Daming Jingtai: I am the eternal benevolent king

Chapter 172 I don't kill people, I feel bad, go and kill everyone who is related to Zhang Jin by marriage!
Hu Xin lay on the ground, sweating like rain.

Can't hide it!

He confessed and admitted that he took the exam for others!
Bai Gui narrowed his eyes, it's no wonder that Shu Liang is trusted by His Majesty, but he has some real skills.

"Exam?"

Shu Liang's eyes flickered: "Make a list of your test takers, and don't miss anyone."

"Since it is a test for you, your level of scriptures should be extremely high. There is no need to plagiarize."

"Then why are you using a cheat suit?"

Shu Liang couldn't understand.

"The sinner has nothing to hide, really nothing to hide!"

Hu Xin cried: "The sinner's level of righteousness is average, and he cheats with his clothes every time!"

But Shu Liang felt something was wrong: "There is no one in the list for the next test, who are you taking the test for?"

"Sinners take the provincial examination for others! This is the first time to participate in the general examination!" Hu Xin confessed.

Shu Liang stared at him.

Hu Xin lowered his head and kept crying.

Bai Gui coughed lightly: "Eunuch Shu, it's time to report to His Majesty."

"Not urgent!"

Shu Liang looked away and looked at Bai Gui: "There is something going on here."

"No. 20 in the foreign country test. Do I need to use cheating clothes to take the country test for someone else?"

"Since you make money by taking exams, you should have good knowledge, otherwise no one will hire you."

"And wearing a cheating suit, cheating blatantly."

"Are you insulting me in my head?"

"Tell me, who in this tribute courtyard has something to do with you? Tell me!"

Hu Xin's expression changed drastically.

I'm really afraid of what's coming!
The owner of the Dongchang factory, he was so unruly, he refused to let go of any details.

In a few words, he poked the secret deep in his heart.

However, no matter how big his background is, he is no bigger than the emperor. Of course he knows who is behind Dongchang.

"Another way to ask me, who is protecting you in this tribute courtyard?"

Cheating with cheating clothes completely ignores the field tour.

What does it say?
The tour was bought.

But this morning, the palace suddenly issued an order to order Dongchang to patrol the field, which led to the cheating out of control, but Hu Xin, who had already entered the field, did not know.

That's why he blatantly used the cheating clothes to cheat, because he knew that the tour would not be publicized.

Just copied with great fanfare.

"Nobody protects the sinner, really!"

"Eunuch, please believe the sinner, the sinner knows his mistake."

"I beg my father-in-law to punish the criminal!" Hu Xin kept kowtowing.

This aroused Shu Liang's interest instead.

Slowly squatting down: "You don't have to be afraid, point it out to me, isn't it him?"

He pointed at Bai Gui.

Bai Gui was so angry that his seven orifices smoked, and the slight affection he had just had for Shu Liang dissipated in an instant.

"How can I destroy my own future as a dignified official?"

Bai Gui was furious: "Mr. Shu, don't spout blood!"

He, Bai Gui, is this year's chief examiner, and all candidates must respect him as their teacher, and this year's Jinshi are all his students.

The emperor is expanding his team.

How could he foolishly help those scumbags cheat?
Have you forgotten the example of Wang Wen?
He, Bai Gui, is the one who aspires to be the prime minister!

"Hu Xin, in this tribute courtyard, I and Bai Shangshu have the highest official ranks."

"Since it's not him, who it is, you can tell."

"I forgive you not to die."

Shu Liang pinched his chin: "If you are ignorant, you will not be the one who died, but your whole family!"

"Think carefully!"

"Speak again!"

Hu Xin's body was shaking, and he wanted to cover it up.

But Shu Liang has sharp eyes, and he is just an ordinary student who is only good at studying and not good at socializing and negotiating, so he is naturally seen through at a glance.

"It's Dai Ying, the inspector!" Hu Xin said.

"Dai Ying?"

Shu Liang was very unfamiliar with this name, and looked up at Bai Gui.

Bai Gui had never heard of this name either.

There is no such person among the officials of the scientific expedition this year.

"It seems that you are dishonest?"

Shu Liang laughed: "Don't say it now, when you go to Dongchang Prison, you will say everything."

"My lord, the sinner has said everything! That man's name is indeed Dai Ying! Just Dai Ying!" Hu Xin cried.

"Could it be a pseudonym?" Bai Gui asked.

"Hmph, the pseudonym is also simple."

"My lord has ordered the officers to be arrested."

"Let him go and see one by one."

"It's clear at a glance which one is Dai Ying."

Shu Liang stood up: "Bai Shangshu, you should be very clear about how much the emperor attaches importance to the imperial examination."

"When something like this happens, everyone has nothing to eat."

"There are some things that need your cooperation."

This is true.

Now that the court is understaffed, the emperor attaches great importance to this imperial examination.

Bai Gui suppressed the disgust in his heart: "Please tell me."

Shu Liang whispered a few words in his ear.

Renshou Palace.

The new Renshou Palace was built according to the original plan. The only difference is that outside the Renshou Gate, two small halls were erected for the Empress Dowager Sun to worship Buddha and Taoism.

The Empress Dowager Sun is dressed in a splendid attire, graceful and luxurious.

