Chapter 594.
In fact, after Zhu Di issued his decree, the group of ministers standing here already roughly understood what was going on.
With several sons of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to oversee the matters of the rebellion, isn’t the meaning more than obvious?
And then think of Zhang Anshi when he first recommended Zheng Chen people and so on.
What a great guy ……
This is not helping the Japanese, but clearly pushing Ashikaga Yoshinobu into the fire.
People have been hitting on it for a long time!
The funny thing is that the people of the world are ignorant of this, and think that Zhang Anshi is in the Japanese.
Now that we think about it carefully, the matter is, in the final analysis, a matter of perception.
People like Zheng Chen are only good at summarizing experiences and lessons, but where in the world can things be summarized only by some examinations and paper studies?
Anything, not full of hardship, there are countless variables, the blood and sweat of the real doers, and not just people in the book, a few empty talk can be summarized?
People like Zheng Chen, ostensibly a great scholar of the new school, but his essence, in fact, and the original great Confucian is not any different.
It is nothing more than a blind belief that once lessons and experiences are drawn, some dogmas can be produced and become universally applicable.
In recent years, because of the success of the new policy, many of the great Confucianism turned to the study of the new science, their voice is bigger, and really better than others to explain the reasoning, because of this, so they are also decent scenery, on the contrary, those who are really stooping to the implementation of the new policy of the people, on the one hand, it is not possible to go to the practical work to compete for the words and the volume of the voice, on the other hand, it may not be able to speak more than the Zheng Chen of these people have a sense of reasoning.
This will lead to, Zheng Chen these people, but seems to have become the mainstream, the achievement of the new policy, but the countless gray face, all over the state and county executives, but seems to have nothing to do with the new policy.
But to some extent, today is to let a lot of people suffered a lot of lessons and make people think carefully, especially Xie Jin, the heart can not help but tighten, but the mind is thinking about Java.
Zhu Di then, then looked to that Cai Min said: “I should be your request, is about to enter Fusan on behalf of the Japanese king to pacify the rebellion, rescue Zhu Sheng, this time you also go with the army, on behalf of the lead, how?”
Cai Min is still in a mess all over, but the heart is also slightly fixed some, but a lot of peace of mind, and immediately did not dare to excuse, sincerely kowtowed: “Students would like to go.”
Zhu Di nodded his head, scanned the crowd, and added: “If there is nothing else to be played, all retire, the crown prince and Zhang Qing stay.”
The ministers then retired with heavy hearts.
When only the three of them were left here, Zhu Di revealed a smile in his eyes and looked at Zhang Anshi, saying, “Good you a Zhang Anshi, such boldness, recommending so many people to the Japanese king, but pit them in a bitter way. These people are still unknown whether they are alive or dead, if they are dead, if they know in the spring, they must hate you.”
Zhang Anshi laughed dryly and said: “Your Majesty, I do not also have no way? There is always a difference between the importance of things, their lives are also life, but one thought, those nephews of the minister …… I also do not make other thoughts, if there is really any retribution, it will be retributed to the body of the minister is good.”
Seeing Zhu showing appreciation.
Zhang Anshi continued: “In addition, a few years ago, I do not know what trend, people have to go to study the new science, hoping to summarize some of the former new government’s gains and losses out of the new school can be once and for all as the implementation of the charter of the future governance of the world. I think, this is extremely dangerous, do not know, the world situation, at any time in the change. Like Confucianism, 2,000 years ago, it advocated the unification, the ruler and ministers to abide by etiquette, benevolence and love is not the most important principle? It’s just that by now, it has long been impractical.”
After a pause, he went on to say: “the world’s affairs, can not be summarized by scholars of some fur experience, will be considered unchanged for eternity. Need to be appropriate for the time, according to the local conditions, according to the people, through the situation in the world, to make relatively favorable judgments, hold on to the defects, and ultimately, but to make the scholars of the new learning, to become the day of the corrupted Confucianism only.”
Speaking of this, he sighed faintly said: “But these scholars, all of them are not very loud, mouth like a river, I said and said, want to suppress, but after all, their research is a new science, the promotion of the new policy, is not without some benefits. So they had to bite the bullet, tearfully chopped Ma Su, borrowed their heads a use, to the future generations of children and grandchildren, long a long lesson, the world and then listen to the reasoning, no matter how flawless, after all …… is to speak but the bloody truth.”
