"Don't say that Ben Chai is not a man with a lot of fertile land, so he shouldn't be deeply hated."
"Even if I am a man with a lot of land, I will not disregard the royal family's face, and I will not ignore the importance of personal grudges and the national system!"
Bai Yiqing also sneered and answered Ren Yangxin's question.
Ren Yangxin bit her thin lips tightly and was speechless for a moment.
Being taught the principles of national justice by factory guards made him somewhat embarrassed.
At this time, Hao Rusong endured the pain and shouted: "The superior is so generous. Such disregard for the face of the emperor and the father and the country's affairs is not intentional by the inferior officials. It is actually caused by stroking and pressing!"
"Yeah?"
"Shang Bao Sicheng who is so forced that he wants to personally go into battle and kill the emperor Enyin?"
Zhang Jingxiu asked coldly at this time.
Hao Rusong was quite embarrassed for a moment, so he had no choice but to shamelessly look at Zhang Jingxiu and plead: "Young Master, you have a lot of noble people, don't argue with me, I am really confused for a moment!"
"ah!"
Zhang Maoxiu pulled out his sword at this time.
Hao Rusong cried out in pain.
Next, Hao Rusong and Ren Yangxin were taken into the capital by Bai Yiqing and other Jinyi guards.
The subordinate officials and soldiers of the prefect's Yamen also evacuated one after another.
Zhang Yunxiu was also carried back to the house for treatment.
Mrs. Zhang's wife burst into tears when she saw this. After Zhang Jingxiu arrived, she hurriedly asked Zhang Jingxiu: "My grandson, have they left?"
"Go back to the old lady, they're gone!"
"The Emperor's grace is so great! Don't worry, if these young people hate us again, with His Majesty protecting our Zhang family, nothing will happen to our Zhang family."
Zhang Jingxiu looked at Zhang Yunxiu as he spoke: "How are you now?"
"Brother, it hurts!"
Zhang Yunxiu replied weakly.
…
When Zhu Yijun learned about what Ren Suxin and Hao Rusong were doing in Jingzhou Prefecture, Huguang, he had already executed Zhang Sijiao and Qiu Li.
"Fortunately, I was prepared in advance, otherwise I would have been disgraced by these ruthless people and my family would have been affected!"
Zhu Yijun also spoke in such a deep voice in the Shiyusi, and threw the title book presented by Bai Yiqing directly on the eucalyptus, and told Shen Shixing:
"Such a cruel official who ignores the royal dignity and is good at sealing the Grand Master's residence without purpose, and who is good at torturing the imperial officials, will be punished directly! The Ministry of Rites was ordered to leave his embarrassment, and the three tribes and three generations are not allowed to elect officials. It has been Those who have gained official status and fame should be eliminated! Only after reorganizing the family tradition can we serve the country!"
"In addition, since these two cruel officials like to be beaten with sticks so much and even want to go up to them in person, then I will give them sixty sticks first! They don't have to be beaten to death. They will be beaten with their pants off after the sticks are broken and then executed!"
Shen Shixing handed over his hand and said yes.
Pan Cheng, Liang Menglong, and Yu Youding also nodded and said nothing.
"One more thing, when the imperial rod is held at the Meridian Gate, all civil and military officials must go to watch the execution!"
After Zhu Yijun gave this order, Ren Suxin and Hao Rusong were taken outside the Meridian Gate a few days later.
And all the officials gathered here.
At that time, the sky was overcast and threatening to rain, and the red palace walls around the Meridian Gate looked more solemn and majestic.
Zhu Yijun also came to the Meridian Gate and watched this scene with a sullen face. He wanted to see the performance of the officials in person.
At this moment, rows of royal guards came over and lined up in front of the civil and military officials, holding thick boards.
"Bring me up!"
When Tishuai gave an order, Ren Suxin and Hao Rusong were brought up.
When Ren Suxin was escorted to the Meridian Gate and heard the emperor's order to execute her, her eyes immediately showed horror: "How can this be done? How can it be done like this!"
Ren Suxin said to the ministers present: "Didn't the princes advise the emperor to treat the scholar-bureaucrats with kindness?! Even if Zhang Yunxiu was lynched by the imperial staff without permission, how can a king care about his ministers!"
None of the courtiers responded.
"Why don't you say anything! Don't you all just want to obey orders?!"
Hao Rusong, who was still alive because he was only stabbed in the ribs by Zhang Maoxiu, also started to ask questions at this time, with a look of grief, anger and despair on his face.
Because of despair, I don’t care about honor or inferiority.
Seeing this, Shen Shixing knew that this was the time when someone dared to take a stand first, so he walked over first, stood in front of the two people, and reprimanded in a deep voice: "How qualified are you to reprimand hundreds of officials?!"
"Do you want all officials to be as kingless and fatherless and ignore the emperor's orders like you? Or do you want all officials to be as disrespectful and unhuman as you?!"
