Tang's dining table

Chapter 910 Confucius? Loophole?

Everyone in the Kong family thought that as long as they came to vote, the emperor would definitely welcome them.

They were wrong, Emperor Li Zhi never thought of having an affair with anyone from the beginning to the end.

Kong's vote was just to kill a few fewer people. Kong's resistance was a simpler matter for the emperor, as long as Xue Rengui's army stationed nearby in Qufu swept past, there would be no trouble at all.

Li Zhi knew very well that what he was going to do now, such as rebalancing the land, was intolerable to the wealthy people, so why didn't he do it, and once he did it, he had to do it thoroughly without leaving any hidden dangers. Otherwise, leaving a trace of root seedlings will cause endless troubles.

Today's Great Tang is stronger than any previous dynasties. The sixteen guards of the Great Tang are loyal to the royal family. They are equipped with the most luxurious and sharp weapons in the world and enjoy rich rewards that have never been seen in previous dynasties. Any one of the six guards has the ability to look down on the world, and has the strength to destroy cities and countries.

With such a powerful military force abandoned, Li Zhi always felt sorry for his frugality over the years.

Over the years, Li Zhi has indeed not lived a luxurious life. The construction of Luoyang City has long been over, and the palace built in the early years is somewhat dilapidated, and Li Zhi only continued to use it after repairing it.

As for the Daming Palace, Xingqing Palace, and Qujiang Palace being built in Chang'an, they were not intended to be built for Li Zhi, but Yunchu and other Chang'an officials took the initiative to build more funds in Chang'an City.

Over the years, these three huge construction sites have supported countless people in Chang'an, and also made great progress in the construction-related shops in Chang'an City.

Now, when it comes to building palaces, city defenses, and even residential buildings, the first choice of Guanzhong people is Chang'an's construction team and Chang'an's material supply channels.

Chang'an provided the imperial court with countless funds and materials. These funds and materials were used by Li Zhi to subsidize the people of the Ten Dao of Tang Dynasty.

Let the people pay less taxes for one year, and the people can have food all year round. If you pay less taxes for two years, the people will have a little savings in their families. Eat a bowl of glutinous rice noodles from Chang'an.

The army is unparalleled, and the people in other places gradually have signs of living and working in peace and contentment. This is the basis for Li Zhi's determination to deal with the division of Shandong and Hebei, which Li Tang's ancestors were powerless and unable to deal with.

Now, Kong Zhuo was kicked by Li Hong, his teeth fell all over the ground, and he passed out.

This is a very good scene in Li Zhi's eyes. If Kong doesn't care, then even if there is a real reason to let their family go, after all, they have endured the humiliation to this point, and if they don't give a way out, Li Zhi I feel too much.

When Li Zhi raised the wine glass, Wu Mei and Li Hong, who had just finished the beating, also raised the wine glass, and the Kong clan members on both sides first looked at each other, and after Kong Zhixuan held the wine glass with trembling hands, they also raised their wine glasses After Li Zhiwu flattered Li Hong and the three of them drank the wine in the glass, they also poured the wine into their mouths.

The taste of this glass of wine is different, like Coptis chinensis is added in it, not only bitter, but also spicy.

Li Zhi put down his wine glass and stretched his neck to look at Kong Zhuo who was still unconscious and said in surprise: "Ah, Mr. Gong Liang is too strong to drink, come and help Mr. Gong Liang go to the side hall to rest.

Gentlemen, it's rare for a group of sages to gather today, let's continue singing and dancing, then drink...don't go home if you don't get drunk. "

As soon as the voice fell, the musicians immediately played bright and lively tunes, and the maids who were dancing the pear blossom dance in a serious manner just now showed a hint of coquettishness on their faces, their long sleeves fluttered, their waists and hips began to twist, and their long legs occasionally swayed from low to low. Flying out from under the hanging skirt, the flesh is so bright...

"Guo Taifu, Kong Zhuo said in front of His Majesty that the "Zuo Zhuan" you described was just picking up people's tooth wisdom, and they picked up their Kong family's tooth wisdom. They also said that you didn't make it clear about this tooth wisdom... "

After saying this, a talkative eunuch ran away with Fuchen in his arms.

Guo Yu, who was reading, put down the book in his hand, left the tent and glanced at the brightly lit place. After thinking for a while, he returned to the tent. While writing his reading notes, he recorded today's events in order to plan for a long-term plan.

He wrote at the end: "The noble family of the Kong family wants to become the teachers of the kings, so as to change the hearts of the royal family and solve the current predicament of the Kong family. The vast and thousand-year-old family is just a drop in the ocean for more than ten years... But the emperor The emperor is extremely powerful, and he has a lot of resentment towards the wealthy Shandong family, so if he inherits the wind and is humiliated today, he will definitely not allow the Kong family to get what they want."

As we grow older, it is difficult to sleep peacefully at night. Waking up three or two times at night will make a person of Xu Jingzong's age completely sleepless. After getting up and washing his hands once, Xu Jingzong only feels thirsty, so he took a glass of warm water from the handmaid and drank it. , and said to the maidservant: "Is the prince back?"

The maidservant said softly: "I heard that I came back, and I was still very angry. I was going to see the master, but when I heard that the master had fallen asleep, I went back."

Xu Jingzong said: "Why is the prince angry?"

The maidservant looked at Xu Jingzong carefully and said: "My maidservant heard, heard..."

Xu Jingzong looked at the maid gently and said, "It's okay if you tell me."

