After yelling at the shopkeeper who was talking, Boss Wu said: "Today, my old man Wu caught not only a head fish, but also a king fish nearly ten feet long! Such a fat big yellow croaker is hard to even see. Never seen it!

Now the emperor happens to be stationed in Quanzhou, and I, Boss Wu, want to dedicate this fish king to the emperor. Whoever dares to snatch it, just come up and try it! "

As soon as Boss Wu's words fell, the merchants on the shore were dumbfounded—under the watchful eyes of everyone, who would have the guts to say that they snatched this big yellow croaker?

Seeing everyone else's sighs, Emperor Chongzhen said with a faint smile: "It seems that today is a lucky day."

Tian Sanshi glanced at Emperor Chongzhen unexpectedly.

Seeing that Tian Sanshi was a little puzzled, Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said, "If the common people have such thoughts, they must not be chilled in any way. This fish, let people accept it later, and we can't lose to Boss Wu. Yes. Now, how much is this fish worth?"

Tian Sanshi thought it over and said: "The big yellow croaker is not worth much, there are plenty in the sea, and they can always be caught, but this large yellow croaker, which is more than ten feet long, is worth a lot, at least 200 taels of silver?"

Emperor Chongzhen said: "300 taels, I will reward him with 300 taels of silver later. I accept the fish's intentions, but I can't accept his fish for nothing, let alone let the common people lose money."

After Wang Chengen bowed and responded, Tian Sanshi couldn't help but rubbed his hands together, and said with a smile, "Why don't I let this humble minister handle this big fish?"

Emperor Chongzhen once again mentioned the issue of cooking by Tian Sanshi, and couldn't help saying in surprise: "Don't they all say that the gentleman stays away from the kitchen?"

Tian Sanshi blushed, and said with a sneer: "Your Majesty was joking, that happened many years ago."

PS: Today, "The First Crazy Man of the Tang Dynasty" is sacrificed. Anyway, the book of a good friend, it would be a pity not to sacrifice it to heaven!

Chapter 8 Twelve Not a Good Thing

Ever since Emperor Chongzhen put on the hat of the Great Master of Confucianism, and then passed away the Southern and Northern Sects of the Confucian family, it was doomed that Confucianism in the world could only be respected by Emperor Chongzhen, after all, he was the last one to be recognized by the world. The great master of Confucianism.

After obtaining the right to speak of Confucianism, Emperor Chongzhen naturally took up the knife and carried out a major transformation of Confucianism.

Zhu Xi?Preserving the laws of heaven and destroying human desires?

This master doesn't like it, so naturally it doesn't need to exist, and the schools in various places should use rams as the main ones.

As for whether there will be some rangers in the future who will draw their swords at each other, and then shout the slogan that the hatred of ten generations can still be restored, Emperor Chongzhen expressed that he was not worried.

When the yamen is to eat dry food?

If it was the former yamen, those yamen servants might really be working for nothing. After all, no one would go all out to catch and arrest thieves.

However, in the current yamen, since the county-level yamen has been staffed with retired veterans, these killers who are proficient in battle formation and killing skills will allow someone to do things in their jurisdiction?

Just like a ferocious beast would pee on a territory, these retired veterans also cared about the security in their jurisdiction, after all, it was related to their own pockets.

With Confucianism undergoing major surgery, and the rise of Mohism, Legalism, Farming, Military Strategists, Strategists, etc., the nonsense of a gentleman staying away from the kitchen is no longer mentioned.

Just like a woman's lack of talent is virtue, no one brings up this kind of nonsense, and instead, there is a trend among the people that requires girls to also study.

It is impossible to verify where this ethos arose in the first place, and Emperor Chongzhen had no interest in sending Jin Yiwei to find out the root cause. He just threw this issue to the cabinet and stopped asking.

The cabinet and the court have also had a lot of quarrels over this issue, with some supporting it and others opposing it.

Whether Emperor Chongzhen changed Confucianism or a new type of learning became popular, in fact, it has little to do with the bigwigs in the court. Although these bigwigs have always followed in the footsteps of Emperor Chongzhen, but the knowledge Things, sometimes you can't keep up if you want to, especially the big guys whose minds are full of the original Confucianism.

As for those who supported Emperor Chongzhen, most of them were those who entered the imperial court after graduating from Beijing Normal University. Although these people's official positions were generally not high, they were still a force that should not be underestimated.

Emperor Chongzhen naturally sat on the dragon chair and watched the play indifferently, until the final decision: the women's school should be opened, and it should be separated from the men's school. Even if it is in the same courtyard, it is not in the same classroom. Attend class.

If you want to directly create a system of mixed classes for men and women, the current situation in Ming Dynasty obviously does not allow it, and there is no need for Emperor Chongzhen to fight against the whole world just because of this matter.

The women's school was finally opened, and the harem concubines such as Queen Zhou and Concubine Yi would go to the Beijing Women's School from time to time to listen.

