Please ask me to be the emperor

Besides, Zhu Changxun, the "Emperor Hongguang", had a conflict with Kong Zhenyun, a scholar of the cabinet and the censor of the left capital.

With great difficulty, he comforted the two of them, and then went down to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

When he opened the door and entered, he saw all the girls reading, embroidering, coaxing the children no matter how bad they were, playing with guns and sticks, a harmonious scene everywhere, and he couldn't help nodding his head in satisfaction.

It's not that the girls have changed their temperament, and of course it's not that Zhang Shun is well trained.

It's just that all the girls were "captured" by him yesterday, and now let's put those who pretend to be virtuous and virtuous.

Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't pretend.

It's just that everyone knows that Zhang Shun is going to proclaim himself emperor when he comes back this time.

If you hate him and give yourself a low-level title later, it will be a big loss, so this is just pretending.

Zhang Shun didn't bother to talk to them, so he went directly into the house to find Li Sanniang.

Li Sanniang was steaming steamed buns in the kitchen. Seeing Zhang Shun come in, she couldn't help asking with concern: "Are you hungry, do you want to have another two bites?"

The early court system in the Ming Dynasty was a very disgusting system. It started at three o'clock in the morning every morning, and often continued to toss until noon.

If Zhu Changxun and Kong Zhenyun hadn't gotten into trouble this time, Zhang Shun wouldn't have been able to come back so early.

Sure enough, without saying a word, he grabbed a piece of Li Sanniang's snow-white steamed bun with one hand, and started to eat it in big mouthfuls.

Just after taking a few mouthfuls, Zhang Shun couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"What's the matter, isn't it delicious?" Li Sanniang gave him a strange look and asked casually.

"It's not that it doesn't taste good, it's that I'm almost full of anger!" Zhang Shun couldn't help but indignantly said, "Today, the old emperor and the old man had a quarrel, and it's life-or-death, and it gave me a headache!"

"Oh, this one!" Li Sanniang couldn't help tidying up the steamed buns and said, "Then go and persuade Old Man Kong!"

"The arm can't twist the thigh. After all, he is the emperor. Does he still want him to kowtow to him?"

"Hey, that's true!" Zhang Shun thought after hearing Li Sanniang's words: That's the truth!

Kong Zhenyun had to take a step back for this matter, could he still press Zhu Changxun to make him take a step back?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but put down the steamed buns under his hand, patted his buttocks, and said with a smile: "Pack it up first, save it for me to eat at night!"

Li Sanniang couldn't help but give him a blank look, and she moved her palm out and said, "Go quickly, don't let me make trouble!"

Then Zhang Shun smiled, left the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and led Wukong and others to find Kong Zhenyun on his own.

Kong Zhenyun's mansion was a bit dilapidated, and there was not a single servant outside.

Wukong yelled twice, and then an old slave came out bent over.

Zhang Shun stepped forward to ask, only then did he realize that Kong Zhenyun was lying in the house recuperating, so he went in.

"Your Highness, this old man's legs and feet are inconvenient, please forgive me for being rude!" Kong Zhenyun struggled to get up when he saw Zhang Shun coming, but unexpectedly he couldn't get up at all, so he had to smile wryly.

"It's okay, you don't need to be so polite!" Zhang Shun quickly pressed him, and said with a smile, "Just now I asked Wukong to go to the Imperial Hospital to get some ointment, and I will apply it to you later!"

"Forget it, I don't have a few days to live, so what's the use of this ointment?" Kong Zhenyun shook his head and sighed dejectedly.

"You have such a stubborn temper!" Zhang Shun couldn't help persuading after hearing the words, "He is an emperor after all, and his temper is not bad."

"Emperor? What's wrong with the emperor? This old man is scolding the emperor!" Zhang Shun started, and Kong Zhenyun got excited again, "I wouldn't scold him if he wasn't the emperor!"

"This old man is the No. 2 in the 47th year of Wanli's Chengji Weike Zhuang Jichang list. He has gone through the Wanli, Taichang, Tianqi, Chongzhen and Hongguang Five Dynasties."

"I've seen that good-tempered emperor a lot, and there's no one who doesn't get scolded by me for being impatient!"

Good guy, why are you so proud?

However, Zhang Shun didn't expect that this old guy had quite deep qualifications.

As we said before, Zhuang Jichang, the famous Zhuang Jichang in the forty-seventh year of Wanli in the late Ming Dynasty, had a large group of influential figures on the list.

For example, Hong Chengchou, Sun Chuanting, Yuan Chonghuan, Liang Tingdong, Ma Shiying, Ding Qirui, He Zouwu, Wu Aheng, Yang Wenyue, Xue Guoguan and many other famous officials in the late Ming Dynasty all came from this list.

However, Zhuang Jichang, the No. 1 scholar on this list, was criticized for scrapping his face.

From this point of view, this guy has triple identities as a direct minister, the queen of Kong Shengren, and the number one person on the same list, and his status is indeed very important.

Thinking of this, Zhang Shun hesitated for a moment, and seeing no one around, he said in a low voice: "Mr. Kong, you also know that this majesty will not be in office for a few days, why don't you let him?"

"I won't be a few days?" Kong Zhenyun's eyes froze when he heard the words, and then he sneered, "Sure enough, you can't help but be Cao Cao?"

"Don't speak so harshly!" Zhang Shun shook his head with a wry smile when he heard the words, and explained, "In my status, there are not many of him, and there are not many without him. It's between right and wrong."

"It's just that I can bear it, I'm afraid the generals under my command can't bear it; the generals under my command can bear it, the ministers in the court can't bear it; the ministers of the court can bear it, the people of the world can't bear it!"

"As a last resort, I have no choice but to bear the infamy of this life!"

