Chapter 32 The flags move their hearts (5)

Chapter 32: The Banner is moved (5)

After a while, several adults finally digested Zhu Zhi's rebellious words, Lian Zining said: "Your Highness, in this way, the common people will be on an equal footing with the court. Is there any constitutional rule in the world? Your Highness's original intention is good, but it is easy to cause moral corruption and degradation of rule in the world.



Zhu Zhi shook his head and said, "What is the mentality of a human being? Mencius said that the nature of a human being is good, and Xunzi believed that the nature of a human being is evil. So is a human being evil or a good person? Later, there was another saying that seemed very reasonable. Those who are close to the red are red, and those who are close to the ink are black.

I personally think that none of these three can express human nature.

So what is human nature? Confucius said: Food, men and women, the great desires of human beings exist. The sage admitted that people have strong desire for food, which is called food, sex and nature.

I understand that people can get happiness from food and sex, which is what people call happiness. Since saints recognize this desire, it is natural for people to pursue this desire.

If anyone wants to deprive them of their right to pursue this kind of pursuit, it will violate human basic needs and the people may rebel.

Let’s look back at which dynasty has not promoted the righteousness of the morality of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the rule of the person has no effect in the face of the basic rights of the person.”

Lian Zining said: "Isn't this because of the collapse of etiquette and music? Under the rule of benevolence, you will naturally rebel. The king treats his ministers with virtue, and the ministers show his kings loyalty."

Zhu Zhi smiled and shook his head, saying, "Benevolence has never been given by the king, because there must be a foolish monarch. When the foolish monarch comes to power, the people cannot survive. Do they want to rebel again?

In the history of China, there will be turmoil for three or four hundred years, and there will be a hundred years of chaos. None of them can last forever. In the final analysis, this is the reason.

Benevolence cannot rely solely on people's qualities, but needs to be determined by systems, and what should be done and what should not be done. Just like the innovation of Liaodong's salt industry relies on the improvement of systems, people are unreliable.

I have promoted fair transactions in Liaodong, which restricted not only transactions between the people, but also the relationship between the government and the people, merchants and everyone is stipulated in the spirit of the law. This provision is based on the premise that human morality is unreliable.

People's great desires exist. Everyone has great desires, and no one can rely on them."

Zhu Zhi's words seemed to make sense, but there seemed to be something wrong, something wrong, especially this sentence is unreliable, which made everyone here think. Huang Kui blurted out: "Isn't that saying that it's not reliable either today?"

As soon as these words were said, the private room suddenly became silent. After Zhu Zhi said this, many people had such questions in their hearts, but who dared to say it? It’s just that Huang Kui has a straightforward personality and he just opened his mouth.

Lian Zining opened his mouth and was dazed. Jing Qing shivered and sprinkled the wine in his hand. After Huang Kui said that, beads of sweat from the soybeans had already oozed out of his forehead.

Looking at the embarrassing officials on the table, Zhu Zhi continued to smile and said, "It's okay today, it's not a foolish lord. I mean, I will inevitably be out of the foolish lord in the future. OK, I've said too much today and it's also a long way to go. Here I say, let's disperse this place, don't spread it.

Come on, everyone drink!”

After the topic was heavy, everyone's interest was not as high as before. After a few casual matches, they wanted to part with each other. Just as everyone was about to part, a few hearty laughter and rough voices suddenly came from next to them.

Lian Zining frowned, as if disturbed by the noise. Zhu Zhi asked, "What, Zining, why are you unhappy?"

Lian Zining said: "Your Highness, this will be disturbed by others. It is better to meet again next day." Everyone agreed. Zhu Zhi bowed his hand and returned the gift one by one. Everyone left one after another.

When Zhu Zhi and Yang Rongquyuan walked out of the private room, they met two people dressed up by officers. One of them looked at Zhu Zhi for a while, then hurriedly pulled the person next to him to kneel down: "Your Highness. I will be polite."

Zhu Zhi looked at it and found that he didn't know this person. He asked in confusion: "Please get up quickly, who is the general?"

