Chapter 264 The ultimate goal of Zhu Han and Zhu Yuanzhang
Latest website:
But Huang Jiuyan didn't seem to notice it at all, and was still very excited.
"Hou Fang, the superintendent of schools in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, established literary affairs in Zhejiang and urged scholars to learn the ways of saints!"
"Zhang Hong, the prefect of Hangzhou, took charge of Hangzhou in the Yuan Dynasty. At that time, the scholars, officials and gentry all called him Neng!"
"Liu Fulin, the chief envoy of Zhejiang Province, has worked hard in his appointment and promoted talents. After five years in office, he has paid taxes to the court every year without any shortage!"
Huang Jiuyan's voice became louder and louder as he spoke: "These three people are actually capable officials. Even if they occasionally complain, they are still concerned about the country and the people!"
"Besides..."
At this point, Huang Jiuyan changed the topic and suddenly pointed the finger at Zhu Han.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Besides, the former Hou Fang's memorial was really sincere, and today's imperial examination has gone down a wrong path!"
"If you don't examine the three cardinal principles and the five constant principles, don't ask about loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, but only examine some weird tricks and crooked ways, today's new Confucianism is actually pseudo-study, and it abandons the true knowledge of saints like a piece of grass... Your Highness, the King of England, would you rather be free from shame?"
Zhu Han smiled coldly: "Where does my shame come from?"
This question made Huang Jiuyan jump to his feet and shout filial piety: "His Royal Highness! The reform of the imperial examination system is because you are constantly bewitching the emperor!"
"Jinyiwei, such insidious and violent personal guards, was formed by His Majesty the King of England. The King of England must have secretly instigated the Jinyiwei to frame three people from Zhejiang Hou Fang this time!"
After Huang Jiuyan finished speaking, he knelt on the ground and cried towards Zhu Yuanzhang's throne: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty, there is a traitor in the government, so the country is uneasy!"
"I ask your majesty to temporarily put aside the thoughts of flesh and blood relatives, put all the people of the world first, deprive the king of England of his title, and pay the three divisions to punish him!"
Huang Jiuyan's sad and angry voice echoed in the hall.
Li Shanchang and others were stunned with fear. Is this Huang Jiuyan crazy?
Who doesn’t know how much His Majesty favors the King of England? This is what Huang Jiuyan can say?
Thinking of this, Li Shanchang quietly raised his head and glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang's expression. His heart suddenly beat wildly and he quickly lowered his head.
The killing intent in brother Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes has almost solidified!
But the same words, in the ears of those ministers who were more or less related to Hou Fang, undoubtedly gave them a lot of courage, or in other words, gave them the last life-saving straw for their comeback!
I saw these people, although they were kneeling on the ground one by one, they all cried out for the injustice of the three people.
"Yes, Your Majesty clearly knows that Hou Fang and the other three are innocent!"
"Your Majesty, I have also joined the British King, Mao Xiang. These two people are controlling the government, blocking the audience, and falsely accusing the Minister of Humiliation. Your Majesty must keep an eye on them!"
"The reform of the imperial examination system is actually the root of the country's troubles. Your Majesty, it's not too late to rein in the situation!"
Mao Xiang looked at the scene in front of him and his whole body started to tremble.
Inverted!
Totally the opposite!
Mao Xiang always regarded himself as the emperor's most loyal dog. He would show no mercy to anyone who rebelled against his ministers and traitors, whether they were relatives of the emperor or high-ranking officials.
But today, with the restless scene of civil servants in the court, he was a little at a loss.
At this moment, a sharp and almost broken voice sounded: "Hou Fang, Zhang Hong, and Liu Fulin allowed their relatives to bully men and women, preyed on the common people, ignored the laws of the country, and even gathered scholars to fight against the imperial court.
Your disobedience is clearly revealed!"
"I request that the three people and nine clans be executed and their members be exterminated!"
Zhu Han, who had been watching the excitement for a long time, was stunned, who is this, so cruel?
Looking for reputation, it turned out to be Liu Bowen.
Zhu Han only found it very interesting. This good gentleman who usually pretended to be deaf and mute and didn't want to offend anyone actually exploded as soon as he made a move...
Well, it saves me a lot of trouble.
After Liu Bowen shouted these words, he was covered in cold sweat and almost collapsed.
Liu Bowen had already noticed that today Emperor Zhu and His Highness the King of England were fishing together!
He, Li Shanchang, and Song Lian were originally the representatives of the scholars in eastern Zhejiang at the court. If they didn't speak out to express their attitude, they would probably be on the chopping block of those two gentlemen!
To talk about this attitude, it is natural that Li Shanchang, the leader of scholars in eastern Zhejiang, should express it. Liu Bowen really does not want to be the first person, but he must not do it properly.
Li Shanchang has a fatal weakness. The more critical the moment, the more hesitant he becomes. The same is true today. By the time he makes up his mind, he and others will probably be in prison.
