Chapter 457: The Contemporaneous Disadvantages
Chapter 457: Learn from the public opinion and the emperor intercepted the death of the current situation.
"Long live my emperor, long live my life; the queen mother is lucky!" Just like Yingzong's young court to listen to the government, Empress Dowager Sun also sat next to the dragon throne in the court, facing the hall listening to the kneeling of civil and military officials, and at the same time there was an unspeakable thing on the throat. The two brothers Qi Zhen and Qi Yu, born to one father and two mothers, actually turned against each other! Empress Dowager Sun asked Yingzong to see his sick brother, Qi Yu, who did not go to see him after Yingzong left Renshou Palace, but went to deal with other matters of the dynasty. He Qingqing sent someone to secretly investigate and talk. Xiao Si occasionally came to see Empress Dowager Sun before the Tumu Fort Incident. After Zhou Xiaoniu was arranged by Empress Dowager Sun in the entertainment venue, Xiao Si did not stop, but only stopped after the Tumu Fort Incident. Not long after Emperor Jing became the emperor, Zhou Xiaoniu passed Wu
The relationship between the Xian Concubine was transferred to Emperor Jing as a personal bodyguard. Emperor Jing promoted Xiao Si to a new position, and Huang Xiaoya reported to Empress Dowager Sun through the situation that Cherry knew. One day after Emperor Yingzong seized the sect, Xiao Si met Shi Heng, a Hou of Wuqing. When Shi Heng was the bodyguard supervisor for Empress Dowager Sun, he had always had a good relationship with Xiao Si. Although Xiao Si was the bodyguard of Emperor Jing, he also followed the matter of taking the sect. Shi Heng and Yingzong said that Emperor Yingzong did not deal with Xiao Si. Yingzong asked Xiao Si to remain by Emperor Jing. That day, Xiao Si came to the court to tell Empress Dowager Sun that Emperor Jing died and Yingzong wanted someone to die. Empress Dowager Sun asked Xiao Si to tell Yingzong that the dynasty should not implement the human death system. After hearing the words of Empress Dowager Sun, Yingzong invited his mother, the Queen Mother, to discuss matters and make a decision to intercept the death.
"All the ministers are calm!" said Yingzong.
"Thank you, Empress Dowager!" the ministers stood up as they said.
"Your Majesty begin?" After Emperor Yingzong's restoration, he rewarded those who supported him according to their merits. Cao Jixiang was appointed as the governor of the three camps of the governor of the Silis, and had great military and political power in the capital. Shi Heng was appointed Duke Zhongguo, and Xu Youzhen was named Wugong Bo. Cao Jixiang naturally stood by the dragon throne and asked Yingzong in a low voice.
"Ah!" Yingzong looked at his mother's Empress Dowager Sun to ask for his mother's wishes. Empress Dowager Sun didn't know how Yingzong arranged it, so there was no need to ask the details, and he made a reply to Yingzong to show his consent.
"Start!" Yingzong said to Cao Jixiang.
"Learn from all opinions, the emperor will intercept him!" Cao Jixiang said loudly.
"Yes! Idiom interpretation: widely adopt advice from all ministers, source: "The Three Kingdoms? The Wu Zhi? The Empress Dowager's Biography": 'I heard that I should listen to the people, and my laws and regulations are in line with the times. I am really good at choosing the time with generals, ministers, and learn from the public opinion to follow the people's expectations.' I want to intercept people, and ask people to work hard to discuss the proposal together!" Yingzong said as he answered Cao Jixiang.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say!" After Emperor Yingzong restored the cabinet, he changed his cabinet members. Xu Youzhen was named Wu Gong Bo and promoted to the position of chief minister of the cabinet. He was the first to stand out and speak.
"Please speak with Xu Aiqing!" Yingzong said in the hall.
"Man sacrifice is to be buried with burial, also known as burial, which refers to the burial of the tombs of the dead with objects, livestock and even living people. It is used to ensure the blessing of the dead and soul. The blessing of the dead is the blessing of the dead and the soul. The blessing of the dead is the blessing of the dead and the underworld. "Book of Wei? Zhuan of Cui Ting": "The former officials in Guangzhou were sad when they heard the evil question. They cast an eight-foot bronze statue in Guangyin Temple in the east of the city. They set up eight prefectures to pursue the blessing of the darkness. Your Majesty wants to intercept people and die, but they don't want their descendants to enjoy the blessing of the darkness?" Xu Shi asked. Xu was really different from ordinary people, just saying unexpected words from others, and they mentioned the incident of moving south after the Tumu Fort Incident. Empress Dowager Sun was very disgusted when he listened, but this was a court where the ministers were in the court, and he didn't want to say anything for a moment.
"Ah! I heard a story: ("Book of Rites? Tan Gong", hereinafter referred to as "Notes")." Yingzong did not reply to Xu Youzhen's words, and said with a shout that he heard it clearly. He wanted to tell the story he heard, and looked at Empress Dowager Sun.
