Chapter 543 The gentry are indignant


Chapter 543 How good it is for the gentry to be indignant about the righteousness of the sages, and as long as they hold high the banner of Confucius, they can use the words of the sages to eliminate dissent and suppress opponents.buttoned a big hat at every turn, and all selfishness and selfishness were covered up by Kong Xian's words.All despicable means have been made reasonable under the aura of the words of the sages and the laws of the ancestors.As long as it hinders their interests, they stink their opponents and then bring them down.No matter what the era, these literati are noble, and their nobility will always remain only in words.Moreover, the most important thing is that these mouthpieces will never do anything, as the saying goes, standing and talking is not too much of a backache.Because they don't do things, they never make mistakes.Those who are willing to do things for the people, for the people's livelihood, for the country's society, and for this nation, are all wrong, just like now, people with stupid brains are willing to work hard with Jiannu.As long as you do practical things, there are too many problems that want to pick on them, and those smart people, such as the gentlemen of the Donglin Party, basically hide in the rear of safety, drink flower wine, bubble girls, eat and drink, point out the country, and promote words.They always stand in the perspective of a bystander, raising their eyebrows and raising their eyes at those who do practical things, so that those who do practical things have eyes that are not eyes, and noses are not noses.Right now, they don't think women can go out to work.However, they don't think about it, if women don't work, what do they rely on to live?

The income of an ordinary person is limited, and although the salary of a female worker is not as high as that of a man, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is also meat.As long as you work, you can earn more than one tael of silver, and you can buy two stones of rice, that is, one hundred and eighty-four kilograms.Or some chicken, duck, meat, or oil, salt, sauce and vinegar to subsidize the family.In fact, the wives and daughters of these Donglin gentlemen, they have a large amount of land and tax-free privileges, so they don't have to be busy with three meals a day.Because they occupy the benefits of the system, they can lie down and make money and enjoy the dividends brought to them by the Ming Empire.As a class of vested interests, this group of moths eats the food in the pot, but they do the business of smashing the pot, the general lost the battle on the front line, that is, he is not good at fighting, that is, he is greedy for life and afraid of death, and the court is because of such incompetent people to make the situation deteriorate day by day, and it must be severely punished, must be dealt with, and must be copied and killed......

As for the difficulties mentioned by the general, such as the lack of food and grass in the army, the embezzlement and deduction of military funds, and so on, those are all quibbles!

How can a person who is truly loyal and patriotic negotiate conditions with the court?

Even if you have no money or food, even if you starve to death, you have to fight bravely to kill the enemy.The general won the battle on the front line, well, of course, this is a good thing, and it should be rewarded, but such a brave general, how can the court not guard against it?

And those soldiers under him only know that there is him but do not know that there is a saint, which is clearly a backbone in the back of the head, and will become a big trouble for the court in the future!

Even if you don't get rid of him, you have to cut his military power as soon as possible, or send him a supervisor or something, and then control his money and food supply in his hands by the way, and then divide the generals under him, so that he will honestly work for the court, right?

When I wrote this, Quan Xu's pen turned and he began to talk about history, when did science arise?

This is a question that anyone who reads will know.Zhou Dunyi of the Northern Song Dynasty founded the science of science, through Cheng Hao, Cheng Yi laid the foundation, through Zhu Xi gradually carried forward, however, the real existence of heavenly principles to destroy human desires, in fact, Zhu Xi advocated rational insight, people are blinded by their own selfish desires, so they can not see their true appearance, so they can not understand the truth of heaven and earth, if you want to experience and find the common principle of all things, you must get rid of people's selfish desires.As a result, naturally, it is Sven on the surface, but behind the scenes, men and women are prostitutes, because of the great prosperity of science, it is natural that the Northern Song Dynasty was pressed to the ground by the Jurchens and rubbed, and the Southern Song Dynasty favored the south of the Yangtze River, but was beaten by the Mongols.Quan Xu naturally came to a conclusion that science is the way to bring disaster to the country and the people, the way to the weak country, and the way to harm the people.As soon as the earthen cannon fired, Quan Xu's pen turned again.Wang Shouren is not a disciple of science, he is a psychologist, so he can pacify the rebellion in Jiangxi and protect the pure land.Then, Quan Xu began to bombard the Ming Dynasty's system of raising scholars, the Ming Dynasty in the early years of Wanli, the total income of 22.17 million taels of silver, unfortunately, to the Chongzhen Dynasty was less than 5 million taels, the court tax revenue was reduced by three-quarters, and the fields were reduced by nearly half.So the fields don't grow legs, where do these fields go?

