Emperor Jiajing's Fortune Telling _ Jiajing Divination
In the spring of the forty-fifth year of Jiajing, Harry stood up against Emperor Jiajing, the supreme ruler of the Ming Dynasty.
After several battles, Emperor Jiajing sent all cabinet members to join Harry. As a result, Harry caught Zhao Zhenji and stripped him naked. Then he spoke:
"If Master Zhao doesn't avoid it, Beizhi won't answer a word!"
In desperation, Xu Jie listened to Gao Gong's advice and asked Jiajing Emperor for instructions. What should Jiajing Emperor do with Harry?
One,
Harry put Emperor Jiajing in front of him, making it impossible for the emperor to step down with dignity. Then Emperor Jiajing needs a step, but he must untie the bell and tie the bell, and this step must be provided by Harry.
After Zhao Zhenji's defeat, no minister was willing to block the arrow for Jiajing Emperor, so Jiajing Emperor decided to go out in person and have a good time with Harry.
The eunuch named Shi went out first and told Harry as soon as he came up. The emperor has a decree that he can stand or sit instead of kneeling to answer:
"You are an honest official, the emperor said so!"
This sentence makes sense, because Emperor Jiajing didn't understand what Harry really wanted to do, and the first reason he could think of was that Harry wanted to be famous. It's easy to get a name, and the emperor can give it to you directly-you are an honest official!
The second sentence is:
"The emperor said you were going to compete, but he was not Zhou Wang."
The emperor said this sentence is also very ghost. You Harry is an honest official, there is no doubt about it, but I am not a bad king, right?
Harry seemed to get the message and replied, We are the Ming Dynasty, not the Shang Dynasty, so we can't compare with Zhou Wang. This sentence made eunuch Shi very happy, thinking that Harry understood, he told him that when he came back, did you know how to reply?
Harry returned to the original state:
"Go back."
The eunuch named Shi is a little angry. Why are you so honest, Harry? There is no such way to die. It's just that if you want to die, you have to involve many people:
"I'm here to save you today!"
Second,
This is the step that Jiajing Emperor wanted, and this step is:
"As long as you admit your mistake in front of those people, the emperor will let you go and won't implicate others because of you."
Emperor Jiajing's purpose was to maintain his authority and kill people. The best effect is not that Harry apologizes to the emperor, but that he apologizes to all the ministers as an example. It also puts an end to the possibility that someone will want to learn from him again, and minimizes the impact of the remonstrance incident.
However, it is not easy to simply make Harry admit his mistake, but it is not sweet to twist the melon, but whether he is sweet or not, the melon of Emperor Jiajing must be twisted.
Harry admitted that the emperor had stepped down, but how did Harry step down?
There are two aspects. If Harry doesn't admit his mistake, then Father-in-law Lu, Father-in-law Huang, Qi Dazhu, Zhu Qi and others will all die:
"As long as you admit your mistake later, everyone will be saved."
The first advantage of admitting mistakes is that you can save everyone. What is the second advantage of admitting mistakes?
"You have sinned, and the emperor will not make atonement for you, and will make an exception and transfer you to imperial academy ..."
Not only that, Harry will pass the imperial examination, become a scholar in serious courses, and make a good story. After all, Harry is only a juren at present, and the temptation is still quite big.
Jiajing emperor punched out this one, which also showed his attitude towards Harry:
Admitting that Harry is an honest official is tantamount to admitting that he can't be bought by money, and this time it's not for money. Being an official is nothing more than several purposes, either for money or for fame. Harry is an honest official. Naturally, it's not for money, so it's for fame. Since he wants fame, he will give you a name.
But unexpectedly, Harry refused. ...
Third,
Harry replied a few words:
First of all, he said he didn't want to implicate others. As he said before, he was not instructed by anyone. If the emperor insists on implicating those people, I can't help it.
Secondly, I, Harry, don't just want the emperor to do what the sage said, that is, Mencius said, "the people are the most important, the country is the second, and the monarch is the least."
In the end, Harry is not afraid of death. I hope the emperor will think more about the people of the world, not my personal problems.
Now the eunuch named Shi was dumbfounded. This is a fool. The emperor even taught Harry how to admit his mistakes. He just refused to admit his mistake. There is no choice but to ask the emperor to do it himself.
Many people can't understand this paragraph. The man in black is talking to Harry. Did Harry see through that this man is the emperor?
In fact, Harry is an idealist, but he is not stupid. A group of eunuchs came, surrounded by a man in black, whose clothes still didn't show rank. Throughout the Ming Dynasty, only Emperor Jiajing wore court clothes and cotton shirts outside. Although Harry has never seen the emperor, he has been in the officialdom for a long time, and it is impossible not to know the emperor's dress preferences. After all, all the little eunuchs in the palace know.
Anyone who can go in and out of prison at will is designated as the royal family without wearing official clothes. It's too late for Yu Wang to avert suspicion. How dare he follow the eunuch named Shi to see Harry in tandem?
