Chapter 623 The general situation is difficult (Part 2)

"It's just a matter of being apart. We have friendships. There is no need for such etiquette, just talk about friendship among peers.

What I want to ask is, what did Master Zeng think about river engineering and the money he made from corrupt officials? I said the word "review" from the court recently. I was a little confused."

Zeng Disheng wanted to perform the rituals of his disciples, but Yang Meng did not dare to accept it. His age and reputation were not enough to be Zeng Disheng's teacher. Once he did it, this was the laughing stock in the future. He and Zeng Disheng's laughing stock. In addition to accusing him of Yang Meng's capture of power, people in the world would also accuse Zeng Disheng of his weak legs.

Zeng Disheng is different from Zuo Mule. Zuo Mule needs to be clamped. Zeng Disheng's role has been in the Westernization Affairs Office recently and in Chinese studies. It is exactly what Zeng Disheng must have. The same method cannot be used to deal with Zeng Disheng and Zuo Mule.

"Midian, this matter is a bit inappropriate, I am afraid it will be criticized by scholars all over the world!"

With his emotions, Zeng Disheng also told the truth. This is his view on the Yang Meng River Project.

"What if you do it according to these regulations?"

Yang Meng prepared very well for Zeng Disheng. Xu Ziwei's entry was already available. Of course, this was for the court to show it, and the wording must be upright.

After taking the herb handed over by Yang Butang, Zeng Disheng looked carefully several times and couldn't help but admire that this master of the ministry was still a bit inappropriate in handling the river corruption case, but this could undoubtedly play an excellent role in corruption.

Submit, respect, fear or admire, no matter what, Zeng Disheng was convinced by Yang Meng. After being convinced, he lost the intention of fighting for power and profit. Zeng Disheng's normal mind was back.

Holding a simple herb, Zeng Disheng thought about a lot of things. From Yuezhou to Wuhan, from Wuhan to Jiujiang, the Yang Butang in front of him was always mentioning him, and he was sincerely reminding him.

And this Yang Butang is not only a top-notch player in leading troops to fight, but also a top figure in governing the government. Now, looking at the notes on how to build canals and develop commercial affairs in Guhe River, it is a bit exciting.

Yang Meng, from Yang San to Yang Laosan, from Yang Laosan to Yangbutang, from Yangbutang to the corps that Zeng Disheng mentioned, has never been a mistake in his journey. Whether it is leading troops or managing government, Yang Laosan is his Zeng Disheng's master. It is still a matter of being a master!

This is the critical moment of intrigue, and Yang Meng certainly won’t relax. He looked at Zeng Disheng for nearly an hour without blinking. After sitting quietly for a long time, this man actually did something that surprised Yang Meng.

The great ceremony of respecting teachers who bowed three times and kowtowed three times and nine times, the teacup on the table was held in front of Yang Meng by Zeng Disheng.

"Teacher Zeng, this is a bit too much, right? You have a lot of eyebrows and beards. Isn't it a bit tricky to play with this?"

He raised his hands and rubbed his wooden cheeks. Yang Meng was also disrupted by Zeng Disheng's sudden arrival, which was a big deal.

"Master Yang, I deserve this gift!"

When Zeng Disheng said this, he looked solemn, and he didn't understand some things. He didn't know that what Yang Meng had done before, whether in Yuezhou, Wuhan or Jiujiang, was beyond what he should do. Not only did he give advice, he also saved his life twice. Now that he thought about it, this Yang Butang had no intention of suppressing Zeng Disheng.

After the Yuezhou deliberation, he felt a grudge against Yang Meng in his heart and had been deliberately alienating him. For many things, Yang Meng said, he just refused to do what he said. Now, Zuo Jigao's letters before the victory in Tianjia Town were probably mostly from the Yang Junmen at that time.

Zeng Disheng and Zuo Ji Gaojiu had letters. Although Zuo Ji Gao's letters were as old as before, many of the things mentioned in the letters, compared with the current Yangbutang's words, it is easy to know the source.