"How cruel!"

"He is waiting for Aijia to beg him!"

Empress Dowager Sun stood up slowly: "Expelling Ai's younger brother, nephew, and niece from the palace, is this punishing Sun Shaozong?"

"No!"

"This is punishing the Sun family!"

"Sun Shaozong was guilty, so you killed Sun Shaozong, why implicate the Sun family?"

"Come here, take out Aijia's plain clothes and change clothes for Aijia!"

"Holy Mother!" The serving maid knelt on the ground.

Empress Dowager Sun looked sideways at her.

"The Holy Majesty ordered all the palace people to watch the ceremony, slaves, slaves..." the palace woman sobbed, obviously afraid.

They are all young ladies, it is hard enough to serve in the palace.

But to see such a bloody thing.

The emperor was cruel.

But she didn't dare to say it out, she was Luo Qi's granddaughter, named Luo Xiu'e, she was not welcomed in the palace, it was the Empress Dowager Sun who protected her everywhere, and she survived until now.

Naturally, she will work hard for Queen Mother Sun.

"Get up, follow Ai's family, and go to see the emperor." Empress Dowager Sun walked slowly towards the apse.

The maids in her palace are all the thorns in the palaces, and she is in control.

She changed into plain clothes and her hair was disheveled.

"Holy Mother, you are like this..." Luo Xiu'e wanted to say that it was rude.

"What are you afraid of?"

"The emperor is the son of the Ai family!"

"A mother with disheveled hair can't see her son?"

Empress Dowager Sun gritted her molars and said.

This son, who is unfilial to his mother, should be sentenced to death!

Luo Xiu'e prostrated herself on the ground, not daring to say a word.

"Xiu'e, get up."

Empress Dowager Sun is always more lenient to Luo Xiu'e.

Even she is lenient and benevolent to the ladies in the palace, and has always been generous in rewards.

Compared with Tang Guifei, who is digging and searching, Tang Guifei pales in comparison.

Naturally, it is more popular in the palace.

Don't look at these official ladies, they are often compared to those maids from peasant families.

"Slaves thank the Holy Mother for their grace!"

Luo Xiu'e stood up and wanted to support Queen Mother Sun.

Empress Dowager Sun doesn't need it.

He didn't take the phoenix car either, so he walked to Qianqing Palace like this.

As soon as Empress Dowager Sun left Renshou Palace, the news spread to Qianqing Palace.

"Is this a way to show me off?"

"Destroy my reputation, let people in the world poke my back and call me unfilial!"

The corners of Zhu Qiyu's mouth curled up: "Hmph, Feng Xiao, please invite the Holy Mother and Empress Dowager to watch the ceremony."

"My lord, the Holy Mother is dressed in plain clothes, as if attending a funeral. If you don't go to greet her, I'm afraid your reputation will be even worse."

Feng Xiao reported carefully.

He wanted to persuade, but dared not speak up.

"Her brother died, isn't it just a funeral?"

Zhu Qiyu restrained his smile: "Do you want me to meet her and then kneel down for her?"

"Congzhen killed Zhang Jin, do you still have a reputation?"

"Pass down the decree, take away Sun Xianzong's position as a magistrate of Jinyiwei, whip thirty lashes, and exile in Hetao."

This is head-to-head.

Now that the reputation is rotten, does the emperor still care about the reputation?

You take me as a soft persimmon?

Then I'll see who has a stiffer neck!

Feng Xiao didn't dare to persuade him.

Hurry up and go out of the hall to meet the Empress Dowager Sun: "Let the Holy Mother speak and invite the Holy Mother to go to Fengtian Hall to watch the ceremony."

Empress Dowager Sun turned pale.

The emperor doesn't allow her to fight!

You killed my grandson's family, don't you allow me to cry?
What a domineering emperor!

"Holy Mother, the emperor is in a fit of anger. He just seized Sun Xianzong's position and sent him to Hetao."

Empress Dowager Sun turned pale again.

As long as she moves forward, someone from the Sun family will be expelled from the capital.

As long as she dares to watch the ceremony, the emperor will kill the entire Sun family!
See whose neck is stiff!

She couldn't help but stop: "Is the emperor even missing his aunt?"

"The Lady of Our Lady."

Feng Xiao almost begged: "The emperor was pissed off by Zhang Jin, and it was because of his anger."

"You are the emperor's mother after all, there is no overnight feud between mother and son."

"When the emperor calms down, he will naturally let Mrs. Sun go."

"I beg the Holy Mother to return to the palace!"

The emperor can not be famous.

But as a slave, you have to consider the consequences.

The border is fighting, and the capital is empty. It is not the time for the emperor to be willful. At this time, he must bear it and not make mistakes.

Empress Dowager Sun's chest heaved: "Feng Xiao, go tell the emperor that the Sun family is also his uncle!"

She turned back angrily.

"Slaves obey the order of the Holy Mother!" Feng Xiao heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the face was not completely torn.

Now the world is in turmoil, the border is fighting, and the defenses in Beijing and China are empty, especially in the palace and Mobei Palace, there must be no disturbances.

The best solution is to hide a storm in the invisible.

Feng Xiao trotted back to the palace.

