The officials raised their eyelids, thinking that the death of the two had brought dawn, but what the old man said next chilled their hearts to the bottom.
"Okay, I'm not the kind of person who doesn't care about feelings or reason."
Raising his finger and pointing behind him, the old man looked at all the officials and sneered, "It's actually very simple for me to cancel these two policies."
"Aren't you head irons? Use your heads to break the altar, or fill the entire Taimiao with your corpses. Of course, if you can really invite my father to come over and let me cancel these two policies, I will also Follow my father's orders."
"As long as you can do one of these three things, I will withdraw those two policies, and personally issue an edict to apologize to the literati and gentlemen of the world."
The officials felt bitter when they heard the words, this is forcing them to die.
The altar was smashed, it was made of red sandalwood, and it was inlaid with gold edges, not to mention harder than stone, but it was not much worse.
The corpses filled the entire Taimiao, and the officials secretly called the large Taimiao, thinking that it might be more reliable to smash the table.
As for asking Zhu Yuanzhang to talk to Zhu Di in person, well, let's discuss how to smash the table, after all, it's more reliable.
"Why is no one here?"
After talking for a long time, seeing that no one moved below, the old man sneered and waved to Ji Gang who was on duty outside.
"See the emperor!"
Ji Gang stepped forward to pay respects.
The old man waved his hand to get him up, then put his hand on Ji Gang's shoulder, and said, "Didn't you report to me in the morning that there are more than a dozen people who are ready to die, go find those people."
"The delicious food, the wine and the beauties have all enjoyed it. Now it's their turn to contribute, and they will naturally stand up. As the saying goes, a gentleman's words are hard to follow. Once you promise to others, you must do it."
"It's so cowardly that I can't even do it now. I'm so sorry for those delicacies, and those beauties who recommended themselves to be pillows for the righteousness of a gentleman."
When the old man and Ji Gang said this, they didn't lower their voices.
The dozen or so officials whose heads were almost lying on the ground turned pale when they heard the old man tell what they had experienced in the morning.
They thought they were doing it covertly enough, but they didn't expect the emperor to know exactly what they did, what time period, and where they were.
It's over!
Before they could make any move, Ji Gang rushed forward with dozens of Jin Yiwei and pulled them out.
"Your majesty, please forgive me, I am willing to confess, I am willing to confess!"
"Mr. Hun, you will die a terrible death if you are so cruel to Zhongliang!"
"Zhu Di's anti-thief, you unfilial descendant, you did such unconscionable things in the Taimiao. After you go underground, how can you face the Emperor Taizu?"
"God, open your eyes and see, such a foolish king, why don't you punish him."
More than a dozen people were dragged out, some frightened and begged for mercy, some cursed, and some asked the sky angrily.
The old man didn't seem to hear the yelling of these people, and said to the two Jinyiwei Baihu who followed behind him: "Continue with the two of you."
After the first time and the second time to get started, the two hundred households also completely let go.
By killing those two officials, the civil society has already been offended, and the two can only rely on the emperor.
If the emperor is satisfied, their lives will be saved. If the emperor is not satisfied, even if the emperor does not kill them, the civil servants will not spare them.
Although these scholars look gentle on the surface, in fact, they both know very well in their hearts that this group of scholars is more ruthless than those butchers when it comes to killing and torturing people.
So for the lives of the whole family, they can only send these adults who died for righteousness to the road.
There were screams and impacts, and soon a dozen more corpses were lost in the Taimiao.
"There is still a deadly remonstrance, just because everyone is here today, and in front of our ancestors of the Zhu family, we can open up today if we have anything to say."
"I'm not the kind of person who doesn't listen to advice. I'm also a gentleman who listens widely. I'll give you a chance today."
"Today, let's explain things clearly. You can't keep anything in your heart and don't say it. If you don't say it, how can I know what you are thinking? I thought everyone supported my idea. Everyone said it is not."
"However, let's make it clear in advance that it's only today. If you continue to be stubborn and use this as an excuse to make trouble everywhere, then don't blame me for disregarding the relationship between the monarch and his ministers for many years."
The old man sat on the chair brought by Zhu Zhangui, his eyes glanced at the civil servants group indifferently, and at the same time, he turned his eyes to the military generals kneeling on the other side.
Although the old man's words were pleasant to hear, everyone felt chills in their hearts.
The tone of this speech is a bit like negotiating, it's completely like holding a knife on your neck, and then asking you if you have any objections to him.
The military generals who have always been brave, like quails today, shrank their heads and dared not make a sound.
They can see that the emperor is determined to implement the system of paying food for officials and gentry.
Whoever dares to oppose will die.
