Chapter 109 Is this a loss of morality or a distortion of human nature?
Chengtianmen.
"turn right!"
Following Yang Feng's shout, the three hundred goblins turned around in unison.
"Let's go together!"
he shouted.
Three hundred goblins stepped forward.
"The ambassador can train a group of girls so neatly, which is an eye-opener for the general!"
A military general next to him sighed.
This is Li Liang, the commander of the Shence Guard, and he is hereditary. His father Hongwu died in the early years of the war, but his sister is Zhu Yuanzhang's concubine, and she is currently the highest-ranking concubine Li Shu, so she is also considered a royal relative.
He is a relative of the country, although he himself has no talent.
but……
Sensible!
The most important thing for a pro-military commander like this is to be sensible and loyal.
"Just having fun!"
Yang Feng said casually.
"Are you just having fun? Are you having fun so much that the whole Yingtian Mansion is running around?"
Li Liang said with a strange smile.
Yang Feng looked at him unexpectedly...
"Commander Li, don't talk nonsense. His Majesty said they are just children."
He said with the same weird smile.
Then the two looked at each other, and then laughed together.
"Children, yes, yes, just children."
Li Liang said with a smile.
"Commander Li, are you just here to discuss these young children with me?"
Yang Feng said.
This guy is obviously in trouble!
In fact, except for Yang Wen, a few of the military generals who had been in contact with him for a long time, they basically kept their distance from him, mainly because they had nothing to deal with, and because he had a special status, being too close to him would easily make His Majesty the Emperor think wildly.
How he gets along with the emperor is no secret among the rich and powerful. Everyone is sensible. A person who points guns at each other with His Majesty the Emperor should try not to get too close whenever possible. Yang Wenji
The other is another matter. Dai Gui was originally ordered to follow him, and Yang Wen was originally ordered to follow him. Even if he was like Han Sheng, it was actually his duty to hang out with him.
But there is no need for other generals in the capital to actively move closer to him.
The nobles even kept their distance.
For example, Tang He had no contact with him when he was alive.
So much so that he didn't even know that he slept with his daughter.
The same goes for Zhou Dexing’s family…
He was indeed dismissed from office and sequestered a title, but his other sons are still serving as commanders in other places. He is now with his second son in Huguang, who is the commander of a certain guard.
Especially for a sensible person like Li Liang, it would be impossible for him to take the initiative to come forward.
"Ambassador, where are you going next? To Jiangning County to find those craftsmen?"
Li Liang said.
"right!"
"Then you'd better hurry up. When I came here, I met people from the Ministry of Punishment. It was said that I was going to Jiangning County to escort them to the Ministry of Punishment prison. It is said that the Ministry of Punishment had some new evidence. They were not only deceiving the public with their lies, but there was also a person from Yingtian Mansion.
Evidence of belief in the White Lotus Sect was found in the craftsman's home.
This crime is very troublesome."
Li Liang said.
Yang Feng looked at him deeply.
Li Liang looked at him very innocently...
"Children, copycats, let's go to Jiangning County!"
Yang Feng shouted without hesitation.
…
Jiangning County Government.
Under the spotlight, the goblins once again set up their wolf forest. In front of them was a red-robed civil servant, and behind him were the arrested workers, but they were already wearing torture tools. They had not suffered before.
, after all, they were arrested not really because they had any serious crimes, but just to provoke Yang Feng. In fact, after they were arrested in Jiangning County Prison, they were basically ignored, but it is different now.
The shackles are all on.
This is according to the standards of heavy-duty prisoners.
"Ambassador Yang, as an envoy, are you bullying our country by interfering in our country's judicial system?"
The red-robed civil servant angrily criticized Yang Feng.
"Who is this?"
Yang Feng said disdainfully.
"This is Zhang Bing, the right servant of the Ministry of Justice!"
Hongpao shouted.
"Ha, it's really strange. A right-hand minister of the Ministry of Justice went to Jiangning County in person just to escort a few prisoners. How can a minister of the Ming Dynasty be so worthless that he can be used as an archer? Mr. Zhang, you are not very fast at avenging private vengeance.
Slow down!
I have only been in the palace for an hour!
You have already completed the frame-up here and come here to frame them.
What kind of White Lotus Sect is there?
In the glorious and prosperous Ming Dynasty, in the bright and prosperous world, there are no demons from the White Lotus Sect. Are you not bringing a black face to your Majesty the Emperor?"
Yang Feng said.
(Zhu Yuanzhang said, are you mocking me for being a White Lotus cultist?)
"Ambassador, please don't slander anyone. The demonic books of the White Lotus Sect were found in the homes of these criminals. The evidence is conclusive."
Zhang Bing said.
"The White Lotus Sect's demon book, bring it to me and take a look!"
Yang Feng said.
Zhang Bing sneered and looked at the county magistrate next to him. The latter quickly came forward with the so-called demon book. The little goblins were separated from each other. He walked through the wolf bush and handed it to Yang Feng. Yang Feng took it casually and the magistrate
He quickly quit under the threat of several goblins. However, this demon book is not a forgery, because it is not newly made, but a White Lotus Scripture that is obviously old and has been broken. Yang Feng can't hold this thing.
He didn't look inside, but looked at Zhang Bing, held it up in front of him, and then took out his lighter, but Zhang Bing didn't understand what this thing was for.
Yang Feng smiled brightly.
Immediately afterwards, the flame of the lighter burst out, and the scriptures immediately burned...
"Get it back quickly!"
Zhang Bing shouted anxiously.
The government officials hurried forward.
The little goblins shouted in unison, and wolves blocked them one after another. Of course the government officials would not fight for this, and they didn't even fight for their wages? What's more, these little goblins even smashed Yingtian Mansion, and even Yingtian Mansion's colleagues
I have been hurt before, but if I really hurt myself, would anyone still uphold justice?
Just put on a symbolic show, pretending to be moving forward but being blocked and shouting.
But the demon book quickly turned into ashes in Yang Feng's hands...
This thing is almost ruined.
It was probably during the White Lotus Sect's rebellion.
It will take about thirty years. At this time, the life of ordinary paper is not as easy to burn as straw paper. He threw the last bit of it on the ground, watched it burn, and then trampled it with horse hooves.
Zhang Bing looked at him with a gloomy face, and Yang Feng looked at Zhang Shilang.
"Shilang Zhang, His Majesty the Emperor of your country has orally ordered these workers to be taken away by me. If you don't believe me, you can ask your Emperor, but I still have to take them away."
Yang Feng said.
It was as if nothing had happened just now.
"Ambassador, new evidence has been found in these people's homes, proving that they have an affair with the White Lotus Sect. Therefore, it is necessary to report to Your Majesty separately. However, in order to prevent them from escaping, they need to be imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. I cannot comply with your request. I will report this matter.
Your Majesty, these people do not need to worry about the ambassador."
Zhang Bing said.
"What evidence?"
"White Lotus Sect Demon Book!"
"Where is the demon book?"
"Burned by the ambassador!"
"Don't be ridiculous, Mr. Zhang. Did Mr. Yang burn your demon book? Are you elders willing to testify to Mr. Zhang that it was Mr. Yang who burned the book of demons?"
Yang Feng shouted to the people.
The latter quickly slipped away...
So this is just like Concubine Han's public opinion poll, it's just a matter of rhetoric. He asked if anyone was willing to testify for him that he didn't have fever. These people also had to run away quickly.
"Look, they are not willing to testify against you. The public's eyes are sharp. They can't bear to see you framing a good person, and they are not willing to help you frame a good person here. Mr. Zhang, please don't make the same mistake again and again.
, you don’t have any demonic books at all, and of course you won’t give them to me, and I’m even less likely to burn any demonic books. You were exposed in the palace because of His Majesty’s Holy Might, the Emperor of your country, and you were so angry that you became angry.
If I dare to go to your emperor, I have no choice but to vent my anger on these innocent workers.
You are not ashamed either.
A minister, magistrate, or county magistrate would actually make things difficult for several workers.
Is this the sage disciple who has read many poems and books?
It seems that I really have to go to Qufu to find my good brother Yan Shenggong and ask him what his ancestors left behind to teach you so that you can even do this kind of thing.
Is this a loss of morality or a distortion of human nature?"
Yang Feng said exaggeratedly.
I have to say that he never forgets Yan Shenggong!
But he really wanted to push Duke Yan Sheng to launch a campaign to purge Confucian scholars.
The most important thing about tablets is that they cannot speak. Wooden tablets that cannot speak are gods, and those that can speak are monsters. They must be thrown out and burned. If the burning is not enough, the ashes must be crushed and scattered, and then a monk can be hired.
The Taoist practice was suppressed by the Buddha and the Three Qing Dynasties.
If Duke Yan Sheng launched a Confucian-style purge, the only possibility would be that he himself would be attacked by a group of Confucian scholars and condemned to eternal destruction!
Zhang Bing looked deeply at his arrogant and domineering face...
magician!
A complete monster!
The traitor who brings disaster to the country!
A complete sycophant!
At this moment, the famous treacherous officials in Yang Feng's history are looming.
"Your Excellency is so shameless that I have never seen Zhang in my life. If you have the courage, you will rob him. Zhang will not let him go. Zhang personally escorted the prisoner to the Criminal Department as the right minister of the Ministry of Punishment. If you dare to rob, you will be robbing the prisoner. Your Excellency
Using foreign envoys to interfere with the justice of the Ming Dynasty, rob the prisoners of the Ming Dynasty, ignore the laws of the Ming Dynasty, and humiliate the state of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang has no choice but to fight to the death with you."
Zhang Bing said solemnly.
I have to say their design is really good.
It is to put on a posture of safeguarding the Ming Dynasty and fight against rude foreign envoys. No matter how you do it, you are standing on the moral high ground.
Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang should be the one who instigated it from behind...
Of course Li Liang did it on purpose.
Zhu Yuanzhang just wanted him to tell Yang Feng, and then Yang Feng would definitely come over, and he would be paired with a famously tough official who couldn't even be flexible. This situation finally emerged. Zhang Bing was killed by Zhu Di in Peking. He was
He was the chief envoy of Peiping when Zhu Di launched his army. He and Xie Gui were responsible for dealing with Zhu Di.
As a result, he was killed by Zhu Di!
However……
Yang Feng dismounted calmly, and then the goblins moved to the left and right. He walked forward calmly, and walked straight towards the workers under the awed eyes of the government officials.
"Stop him!"
Zhang Bing shouted.
Then the officials looked at each other in confusion.
But no one stopped him.
The legend of Yang Feng is well known in the capital.
Back then, even the Xu family dared to bomb, and they had iron coupons to protect them. They were also good friends with the emperor's grandson, and there was a princess with a rather strange identity beside him. I don't know whether he was his fiancée or his female apprentice. The emperor himself often went to Mount Wutai.
As for Zhang Bing, he is nothing more than a civil servant, and everyone just follows him to do things. To offend or even anger such a person in order to follow him is obviously very irrational.
What if he really throws a grenade?
He had an iron ticket for killing people, so he didn't have to be punished at all. What's more, when he killed a slave of the Xu family and seriously injured Xu Yingxu, the Xu family was helpless and pretended that it had never happened before.
What about killing civilians?
Just watch it carefully, everyone!
The government officials carefully stepped aside in front of Yang Feng, and Yang Feng walked straight to the workers like Hu Luguang in front of the palace...
"Bring it!"
He reached out to the side.
The escorting officer pointed at his waist gingerly.
Yang Feng casually pulled off the key and opened the shackles one by one. These workers were very smart and hurried to the goblins. After Yang Feng released the people, he clapped his hands as if nothing had happened, threw the key to the clerk, and then laughed wildly with the temperament of a villain.
Let's go...
"Ha ha ha ha……"
His laughter echoed in the eerie silence.
Zhang Bing looked at him with a gloomy face and angrily behind him.
Then……
"Emperor Grandson, this is the flaw of the current government service system. You can't expect a group of people who have no income and are just doing errands to do anything to uphold the law. They just finish this period of service and can do anything during this period.
Just make sure you are safe and don't risk your life. This kind of guidance is destined to be this result. But if this system is abolished and changed to a professional and employment system, then they will make this their career and must rely on this
If you can make a living, then you can really do things."
Yang Feng said to the emperor's grandson.
So he was clearly the one robbing prisoners on the street, but now he was the one working hard to test the flaws of the Ming Dynasty's government service system...
Even Zhang Xianzong next to me despises him!
However, Zhu Yuanzhang did not do anything about this matter.
First, he has already said that he will be released.
Second, Zhang Bing found a demon book from the White Lotus Sect.
But the demon book is gone!
Burned by Yang Feng!
But Yang Feng refused to admit that he had a fever!
Are there witnesses?
Then Yang Feng also had witnesses who said he didn’t have any fever at all!
In the end, with His Majesty's conciliation, or intentional protection, the incident of his prisoner robbery was ignored. Yang Jing, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, Zhang Bing, the Minister of Justice, and even the Censors of the Procuratorate, repeatedly complained to Yang Feng.
, but His Majesty the Emperor just couldn’t suppress it and let it go.
However, Zhang Bing was given a reward.
Reward him for the awe-inspiring righteousness he showed when fighting against Yang Feng...
So the emperor watched the show and let Yang Feng arouse the public anger of the ministers. Now the officials with a sense of justice want to give him a stick, and he seems to have started to take the route of being a public enemy of the government and the public. Moreover, Zhang Shilang righteously denounced Yang Feng and safeguarded the Ming Dynasty.
The legend of upholding the laws of the Ming Dynasty also quickly spread among the people after being packaged in layers.
In ancient times, there was a strong command, but now there is Zhang Shilang!
Since ancient times, there has been no lack of iron-clad people!
It is Ambassador Yang’s painstaking efforts that only the emperor’s grandson can understand.
"That's true. It's a big worry for Brother Yang!"
The emperor's grandson said with deep sympathy.
Zhang Xianzong stood aside silently as if his three views were ruined
