When the last word of Zhu Yunxi came out of his mouth.
Behind him, Jiang Yu's eyebrows suddenly stood up, and his eyes were filled with unbridled murderous intent.
Jiang Wei waved his hand: "Jinyiwei!"
"exist!"
"Respect the emperor's grandson's order, take people, and send them to prison."
"Got the order!"
Jiang Wei gave an order, and the Jinyiwei officers and soldiers rushed like wolves and tigers into the officials who were kneeling quietly in front of the Meridian Gate to force the palace. They wanted to capture those officials who fell on the ground due to exhaustion and send them to the Jinyiwei prison.
Feiyu suits shuttled among the crowd, dragging out those officials who had fallen to the ground.
The officials were all terrified at this moment.
However, I was slightly confused in my heart. Why didn't they capture all of them, but only took away those who fell to the ground?
But no matter what, officials still have to express their feelings.
"I am not guilty! Why did you Jinyi guards arrest me?"
"I want to meet His Majesty!"
"We are not guilty. The Jin Yiwei is domineering and arrogant, but do we still have the king's law?"
"..."
The officials who were held by Jin Yiwei began to yell in panic.
Some people even felt that they had someone to rely on, and began to resist the capture of Jin Yiwei. However, all they received were beatings from the officers and soldiers.
In an instant, all the officials in front of the Meridian Gate were screaming.
The officials who were still kneeling on the ground felt their scalps numb as they listened to the shouts around them. Their kneeling postures, which had been exhausted and sloppy from kneeling all day, immediately became incapable of finding fault.
The faces of Zhai Shan and others were tense, and their children's holes were shrinking.
He glared angrily at Jiang Wei, who was hiding in the shadow of the fire, and said angrily: "Is this what Jin Yiwei is doing? Treating the officials of the country like cattle and horses and beating them wantonly? What are Jin Yiwei going to do! What are you, Jiang Wei, going to do!"
Jiang Wei raised his eyes with deep eyes and looked at the angry Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.
There was just a silent sneer on his face.
Jinyiwei, authorized by the imperial power, beheaded first and then played.
Today I just beat a few officials.
Zhai Shan's chest was shaking, his head was dizzy, and he almost fell down.
Fortunately, the Minister of War, Rujun, who was beside him, had quick eyesight and quick hands. He stretched out his hand to support Zhai Shan's arm from behind with a quick step.
Ren Hengtai sighed several times, threw up his robe helplessly, stepped forward and knelt in front of Zhu Yunxi.
"Your Highness, the country is fair and officials have never been beaten without reason."
"Today, the ministers knelt down at the Meridian Gate in silence. Although it was a breach of courtesy, it was understandable. No matter how dissatisfied His Highness was, he asked the yamen to expel the ministers. Why did he beat him with soldiers?"
"Above the court, the monarch and his ministers are one. If the monarch and his ministers are of the same mind, the government will be harmonious and the country will be peaceful. The monarch and his ministers are suspicious and alienated from morality. This has been the case since ancient times, and the prosperous times can also be interrupted. Heroes such as Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, the prosperous Kaiyuan Dynasty, and the past thirty years have been glorious and prosperous. In the Tang Dynasty, the emperor and his ministers were separated from each other, and the prosperous Tang Dynasty came to an abrupt end."
"The emperor seeks for eternity, and the king and father worry about the people. How can the king and his ministers turn away and lose one thing? The ministers are stupid, not the wise ministers of ancient times, not like Bigan, not Fangdu, and have no legacy of Fan Gong. They only serve the country for a moment. The choice. Your Majesty is wise, the Crown Prince is wise, and His Highness is talented. The country can choose talents at its own time to plan for the future of the country."
"His Royal Highness wants to purge the court, rectify the government, and reform the country. This is the act of a wise king. The ministers sincerely hope for a prosperous age, and they are not blocked by admonishment. The king and ministers of the country are all in the same heart."
