Longevity begins with Jinyiwei

But before the common people and scholars reacted from this turmoil, the so-called thunder on the ground, a storm enough to shake the world, came again.
The Son of Heaven decreed to order the Three Jurisdictions to thoroughly investigate the evidence of the Confucian Mansion's crimes circulated among the people, and to return the name of the saint!
The Ministry of Punishment, the cabinet ministers gathered together, and what the chief minister of the cabinet Lai Zongdao held in his hands seemed to be the emperor's imperial decree.
"Return the saint's name..."
Lai Zongdao shook his head and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
What the Son of Heaven said was to restore the name of the saint, but he didn't say that he should restore the name of the saint and the mansion of Confucius.
This Yan Shenggong will no longer exist in the Daheng Dynasty!
Several cabinet ministers looked at each other, but they didn't say a word. Now that they have made a choice, they must be steadfast, double-sided, and never end well!
"Who is going to Shandong?"
After a long silence, Lai Zongdao broke the silence, and his gaze was on the three cabinet ministers.
"I'll go!"
As soon as the words fell, Yang Sichang was the first to speak.
Lai Zongdao glanced at Yang Sichang meaningfully, then at Liu Qiyuan who looked calm, and then nodded.
"Okay, let Yang Ge take care of you."
After finishing speaking, Lai Zongdao glanced at the Jin Yiwei who were coming and going in and out of the hall, as well as the stacks of files, waved his hand, and went towards the inner hall of the Yamen of the Ministry of Punishment without further words.
In this way, Liu Qiyuan also walked away, leaving Yang Sichang and Chen Qiyu standing in place.
"This is not a good job, Brother Yang, you are too impatient this time."
Chen Qiyu shook his head, and glanced at Liu Qiyuan who was leaving: "This time, Brother Yang, you must have offended the Second Assistant Lord."
"If you offend, you will offend."
Yang Sichang didn't care about it: "Today is different from the past, but now, it's not as clear as before."
"We ex-Ming and old officials, one is not your Majesty's cronies, and the other is that we have no merit against Daheng, if we don't seize the opportunity to do our best..."
Speaking of this, Yang Sichang didn't say any more, waved his hand, and walked out of the hall.
Chen Qiyu's face was serious at the moment, he realized that he had overlooked such an important point!
The first contribution to the establishment of Daheng lies in Wu Xun!
After the meritorious deeds of martial arts, it is now the chief assistant and second assistant of the cabinet!
None of them are cronies, and neither of them has made an inch of merit!
It's just because today's world still needs the system of Ming Dynasty!
But he was caught in the trap, thinking that everything was taken for granted, that he had worked so hard to climb up from below!
Why does he stand in the new dynasty and rank high in the cabinet?
Just because he was the governor of the former Ming Dynasty?
At this moment, Chen Qiyu's back was already wet with sweat. Being in the cabinet might be his last chance. If he didn't seize the opportunity, and still maintained the behavior style of the Ming Dynasty, if he still couldn't find a foothold...
He has no doubts, with today's behavior style
It won't be long before he will be ruthlessly beaten down. If you are lucky, you may still be able to save your life. If you are not lucky, then in today's world, the countless house raids and distributions may be his end!
……
The will of the imperial court is barely unified, and the will of Wu Xun is highly unified. This time, the entire ruling organization of Daheng is also the first time that there is a situation of unity of will.
Under such circumstances, the Son of Heaven issued a decree to investigate the Confucian Mansion. This decree that should have caused a shock in the world, this time, it seemed as if it had never happened.
The rolling momentum, with an unstoppable attitude, rushed towards the Confucian Mansion in Shandong.
Under such a overwhelming trend, almost all the knowledgeable scholars have calmed down. The arguments that can be seen everywhere in restaurants and inns in the past have disappeared. Extremely fast processing.
Under such a situation, the turmoil that should have caused shocks in the world ended in an even more anticlimactic manner than the scholar's petition.
It seems that the entire capital city has returned to the tranquility that everyone longs for.
Of course, this peace is obviously not what everyone wants to see.
It's like the Confucian family who came to the capital a long time ago.
Kong Shangtan, the father of the current Duke Yansheng, and Kong Zhenning, the grandfather.
The two of them set off from the Confucian mansion and rushed to the capital as early as the emperor's personal conquest and return.
When they first arrived in the capital, with the reputation of Lord Yansheng, the two of them were naturally the guests of the officials in the capital. However, after they were rejected when they wanted to meet the emperor today, this kind of welcome seemed to have changed. The doors of the officials' houses were closed tightly, which also kept them out.
However, this is only a minority, the vast majority of officials are still extremely enthusiastic.
And with the storm of public opinion against their Confucian Mansion, their treatment in the capital almost plummeted.
Except for some scholars who still regard them as gods, almost all the officials of the court regard them as plague gods.
The door of the mansion is closed, and they refuse to meet each other!
Even if they met on the street, they pretended not to know each other.
But now, with the order of the emperor, the entire capital, their dignified descendants of sages, have ended up in a fate that no one can avoid!
"tyrant!"
"A tyrant never seen before!"
"After I waited for the sages, all dynasties and dynasties have enjoyed the dignity, how dare he act like this?"
"He is not afraid of great chaos in the world, and he is not afraid of the loss of people's hearts!"
Kong Shangtan's face was ferocious, and he could not stop shouting and cursing.
"Okay, so what about incompetent rage!"
It wasn't until Kong Zhenning scolded him that Kong Shangtan closed his mouth unwillingly.
