Extra Chapter 11: Yan Changqing, Who Arranged The Funeral Arrangements, And The Deceased Saints [Ple
The tenth year of Qiyuan (1475), the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month.
After the funeral of King Zhu Ju of Zhou Dynasty, Yan Changqing began to travel to the Ming Dynasty.
On the one hand, it is to go out for a walk and relax, on the other hand, it is to think about what else I can do in the remaining days.
After all, he has lived for one hundred and twenty-three years. Although he lives a long life, he knows that he is not an immortal.
He will also get sick, grow old, and die, but sooner or later.
After the death of Zhou King Zhu Ji, Yan Changqing took stock of his physical condition.
If you are lucky and nothing unexpected happens.
If you have that much, you can probably live for about ten or eight years, and if you have the least, you can probably live for about three or five years.
Such a remaining life may be very long to others.
But for Yan Changqing, who has lived for 123 years, this is actually not much different from the fact that he will die "tomorrow" or "the day after tomorrow."
Therefore, it is also time for him to arrange "future affairs" for himself, and to arrange "future affairs" for Ming Dynasty [or even to arrange ten "future affairs" for the seven empires and this world[!
Among them, the "funeral matters" arranged for himself are the simplest. As early as decades ago, when Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan and others died one after another, he and Zhou Wang Zhu Ji had already prepared their respective arrangements in advance. funeral affairs.
It's just that Zhou Wang Zhu Ru didn't expect that the funeral arrangements prepared in advance would be used decades later.
So when he dies, just follow the funeral arrangements that were prepared in advance.
And how to arrange the "future affairs" for the Ming Dynasty, the seven great empires, and even the world, these are the things that trouble Yan Changqing.
The so-called "posthumous affairs" are divided into two aspects in Yan Changqing's view.
One is the aspect of scientific and technological civilization. After nearly a hundred years of development, the seven empires have reached the initial stage of the second industrial civilization in the previous life.
Although machinery powered by steam engines still occupies the mainstream of society today.
However, machines that use internal combustion engines as their source of power have also begun to gradually rise.
For example, within the various academies of science of the seven empires, there are people now studying internal combustion engine cars, internal combustion engine ships, and even internal combustion engine aircraft that use internal combustion engines as their source of power.
Although the technology is not yet very mature, some barely usable eyelid products have begun to appear.
If research trends like the 920 continue to develop, it will only be a matter of time before internal combustion engine cars, internal combustion engine ships, and even internal combustion engine airplanes can be used on a large scale.
Maybe even before he died, he could see with his own eyes the internal combustion engine cars running around on the streets, the internal combustion engine ships sailing on the sea, and the internal combustion engine aircraft flying in the sky.
At the same time, practical generators have become available.
Generators, like internal combustion engines, have also become one of the new energy sources that supplement and replace steam engines as the source of power.
In addition to the electric lights that have been used a long time ago, various other electrical appliances powered by electricity, such as movie cameras, movie projectors, telegraph machines, etc., have also come out one after another.
In addition, students in the Academy of Sciences of the People in the Seven Empires also began to study communication phones.
Although it has not been really researched yet, it has the general research direction left over from his previous identity as the Science Saint Ban Heng.
If the research direction is correct, it will only be sooner or later that a truly usable communication phone is developed.
In general, the seven empires are currently in the transition stage from the steam age to the electric age.
By the day he dies, Tian Da Empire should be able to completely enter the electrical age.
The next era after the electrical age is the information age.
He should not be able to see this one, but he can combine his conjectures about the information age, as well as related, correct research directions that he has experienced in previous lives.
Continue to use the research notes left by the Science Saint Ban Heng "before his death", and let the scientists of the Academy of Sciences in various empires continue to research in the generally correct direction.
This is the "posthumous" arrangement that Yan Changqing can make for the development of scientific and technological civilization.
By the way, Yan Changqing fabricated the identities of various Saints at that time, such as Nong Shennong, Yi Xin Qi Bo bed, Wen Cang Jie, Keban Wei, Shang Fan You bed, and Yu Sheng Boyi.
When Zhu Biao and Zhu Xiongying were still in office, he cooperated with Zhu Biao and Zhu Xiongying to make each of their Saint identities pass away in a reasonable way.