Now Tian Sanshi said that it was many years ago that the gentleman stayed away from the kitchen. Naturally, it has something to do with the great reform of Confucianism - the gentleman is like a beast, seeing its life, can't bear to see its death, smelling its life, can't bear to eat its flesh Therefore, the gentleman is far away from the kitchen.

For the reinterpretation of classics such as "The Analects of Confucius" and "Mencius", more is to follow the original meaning, pay attention to the relationship between the front and the back, and no longer dig deep into the words of a certain sentence alone.

Emperor Chongzhen naturally saw this change in Confucianism.

The quality of Confucianism does not lie in Confucianism itself, but in what kind of Confucianism those in power like and how to reform Confucianism.

A Confucianism that emphasizes the idea of ​​great unification and great revenge is obviously more attractive to Emperor Chongzhen, and it is also extremely beneficial to the future development of Ming Dynasty.

After tasting the large yellow croaker carefully cooked by Tian Sanshi at night, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help sighing secretly, all the talents in the Central Plains went to become officials!This Tian Sanshi is clearly Stephen Zhou who was delayed by being an official!

The next day, Emperor Chongzhen took a group of horse boys and Tian Sanshi and others to Quanzhou Prefecture to study, just in time for the football match in Quanzhou Prefecture.

Taking out the popular football game in the military and slightly modifying it, adding some rules and regulations, it makes the students like it. In Daming now, there are so many games like this, and almost every state capital has its own academy. Between the games, occasionally two closer state capitals will play a league.

For these Ming people who can play, Emperor Chongzhen just laughed it off - what else could we do?Let these people play if they know how to play. It is much better to vent your energy on the court than to rebel.

On the third day, Emperor Chongzhen took a group of young horses to the military camp again. This was almost one of the places where Emperor Chongzhen would go every time he got married.

Emperor Chongzhen's good mood ended before departure.

No one could have imagined that a lawsuit would come before Emperor Chongzhen, and the plaintiff was so bold that he directly rang the grievance drum at the gate of the Quanzhou government office while Emperor Chongzhen was in Quanzhou.

Emperor Chongzhen also became curious.

The current situation of Daming is said to be like that of Haiqing, Heyan, etc. Naturally, it is nonsense. After all, where there is light, there is darkness. In order to ensure the peaceful life of the people of Daming, I don’t know how many people are working hard behind the scenes, or even paying for it. life.

However, if the common people can have the courage to choose to sound the drum of grievances when they are in Quanzhou, then the things inside are definitely not simple, and may even be deeply involved.

Because there is no difference between the people of Ming Dynasty and the people of the Celestial Dynasty in the later generations. If there is one less thing, there will be absolutely no more. If there is no other way, no one will take this time to sound the drum of injustice.

Tian Sanshi's face was also extremely ugly.

It was fine for the first three days, seeing that Emperor Chongzhen was about to leave, but such a thing suddenly appeared under his rule, isn't this just embarrassing him?

The problem is, no matter how disgusting it is, this case will have to continue, and even because Emperor Chongzhen is here, it is not easy to settle this case.

Seeing that Tian Sanshi hesitated, Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said, "Tian Aiqing, let's go to Shengtang to ask the case, and I will just listen in the back."

Tian Sanshi suddenly felt amnesty, and after bowing to the Emperor Chongzhen, he hurriedly ran to prepare to be promoted to the court for questioning—the dark history of Emperor Chongzhen, Tian Sanshi who was able to be the magistrate naturally heard people talk about it Well, it's not like this master himself has never done anything before asking questions...

After the routine procedure, Tian Sanshi slammed the gavel in his hand, and shouted: "Who is under the hall, what is the grievance?"

The people in the hall were dressed in Confucian shirts, and they looked like scholars. After bowing their hands to Tian Sanshi, they bowed and said, "My lord, the student Jiang Xinlong is from Nan'an County. birth."

After talking about his identity, Jiang Xinlong went on to say: "The students are here to sue Xiang Yan, Zheng Hang, and Lu Yibo, the big households in Nan'an County, and to sue Miao Haicheng, the magistrate of Nan'an County."

Tian Sanshi couldn't help but stroked his beard, nodded and said, "Do you know what it means to sue Nan'an County? Why did you sue the four of them?"

Jiang Xinlong raised his head and said: "My lord, the students usually like machine skills, after continuous thinking, they finally let the students figure out a weaving machine, which is more efficient than the current weaving machines.

However, after each of Xiang Yan, Zheng Hang, and Lu Yibo bought a textile machine, they imitated it without the students' consent.

It would be fine if it was just that, but relying on their big business and large manpower, the cost of manufacturing looms is much lower than that of the students, and the sales are extremely cheap. The students' looms are almost out of market!

The students had nowhere to appeal, and after suing the three of them to Nan'an County with a single complaint, Miao Haicheng, the magistrate of Nan'an County, tried to cover them up, but ordered the three to pay some money to the students to settle the matter.
