In the main hall, Ji Suxue looked at the bright white light above the sky, bit her lip, and said in her heart, "Sister Huang, is it the last moment?"
Huang Nu said: "Since the monument of suppression has been taken, the family has already torn face with you. Now my royal family has a lot of luck, otherwise it would have been suppressed by this monument."
The monument of suppression is a method of countering the imperial way under the Confucian system.The Seven Great Aristocratic Families took advantage of this and joined hands with the scholars to make this game.
On the top of the stele is an inscription engraved with Confucianism and Taoism, which symbolizes the Confucian idea of governing the country. If the royal family wants to win, another inscription will be written. If the Confucian philosophy and luck can be broken, the stele will be broken. The family is also willing to be suppressed by the royal luck.
The founding emperor of the Great Zhou had always relied heavily on scholars, and the operation of the empire could not do without them, and he did not get rid of the hearts of the seven great families who were born and died, so at the last moment, he still entered this game.
But after that, the scholar's position in the Great Zhou Empire dropped again and again.
This Tweeting Order is a trump card suddenly released by the royal family, and its effect on the seven great families is no less than a major earthquake.
The seven major families protested together, but internal voices could not reach an agreement. Only the top figures knew what this meant, but their heirs and other wives and concubines secretly had plans.
Even if they knew it was an act of weakening the royal family, they didn't care.
That's why the Seven Great Aristocratic Families let this monument of suppression be used in an attempt to sway the royal family's spirit and give them time to slow down their reactions.
night.
In the imperial study.
Su Sheng came here after clocking in. He wanted to clock in the dragon energy on the queen again, but found that Ji Suxue was still not here, but there was a letter on the brightly lit table.
With previous experience, Su Sheng opened the letter.
I saw Ji Suxue write down what happened today one by one, and finally asked: "Mr. Xiongtai, according to your opinion, how should we break the situation?"
The Empress naturally has her own ideas, but she still wants to ask Su Sheng to see his opinion.
Su Sheng was silent for a moment, put down the letter, turned and walked out.
An hour later, the Empress pushed the door open and opened the envelope full of hope. After that, her complexion turned pale.
Sorry, no reply.
"He... has nothing to do?" Ji Suxue was a little disappointed, "I still think I'm too annoying and don't want to talk to me anymore?"
The empress worries about gains and losses.
Huangnu looked at the empress and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
Did Ji Suxue rely on this person again before she awakened her memory?
Is this...good or bad?
the next morning.
The stele of suppression stands in the imperial ancestral hall, and stands majestically in the temple.
"Ordered by heaven, you will live forever."
The above eight characters describe the origin of the imperial power and also describe the obligations of the imperial power.
Since he obeyed the destiny and became the emperor, he should make the people of Li people live longer and the fortune of the country prosper forever.
In other words, one is ordered by the heavens, and the destiny of that day is greater than the imperial power. Since the status quo is the destiny of the heavens, in order to break the suppression, one must break the rules of this day and subvert the entire imperial power.
This is the method that the scholars came up with in order to check and balance the imperial power, and it was used by the aristocratic family.
The stele is guarded by a great Confucian himself.
This great scholar was dressed in a gray robe and sat cross-legged on the ground.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and looked outside, and saw a handsome young man walking slowly.
After being slightly surprised by this young man's impressive strength, his expression gradually calmed down. He had seen many such people.
I want to be famous at a young age, I want to make a fortune, I want to prove that I have some brains.
However, this inscription is not something to be taken lightly. Even those royal elites and even real emperors in the past could not decipher this inscription.
The closest inscription, "Water can carry a boat and capsize it," was written by three generations of emperors, but it only caused a wave of fluctuations in the stone tablet.
Although this young man is extremely powerful, he may not be as young as he looks, but it is not easy to decipher the thousand-year-old inscription.
Su Sheng slowly came to the front of the stele, and looked up at the huge three-foot-tall stele.
"Are you going to write an inscription? What is the inscription?" the great Confucianist asked.
Su Sheng shook his head.
In their hometown, many people mentioned the phrase "establish a heart for the world, establish a life for the people, inherit the knowledge of the past, and create peace for all generations".
That's fine.
But he has only four words to write:
He picked up a brush dipped in ink and wrote on the stone tablet:
"Long live the people!"
If it is the words of a courtier, how can it subvert the imperial power?
Chapter 124 Confucianism and Taoism Supreme Treasure
When the pen and ink fell, for a moment, the place was like a thunderclap, a strong wind suddenly appeared, and the sound rumbled, and the great scholar at the side even stood up due to the wind.
Daru's face was full of deep shock, especially the words written on the stone tablet made him feel absurd.
It is clearly a stele of confrontation for the royal family, how could the words "Long live the people" be written on it?
Su Sheng stood quietly on the spot, he naturally knew the origin of these four words, and if he wanted to overthrow the imperial power, he probably had to use these four words.
Otherwise, speaking for the royal family, what can break the opponent's eight-character inscription?
The other party's eight-character inscription has already written the duties of the feudal dynasty as an emperor.
Other than that, writing anything else won't help.
Even if Su Sheng really put the few words of Zhang Heng in his previous life on it, there is a high probability that it will not help.
Because Zhang Heng's few words are for the royal family.The scholar-bureaucrat class existed to serve the feudal dynasty, and this cannot be changed.
No matter how much a scholar escapes, he cannot escape the shackles of the seven words "self-cultivation, governance of the country and peace of the world".
Because they are self-cultivation, assisting the emperor in governing the country, and pacifying the world for the royal family.
