Bright Moon Breeze (59) (The Gate of Bright Moon Breeze (59) Imperial Palace...)
Bright Moon and Breeze(59)
At the entrance of the palace, a platform was quickly built.
On the street, the imperial guards were beating gongs and drums, shouting that they wanted to publicly try the court officials at the palace gate.
I have never seen such excitement before! There were so many people rushing onto the street, and within an hour, the entrance to the palace was surrounded by water.
Many people saw that this battle was not right and wanted to run away. Unfortunately, the Jin Yiwei had been trapped in this circle for a long time. If they wanted to leave, there was no way.
Immediately afterwards, twenty-two officials were all pressed on the high platform. They were not tied up, but were escorted up neatly. It was obvious that they were not treated harshly in Zhao Prison.
I thought I was being escorted to the palace. But when I got off the carriage, I was shocked by the battle in front of me.
What is this for?
Even Fang Congzhe was invited up and just stood there.
The two sides hate each other, but Fang Congzhe is extremely scared right now! If he doesn't kill these people, his family will suffer. Anyway, once he closes his eyes, he won't look at you.
It looks like there are almost a lot of people around!
Lin Yutong then went up to the stage. She took Wang Cheng and went directly to the stage.
The ministers on the stage had all seen her, so they naturally knelt down to pay her respects.
She yelled and continued walking towards the center.
There was a big gong hanging in the middle of the stage. She went up and struck the gong, and then shouted with the earthen trumpet in her hand: "Quiet!"
Those nearby became quiet, and there were still people shouting in the distance.
She struck the gong again and shouted: "Quiet!"
It gradually became quiet.
Some of them just buzzed, probably because they were curious about why she was a woman.
The common people don't know who this is, but they must have guessed it from the gestures nearby. Even Mr. Ge knelt down, what could she be?
So, these people first saw the gift, and then passed it on layer by layer, and then they realized that the person standing on the stage was the queen!
"No courtesy!" Lin Yutong shouted with a trumpet, and the crowd slowly stood up. Lin Yutong stood up first. Lin Yutong glanced at Wang Cheng. Wang Cheng was a clumsy person who was called a 'trumpet' by the queen.
Hand the thing over and ask him to say it this way.
Lin Yutong said: "The public trial held today is not afraid of what you say. Just say whatever you have to say, and the person who speaks is not guilty!"
After taking the things, he asked bluntly, "May I ask the queen, the people standing on the stage are all high officials of the imperial court, and as a concubine of the harem, even if you are the master of the harem, you should not be here!"
Lin Yutong waved, "Come up!"
This man actually stood up so that everyone could see him.
Lin Yutong glanced at the other party and said: "...You are right, I shouldn't have appeared here. But I have my own reasons for appearing here! Please tell me, as a queen, I have the responsibility of caring for the world.
.As a queen, you care about whether the people have clothes to wear and whether they have fields to cultivate. Can you exceed the rules?"
"No!" the man said, "but you can ask the Ministry of Household Affairs!"
"Well said! We need to ask the Ministry of Accounts!" Lin Yutong pointed to the group of adults, "I have looked through the account books of the Ministry of Accounts! Then, I got an astonishing number, that is - the world
The official families occupied half of the land in the world! Of the remaining half, another half was occupied by feudal princes and nobles! The emperor removed the feudal princes, divided the land, and encouraged reclamation. But how much of the land was occupied?
The officials of the Ming Dynasty, large and small, add up to less than 100,000 people! One hundred thousand people occupy half of the land in the world! Then I stand here and ask these impassioned adults standing in the court, what are the people of the world?
Where have all the fields gone? Shouldn’t they?”
As soon as these words were shouted, there was a buzzing sound below, which was an extremely unbelievable sound. Yes! Officials, big and small, actually occupied half of the land of the Ming Dynasty.
How terrible!
Lin Yutong asked this candidate: "Do you have any relatives in your family who are officials? What did your ancestors do? What did your parents do? How many acres of land and fields does your family have? Let me know."
He blushed at this move, "All the fields at home were bought!"
"How did you buy it? When did you buy it?" Lin Yutong smiled coldly, "If it weren't for the natural disaster that made it difficult to survive, who would have sold the field? Is your family's field given a reasonable price?"
If the harvest in the field is not good, how can we follow the price of a good year?
That's right! This is how the fields are lost! When it comes time to save lives, two bushels of wheat will be sold out of a field of twelve acres.
Lin Yutong snorted softly, looked down, and pointed at the officials below, "...this gentleman comes from a poor family. When he was admitted to the imperial examination, his mother and wife sold a dowry for him to take the imperial examination and passed the exam. Now, his family's property is
How much? One hundred and twenty-eight hectares of fertile land, five mountains and forests, and the house in his hometown cost 190,000 taels... His elder brother attended a private school for two years and is now a fifth-rank magistrate.
He cheated and was disqualified from taking the exam by the county magistrate at the time. However, the result was that his brother became the county magistrate of his hometown of Lin County. However, the county magistrate who was unwilling to favor personal gains and curry favor with the superior officials was dismissed due to his impeachment.
He has obtained official positions... His nephews are all studying in the Imperial College and are looking for vacancies. Today, the court only knows the official positions occupied by his relatives, but does not know how much property they have!
Yes! This gentleman once helped the victims, and argued hard in the court for a hundred thousand taels of relief money. This gentleman was also praised by the emperor for admonishing the emperor not to drink too much. And because he dealt with it
Two or three tax collectors, and gained a reputation as not afraid of power.
However, when the emperor chooses officials, he chooses real officials who work for the benefit of the people! Rather than those who are deliberately trying to create a reputation, who are gentlemen on the surface but are arrogant behind their backs. Did the emperor handle such officials wrong? "
No! No! No!
He deserves it! He should have been cut to pieces by a thousand cuts!
The crowd was excited, and the shouts became louder and louder than the waves!
Some people who were close to the high platform took off their shoes and threw them at the official's face. "You are still a scholar and you don't understand the truth. The emperor doesn't choose such an official."
He covered his face with his sleeves and went down smoothly.
Lin Yutong picked up the shoes and shouted to the man who threw the shoes: "Brother, come on! It's still cold and my feet feel cold without shoes."
As soon as the man picked him up, he was called "big brother" by the queen, and he stuttered and couldn't say a word.
Someone on the side asked: "I'm so disrespectful, I didn't know it was my uncle."
"No! No! We don't know the queen."
Lin Yutong knocked the gong again to calm down. Then he looked at the examiners and said, "I have said that the speaker is not guilty! It will not hinder the imperial examination. If you have any questions, just ask."
Immediately afterwards, another person came up. This person should be in his thirties and was very calm. After seeing the ceremony, he asked again, "Empress, may I ask if this is a targeted crime of clique? The imperial court has authorized it."
Donglin Party, other parties will be squeezed out."
"Cliques are guilty?" Lin Yutong smiled, "Most of these actions are related to factions. The court doesn't care where you were educated. But as an official of the court, the first thing you have to do is abide by the law. The law,
It's the bottom line. If you cross the bottom line, what kind of official position do you have? Yes! They all have crony backgrounds, but are all cronies guilty? Xiong Tingbi is a member of the Chu party, is he guilty? The emperor tried to protect him as a manager.
In Liaodong, who moved his position? You ask, is it because the Donglin Party was activated and other parties were squeezed out? This is unreasonable! Anyone who pays attention to the trends of the imperial court knows that the imperial court transferred the governor Wang Huazhen back to the capital! Use your division,
Wang Huazhen was from the Donglin Party, while Xiong Tingbi was from the Chu Party. The imperial court transferred Wang Huazhen away and tried to keep Xiong Tingbi. Why? Because Xiong Tingbi was suitable. For the Liaodong war, everything was arranged to cooperate with Xiong Tingbi. In your eyes, this is exclusion.
Who?
The emperor has long said that there are no political parties in the court! There is only a group of people who can do things! The emperor said that no matter what his background is, once he is in charge of the court, he should do things in a down-to-earth manner. These words are still in his ears, but up and down, especially the party.
The emperor once said that although the sage said that gentlemen are in groups but not party members, if they can benefit the people, take the interests of the people as their own interests, and work conscientiously, then even if they have to form parties, he will tolerate it. These words are for Mr. Ye Ge! Now!
, I can relay it to everyone, and then spread it to the world. The emperor hopes that the court will have more officials who have the world in mind and benefit the world. Instead of seeking family interests, seeking local interests, narrow-minded people, and seeking fame and reputation!"
Good! Good! Good!
The cheers, applause, and cheers below could be heard clearly in the palace.
Lin Yutong looked at the examiners below, "You block the palace gate. The royal family will not ask for guilt, and the court will not ask for guilt. You will still take the imperial examination, and you must be treated equally. The court is a place where you are allowed to speak. As long as you think you are justified, then say it! Today,
I am standing here, and the adults behind me are also standing here. Some of you may be the nephews or students of these adults. It doesn’t matter. You can speak for whomever you want, just come. The emperor said that the court
If there is only one voice left here, it will be a bad thing! The emperor also said that the most important thing for a monarch and his ministers is to have a heart-to-heart relationship! If these adults are willing to have a heart-to-heart relationship with the emperor, and tell the truth about all the things they have done over the years, they will
If the property that was embezzled should be returned and the gold and silver that was bribed should be returned, then there is still a chance! Everyone makes mistakes! If you make a mistake, keep it under review and remedy the mistake. It may not be too late. However, they deceive the emperor and the people.
Can this sin of deceiving Heaven be forgiven?"
Can't! Can't! Can't!
Lin Yutong looked at Fang Congzhe, "Mr. Fang Ge is willing to have a heart-to-heart relationship with the emperor, so Mr. Fang Ge, the emperor has arrangements. Mr. Fang Ge went to the Hanlin Academy to study books, what kind of books should he study? To compile the history books of this dynasty! Powerful ministers, loyal ministers, and treacherous ministers all should
Practice it and let everyone in the world see it. It will be passed down to hundreds of generations in the future. Let future generations take a good look at what kind of officials our Ming Dynasty has produced. Then, if you have a scholar in your family, you must not forget who they are.
Let’s learn, who shouldn’t learn?”
The sound of cheers and shouts of long live on the stage filled my ears.
The people standing on it did not dare to look up, and most of them covered their faces with their sleeves for fear of being seen.
Fang Congzhe was confused. He felt that his sin was so deep. Otherwise, why would he be assigned such a job that would be hated for ten thousand years? On the turret of the palace, the fourth master and many ministers were standing there.
From above, they could see more clearly and hear clearly. At this moment, the ministers knelt down behind the Fourth Master, not daring to breathe.
If you really want to start with family property, 80% of the time you won’t be that innocent.
The corner of Fourth Master's lips turned up, "These adults, reasonable income should be left to others, and the ancestral property should not be moved! However, the unreasonable part still has to be taken out." As he said that, he looked at the kneeling people.
Adults, "I've said it before, I'm not afraid of getting a lot of notoriety. I don't know if you are afraid of it or not. However, I still hope that you can have a heart-to-heart relationship with me!"
The meaning of heart-to-heart communication is commonly known as: taking the initiative to explain problems!
