Ming Shunchen said this, peeked at Zheng Kezang, and then spoke cautiously. "Please refer to Dongning Mausoleum Affairs Office to set up a Ming Mausoleum Affairs Office for sacrifices and repairs."

"No need." Zheng Kezang refused without hesitation. "Although the Ming Dynasty is a state guest, it is better for the mausoleums of the lower kings to be taken care of by their descendants. There is no reason for this domain to repair them." Zheng Kezang's voice paused. "Talk about the limited finances of the feudal clan. Even if you have money, you don't spend it like this. It's already very benevolent to set up a sum of repair expenses for Xiaoling, Minling, and Huiling in the Ministry of Industry??????"
