Daming heir

Chapter 407

However, the military officers were very calm and calm this time.

They just watched calmly the large number of civil servants kneeling on the ground and impeaching Zhang Zhiyuan.

It seemed that Zhang Zhiyuan did not belong to the military officer team of the Ming Dynasty.

Baiguan was determined to be tough in front of the emperor this time.

Sun Gou'er, who was standing in the corner of the top floor of the majesty's rank, swished his gaze at the humerus ministers in the imperial court.He clasped his hands, lowered his eyes, and turned sideways silently, looking at the emperor sitting on the dragon chair.

As long as His Majesty the Emperor gives an order, his grandson Gou'er can call the imperial guards around and send all the stunned officials into the Imperial Prison.

But Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting on the dragon chair at the moment, didn't have a trace of anger on his face, and even had a smile on his face.

He just quietly watched the officials in front of His Majesty's steps, without saying anything.

Crown Prince Zhu Biao sat aside, looking a little surprised.

Today's matter, I am also completely ignorant, which is very unreasonable.

Zhu Biao looked sideways at His Majesty, and among the crowd kneeling to impeach Zhang Zhiyuan, several people from Zhan Shifu in the Eastern Palace appeared in Zhu Biao's sight.

These people are all old people in Zhan Shifu's house. They have talked about everything in the past, but now they are quietly seconding the impeachment.

Officials are self-defeating.

Zhu Biao couldn't help but look up at the old man on the dragon chair.

Today's matter, only the old man can decide to solve it.

Xia Yuanji quietly moved to Xiejin's side, clasping his hands together, but with a little excitement on his face: "I'm afraid your student in the official department will get busy in a while."

Xie Jin frowned and turned to look at Xia Yuanji: "How can there be so many people available, I hope His Majesty will not be too angry this time."

"They are forcing the palace, do you think His Majesty can spare them?" Xia Yuanji disapproved, curled his lips and his eyes flickered.

Xie Jin's eyes were dim: "They are afraid."

"Scared?"

Xia Yuanji muttered aloud, and then his face revealed an expression of sudden realization.

He whispered: "They are afraid of Confucianism..."

Xie Jin did stare at Xia Yuanji with vague eyes: "Brother Wei Zhe, are you afraid?"

Xie Jin spoke in a low voice, but it was enough for Xia Yuanji to hear every word clearly.

There was a blank look on his face, and then he shook his head silently.

"The family in Qufu is at fault, so it's a crime. If it involves the world's cultural context... This is the foundation of my Central Plains Huaxia for thousands of years!"

Xie Jin sneered and said, "Why do you think Zhang Zhiyuan took tens of thousands of troops to Qufu?"

"I heard that under the command of the King of Yan, he has made many outstanding achievements and is deeply loved by the King of Yan. If it weren't for the Central Plains rebellion this year, he might have already been a vanguard general, conquering outside the Great Wall."

Xie Jin nodded and said, "That's the reason. If that's the case, Zhang Zhiyuan must know how to solve the Shandong Road issue completely. If so, what did the Kong family do?"

Xia Yuanji had learned from Xie Jin, and looked at the emperor above his rank.

He whispered: "No matter what, I am an official, and I am an official of Daming."

This is the answer to Xie Jin's question at the beginning.

Xie Jin nodded immediately, with a look of relief on his face.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was set up by the officials at the imperial gate to listen to politics, finally made a move.

Zhu Yuanzhang held his arm horizontally, pinching the sleeve robe with one hand, and his arm was shaking outwards.

He glanced casually: "What do the officials think about this matter?"

Zhai Shan, who felt that he was about to follow in the footsteps of Zhan Hui, the former Minister of the Ministry of Officials, heard the voice of the emperor from the steps of his majesty, and immediately trembled all over, bowed his hands and hugged the wat board, and left the train.

"Chen, the scholar of the Wenhua Palace, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Zhai Shan, is here."

Zhai Shan lowered his head, his eyes kept turning.

Obviously, the emperor asked himself to answer because he hoped that he could say what he wanted, but it was not easy to say it himself.

Zhai Shan searched for words, thought about the situation in Shandong Road, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, I think I can take another look."

As soon as he said this, it immediately attracted whispers from all over the place.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang was as stable as Mount Tai, just quietly watching His Majesty, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhai Shan heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, and then explained: "Although I don't understand military affairs, I also know that the battlefield is changing rapidly. Perhaps Zhang Zhiyuan has seized some opportunity to perform today.

If the court was worried, he sent a letter to Shandong to ask Zhang Zhiyuan, and ordered him to write clearly what he wanted to do.

