Xia Xun's scolding had the effect of bringing order to the chaos.【】

He is the highest-ranking official in Liaodong, and his prestige here is unparalleled. It can be said that in addition to the emperor's personal statements, his words represent the ideological direction of Liaodong.

Of course, it can really play a role in the direction of consciousness, which also benefits from the unique conditions of Liaodong. If we change to another place, such as the original area with developed religions, even if the emperor can make the final decision, he will still attract a lot of criticism.

Even the emperor couldn't stand that mouth. Not to mention Xia Xun, who had already been drowned out by the overwhelming curses, which could not play any role in correcting his ideology.

But that's not the case in Liaodong. Just a few years ago, there was no official government here. There was no chief secretary, no state or county magistrate. All administrative affairs were managed by the Liaodong capital secretary. It was a military government government, and the education aspect was more

There is almost none, so there is no market for people here, let alone the power of scholars to form public opinion so powerful that even the emperor is afraid of it.

Although after several years of development, the Liaodong Sect has spread, their influence is still limited. Due to the influence of these people in Shilin, Wanchuo Shiyu has been perfunctory and has never dared to cast lots for fear of taking on a cool person.

Xia Xun didn't care about his reputation as an official. He had never regarded himself as a scholar, although since he became the Duke of the country, he had read a lot of ancient books to enrich himself.

He wanted the people of Liaodong to be literate, read and civilized, because this was the basis for the development of civilization and science and technology, but he did not want them to become naive sheep who thought they could coexist with wolves. However, he could scold so happily,

Having no scruples is really inconsistent with his always cautious and cautious character. He may disagree with these people's methods and even sneer at them in his heart, but he can definitely express them in gentler means and more euphemistic language.

But his unscrupulous attitude is very different from his previous behavior, so even Wanchuo Shiyu and Ding Yu, who have worked with him for three years and are well aware of his style of doing things, are a little surprised. In fact,

This was because Xia Xun had already made up his mind and acted without hesitation or scruples. However, the soldiers and people of Liaodong did not know this, so Xia Xun's violent reaction was even more shocking.

Although Xia Xun drove away all the idle people when he said these words, the content eventually spread. Xia Xun's fierce words spread in Shilin, Liaodong, and became a topic of heated debate among Shilin people. If it were in Jiangnan,

Xia Xun's move was bound to be criticized verbally and writtenly, but it was different outside the Pass. There was no cultural basis for criticizing him here. People who had lived in Liaodong for a long time and students from Liaodong were all firm supporters of Xia Xun's views.

Many people who had been brutally persecuted by the Tatars used bloody examples to teach those masters who came from the original country and still held many naive illusions. After learning these irrefutable truths, these scholars had no choice but to

Do not reflect on their own Dharma: Is what they have always insisted on right or wrong? Of course they dare not question the holy teachings of the Holy People, but in fact the Holy People in the Spring and Autumn Period were not as rigid as they were.

The many specific facts and practices of those sages are absolutely impossible to give them the reputation of being corrupt scholars. Although they may not be correct in everything, their attitude towards doing things is precisely pragmatic, and at the same time they are constantly making progress and self-improvement.

Therefore, it is not impossible to find evidence from the words and deeds of Shengnu people. Xia Xun once cited the examples of Confucius and Mozi at that time.

Therefore, after this great discussion in Liaodong Shilin, although there are still some people who do not change their ways, they are already very few. After this incident, many Liaodong Shilin people gradually changed their thinking. After this incident, they can be regarded as right

The culture and thought of Shilin in Liaodong underwent a great baptism, and the changes in the education sector meant that the future Shilin Group in Liaodong would be different from Jiangnan and develop independently.

The influence of Shilin in Liaodong will inevitably spread to the surrounding areas in the future. After the capital of the Ming Dynasty moved north, it was very close to Liaodong. This transformation of Shilin in Liaodong will undoubtedly have a huge impact on the future Ming Dynasty.