】
"When the Grand Master was here, you spoke highly of his people. Even your slave You Qi was praised as a learned man and wise man. But when the Grand Master was away, you couldn't wait to do cruel things to his people, and now you shamelessly reprimand him. All officials behave like villains and only you are gentlemen, do you have any sense of shame?!"
"Even if Your Majesty spares you, the gentlemen in the world who abide by the principles of loyalty, forgiveness and benevolence will not spare you!"
As he spoke, Shen Shixing scolded Ren Suxin and Hao Rusong.
Zhao Jin, the imperial censor of Zuodu, also came over and said, "If it hadn't been for the letter from my friend in Huguang, and if I hadn't seen so many irrefutable evidences, I would never have thought that you would be so vicious-hearted. The common people still have the way of simplicity and harmony. You read the books of sages and behave like animals. Do you deserve to be regarded as human beings by the world?"
Yu Shenxing, the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, also came over at this time and said: "You have indeed gone too far and are not a gentleman. Now you should accept it calmly and stop humiliating yourself!"
Seeing this, Ren Suxin started to shake her head and said: "This is not normal, this is not normal, it shouldn't be like this, why don't you hate Zhang Taiyue?!"
But it is true.
Historically, civil servants such as Shen Shixing, Zhao Jin, and Yu Shenxing were very dissatisfied with the brutal revenge on Zhang Juzheng's family by Qiu Li and Ren Suxin. In retaliation, Zhang Jingxiu was very dissatisfied with the behavior of calling these two people the living kings of hell in his suicide note, and they had an even greater hatred of Zhang Juzheng. More sympathy.
Yu Shenxing, in particular, was punished by Zhang Juzheng because he opposed seizing love, but he did not hate Zhang Juzheng and his family because of it, and even took the initiative to intercede for his family.
Now, the bureaucrats who are still in the court, except for the reformists who are close friends of Zhang Juzheng, are neutral civil servants who are willing to have an objective evaluation of Zhang Juzheng or who are not so radical in opposing Zhang Juzheng.
Therefore, this caused the officials present at this time to have little sympathy for Ren Suxin and Hao Rusong, and instead reprimanded them.
Ren Suxin and Hao Rusong became even more desperate.
Not long after, Ren Suxin and Hao Rusong were pushed to the ground and their prison pants were removed.
"This is not normal!"
After Ren Suxin's white buttocks were suddenly exposed to the rain, she shouted again with veins popping out.
Zhang Jing, the eunuch in charge of prison sentences at the Meridian Gate, asked Zhai Rujing, the official of the Jinyi Guards Hall: "Remember, don't beat him to death, but beat him very painfully!"
"rest assured!"
"The arrangements are made by old Jinyi guards who have been in the imperial court for more than 20 years. They will eat this bowl of rice for the rest of their lives. I guarantee they won't be beaten to death, but their bones will be broken and their flesh will be rotten and they will be in pain!"
Zhai Rujing replied.
Snapped!
"ah!"
As soon as Zhai Rujing finished speaking, the Jin Yiwei responsible for the execution had already hit Ren Suxin's buttocks with a board.
Ren Suxin's white buttocks suddenly bounced, and after falling back, a regular rectangular pattern suddenly became red and swollen.
The pampered Ren Suxin had never suffered such torture, and the biggest pain was only when biting her tongue while eating, so she bared her teeth uncontrollably on the spot, and couldn't help but burst into tears, but she couldn't cry out.
Snapped!
Snapped!
Snapped!
"How could we be humiliated?"
"Didn't I agree that as long as I supervise the Zhang family, I will be promoted to Deputy Inspector?!"
Hao Rusong also shouted unwillingly after being pushed to the ground and taking off his pants.
"ah!"
As soon as Hao Rusong shouted, he suddenly felt a stinging pain rushing into his mind. For a moment, he looked ferocious and frowned. After a long time, he started to whine:
"It hurts so much! Don't hit me, I've never suffered anything like this!"
However, Jin Yiwei's punishment with the stick did not stop, and soon, the two men's buttocks were washed away by the rain, like boiled beef hot pot.
All the officials watched this scene in silence.
Suddenly, Shen Shixing said at this moment: "Gentlemen, let's keep it simple in our conduct from now on. I hope there will no longer be cruel and shameless villains! If we want to realize the benevolence of the king, father, scholars and the people, we ourselves must first respect benevolence. Zhili!"
All the officials nodded.
After the punishment was over, Ren Suxin and Hao Rusong were dragged off to the city center.
This was nothing to the two of them, because they were already in so much pain that they were already numb to everything.
So far.
The dust has settled.
Regardless of the government or the opposition, the radical forces that intended to counterattack Zhang Juzheng were basically eradicated, and those that were not eradicated had to cease their activities.
