Chapter 21: The Big Case
There is no impermeable wall in the world, and the news that Zhu Youxiao and Wei Zhongxian secretly ran out to hunt soon spread throughout the government and the opposition.
We don't know how it was spread, anyway, the next day the Manchu Dynasty civil and military affairs all knew, and the Donglin Party was up and down at this time.
The theme is that today's saint Zhu Youxiao ignores the government and politics, and the half-month period of not coming to the court has passed, and he is still addicted to the fun of hunting.
Zhu Youxiao didn't react when he heard this kind of thing, but Wei Zhongxian was angry, and even scolded all the big stalls in Dongchang.
What the hell! These people slander the Holy Oracle so much, don't they catch it and wait for the cubs?
In December, the city of Beijing is already a little cool, and the pedestrians on the street have all changed into thick clothes.
Early in the morning, in the Donglin Academy on a certain street, the scholars were listening to the lecturer above criticizing the government, and everyone even gathered outside.
Many people don't know why, and when they see so many scholars gathered to discuss current affairs, they are also curious, and they have gathered over.
For a time, the market here was clogged and pedestrians were not smooth, and because this kind of gathering had seriously delayed the normal livelihood of the surrounding people, many people reported to the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division and the Shuntianfu Yamen.
However, it is useless, the Imperial History of the Five Cities Terracotta Division, and the prefect of Shuntian Mansion are also from the Donglin Party.
It's good that people didn't follow along, so who would care about you.
After the establishment of Donglin Academy, the lecturers were not fixed, and they were generally invited to come over by a certain bigwig or so-called sage who served in the court.
Sometimes it's every half a month, sometimes it's every few months.
But since the Emperor of the Apocalypse ascended the throne, the frequency of Donglin's lectures has become faster and faster, and in the past few days, he has been preaching every day, and the surrounding people are miserable.
It's hard to live now, who wants to hear this.
I want to do a small business or go out to farm now, you guys are very evil, why don't I see any difference?
I heard that the emperor also exempted the Huaibei disaster area for three years, this emperor you sprayed, and we know that the emperor is a person?
The one who was standing on the side and spitting this time was none other than Feng Sanyuan, the imperial historian of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
"Today's saints are deceived by eunuchs, ignoring the government and politics, but they have a soft spot for hunting, from ancient times to the present, which Ming monarch and holy lord have done this?"
"That Wei Gelding criticized the red with his pen, I don't know how many people of insight have been harmed!"
Feng Sanyuan said, took a sip of water, and continued: "A few days ago, this official presented a note to the emperor, impeaching Xiong Tingbi for eight unplanned things, but now it is like a stone sinking into the sea, and there is no trace. ”
"Incompetent people like Xiong Tingbi were all praised by Wei Gelding's stinky feet, so they would be reused by the emperor, but Yuan Yingtai, a civil and military all-rounder, was recalled to Beijing and served as a waiter of the Ministry of Rites with no authority."
"You all look at it, something will happen in Liaodong sooner or later!"
When the Donglin scholars below heard this, they all shouted excitedly: "My generation is full of poetry and books, so I should contribute to the country!" ”
"Today, the emperor is deceived by eunuchs, and my generation should advise by example, so as to live in vain the way of sages!"
Zhu Youxiao already knew about this matter, not to mention that the Donglin Party could fight against the Qichu and Zhejiang Party, and they were all up and down, and all the ways were arranged.
A bunch of bigwigs control the government and politics in the court, and the people below, as well as a group of scholars who are preaching Donglin Avenue one after another, are about to catch up with the pyramid schemes of later generations!
However, it was clearly not a good day for them.
Since Wei Zhongxian supervised the East Factory, it has always been Liu Qiao's Beizhen Fusi who has arrested people, and the East Factory seems to have disappeared, and there has been no movement.
Wei Zhongxian has been knocking on Zhu Youxiao's meaning all these days, and he is also collecting criminal evidence, and after waiting for a long time, he still plans to do it!
Just when the scholars raised their fists and planned to go to Chengtianmen for a bloody admonition, a team of Dongchang fans came from the corner of the street.
The leader of this group of people is Wei Zhongxian's nephew, Fu Yingxing.
Wei Zhongxian inserted Fu Yingxing into the East Factory to make a stall, but the credit was not enough, and he couldn't convince the public to make a big stall directly, so he then handed over the errand to Liaodong to him, and the intention couldn't be more obvious.
After returning to Beijing, this kid unexpectedly became the first big stall leader of Dongchang.
