The war has begun, but Yang Jingwei is a little calmer than before. Those thoughts of worrying about gains and losses are gone, and people are more relaxed. They abandon some boring ideas and are more happy.

However, the days were still boring. The appointments of Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng were passed without any obstacles. Without the days of fighting, Yang Jie felt that life was really meaningless, but he was eager to have a few things that made him worth fighting.

Hong Chengchou was appointed governor of Liaodong, and Lu Xiang was promoted to governor of Datong. Yuan Chonghuan was promoted from the governor of Liaodong to the Minister of War, which was a reward for his great victory. This thing that had been scheduled long ago has been delayed until now and has finally been fulfilled. This is also one of the reasons why Hong and Lu had no objection to the appointment.

Sun Chengzong took office as the Minister of War and was still a Grand Secretary. In fact, it was the same whether Sun Chengzong was the Minister of War or not. In terms of military affairs, everyone knew that this was the first person in the military.

Sun Chengzong resigned from the position of Minister of War, and Yang Jing became much more relaxed. Yang Jingzong was always afraid that Sun Chengzong would be run again. Many times, he did not want Sun Chengzong to intervene in matters other than military affairs, which was considered as a protection for Sun Chengzong. In history, Sun Chengzong was run several times.

Yang Jing's life was a bit ordinary and boring, but there was a person's life, which could be said to be "dark and dark".

This person is Yansheng Gong Kong Yinzhi. He is now "practice" the emperor's words and practicing the "human needs" of Confucianism.

Kong Yinzhi likes to lock himself in the study for nothing these days, and he doesn't know what he is fiddling with.

On this day, Kong Yinzhi was still locking himself in the study. He was working hard to practice what human needs. People must need a lot of things to live. If they don’t eat, they can last for several days. If they want to starve to death, it may take longer. Kong Yinzhi also hungry for several meals, and was so hungry that he couldn’t hold on. He insisted on not drinking water, which was even more difficult than not eating. If they don’t drink water for a day, Kong Yinzhi felt that his throat was about to catch fire.

However, today, Kong Yinzhi practices that people need first. Breathing. Kong Yinzhi keeps holding his breath again and again, trying not to breathe. However, obviously, he can't do it. Kong Yinzhi's face is flushed. After experimenting countless times, Kong Yinzhi came to the conclusion that this breathing is indeed the first requirement for people. Without breathing, a person will die in a moment, faster than drinking poison.

Although this principle is shallow, it actually exists.

After holding it in countless times, Kong Yinzhi, whose face was flushed and even a little purple, was constantly dazed. He had already had a deep understanding of the experience of human needs, but he was even more confused. What should he do next? Kong Yinzhi felt that he should go to find the emperor.

On this day, Yang Jing still started as he used to be, still dressed as before, and his days were really going through day after day, without any new ideas.

The weather got colder again, and Yang Jing remembered that the clothes on his body seemed to be thicker again today.

"It's a little colder today!" Yang Jie put on his clothes and sighed. The weather gradually became colder, and the war was getting closer and closer. When spring begins next year, it will be a decisive battle of thousands of miles.

"Report to Your Majesty, yes, these days have become colder than the previous few days. I'm afraid it will snow soon." Wang Chengen replied quickly.

"Yes! It's snowing soon." Yang Jing sighed.

"…What is important today?" Yang Jingwei asked.

"Report to Your Majesty, Yan Shenggong asked for a meeting." Wang Chengen quickly reported the report.

"Kong Yinzhi said reform.

"I obey the order..." Wang Chengen agreed.

It is still in the warm pavilion. Until now, this warm pavilion can be called a warm pavilion. Yang Jie went out and felt a little cold. When he returned to the warm pavilion, it was indeed much warmer.

"My minister Kong Yinzhi will meet your Majesty." Kong Yinzhi still gave a tidy and neat ceremony.

"Don't give me a gift, your family will come to see me, but is there something wrong?" Yang Jing asked briefly.