"Today, the ministers came to the court and knelt down quietly in front of the palace gate. They gathered a crowd to persecute the emperor and his father. The crime is serious and it was not done by the ministers. But if it is because of this, the emperor will impose severe punishments on the ministers, and the cruel officials will be born. , the soldiers and armor are fierce, it will definitely cause an uproar in the court, and it will not be calmed for a long time, and it will be difficult to tame it again. In this way, the court will be in chaos, the government will be stagnant, the Ming Dynasty will be interrupted, the internal and external connections will be lost, and there will be no people. If there is no harmony and good governance, worries and troubles will breed.”
"Your Highness! I am not confused this year. I have been blessed by the country and received favors from the emperor. I am able to serve in the Ministry of Rites and assist the Zuojun to rule the world. There are wise men like the prince guarding the central palace, and the country has treasures like your highness. I am here. The good fortune of being an official is the good fortune of hundreds of millions of people in the world."
"I only wish that in this life, I can hold my whip in front of my horse, watch the prosperity of the country and drink freely! The aspirations of the emperor are also the aspirations of the ministers; the worries of the emperor are also the worries of the ministers. Today, when all the ministers are gathered here, the emperor should be magnanimous and generous. Forgive me for being rude."
"Minister, I dare to advise you, and I hope your Highness will understand clearly! Your Highness, the king and ministers of the country must not be separated! The road is long, and before the prosperous times, we should proceed slowly!"
In front of the Meridian Gate, Ren Hengtai, a bachelor of the Wenhua Palace and the Minister of Rites, sat in front of the first Zhuangyuan memorial arch in the empire. He spoke with burning words and burst into tears with his true feelings and tears.
For a long time, Ren Hengtai, who had promised to return home to entertain his grandson, had a long discussion that echoed under the palace wall and refused to disperse for a long time.
The night wind blew through several people's temples, and some white hair fluttered.
Zhai Shan opened his mouth, his eyes were red, waved his robe, and knelt heavily on the cold ground.
"Your Majesty, please think twice before proceeding!"
Ru Yu looked at the two people kneeling in front of the emperor's grandson, let out a long sigh, then bowed to the ground: "Your Highness, please think twice before you act!"
The eyes of Yu Xin and Wang Jun flickered. Today, the peacemaker and the Minister of Etiquette suddenly appeared in front of them in another appearance. The shock caused by it made the two of them stunned. Suddenly.
Is this the Ren Hengtai who doesn't want to make progress and just wants to go home?
Yu Xin and Wang Jun couldn't digest what they had just seen.
But now, the two of them coughed slightly and knelt down together.
"I second the proposal."
"Your Highness, please think twice."
Jiang Wei stepped out with a gloomy look. In his opinion, there were five members of the clan kneeling down at this moment. The moment they kneel down, it means that they are standing together with the officials behind them who are kneeling quietly to force the palace.
However, a hand appeared in Jiang Wei's sight, blocking his steps that he wanted to take.
Just raising his head slightly, Jiang Yu recognized that it was the hand of the emperor's grandson.
Jiang Wei's heart moved, and he quickly and silently retracted the foot he had just stepped on.
Zhu Gaochi's eyes moved slightly, looking at Zhu Yunxi's back, and wanted to speak, but in the end he endured it.
Jie Jin and Xia Yuanji's eyes became longer, and then they looked at Ren Hengtai, who was kneeling on the ground, with something new in their eyes.
Xie Jin sighed silently and raised his head to look at the long group of kneeling officials in front of him. At this moment, he felt how pitiful and hateful these people were.
Why!
Zhu Yunxi sighed softly, raised his hand, but stopped again.
In the past, he only thought that Ren Hengtai was a man who could read and understand the rules of the court. Therefore, the first person in the Ming Dynasty to own the number one scholar archway, he sat on the long-awaited position of the Minister of Rites and became the Minister of Etiquette. Bachelor of Wenhua Palace.
He is not as modest as the wise ministers of ancient times, but his words already have some legacy of the wise ministers of ancient times.
However, Ming Dynasty cannot tolerate even the slightest retreat now.
After letting out a sigh, Zhu Yunxi's eyes turned as cold as frost, with a murderous look on his eyebrows, and he asked loudly: "Ren Hengtai, are you also forcing the palace?"
