Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

Xiao Jing had a smile on his face, but the smile was a little stiff.

But soon, he gave up all his ideas.

It's better not to mention such a person, Liu Jin's letter is still on His Majesty's desk, how will this letter be explained then?

What a pity.

Otherwise, with this credit, Liu Jin would have no worries for the rest of his life.

Even if he is not in the East Palace, there must be a place for him in the Twelve Supervisors, the Fourth Division, and the Eight Yamen in the palace.

Emperor Hongzhi seemed extremely happy, Ouyang Zhi solved the big problem.

The city was defended, and more than 7,000 Tatars were executed, which was enough to raise their eyebrows.

Ma Wensheng also said excitedly: "Your Majesty, after this battle, it will be enough to make Ming Dynasty no longer have to worry about the Tatars for five years. The Tatars took risks and plundered because winter is coming. They didn't store enough food and grass. But this time, the population of the Tatars will be greatly reduced this winter, and they will lose a lot of rice by stealing chickens."

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help laughing heartily, and said with a red face: "That's why, Ouyang Zhi has a rare temperament and a rare talent."

Emperor Hongzhi's appreciation for Ouyang Zhi was so obvious that Fang Jifan couldn't help but interjected: "Your Majesty, my disciple..."

He bit down on the word "student", implying that no matter how awesome he is, he is relying on his mentor to get into society, isn't he? Without his mentor, how could he be where he is today? If the disciples are like this, the mentor is even more powerful.

However, Hongzhi waved his hand and said, "Don't interrupt me first." As he said that, he looked at Ma Wensheng excitedly and said, "The next order is to go to Duoyanwei, Duoyanwei Snake and Rat at both ends, to question them Whether you want to break the original oath, if they refuse to be loyal to me, Daming, then it’s okay, tell them, I will hunt the desert next year, so we have to bow our bows to each other and have a showdown.”

Ma Wensheng was beaming with joy.

At this time, how dare Duoyan Sanwei and Daming wait for a price!

He nodded and said: "Besides that, when the time comes, I would like to ask His Majesty to order Duoyanwei to attack and beat up the remnants of the Tatars. If they don't fight, we Ming will fight. At that time, my Ming elite will display Daning, and we will see who is frightened. "

Emperor Hongzhi laughed again, he had always had a stable temperament, and rarely laughed so happily like now. He could almost imagine how much regret and fear Duoyanwei would feel.

This Yan Wei originally wanted to make a double-headed bet between the Tatars and Daming, but now that the Tatars have suffered such a defeat, Daming has time to toss them slowly. What is in front of them is obedient surrender, in order to show loyalty , you have to present the vote certificate.

In this way, as Ma Wensheng said, within five years, the desert will be considered stable, and the imperial court will have enough time to prepare for the continued attack on the Tatars.

"Call Ouyang Zhi back to Beijing immediately. He has worked very hard in Jinzhou this time. It is really wronged him to leave him in a mere Jinzhou. Then order the governor of Liaodong to move to Jinzhou and reorganize Jinzhou's military affairs."

After Emperor Hongzhi finished speaking, he glanced at Fang Jifan: "Naturally, Fang Jifan has meritorious service."

Huh... Finally, I still haven't forgotten myself.

Fang Jifan's heart warmed.

Liu Jian also nodded and said: "Yes, Fang Jifan also has merit."

Ma Wensheng also nodded.

Everyone agreed.

Emperor Hongzhi immediately said: "The good news, we must immediately pass and copy the mansion report, and make it clear to the world that Ouyang Zhi will return to Beijing, and let him come to see you immediately. I really want to see him."

Emperor Hongzhi was full of energy, and smiled again: "It's really not easy for a scholar to go to Jinzhou."

After some emotion, the faces of all the ministers lit up, and Liu Jian couldn't help but think of his son Liu Jie, who is still only a scholar, but he is already the number one scholar, and he has made great achievements in the world. What a gap this is! Fortunately, he is not jealous, just feeling a little bit emotional!

The 100,000 soldiers and civilians in Jinzhou were saved, and he felt relaxed and happy. He couldn't help but said, "Maybe this is the rumored unity of knowledge and action?"

As soon as the four characters "integration of knowledge and action" came out, the scene in the Nuan Pavilion suddenly became cold.

Everyone seemed a little jealous.

Xie Qian couldn't help but said: "Grand Liu, do you also know the unity of knowledge and action?"

Liu Jian immediately realized that he was secretly angry with himself, what happened today, he was so proud that he forgot his face, maybe it was because he admired Ouyang Zhi too much! However, this new school of thought is really not a crime, it just doesn't match the mainstream thinking.

The literary inquisition that people are familiar with, in fact, started from the Manchu Qing Dynasty. The Ming court had more, just to guide the mainstream consciousness. Although there are some taboos, the royal family will try their best to avoid them, such as the emperor's name taboo, In terms of emotion and reason, they are not the same. If the emperor's name is Liu Da, then this big character is not allowed to be used.

