That night, Yang Jinshui and his godson wrote the key points of the article about the designed loom improvements. The next day, I sent it to the master craftsman of the Weaving Bureau to see if they could improve the evaluation.
He served as the garrison eunuch in Hangzhou for two terms. He always did such nonsense as eating, drinking, and testing people's hearts. Unexpectedly, he was about to leave office, and he would be able to actually do something serious for once, which made Yang Jinshui feel particularly at ease when he slept at night. When I woke up in the morning, I even had the illusion that I couldn't bear to leave.
There used to be a generation gap between Yang Jinshui and those old eunuchs. Because many of the old eunuchs passed down from the Zhengde Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty had political sentiments. Because the internal officials also studied Confucianism, they naturally aspired to establish a heart for the world, establish a destiny for the people, carry on the unique knowledge for the saints, and create peace for all generations. At least in the eunuch's view, this ideal will not change whether there is that thing or not.
But for this great goal, except for the seven voyages of the three eunuchs to the West in exchange for the coming of all nations to the DPRK, all subsequent efforts have basically failed.
Although the historical records failed, in the eyes of most old eunuchs, the eunuchs are not to blame at all. The first are Wang Zhen, who is highly respected by the eunuchs of the inner court and the outer court, and eunuch Zhang Yin of Zhu Qizhen, the God of War in Tumubao. Although this person failed, he knows that there are still people who are sympathetic to the civil and military eunuchs. Generally speaking, the problem is not Wang Zhen, but Wang Zhen's gullible belief in the level of military combat strength and the level of food preparation reported by the civilian officials, so that all his troops were ruined in one go.
The second controversial person is Liu Jin, the great eunuch of the Zhengde Dynasty. Liu Jin saw that civil and military officials were not trustworthy, so he proposed strict examinations, but this basically stirred up a hornet's nest. In this way, he was followed by seven other eunuch scum to form the "Eight Tigers". Until now, many teachers and old eunuchs in the imperial prison do not think Liu Jin made a mistake. If corruption and bribery are considered wrong according to Taizu's decree, then there should not be a few living people in the outer court.
What these two did should be done by civil servants. But the civil servants all sat back and watched as the government deteriorated to the point where the two eunuchs who shouldn't have taken action couldn't stand it, so they took action. It didn't work, so all the shit basins were placed on the two eunuchs and the ceremonial supervisor. It is simply unbearable.
Although Confucianism is very dogmatic, that is to say, just let others believe it. But there is never a shortage of Confucian eunuchs who want to demonstrate the role of eunuchs and reverse the verdict of their predecessors.
Yang Jinshui used to think these things were pedantic. Eunuchs work for the emperor, so how can they have their own ideological bottom line? If the bottom line is not flexible enough, the head on your neck should probably be very flexible. These two eunuchs were obviously not doing the emperor's business, but were thinking about their own ideals. If this kind of eunuch doesn't die, who should?
But just last night, he stayed up late and did business all night, which gave him a sense of pride as a scholar.
At this moment, he understood the value of Confucianism that his teacher, the Imperial Guard, had previously taught in class.
At this moment, Yang Jinshui figured out the difference between Confucianism and Western learning. The most fundamental function of Confucianism should be to “righteousness and sincerity”With this, you can learn to do other things, and at the same time, implement and correct your "righteousness and sincerity" in the process of learning to do other things. This cycle can be regarded as the unity of knowledge and action.
There is This realization suddenly made Yang Jinshui feel very happy. He never thought that one day he would be able to reach the level of the Sanbao eunuchs, Wang Zhen, and Liu Jin once they had ideals and passions. , it’s hard to restrain. Especially when you have power, you always want to achieve it. Even after nine deaths, it’s probably like this.
When he thought of this, Yang Jinshui suddenly felt a chill on his neck. , I am still far behind Wang Zhen's level.
