Chapter 257 The saint is dead
Fushe is very strong.
During the Chongzhen period, there were more than 3,000 people under the Fushe Society, and most of them were scholars.
These people are quite famous in the local area.
It’s not that scholars are not good.
In peace, the country must need scholars to govern it.
But the problem is that in the late Ming Dynasty, there were major problems with the ideology of scholars.
To be precise, there is a big problem with the ideology of the entire environment.
For example, the Ming Dynasty boasted that the Ming Dynasty did not marry, did not cede land, and did not pay compensation.
There is nothing to brag about about these.
Many people may be disgusted with the incompetence of the Tartar Qing Dynasty, so they brag about it.
But I was a little overblown.
At the national political level, it cannot be explained by a sentence of not being in harmony, not cede land, and not paying compensation.
The upper ideology of ancient China had entered a rigid deadlock by the end of the Ming Dynasty.
Strong dynasties like the Han and Tang dynasties all had marriages.
Marriage is a political means to make the country more stable and win time.
The so-called backbone is meaningless at the political level and can also be bad.
For example, during the Chongzhen period, Huang Taiji wanted to discuss peace several times, but the people in the court were worried about the face of the heavenly dynasty, or persuaded themselves to show their backbone, and refused to admit that the Ming Dynasty was not a match for Jiannu.
If it were Han and Tang dynasties, they would have accepted that they were no match for now, so they should discuss peace and develop slutty.
This emotional ideological confrontation is not unique to the court, and it is also very common among folk scholars.
For example, at this moment, the people in Fushe felt that they were strong and dared to fight against tyranny.
What about it in fact?
They hadn't even understood the new policies of the court, and it was rain.
You have to ask them why the court is tyrannical today. They will tell you, isn’t it tyranny that the court has killed so many people?
The more incompetent a person is, the more he likes to climb to the moral high ground, because there is nothing in their minds, only one sentence: I am very kind, I am a good person!
As long as they say this, they seem to be possessed by all the sages, and they are instantly filled with power.
That night, a group of passionate scholars took to the streets.
Ironically, the two bosses of Fushe don’t know about this.
Zhang Pu and Zhang Cai had just finished talking at Zheng Sanjun's mansion and learned about the current situation.
That's what Zhang Pu said to this: "The situation is complicated, so we should not act rashly for the time being. We still need to find out the truth. Just now, when Lord Zheng was talking, there were hidden hidden things, and I am afraid that the truth would be tortuous."
Zhang Cai also agreed with his words: "For today's affairs, we will go to Beijing to ask for a meeting with the emperor next day."
When they arrived at Fushe, they found that Fushe was already crowded.
Not only were there people, but many people had already come out of it and came to the street in groups of three or five.
What to do on the street?
procession!
procession?
There were parades in the Ming Dynasty?
There were indeed parades in the Ming Dynasty.
The imperial power of the Ming Dynasty was indeed strengthened, but it was already a small government in the middle and late Ming Dynasty. The small government meant that local controls across the country were very weak.
This creates a power vacuum in many places.
The place is uncontrolled, and people who have mastered their thoughts, money and power will easily let themselves go.
Scholars in the Ming Dynasty were used to being unregulated.
So I developed many self-centered habits.
It is not right to say that this is the awakening of humanism. After all, everyone still believes in the holy path of Confucianism, and Confucianism has become Confucianism.
When Zhang Pu saw it, his face turned pale.
This is broken.
He and Zhang Cai quickly organized the remaining people.
"Don't be impulsive, there are still many doubts about today's affairs. Please listen to my words."
"Brother Zhang, you are the leader of the restoration society and learn the way of a saint. Today, the court is full of hawks, dogs, and minions, and the country is ruined and the loyal and kind. Do you turn a blind eye and listen to it?"
"Brother Zhang, we respect you for your righteousness. This bright world is bright and bright, and justice must be upheld. The court has no moral principles, so we should promote the holy path!"
The young man was named Hu Huanyou, who was a student of the Imperial College in Nanjing.
Nanjing Imperial College is a very sensitive place.
In February of the first year of Chongzhen, Shanyin Supervisor Hu Huanyou impeached Huang Liji, Shi Fenglai, Zhang Ruitu and others, and were in the presidency without any presidency.
It means that this Shanyin man named Hu Huanyou believed that the cabinet in the first year of Chongzhen was not doing anything and just got through it.
This offends power.
However, not only did it not happen, but its prestige in Nanjing Imperial College has increased significantly and it has gained many fans.
This hits many people's sensitivity.
Impulse the powerful and powerful, which can increase reputation.
Now, resisting the tyranny of the court can also increase reputation.
Whoever has a loud voice tonight will be more popular in the future?
Zhang Pu was speechless for a moment, and his mind suddenly became messy.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, everyone didn't have the patience to continue listening to what he said, they rushed out with Hu Huanyou.
It was obviously too late for Zhang Pu and Zhang Cai to stop him.
That night, Li Yan and others had just drunk for three rounds, and the people below came to report: "Sir, there are some people outside who claim to be students of the Imperial College, and shouted on the street to eradicate the treacherous ministers of the court, which caused chaos in the people!"
"What!"
Li Yan suddenly stood up, and Hong Chengchou and others also stood up.
"It's broken!" Hong Chengchou and Li Yan knew those young scholars too well.
Hong Chengchou was a Jinshi and Li Yan was a Juren.
If a scholar decides something, it will be difficult for his mind to turn around and he has a very stubborn temper.
"Hong Junmen, if you quickly take people out to persuade them to withdraw, if it is a big deal at this time, it will inevitably be out of control. You and I cannot explain it to Your Majesty."
Of course, Hong Chengchou knew that he immediately began to gather people and rush to the streets.
Li Yan also went out.
When they saw it shortly after they went out, they felt even more heartbroken.
The streets were already crowded with scholars.
One night, the scholars seemed to have all emerged from the ground.
That's right, this is Nanjing City, and the one you really lacks is scholars.
Those scholars were not only not afraid when they saw the army coming, but also became more arrogant and excited.
They shouted loudly, blushed and shouted: "Eliminate treacherous ministers and abolish tyranny!"
Such sounds spread across the streets, and the Qinhuai River was everywhere.
The Duke of Wei who was under house arrest and all heard it.
The Duke of Wei laughed and said, "It seems that Fushe has come forward!"
Duke Baoguo was also overjoyed: "It's still Duke Wei who is wise and knows that they can do big things, so he has come into contact with them early."
Chengyibo was also a little excited, and the eyes of other officials also lit up.
The bigger the incident, the better. The bigger the incident, the worse the court will be.
In the end, the new policy will even be abolished and Sun Chengzong, Zhou Yanru and others will be dismissed.
At this time, Hong Chengchou's men lined up on the street with muskets raised flat.
Hong Chengchou said: "Since you are scholars of the Ming Dynasty, you must be loyal to the court and your majesty. Why are you here to cause trouble?"
"The court is unjust, treacherous ministers harm the country, and tyranny harms the people. Since we are disciples of saints, we cannot watch the country collapse and the people suffer!"
"The court is unjust, and treacherous ministers will harm the country!"
Suddenly, several lightning bolts illuminated the night.
Then, it rained heavily.
But everyone did not retreat at all.
Hong Chengchou had no choice but to stay here, block them, and prevent them from moving forward.
That night, Nanjing City was completely in chaos.
At this time, Cao Wenzhao had already crossed the Yangtze River.
Lightning flashed on his face, reflecting the cold edges.
Cao Bianjiao rushed over and said, "Ship Cao, it's going to rain."
