Red Alert 1895

Chapter 719: Do not believe in destiny

Wang Guorui defined the Manchus as invaders, so naturally he could not accept the Manchus' abdication and the Manchus' legal system. So what happened next made many people feel a headache, because Wang Guorui was unwilling to accept the legal system of the Qing Dynasty, and the next step really made them feel extremely uncomfortable. Because according to the convention, the previous dynasty has always been abdicated. This abdication has always been China's "unique culture". Every new dynasty must accept an abdication, which means that it is in line with the "mandate of heaven". "of. But now Wang Guorui is unwilling to accept the Manchu legal system, so where can he find a legal system that can be inherited at this time? If we don't find a legal system out of it, how will Wang Guorui's new dynasty be established?

"Master Wang is really in trouble. Where do we go to find a legal system now? Could it be to find the legal system of the Ming Dynasty?" "Looking for the legal system of the Ming Dynasty, but where should I find it at this time?" "Our Where can I find Zhu Ming's descendants? What's more, can Zhu Ming's descendants give up this legal system on behalf of Zhu Ming?" "Yes! Even if you want to give up the legal system, it is not just any Zhu Ming's descendants Those who announce their renunciation must be Zhu Ming's direct descendant!" "But where is Zhu Ming's direct descendant, we can't find it at all!"...

The scene has reached a stalemate here, because the deadlock here is simply very complicated. Wang Guorui does not accept the legal system of the Manchu Qing, so naturally he has to go to the so-called legal system of Zhu Ming. But how could Zhu Ming's legal system be found at this time? Even if a descendant of the Zhu Ming royal family is found, it does not mean that the entire Zhu Ming dynasty has given up this legal system. Just like the West, even the West cannot think that any person with royal blood can give up the throne on behalf of the royal family. Even if you want to give up, it is only through direct descendants that you are barely qualified. But let's not say that the direct descendant of the Zhu Ming Dynasty can't be found at all, so where can we find a so-called abdication legal system?

This time everyone is sitting on the wax. This abdication scene did not go according to the previously agreed script at all. Before, Wang Guorui asked the Man Qing to write an abdication edict, making everyone think that they were going to abdicate and accept the abdication. But the script didn't play like that. Instead, it went in another direction, which was the most **** result. Now everyone's resilience is simply not enough to deal with this situation. There are also scripts that have been prepared a lot before, and even various unexpected situations are also prepared.

In order to perform this play of abdication well, all kinds of preparations have been made. There are even preparations to prevent those Manchu nobles from coming out to "make trouble", and the guards are ready at any time. If there are Manchu nobles who want to "make trouble", they can immediately suppress them. Martial law has even been imposed in the entire capital, except for those "extras" who have undergone some screening, everyone else has been ordered to stay at home. You can't come out and walk around casually. If you walk wildly, you will be arrested, and you may be tortured if you are serious.

But now the script is completely wrong. The current script is completely caused by Wang Guorui, the "leading actor", who directly made trouble during a live broadcast of "acting", and did not act according to the script. This makes everyone feel like sitting on wax. You must know that this is a "live broadcast", but you don't have the ability to PS and edit after the event. Now that the leading role is not acting according to the script, those supporting actors have to think carefully How to keep up? A lead actor in a script did not act according to the script. But it happened to be a live broadcast, so as a supporting role, he was naturally obliged to make the play as smooth as possible.

But now they find that it is not so easy to go round, because the most important "prop" is not ready. In the process of acting, the prop didn't even have a shadow, which made everyone feel like they were sitting on wax. So at this time, there was a huge silence for everyone, and there was a huge silence in the whole script. Everyone didn't know how to follow Wang Guorui to round out the play.

Therefore, no one dares to speak out now, because the most important thing at present is to respond to all changes with the same. They didn't know what Wang Guorui was up to, but they said they had to wait for Wang Guorui to come up with more "clues" before they could continue acting!

"Everyone thinks that all kings who ascend the throne must accept abdication?" Wang Guorui asked.

Everyone heard this. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, they were not afraid of Wang Guorui's words. I was afraid that Wang Guorui would not speak. If Wang Guorui didn't speak, it would really be "unpredictable in the heart of the emperor", and if he answered wrongly, the consequences would be disastrous. Wang Guorui is willing to speak, which means that he can show his tricks.

