Wang Chengen didn't want to see this happen the last thing, but it happened anyway. He didn't know what other methods the emperor had to convince these civil servants.
With this thought in his mind, when he looked at Emperor Chongzhen, he was suddenly stunned, because he saw a trace of imperceptible pride suddenly flash across the emperor's face!
???
Suddenly, a series of questions flashed through Wang Chengen's mind: Huh? What other tricks does Long Live Lord have to reverse this situation?
At this moment, suddenly, Emperor Chongzhen slapped the imperial case and made a "snap" sound.
Basically, Emperor Chongzhen had never acted like this in a major court meeting. It was obvious that he was angry.
When Long Yan was furious, this effect was even better than the sound of the quiet whip. There was suddenly silence in the Jinluan Palace.
Including the officials standing very far back, as well as the generals watching the show, they all immediately looked at their noses and their noses.
Emperor Chongzhen was seen scanning the group of officials below, staring at them with eyes as bright as lightning.
He Fengsheng and others naturally understood that this was a battle of momentum. If they backed down, there would be no room for change.
No, He Fengsheng immediately bowed his head and said: "It's not that I want to argue with Your Majesty, but it's because Your Majesty has the intention of tainting His Majesty after treating the saints like this. Please think twice!"
After saying this, he knelt down and paid homage.
"Your Majesty, please think twice!" When other civil servants saw this, they came out one after another, knelt down and paid homage.
It seems that if the emperor does not agree, they will not get up.
In the Jinluan Hall, the only people left standing were military generals, eunuchs and palace maids. All civil servants, regardless of their political views, were kneeling there.
Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but sneer when he saw it.
These civil servants will always say what they mean. They say they are doing it for their own good, but in fact, they are not thinking about their reputation!
With this in mind, Emperor Chongzhen stared at them, and after looking at the necks of most of the civil servants, he said coldly: "It is not my intention to deal with the Kong family in this way, but it is done according to the decree!"
According to his original intention, there was so much verbosity that he would directly kill the nine tribes. The virtues of the Qufu Kong family are not worthy of living in the world!
When He Fengsheng heard what he said, he immediately looked up at him in surprise: It was not the emperor's own intention, but he was following the order?
What does this mean?
In this world, the emperor is the most powerful. How can the emperor follow the decree?
The other civil servants were also surprised. They all subconsciously looked up at Emperor Chongzhen with confusion on their faces.
Chief Assistant He Fengsheng knelt at the front and asked the question on behalf of the civil servants: "I wonder what your Majesty means by this?"
After a pause, he then said: "Who else can make Your Majesty obey your orders?"
Emperor Chongzhen looked at them and said almost word for word: "Open the heavens and carry out the Dao, Zhaoji, and establish the great sage, the most divine, the benevolent, the righteous, the martial, the virtuous, the successful and the high emperor! Tell me, do I want to obey the decree?"
"..." As soon as he said these words, everyone was stunned.
The great sage, the most divine, the benevolent, the righteous, the martial, the virtuous, the successful and the high emperor. To put it simply, he is the Taizu Emperor!
In fact, according to long-standing rumors and Shi Chui, when Emperor Chongzhen said that he would also obey the order, He Fengsheng and others had already guessed that it was not Emperor Taizu!
However, this is just a thought. If such a thing really happens, it would be really strange if they are not surprised!
At this time, when Emperor Chongzhen said this, it was impossible for He Fengsheng and others to just bow down to him!
If this really happens, no matter what Emperor Chongzhen does in the future, he will always say that this is what Emperor Taizu meant. What should we do?
If you don't see something like this with your own eyes, no one would believe it!
Even though there have been so many rumors before, it is certain that Emperor Taizu really seems to have had a spiritual manifestation, but they must see it with their own eyes before they will be convinced!
However, Emperor Taizu had never appeared in front of them. If Emperor Chongzhen was asked to allow Emperor Taizu to appear, this request seemed impossible!
However, it just doesn’t make sense if it’s settled like this!
Another point is, even if it is the will of Emperor Taizu, but this is a sage, is it inappropriate to do this?
In short, after Emperor Chongzhen said this, although everyone in the Jinluan Palace was shocked, he still could not convince them.
Emperor Chongzhen seemed to know what they were thinking, and then said to them: "This result is also what Kong Sheng meant, and I just made the decision!"
They had just recovered from the shock before, but suddenly, like a thunderbolt from the blue, it suddenly hit their foreheads, shocking them and they were stunned again!
If Emperor Taizu appeared, they already had a certain ability to accept it because of all the rumors and speculations in the past. However, when Kong Sheng also appeared, it exceeded any of their expectations.
If it were said before by Emperor Chongzhen, they would have been doubtful about it. But when he said this next sentence, they immediately stopped believing it!
Editor, this must have been compiled by the emperor!
One spiritual manifestation was not enough, but another one was said to appear!