Chu: “……”
Zhu Di subconsciously nodded his head, but also recognized Zhang Anshi’s words. Heart a little thought, but also think Zhang Anshi this action thought-provoking, I’m afraid that after this matter, many people can also understand the reasoning.
Look at Zhu Di pondering, Zhang Anshi pause, and for their own explanation: “Not to mention that although I expected, this Japanese new policy is bound to fail, but also do not dare to have a ten percent certainty, it is not allowed to say, Zheng Chen, these people can really save the tide in the downfall, they really have such a skill?”
“Now, to this situation today, although the minister also has some responsibility, but Zheng Chen, don’t they have a tiny bit of responsibility? Where they have a tiny bit of ability, where there is less boastfulness and less blind obedience, in any case, they would not have fallen to this point today.”
Zhu Di smiled and said, “Well, well, I know that you are also good, your heart is good, just Zheng Chen those people are not good at their skills.”
Zhang Anshi said without blushing, “Your Majesty knows me.”
Zhu Di then smiled again, the words turned, said, “Just that the North Korean country …… but do not know how it is?”
Zhang Anshi slightly raised his eyes, chest of wisdom said: “your majesty, according to my opinion, also soon. At least now, is all over the dry wood fire, even if it does not breed chaos, that the king of Joseon is afraid to have been scared out of his wits, fear of repeating the same mistake, should be in these days, there will be the envoys of Joseon country to, please the court to send some troops and horses, just in case of any mishap.”
Zhu Di’s eyes brightened, then he narrowed his eyes and nodded, “For these two countries, dividing them into four or five princes should be enough?”
Zhang Anshi said: “It should be enough, for example, the Japanese country, can be divided into four, and then leave a piece, to that Ashikaga family. In any case, this is also a country left behind by Emperor Taizu Gao as a non-conquest country, and the imperial court has granted a golden seal; furthermore, after the heavenly army reaches Fusan, there will always be Japanese people who can come out and sign a pact for the protection of the Japanese country ……”
Zhu Di nodded and nodded, “In this matter, you set a charter, and on the side of the North Korean country, you should also place two grandchildren for me. In this way, I will be relieved.”
Saying that, Zhu Di’s eyes overflowed with laughter, visible at this time the joy in his heart.
Zhang Anshi, however, suddenly said, “I’ll set the statute?”
Zhu Di said slowly, “What, too much burden on yourself?”
Zhang Anshi panicked, “I don’t dare.”
Zhu then added, “Strike hard.”
Hearing these familiar words, Zhang Anshi was a bit dazed.
Zhu Di at this time, however, dropped his gaze on Zhu Gaoqi’s body and said, “You’ve married a good wife.”
Zhu Gaoqi was about to respond, then heard Zhang Anshi said: “Your Majesty, I this three-legged cat skills, are playing the small crown prince His Highness taught by example, if not for His Highness the crown prince’s attentive teaching, how can there be today.”
Zhu Di only laughed, but did not refute, he sighed with a few feelings, “I am old, if in the old days, always have to you this oily-tongued guy scolded hard before.”
Zhang Anshi also smiled sarcastically.
Zhu Gaoqi on the side then also revealed a heartfelt smile.
Back at the royal residence, a charter was being drafted.
To put it bluntly, the Great Ming into Fusan, no difficulty, not to mention within the Japanese, the Ashikaga family’s henchmen counterparts, over the years, the navy and model battalion can also be said to be a rapid progress.
Japan is an island nation, so as long as the sailors have an overwhelming advantage, then they can attack any location at any time, and for the supply of the model battalion, it is also a great help.
If it were an enemy country that was landlocked and had a vast land mass, this advantage might not be obvious; after all, the supply lines were too long, and the weaponry advantage of the Model Battalion, because of these long supply lines, might not be fully utilized.
But for such a long and narrow island, it is easy to transport as much gunpowder and shells as you want at low cost, with a constant flow of supplies, plentiful supplies, and if you really want to piss off, any so-called fortress can be accomplished by indiscriminate bombardment.
But how to share the profits, precisely Zhang Anshi feel the most headache, that Japan alone, have to resettle his four nephews.
