The Head of the Ming Dynasty Spared His Life

Shen Shixing couldn't show his anger and anger, and said calmly: "From the beginning, I used the convenience of the Minister of Rites to manage the imperial examination files, and checked all the official history books and daily life notes since the founding of the country. I have never seen an inch board. Don't go into the sea!"

One stone caused a thousand waves!

Wang Bengu was dumbfounded.

The officials were dumbfounded.

Even Emperor Jiajing suddenly opened his eyes wide, straightened up, grabbed the dragon chair tightly, stared straight at Shen Shixing, and said coldly, "What did you say? Say it again!"

Shen Shixing said loudly: "My minister said, I, the emperors of all dynasties of the Ming Dynasty, did not say that there is no such thing as not being allowed to go to the sea!"

Wang Bengu was stunned.

This ancestral motto is the biggest weapon against Kaihai.

But the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Shen Shixing 1.1 actually said that there is no such ancestral precept at all. How can this make Wang Bengu feel embarrassed?

In Yan Song's eyes, there was a flash of brilliance.

As expected, it was Shen Shixing, who entrusted him with this difficult problem and asked him to prepare the shells for the Great Court Conference, and he was really ready!

As long as the ancestral motto "No inch boards are allowed to go into the sea" is proved to be false, it will be a foregone conclusion to open the sea without any harm to Daming!

Wang Bengu was stunned, but as a direct minister and mainstay of Qingliu, he certainly has a good theoretical level, and it is impossible to be easily convinced by Shen Shixing's words.

"Impossible!" Wang Bengu had been prepared to take out a book from behind.

"Ming Taizu Records"!

. .

Chapter 432 Zhu Yuanzhang who pitted Daming [6]

Wang Bengu pointed at Shen Shixing and shouted: "If I prove that you deliberately distorted the hadith, I will impeach you immediately! Those who slander the Holy Lord and distort the hadith will be dismissed immediately and exiled for three thousand miles!"

Shen Shixing was happy and fearless, and said lightly: "Just say it's okay!"

Wang Bengu laughed loudly, opened the "Records of Ming Taizu", and read aloud: "Volume 49 of "Records of Ming Taizu". Ordered to abolish the shipping departments of Quanzhou, Fujian, Mingzhou, Zhejiang, and Guangzhou, Guangdong. In the 14th year of Hongwu, Taizu "decreed that the Japanese pirates still did not make a small footprint, and ordered the prohibition of private communication with overseas countries by coastal people." In the 23rd year of Hongwu, Taizu The "Order of Prohibition of Traffic in Outer Domains" was issued again. In the 27th year of Hongwu, in order to completely ban overseas trade, Taizu also prohibited the private use and trading of imported fanxiang and fanhuo, etc. In the 30th year of Hongwu, another order was issued to prohibit the Chinese from going to sea to communicate with Fanhuo. .”

Wang Bengu really came prepared, and he winked at his cousin Wang Bensheng who was almost driven away by Yan Song 15 times because of his opposition to Kai Hai.

Wang Bensheng waited for this day, and immediately came up, holding the law of the Ming Dynasty, shaking his head and saying: "According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, if a traitor is as powerful as the army and the people, and builds an illegal large ship with three masts or more, he will take the prohibited goods to the sea and go to Fanguo Buying and selling, sneaking into pirates, conspiring to gather together, and robbing good people as a guide, the principal offender will be executed according to his own law, and he will still show his head to the public, and the whole family will send frontier guards to the army. Those who build the aforementioned sea ships and sell them to the barbarians for profit , Comparing to those who should be banned from launching their weapons into the sea, and thus betray the law of the army, the leader will be executed, and the followers will be exiled to the army!"

Listening to Wang Bengu and Wang Bensheng reading "Ming Taizu Veritable Records" and "Da Ming Law", Yan Song hated Zhu Yuanzhang so much that his teeth itch.

This old Zhu Jinhai is really a big failure in life.