"The most urgent thing is to see this tyrant!"
Kong Zhenning said with a gloomy face, "His posture is completely aimed at our Confucian residence!"
"As the saying goes, it's not too early to be profitable. This tyrant can't do anything to us for no reason. He definitely has other plans!"
"Only by meeting him can we know what he is planning!"
"The road to Chaotang is impassable, so go directly to the Meridian Gate!"
"This old man wants to see if this tyrant really dares to leave me waiting for the sages in full view!"
"Go down and get ready, tomorrow morning, I'll go straight to the Meridian Gate!"
……
Chapter 5 and Seven
When the sun was rising, the court meeting in Chengtian Palace was still going on, but outside the Meridian Gate, there were two figures slowly approaching.
"Stop! This is an important part of the imperial palace, the idlers, etc., leave quickly!"
Some soldiers scolded impatiently.
"General, I am the grandfather of Yan Shenggong, the contemporary Yan Shenggong of Yanshenggong Mansion. I request to have an audience with His Majesty, and I hope the general will agree..."
"Yan Shenggong?"
The general frowned, and turned his head to look at the general beside him: "I remember, this general, there is no Yan Shenggong in this dynasty, right?"
"General, Duke Yan Sheng belonged to the previous dynasty, and His Majesty has never conferred the title of Duke Yan Sheng!"
Someone will reply immediately.
"That's the official from the previous court..."
"You guys are so brave!"
The general shouted loudly, then waved his hand, and several soldiers surrounded him.
"We are the queen of the sages, what are you going to do? Aren't you afraid of being scolded by the world?"
Kong Zhenning leaned on a cane, pointed at several generals and scolded them.
"After the bullshit sages, now it's the Daheng dynasty, why are you pretending to be a wolf with a big tail!"
"Catch them all!"
The general yelled loudly, several soldiers from the imperial battalion swarmed up, and pushed the two descendants of the Confucian Mansion, who were both guests in the capital, to the ground roughly, and tied them with hemp rope. It looks like a prisoner.
But at this time, the court meeting was over before the eyes, when the gate of the palace was wide open, all the officials came out from the Meridian Gate, and it was Kong Zhenning and his son who were like prisoners.
The ones who walked in the front were undoubtedly Wu Xun and the leaders of the civil servants. Naturally, Wu Xun didn't even look at the father and son Kong Zhenning.
As for the cabinet ministers, after taking a glance at Kong Zhenning and his son, they immediately turned their eyes away, looking at their noses, noses and hearts, as if they didn't see it at all.
As for the civil servants who came out in twos and threes following the cabinet ministers, Kong Zhenning and Kong Zhenning, who were guests of their house not long ago, almost looked like they were strangers to each other.
In the face of personal interests and ideological beliefs, these civil servants chose personal interests without hesitation.
When the news of the palace gate was quickly heading towards the Qianqing Palace, in the Qianqing Palace, the emperor was summoning the two important ministers, the Duke of Jingguo and the Commander of Jin Yiwei.
In the hall, Lord Yasukuni's report could be heard clearly, cruel numbers spit out from Lord Yasukuni's mouth without any emotional fluctuations, and finally passed into the ears of the emperor.
The Son of Heaven also looked indifferent. It has been more than half a year since the tax case started as a major case, and the number of people involved in the case is already the highest in history!
In just over half a year, the population of the bitterly cold places outside the Liaodong Corridor has increased by more than [-]%, from the original population of more than [-] to more than [-]!
It is obvious, among them, who are the more than [-] people who have increased dramatically!
The case has spread so far, those who are guilty, and those who can be found guilty, in fact, have already been found out.
The ones that are still being arrested and investigated now, in fact, although it is still a tax case, it has nothing to do with taxation.
In the name of continuing the tax case, it is just to clear the last obstacle for reform.
Just like the case of the Confucian Mansion, which is currently in charge of the Three Law Departments, it is the same.
What he is doing now is not much different from what the emperors of the Han Dynasty were doing. They moved local wealthy merchants to attack local powerful forces.
It's just that he is using this tax case to get involved.
Only when the old order is broken and the new order can be implemented smoothly to the end, can the new interests under the new order be born smoothly.
As for the blood flowing alternately between the old and the new...
It just made his name as a tyrant even more bloody.
These, Emperor Zhaowu, don't care anymore.
"The Confucian mansion..."
As soon as the Son of Heaven uttered his voice, the sound of hurried footsteps sounded outside the hall.
Immediately afterwards, a soldier of the Imperial Battalion stepped into the hall.
"Report to Your Majesty, there are thieves in the name of Qian Chaoyan Shenggong, intending to forcibly break into the palace gate and charge..."
The emperor frowned, and then glanced at Li Ruolian: "Is the Confucian mansion connected to the south?"
"Have."
Li Ruolian responded immediately: "Your Majesty, the Confucian Mansion has never cut off its connection with the south, and Mongolia, the Confucian Mansion also has secret contacts..."
"Is there any evidence?"
the emperor asked.
Li Ruolian replied: "The evidence is all there, and it hasn't been handed over to the Three Law Departments."
The Son of Heaven looked at Li Ruolian meaningfully, and then nodded, "That's right."
"It's best to keep the evidence, so that the Confucian Mansion and the South are actually involved!"
"These two Confucian people, you handle it well."
"Subordinates obey."
Li Ruolian immediately took the order.
The Son of Heaven waved his hand and gave some instructions, but when he saw the hypocrisy on the map, he suddenly chuckled.
It has to be said that the existence of Nanming really solved most of the problems for him.