The maidservant said in a low voice: "His Majesty the Crown Prince attended the banquet where the elders of the Kong family were entertained. During the banquet, the elders of the Kong family asked the prince how to study. The prince said: "Learn "Zuo Zhuan" from Guo Gongyu. Kong said that it is just picking up the wisdom of others..."

Xu Jingzong laughed lightly and said, "What do you say about this old man?"

The maidservant looked at Xu Jingzong's face again, and said in a low voice, "Huming in Huangqiu."

Xu Jingzong said without changing his expression after hearing this: "Xuanyuan Tomb was originally the center of heaven and earth, and Xuanyuan bones were hidden inside, but it was stolen by the old man, a wild fox. Kong is saying that the old man taught the prince, using Xuanyuan Dao. But it is the wild fox who talks wildly and dreamily...not to mention deviate from the scriptures, but also with ulterior motives...The old man has been studying sages and sages for more than 70 years since his hair was tied up. Unexpectedly, he finally learned wild fox Zen.

Well, the old man knows, and there will be rewards in the future. "

Seeing that Xu Jingzong was angry, the maidservant clenched her fists and said, "I heard that the crown prince kicked off the teeth of that Elder Kong who mocked the master on the spot..."

When Xu Jingzong heard the words, a gleam of warmth appeared on his originally gloomy old face, he patted the maidservant's ass with a smile, then returned to the bed, and said to the maidservant: "It's cold, let's sleep together."

The maid immediately undressed and climbed up...

When Yunchu came back from his tour of the camp, he just took off his armor when he saw Wenrou, and Di Renjie came hand in hand. He skillfully lit the small stove, sat on the water, and said to Yunchu with a gentle smile, "The prince is showing great power tonight. The persecuting Kong family I have to bow my head."

Di Renjie said: "I heard that for you, he even kicked out all the teeth in Kong Zhuo's mouth."

Regarding this news, Yun Chu, who was patrolling the camp, naturally knew better than them, so he put down the horizontal knife in his hand and said, "It's not for me, it's for Xu Jingzong, Guo Yu, Shangguanyi and other grand masters."

Gentle glanced at the horizontal knife that Yunchu deliberately slapped on the table, spread her hands and said, "Today we won't talk about Mother Chun."

Di Renjie said: "Let's talk about business, talk about business, did Kong Gongliang send this person to the door by himself, or is he really mean-spirited?"

Rourou looked at Yunchu and said, "Naturally, it was delivered to the door. You and I both know that Yuchu often receives some inexplicable gifts."

Yun Chu took a look and said softly: "Because the mouth is too damaged, so it makes sense to be beaten."

Di Renjie said to Rou Rou: "Stop talking about Ah Chun, at least don't laugh at her."

Gently sighed and said: "It's a pity, if Ah Chun entered the Yun family, I can talk about it until I am at least eighty years old. Now, every time I say it, it will be one less time.

I don't think the members of the Kong family are that stupid, so there is a high possibility of probing. Showing off a worthless Kong Gong to test your majesty's bottom line, I think it is a normal operation of the rich. "

Di Renjie nodded and said: "Mr. Kong is indeed great in teaching his disciples. It is impossible to admit it."

Yun Chu said: "Chang'an lacks good teachers. Kong's move to Chang'an just solves the dilemma of Chang'an not having good teachers. However, I think it is best to use a unified textbook when teaching students."

Gentlely shook her head and said: "This is impossible, Kong is famous for teaching students according to their aptitude."

Yun Chu said: "The purpose of the students entering the school is to succeed in one day and honor their ancestors. As long as the imperial examination is related to the content of the textbook, they are not allowed to have any other means in it."

Di Renjie said: "The disciples taught by the Kong family in the past mostly know how to be officials, but they seldom know how to do things. This point really needs to be discarded."

Gentlely said: "I wonder if His Majesty has the heart to reform the Kong family?"

Yun Chu smiled and said: "Your Majesty may not have such thoughts at this time, but as long as you can restrain the affairs of Kong's disciples, Your Majesty will definitely agree, no matter what the consequences of doing so are, it is better than the current Kong's. "

The three discussed for a while, and the water on the stove boiled, and they began to cook pots of tea.

When new problems arise in Chang'an, new countermeasures are naturally needed. This system of one case, one discussion has been formed a long time ago.

Although Kong belongs to the leader in terms of learning, but as long as Kong enters the cage of Chang'an, the three of Yunchu have the confidence to believe that they will be assimilated by Chang'an sooner or later.

This is determined by the characteristics of the Kong family's culture, and it does not depend on the will of the Kong family members.

Because, the characteristic of Confucian clan studies is to be inclusive and to practice the law of the mean!

That is to say, there are only a few rough general directions for the people of the Confucianism to choose from. Among them, the most important ones are the correct rules of behavior they formulated for this society-benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, faith, forgiveness, loyalty, Filial piety, brotherhood.

These nine regulations basically distinguish humans from beasts, which is an excellent thing. However, the countless explanations under these nine regulations are so chaotic that people don't know what to do.

It is these nine characters that gave birth to a vast number of Confucian unique learning. Since then, all Confucian unique learning has only been continuously refined within the framework of these nine characters, coupled with the partiality of human nature, leading to people's interpretation Each has its own limitations and class characteristics.

This gave the royal family a loophole to take advantage of. As long as there is a theory that suits them in Confucianism, they will actively use it and promote it. In the end, they will turn a good Confucius into a loophole!