"When did the Empress Dowager become so easy to talk to?"

Zhu Qiyu squinted her eyes: "Doesn't she just want to ruin my reputation and carry the eternal infamy?"

"Zhang Jin angered me and made me admit my violent side to the world."

"Let the world see clearly that I am a tyrant."

"Then I will show you the cruelty!"

"Go, kill everyone who is related to Zhang Jin!"

Pfft!
Feng Xiao knelt on the ground: "Please calm down, the emperor!"

"The Xunchen tree has big roots and deep roots, and the various families marry each other to form a whole."

"If you blame your in-laws, I'm afraid it will cause the ministers to retaliate."

"It's troublesome now, please calm down, my lord!"

That's right.

The ministers are married to each other and become one with each other.

Even the emperor was willing to marry the princess to the ministers to win over this group.

Originally, Zhu Qiyu's killing of Uncle Pengcheng and Uncle Hui'an had already terrified the ministers, and if he continued to kill them, the title would be worthless.

The political ramifications of this incident are bigger and worse.

Zhang Jin is insignificant, and he will die when he dies, but he must not expand it.

"Why is it that I took back the imperial power, but it is hindered everywhere?"

Zhu Qiyu was dejected: "This can't be done, that can't be done, what's the point of being an emperor?"

"Xunchen cannot be killed, and civil servants cannot be moved."

"Who do I turn my fire on to?"

"Are you?"

No wonder the former emperors liked to kill eunuchs, because the emperor was incompetent, so he could only kill his servants to vent his anger.

"If the emperor is angry, please kill the slaves!" Feng Xiao kowtowed.

"fart!"

Zhu Qiyu was annoyed: "You are all loyal, if I kill you, wouldn't it be irrelevant? Do you think I am really a fool?"

"Feng Xiao, why do you think my emperor has become more and more useless?"

"It's no wonder that the first emperor ignored the government and went to play with all his heart."

"It's really tiring to manage this world!"

Feng Xiao felt the same way: "As long as the emperor gives birth to a dragon heir, everything will be solved."

"Yes!"

"A few years ago, I used medicine every day for the sake of my heirs, but it still didn't work."

"My biggest weakness is that I don't have a son!"

Zhu Qiyu was very decadent, but his eyes were full of killing intent.

I don't have it, so why do you have it?

But at this time.

Qin Cheng outside the door knelt at the door and reported: "My lord, Taifu Hu is asking to see you."

"Xuan come in." Zhu Qiyu's face was gloomy.

He felt uncomfortable if he didn't kill anyone.

Hu Wei came in cautiously, and saw the killing intent in the emperor's eyes head-on, and his heart skipped a beat.

Quickly kneel down and salute.

Zhu Qiyu didn't let him stand up, and after a long time, he said: "For whom did the old master come to intercede?"

"The old minister is here to relieve His Majesty's worries!" Hu Wei said softly.

Zhu Qiyu opened his eyelids: "Zhang Jin is right."

"I don't have a son, sooner or later I will be alone."

"He's not wrong, it's better to return the throne to King Mobei who has a son as soon as possible."

"To avoid being poked in the back by future generations and scolding me for occupying the magpie's nest."

"Are you right?"

Why are you here again?
Hu Wei smiled wryly: "Your Majesty is in good health, and he will surely give birth to a dragon heir."

"Can you promise?"

Hu Yan's face was full of bitterness.

He came to bridge the gap in the hearts of the emperor and the officials.

It is natural to satisfy the emperor's mind.

"The old minister can guarantee that His Majesty will give birth to a dragon heir!" What can Hu Mei say, dare to say?
Zhu Qiyu sneered twice.

"The old minister is a doctor. He checks His Majesty's pulse every day. He knows that His Majesty is healthy and strong like a cow, and there is no problem."

Hu Yicai is very obedient.

"What's the use of being healthy? Not having a son is my deathbed."

"Just now the Empress Dowager came to question me in plain clothes and disheveled hair."

Zhu Qiyu sighed: "Old Madam Fu, I will tell you the truth."

"It's enough for me to be the emperor, to be the family of Daming, to worry about the livelihood of the people in the world, to sleep long and sleep at night, and to be born early."

"But no one understands me, they only criticize me, insult me, and resent me."

"I'm tired, so tired."

Zhu Qiyu closed his eyes again, full of exhaustion.

"Women's Temple is not allowed to interfere in politics! This is the instruction of the Taizu ancestor!"

Hu Wei said loudly: "Even if the Holy Mother is His Majesty's aunt and the Empress Dowager, the rules must not be broken. Your Majesty, please punish Sun Shi!"

He stood unequivocally on the emperor's side.

"My aunt is also a mother, I dare not bear the bad name of being unfilial!"

Zhu Qiyu was very aggrieved: "But Mrs. Sun is in the midst of blessings and doesn't know her blessings."

"What did his family want, I didn't give them a reward?"

"Sun Jizong is only Uncle Huichang, but I made him a marquis and gave him a world certificate!"

"Do you think his family is worthy?"

"Can the military exploits really rival the Marquis's?"

"Don't rely on the empress dowager!"

"As a son, I am benevolent and righteous."

"But how did Sun Shaozong repay me?"

