Chapter 356 How did the world fall?
(Some readers suggested that Princess Changping might be a title given by the Qing court, so it was revised and changed to Princess Kunxing)
Confronting Prince Zhu San in person was the old monk who followed Wu Sangui and was vicious to everyone he looked at.
Now that Prince Zhu was a noble person, he also knew that he had to "nurture his energy" and would not be as knowledgeable as a small person, so he smiled and asked the monk: "This master is..."
"The poor monk Jiashan Temple, Fengtian Jade!" The old monk clasped his fists, "I also experienced the Jiashen Incident, witnessed countless tragic things in the world, and finally saw through the world of mortals."
"Oh..." Prince Zhu San nodded and thought to himself: "You old bald donkey, you have seen through the world and want to ruin my good deeds. No, you must have taken refuge with Wu Sangui, you are Wu Sangui's
people!"
Wu Sangui was certainly in a good mood when he saw that Prince Zhu was deflated, and his impression of this old monk who always looked at people "vulnerably" suddenly improved a lot.
However, he couldn't let the two sides break up the conversation outside Ruiqing Palace, so he smiled and smoothed things over: "This is not the place to talk. Let's go into the main hall of Ruiqing Palace first!"
The main hall of Ruiqing Palace has long been converted into a conference hall.
The layout of the conference hall was all based on Zhu Heji's suggestions. There was a long table in the middle, with heroes sitting on both sides.
The long table was arranged in a north-south direction, dividing the hall into two. Zhu Heji's people were from Jiangxi in the east, so they sat on the east side. Wu Sangui's people were all from the west, so naturally they were all there.
Sit facing west.
Gu Yanwu, Wang Fuzhi, Zhu Shunshui, Wan Sitong, and Wan Sida occupied both ends of the long table, and they were probably the middlemen!
People on both sides have already taken their seats - now Zhu Heji is very particular about "sitting and talking", and Wu Sangui's hierarchy is not particularly strict. The people under him are all "loved relatives and friends", so they can sit down and talk.
Therefore, the atmosphere of this "Anti-Qing League of Legends Meeting" was relatively equal at the beginning... Being more equal would also be conducive to quarrels and blame-shifting!
Just when Prince Zhu San and Feng Tianyu were staring with big eyes, Gu Yanwu, who was presiding over the alliance meeting, was the first to speak: "The rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the scholar-bureaucrats; the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of every man...
. Now it has come to a time when everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. Therefore, we, the heroes of the Han family, will gather here today to discuss the rise and fall of the world!"
"The rise and fall of a country is the responsibility of scholar-bureaucrats; the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of every man." Liang Qichao summed it up from Gu Yanwu's famous saying. It was also mentioned by Zhu Heji, and now Gu Yanwu took it back as his opening remarks.
However, when Gu Yanwu said this, he couldn't help but frown, because he and Wang Fuzhi, Zhu Shunshui, Fang Guangchen, Liu Xuanchu and others had a good discussion, and they would form an "Anti-Qing Alliance" at this meeting, and then let Wu Sangui
Now that Chongzhen's edict has been settled, it can be concluded successfully.
Unexpectedly, several of Huang Zongxi's students became Wu Sangui's guests for some reason, and they started causing trouble after arriving at Jiugong Mountain. They took copies of "Ming Yi Waiting for Visits" and distributed them everywhere, apparently to read "Destroy the World"
"The old account.
If the account is turned over, it will be endless!
"Since we want to discuss the rise and fall of the country together, let's first discuss how the previous dynasty fell!"
Sure enough, Wan Sida continued what Gu Yanwu said.
Of course, this question was asked to Zhu Heji. Who made him rely on the great righteousness of the Ming Dynasty to become famous?
Since we have taken the legal authority of the Ming Dynasty, we have to take the blame for the Ming Dynasty!
Now it depends on Zhu Heji’s ability to shift blame?
"The Ming Dynasty fell first, and the Chinese Empire fell behind!" The speaker was Yang Qilong, who said plausibly, "Weizong died because Li Zicheng invaded Beijing, and after Weizong, it was not until the third prince and the third grandson that the Ming Dynasty was built again.
In the imperial court, the Ming Dynasty emperor no longer has real power. Even though he exists in name, he is actually dead. Therefore, the crime of Hua Xia's scandal should be attributed to Li Zicheng and a certain person who was so angry that he became a beauty!"
"Nonsense!" Monk Fengtianyu got angry when he heard this. "If Zhu hadn't made people miserable, how could the whole country be in rebellion? How could there be the Jiashen crisis?"
"That's right!" Wu Sangui nodded repeatedly, "Master Fengtianyu is right! The master is an outsider, and what he said is fair!"
Fengtianyu then said: "The Emperor Yongchang is in a mess. He wants money but no money, he wants food but no food, and he has no ability to govern the country and manage finances... He cannot be the master of the world at all. Besides, there are still people who do it.
