This is not a simple memorial, but more like a whistle-blowing memorial.
Rujun saw clearly the signature of the memorial, three eye-catching and heart-piercing characters:
Zhu Youyi!
Ru Yu knew very well that Zhu Youyi was the second son of the King of Zhou. The son exposed his father and confessed nine crimes at once. As a minister, what else could Ru Ru say?
When ordinary officials impeach the King of Zhou, it is at best an impeachment. The court can drink tea and chat leisurely, and it doesn't matter if it is delayed for a few months. There is no evidence anyway.
But this is the biological son of King Zhou!
Zhu Youhuang is not a ten-year-old child who talks nonsense about Hu Chai. He is already nineteen years old this year. Not to mention he is charming and suave, and he is also married to Sheng Yong's daughter. Although he is not a good person, he is still sane. There are symptoms of neurological disorders and random biting.
Ru Yun's whole body was cold. How much did Zhu Youxuan hate Zhu Xi? Any one of these nine crimes would be enough to make King Zhou die.
Mom, I have no relatives in the royal family, so I won’t play like this.
Ru Jun tremblingly handed the memorial to Xie Jin. After reading it, Xie Jin gasped, looked deeply at Zhu Di, and said, "This impeachment memorial was written by Zhu Youhuang, the second son of King Zhou."
Astonishment and surprise appeared on Zhu Di's originally calm face. Others couldn't help but be shocked when they heard this.
The Ming Dynasty founded the country based on filial piety, and I was everything. Except for a few idiots and fierce men, few in history dared to rebel against me. Most of them chose to bully their nephews and juniors.
The basic ethics of filial piety and brotherhood must be maintained. This is the tool used by the Ming Dynasty to rule the people. As a royal family, you should set an example. Even if you are an emperor, you must often visit your mother and queen. This is filial piety, and it is indispensable.
The emperor must listen to his mother (listen), and the common people must listen to their father (obey). Few ordinary people would dare to disobey me. Even if they are angry, have conflicts, or at worst have to separate the family, they have to go during the holidays. visit.
But a guy like Zhu Youhui who directly digs a hole for me without forgetting to push and shovel dirt is the number one in the Ming Dynasty.
At this point, there is indeed no need for any evidence, and people can be arrested directly. As for whether King Zhou admits guilt or not, that will happen after the arrest.
Seeing that the others were silent, Jie Jin had to stand up and said: "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince of Zhou secretly impeached the King of Zhou and listed nine crimes. Although it is not completely credible, the Crown Prince is after all a close person of the King of Zhou and must know more. , it should be true. I believe that the imperial censor and the government impeached the King of Zhou for colluding with officials. This matter is basically confirmed. We can summon the King of Zhou to the capital for this crime and explain it clearly before making a conclusion."
Xu Huizu glanced at Zhu Di, took over Xie Jin's words, and said: "I agree with Xie Ge's statement that there are nine sins. Whether it is true or not, I can investigate slowly. The most important thing right now is to summon the King of Zhou first."
"Recall King Zhou? Oh, how to recall him?"
Li Jinglong sneered and objected.
Ever since he reported the secret meeting between Li Zengzhi and Zhu Di to Zhu Yunwen, Li Jinglong knew that he and Zhu Di could never go back to the past, and the Li family and the Yan Palace had completely broken apart.
Since they had broken up, Li Jinglong had no intention of sticking up again and begging Zhu Di for forgiveness.
The wind and waves in the South China Sea told Li Jinglong that only weak ships are drifting with the current, while the ones that really have direction and are not afraid of wind and waves are the big ships.
The Li family carries the name Cao Guogong. It is not a weak ship. There is no need to give in, and there is no need to look at Zhu Di's face. other people
Worried that Zhu Di and Zhu Xi are brothers, I dare not speak directly, so I will have to say it myself.
"Your Majesty, the crime of King Zhou has been made clear. Please order me to arrest King Zhou and bring him to the capital!"
Li Jinglong said solemnly.
Xu Huizu, Xie Jin, Ru Yu and others all looked at Li Jinglong in surprise. This guy went directly against King Yan in order to please the emperor.
Zhu Yunwen said nothing and looked at Zhu Di.
Zhu Di slowly raised his head, looked at Zhu Yunzhen, and said word by word: "The prince broke the law, and the common people are also guilty. I second the words of Cao Guogong and arrest the King of Zhou and bring him to the capital to await trial!"
Zhu Yunwen secretly held his hand. Zhu Di did not choose to help his brother, nor did he avoid it. Instead, he advocated that the king of Zhou should be punished as "the prince broke the law and the common people were equally guilty."
The prince breaks the law, and the common people are equally guilty!
This idea of "everyone is equal before the law" was originally proposed by Han Feizi, Shang Yang and others.
"Han Feizi · Youdu": "The law is not noble, and the rope is not bent. When the law is imposed, the wise cannot say it, and the brave cannot dare to fight. Don't avoid ministers for punishment, and don't spare ordinary people for rewards."
"Historical Records? Biography of Shang Jun": "The people of Qin all said that the number of people who were inconvenienced by the initial order was thousands. So the prince broke the law. Wei Yang said: 'If the law does not work, you will violate it from above.' The prince will be punished."
Yawen library
But this idea is often not the case in actual implementation.
In the feudal dynasty, there was inherent inequality. Everyone is equal before the law?
Stop dreaming……
In terms of Shang Yang's "If the law does not work, if you violate it from above, you will punish the prince". What are Shang Yang's punishment measures?
It is "to punish his master, his son Qian, and to tattoo his master, his grandson Jia."
In other words, the prince made a mistake, and Shang Yang did not punish the prince because he was the "king's heir". The blame lies with the prince's teacher. If these two people did not teach well, then let's deal with it together...