"He is in the palace, but he has private affairs outside the palace."

"What is he going to do?"

"Do you want to usurp the throne?"

"Old Madam Fu, do you think I shouldn't punish him?"

"Killing him, is the punishment too light?"

"Humph!"

"I just killed him, and before Sun's move, the Empress Dowager can't sit still."

"I am the son of a concubine who inherits the great lineage, and my aunt is my heaven, how dare I disobey!"

"Now the world will poke my spine!"

"Wouldn't I be scolded to death by the history books of later generations when the crown prince succeeds me a hundred years later!"

"Instead of being so tired, just abdicate and let the virtuous."

Zhu Qiyu kept sighing: "Old Madam Fu, this emperor, I really have had enough."

"It's far less enjoyable than being the King of Tan."

"real."

Zhu Qiyu wept hypocritically.

Hu Ming understood that the emperor wanted to deal with the Sun family, but he didn't want to speak up in person, which would ruin the relationship between relatives, so he let Hu Wei take the blame.

"Tomorrow, the old minister will invite all courtiers to write a letter to severely punish Mrs. Sun! Return the world to a bright future!" Hu Yan said loudly.

"Old Madam Fu is concerned about the country and the people, she is worthy of being my right-hand man."

Zhu Qiyu sighed: "But Mrs. Sun..."

"forget it."

"When the time comes, the queen mother will make trouble again. How will my son end up?"

"Forget it!"

Hu Ming widened his eyes.

What do you mean, let us write a letter to abolish the Queen Mother?
How dare you think!

It would be more enjoyable if you let the Queen Mother die suddenly.

But the emperor would not get his hands dirty.

"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Huichang, the old minister must give His Majesty an explanation!"

Hu Wei kept compromising.

Because the civil servants got cheap, the emperor was angry, angered him, overturned the table, and killed all the civil servants who were doing things secretly, wouldn't it be cheap by then, Xungui?

He is now using Xungui as a favor, and it is Xungui who is unlucky, what does it have to do with civil servants?
However, Xungui is the emperor's basic board, which makes the emperor feel uncomfortable.

This is also a small pit.

"Forget it, don't mention it."

"I disregarded the feelings of relatives, and dealt with Uncle Pengcheng and Uncle Hui'an with harsh laws. People in the world will definitely call me mean and ungrateful."

"The imperial grandmother is underground, is she also scolding my unfilial grandson for being too heartless?"

"I don't need this reputation, but I'm afraid I can't bear the notoriety of not being filial to the emperor's grandmother."

Zhu Qiyu said quietly: "My legal system comes from the first emperor, and the first emperor came from Emperor Renzong. Tell me. How should I end up?"

Legitimacy and reputation.

These are two of the four corners of the dragon chair on which the emperor sits.

With the two corners collapsed, he could not sit firmly on the throne.

"Your Majesty, does Tang Zong and Song Zu have a good reputation?"

"But thousands of years have passed, and future generations only remember their glorious achievements!"

"Han Gao Han Wu, how come it has a good reputation?"

Hu Wei said calmly: "What good is fame? It's just mediocrity!"

"Taizu and Taizong killed people like hemp, who dare to scold them now?"

"Your Majesty, you should put your mind on your achievements and government affairs. Your reputation is not important at all."

But the emperor didn't nod and didn't allow him to get up.

The explanation did not speak to his heart.

The emperor wanted him to continue.

"Fame is a double-edged sword."

Hu Wei gritted his teeth and said: "When your Majesty has a good reputation, you can't do things with your hands and feet, and you can't do it with all your strength. You have to take your reputation into consideration;"

"Now that His Majesty has a bad reputation, you don't need to worry about it, and you can do as you please."

"And your majesty's legal system did come from the first emperor, from Emperor Renzong, but it has nothing to do with the Zhang family."

"If you talk about relatives and estrangements, you are the grandson of Empress Xiancheng and Filial Piety."

"That Mrs. Sun has enjoyed wealth and honor for three generations, but now she has made a big mistake, and it is time for her to die!"

"The veteran would like to jointly write a letter to His Majesty, please kill Zhang's family!"

Hu Yi slammed loudly.

In order to dispel the emperor's knot, he spared no effort.

Zhu Qiyu's eyes lit up: "Then I want to kill all Zhang Jin's in-laws, can I?"

"Can!"

No nonsense.

Kill whoever you want!All the old ministers obeyed!
"Old lady Fu! Only with you can I come to this day! I know that time is not wasted!" Zhu Qiyu grabbed Hu Min and helped him up.

It's over!

Hu Mi's forehead was covered with sweat, and his back was soaked.

He was really afraid that the emperor would become a complete tyrant and lead Daming to die.

"I was calculated by the Zhang family, bullied by the Sun family, and the empress dowager saw my jokes."

"I thought I was really alone."

Zhu Qiyu said emotionally: "But I don't want to, I have a good minister and assistant like you by my side, I am content!"

This means that Zhang Jin's relatives are really going to be killed?
That blow surface is too big!
Most of the honorable ministers will go in.

"If those ministers are loyal to His Majesty, they should kill their wives to prove their loyalty!" Hu Wei went crazy.

