Dawn of the Empire

Chapter 495 93 Midnight Navy Comes - 1

I don't know how much time has passed, but the discussion among the gran students in Ezhou government school is getting louder and louder.

"So fast? Did you really cut hundreds of knives?" Wang Guangzong said with an unbelievable look on his face, "Master Wan is an official of the court?"

"Is this still fake?" Wu Lin sneered, "I heard that someone offered a tael of silver to buy the meat of a 'traitor'. Later, everyone scrambled for it, and a small piece of meat was sold for 30 taels of silver. That’s enough to donate dozens of grannies.” He looked up at his classmates in the government school, and many of them had gloating expressions on their faces. They shook their heads and said sadly, “A group of idiots, a group of idiots. This knife, today If you kill ten thousand times, you will be able to wait for me in the future. Once this killing ring is lifted, the literati will lose their dignity, everyone will be in danger, and there will never be a peaceful day in the future."

"No way," Wang Guangzong murmured, "Wan Qixi committed the crime of treason."

Wu Lin ignored him, and looked up at the teacher who was looking out the window. At this moment, he firmly believed that Mr. Zhoushan must have the same thoughts as him.It's not common for the gentleman to sit on it, so there are no rules in government schools.Everyone talked a lot, and vented their curiosity and excitement. The students finally remembered the dignity of the teacher, and the voice of discussion gradually died down. They looked up in awe. Mr. Zhoushan was still staring out the window. There was no one else in the yard, only flowers and trees, and birds chirping. Mr. Huang didn't seem to be angry, but his mind wandered too far.

"gentlemen?"

"Mr. Zhoushan?"

After waiting for a long time, someone finally called out cautiously in a low voice.

"Oh," Huang Jian seemed to be awakened from the 'mystery'. He came back to his senses, looked at the crowd of scholars, and dozens of pairs of eyes looked at him with concern. He suddenly remembered the children who were taught to read when they were exiled in Qiongzhou. He shook his head self-deprecatingly, he was getting older and easily distracted, easy to remember.Huang Jian stood up and bowed slightly to the grannies to express his apologies.Although this move was not big, the faces of Wu Lin, Wang Guangzong and others immediately softened, knowing that the husband is fine, and Huang Zhoushan's statements, words and deeds are always different from ordinary people, but it made these women feel like a spring breeze, and even had a faint feeling of Mu Ru. Feelings.

"Just now I said that you should not obey 'chaotic' orders, but be recommended by public discussion," Huang Jian murmured, his eyes changed slightly, and he sighed, "Now Huang will explain to you the way of 'respecting the king', the so-called 'respecting the emperor' Don't follow the "chaotic" order, but trace its origin and flow, which is not in the history books. Yi Yin exiled Taijia and then assisted him. Zhou Gong beheaded Guan Cai and assisted Cheng Wang. , known as 'Republic', it is all about the affairs of the courtiers in charge of the country, but from the beginning to the end, the courtiers did not escape the word 'respect' to the emperor. The emperor has no way, and the courtiers should try their best to assist him, instead of usurping them in their hearts, or even In the Spring and Autumn Period, Duke Ling was few, extravagant, rich, and the people were not attached to him, so he sent people to assassinate Zhao Dun. Zhao Dun ran away, and before he left Jin, Zhao Chuan attacked and killed Duke Ling and Taoyuan. Tai Shi Dong Hu wrote that 'Zhao Dun killed his king'. The master said, Xuanzi, a good doctor, suffered evil for the sake of the law, and he was spared when he went out of the border. …”

The lin students of the state school listened quietly, Wu Lin nodded slightly, Wang Guangzong and the others showed bewildered looks on their faces.What Huang Jian is saying now is quite satisfactory, not deviant.Because of this, it is quite different from the public discussion election he talked about before he was dazed.The agitated mood of the granary students just now was gradually calmed down by the strict lectures.According to the rules, after Mr. finished speaking, someone would stand up immediately after answering questions.

Li Dudao: "If Xia Jie, Shang Zhou, Qin Shi, and Sui Yang were the emperors, students think that, just like Mencius said, they have heard of killing a single husband, but they have never heard of killing a king. If Tang Wu, Zhou Wu, Han Gao, and Emperor Gaozu of Tang If you stick to 'respecting the king' and don't practice benevolence and righteousness, don't you think that the people of the world are in trouble?" He said, looking around.Ever since Ezhou held public discussions and elections, scholars and even common people have become more popular in discussing politics. Originally, Mencius's words were taboo in the prefectural schools, but today several students nodded sympathetically.

Before Huang Jian could speak, Wu Lin stood up and said, "Brother Li's words are wrong. The distinction between monarch and minister is a great righteousness. How can you easily kill the superior. The so-called monarch, minister and minister. First, if the ministers are easy to save and kill With the heart of the king, the king also guards against his subjects like he guards against enemies. How can the world be governed? The two, the king and his ministers, are the first. If the king cannot protect himself, let alone the ministers, let alone you and me? Who are the kingslayers? Also! Shang Tang, Zhou Wu, how many people can there be in thousands of years? There are many, or Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao, these treacherous heroes, or Zhang Jiao, Huang Chao, Fang La, etc. Chaos thief. If you can kill the king today, you can kill the ministers tomorrow, and you can poison the people the next day! Neither you nor I can escape, how can you just sit back and applaud?" He looked at Huang Jian again and said, "The pen of history is like a knife, Zhao Dun murdered his king, and this is a rebellious minister. Shang Zhou has no way, Zhou Wenwang has two thirds of the world, and his ministers serve the Shang Dynasty. This is true benevolence and righteousness!"