Seeing Fanzi coming, the pedestrians were not afraid, they avoided it one after another, stood on the side of the road, and watched these Fanzi go straight to Donglin Academy.
"The people from the East Factory are here!"
"This is the first time that the new dynasty has come out, it seems that the disaster of this group of students is coming." An inn fat man gloated:
"These gentlemen, they don't do serious things, they block the door all day long to give lectures, and they don't make a fuss!"
"Now it's okay, someone has cleaned them up."
The people were whispering, and the scholars who were still arrogant just now saw Fanzi turn around, and some people slipped away directly, even if they were still standing here, they didn't dare to shout loudly.
Feng Sanyuan, the imperial historian of the Metropolitan Inspection Academy, who was lecturing, saw that the situation was not good, and he had already jumped down and disappeared.
Fu Yingxing stopped in front of the door, looking at at at least hundreds of soldiers waiting in front of him, and a touch of ridicule appeared on his face: "Donglin Academy, heh, it's quite capable?" ”
"Dare to say anything? Yes? ”
Wherever Fu Yingxing went, the scholars got out of the way, and it wasn't until he walked into the lobby of Donglin Academy with Fanzi that someone mustered up the courage to say:
"You gelding, follow Wei Gelding to deceive the emperor, my generation of scholars, all ashamed of you!"
Fu Yingxing didn't say anything, walked to the lecture room with the Yiyongtang plaque, and found that Feng Sanyuan ran away, and he didn't care, anyway, the monk can't run away from the temple, so I'll take you today!
"The trip of Yide, the mediocre words." After reading the eight big characters on the wall, Fu Yingxing walked in front of the scholar who had just spoken, and asked with a smile: "Hey, look at your clothes, you should also be a showman." ”
"I don't read much, what do these eight words mean?"
"This, this..." That Xiucai was speechless, and after a moment, Fu Yingxing laughed, pointed a knife at the soldiers present, and said loudly:
"Even if you are up to you, you dare to discuss current affairs? Who gave you courage and confidence! ”
"All of them will be taken away by Lao Tzu and taken to the Dongchang prison, and those who dare to resist will be executed on the spot!" After speaking, Fu Yingxing spat on the ground and said disgustingly:
"A high-sounding virtue, talking about the world, is also worthy!?"
"It's still Yongtang, I think, it should be changed to Yonglutang, and the hall is full of mediocre people, hahaha!"
At the same time, the Yamen of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division came to meet a team of fans, and the messenger guarding the door stepped forward to block: "The soldiers and horses are heavy, and idlers are not allowed to enter!" ”
Soon, a stall leader walked out of Fanzizhong, held up the waist card engraved with the four big characters of "East Investigation Factory" in his hand, and said coldly:
"Dongchang case, get out!"
The head of the stall jumped into the Terracotta Division with a waist card, and shouted: "After investigation, the Terracotta Division of the Five Cities patrolled the city and the imperial history car, colluded with the rebel Feng Sanyuan, demagoguery, and caused chaos among the people!" “
Seeing this batch of fans breaking in, the mouths of the servants moved, and there was nothing they could do, who made the family belong to the East Factory!
"Who gave you the right to arrest people at will!?" At this moment, an officer of the Soldiers and Horses Division stood up, looking like a newcomer.
"There are really newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers!" The stall took two steps forward and sneered a few times: "Dongchang handles the case, without going through the three law divisions!" Crown Concession, do you have an opinion? ”
"Che Yutai is upright, sit up straight, why are you arresting people!" The official was still not convinced, and the other officials couldn't pull it.
The head of the stall held the waist card in front of his eyes, and said loudly: "Just with this, Dongji Factory, is it enough?" ”
"Dare to say one more thing, Lao Tzu will make you a party!"
Seeing that the official's eyes were wide, he was still discouraged and didn't dare to say anything more, so he waved his hand and shouted: "Take it away!" ”
At the same time, the same scene was also staged in the Yamen of Shuntian Mansion, and a group of fans directly broke into the Yamen and arrested He Guangshou, the prefect of Shuntian, in full view of everyone.
Jin Yiwei only arrested one Fang Xian last time, but Dongchang waited for two months, and if he didn't move, it was a big case that shocked the entire government and the opposition.
During the whole process, Wei Zhongxian did not come out of the Yamen of the East Factory.
When Dongchang was arresting people, Yang Lian and others rushed to the palace to ask to see Zhu Youxiao, but they got the news that the Emperor of the Apocalypse had gone to Nanhaizi to hunt again!