If I agree, it's easy to talk about. With the character of the old man, I know that everyone will be compensated for the loss.
But if you don't agree, then I'm sorry, not only will I not give you any benefits, but I will force you to carry it out. If you don't complete the task, you will have to move your head. This is the logic of the old man's work.
"Your Majesty, I feel that the government and the gentry should pay the grain together. It is a good policy, it is an achievement that benefits the country and the people, and it is the cornerstone of our great Ming inheritance for thousands of years. Therefore, I agree with this policy and strongly support it."
"Also in order to set an example, I, the royal family and vassals of the Ming Dynasty, should also join in and pay taxes according to the population and land!"
Just as the civil servants were kneeling on the ground, ready to fight the old man to the death, a voice of support sounded.
Everyone heard the sound and looked, and saw Ning Wang Zhu Quan standing up with a serious expression, and Kang passionately expounded his thoughts.
The old man glanced at King Ning and Zhu Quan, and nodded in satisfaction.
"Sure enough, it's the brother of Dahu, or my family is reliable. Since the seventeenth brother has said so, then do as you said, and the vassal king will also join in."
The other princes gave Ning Wang Zhu Quan a vicious look. Although they wished to beat this old man to death, they could only support him with a dry smile under the old man's slightly narrowed eyes.
"The ministers and other military generals will fully support His Majesty, and in order to set an example for the gentry in the world, we will not only pay every year in the future, but also make up for this year."
A veteran of the generals group stepped forward and made a decision on behalf of the generals group.
Not supported to die.
The expression on the old man's face clearly indicated that if there is no result today, it will not be settled easily. The generals did not dare to resist anymore, they exchanged eye contact for a while, and made a decision directly.
Just pay the money, anyway, that little money can't get home, and people can't starve to death without that little money.
It's not worth risking the lives of the whole family for that little profit.
Anyway, their military generals group did not suffer much. Although the Ming Dynasty had military imperial examinations, because the current military generals group is hereditary or family heirloom, few of the military officers who passed the exam set foot on high positions. The benefits and benefits of civil servants are far from those of civil servants, so it doesn't matter if you fight or not.
Coupled with the reason of the military household system, officials and gentry pay food as a whole, in fact, the influence on military officials is not as great as that of civil officials.
"I wait for the nobles, and I also support His Majesty!"
The military generals group had just expressed their position. Li Jinglong, the representative of the Xungui Group, stood up bravely under the gaze of the old man, and announced that the Xungui Group unconditionally supported the emperor.
Good guy, three of the four major powers in the imperial court have already raised their hands and surrendered, and only the civil servants are still holding on.
Everyone turned their heads to look at San Yang. These three people can actually be regarded as representatives of the civil official group. As long as the three people compromise, the rest will be easy to handle.
But Sanyang kept silent, just closed his eyes and knelt on the ground motionless, without any intention of compromising.
The interest network behind the civil officials is really too big. The officials and the gentry pay the food as a whole. Not only the interests of the civil official group are violated, but also the status of the civil official group for thousands of years. If they compromise, they will face the accusation of thousands of people. Spite and scold, I will lose even the slightest bit of reputation in the future.
What do literati want, isn't it just a bit of fame? Without a reputation, what's the point of living.
So knowing that doing so would offend the old man, and might even threaten the lives of the family, even if they were backstabbed three times in a row, they could only grit their teeth and resist.
They have compromised on the new learning, resulting in the current school of new learning, which has faintly threatened the status of Confucianism.
In order not to repeat the same mistakes again, they will not choose to compromise this time. Either the emperor agrees to their conditions and withdraws the two policies, or the emperor kills them all.
They didn't believe it anymore, the old man really dared to kill all civil servants in the world.
If Zhu Di really dared to do this, the Ming Dynasty could be said to be over. Without civil servants, would it be necessary to rely on military generals and elders to manage the government, or let those newcomers who have not grown hair on their mouths become officials.
So they had confidence in their hearts, and they didn't believe that Zhu Di had such a big risk of catching a cold and sent them all to prison.
"Yang Shiqi, I'm going to give you a chance now. As long as you choose to accept the government and gentry as a whole, and don't mention it in the future, I can forget about what you did today. I can also let go of the families of the dozen or so guys. Pass."
Looking at the civil servants kneeling motionless, the old man narrowed his eyes, got up and walked in front of Yang Shiqi, and said something to him in a low voice.
He intends to give this guy one last chance, and it is also the last chance for the civil servants.
It's a pity that his kindness was ignored, and the last chance he gave was regarded by Yang Shiqi as submissive.