Furthermore, today I just heard about it, but no one from the Confucian family has written it in person, let alone seen the memorial of Yan Shenggong, so why do you think that what Zhang Zhiyuan did was a traitor?
In the end, Chen also believed that Shandong was closer to Henan Road and farther away from Tiancheng.At this moment, the emperor's grandson is in Henan Road, with the right to His Majesty.Presumably Zhang Zhiyuan has an important military strategy, so he should present it in front of His Highness.

So I thought, why not take another look? "

Zhu Yuanzhang, who only wanted to get a buffer opportunity, would not go into the details of the reasons given by Zhai Shan in public. After all, he is a member of the Six Books, so what he said is naturally reasonable.

Zhu Yuanzhang patted the armrest directly and said, "Zhai Qing's words are reasonable, so I will follow Qing's words and have a look."

Most of the civil servants in Yingtian City knelt in front of him today.This is different from the previous admonitions and advances, but it is the same as when he deposed the prime minister for thousands of years.

Direct killing cannot solve the problem, it is placed in the last step.

Last time, they opposed the abolition of the prime minister, fearing that the emperor's authority was too strong, which led to a long confrontation and killing.

The same is the same, what they object to is not the arrogance of the arrogant soldiers, and the persistent local rebellion.

They were worried that the thousand-year-old family of saints would collapse under the hooves of horses.That will herald that the thousand-year-old Confucianism will be the same as when the prime minister was deposed.

They are even more worried about what will happen to them and their descendants if the disciples of the sage family lack a sage principle that can be used at will.

From the time when Confucianism was the only one in the Han and Wu dynasties, until the Sui and Tang dynasties opened the imperial examinations to obtain officials, and finally in the Song and Song dynasties, the emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats shared the world.

All rules and social operations revolve around the Confucian system.

Is the Ming Dynasty going to do something like depose a hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism alone?
Zhu Yuanzhang denied this possibility in his heart.

However, the response of the officials made him very dissatisfied.These people just heard a little wind, and they would make such a big commotion.

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes wandered back and forth between Yu Xin, Shangshu of the Ministry of Households, and Wang Jun, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry.

Sure enough, as Zhu Yuanzhang expected, the two did not comply.

Yu Xin knelt down and kowtowed, and shouted: "If the minister dies, the arrogant soldiers must be guarded against, and the domineering must be punished. If His Majesty can condone Daming's army and horses to commit traitors and harass Yan Shenggong's mansion today. In the future, if There is a large army startled in the forbidden area of ​​the palace, what does your Majesty think?"

"Bold!"

"Yu Xin, you are arrogant!"

Zhu Biao, who had been keeping silent all this time, was finally furious. He clapped his hands on the armrest of the chair, stood up and angrily reprimanded Yu Xin for his audacity and arrogant words.

Yu Xin bowed his head again, but he never felt timid: "My Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince, there are more than [-] civil servants in the Ming Dynasty, and countless small officials with pens. There are as many candidates as stars in the world every year. People who study hard and read well in the local area think they are the backbone. .

The imperial court ruled the world with benevolence and filial piety, but it committed violence in the home of the most holy teacher, supported the soldiers and respected themselves, did not listen to orders, had no eyes on the most holy teacher, and had no eyes on the court law.

If His Majesty does not punish Zhang Zhiyuan and others, what will the millions of Confucian scholars in the world think?So what do people in the world think?

The minister died admonishing, maintaining the Ming Dynasty, worrying about the country.Your Majesty, please punish Zhang Zhiyuan and others with capital punishment! "

After Yu Xin finished speaking, the kneeling officials in front of the Fengtian Hall once again shouted their voices like a tsunami.

Zhu Biao looked back at his old man.

The old man who came out of the bloody wind didn't seem to take these people's remonstrance into account.

With a sullen face, Zhu Biao said displeasedly: "In front of the emperor, how dare you call him a murderer."

Wang Jun, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, raised his head to look at the crown prince above the steps of his majesty, and bowed deeply to the ground with just one glance.

"Your Excellency, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, Wang Jun, impeachment for the rebellion in Henan Province and Shandong Province, in which officers and soldiers of the local garrison guards participated. The arrogant massacre caused disaster to the local people, causing the people to suffer from disasters and be displaced.

The minister dared to impeach the officers and soldiers of the local rebel guards, and the court should punish him with death, so as to deter the hearts of the people in the world who are not ministers.

Your Majesty has the courage to admonish, and asks Your Majesty to open the post of military supervisor of the Ming Dynasty. The Ministry of War and the Metropolitan Procuratorate are the key points. The imperial court sends supervisors to the army to supervise the troops abroad on behalf of the emperor and the court, so as to prevent disasters from breeding. "

"The minister waits for the second opinion!"