"Report to Your Majesty, I am here to listen to Your Majesty's teachings." Yansheng Gong Kong Yinzhi said quickly.

"Oh, hehe, what do you want to listen to me?" Yang Jing smiled and knew without thinking. It was probably time for Kong Yinzhi to have a short circuit again. The clockwork he put on last time was probably gone, and it was time to put on him again.

"Report to Your Majesty, I listened to the teachings here last time, and felt that I had realized something. I felt that human needs are indeed the essence of Confucianism. Human needs are Confucians. Confucians should take it as their responsibility to solve human needs. For example, the first need of a person is breathing. It is impossible for people not to breathe. Just like Confucians talk about loyalty, filial piety, loyalty, forbidden benevolence, benevolence, benevolence, benevolence, peace of the world, and peace of the people in the world, and life, living people, and living paths. I think this is very consistent with the essence of Confucianism..." Kong Yinzhi immediately said a lot, Kong Yinzhi also put in a lot of effort in combining human needs with Confucianism.

"Haha, the Qing family is very good at understanding, it is indeed good. I really appreciate it very much, "establish a mind for the heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the people, inherit the unique knowledge of the past sages, and create peace for all ages... These four sentences are the best expressing the minds of Confucians and the best showing the knowledge and ambitions of Confucians. Confucians should have this spirit. With this spirit, it is not in vain to call Confucians, nor is it in vain to write Confucians by people."

Yang Jie smiled and said, it seems that the effect of winding the clock last time was pretty good, and Kong Yinzhi was very good at following the way.

"Your Majesty is wise, please give me advice." Kong Yinzhi still asked for advice seriously, just like a student asking for advice from the teacher.

Only,... I have said that if you want to do something, you must innovate based on the predecessors. Your thoughts and speeches must surpass your predecessors. In addition to surpassing your predecessors, you should also benefit future generations for hundreds of years or even thousands of years. Otherwise, how can you become a saint? The reason why a saint is a saint, not others is the difference. "... Yang Jing began to wind up Kong Yinzhi again.

"I am stupid, please let Your Majesty make it clear." Yansheng Gong Kong Yinzhi continued to ask for advice seriously.

Only,..., the Qing family might as well understand these four sentences well, and they will definitely gain something..."

Yang Jingwei said.

"...Your Majesty, I'm stupid, please let Your Majesty understand..." Kong Yinzhi said again. He had never thought about these words. His feelings were really limited. Although he shouted loudly, he really couldn't tell the reason. He also knew that the emperor did not tell him lies. The emperor took him seriously. In addition to warning him not to throw away the traditional project of education, if he wants to become a saint, he must make innovations. He must be different and different from his predecessors, and must surpass the achievements of his predecessors. Otherwise, as the emperor said, how can he become a saint? And to do these things, only

He alone is absolutely impossible to do it. His only chance is to rely on the emperor. Kong Yinzhi also saw that the emperor now has a strong desire to change this society. To put it bluntly, the emperor wants to "reform". Since the emperor wants to make a change, he must have a reasonable theory in his words and deeds to support it. If the emperor wants to have a theory in this regard, he must have corresponding people to come out to advocate for the emperor and act as the emperor's "verbal" originally. From the perspective of Confucianism and Kong family, he should not support the emperor in this way.

Kong Yinzhi carefully learned about the emperor and found that he did not seem to have any ability to influence the emperor, and he seemed to be unable to stop the emperor. To this day, almost everything the emperor had to do. Kong Yinzhi did not believe that he was a Yanshenggong in the eyes of the emperor. If he did not come forward, others would come out to do this. For example, Liu Zongzhou, the great scholar of the world, was also under the imperial party. The old ones were Liu Zongzhou, the younger ones, and the Huang Zongxi. The emperor was not unprepared. If he did not approve of the emperor, the emperor would also use other people to do this. Instead of this, Kong Yinzhi felt that he might as well do it.

