Yang Tinghe's gathering of the strength of his subordinates is indeed huge, full of talents, including various yamen, no matter what, the odds of winning are very great.

But the reality is that they didn't even enter Zuo Shunmen, and they were almost wiped out by a group of novices.

Yang Tinghe was really speechless, he couldn't figure it out, are all the young people now refined? Could it be that God sent them down and deliberately went against him?

Yang Tinghe thinks so, it's really right, although he is the first assistant, but standing opposite him, Zhang Xuan is the first assistant in the future, Xia Yan is the first assistant in the future, and even Yan Song, who is silent, is also the first assistant in the future!

Don't think that our official position is not high, so you want to bully us, after all, we are not afraid to be reasonable, and we have the support of Your Majesty!

Zhang Xuan rolled up his sleeves and was unceremoniously.

Taking advantage of this God-given opportunity, he began to count the ministers and promote his views.

"Colleagues on the other side, you are all non-commissioned officers who have studied hard, I don't believe it, you are all blind, deaf, can't see, and can't hear! I want to ask you, how are we Ming? The rule of officials collapsed, and officials were greedy for ink. Land annexation, displaced people everywhere, weak soldiers are exhausted, and Tartars are wantonly invaded...... Salt administration, tax system, clan, honorable ...... Which one doesn't need to be rectified, and which one isn't riddled with holes? ”

"What are you doing in this situation? Let Your Majesty pass on to Xiaozong, you want to tell us that as long as Your Majesty becomes the son of Xiaozong, Xiaozong will have descendants. The officials are not greedy, the soldiers are not afraid of the Tartars, and the homeless people have something to eat, and they will not make trouble! Even the treasury can be filled! We are adults, the pillars of the family, we know that people's livelihood is difficult, and we know that things in the world are not so easy! ”

"Zhang Xuan begs you, stop deceiving yourself, as long as you have a little bit of loyalty to the monarch and the country, you know what you need to do most now. You think you are supporting the right path, but it is written in the annals of history, it will only be you who are chaotic and do not care about the life and death of the people, you must not be a pawn of others, and become an accomplice to the chaos of the court! ”

Zhang Xuan, this guy is really powerful.

At this time, it will not only be able to harden the enemy, but also break the morale of the army.

Many of the courtiers on the opposite side bowed their heads silently.

What Zhang Xuan said is reasonable, the big guys know how chaotic the world is, and they also know why they must insist on the heir...... Although interests are fundamental, no one dares to put these two words on the table in the public.

Facing Zhang Xuan, they couldn't help but lower their heads.

The confrontation between the two armies, once the mind is settled, it is bound to be defeated.

Even if it is as strong as Yang Tinghe, it can't turn things around.

But at this moment, someone secretly ran to the ear of the elder Ge.

"Yuanfu, Empress Dowager Zhang is dead!"

This stupid woman is dead to the end!

She has been stupid all her life, that is, the final death, and has a little value.

A faint smile appeared on Yang Tinghe's face, which flashed, and then his body shook, tears flowed, and he cried heartbreakingly!

Empress Dowager Zhang is dead!

When the news spread, all the courtiers were stunned.

First the Empress Dowager Shaw Brothers, and now the Zhang Family!

You must know that Zhang is the wife of Xiaozong and the mother of Zhengde, and she agreed to canonize Zhu Houxi, and she has great kindness to the Son of Heaven - at least they think so.

How can a good queen mother of a country seek death?

It's not that the Son of Heaven insisted on refusing to respect Xiaozong as the emperor's exam, but he also abused the Empress Dowager Zhang, bullied her old man, and forced the Empress Dowager to commit suicide.

Throughout the dynasties, it is extremely rare to force the Queen Mother to death.

Except for the super chaotic times of the Two Jin Dynasty and the Sixteen Kingdoms, the slightly more normal dynasties only treat the Queen Mother with respect, regardless of whether the Queen Mother's opinion is right or wrong, you can not listen to it, but you must not force the Queen Mother to death.

Otherwise, where is filial piety?

How to lead the world?

The Son of Heaven has done such a rebellious and corrupt thing, if it were an ordinary person, he could be arrested and sent to the yamen for questioning.

It's just that Zhu Houxi is the Son of Heaven, and they can't do it yet.

But it doesn't matter, the death of Empress Dowager Zhang gave everyone a great opportunity, I can only say - God forbid, this woman died too timely!

"You villains who only know the evil of Feng Jun, do you know what just happened? The Empress Dowager Zhaosheng - it's gone! ”

The officials squeezed out two tears for Zhang Chong in the incident, and then his voice was full of emotion, and he was heartbroken!

"The Queen Mother died unexpectedly, what is this? In all dynasties, it is a great shame! My dynasty is in chaos like this, do you dare to obstruct it? ”

"That's right!" Feng Xi also came to the spirit, "The Empress Dowager Zhaosheng just didn't want the court to be chaotic, so she committed suicide and died, so benevolent, comparable to the sun and the moon." As the Son of Heaven, Your Majesty should respect filial piety as the emperor and the Empress Dowager Zhaosheng as the queen mother, so as to demonstrate Your Majesty's filial piety, comfort the spirit of the Empress Dowager Zhaosheng in the sky, and appease the hearts of the people in the world! ”

It's really worthy of being a Hanlin Bachelor, and this ability to adapt to changes is amazing.

