These thirty-seven people all came out of work and knelt down to resign. It was like thunder in the ears of all the ministers in the palace. In history, it was unheard of for more than 30 officials to collectively resign in front of the emperor. No matter how mediocre or even perishing the court was, the most they could do was flee and never go to court again.
During the Great Ceremony Meeting during the reign of King Sejong, hundreds of officials knelt down and cried, just to ask the emperor to change his tune. At that time, there were not so many people resigning together to show the emperor's favor.
The collective resignation of these 37 people today will be a major political event recorded in history no matter how it develops in the future.
The fact that Lu Shusheng and others can do this today is also a sign of further ideological liberation in the late Ming Dynasty. In the historical period before the Dali Conference, the scholar-bureaucrats, represented by Yang Shen and others, had the ultimate ideal or the greatest political correctness, which was "to the kings Yao and Shun" and to recreate the "rule of the three generations".
No matter how bastard the emperor is, he is still the king's father - being hit by the imperial staff is equivalent to being beaten by the father, but we can't throw the father away, and of course we can't have no contact with the king's father.
After the Great Rites Conference, on the one hand, the politics of the imperial court were torn apart, and the Ming Dynasty entered a rapid downward spiral; on the other hand, a stroke of the imperial staff from Zuo Shunmen also woke up the Confucian disciples who were immersed in "To Jun Yao and Shun". Mingxinxue became a prominent school in both the government and the public after the Great Ceremony, which is a clear proof.
At this time, in the Ming Dynasty, there were already loud voices from the forerunners of thought such as Li Zhi and He Xinyin. Individualism and hedonism, coupled with the rapid development of the southern commodity economy, are growing wildly among the people like weeds. Therefore, the historical precedent created by Lu Shusheng and others today has its ideological foundation and its origin.
...
Zhu Yijun, who had gone through later philosophical studies and instilled the concept of historical materialism, could figure out what was going on. But for other ministers, what Lu Shusheng and others did today has refreshed their outlook on life. Everyone sees that this North Korean conflict has developed into a completely unpredictable direction!
The muscles on Chen Ju's cheeks tensed, and he shouted in his heart: "This is all because of the emperor's connivance! The only solution now is to reproduce the story of Zuo Shunmen and use all the generals' imperial staffs!"
Lu Tiaoyang, who had been silent all this time, secretly sighed in his heart. Although this emperor killed many people, he never killed an innocent person with the sword. Until now, there has been no minister in charge of the imperial court. Therefore, this temper was taken advantage of by these people who were kneeling on the ground - this was not asking for permission, it was clearly forcing them to have a baby!
While Lu Tiaoyang was thinking about it, Zhang Siwei beside him had already come out and said: "Since the emperor ascended the throne, he has treated his ministers like state ministers. He has treated his ministers with sincerity, treated them with sincerity, undressed them and pushed them to eat. It is more than enough kindness! Today, you are waiting for the party to come together, which is like forcing you to go to the palace - —Where do you want to go to your Majesty?"
After saying this, Zhang Siwei knelt down in front of Zhu Yijun and said: "Your Majesty, I am here to impeach Lu Shusheng and others, who are plotting to create gang members, coerce the emperor, and destabilize the country!"
After Lu Shusheng heard Zhang Siwei's impeachment, he opened his eyes angrily and scolded: "Despicable people, you pay rich money to be in power in order to get into the cabinet. What is your appearance now to impeach hundreds of officials? Liu Tai and Fu Yingzhen bluntly said that they were impeached Prison, do you have any words of advice to the Holy One? At this time, you are falsely accusing us of having a party, but you and Zhang Juzheng have formed a party and entrenched themselves in the court, deceiving the Holy Cong, and want to "reform" to disrupt the country! The history pen is like a knife, in the future There will definitely be a place for you in the Legend of Traitors!"
Lu Shusheng was already in his sixties, his beard and hair were all white, and he was highly respected in the court. At this time, he was uncharacteristically yelling at Zhang Siwei. His words were sharp and sharp, and they all hit Zhang Siwei's sore spots. Zhang Siwei was originally a medicine jar. After hearing Lu Shusheng's scolding, the world was spinning, his face was pale and he was speechless.
Zhu Yijun's face showed anger, he put the tea cup heavily on the imperial desk, and snorted coldly: "It turns out that cabinet ministers do not need to be recommended by the court when they enter the cabinet. They are all decided by Zhang Juzheng. Is this what Lu Shangshu means?"
