Chapter 636 If they don’t come, I will lead the army there!
Gao Ming is a long-established master of Confucianism, how can he be stumped by a mere script writer?
"Confucius said benevolence, Mencius said righteousness!"
"Love all, not attack, is the Mohist saying."
"Fools only know benevolence and righteousness, but don't know what benevolence is!"
Luo Guanzhong didn't panic when he heard the words, and answered in an orderly manner.
"The so-called benevolence means benevolence, righteousness and universal love."
"My Ming Dynasty is rich all over the world, and has hundreds of millions of people. I could have formed a unified system on my own. Why do I need to bully the weak and bully the poor and weak countries overseas?"
"Now he oppresses his monarch, so that he can't return home. He slaughters his people, but he doesn't punish him for his crimes."
"I don't know if such a great Ming still has a heart of benevolence and righteousness, and I don't know if all the princes in the court turned into tigers, leopards and wolves, dancing with animals. I only know that the poor and weak Wa country has not received the justice it deserves. I'm afraid it's not the chief assistant's intention, is it?"
Luo Guanzhong's words immediately aroused applause.
This is not only the thought of Luo Guanzhong, but also the thought of many scholars in Ming Dynasty.
In their view, Daming was already so rich, it would be too much to rob beggars of their jobs.
Luo Guanzhong's repeated fights directly pushed Gao Ming to the forefront.
If he admits that he means it, then he is like a tiger, leopard and jackal.If you don't admit it, you have to turn your back on yourself and convict Yan Yi again.
If he was re-convicted, execution and execution would be lenient. He might even be cut in half and his whole family would be exiled overseas.
But Gao Ming didn't want to succumb, and he didn't want to succumb to a mere script writer.
"Benevolence and righteousness should be divided among whom?"
"In the early years when Japanese pirates harassed our Daming and slaughtered our Daming villages, did anyone ever tell them benevolence and righteousness?"
"When the Japanese pirates slaughtered my Ming merchant ship, did anyone ever say benevolence and righteousness to those sailors who died in vain?"
"Now my soldiers of the Ming Dynasty just accidentally killed a few villagers of the Wa country, and you are so full that you jump out and talk about benevolence and righteousness. Don't you think it's ridiculous?"
"You eat the rice grown by the people of Ming Dynasty, and you don't want to benefit the people of Ming Dynasty, but uphold justice for the enemy. Have your consciences been eaten by dogs!"
As soon as Gao Ming said these words, the entire Imperial College fell silent.
Every scholar is thinking whether he is wrong, to uphold justice for an unworthy country.
Luo Guanzhong also fell silent, he suddenly remembered that Daming still had a deep blood feud with the Wa Kingdom.
In the early years, Japanese pirates invaded the southeastern coastal areas, and the Luo family also suffered greatly. How could he forget about this?
Just when Luo Guanzhong was frowning, the Emperor Ganren in the audience immediately roared.
"Mr. Luo, the Japanese pirates have nothing to do with me. The situation in my Japanese country is different from that of Ming Dynasty. The emperor has long been unable to restrain the local daimyo. The military affairs of the country are all in charge of the shogun."
"During my reign as emperor, I ordered many times to prohibit ronin warriors from going to sea, but no one listened to me..."
"I am very friendly to Daming, and I have always opposed ronin warriors to harass Daming..."
When Luo Guanzhong heard this, his eyes were filled with hope, but before he could speak, Gao Ming pushed him back.
"You can shut up!"
Gao Ming seemed to be speaking to Emperor Ganren, and Luo Guanzhong, who was about to speak, made both of them shut their mouths.
"Since ancient times, we have paid attention to not being in one's position, and not seeking to govern!"
"Since you are sitting in the position of the lord of the Japanese kingdom, you cannot restrain your subordinates. Apart from proving that you are useless, you can't prove anything!"
"Since you can't control it, why not let me, Daming, control it for you?"
"In this incident, General Yan Yi did have something wrong, and he acted too decisively. But General Yan Yi's actions also have the intention of setting the record for the Japanese Kingdom Chen Gang and re-establishing the rules."
"I hereby promise to you that General Yan is not the first, nor will he be the last. The other generals sent by my Ming Dynasty will follow General Yan's will and continue to set up rules for the country of Japan and let them know what It is the might of the heavens, the wrath of the kingdom!"
When Gao Ming said this, he not only changed his reputation, but also ignited the blood of many young scholars.
Especially the words of the power of the celestial dynasty and the wrath of the celestial dynasty instantly made their blood boil.
"Gao Shoufu said it well!"
"I will have the prestige of the upper kingdom tomorrow, and the little Japanese kingdom will have to bear it. I have no right to make irresponsible remarks to us!"
