Zeng Dieu Quang Tieu persuaded Zhu Di but Zhu Di refused to listen, Ming Dynasty

To paraphrase Zweig’s famous saying Every choice of the historical protagonist The price has all been determined. Mention the direction as this name What is the first thing that comes to everyone’s mind? For most people in future generations Fang Xiaoru It's just an annotation of the term "Zhu Shi Clan" invented by Zhu Di But when Zhu Di killed Fang Xiaoru, Wouldn't have thought Go down with this knife Will cut off the Ming Dynasty's national works after more than 200 years About Fang Xiaoru’s death Centuries of controversy have just begun Jianwen four years key years in history The city of Nanjing in June was in chaos Fang Xiaoru sits quietly at home Waiting for the moment of arrest Three years ago Zhu Di raised troops in Beijing Resist Emperor Jianwen's policy of reducing vassal vassals Before sending troops Yao Guangxiao, his most trusted military advisor, knelt down and asked: The day Nanjing was destroyed Fang Xiaoru will definitely refuse to surrender Hope not to kill him Yao Guangxiao said meaningfully about killing Fang Xiaoru The seeds of reading in the world are gone After Zhu Di captured the city of Nanjing As expected, Fang Xiaoru neither escaped nor surrendered. After being imprisoned, Zhu Di repeatedly asked people to persuade him to surrender. Fang Xiaoru never obeyed In the end, Zhu Di was angered by his fierce words. sentenced to death However, there is no mention of the Zhu family in Ming history. The Zhu clan was first seen in the wild notes of Zhuzhi Mountain It is also mentioned in the Ming Dynasty Chronicles But there is no record in the official history But regardless of whether the incident involving the Zhu clan really happened or not, What's important Everyone in the world believes that Fang Xiaoru was killed as the ancestor And they all put this account on the Zhu family. The Pandora's box of history has been opened. After Fang Xiaoru's death His reputation for unyielding overshadows his reputation for knowledge But actually Knowledge is the basis of his fame When Zhu Yuanzhang was alive He summoned Fang Xiaoru twice Praise him as a talented artist But he was never appointed Lao Zhu’s public statement is that Leave the empire’s talents to future generations The actual reason to use it is Fang Xiaoru’s philosophy of political reform It is diametrically opposed to the political system established by Lao Zhu This is what Fang Xiaoru did during the reign of Zhu Yuanzhang The fundamental reason why civilization is useless if it is empty Fang Xiaoru’s teacher Song Lian It was basically idle after the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Later, he was implicated in the Hu Weiyong case. If it weren't for Prince Zhu Biao's intercession, Can't escape death But don't get me wrong Song Lianzhen is related to the Hu Weiyong case It's just an excuse for Lao Zhu to kill someone. In Zhu Yuanzhang’s view The concept of people governing the country advocated by the Song and Yuan Dynasties has become outdated. Since it's useless It is better to kill the provinces and cities To him, living human lives are just props. Fang Xiaoru’s political views Similar to his teacher Song Lian Advocate for benevolent people with lofty ideals He proposed the idea of ​​​​removing the king Want to make people king Be trained to become a sage with equal emphasis on morality and wisdom Scholars have read several books of Mencius I thought he could tame the monarch In Lao Zhu's opinion, it's a joke The result of political differences is Fang Xiaoru has been on the bench for more than ten years When Zhu Yuanzhang died in 1398 42-year-old Fang Xiaoru Has been working as a professor of Hanzhong Fu Xue for 6 years My heart is full of depression Later, Zhu Yuanzhang's successor Zhu Yunwen came to the throne. Era Jianwen Zhu Yuanzhang's reign title is Hongwu Zhu Yunwen's reign title Jianwen Contradiction between era names Already revealed new monarch Want to take a completely different route from Zhu Yuanzhang So Fang Xiaoru, an underappreciated scholar, Finally waited for his great responsibility So people also Emperor Jianwen summoned and appointed Empress Fang Xiaoru Because the monarch and his ministers have the same three views, they are in the same mood. Almost all important documents between North Korea and China All drafted by Fang Xiaoru to some extent Fang Xiaoru became the spokesperson of the new emperor Driven by Fang Xiaoru Zhu Yunwen is determined to carry out political reform through routine witnessing At this time, the shortcomings of literati in politics were completely exposed Politicians come out to engage in politics All reforms must be realistic And literati engaged in politics It’s easiest to fall into the trap of idealism Confucian intellectuals’ expectations for an ideal world not in the future But in the past this ideal world Named after Confucius under the guise of Zhou Dynasty Many scholars naively think that Just restore ancient records The ideal will come true Raising troops in Zhu Di During the four years since the Jingnan campaign was launched, Fang Xiaoru and his loyal follower Zhu Yunwen To reform the government according to Zhou Zhi show great enthusiasm They spend all day studying how to retro Build provincial palace Change the name of the city gate There are also plans to restore the well-field system Where did Zhu Di's army hit? It was never their first concern Until Zhu Di's army came to Nanjing, Only then did Zhu Yunwen wake up from his sleepwalking state. At that time, Zhu Di's lone army escaped from the cracks of the imperial army. Rushed to the gates of Nanjing The territory actually controlled is actually very small. Most of China is still under the orders of the imperial court If Zhu Yunwen abandons the city, Implement strategic shift It is absolutely possible to order the armies of the world to counterattack Zhu Di So his ministers persuaded him to leave. Plotting for a comeback But Fang Xiaoru actually persuaded Zhu Yunwen to die in Sheji This is so pedantic. Missed the last chance to make a comeback Zhu Yunwen even made himself disappear Zhu Di directly announced the death of