"You said!" Empress Dowager Sun knew the notes
Some content in 》 was spoken in a low voice to Yingzong.
"The Notes" records... Yingzong said: Chen Ziche died in Weiguo. His wife and the housekeeper planned to be buried with a living person. After the two agreed, Chen Zikang came and they said to Chen Zikang: "Mr. Ziche died of illness. The patient went underground and no one was serving him. We plan to be buried with a human being." Chen Zikang said: "Using people to be buried with a human being is not in line with the etiquette. Although he is sick and needs someone to serve him, who should be served him. Who can be more appropriate than his wife and housekeeper? If you don't need someone to be buried with a human being, I want to use you two as the ones who are the ones who are buried with a human being. Chen Ziche's wife and housekeeper were shocked and never mentioned the burial of a human being. After Yingzong finished speaking, he looked at his mother's Queen Mother Sun. Empress Dowager Sun knew this story and felt very comfortable, so he nodded and expressed his approval.
"Who has a memorial?" After hearing this story, Xu Youzhen and the court officials showed a quiet and elegant appearance in the hall. Empress Dowager Sun had checked the book "Notes", which was a compilation of academic papers of Confucianism in pre-Qin, not written by one person at a time. It contains the works of various schools and schools of Xun from Confucius to Mencius and Xun, all of which were recorded by Confucius's seventy sons, and the content was quite complicated. Most of the "Notes" were written in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. The basic content reflected in the article is mostly from the ancient system of the pre-Qin period, which records some of the remarks of Confucius or his disciples' expression of the true meaning of Confucius' thoughts. Even if some chapters were written by Confucian scholars in the Qin and Han Dynasties, the basic content is also a review of the ancient system of the pre-Qin period. The ancient system contained in the book
The content of the ritual system and the social life situation at that time, from the strategy of governing the country to the family rules, are discussed in the Book of Rites. These chapters reflect the principles and spirit of the patriarchal system everywhere. The human sacrifice system no longer conforms to the ritual system of Confucian religion in the pre-Qin era. Xu Youzhenjing said such a ridiculous thing to consider the happiness of the royal family after death, and also a flattery for Yingzong. Where is the happiness of a person after death? Xu Youzhen said this for personal purposes rather than compassion for the burial person who was killed for no reason. As a member of the royal family, Empress Dowager Sun was not only not grateful but was very disgusted. At this time, Cao Jixiang said loudly in the hall.
"Your Majesty! I have something to say." Xu Bin stood up and said.
"Please speak with Aiqing Xu!" said Yingzong.
"Man sacrifices and burials with living people is a cruel system, which has been inherited in ancient China. After the Qin and Han dynasties, it was restrained and replaced by wooden figurines and pottery figurines, which had no good impact on the development of society. After those years, Taizu of the Ming Dynasty practiced human sacrifices, what benefits did it bring? No! Mingfu is a dead man, and he is happy in the underworld. I have never seen it! Your Majesty advocates the system of interception and death. The examples are very good. People are the same and do not want to die innocently. Your Majesty is like interception and death.
Sacrifice, he will be famous in history and will be remembered forever!" Xu Bin looked at Xu Youzhen a little excitedly, and said with no concern. He said excitedly that during the Xuande period, Empress Dowager Sun heard Emperor Xuande say that Xu Bin had also come into contact with this person during the Zhengtong period. Xu Bin (1385-1461), the name Daozhong and named Yanghao, was from Diaotai Village, Miaochengli, Mingfeng County (now Xukou Village, Songlou Town, Feng County, Jiangsu Province). Xu Bin "was born unique, and when he was studying, he looked at him with ten things, and people at that time were called child prodigy
", when he was young, due to the famine in Feng County, he moved with his father to Ningyang County, Yanzhou Prefecture, Shandong Province at the age of fourteen. He was a minister of the Ming Dynasty, a famous scholar, a representative writer of the Guange style, and was known as "Mr. Dong Lu". He was a young master of literature. He passed the imperial examination in the ninth year of Yongle (1411), and became a Jinshi in the thirteenth year of Yongle (1415). He was promoted to the Hanlin Academy. In 1425, he was promoted to the review and promoted to the editor of Ming Renzong Zhu Gaochi,
The record of two generations of emperors of Zhu Zhanji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty. The 12th Year of Zhengtong (1447) He presided over the Fujian Provincial Examination, known as "a man with a second rank", and was in charge of rituals and music sacrifices. In the 14th Year of Zhengtong (1449), Bin's father passed away and took leave and returned home to mourn. At that time, the tribute city was in chaos, and those who were familiar with languages in the court and the country were the most familiar with languages in various countries. Grand Secretary Cao Ding (the prime minister of the Ming Dynasty) was
He was able to recommend the admiral of the Four Barbarians. In order to fulfill his filial piety, Bin wanted to guard the Lu for three years. Yingzong asked Empress Dowager Sun to refuse, and Empress Dowager Sun made a move to Yingzong: he issued an edict to order Bin to go to Beijing to recuperate his post, and sent envoys to pay tribute to Bin's father and instructed him to invite Xu's father in Fengxian to invite Xu's father in front of the imperial city. Bin thanked the emperor's grace in August, and was promoted to Shaoqing of Dali Temple in September. In October, he was transferred to Shaoqing of Taichang Temple and Hanlin Guard, and was promoted to the Sijie Hall. He was soon promoted to Zhengqing of Taichang Temple. Empress Dowager Sun met this person since then. Yingzong returned to the north and the imperial court discussed with the ministers to welcome him. Xu
Bin resolutely asked to go, "The Lord was humiliated and died, and he was divided." When he arrived at Xuanfu and met Yingzong, he wrote the "Sin of Sin" for him and the sacrifice of the fallen soldiers in the Tumu Fort Battle, which was appreciated by Yingzong. In the late Jingtai, Shi Heng and others planned the change of siege and sought Xu Bin's help. Xu Bin recommended Xu Youzhen to Shi Heng, and Xu Youzhen also happened to find Shi Heng again, and many people beat him up. After Yingzong restored the throne, he was promoted to Xu Bin to the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, and also a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and entered the Zhiwenyuan Pavilion. He and Xu Youzhen were in charge of state affairs together.