Now that the love life is so big, all the gods and monsters really come out?
How do they feel?
Just like in Westward Journey, the second-in-command Zhu Bajie felt astonished as he watched the moonlight treasure box flashing and flashing, and shouted "Come and see the gods!"
There was only one person in the Jinluan Palace, and he was not so shocked.
This person is Wang Chengen.
Because Emperor Chongzhen had always told him that he had a trump card and was not afraid of the troubles of these civil servants, so when he said this, Wang Chengen immediately understood.
Using Emperor Taizu to suppress these civil servants is indeed a method! As far as the Ming Dynasty is concerned, who has more prestige than Emperor Taizu who founded the Ming Dynasty?
As for Wang Chengen, he believed more than anyone else that Emperor Taizu would indeed appear. At least he had seen the treasure in the sachet on Emperor Chongzhen's chest many times.
However, as he watched with cold eyes, he found that these civil servants did not seem to particularly agree.
Especially after Emperor Chongzhen mentioned Confucius, many people had expressions of disbelief on their faces.
As a result, Wang Chengen became anxious.
Long live the Lord, long live the Lord, why do you involve Confucius? This matter is the decree passed down by Emperor Taizu. Are you still afraid that these civil servants will turn the world upside down?
This gave Wang Chengen a feeling that Emperor Chongzhen was superfluous this time!
Most likely, this is self-defeating!
At this time, he had never thought about adding another foot to the snake, what if he added another horn?
On Wang Chengen's side, he also subconsciously believed that the matter about Kong Sheng was probably made up by Long Live himself!
This is superfluous!
No, in the Jinluan Hall, Liu Zongzhou, the censor of Zuodu, came to his senses, and immediately said to Emperor Chongzhen with a very serious expression: "Your Majesty is a noble person of the Nine Five Years, and he has golden words, how can he be like this... speak like this, ministers, etc.
If you don't hear it, please ask your majesty to read it to the Confucius family in Qufu. After Confucius is the saint, he will return the property and choose another Duke Yan!"
He originally wanted to say how could Emperor Chongzhen talk such nonsense that even Confucius moved out because he coveted the property of the Confucius family in Qufu. But after all, he was just a minister, and Emperor Chongzhen was the father, so he did not dare to go too far.
.
But the meaning is very clear. Who doesn't know that you are an emperor who confiscates the property of the Confucius family in Qufu? As an emperor, do you have any shame in making up such a reason in front of the public?
Compared with his directness, He Fengsheng still said a little tactfully: "I believe what your Majesty says, but how do all the people in the world view this matter? Today, Emperor Taizu and Kong Sheng have appeared. Will there be more in the future?
Others? I don’t know how to announce this kind of thing to the world!"
Zuo Maodi, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, was promoted by Emperor Chongzhen. It is not an exaggeration to say that he was a close confidant. However, at this time, he also said very sincerely: "Unless everyone sees the manifestation of the sages of Taizu, otherwise once this trend spreads,
Open, I am worried that the general will not be the country, please think again, Your Majesty!"
His meaning is very clear. If your emperor really wants to start this way, then others can do the same in the future.
For example, if you want to punish a prisoner, but the prisoner in the hall says that some god or monster asked him to do this, or that Emperor Taizu or someone asked him to do this, what should you do?
Such similar things will inevitably be copied by people all over the world. It is really not nonsense to say that a country is not a country.
In the original history, the Taiping Rebellion that started during the Daoguang period of the Manchu Qing Dynasty was not started in the name of the Heavenly Father. Later, in the struggle for power and profit, everyone began to pretend that the Heavenly Father was possessed for their own selfish interests, which eventually led to civil strife, thus
This made such a mighty uprising finally come to naught!
Although Zuo Maodi did not know the development of this history, he could imagine how much impact it would have on the Ming Dynasty if such a start was made! Therefore, even if he was a close confidant of Emperor Chongzhen, he followed the advice
Remonstrated!
Other civil servants, one after another, echoed their thoughts.
Anyway, the point is that unless they saw it with their own eyes, they would never accept Emperor Chongzhen using Emperor Taizu and Kong Sheng to pressure them.
Seeing this scene, Wang Chengen felt anxious and responded: The emperor is not in a hurry, the eunuch is!
No, I saw Emperor Chongzhen sitting on the throne, looking calmly at the ministers below who were chattering. When it felt like the time was almost up, he sneered and said: "What do you mean, I am pretending to be the ancestor of Taizu."
In the name of the Emperor and Confucius?"
He Fengsheng and others were silent after hearing this, but the expressions on their faces seemed to answer him: Wasn't it?
Seeing this, Emperor Chongzhen stood up and said, "In that case, I respectfully invite Emperor Taizu and Kong Sheng to see if I have lied!"
After he finished speaking, he moved his hand and ordered the two chamberlains beside him to lift a round stool to the bottom, with a shelf specially placed on it for mobile phones.