Throughout history, the princes who broke the law and the common people were equally guilty existed only in a few words, and few of them punished the "princes" with death.
Zhu Yunwen sighed and said to everyone: "Whether or not King Zhou has different intentions, I cannot allow him to stay in Kaifeng. After all, King Zhou is my uncle and a member of the royal family. It is not appropriate to publicize this matter to the outside world. Before a conclusion is reached, it cannot be spread to the public.”
Xie Jin and others quickly expressed their compliance.
Zhu Yunwen looked at Zhu Di and said seriously: "Uncle King Yan, the clan respects you now. After King Zhou returns to the capital, I hope you will handle this matter."
"I obey the decree."
Zhu Di agreed without refusing.
Zhu Yunwen nodded slightly and said to Ru Jin and Xu Hui: "In that case, I sent an order to Tie Xuan to follow Yu Xin's arrangements and choose an opportunity to enter Kaifeng Mansion and invite the King of Zhou, his family and officials to ride a carriage to the capital."
"I accept the decree."
The ancestors of Ru Yu and Xu Hui.
Xu Huizu looked at Zhu Yunwen in amazement. He chose to take action. Instead of simply dealing with King Zhou alone, he planned to take this opportunity to completely deal with King Zhou's Mansion in Kaifeng!
Although the "carriage" was arranged decently, everyone knew that their identities were prisoners.
Zhu Yunwen waved his hand, and everyone retreated.
Looking at Zhu Youxuan's memorial, Zhu Yunwen shook his head bitterly. He originally thought that if he did not follow the old path of cutting down the feudal vassal, it would be difficult for him to deal with the Zhou King Zhu Tri. Unexpectedly, the White Lotus Sect, the Yellow River's seizure of the Huai River, and other events were actually related to the Zhou King. Yu Xin went to Kaifeng Mansion, firstly to find out the truth
The second is to find an opportunity to kill the King of Zhou.
Now that things are going well, Yu Xin's investigation is progressing slowly. He is working as an oriole in Kaifeng Mansion, preparing to catch cicadas. However, Zhu Youyi sent a secret report, which made Zhu Yunwen, who wanted to win Zhou Wang, secretly grateful.
Kaifeng Mansion was a strategic hub, and Zhu Yunwen would never allow the vassal king to control it.
Regardless of whether the King of Zhou is guilty or not, he will leave Kaifeng because of this, with no possibility of returning.
Zhu Yunwen walked into the side room, looked at the sand table of the Ming Dynasty, took down a black pennant from the Kaifeng position, picked up the sun and moon flag, and inserted it in the Kaifeng position.
"The matter of Kaifeng should be put aside."
Zhu Yunwen breathed a sigh of relief and walked slowly around the sand table, staring at the position with the black flag in the sand table.
"Among the nine great fortress kings, only four are left. King Zhu Su of Gu is in Xuanfu, King Zhu Zhu of Qing is in Ningxia, King Zhu Mei of Su is in Ganzhou, and King Zhu Quan of Liao is in Daning!"
Zhu Yunwen stopped and stared at the area of Daning.
King Gu, King Qing, and King Su are not of concern. Only King Zhu Quan of Liao is the most troublesome person. He is brave, strategic, influential, and the core figure who contacts and controls the three guards of Duoyan. Once he is touched, everything will be destroyed. Will Ning become unstable? If he is not moved, can Daning still be the territory of the Ming Dynasty?
Zhu Yunwen was not sure of Zhu Quan's plans. History only records his ambition that only sprouted but did not grow. The person who extinguished the fire of his ambition was called Zhu Di.
But there is no Battle of Jingnan at the moment, and Zhu Di will not take away Prince Ning's Duoyan Guards and take him south. He has enough time and space to slowly ferment his ambitions.
After walking out of the room, Zhu Yunwen summoned Yue Sihai from the Security Bureau and said: "Send a message to Liu Changge to be wary of Prince Ning. At the same time, he also sent a message to Sheng Yong, telling him not to be careless and to be careful."
After Yue Sihai heard about it, he quickly went to make arrangements.
At night, the cold moonlight shines on the vast fields. To the north of the fields is a dense forest.
The old boatman slumped down next to a tree, exhausted physically and mentally. He looked palely at the short figure walking slowly not far away, and shouted reluctantly: "Is it impossible to escape after all?"
The rustling footsteps got closer and closer, and a cold breath blew on the old boatman's face.
The old boatman looked at the powerful man who was only about five feet tall. He actually had three big knives on his back, and those big knives did not seem to be the Xiuchun knife worn by the Security Bureau.
"You're not from the Security Bureau?"
The old boatman asked with narrowed eyes.
Guo Luan stopped, moved the corner of his mouth slightly, and said coldly: "Are you still running away like a mouse? If you don't run away, I will use my knife."
The old boatman stood up and said tremblingly: "Did King Zhou ask you to kill me?"
Guo Luan reached out and took out two knives. The knives were staggered in front of him and made a clear golden sound: "I like talking to corpses, not to living people. What do you want to know? When you die, I will I’ll tell you!”
The old boatman watched Guo Luan take out the sword and quickly turned around and ran. However, his steps were unsteady and he stumbled and fell to the ground. When he turned around to look, Guo Luan was already in front of him. The two swords were like the god of death, suddenly coming.
call out!
The arrow breaks through the air!
Guo Luan subconsciously raised the knife in front of him to protect him. With a "ding" sound, Guo Luan took a step back and looked at the pure iron arrow that fell to the ground. With a murderous look in his eyes, he shouted sternly: "You can use a two-stone bow." There are not many people, so who can come out and die!"