"Your Majesty! My little minister, Hou Qi, have something to say." Hou Qi stood up, looked at Empress Dowager Sun, and said loudly.
"Wang Aiqing, please speak!" said Yingzong.
"I support you and criticize the current problems! Idiom explanation: Bian: The stone needle used to treat diseases and acupoints in ancient times, which later refers to gold needles for treatment and diamond bleeding. Like treating diseases, it points out the problems of the times and society, and it is both needle and criticized, seeking to correct and be good. Example: Wang Gang's article boldly criticizes the current problems, which are deafening and shocking, and has been praised by people. The system of human sacrifice is a great disadvantage, and it should have been intercepted or abolished!" Hou Qi said loudly.
"I'm going to discuss it!" said Duo Chen.
"Your Majesty is a great thing to stop the death of his father. He will be supported by all the people and will be remembered forever." A minister said loudly.
"Your Majesty! I have something to say!" Xue Xuan stood up and said to the emperor: Xue Xuan (1389-1464) Ming Dynasty thinker, famous Neo-Confucian master, founder of the Hedong School, with his name Dewen and pseudonym Jingxuan, and from Hejin (now Wanrong County), Shanxi Province. Because he had taught in Bailu Cave of Zhu Xi, he was very popular, so people respectfully called him "Master Xue". He was a Jinshi, and he served as the Chief Minister of Dali Temple and a Bachelor of Hanlin Academy. Empress Dowager Sun learned about this person because of one incident. Xue Xuan was hit by Wang Zhen: Dali Temple received the case, commanded the commander's wife, and the defendant poisoned his husband Qu and made a fuss. Xue Xuan thought it was strange, and after investigation, he knew the reason. Commander's envoy was found out. Commander's envoy was found out.
His wife was pretty. After the commander died, Wang Shan wanted to take her away as his wife. The commander's wife refused, so he was falsely accused by Wang Shan. Xue Xuan dismissed the case without hesitation. When Wang Zhen heard about it, he was furious and asked the censor Wang Wen to falsely accuse Xue Xuan and convicted Xue Xuan in prison for death. In prison, Xue Xuan was calm and free, holding the "Book of Changes" in his hand. Before the execution, an old servant beside Wang Zhen cried secretly. Wang Zhen asked him why? The old servant said, "I heard that Master Xue was going to punish me, so I cried." Wang Zhen learned from this that Xue Xuan was a gentleman who was a great man, and executing him would cause great public anger. Many court officials wrote letters to plead for Xue Xuan, and Wang Zhen followed the flow and released Xue Xuan from being punished.
"Xue Aiqing said!" said Yingzong.
"Man sacrifice is the system of ancestors, which is no different from the system of inheritance of the eldest son. However, Zhu Di abolished the system of inheritance of the eldest son, and respected the system of death! I am willing to support Your Majesty to intercept or abolish the system of death!" Xue Xuan said.
"The human sacrifice system should be intercepted or abolished, which will be harmful to the dynasty and the common people but will not be beneficial!" Li Xian said loudly, and Empress Dowager Sun, the emperor and his ministers could hear it clearly.
"Yes! Li Xian is right!" Peng Shi and his ministers said loudly. Empress Dowager Sun was so happy to listen and looked at Yingzong with a smile.
"I support Your Majesty and intercept people to sacrifice to the ancestors. Long live my emperor, long live!" The ministers all knelt on the ground and said loudly.
"Okay! The emperor issued an order to intercept people and sacrifice them!" The emperor looked at Empress Dowager Sun and whispered loudly in the hall.
