There was a brief silence in the main hall. Huang Youwei's words really shocked many people's faces and hearts.
They had just knelt down in three rows, and now there were only two of them, Da Lao Huang, who was waving flags and shouting, and Tong Haoran, whose body was trembling slightly.
Professional troller Tong Haoran's mind went blank at this moment. Everything happened too fast and too suddenly. By the time he reacted, he was already in boundless darkness.
Huang Youwei was not targeting him alone. When he saw other civil servants, they all stood up subconsciously and spoke as if announcing the name of a dish.
"Master Zhang Shunyun, the Chief Justice of Dali Temple, Wang Chengyong, the head of the Department of Rites, and Gong Miao, the head of the Department of Officials..."
Either it was because Big Old Huang had a good memory, he just glanced at them and found that everyone of the sixteen people was right. He even called out their names and official positions.
"My lords, what do you mean by this? You clearly want to agree with Sir Tong. Why, why do you want to withdraw to the class?"
Sixteen people greeted Huang Youwei's family eighteen times in the blink of an eye, at least eighteen times.
They are all high-ranking officials, and most of them are sons of aristocratic families. There are many servants in the house, countless fertile fields under their names, and countless tenants. If all these people are allowed to regain their freedom, who will serve them and who will help them? They farm the land, and whoever accepts their errands relies on just one word of "faith"? Are you kidding me? If one word of faith is enough, how can we get to where we are today? If one word of faith is all that matters, can the previous dynasty be destroyed? Isn't this a joke? Well, letters are required of others, we can't ask of ourselves, it's too nonsense.
What's even more ridiculous is that after Da Lao Huang dug the hole, he jumped in first, and others had to jump.
This is what makes Huang Youwei disgusting. Who in Beijing doesn’t know that Huang Youwei’s Huang Mansion actually has very little money. It’s all the property of his old baby Xu family. The Huang Mansion only has a few servants and a few acres of land. He If you "terminate" the contract, you can terminate the contract and you will lose a few dollars, which is not the case for others.
In response to that sentence, in many cases, the biggest asset of the rich is not money, but the poor. What is used to restrain the poor is the "contract" based on the law, not the word of faith.
You must know that the servants of each mansion are "bought". Basically, they pay a one-time payment and then let them work as cattle and horses for a lifetime. If they dare to escape, they are runaway slaves. If caught by the government, they will be punished. The basis is " Slave status".
Once you hand over your slave status to Jingzhao Mansion and make these people free, they will do nothing for you. It won't be nice to go to Four Seasons Villa, to the north of the city, or to build roads outside the city for Changyuan.
The emperor on the dragon throne breathed a huge sigh of relief. Every time Da Lao Huang made him do something like a roller coaster.
The emperor nodded to the civil and military men beside him, and Eunuch Suan began to take names.
Not to mention the sixteen civil servants, even Tong Haoran couldn't kneel down. His mind went blank, and he had caused harm to people all his life. When had he ever seen this kind of work? He lost eight hundred to himself and killed three thousand enemies. This is so stupid. Huang Youwei is not even far away from "three hundred", it would be good if he can pay thirty, and he will exchange it for thirty thousand!
"My lords, what do you mean?"
Da Lao Huang didn't just take out a knife, he stood up slowly and said coldly: "Did you know that there are 117 servants in Lord Tong's house alone, 42 shop clerks under the Tong family's name, and 600 acres of land?" Twenty-seven acres, 176 tenants, 244 "hidden households", a total of 479 people, a total of 479 people, 479 people need to be restored To be free, to educate the world, to educate the world with just one word of faith, you...are you going to let Master Tong's good intentions go down?"
Tong Haoran was suddenly startled, and his heart thumped. He was finally sure that he had been "trapped". Huang Youwei knew his family's property so well. It had obviously been planned for a long time, and even many people in the hidden house knew about it!
In fact, Tong Haoran also misunderstood. It was not Huang Youwei who targeted him, but Huang Youwei who targeted all civil servants and generals, that is, all court officials.
"Wait!"