In order to bridge the gap in the emperor's heart, he even said such violent words.

After being recorded by Qi Jilang, his reputation was also ruined.

It will be recorded in the history books as: Faint ruler and minister, a natural couple.

Wife killing testimony?
Zhu Qiyu was shocked by Hu Yan: "Old Madam Fu, although I have a bad reputation, I am a good person."

Are you a nice person?

Shame on you!

Hu Wei was dumbfounded, do you really want Xunchen to kill his wife to preach?
"Forget it, killing too many people, it seems that I am too mean and ungrateful."

These words made Hu Ming heave a sigh of relief.

Not only to kill his wife, but also to kill his son and husband. I don't know how many ministers will be affected by this matter.

"After a while, find an excuse and send them all to Hetao to guard the border, so as not to worry about it."

hiss!
Hu Yan gasped, you really hold a grudge.

It seems that Zhang Jin really scolded you anxiously.

In front of the emperor, scolding that the family has no son, if the emperor does not kill a blood flow, he will be a benevolent emperor through the ages.

"The old minister obeys the order!" Hu Wei dared not disobey.

"Why is the old lady so uncharacteristically today, what do I say?" Zhu Qiyu wondered.

"Your Majesty is the emperor who bears the fate of the sky. Killing and letting go are all at the same time. Veteran officials dare not disobey His Majesty!"

"Hahaha!" Zhu Qiyu laughed triumphantly.

I am the emperor, if I don't have a son, I am also the emperor!

When we were talking happily.

Feng Xiao came in: "Go back to the emperor, Mr. Shu found out that the students cheated!"

Zhu Qiyu narrowed his eyes and reached out to take the memorial.

After reading it, pass it to Hu Wei.

"Thanks to Shu Gonggong's carefulness, the behind this Hu Xin will not be so simple."

Hu Yi's heart was full of waves.

Just healed the rift in the emperor's heart and brought the emperor back to normal.

In the end, Wen Chen uncovered the scar with his own hands and told the emperor that we all lied to you!
Finished!

All previous efforts were in vain.

These fools even handed over the handle of the knife to the emperor to stab the civil servants to death!

Zhang Jin's matter, without the help of civil servants, fools would not believe it.

The emperor was so angry that he could only endure it for the time being during the troubled times.

Hu Wei helped the emperor smooth again, and finally made the emperor happy.

As a result, Tian sent a pillow and forced the emperor to kill.

"check!"

Zhu Qiyu's tone was serious: "Check it out!"

"No matter who it is, as long as it is involved, everyone will be killed!"

"Those involved, punish the Nine Clans!"

"Leave it to Dongchang for investigation, Feng Xiao, go deliver the decree!"

This is not a case of Chake exam fraud.

These are all the civil servants that Emperor Zha suspects!

Who arranged for Zhang Qi, who made the rumors that the emperor had no children rampant, and who condemned the emperor verbally and in writing?

Find them all!

Kill them all!
This is the deep meaning of the emperor.

"Your Majesty!"

Hu Wei knelt on the ground and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this matter still needs to be investigated. First find this Dai Ying, and then investigate step by step."

Zhu Qiyu interrupted with a wave of his hand: "Investigate step by step, and finally nothing will be done."

"That Hu Xin, who has participated in the provincial examination several times in a row, does the chief examiner in Zhejiang know?"

"In my opinion, this Hu Xin cheating case is organized and premeditated. This group of people committed crimes many times."

"I don't know how many Jinshi are here because of favoritism and fraud!"

"Even, there are protective umbrellas on it, grab them all and destroy them! Kill them all!"

"Old master, you don't need to intervene in this matter."

"Give it to Dongchang, and we will definitely find out the truth."

Indeed, the truth can be found out.

But Wen Chen estimated that there were not many left!
The civil official group is connected by the same year and fellow villagers, gradually forming a party, and then forming a group, which gradually grows.

The emperor wants to break the same-year relationship and break the civil official group from the root.

Let civil officials only become the lackeys of the emperor.

Instead of forming a group and competing with the emperor.

"Your Majesty, the imperial examination is to obtain talents for the country, and you should be cautious." Hu Wei disagreed, absolutely not.

Let Dongchang dig out the roots of Wenchen.

Believe it or not, Dongchang can kill all civil servants in the world!
At that time, civil servants will have nothing to do, so they can only be dogs obediently.

All Yang Shiqi's efforts have been in vain. After a few decades, the civil service will not be able to develop.

Even if the talks with the emperor collapsed, he must save the situation.

"Get talents for the country, hahaha!"

Zhu Qiyu laughed strangely: "It's nothing more than a prisoner of lofty ideals, but the old master is really deceiving himself?"

"I've said it before, the imperial examination is for the country to acquire talents, and it's not about cultivating the world."

"Instead of using the family and country feelings of 'study and excellence, you will be an official', and the temptation of fame and wealth of high-ranking officials to buy the world's literati."

"To be precise, I am taming literati like dogs."

"Be my dog!"

"It is true that when encountering a weak and deceitful monarch, civil servants will form a huge civil official group, riding on the emperor's head to dominate and manipulate the imperial power."

"You guys are familiar with this..."

"So I don't need to elaborate, old master."

That's right.