Yang Shiqi, who was closing the curtain, opened his eyes when he heard the words, looked at the old man who was staring at him, and said calmly: "There is a mistake in the government order, and the ministers should speak up and speak out, fearing life and death and flattering the emperor. They are not worthy of being ministers. More unworthy of being human.”
Kowtowing deeply on the ground, Yang Shiqi said loudly: "Please take the emperor's order into consideration for the overall situation, for the sake of the country and the country, and take back the holy order!"
"Please take the emperor's order into consideration for the overall situation, for the sake of the country and the country, and take back the sacred order!"
As Yang Shiqi bowed down, the civil servants behind him kowtowed and loudly responded.
"Okay, very good!"
Seeing that he fed the dog with his kindness, the old man was completely angry.
He pointed at Ji Gang and shouted angrily:
"All of them will be sent to Jinyiwei Imperial Prison for me. I want to see how hard their bones are!"
The generals and vassals who heard the old man's decision were all dumbfounded.
Nima, this is too much, all civil servants have been arrested, this is probably the first time in history.
Ming Wang Zhu Quan was so happy in his heart,
The more Zhu Di tried to die, the more opportunities he had.
For that little money, offending the entire literati group, Zhu Laosi really doesn't want to feel better.
Tsk tsk tsk, I have been looking forward to it for a long time and finally it is today. After waiting for a long time, my dream has finally come true. The throne, I, King Ning Zhu Quan, is here.
Chapter 295: The generous and benevolent crown prince has a wide body and a black belly!
"I said don't worry about it here, or you can talk to the old man again, and it won't be a problem to arrest people!"
"There are so many things going on in the imperial court every day. Without these people, we can't rely on you all. It would be strange if people were not exhausted."
In the East Palace, the whole family sat in the room, Zhu Pangpang sat in the main seat, resting his hand on his forehead, worrying there, Mrs. Zhang walked around the room, chattering non-stop.
Originally, she would not interfere in this kind of state affairs, but today this matter is no longer possible, and all the civil servants of the Manchu Dynasty have been arrested. If this matter has no head, then it is no wonder that her husband is not exhausted.
There are so many things in the imperial court every day, and these officials are needed to help. If there are no these officials, and I rely on my husband to deal with it, I don’t have to wait until the next year when I ascend the throne. Next year, I can prepare for my husband’s funeral.
"What can I do? It's not like you don't know the old man's temper. Now both sides are stubborn. I have a headache now, one hurts and the other hurts!"
With a bitter face, Zhu Pangpang clapped his hands helplessly. He picked up the teacup next to him and wanted to take a sip, but in the end he threw the cup on the table in annoyance.
"What's all this called!"
Seeing that her husband had no thoughts, Mrs. Zhang turned around anxiously, thinking about how to help her husband solve this problem.
But just after turning around twice, she inadvertently noticed that there were two brothers sitting at the next table, one was also worried and trying to find a solution, while the other was eating snacks and drinking tea very calmly.
This phenomenon is actually very normal. Zhu Zhanji will only be a vassal king in the future, and this has nothing to do with him at all. It is normal not to worry, but it is wrong to worry.
But what Zhang saw was different from what she imagined.
Zhu Zhanji was holding his teacup and frowning in thought, thinking of a way for his couple.
But Zhu Zhangui, who was supposed to be the most anxious, ate snacks and drank tea very calmly, as if what happened today had nothing to do with him.
"You brat, your father is already in such a hurry, why don't you worry at all, if your grandfather and civil servants break up, the world will be in chaos, and it will be difficult for you to take over from your father's job safely. .”
Seeing that this brat didn't look worried or distressed, Mrs. Zhang couldn't get angry.
A few of them were anxiously running around the room, this brat didn't seem worried at all, he was really pissed off.
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and finally he stepped forward and grabbed Zhu Zhangui's ear.
"Hey, my mother, what are you doing!"
Zhu Zhangui, who was caught by his ears, stood up in pain and covered his ears.
"What am I doing? I still want to ask you what you are doing. Are you not worried about such a big incident? Why are you so big?"
Pulling away his mother's hand, Zhu Zhangui rubbed his ears and said with a mysterious smile: "There's nothing to worry about, the sky hasn't fallen yet, everything is under control."
As soon as the words came out, the three people in the room all looked at him, and Zhu Pangpang stood up anxiously, drove the waiters out, and closed the door.
"You and your grandfather, didn't you expect this step a long time ago?"
After driving away the outsiders and leaving only a family of 4 in the house, Zhu Pangpang walked up to Zhu Zhangui and asked with a serious expression.
Zhu Zhangui smiled slightly, "Didn't I say, everything is under control."
"Boss, let me interject. Now that the trouble has become like this, how can it be under control."