"Your Majesty, since ancient times, all abdications have been the acceptance of the destiny, which represents the transfer of the abdication of the destiny. If you do not accept the abdication, it means that God's will is not there, and you are not the true son of heaven. All orthodoxy must accept the abdication, otherwise it is not Destiny belongs. If you don’t accept the abdication, then you will call yourself emperor in vain, and you will definitely lose your destiny.” A white-bearded Confucianist asked.

Wang Guorui asked back: "That's not destiny, so what?"

"If you don't get the destiny, then the country's fortune will be short-lived, and the country will eventually perish!" said the old man with white beard.

Wang Guorui laughed loudly and said, "You said that you must get the destiny? Did Tang Taizong Li Shimin get the destiny? Before Tang Taizong Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen Change, he once hoped to judge good or bad through divination. But Zhang Gongjin directly He smashed the divination equipment, saying that divination is used to solve difficult things, and launching the Xuanwumen Change is not a difficult thing. Could it be that the result of divination is unlucky, so in the end, should we not launch the Xuanwumen Change? Then you Say, did Li Shimin get the Mandate of Heaven? If he got the Mandate of Heaven, what evidence is there? You must know that he is a person who persecuted and killed his brothers and forced his father to abdicate, so it is impossible to get the Mandate of Heaven, right? Man’s destiny? But if he didn’t get his destiny, then why did Tang Taizong Li Shimin create the rule of Zhenguan, and why did the Great Tang Dynasty last for more than 200 years? How can this be explained?”

This great Confucianism suddenly became embarrassing, because this Tang Taizong Li Shimin has always been difficult to judge whether his merits or demerits are right or wrong. Because Li Shimin was the one who launched a coup, killed his brother and then forced his father to abdicate. According to Confucianism, it is impossible for such a person to obtain the Mandate of Heaven no matter what. According to what Confucianism has been propagating, such a person who is not benevolent and righteous will inevitably lose the country's fortune for a long time.

But Tang Taizong created the rule of Zhenguan and extended the country for so long. How can this be explained? In this way, everyone does not know how to explain it, so this so-called destiny is just a loophole. And they couldn't explain Tang Taizong Li Shimin's reasons at all, so they couldn't explain Li Shimin since ancient times, and couldn't use the so-called destiny as an explanation. Because Li Shimin is not a believer in destiny, judging from historical records. Before the change of Xuanwu Gate, Li Shimin was in a terrible situation. His military power was basically deprived, and then the advisers around him were transferred away one by one. And he launched the Xuanwumen Change as a last-ditch effort, which shows that he is not a person who accepts his fate. If it is an ordinary person, maybe even if his father does not support him and his brother suppresses him, he will accept his fate. But as a generation of heroes, how could he accept his fate?

"The so-called Mandate of Heaven is nothing more than a trick to deceive the world and steal its name! Since ancient times, the so-called Mandate of Heaven has been nothing but self-deception, to deceive those ignorant people. It is nothing more than those emperors in the past who kept fooling the people in order to prevent the people from rebelling. That's all. There is no destiny in the world, only your own efforts. Only by relying on your own efforts can you lay down your own foundation, lay down your own career, and create a great cause. The so-called destiny is nothing but self-deception. I, Wang Guorui, disdain Why do such self-deceiving things! Didn’t Wang Anshi also say that? The destiny is not to be feared, the words of the people are not to be feared, and the ancestors are not to be lawful. So why should the destiny be feared?”

Those rotten Confucians could not help but secretly cry~lightnovelpub.net~ This Wang Guorui actually showed the methods of those kings in the past who used the so-called destiny to return to fool the people, and he directly belittled the so-called destiny. Worthless. And isn't this kind of digging a hole for yourself? You must know that the emperors since ancient times have tried their best to sanctify themselves and their families, and then try to fool ordinary people into thinking that this family is destined to rule this country, and no one can stop it.

But Wang Guorui, the quasi-emperor, actually belittled this so-called destiny to nothing, and said that destiny was not worth mentioning so bluntly, and "insulted" heaven in this way. In this way, those great Confucian scholars will also complain about it. It is enough to understand this kind of thing in your heart. Why do you need to say it so openly? Said so openly, isn't that "belittling" one's own throne? If Wang Guorui becomes the emperor at that time, he will no longer be a person who relies on the "Mandate of Heaven" to be the emperor, but will rely on his own efforts to obtain it.

And if the people all over the world can see that they can become emperor through their own "efforts", wouldn't many people have this ambition? That's why many people felt scared, not knowing how to keep up with Wang Guorui's rhythm.

"I want to be the emperor, and I will never need the help of the so-called destiny!" Wang Guorui said. (To be continued.)
