When the voice fell, everyone in the court couldn't believe their ears.
His Highness Taisun didn't even say anything about the problems at Jinling Military Academy. He didn't even bother to explain, so he directly ordered Chang Mao to be slapped.
"Your Highness, Taisun, secretly thought that Duke Zheng was also worried about the country and the people, so he went to the Jinling Military Academy to find out the truth. He should not be punished for this."
"Your Highness Taisun, the officials have the power to report rumors, open up channels for the court, correct lawlessness, shock all officials, and protect the law of the country. Although military generals do not have this power, it is true that those who lead troops in war care about military training. As it should be. Zheng Guogong pointed out the various shortcomings of Jinling Military Academy, but His Highness did not check or inquire, but instead convicted Zheng Guogong. The subordinates thought that this was unfair."
"Your Highness Taisun, I am now impeaching you for not following the rules when training soldiers at the Jinling Military Academy. You do not use swords, guns, bows and arrows. You act recklessly. In the name of military training, you are just having fun. Zheng He, the eunuch who presides over the military academy, is flattering and flattering. To flatter the emperor, to destroy the country's armaments and destroy the foundation of all ages, he should be killed to thank the world."
…
Officials one after another stood up one after another.
The words were fierce and generous.
Zhu Yunxuan watched with cold eyes and turned a deaf ear.
Several Jinyi guards came to the palace and Chang Mao was asked to take them down.
"I don't accept it!"
Chang Mao pushed away the Jin Yiwei who came to catch him.
"Why?"
"I did nothing wrong!"
"Shouldn't the Jinling Military Academy's random training of troops be severely punished?"
"As the Duke of Zheng, after serving as a distinguished minister, what's wrong with me investigating and correcting illegal things?"
"His Royal Highness Taisun wants to be demoted from the official position. I will refuse to obey until I die."
The hall suddenly became chaotic and noisy.
The officials were whispering to each other and discussing a lot.
Zhu Yunzhen snorted lightly.
Sure enough, without Lao Zhu, the behavior of these people was completely different.
If Lao Zhu issued an order, Chang Mao would be pulled down to beat him.
Even if there is no reason, no official dares to question it even if there is not even a word.
Chang Mao did not dare to resist openly.
In the final analysis, he, the emperor's grandson, did not have enough prestige.
As a prisoner, he can't keep things under control.
No wonder Lao Zhu was worried about this and wanted to test it by avoiding it.
Zhu Yunzhen stood up from the chair and stared coldly down.
At first, the officials were still discussing among themselves.
Gradually, some people realized something was wrong, slowly stopped, and finally returned to peace.
Although Zhu Yunzhen is young, his eyes are very sharp.
As they swept by, no official dared to look at him.
One by one, they lowered their heads and held their breath.
Zhu Yunxuan snorted coldly, looked at the Jinyi guards and said, "Didn't you hear Gu's order? Pull him down and beat him!"
"I don't - accept it!"
Chang Mao roared like thunder and waved his hands again, trying to push away the Jin Yiwei who wanted to take him.
"I have been ordered to supervise the country, handle government affairs, and act on behalf of the emperor. If Zheng Guogong disobeys, he is openly resisting the order, and he will be killed."
boom!
Although this voice was small, everyone in the court felt it was louder than Chang Mao's roar.
It was like thunder exploding.
brush!
brush!
brush!
Several Jinyi guards heard the order and immediately drew their swords.
Chang Mao was startled and looked at Zhu Yunzhen above.
But she saw him staring at her coldly, with murderous intent shooting out of his bright eyes.
Chang Mao felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet and spreading throughout his body.
At this moment, he suddenly understood that the other party really dared to kill him, rather than a verbal threat.
I am the Queen of Kaiping, has he thought about the consequences of killing me?
Thoughts flashed through Chang Mao's mind.
Given his status, if he were killed, the whole court would be in an uproar and the world would be shocked.
After all, the identity of the son of King Kaiping is indeed no small matter.
Although King Kaiping is no longer alive.
But among the military generals and nobles, I don’t know how many were brought out by my father Chang Yuchun.
One can imagine the sensation caused by killing him.
This is why Chang Mao dared to openly challenge Zhu Yunxuan in the name of impeaching the Jinling Military Academy in the court.
But Zhu Yunzhen doesn't seem to follow the routine.
Not even a little afraid?
Does he really want to kill himself?
Chang Mao suddenly remembered that Zhu Yunxuan's behavior had always been unpredictable and unpredictable.
When Wu Wanggeng's family was killed, the method was so vicious that the government and the public were shocked.
Although it was later found out that Wu Wanggeng was a descendant of the Pu family in Quanzhou, he had the intention to rebel, so he was not punished.