"We just want to establish rules for overseas vassals and let them know who is the father!"
"Wansheng pleads for General Yan's life, and asks the imperial court to spare General Yan's life!"
"General Yan is not guilty of death, please the court re-convict!"
Seeing the one-sided scene, Luo Guanzhong immediately understood that he was on the wrong team.
Fortunately, he has the ability to do it himself. Seeing that everyone has unanimously called for an apology to General Yan, he also followed suit and appealed with everyone.
"Gao Shoufu, today's debate is like enlightenment, and it made Wansheng realize how shallow he is."
"Since General Yan is promoting the power of the heaven and the wrath of the upper kingdom, then please re-convict Gao Shoufu, don't let the hearts of the expeditionary soldiers be chilled!"
When Gao Ming saw Luo Guanzhong changing so quickly, he almost got jumped by this guy.
Now that he had admitted his mistake, he couldn't hold on to it, so he could only pretend to be magnanimous and wave his hands.
"There are national laws, and there are family rules."
"Although General Yan is promoting the wrath of the Celestial Dynasty for our Ming Dynasty, the evidence of his secretly sharing the spoils of war and taking credit is conclusive. He has seriously violated the laws of the Ming Dynasty. It is not unfair at all to sentence him to death!"
"If everyone imitates him, how will my court of the Ming Dynasty control those arrogant soldiers?"
Although Gao Ming has made it clear that Yan Yi must die, scholars are all emotional, and still feel that Yan Yi's death is a bit wronged.
"Gao Shoufu, please be merciful!"
"Please be kind to me, Chief Minister!"
"We are willing to jointly sign a letter, begging His Majesty to protect the life of General Yan!"
Although Gao Ming was displeased when he saw people begging like this, he didn't refuse directly.
"Since you feel sorry for General Yan so much, please submit a joint letter to express your feelings. Your Majesty promises to hand it over to His Majesty, and His Majesty will make a decision!"
"Thank you, Chief Assistant Gao!"
Gao Ming left amidst the crowd of thanks, and felt a little erratic after getting into the carriage.
It feels so good to talk to someone!
If it weren't for my busy government affairs, I really want to come here every day to scold someone!
Although Gao Ming reversed the public opinion with his invincible words, the overseas vassal states jointly signed a letter, asking the Ming court to give justice to the Wa country, which still put a lot of pressure on the Ming court.
After all, at this stage, the Ming Dynasty has many business contacts with overseas feudal states.
If they offend these vassal states, although they will not turn against the sky, within a limited range, they still have the ability to add obstacles to Daming.
Therefore, after careful consideration, Gao Ming reported the matter to Zhu Yunxie, and let Zhu Yunxie make a judgment.
When Zhu Yunxi received the news, he was already outside Samarkand.
He stayed in Guihua City for a while, seeing that the situation in the country was stable, and no vassal king dared to jump out, so he crossed the Tianshan Mountains and came to Samarkand in the Western Regions.
Zhu Yunxi looked at the city walls of Samarkand that already had the style of the Ming Dynasty, with a helpless wry smile on his face.
"Who did it so cleverly!"
"A good historical city was destroyed by them!"
Kong Yanjin, who was accompanying him, smiled and said.
"Your Majesty, isn't this beautiful? It looks a lot more friendly."
Zhu Yunxi shook his head upon hearing this.
"You do not understand!"
"Culture is diverse, not stereotyped."
"The architecture of the Ming Dynasty has the beauty of the Ming Dynasty, and the architecture of the Western Regions has the beauty of the Western Regions."
"We can conquer here, rule here, but there's no need to change the aesthetic here."
"Many years later, our descendants will still rely on this building to prove that there once existed a civilization here, a civilized country no less than Ming Dynasty."
Kong Yanjin was awed when he heard this.
"Your Majesty's thinking is so lofty that a humble official can't reach it."
"If Your Majesty likes exotic buildings, then please ask local craftsmen to restore the appearance of this place for future generations to admire?"
Zhu Yunxi shook his head again.
"No need!"
"This is also history, and this also needs to be remembered!"
"Since my uncle has already engraved the imprint of Daming deeply on this land, let this imprint exist forever."
Zhu Yunxi's words confuse Kong Yanjin a bit, but this is not because of Kong Yanjin's poor IQ, but because they are standing at different heights.
Zhu Yunxi stands at the height of the world, so he hopes that the culture of the world can be more diversified and richer.
Kong Yanjin just stood on Daming's point of view, and naturally thought that everything about Daming was the best.
As everyone knows, different places have different customs.
The construction of the city wall in Samarkand also fully refers to the local topography and climatic conditions, a set of rules formed over thousands of years.
Sapphire's transformation of the city wall, not to mention that the defensive ability has dropped a bit, the appearance alone is much ugly, giving people a feeling of nondescript.
