Life of the characters

Lu Hongchun is the son of Lu Zhongdian, the right political envoy of Guangxi. Ming Wanli Ding Chou (1577) Jinshi. In the ninth year of Wanli (1581), in order to increase the government's revenue, Zhang Juzheng, a Bachelor of Shoufu University, ordered the implementation of the "one whip" law, that is, the combination of land tax, corvee and miscellaneous tax, which was converted into silver and shared among the land Mu, and the tax was collected according to the amount of land mu. At that time, Lu Hongchun, the magistrate of Jingde County in Anhui Province, found that the "one whip" method was "convenient for officials, but not for the people; convenient for the city, but not for the countryside; convenient for flushing, but not convenient for simple and remote", so he wrote "on current affairs", saying that the "one whip" method was expensive in money and cheap in food, which could lead to the disadvantages of "parents and wives have no support, while the wild have starvation". It can be seen that Lu Hongchun is worried about the country and the people.

In the 13th year of Wanli (1585), Emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty, because of his love for Zheng Guifei, abolished the preface and canonized Zheng Guifei as the imperial concubine, in an attempt to create the fact that his son was valued by his mother and let the young Zhu Changxun inherit the throne. For this reason, Lu Hongchun, who has been promoted to the head of the temple priest of the Ministry of rites, is in charge of sacrificial rites and imperial edicts. He thinks that the difference between the emperor and the common people and the order between the elder and the young, "the safety of the country is important, and the principle of the world is important.". Therefore, the song "please be granted imperial concubine Gong Shu" was played, and Zhu Changluo's biological mother, imperial concubine Gong, was also canonized as imperial concubine. Lu Hongchun also suggested that emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty should set up the prince as soon as possible, consolidate the foundation and stabilize the country, prevent the disaster from happening, and eliminate the change of elbow and armpit, so as to prevent the tragedy of brothers competing for the throne.

Because of his outstanding achievements, he was promoted to the Ministry of rites. In the 14th year of Wanli (1586), Shenzong did not face the court for a long time. Lu Hongchun, who was honest and upright, once again played "memorials of sending officials to sacrifice". He pointed out that etiquette is no more important than sacrifice. No matter mingshenzong is really weak, or it is inconvenient to sacrifice for other reasons, sending officials to sacrifice should not happen. The monarch should be vigilant and cautious in governing the country. On the one hand, he should not indulge in the deep palace and swallow boudoir, on the other hand, he should cover himself up with gorgeous and wonderful imperial edict articles. The emperor should take the country and country as his mind, and should not seek pleasure for a while and have endless troubles. The monarch and his ministers should live in harmony and reduce estrangement and suspicion. The monarch should not fool the minister with rhetoric, and the minister should not cheat Only by deceiving the monarch and uniting the upper and lower levels can we ensure that the people live and work in peace and contentment, the country's long-term stability, and the real peace and prosperity.

Because Lu Hongchun's "sending officials to mourn and memorials" pointed out the current situation directly and hit the key point of Ming Shenzong's indulgence in wine and sex and neglect of political affairs, mingshenzong was furious when he saw the memorials, and reapplied the punishment of Zhang which was almost abolished after the middle of Ming Dynasty. Lu Hongchun's sixty sticks were used in the imperial court, and his official position was removed. Editors Feng Qi and Lu Kejiao were relieved to go home.

Hong Chun is open-minded and resolute. He is kind and charitable. He once helped Tian 499 weigh in the school. After emperor Guangzong ascended the throne, he sent envoys to offer sacrifices to Shaoqing of Guanglu temple.

Records of Ming history

Lu Hongchun is a native of Dongyang. Father Zhong Dian, Guangxi buzhengshi. In the fifth year of Wanli, Hong Chunju was a Jinshi, a magistrate of Jingde County, and a minister of rites. In October of the fourteenth year, the emperor did not look at the court for a long time. Hong Chunshang said, "Your Majesty has been sparing the court for several days since September. The day before yesterday, he ordered that his head be dazzled and his body be empty. He will stop talking about the court for a while. At that time, he enjoyed the imperial temple and sent officials to pay homage to him. He also said, "if you don't dare to steal, you're afraid that the Buddha will become a rite.". I'm a fool. I'm scared. Husband's ceremony is not more important than sacrifice, and disease is not more important than emptiness. Your majesty is prosperous in spring and autumn. It is not appropriate to have it. It hurts the heart of the virgin and frightens the hearing of the subjects. But because of the abolition of the grand ceremony of the ancestors, I don't know why your majesty is safe. What I heard is even more different. On the 26th of the first day, a decree was issued to avoid the imperial court. That is to say, his majesty injured his forehead when he tried his horse. If the result is as people say, it's easy to take the pleasure of galloping for a while and ignore the defense of the whole body. If it's like the Oracle, it's more dangerous to take advantage of the present entertainment and forget the skill of protecting one's body. If it's the burden of virtue, it's nothing more. And your majesty does not mean that he lives in the ninth place, which is unknown to the court. When the emperor lives, is there any one who is quiet and unheard of? However, if you don't dare to direct your majesty, you will be more obedient and less respectful. Your majesty is always happy when he is flattered and angry when he is admonished. When he comes to the palace, he will be severely punished. Who is willing to be taboo in order to avoid unexpected disasters? This is not the Lord's blessing. May your majesty take the clan as the most important thing, without any coercion. Try to control this heart, and be careful to check. Don't indulge in the leisure of the deep palace, don't borrow from the left and right near practice, and make clear the world by bowing and practicing. If you use the rules and regulations, the world will be boundless. It's better to be deaf than to be deaf The emperor was angry when he was spared. More than a hundred words were circulated to the cabinet, which made it very clear that it was the reason for sending officials quickly. Hong Chun's disobedience led him to draw up an order to punish him. When the cabinet officials tried to seize the officials, they still talked about salvation. If the emperor does not obey, he will be denounced as the people. In all giving things, he applied for salvation, disobeyed orders and gave way. The emperor was angry, and his salary was poor. Hong Chun was abandoned at home and died for a long time. Guangzong's successor was given to Shaoqing.

The censor Fan Jun tasted Chen Shizheng. Emperor Fang Ji, see Junshu in the "anti human desire" language, denounce it. The principal, Dong Ji, admonished the demoted officials. After that, Yuan Wai Lang Wang went to school, but he didn't send him to Zi palace because he advised the emperor to take care of his illness. They are similar to Hongchun.