The two stood up, and the tall man took the initiative to salute the man, "Your Highness doesn't know the general? The general is Zhao Zhongxiao, the commander of the left guard of Hu Ben.

In the 25th year of Hongwu, when he was quelling the Lan rebellion with His Highness, the last general was just the general flag of the vanguard of the government army, and followed General Zhuang De on the battlefield anyway. After quelling the rebellion, he was ceremonious to forgive the great sin of the rebels.

Your Highness and the Mo General have a grace of recreation, but the Mo General has a humble official position and has never been able to thank Your Highness in person."

Oh, it turned out to be an old friend. Zhu Zhi recalled that day, there were 100 people following Zhuang to save him. It turned out that Zhao Zhongxiao was included. Not only were these more than 100 people not convicted, but they were all promoted to the office because of Zhu Zhi's recommendation.

Later, the Governor's Office of the Five Army scattered these people to various garrisons. At that time, many people in chaos did not recognize Zhu Zhi.

Zhu Zhi smiled and said, "Ah, it turns out he is an old friend. Commander Zhao has been doing well in the past few years?"

Zhao Zhongxiao said: "Fortunately, I ask Your Highness for his blessing. He will get military achievements in the Western Qiang at the end of last year. He has just been promoted to the commander of the Hu Ben Left Guard this year."

Zhu Zhi said: "Do work hard and have a bright future."

Zhao Zhongxiao was about to thank him, but Zhu Zhi was already shouting loudly behind him: "You are late at Xiao Zhao, aren't you giving us face?"

Zhu Zhiying was startled by the shout and quickly turned around. He saw a general who was not tall but very capable but stood at the door of the private room next door. He must have been the loud voice.

Zhao Zhongxiao quickly stepped forward and took a military salute two steps and said, "General Ping, this is His Highness, the King of Liao, I just met a few greetings."

The capable military man quickly took two steps forward, knelt down and bowed: "Peace last general, I will pay homage to His Highness the King of Liao!"

Ping An! Could it be Ping An, the top general of the Central and Southern Army in Jingnan, "Ping Baoer"? Zhu Zhi helped him up and looked at him carefully. He saw Ping An's deep eyes and high noses felt like a foreigner, but as a general, he became a little more fierce.

Zhu Zhi still vaguely remembered that he had called other places, which read "Ping'an, Chu'an, the nickname Bao'er. His father Ding raised an army from Taizu and was appointed as the assistant commander of Jiningwei. He went from Kaiping to the Yuandu, and died in the battle.

An Chu is the adopted son of Jin Shang. He is brave and good at fighting and lifts hundreds of pounds."

This man was also quite brave in the future Jingzhan. An Jiu stationed in Zhending, repeatedly defeated Yan soldiers and killed several vicious generals. The Yan generals did not dare to inflate his attack. When he was captured, the army cheered and said, "My subordinates have been at peace from now on!" A double sentence was said.

Zhu Zhi said: "I heard Chu Zhi talk about his master's greatness long ago. I didn't expect to meet today."

Ping'an said, "Haha, boy Chu is good. I followed the right person and I will be promoted by Your Highness. Baoer thanked me." He bowed again.

Zhu Zhi said: "Chu Zhi has the style of a famous general, and his achievements are made by his own real swords and guns. Where can I do anything about it?"

When Zhao Zhongxiao saw the two standing at the door and talking nonstop, he hurriedly said, "Your Highness, today is a good day for General Ping to be promoted to the Assistant General of the Right Army. We former generals set up a table here to congratulate the general.

Zhongxiao dared to ask His Highness to have a drink with him."

Ping'an then woke up and said quickly: "Yes, yes, today, your highness came to have a drink too."

This person will be the Nanjun Gancheng in the future, so it is okay to get close to each other. Zhu Zhi said, "Oh, congratulations to the general for promotion, I will ask for a glass of water and wine." Seeing that Zhu Zhi agreed, Ping'an quickly opened the door curtain and let Zhu Zhi and others into the house.