If you want to talk about Zhu Chongba, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, that is really a life of cheating, so awesome that I can't explain it.He used to be a cowherd, a beggar, and a monk. He started a professional rebellion at the age of 24, and became the emperor at the age of 41. He has been a full 31 years!

This life is simply a template for a time traveler.

But the only black history in life is the order to ban the sea, which made China miss the era of great navigation.

Right now, Yan Song must overcome Zhu Chongba's ancestral precepts if he wants to let China rise in this great age of sailing!

Even Yan Song couldn't think of how to solve this unsolvable problem for a while.

Listening to "Records of Emperor Taizu of Ming Dynasty" and "Law of Great Ming Dynasty", Jiajing, who was a little bit moved, also sighed.

The ancestral system cannot be disobeyed.

Wang Bengu laughed loudly: "Shen Shixing, you dare to quibble that it is a false ancestor's precept that the inch board is not allowed to go into the sea?"

"That's right!" Shen Shixing was happy and unafraid, and said with a faint smile: "Dare to ask Wang Yushi, you have read so much just now, which one did the Taizu say that inch boards are not allowed to go into the sea?"

"This?" Wang Bengu was choked, coughed and said, "You just need to understand Taizu's general idea. It is a popular saying that one-inch boards are not allowed to go into the sea. But Taizu's determination to ban the sea is certain. "

"Wrong! Big mistake!" Shen Shixing said firmly: "The "Records of Emperor Taizu of Ming Dynasty" you read just now, not only did not deny me, but also confirmed my statement. That is Taizu, who did not forbid opening the sea! "

Even Yan Song was a little curious. How does he, a superior subordinate, plan to quibble and take advantage of the loopholes in "Records of Ming Taizu" and "Laws of the Great Ming Dynasty"?

Just now "Ming Taizu Shilu" has made it clear enough, is there any room for interpretation?

Wang Bengu was so angry that he was going crazy: "Shen Shixing, tell me, what's the problem?"

"The first time Taizu ordered the ban on the sea, the correct expression is "Order the prohibition of private communication with overseas countries by people near the sea"!" Shen Shixing said calmly: "The key to this is a private communication! Let me ask you, what? Is it an affair?"

"Fornication, uh..." Wang Bengu was dumbfounded, "Exactly."

"According to my Ming law, fornication means acting without the permission of the imperial court!" Shen Shixing is worthy of being a minister of the Ministry of Rites, and he didn't give Wang Bengu time to react. There is only one exception in the case of private communication with overseas countries!"

His eyes were piercing: "That's the imperial court! Taizu was wise and mighty, and did not forbid the Ming court officials from conducting trade with overseas countries! In the Ming law, this point has been better evidenced!"

He said indifferently: "The law of the Ming Dynasty says that if a treacherous tyrant wants to reach the level of the army and the people, build illegal large ships with three masts or more without authorization, bring prohibited goods into the sea, go to Fanguo to trade, sneak in pirates, conspire to form alliances, and do things for others." Guides who plunder good people will be punished. But it has never been stipulated that the imperial court will officially form a fleet and go to sea, and they must be punished, right?"

Wang Bengu and Wang Bensheng were dumbfounded.

Nima can do this too?

In the law of the Ming Dynasty, how could it be stipulated that the imperial court would punish 693 if it violated the forbidden sea?Does the law of the Ming Dynasty dare to stipulate that the emperor be beheaded and exiled?

Shen Shixing talked eloquently: "Among them, the biggest evidence is Emperor Chengzu Yongle. As the prince of Taizu Emperor, Yongle Emperor dared to send three treasure eunuchs to build the Daming Ship seven times in a row. The team went to the West, and it lasted for decades! Dare I ask Mr. Wang, do you dare to say that Emperor Yongle deliberately violated the ancestral system?"

This shot was very deadly, and hit Wang Bengu's weak point in one breath!

Wang Bengu and Wang Bensheng were knocked to the ground by a cannonball. He didn't know how to refute Shen Shixing.

Emperor Jiajing smiled.

The civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty suddenly became enlightened one by one.
