"This is a test!"
Fang Xing leaned on the recliner and said lazily: "I'm not just testing His Majesty's attitude towards you and me, but more importantly, I'm testing whether Your Majesty can accept further penetration by civilian officials."
Zhu Zhanji's face was not very pretty. As soon as he learned about the scene this morning, he rushed over to Fang Xing's place.
Xie Jin was silent, because he was not tempted back then, but reckless.
"Brother Dehua, Grandpa Huang has given them a lot of things in recent years. Isn't that enough?"
Zhu Di was very diligent, but he could not compare with his father, so after getting along with the cabinet, he consciously delegated some power to Hu Guang and others.
Fang Xing smiled and said meaningfully: "After trying the sweetness of power and the ambition of scholar-bureaucrats, who wouldn't want to have more control!"
Li Shanchang was the prime minister of Zuo at that time, and he was also awarded the title of Duke of Korea as a civilian.
When he was recuperating in the later period, he still gained Zhu Yuanzhang's trust, and gradually became willful and self-willed, constantly testing Zhu Yuanzhang's bottom line.
Since the marriage with Hu Weiyong, the government at that time had become somewhat out of control.
As for whether Hu Weiyong wanted to rebel, or Li Shanchang was also involved, this will probably never be clear.
"However, Hu Weiyong was promoted by Li Shanchang, and the two were married. In addition, Li Shanchang relied on his own merits and repeatedly touched Zhu Yuanzhang's bottom line. In the end, the whole family was inevitably destroyed.
Today, Hu Guang¡¯s status is similar to that of Hu Weiyong back then. However, Zhu Di is still in office and the country is strong, so Hu Guang will certainly not be suspected of treason.
"They feel that the Ming Dynasty should be governed by civil servants. As for the king, it is enough to rule from the ground up. When they compile the history books, they will naturally add a few strokes. Then he is still a wise king!"
"Of course you are a wise king. As long as you don't care about anything, we will definitely give you a few good words when the time comes to ensure that your good reputation will be passed down to future generations."
but¡¡
Fang Xing smiled and said disdainfully: "If they screw up, I guess the king who rules from the top is the best scapegoat, and there will probably be one more tyrant in the history books!"
Zhu Zhanji was horrified when he heard this. He was only a few years old now, and Zhu Di had not even begun to explain the principles of monarch and ministers to him, so when he heard Fang Xing's analysis, he couldn't help but look at Jie Jin.
Xie Jin used to be a ¡®chief assistant¡¯, so he naturally has experience in this kind of thing.
But Jie Jin smiled bitterly and said: "Back then, I only knew how to do things. If you were dissatisfied, you would say it, if you were unhappy, you would say it. Now that I think about it, I did go a little too far back then."
But if you want to say that Xie Jin can have Hu Guang's scheming, Fang Xing and Zhu Zhanji will not believe it, and Zhu Di will not believe it either, otherwise he would not be able to escape from the imperial prison alive.
This guy is just a fool! Still a genius.
Zhu Zhanji's eyes turned cold and he asked: "Brother Dehua, I know this, but do civil servants still dare to suppress the king?"
"Why don't you dare?"
Fang Xing said slowly: "When in the entire Ming Dynasty, only the imperial examination can get ahead, then a consensus will be formed from top to bottom"
Zhu Zhanji held his breath. He felt that what Fang Xing said next would probably shock people.
"I have taught you some philosophy. Do you think it has many similarities with Confucianism?"
¡°In fact, Fang Xing didn¡¯t know much about philosophy. He just found a few books and passed them on to his students.
Zhu Zhanji nodded, and then Fang Xing smiled and said: "Confucianism emphasizes understanding things, cultivating the mind, cultivating the body, and reorganizing the family. What do you think this is? The way to govern a country?"
"But if there is no such thing, how can one's heart be strong? How can one study?"
Xie Jin retorted somewhat unhappily. In his opinion, these teachings in the university are the true meaning of life and cannot be changed.
hehe!
Fang Xing smiled and said lightly: "But why do I feel that this is practicing Taoism?"
Jie Jin was furious, but Fang Xing didn't give him a chance to argue, and continued: "Everyone is born different, and it is indeed necessary to cultivate one's mind and body!"
Jie Jin's face turned slightly bright, and Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but tilt his body back slightly, because he knew Fang Xing's method, which was to suppress first and then raise.
"But this is just your wishful thinking!"
Fang Xing sneered and said: "When it comes to cultivating one's mind and one's body, in my opinion, environmental influence is the biggest factor, followed by the human heart. Even though the nine sons of dragons are different, do Confucians want to make the world unified with just those few books? joke!"
Xie Jin said angrily: "Nonsense! If there is no Confucianism to correct people's hearts, how can there be order and hierarchy?"
Confucianism teaches us that heaven and earth are kings, relatives and teachers. Of course, there is an official hidden in it.
¡°Commoners, you must be obedient to officials, because this is the need of order, and it is also the natural division of classes.
"Look, it didn't take more than a few words for the true colors to be revealed!"
Fang Xing smiled and said: "Before the Han Dynasty, the Qin law was strict, but Lord Shang later died tragically. This is the price."
"Dong Zhongshu shouted to depose hundreds of schools of thought and only respected Confucianism. Then he took it as his own duty to cater to the king, and finally succeeded in making Confucianism a prominent school, occupying high places in temples and covering the common people"
"But what happened next?"
Fang Xing sneered: "After only respecting Confucianism, how many generations will rise and how many will fall?"
The Central Plains dynasties under the rule of Confucianism were always trapped in a cycle of chaos and chaos, and this was no exception.
"Cultivation? Have those corrupt officials practiced cultivation?"
"If it has been repaired, why is it useless?"
"Human nature is greedy, this is the only truth!"
Fang Xing stood up, walked to the table and poured a cup of tea for everyone, and then walked around: "In my opinion, Confucianism is useful, but it can only be used to assist, not to govern the country!"
Fang Xing pressed his hands and signaled Xie Jin to wait for him to finish.
"Not everyone can be taught to become a great scholar. If you just shout slogans, it is better to admit your own shortcomings and introduce other theories to benefit yourself."
Thinking of the corrupt officials who have been punished since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Xie Jin was silent. Obviously he also knew that Confucianism blindly worked hard in these aspects and flaunted its own morality, which was going too far.
"Then there are articles."
Speaking of articles, Fang Xing couldn't help but shake his head and said: "The imperial examination materials are used to govern the world, but you actually think that students who pass the eight-legged essay examination can govern the world?"
"Having half of the Analects of Confucius to rule the world, do you know how to make weapons? Do you know how to farm? Do you know how to build sea ships?"
Xie Jin was startled and then said: "Aren't there craftsmen and farmers? What use do I have to wait for?"
Zhu Zhanji had already heard the meaning of Fang Xing's words, so he just lowered his eyes slightly, with mixed feelings in his heart.
"Yes! What use do you need?"
Fang Xing looked at the big trees that were beginning to sprout buds in the yard, and said quietly: "Those who don't understand craftsmen should manage the craftsmen, those who don't understand farming should manage the farming, and those who don't understand shipbuilding should manage the shipbuilding. So, you still have What's the use?"
Xie Jin opened his mouth to say that we are the herdsmen of the emperor, but when he thought of what Fang Xing just said, the herdsmen did not understand the art of herdsmen, he suddenly became depressed.
Fang Xing laughed and concluded: "Fang Xue emphasizes practicality. Once you learn it, it will be useful, rather than studying the way of a gentleman or the way of a saint. Which theory is more useful?"
This was the first time that Fang Xing took the initiative to bring up the term Fang Xue. Zhu Zhanji knew what it meant, so he raised his eyebrows and said, "As far as the country is concerned, only the actual results are important!"
Xie Jin said dejectedly: "But I look at the courses you are teaching. After these students come out, will they be able to become officials?"
This is to use Zi¡¯s spear to attack Zi¡¯s shield!
Fang Xing shook his head and said, "Of course not!"
Before Jie Jin could show his proud look, Fang Xing said decisively: "I once submitted a memorial to Your Majesty, suggesting that officials of the Ming Dynasty should start from the lower levels when they start serving as officials. In other words, they must first become officials, and then Only then can we slowly improve based on our political performance!¡±
"This is impossible!"
Xie Jin denied it almost without hesitation: "No one asked me about it in ten years, and I became famous all over the world in one fell swoop"
"So no matter whether he is qualified or not, he still has to be an official, right?"
Fang Xing looked at Xie Jin with a half-smile and asked.
Jie Jin was stunned and couldn't answer, Fang Xing nodded and secretly praised him for not messing around, and then said: "Everything is inferior, only reading is good. This statement is correct in itself, but the mistake is that it is Confucianism. Is it necessary to become an official after studying? ?¡±
"What are you going to do if you don't do your senses?"
Xie Jin himself is an official fan, otherwise he would not take the initiative to ask Zhu Di to abuse him.
Fang Xing shook his index finger and said, "Tell me about the students who came out of Zhixing Academy, what else can they do if they don't become officials?"
Xie Jin thought of the textbooks he had read recently, his body suddenly shook, and he looked at Fang Xing in shock.
"You are digging into my Confucian roots!"
¡°After learning Fang Xue, even if you don¡¯t become an official, you can still easily find your future with that knowledge.
¡°Whether it¡¯s physics or chemistry, or even mathematics, politics, geography¡ once students finish learning these, they will be able to find their way into any industry.
"As for Confucianism, if you don't become an official or teach, you will have to relearn other knowledge to make a living.
Zhu Zhanji was pondering: Can students trained in Confucianism only be officials?
But are they up to the task?
