After Zhu Yijun asked this question, Guo Zhengyu quickly denied it and said: "Your Majesty, not all people in the ruling school are like this. I dare to guarantee them!"
"I trust you!"
"But we cannot let this matter go without asking. Even if it is a small number of people, we must strictly pursue it!"
After Zhu Yijun said that, he walked to the Chongzheng Pavilion in the school, sat on an imperial chair in the middle, and then said:
"Pass an order to have Wu Daonan be executed for possessing demonic books!"
"In addition, Zhang Maoxiu led the royal guards to surround the Ming Dynasty Ruling Academy and search all the documents and books here. If there are any slanderous words, collect them as evidence of crime! All the teaching bachelors and students of the Ruling Academy are under control!"
Zhu Yijun suddenly issued two strict orders.
Tian Yi immediately raised his hand and said yes.
Wu Daonan was shocked for a moment, and he knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, although this book is with me, it is not my book. I have not read it, and I don't know what the treasonous content is in this book!"
Zhu Yijun still said: "I said, kill him immediately!"
"Your Majesty, wait!"
"I have something to say!"
At this time, Hanlin Guanping Shuzhi, who was in charge of the school, came out and wanted to speak.
Zhu Yijun said in a deep voice: "Speak!"
"Editor Wu said that he didn't know why this book appeared, and he hadn't even read it. Even if he had read it, he had kept it privately. He should not be charged with the crime of possessing a demon book privately because of this. The book may not be a demon book.”
Ping Shuzhi replied at this time.
Zhu Yijun suddenly looked at Ping Shuzhi with a cold gaze: "I can't decide which book is a demon book, and I need to let the people of the world decide?"
After asking.
Zhu Yijun said with utmost majesty: "I said this book is a demon book!"
"And the fact that this book is secretly hidden here in Wu Daonan is the ironclad evidence that he has hidden the demon book!"
Zhu Yijun then said something unquestionable.
"Your Majesty's move is really hard to convince your ministers!"
At this time, Tan Shixuan followed and played loudly.
Zhu Yijun only laughed after hearing this: "I am the emperor, why do I need my ministers to be convinced or not?"
After Zhu Yijun said this, he pointed at Qin Shixuan and Ping and stated: "Wu Daonan is a traitor. These two thieves must be traitors and their accomplices! They deceive the emperor, harbor evil intentions, and deceive the emperor in order to undermine the country's political affairs. Kill immediately!"
"His Majesty!"
At this time, Ping Shuzhi knelt down first and said: "What you are doing is not in line with the new etiquette. How can you be strict with ministers for no reason and mess with etiquette first?!"
Zhu Yijun snorted coldly and looked at Ping Shuzhi coldly: "Why is it not in line with the new etiquette?"
"The new etiquette emphasizes treating people of your own country and tribe as compatriots. No matter whether they are high or low, you must treat them as human beings. In terms of personality, you should love and respect them!"
"And these people either secretly hide demonic books that slander the heroes of their own country or their own clan, or they make false excuses for it. Undoubtedly, they do not regard the heroes of their country and their own clan as human beings, and they also do not regard the people of their own country and their own clan as human beings!"
"What's more, even the heroes of our country and our race are not respected as human beings. I really don't know how far the common people of our country and our race will be trampled on in your eyes?!"
"So, you people are the ones who are not in line with the new etiquette!"
"In this case, you are undoubtedly evil villains with ulterior motives and extreme hypocrisy. Why should I regard you as my innocent children? You should be deprived of your personal dignity and just like animals, you can be humiliated, slaughtered, cooked and killed. !”
Ping Shuzhi was speechless for a moment, then suddenly bowed to the ground:
"I don't understand the truth. Now that I heard the holy words, I have realized it and am willing to change my past mistakes. Therefore, please forgive me!"
But this time.
There was Hanlin Rongxi who still reluctantly came out and said: "Your Majesty, I have read this book. It is not a demon book. The things it said are not fabrications, but solid facts. Why did your Majesty ignore right and wrong in order to protect your favorite minister?" just!"
Zhu Yijun said: "If I say he is a demon book, then he is a demon book! Since you have read it and did not report it, you are also an accomplice and should be killed!"
Because Rong Xi was mentally prepared, he was not too afraid and said: "Your Majesty ignores justice and right and wrong. How is this behavior different from that of a cowardly tyrant?!"
"I speak of the Constitution of Heaven, and what I agree with is justice!"
After Zhu Yijun said that, he said: "Behead Rong Xi immediately! The nine tribes have been reduced to the extreme! Cursing the emperor and father, talking about justice, and trying to overthrow the imperial line are really treasonous!"
"His Majesty!"
Guo Zhengyu also stood up at this time and said: "This is not the way to protect heroes! Not allowing people in the world to discuss their mistakes will only encourage heroes to become powerful officials!"
"I don't have any heroes that I trust!"
"I said so!"
"The faults others say are all slanderous words. If they say they have faults, they are saying that I have faults!"
"If the people of the world really want to admit that he has made a mistake, they should first find me at fault and let me abdicate!"
"As for the powerful ministers, I am in charge of the world's constitution. Anyone who can be a powerful minister is under my orders. If you want to criticize someone who is a powerful minister, you are scolding me!"
"If you have the ability, just raise your troops and attack me!"
When Zhu Yijun said this, he said: "Whether it's to protect the emperor or to kill the tyrant, I want to see who dares!"
"Since Your Majesty said this, I can only call Your Majesty a sage!"
"If in the future you really have powerful ministers who cause harm to the country, I hope your Majesty will issue an edict to punish you!"
Guo Zhengyu also replied tit for tat.
Zhu Yijun said without hesitation: "I will do it, but if it comes to that step, it would be too cowardly and hypocritical for you scholar-bureaucrats to ask the world to forgive me just for me to punish myself. It’s even more arrogant!”
"Why don't you dare to behead yourself and directly abdicate the king who used his powerful ministers to harm the country, and follow the example of the rebellious people since ancient times who shouted, 'Princes, generals, and ministers should have their own kind'?"
Guo Zhengyu was slightly startled, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he said excitedly:
"Why would your Majesty humiliate scholars like me like this?"
"In order to be a great emperor, Your Majesty does not care about the future harm of powerful ministers to the country. Do you really dare to make distinctions between noble and humble in the world, and maliciously criticize those who have made great contributions to the country and nation, so that the new etiquette has no place to stand? Your Majesty has to do only When those who obey me prosper and those who go against me perish, do we still need to commit regicide and be disloyal?!”
"You do understand."
"No matter what, today any treacherous villain found to have bad intentions and have written demonic books that smear people of their own country and clan who have made great contributions must be dealt with severely!"
Zhu Yijun looked at Wu Daonan and the others as he spoke: "The original intention of setting up the School of Governance is to firmly believe that people who come here can have a deeper understanding and firmer belief in the idea of 'seeking truth from facts'. As a result, I never thought that , Rao Shier and others came to the School of Governance. Although on the surface, each of the articles on understanding this kind of thinking was better than the last, secretly, they were all trying to return to the old days when people could not be treated as compatriots. But they have already abandoned the idea of truly enriching the country and strengthening the military. It can be said that they have directly abandoned the truth! Instead, they want to confuse right and wrong, and secretly want to deny the new rites by first denying the heroes of the country and nation!"
"You are not stupid, but you are really bad!"
"I am really disappointed with you students who entered the ruling school with evil intentions!"
Zhu Yijun cursed again as he spoke, and then said: "Execute the will!"
"His Majesty!"
"I'm wronged. I really haven't read it, and I didn't expect this book to be on my desk!"
"I am truly sincerely pious towards Xinli, and I also sincerely agree and support the core ideas of this dynasty's governance, and I am willing to fight for it for the rest of my life, even to the extent of giving my life!"
Next.
Wu Daonan, Ping Shuzhi, Qin Shixuan and others were all dragged down by Jin Yiwei.
Wu Daonan was still trying his best to defend himself when he was dragged down.
Tan Shixuan remained silent while describing his ambitions in peace.
Rong Xi shouted to Wu Daonan at this moment: "Why do you need to say more, sir? Once the holy will has been decided, how can you and I change it? To argue like this is to detract from the spirit of a gentleman!"
Zhu Yijun ignored it.
At that time, Zhang Maoxiu had already arrived with many imperial guards and began to surround the Ruling School and search the Ruling School.
"Report! I checked on Zhi Hanlin's bed and found some so-called information about the old hungry girl from Hai Pavilion and the old strong man from Wang Pavilion marrying a commoner girl!"
"Report! After searching the Zhou Jijiu book case, we found the unfinished secret history of the Wanli Dynasty that the late Grand Master took aphrodisiac and died!"
…
For a while, these imperial guards found many private notes that were not conducive to the imperial party in the dormitories and studies of young officials in the ruling school.
And every time one was found, a shivering and sweaty civil servant collapsed to the ground.
