Chapter 810: Killing Decision

Chapter 810: Killing Decision

Since the early dynasty often began to prepare before the end of the day, the emperor's morning province was generally after the early dynasty, but the whole night before, Zhu Zhanji stayed in Renshou Palace. Although Empress Dowager Zhang has gradually let go of state affairs on weekdays, she has admonished Zhu Zhanji, and last night she learned about the scene of Fusi in Beizhen, she was so angry that she fainted, but as soon as Zhu Zhanji returned to the palace, she admitted her mistake in Renshou Palace, and confessed the truth of the matter one by one, and finally said something that made her stunned, and she gradually calmed down a little.

"The queen mother, the Song Dynasty saluted the scholars, beware of the martial arts, as a result, the emperor generation was as weak as a generation, although the scholars controlled the government, but there was no foresight, and the frontier aliens rose, and swept the world, this is the greatest admonition. In the past, the emperor's grandfather personally taught me to ride a horse and archery, because he didn't want the prince to blindly grow up in the deep palace and not know martial affairs, so everything was decided by the hands of foreign ministers. I know I shouldn't kill the minister in a rage, but Dai Lun is really hateful! As far as the Han and Tang Dynasties, scholars and doctors had many swords, and they were not ashamed of practicing martial arts, but I just liked to shoot and hunt back then, so I was admonished by the ministers to be desolate, and even the emperor's eldest son's upbringing was also criticized. Determine the country by force, govern the country by literature, but to the world for a long time, we must not blindly respect literature and suppress force. ”

At this moment, seeing that Zhu Zhanji had changed into a court dress, Empress Dowager Zhang couldn't help but feel a little confused in front of her. Her husband Zhu Gaochi has been physically disabled since he was a child, and he has never been able to pull a horse or bow on a horse, and he naturally does not have much closeness to Xungui. Since there is no way out on the Wuchen side, she can only focus on encircling the Wenchen, and now those few are indeed first-class virtuous ministers, so she naturally has that bias.

"You've decided?"

"Yes, it has come to this, and that's all. However, let them know both gratitude and deterrence. ”

"Then you can go to the court."

Zhu Zhanji bowed deeply to the Empress Dowager Zhang, and then said with a gloomy face: "The affairs of the inner study hall will be handled by the queen mother. ”

The mother and son looked at each other deeply, and then Zhu Zhanji turned around and walked out of the main hall of Renshou Palace. It wasn't until the emperor had already walked for a while that Empress Dowager Zhang stood up, and her hands naturally folded in front of the dark red phoenix-patterned jacket. After standing for a long time, she sighed without looking back.

"Although it is an internal affair of the palace, it does not have to be too widely implicated. Since the Emperor of Neishutang didn't want to withdraw, he kept it. In the early years, Huang Yanjiang Chong and others were involved in rebellion, that is, those few people were killed in the city, and the others were just reduced to miscellaneous laborers in the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau. Sun Guifei, you should go and warn a few words. ”

Zhu Ning was afraid that Empress Dowager Zhang would let her go to the inner study hall, and when she heard this, she knew that Empress Dowager Zhang was not willing to disobey the emperor's will too much, so she hurriedly agreed. Before leaving the main hall, she heard the voice of the Empress Dowager Zhang instructing Lu Feng from behind, to the effect that this inner study hall can no longer be as active as before, and it is not advisable to be taught by university scholars.

Hearing this, her steps down the stairs couldn't help but become more brisk. If the court meeting was arranged according to Zhu Zhanji's previous words, the future emperor would have someone close to him, and the importance of the inner study hall would naturally be lower. Empress Dowager Zhang even added layers of shackles on it, which should ensure that it is impossible to do trouble for a period of time. Although Dai Lun died a little unjustly, after all, it was too much to say, and now the crime is not even related to relatives, it is better than causing a big storm.

It's just that she needs to be careful when she goes to Sun Guifei to speak, after all, she is the mother of the only emperor's eldest son, and she can't hurt people's face.

Fengtianmen is always in court.

Just like the bell rings on weekdays to open the door, the civil and military officials enter one after another from the left and right doors, and stand solemnly in the south of the Jinshui Bridge according to the grade, waiting for the whip to sound, then one by one across the Jinshui Bridge, to the front of the Danqi into the class, and then with the class salute. However, during the whole process, everyone saw Wang Jin on the emperor's left hand side holding a wooden box, whether they knew what happened last night or those who didn't know what happened last night, they all had some suspicions in their hearts.

Zhang Yue is now a squire in the military department, and his rank is much earlier than when he was an officer in the military department. With his eyesight, he could even see the dragon pattern on the wooden box. At this moment, just a turn of his mind, he thought of what the emperor might do, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief without a trace. Zhu Zhanji is not Zhu Di after all, after yesterday's outrage, this decision finally came.

