Chapter 46: Killing the Ruler of Words
Zhu Houzhao also seemed to have a premonition that things might change at this time, thinking that even if the military power was already in his hands, it might not be enough, and he had to use the soldiers, so as not to deter the small people in the Forbidden City.
So, Zhu Houzhao sent Liu Jin and Zhang Yong again: "I wrote two secret decrees, and the two of you immediately went to the regimental camp and forbidden soldiers with my will and defense, except for the officers and soldiers who stayed at the city gate, all the officers and soldiers immediately brought them into the palace with the British Duke Zhang Mao, the Taiping Marquis Zhang Jie, and the military department Shangshu Xu Jin!" Listen to me! If you don't comply, you two can cut it first! ”
"Slave obeys!"
Liu Jin and Zhang Yong hurriedly took the yellow silk stamped secret decree and customs defense temporarily written by Zhu Houzhao.
The so-called secret decree is just a temporary way of issuing orders made by Zhu Houzhao, which the courtiers may not recognize, but it will naturally be effective for officers and soldiers.
After all, it's still about defense.
Moreover, Zhu Houzhao also believes that most of the officers and soldiers who were lectured by themselves on the school field not long ago should now know that their emperor, His Majesty, is their real commander!
Not long after Liu Jin and the others left, Zhu Houzhao heard a shouting and cheering from outside the palace, saying, "Please move your majesty to the Qianqing Palace and kill Liu Jin and other eunuchs!" ”
Zhu Houzhao immediately thought about it, thinking to himself when these civil officials appeared, and they hadn't started killing yet, so they were vigilant?
Zhu Houzhao secretly said that it seems that the ministers really colluded with the civil officials, and the death of Emperor Hongzhi may really be related to these high-ranking eunuchs and civil officials, and he did not directly take their lives to kill them, but then they were strictly interrogated, but perhaps because of this, they felt that they still had a chance to turn the tables.
At this time, Gao Feng, Ma Yongcheng, and Wei Bin also came over: "Emperor, it doesn't seem good outside!" ”
"I know that the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, so I don't believe that these literati can make a big wave, and now I don't have to be afraid of them anymore! Gao Feng open the door! ”
When Zhu Houzhao was speaking, Guo Rong's voice sounded outside:
"Ladies and gentlemen, Your Majesty said that no one should disturb Your Majesty without Your Majesty's summons! Violators will be killed! ”
"You are just a martial artist, what qualifications do you have to stop the old man, get out of the way of the old man, and the old man will advise Your Majesty!"
At this time, the voice of Liu Jian, the first assistant of the cabinet, came from outside.
Immediately afterwards, a group of people shouted: "Yes, I will wait to admonish Your Majesty!" ”
Gao Feng was so frightened that he didn't dare to open the door, and glanced back at Zhu Houzhao: "Emperor, do you really want to open the door?" ”
"Useless stuff! I'll do it myself! ”
Zhu Houzhao hurriedly opened the door as he spoke, and at that time, the whole room was bright, and a group of civil officials appeared in front of Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao asked with a calm face: "What do you want to do, do you want to rebel?" ”
"Your Majesty, old minister", Liu Jian, the first assistant of the cabinet, stood up first, and was directly about to start speaking.
Zhu Houzhao immediately slapped him, slapped Liu Jian, the first assistant of the cabinet, on a cruel old face, and hit this Liu Jian's old flesh suddenly flew sideways:
"Bastard thing! You are my courtier, and when you see that I don't give a big salute, you will start Luo Hao first, so do you take me as a monarch in your eyes?! ”
The originally noisy scene became quiet because of Zhu Houzhao's angry shouting and the heavy slap under the slap.
Everyone's eyes fell to the ground in shock.
How is this possible!
It's incredible!
This was completely unexpected!
Your Majesty actually slapped Lord Shoufu on the spot!
The second assistant Li Dongyang looked up at Zhu Houzhao with some confusion, he suddenly felt that the fifteen-year-old young emperor in front of him was a little unfamiliar, especially when he saw Zhu Houzhao's serious and murderous eyes, he couldn't help but feel palpitations.