Before Zhu Yunxi entered the city, he first summoned a few Jinyiwei Qianhu in the city, and learned from them that everything was normal and no one was self-reliant, so he entered the city with peace of mind.
Lan Yu was in the bitter summer, wearing a pair of big underpants and sitting on a rattan chair, behind him stood two wrestlers waving fans to fan the wind.
Even so, Sapphire still felt that the heat was unbearable, so she couldn't help urging.
"Ice!"
"In such a big city, you can't even find a piece of ice?"
"Go back to the general, Bing...Bing has been found. There is it in the palace basement..."
"Then hurry up and bring it here, it makes me hot, and several layers of prickly heat have grown!"
Just as Sapphire was cursing, a young voice came from outside the door.
"Uncle, are you fat? Why are you so afraid of heat?"
Sapphire was taken aback when he heard the voice, and after a while, he asked tentatively.
"Didn't we have hallucinations, why did we seem to hear the voice of our nephew?"
The lieutenant beside Sapphire nodded upon hearing this.
"General, I really want to hear it..."
Just when the two were suspicious, Zhu Yunxi kicked the door angrily.
"You are so hot that you don't know how to open the door. You deserve it!"
When Lan Yu saw Zhu Yunxi in a Confucian shirt, astonishment, surprise, and confusion flashed in her eyes, her eyes became tearful again, and she strode forward, hugging Zhu Yunxi tightly in her arms.
"Brat, it's really you!"
"You want to kill my uncle, my uncle is looking forward to your coming every day, but afraid of your coming..."
Zhu Yunxi patted Lan Yu's back and said with a smile.
"Didn't I come here?"
Lan Yu hurriedly pushed Zhu Yunxi away when she heard the words, and said with a serious face.
"Use me!"
"Don't learn from your grandpa, you have to look like an emperor to be an emperor, don't we, me, me..."
Zhu Yunxi is as good as others.
"Row!"
"I'm here!"
Lan Yu laughed loudly when she heard the words, then her old face turned gloomy.
"We are so happy to see you, but we are so angry!"
"Zhu Yunxi, you leave such a big Ming Dynasty alone, why are you here in a remote country?"
"Let me tell you, if something happens to Daming, even if you take down the entire Western Region, it will be a big loss!"
"Listen to my uncle's words and go back quickly. Let's mobilize [-] soldiers and horses to escort you back to the country. Hurry up and go back to Daming, this place is not the place you should come to!"
"Explore the frontiers, fight and charge, and we ordinary people will do it for you, so why do you do it yourself?"
Zhu Yunxi smiled when he heard this.
"It's okay, my uncle is more sensible than before!"
"Uncle, don't worry, since I have come here, I am absolutely sure that nothing will happen to the court."
Lan Yu naturally believed in Zhu Yunxi's ability, but since ancient times, it has never been heard that the emperor ran thousands of miles away.
"Your Majesty, you'd better listen to my uncle's advice and go back quickly."
"What's the use of you staying here, we can still let you go to the front line!"
Zhu Yunxi smiled when he heard this.
"I don't even want to go to the front line. The reason why I came here is because I want to meet a few people."
"people?"
"Who do you want to see, my uncle will personally tie him to Daming, let you see enough!"
"I want to see the Pope!"
"I want to see the Emperor of Byzantium!"
"I still want to see the Emperor of the Ottoman Empire!"
"Is Uncle sure about kidnapping these people back to Daming?"
Sapphire is no longer a rookie. He has stayed in Samarkand for the past two years and has already found out the details of the surrounding countries and forces.
The Pope has an extraordinary status in the Western Regions, and they can even provoke wars.
It is said that the Crusades are not over yet, and many lords were fooled by the Pope to bring their own weapons and dry food to the battlefield.
The Byzantine Empire was also a god-like existence. If counted from the time when the country was founded, they can even be traced back to the pre-Qin period.
Although it was once divided into East and West Rome, Byzantium basically inherited Roman orthodoxy and can be regarded as the successor of the Roman Empire.
Relatively speaking, although the Ottoman Empire is not as powerful as the former two, it is the largest Islamic country in the Western Regions. It has a super cohesive force in the entire Western Regions, and can gather dozens or millions of Musilin soldiers in an instant.
If there were no Crusaders from the Ottoman Empire to block the Eastern Expedition, the Timurid Empire, the Golden Horde, and the Northern Yuan Dynasty, which was soon destroyed by the Ming Dynasty, would not be so peaceful.
"Your Majesty, the few you mentioned are big figures who can influence the entire Western Region. Are you sure they can come to see you?"
"Have!"
"I have sent someone to tell them, if they don't come, I will take the army there!"