After all, those Saints were all fabricated by Yan Changqing and Zhu Yuanzhang in cooperation with each other (bhcg).
Yan Changqing fabricated these Saint identity vests with the original intention of establishing various colleges and spreading his own thoughts and doctrines.
And Yan Changqing has indeed achieved this goal.
But what followed was that each of these Saint identity vests gradually became students from various academies of the seven empires [and even the ten kinds of beliefs in the hearts of the common people!
If students from various academies of the seven empires and the people of the world knew that all these Saints were fake, just fabricated by Yan Changqing and Zhu Yuanzhang out of thin air.
Then it will inevitably cause an uproar in the various colleges of the seven empires and among the people of the world.
Such turmoil is what Yan Changqing, Zhu Biao and Zhu Xiongying are not willing to see.
Because nowadays, the court forces in various empires are basically composed of civil servants, military generals, and academies.
The civil servant forces are divided into central civil servants and local civil servants. The military general forces are further divided into military generals with noble status and ordinary military commanders without noble status. [Academic forces are also divided into various academy factions according to the different colleges. .
The further relative decentralization of power under this tripartite confrontation further ensured the supremacy of imperial power!
However, once Yan Changqing's identity as Zhu Saint is revealed, then under the power of the Chaotang Shang Academy, the various academies that originally cooperated with each other but were vaguely opposed to each other may be completely unified.
The power of the academic forces after being completely unified was enough to threaten the imperial power.
Therefore, Yan Changqing is the matter of the Saints and must not be exposed.
But Yan Changqing and the Saints are two entities, "inseparable."
Once Yan Changqing passes away, all the Saints will also pass away and will never appear again.
And as long as the Saints don't show up for a long time, it will inevitably arouse other people's worries and suspicions over time.
At that time, they will definitely ask the emperor who knows the true identity and situation of the saints.
So how should the emperor answer?!!
Say they are all dead?!!
Of course this is not possible. It is such a big deal that Saint died. How could we not spread the word to the whole world and hold a grand funeral for him!!!
This death was so quiet. Could it be that there was some ulterior secret behind Saint’s death?!!
And if one Saint died quietly, how come all the Saints died quietly?!!
His mother-in-law, could it be that the emperor was afraid of the prestige of the saints, so he secretly killed the saints?!!
As long as such speculation occurs, it will inevitably cause an uproar in the hearts of students in various colleges and the people all over the world.
It is not impossible for rebellious officials and traitors to rebel under the guise of "the emperor is ignorant and is plotting to harm the Saint".
Even if there is no rebellion, the silent deaths of the Saints will inevitably create cracks in trust between the emperor and the students of various colleges.
Of course, Yan Changqing never exposed the "true face" of the Saints, and subsequent emperors could also choose to let others wear Saint masks to continue pretending to be the Saints.
But what is false is always false.
Yan Changqing's appearance, voice, and other aspects of being a Saint can be disguised, but Yan Changqing's appearance cannot be disguised.
Just like mathematics, if you can't do it, you just can't do it. Hard words or sophistry have no effect at all.
Therefore, as long as the person pretending to be the Saint does not have as extensive knowledge as Yan Changqing, then he is very likely and extremely easy to be exposed.
For example, students from various colleges encountered problems while studying their respective majors, and then asked the "Dean Saint" in their eyes.
If it is Yan Changqing, then even if Yan Changqing cannot give the correct answer, he can still rely on his own knowledge and previous life experience to give the other party certain reference opinions from a high position.
But those who pretend to be saints do not have such abilities and abilities.
In other words, if he has such ability and ability, then he does not need to pretend to be a fake Saint, but can rely on his own ability and ability to become a real Saint or semi-Saint.
Just like Yan Longan, the first agricultural student of Wanmin Agricultural College, after he spent decades of effort, he finally successfully researched and cultivated the first generation of hybrid rice with a yield of 800 kilograms per mu.
Yan Changqing immediately gave him the position of deputy dean of Wanmin Agricultural College as a member of the Shennong family.
In addition, Yan Changqing also asked Zhu Xiongying, who was the emperor at that time, to obtain the special title of Farmer Half-Saint for him.
After Yan Longan further increased the yield of hybrid rice per mu to 1,000 kilograms, Yan Changqing even handed over the title of Saint of the Shennong family to Yan Longan in public.