Although Daming also inherited this set of etiquette, in order not to inconvenience others, he simply made up his own characters for fun. After all, he couldn’t use names used by ordinary people, so he found a character by himself, and then added a Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth are just like Zhu Houzhao. In fact, his character for Zhao should have a character 'fire' as a radical, which should actually be 'huozhao'. Emperor Hongzhi was named Zhu Youtang. As for Zhu Houcong and the like, this is probably the case.

These characters did not exist in the past, and the emperor used them himself, so that in later generations, the periodic table of elements is all characters created by the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Anyway, no matter what element he is, just add a gold character next to it.

That's right.

However, although it is innocent to promote new learning, as a minister of the court, it is somewhat taboo to promote non-mainstream consciousness.

Liu Jian was silent for a while, and said calmly: "The unity of knowledge and action, the old man has heard of it, and it sounds familiar. I made it up today. Why, is there any allusion to this unity of knowledge and action?"

This answer is really beautiful.

Xie Qian was obviously disgusted with this new school, and said with some indignation: "It's just a group of young scholars getting together to make a splash. The Ministry of Rites has received complaints from many scholars, saying that this school is bad for people. But evil intentions, this is too serious, a group of young people are just playing around, unconventional, and it is normal, but I heard that many scholars in Beijing actually go there to learn something new, and it is indeed easy to cause people to worry. "

Fang Jifan listened to Xie Qian's evaluation of Xinxue, smiled, and simply ignored him. Newxue, it is said to be new, how could it be easily accepted by a group of old cadres, ah no, old antiques? If you can accept it easily, then you will be damned.

In fact, as long as Wang Shouren will not be retaliated against for advocating his theories, Fang Jifan will not care too much.

Emperor Hongzhi also had a smile on his face, with a meaningful look on his face, and he kept his mouth shut from beginning to end.

Liu Jian said with a slight smile: "Yes, the young people nowadays really don't know what it means to study hard. It's too late to study the Four Books and Five Classics, but they make new ones every day. This is a bad atmosphere. But Mr. Xie doesn't have to Worried, the court’s stereotyped selection of scholars is based on the annotations of Cheng Zhu’s classics, so why worry? The vast majority of scholars still keep their own place. Such things are just minor details. If you and I take it to heart, it will become a big deal. It seems that this new learning is great, you and I can't see it, it will naturally disappear like the old Luo Xue, why not?"

Xie Qian has a fiery temper, and indeed he has some complaints about it. It is better that Li Dongyang and Ma Wensheng are more stable. Hearing what Liu Jian said now, he immediately blushed: "It's still true what Liu Gong said, but I am petty."

Everyone laughed.

It's just that Liu Jian's smile is a little stiff.

Because he found that Fang Jifan seemed to be looking at him with 'dark eyes'.

Of course, all this was just his illusion. In fact, Fang Jifan never cared about Professor Wang Shouren's new learning at all. He didn't want to steal Wang Shouren's limelight, so it was naturally impossible to know that Wang Shouren's number one lackey was surnamed Liu.

But Liu Jian always felt that Fang Jifan knew something, so Fang Jifan's honest smile, which he tried so hard to squeeze, became a little... malicious in his eyes.

Emperor Hongzhi was also playing dumb.

He knows about the new learning. Doesn't the prince go to the unity of knowledge and action every day? Of course, he has to pretend to be stupid. Xie Qian and others don’t seem to object to the prince going there. This is because the prince is different from a scholar. What the prince wants to learn is to govern the country and the world. In the minds of Xie Qian, Li Dongyang, Ma Wensheng and others, the top priority of scholars is to do stereotyped essays, compose scriptures, take imperial examinations, and anything else belongs to the category of not doing business properly.

Emperor Hongzhi was a little embarrassed, and then he sat upright and said: "Yes, what you said is also reasonable. In a blink of an eye, the college examinations in the two capitals and the thirteen provinces will start, but there are still scholars who are unwilling to settle down and study. This...is very bad, but as Liu Qing's family solemnly said, this new learning, let them go, when these scholars stumble, they will naturally know that they are on the right track."

"Your Majesty is wise." Everyone praised.

Emperor Hongzhi just smiled: "That's all for today. The Qing family can go to their own affairs. Fang Jifan, you stay here. I want to ask you about Ouyang Zhi."

About Ouyang Zhi...

What happened to Ouyang Zhi?

Fang Jifan was a little dazed, but just now he was a little scared that Wang Shouren was strongly criticized by the dissatisfaction of the princes in this temple.

After all, few old ministers are willing to accept new things.

In a blink of an eye, His Majesty seemed to be more concerned about Ouyang Zhi's problem.

Liu Jian and others have already stood up and resigned.

When everyone was gone, only Xiao Jing stood aside with a smile on his face.

Emperor Hongzhi pulled his face and glanced at him.

Only then did Xiao Jing understand that the so-called everyone resigned, including him.

There was a bit of resentment in his heart, but he still said with a smile: "Servant...resign!"
