Chapter 511 Your Majesty Knows To Treat Them As Human!
After Zhao Nanxing and Qian Yiben asked this question, Gu Xiancheng's expression became more dignified.
But Gu Xiancheng couldn't deny that what Qian Yiben said was true.
He really should know the truth about An Xifan and others being killed.
Because, if it is said that the emperor is calling the wind and rain in the court, then he is now calling the wind and rain in the scholar forest.
Therefore, he would not be ignorant of the inside story about anything related to Qingliu civil servants, and he might even be more aware than Jin Yiwei.
Gu Xiancheng had no choice but to truthfully say: "This matter, you'd better not ask any more questions, the matter of poisoning is just Jin Yiwei's one-sided opinion!"
"What kind of talk is that!"
"Our family can't agree with what Uncle Shi said."
At this time, Zhang Jing pretended to lose his composure and stood up first, and continued to say:
"My Mr. Su (An Xifan) has always been the gentleman I admire the most. Yue Gong and others are also outspoken ministers, which is admirable. How could he lose his life without knowing it?"
"How could they not ask about their deaths! Even if the cats and dogs they only knew died, they must know the reason."
"According to the new etiquette, ordinary people treat them like children, let alone Mr. Su and other gentlemen?"
After speaking, Zhang Jing looked at the crowd: "Could it be that we are only expressing regret, but in our hearts we don't regard Mr. Su and others as friends at all?!"
"The father-in-law said so."
"I'm not as good as my father-in-law!"
Zhao Nanxing followed suit, and then looked at Gu Xiancheng:
"Uncle Shi, what is the truth about Mr. Su's sudden death? Others don't need to ask, but we have to ask, otherwise how can we be friends?"
"Yes, Your Majesty has ordered Jin Yiwei to investigate strictly. Even if Your Majesty takes my Mr. Su seriously, are we really so cold-blooded and let them die in vain?"
Qian Yiben followed up with a question.
Meng Yanghao also said: "This is indeed the way of not being a friend. Today we don't ask me the cause of Mr. Su's death. If we do this in the future, who will ask us?"
Gu Xiancheng looked at these three people, knowing that he would lose the hearts of scholars if he didn't say anything, so he could only sigh and say:
"Forget it, I do know at this point."
"who is it?"
Zhao Nanxing hurriedly asked.
Zhang Jing also straightened his chest and listened attentively.
Gu Xiancheng said: "Mr. Dongquan!"
"Why did he do that?"
Qian Yiben hurriedly asked a question at this time.
Gu Xiancheng said: "Mr. Dongquan's original intention was good. He was afraid that the treacherous party would take advantage of the Chu king's rebellion and Wu Gong's affairs to make a big case, and be banned by the party. He thought that first, let the colleagues who had already spoken for Wu Gong be shut down forever. Mouth, this is also for the peace of scholars in the world!"
"Uncle Shi is really confused."
At this time, Meng Yanghao said something, and said: "How can you know about this kind of thing and not report it?"
Zhao Nanxing asked Gu Xiancheng: "How did Uncle Shi know?"
Gu Xiancheng said: "Mr. Dongquan hoped that I would not use my reputation among scholars to delve into this matter, so he told me frankly. Mr. Meizhou who went to Myanmar can prove it."
"This Shi Dongquan is really bad-hearted! In the past, when it came to subscribing for the coupons, he was duplicity, but now he is doing vicious and despicable things, which is not surprising!"
Qian Yiben couldn't help criticizing Shi Xing at this moment.
Zhao Nanxing also said: "He still underestimated the Son of Heaven, thinking that the Son of Heaven would not ask more questions because of the sudden death of a subject he hated, so he dared to do so! But in fact, His Majesty is much more affectionate than him!"
As Zhao Nanxing spoke, he accused Gu Xiancheng, saying: "Uncle Shi was obviously blinded by the family's private schemes, and he didn't treat the emperor fairly, so that he also thought that the emperor would not ask, but in fact, the emperor has always been true. Treating the people of the world as human beings, if the case of Li Zhi had not been exposed, there would be a large number of unjust, false and wrongly decided cases; nor would the case of Li Sancai have organized others and banned the party! So, how could the emperor really sit in peace, Yue, etc. The public was poisoned and killed without asking?"
"That's why I said uncle was confused!"
"Such a thing is known but not reported. Is it because you don't treat Mr. An, Yue and others as friends, or ignore the facts and treat Your Majesty as a foolish emperor, and for the sake of the superficial peace of Shilin, you don't hesitate to cover up the traitors."
Meng Yanghao then talked about Gu Xiancheng.