The imperial examination is nothing more than a prison for those with lofty ideals.

Hu Wei's face turned pale: "Your Majesty can't just learn the art of power and control the ministers with the emperor's mind. At that time, it will only make the ministers renounced and Ming Dynasty will collapse!"

The imperial examination is really tricky.

However, it cannot be said.

Civil officials want face, why should civil officials fight against the imperial power.

It is because the emperor wants to tame civil servants as dogs!
The civil servants don't agree. Who is willing to be the emperor's lackey for more than ten years?

Therefore, the civil servants began to confuse the emperor, let the emperor abandon the government, and then a little bit, stole the imperial power from the emperor, turning the emperor into a puppet.

This kind of struggle, all the time, does not start.

It also never ends.

Emperors and officials are always in opposition.

But the two are also unified. In front of the family, the country and the world, they also have unified interests, and they do not allow third-party forces to overturn the table and overthrow the dynasty.

So contradictory.

"I don't want to desecrate the pure heart of a person with lofty ideals."

"So I asked Dongchang to investigate!"

"Check it out!"

"Find out all those gnats and dogs, and clean them up!"

"I hate those moths!"

"I hope that Daming will become pure, and the people of the world will become pure!"

To put it bluntly, you want everyone in the world to become saints.

That's impossible. The human heart seeks profit, and greed, hatred and ignorance will always linger in the heart, and no one can completely get rid of it. As long as selfishness exists, it will never be dedicated to the public.

"Su Chuo, a famous minister of the Western Wei Dynasty, once said that there is no official in the world who is not corrupt. What is there to be afraid of being corrupt?"

"Those who fear are unfaithful."

"Anyone who is unfaithful must be a dissident. In the name of dismissing corrupt officials and eliminating dissidents, he can sleep at home and win the hearts of the people outside. Why not do it?"

"This one."

"Secondly, if an official is corrupt, the king must know it. Once the king knows it, the official will be fearful, and the more fearful the official, the more loyal he will be. Therefore, abandoning corrupt officials is the art of controlling officials."

Hu Yi borrowed the past to sing about the present.

Tell the emperor, use corrupt officials, kill corrupt officials.

Hu Wei dare not say the latter words.

Because the officials of the Ming Dynasty used cleanliness as the assessment standard, he dared not persuade the emperor not to use clean officials, but only corrupt officials, which would make him the number one courtier in the ages.

"Old Madam Fu knows my heart well."

Zhu Qiyu said quietly: "Teach me the art of controlling officials."

"But I don't like the art of controlling officials. I hope that everyone is a public, and a clean and honest person who is dedicated to the public."

Hu Wei wanted to say the second half of Su Chuo's sentence.

But Shengsheng stopped his mouth.

Does the emperor not understand?Don't want to use power?
No, he is determined to clean up the civil servants.

He wants to completely tame civil servants into dogs.

In fact, even Taizu and Taizong failed to tame civil servants as dogs, and no emperor in the Ming Dynasty did it. On the contrary, Taqing did a good job.

Pfft!
Hu Wei knelt on the ground and said loudly: "The old minister is willing to sacrifice his life to protect His Majesty to give birth to a dragon heir, and the dragon heir will surely inherit the throne!"

This is to use the son's throne in exchange for this purge?
Zhu Qiyu's eyes were dark.

I gave birth to a son, and let him inherit the throne, isn't this a matter of course?

how?

Want to make a deal with you?

How ridiculous.

How sad that even the most basic succession to the throne has to be traded through political means.

It can be seen that behind the civil official group, there is indeed a force that can manipulate the succession of the throne.

Back then when I was pushed to the throne, it was this force that pushed me.

Zhu Qizhen was captured at that time.

There are two candidates to inherit the throne, Xiang Wang Zhu Zhanqian and him Zhu Qiyu.

He always thought that the reason for choosing him was that he was the son of the first emperor. If he succeeded, the Empress Dowager Sun would still be the Empress Dowager of the Central Palace, and the Sun family would not be suppressed by the Zhang family.

And Xunchen supported Emperor Xuanzong, so he naturally supported Zhu Qiyu's ascension to the throne.

At that time, Zhu Qiyu was young, had no feudal clan, and lacked experience in governing the local area, so in the eyes of civil officials, he was easier to control.

It now appears that the real reasons are none of these.

It was the force behind that chose Zhu Qiyu.

"Then this case of cheating in the imperial examination will be over?" Zhu Qiyu was really tempted.

Zhu Jianji's death may not have been planned by Queen Mother Sun alone.

It is also related to the Civil Service Group.

Because civil servants need a well-controlled emperor, not an ambitious emperor.

At that time, Zhu Qiyu had just ascended to the Great Treasure, and he worked hard to rule the country, sweeping away the accumulated disadvantages, and wanted to make some achievements.

After the Yi Chu turmoil, Zhu Jianji died suddenly. Since then, Zhu Qiyu has ignored the government and refused to grasp the imperial power. He is completely a stubborn lord.

So I lived for a few years.

Now that I think about it carefully, the biggest beneficiary of Zhu Jianji's death, besides Zhu Qizhen, is the Civil Service Group.

Moreover, after Zhu Jianji's violent death, nothing happened.

The original owner never checked.

How suspicious.

It explained that the courtiers did not allow the emperor to investigate, so the emperor could not investigate and could only be treated as a normal death. Then, in the remaining few years, he was giving birth to a son, but he couldn't ask for it for a long time.

In the end, in the solitude, he was robbed of the door and won.

All of this is due to the power behind them, who just want to change the emperor to prove their existence.

"Your Majesty, please hand it over to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Supervision Department will investigate it!"

That is to say, let the civil servants check themselves.

Might as well not check.

Hu Wei didn't pretend anymore: "The old minister guarantees that your majesty's parents and children will inherit the throne, and your majesty will enjoy the incense of the Taimiao forever!"

That is to say, Zhu Qiyu's memorial tablet will not be kicked out from the Taimiao.

Zhu Qiyu wanted to kill him!

Kill all civil servants!
This also just shows that Hu Wei has something to do with this force, and even has a deep bond with him, and maybe we can find clues from him.

Suddenly, Zhu Qiyu smiled: "Deal."

"Old minister, thank Your Majesty for your grace!" Hu Min kowtowed respectfully.

The rift that had just been healed was completely torn apart.

It can no longer be blocked.

Hu's thoughts were all in vain.

Just because of the imperial examination fraud case, Hu Wei cursed Bai Gui, why can't even handle this matter well.

But the lid must be closed.

Dongchang must never be allowed to get involved.

If you want to check, you have to check it yourself, and control it within a limited range.

Civil officials can slowly prosper if their roots continue, but once they are cut off, they will no longer be able to form a group.

Sooner or later, civil servants will become the lackeys of the emperor. If they study hard in a cold window, they will become dogs who study hard.

How sad?

People who read sage books should not be ashamed of this way.

"Old Madam Fu, who is the force behind you?" Zhu Qiyu asked suddenly.

Hu Yan, who was about to get up, knelt on the ground with a plop.

Not a word was said.

The silence speaks.

It just shows that there is really a force behind it manipulating the court situation.

It can even manipulate the life and death of the emperor.

Zhu Qiyu slowly squatted down: "The factory guards are all my people. If there is something wrong with me, I will wash the court and kill everyone. Do you hear me?"

It's over, the emperor's paranoia was finally released.

He is going to kill!

"Your Majesty..." Hu Ming wanted to explain.

"I don't want to hear nonsense."

"I'm just telling you, I'm the emperor, I can kill whoever I want!"

Zhu Qiyu stared at him firmly: "Unless I die, but before I die, I can let everyone be buried with me!"

Hu Wei's body trembled, and he raised his eyes cautiously, but saw the emperor's eyes full of murderous intent.

I can't stop it!
From this moment on, the emperor will not trust anyone.

He will kill anytime.

"Go and pass the decree, kill all the people related to Zhang Jin, no need to expand! Just kill them all!" Zhu Qiyu couldn't bear it anymore.

"Send an order to Shu Liang again to find out that Dai Ying and transfer him to the Supervision Department."

"Order the guards to strengthen the patrol in the palace."

Hu Ming heard it, and the emperor began to guard against everyone.

"Old master, go back if you have nothing to do."

Zhu Qiyu's tone was gloomy and cold: "Decree has been sent to the patrolling camp. From now on, all streets in central Beijing will be managed by the patrolling camp."

Hu Yan's expression changed.

The emperor was making a fuss about the street exclusive to civil servants.

Is the patrol battalion responsible for surveillance?

Absolutely not!

Cao Jixiang, the inspector of the patrol camp, is the remnant of the king of Mobei. In order to survive, he tossed the temples in Beijing to the point of death.

More than [-] monks and Taoists in Beijing couldn't sleep after hearing Cao Jixiang's name.

Let such evil stars rule the streets.

What is this for?
After the emperor regained the imperial power, he reused the factory guards, established Tiqi and patrol camps, and now he has built the West Factory.

I couldn't see anything before, because the emperor rarely used it.

Now that the emperor has gone crazy, will he wantonly use fanzi, not only to monitor the world, but also to use fanzi to order the world?
Hu Wei shuddered.

This damned case of cheating in the imperial examination has brought disaster to the civil servants!
Outside Gongyuan.

Shu Liang summoned all the patrol officers.

Let Hu Xin identify them one by one.

Hu Xin said that there is no such Dai Ying.

"Are you kidding me?"

Shu Liang's skinny smile didn't make any sense: "Take him to the imperial prison, taste it, and be honest!"

"you!"

"Stand here, don't move!"

The patrol officer trembled.

They are inspectors drawn from the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Sixth Section (Supervision Division).

However, the censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate have all been sent to the private sector, and now this group of people are all newly recruited from the local area, at most they can be regarded as Dai censors.

"Sinners are telling the truth, there really is no such person!" Hu Xin didn't want to go to prison.

He had also heard of the name of the Imperial Prison, and no one escaped from the Imperial Prison alive.

No, to be precise, it's going in, and it's hard to die.

Hu Xin didn't want to suffer.

Just as Shu Liang was about to speak, a message was sent from the courtyard.

During the examination period, the tribute courtyard was completely closed.

Opening at this time is an act of desperation.

But the gate of the courtyard can't be opened frequently, and Shu Liang can't break the rules, so he uses Ming Di to send messages.

"You stay here and guard, I will go in!"

Shu Liang entered the Gongyuan with a cold face, glanced at the candidates in the examination booth, and then went to the court.

"Factory Master!"

A man sweating profusely said in a low voice: "Something went wrong again. One of the examinees was foaming at the mouth, and it seemed that he was dying."

"That's all?"

Shu Liang frowned: "If you die, you die. Even if you die, you have to wait for three days to open the door. No one is allowed to make exceptions."

"Master, please check the mark, the candidate's candle is missing."

"Ok?"

Shu Liang looked sideways: "The three roots are gone?"

"Yes, three candles are enough for three days."

"It's impossible to burn out so quickly."

"Baoxia saw wax oil in the foam he spit out, and it seems that he swallowed the wax before the accident."

That section describes the process in detail.

Shu Liang's expression changed: "Drag the person over quickly, open your stomach, and check that candle!"

"Sign up and obey!"

Fanzi Dongchang moved swiftly, quickly dragged the man over, disemboweled him directly, and took out a half-melted candle.

Shu Liang endured the stench and looked at it in the sunlight.

"Master, there are words!"

Shu Liang also saw that there were indeed words.

Bai Gui rushed over to inquire, and with him were several deputy examiners, Chen Ji, Hu Ao, and Li Xian.

"Bai Shangshu, look!" Shu Liang held it up for Bai Gui to see.

"Why are there words on it?"

Bai Gui looked back sharply, and asked, "Who issued this candle?"

"It was sent by the vice president." Chen Ji replied.

"Call someone."

Bai Gui looked towards the sun: "I can't make out what the word is."

"It was corroded by stomach water, and no one can see clearly." Shu Liang picked up the remaining pieces of candles, all of which were written on them.

Explain that this is not a random word engraved on it, but fraud.

The vice president is Yang Darong, who was a Jinshi in the second year of Jingtai.

Yang Darong has thick hands and feet, dark skin, and was born as a farmer.

After being admitted to the imperial examination, he stayed in the local area for several years.

Because the Metropolitan Procuratorate was really short of people, he was transferred to the Metropolitan Procuratorate as the censor.

"You sent this candle?" Shu Liang asked him.

After saluting, Yang Darong nodded and admitted: "It's from a humble job."

"Is there any writing on it?" Shu Liang asked.

"No handwriting, not a single one!" Yang Darong said firmly.

"Come and see."

When Shu Liang asked him to read, Yang Darong opened his mouth wide in shock: "How can there be words?"

"I have to ask you, this candle passed through your hand." Shu Liang looked at him coldly.

Pfft!
Yang Darong knelt on the ground: "Gonggong Mingjian, the humble job only distributes candles, and absolutely did not participate in fraud."

"Slow down, what are you shouting?"

Shu Liang was dissatisfied.

I am worried that his loud voice will affect the candidates' answers.

"The humble job knows." Yang Darong asked Bai Gui for help.

Bai Gui also doubted him: "Tell me, whose hands did these candles go through?"

"Master Shangshu, from making to delivering this candle..."

"Just say it's in the Gong Yuan." Bai Gui asked.

Yang Darong thought about it for a while, and then said: "The warehouse manager, the porter, the delivery boy..."

"Besides them, there are only humble jobs."

Yang Darong yelled at the injustice: "But the humble staff absolutely did not participate in the fraud. I don't know who replaced this candle."

Bai Gui looked at Shu Liang.

"It seems to me that I was replaced by you."

Shu Liang raised his eyes: "Go get a candle."

"If the texture of the two candles is the same, it means that they were produced in one batch."

"The examination is to select talents for the country, and it is a major event in the world."

"It's the official residence to make candles."

"As long as you check, you can find out, and even who made this candle is well documented."

Shu Liang said slowly: "Yang Darong, I will give you a chance to confess yourself, and this matter will come to an end."

"If you don't know your face and enter Dongchang Prison, I won't be able to negotiate with you."

"I've been wronged by a lowly position!" Yang Darong complained incessantly.

But Dongchang fanzi came to report: "Mr. Chang, a boy who distributed candles hanged himself."

Shu Liang looked at Yang Darong suddenly: "Are you destroying the evidence?"

"It's really not a lowly job, please learn from me!"

Yang Darong began to cry: "I have met Your Majesty before, and His Majesty appreciates you very much. How could I ruin my future?"

"Although the humble family is poor, I also know the truth that poverty cannot be moved."

"I am more familiar with the laws of the Ming Dynasty, and I know what a crime is to cheat in the imperial examination. How dare a humble official know the law and break the law!"

"I beg the adults to learn from me!"

Yang Darong knocked to the bottom.

Shu Liang looked at Bai Gui.

Bai Gui shook his head, he didn't think Yang Darong did it.

Yang Darong, who was born in a peasant family, was quite favored by the emperor, so there was really no need to ruin his future.

"All the boys handing out candles, gather together."

Shu Liang's eyes flickered: "Go and check all the candles that the boy who hanged himself gave out from his hand."

"I want to see what secrets are hidden in that candle."

Dongchang fanzi started to work.