Ren Hengtai, who was kneeling on the ground, trembled. He originally thought that he could persuade the Emperor Taisun, but at the moment, it seemed that he could not dissuade His Highness the Emperor Taisun from punishing the courtiers.
Ren Hengtai raised his head blankly. He really didn't know how he, as a minister of the Ming Dynasty, could continue to maintain the harmony between the emperor and his ministers in the court.
When the Minister of Rites, who revealed his true feelings today, raised his head, what he saw was Zhu Yunxi's angry gaze.
Zhu Yunxi snorted coldly: "The officials did not want to share the king's worries, dismissed the court for no reason, blocked the palace gates, and forced the king's father, which one of the Ming Dynasty laws stipulates!"
"minister……"
Ren Hengtai's lips trembled, but he couldn't speak.
Zhu Yunxi waved his sleeves violently and looked at the officials who were forcing the palace in front of the Meridian Gate: "You have been comparing yourself to the ministers of the country all day long, and you are saying that the prince has violated the law and is guilty of the same crime as the common people."
"If I remember correctly, this must be recorded in the historical records "Biography of Shang Jun" written by Tai Shigong. Then I will ask you and others, and we will know that "Han Feizi Youdu" says: The law is not noble, and the rope is not bent. When the law is imposed, a wise man cannot refuse, and a brave man cannot dare to fight. Don't avoid ministers when punishing people who have done something wrong, and don't spare ordinary people when rewarding good deeds."
Speaking of this, Zhu Yunxi lowered his head and looked down at Ren Hengtai, his meaning was self-evident.
Ren Hengtai's cheeks trembled, as if there was a lump in his throat.
"You are like this today. You may not be guilty of treason, but you are actually deceiving the emperor. How can I allow you to trample on the laws of the country like this!"
Zhu Yunxi's face was gloomy, and he shouted loudly and angry.
Yu Xin, who was kneeling in front of him, immediately raised his head and wanted to speak, but suddenly closed his mouth.
However, Zhu Yunxi had already spoken: "Hubu, do you have anything to say? I haven't lost my mind yet and won't let you talk."
Yu Xin felt regretful in his heart, but having been brought here, he could only say: "Your Highness, all the ministers are here today because there are rumors in the capital, and the imperial court wants to win the world's fame and preferential treatment..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhai Shan started coughing repeatedly and looked sideways at Yu Xin with shock and surprise in his eyes.
His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun was not dizzy, but he, Yu Xin, was really dizzy.
Yu Xin was interrupted by Zhai Shan's cough. He was a little dissatisfied, but his face turned pale in an instant.
A trace of unexpected joy flashed in Zhu Yunxi's eyes, but his tone became even more angry and gloomy: "The officials of the Ming Dynasty are really talented people! Just a rumor can do something to force the emperor's father. Okay! It's really good. !”
He mocked again and again, and his sneers resounded.
Don’t wait for Yu Xin’s explanation.
Zhu Yunxi had already shouted coldly: "The Ming Dynasty just took away the world's fame and preferential treatment, so what?"
He changed the subject, his tone was sinister, and he asked a sarcastic question.
Then, Zhu Yunxi waved his hand and pointed to the Meridian Gate, pointing to the three main halls behind the Meridian Gate that were shrouded in weak lights: "The country has been giving preferential treatment to the world's scholars for twenty-eight years. County schools, government schools, and Imperial College have provided constant money and food every year to support the world's scholars. . The Ming Dynasty has never been responsible for the fame of the people in the world, but most of the people who have the fame of the world have lost to the Ming Dynasty!"
It's over.
Ren Hengtai sighed deeply in his heart and looked sad.
He shouted: "Your Highness!"
The meaning of obstruction is clear.
However, Zhu Yunxi ignored it, turned a blind eye, and waved his finger north: "The first civil servant in the Ming Dynasty, the hereditary Duke Yan, a family of saints for thousands of years, the leader of the world's scholars, the Confucian family, and has been supported by the Ming Dynasty for twenty-eight years. Check now , the Kong family privately offered sacrifices to the previous monarch, and exchanged letters outside the Great Wall."
】
Having said this, Zhu Yunxi paused.
In front of the Meridian Gate, there was an uproar.
No one knew what the Kong family had committed except that the entire Kong family had not yet been taken to Yingtian.
But now, it was finally revealed to the public by Zhu Yunxi.
That is a serious crime of collaborating with the enemy and conspiring to rebel.
What was different from the civil servants was that the faces of the Imperial Guards and Imperial Guards officers and soldiers present all turned gloomy.
Zhu Yunxi then continued: "This is the family of the leading scholars who have been supported by the Ming Dynasty for twenty-eight years! This is the Gengdu family who has been treated as honored guests by the Ming Dynasty!"
The Kong family is hopeless.
For a moment, a thought flashed through everyone's mind.
However, Zhu Yunxi's words did not end there.
All I saw was a self-deprecating sneer from him.
"Originally, I thought that although there were treacherous people inside and outside the court, they were nothing more than a few. However, during this tour to the west to help Henan Road, I saw all kinds of things that were unbearable. The country gave preferential treatment, and the original intention was not to make people poor and exempt them from farming. It's bitter, but it was usurped by you.
In Henan Province, the trend of donation is prevalent, and millions of acres of farmland are empty in the Yellow Book of the Ministry of Household Affairs. The Kong family, with hundreds of thousands of people, took over half of Yanzhou's land, and had hundreds of thousands of people attached to support the family.
There are fourteen paths in the world, but you may occupy ten of them!
There are billions of people in the world, and you can easily own more than half of them!
The state gives preferential treatment to people with merit and fame, only for the benefit of the world, not for my family. How many of your families started from humble beginnings and prospered in poverty. Once they gained fame and fame, they had a desire to be superior to others and oppressed the common people, causing the poor to sell their wives and children and sell their heads. Treating the common people in the world as slaves and servants, you are the noble of your own family. "
Zhu Gaochi took a step forward, stretched out his hand, and already touched Zhu Yunxi's robe.
Just when he wanted to speak to dissuade.
Zhu Yunxi turned back and looked at him steadily.
Zhu Gaochi's face perked up, but he saw a smile on Zhu Yunxi's face.
Then, he saw that Zhu Yunxi had turned his head again.
"Today, I am here, in the imperial city, in front of the Meridian Gate, telling you clearly and clearly."
"I, the Zhu family of the Ming Dynasty, are supported by the common people in the world and sit on the land. Under my family, all living beings are equal, and no one with fame is higher than the common people."
"In the Ming Dynasty, there were schools with tens of millions of buildings, which educated the poor people. From then on, there was no more preferential treatment due to fame."
All is lost.
Ren Hengtai couldn't help but tremble with fear, his hands and feet felt cold and biting.
Zhai Shan rolled his eyes, screamed backwards, and fell heavily to the ground. Ru Yu, who was beside him, was stunned, her eyes were blurry and blank.
Yu Xin and Wang Jun both looked shocked.
No one thought that the rumors would come true at this moment.
In front of the Meridian Gate, the officials who had calmed down because the Jin Yiwei had taken someone were completely in an uproar.
Pieces of wailing sounds penetrated the thick palace walls, making the entire Yingtian City noisy.
Wails spread across the land.
Wherever you enter, everyone looks like they are crazy.
"Your Highness! Please take back your life!"
"Your Highness's move is a sign of disregard for the Ming Dynasty."
"As soon as these words came out, the world was immediately in chaos, and the world was about to be in chaos! The Ming Dynasty's 14th Dao, in an instant, there was flames of war everywhere."
"The imperial court's preferential treatment of merit is a national policy and law. Can His Majesty's move be authorized by His Majesty?"
"I am waiting for death to remonstrate! This strategy is not feasible!"
"I swear to the death that I will not obey!"
In front of the Meridian Gate, countless officials raised their heads and shouted loudly.
Ren Hengtai hugged each other with trembling hands, his eyes were blood red, and tears kept falling like rain.
"Your Highness! Are you going to cause chaos in the world?"
