As soon as the drums sounded at the noon gate, hundreds of civil and military officials lined up left and right.

At noon, the drums sounded at the second gate, and the civil and military officials stood solemnly.

At noon, the three-way drum sounded, the left and right doors were opened, and the Jinyi Military Academy entered the palace to set up a guard of honor.

There is not only one gate at this noon gate, but there are five gates under the city gate of the noon gate.

The gate in the middle is called the Imperial Road, and only the emperor can enter and exit through this gate.

On both sides of the royal road are the left and right gates, for the Jinyi guards on duty to enter and exit the school.

The left and right doors in the corners on both sides of the gate are for civil and military officials to enter and exit.

At this time, the civil and military officials were already lining up in a long line in front of the left and right doors, the civil officials were on the left, the military attache was on the right, there was no noise, and there was silence outside the noon gate.

Soon, when the hour came, the bell rang on the city gate tower of the noon gate, and the civil and military officials entered the palace from the left and right gates in turn, crossed the Jinshui Bridge, passed through the Taihe Gate, and came to the square in front of the Taihe Palace.

At this time, it is necessary to stand in a hierarchy, the three steps in front of the Taihe Palace, Zhou Yanru, Wen Tiren and other cabinet scholars directly went to the first level, Bi Ziyan, Cao Yubian and other six Shangshu, the chief officials of the major yamen directly climbed the second level of the steps, and Zhang Bin directly climbed the third level of the steps under the promotion of Huang Chenghao.

This third level is very wide, and all the officials of the third rank stand at this level, and the three rank and lower can only be divided into the left and right of the square.

Zhang Bin was very embarrassed to find that he was standing in the first place of the third-level civil official, which was more fucked, the first time he stood in such a conspicuous position in the court, he just wanted to hide behind and peek.

Whether he wants it or not, he also stood still, and soon a burst of music played, Chongzhen came to the gate of the Taihe Hall surrounded by a group of eunuchs, sat on the dragon chair under the canopy, and a whip sounded Baiguan knelt down, kowtowed to the mountain and shouted long live, Zhang Bin knelt down, kowtowed three heads, exhaled with the rhythm mountain, and then stood up again.

Immediately afterwards, a Honglu Temple official walked to the middle of the steps and sang: "There is something to play the chapter, and there is nothing to retreat." ”

Of course, it is impossible to retreat from the court, this is just the beginning, what he said is just a process, as soon as he retreated into the train, immediately a minister came out of their respective trains, walked to the middle, knelt on the ground, held the concerto, and played loudly.

Zhang Bin noticed that the report was not in the usual tone, but directly read the content of the chapter, which was crepe and awkward to listen to.

At this time, Chongzhen will give a certain answer according to the content of the report, and sometimes ask the relevant officials about the specific situation.

After playing right for nearly an hour, Zhang Bin felt that his legs were a little stiff, and the playing session was finally over.

At this time, the general Honglu Temple ceremonial officials will walk to the middle of the steps again and sing: "There is something to play the chapter, and there is nothing to retreat." ”

The meaning of this sentence is not to understand the former sentence, but to understand the latter sentence, and to retreat from the dynasty without anything.

However, after today's performance, the official of Honglu Temple did not immediately stand up and sing, but Chongzhen coughed and said majestically: "I think everyone has heard about Min Hongxue and Min Mengde, these two people turned out to be the remnants of the eunuch party, I really didn't expect it, they have deceived me for three years, it's very good." I have already sent them to prison, and there is no need for the three law divisions to interrogate, so today we will discuss what to do with these two people. ”

Chongzhen's meaning, I'm all in prison, fry and cook, you can watch it.

According to his meaning, at least it is cut, and everyone will discuss whether to cut it with a thousand knives or destroy the nine clans!

Usually at this time, the ministers will be frightened, and there will always be some people who come out to ask the emperor for extrajudicial mercy and lightly get it.

However, this time, most of the ministers showed a natural expression, and few of them planned to intercede, because judging from the rumors, these two guys are simply not human, and a thousand knives are light, and they deserve to exterminate the nine clans!

Of course, at this time, the people below can't speak yet, and they must first come out to start with the cabinet scholars, and then the civil and military officials below can express their opinions.

Outside the entire Taihe Palace, there was silence, and Zhou Yanru, the head of the cabinet, looked at his nose and nose, and stood there like a bodhisattva, without saying a word.

He was actually gloating in his heart: "It's my business, anyway, it's Wen Tiren's dog, whether it's a thousand cuts, or the destruction of the Nine Clans, let Wen Tiren worry about it." ”

In fact, most of the civil and military personnel of the Manchu Dynasty knew that these two guys were Wen Tiren's dogs, but no one dared to attack Wen Tiren, because Wen Tiren was too poisonous, and none of the people who attacked him could stand here so far.

At this time, the courtiers basically have one mind, we can not attack you Wen Tiren, but only you Wen Tiren.