※※※※

Of course, it was impossible to hide this matter from Emperor Yongle. Zhu Di laughed loudly when he heard about it in Beichangjing.

If you think about it carefully, the emperors of the Ming Dynasty have been constantly fighting with the official groups since the founding of the country, Zhu Yuanzhang. This is true for Zhu Yuanzhang, and it is also true for Zhu Di. This is the case for every emperor. Taizu and Chengzu are two powerful people.

The emperor could still keep the situation under control, but as time went on, the power of the official group became larger and larger, and the emperor was forced to let the government control the situation.

Therefore, some emperors were cynical and specialized in doing things that the officials did not like. Some were so angry that they could not leave the palace and refused to go to court as a silent protest. Some tried their best to support the eunuch group to fight against the official group.

Unfortunately, every struggle ended in failure. The imperial examination must be used to select scholars. If the imperial examination is used, the official class must come from the scholar forest. The source of their troops is endless. Who can defeat them?

Confrontation is impossible to succeed, and reforming Shilin is the only hope. The emperor moved the capital to the north, with powerful enemies on his side. In such a realistic environment, officials must have a certain pragmatic attitude and cannot live blindly.

In the fictitious world of Datong in my mind, this transformation is limited. Most of the officials of each generation come from Jiangnan. Even those who are willing to transform will have a long process of understanding and progress.

In the original history, until the end of the Ming Dynasty, no official government was established in Liaodong, and the Shilin power that was different from that in Jiangnan was established. The emperor could not find any force that could be used from the Shilin, so he had to choose a desperate confrontation.

, in the end, both sides suffer and others gain. Now the emergence of Liaodong Shilin and the change of Liaodong Shilin's ideology are of great significance. The future emperor can hear different voices from within the official group, which will have a great influence on the future.

Produce immeasurable impact.

Xia Xun is not an infallible Shengchu man, and he did not expect this, but the development of history is like this. If you open up a new road, many new things will inevitably be derived from it. A good road is opened.

Yes, your purpose is just to make the transportation between the two cities more convenient, but along the way, taverns and inns will naturally appear. The villages and towns at the traffic arteries on both sides of the new road will naturally evolve into places where merchants gather. Over time,

It became the great city of Dafu.

Xia Xun's promotion of official government and religion in Liaodong was originally just because the unification of Liaodong's military government had proven to be a failure in history. They suppressed Liaodong for more than two hundred years, but the people there still remained the same.

He never returned to the Ming Dynasty and treated himself as a Ming Dynasty person. Once the power of the imperial court was weak and could not continue to suppress it with strong force, he took advantage of the situation and took advantage of the situation. Therefore, Xia Xun took another unconventional path and used assimilation and integration methods to promote his return to the Ming Dynasty.

But for this reason, Liaodong Shilin, whose ideology is different from Jiangnan Shilin, emerged because of the soil suitable for its independent growth. Now they are still very weak, but they will not be so in the future. In addition,

The emperors of the Ming Dynasty all fought with the Tongguan Jituan, which was actually a struggle with the Jiangnan Shilin Jitang. These unlucky emperors would never find any comrades in Shilin.

The emergence of Liaodong Shilin will bring a new wind to the entire Shilin and will be reused by the emperor in the future, creating a force to check and balance Jiangnan Shilin. Their rise is inevitable.

In fact, even without Xia Xun's move today, Liaodong Shilin's ideology would have changed sooner or later, making him different from Jiangnan. The special geographical environment, the composition of the multi-ethnic Cretaceous people, and the constant sense of worry are

What will inevitably lead to the progress and change of his ideological thinking is that he has already started his transformation and evolution in advance without having to pay a painful price and learn from it.

※※※※※※※

When Zhu Di heard the news that Xia Xun was scolding Shilin in Liaodong, he was listening to Song Li, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and Zhengyin Daoyan, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, reporting to him the matter of casting the largest bell in the Cretaceous era with great reasons.

