"The Qianlong Dynasty has recognized the ministers who have died for the country since the Ming Dynasty. The National History Museum once wrote the book "The Records of the Officials who Martyred the Kingdom of Sheng Dynasty". His Majesty recalled that the ministers who died in the Ming Dynasty were each their own masters. Their righteousness and righteousness are commendable, but now

Compiling a book and finalizing..."

Lao Bo did not agree to rehabilitate Li Laiheng alone. The reason was that two years ago, Qianlong had rehabilitated the ministers of the Ming Dynasty on a large scale.

The negative teaching material of this book is the "Records of Erchen" that led the reform emperors to embark on the path of Qing Dynasty.

To sum up, Lao Bo's meaning is that it is not necessary. Nowadays, there are many more important things to do to restore the imperial court than to rehabilitate the ministers of the Ming Dynasty. There is really no reason to treat this matter as a first-class matter.

Lao Li also meant the same thing. Since Qianlong had rehabilitated the ministers who died in the Ming Dynasty, the Reform and New Dynasty would just do this again. It would not have a shocking effect, nor would it be of much help to the situation. It was a thankless effort.

Lao A didn't say anything. Although he was born in Manchuria, he also admired the ministers who died for the country in the Ming Dynasty.

But as President Li said, Qianlong had already done it, so the Restoration Dynasty did not need to do it with great fanfare.

However, he also thought that the emperor would not bring out Xue Jingqiu's excerpts for no reason, so he wisely remained silent.

Even though I don't oppose it, I don't support it either.

This is called professionalism.

He was capable of rising and falling in the Qianlong Dynasty and becoming the third most powerful person in the Reform Dynasty.

Jia Liu didn't say much. He just took out the book "Records of the Martyred Ministers of Sheng Dynasty" that he had put away from the drawer, and said to the three elders: "This book is not well compiled. Anyone who died in the fight against the Qing Dynasty will be

Briefly describe the story and only describe the ending. If the author and his family were mistreated and tortured by the Qing army during his lifetime and after his death, all the details should be erased and tampered with too much. This is really not an attitude toward history."

After he finished speaking, he turned over a page and pointed to Wang Yi, who was posthumously named "Zhongmin". His brief biography only said: "Wang Yi, Minister of the Ministry of War and right deputy censor of the capital, was born in Yuyao. King Lu sailed and gathered in Siming Mountain. He was defeated and executed.

, do not give in to death.”

"With just a few words, it is unclear how he will die."

Jia Liu shook his head, then took out a pile of books from the cabinet under his desk, and took out the top book called "Xue Jiao Pavilion Zheng Qi Lu".

Turning to the chapter about Wang Yi in the book, it is recorded that after Wang Yi was arrested, he took it easy every day in prison, dressing neatly, combing his hair, and washing his face.

The Qing soldiers knew that he was about to die and asked him why he still paid so much attention to grooming?

Wang Yi said: "I do this to let you people see the majesty of Han officials!"

When the Qing troops were assembled, the general interrogated Wang Yi.

Wang Yi sat on the ground and reprimanded calmly: "No need to say more! Success or failure is caused by God's will. What do you know!"

Seeing that Wang Yi's ambition was unstoppable, the generals of the Qing army couldn't help but became angry. They drew their strong bows and shot Wang Yi, and the arrow hit Wang Yi's shoulder. He also shot another arrow at Wang Yi, which hit his cheek. Wang Yi still held his chest up, like a straight tree.

Shake slightly.

Don't cry out in pain either.

The Qing soldiers were helpless, so they cruelly cut off Wang Yi's trachea with a knife.

"... died calmly at the age of thirty-six. After his death, his head was paraded in front of Ningbo City."

After reading Wang Yi's deeds word for word, Jia Liu asked the three elders again: "Which one do you think is better, such a detailed record of martyrdom or a few words in the record of Shengchao?"

"this..."

The three elders were silent, not because they didn't know which record was better, but because they didn't know what the emperor meant.

Doesn't he know that writing out the details of the murders of ministers who died for the country in the Ming Dynasty and publishing it to the world will make Han people all over the world hate the Qing Dynasty again, which will then set off waves of anti-Qing affairs.

This is not a good thing for the newly established Reform Court. After all, you, Guiziliu, are carrying the name of Aisin Gioro and the orthodoxy of the Qing Dynasty.

Doing this is more troublesome than taking off your pants and farting.

Jia Liu didn't ask any questions, lit a cigarette, and then read about the death of Chen Zizhuang, who was posthumously awarded the title of Marquis of Panyu by Nanming and was given the posthumous title of "Wenzhong".