As the saying goes: if the name is not right, the words will not be right, and if the words are not right, nothing will be done.

If Zhang Shun wanted to carry out his policies in a big way, the first step would naturally be to destroy all the old forces of the previous dynasty.

To get rid of the old forces of the previous dynasty, we must first "rectify the name and position", that is, completely deny the legitimacy of the previous dynasty, and only then can the legitimacy of the reform of the new dynasty be established.

If you don't have this courage, then you will never be able to carry out your own policies confidently.

"Oh?" Kong Zhenyun sneered when he heard the words, and said, "You sound nice, but in the end, aren't you a reckless person, a warm-hearted person?"

"It doesn't matter if you are reckless or Yiwen!" Zhang Shun shook his head, held his head high and said, "If not, how can this king command the world!"

"If this king can't command the world, how can he govern the country and bring peace to all generations!"

"It's just you? Create peace for all generations!" Kong Zhenyun couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, and even laughed out his own snot.

"That's right!" Zhang Shun didn't seem to see his ridicule, and said seriously, "The world today is undergoing major changes unseen in three thousand years."

"If there is no self in the world, three hundred years later the universe will be turned upside down, all the clothes of China will be lost, and the lineage of saints will be cut off, and the world will be catastrophe!"

"How do you say that?" Kong Zhenyun looked at Zhang Shun suspiciously, seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, couldn't help asking.

"The tree that embraces is born at the end of the hair; the platform with nine stories rises from the pile of soil, so the sage can see the details, see the beginning and know the end!" Zhang Shun couldn't help laughing.

"Since Ming Chengzu sent Zheng He to the Western Seas, maritime trade has flourished, and people from the far west have traveled thousands of miles to China."

"The sage said: read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles. The man from the far west can reach China as well as the world. If given time, he will surely defeat me with wealth and strengthen me with weapons. Do you think so? "

"If that's the case, the sage should go out in the far west!" Although Kong Zhenyun didn't understand Zhang Shun's worries, he was very familiar with the ancestor Kong sage's travels around the world.

Everyone has one nose, two eyes, one head and two hands. Who is smarter than the other?

Assuming that a country can continuously absorb the wisdom of many places, it is conceivable that it will eventually become stronger.

"The ship has been able to reach me now, if in time, the other soldiers and horses can reach us again, what should I do?" Zhang Shun couldn't help asking again.

"It's nothing more than soldiers coming to cover the water and soil!" Kong Zhenyun didn't care much about this.

"Then in the past, if the soldiers of gold won the victory, if there were no one in the world, who would be able to stop it?" Zhang Shun continued to ask.

"Uh, this." Kong Zhenyun was speechless after hearing Zhang Shun's words.

One family, one country, one day, naturally there is no reason for constant strength.

If he is in decline and faces a strong enemy, then naturally there will be no good end.

However, this matter was too long for him after all, Zhang Shun's rhetoric could not arouse his vigilance after all.

Kong Zhenyun couldn't help but shook his head and said, "I still don't know what happened in ten or twenty years, let alone a hundred years?"

Seeing that "coercion" failed, Zhang Shun couldn't help frowning, so he had to change it to "incentive".

He couldn't help laughing: "In that case, please let me tell you about my way of governing the country!"

"I heard that Shandong is close to the sea. I don't know if you have ever gone to sea by boat?"

"However, this time, this king has gone out to sea, and he was scolded miserably for this!"

"It took me only ten days to travel two thousand miles from Ningbo to Tianjin. Its speed is fast and its load is a hundred times greater than that of chariots and horses. Do you think so?"

"Even so, it's too dangerous after all!" Kong Zhenyun frowned upon hearing this, and shook his head involuntarily.

"Sir, what you said is wrong. No matter how dangerous it is, it can be compared to Yu, Xia, Shang and Zhou. Shall I expose the ancestors and cut off the thorns, so as to have a sizeable land?" Zhang Shun couldn't help asking.

"Your Highness made a mistake, the two cannot be compared." Kong Zhenyun shook his head and said with a smile.

"Why can't it be compared? Could it be that the sages were able to colonize Kyushu, but I can't colonize the whole world?" Zhang Shuntu saw it poorly, and opened his mouth to ask.

"." As soon as Zhang Shun said this, Kong Zhenyun was completely dumbfounded.

After a long while, he asked with trembling hands, "Your Highness, what did you say?"

"I said that the ancient sages and sages were able to colonize the world of Kyushu, so why can't we colonize the four seas and five continents?" Zhang Shun repeated.

"You and me." Kong Zhenyun stuttered after hearing the words.

The Zhou Dynasty was a very special dynasty for Confucian scholars.

It not only gave birth to the sages of Confucianism, Taoism, ink and law, but also the cornerstone of the entire Chinese civilization.

However, the basis of all of this is the "patriarchal clan system" rooted in everyone's minds - feudalism and nation building, colonization of Kyushu!

Now Zhang Shun actually told him that he wanted to imitate the Zhou Dynasty and prepare to take advantage of the convenient sea transportation conditions to re-colonize the world and the five continents. This makes Kong Zhenyun, who is the 62nd generation grandson of the sage Kong, even more shocked.

"Zhou Jian is in the second generation, melancholic and literary, I follow Zhou!" Kong Zhenyun didn't know how long it had been, and finally came to his senses, and couldn't help but say.

"If His Royal Highness can regain the prosperity of the two weeks, don't talk about the emperor, even the Jade Emperor, the Tathagata Buddha, and the Supreme Old Monarch, I'm afraid they should be worthy of it!"

"Although the old man is not a virtuous man, he is willing to follow suit and carry forward the knowledge of saints!"

What a joke, we Confucian scholars are pedantic, but when it comes to fighting with knives, we used to be first-class experts!