According to the general rules of the regular dynasty, first the officials of Honglu Temple announced the words of thanksgiving, and all the officials saluted outside the noon gate in turn, and then each yamen played the corresponding things in turn. In this Japan, there will be no official resignations, and there will be few things to do, and it will be time to disperse the dynasty. However, when the official of Honglu Temple said that the performance was over and that he should whip and retreat, Zhu Zhanji on the throne suddenly spoke.

"Yesterday's incident, I think many of you already know. Yesterday during the day, someone first accused Gu Qing of the Imperial History of the Left Capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate of accepting the money of the Emperor to return to the farm, after investigation it was an old practice of the official office, and the rest of the lawlessness was a false accusation, I have ordered the East Investigation Factory to lead the Jinyi Guard to get 12 traitorous officials overnight, as well as the original Imperial Shi Yan Hao who fled back from the Liaodong Wei Institute without permission. Such traitors and villains frame ministers, and their sins cannot be forgiven, and they will be killed in the city tomorrow to set an example! ”

Although the matter of Gu Zuo being framed has been spread long ago, after all, most people still don't know. Therefore, those who felt that the Metropolitan Procuratorate had been in trouble one after another recently, and were waiting to see Gu Zuo's jokes, were all shocked when they heard this. However, before their disappointment could dissipate, the Emperor's sonorous voice was heard from above again.

"Does anyone know what's in this small box?"

Zhu Zhanji glanced at the courtiers, and saw that Yang Shiqi and other insiders were all stunned, and most of the others were at a loss, he knew that the news had not yet spread, and he couldn't help but smile: "This is a list sent to me yesterday by the commander of the Jinyi Guard, Wang Jie, which lists the new fields of officials above the fourth rank in the dynasty and the family population in the past 20 years. There were still people arguing before that it was not appropriate to be too harsh, but I really didn't expect that someone would present such a thing all of a sudden. ”

At this moment, the originally silent Danqi seemed to be dead, and even the faint sound of breathing stopped. Not to mention the Beijing officials above the fourth grade, even the officials below the fourth grade and so on all felt that their heads were blank. This brocade guard has always been a detective official colluding in lawlessness, but this lawlessness in no way includes investigating the official's family property. Officials above the fourth grade have been qualified for so many years, even if they are clean, God knows if there are any clansmen who make a name for themselves in their own name?

Seeing the faces that froze for an instant, Zhu Zhanji suddenly sneered: "If you open this lid and send it to the Metropolitan Procuratorate of Dali Temple, according to the old system of Taizu, I am afraid that Zhu Qing will hurt more than just his face." I know that my officials have always been miserable, and what my family has done cannot be completely attributed to you, so I will not punish you with this secret performance...... Someone, burn this box document in public! ”

As soon as these words came out, Wang Jie, who originally felt that he was raising his eyebrows, suddenly looked like ashes. Although there is still an archive in the Jinyi Guard, since the emperor said such a thing, he naturally knows that not only did he not get the authority to investigate these things this time, but he was also pushed into the most embarrassing situation. Seeing that a eunuch behind Wang Jin came up with a brazier and threw the wooden box into it, the high flames swallowed things up at once, and he only felt that his body was a little shaky.

"I know you'd think I've probably seen this a long time ago. In my anger yesterday, I just glanced at these things, and now I give you a chance. Since the 26th year of Hongwu, the fish scale book and the yellow book, which record the enslaved population of the world, have been re-entered every year, but how many errors there are can be imagined. From now on, the world will re-determine the acres of land and the land of all states and counties will be re-registered. As long as it's not too outrageous, I can be forgiving; If you feel that it is too outrageous, you will deal with it yourself as soon as possible! The exemption from military service and exemption of the old Hongwu system has long been fixed, but now it may not be appropriate, and in the past few days, the six ministries and the cabinet have drawn up a new law, which will be set as a permanent system in the future! ”

The faces of many ministers who were thinking about whether they had escaped the catastrophe suddenly changed drastically. Preferential exemption of grain is a system set in the Hongwu period, but the official gentry are exempt from grain and food, and they are all according to the grade, and not all the fields and all the Dingkou under the name are exempted. As a result, more resentful eyes all looked at the Jinyi Guard's command envoy Wang Jie.

"In addition, the commander of the Jinyi Guard will not be ordered to spy on this matter without authorization, that is, he will be dismissed from his post and serve in front of the Daning Army!"

As these words landed, Wang Jie couldn't help but collapse to the ground. Holding the tightly knit white marble with both hands, a heart has fallen to the bottom. Suddenly, he remembered something, and couldn't help but shout: "Your Majesty, the minister is not spying without authorization, someone is ......"

However, the voice only stopped abruptly, Wang Jie didn't know when two people came out from behind him, one left and one right firmly held him hostage, and he didn't know what method was used to make people unable to speak, so he immediately carried people silently and retreated from the side. For a while, whether it was the official of the Honglu Temple who was in charge of the court's correction, or the imperial history of the Imperial Procuratorate, no one made a sound, and everyone was immersed in shock, even Yang Shiqi and others.