Wu Yang, the Baiguan Mountain in front of the Fengtian Hall is full of heroism, and the sound of seconding votes shakes a forest of birds in Zhongshan in the distance.

"It turns out that they are for this matter..."

Xia Yuanji sighed in a low voice.

In the civil servants' court, there are only officials who have studied psychology and a small number of officials who have not participated in the impeachment.

This represents the collective attitude of civil servants.

"presumptuous!"

"Bold!"

"Dare you?"

All of a sudden, the military officer, who was still silent, was furious in an uproar. Generals who commanded tens of thousands of troops and expanded their territories angrily turned to Wang Jun, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry who proposed the establishment of a supervisory army.

Dong Guan Bo He Rong said directly: "Wang Shangshu wants me to restore the old events of the two Song Dynasties?"

"Supervising the army today, tomorrow we have to make the formation plan. Are you doubting our loyalty to His Majesty? The supervising army will be held back by the army formation, and the generals will be restrained. At that time, we will lead the troops to fight, or you will command the thousands of troops of Ming Dynasty." Wanma!"

Chang Sen and Tang Li, who were in the front row of the military officers, looked at each other, both feeling a little helpless.

This gang of Laoshizi civil servants is just a lot of bad-hearted and evil-minded.

Is this to encircle Wei and save Zhao?
The two of them clasped their fists together and knelt down.

"Chen Changsen!"

"Chen Tangli!"

"The ministers receive the grace of the emperor, and the world enjoys the honor. If you go out, you will be the leader of the army, and if you enter, you will be a rich man. These are all bestowed by your majesty, and the ministers are grateful from the bottom of their hearts. The country is more important than Mount Tai. Minister Waiting to make a statement, I only have loyalty in my heart, and everything is decided by His Majesty."

The main voice was Tang Li, who yelled very loudly, while Chang Sen echoed the yelling, because there was no discussion, so he could only echo slowly, which seemed a bit like a duet.

Let the voice become louder and louder, echoing in front of Fengtian Hall.

He Rong and the others also reacted, and immediately put away the previous noise, lowered their heads silently, and knelt on the square floor tiles like Chang Sen and Tang Li.

Wang Jun was lowering his head at this time, looking sideways at the military officer train.

There are many reckless men in the army, but not all are stupid in the army, especially the meritorious generals of the Ming Dynasty who can appear here.

But Wang Jun was relentless.

He had already made up his mind to rescue the Confucian family in Qufu, ensuring that this statue of a saint can continue to provide assistance to the present and future generations is one of them; he involved the local rebellion with the participation of officers and soldiers from the imperial garrison guards, and took the opportunity to propose that the imperial court dispatch The matter of supervising the army is the second.

With the imperial court, there are occasional expeditionary troops to place supervisors, but there is no such thing in name.

This is the self-confidence of the founding emperor. He led his people to conquer the world. None of the generals in the dynasty ate in a big iron pot.

Wang Jun continued: "Soldiers are impermanent, and water is impermanent. Your Majesty and the generals and soldiers entrusted each other with their backs in the army. The ministers and others are very happy. My court is in harmony with the emperor and my ministers, and we are united as one. However, the Ming Dynasty must have a foundation for all generations. Can the children and grandchildren be like His Majesty? The ministers think that there is no one in my Ming Dynasty who can resemble Your Majesty's appearance, and I will not have the literary and martial arts and great achievements that Your Majesty has created throughout his life."

"The ministers are stupid, but fortunately His Majesty has attached great importance to them and added them to the six departments, and they are now officials. How dare the ministers not think about the king, and why my Ming Dynasty will last forever. The ministers can't sleep at night, lest the society will be in turmoil and the people of the Li people will suffer disaster."

"The country has its own laws. In the pre-Qin Dynasty, the Shang monarchs established their beliefs. They made clear the canonical punishments and severely punished them. But if there is lawlessness, the emperor will also blame himself."

"Henan Road is full of rebellions, and the officers and soldiers of the prefectural and county guards are involved in a wide range. If they are not punished severely, they will not be enough to deter the Daoists of the Ming Dynasty. It should also be like a river. The broken place needs to be blocked and reinforced. In order to prevent another military rebellion in the imperial court, the ministers and others Think deeply, only the Supervising Military Law is feasible."

"The method of supervising the army has existed since ancient times, and it is not unique to the Song Dynasty. As for the reason for supervising the army, I should summarize the wisdom of the predecessors and parallel the present, so that the old things of the Song Dynasty will not be revived, and the local officers and soldiers will not lose control."

After Wang Jun made a long speech, Yu Xin, the Minister of the Household Department who was kneeling beside him, raised his head.

The military commanders over there were already itching with hatred.

