Zheng Sanjun and others were stunned.
They had to admit that Emperor Zhu Youxiao and Fang Congzhe really obeyed his words.
Fang Congzhe said that he was a traitor and wanted to kill him, so the emperor really ordered to kill him and ransack his home? !
"Fang Congzhe, you traitor, you controlled the court, you framed Zhongliang, you will not die well!"
Zheng Sanjun couldn't help but cursed.
Then, Zheng Sanjun looked at Han Xu and Sun Ruyou in a hurry: "Lao Ge, eldest uncle, lower official, lower official..."
"Mr. Ge, I still have something to do. I have to go back to the Ministry of Etiquette first and say goodbye!"
Sun Ruyou pretended not to hear Zheng Sanjun's words, only bowed his hand to Han Xu, and then left the cabinet in a hurry, for fear that Zheng Sanjun would hold on to his sleeve the next moment.
Han Xu also smiled and replied: "Uncle Zong, go slowly!"
Then, Han Xu also turned around and returned to the cabinet, seemingly not seeing Zheng Sanjun and others still here.
"Elder Ge! Uncle Zong! You guys?!"
Zheng Sanjun asked disappointedly.
At this time, Jin Yiwei had already come over and detained Zheng Sanjun, Yao Ximeng, and Zhou Qiyuan.
Zheng Sanjun was completely anxious because of this, and couldn't help shouting again: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! You can't do this, you can't just follow Fang Thief's orders, Fang Congzhe, I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost!"
"Mr. Zheng, are we really going to be beheaded?"
Yao Ximeng also asked in a panic.
"What do you think!"
Zheng Sanjun replied angrily to Yao Ximeng, and then said: "I really didn't expect that Fang Congzhe would be so disrespectful of the friendship between scholars and would be so cruel. He is more cunning than Yan Song and more hateful than Zhang Jiangling! I'm afraid that your Majesty is now If it looks like this, he is manipulating it, and he must have held the king hostage, which is why the government is so harsh and ruthless now!"
Because Zheng Sanjun said this, Yao Ximeng also cursed: "Fang Congzhe, you big traitor, you deserve to go to hell, I will fuck your ancestors!"
Zheng Sanjun and others did not dare to scold Zhu Youxiao directly, so they could only keep scolding Fang Congzhe. Of course, it was Fang Congzhe who directly caused their death penalty this time, so they kept scolding Fang Congzhe, and I also hope that through this kind of roar, someone will be able to clear my mind in the future.
Also because people like Fang Congzhe began to stand in front of Zhu Youxiao and fight against these stubborn opponents, Zhu Youxiao no longer had to fight in person. These stubborn opponents basically began to focus their struggle on those who supported Fang Congzhe. Zhu Youxiao's civil servant.
And most of the officials in the central court also know that His Majesty the Emperor is not alone now. There are people like Fang Congzhe, Xu Guangqi, Wang Yingjiao, and Bi Ziyan who are willing to serve as pawns. The scholar-bureaucrats themselves are already divided, and His Majesty even has his own money and army. He wants to It was easy to kill anyone, so they were very aware of current affairs and did not comment on the emperor's affairs regarding the Confucian family in Qufu. They even turned a blind eye to the conviction of Zheng Sanjun and others.
After all, everyone is not a fool. At this time, whoever dares to criticize will lose his head.
Of course, most civil servants are naturally dissatisfied, and very dissatisfied!
Whether it was Xichang's tax collection, the legal examination, or the rude treatment of scholars, they all wished that Zhu Youxiao would die suddenly and Fang Congzhe and others would be punished immediately. They even hoped that tomorrow morning they would be like all previous dynasties. The country will also perish in the past dynasties, the world will be in chaos, and heroes will rise together. Then the new benevolent and righteous kings will destroy the Ming Dynasty and establish a new dynasty.
But what they don't know is that the current situation of Ming Dynasty is much better than that of Ming Dynasty at this time in history.