"Don't do this. Master Zeng did this. Are people in the world scolding you? Or scold me? How old is Master Zeng? What is your age? Some things are easy for peers to talk about. If you suddenly come up like this, you will have to reduce my life span?"

Yang Meng's scalp is really numb now. Zeng Disheng is a stubborn man. If he comes to this moment in front of outsiders, he, Mr. Yang San, can't bear it.

"There is no success in learning first. Master Yang did too much before, but Disheng was deaf, which made Xiang Yong defeat his troops and generals. Now Disheng was defeated in Jiangxi and almost died. It was still Master Yang who saved him. Disheng was ashamed of his previous cultivation."

Most people are emotional. The more Zeng Disheng thinks about it, the more he feels that what he does is a bit unpredictable, but Yang Butang becomes more and more difficult to reach. Although he is apart from his age, in the officialdom, this is not a shameful thing. If he does it well, it is a temporary beauty.

"Okay! Master Zeng is a stubborn person. I won't be angry with you. I will call you whatever you want behind my back. I will talk about friendships in front of outsiders and peers. I dare to be damn it. I will kill you!"

"Students follow the teacher's orders."

Zeng Disheng was arrogant and Yang Meng retreated step by step. This incident completely disrupted Yang Meng's rhythm.

"Don't say these useless things, what do you say about the affairs of the Neo-School Society in Yuezhou?"

The Neo-Confucian Society is the key to the key. It is to absorb scholars, devote themselves to the Westernization Affairs, and use the Westernization Affairs to change the views of most people. This is also part of the general trend. If this Neo-Confucian Society is well established, it is the foundation for Yang Meng usurping the Qing Dynasty.

"Why is Master Yang in love with Western Affairs? Can you explain it to the students?"

Zeng Disheng whispered to Master Yang and student, but Yang Mengnie was ruined. If this matter was spread, it would not be a good thing, it would be a bad situation!

"Don't call Master Yang, it sounds awkward. Just call him a ministry. You should call him Disheng! Your students are so scary!

As for the Westernization Movement, do you want to hear it? For me, the Westernization Movement is the real situation that is hard to bear!"

Some things cannot be habitual. If Zeng Di is born as a student in front of an outsider, wouldn’t it be a shame?

"It is difficult to take the general situation? Disheng doesn't understand! The self-sufficiency in Confucianism is to be at peace with each other, and Disheng thinks it is more appropriate."

Yang Meng was reluctant to be a master for a person like Zeng Disheng who was full of knowledge and questions. However, it involved major issues he planned. This teacher had to do.

"It's good to be self-sufficient. It would be even better if there was only our country in the world. Unfortunately, the Qing Dynasty is now a piece of fat meat targeted by hungry wolves.

I don’t know if you have paid attention to India. This is the lesson of the Qing Dynasty!

In the Battle of the Gengzi, there were 20 million yuan in compensation, several places of land were ceased, and five major commercial ports were opened. This battle was because of the four words of self-sufficiency. Before, foreigners went to the Qing Dynasty to do business, and they would not do anything other than giving money.

In order to change this situation, the British used opium, and now the evil consequences have come. That is the silver desolation of the imperial court and the defeat of the Gengzi. The eight banners of the imperial court and the deflation of the green camp were the main reasons, but the British ships and cannons were strong and profitable, which was also one of the reasons for the imperial court's defeat.

Build ships and cannons, this was what Mr. Lin thought back then. When he opened his eyes to the world, Mr. Lin was the first person, but unfortunately he didn't see it very comprehensively.

The steam engine in the West is the powerful tool that leads foreigners to become powerful. The steam engine is the power of trains on the ground and the power of ships on the sea.

The clutch I gave you is the so-called steamship. Think about it, with these things, how difficult it would be for foreigners to send troops to the Qing Dynasty?"

To persuade Zeng Disheng, he could not use his interests to attract him. In addition to interests, the most important point of the Westernization Affairs Office was to be humble, which was also Yang Meng's only breakthrough point.

