Chapter 0154 How to be a good emperor?!
“It seems to make sense.……”
Lan Yu said in a daze.
Xu Da also frowned and nodded:”The emperor of the Yuan Dynasty lost the world because he lost the support of the people.”
Since ancient times, no one has raised the status of the people to such a high level, even as high as the heavens!
But now after listening to Zhu Heng’s words, it seems impossible to refute.
Because everyone started out as a rebel.
I fully understand how terrible the public sentiment is.……
“Water can carry a boat but also capsize it? No, this theory of people’s hearts seems to be more profound. Zhu Yuanzhang also started to think about it.”
Zhu Heng’s theory of people’s hearts is a step further than Li Shimin’s theory that water can carry a boat and capsize it!
Li Shimin only said that the emperor should act cautiously, and his understanding of the emperor’s position was only superficial.
But what Zhu Heng said, But the source of the legitimacy of the emperor’s rule is the support of the people!
This is the essential reason why the emperor started his career! This is the difference between level 890! It was quiet, and there was a look of confusion and thinking in his eyes.
“how? The eldest prince can always tell some unexpected truths!
Seeing that Song Lian’s anger had calmed down, Mao Xiang smiled and said:”Use the people’s will to explain the destiny of heaven!” Who is dissatisfied?”
Song Lian snorted coldly from his nose, but still seemed dissatisfied.
Feng Sheng shook his head helplessly and said to Mao Xiang:”Don’t recruit him. Mr. Song is not so easily persuaded. Let him think carefully.”
“Woohoo.”
Song Lian suddenly struggled to say something, with a serious face.
Everyone looked at Feng Sheng.
Feng Sheng helplessly spread his hands:”I’m not a roundworm in his belly. How can I know everything?”
“Get him a pen and paper.”
After all, Song Lian is an important minister of the country, and he is also a master of Confucianism. He is proficient in the classics and principles. Now what Zhu Heng said is a bit false. It is time for Song Lian to speak and explain to everyone.
But there is no place to find paper and pen at the moment. Fortunately, there was tea on the table. Song Lian was able to free his hands and write on it with his fingers.
“Destroy popular opinion and protect my imperial power!”
“The theory of destiny cannot be shaken!”
At this time,
Li Shanchang suddenly realized something and said with some hesitation:”It makes sense, but it seems to be talking about the people’s will instead of the destiny?”
“Isn’t this bad?”
Everyone was a little hesitant after hearing this…
The eight words”mandated by God to live long and prosperous” represent a theory of destiny that has influenced China for thousands of years.
That is to say, the emperor was chosen by heaven, which is called destiny.
Isn’t this right? Not to mention the truth.
It mainly strengthens the sanctity of imperial power and is conducive to rule. However, once the people’s opinions are expressed, it will hit the theory of destiny. When he canonized the Potato Immortal, Zhu Di had already attacked the theory of destiny. There has been a debate in Shilin.
Now to talk about people’s opinions will only accelerate the destabilization of the theory of destiny.
“Yes, yes, that’s what it tastes like!”
Who knew that as soon as he said this, Zhu Heng seemed to have seen some treasure. His eyes suddenly lit up and he nodded repeatedly.
In the astonished eyes of Li Shanchang and others,
Zhu Heng said:”All the emperors and ministers are holding their arms. This kind of thinking caused their understanding of the throne to deviate!”
“The emperor is not that serious at all!”
After saying this, everyone was stunned.
“What did you say? Li
Shanchang couldn’t close his mouth from ear to ear:”How could this be wrong?” Tianming said that he was protecting the emperor!”
“The theory of destiny was suspected of deceiving the people, but Zhu Di was indeed very puzzled by the good emperor, even though he had previously refuted the theory of destiny when he offered sacrifices to Sheji.”
But he knew in his heart.
Covering the imperial power with a mysterious cloak would help confuse the people and safeguard the emperor’s rule.
Anyone with some brains can see this.
Why would Zhu Heng deny it?
Zhu Yuanzhang was also confused. :”Let’s not talk about the truth or falsehood of what Tianming said. First, tell me, where did your Li family’s father-in-law go wrong?”
“His mistake was that he treated the people as tools, beasts, and slaves, but he refused to treat them as human beings!
Zhu Heng asked back:”Do you still remember what I said at the beginning?””
“We are ordered by heaven, and this heaven is the people’s hearts!”
“I won’t argue whether Tianming’s statement is true or false, I just ask one question”
“Are people’s hearts and minds won with words, or with actions?”
The words fell.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
The answer was self-evident.
But Zhu Heng smiled leisurely and said:”Where are the differences in the emperors’ understanding of the throne?”
“They forgot how their power came from!”
“They forget that the most ordinary people can gather the power to destroy the world.”
“In order to maintain their rule, they will kill all factors that are not good for themselves but good for the people.”
“As a result, the society became dark and decadent, the people became numb, and the bureaucrats continued to be corrupt.”
“While the emperor complained about all this, he forgot”
“It was himself who caused all this!”
“So how to be a good emperor?”
“very simple”
“Don’t forget how you became the emperor! Give the people a good enough life, and the people will give him unexpected feedback!”