Dao Yan was on the northern tour with Zhu Di this time. Zhu Di wanted to cast a large bell that would be unique in the Cretaceous world and hang it in the palace. Master Dao Yan and Song Li, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, gathered many skilled craftsmen and finally came up with the research after a period of repeated consultations.

According to the plan, the large bell to be cast is nearly seven meters high and weighs about 93,000 kilograms according to modern weight units. It is estimated that there must be hundreds of thousands of Buddhist scriptures in Yang regular script cast all over the inside and outside of the bell. After the bell is completed,

Every blow can be heard and heard within a hundred miles radius.

This is indeed an unprecedented large-scale project. It is a challenge to many smelting and casting processes. Many skilled craftsmen repeatedly calculated and evaluated before coming up with this plan. Zhu Di wanted to cast a unique bell. On the one hand, he wanted to show off the national prestige.

, promoting strength, on the other hand, is also to attract the hearts of monks all over the world.

A "Yongle Dadian" not only completed a grand religious event, but also alleviated the contradictions and conflicts between the feudal king's ascension to the throne and the scholars, and recruited many scholars to use it.

The Yongle Bell was one of his several measures to recruit monks from all over the world. He built a Taoist temple in Wudang Mountain to collect Taoism and teach people's hearts. Buddhism is more powerful, so how can he not pay attention to it?

People in the Yuan Dynasty believed in Buddhism. Since the Yuan Dynasty, Buddhism has developed even more than in the previous dynasties. By the Ming Dynasty, despite the wars at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, there were still hundreds of thousands of monks and nuns in the country, and countless followers of Buddhism. This is the Ming Dynasty.

It is a reality that the rulers of the dynasty cannot avoid and must take seriously. If it is done well, it can gain the submission and support of this religious body, but if it is not done well, it will definitely endanger the rule and stability of the emerging dynasty.

Therefore, both Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di's father and son adopted methods of praising, supporting, exploiting and controlling. Such as paying courtesy to famous monks, holding frequent Dharma meetings, extensively canonizing leaders of Tibetan Buddhist sects, and rebuilding or repairing temples.

The Yuanyuan published a large number of Buddhist scriptures, issued certificates and the number of monks through the quota system, and carried out examination and trial system to restrain the excessive growth of the number of monks, prevent the indiscriminate use of certificates, etc.

In the Western Regions, the tea and horse trade with the Western Regions was strengthened, and the leaders of the various sects of Western Tibetan Buddhism were given titles such as "Dharma King of Dachou", "Great Master of the State" and "Son of the Buddha of the Western Heaven" to enable them to transform and guide.

To jointly respect the Chu Kingdom. These methods were quite effective, and in the end of the Ming Dynasty, there was no trouble from the Western invaders.

Building this big bell now also has this meaning. At the same time, it is also a kind of intention to pray to heaven and thank God for protecting him in ascending to the throne in the land of his dragon. I have just finished listening to the report of Dao Yan and Song Li, and I am very happy.

At that time, he got the news that Xia Xun was scolding Shilin in Liaodong, and Zhu Di was even more happy.

Is Xia Xun's law not his law? As a pragmatic ruler and an emperor who had dealt with the nomads in northern Xinjiang for many years, Zhu Di had a deeper understanding of the nomads outside the Great Wall than Xia Xun, but he was an emperor, and some

He couldn't say anything, or it was inconvenient to say it, and he couldn't be as unscrupulous and unobtrusive as Xia Xun. Now that Xia Xun was scolding him vigorously, Zhu Di also let out a fierce breath.

Nowadays, the Ming Dynasty has actually been impeached by officials in the Ming Dynasty for various actions in Liaodong. They think that the imperial court's actions are inconsistent with the style of the imperial court. Some people use tactful means to accuse Xia Xun by beating him.

Some of the emperors bluntly denounced the emperor's actions as unjust.

The emperor was very depressed. Xia Xun's words slapped those short-sighted and good people hard!