Of course, they don’t want to believe it and don’t know.
…
Less gossip.
On this day, the officers and soldiers of the 3000th Infantry Headquarters of the Guards Battalion arrived at the outskirts of Qufu under the leadership of Commander-in-Chief Qian and Training Officer Zhang Tongchang.
Zhang Tongchang knew that his mission this time was to confiscate and exterminate the Kong family in Qufu.
Before coming, Zhang Tongchang had been given instructions by Zhu Youxiao, and he knew why the emperor wanted to eliminate the Confucian family in Qufu, and how disrespectful the Confucian family in Qufu was to the imperial court and the royal family.
And because the civil servants had done too much harm to the Zhang family, and Zhang Tongchang was summoned to the palace for special training by the emperor before he gained much fame, and was not successfully brainwashed by the scholars, of course, more importantly, Zhu Youxiao The emperor first rehabilitated Zhang Juzheng, praised him and the Zhang family ennobled him, so Zhang Tongchang did not choose to refuse the emperor's order, but chose to obey it.
In addition, Zhu Youxiao's behavior in the Huangjimen Grand Award for the Yulin Guards who went to Liao to participate in the war also made Zhang Tongchang and the officers and soldiers under his command more enthusiastic about serving the king.
Therefore, Zhang Tongchang not only chose to obey Zhu Youxiao's order, but also seriously and actively prepared for this military operation against the Kong family in Qufu.
"The first oath we take when we join the Yulin Guards is to swear allegiance to His Majesty and to obey the King's orders as our bounden duty! If it is difficult to have both loyalty and filial piety, then we must be loyal and betray filial piety. This is the greatest filial piety. Therefore, No matter what we are facing are foreigners or descendants of saints, in our eyes, anyone who is not loyal to His Majesty is our enemy! Do you understand?!"
Zhang Tongchang therefore mobilized his officers and soldiers.
"clear!"
These officers and soldiers all replied.
"Very good, now, I will arrange the task. After Qufu City is captured, one division's troops will be needed to control Qufu City, and one division's troops will be needed to surround the Confucius Mansion. The Confucius Mansion is very large and has many slaves, so don't be careless. Qian Sentinels directly under the headquarters must keep in touch with the sentries of each department at all times. Each department must keep in touch with the bureaus and flag troops of each flag team at all times. They are not allowed to act without authorization! Anyone who disobeys the order will be executed! In addition, no one is allowed to overstep their authority. Our Guards Battalion is only responsible for suppressing those who resist. , as for the confiscation and detention of prisoners in the government, let the people from Dongchang do it!"
Zhang Tongchang continued.
As Zhang Tongchang said, this time participating in the operation together with the 3000 Guards Battalion Headquarters were the 3000 regiments sent by Dongchang. They were personally led by Yang Huan, the newly established punishment chief of Dongchang. The main tasks were After the Guards Battalion captured Qufu and Confucius Mansion, the people in Confucius Mansion were executed and searched.
At this time, Yang Huan's Dongchang personnel had also arrived at the same time as Zhang Tongchang's Guards Battalion, and were also stationed on the outskirts of Qufu.
Moreover, next, two groups of troops also arrived outside Qufu City at the same time. However, what they did not expect was that a large number of officers and soldiers had already appeared outside Qufu City at this time, and they also hung the flag of Shandong Governor Pan Taili. .
"Mr. Zhang Qian! Our Zhongcheng asked you to meet him in the tent!"
Even after Zhang Tongchang and others appeared, Pan Taili sent someone over to convey the order to Zhang Tongchang.
Zhang Tongchang did not go to see Pan Taili honestly because of this, but replied in a neither humble nor condescending manner: "Please tell Zhongcheng! The last general is here to suppress the traitorous Kong family under the emperor's order, not to listen to Pan Zhongcheng's orders." ! And ask him to take his people away immediately, otherwise, you will have reason to think that he is going to join the traitors to create a rebellion for our great emperor!"
