Zhao Han put away his smile: "Brother Chu Yu, I used to be a refugee, how could I not know about a refugee?"
Zhu Zhiyu said in surprise, "Isn't the virtuous brother Fei's son?"
Zhao Han explained: "In the first year of Chongzhen, there was a severe drought in northern Ji. My eldest brother was starved to death, my sister was sold for food, and my parents were murdered by bandits. I was only ten years old at the time, and with my six-year-old younger sister, Wandering among the disaster victims, what tragic events have you not seen? I am in the Fei family, I can be called a son or a slave. If I tick off my name on the household registration, I will immediately become a refugee.”
"That's actually the case." Zhu Zhiyu couldn't believe it.
Among the people Zhao Han contacts, Pang Chunlai is a staunch rebel, Xu Ying is a rebel who can be cultivated, and Liu Ziren is a rebel who can be absorbed.
This Zhu Zhiyu in front of him seems to be able to test it out.
Zhao Han asked, "Brother Chu Yu, have you ever tasted starvation?"
"I've tried it, but I couldn't get enough to eat every day for a while." Zhu Zhiyu replied.
"You can eat every day, why are you starving?" Zhao Han felt amused.
Zhu Zhiyu nodded and said, "That's right, I'm not starving."
The family life of the gentry family was different from what ordinary people imagined.
When the Zhu family was at its worst, there were only a few dozen servants left... Because of the famine, they couldn't pay their wages, and all the servants ran away.
How miserable!
Just like that, the relatives came to ridicule, pointing to their house and saying, "Look, this is the house of an honest official."
It's really a clean house.
Zhu Zhiyu's great-grandfather, posthumously gifted to Dr. Rong Lu after his death.Grandfather, posthumously presented to Dr. Guanglu after his death.Father, posthumously gifted to Dr. Guanglu, Shang Guozhu.
For three consecutive generations, they were first-rank officials, and they lived in the south of the Yangtze River. There were only a few dozen slaves.He couldn't pay his wages due to natural disasters, which caused the slaves to run away. Is this not an honest official?
The two went to the cafeteria together and chatted while eating.
As we chatted, Zhao Han felt more and more familiar with Zhu Zhiyu's name, but he really couldn't remember where he had heard it.
Zhejiang?
Zhao Han had a flash of inspiration and hurriedly asked, "Brother Zhu's house is in Yuyao?"
Zhu Zhiyu said, "Exactly."
"Brother Zhu's hometown, is there a river called Shun Shui?" Zhao Han asked.
"Have you been to Yuyao?" Zhu Zhiyu asked in surprise.
Zhao Han finally smiled happily: "I haven't been there, but I heard people talk about it."
Zhu Shunshui!
Chapter 068 [National Affairs]
"when!
"Dang Dang Dang Dang!"
in the bamboo forest.
Zhu Zhiyu was holding a long sword, and Fei Ruhe was holding a big sword.
Zhao Han cheered and cheered from the side.
"when!"
Fei Ruhe slashed out with one knife, directly knocking Zhu Zhiyu's long sword into the air.
Picking up the sword, Zhu Zhiyu felt extremely distressed. There were several gaps in the blade.
Fei Ruhe said: "I also want to take the martial arts exam, but I can't get into the book. I heard that the martial arts jinshi also needs to be knowledgeable."
Zhu Zhiyu said, "With the things that happened last year, when the martial arts exam was held, the essay was not so important, so you can rest assured to take the exam."
Fei Ruhe scratched his head: "What happened last year? Why don't I know."
Zhao Han, who reads the Tang newspaper regularly, explained: "Last year in the martial arts examination, there was a man who could wield a hundred-pound sword, and he was called a warrior in the world. But this person failed. The emperor was furious, and both the chief examiner and the supervisor were imprisoned." , A total of 22 people from the Ministry of War were dismissed."
"How else could such a thing happen?" Fei Ruhe was stunned.
Chongzhen's tactics are not lost to political experts, and many decisions are intentional.
The dismissal of 22 members of the Ministry of War just happens to be replaced by new ones.
Taking this opportunity, he announced the establishment of a martial arts palace examination, and the emperor personally invigilated the examination.In the future, all Wu Jinshi would belong to the disciples of the Emperor, and Chongzhen wanted to directly control the military attache.
Zhu Zhiyu glanced at Zhao Han and asked curiously, "How did Zhuochen know this news?"
"Look at the Tang News." Zhao Han smiled.
"It's a good idea," Zhu Zhiyu said, "I haven't read the Tang newspaper for a long time. I still listen to my brother about the martial arts."