Lu Shusheng knew very well that Zhang Juzheng didn't have that second thought. Zhang Siwei didn't enter the cabinet because he was with Zhang Juzheng, but because the Shanxi merchants behind him pushed him to join the cabinet, and Zhang Juzheng did not stop him. At this moment, the emperor's words were full of anger. Lu Shusheng stopped talking and fell to the ground in silence.
When Wang Guoguang saw that Zhang Siwei did not set up a step for the emperor, he had an idea and went out to the class to report: "Your Majesty, it is almost noon for today's court meeting. I would like to ask your Majesty to give you some food. I am all hungry."
Zhu Yijun nodded solemnly and waved his hand to the internal officials to inform the palace to prepare meals. Seeing that Lu Shusheng and others were still kneeling, the British Duke hurriedly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I am old and need to relax a little. How about taking a break this morning? Let's continue the discussion after the ministers and others are tired."
Zhu Yijun listened with a smile on his face. He said to Zhang Rong: "What the British Lord said is that I am indeed tired. I will go and change my clothes first." After saying that, he stood up and turned from behind the throne of Huangji Hall. Chen Ju and other officials quickly ran around Dan to follow him.
Seeing that the emperor was gone, the British public heaved a sigh of relief, smiled and said to Lu Shusheng, "Why is this necessary, Mr. Lu? There is no need to kneel down. Who is that? Come here and help Mr. Lu up."
Lu Shusheng's eyes under his thick white eyebrows were full of tears just now. After listening to the British father's words, the tears rolled down directly. He cried and said: "Today, Mr. Lu had no intention of asking for a name, but he brought the emperor and his father to a place of inhumanity. How could the emperor be even the slightest bit stupid? But he was shunned by someone on his knees. He is really confused! What else can he look like? Stand here?"
Wan Shihe, Wang Xilie and Zhang Han were all trembling with anger when they saw him like this. Oh, co-author, your resignation was a personal act, and we who followed you later are the culprits, right? Then why don't you participate in yesterday's series? Isn't it too late to think of clearing things up now that things have escalated?
Lu Shusheng had never wanted to tell the truth. He was just telling the truth. It was true that he wanted to resign, but he did not expect that it was true that Zhang Han and others would also resign. Therefore, Lao Lu felt sorry for the emperor who had worked so hard in the past few years, and his regrets came completely from the bottom of his heart.
Zhang Siwei was scolded so harshly by Lu Shusheng that he hated him deeply. When everyone went to change clothes, he closed his eyes and rested, thinking about how to use this opportunity to kill Lu Shusheng.
After Zhu Yijun relieved himself in the back hall, he hurriedly got on the chariot and went straight to Kunning Palace because he missed Zhuang Jingjia.
When we arrived at Kunning Palace, the birthday ceremony had already ended. Several of Mu Zong's concubines were chatting with Zhuang Jingjia. Zhu Yijun walked a little faster when he entered Kunning Palace, and several concubines couldn't avoid it, so they all saw him.
Zhu Yijun was a cheap father in this time and space. He received very little education. After he ascended the throne, he only chose one criterion for the harem, that is, good looks. Although these concubines are not as stunning as Qi Fei Ye, they are all good at winning in their own way. But in Zhu Yijun's eyes, compared with Empress Zhuang, these concubines are like green leaves setting off red flowers. Well, his empress is indeed more beautiful than the harem.
When Zhuang Jingjia saw the emperor returning to the palace, he came up to him happily and said, "Your Majesty, it is earlier for the emperor to go to court today than on the 23rd." After saying this, he came closer and personally took the hat that Zhu Yijun took off after entering the door. The concubines who were talking to her all bowed out after seeing the emperor returning to the palace.
Zhu Yijun told Sun Shanggong beside the queen: "Well, you can send off the concubines on behalf of me and the queen." After hearing this, the concubines could not even say that they should not do it. Not daring to raise his head, he walked backwards out of Kunning Palace.
After leaving Kunning Palace, a concubine breathed a sigh of relief and said: "The queen is really a devoted doting person. Seeing their loving appearance and the meaning of their words, they really look like a young couple."
Another concubine heard this and sneered: "Isn't this the case for newlyweds?"
