chapter 111
The fireworks shaking, the people in the ancestral hall looked a little numb, and the confidants of several patriarchs yelled: "What the Fourth Master said is all!"
Huang Yunheng nodded with satisfaction. The so-called "wait and look at it again" was actually just a saying by misleading people. He would never choose the Qingliu law to be self-disciplined. Not to mention anything else, the "rapist and near-killing" alone was enough to behead him dozens of times. Some people said behind his back that the younger generations in Huangjia Village all looked like Huang Yunheng with long faces, deep eyes and round and fat noses. Even Huang Yunheng himself didn't know very well whether it was the seed he had laid?
Although there are lynchings such as pig cages, burying alive, and beating and killing among the people, it is only local customs and not court laws. The court does not care about it, and it is possible to deal with people without power, but it is impossible to treat gentry like Huang Yunheng. Now, the court has clearly ordered the "Qingliu Law". If Huang Yunheng is ungrateful and writes an affidavit of self-discipline with Qingliu. His handles are not just rumors. Anyone who comes out can send him to court or even behead him or her. Therefore, Huang Yunheng does not want to guard this Qingliu Law, but dare not guard it. In the entire Huang Village, he cannot observe the Qingliu Law, nor can he let others observe the Qingliu Law, which is one head higher than himself.
The tutor Gao Yanyuan shook his head and turned his hands away from the Huang clan ancestral hall. He was a well-educated scholar hired by Huang Yunheng for a large sum of money. Before the opening of the provincial school, five juniors of the Huang family could go to the provincial school to study, and Gao Yanyuan made great contributions. However, the Huang family was content with the "common" and made him secretly want to leave. Returning to the private school, Gao Yanyuan was stunned and saw the widow in the village holding a child standing at the door. The so-called widow in front of the door was full of right and wrong, not to mention that Huang Jiang was quite handsome. He looked around unconsciously, and there was no one else. Gao Yanyuan sighed and walked forward.
"Hurry, kowtow to sir!" Huang Jiangshi shivered slightly and pushed her son Huang Qi in front. Huang Qi was pretty. She looked at Gao Yanyuan, knelt on the ground with her knees, and kowtowed "dong dong dong dong". Gao Yanyuan's face changed, she stood sideways to the side, and whispered: "What are you doing?"
"Please ask Mr. Gao," Huang Jiang-san knelt on the ground and whimpered, "My son is willing to follow the law of Qingliu. Please ask Mr. Gao to write an affidavit."
"Keep the Qingliu Method?" Gao Yanyuan hesitated to look at the mother and son kneeling on the ground, and made a conspiracy in his heart. "Why?" He did not ask about this sentence. Huang Qi's biological father died of tuberculosis last year. Perhaps, Huang Jiang did not want his son to fall into the turbid current for her husband's last wish. Perhaps, according to the saying "the husband dies and follows the son", Huang Qi adhered to the Qingliu Method, and those who attacked Huang Jiang's idea would risk beheading and abandoning the market, and the orphan and widowed mother would have a support to establish themselves. But can anyone keep the Qingliu Method?
"Get up. Everyone has a heart that is upright." Gao Yanyuan sighed and whispered, "But illiterate people have no qualifications to observe the Qingliu Law at all." Looking at the mother and son kneeling on the ground, Gao Yanyuan felt compassion and explained, "In fact, the Qingliu Law is very strict. The so-called Qingliu, scholars and officials, respect their status with etiquette and law, and consolidate their power. But the higher the status, the greater the power, the greater the responsibility. Once they have committed it, the greater the harm, and it cannot be compensated by small punishment. Therefore, the etiquette and law pursued by Qingliu is far more stringent than the laws followed by the people of the People. They are blamed for every move, and are full of beheading, exile, and house searches. You don't even know the words, but you have to force your 'Qingliu Law', just like a seven or eight-year-old child who is desperately trying to lift a hundred pounds of stone locks, and he wants to crush himself to death."
"Not qualified?" Huang Jiangshi's face was confused and disappointed, and she sat softly on the ground, holding her child.
"Oh, get up." Gao Yanyuan nodded and sighed, "I feel sorry for parents in the world. If you are motivated, let Huang Qi come to the private school every day to listen. In the future, this will only depend on his own fortune. In the end, you have to write this affidavit by yourself." He paused and added, "There is no need to be bound."
"Thank you, Mr. Huang." Huang Jiang hurriedly asked the child to become a disciple again.
This time, Gao Yanyuan stood there without pushing her back and received three respectful prayers from Huang Qi. Seeing the orphan and widowed mother gradually moving away from the vast night, Gao Yanyuan sighed, went into the house and closed the door, lit the oil lamp, and on his desk, there was a copy of "Song Lifa". Gao Yanyuan washed his hands first, calmed his breath, and then gently opened the pages and pondered the three of them again.
According to the rules of the Ministry of Rites, for the sake of convenience, those who are willing to use the customs and orders of the Song Zhengtong and other customs of the dynasty are not allowed to explain to the court in particular. Those who are willing to abide by the Song Li Law and the Gentleman Law need to have a separate affidavit. After that, the court handled lawsuits and prisons first, according to the list filed in the yamen. Those who are involved in the Qingliu will be judged according to the Song Li Law and the Gentleman Law respectively. Other customs will be judged according to the original Song Li Law and the Lamp Law and Order. This practice seems complicated, but it is not the case. Because most people and the people are abide by the customs and orders, while scholars who abide by the Qingliu Law are very disgusted with lawsuits. Cases involving gentry are not simple at all. Even if there is no Qingliu Law and the Song Li Law, it is the same.