Everyone is not stupid, they will hang up a batch of attacks at a time, and they don't have to look for death, so at this time, the court has reached a tacit understanding, as long as Wen Tiren doesn't bite people, no one will bite him.

Min Hongxue and Min Mengde are different, these two are not things, they are worse than Wen Tiren, this kind of scourge must not stay.

Now it depends on what Wen Tiren says, if he agrees to pull these two people out and cut them down, then forget it, everyone will be silent, if he still wants to say good things to these two people, so that the emperor can be lightly dismissed, then, those jealous and hateful two stunned people in the court will definitely jump out and fight him!

Wen Tiren also knew that at this time, he had to stand up and say good things for Min Hongxue and Min Mengde, otherwise, no one would mess with him in the future.

Of course, today's event, he has already planned, Chongzhen's mind he has touched very thoroughly, he also knows that Chongzhen can't wait to deal with Min Hongxue and Min Mengde today, both of them are six books, although Chongzhen is a little arbitrary, but he is not completely brainless.

At this level, he will never be caught and killed, because the involvement is too great, of course, it is precisely because he thinks he is smart that he can use it, or play with it.

Wen Tiren slowly walked out of the cabinet train, knelt in front of Chongzhen, coughed lightly, and then said loudly: "Your Majesty, Weichen heard about this, because Min Hongxue, Min Mengde and Weichen are both from Wucheng, Zhejiang, Weichen has to stand up and say two fair words to them, otherwise, Weichen will not be able to face Jiangdong's father when he goes back." ”

What he meant, I was forced to be helpless, if I didn't say anything, I would be scolded by the villagers when I went back.

Chongzhen was instantly led by him to the rhythm, this is indeed reasonable, the villagers, people are in trouble, you don't say a word, it's really a bit unreasonable.

Chongzhen nodded understandingly: "Well, you say." ”

Wen Tiren then said aloud: "Wechen is not familiar with Min Hongxue and Min Meng, and I don't know much about their crimes, so it's not good to comment on them, Wechen can only speculate according to common sense." First of all, as far as Weichen knows, after Min Hongxue and Min Mengde are loyal and good, the Min family is a famous scholarly family in Wucheng, and its ancestor Min Qi is a famous minister of Hongzhi, the official to the prince Taibao, Zuodu Yushi, upright, loyal and diligent. His great-grandfather Min Rulin was a famous minister of Jiajing, an official to the crown prince Taibao, and a scholar of the Southern Capital Rite Department, who was quite famous and loyal and diligent. Wei Chen didn't understand, how could he be a traitor who was attached to the eunuch after such loyalty? Then, why were the two important ministers of the court convicted in less than a day, could it be that they have done their best for the Ming Dynasty for more than 30 years, and they are not worthy of a word from others? Weichen is afraid, the emperor, you can't listen to one-sided words! ”

With that, he kowtowed respectfully, stood up, and went back to the train.

What he means, as a fellow, it's enough to be able to talk about this, I don't know anything, I have said so many good things for them, and I won't be scolded when I go back.

Chongzhen showed a look of appreciation on his face, this Wen Tiren is really a good person with affection and righteousness, so what such a good person said is worth pondering, so he began to think deeply.

There is a famous saying in later generations that when human beings think, God laughs.

Of course, no one in Daming knew this famous sentence at this time, but Wen Tiren was laughing in his heart at this time.

As soon as Chongzhen thought about it, Wen Tiren would laugh, because Chongzhen's careful thinking was all figured out by Wen Tiren, and Chongzhen would definitely think according to the train of thought he set!

Chongzhen really began to doubt again, it's really strange, how can such a famous Zhongliang be the remnants of the eunuch party, they are Jinshi in the twenty-sixth year of Wanli, they have been in the court for more than 30 years, there is no problem at all, why did they go wrong in one day, did they wronged them?

At this moment, the two of them are shouting grievances in the edict prison, Chongzhen knows this, of course, these are not what Luo Yangxing told him, but Wen Tiren's inside line told him.

Chongzhen didn't know, when people still have hope, they would definitely not admit it, Wen Tiren gave Min Hongxue and Min Mengde hope through the inside line, the two of them naturally didn't admit it, they were still loyal ministers when they were killed, and if they did, they would be traitors!

Wen Tiren has an inside line in Dongchang and Jinyiwei, which is beyond doubt, because in history, Qian Qianyi was imprisoned in the edict and asked Cao Huachun for help, Cao Huachun just received the news, Wen Tiren received the news, and he also started to attack first, and went to Chongzhen to falsely accuse Cao Huachun of colluding with foreign ministers and plotting against him, which is the reason for his defeat.

Chongzhen was tricked into the game by him again, and began to hesitate.

After thinking for a while, Chongzhen raised his head and said, "If you have any opinions, let's discuss them." ”

Wen Tiren unconsciously preset a premise in Chongzhen's mind: After being loyal and good, the scholarly family has no problem in being an official in the court for more than 30 years, how can it be possible to attach to the eunuch, this is an unjust case!