After listening to Wu Lin's words, Li Du sneered twice and said, "How dare you ask Brother Wu, Emperor Yin of the Later Han Dynasty killed the ministers Yang Bin, Shi Hongzhao, Wang Zhang and his clan, killed the family of the general Guo Wei, and sent people to assassinate Guo Wei, This matter can be compared with that of Shang Zhou and Xia Jie. Guo Wei’s punishment of this single husband, is it possible to use the Zhou Dynasty as the Han?” The Song Dynasty inherited the Guozuo of the Later Zhou Dynasty, and the two emperors of the Later Zhou Dynasty, Guo Wei and Chai Rong, and the matter of the Later Zhou Dynasty and the Han Dynasty Therefore, Li Du used this as an example to refute Wu Lin. In addition to Shang Zhou and Xia Jie, Emperor Yin of the Later Han Dynasty could also be punished. Then again and again, there is no way. You can kill it as much as possible.

The two janitors started arguing, but the others didn't try to persuade them. Instead, several janitors joined in, and the ones who didn't speak were also inexplicably excited.Since the initiative of Ezhou, the discussion atmosphere of the state school has been greatly improved, and there are almost no taboos.It is much more exciting to discuss whether it is appropriate or not to kill a regicide in the state school than before.It wasn't until all the students expressed their opinions that they all looked at the leader together and listened to Mr. Zhoushan's comments.The grannies' faces were flushed, their eyes were burning, and they were a little anxious in their excitement. They knew in their hearts that even Mr. Zhoushan could not easily touch this subject.Didn't Master Wan Qixi be punished for the crime of treason in the state government just now?

Huang Jian frowned, and said in a deep voice: "I only have some superficial views to discuss with the lords. The so-called white horse is not a horse, which is sophistry. The king is also a human being. It is a matter of murder. When Gaozu entered the Guanzhong, there were three chapters of the law, and the murderer died. If the king did not follow the court system, he killed without authorization or indiscriminately, no matter whether he killed ministers or people, it was no different from ordinary murder. Because the king kills It does not go through the court system, nor does it involve the righteousness of the monarch and his ministers. At this time, if the king kills, he can be regarded as a prince who has committed the same crime as the common people. It does not involve the righteousness of the emperor and his ministers, nor can it be said that his ministers killed the king."

Hearing this moment, Li Du glanced at Wang Lin triumphantly. There was a glimmer of gloom on Wang Lin's eyes and face, and all the students felt uneasy, excited and even inexplicably happy.These expressions fell into Huang Jian's eyes, he shook his head and said: "A benevolent man loves others, and he kills people as a last resort, how can he applaud him for this?"

Huang Jian sighed, and said: "If the king acts according to the imperial court system, he will be in the righteousness of the monarch and his ministers. The first way of a courtier is to persuade the king, and if he fails to persuade, he will not obey the orders of 'chaos'. The lower ones will return to the countryside and do not help the tyrant. Those who take charge of the great government temporarily, guard the world and wait for the emperor of Ming Dynasty. If Zhou Zhaogong exiled the king and chose another Ming emperor, such as Zhou Zhaogong's reconciliation, Han Huoguang's affairs. Or wait for the king to have the way before returning it, like Zhou Gong waiting for the king. In righteousness, killing the king by ministers is the rule of rebellion, and usurping things can't be tolerated. Once a bad example is set, everyone will be in danger, and the upper and lower will invade and fight against each other. It's like a spring and autumn story, and the world has nothing to follow , will lead to great 'chaos'."

Wang Lin nodded with all his thoughts, but Li Du refused to accept it, and said loudly: "Even according to the imperial court system, there are many reasons for tyrants to kill without authorization and indiscriminate killing. Students dare to ask Mr. Zhoushan, as a minister, can he only You're going to kill yourself, right?" He raised his spirits, and the tone of his voice turned out to be a fierce questioning.Li Duping was generous and heroic in the state school, and he was quite popular. Several janitors glanced at each other, and then looked at Huang Jian together.

Although Li Du was somewhat offended, Huang Jian didn't think it was disobedient, and replied: "If the king acts according to the court system, it is not one person who is evil, but the court. How can one person be guilty?" He looked at Li Du in disbelief. Looking at the expression, he said patiently, "Everyone's ambitions must go through the prefectures and counties in the future, right?" , Said: "Ask yourselves, in the future, in the judgment of prison and lawsuit, can you not wrong one person, but kill one person? If these wronged and wrongly killed people come to you to make up for their crimes, in this world, the state and county shepherds will only Are you afraid that everyone will pay for their lives?"

Li Du couldn't answer for a while, Wang Lin nodded and said: "What you said is very true, as an official, the most important thing is to be honest."

Huang Jian shook his head and said: "The way of honesty is good for self-cultivation. But the shepherds of the prefectures and counties, every move involves the suffering of the people, and to indulge in evil is to help evil. The corpse eats vegetarian food, condones lawlessness, and exploits the disabled. Disciple, the difference is nothing more than that."

Wang Lin's face was 'ashamed', and he said in a low voice: "The students have been taught."

Li Du was still unconvinced, and whispered to the students on the left and right: "I used to listen to preaching and teaching, and thought that Mr. Zhoushan's words were true knowledge. Now, it seems that Huang Zhoushan is just Ye Gong who likes dragons. When it comes to killing tyrants, he will Shocked and inexplicable, I was about to change course." He has always been wild and unscrupulous in his words and deeds, but his classmates who are familiar with him did not have the courage to criticize Mr. Zhoushan, some had pale faces, some were obsequious, and some pretended not to hear , Some even approve in their hearts, but their faces are embarrassing.