Here, among the adult and near-adult grandsons, in addition to the great grandson Zhu Zhanji, there are two others who were born to his own sister, Crown Princess Zhang, one is the third son Zhu Zhanlong, and the other is the fifth son Zhu Jun-Sun.
But because of this, Zhang Anshi anti not good to have too much bias, the other two nephews, precisely because they are not born of their own sister, if the benefits are given to their own nephews, inevitably be criticized.
Regarding this point, Zhang Anshi was the most aware of his own sister Zhang’s temperament, in her place, at least on the surface would also appear to be impartial, and would not be too biased!
After all, in the future, she is the Empress, is the head of the harem, the mother of the world, eating too ugly, after all, it is not good. As her own brother, he can’t leave her with words.
Therefore, in order to the division of the kings, Zhang Anshi can be said to be a broken heart, trying his best to do a bowl of water to the end of the level.
This head Zhang Anshi for this headache, that end, Wen Yuange in these two days is a mess.
Because to send troops, and according to his majesty’s intention, is to quickly suppress the rebellion, therefore, these two days, the model battalion has been urgently mobilized, telegrams to the mouth of the Songjiang River, Huating port, the sailors can use the ships are also gathered, a large number of supplies, crazy like relying on the water and rail transportation, moving the Shanghai ship.
Xie Jin people, and the Ministry of War, responsible for scheduling, fear of failure, so almost sleepless.
There are many chores that can slow down the overall progress if there is no prior program or charter.
And on this point, but it is precisely the Wen Yuan Pavilion of university professors to take advantage of.
They may not have Zhang Anshi’s foresight or his resourcefulness, but when it comes to the details of the matter, as well as picking up the pieces, scheduling and coordinating, Zhang Anshi is far inferior.
Naturally, Zhang Anshi had to be re-examined by the Wen Yuan Ge University scholar.
Especially Hu Guang, this Hu Guang saw Zhang Anshi on duty, then smiled and said: “Your Highness, the newspaper you can read it? Southeastern coast, countless soldiers and civilians, all said that your highness, you have a brilliant plan, haha …… lift your hand between, will avenge their blood, I do not know how many people, praised your highness planning it.”
Zhang Anshi didn’t take this praise too seriously. In his heart, he was silently thinking, some days ago, he scolded me for being a bonobo, but in the end, he praised me again, so it’s true that people’s hearts are like flowing water.
Zhang Anshi said with a tiger’s face: “No matter, what is the plan, what is Mr. Hu saying, I don’t understand at all! I Zhang Anshi initially recommended Zheng Chen these people, is for the sake of the good of the Japanese country, is for the implementation of the new policy of the Japanese country, so that the Japanese country can be rich and strong, alas, just my bad luck, but my heart is good …….”
“Alright, alright.” Hu Guang did not believe these words of Zhang Anshi since.
He scowled at Zhang Anshi and said, “If Your Highness wants to defend yourself, you can go and defend yourself to the people of the world on your own, what’s the use of talking to me about this? Could it be that if Lao Fu believes in Your Highness’s bullshit, others will also be convinced?”
Immediately, he converged on the smile and said: “Your Highness, laughing and cursing by the people Well, you both have to be criticized by the metrics, sometimes other people praise, but also do not have to be so modest. We are Wen Yuange university scholar, although not prime minister, but the prime minister’s stomach can support the boat …… in our stomach ……”
Zhang Anshi put on a resigned look, but sighed and interrupted him, “Hey …… after all, the world does not know my Zhang Anshi s good intentions, so be it.”
“The first batch of pioneers, are already sailing.” At this time, Xie Jin paced over head-on.
He looked at Hu Guang and Zhang Anshi, then said: “Just received the telegram, today’s hour, the fleet has set off first, as a vanguard, first to a Japanese harbor landing, where …… entrenched in the Japanese a powerful clan, known as the Edo clan, they are closely linked with the Han merchants, once the sailors Once the navy arrives, it is thought that they need to welcome the heavenly soldiers, and after landing, they will first occupy this place and set up defense, and then cope with the subsequent army.”
