Although the emperor has not yet come, the ministers have already stood in the main hall.

The atmosphere in the whole hall was a little weird.

Since the news of the prince's actions in the northwest has returned to the capital, the atmosphere in the capital has been a little weird, and this is even more so today.

The problem is very serious, and the precedent set by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very bad, although there are still consecutive seats, but the court has basically rarely done such a thing as copying the house over the years. The last time was when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was in Yangzhou.

Although the courtiers all knew about the joint sitting, the courtiers' joint sitting was the joint sitting family of the official, not the joint sitting of the family members.

You know, although they are all sitting together, but this is not the same thing.

If the family members sit down to themselves, then don't everyone want to put themselves in danger? If this becomes a common practice, won't your own people be cleaned up at any time?

How can this be done? Precarious!

In fact, what Zhu Houzhao wants is this precariousness, and what he wants is to clean you up at any time, because the Ming problem is the problem of the gentry.

What is the problem of the gentry? To put it bluntly, it is a matter of officials. The local oppression of the good, the annexation of land, and the disregard of human life.

Why do they dare to do this? Isn't it because you're an official? You are an official outside, you don't accept bribes, and you show loyalty and patriotism. But what about in your house? What are you doing in your power?

The most typical example is Zhang Weixian, a scholar of the first assistant university of the cabinet in the Wanli period, and Xu Jie, the first assistant of the cabinet.

What Zhu Houzhao wanted was to cut off the gentry's behavior of relying on officials in their own families to run rampant in the local area, and such behavior was the crux of the local problems in the Ming Dynasty.

The DPRK is an official, honest and self-controlled, and the local family members are tyrannical, which has become the norm in the Ming Dynasty. Even if such an official has some deeds, he is digging the foundation of the Ming Dynasty.

In the past, they were all sitting together from above and down, and what Zhu Houzhao wanted to open was a precedent for sitting down from below, and there were officials in Daming who were implicated because of accidents at home, but this was not enough.

Zhu Houzhao wants to tear this hole open, and even enact legislation in the future. For example, those whose family members hide land and refuse to pay taxes, those whose family members accept cash, and those whose family members accept bribes must all be punished, and they are directly punished on the officials, rather than explaining the past with a sentence that the royal family is not strict. It's not the reason why I'm an official outside, loyal to the country, and have no intention of controlling my family.

Anyone who fails to report to the magistrate will be severely punished. What Zhu Houzhao wants is to tear open this big net, and the ultimate goal is to customize a set of laws restricting officials.

If you want to be an official, then you should be an official; If you don't want to be an official, go home as soon as possible to do business and farm. You are an official, and your family is breaking the law, and such behavior must be severely punished.

Although it may not be possible to contain it all, it must be curbed and set rules!

Of course, Zhu Houzhao's thoughts were not known to Chaozhong. But these people are all old officials, and they are all experienced in officialdom.

Once this opening is opened, it is clear what it means for them. That's going to die!

When Zhu Youzhu walked into the main hall, he already felt that the atmosphere in the main hall was wrong.

After paying homage, Zhu Youzhu waited for the courtiers to speak.

"If there is something to do, it will be played early, and there will be nothing to retreat." He Neng stood on one side and shouted this, then stepped aside, lowered his head, and lowered his hands. He felt like he had to keep a low profile today.

"The minister has his own music." The first one to stand up was to give Yang Zhongdao in the matter.

This is a man in his thirties, a little thin, and his expression was very serious when he stood up: "The minister impeached His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

As soon as these words came out, the court was in an uproar.

The people in the main hall didn't expect it, and even looked sideways.

Zhu Youzhu didn't expect it, and then his face darkened.

Zhu Youzhu originally thought that these people would impeach others, such as Zhang He, the great commander of the Black Dragon Guard, or He Jian, the new governor of the three sides.

Unexpectedly, Yang Chongdao came up and came directly to his son. Zhu Youzhu hated a lot in his heart.

Zhu Youzhu thought of a lot of ways to protect his son, and all the methods were annihilated at once.

"Oh, impeachment of the crown prince? Let's hear it. Zhu Youzhu made a very interested look and said.

In fact, there are many things to impeach the prince, not only in the Ming Dynasty, but also in all dynasties, but most of them are brushing their sense of existence, like this attack on the prince, you have to be cautious.

If it is ordinary, talk about the prince's extravagance, talk about the prince's rudeness, although it is also very serious, but it is not unacceptable, and the emperor can still leave a reputation for accepting advice.

But this time it was the prince who was doing things, and your attack meant that you did not agree with the prince's behavior; It means that you do not agree with the prince's statecraft.

This is not the same as admonishing the emperor, because it is impeachment. If the crown prince's position is unstable, or if the emperor intends to abolish the crown prince, that's it. However, there is obviously no abolition of the crown prince in this dynasty.

The emperor is just a queen, the emperor and the empress are such a son, who will the crown prince be abolished and passed on? Passing it on to your own brother? Has this ever been done in history? Who will pass on the throne to someone else unless he dies himself?

Yang Chongdao's face did not change at all, he looked like he was at home, took a step forward, and said loudly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in the northwest to build a prison, and he is prone to raiding homes and destroying people, this is not the way of mercy. ”

Zhu Youzhu listened to Yang Chongdao's words quietly, basically the prince was not benevolent, and almost said that the prince was tyrannical, and Zhu Youzhang's face turned black when he heard it.

When Yang Chongdao finished speaking, the needles in the hall could be heard.

Even the people who were going to talk about it were not ready to speak at this time. You say so ruthless, how can we take it?

I can't take it! So no one spoke, and everyone was waiting for Zhu Youzhu to speak.

Everyone knows that His Majesty is very fond of this only son. Today's Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also angry, whether it is the Black Dragon Army or the open source of finance in recent years, it is all a sound of doing it. Are you doing this at this time?

"That's what you think too?" Zhu Youzhu asked in a flat tone. But a fool can hear that His Majesty is not satisfied.

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to say." At this time, a person stood up and said loudly.

Everyone was stunned, who still dared to speak at this time?

But when they saw this person, everyone's expressions were like eating flies.

Because this person is none other than the younger brother of the current queen, the younger brother of Zhang Heling, the marquis of Shouning, and the uncle of the prince, Jianchang hou Zhang Yanling.

Who did not know that the two brothers of Shouning Hou Zhang Heling and Jianchang Hou Zhang Yanling were the most loyal dogs of His Royal Highness the Prince, and this time His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went to the northwest with Zhang Heling, the Hou of Shouning.
