Chapter 1138: Waiting for the Nanjing Turmoil?


Don't quarrel in the book review area.

The Yuan and Qing dynasties were not the orthodox dynasties of China, and if they were not, they were not.

To look at whether a dynasty is an orthodox dynasty in China is mainly to see whether the main nation of the dynasty is oppressed and enslaved, and if so, then this dynasty is obviously not an orthodox dynasty.

Whether some people agree with it or not, it is irrefutable that the orthodox dynasties of Chinese history were established by the Han people, and Chinese civilization was also established and inherited by the Han people.

What we now call the orthodox dynasty itself is the thinking of the Han people, so it is obviously difficult for the Han people to admit that the period of oppression and enslavement is their orthodox dynasty.

Maybe some people can do it, proud and proud, but I can't do it anyway.

My point is that we don't need to put gold on our faces, and we recognize that the Yuan and Qing dynasties were semi-colonial periods when the Han were conquered by foreign peoples.

As the textbooks say, China after the Opium War was a semi-colony of the great powers.

Because that's the truth, since that's the case, why can't we admit it generously, but instead steal the "glory" of our ancestors, which is just a joke.

Only by having a clear history can we move forward without baggage.

The denial that the Yuan and Qing dynasties were not China has nothing to do with China's existing territory, because China's existing territory was fought down by the people's army, not inherited by anyone.

If we want to talk about inheritance, we are also inheriting the Han and Tang Dynasties, not the pseudo-Yuan and pseudo-Qing.

Without further ado, I won't write about it, and I'll write my novels well.

After all, this is a novel, and the novel is still based on the story.

If you write too much about those things, everyone will have a headache when you look at them, and it will affect your reading.

It's not easy for me to write, but making up stories for readers and reasoning for readers are two different things.

At least, the former, I can write nonsense with my hands.

The latter, however, must not be written nonsense.

The history of the Yuan Dynasty is to be reconstructed, not to tamper with anything, but to remove it from the orthodox dynastic history and clear the source.

This book is 3 million words, I praise one for my persistence, if you think the spirit of the bones is worthy of praise, then also praise one.

Ahem, I've taken out the broken bowl and looked at you with a smile on my face.

I won't do anything else, the lotus flower has not been sung for many years, a little rusty, you want to like to listen, I will sing one: "Holding the nest head in my hand, there is not a drop of oil in the dish" Nandu.

Shoufu Guo Zhiqi has not yet returned to Beijing, and the current situation in the court is unclear, Huang Zongxi intends to go out of the city to visit Gu Yanwu in Niushou Mountain, but he still didn't go after thinking about it.

Nandu has been much quieter these days, the situation is no longer as tense as before, and the pro-army no longer arrests people on a large scale, but the guards of the original yamen have been replaced.

Huang Zongxi pondered that this might be the meaning of Zhenjiang, and thought that His Royal Highness the King of Qi also had the meaning of easing.

But this matter, after all, can only be determined when Guo Zhiqi comes back, and for now, he can only wait with his heart.

Vance was ordered by his master to go to the Hanlin Academy to find Mao Xiang, hoping that the latter would transfer his teacher's original monarch to Qian Qianyi, in exchange for the leader of the Jiangnan literary world to support his teacher's public servant theory.

If he can get Qian Qianyi's support, Huang Zongxi will have a great deal of confidence in encouraging Qi Shilin so that the scholars can accept his new views.

In this way, firstly, he can completely overwhelm Gu Yanwu's Hypocritical Monarch Theory, secondly, he can also gain the favor of Zhou Shixiang, and thirdly, he can exchange a door brick for the Jiangnan gentry who are becoming more and more neglected, so as to preserve the gentry inheritance.

Mao Xiang had just returned from giving a lecture to the eldest princess in the palace, and his wife Dong Xiaowan was making tea for him.

After listening to what Vance said, Mao Xiang promised to go to Suzhou in person tomorrow.

Vance was happy and chatted with him a few more words, and Mao Xiang inadvertently said that the queen mother had found the eldest princess today.

The queen mother is the queen of the original Yongli Emperor, and now that the Yongli Emperor is dead, she was admitted to the palace by Emperor Dingwu and respected as the queen mother.

But according to the actual generation, this queen is the nephew and daughter-in-law of Emperor Dingwu, so it is not in line with the etiquette system to respect the queen mother.

However, because the original respect for Yongli as the emperor was unanimously agreed by Emperor Dingwu and Zhou Shixiang, the king of Qi, so now it can only be wrong.