The answer is the gentry of the Ming Dynasty.Jeon Wook's point of view can be described as a stone that stirs up a thousand waves and triggers a violent earthquake.In any industry, there are potential behaviors and rules, and people in a circle can compete or attack each other, but they can't want to expose each other's shortcomings.For example, in the film and television industry, because of the Fan Bingbing incident, the yin and yang contract incident was exposed, which caused a major earthquake in the industry, and the Sanlu incident, which also caused an earthquake in the entire industry.Now Quan Xu is acting as such a promoter, he directly exposes the direct reason why the imperial court's taxes have been reduced and the government cannot collect taxes.In fact, the Ming Dynasty Chongzhen Dynasty tax revenue can not be collected, the reason is many, the gentry evasion of taxes, embezzlement of land This is on the one hand, on the other hand, because of the peasant rebellion, the entire northwest was beaten into a thousand miles of red land, it can be said that Shaanxi, Shanxi, almost no government can be alone.Beizhili, most of Henan, and a part of Shandong, the two capitals and thirteen provinces of the Ming Dynasty, more than one-third of the area have triggered rebellions, where to collect taxes?

Quan Xu did not write about these reasons, but only specifically aimed at the gentry class.The gentry class of the Ming Dynasty was a unique class in Chinese history, and it was fundamentally different from the gentry of the Qing Dynasty, these gentry may not have official positions but also have power in their hands, and most of the people in the bureaucracy came from the gentry class.As a member of the gentry class, a very striking feature of these people is hereditary.It is difficult to produce a noble son from a poor family, because there is no cost and environment for reading and learning.Such a class controls public opinion and can easily influence public opinion and the behavior of the people, for example, to give a very simple example.When an official arrives at a certain place, he obviously does not want to be in the company of the local gentry, and if he wants to do something practical, he is immediately accused of all kinds of slander by the gentry.Like bullying men and women, forcing good people to become prostitutes, etc., the biggest advantage of controlling public opinion is that the black can be said to be white, just like Yang Guang in history, when he mentions him, he is extravagant, however, he only has three sons and two daughters.Li Shimin was a saint of the ages, but he had fourteen sons and twenty-one daughters, of which among his fourteen sons, except for Li Zhi, the mediocre and incompetent Li Fu, and the three sons who died young, the other nine sons died in political struggles.The gentry controlled public opinion, and all the gentry maintained their superficial image, such as building bridges, paving roads, and occasionally setting up porridge sheds, so as to gain a reputation for philanthropy.In fact, they are the culprits behind the peasants' loss of land, and they are also the driving force behind the destruction of their families, the separation of their wives, and their misery.As a class with vested interests, they naturally do not explain the unspoken rules in their circle, and if they are not in this circle, they naturally do not know what kind of lifestyle they have, as well as the core insider.Those who enter this circle will naturally appreciate the wonders of it.As later generations often say, are rich people really happy?

You don't even experience the happiness of a rich person.No one has ever dared to disclose the inside story of this circle, otherwise, it would be the finger of a thousand people, and it would end up without a problem.The Spring and Autumn penmanship of the literati can be said to have ruined countless heroes, such as Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, Su Lie and Su Dingfang of the Tang Dynasty, Cao Cao and Zhou Yu of the Three Kingdoms period, and Emperor Xin of the Shang Dynasty, and naturally Pan Renmei of the Northern Song Dynasty.Does it really matter?

As long as public opinion is in control, the dead can also be said to be alive, and the black can be written as white, anyway, the common people are blind and believe.Where is Quan Xu scolding, he is smashing the pot.The gentry spent hundreds of years to build up a beautiful character, and Quan Xu directly ripped off their disguise at once, the key is that what Quan Xu wrote is not empty words, but has real evidence.In fact, he has been smashing the gentry's pot, usually only within the whole family army, this set of theories has long been mature, even if he finds a soldier of the whole family army for more than a year, he can say three, four, five or six.Later, this theory began to circulate in detail in Jinti Academy, and at the same time, the loopholes in the theory were patched up and gradually improved.This time, he simply smashed the pot of all the gentry.As the article was delivered to the editor-in-chief Wang Wei, the employee who sent it for review trembled with fright: "The sky is about to fall, and this article must not be published!"

”"If this article is published, they are not afraid of the newspaper office to turn it upside down?""

Which of them did it?"

Wang Wei smiled lightly: "Xiucai met the soldiers, it is unreasonable, not to mention that they ignored it!"

”"That's not it!

Why don't you go and tell Master Hou?

”Wang Wei sighed and said: "Don't change a word, publish it truthfully, and stamp 5,000 copies!"

”"This ......"

Wang Wei solemnly looked at the editors around him and said, "You should know whose food you are eating!"

”"But we're also gentry!""

Is the gentry important, or is the society important?

It's better to cry as a family than to cry all the way!

”On August 20, the sixth year of Chongzhen, the Liaodong Industrial and Commercial Times published Quan Xu's article on the front page and word by word.As the chairman of the Liaodong Council and a core member of the top leadership of Liaodong, Shen Mingze developed the habit of reading newspapers a long time ago.The first thing he does at work every day is to read the newspaper, and today he just saw the contents of the newspaper, his face became solemn, he hurriedly got up, grabbed the newspaper and said: "Today these newspapers will stop being sent to other places, waiting for my order!"

”Shen Mingze hurriedly ran outside.7017k