His set of rhetoric, with a little polish, can become a good eight-strand article.

Almost in an instant, these science and Taoist officials, the six departments and nine secretaries, all came to the spirit.

"The dynasty rules the world with filial piety, and all kinds of government affairs are nothing more than this. Don't say much, only to meet the Son of Heaven, Chen said it is amazing, please Your Majesty respect the Queen Mother Zhao and appease people's hearts! ”

They shouted at the top of their lungs.

I have to say that relying on the method of making big things to appease people's hearts is also a major invention of theirs.

These people were like they had been beaten with chicken blood, and some of them were crying, as if he was the biological son of Empress Dowager Zhang.

Things have developed to this point, which really exceeded the expectations of Zhang Xuan, Tang Yin and others...... Could it be that His Majesty really forced Empress Dowager Zhang to death?

I have to say that in the eyes of these people, it is right not to agree with the heir, but it is too much to force the Empress Dowager Zhang to death.

The momentum of everyone couldn't help but weaken.

It was at this moment that an unexpected person stepped forward.

Yan Song shook his tall body and said sharply: "Your Majesty's benevolence and filial piety are unprecedented. Respect both the biological father and the aunt. As a courtier, everyone knows it. What is the reason for saying that the death of the Empress Dowager Zhaosheng was the result of His Majesty's unfilial piety? The cause of the death of the Empress Dowager Zhaosheng, are you clear? Such a big matter is related to the holy name of the monarch's father, and you are free to speculate and put the monarch's father in an unrighteous place, is this the way to be a minister? ”

Yan Song's words were really surprising.

All I can say is...... This product deserves to be the longest first assistant of the Jiajing Dynasty!

really always put the Son of Heaven first.

Above the city gate, Zhu Houxi couldn't help nodding frequently.

"It's really rare to be a loyal person."

The little emperor was moved, but when he thought of the words of those courtiers, he was furious. He simply strode down from the city gates.

"Wang Yue, let's go meet these people!"

"Your Majesty, Empress Dowager Zhang has just passed away, do you want to hold a state funeral first, and then say?"

Zhu Houxi hesitated slightly, thought for a moment, and shook his head violently.

"I have a clear conscience! The Zhang family was implicated in the death of the two sons of heaven, if she didn't do it well, she should have died a long time ago! ”

After Zhu Houxi finished speaking, he said to the eunuch in front of him: "Open the door!" ”

Zuo Shun's door opened, and Zhu Houxi strode and appeared in front of the two groups of courtiers.

Zhang Xuan saw the Son of Heaven for the first time, and hurriedly knelt down, and everyone else also knelt down, almost six or seven hundred people, two large pieces of black pressure, it was spectacular!

Zhu Houxi looked down at the ministers, including the first assistant Yang Tinghe. Zhu Houxi didn't let him get up, but said lightly: "Shoufu came with so many people, isn't it to remove me, the son of heaven?" ”

Yang Tinghe hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the old minister has no such intention, my Ming Dynasty only has loyal ministers, not rebel ministers who commit rebellion!" ”

"Good! What a blunt advice! I can tell everyone now, first, I will not recognize my father indiscriminately, and if I want to argue about the succession or the heir, I will never be soft! Second, the Ming Dynasty has accumulated many shortcomings, and it has reached a time when it is impossible not to rectify, and I have asked Yuan Ge Lao, Jia Ge Lao, Yang Tianguan, Wang Bingbu, Wang Shangshu and others to discuss the matter of refreshing and rectifying together. And I also plan to do the first thing, which is to rectify the tax on the acres of land that should be paid, and collect all the money that should be collected, so that it can be used to settle the displaced people and strengthen the armament! I won't allow the Tartars to come and harass my people again! They are not allowed to step into the Great Wall even half a step into the Great Wall! ”

Zhu Houxi announced loudly, don't talk about others, even Wang Yue was moved.

"Long live my emperor!"

"Long live my emperor, long live it!"

The sound of the mountain is deafening, the momentum is like a rainbow, and Mount Tai is overwhelming!

For Yang Ting and his ministers, they didn't expect that the Son of Heaven would dare to face them directly, nor did they expect that Zhu Houxi would dare to announce so strongly, and he wouldn't give them the slightest chance to argue!

It's so easy to look forward to the opportunity, just let it go?

Zhang Chong hurriedly said: "Your Majesty's benevolence and love for the people moved the ministers, and the ministers thought that Your Majesty would not respect filial piety with great benevolence and righteousness, and the great ceremony was agreed, just as the monarch and the ministers were of the same heart, and it was bound to be invincible!" ”

Zhu Houxi's Danfeng eyes narrowed instantly, and the murderous aura was pervasive.

"Wang Yue, what did I just say?"

Wang Yue immediately said: "If you dare to say anything about the heir, you will never be merciful!" Come on, take it, the staff! ”