The military officials below showed a look of horror, this Wen Tiren is really shameless, he doesn't care what bad things Min Hongxue and Min Mengde have done, and directly guides the emperor, so that the emperor thinks that someone is framing them, once the emperor thinks so, it will be troublesome, because everyone understands that this emperor is stubborn, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty can't get it back!

Zhang Bin also chuckled in his heart at this time, this guy is really shameless, deliberately changing the topic, avoiding the sins committed by Min Hongxue and Min Mengde, and directly misleading Chongzhen, making Chongzhen think that they were framed! Obviously, Chongzhen has been moved by him, at this time, has anyone in the court fought him?

His worries are unnecessary, at this time, Wen Tiren is not the first assistant of the cabinet, and the upright people in the DPRK and the central government have not been completely squeezed out by him, he wants to cover the sky with one hand, and it is still early.

Just when the upright people in the court were thinking about how to break the situation under Wen Tiren, a person stood up.

This person is the first place in the first class of the Renxu Kedian test in the second year of the Apocalypse, the champion Lang Wen Zhenmeng!

Wen Zhenmeng's official career can be described as extremely bumpy, because he is too upright, just like his ancestor Wen Tianxiang, and he has a sense of "no one has died in life since ancient times, leaving Dan to take care of his sweat." "The heart of martyrdom.

As soon as he was admitted to the top prize, he immediately played the impeachment of Wei Zhongxian, and painstakingly advised the apocalypse not to let the women's temple interfere in politics, because the women's temple is the way to destroy the country, which has been verified by many dynasties, and it is an iron-clad fact.

However, unfortunately, his recital was detained by Wei Zhongxian and did not reach the hands of the Apocalypse, and Wei Zhongxian specially arranged for the Apocalypse to watch a puppet show, in the play, as soon as the puppet emperor appeared on the stage, he directly took out a copy of Wen Zhenmeng's recital and pointed to the word "puppet" on it to show the Apocalypse, framing Wen Zhenmeng for relying on himself as the champion of the new department, arrogant and boundless, mocking the apocalypse as a puppet!

The apocalypse was furious and asked Wei Zhongxian to severely punish Wen Zhenmeng, and Wei Zhongxian directly passed the decree and dragged Wen Zhenmeng out to beat the eighty boards!

Beat the eighty boards, which means that Wen Zhenmeng, the new champion, will be killed alive, and as a result, it is very miraculous that Wen Zhenmeng was not killed by the cane, but after he was dismissed by Wei Zhongxian and returned to his hometown, he closed his door and thanked the guests, planning to die of old age and not go out of the mountain.

A new champion, in less than half a year of high school, was almost killed by Wei Zhongxian.

Later, in history, in the Chongzhen Dynasty, Chongzhen asked him to go out of the mountain, and he came out again, but because of the impeachment of Wang Yongguang, he was involved in the case of Yuan Chonghuan by the remnants of the eunuch party, and he was dismissed again and his nationality was reduced.

Later, the upright people in the DPRK tried their best to rehabilitate him, and he went out of the mountain again, but unfortunately, because of the impeachment of Wen Tiren, he was framed and dismissed by Wen Tiren, and after that time, he was disheartened, and he never went out of the mountain again, and he really died depressed at home.

However, at this time, it was because Zhang Bin saved Yuan Chonghuan that he was not implicated, and he was still in the court at this time, so he stood up, and when the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were afraid of Wen Tiren, he was the first to come forward.

Judging from the performance of Zhou Yanru and Wen Zhenmeng, Zhuangyuanlang's EQ seems to be low, and Zhou Yanru finally knew that he united with Wen Tiren to get rid of Qian Qianyi and become a cabinet scholar, and then used the resumption of the society to build momentum and ascend to the position of first assistant to the cabinet.

This Wen Zhenmeng was tough with the eunuch as soon as he came out, and tough with the eunuch as soon as he came out, as a result, just once, he was shot to death once, just once, he was shot to death once, and after being shot to death three times in a row, he found that he couldn't do the eunuch party, and then he was angry!

Wen Zhenmeng's life as a champion is a bit tragic, or tragic, basically he will be shot to death as soon as he shows up, and his time as an official may not be as long as Zhou Yanru's time as the first assistant.

However, his unafraid of power and upright character is still very admirable.

As soon as he stood up, the civil and military officials couldn't help but be in awe, and even Wen Tiren frowned, this stunned young man, I don't know what amazing words there will be, I hope Chongzhen won't be affected by him.

His worries are not unreasonable, Chongzhen, he still attaches more importance to Zhuang Yuanlang, otherwise Zhou Yanru is such an infighting layman, and the nerd who is more amateur in the external fighting will not be promoted to the first assistant of the cabinet unusually.

The famous champion Lang vs. the famous traitor, who will win this battle?