More importantly, the men in black sat and were carried into the palace. You know, the people who came in here either walked in or were carried in lying down, so they sat in it blatantly, and it was the first batch.
Of course, a word from Emperor Jiajing also exposed his identity. When Harry refused to refute his words, he forced Harry to speak, but Harry said nothing. He is very anxious:
"What great learning, there is a will, you must refute it."
Which official asked a question with a will, without saying it first, but rushed to the top and threw out a will directly? Harry is not stupid, and naturally understands that the people around him are Emperor Jiajing. Therefore, his replies were all playing dumb and deliberately telling Emperor Jiajing.
Fourth,
Harry is still too fierce. After some criticism, he sprayed the nosebleed of Emperor Jiajing. He left a word to Emperor Jiajing:
"I'll send you eight words:' No father, no gentleman, abandon your country and your home'!"
So is this sentence of Emperor Jiajing right?
1, fatherless, corresponding to what Harry mentioned earlier, he lost his father at the age of four and was raised by his mother. Emperor Jiajing said that he had no father. On the one hand, he means that he has no father. On the other hand, he also hinted that he had no orthodox education and lacked the discipline of his father.
But this is actually a blow to Harry. Although he had no father, Haimu never relaxed his education for Harry. In fact, there is a special foreshadowing in front of the plot, which was mentioned before when Haimu and Harry discussed Xiao Jing Zhang Jian.
2, there is no gentleman, the meaning of Emperor Jiajing is very clear, Harry doesn't have him as your father, and other officials are trying to move money to solve the housing problem for your father. As for Harry, he is disgusting, and he also published a book "Public Security", saying that "the world is not straight to your majesty for a long time", which is really not a gentleman. What's more, "the people are the most important, the country is the second, and the monarch is the light." Obviously, the emperor is put last, and there is no monarch in his eyes.
But in fact, Shanghai Rui doesn't understand it that way. The chapter of "The Book of Filial Piety" mentioned that if your father is at fault, he must remonstrate as a courtier. Harry did exactly what courtiers should do, but how did he become a gentleman in his eyes?
If it must be understood as "no monarch", then the monarch is a minister, because "monarch" is not like "monarch", which makes Hai Rui seem to be remonstrating, but has become a "minister" in the eyes of Emperor Jiajing.
Abandoning the country, the so-called abandonment of the country by Emperor Jiajing, is actually that Harry neglected the overall situation and delayed state affairs for his own selfish desires. For example, in Zhejiang, he fought against Qianhu, Zheng He, He Maocai, and Hu Zongxian. Hu Zongxian, the tail from wagging the dog, didn't betray the party, didn't hit people when they were down, and rushed back. This is for the country. Zhao Zhenji successfully solved the corruption case in Zhejiang, without touching the state system. This is called learning from the old tricks.
Only you, Harry, can't tolerate sand in your eyes. You don't care about the big picture. Obviously, anti-Japanese is the first priority, but you still provoke Hu Zongxian; Obviously, it's not a strict time yet, but it must be turned upside down in Zhejiang. A confession is quite difficult for Emperor Jiajing; I could be an official in Beijing, but when I arrived in Beijing, I ran to Liubiju, disgusting the emperor. This is not abandoning national interests, but abandoning the country.
The so-called "country" of Emperor Jiajing is obviously equal to himself. In fact, Emperor Jiajing was not the whole country, nor did he represent the whole Ming Dynasty. Harry pointed out the disadvantages of the Ming Dynasty and hoped that the emperor could make decisions for the country, the people of the Ming Dynasty and the whole world. Can he say that he abandoned this country?
4, abandon home, these two words are best understood, Jiajing Emperor proposed it for his family, so that his friends will not be implicated, and I hope he can take the initiative to admit his mistakes. However, Harry's own coffin is ready, and he never regrets it. This is a complete disregard for his family's performance. After all, there is his mother, his wife, and the child in his wife's belly.
The book records:
"According to the governor of Guangdong Province. Harry's mother and wife arrived in Leizhou on June 24th. Prepare to cross the sea and return to Hainan Qiongzhou hometown. But Hai's wife was pregnant and gave birth in Leizhou. Because Harry is a guilty minister, according to the rules of the court, the government can't send a doctor to her. The sea wife stayed at the station for three days, and the fetus could not be born, and both mother and child were hopeless. "
Of course, this is also a god prophecy of Emperor Jiajing, and he is right. Harry did abandon his family in the end.
However, regarding the concept of "home", the two have different understandings. The reason why Harry remonstrated at this time was completely influenced by the disaster relief in Daxing County. There are so many small families waiting to be saved in the world that he is duty-bound. Of course, this is what he takes for granted.
After all, Harry did this for two purposes:
"I, Harry, came here only for two reasons: one is my Daming's country, and the other is my Daming's, the whole world is alive."
One is for the continuation of the Great Ming Dynasty, and the other is for the well-being of the people of the Great Ming Dynasty!
Therefore, Emperor Jiajing said that Hai Rui had "no father, no gentleman, and abandoned his country and home", which was both correct and incorrect. Different perspectives lead to different conclusions!
