Zhou Yanru would not see two cards, so he shied away to Qian Qianyi.
In the cabinet compound, Qian Qianyi had been dealing with Er Zhang with a stiff smile. He could say something at first, but afterwards, he really didn't say anything.
Where did Er Zhang give up, asking Qian Qianyi to urge the court to immediately stop arresting people, and release them, and no more similar actions!
In Zhou Yanru's class room, Liu Zongzhou sat opposite him, with unprecedented solemnity.
Liu Zongzhou said: "Yuanfu, the reform and reformation officials have doubts in their hearts. Is this the beginning? Start with the slaughter of the world's scholars?"
Others, Zhou Yanru, can ignore it. This is not only a minister of the criminal ministry, but also a Confucian master, so he can't save face.
Zhou Yanru looked at Liu Zongzhou, his face was square, and his voice decisively said: "The world is upright, and the people's minds are changing. This is the general trend! Anyone who wants to become a stumbling block to my Zhongxing Daming, let alone Zheng Xibo, is the official, and never allow!"
Liu Zongzhou looked cold and firm, and said: "If the court wants to burn books and confess Confucianism again, then take me as the first! If Yuan Fu is relentless, I will go out and die before the Wumen Encounter. , To fulfill the wish of Yuanfu Zhongxing Daming!"
Seeing Liu Zongzhou's firm attitude, Zhou Yanru's expression slowly loosened, and he sighed softly, saying, "I hope you don't be impulsive, and you don't mean to kill so many people when conquering Xibo. As a result, they are involved in the adversary. Check it out. Secondly, they are really outrageous. Nanjing openly confronts Beijing. What kind of style is it? Don't worry, I will persuade Zheng Xibo. No matter what, he will not really pick up the butcher knife..."
Liu Zongzhou suddenly got up and said: "The lower officials wait for Yuanfu, the attitude of the court, if the court really wants to open the door to killing, I, Liu Zongzhou, would like to be the first!"
After speaking, Liu Zongzhou turned around and strode away.
The back is as straight as a mountain, sonorous.
Fan Wenjing came in afterwards, with a worried expression, and said, "My lord, we are afraid that Zongshi Liu will be the second of Fang Xiaoru."
Fang Xiaoru would go out too much. Emperor Taizong Zhu Di launched the battle of Jingnan and captured the mountains of Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunxi. Zhu Di wanted legitimacy and hoped that Fang Xiaoru, the great Confucian master, would write an edict for him and win people's hearts.
Fang Xiaoru refused to give in, and wrote the big characters'The Usurpation of King Yan', and was eventually condemned by Zhu Dizhu to even the'Ten Clan', which has never existed in ancient or modern times!
Zhou Yanru didn't have any worry on his face, and said, "What is Zheng Xibo up to?"
Fan Wenjing said: "Zheng Xibo went to the Hanlin Academy. It is said that the Daming Law is almost perfected, and I am preparing to draft a complete book on the "Da Ming Ritual and Law"."
In today's world, etiquette is more important than law. If Zhou Zheng wants to practice etiquette, it will be more important than law!
Zhou Yanru furrowed his brows and said faintly: "You stare at Liu Zongzhou, Qian Qianyi, and the people in Fushe. Tell me immediately if there is any movement."
Fan Wenjing looked at Zhou Yanru's expression, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Yuan Fu wants to watch from the sidelines, watching Liu Zongzhou and others attack Zheng Xibo?"
Zhou Yanru took a sip of tea and said blankly: "What do they do with me when they are fighting?"
Fan Wenjing smiled bitterly, and said: "My lord, you are the first assistant. What is going to happen to the court? All the people in the world are watching you. On the surface, Zheng Xibo has been outside the court? Even if you don't say this, you really want to If something goes wrong, Zheng Xibo throws you out, can you resist it?"
Zhou Yanru was very happy at first, listening to Fan Wenjing's words, his expression changed drastically, he stood up quickly, and said anxiously: "Quickly, go to Zhang Sizhi, let him send someone to watch Liu Zongzhou, Qian Qianyi and others, what if What's wrong, I'm asking him!"
Fan Wenjing responded and quickly turned and went out.
Zhang Sizhi was a secretary of the Criminal Ministry. Hearing Fan Wenjing's retelling, Liu Zongzhou was scared in a cold sweat when he was in front of Zhou Yanru. He directly tied Liu Zongzhou and sent someone to stare at him.
At this moment, Zhou Zheng and Zhou Fang, Sun Chuanting, Gao Hongtu, Zhang Heyi, etc. were strolling in the imperial courtyard, watching and talking.
Zhang Heyi shook her head straight and said: "This group of people, if they don't know when the trouble will come, they can't be more pragmatic, take a closer look and do things with concentration?"
Gao Hongtu was beside him and said, "From a certain point of view, what they said and what they did is not wrong. We are now partisan, and the parties are fighting with each other by all means."
Zhou Fang snorted coldly, and said, "If this is not the case, let them all live in harmony, not to mention the reform? Can we still have a way to survive? Daming will continue to do so, and sooner or later let them subdue the country!"
Gao Hongtu seemed to know that what he said was a bit too much. After thinking about it, he still said: "After all, it's a different stand. They are on the wrong team."
Zhou Zheng, who was walking in the front, suddenly looked back at Gao Hongtu.
Gao Hongtu's expression was slightly tight, and he raised his hand and said, "My lord, what the next official said is the truth."
Zhou Zheng smiled, stopped, looked at several people and said: "What you are telling is the truth, there is nothing wrong, there is no need to be nervous. Change, reform and reform. Reform and reform itself are illegal, not illegal, how to change the law? Anything. The reforms all started from breaking the law, and it has been the same from ancient times to the present. You can read the noble books more thoroughly."
Gao Hongtu raised his hand and said, "I don't dare to be an official."
Zhou Zheng waved his hand, looked at a few people, pondered for a moment, and said: "The law reform starts from breaking the law. We must all be aware of this. Since it is illegal, it will inevitably cause backlashes and attacks. Most of the historical reforms have been encountered. Blocking, some failed, some were settled by the autumn queen, and it was probably a bad end. We took these people today, and in the future, they may not be the ones who took us. Today they have resentment, and when we come to us, we don’t need to have it. Today Because, in the future, we can know our cause, but they may not know their cause, so they resent, so we are more sober than them."
Zhou Fang, Sun Chuanting and others looked thoughtful at what Zhou Zheng said.
Zhou Zheng paused for a moment, and continued: "Innovation, for the small one, the law of one shop, the rule of one shop; the big one, the government of one province, the government of one country, and even the change of dynasties! What we innovate is the law, the law of etiquette? Is it big or small? In the final analysis, what we want to reform is the mind and the mind! A group of people with ideas will continue to join in with the same ideas, and the scale will become larger and larger, sweeping those backward and decadent into the dust. The prosperity and weakness of a country all start to change from the heart of the people. Rich but three generations, small ordinary rich people, hit the country's country, this law has never changed, why? People's heart changes, no matter how rich the land, no matter how good Policy, no matter how sharp the weapon is, can't stop decline..."
Zhou Zheng rarely said so much, Zhou Fang, Sun Chuanting and others could not help but listen carefully and think.
Zhou Zheng waited for them to digest for a while, and said: "We need to find our like-minded allies, promote our cause, and accomplish Daming’s great cause of Zhongxing! We are a collective with lofty goals, seeking truth from facts, pragmatic and hardworking, and brave to move forward. It is not to exclude dissidents and fight for power, not to be crony parties!"