But thinking about it carefully, Zhu Yunzhen could have entered the palace first to start the memorial and hand it over to the supervisor for investigation.
The Ming Dynasty has been decided, where can Wu Wanggeng and his family go?
Can they really cause rebellion?
But Zhu Yunxuan did not do this. Instead, he went directly to Jinyiwei to mobilize troops and massacre the Wu family.
This person is a madman and cannot be treated with common sense.
The more Chang Mao thought about it, the more he felt cold all over his body.
If you continue to fight against him, I'm afraid there will really be blood splattered in the court hall today.
After all, he is Lao Zhu's grandson and the current emperor's grandson.
Even if Lao Zhu blames him afterwards, how much punishment can he receive?
And he was really finished.
Although Chang Mao is a playboy who has been arrogant and arrogant since he was young, he is not stupid.
Seemingly reckless and daring.
In fact, I was very afraid of death.
A good man does not suffer immediate losses.
But he didn't want to show weakness too much.
"I'll get the board myself!"
He waved his hands and walked out of the hall.
The arrogance is still arrogant and the mouth is still tough.
In Chang Mao's view, even if he suffers a blow today, it can become his bragging rights in the future.
He was not afraid of power, spoke out and gave advice, and dared to challenge the emperor's grandson.
If you tell me about such a feat, which dandy wouldn't be able to admire it?
Why don't you just call him big brother?
How about saying something amazing?
So what if I get hit?
From now on, I will be able to hold my head high in front of my friends.
That's why he dropped such harsh words.
The loser does not lose the formation.
There is no shame in being beaten.
Zhu Yunzhen didn't say a word.
Jin Yiwei followed behind and took him down.
After a while, there was the sound of snapping boards and howling like a killing pig.
It seems that this guy is very afraid of pain and is not as tough as he says.
All the officials in the court suddenly fell silent.
Even Zheng Guogong received the board, so naturally they did not dare to say anything more.
What does His Highness Taisun mean by this move?
Do you intend to use this to establish your authority?
Many officials secretly communicated with their eyes.
As for the meaning conveyed in it, it can only be understood and cannot be expressed in words.
After a while, a leader of the Jin Yiwei came to the palace to report that he had finished twenty strokes.
Just when the officials thought that the matter was finally over, Zhu Yunzhen's voice sounded again.
"Is Zheng Guogong convinced? Have you admitted your mistake?"
"If Duke Zheng is not convinced and refuses to admit his mistake, then I will add another twenty pieces."
"When do you give in and admit your mistake? When do you stop?"
Zhu Yunzhen had already seen through Chang Mao's thoughts.
This is because I want to learn the tricks of civil servants to give advice and give myself more bragging rights.
How could he let Chang Mao get his wish?
As soon as this example comes out, shouldn't all these people rush to imitate it and be proud of being punished?
In the future, there will really be no peace in the court.
All the officials in the court were shocked.
If Chang Mao never admits his mistake, won't he be beaten to death?
Huang Zicheng stepped forward and wanted to give advice.
However, he saw Qi Tai next to him signaling with his eyes and gently shaking his head.
Huang Zicheng's heart trembled.
The actions of His Highness the Grand Sun are truly unpredictable.
But since he can beat Chang Mao, can't he beat Huang Zicheng?
The incident at the military academy was originally meant to test him.
There is no need to dwell too much on this matter.
So it's not worth it to get a slap in the face.
Anyway, it’s not their civil servants who are being beaten now.
Today's court meeting, the generals and nobles are all here.
If their people don't stand up for Chang Mao, why should he get involved?
In the court, many military officers and nobles were indeed dissatisfied.
However, their eyes all fell on Lan Yu in front of them.
Among the military officers and nobles in the dynasty, Lan Yu is the leader.
The military merit is the greatest and the official position is the highest.
Others will naturally act based on his look.
Not to mention, Lan Yu's sister is Chang Yuchun's wife.
Chang Mao is his nephew.
Unexpectedly, Sapphire only sees the nose with the eyes, and the heart with the nose.
It seemed as if this matter had nothing to do with him, and he had no intention of interceding for Chang Mao at all.
All the generals and nobles immediately did not dare to say anything.
My family members don’t speak, so what do they say?
Many people secretly guessed that Chang Mao would probably die without admitting his mistake.
But Zhu Yunzhen's words have been spoken, and I'm afraid he won't take them back.
Today, Chang Mao will be beaten to death.
This matter will definitely not end here, and there will be an uproar later.
However, just when they thought that Chang Mao, the son of Chang Yuchun, must be strong-willed, willing to die and not surrender, Chang Mao's begging for mercy rang out outside.
"Your Highness Taisun, I...I...I know my mistake! I know my mistake!"