Sanfu Xie Qian also looked shocked, he didn't expect that His Majesty the Emperor would suddenly slap Shoufu Lord Liu Jian in the face, even the first emperor didn't dare to say a word to Shoufu Liu Jian loudly, and now His Majesty actually did it directly!
Shoufu Liu Jian only felt that his cheeks were painful like pinpricks, as if the osprey bones were staggered, and his mouth was leaking cold air, at this moment he was very angry and very stunned, he didn't expect His Majesty the Emperor to suddenly slap him, the reason was that he didn't bow first and spoke directly.
It's been so many years, and no one has scolded and scolded himself like this, after all, although he is not the prime minister, he is actually the prime minister, and he has been in charge of the cabinet for more than 20 years, even the first emperor will give himself three points of thin face.
Shoufu Liu Jian felt humiliated, and he was even like Li Dongyang, he felt that Zhu Houzhao was very strange, and he almost couldn't hold back his anger to drink Zhu Houzhao.
However, the courtesy of the monarch and the minister is the righteousness of etiquette and religion, and Liu Jian, the first assistant of the cabinet, cannot refute Zhu Houzhao's wrong fight at this moment, even if he is angry.
But Liu Jian, the first assistant of the cabinet, didn't want to make a big salute at this time, he knew that if he gave in at this time, he would no longer be able to control Emperor Zhu Houzhao.
In order not to lose in momentum, Liu Jian, the first assistant to the cabinet, remained silent.
At this time, Sanfu Xie Qianchao Like gave Sun Meiling a look.
Li Kedu told Sun Meiling that this was the time to stand up for an official like himself, and it was also the time to invite his own name, and it was also the best time for Liu Jian, the first assistant of the cabinet, to remember himself.
Therefore, Sun Meiling stood up in the middle of the matter:
"Like is to see Your Majesty in the matter, the first assistant is the world's Yuanfu, the elder of the four dynasties, and the minister of the first emperor Tuogu, has always been loyal to the country, virtuous in Confucianism, meritorious in Sheji, and has a teacher's grace in His Majesty, now it is not a court sacrifice ceremony, the first auxiliary is a teacher's friendship and His Majesty's speech, and it is not an exaggeration to see the great gift! Please also ask Your Majesty to be lenient and benevolent, Fang is the mind of Mingjun! ”
"Liu Jian, the first assistant of the cabinet, did not bow when he saw his father, which is really a rude act, and you, as a speech official, did not impeach him, but argued for him, and your heart is even more vicious! Guo Rong, behead such disloyal ministers! I see who dares not to respect me! ”
Zhu Houzhao shouted, Guo Rong had already pulled out a big knife here: "The last general will obey the order!" ”
Immediately, as soon as the blade came out, it was like a meteor crossing, and the blade directly wiped the neck of Sun Meiling in the matter, and the blood suddenly spilled out, and Sun Meiling's head in the matter also fell to the ground, and his eyes still showed an incredible look, he didn't expect that he was just using this to show off, but it turned out to be His Majesty's butcher's knife.
The civil officials present were all taken aback, and a few of them wanted to say a few more words, but when they saw Guo Rong's bloody knife, they all involuntarily took half a step back.
Zhu Houzhao glanced at Guo Rong at this time, gave a positive look, and thought that this guy is really a manufacturable material, he is steady and ruthless, and he will not hesitate to ask him to cut whom!
At the same time, Zhu Houzhao asked Liu Jian, the first assistant of the cabinet, and other civil officials in a cold voice: "Why, don't you want to be a courtier of the Ming Dynasty, do you want to be a pen holder and pestle here?" ”
After Zhu Houzhao asked, he shouted directly: "Guo Rong! ”
Thump!
Before Zhu Houzhao could speak, Liu Jianxian, the first assistant of the cabinet, prostrated down directly: "Weichen see Your Majesty!" ”
Other civil officials also weakened their knees one after another, and they fell to the ground: "Weichen see Your Majesty!" ”
Liu Jian, the first assistant of the cabinet, has to make a big salute now, he is still really afraid that Zhu Houzhao is really going to let the martial artist who just killed one of them give him a knife.
The civil officials present didn't expect His Majesty to suddenly be so fierce, and he saw blood directly before he could speak!
