Chapter 182 Thunder enters the sea
The heart that the Ming officials raised in their throats finally came to the ground.
Yun Zhao understood their feelings. Mobilizing the whole people to oppose corruption can play a good role in the beginning. If it is maintained for too long, cruel officials like Zhou Xing and Lai Junchen will appear in the Ming Dynasty.
It will push things from one extreme to another.
Back then, Wu Zetian used this method. She established a copper jar in the capital, and everyone in the world has the right to write a letter, including prisoners.
It was Wu Zetian who used this thing to completely cleanse the power of Li Tang, and then achieved the goal of holding power.
Yun Zhao's purpose is different from Wu Zetian. His purpose is to eliminate scum in the official ranks. After achieving the goal, it must end quickly. Otherwise, he will suffer the sequelae of mobilizing the whole nation to oppose corruption.
Now, the emperor has demonstrated the seriousness of the audit work and the punishments that corruption will bear, and has achieved the purpose of education and saving people.
"Your Majesty's thunder suddenly rose, and the sky was full of glory. Under the power of the sky, all things were panicked, and the murderous momentum had already formed. All beasts were moaning and the people were panicked. Then the lightning entered the sea, like a long dragon hidden in the sea, green light appeared at the level of the sea, colorful condensed in the sky, red sun hanging high, and grace for all things."
"Your Majesty's political methods have reached the point of perfection. It is really difficult to be a minister under such an emperor. He has high requirements and has given too few things. I guess after all the officials were beaten by this stick, sweet dates are not far away."
"Yes, the first group of officials had ideals greater than heaven. They did not value enjoyment much and worked wholeheartedly for their ideals. However, the later officials did not experience the cruel life of Zhu Ming in the late years.
Many people naturally believe that they should enjoy the good life now.
Therefore, after doing things, you have to pay back.
The officials' mood has changed a lot. This is an irreversible state of mind. Your Majesty will definitely not go against the current and will not continue to ask the officials to make sacrifices and sacrifices blindly.
After this incident, Your Majesty will definitely re-develop the charter, and this time it should be beneficial to the officials.
I just don’t know how Your Majesty is preparing to reward those officials who have made meritorious service.”
Descartes sat opposite Xu Yuanshou, and the two of them drank tea from the evening until the bright moon rose into the sky.
In just one year, Mr. Descartes' life has completely become the lifestyle of the Ming people, especially tea, which has become an indispensable favor in his life.
Xu Yuanshou changed the tea for Mr. Descartes again and chuckled, "Sir, I have been in the Ming Dynasty for more than a year. I just heard what Mr. said. Xu thought that Mr. had already had a deep understanding of the Ming Dynasty."
Mr. Descartes sipped a sip of fragrant tea and said with a smile: "It's far behind. The more you know, the more you will be in ignorance."
Xu Yuanshou laughed and said, "Oh, why did you say this sir?"
Mr. Descartes stood up, looked at the bright moon in the sky with his hands behind his back and whispered: "God has a great favor for you [ www.biqugetv.co], and has given you the best land, the best people, and the best emperors.
And the war in my hometown has revived, religious wars, wars between emperors and new forces, wars caused by hatred, and even wars between new nobles and old nobles...
In Europe, everyone is expanding their military equipment like a madman. The combined fleet of the Dutch and the Portuguese Spanish will compete with the British fleet in the North Sea, with an unprecedented scale...
Everyone's heart is full of hatred, and everyone has an enemy that must be killed...
They only want the enemy to die, and only the enemy's corpses can calm the anger in their hearts. There is no negotiation, no concession, no compromise, no love between people, and no view of the best quality God has given to the world - mercy!
Man returns to the beast, and an individual is surviving with instinct and using instinct to prevent any attacks he may encounter.
Europe is no longer saved.”
Xu Yuanshou also stood up, stood in the moonlight with Mr. Descartes, pointing to the moon and said, "If Mr. Descartes had come to the Ming Dynasty twenty years ago, you wouldn't have said that. Twenty years ago, the Ming Empire was still in the darkest period in history.
The bones are exposed in the wild, no rooster crows thousands of miles away, lice are born in the armor, the plague covers ghosts cry at night, the elderly abandon the wilderness, the strong are wandering around to survive, the people change their children and eat, starves are everywhere, bandits are rampant, wild dogs are in groups, kind people have no place to stand, and kind people have no words to open their eyes...
Twenty years later, the Ming Dynasty has become the place of prosperity today, this is the so-called image of the yin and yang and yin of the yang and yin of the yang.
All the knowledge in the world is the same principle. Now Europe has entered a dark period. I think the era of light has been nurtured by darkness at this time. In the near future, light will surely cover Europe and the world will be filled with a bright world."
Descartes bowed to Xu Yuanshou and said, "Thank you to auspicious words, I also hope that Europe can survive this long night and usher in the bright sunshine. However, Europe is different from the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty had too long history and too many power schemes. The theory that long-term division will lead to unity and separation will lead to separation has long been deeply rooted in people's hearts.
This is not the case in Europe. They have never had the concept of great unification. Compared with great unification, they believe more in the benefits that their eyes can see. Many times, they do not believe in anyone except themselves.
They doubt anyone, too.
They believe that the purpose of every outsider approaching them is to plunder them, exploit them, and persecute them.
They do not believe that there is a mind that can accommodate all rivers. Although many such people have appeared in Europe, they still do not believe that they doubt everything, question everything, and guard against everything.
They are more obstructive than people everywhere, and they are more alert than people everywhere.
It is because of this that it is more difficult for them to welcome the light than those in other places, and they pay more."
Xu Yuanshou thought for a moment and said, "Since that's the case, sir's responsibility is even heavier. You need to cultivate the spark for Europe in the peaceful East. I believe that hope will always be there after the torch is passed down."
Mr. Descartes nodded and invited Xu Yuanshou to return to the front of the tea table and held a cup of tea ceremony: "Since that is the case, I wonder if Yushan Academy can open a door for European students?"
Xu Yuanshou shrugged and said, "The purpose of Yushan Academy is to have education but not distinguish."
Mr. Descartes said: "Since that's the case, why are there nearly 40,000 students in such a large Yushan Academy? Why are there only two European students, Descartes and Emily?"
Xu Yuanshou laughed and said, "Yushan Academy is simple and closed, and is not known to Europeans."
Mr. Descartes laughed and said, "Since that's the case, how about letting us spread our attention to Yushan Academy in Europe?"
