The atmosphere of war gradually became stronger in the city of Nanjing. It was only under the strict supervision of Zhu Xieyuan, the Minister of the Ministry of War of Nanjing, that the Nanjing Camp was willing to train troops like an errand. However, these days, the Nanjing Camp became more diligent and went out every day.

Trained!

Moreover, the training of the Nanjing soldiers was probably real. They not only practiced formation, but also fired cannons and cannons at the Xiaoling Medical School Field in the outer city of Nanjing! The sound of cannons and cannons were mixed together, and it was so lively and exciting

Would knowing it frighten Zhu Yuanzhang who was buried underground?

In addition to the diligent training of soldiers in the Nanjing camp, the city gates inside and outside Nanjing were also fortified. Not only were fully armed soldiers guarding the top of the city, but checkpoints were also set up at the city gates. The gentry and merchants who came in and out were indispensable.

Make some inquiries. If you meet a passerby who speaks Shaanxi dialect, you have to ask carefully...

In addition to catching thieves and preventing thieves, in the streets of Nanjing, people are talking about something that sounds very new - Confucianism has come out again! And it is something new that has not been seen in the past. No, it is

The avenue of fresh coffins!

"Going out of the customs? What does this have to do with the great road? Does this great road come from outside the customs?"

"It's not a pass, it's a coffin! This avenue was found from the coffin of the Holy Master..."

"What? The coffin of the Holy Master? The grave of the Holy Master was dug?"

"It is said that someone dug it up!"

"Dig the saint's grave...who did this? Isn't this too immoral? If you are caught, you will have to be executed in a hurry?"

"We can't catch him anymore. That man is Kublai Khan... Kublai Khan, the founder of the Yuan Dynasty, has been dead for hundreds of years. Where can we catch him?"

"Kublai Khan... isn't that a matter of the Yuan Dynasty?"

"Yes! It happened in the Yuan Dynasty. It is said that Yelu Zhu, the son of that fool Yelu, did it. The two father and son are very powerful. They are Qiudalu Huachi, the founder of the Yuan Dynasty! Is their family responsible for serving as the Mongol Khan for generations?

Dig graves and fight! Not only did we defeat the sage master, we also defeated the emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty..."

"Let's talk about that avenue, what's going on?"

"This, it is said that in his later years, the Holy Master summarized a set of methods for seeking the Tao based on what he had learned throughout his life... However, the Holy Master thought that this set of methods was not exhaustive.

It was perfect, so he did not pass it on to future generations, but hoped that future generations would come up with a better way to seek Taoism than his method. Unfortunately, future generations are not very live up to it, and they have to let down the most holy master!"

"Then what exactly is this method?"

"I don't know... I heard that it will be published in the world soon, and famous scholars from all over the world are invited to go to the Confucius Institute in Qufu to check the posthumous works of Confucius to determine the authenticity!"

"That's a big deal!"

"It would be terrible if it were true!"

It is indeed a great event! Even the people in the city who are proficient in literature and writing know that "the emergence of the great road" is a great event. How can the scholar leaders in Nanjing not know it?

On the edge of the Qinhuai River, in the middle of Chaoku Street, on the eyebrow building belonging to Gu Mei, a famous prostitute in Qinhuai, there were three well-known talents among Nanjing scholars, who were also discussing the newly born avenue.

"It's fake...the Holy Master only pursues the ancient path and doesn't start a new one. How can he make a legacy of preaching and seeking the path?"

A fair-faced scholar in his twenties, who spoke Wu Yin, was giving a high-level speech while secretly looking at a twenty-eight-year-old girl who was painting nearby. He liked it and had a silly smile on his face.

.

"What the Grand Duke said is wrong!" Someone immediately came out to refute this white-faced scholar who spoke Wu pronunciation. "Reciting without writing, believing in the past but loving the past were the opinions of the Holy Master in his early years. And in his later years, the Holy Master also said

Pursuing the Tao... How difficult is it to use the knowledge of the most holy teachers to come up with some ways to find and realize the Tao? Moreover, the most holy teachers did not pass them on to future generations, but quietly

Let future generations of talented people come up with better solutions.”

The "Grand Duke" this man calls is Grand Duke Luo, Qian Qianyi's disciple, who has been elected as a candidate and is considered to be one of the best among the scholars in the south of the Yangtze River.