He came out to act as this corner, and participated in it himself, at least he knew the whole story of the whole incident. After that, he could continue the Kong family's brightness. Perhaps as the emperor said, it was impossible to create another saint. Due to the emperor's always reputation, Kong Yinzhi was more willing to believe in the emperor. Kong Yinzhi knew that his ideas were not important. What was important was to understand the emperor's words and understand what the emperor wanted to achieve. This was his value. Without this, his value to the emperor was almost zero. Therefore, Kong Yinzhi took this matter extremely seriously.

"Well..., let's say that, these four sentences are indeed good, and they are very consistent with the essence of Confucianism and the interpretation of human needs. However, I am willing to use a few simpler words to express human needs and the essence of Confucianism..." Yang Jing thought about it and decided to add more and tighter the spring for Kong Yinzhi this time. Otherwise, Yang Jing would be tired if he had to spend a few days in this way!

"I would like to ask your Majesty for advice." Kong Yinzhi said extremely seriously.

"As the Qing family said just now, the first requirement for a person is breathing. Extend it a little more, that is life. Then extend it this way, it can be combined with benevolence, righteousness, loyalty and forgiveness... But to sum it up, it is only two words: people's livelihood. People, the people of the people: life, life, production, life......" The Qing family might as well take this topic as a topic and think about it, and I think you will understand it..." Yang Jing said, and threw out this important keyword, hoping that this time the clockwork can make Kong Yinzhi think longer, and hope that this brainstorming will blow a little more powerful.

"People's Livelihood?" Kong Yinzhi was stunned for a while. This word?

"Yes, it is people's livelihood. This word is highly summarized by many things. The Qing family might as well think carefully. Since this word is people's livelihood, the Qing family would be better able to observe and understand what people's livelihood is. I believe there will be some gains..." Yang Jing said that at this time, Yang Jing took a step forward in the field of thought. Perhaps this step is a bit big, and there may be many unknowable dangers. But since Yang Jing decided to change the world, he must take this step, only seeking safety and only seeking to be able to pass. This is not possible to follow the rules. If you want to rely on your own strength to "defy the heavens" in the end, you will be exhausted. To completely change this society, some things must be allowed to be born, and some roads must be passed.

"I obey the order! Thank Your Majesty for your teachings." Although Kong Yinzhi seemed to have some insights, he couldn't explain the reason for this for a while. He just felt that the emperor had indeed mentioned important things, which might be what he would do in the next stage. He thought about it, saluted seriously, and prepared to carefully execute what the emperor had told him.

After chatting with Yansheng Gong Kong Yinzhi for a while, Yang Jie asked Kong Yinzhi to go back.

When Kong Yinzhi left, Yang Jing became sad again, or even more emotional. The words behind people's livelihood are civil rights, and in the future, they are "democratic". These words undoubtedly require some things that require everyone's lives, such as the old emperor. Yang Jing thought that the words he directed might take his own life in the future, so Yang Jing could only smile bitterly. He smiled sincerely.

The emperor did not do what he did, digging his own grave, this was a feudal imperial system that would have to be buried for thousands of years! However, since it was about changing society and trying to promote social change, these words would definitely pop up. Otherwise, society would never change, and there was no need to talk about progress. Some things were destined to be contradictory.

Of course, Yang Jingwei was even more affectionate. He buried the emperor's rights and systems with his own hands and ended the profession of the emperor himself. Who dares to say that he has no love? Ordinary people really can't do it.

This incident is one of the few things that made Yang Jing fight for. Yang Jing's thinking has not been running as fast as it is today for a long time. The situation of fighting has come to Yang Jing again.

Blood was in the rushing place. Although Kong Yinzhi had been away for a long time, Yang Jingyu's face was still red.

It took a long time for Yang Jingwei to retreat from this endless thought.

"Your Majesty" Wang Chengen has been serving him all the time. Seeing that the emperor was blushing so hard that he was a little scared. He wanted to remind the emperor, but he saw that the emperor was pondering and did not dare to disturb him. He could only wait anxiously. Seeing that the emperor finally woke up, his heart finally relaxed and he quickly handed the tea on it.