If you want to talk, you have to be the best at speaking, and what you say is clear and logical.

If not for the presence of Chang Sen and Tang Li today, there would really be a martial arts performance in front of Fengtian Hall.

Or a one-sided beating.

Yu Xin glanced at the meritorious generals in Beijing, clasped his hands and kowtowed to the top of the majesty's steps.

"Your Majesty, the majesty of the court's law cannot be lost. The family of saints has educated the Central Plains for thousands of years, and they cannot be humiliated and humiliated Confucius."

"Zhang Zhiyuan didn't respect the will of suppressing the rebellion, coerced orders to support troops, acted arrogantly and recklessly, besieged the Confucian mansion, spent gunpowder, and ignored the rebellion."

"Like Zhang Zhiyuan, who have no king or sage, they delay the war opportunity and waste the army."

"Sir, please behead Zhang Zhiyuan to rectify the court's law."

"My lord, please make an order to appease Yan Shenggong's mansion, so as to rectify the system of the country."

There were no more voices of seconding, but the officials kowtowed silently to the ground.

In front of Fengtian Hall, the emperor and his courtiers were in a stalemate.

Xia Yuanji looked at it in a daze for a while, and kept his gaze on Hubu Shangshu Yu Xin from time to time.

After a few glances, he felt a little tasteless again, so he looked at Xie Jin beside him: "Your students, I'm afraid they will fall into His Majesty's eyes this time."

Saying that, Xia Yuanji turned his head to look at the young officials standing behind him in the civil train.

Xie Jin shook his head and said, "They are still young, it's better to just wear their ears at this time."

After finishing speaking, Xie Jin also turned his head and looked at the group of students headed by Bai Yuxiu behind him. He shook his head slightly, and then resumed everything.

Xia Yuanji grumbled and hummed twice, but didn't care about these things.

He wanted Xie Jin to throw out a student to break the deadlock. Even if he would be hated by the officials in the court for a while, His Majesty would definitely keep it in mind.

That is Jane in the heart of the emperor.

In fact, what Xia Yuanji hoped most was that Bai Yuxiu, who had just taken up the post of head of the Anthology Department of the Ministry of Officials, could stand up at this time and break the deadlock.

Xie Jin is very protective of the calf.

In Xia Yuanji's view, it seems that this is just a case of calculating gains and losses, but he thinks that his students may not be high-ranking officials, but they must act fairly and brightly.

Being down-to-earth is the foundation of learning in the heart.

Zhu Biao on the steps was full of sullen anger, but it was difficult to vent it easily.

Regal prestige is not erected simply by shouting, beating and killing, kingly and domineering go hand in hand, there is spring breeze and rain, and there is thunderous thunder.

Today's impeachment by hundreds of officials can be said to be well-founded, but it is different from the current national policy chosen by the royal family.

Zhu Biao didn't need to turn his head to know how angry the calm old man behind him must be at the moment.

Just like when the prime minister was deposed.

At that time, it could be said that it was full of civil and military affairs, and everyone opposed it.

In the blink of an eye, Zhu Biao thought of countless ways to end today's imperial court hearing.

Just where no one expected it.

I saw a red embroidered dragon gown, which came in from the south of Fengtian Gate.

"His Majesty!"

"Father..."

"father."

"father……"

"Hurry up and save the child."

Amidst a series of howls, His Royal Highness King Qin of the Ming Dynasty, the second son of the clan, appeared in everyone's field of vision in an unusual but very agreeable manner.

On the dragon chair in front of Fengtian Hall, Zhu Yuanzhang hummed and chuckled twice.

Zhu Biao also turned his head and looked at the old man, and then looked at Zhu's second who was babbling and rushing here.

Zhu Xi ran all the way, no matter who was blocking him, he ran straight up the steps.And behind him, there are the imperial guards in the palace and the servants of the palace serving Zhu Xi. Seeing that Prince Qin ran away in many ways regardless, they were afraid that something would happen to Prince Qin, so they followed behind Zhu Xi , kept shouting.

But Zhu Xi chose not to die, from the middle position in front of the steps of Fengtian Temple to run up the steps.

For a moment, the entire Fengtian Hall was turned on their backs.

Zhu Yu has been in the Guanzhong all year round, and he is fat and strong. How can those weak civil servants be able to bear the running.

Plus those guards and servants who followed behind Zhu Xi.

All the officials who went out to impeach and act were basically caught up.

But Zhu Xi ran all the way to the bottom of the steps, and then lay down on the steps, using both hands and feet to climb to the top.

"Father, please save your son!"

Zhu Xi kept shouting, his face covered with sweat.

He didn't know that behind him, the countless officials were in a mess because of him.