The person sitting and discussing Taoism with Grand Duke Luo was a Confucian scholar in his 50s, with a round face, a blue Confucian robe, and a gray beard. Although he was in a prostitute's house, his face was calm, and he did not specifically look at Gu who was painting.

Mei. The one who can maintain this style of "no prostitutes in his heart" in Mei Tower is of course Huang Daozhou, who was sent to Nanjing as an official by Zhu Youjian.

Huang Daozhou was a Jinshi during the Tianqi period, and when Zhu Youjian came to the throne, he was a bachelor of Hanlin and a scribe of Jingyanzhan. But Zhu Youjian didn't want to listen to him, a bachelor of ministers, teaching Confucianism at all, so he sent him to Nanjing.

Living in seclusion in Nanjing is indeed a torment for many officials who want to get promoted and make a fortune, but for scholar-type bureaucrats like Huang Daozhou, it is good to be able to spend some time in Nanjing and spend time on learning.

.

When he first arrived in Nanjing, he was still full of enthusiasm and wrote several letters about restoring the Liao Dynasty. Later, he found that Zhu Youjian was a particularly capable emperor, so he stopped talking nonsense and concentrated on studying his Neo-Confucianism.

Grand Duke Luo also had very high attainments in Neo-Confucianism, and he was very close to Huang Daozhou in terms of knowledge, but his ability to nourish Qi was far inferior... When he saw Gu Mei, his eyes straightened out!

"Hmph! What's the big deal? Maybe you're lying? One moment he said he was going to South Zhili to suppress the bandits, and the next moment he found trouble with Yan Shenggong in Shandong... I'm afraid he is the only one who wants to do it.

Know!"

At this time, another man dressed as a Confucian scholar spoke. His words were a bit off topic, and he was also suspected of slandering the emperor.

Huang Daozhou and Grand Duke Luo both turned their heads and looked at him, their brows furrowed.

This person is Huang Zongxi!

The famous Donglin successor, whose father was Huang Zunsu, one of the Seven Gentlemen of Donglin, was arrested and imprisoned for opposing Wei Zhongxian, and committed suicide.

Such loyal ministers have not been rehabilitated, and they are still unclear about their disloyalty and treachery. Xu Xianchun and Cui Yingyuan, who killed Huang Zunsu, have now been reused by Zhu Youjian and have become the top leaders of Jinyiwei.

Why don't you ask Huang Zongxi to hate Chongzhen Hunjun?

But the problem is that Hunjun can fight!

The Hunjun did not mess around at all on the battlefield. Over the years, he was invincible and conquered all attacks... Qingshi would usually say good things about such an emperor.

As for Xu Xianchun and Cui Yingyuan, if they follow the ignorant king, they will definitely not be able to enter the Traitors!

Maybe he will be recorded in history as a loyal minister and good general... I get angry just thinking about it!

"Taichong, you are also a filial and honest person now. You are famous among the scholars in Jiangnan. If you can go to Chongzhen High School for 10 years, you will be able to speak in front of the Long Live Lord, and the matter of your father's vindication will be settled.

.....”

Grand Duke Luo had the air of an elder and began to advise Huang Zongxi to become an official. In his opinion, only by becoming an official can one realize the value of life.

Huang Zongxi snorted: "My lord, do you want me to serve as a minister in the same palace as the enemy who killed my father?"

"This..." Grand Duke Luo was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say.

Huang Zongxi asked Huang Daozhou again: "Mr. Shi Zhai, you are a great Confucian, and you will definitely be called to Qufu to discuss Taoism. Can you take me with you?"

Huang Daozhou shook his head, "There is no need for me to take you there... because you and the Grand Duke are both on the list of Confucius and Lin's Taoists!"

"What?" Grand Duke Luo was stunned, "Me, I'm on the list too?"

Huang Daozhou nodded, "I looked at the directory at the garrison today. You and Taichong are both on it. There are also Gu Ning from Kunshan, Chen Zilong from Songjiang, Zhu Shunshui from Yuyao, Liu Jishan from Shanyin, Fang Manggong from Tongcheng, Chen Dingsheng from Yixing, and you.

My mentor Qian Muzhai, Wumeicun, Gong Zhilu and other talented people are also among them...Oh, there is also a Yangzhou Juren named Ji or something, who is also among them."

Grand Duke Luo was completely stunned. He was actually placed with so many great scholars. There must have been some mistake, right?