Since Jiashen, the part of the sect's ritual law has long been gone.

The queen mother is looking for the eldest princess for her maiden family in Songjiang.

Although she has been away from home for 20 years, and the Queen Mother's parents have long since died, in any case, the Queen Mother always came from the Songjiang Wang family, so she was uneasy to learn that her mother's family was arrested and imprisoned because of her involvement in the riots.

Anxious, the queen mother was also inconvenient to go to Emperor Dingwu, so she wanted to ask the eldest princess to come forward to help him intercede with King Qi, after all, the eldest princess was originally married to Zhou Shixiang by her husband's decree.

The eldest princess comforted the queen mother and promised that she would repair a letter to Zhou Shixiang about this matter.

Wan Sitong has also heard about the Songjiang Wang family, but he doesn't think that the eldest princess can protect the Wang family by coming forward, after all, the Wang family is guilty of treason.

Mao Xiang also had this view, but his wife Dong Xiaowan said that the Songjiang royal family could escape this catastrophe.

Puzzled, he asked his wife why she had this opinion.

Dong Xiaowan smiled and said: "If you don't look at the face of the Buddha and look at the face of the monk, no matter how ruthless His Royal Highness King Qi is, he can't even give face to his wife who has not passed the door." ” Mao Xiang didn't see it that way, he told Dong Xiaowan and Wan Sitong that His Majesty seemed to have the intention of regretting the marriage.

Vance Tong sighed and said that he had also heard about this matter, and that His Royal Highness the King of Qi had done a little too much in the past two years, so it was no wonder that His Majesty would have such an idea.

Combined with the recent situation, the three of them were a little silent and did not continue to talk about this matter.

Vance got up to say goodbye and returned to the house, but his teacher Huang Zongxi asked him to accompany him to the city.

Vance knew that his mentor had a lot of worries in the past few days, so he was very happy to accompany his mentor around the city.

Both of them were dressed in plain clothes, and two of Vance's family members were with them.

Compared with 20 years ago, Nanjing City is definitely much inferior, but after all, it is the capital of Liu, and now it is where the Son of Heaven is stationed, so the population in the city has increased a lot in the past two years, and the market has also recovered a lot.

It's just that the flower and wine business on both sides of the Qinhuai River is a little depressed, and those who don't know the inside story only say that those sisters are good, and those who know the inside story understand it, and that's because His Royal Highness the King of Qi leaned heavily on Qinglou and cracked down on it.

It is said that His Royal Highness the King of Qi levied heavy taxes on the Qinglou and severely cracked down on the prostitutes, because the Qinglou who had no eyes offended the generals under the King of Qi, so it caused this catastrophe.

But whether this news is true or not, no one dares to find out.

One thing is very clear, that is, a large number of thugs who were raised by various green buildings in the past are now arrested to work as coolies to build roads.

After wandering around the city for an hour, Huang Zongxi and Vance came to the outside of the Jiangnan Gongyuan, which was connected to the Confucian Temple and the Confucian Temple, and was a very lively place in the past.

It's just that now the area of the Gongyuan is deserted, and there are not many scholars in the Confucian Temple and the Confucian Temple.

The reason why this is the case is that it is now rumored that the imperial court is going to strike the history of the scriptures and add five or six subjects, which has caught those who are familiar with the eight stocks off guard, and now they don't know what to do.

In addition, Jiangnan cleared the arrears and suppressed the rebellion, and most of the gentry who were arrested and killed were gentry, which made the readers even more panicked.

In such a situation, how can anyone in the Temple of Literature and the Temple of Confucius still have the heart to worship, if it is not good, don't be like Suzhou, there is a "crying temple case".

Gongyuan is only crowded with people during the township exam, and now is not the exam season, so naturally there are no people.

Looking at such a deserted place, Huang Zongxi sighed with emotion, shook his head, and motioned for Vance to follow him to Dongcheng for a walk.

Dongcheng was inhabited by ordinary people, and commerce was very prosperous.

The streets are full of people, and it is much more lively than in Zhigongyuan.

Huang Zongxi saw a lot of new things in the bazaar, which he had never seen before, and even saw goods shipped from all over Lingnan.

There are a few shops that specialize in selling overseas goods, and after asking, they said that they were shipped from Annam.

Huang Zongxi was very surprised, and couldn't help but inquire with the shopkeeper.

"This old man doesn't know, Annan is now occupied by my Ming Dynasty, and its land is quite rich, especially the rice is quite fragrant, and most of the rice eaten in Liangguang is Annan's rice now.