Tong Haoran, who had worked hard for most of his life to have such a family, became anxious. He quickly stood up and shouted: "When did I say that I would restore the freedom of the servants in the mansion?"
"Master Tong, you can't play tricks on me."
Huang Youwei suddenly took a step forward and said sullenly: "Don't you educate the world, based on faith?"
"Yes... it's so true, but... it's just that if you abandon the contract, the servants in the mansion will..."
"What will happen!" Huang Youwei pressed forward step by step: "I will not be able to leave your Tong Mansion, but you just made it clear that you want to rely on faith to educate the world. If you only rely on books to date, the etiquette and music will collapse, it will shake the country, dynasty and society. "
"It's nonsense, I didn't say it!"
"Then what did you just say?"
"My officer is saying..."
"It is said that one should not write it down in a book, but rely on letters to educate the world!"
"Yes, that's true, it's just..."
"Just nothing."
"It's just...it's just that if there is no contract, the servants in the mansion may leave..."
"Hurrah."
Huang Youwei suddenly turned around, saluted the emperor on the dragon throne and said loudly: "Your Majesty, what's the truth? I'm a warrior, I'm a rough man, I'm a person who doesn't know the truth, I can't figure it out, Tong Haoran is the supervisory station Zhengshi, don't do it to others if you don't want to do it to yourself. He can't even educate the servants in his own house, but he talks about the education of the world and the world. Where does he get the face? He is so hypocritical that he speaks sincerely. I am ashamed to be associated with such hypocrisy. I am a disciple of the same palace!"
After saying that, Huang Youwei turned around and went back to work.
The next second, the generals of the Ministry of War all came out, including the right minister, and more than 20 people spoke in confusion.
"Your Majesty, I am impeaching Tong Haoran for having a hidden house in his house..."
"Your Majesty, I impeach the head of the Ministry of Rites..."
"Your Majesty, I impeach..."
"Your Majesty, minister..."
Tong Haoran felt like falling into an ice cave.
Now he faced two choices.
First, pretend B till the end, follow Huang Youwei’s words and set an example for the world, and return to before liberation overnight.
However, once he does this, other ministers will also do the same, which means that he has indirectly kidnapped the morals of other ministers. At that time, what everyone hates is not Han You or Huang Youwei, but him. The "role model" Tong Haoran will definitely end up dead without a burial place. He is the biggest "alien".
The second option is to fight to the end and then... be ruined.
A disgraced inspector, no, the inspector cannot be ruined, so he cannot even keep his official position.
Tong Haoran was on the verge of collapse. He could not think of a third option. He also knew that those civil servants hoped, expected, and demanded that he must choose the second path!
This is Da Lao Huang's killing move. The road is given to you, but there are not many roads. The first road is four roads, and the second road is the road of survival or death. Choose it yourself.
Huang Youwei returned to the class and stood alone, his eyes lowered, feeling a little impatient. He hurriedly finished the work and went down to court. He was a little hungry.
The emperor on the dragon throne finally spoke, looking very hesitant and confused.
"Then the Ministry of Punishment's work laws...are they promulgated, or are they based on faith..."
The civil servants popped out again.
"Your Majesty, Gonglu is good, Gonglu is good..."
"The people are illiterate, and education cannot be achieved overnight..."
"The new law of work and law is an urgent matter that I need to deal with in the Great Zhou Dynasty. It cannot be delayed..."
The emperor is still confused: "But I also feel that the supervisor is Tong Haoran, and what he said makes some sense."
"Your Majesty, please don't be deceived by this hypocrite. He can't even educate the servants in his own mansion. Impeachment can educate the world..."
"That's right. I'm also impeaching Tong Haoran. It's so shameless. Wow..."
"Tong Haoran is two-faced and unworthy of being a minister..."
"It is our great misfortune that Xiaoxiao is in a high position. I sincerely request your Majesty to severely punish Tong Haoran, a person with no faith and virtue..."
With a "plop", Tong Haoran collapsed to the ground, almost fainting.
Life and death, in an instant, in a few words of Huang Youwei, this is the court, this is Da Lao Huang.
