In February of the forty-fifth year of Jiajing (1566 AD), Hai Rui, the head of Yunnan Province, wrote to the imperial court, accusing Jiajing of ignoring the government for many years, breaking the world and cultivating longevity, making the world withered, angry and resentful, and directly reprimanded Jiajing's era name as "family clean".

This paper book shocked the court like a thunderbolt, and Emperor Jiajing's hands trembled when he saw the song, and he roared vigorously: Hurry up and grab Hai Rui, don't let him run away!

Huang Jin, the eunuch beside Emperor Jiajing, smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, this person is a fool, he won't run, I heard that he dismissed his family before he went to school, bought a coffin by himself, and left only an old servant to collect the body for him. ”

When Emperor Jiajing heard this, he was stunned, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

Of course, the emperor's temperament is clear to the people around him: if you beg for death, I won't let you die, and if you are afraid of death, I will execute you immediately. Since Hai Jui is bent on death, of course he can't do what he wants.

The ministers of the palace, Xu Jie, and others scolded Hai Rui one after another, in fact, this is to save him, if someone agrees with Hai Rui at this time, not only will this person be punished with a felony, but Hai Rui will also die.

Before Emperor Jiajing could decide what to do, Xu Jie and the others agreed to put Hai Rui in prison first and wait for the holy judgment.

Since the fall of Yan Song, Jiajing has not been scolded by the ministers, those ministers used to scold Yan Song, no one dared to scold the emperor directly, Hai Rui actually pointed at his face and scolded, and it was completely and incomplete.

What kind of imperial court discipline is galloping, famous and chaotic, thin than monarchs and ministers, thin and father and son, thin and husband and wife, this is simply skinning him from head to toe. What Jiajing can't stand the most is Hai Rui's attack on his year name "Jiajiajing", the emperor's duty is to benefit all the people, isn't "Jiajiajing" the biggest loser, what else does this emperor do?

Emperor Jiajing was annoyed and angry, and he walked around the palace all day, and the person became a * barrel that would explode at any time.

Eunuch Sili, Eunuch Bingbi, and Xu Jie, and other important ministers had no choice but to accompany the king to worry, on the one hand, trying to alleviate his anger, and on the other hand, thinking about how to save Hai Rui from death.

In the afternoon, Emperor Jiajing suddenly stopped, waved the song in his hand and sighed: "This person is a loyal minister, indeed a loyal minister." ”

Xu Jie and the others chuckled in their hearts, if Emperor Jiajing scolded Hai Rui, it would be better to say something, but now he suddenly praised him inexplicably, which is not a good phenomenon.

So everyone began to scold Hai Rui for being stupid, just to let Emperor Jiajing not be like this idiot.

In the end, Emperor Jiajing didn't decide what punishment to give Hai Rui, but said several times a day that Hai Rui was a loyal minister, a great loyal minister. That night, he was angry and sick.

The palace was very busy, all thinking about saving the emperor, and no one cared about Hai Rui's affairs.

Xu Jie and the others had no choice but to think in the long run, since the emperor did not execute Hai Rui at the first time, there was naturally a way to save him, at least he could not be convicted of capital crimes. The people of the Criminal Department were ordered to arrest Hai Jui and put him in the prison of the Criminal Department, and he was treated as a death row prisoner.

After reading Hai Rui's recital, the Tai students of Guozijian in Beijing were so enthusiastic that hundreds of Tai students went to Que to write a letter to Hai Rui to appeal for their grievances, and they were willing to die instead of their lives.

Xu Jie and the others shook their heads, isn't this adding to the chaos? To avenge Hai Rui is to send him to the knife, on the contrary, scolding him is to save him, if the court is scolded, Hai Rui will definitely be saved. How do the students know the mystery of this, they are indeed out of extreme affection and nature, but they have the opposite effect and make a mess of things.

Xu Jie knew best in his heart that if he wanted to save Hai Rui, the only way was to call him a nerd, an unreasonable, pedantic nerd, only in this way could Emperor Jiajing let him go, because Emperor Jiajing had a good reputation, and he didn't want people to think that he was angry with a nerd who didn't understand the world. This makes sense but doesn't show any traces, because too many people usually say that Hai Jui is a nerd.

If Hai Rui was a celebrity before, then on the cusp of this storm, he quickly became a high-profile Internet celebrity.

The Tai students of Nanjing Guozijian were not willing to lag behind the North Prison, and wanted to go to Que to write a book, and some bloody young people wrote a blood letter, willing to die on behalf of their bodies, they came to the Nanjing Left-behind Mansion, submitted the petition to the Nanjing Left-behind Mansion, and asked the Left-behind Mansion to play on their behalf.

There are also people who come to the Zhongshan Palace's mansion to petition, the angry Duke Wei simply hides and does not show up, and the meritorious heroes and military generals are not allowed to hear about state affairs, how can these people forget?

Moreover, many people in the Su Studies Association began to discuss how to avenge the grievances of the Hai people, and many people wanted to go to Beijing and kneel outside the palace gate with the students of the North Prison to ask the emperor to pardon Hai Rui.

Besides, he didn't have the heart to think about this, Emperor Jiajing fell ill on the night of Hai Rui's book, and this news was tantamount to a soul hypnotic for him.

"Senior brother, what should we do, can you give me an idea?" Ning Cheng and the others all came to make a decision.

