It was originally a quiet morning, but in front of the Meridian Gate of Forbidden City was full of restlessness.

Hu Guan plucked one by one among the kneeling officials, and those who could be called up did not care whether they were willing or not, and they just stood up. Of course, this kind of reluctance may not be just reluctance.

"Mr. Prince Consort, we are kneeling and waiting for the emperor to summon him. Can't you wait for a moment?"

"Mr. Prince Concubine, we are ministers of the Ming Dynasty, not your retainer, so why are we calling around!"

Many people who were not caught by Hu Guan asked loudly.

If you think about it, is this a question?

Perhaps, but it is not guaranteed that a few of these questioning people are using this method to attract Hu Guan's attention.

Sure enough, this method worked.

The prince-in-law Hu Guan shouted, "You still have any reason? I ran to the three yamen just now, all of which were empty! The fifth master has lost such a big deal, don't he need manpower? Isn't it your duty?"

As he said that, he sneered, "I can wait, can the fifth master wait?"

"Hey, speak well!" Li Jinglong smiled and smoothed out the situation, shouting to everyone, "What the prince is saying is that the matter of the fifth master is important. It is not a solution to find it one by one. Who should take care of these matters and stand up? Hurry up and don't delay your efforts!"

As he said that, he turned his head to Hu Guan and said, "Do you have to go to Fengyang?"

"Look at me!" Hu Guan slapped his forehead, "I want to escort the fifth master's coffin back to Kaifeng! Alas, is there anyone from Taichang Temple?"

Suddenly, he was very conscious and immediately thought of other things.

"Mr. Concubine, I am here!" In the hospital room, two old ministers whose faces were blue in their cold faces came out tremblingly.

"I am old but I am not dead!" Li Jinglong laughed in his heart when he saw this, "Everyone is not stupid. He knows that it will not be better to end up kneeling down. He also has learned about the awesomeness of Master Long. What else is more cost-effective than traveling far away? He can avoid Master Long's anger and watch the storm in the capital in a cold eyes. He is so fucking good-looking!"

Huh, the officials who were originally kneeling stood up in large areas, and a corner of the crowd in front of the Meridian Gate was hollowed out.

This caught the kneeling officials off guard and the crowd began to stir.

Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves came again.

Everyone looked around and the prince-in-law Mei Yin jumped off the horse with a whip, and cursed with his eyebrows and eyes, "Where are the people in Taipu Temple? Where are they? There have been heavy snow these days and there are so many days when the horse farms in the suburbs of Beijing are not needed?"

He cursed, walked between the officials kneeling and continued to shout loudly, "It's time for the New Year to be over. The emperor wants to sacrifice to heaven, ancestors and filial piety. You don't care. Let the emperor keep his legs on then?"

"Can you do it? I will tell the emperor to change people. Is there any other lack of officials in the Ming Dynasty?"

If Mei Yin dared to speak like this in the past, the civil servants would not have said anything but his ancestors would be considered a pout. But today, few of these civil servants dared to refute it.

The official who should be in charge of the responsibilities stood up with a sigh of relief and left with no help.

"Oh!"

Li Jinglong walked to a secluded place and said to He Guangyi, who was watching the fun, "Look, when the steps come, he will go down quickly, for fear that it will be too late!"

He Guangyi snorted coldly, "What do you think they are trying to do? They knelt all night and had a fuss all night, and then they will be broken up?"

"What else?" Li Jinglong smiled and said, "You are not a civil servant, you don't understand their thoughts. Do you understand when you change your mind when you see the wind?" He said, sighing, "They know that they can't kneel down and cannot let Master Long surrender, but this is the attitude they must show, and it is also to let Master Long see their hearts."

"In fact, no matter whether Long Live or not, their purpose has been achieved. Look, wait until tomorrow... at most, the day after tomorrow, the comments against the new policy must be like snowflakes! According to the classics and long discussions, that is their backup!"

"They make a fuss first, and then make a fuss in the place, that's a big fuss..."

He Guangyi heard this and didn't say anything for a long time. "I don't understand!" As he said that, he turned around and left, "I've arrested someone!"

"Hey!" Li Jinglong shouted to his back, "Don't do it, talk to others!"

~~

At this moment, another group of people came outside the Meridian Gate.

It was Xie Jin and a group of people who were still kneeling, shouting to the officials who were still kneeling, "Everyone, Yingtian Times has been suspended for two days, and the streets and alleys are scolding us for not doing serious business!"

"There are also the compilation of ancient and modern books and history of Yuan Dynasty, you just left it?"

Among the kneeling officials, someone stood up again.

Immediately afterwards, the Duke of Wei State Xu Huizu rushed over in a daze.

He shouted to the officials in a rare manner, "Where are the people from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Works? The New Year is coming soon. You will not get the control and reward accounting of the border troops? You can eat the materials that should be allocated?"

"The soldiers are counting on these things for the New Year all year round! You kneel here and the soldiers are hungry! If you kneel for a day, the soldiers will have to wait ten days!"

"Do you still want the morale of the army? If those young men are closed, they will cause trouble and mutiny because they are late. Who will take this responsibility? Hurry up and go and do it, do it now. If you don't go, I will let the people from the Governor's Office of the Five Army intervene directly!"

With a rush, more than twenty officials stood up, turned around and left.

Other things can be delayed, but this thing cannot be delayed. It is not that the soldiers’ rewards cannot be delayed, but that they are in power. Now, after finally taking these accounting and auditing rights and allocating materials from the Five Army Governor's Office and letting them take them back, everyone will become short-term pens, Mr. Calculating the Account?

"Haha!" Li Jinglong stood in the corner and sneered.

The next second, he suddenly realized something.

"Is there anyone in the Ministry of Rites? Where are the people from the Lifan Court? Originally from the Honglu Temple and the people from the Shangbao Temple?" Li Jinglong said loudly with a frightened face, "The Burmese King is about to enter Beijing, will the etiquette be formulated? Then let the foreign vassals underestimate my Great Ming Dynasty, and you are sinners for the eternal period!"

"Civilian Censorate, Ministry of Justice... Dali Temple..." Bao Zhao also appeared outside the Meridian Gate, "It's the end of the year, will the accumulated cases in various places be tried? Will the list of executioners reported by various prefectures be checked?"

In this way, hundreds of officials kneeling dispersed in the midst of noisy and chaos.

In front of Noda's Meridian Gate, only some tribute men from the Imperial College, and young and stubborn officials were kneeling.

But the momentum is no longer as good as before.

In his cloak, Bakuzhao walked to the young men whose lips were frozen and whose eyebrows were covered in frost, and frowned and asked, "Which one of you from the yamen?"

A young scholar bowed, "My lord, I am a tribute scholar from the Imperial College, and a native of Pingyang, Zhejiang..."

Gongshi is a juren who is recommended by the local government to conduct further studies in the Imperial College, preparing to participate in the spring examination, and even the palace examination in the future.

Although he is also a Juren, he is definitely higher and more precious than ordinary Juren.

"Little tribute, are you messing around with others?" Bao Zhao said angrily.

"A young man is a tribute scholar and an official, and scholars care about the world and the people..."

"When you wear the second-rank official uniform of this official, what's going on for the sake of the people of the world!" Bao Zhao scolded, "The spring exam is coming soon. If you don't study hard and make trouble with others, it is obvious that you don't have the priority. If you listen to others' words, you are obviously not brain-breaking!"

Bao Zhao became more and more angry as he spoke, and then said loudly, "It would be fine if he didn't have a brain, but he thought he was so smart. He was just a scholar who kept talking. A tribute like you was reading a book in the belly of a dog! Even if you have talent, you are not virtuous. Even if you win the exam, you will not be a good official in the future!"

"Why can you insult me?" In an instant, the scholars were angry.

"Ah ha!" Bao Zhao smiled, "Okay, I can't control you, I'll find someone who can control you!" As he said that, he shouted to the distance, "Bachelor Jie, Bachelor Jie?"

Xie Jin stepped into the palace gate halfway, and turned around after hearing the sound, "What's the matter?"
Chapter completed!