Zhang Anshi looked up at Xie Jin, nodded his head and said, “I am relieved to have Zhu Yong and Zhang Yoking to come. It’s just that I’m still concerned about the well-being of Ashikaga Yoshitaka ……”
Just talking here, suddenly a shepherd came hurriedly, holding a note in his hand, and when he reached the three, he anxiously said, “Several adults, telegrams, telegrams …… the latest telegrams, from the port of Huating, there are telegrams to come.”
The crowd was silenced, and each of them looked at the sherpa with burning eyes.
Sheriff said: “Huating harbor side, and a Han merchants, from the Japanese escape back, brought the latest news, said …… Ashikaga Yoshitaka, was caught by the rebels, overnight was chopped into mush, not only that, Ashikaga family …… up and down, seventy-three people were also killed at the same time, his family members and others are also dead or injured! The Ashikaga family, seventy-three people, also died at the same time, and their retainers, etc., are also either dead or injured! The rebels are raging, the momentum is very large, although there are still Ashikaga family retainers and their accounts under the samurai are still resisting in various places, but this rebellion is extremely fierce …… only fear, if the court rescue is not timely, I’m afraid that they are all going to be in a bad way. However, there are a few daimyo, still willing to serve the Ashikaga family …… now …… just waiting for the court’s military horse.”
Zhang Anshi cried and laughed when he heard this.
Well, he hated himself for being such an oaf, how he said that when it came to Ashikaga Yoshinobu, his whole family was dead.
Xie Jin and Hu Guangren looked at each other in dismay, and Xie Jin then raised his eyebrows and said, “Does the Ashikaga family still have side branches?”
This sherpa said, “That is true, this Ashikaga family is a large Japanese family, and there are quite a few side branches.”
Xie Jinyin nodded, and calm down, pondered for a while, said: “the so-called success does not have to be in me, this Ashikaga Yoshitoshi family was killed by the rebels, see these rebels, how vicious! Ashikaga is the Emperor’s high emperor of Japan, they are so killed my Ming vassal, has been considered a violation of the laws of the heavens, immediately call back, teach the troops to the rebels do not have to be polite, and make sure to get rid of the evil, for Ashikaga to avenge the shame of the religion, where there is a resistance, all killed, I am certainly the grace of the four seas, but there is a thunderbolt of anger.”
Hu Guang said on the other side, “After arriving in Japan, it is still necessary to search for the side branch of the Ashikaga family, and when there is a whereabouts, immediately inform, and then …… the court will not be able to avoid giving the grace of rain.”
Xie Jin, however, pinching his beard, could not help but add on the sidelines: “older is not necessary, long life is not long, the old man is afraid that there will still be a mess, if it is a child, but it is very stable, the child is more long-lived.”
The sheriff was on hand to take careful note of each one.
At this time, Hu Guang looked at Zhang Anshi: “Your Highness, King of Song, is there anything else to add?”
Zhang Anshi scratched his head and said, “I am in grief and anger at this time, but I have nothing to account for. When you pass on the telegram, remember to give Zhu Yong and General Zhang Yoking a good word and tell them to do a good job.”
The sheriff said yes, and hurried off again.
Waiting for this sherpa to go, Zhang Anshi then said with a sighing face, “Alas, Ashikaga Yoshitake is really poor ah, good end, how to die, last time he came, we still talk to each other, I did not think that so soon in heaven, hey …… my heart aches for him ah.”
The corner of Xie Jin’s mouth twitched a bit inaudibly, and then he gave Zhang Anshi an odd look.
Zhang Anshi continued: “I think about it, now the holy orders in the body, can not personally go to Fusan convergence of Ashikaga Yoshitomo’s bones, can not help but feel ashamed, in any case, it is always a acquaintance, but would like to write him a eulogy, at least also counted as a friend of the righteousness.”
Hu Guang said, “Your Highness is kind.”
He did not have the heart to care about Zhang Anshi at this time, the situation has changed, the next, there may be some statutes, need to make some deletions.
But Zhang Anshi said, “Duke Hu, you write well, may as well this eulogy, you write it. Just give me face, I’ll sign my name, and then send the residence newspaper.”
Hu Guang’s face slumped and blankly glanced at Zhang Anshi, “Your Highness, old man is very busy.”
Zhang Anshi sadly said, “Just please Hu Gong to take time out of his busy schedule, that Ashikaga brother, but the whole family died, ah, Hu Gong does not have the slightest bit of sympathy?”
Hu Guang: “……”
