"Mighty, mighty, mighty, mighty, mighty"
Accompanied by guards and escorted by common people, the group soon arrived at Tongzhou Yamen.
The county magistrate, who had already heard the news, had been waiting for a long time.
When everyone just entered the county government office, the government officials held long sticks and beat the ground while shouting.
Following the officer's shout, three people knelt down in an instant.
As these three people knelt down, more than ten people soon knelt down.
In a short time, more than half of these ordinary people were kneeling.
Some people even pulled the corners of Zhu Youjian's clothes to signal Zhu Youjian to kneel down.
Seeing this situation, Zhu Youjian wanted to laugh and cry at the same time.
I want to laugh because these people are so kind and can still think of themselves at this time.
I want to cry because I feel that the results of my reforms over the years have been too poor.
"Who are you in this hall? Why don't you kneel down when you see me?"
The county magistrate suddenly felt dissatisfied when he saw that nearly one-third of the people in the hall did not kneel down.
In the past, being an official was truly the pinnacle of life.
After all, since ancient times, those who served as officials from the four major classes of scholars, peasants, industry, and commerce were always in the first class.
The three powers of legislation, executive and judicial are all in the hands of officials.
Human nature is selfish.
How can the country avoid subjugation without strict demands on the ruling class?
As long as a few decades after the founding of the People's Republic of China, those officials who knew how the previous dynasty perished were almost dead, and the remaining officials would be embarrassed to be called officials if they did not bully the people.
It has been more than 200 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. How can officials still know about the suffering of the people?
Just when everyone was actively oppressing the people and striving to become slaves of the subjugated country as soon as possible, His Majesty appeared!
Just when everyone thought that the emperor, who had been deceived by the literati, would perish with his great name, and everyone could make a fortune by being a slave to the country's subjugation.
Who would have thought that His Majesty is actually an old yinbi.
After taking control of the military, he began to govern the country strictly. He not only killed countless corrupt officials to replenish the national treasury, but also put forward the requirement that "anything can be done without prohibition by law, nothing can be done without authorization by law, and statutory duties must be fulfilled."
Then through a series of operations, the broken ship of Ming Dynasty was repaired again.
At this time, the official's position is particularly embarrassing.
No one really thinks that everyone has studied hard for ten years just to make decisions for the people.
If you are a good official, how can you still feel like you are superior to others?
But if you continue to be a dog official, you will not only be guarded by royal guards, but also recorded on a monument.
We do it for money, but that doesn’t mean we have to bear the risks and notoriety.
This is the correct course of action for officials to reap the benefits themselves and let the emperor take the blame.
Since ancient times, everyone has known that they will remember their deceased king, but how many of them remember their deceased ministers?
As the magistrate explained, several more people chose to kneel down.
"I must say before that the people of the Ming Dynasty should kneel to heaven, kneel to the ground, and kneel to their parents. All other things are not expensive. Sir, let us kneel down. What kind of truth is this?"
Seeing that a few people were still hesitant, Zhu Youjian spoke directly.
The ancients advocated respect for distinction. Although Zhu Youjian agreed, he did not fully agree.
in his cognition.
Patriots should be nobler than traitors.
People with noble moral character should be nobler than those despicable people.
People who are capable should be more noble than those who only flatter themselves.
Those who contribute to society should be more noble than those who only know how to suck the blood of society.