Ji Gang saw the emperor laughing at the side, with a very happy expression, and quickly added: "Your Majesty, although these words of Duke Fu are a bit rough, they are true words every word, which is very pleasing to the people. Yichen, it is better to print them out every word."

Di Bao, published in the south of the Yangtze River, calls out those stupid and corrupt people."

"Well..." Zhu Di pondered for a while and thought that Xia Xun's speech could not be concealed. If it was allowed to be spread among the people, someone might tamper with it randomly. It would not be a bad thing if the imperial court clearly showed it to the world, so he said happily: "Okay.

Idea! Send it out!"

"Yes! I obey your order!"

Ji Gang quickly stepped forward and raised his hand, took the report from Zhu Di, held it carefully in his arms, and secretly rejoiced: "When this report is published, you Yang Xu will be scolded to death by Jiangnan scholars. When the time comes,

My reputation is even worse than mine."

Dao Yan clasped his hands to Zhu Di and said: "Your Majesty, such a big bell has never been seen before. In order to prevent unexpected events, I discussed with the Minister of Song Dynasty and decided to cast a trial bell first. If there are no mistakes, it will be officially cast. During this period, it is time to make the sutras.

Calligraphy, such a grand event is no small matter, I would like to ask the emperor to write a preface so that the calligraphy can be made as soon as possible."

After hearing this, Zhu Di pondered for a moment and said: "Well... naturally this sutra requires a preface, but... what should I write?"

Dao Yan smiled confidently and said: "This bell is cast and will not break down for thousands of years. It rings every day and can be heard throughout the city. This preface should be used to write down His Majesty's ambition!"

Zhu Di said happily: "It should be so!"

Dao Yan said: "Since the emperor's arrest and his ascension to the throne, the government and the public have been criticized and praised, just like Fang Xiaoru, Qi Tai, Huang Zicheng and other hypocritical and loyal people. There are always cries of injustice in response to them. The emperor should also write down the names of these people.

Let’s show the world our sins and set people’s minds straight!”

Zhu Di laughed loudly and said disdainfully: "Things from ancient times have long been extinguished. Nowadays, the records are either preserved or discarded, some are true or false, and there is no way to distinguish them. The wise and foolish, the fond of ugliness, success or failure, right and wrong, all will be wiped out, but it will be done too slowly.

It’s just a matter of time. Why bother to suffer a temporary reputation and reputation, and to suffer from the pain of the spirit? People like Fang, Huang, Qitai, who think they are loyal and virtuous, but are actually great traitors who bring harm to the country, are they worthy of my Yongle Bell!"

Dao Yan took a deep look at Ji Gang, who had just finished reading the memorial and was hiding his joy, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, good and evil, loyalty and traitor will eventually be revealed to the world, but if his guilt is made clear, wouldn't he wake up his ignorance earlier? Big Bell

Cry, punish evil and promote good!"

"Um……"

Zhu Di thought for a moment, nodded in agreement, stood up gently, and picked up the pen. Seeing Ji Gang, he quickly took a step forward, laid out the paper, held the inkstone, sprinkled water to grind the ink. After Zhu Di filed the case, he stroked his beard and thought for a long time, and picked up the pen.

Ink, he wrote freely: "...slandering the emperor and his ministers, slandering kindness, and causing countless crimes... The king's law punishes all those who are unfaithful and unfilial, cruel and rogue, and cannot be changed. So.

Eradicate the evil ones, cultivate the good ones, promote the Three Jewels, perpetuate Buddhism, and benefit everything."

Dao Yan stood on the side, saw the word "婂", put his palms together and said good deeds.

Zhu Di ran his pen and wrote again: "I only hope that the Tathagata will explain the Pope, I hope that I will have great compassion, I hope that the emperor will be prosperous forever, I hope that the country will be peaceful and the people are happy, I hope that the seasons will be plentiful, and that everyone will die
