Liu Yi shook his head first, then read out Zilu Wenqiang's original text.

Immediately he began to express his own comments, saying: "Zilu asked Confucius what is strong. The sage's answer can be described as incisive. The so-called strong is divided into north and south. If you educate people with a tolerant and gentle spirit, people will not be rude to me. Retaliation, this is the strength of the south, and people with high moral character have this strength.

And if you use weapons, armor and shields as a pillow, you can die after death. This is the strength of the north, and the brave and aggressive people have this kind of strength. Therefore, people with high moral character are gentle and do not follow the trend, this is really strong! Stay neutral and unbiased, this is really strong! It is really strong if the country's politics is peaceful and does not change its ambitions! When the country's politics are dark, it is really strong to insist on integrity and would rather die than change! "

When Liu Yi said this, many people nodded secretly.

Yes, it is already obvious which is stronger between the south and the north.

The strength of the north is nothing but the strength of being brave and aggressive. Is such strength really strong? No, this is wrong. A real strong person should have noble moral character, be able to be fair and just, and stick to his beliefs. Only such a person is the strong person respected by the saints.

Liu Yi said: "Just like in today's world, the Hu people have always been tyrannical, brave and ruthless, and the land of Wanghua in Guannei is far inferior to the Hu people. But in my Ming Dynasty, righteous people regard loyalty as armor, and etiquette and righteousness as sculls. , act with benevolence, and treat with righteousness, even if the barbarians are strong, the Han will not change their ways."

All Hanlin nodded one after another.

That's right, the strength of Hu people is only temporary, but I, Da Ming, is strong in loyalty, propriety and righteousness. What the sage said is strong, even if the Hu people are rampant for a while, isn't loyalty, propriety and righteousness still circulating? What does this mean?

Emperor Hongzhi listened and nodded secretly.

He agrees with this point. After all, he has been taught by Hongru since he was a child, and the four characters of loyalty, propriety and righteousness have long been engraved in his bones.

Liu Yi said: "Now that the Tatars are attacking Datong, Datong is in jeopardy. Your Majesty must be worried, but you don't have to worry too much. Even if the Hulu enter the pass, it will be nothing but the end of the crossbow. At that time, Your Majesty will issue an order to King Qin, and the army and horses in the world will gather in Yan Yun, these are all loyal people, and the Tatars are not a problem."

Many Hanlin still nodded, thinking it made sense.

But Emperor Hongzhi frowned slightly.

To be reasonable, the strength of the north and the south just now is justified.

But Liu Yi put this theory into the current practical problems. As the son of heaven, Emperor Hongzhi is not a fool. How could people defeat hundreds of thousands of Ming troops in Tumubao, and even captured the former Emperor Yingzong.

The situation in Datong is not optimistic. It is really inappropriate to force this at this time.

Emperor Hongzhi was full of worries, but there was a smile on his face: "There are some places in Liu Qing's house, and what he said makes sense..."

some places……

Liu Yi blushed, and chewed the words carefully. On the other hand, isn't it just that there are some things that don't make sense?

Your Majesty... This is scolding, but even though you are scolding, you still save Liu Yi a little face. Liu Yi blushed: "I don't know where there are mistakes or omissions in what I said just now. Your Majesty is wise and discerning. Please correct me."

He took it seriously.

For a Hanlin, some places are justified by smashing signs, so Liu Yi is a little unconvinced.

Emperor Hongzhi smiled: "The sage's words are very reasonable, but the actual situation cannot be generalized. The war in Datong is a big one. There are 100,000 soldiers and civilians in Datong Pass. Once the city is broken, the lives of the Tatars will be destroyed. Once the Datong pass is broken, the land of Yanyun in Hebei has no danger to defend from now on, and countless people will be reduced to the tiger's mouth. The armor of loyalty and the scull of propriety and righteousness, I also hope that they are useful, but I think that it is more necessary to rely on soldiers Use your life."

Liu Yi wanted to say something, but immediately, he was discouraged: "Yes, your majesty's words are also reasonable, but... your majesty, governing a country lies in cultivating virtue, not in..."

Emperor Hongzhi suppressed his hands, as if he didn't want to argue with him any further: "Liu Qing's family has worked hard."

Liu Yi had no choice but to bow down, nodded, and returned to the class obediently.

Emperor Hongzhi was not in the mood at all at this moment, and wanted to get up: "Do you have any other teachings, Zhu Qing?"

Shen Wen then looked at the Hanlin.

His Hanlin Bachelor is actually the most difficult to become, because the Imperial Academy, like the Metropolitan Procuratorate, has a lot of thorns, and it is very difficult to restrain and discipline.

All the imperial courts were silent, and some people silently mourned for His Majesty. His Majesty has recently changed his mind and started to trust the saint's principles. He no longer has the same trust as before.

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said, "Since that's the case, then today..."

"Your Majesty." Yang Tinghe stepped out of the class at this time: "I have something to say."

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Yang Tinghe. He was familiar with Zhan Shi in Zhan Shifu. This person was the prince's teacher. Emperor Hongzhi attached great importance to the education of the prince. Speaking of which, Emperor Hongzhi personally selected Yang Tinghe.

Emperor Hongzhi said, "Does Yang Qing have anything to say?"