Zhu Zhiyu's eldest brother, who really couldn't pass the exam, went to become a Wu Jinshi.
Zhu Zhiyu himself can also cut people with a sword.
In history, in the 11th year of Chongzhen, as a Gongsheng student, he ranked first in all talents in civil and military affairs, and was specially recruited by the Ministry of Rites.
Later, the small court of the Nanming Dynasty recruited him three times to be an official, but Zhu Zhiyu refused to accept it and did not want to be involved in the vortex of party disputes.
But he resolutely joined the Anti-Qing team, and with his old age, he went to Japan seven times and Annan six times to raise funds for the rebel army and foreign aid for Ming Dynasty.Repeated battles and repeated defeats, repeated defeats and repeated battles, and at the age of 61, he personally went into battle to kill the enemy.
In the end, he was defeated in exile in Japan and was almost treated by the national division.
His knowledge formed the "Mito Study" in Japan, and the "Mito Study" gave birth to the "Renovation School", which indirectly influenced the Meiji Restoration in Japan.
From a certain point of view, Zhu Zhiyu is the ideological mentor of Japan's Meiji Restoration!
……
Hearing that Wu Ju no longer values the written test, Fei Ruhe was quite moved and asked, "What kind of thing does the emperor value most now?"
"Tao strategy, riding and shooting." Zhu Zhiyu replied.
Fei Ruhe said in shock, "Sorry, I can't ride a horse, and I can't shoot arrows. I'll visit a famous teacher tomorrow, and I have to learn archery first!"
This guy ran away after speaking, only Zhao Han and Zhu Zhiyu were left in the bamboo forest.
The Datong Club has a loose structure, and Zhao Han has no other requirements. He only asks members to do three things—
First, accept the "theory of position", and if you don't accept it, get out.
Second, study the classics of science, and gather together on the first and fifteenth grades to share their reading experience.
Third, practice martial arts and art of war together every day.
The result was very bad. After only a few days, no one came to practice martial arts in the bamboo forest.
Only Zhao Han, Fei Ruhe, and Zhu Zhiyu had the habit of practicing martial arts for a long time, and they would feel disadvantaged if they didn't practice one day.
Zhao Han's spear has been replaced, and it was made by a blacksmith.
With a shot stuck on the ground, Zhao Han sat down cross-legged and said, "Brother Chu Yu, what do you think of the Northwest Bandit?"
Zhu Zhiyu put the sword back and said, "I have experienced the great disaster in Zhejiang. To the extent of changing my son to eat, the people have not rebelled. Just because I have survived that period of time, there is hope of living in the next year. It is conceivable. "The people of Shaanxi have stopped thinking about the coming year. If they don't, they will surely die in the coming year."
"Do you think thieves can be eliminated?" Zhao Han asked again.
Zhu Zhiyu shook his head and said: "The common people, if they are divided and listened to, they will be stupid, and if they are combined, they will be gods. If their hearts change, the river will collapse. If you want to pacify the chaos in the northwest, it is not a matter of military affairs, then you must let the people eat. what!"
Zhao Han asked again, "How do you think you can let the people eat?"
Zhu Zhiyu thought carefully and said:
"The first is to promote enlightenment and lift up the moral spirit. It is not the hypocritical morality, but the real morality."
"Second, rectify official governance, clean up corruption, and eradicate stupid governance. Today's officialdom has two major drawbacks. One is greed and the other is mediocrity. Inside and outside the court, there is greed and mediocrity, and there is no ability to govern. Money is all about it."
"Thirdly, it is essential to purify the source and advocate practical learning. Scholars in the world should not talk about empty words. Yangming's mind study has fallen into the Zen way, and Zhu Zi's philosophy has changed beyond recognition. I think that the way is for daily use, and it is the way that benefits the country and the people. Doing nothing to the people is an evil way! I have seen Zhu Zi in the past few days, and I have a great understanding, and many of the principles have been explained very clearly!"
Zhao Han asked again, "Which of the three can be done?"
Zhu Zhiyu said sadly: "None of them, Daming has accumulated a lot and it is difficult to return."
Zhao Han asked, "If the imperial court calls you to be an official, are you willing to serve as an official?"
"I don't want to."
Zhu Zhiyu said without hesitation: "If I become a county magistrate, I will be arrested in the first year. By the third year, the people will chant the virtues, and the Shangguan will praise me. After that, I will be guilty of a serious crime, and my net worth will not be guaranteed! Yanguan, I'm afraid I will go to prison in two or three months!"
"Hahahaha," Zhao Han couldn't help laughing, "You really have self-knowledge."
