"You said it yourself, you live in the Huaxia region, so you are a Chinese person. If you live in the Daming region, you are naturally a Daming person!"

"No." Song Zan shook his head,

"What's wrong with that?"

"Since His Highness said that he is a Daming person who lives in the territory of Daming, the Caomin dared to ask His Highness, if a person from Beiyuan moved to Shuntian Mansion, is he a Daming person?"

"How is this possible? A person from Beiyuan, not to mention moving to Shuntian Mansion, even if he moved to Yingtian Mansion, he is still from Beiyuan!"

Song Zan's eyes flashed, "Then His Highness's statement is wrong."

"This..." The fourth child wanted to refute Song Zan, but he didn't know how to say it. He had been completely surrounded by Song Zan.

"Then why do you say the Chinese are Chinese? Why are the Ming people the Ming people?"

"Because of etiquette." Song Zan said seriously. "Because the Ming people, from the monarch to the common people, all agree with this set of theories and have the same thoughts..."

"That's why they are Daming people."

Chapter 151

The reason why the Ming people are called the Ming people,

Not because they all lived in this area, nor because Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty,

But because everyone has the same thoughts in their hearts?

This remark was simply unheard of by the fourth child.

And if Liu Xiu also heard Song Zan's words, he would think highly of Song Zan,

Song Zan was right, but modern times have a better vocabulary to sum up Song Zan's remarks.

Values.

Because they share the same values, they form a national group.

"Then my father established Daming, and it was built in vain?"

Song Zan shook his head and looked in Liu Xiu's direction, "It is because of His Majesty that the Great Ming came into being. But the Great Han, Great Tang, and Great Song were able to gather many people together, not for other reasons, but because of the existence of Confucian rituals."

The fourth child closed his eyes and thought about it for a while. Although Song Zan's words sounded like heresy, when he thought about it carefully, there was some truth to it.

At least I can't find any mistakes.

"Your Highness, if this Beiyuan man has settled down in Shuntian Mansion and is still here to marry a wife and have children, will his children still be from Beiyuan?"

"Of course not."

"Hehe, why? The child born in Beiyuan is not from Beiyuan?"

The fourth child thought about it, but he really couldn't say one, two, three, but he was sure that as many people as Song Zan asked, the answer would be exactly the same as his answer.

Song Zan paused, "Your Highness, this is because the education this child has received is etiquette, and he has the same thoughts as us, so even if his father is from the Yuan Dynasty, this child is also from the Ming Dynasty."

The fourth child simply kept his mouth shut. He always felt that something was wrong, but he was sure that he couldn't say anything to Song Zan, so he had to let Liu Xiu come.

After a moment of silence, Zhu Di couldn't hold back any longer, and asked curiously,

"Then what does this have to do with the question I asked you? Even if etiquette is the foundation of what makes Daming Ming what it is, what does it have to do with Liu Xiu being the one who brings order and chaos?"

Song Zan sighed, to be honest, Liu Xiu's existence also made him unable to deal with it,

In fact, there is another very important point that Song Zan didn't mention. Since they are all educated people, it is difficult for this person's thinking to escape from this established scope.

However, Liu Xiu is definitely an outlier.

Judging from the articles he wrote, he seems to have never been educated in Confucianism, and he is completely unfettered by etiquette.

Of course, his thinking is also different from that of Beiyuan people.

In other words, Liu Xiu's thoughts, in this era, probably don't even have anything similar to him!

Thinking of this, Song Zan couldn't help but gasped again. There was only one explanation he could think of,

Liu Xiu is what Confucius said,

People who know it from birth!

"gentlemen?"

Song Zan raised his head, cleared his mind, and then said, "Your Highness, Cao Min said just now that people of Ming Dynasty are united by rites, even if a person of Ming Dynasty is thrown into Beiyuan, to the ends of the earth, he is still a person of Ming Dynasty. All this is because of the enlightenment of ritual."

"And he," Song Zan looked at Liu Xiu with strange eyes, "if he is in a high position, he will definitely break this ceremony. If the ceremony is broken, the idea of ​​uniting the Huaxia region will disappear, so are the people of Ming Dynasty still people of Ming Dynasty? ?”

"Therefore, there are only two outcomes. One is not to replace Li with a brand-new idea, ushering in unprecedented great order. The other is to completely break Li and usher in unprecedented chaos..."