Not to mention Song Lian, he was the best in the world in terms of knowledge, but he would probably have a hard time understanding these matters in the court and officialdom in his lifetime.
Therefore, Liu Bowen had to take risks.
At this moment, Li Shanchang and Song Lian looked at Liu Bowen in shock...
They had no problem with "killing three people and nine clans", but "killing their party members" made Li Shanchang and Song Lian tremble with fear. Who are these three people's party members?
Doesn’t that just depend on His Majesty the Emperor’s mood?
This is obviously going to set off a big hell!
But soon, Li Shanchang reacted and hurriedly shouted: "I second the proposal!"
At this time, they have no choice at all!
Liu Bowen secretly kicked Song Lian, and Song Lian also recovered: "I also agree!"
quiet!
Deathly silence!
"Destroy his party members" was like a curse, echoing in the ears of all the officials who interceded for Hou Fang and the others.
These old bureaucrats understand very well what these words mean!
They swallowed their saliva in unison and seemed to suddenly wake up. Are they and others getting too big?
Huang Jiuyan is also a spirited person.
Although he is arrogant, he also knows what can and cannot be said.
At this moment, he was frightened and frightened. He pointed at Liu Bowen and was about to curse: "Liu Ji, you are talking nonsense..."
"Your Majesty, I am impeaching Hou Fang, the governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Zhang Hong, the prefect of Hangzhou, Liu Fulin, the chief envoy of Zhejiang, and Huang Jiuyan, the governor of Zuo, for colluding internally and externally, forming cliques and treason, and conspiring to do illegal things. There are ten major crimes in total. Your Majesty, please investigate carefully!"
Before Huang Jiuyan could finish his words, he was interrupted by an indifferent voice. But the content of these words really made Huang Jiuyan's hair stand on end!
He tremblingly raised his head and looked at the person who spoke. Who could he be if he wasn't King Zhu Han of England?
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting high on the throne, had a smile on his lips. Okay, Qiwu is about to close the net.
"Oh? The ten most sinful crimes? Haha, we all appreciate this wonderful article, why don't you tell me and listen to it!"
After Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial edict, Zhu Han immediately took out the memorial that had been prepared from his sleeve pocket, unfolded it, and played loudly:
"Husband, Hou Fang, the governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, Zhang Hong, the prefect of Hangzhou, Liu Fulin, the chief envoy of Zhejiang, and Huang Jiuyan, the Zuo Tongzheng, are domineering and tyrannical. Outsiders have caused harm to the place. The people in the fish and meat village have suffered terribly..."
"The people inside are the remnants of the former Yuan Dynasty who are proud of themselves and move forward with their hearts, slandering the founder of the country and obstructing the New Deal. Their intentions are as sinister as those in the valley... I have drawn up ten of his crimes here to serve as a lesson to the world..."
"First, colluding with the scholars of the previous dynasty to criticize the court..."
"Second, there are sorcerers and demons who are looking for evil, and they falsely claim that the tombs of their ancestors have dragon energy..."
"Third, if you bring wealth back home, the moon will never be empty..."
"..."
"Tenth, you cannot cooperate with the emperor in governing politics, which will increase the monarch's worries!"
Zhu Han's words are clear and logical, and the evidence listed later is also detailed to a certain place, someone, and the timing!
Huang Jiuyan turned pale and trembled all over. Almost none of these ten charges were made out of nothing.
What he was afraid of was that he did many things very secretly, and even only he knew why the King of England seemed to be present in person and understood so clearly.
Huang Jiuyan was still panicking at the stall, but Zhu Han had already finished reading.
But he added: "Early this morning, before going to court, I received a secret report that Hou Fang, Zhang Hong, and Liu Fulin have already established Dongshan College..."
"If you want to use Dongshan College as a foundation to attract talents from the southeast, select the best and help them become officials, and disrupt our country, the Ming Dynasty, you are so evil in your heart that people and gods are extremely angry!"
"These people are deeply indebted to the Emperor. If they are not killed, the people will not be angry. If they are not killed, it will not shock Xiaoxiao. I ask your Majesty to give you a clear warning!"
It’s over!
This is the common sentiment in the hearts of Liu Bowen, Li Shanchang and Song Lian.
This incident at Dongshan College has completely put Huang Jiuyan and Hou Fang in danger!
Thinking of this, Li Shanchang and Song Lian were extremely grateful to Liu Bowen. Fortunately, this man reacted quickly, otherwise they would have been punished today!
Zhu Yuanzhang's face looked even more ugly now!
He only found out about the affairs of Dongshan College after hearing what Zhu Han said. This is completely different from that of local scholars from Yinjie!
Deserve to kill!
Damn it!
"My minister Zhu Sheng asked the clan to punish the marquis Fang and his party members!"
"Chen Tanghe, please strictly investigate Huang Jiuyan and other traitors!"
Before Zhu Yuanzhang could say anything, Lan Yu, Tang He and other generals who were watching the excitement stood up one after another and beat up the drowned dog!"