Zhu Zhiyu sighed and said, "Party disputes are endless, and there is no peace in the country. My eldest brother and a military attache have all been involved in party disputes and have been dismissed for several years. How can civil servants who want to do things can be alone?"
Zhao Han asked, "When the Holy King is in the court, isn't there no partisanship?"
"Ha ha."
Zhu Zhiyu was amused and didn't even want to explain more.
At this moment in the court hall, the six major factions are besieging Guangmingding... Ah bah, I got the wrong script.The first assistant, Zhou Tingru, is uniting with the Donglin Party to collectively besiege the second assistant, Wen Tiren.
Wen Ge said, "I want to hit a hundred!"
So in half a year, the Donglin Party will be turned on its back, the chief assistant Zhou Tingru is forced to resign, and Wen Tiren happily succeeds the chief assistant.
There is no partisanship, only political struggle.
In this situation, when you become an official in the dynasty, you either do nothing, join the political struggle, or perform your duties faithfully, and you are made to be a person inside and out.
Whoever does the right thing will die fast!
Those who are willing to do the right thing, regardless of their abilities, or their personal virtues, are well-known and good men.
Zhu Zhiyu suddenly came to his senses, what are I doing with a teenage boy talking about these major national events?
But Zhao Han's words and deeds always make people ignore his age.
Zhao Han continued to ask, "Since none of these three items can be reorganized, isn't Daming hopeless?"
Zhu Zhiyu was silent, he really saw no hope.
In his eyes, Daming had already had a terminal illness, and it was just a matter of how long he could live.
What Zhu Zhiyu is most proficient in is not Confucianism and psychology, nor pre-Qin ancient prose, nor poetry and poetry. He has been cultivating historiography for more than ten years... Taking history as a mirror, what the hell is Daming like?
Zhao Han said: "I think the root cause of Daming's disease is not the court, but the excessive land acquisition. The rich have no place to stand, and the poor have no place to stand. In such a situation, how can they collect taxes? The court has no money, so where is it? Can you do business? The less money you have, the more you have to collect money. The more money you have, the more chaotic the world will be.”
Zhu Zhiyu was quite surprised: "To have such an opinion is a child prodigy!"
Zhao Han asked, "Brother Chuyu, you said that if the land in the world can be nationalized, the court will distribute it to the common people. Will this lead to long-term stability?"
Zhu Zhiyu said with a smile: "The land-equalization system of the Sui and Tang Dynasties is the method you mentioned, men can allocate land when they are adults. It was really effective at the beginning, but it was no longer possible when Gaozong. Wu Zhou attacked the famous family, and it recovered a little, but when Xuanzong was completely destroyed. How do you think Jiedushi came from? The imperial court has no money to use troops, so the localities are self-determined. How can there be a long-term and stable farm system in the world?"
Zhao Han smiled, it is really not good to engage in Juntian, and the population will collapse.
After all, there is only so much land in the world.One thousand mu of land was previously divided among ten people, then a hundred people, and finally a thousand people.Can you share?
In the 21st century, China relies on industrialization to solve the problem of land saturation.
You can't just imitate it until the end of the Ming Dynasty.
Even red ideas cannot be copied mechanically.Because Marx taught us that the relations of production determine the superstructure, and it was against the law of social development to force red in the 17th century.
We should seek truth from facts and combine theory with national conditions.
Zhao Han finally asked, "Will I wait for the scholars and watch the society collapse?"
"Other than that, what else can you do?" Zhu Zhiyu said with a smile, "Being an official can't save Daming, could it be a rebellion to establish a new dynasty?"
Zhao Han did not speak.
Seeing that something was wrong with Zhao Han, Zhu Zhiyu suddenly said, "You want to do something about the Yellow Turban and the Green Forest?"
"I didn't say, Brother Chu Yu, don't scare me." Zhao Han immediately denied it.
This person is not easy to fool, his thinking is too clear.
And the slogan of Juntiandi is too radical. Unless there is chaos in the south of the Yangtze River, don't try to convince the children of this big clan!
Just when he was embarrassed, Fei Chun suddenly ran over: "Brother, the first issue of Goose Lake Xunkan is finally sold out. Guess who bought the most?"
"Which ones?" Zhao Han was too lazy to guess.
Fei Chun smiled and said: "The foreign merchants, they are very rich, and they have nothing to do when the goods are loaded. Many merchants also urged me to publish the second issue as soon as possible, and they are still waiting to read "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" Woolen cloth."
Zhao Han immediately said happily: "Increase the price and print more. Only [-] copies were printed in the first issue, and the price was still very low, so I lost more than ten taels of silver. In the second issue, [-] copies were printed, and the price was directly changed. times, or we will have to lose everything."
