"What are you shouting for? According to the emperor's instructions, people can still be exiled and contribute to the development of agriculture and agriculture. As the first of the principal criminals, you yourself have been punished with a crime of Lingchi, but you still have the nerve to complain for others."
Yang Huan reprimanded Manchao Jian.
Man Chaojian burst out laughing.
After laughing, Man Chaojian looked at the wailing and roaring Jiangnan gentry and shouted: "Masters! You have seen it now. This is the result of compromising with this unscrupulous court. Man really doesn't know that you Why on earth don’t you dare to openly and completely break with the unjust court! What are you afraid of! It’s just the death of the nine tribes, no one will die! The one in the court dares to have such an iron fist, why don’t you have such courage! "
Man Chaojian cried bitterly as he spoke: "We, the gentry, are in today's misfortune only because there are so many weak men in the world!"
"Man surnamed! Don't be so arrogant! We are here today all because of you, because of you, a treacherous official and traitor! I wish I could eat you alive!"
A gentleman blushed and roared at Man Chaojian. He didn't want to be punished more severely because he was cursing the court like crazy Man Chaojian. In addition, he also hoped that he could get through the curse today. Recommending him to the emperor and letting the emperor know his performance will allow him to return to the pass from Liaodong.
And other gentry also followed up and started to curse and recommend him to the court.
"Traitor! All this happened because of you, it was you who caused it!"
"Bah! Man, you have evil intentions and deserve death!"
Seeing this, Man Chaojian only sneered and kept calling these people cowards.
…
"Get in!"
At this time, Zhang Cai, Wu Changshi, Gu Menglin and other members of the society had been arrested by Dongchang and taken to this prison.
Man Chaojian saw these people walking in with shackles and shackles, so he laughed again: "How about it, you understand now, even if I, Man Chaojian, come forward, so what, the court wants to deal with you, How could you stop taking action just because I stood up for you! You cowards, these ignorant cowards, are reluctant to be cut off, but you will be cut up in the end!"
"coward!"
As Man Chaojian spoke, he shook the cell door excitedly.
Zhang Cai and others were silent, and even looked at Man Chaojian with some dissatisfaction.
They now suspect that Manchaojian may have betrayed them.
However, no matter what, Zhang Cai, Wu Changshi, Gu Menglin and Man Chaojian had to be executed by Lingchi because they were the real leaders.
There were also people like Kuang Youhui and Qin Daobao who directly directed the riots.
The other gentry involved behind the scenes need to be directly executed as the main culprits.
The first to be executed were these Jiangnan gentry.
"cut!"
Click!
Click!
Click!
On the day of execution, when the hour came and the executioner gave the order, all of the principal criminals fell to the ground.
The other Jiangnan gentry and clan slaves began to be put on pre-prepared ships one after another with their hands tied behind their backs, and taken to Liaodong.
Not long after, dozens of large ships were seen on the canal carrying these people heading north.
More than a month later, the ice-covered Liaodong welcomed a large number of new residents. Except for domestic slaves and some tribesmen, most of these people had high levels of education and a very low illiteracy rate. This was difficult for the development of the still wild and vast Jinzhou and Liaodong. It is a great thing for Fuzhou and Haizhou.
At least that's what Xu Guangqi, who is now in charge of the land reclamation and border affairs in the world, thinks so.
"Mr. Mei Gong, I am very sorry for your exile here. However, it has already happened. I hope you will let things take their course. Why not start working for the country again? Many children in this area now lack teachers. I wonder if you can teach them. , to spread the teachings of Chinese studies, so that the common people in this area will know Chinese rituals and learn Chinese language, so as to know the etiquette."
Xu Guangqi spoke to Chen Jiru, a great scholar who was exiled here because he was implicated by Dong Qichang.
Chen Jiru was very arrogant at the beginning: "Thanks to Mr. Ge's kindness, I have little talent and knowledge and it is really difficult for me to be qualified for this position. Mr. Ge might as well bury me alive to avoid wasting food and rice by staying in Liaodong."
Xu Guangqi laughed: "How can a servant kill people at will? In this case, Mr. Mei Gong will dig soil and build roads like them."
Xu Guangqi said and ordered: "Come here, take Mr. Mei Gong over to dig the soil. Mr. Mei Gong wants to be freed as soon as possible, so remember to let Mr. Mei Gong do more work. After digging the soil, let him pull the stones. Then go transport the potatoes that have just arrived, and don’t let him go back to the hayloft to sleep before midnight!”
When Chen Jiru heard what Xu Guangqi said, he hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Forgive me, Mr. Ge! I just obey your orders!"
For a scholar like Chen Jiru, it would be the greatest humiliation for him to do manual labor like a commoner, so he would rather obey Xu Guangqi's arrangements.
…
Zhu Youxiao asked most of the Jiangnan gentry who were imprisoned for this riot to go to Liaodong to do manual labor. This was indeed an insult to the gentleness of the Jiangnan gentry.
However, the gentry still staying in Jiangnan have no time to complain about the gentry who have gone to Liaodong.
Because they now have to complain about the imperial court's demolition of Donglin Academy.
"Don't demolish Donglin Academy!"
"Donglin Academy is our cultural center in the south of the Yangtze River. How can we demolish it? Why is the court so unreasonable!"
"Since the ancient Ming Dynasty, people have been encouraged to establish academies. Why do we, in the prosperous Ming Dynasty, not allow it! It must be a traitorous official in the court who falsely conveyed the imperial edict and forcibly destroyed our academies!"
Therefore, many Jiangnan scholars came to Donglin Academy in advance and stood outside the gate of Donglin Academy to prevent Zhang Tongchang, Yang Huan and others from confiscating Donglin Academy.
Even Zou Yuanbiao came to Wuxi from afar and stood outside the gate of Donglin Academy. He said to Zhang Tongchang and others: "I am Zou Yuanbiao, the censor of the former Zuodu. I hope you can forward this memorial to the emperor." , Donglin Academy cannot be destroyed, otherwise it will cut off our cultural lineage of the Ming Dynasty!"
Yang Huan didn't know how to refute this kind of matter, so he had to look at Zhang Tongchang, who was also a scholar.
Zhang Tongchang laughed directly: "Zou Gong is really old and dim. When did a privately built academy represent the cultural heritage of our Ming Dynasty? Did your Majesty decree this? Or did you say that the emperor first Did the emperor say something?"
"This is a public opinion of the world, and I am not the only one who thinks so."
Zou Yuanbiao said rather harshly.
"Is public deliberation an imperial edict? Does the Ming Dynasty have the final say through public deliberation or imperial edict? To say that an academy represents the cultural context of the Ming Dynasty, such a public deliberation is not considered impartial!"
Zhang Tongchang asked coldly.
"you!"
Zou Yuanbiao pointed at Zhang Tongchang and got angry: "How come Zhang Jiangling has such a vicious descendant like you!"
Zhang Tongchang replied: "I am just following the imperial edict! Why are you so vicious? If your Donglin Academy is really a place of cultural heritage, you should not write this kind of "Donglin Contract" with the intention of controlling Chao Gang. about!"
Zhang Tongchang waved his hand as he spoke: "Tear it down!"
"yes!"
Yang Huan waited and replied.
But at this time, Zou Yuanbiao shouted directly: "If you really want to demolish Donglin Academy, then step over me!"