"No matter what the result is, in the eyes of the grassroots, it is a disaster."

Zhu Di trembled when he heard the words. Although he hadn't fully accepted Song Zan's statement,

However, he knows Liu Xiu better than Song Zan, and what Liu Xiu does is brand new and dangerous.

Expanding borders, selling salt, and making guns...

Picking out any one at random has already changed the general trend of the world!

And where Daming will go in the future, no one knows!

"Your Highness, can you tell me about Liu Xiu?"

The fourth child nodded, "There are too many things to talk about. I'm afraid you are not interested in his thrilling stories. What you care more about is his thoughts. Then I will tell you how he died at the hands of his father." Let's protect the entire Liu family."

Song Zan's eyes burst into light, "Thank you Your Highness, the grass people are all ears!"

In the quiet night, on the examiner's table, only the deep voice of the fourth child and Song Zan's exclamation from time to time remained.

None of the people His Majesty was determined to kill survived. Even Prime Minister Hu Weiyong couldn't escape His Majesty's butcher knife, but this Liu Xiu not only survived, but also saved hundreds of members of the whole clan!

Even the storyteller didn't dare to say that, but these words came from the mouth of King Yan, Song Zan couldn't help but believe it, but this is too outrageous!

This Liu Xiu is a legend!

Liu Xiu closed her eyes again and took a rest. The first three questions have been written, and the next fourth question is the most important.

Write a policy essay on current events,

The question is the easiest to understand, but it is also the most difficult question in the entire test paper!

As for what Liu Xiu wanted to write, he had already thought about it on the day when he decided to take the imperial examination.

Taking a deep breath, he wrote down the questions on the test paper.

This time, he didn't notice at all that King Yan and Song Zan had already walked by his side.

Song Zan looked at the test paper hungrily, and his eyes were directly attracted by the question of the fourth question. After seeing the question clearly, he couldn't help exclaiming,

"How dare you write this?!"

Song Zan's voice was like a thunderclap in the quiet night, and many candidates who were already asleep were awakened by Song Zan.

The fourth child held his forehead, if he had known that you still committed this problem, he would have killed you without agreeing to come down to inspect you!

The fourth child stopped Song Zan who was stunned in place and strode back to the examiner's desk. After he was seated, he snorted coldly,

"Mr. Song, you are too unruly!"

Song Zan quickly wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead, and apologized,

"The grassroots are guilty, Your Highness please punish, but...but this..."

The cold sweat on Song Zan's forehead could not stop flowing down his face. The fourth child had never seen Song Zan like this since he knew Song Zan.

"What's the matter?"

Song Zan took three consecutive breaths and said in a trembling voice,

"The title of his fourth question is, the Northern and Southern Imperial Examinations!"

"what?!"

The eldest brother turned pale with fright, he never thought that Liu Xiu would be so courageous, dare to touch this big thunder!

Civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and officials all over the world knew that the northern and southern imperial examinations would be a hidden danger sooner or later, but why no one mentioned it?

It is because there is no solution to this matter at all!

Not only is there no solution, whoever is involved in this matter is stained with a show,

If you speak for the northern candidates, you offend the southern candidates all over the world!

If you speak for the southern candidates, you offend the northern candidates all over the world!

And, there is another point, there is a high probability of offending Lao Zhu!

Unless you can come up with a plan that satisfies His Majesty, the North, and the South!

But that's whimsical!

If there is a way, the conflict between the North and the South will not develop to the point where it is now out of control!

Dare to touch this big thunder, could it be that Liu Xiu is tired of work? !

Chapter 152: The Best Policy Theory in the World!

The confrontation between candidates from the north and the south of the Ming Dynasty is not only a matter of imperial examinations, but also a major issue related to the country.

Later, when there was really no other way, Lao Zhu had no choice but to kill him.

However, in the end of the Ming Dynasty, the problem of the opposition between candidates from the North and the South was never resolved.

No one can give a solution that everyone is satisfied with!

This question has no solution!

Although Song Zan called Liu Xiu a person who ruled great chaos, he didn't want Liu Xiu to fall here because of an article.

Dare to touch the northern and southern imperial examinations, the ending is nothing more than one,

Offend everyone who can be offended!

Finally, it is difficult to move forward in the officialdom!

Of course, this is still a good ending. The most likely thing is that His Majesty will beheaded for talking about state affairs!