They thought that they must be like them, or even more passionate than them, but how did they know that this matter was no less dangerous than Hai Rui, and Hai Rui still had a large group of people thinking about saving him, but who would save him?

He just smiled and said: "Don't worry about this matter, let's take a look at the movements of the imperial court first, Xu Xiang and the others have been trying to save Hai Rui." They are much more energetic than us, and we can not play a big role in going to the book like this, have you forgotten the big etiquette event? ”

Ningcheng and others suddenly had a province, and in the big ceremonial incident, it was the bachelor Yang Shen who took the lead, led some courtiers to petition outside the palace gate, cried bitterly and didn't say anything, and finally regretted the palace gate, which directly caused a complete break between Emperor Jiajing and Yang Tinghe and other ministers, and finally Yang Tinghe and Zhishi, Yang Shen and others were dismissed from their posts and assigned to the frontier, and they were not pardoned for life.

"Don't be reckless, is it important to save Lord Hai or to reason with the emperor right now?" He asked.

"Of course, it is important to save Lord Hai first, and the truth will be explained slowly in the future." Ning Cheng and the others realized some taste.

"If you want to save Lord Hai, then wait and see for the time being, now the bigger the noise we make, the more unfavorable it will be to Lord Hai, if you want to reason with the emperor, I have no objection to you going to Beijing, I will pay for the journey." But to do so is to put a nail in the coffin of the sea lord. Besides.

Ning Cheng and the others couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, thinking about it carefully, there is really some truth in it, Jiajing Imperial Kingdom for forty-five years, the subjects somewhat understand his character, he is a person who eats soft and does not eat hard, if he adopts extreme confrontational means, the result may be worse.

"In that case, why did the people of the North Prison do that, they should understand this truth?" A student asked.

Besides, he smiled bitterly: "I don't know, but I always feel that the people in the North Prison are being used." ”

"Taken advantage of?" Ning Cheng and the others were shocked again.

Besides, I smiled bitterly in my heart, what's so strange about this, the easiest thing to be used by people has always been the students, and most of the student movements in later generations are planned and promoted by an organization behind them, but there may not be an invisible hand in Beijian's visit to Que Shangshu this time.

"Let's wait for everyone, although Lord Hai has been imprisoned, when the sentence is agreed, the criminal department still has to draft a document, since the emperor did not immediately execute Lord Hai, he will have to go through the legal process later. As long as Xu Xiang and the people in the Criminal Department really want to save Lord Hai, at least the capital crime can be exempted. Besides.

"We just don't understand, which sentence in Haida's recital is wrong? Why should those who tell the truth and reason be convicted? Those mediocre ministers are prosperous one by one. A student shouted.

"You can talk to the court about this, I can guarantee that the court will not kill you, but you will definitely be expelled and then assigned to guard the border, if you can come out, I support you." Besides, he sneered.

"I want to be with Master Hai and accompany him on death row." A student who didn't know whether he really admired Hai Rui or didn't know anything about the world muttered.

"Well, I support you more, I'll give you five hundred taels of silver for the passage when I go back, and I can also find someone to take you to death row in the Criminal Department." Besides, shrugging his shoulders, there are really people who are so confused that they don't want to die.

"Don't make a fuss, listen to the senior brother, the senior brother has always thought about us." Ning Cheng shouted.

"But...... What kind of world is it now, why can't you even find a place to reason, Lord Hai is obviously talking about the truth of heaven and earth, but he will be convicted, or even sentenced to death, what kind of world is this? The person who was full of passion for Hai Rui's grievances had red eyes and said with his arms folded.

Besides, sighing, this actually has nothing to do with the world, no society is perfect, the so-called heaven and earth can only be said in books, and it is difficult for the real society to be completely consistent with books, otherwise there will be no need for books.

Many people present shed tears of grief and indignation, they all sincerely felt unfair for Hai Rui, and really wanted to help Hai Rui avenge his grievances and rescue him from death row, but now they found that they could not do anything, and this sense of powerlessness was the saddest thing.

"Everyone believes me, Lord Hai is fine, not only will he be rescued, but he will also be prosperous in the future." Besides, the color is right.

"Senior brother, do you have any secret information channels?"

"Senior brother, is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince going to save Lord Hai from danger?"

"Didn't Old Master Chen write to the emperor to rescue Lord Hai?"

……

Besides, as soon as they said it, the enthusiasm of these people immediately rose, and some of them knew that they were going to Zhang Juzheng's shogunate in the future, and Zhang Juzheng was the prince's teacher, and his words were tantamount to implying that His Royal Highness the prince would come forward to save Hai Rui, or Chen Musa would come forward, and the old master was a person who had a certain influence on the emperor.

In fact, they all thought wrong, and they said this because he was from the past, and knew that Hai Rui was really fine, and he also served as the Jiangnan Patrol in the future, and his official fortune was prosperous, and it could even be said that he had reached the sky in one step.

"Don't ask what is going on, I can assure you that Lord Hai is fine, if something happens to Lord Hai, I will die with my body."

Besides, I really didn't want these people to make trouble in vain, so I had to pat my chest and give them assurances.

"Well, since Senior Brother said so, we believe that Senior Brother is."

"Yes, the senior brother is the most well-informed person, and when the senior brother says this, he is completely sure."

Besides, with a wry smile, the people of the Su Studies Association really trust him unconditionally.