Gu Xiancheng blushed, held his breath in his chest for a long time, and stood up suddenly, glaring at Zhao Nanxing and Meng Yanghao.
They are the ones who are obviously humiliating themselves, but now they are the ones being criticized, how can Gu Xiancheng bear it?
Seeing Gu Xiancheng standing up suddenly, Zhang Jing hurriedly asked him: "Uncle Shi, what happened?"
Then, Zhang Jing persuaded: "It is inevitable that there will be harsh words among friends, so don't worry about it."
Only then did Gu Xiancheng pile up a blunt smile: "What you said is that I was at fault in this matter, and I am sorry for An, Yue and the others."
"Uncle, don't blame yourself too much. In fact, I didn't go anywhere with high morals. As Mr. Jinxi said, the family's private schemes are too heavy, so that they only care about protecting the same family, and don't care about right and wrong. That's why we are in today's situation. I was imprisoned by the Son of Heaven and taught a lesson."
"Uncle Shi might as well tell the Son of Heaven about this fact in his own book. Although Shi Dongquan is a respected servant, he must have the wisdom of the Son of Heaven and would not favor him. In this way, he is worthy of An, Yue and the others."
Qian Yiben also persuaded Gu Xiancheng at this time.
Gu Xiancheng smiled sarcastically, and then said: "What Qixin said is that I will publicize this matter at the meeting."
"That's good."
Qian Ben said with a smile.
Gu Xiancheng changed the subject at this time, came out and pointed to a pair of couplets in his Donglin Hall and said:
"Just now Qixin mentioned that he was taught a lesson in the Imperial Prison. I have also heard for a long time that today's emperor ordered the great Confucianism to give lectures in it to criticize the current problems. I just don't know if it is in line with my Donglin Hall?"
"The sound of the wind and rain, the sound of reading, the sound of reading, family affairs, state affairs, world affairs, and everything concerned."
Zhang Jing came out to read first, and then said: "I know about this, if the Donglin Party can be like the prison, quasi-dissenting opinions appear, and it is clear that he is not a person with perfect morals, he is willing to correct himself The point of view is the same.”
When Gu Xiancheng heard what Zhang Jing said, his face became unhappy.
That night.
Zhang Jing immediately asked someone to send a secret report to Beijing, telling Zhu Yijun who was the one who poisoned An Xifan, Yue Yuansheng and others.
Gu Xiancheng himself wrote the report to expose the matter, but when he handed it over to his younger brother Gu Yuncheng to send someone to Beijing, he hesitated again.
Gu Yuncheng asked, "What are you hesitating about, brother?"
"When this book is published, my reputation will be greatly damaged!"
"In the future, people all over the world will know sooner or later that I, Gu Xiancheng, did my best as a friend because of the persuasion of Zhao, Qian and others, or because of the persuasion of an eunuch. In this way, my prestige will plummet, but the emperor's prestige will be greatly increased. If not, how can I enter the imperial court again in the future?"
Gu Xiancheng said.
Gu Yuncheng nodded and said: "Zhao Mengbai and Qian Qixin entered the imperial prison, and they seemed to be different people all of a sudden. This made my brother in a dilemma, and he had to damage his reputation. Speaking of which, he is really too smart today!"
"Yes!"
"What I am more worried about is that the view that the holy will is the will of heaven and the lord is the sage advocated by Shen Shixing and others is really accepted by the world. If this is the case, the lord and the sage cannot be separated, and it cannot be like the country of Taixi. People are in charge of common affairs, and people are sages who understand rituals and laws."
Gu Xiancheng said again.
Gu Xiancheng was influenced by the Western thoughts brought by the Western missionaries in this era, and he always wanted to separate church and state, that is, the human master and the human saint are relatively independent, and it is even better for the human saint to control the human master.
And he becomes that man.
But now Gu Xiancheng finds it more and more difficult, and even the gentlemen in Shilin are not very convinced to him.
Gu Yuncheng nodded at this moment and didn't say much.
Here, Gu Xiancheng still gave Gu Yuncheng the book of exposing Shi Xing: "It's better to submit it, lest someone take the initiative to flatter the emperor and bring disaster to my Gu family."
"it is good!"
Many days later.
Zhu Yijun did receive three secret reports to expose Shi Xing, one was delivered by Zhang Jing, one was delivered by Gu Xiancheng, and the other was delivered by Zhao Nanxing.
After receiving Zhao Nanxing's secret report, Zhu Yijun smiled, and said to Zhang Yue: "This Zhao Nanxing still wants to improve, let the officials find a chance to recover him!"