My shop is also mainly engaged in Annam rice, but the price is much more expensive than the local one, mainly because the transportation cost is too high. ” Listening to what the shopkeeper said, Huang Zongxi nodded, this shop is specially facing the rich families of Nandu at first glance, not an ordinary rice shop.

Huang Zongxi had also heard about the Taiping army's occupation of Annam, but knew that the Taiping army did not occupy the entire territory of Annam, but only occupied two ports along the coast of Annam.

However, these two ports alone can transport a large amount of safe products to China, and if they occupy a few more places, they will bring more things Thinking of this, Huang Zongxi shook his head secretly, because the Ming Dynasty had occupied Annan at the beginning, but in the end it was lost there, which shows that Annan is not easy to occupy, otherwise it is impossible for the Taiping army to occupy only two ports in Annan.

No matter how unknown the soldiers, Huang Zongxi also knew that the Daming Naval Division was stronger than Annam, and the Taiping Army's ability to occupy the two ports in Annam was related to the fact that the Naval Division was too strong.

If it is really the same as the Yongle period, it will fully occupy Annan, but I am afraid that it will also be a fruitless end.

The shopkeeper saw that Huang Zongxi and the others didn't look like buying things, so he didn't care, and said with a smile: "But in a few years, I'm afraid that this Annan rice will be much cheaper, and once the sea route is passed, the cost on this road will be much smaller than now." ” "Why, now that the sea route is not open, how did you get this goods?"

Vance was a little strange.

The shopkeeper explained that the sea route was open, but there were risks, and there were many pirates at sea, including domestic and Western pirates, and there were even Japanese people, and they did not dare to transport goods from the sea on a large scale until the sailors could not completely eliminate the pirates at sea.

At present, only a few of the goods in the south of the Yangtze River come by sea, and most of them are still by land, and many places on this land route are deserted, and it is very difficult to walk, so that the goods are transported thousands of miles from Guangdong to Nandu, and the cost is naturally great.

After listening to the shopkeeper's words, both the teacher and the student understood.

After coming out of this shop, looking at the crowd coming and going from time to time, Huang Zongxi did not speak.

Seeing this, Vance guessed: "The teacher is not here to visit the people and understand the people's feelings."

Huang Zongxi glanced at his most proud disciple, shook his head and said, "You may be able to see the people's feelings here, but you can't understand the people's feelings." ” "Why" Vance wondered, "Isn't it the best place to understand the hearts of the people with such a concentration of people here?"

Huang Zongxi said: "A large number of people does not mean that you can know the hearts of the people. ” "The disciple doesn't know, please ask the teacher to explain."

Vance was a little confused.

"In the market, the people are busy fighting for profit and making a living, and their minds are all used on a good word, how do you know what they think in their hearts?"

"The teacher wants to know what the people think of state affairs" Vance suddenly realized why the teacher came out.

Huang Zongxi didn't answer his disciple, but pointed to an alley not far away and said, "Let's go there and go around." ” "Good" Vance followed Huang Zongxi into the alley at the moment.

He instructed his two family members to stay here and wait.

It was an alley that could only be crossed by a horse-drawn carriage, and it was empty and unoccupied, so it was very peaceful.

As soon as he walked into the alley, Vance felt a sense of tranquility that was completely different from the bustle outside, as if his soul had found a place to rest.

The teacher and the student walked slowly in this alley, and after a while, they came to the alley, but a carriage came in front of them, and suddenly, the teacher and student stood there at a loss, because they could not pass at the same time as the carriage.

Seeing that the car was driven by an old man, and the car was full of daily necessities, Huang Zongxi motioned to Vance to go back.

The two had just walked for a while, but the people in the car stopped them and said, "If you two want to pass, why do you have to turn back." ” Hearing this, Vance stopped and turned to the charioteer: "It's only so wide here, we don't turn back, do you want you to turn back?"

Huang Zongxi smiled but did not speak.

After hearing this, the driver smiled in the car: "I naturally don't want to turn back, but as the saying goes, it's convenient for you to be convenient with others, and you pass by my car, won't you all pass?"

This is a good idea, Vance just wanted to agree, but he thought that the teacher was old, how could he climb into the carriage, and was about to refuse, but the teacher came up to ask the coachman why he moved.

The coachman jumped off the carriage, and did not shy away from anything, and said bluntly: "If you don't move, are you waiting for this Nanjing chaos" oshow7 t1706231537:
