After hearing this, the ministers suddenly looked up and saw a very obvious star, dragging a clear tail, hanging in the sky, keeping pace with the sun.
Obviously there was nothing in the sky just now, but after the emperor stood up and spoke, the broom star appeared in the sky instantly.
Lao Zhu's behavior just now was as if the broom star was summoned by him in an instant.
The ministers stared dumbly at the emperor who was standing at the top with his cup raised, as if they were looking at a god bathed in bright light.
Zhu Biao, who had been sweating for Han Jingyun just now, completely relaxed at this time. Fu'er couldn't help but said to Han Jingyun, "My concubine's calculations are really accurate."
Not only was Han Jingyun not happy about Zhu Biao's flattery, but he raised his eyebrows and asked, "What? I saw you were nervous just now. Are you worried that my calculations are inaccurate?"
Zhu Biao suddenly smiled awkwardly, shook his head quickly and said, "No, no, no, I have always believed in you."
"Huh, you know what's going on." Han Jingyun knew that Zhu Biao was full of nonsense, but this was not the time to argue with Zhu Biao, so he let him go for the time being.
However, Han Jingyun still couldn't help but add, "You can doubt my mathematics level, but you cannot doubt my mathematics."
Zhu Biao smiled obsequiously upon hearing this, and thought to himself: You can even calculate celestial phenomena, who dares to doubt your mathematical skills?
Just as the monarch and his ministers were congratulating each other, cheers like ocean waves suddenly came from outside the palace wall, one wave higher than the other.
When Lao Zhu heard the movement, he immediately turned his head and glanced at Jiang Wei.
Jiang Wei immediately understood and left. After a while, he returned and reported: "Back to the emperor, the people suddenly burst into cheers when they saw the celestial phenomenon."
Lao Zhu nodded slightly, indicating that he understood. At the same time, he also smiled and raised his glass again, saying loudly: "Dear ladies, drink again!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty..."
The excitement lasts from afternoon to evening.
The Broom Star is even clearer when viewed at night. A bright light band about ten feet long stretches across the sky like a silver spear, with extraordinary momentum.
This time the celestial phenomenon lasted for more than twenty days in total, and it completely agreed with Han Jingyun's prediction. In sequence, he swept the inner steps, entered the Ziwei Palace, swept the five stars of the North Pole, violated Dongyuan Shaozai, entered Tianshiyuan, violated Tianshi, and then disappeared into the vast night sky.
If Han Jingyun hadn't predicted all this in advance, and if Han Du hadn't made such a big splash to let people watch the celestial phenomena, maybe this time the celestial phenomena would really be taken advantage of by some people.
After all, the broom star entered the Ziwei Palace, swept the North Pole Five Stars, committed the crime of Dongyuan Shaozai, etc. The occurrence of these celestial phenomena would have been a big event in the past, and now they appear together. Is this okay?
No, even if this is the case, there are still civil servants to report it.
"Your Majesty Qin Hai risked his life to start the memorial." An official from the Ministry of Rites stood up and knelt in the middle.
When Lao Zhu saw it, his eyes suddenly froze, his face became gloomy, and he said reluctantly: "What do you want to play?"
Qin Hai immediately knelt straight and said with a righteous face: "Your Majesty, the broom star entered the Ziwei Palace and swept the five stars of the North Pole, committing a crime against Dongyuan Shaozai. This is a celestial warning. Your Majesty must not ignore God's will. I sincerely ask your Majesty to punish you. Ji Zhao, in order to calm the hearts of the people of the world."
"What did you say?" Lao Zhu suddenly became furious, stared at Qin Hai, and asked through gritted teeth.
Qin Hai didn't seem to notice the emperor's anger, and still repeated what he had just said with a solemn expression. "...In the face of the celestial phenomenon's warning, I sincerely request the emperor to issue an imperial edict to pacify the people of the world."
"Bastard!" Lao Zhu was furious. With a sudden wave of his hand, he immediately swept the tea cup and pen holder on the plan to the ground, making a crackling sound that could be heard clearly in the surprisingly quiet Fengtian Hall.
"The broom star is a celestial phenomenon, not a warning from heaven. Since the founding of the country, I have been working hard, sleeping and sleeping, and I have not dared to neglect it for a moment. The Ming Dynasty has been turbulent since the founding of the country, and I have governed it to the stability and prosperity it has today. What's wrong with me?"
There is nothing wrong with what Lao Zhu said. Let alone the Ming Dynasty, even in history, Lao Zhu was the only diligent emperor. Moreover, his hard work indeed allowed the people of the Ming Dynasty to get through the depression at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty as quickly as possible, and all industries began to prosper.
Nowadays, the Ming Dynasty covers the vast land of Liaodong and Goryeo in the north. The suppressed Meng Yuan can't breathe and goes south deep into Nanyang, expanding the Ming Dynasty's border southward to the limit. He even took Annan into his pocket and suppressed it with the King of Qin. This was an achievement that even Qin Shihuang did not achieve.
It would be a shame not to praise Lao Zhu Shengming, not to mention wanting Lao Zhu to punish himself.
Han Du stood aside and saw clearly that this was not discussing Lao Zhu's achievements, but using celestial phenomena to force Lao Zhu to submit. This was opposition for the sake of opposition.
As long as your emperor's actions are not in line with our wishes, no matter whether you have made more achievements than the Qin Emperor or the Han Dynasty, we will put them all aside.
Qin Hai immediately replied with an expressionless face: "Since ancient times, warnings from celestial phenomena are the right thing to do. We have never ignored warnings from celestial phenomena. As a princess, Han Jingyun did not abide by women's ethics and brought trouble to the world with fallacies and heresies. He dared to act recklessly. Calculate God's will. I sincerely request the emperor to abolish Han Jingyun's position as Crown Princess, as a warning to others, and to assuage God's anger."
Han Du's eyes when he looked at Qin Hai suddenly became dangerous. Good guy, he not only wanted to send Han Jingyun to hell, but he also wanted to make a mess of himself.
Even Zhu Biao, who was always kind, looked at Qin Hai with a cold look. After all, Han Jingyun is his crown princess.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
How could he not be angry when he was slandered like this?
Kindness is one thing, but if he just sits idly by and ignores such things, then that is not kindness, but weakness.
Lao Zhu's chest was boiling with anger, but he suppressed it and said: "Han Jingyun uses arithmetic to test the secrets of heaven. This is because she has great knowledge. What crime is she guilty of? You are also a scholar. If you don't respect knowledge, then what else can you respect?"
"I read the books of sages, and my arithmetic skills are no better than those of a small Taoist." Qin Hai said with a righteous tone.
Lao Zhu laughed angrily and asked: "Arithmetic is a minor way, so when the Western Chagatai Khanate used arithmetic to force the Ming Dynasty, why didn't you, who claimed to have learned the big way, stand up and help the Ming Dynasty solve its problems?"
This is the scar of traditional scholars. None of the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty could be a match for the envoys of the Western Chagatai Khanate. In the end, they had to plead with Han Jingyun for help. Now that Lao Zhu mentioned it, it seemed like he was slapping Qin Hai crazily in the face.
Seeing that Qin Hai was speechless, Lao Zhu continued: "And you think the broom star is a disaster star, but when it appeared, the people all over the world rejoiced and marveled at witnessing this once-in-seventy-seven-year wonder."
"Your Majesty, the people were just deceived by Marquis Zhenhai. If the Emperor returns the truth to the people of the world, I believe the world will be uneasy." Qin Hai looked matter-of-fact.
Lao Zhu's expression suddenly became dangerous. He cast his cold gaze at Qin Hai and asked sternly: "Who would be uneasy?"
Qin Hai took a deep breath, raised his hands and replied solemnly to Lao Zhu: "The emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats share the world. If the scholar-bureaucrats are uneasy, naturally the world will be uneasy!"
Haha... Han Du sneered in his heart, and his eyes on Qin Hai instantly turned evil. Now Han Du was almost certain that Qin Hai must be someone's pawn, but he didn't know what purpose they had in making such a fuss on purpose, or if they just wanted to test Lao Zhu.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Lao Zhu suddenly became furious and said with fire in his eyes: "In the Ming Dynasty, the emperor and the people share the world!"
As soon as Lao Zhu said this, he instantly caused an uproar in the court.
More than a dozen third- and fourth-grade civil servants stood up one after another and quickly knelt down and begged: "Your Majesty, no, the emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats share the world. This has been an iron law for hundreds of years. Your Majesty must not break it."
But in the face of large numbers of people, although Lao Zhu is older, he is still as tough as ever. Without flinching at all, he glared again and said: "I said, the Ming Dynasty is the emperor who shares the world with the people!"
"Your Majesty..." More than a dozen officials also had fire in their eyes and were extremely angry. They even had a faint tendency to argue with the emperor.
"Your Majesty!"
A voice came out suddenly, and everyone focused their attention on the source of the voice.
Sure enough, he saw Han Du walking out of the honorable people step by step, standing in the middle and bowing, and said seriously: "Your Majesty, the Emperor and the people share the world. This is the eternal truth. In the past, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty once said to Wei Zheng: Jun The boat is the boat; the people are the water; water can carry the boat, but it can also capsize it. The emperor's words are similar to those of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. I would like to congratulate the people of the world."
Seeing that Lao Zhu was about to be besieged, Han Du naturally stepped forward to help Lao Zhu share the pressure. Moreover, Han Du's reasons were very high as soon as they came up. Emperor Taizong and Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty once said this. Who dares to say that it is wrong? Lao Zhu's words have a similar meaning to Li Shimin's, so it is naturally even more impossible to be wrong.
Li Shimin was the Khan of Heaven, the founder of the prosperous Tang Dynasty when all nations came to dynasty. Even he would say that the king is like a boat and the people are like water.
And "the emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats share the world" was just said by the emperors of the former Song Dynasty. Did the emperors of the former Song Dynasty have any extraordinary achievements? Sorry, not really.
Even if all the emperors of the former Song Dynasty were tied together, it would not be enough for Li Shimin to fight with one hand. What weight can their words have? Just treat it like a fart and let it go.
Han Du's appearance immediately attracted the angry looks of those officials. Especially Qin Hai, grinning as if he wanted to eat Han Du.
He raised his finger and pointed at Han Du and said: "You are such a clever talker, I am simply ashamed of you as a minister in the same palace."
Han Du was not surprised at all when faced with the accusation. Since everyone had seen it, let's do it with real swords and guns.
Glancing at Qin Hai, Han Du deliberately slapped his nose in front of his nose and said deliberately: "What the hell is farting so smelly?"
Then, as if he had just discovered Qin Hai standing in front of him, he pretended to be amazed and said: "Ah, it turns out it is such a thing. Whose belt is not fastened and exposed such a thing?"
Han Du's standard national curse was a bit obscure. For a moment, everyone in the court had not reacted, and the hall was silent.
But everyone present was a smart person, and within a few breaths they understood what Han Du was referring to, and the whole room burst into laughter.
The laughter was especially loudest among the distinguished military attachés. They all came from the military and liked to curse people the most when they were in the military camp. Now when I hear Han Du's high-level curse words, which can be traced without leaving any trace, and he scolds people so harshly, why wouldn't he be extremely excited?
Laughing sounds filled the Fengtian Hall one after another, and even many civil servants couldn't help laughing.
There is no way, no one can let Han Du curse so vividly.
Qin Hai suddenly became furious, but he did not have the means to curse Han Du, so he turned around and begged Lao Zhu angrily: "Your Majesty, the Fengtian Palace is the place where court discussions are held. What a solemn and solemn place it is? How dare Han Du dare to show off again? Que Ci, the crime is unforgivable. I ask the emperor to rule Handu, and it is a crime of contempt for the court and disrespect before the king."
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Lao Zhu was very happy that Han Du had stood up for him. How could he want to punish Han Du?
Han Du quickly raised his hands towards Qin Hai and said: "Although Mr. Qin is on duty in the Ministry of Etiquette, he cannot accuse someone of innocence out of thin air. Write down what I just said word for word. I have said something Dirty words?"
"Hahaha..." On Xungui's side, someone was already laughing so hard that they couldn't close their mouths from ear to ear. They even waved their hands and slapped their thighs, making bursts of sounds, regardless of their appearance.
There was nothing wrong with what Han Du said. As expected, there was not a single curse word in what he just said.
Qin Hai's face was red with anger, and he was holding a breath in his chest, but he couldn't find an outlet to vent.
Even the civil servants standing in the class looked at Qin Hai with regret. You said you had nothing to do to provoke Han Du. In addition to being a noble person, Han Du did not give a bad impression to everyone. He had never deliberately targeted anyone in the court.
And you know that Han Jingyun is his sister, but you still want to attack her. Isn't this looking for death?