Late at night, in a study in the suburbs of Hangzhou, a lamp was like beans, and Shi Tingjian reported the situation in Shuzhou to Wu Zilong.
During the big ceremony, the public discussion of the academic government dismissed the position of Za Shouyong as the academic government. The Ministry of Rites immediately flew to the governor of Shuzhou and mobilized the garrison to arrest and imprison. A group of criminals and sent them to Ezhou for trial. Za Shouyong lost his position as a student in the school and did not dare to mobilize the regiments to fight against the official army, so he could only surrender. After that, in the public discussion of the elected academic government of the students, Shi Tingjian arranged for the Qi Niang and his daughter who had been harmed by Za Shouyong to appear and cry. Many students who originally supported Za Shouyong also turned against each other and recommended the academic government supported by the Li Society as they wished. Weng Dayu, a gentry who had a good reputation in the local area, had already chosen Qingliu Law and self-disciplined self-disciplined. The Cha family in Shuzhou was also seriously injured and could not make any big deal in a short period of time. "Wu Zilong nodded and smiled, "Others only value the position, but they did not expect that the school recommendation was the foundation."
"Phase" Shi Tingjian heard the voice outside his words and looked surprised.
"The Liao people invaded Jingdong Road in large numbers, and the court was unable to send reinforcements. Hou Huanyin couldn't bear it anymore and wrote a letter to me, wanting to join forces with me to impeach Chen Shaoyang. After the matter was completed, he would support me as the presidency. In fact, we just need to hold on to Qingliu, do things down-to-earth, and build a solid foundation, and don't need any other help at all."
Wu Zilong smiled and said, "If we could take power early, we could do more things. We could promote the clear and turbidity for the Song Dynasty and remove the filth!"
"Congratulations to my teacher! Congratulations to my teacher!" Shi Tingjian bowed. Since he gathered Confucian scholars to kill Cai Jing and Li Bangyan, Wu Zilong looked at him differently, protected him under his wings, and summoned him to his side. If there were important things, he sent Shi Tingjian to run around. In the eyes of the students in the prefectures and county schools, Shi Tingjian was like Wu Zilong's representative, and he followed him. Although he was still white, Shi Tingjian had indeed tasted the taste of power. If Wu Zilong could really be in the right position, then those who followed him would have risen. Therefore, Shi Tingjian was also a little excited.
"No need to do this." Wu Zilong smiled and waved his hand, saying seriously, "Why are we doing these things for our own honor and disgrace? When you have a long way to go in the future and are full of ambitions, you always think about Fan Wenzheng's sentence "Be worried about the world first, and be happy about the world later." By the way, you have passed by many prefectures and counties, and how is the situation of choosing laws and discipline in various places?"
Shi Tingjian hurriedly calmed down and slowly explained the situation of the gentry passing through various prefectures and counties. The Ministry of Rites first proposed that people choose their own laws and discipline themselves, and then compiled the "Gentleman Law" to distinguish the clear streams, making Wu Zilong's "Song Li Law" much weaker than expected. However, under the leadership of the students in prefectures and counties, many gentry decided to discipline themselves with the "Song Li Law".
After saying that, Shi Tingjian sighed, "It's really shameful to protect power. Mr. Deng was mistaken by a villain and actually agreed to his approach, allowing the people of the world to let themselves go. Ah, he was so angry that he no longer had the same aura as before. But" he shook his head and asked in confusion, "Did the mentor tolerate them in order to take into account the overall situation and discuss the big ceremony?"
"No," Wu Zilong smiled slightly, "I agree with the law and self-discipline."
"What?" Shi Tingjian said in surprise.
"The Master said, the master is loyal and trustworthy. No friend is inferior to himself." Wu Zilong said lightly, "The etiquette is not inferior to common people, but has existed in ancient times. There are many cunning and evil people in the world. It is so difficult to accept the "Song Li Fa" together!" He shook his head and sighed, "In fact, this etiquette is always to encourage people to be good. But there are always good people and evil people in the world. If some people abide by etiquette and other people do not abide by etiquette, then those who always abide by etiquette and law suffer losses, and good is enough to help evil. You, I have already known this, but we have not thought of a suitable solution. Everyone is determined to know that it is impossible to do it, and only wish to seek benevolence and benevolence."
"But"
"However, the Ministry of Rites's "choose the law and discipline the self-discipline" approach is a different approach. The benefits obtained by rituals are limited to the scope of those who abide by rituals and laws, and those who do not abide by rituals and laws will remain the same. As long as our rituals and laws are beneficial to people, one will inevitably have the potential to rise and fall over time. Those who do not abide by rituals and laws envy the benefits of rituals and laws, and will naturally come back one after another. People's hearts are tempted, so they will force them to be much stronger in observing rituals and laws. Of course, there will be many people who are stubborn and obey the incompleteness," Wu Zilong's sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, "How could the benefits of rituals and laws be seen without them? The Buddhist family said that Buddhism is vast and saves all living beings, but don't you see that there are still eighteen levels of hell."
Shi Tingjian was stunned when he heard this. Wu Zilong shook his head and sighed, "There has never been a matter of choosing a law and self-discipline before. If this matter is done, for our Song Dynasty, it will be like Pangu creating the world. From then on, those who are innocent and light will rise to heaven, and those who are calm will rise to heaven, and those who are heavy and turbid will sink to earth, and suffer from their evil roots. I heard that such strange thoughts came from Zhao Yuanzhi. Yuanzhi can convince the public and his martial arts can be powerful. It is comparable to Guan Zhong and Leyi in the future, if I can hold the position of the court, I will never let him be used by the State of Xia."