"Well" Yang Jing drank a cup of tea. Although the tea was a little bitter, after a little bitter, the fragrance would be sweet. Yang Jing felt that what he did would definitely be like tea. Although the bitterness would be bitter, after it was bitter, it would definitely be sweet after it was bitter.

When Wang Chengen saw the emperor drinking a cup of tea in one breath, he quickly added water.

"Big partner, go and invite Master Sun to come." Yang Jingwei said. After being busy with ideological matters, Yang Jingwei still had to think back to the reality.

"I obey the order!" Wang Chengen agreed and hurriedly went to pass the order.

"See Your Majesty!" Sun Chengzong arrived soon, and the platform was very close to Qianqing Palace.

"Master Sun, sit down..." Yang Jiewei said.

"Thank you Your Majesty!" Sun Chengzong thanked him.

"...Master Sun, this incident in Ryukyu will be very likely to have a result soon..." Yang Jie said.

"Report to Your Majesty, yes, if your Majesty crushes the matter with a thousand pounds, how can Japan hold on to it? Sooner or later, there will be a result." Sun Chengbi said.

"Well, this is also a fact. After the matter of Ryukyu is over, you have to be wary of the court officials' words." Yang Jie said again. According to the news from the south, the facts of Ryukyu Kingdom are not difficult. It is really not difficult to deal with the Ryukyu Kingdom occupied by Japan and rescue the king of Ryukyu Kingdom. Yang Jie was a little worried that the court officials took the opportunity to cause trouble. In fact, it was not afraid of them. He just had to defend himself in advance. Now Yang Jie did not have the skill and mood to fight with those court officials. Fortunately, those court officials seemed to be scared by themselves and did not dare to provoke them easily.

"Report to Your Majesty, it's okay. This matter is simple. You just need to continue to block the sea on the grounds that the Japanese may disturb you and repeat it. You just need to explain to the navy. It's not difficult to think about this matter..." Sun Chengzong said.

"Yes! This is indeed not difficult, but Yuan Chonghuan will be in Beijing for a long time! Master Sun thinks that Yuan Chonghuan can really be competent for the position of Minister of War?" Yang Jing asked. Yuan Chonghuan is about to enter Beijing to serve as Minister of War. This idea was made by Yang Jing. Now, Yang Jing asked Sun Chengzong again.

"Report to Your Majesty, Yuan Ziru has experienced this year's war. He has practical experience and experience in leading troops. He is much better than ordinary people in military affairs. When fighting, he has his own means. He may not disappoint His Majesty." Sun Chengzong thought about it and said that Sun Chengzong also felt strange. Didn't Yuan Ziru decide to be the Minister of War. Why did the emperor ask him?

"Oh, hehe, indeed, Yuan Chonghuan has practical experience, which is what I value. However, as Master Sun said, he has his own system in wars, and his methods of fighting are the main reason why I value him. Otherwise, I would not have let him be the Minister of War..." Yang Jing said with a smile.

"This, Your Majesty" Sun Chengzong was confused. What exactly did the emperor want to say? What was Yuan Ziru's own system of fighting methods? Could it be that "scout war" mentioned? Thousands of deaths, tens of thousands of people are still called scouts? The emperor attaches great importance to this?

Although Sun Chengzong was a little contemptuous of this method of covering people's eyes and even stealing the bells, he had to admit that this method is indeed very effective. Driven by not counting casualties, but only counting results, everyone in Liaodong has made great efforts to achieve results. Now, it is considered to be a way to suppress the Donglu and block it very tightly. The so-called battlefield cover can be considered the most. There are few people in the Donglu and even fewer elites. How can we afford to fight with the Ming Dynasty? In the face of thousands of elite soldiers who died, they are called "scouts", there is no way to fight, and we can't afford to be injured!

"…How can I say it? I actually think that perhaps Yuan Chonghuan will be more promising in a naval battle than commanding the army..." Yang Jingai said with a smile.
Chapter completed!