Han Du looked at Qin Hai who was speechless, but had no intention of letting him go. Shaking his head and sighing: "I pride myself on reading poems and writing thousands of words, but I actually have a plan in mind. Arguing with you is really disappointing to me. Not only should your father not have exposed you in the first place, but he should have spray-painted you on the wall." .”
"Pfft!" Someone really complained, but it was not Qin Hai's father, but Lao Zhu.
I saw Lao Zhu's mouth full of ginseng tea, all wasted on the imperial case.
The old eunuch quickly went up and used his body to block the emperor's slightly embarrassed look. He took out a silk handkerchief and quickly helped the emperor clean it up.
After the old eunuch retreated, Lao Zhu returned to his solemn look. But the smile on his face could not be concealed.
No one among the ministers cared whether the emperor had lost his composure, because they themselves were laughing so hard that they couldn't suppress it at all.
Han Du's words were so poisonous that any man would not be unable to understand their meaning. Even when they heard Han Du's words, everyone had a picture in their minds. How could ministers who had never had such an experience endure such a strong stimulation?
"Pfft!" Someone sprayed again.
Han Du quickly ducked sideways, otherwise he would be splashed with blood by Qin Hai.
Qin Hai was so angry that he vomited out a mouthful of blood. His eyes rolled over and he fainted. He was scolded too harshly by Han Du. Qin Hai was ashamed, speechless, and faceless. At this time, he thought it would be better for him to faint.
But there are some things that can be escaped by fainting?
Han Du stopped talking glibly and said to Lao Zhu with a serious face: "Your Majesty, Qin Hai is an official and earns a salary from the imperial court. However, he does not take responsibility for the imperial court, shares the emperor's worries, and relieves the people's difficulties. What he thinks about all day long. This is all because of his selfishness as a scholar-bureaucrat. This is a manifestation of his lack of love for the people and his lack of personal ethics. He even used the celestial phenomena as an excuse to force the emperor to issue an edict to punish himself when the world was at peace and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. I beg your Majesty to expel such an unscrupulous person who deceives the emperor and disrespects his superiors!"
After saying that, Han Du straightened up and knelt down.
Is it enough to banish it? Lao Zhu narrowed his eyes and grinned, revealing a cold light on his teeth. Han Du is good at everything, but he is too soft-hearted.
Lao Zhu did not answer Han Du. He turned to look at Zhan Wei, the Minister of Rites, and asked, "What does Zhan Aiqing think should be done?"
Zhan Hui stood up expressionlessly, without even looking back at Qin Hai, and said: "Back to the emperor, the emperor's achievements are greater than those of Qin and Han Dynasties, and he is better than the three emperors. But Qin Hai dares to commit the following offense, he should be punished as deceiving the emperor."
After Zhan Hui's words fell, the entire court fell into silence.
Xungui naturally has no good impression of Qin Hai and others, and has no sympathy for his situation.
Some among the civil servants wanted to sympathize with Qin Hai and others, but in the face of the triple pressure from Han Du, Xungui, and Zhan Hui, even the other ministers only frowned and did not speak out rashly.
Seeing that no one had any objections, Lao Zhu nodded slightly with satisfaction. Then his face darkened, and he said sternly: "Qinhai criminals deceived the emperor, and all the nine tribes of the Yi tribe were exiled to Java. The rest were beheaded, and the family members were exiled to Java."
"Your Majesty, please spare my life..."
Qin Hai had fainted and he could no longer hear. But the other people who stood up for Qin Hai felt that it was not worth it. They just said a word for Qin Hai. They didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, but they actually caused death and harmed their families.
This incident fully tells people that you can eat randomly, but you can't talk randomly.
But now, no matter how much they begged, it was of no use. Groups of personal guards came in and dragged everyone off the shelves regardless of their pleading.
"Retreat!"
When Lao Zhu saw that there were no more courtiers to report, he shouted in person.
After the emperor left, Jiang Yu did not leave. Instead, he looked at the dozen officials who were dragged away by the pro-army outside the palace gate with a smile on his face.
Since these people were all going to die, he had to act quickly to squeeze out all their value. After Jiang Wei took the position of commander of Yiluan Division, he finally understood why Mao Xiang was so excited when he saw courtiers committing crimes.
Therefore, these people are all his merits.
As for how these people would grit their teeth and refuse to confess even though they knew they were going to die?
Haha, he, Jiang Yu, will let them know that in this world, in addition to death, there are also things that are even more terrifying than death!