If Zhu Zhanji was imprisoned after this incident, and then dismissed Wang Jie afterwards, then naturally he was the same as the commander of the Jinyi Wei who hosted the Lan Yu case and Hu Weiyong's case in the Hongwu Dynasty, and he was cooking the cunning rabbit and the dead lackey; However, the emperor at least saved face for the ministers on the surface, and afterwards accused Wang Jie of acting without authorization, and at least gave them a step down. Although it is a more jaw-dropping event to check the Tianmu Dingkou in the world, it has been 30 years since the 26th year of Hongwu, and it is also reasonable to check the Tianmu again.

"In addition, I am now about to be established, and I have the eldest son of the emperor, and I have already thought about choosing a day to build the East Palace. I have been taught by Emperor Taizu since I was a child, and I have chosen the best and the best Confucians to teach and practice literature, and the avant-garde young army of the Jianfu Army has practiced martial arts. Once the East Palace is established, when the crown prince is old, I will choose the children of civil and military officials of appropriate age to accompany them to read and praise the literature and martial arts. ”

Within a day, several news in a row smashed up, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty felt a feeling of breathlessness. Even those who were willing to oppose the exhortation, at this moment they felt that their hearts were empty and they could not organize any words, so they could only watch the sound of the silent whip, and then the emperor got up from his throne and walked away. It wasn't until they retreated from the Jinshui Bridge one by one and came out of the noon gate that the civil officials and nobles gathered in a pile in twos and threes, but they didn't dare to raise their voices in this forbidden palace.

Compared with the shock of those civil officials, the nobles were overjoyed, if it weren't for the fact that it wasn't the Shuowang Dynasty today, and the British Gong Zhang Fu didn't come at all, they were afraid that they would have to surround people to ask about yesterday's scene. However, the main master is not there at the moment, but Zhang Yue is still there, and Chen Mao, the Marquis of Ningyang, came out of the civil official as soon as he prepared to build Zhang Yue, and he immediately wanted to call someone. Unexpectedly, a number of eunuchs came out in a hurry at noon, and a few hurried outside, and the other ran towards him as soon as he looked around.

"Marquis of Ningyang, summoned by the Queen Mother."

As soon as he heard that it was the Queen Mother, Ningyang Hou Chen Mao immediately put away the smiling appearance just now, glanced at the other little eunuchs who left, and asked, "Is the Queen Mother just seeing me, or is it ......?"

"Not only the Marquis of Ningyang, but also the Duke of Chengguo, the Marquis of Yangwu, the Marquis of Chengshan, the Marquis of Baoding, and the prince of Qianguo."

As soon as he heard this series of names, Ningyang Hou Chen Mao was suddenly a little suspicious and a little uneasy. Among these people summoned by Empress Dowager Zhang, two of them were even nobles who were in charge of the Governor's Mansion like him, and Mu Bin, the prince of Qianguo, often walked around his house these days, but his eldest son had close contacts with Mu Bin. So, although he saw that Zhang Yue had already spoken to a few colleagues and walked here, he had no way to come forward to talk, so he had to follow the eunuch who passed the message into the palace from the noon gate.

Zhang Yue saw that Ningyang Hou Chen Mao had entered the palace again, and he knew in his heart that the matter should be a foregone conclusion, and this wave of turmoil could be regarded as a temporary end. If he went out of the palace and returned to the yamen of the Ministry of War, the officials who were still stuffy like gourds just now exploded all of a sudden, and there were many discussions, but Shangshu Zhang Ben had a gloomy face, and went straight back to the main hall in the three gates without saying a word. As soon as he left, Feng Shilang walked even faster, and Zhang Yue, who was at the end, could clearly hear those discussions.

Although the words are different, the main theme is the same-this time the Son of Heaven has made up his mind!

In the evening, the East Factory Duty Division outside the North Gate went east.

On weekdays, only a small number of personnel remain on duty, but the duty department of the East Factory is heavily guarded on this day, not to mention inside, there is also a brightly dressed brocade guard standing outside. At this time, in addition to Wang Jin, who was accompanying Zhu Zhanji, Fan Hong, Jin Ying, Zhong Huai, and Huang Run were all present, and there were many heads and brains with heads and faces.

Lu Feng, the commander of the East Factory, stood at the bottom of the steps in a new official uniform, looking at the dozen or so eunuchs who were pressed to death with pride, and then stared at Wang Zhen's face with a sad smile, and it took a long time to burst out a few words.

"By the order of the Queen Mother, immediately walk the rod until death!"

secretly deceived his nephew to the capital, and instigated him to cause trouble, this is looking for his own death! If it weren't for Wang Jie's lust for profit this time, he listened to Zhang Yue's reminder and kept an eye on it, otherwise he would really be raising tigers!