"What the Budang said is mostly clear and true, but it is true. However, if you defend the enemy outside the country, just guns, guns, boats, and large-scale Westernization Affairs is a bit boring?"

Zeng Disheng understood these things, but when it comes to military affairs, these foreign guns, cannons and ships are enough. What's the use of more?

"Guns, guns, ships, change at once. If we really face the great powers, it will be like brown Beth and my firing guns. Foreigners will give us sub-products or machines that make sub-products, we may not be able to make good products, right?

The guys in the hands of soldiers are not as good as those of foreigners. Foreigners will enter the country. With ships and trains, not to mention 100,000 or 200,000 people, foreigners just need some effort. With Hong Kong Island, how many people can’t save as much food?

It is not as simple as you think. We can call foreign guns, cannons and ships. This military industry involves a lot of things, from physics to chemistry, chemistry to mathematics, and many things. If we want to build our own sharp guns, cannons, ships, we need to start the Westernization business.

Do you know this by learning from one example? We have to follow the examples of the Westernization Affairs Bureau, so that we can combine the Westernization Affairs Bureau with Confucianism and create our own things. You said, should this Westernization Affairs Bureau be done in a big way?"

If India is lost, Britain may not have the conditions to send large numbers of troops from land, but what about the re-capture of India? Or will Britain, Russia and France join forces to invade land?

Sometimes, if the difficulties cannot stop the army, as long as there is a profit, the great powers will rack their brains to get it. Of course, the biggest threat to the Qing Dynasty was still the defense on the sea and coastal areas, which was too weak after all.

Although some of these words are false statements, they may not necessarily not come true. Yang Meng's statement is most appropriate to Zeng Disheng. The threats outside can be seen from the foreign guns in the hands of the long-haired thief, and sow discord and profit from them. The ancestors played them in the Warring States Period two thousand years ago. It is not difficult to see the British ambitions from these foreign guns.

What interested Zeng Disheng the most was the combination of Westernization and Confucianism. If it could be handled in this way, it would be the best.

"Budang, how does this Confucianism combine with the Westernization?"

"Do I need to explain this to you? I'm afraid that there is not only the Analects of Confucius in Confucianism? Confucianism also emphasizes the Six Arts! There are many of these things in your stomach, and think about how to combine them yourself.

This is how this era is today. Two hundred years ago, Franchis dared not peek at my land in China. Two hundred years later, they dared to reach out.

The era we live in is a chaotic era, with a major change that has not been seen in three thousand years! Dong Zhongshu of the Han Dynasty, Zhu Xi of the Ming Dynasty, and Zeng Guofan of the Qing Dynasty, who changed Confucianism!

I don’t read much, and I can say almost all that is all. How to take the exam, read the book yourself!”

When debating, he was afraid that the three Yang Meng was not Zeng Disheng's opponents. He asked him to think about it himself and think about it himself. With the idea of ​​combining Westernization and Confucianism, he did not think about how to resist and finally produce results. Yang Meng is sure of this. With Zeng Disheng's knowledge and what Minghu did before, he would not have any results. I'm sorry!

The new master cannot answer questions and solve problems, and Zeng Disheng doesn't care. Although he has not studied too much about the books Yang Meng gave him before, he has read a lot of them. Combined with the past few days, he has become clear about his ideas. Not to mention some things, he can really combine them.

"Budou, are there only a few books about Westernization?"

"Many, hundreds of books! There are more Western books translated, thousands or tens of thousands of them, and those are just the most obvious things. Let's do this! I will arrange some familiar Western Affairs after a while.

You and Zuo Jigao prepared some people in the Science Society, and there were a lot of books, and your staff would be better.”

It was Yang Meng's original intention to hand over some achievements from Minghu and Xishan to Zeng Disheng. After all, relying solely on Xishan and Minghu alone, the talents cultivated in one year will eventually be limited. If all scholars in the world are involved, it will be simple to produce a few geniuses.