Since then, Yan Longan has become the second generation of Shennong, the agricultural saint, and the second dean of Wanmin Agricultural College!
Among the Nongsheng temples all over the world, Yan Changqing stands in the center of the Shennong temple as the contemporary Shennong Nongsheng.
The Shennong family, the ancient agricultural saint, stands to the left of Yan Changqing, the contemporary Shennong family, and Yan Longan, the second-generation agricultural saint Shennong family, stands to the right of Yan Changqing, the contemporary Shennong family.
In addition to Yan Longan's great achievements in hybrid rice, agricultural students such as Xie Anhua and Zhang Chengxian have also made great contributions to the research of hybrid rice or hybrid wheat and other grain crops.
Yan Changqing also gave them the position of deputy dean of Wanmin Agricultural College, and they were also named Farmer Semi-Saints by Kai Kong and Wanmin.
In the Nongsheng temples where incense continues all year round all over the world, they, the half-saints of farmers, also stand beside the ancient Shennong family, the contemporary Shennong family, and the second-generation Shennong family, and together with them receive the incense sacrifices of the four seasons of the people of the world.
In addition to these contemporary farmers and semi-sages, there are also agriculturists such as Sheng Zhi of the Han Dynasty, Jia Sixie of the Later Wei Dynasty, and Wang Zhen of the Yuan Dynasty who have made great contributions to agricultural farming in the past dynasties.
They were also granted the title of Farmer Half-Saint by Yan Changqing and Zhu Xiongying, and together they received incense sacrifices from all people in the world according to the four seasons of the solar terms in the Farmer's Holy Temple.
Therefore, people with knowledge and ability do not have to pretend to be saints, but people with insufficient ability and knowledge are likely to be exposed even if they pretend to be saints.
And once it is revealed, the question will circle back to where the real saints are.
At that time, if Yan Changqing is the Saint, then the result may be the various colleges mentioned before.
The factions and forces were unified, thus threatening the imperial power.
If the Saints are dead, then other people will most likely suspect that the Emperor murdered the Saints. Otherwise, why would the Emperor find someone to pretend to be the Saints?!!
In the end, not only the students of each college will be alienated from the emperor because of the strange death of their saint.
All the people in the world will also have all kinds of criticisms against the court and the emperor because of the death of the saints.
By then, the credibility of the emperor and the court will inevitably decline, etc.
So in order to avoid such a thing, the best solution is to take advantage of the time when Zhao Changqing is not alive.
Let the "Nong Sheng Shennong family", "Medical Saint Qi Bo family", "Literary Saint Cang Jie family", "Science Saint Ban Heng family", "Shang Sheng Fan Bai family", "Yu Sheng Boyi family", All with
A relatively reasonable way to pass away.
In this way, the hidden dangers and disturbances caused by the death of Saints can be reduced to a minimum.
With the joint efforts of Yan Changqing and the two emperors Zhu Biao and Zhu Xiongying, which lasted for decades.
The agricultural saint Shennong, the medical saint Qi Bo, the literary saint Cang Jie, the science saint Ban Heng, the Shang saint Fan Bai, and the Yu saint Boyi are all dead without any hidden dangers.
After all, when the agricultural sage Shennong died, the medical sage Qi Bo and the literary sage Cang Jie were there to testify.
When Fan Bai, the Shang sage, passed away, Ban Heng, the science sage, and Qi Bo, the medical sage, were also present to witness it.
When the literary sage Cang Jie passed away, there were also the Yu sage Boyi and the scientific sage Ban Heng who testified.
Finally, when the Ke Sheng Ban Heng passed away, the two ancestors, Emperor Shi Yan Changqing and Zhou Wang Zhu Ru, witnessed it with their own eyes.
And with the personal witness and disguised guarantee of the Saints, Yan Changqing, and Zhou Wang Zhuji, in the eyes of students from various colleges and the people of the world, "all of you are upright."
Learn from the past.
In addition to mourning the passing of Saint, students from various colleges and people all over the world will not have any doubts about the death of Saints.
At most, I feel that a Saint dies every three or five years, which is a bit too frequent.
But as soon as they think of the "age" of the Saints, they will stop muttering.
After all, it is normal for people to die when they grow old.
Even Saint, "He is still a human being after all..."