Yang Tinghe said sternly: "Your Majesty is justifiably worried about Datong. The battle of Datong is related to the safety of countless people. Your Majesty has a kind heart. It's the prince's studies. The prince is the foundation of the country. If the foundation of the country is lost, shouldn't your majesty worry about it? The prince has stopped studying in the past two years, and the minister has nothing to teach him.

Prince, what's more, now the prince has not even come to participate in the lecture, if this continues, I'm afraid..."

He didn't go on.

Emperor Hongzhi stared deeply at Yang Tinghe.

He could see that Yang Tinghe was extremely disappointed with the prince.

Naturally, it is impossible for Yang Tinghe to be alone. What he represents is probably the opinion of many Hanlin scholars.

If you don't study, how can you do it?

Emperor Hongzhi was silent for a moment and did not speak. Outside, an eunuch rushed over: "Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness, break into the palace..."

The eunuch hasn't finished speaking yet.

Outside, there were hurried footsteps, Zhu Houzhao said: "Get out of the way."

The domineering letter fell, and Zhu Houzhao had entered the Chongwen Hall.

Behind him is Fang Jifan. Fang Jifan feels that he is quite stupid, and follows Zhu Houzhao back and forth. Sooner or later, it will not end well.

Emperor Hongzhi was taken aback, looking at Zhu Houzhao who was beaming with joy.

Zhu Houzhao looked around and saw Yang Tinghe kneeling on the ground.

There is also a stunned Hanlin.

With his hands behind his back, Zhu Houzhao probably understood what was going on.

He said loudly: "Father, I... have something to play."

"..."

This is a bit out of the ordinary.

Emperor Hongzhi was silent.

He actually felt that sometimes, although his son had no rules, he did nothing wrong.

In the past, he would definitely be furious, but now, he is more silent.

"His Royal Highness..." All the officials saluted Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao said: "Master Yang, is it right for you to sue me?"

Zhu Houzhao is a person who can't hide things in his heart.

This is a bit embarrassing.

Yang Tinghe was silent for a moment, and said: "The minister is the minister of Ming Dynasty, who is full of the king's salary, for the sake of the country and..."

"Why Sheji?" Zhu Houzhao was a little angry. He had been annoyed a few days ago, and his anger hadn't subsided: "Is it just for Sheji?"

This time, it was a big blow.

Hanlin felt that they were going to suffocate.

What are these words?

When I read the books of sages and sages, make meritorious deeds, establish virtues, and establish words, how come I become a lip-smacking.

"The Tatars attacked Datong, and you are still shaking your heads here, is this appropriate?"

In front of the Hanlin, Zhu Houzhao unceremoniously reprimanded Yang Tinghe.

Yang Tinghe became angry from embarrassment.

He is Qingliu, Qingliu shouldn't be afraid of the emperor and prince, otherwise... he will be accused by thousands of people.

He said solemnly: "His Royal Highness, please be careful, the minister is waiting here, teaching etiquette is for the common people of the world..."

Zhu Houzhao laughed: "Then the barbarians are here, what are your plans?"

Yang Tinghe couldn't help saying: "Chen...Chen...Chen is not a man..."

"You are not a man, so who is a man?"

This is a bit of a nonsense.

Yang Tinghe seemed to be forced into a corner, and the Hanlin people looked at Yang Tinghe with grief.

Zhu Houzhao said again: "I am worried about Datong's soldiers and civilians, and about the war in Datong. You are behind your back and speak ill of me. What is the reason?"

Yang Ting and Dayi said awe-inspiringly: "His Royal Highness, to resist the Tatars is not based on worries, but to cultivate virtue. If the king does not cultivate virtue, what can he use to resist the Tatars?"

Zhu Houzhao was a little confused.

This sentence...is very familiar. When I heard it before, I thought it had some truth, but now I hear it, it's really ironic.

Zhu Houzhao said: "No, to resist the Tatars, you need flying balls."

"Fly...fly ball..."

Everyone was in an uproar.

Everyone talks about cultivating virtue, but what they cultivate is the virtue of Confucius and Sage.

And His Royal Highness the Crown Prince actually said that it is ok without cultivating virtue, not a saint, but a flying ball...is...is this plausible?

Yang Ting was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood: "Where did your Highness hear the rumors, flying balls...what are they?"

Zhu Houzhao shouted: "The flying ball has kept you sitting here and discussing the Tao!" He took out the note in his sleeve: "There is an urgent report from Datong. The flying team raided the Tatar camp outside the city. Great victory!"

great victory...

All of a sudden, the Chongwen Hall became quiet.

Datong... actually won a great victory.

Yang Tinghe's face was pale, and he suddenly understood why His Highness the Crown Prince was so confident today.

He couldn't believe it. The Tatar cavalry was just outside the city of Datong. Even if it was a great victory, it couldn't have been done in just a few days... This is too unbelievable.

And Emperor Hongzhi's face sank, the word "great victory" seemed to resonate with his heart, he was still silently watching the quarrel between each other, but now, Emperor Hongzhi couldn't sit still: "Where is the victory? Take me to see!"

Without hesitation, Zhu Houzhao presented the note himself.

In the eyes of Emperor Hongzhi, these six words clearly came into view: "Fortunately, life is not disgraceful, great victory!"

…………

It was delivered at five o'clock on the eighty-fifth day.
