Lu Xiangsheng gave an order, and 60,000 officers and troops attacked the city in the dark night.

Attacking the city at night is a taboo for soldiers, but Lu Xiangsheng did just that.

Tongguan City was suddenly shocked, extremely surprised, resisting while reporting upwards.

At this time, they found out that the top, Gao Yigong, Li Guo and others were not there!

They ran away first!

There was a great chaos in Tongguan, and it was quickly defeated.

Lu Xiangsheng's army feinted to attack mostly, and when he saw the opportunity, it became a real attack, and before dawn, Lu Xiangsheng boarded Tongguan City!

This move greatly boosted the morale of the officers and troops, and it was even more morale-boosting than the recovery of the capital.

Tongguan is in hand, and the northwest is in sight!

Even though heavy rain blocked the road, the officers and troops were still quickly recovering the lost ground, compressing Li Zicheng's space for maneuver.

As soon as Lu Xiangsheng entered Tongguan, he began to redeploy people from all walks of life to arrange Li Zicheng and other bandits.

Before Lu Xiangsheng's official document arrived in the capital, the capital was already bustling.

First of all, there is a rumor about the 'rebellion case', which involves the sentencing of the ministers, the six scholars, and the squire.

These are the 'heroes' of Li Zicheng's entry into Beijing, those who surrendered in advance, those who opened the city gates, and those who knelt down to greet them after opening the door to be the heroes of the Great Shun Dynasty, and there were hundreds of people, large and small.

As soon as this news came out, the capital was boiling, not to mention those ministers, scholars, and waiters, and there were many squires, and the relationship network was complicated.

In the imperial court, there are still many people who want to or have written a table for Li Zicheng, and even have entered the Dashun Dynasty and are hidden, most of these people's 'middlemen' are Zhang Jinyan, the first hero of the Dashun Dynasty.

Zhang Jinyan moved, where can these people be stable.

As a result, the impeachment of the heads of the three legal departments, Ma Shiying, Kou Huaiyi, and Li Hengbing's recitals poured into the General Political Envoy Department and entered the cabinet.

Zhang Sizhi, Chen Yan and others panicked like headless flies, desperately breaking into the cabinet.

Zhou Yanru has too many headaches now, and Sun Chuanting and others have sent more and more things, which makes him annoyed, he doesn't want to agree to any of these things, but he can't refuse directly.

The 'Prime Minister's Compound' outside the Daming Gate has begun to work on it, and the news of the 'Law Amendment' is slowly leaking out.

Zhou Yanru was looking at the official document sent by Sun Chuanting about the revision suggestions and direction of the 'patriarchal law', looking at the content inside, he was half happy and half worried, and he couldn't make up his mind.

Fan Wenjing came in from outside and said in a low voice: "Yuan Fu, Zhang Shangshu, Chen Shangshu and others are here." ”

Zhou Yanru knew the movement outside, and he had also read the impeachment notes, and he also knew about Zhang Sizhi's 'Surrender Table', so he looked even more bored, and said, "Tell them, don't worry, I'm still here." ”

Fan Wenjing was stunned and said, "Yuanfu, don't you see?" ”

Zhou Yanru didn't raise his head, and said: "Those are the people of the impeached Three Law Divisions, and they haven't arrived at them yet, tell them, give me a little stability, and don't do anything else." ”

Fan Wenjing looked at Zhou Yanru, suddenly realized, and said, "Yes."

Zhang Sizhi, Chen Yan and the others were not far outside, the two of them were nervous and staring nervously, seeing Fan Wenjing coming out, they hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What did Yuanfu say?" ”

Fan Wenjing glanced around, as if he saw a lot of eyes, and said in a low voice: "Yuan Fu said that it was the Three Law Divisions who were impeached, not you, don't worry." ”

Chen Yan wanted to resign and hide from the whirlpool of the imperial court, but things happened one after another, making it difficult for him to get out, and seeing that a trouble came again, he couldn't help but say anxiously: "Although the impeachment is for the three law divisions, it is for those people, once those people are really convicted, they will have no scruples, and death will drag us out!" ”

These are Zhou Yanru's closest people, and they know everything about the 'Surrender Form', so there is no need to hide it. At the same time, Zhang Jinyan and others were really sentenced not to forgive the 'rebellious crime', so they lost the conditions for concealing it for Zhang Sizhi and others.

Fan Wenjing saw that Chen Yan couldn't be calm as usual, so he had to say: "Don't worry, two adults, this matter is not a matter of speech, as long as the two adults above don't speak, no one can defeat you." ”

Chen Yan and Zhang Sizhi were a little stunned and didn't know how to react.

