Chapter 315: Heavenly Grace
The court suddenly quieted down, although the emperor was gone and went down to the court, but where was the prince still kneeling, where did they dare to move, so they had to follow and kneel.
Zhu Biao kept his kneeling posture and did not look back and ordered directly: "It's time to go down to the court, all the secretaries are busy, there are so many people missing from the six ministries, and the province must fill in time, and the government affairs of the country and the dynasty must not be slack, so I can only ask Wang Xiang and Hu Xiang to work harder." β
Wang Guangyang immediately replied: "This is the duty of the ministers, the matter of eating the king and being loyal to the king, how can there be hard work, please rest assured that the minister and Hu Xiang discussed it last night, and will never delay government affairs." β
Hu Weiyong persuaded and said: "If Your Highness is not at ease, you might as well go and see it in person, you also have a backbone in the ministers, as for the matter of interceding for those children, the saint is just a moment of anger, and the ministers will wait together for a while to give the Shangyin a request, you can't kneel down." β
The officials who had already taken off the black veil kowtowed to Zhu Biao's back with red eyes: "The guilty ministers will not be able to meet His Highness again without face, and the grace of heaven will not dare to forget, if there is a future life to serve the king, they will never dare to be corrupt again!" β
Zhu Biao sighed and said lightly: "Why is this beautiful woman a thief? This money is nothing but something outside the body, life does not bring death, what can you do if you have a mountain of gold in today's situation, the rest of the Qing family should also take a look, don't follow the back of your colleagues. β
There was a sobbing sound in the Fengtian Palace, even Han Qi couldn't help but sigh in the imperial history, maybe they had a conflict, but after all, they had been ministers in the same hall for many years.
Zhu Biao is really sorry for them, there are very few mediocre talents in the six yamen, after all, they are the yamen who manage most of the things in the world, and those who can kneel in the Fengtian Hall are the elites of the six yamen, and now they are cut off, it is false to say that they are not distressed, these people can not be cultivated overnight.
However, in order to reverse the century-old trend of corruption, these people categorically cannot stay, and Zhu Biao has never thought of forgiving them, it is not easy to reverse the officialdom atmosphere, and it is inevitable to hurt the muscles and bones.
Hu Weiyong and others also wanted to persuade Zhu Biao not to kneel, after all, this is not the emperor's punishment for kneeling, Zhu Biao said: "Even if it is to intercede for a child, it also contradicts the monarch's father, how can this palace, as a prince, ignore the principle of filial piety, otherwise how the world will look at it, you don't have to persuade again." β
"Yan Qing's family take them down, what the palace promised you will definitely be done, and those children will be properly settled, so you can explain what you have, and the palace will not send it when you leave, and you won't do it again in the next life."
They were definitely going to be sentenced to death, Zhu Biao didn't bother to watch the bloody scene, Yan Donglai got up and promised, which criminals were taken away after kowtowing again, Hu Weiyong and Wang Guangyang also led people to stand up and salute Zhu Biao's back.
Wang Guangyang said: "The ministers will go to the office, but there is still a word to say, now His Royal Highness punishes himself for loyalty and filial piety, this is where filial piety lies, and the ministers should not persuade more, but His Royal Highness is my Ming country, and there must be no half of the loss, and I hope that His Royal Highness will take his body first." β
Hu Weiyong sincerely persuaded: "What Wang Xiang said is extremely true, His Royal Highness is the foundation of the country's dependence on the ministers, although the Holy One was dissatisfied just now, it was only a momentary anger, the Holy and His Royal Highness have a deep father-son relationship, and His Royal Highness can feel good when he kneels in the Holy Heart here?" β
The rest of the people also wanted to persuade, especially Xungui's side, but in the end, when they opened their mouths, they found that they couldn't hold back any good words, so they had to kneel with their heads bored, muttering in their hearts, what good words about the dog day let you turtle grandsons say it, he is his mother!
Han Qi persuaded in the imperial history: "Your Royal Highness's filial piety and loyalty should be an example for the world, but you must cherish your body, and the country cannot be damaged at all." β
Zhu Biao nodded and said: "The palace understands what the secretary said, but how can the monarch's father be contemptuous for the sky, you all go and get busy first, state affairs are important, not to mention that the palace understands the truth of serving in a small atmosphere and going in a big atmosphere, and it will not hurt the body." β
Seeing that Zhu Biao insisted that everyone would not say more, they all saluted and retreated, and the nobles were still stunned there, Zhu Biao naturally felt it, and said helplessly: "You all go down, Xu Shuai also has a lot of official duties, and the north side still needs to take care of it more." β
Xu Da didn't bother anymore, and when he stood up and said yes, he led a few people out, as long as he had an attitude, he also knew that the prince wanted him to do practical things more than waste time here.
The rest of the people didn't wait for Zhu Biao to persuade them and said directly: "Hehe, we don't have any official business, so it's better to accompany His Highness here than to go out to drink flower wine." β
Zhu Biao didn't bother to tell them, he simply knelt and closed his eyes to recuperate, he dealt with the recital late at night last night, and he got up early this morning to go to court, naturally he didn't have enough rest, and when it came to this, he had to admire his father, who obviously slept together, how did he recover so quickly.
After kneeling for half an hour, Zhu Biao's knees hurt a little, I have to say that the floor is really hard, even if he has a knee pad made by Liu Jin himself on his knees, it is very uncomfortable, not to mention the nobles below, they are not prepared, and because they were only hit by the board yesterday, their buttocks hurt very much.
Nanxiong Hou Zhao Yong twisted left and right and said to Guo Xing, the Marquis of Gongchang on the side, "Why are you still here, what do you have to do with the general?" β
Yan'an Hou Tang Shengzong also nodded and said: "That's it, you should have left with Xu Shuai a long time ago, and His Royal Highness didn't look back, you didn't work in vain, okay, you can hurry up and climb out now, and a few brothers will help you watch." β
The other nobles on the side echoed one after another, Guo Xing gritted his teeth, if he was not afraid of any of them, but he had no choice but to accompany the smiling face of so many people: "Our brothers are all killed together, even if I was unlucky and didn't go to the Northern Expedition with His Highness, don't reject me so much, we are all old brothers, I will invite everyone to drink when we disperse in a while!" β
Now the people who are still staying in the main hall to accompany and kneel are basically the nobles of Chang Yuchun and Li Wenzhong's line, many of whom have been with Zhu Biao on the Northern Expedition, and they naturally became a group after returning to Beijing, and they are princelings, and Zhu Yuanzhang also deliberately gave them the vacant position of a subordinate official of the East Palace.
And Guo Xing was originally Tang He's person, but Tang He fell, even if he is about to rise again, but everyone knows that he can't return to the level of a giant in the army, so naturally he is not qualified to let a Hou Ye be attached.
Zhao Yong actually didn't dislike Guo Xing, and said bluntly: "Didn't you get close to Hu Weiyong recently, why do you want to lean here again, Li Xiang has retreated, Hu Weiyong is about to get up, in the end it is Li Xiang's protΓ©gΓ©, Wang Guangyang's guy can't suppress him." β