I saw that there were already three or four generals dressed up in the room. Ping An introduced them one by one. It turned out that these people were all generals who followed Ping An to expedition to Qiang land in the west last year. Zhu Zhi thought to himself that Ping An seemed to be a general with no pretentiousness.

The military man was not as gentle as the scholars. Drinking was also a big bowl, but fortunately the wine level was not high in the Ming Dynasty. Although he had already drunk a table with the scholars just now, Zhu Zhi still kept drinking as soon as he came up.

After three big bowls, the eyes of several military men were straightened. Zhu Zhi drank one mouthful at a time, and his face did not change and his heart was not beating after drinking.

The military man is rough, no matter whether you are a prince or an ordinary person, you must be generous in your ability to drink. But they don’t know where they are. In their previous life, the Zhu Zhi brothers had two pounds of high-quality white wine.

Yang Rong knew that he had a huge amount of money, so he didn't pull him, but just carefully observed the expressions of the soldiers.

Everyone drank for a while, and Ping An said, "Your Highness doesn't mind us being vulgar. You are willing to sit down and drink a glass of water and wine to give Baoer a great face. I would like to thank you. Ping Baoer admires two kinds of people most in his life, one is who can drink and the other is who can fight.

Your Highness can drink and fight, and Baoer is so impressed that he is overwhelmed with admiration. “As he said that, he raised his head and then another bowl was raised, and Zhu Zhi quickly accompanied him.

Ping An wiped his beard and said, "Your Highness, Baoer knows your deeds. Ping Lan Ni. The Jurchens fight against the Tartars. My disciple occasionally wrote letters.

I have explained these battles in detail. No battle can be won beautifully. It is rare to have a daughter-in-law in front of each battle. Baoer admires it very much.

There were so many wars that made Baoer envious. Fortunately, the late emperor knew that Baoer was in a panic. Last year, he transferred the Wu Jiang to the west to fight a war, otherwise he would have to suffocate him to death.

Zhu Zhi laughed and said, "General Ping is brave, how can I catch up with it? If these battles were commanded by General Ping, I would probably win more beautifully."

Ping'an quickly waved his hand: "Your Highness is too much. Bao'er is a rough man, and charging into battle is the last general's strength, but when it comes to commanding thousands of troops and thousands of horses, he can't compare to Your Highness.

In particular, my disciple sent me a copy of the "March Minutes" from Liaodong. The last general asked the master to explain it to me from beginning to end. The last general found that this was really a good thing. According to the place where the troops were trained here, you could train an elite soldier in less than a year.

The disciple said that in recent years, all the 100,000 troops in Liaodong were trained according to this, and with so many battles, beloved, what a strong elite soldier they are. And the entire strategy is all the work of His Highness, and he really has the style of Yue Wumu in the past."

Zhu Zhi said: "It's not worth mentioning when showing off his skills."

Peace said: "Your Highness is a scholar after all, no more than our big brothers. Now my five thousand silver medal soldiers are trained according to the "March Minutes". Unexpectedly, after three months, they will behave like a decent person.

If you have the chance in the future, your highness will take the Liaodong Army and the last general's silver medal army to practice two moves according to the minutes. Haha..." Zhu Zhi was stunned and laughed with him.

This era was changed like this. The Five Thousand Silver Medal Army was originally the elite selected by Ping An from the soldiers who followed him in previous battles. The reason why Ping An had the strength and strong Yan Army challenged him during the Jingnan period was entirely due to this silver medal army.

Unexpectedly, the "March Minutes" formulated by himself in combination with modern military training rules is used by Ping An on the silver medal army, which will only make the Heian army more powerful. Will Jingnan change it?

This meal was only drunk on the branches of the moon. Zhu Zhi used the power of the wine, cow and tigers, and finally knocked down several military men one by one. He drank it so hard that his legs shook.

Ping An said with a thick tongue: "Dian, Your Highness, you read, and scholars say, why do you die for your confidant?