In the first year of Yongli, Tong Yangjia, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, threatened to kill Chen Kezhuang's youngest son in an attempt to force him to rebel. Chen Zizhuang, however, would rather die than surrender, saying: "Power is not in Zizhuang's hands."

Tong Yangjia was unable to force him to surrender, so he became angry from shame and thought of a vicious plan to kill one person as a warning to others. He sentenced Chen Zizhuang to a cruel and inhumane "sawing torture", that is, sawing the person into two pieces from the top down.

But because the person's body is shaking, it cannot be sawed down.

Chen Zizhuang shouted to the executioner: "You idiot, the world (saw) needs wooden boards!"

"As a result, Chen Zizhuang was cut in half by Tong Yangjia with a saw from top to bottom. Which torture is more cruel than being cut in half?"

Closing the book, Jia Liu pointed out that the book compiled by Qianlong, in addition to deliberately not remembering how they died for the country, had very few words about the ministers of the Ming Dynasty who died fighting against the Qing Dynasty, but there were only a few words about the ministers of the Ming Dynasty who died at the hands of the peasant army.

A lengthy description of his willingness to die rather than surrender and his martyrdom process after being captured.

Such as You Shiwei, Zhou Yuji and others.

Mingchen, who resisted the order to shave his hair and died, also concealed his refusal to shave his head.

"Zhang Huangyan, a scholar of Dongge University and Minister of War, was born in Yinxian County. At first, he sent people to welcome King Lu to Shaoxing to supervise the country, and then sent troops to overseas. He was appointed as a scholar from a distance by King Gui. After hearing about the peace in southern Yunnan, he dismissed his troops.

He lived in hiding in Xuan'ao and was attacked by a large number of soldiers. He refused to surrender when ordered to surrender, so he died."

The biography of Zhang Huangyan, a general of the Southern Ming Dynasty who fought against the Qing Dynasty and was given the posthumous title of "Zhonglie", is only about 80 words long.

Not to mention that in order to force Zhang Huangyan to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, the Qing government took his family papers as hostages and ordered his old father to write books several times to recruit him to surrender. After Zhang Huangyan's death, his body was randomly abandoned in the wilderness. In the same year, Zhang's wife and children were also executed after being imprisoned for a long time.

, no one in the family survived except a daughter of the Wan family in Yinxian County who was married in her early years.

Qianlong himself particularly respected three people.

One is Shi Kefa, the second is Liu Zongzhou, and the third is Huang Daozhou.

These three people are all important ministers of the Southern Ming Dynasty, but they are all extremely incompetent. There is no need to guess what the purpose of admiring these three people is.

"The deletions are too heavy and too deliberate!"

Jia Liu picked up the "Excerpts of the Martyrs of the Sheng Dynasty" and requested that it be listed as the first banned book in the Restoration Dynasty. It would be re-edited by the National History Museum after the liberation of the capital, so as to objectively record the deeds of the ministers who died in the Ming Dynasty in a realistic and realistic manner.

In addition, Li Dingguo, Zheng Chenggong, and Li Laiheng, who respectively represent the three major factions of the Ming Army fighting against the Qing Dynasty, should be added to the list, and each of them will be passed on independently.

The three elders looked at each other, their hearts filled with turmoil.

"Since ancient times, there is no one else who has been more upright in the world than me. Loyalty to the emperor and righteousness are the top priority of this dynasty. My move is not just to promote famous teachings and establish principles for my ministers, but to rectify my reform atmosphere so that all my subjects can learn from it."

Speaking of this, Jia Liu actually asked Asiha to go to Xingshan in Yichang on his behalf to worship Li Laiheng, and he named Li Laiheng the King of Han, built a monument for him, built his tomb, and had someone dedicated to worship him.

"King of Han?"

Lao Bo was startled, "Your Majesty, although Li Laiheng is a minister of the Ming Dynasty, it seems inappropriate to posthumously title him King of Han after the great thief Li Zicheng."

But Lao Li asked: "I dare to ask your majesty whether it is your majesty's wish to make Li Laiheng the king of Han, or Wuchang's wish?"

This question is very crucial.

If this is Wuchang's intention, it is necessary to send out political improvement signals in order for the two sides to cooperate again.

Qianlong could posthumously grant titles to a bunch of ministers who died in the Ming Dynasty, and it was not impossible for the Restoration Emperor to posthumously make Li Laiheng king.

After all, this popular festival is indeed the most popular among ministers in the Ming Dynasty.

But if it was the emperor himself, then this would be very bad.

Could it be that as soon as the imperial court was opened and the Northern Expedition was not even carried out to regain the capital, the project of de-Qing Dynasty would be launched?