the young emperor Take over the power of the empire It can be said It was Fang Xiaoru’s political naivety that caused Zhu Yunwen so much After Zhu Di came to power Change the era that Zhu Yunwen changed again He restored the key torture methods of Zhu Yuanzhang's period Worse than anything Later commentators believed that Fang Xiaoru had a tough attitude. angered Zhu Di That would lead to death The person who said this really doesn’t understand Zhu Di very well. Thoughts on the late Ming and early Qing dynasties Homesick Huang Zongxi said Zhu Di was mean by nature Unless Fang Xiaoru surrenders Otherwise there will be no way to survive Here at Zhu Di How can there be any neutral and moderate opposition? They're all damn traitors. Zhu Di is a politician The characteristic of politicians is that the purpose is greater than the means As long as the purpose can be achieved It doesn’t matter whether the means are dirty or not. After Zhu Di seized the throne with force, He can only prove his legitimacy through cruel means About the death of Fang Xiaoru The earliest record comes from Fengtian Jingnan Ji This is an official product of the Yongle court Tools to clean yourself up Not very reliable In the book, Fang Xiaoru is ugly and turned into a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. A coward begging for mercy He begged Zhu Di for pardon but failed and was killed. if that's really the case Fang Xiaoru is not worthy either It has been remembered by later generations of Confucian scholars for hundreds of years. Zhu Di knew that killing people was not enough Still need to punish It’s not just about physically annihilating a person’s body What’s more, we must destroy this person’s thoughts mentally. then The writings of Fang Xiaoru and his disciples were all banned All will be burned There was an official named Zhang Pu If you have it at home, you will laugh as if you are sick. After his colleague Yang Shan found out, Go report it immediately As a result, Yang Shan was promoted Zhang Pu was directly executed This already has the bloody atmosphere of literal prison It was illegal to talk about Fang Xiaoru in the entire Yongle Dynasty. Unless according to the official caliber Treat Fang Xiaoru as a traitor who keeps wagging his tail criticize Until Zhu Di's death Ming Renzong Zhu Gaochi succeeded to the throne This situation has changed Zhu Gaochi commented many times that Fang Xiaoru, Qitai and others feared the power of loyal ministers After this Only the scholar-bureaucrats dared to fight for Fang Xiaoru’s vindication The process of rehabilitation is long To the thirteenth year of Wanli The emperor rehabilitated Fang Xiaoru in an official way for the first time. At this time, 183 years have passed since Fang Xiaoru was martyred. And the Ming Dynasty also grew from a new powerful empire Heading towards lifeless old age People in the late Ming Dynasty recall Fang Xiaoru’s integrity It was to express dissatisfaction with the political situation at that time. Because in the late Ming Dynasty, officials generally only knew how to talk. encounter changes Run faster than anyone else After Li Zicheng captured Beijing City The last number one scholar in the Ming Dynasty Open your mouth and shut up Yang Tingjian who would rather die than become a thief Kneel down in the mud Long live Li Zicheng three times Then I dared to get up Later Yang Tingjian had a fierce dispute with another Ming Dynasty official To write an edict for Li Zicheng’s accession to the throne Two people fighting together My clothes were torn Ji Liuqi, a historian in the late Ming Dynasty, wrote about this scene Thinking of Fang Xiaoru, the ancestor of Ningzhu Nor did he draft the history of the imperial edict for Zhu Di. Comments on Dao Ming Dynasty's last days of people forgetting justice and forgetting their righteousness All moral integrity is gone This is Zhu Di's retribution for killing his loyal ministers. Scholars all over the world Really just burying your head in learning Don't ask about right or wrong But please stay alive More than 200 years later Just in time What Yao Guangxiao specifically told Zhu Di If you kill him, all the seeds of reading in the world will be wiped out. When I read the history of Ming Dynasty, I often feel A lot of chaos in the late Ming Dynasty The roots can all be traced back to the time when Taizu became an ancestor. Ming and Qing dynasties It completely turned the world into the private property of the emperor. It is private property Just consider your own interests Rather than worrying about the life and death of people in the world then Only an emperor who doesn’t understand management is extremely selfish Treat human life as a worthless prop Throw it away after use Respect is mutual The emperor does not cherish his subjects people underneath There is no sense of the coexistence of the family and the country. Empress Wu of Donglin Party in the late Ming Dynasty Yao and Shen changed He became a minister of the Qing court again Very few martyrs As the saying goes, the way of heaven is reincarnation Who will God spare? Later generations respected Fang Xiaoru It's also because of his moral integrity rather than his political means in actual political life Fang Xiaoru’s ability, courage and practice There are obvious shortcomings Far inferior to Zhang Juzheng of later generations We yearn for moral integrity Because this is how our nation can be forged Thousands of years of culture have been inherited between heaven and earth The key to never interrupting Later generations respect Fang Xiaoru’s death In that case He can only die That is the real Fang Xiaoru But I often feel sorry for his death 600 years have passed the orthodoxy he defended The succession order of the throne of the old Zhu family that he maintained has long become worthless What he clings to at the cost of the lives of his entire family It turned out to be very ridiculous throughout the bloody incident Only the spirit of perseverance is meaningful And there is no point in clinging to something If Fang Xiaoru were like Bruno two hundred years later, die for truth Instead of dying for imperial authority and orthodoxy that would be nice