Go to Shanhaiguan to lure the wolf into the house, and do things that will make your enemies happy and hurt your loved ones!"
"Monk, what did you say?" Wu Yingqi became angry when he heard this. "My father had to borrow troops from Qingyao to destroy Chuangnii! By the way, you call Chuangnii the Emperor of Yongchang, and you are Chuangnii.
Someone! Come on, get it for me!"
"Who dares!" Zhu Heji yelled, "Is this the Heroes' Meeting or the Hongmen Banquet?"
He glanced at the old monk Fengtianyu and said loudly: "Why can't Li Zicheng's people participate in the heroes meeting? Anyone who has fought bloody battles with the Manchus to protect China's Xia Tian is a hero... let alone the camp.
Many heroes from this background fought to the death against the Qing Dynasty, and finally died in the Chinese Empire! Compared with those who have heavy troops but still want to help the tiger, I don't know how much stronger they are!"
Wu Sangui's face turned livid, "If I hadn't raised troops in Yunnan, how could you have reached Jiangxi so quickly?
Moreover, I was indeed deceived by Dorgon and Fulin. They broke their promise and refused to honor the agreement to lend troops, forcing me to shave my head. In order to preserve the strength to fight against the Qing Dynasty, I had no choice but to temporarily commit myself to the enemy camp."
With that said, Wu Sangui winked at his military commander Fang Guangchen.
Fang Guangchen immediately took out the unequal treaty in which Kangxi used the emperor's treasure. "This is the treaty signed by Kang Mazi and the president to admit their mistakes and cede territory...it can be used as evidence!"
The Third Prince Zhu snorted: "It's just an alliance under the city!"
Wu Sangui's face turned black with anger, "Third Prince, what do you want?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhu Heji hurriedly interjected: "President Wu, the destruction of the world started at Shanhaiguan, and it should also end at Shanhaiguan..."
Wu Sangui glared: "You want me to go all the way to Shanhaiguan on the Northern Expedition?"
Zhu Heji smiled and said: "Let's go together!"
Wu Sangui took a breath, nodded and said, "I also have this intention!"
"Okay! Let's discuss this later!"
Zhu Heji paused, then raised his voice and said: "In Gujia's view, there are four reasons for the destruction of the world. First, my Ming Dynasty lost virtue, lost governance, and made mistakes... These three mistakes are inexcusable.
Debate, but Gujia thinks he has martial virtue, good governance, and many clever strategies!
The second is to break down the pillars that are struggling to support the world, but can't hold the cauldron of the world... If you can't carry the cauldron of the world, you have lost your morality, lost governance, and made a mistake, which is indefensible. But if you rush,
There are many heroic men in the Second Battalion, who fought against Manchuria for twenty years, and countless people shed blood on the battlefield. We must not forget them after we restore the world.
Third, you, the great president... whether you are a beauty or you are deceived by Dorgon, you are always the one who leads the Qing troops into the Central Plains!
As for the fourth reason for the destruction of the world, haha, scholar-bureaucrats are shameless!"
"Why are scholar-bureaucrats so shameless?" Wan Sitong never thought that he would be blamed for the fall of the world!
"Of course!" Zhu Heji said seriously, "If all the scholar-bureaucrats in the world were like me, a former Confucian, with truth in mind, a long sword in hand, and a thunderbolt hanging from his waist, how could two people destroy the world?
Moreover, since the Song and Yuan Dynasties, Confucian scholars and scholar-bureaucrats have long been unable to shoulder the responsibility of the world and the country. My ancestors are not scholar-bureaucrats; the kings of Chuangying are not scholar-bureaucrats; the president is not scholar-bureaucrats; and those Batulu in Manchuria are not scholar-bureaucrats.
.Excuse me, at this time when the world is rising and falling, what are all the scholar-bureaucrats in the world doing?"
"Good question!" A rather rough voice suddenly sounded behind Zhu Heji. Zhu Heji turned around and saw, oh, there was a tall and powerful man with a straight nose, a wide mouth, and a thick beard, looking a bit like a lion.
The king's tough man in civilian clothes was standing behind him at some point.
Just listen to the strong man saying loudly: "Confucian scholars from the Song and Yuan Dynasties have become accustomed to the behavior of women, which is very shameful. 'Sit back and talk about one's nature when there is nothing to do, and die in danger to repay the king', that is the best!"
Yan traveled around the world and saw that all the people in the world who were sitting in their studies were fragile and laughed at by warriors and peasants. How could this be a man? I didn't expect to meet some original Confucian scholars from Guangdong in Jiangxi, all wearing cloth clothes and scarves, and long swords and hammers.
He is full of martial virtues but also has literary talent. This is what a true Confucian scholar is!"