The current Ming Dynasty is indeed the world of 'two weeks', and all the power is in their hands, but 'people are terrible', once the officials move, even 'two weeks' have to scruples, right?

Fan Wenjing looked at the expressions of the two, sighed lightly in his heart, and had no choice but to say: "The most important thing in the imperial court is the three law divisions, and they will never be allowed to have an accident, as long as they are fine, we will be fine." ”

Zhang Sizhi suddenly came to his senses and said: "Yes, yes, Zheng Xibo will definitely not let his people have an accident, with him in front, we will be safe." ”

Chen Yan was also relieved, but he was still a little unwilling. Even if Zhou Zheng is in the way, they will be fine, but he still wants to resign as soon as possible and leave Beijing.

Zhang Sizhi, Chen Yan and others were in a panic, Sun Chuanting, Gao Hongtu and others were outside the Daming Gate, packing up their things while discussing these impeachments.

The planning of the Daming Gate has been completed and the construction is underway, and the yamen are being evacuated one after another, looking for temporary sites.

Sun Chuanting and Gao Hongtu stood not far away, watching the workers come and go, chatting casually.

Gao Hongtu looked at these craftsmen and said, "Yesterday I drank in the adult's mansion and talked about a lot of things. It's these craftsmen, the adults also said, I have nearly a million craftsmen, they can't do anything else, a lifetime, generations are craftsmen, the imprisonment is too strict, they should be released, give them freedom and a better future......"

Sun Chuanting has followed Zhou Zheng for many years and said: "It's true, the household department can do more, and the rules such as restrictions, discrimination, and imprisonment must also be changed." ”

Gao Hongtu clasped his hands, looked at the rainy weather, and said: "My lord is indeed far-sighted, the source of these things is on the ancestral system, if the ancestral law is not cultivated, we will be tied, if the ancestral law is changed, we can promote the implementation of the ......"

Sun Chuanting thought about the matter of 'cultivating the Fa', glanced at the other places, and said in a low voice: "I already have some ideas about Da Ming Law, later, let's get together, list a general outline, and then let the people below discuss, polish, and improve." ”

Gao Hongtu leaned over and said in the same low voice: "Yesterday, the adults were a little drunk and said a lot of heartfelt things. We have to go a little faster, or we won't be able to do it. ”

Sun Chuanting thought about this sentence of 'too late', and was just about to speak, Ma Shiying hurriedly came, wiped the hot sweat on his head, and said: "The trouble is coming, there are more and more people who impeach us, not only saying that we abuse our power and take the opportunity to eradicate dissidents, but also some people say that we violate the ancestral system and are too ruthless to the clan and nobles." ”

Gao Hongtu has been very sensitive to these recently, and immediately said, "They want to stop us from cultivating the Fa!" ”

Ma Shiying nodded and said in a deep voice: "There should be this purpose, but it doesn't stop there." There are too many people imprisoned in the three divisions, and they are all high-ranking and powerful, and the relationship network of any one is huge and unfathomable, not to mention so many. ”

Gao Hongtu's expression was obscure, and he said in a solemn tone: "So many people and so many things are mixed together, it's really a thousand things." ”

Sun Chuanting did not move, and said: "Let him be a big wave, we will move forward steadfastly, and don't be affected by these things." They impeach theirs, and we do ours. If it really stands in our way, the three law divisions don't have to be polite. ”

Ma Shiying looked at Sun Chuanting, the corners of his face moved, and said, "Can you shoot at them?" ”

Sun Chuanting smiled at the corner of his mouth and said, "Don't worry, the fire is not burning enough, I guess the adults are also waiting." ”

Gao Hongtu looked at Sun Chuanting's expression, and suddenly said, "Then let's let it burn a little hot!" When I go back later, I will let people release the rumors, and I will say that the household department will cancel the craftsman registration, not only the craftsman registration, salt, tea, border military households, but also cheap registration, business registration, etc., all of which must be canceled! ”

This is the most important ruling order in feudal society, if it is abolished and the boundaries are lost, the most unhappy is the top - 'shi', that is, the scholar class.

Ma Shiying listened, and said with a somewhat vicious expression: "Then I'm not welcome, I'll let people go to the book and ask the court to cancel the six subjects!" ”

Sun Chuanting, Gao Hongtu immediately looked at him, his expression was almost the same - shocked.

The six branches are the ancestral system, and they are the most important means to govern the six departments, and at the same time, the six branches are also the 'science and road', the most important part of the speech officials, the 'lowly and powerful', and they can even refute the holy decree!

If someone proposes to revoke the six branches, the government and the opposition will definitely fry the pot!
