This is the Supreme Emperor!
Didn't the emperor come forward to uphold justice for them? How could he do this?
How could he allow three great scholars and the Minister of Civil Affairs to beg for their bones and resign to serve?
How did things become like this?
If it were Emperor Chongkang, all the rest of them would fight to the end and all of them would resign and serve.
If the imperial court suddenly loses 90% of its officials, chaos will be inevitable.
Emperor Chongkang would never dare to allow all of them to resign and serve.
However, the Supreme Emperor is different.
The Supreme Emperor's remaining power is still there, no one dares to be presumptuous in front of the Supreme Emperor!
They also knew that the Supreme Emperor was decisive in killing people. Since he said that no matter who begs for bones or asks for resignation, he will accept it.
The Supreme Emperor will definitely agree. The Supreme Emperor will do what he says, he really has such courage!
They studied thousands of miles to become officials. They studied hard for more than ten years and finally climbed to this position.
How can you just resign and not do anything?
Don't talk about them, just ask the three of them, Cheng University, Zhu University, and Huang University. By the way, there is also the Ministry of Personnel. Do they really want to resign and serve?
No! They are just blackmailing the emperor!
They originally thought that the Supreme Emperor was on the same side as them, but they never expected that the Supreme Emperor came forward to support the emperor!
At this time, all the civil and military officials even complained to the Supreme Emperor. You should have told me earlier that you and the Emperor were in the same group!
If we had known this, how could we have made such a fuss?
Suddenly, they thought of something.
It turned out that the Supreme Emperor deliberately let things get to this point.
It turns out that the Supreme Emperor had already intended for the three bachelors to resign and serve as officials, and the Minister of Civil Service behind them seemed to be just a supplement.
After eliminating the three old stubborns, the three bachelors, it will be much easier to implement the New Deal.
Thinking of this, their hearts felt cold.
Cheng Da, Zhu Da, Su Su and the Ministry of Civil Affairs were all excellent people. They were among the smartest people in Daxia.
How could they not guess the emperor's intentions and thoughts?
At this time, they knelt on the ground and cried bitterly.
The Supreme Emperor sneered and said: "It was clearly you who took the initiative to beg for the bones and resigned to become an official. Why are you crying now? Who are you crying for? What? Didn't I wrong you?"
All the officials present thought in their hearts: Have you wronged the three bachelors and ministers of the Ministry of Civil Affairs? Don’t you have any idea in your heart, Your Majesty?
Throughout the dynasties, whenever a bachelor who has not committed any crime resigns, even if the emperor really wants to let him go, which one does not give in three times and persuade him to stay?
Moreover, even if you agreed to resign, you did not give enough treatment to the three bachelors and the Minister of Civil Affairs.
This kind of permission without any welfare benefits is actually a humiliation to the four officials.
However, the four officials had no choice but to knock out their teeth and swallow their grievances.
The four of them had no choice but to say thank you: "Old minister, thank God for his grace!"
After thanking each other, the four of them stood up and slowly went to the official office to hand over the documents.
The backs of the four of them looked a bit stooped, as if they had aged ten years.
The Supreme Emperor glanced at the remaining officials in the square and said indifferently: "Anyone who opposes the New Deal can directly resign and become an official. I will agree immediately."
"If you no longer oppose the New Deal, then go back and do whatever you have to do!"
As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military officials present felt a chill in their hearts.
For a while, they didn't want to leave.
No one came out to resign, and no one left. The situation suddenly came to a standstill.
The Supreme Emperor sneered and ordered: "I'm going to resign, but I'm not going to resign, and I'm leaving but I'm not leaving. What are you going to do?"
"Anyone of the left and right guards who are still in the square after a quarter of an hour will be captured and sent to the sky prison! Then they will send people to search their homes and put them all in the sky prison! The whole family will be in order."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
boom!
As soon as the Supreme Emperor finished speaking, hundreds of officials in the square suddenly dispersed like birds and beasts.
The Supreme Emperor sneered, I thought you were so clever, but this is the result?
Now, I have cleared away the resistance from the imperial court for you.
If the reform can really succeed, it will not be a bad thing for Daxia.
If it fails, I can also step in to clean up the mess.
…
There was a huge change in the court, and the Supreme Emperor ended his life outrageously. He accepted the resignations of three bachelors and a minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs on the spot.
Such changes not only caused a sensation in the entire officialdom, but also spread throughout the entire imperial city in an instant.
Everyone in the city knew that the emperor was going to push for changes, and the world was probably not going to be peaceful again.
There are seventy-eight bachelors in the Hanlin Academy - there are still two people who have not gone, leaving seventy-six bachelors.
Well, among these seventy-six bachelors, their boss, Su Dasha, has resigned and resigned, so there are seventy-five bachelors.
These seventy-five bachelors formed a large group, directly excluding Jia Huan and Liu Changqing.
On the second day, seventy-five bachelors saw off bachelor Huang. They did not call Jia Huan or Liu Changqing.
Of course, even if they were called, these two people would not go with them.
Usually in the Hanlin Academy, when they meet each other, they treat each other as passers-by and don't even say anything to each other.
Jia Huan has long been accustomed to these.
And the wind suddenly picked up, ruffling a pool of spring water.
The wind of reform has just begun.
After that, Princess Anle appeared again, bringing him new news from the court every time.
The biggest good news is that his teacher Zhao Shi was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and entered the cabinet and became a cabinet bachelor.
In addition, there are also many official changes in other ministries.
These officials were promoted or demoted, or were directly transferred to Nanjing for retirement.
Or officials from outside are promoted to Beijing.
There are also some officials who were directly dismissed from their posts for various reasons and investigated.
And those who were demoted, transferred to Nanjing for retirement, or transferred to marginal departments, or directly removed from their posts for investigation, without exception, were all members of the sit-in crowd at that time.
This can only show that after the Supreme Emperor took action, the Emperor's revenge also followed.
Of course, the sit-in crowd at that time included almost 90% of the civil and military officials, and only a few did not go.
Emperor Chongkang's retaliation was actually limited and purposeful, and he could not suppress everyone.
Those he suppressed were the most stubborn conservatives, or officials who held important positions and would hinder change in the future.
Emperor Chongkang kicked them away and quickly replaced his own men.
When the manpower is almost deployed, the reform can be carried out directly. At that time, there is no need to worry about being secretly constrained.
I have to say that Emperor Chongkang's skills were extremely beautiful.
However, at this moment, a sudden change suddenly broke Emperor Chongkang's plan.
Moreover, this incident caught Emperor Chongkang off guard.