These generals may not be smart when talking, but that doesn't mean they have no brains.
They also saw that His Majesty the Emperor and His Royal Highness the King were working together to set a trap for people!
It doesn't matter what these two people do, as long as they support their trusted generals, that's it.
Furthermore, let's see what charges His Royal Highness has given to Huang Jiuyan and those old boys. This is obviously to find an excuse to throw a bunch of unsavory guys into prison.
At this stall, regardless of whether they have a quarrelsome relationship with me, it is always right to make our position clear as soon as possible.
Furthermore, since His Majesty the Emperor founded the country, these rotten literati who only know how to eat, drink and have fun have begun to dream of taking power again...
If you are in power, you should be in power. The key is that these rotten literati actually look down on the fighting men like themselves, and even want to imitate the weak Song Dynasty and suppress the generals and nobles. This is unbearable!
This is a rare opportunity to give them a bloodletting.
So look, a strange scene happened above the court.
Four civil servants were accused of crimes, but a group of military generals impeached them. On the contrary, most of the civil servants remained silent.
For a while, the court hall was noisy and noisy, like a big vegetable market.
boom!
Zhu Yuanzhang slapped the royal eucalyptus violently, and the hall fell silent instantly.
Then, Zhu Yuanzhang's cold voice began to pronounce the verdict.
"The four thieves, Hou Fang, Zhang Hong, Liu Fulin, and Huang Jiuyan, are deeply indebted to me, formed a clique for selfish purposes, and have evil intentions. Their crimes are unpardonable!"
"Here, these four thieves were dismissed from office, their property was confiscated, they were punished as treason, and the nine clans were executed!"
boom!
Huang Jiuyan felt like a thunderbolt from the blue, and there was a pounding on his crotch. He was so scared that he peed, and then he collapsed to the ground. Several guards in Jinyi came forward and tried to drag Huang Jiuyan down. Only then did he react.
He cried and yelled: "No! Your Majesty, you can't do this. If you treat me like this, you will chill the hearts of the scholars in the world. After all, the world must be governed by scholars!"
Several imperial guards allowed him to cry and yell, but kept dragging him out of the palace.
As Huang Jiuyan's voice faded away, Zhu Yuanzhang said sarcastically: "If all the scholars in the world have this kind of virtue, I'm afraid that even the Ming Dynasty's court will not be able to tolerate them!"
Zhu Han coughed slightly: "Your Majesty, how should we deal with the party members related to these four people in the court and local areas?"
Zhu Yuanzhang opened his mouth and said: "With these four thieves, we will kill the nine tribes!"
As soon as these words came out, the generals always shuddered.
Li Shanchang, Liu Bowen and the others were swallowing their saliva crazily. According to this killing method, the Ming Dynasty's court would be empty!
Moreover, if this happens, will anyone dare to be an official in the Ming Dynasty in the future?
As for the officials who had followed Huang Jiuyan to plead for Hou Fang and the others, they were so frightened that they cried and kowtowed and begged for mercy.
It was simply a cry of sadness.
Li Shanchang wanted to speak up, but how could he dare at this stall?
In desperation, he could only wink at Zhu Han. The British king knew the general situation, and he was the only one who dared to speak at this moment.
It happened that at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang also glanced at Zhu Han.
Zhu Han suddenly understood. He coughed lightly and went out to report: "Your Majesty, although Huang Jiuyan and his followers should be killed, your Majesty is a human being. If they are all killed, I am afraid that it will hinder your majesty's wisdom..."
"For the sake of a bunch of criminals, I have tarnished the name of His Majesty as the Qianqiu Saint King. I personally think that Your Majesty is not worthy!"
Zhu Yuanzhang pretended to be displeased: "Is it so easy for these bastards?"
Zhu Han quickly said: "Domestic dogs and thin cows still have their uses, how about humans?"
"Don't these prisoners keep saying that they want to uphold and promote the way of saints? Then we might as well send them to Yinzhou overseas to see if they can educate the local Yin Shang survivors!"
The two brothers, Zhu Han and Zhu Yuanzhang, sang together and finally revealed their ultimate goal...
Yinzhou is a wild enclave overseas, full of uncivilized barbarians.
All the civil and military ministers of the dynasty had seen these savages before. They had black and thin bodies, bird feathers on their heads, and no clothes on their bodies. They were simply savages who drank blood from their hair!
Being sent to a place like this would be even worse than Su Wu who was shepherding sheep in the Huns back then!
But even in such a place where no one goes, the civil servants above the main hall who had been crying and wailing just now were filled with ecstasy.
As long as it can save the lives of the whole family, there is nothing to be picky about now.
Of course they are willing to go to Yinzhou overseas, but whether this "beautiful job" can fall on them depends on whether Emperor Zhu is sure.
Thinking of this, this group of people all looked at Zhu Yuanzhang eagerly.
Zhu Yuanzhang felt so happy when he looked at the old civil servants, who were all arrogant and always secretly poking at him, now being cautious in order to be sent to the wilderness.
