Chapter 386: Scholars queued up to commit suicide wake up!

Chapter 386: Cruise in and commit suicide, the scholar wakes up!

Wu Weiye now wants to kill Liu Hongxun.

And it's a bit uncontrollable.

Therefore, his eyes when he looked at Liu Hongxun now were full of fire!

His family has long been liquidated in Sichuan because of their submission to the pseudo-dynasty, and land stores and other industries have been detained.

Now that the court has not pursued him, he feels contented and naturally does not dare to complain.

But this resulted in only part of his property in Beijing.

But now he handed over all these property to Liu Hongxun and bought Wang's stocks. However, Liu Hongxun now told his stock price that it had fallen sharply, and it fell to a situation that was worse than Baochao!

This undoubtedly shows that the stocks in his hand are just a pile of waste paper. Then Wu Weiye obviously will live a life of eating porridge with his family, and he can no longer go to Fengyue Tower and watch the stars and the moon with his confidante, from poetry, songs and essays to philosophy of life.

Therefore, Wu Weiye is now angry with Liu Hongxun and hates Liu Hongxun for cheating him.

But Wu Weiye finally resisted the rush to kill Liu Hongxun.

After all, he is a literati, so it's okay to start writing and scolding people.

He still dared not kill someone.

So, Wu Weiye just left Liu's house silently.

He needs to be quiet now.

Wu Weiye walked towards the river outside Yongding Gate.

These days, there were many officials, gentry, Confucian scholars who jumped into the river outside Yongding Gate.

They either fell silent about the situation in the world because of the complete failure of the Southern Pseudo-Dynasties, which restored the ancestral system and the status of Neo-Confucianism and Neo-Confucianism, and believed that after the great changes in the world, they would not be able to return to the era when the scholars and officials could bully the common people at will and committed suicide by jumping into the river and committing suicide because of the sudden sharp drop in recent times, the stock price of the Wang family could not stand this blow, so they wanted to die to avoid Gao Zhu's debt, or both.

The financial activity of speculating on Wang Family Stocks has been prevalent among the people of the Ming Dynasty during this period, and almost occurred at the same time as the rebellion in the south.

It was just because the court mainly focused on suppressing the rebellion in the south and clearing up internal opposition to reform and implementing new systems, so it was too late to pay attention to such private financial activities.

In addition, most of the wealthy and powerful businessmen involved in this financial activity were rich and powerful, and these people seemed to be deliberately concealing it and did not want the court to participate in this matter.

Therefore, this financial activity of speculating on Wang Family stocks has been happening.

What's more, the intervention of the imperial court also requires an opportunity.

Now the West Factory intervened in this matter, and it was only after Li Fuming took the initiative to confess that he used two million taels of military funds to speculate on Wang's stocks that he took the initiative to investigate Wang Dasai who issued Wang's stocks.

As a result, the Wang family's mysterious disappearance directly caused the Wang family to fall sharply.

This caused the two bureaucrats Liu Hongxun and Wu Weiye to suffer heavy losses.

"Get out of the way! I am the Taichang Temple Master, who is higher than you, so let me jump first!"

Due to the dual political and economic failures, there are many bureaucrats and scholars who have committed suicide by jumping into the Yongding River, which can almost be described as queuing. So when Wu Weiye was about to jump, an elderly official who claimed to be the Taichang Temple Chief pushed him away, and then stood on the bridge first, shouting to the sky: "From now on, Neo-Confucianism will be gone!"

After saying that, the Taichang Temple Chief jumped down with a plop.

Wu Weiye was very excited by the behavior of the Taichang Temple Master. He couldn't help but admire the Taichang Temple Master's spirit of dedication to Neo-Confucianism. When he thought that he had been staying in this dark court that did not take Neo-Confucianism as the body and did not govern the country with virtue. Now, because of the corruption of the hearts of the world, his family was exhausted and full of debt, so he was ready to commit suicide. He thought that he had devoted himself to Neo-Confucianism, so he shouted: "Neo-Confucianism is difficult to prosper, and benevolence is difficult to survive, so it is better to leave!"

"Hmph! What does Xing Neo-Confucianism do? Is it necessary to continue to let hypocrites like Wang Wenkui and Zhao Shichun harm the scholars and people all over the world?!"

"This kind of old and old school should be returned to the deep mountains of the study, rather than being used by villains as a tool to make money and make money!"

"You guys obviously committed suicide because they could not rely on the promotion of Neo-Confucianism to take power, but they insisted that they were not prosperous and the world was in great trouble and could not commit suicide! In my opinion, you hypocrites were all dead, and no one regretted them!"

Because Lu Zhangzu, who was transferred back to Beijing to serve in the Ministry of War, heard what Wu Weiye said before he was about to jump into the river, he couldn't help but spray it.

Wu Weiye was furious after hearing this and turned to look over: "How dare you say we are hypocrites?"

"If a true gentleman is, why should he abandon his country and the king?"

Lu Zhangzu asked directly.

Wu Weiye couldn't say that the country in front of him was not what he wanted, and just asked: "I think you are also a civil servant. Do you like the current situation?"

"Why don't you like it? I like it very much now!"

Lu Zhangzu replied without hesitation and concluded directly: "This is the age of fair governance!"

Wu Weiye was quite angry after hearing this: "How can you say that? How can this be the world of great governance? People's hearts are not as old as the world's winds are getting worse, from kings, princes, ministers, and people, everyone is despised and valued profit, and has no distinction between high and low, without any of the ancient saints! Such a country is forbidden to be rampant, and demons are in power!"

Lu Zhangzu shook his sleeves and sneered: "It is obvious that he didn't go to the pseudo-official court in the south at that time. He didn't see him, Wang Wenkui and Zhao Shichun, how bad people are, and he had such an idea. I used to be like you, and I thought there was a real place where the wise men came, gentlemen gathered, and morally noble. But when I went there, I found that it was full of money. I opened my mouth and kept filial piety, forcing people to starve to death, and forcing scholars like me to live like grass. It would be better if this world of restoration of Neo-Confucianism was not restored!"

Lu Zhangzu's words still made him very excited.

So after Lu Zhangzu left, Wu Weiye no longer wanted to commit suicide. Instead, he subconsciously seemed to believe what Lu Zhangzu said, because he could feel that the hatred of Lu Zhangzu towards the pseudo-official in the eyes of Lu Zhangzu was not pretending, but real hatred, just like the look he saw when he saw the boatman along the river looking at the evil officials along the way when he left Sichuan.

Lu Zhangzu was indeed educated by the iron fist of Neo-Confucianism, and now he was very clear-headed, especially when he found that he could be promoted by returning to the court and doing things seriously. Even after many rebels were captured, he could immediately eat enough relief food for fullness. He became more confident that he had been wrong before. Restoring Neo-Confucianism was a destruction of the world, and Daxing of practical learning was creating a prosperous era again.

Now, Lu Zhangzu completely gave up the fantasy of imagining that the scholars and officials in the past could enslave the Han people and live a generous life of superiors, and became a firm supporter of reform and reform.

After Wu Weiye gave up suicide, he returned to the capital city. He and his relatives and powerful officials came to the city to lose their money by the Wang family's stocks and came to Fuque, Xiyuan, crying and begging the emperor to uphold justice for them.

Because they lost so much this time.

When they thought that investing in Wang's stocks would make a fortune, they did not want the court to get involved, but now they realized that Wang's stocks were a big scam, they naturally hoped that the court would uphold justice for them.

These royal relatives and powerful bureaucrats are like giant babies. They reject the imperial power when they think it is profitable and do not want the court and the emperor to know that they are making money. Just like before, they did not want the emperor to know that overseas trade is making more money, they only let the emperor and the court compete with the peasants.

But when he suffered a loss, he hoped that the imperial power could uphold justice for them, so he started crying and asked the court to take charge, without thinking of being responsible for his actions.

One of the problems that Tianqi is facing now is whether it is to care about this matter, and therefore ask Zhang Gui, Han Yu, Yuan Keli and others: "You think, should the court care?"
