Chapter 3: Above the Court
At this time, in the Fengtian Palace, the civil and military officials had already arrived, standing crookedly on both sides, because they were used to the previous appearance, so they were very unaccustomed to this morning.
Some squinted their eyes, some didn't wear their official hats properly, some were hanging their heads and were sleepy, and some were piled up together and whispering.
"Lord Chen, what do you say is going on today, hasn't the emperor not been in court for several years?
"Who knows! I know as much as I do, and in a daze, I received a notice from the Lord of the King, and hurried here. ”
"Lord Zhang, you are the national ruler, you should know the inside story, right? After all, your daughter is the queen mother!"
"What do I know? I haven't been home since the queen entered the palace, and I know as much as you know, the harem is under the control of the royal governor, and the emperor does not go to court. ”
"Even if we are relatives of the emperor, we can't enter the palace! I haven't seen that daughter of mine in a few years! You ask me, who will I ask!"
"The emperor has arrived!
At this time, Xiao Huangmen shouted! The civil and military officials, who were originally bustling, hurriedly divided into two parts and knelt down respectfully.
"The ministers knock on the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
Zhu Haotian strode towards Longzi, looked at the gold-carved dragon chair, sat down directly, and then waved his hand.
"All the ministers are flat!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty. ”
After the civil and military officials stood up one after another, they looked at Zhu Haotian and stood there with their heads down, silent, waiting for Zhu Haotian to speak.
looked at the civil and military officials, lowered their heads one after another, and sat on the high dragon chair.
The heart is heroic and abnormal, and there is a feeling of seeing the mountains at a glance.
"Something to play, nothing to retreat!" At this time, Wang Dynasty stood beside him, and a soft voice sounded.
In his heart, Zhu Haotian was just playing, and he didn't have any government affairs, and all the twists and turns were stopped by him.
He didn't want the emperor to know about the outside world, many of these officials were not right with him, because of the abnormal behavior of the emperor today, the dynasty was uneasy, so he wanted to retreat from the dynasty as soon as possible.
"Your Majesty, the minister has a book to play!"
At this time, one by one, the middle-aged ministers walked out and knelt on the ground, although Zhu Haotian inherited the memory of this body, but the other party had not been to the court for several years.
I can't remember the names of some ministers, and this world, although it is very similar to the Ming Dynasty in the previous life, is not.
However, Zhu Haotian still knew his name from memory, and the other party was an upright official named Chen Shuzheng, who was a household servant.
The reason why Zhu Haotian remembers him is because he is not a member of the dynasty, nor has he formed a gang with various officials, he is very upright, his sleeves are clean, and he has a nickname Iron Rooster.
The other party is not only decent, but also not afraid of death, anyone dares to offend, so Zhu Haotian will remember him.
"It turned out to be Chen Aiqing, what's the matter with Chen Aiqing, get up and speak!" After knowing this person's information, Zhu Haotian was ready to reuse this person, so he waved his hand and asked him to say.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. ”
"Your Majesty, if you are in Shudi, Zhongzhou and other places today, there has been drought for many years, the locust disaster is serious, there is no harvest in many places, the people are miserable, and many places have reached the point where they can't eat. ”
"Minister, I beg Your Majesty to open the treasury and save the people from fire and water!" Chen Shuzheng lay on the ground at this time and wept silently.
Hearing Chen Shuzheng's words at this time, Zhu Haotian was furious, he knew that this world was similar to the previous life, the dynasty and the ministers of the court were fighting, and they were not in the mood to manage the country at all, but they didn't expect that they would solve such a big matter.
"Sun Shangshu, what do you say? The people of the world are miserable, as the head of the household, don't you have a little movement?"
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do, but now that the treasury is empty, and without His Majesty's will, Chen does not dare to open the treasury privately. ”
"Minister! I have already written this matter down and handed it over to the king, but I have not waited for His Majesty's will, so the minister does not dare to make decisions on his own, and I ask Your Majesty to take notice. ”
At this time, Sun Juzheng, the head of the household, knelt down with a plop, and reported to Zhu Haotian tremblingly.
"Hmph, what do you say? Why don't I know about such a big thing?"
Although Zhu Haotian knew about this matter, it was because his predecessor ignored the government that this incident occurred.
Now these officials, when they see Zhu Haotian, all point the finger at the dynasty and exonerate themselves from responsibility.
But Zhu Haotian is determined to deal with these incompetent officials and Wang Chao and others, so he wants to do things.
"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty, because Your Majesty was having fun a few days ago, the minister can't bear to disturb Your Majesty and the Emperor, so forget about this matter, please forgive Your Majesty!" At this time, Wang Chao knelt on the ground with a thud.
Wang Chao knew what he had done, since he was found out by these officials, His Majesty was angry, but he understood Zhu Haotian's character, and he only wanted it for his own good.
He will deal with this matter, in his opinion, now Zhu Haotian can't wipe his face, and he must find a scapegoat.
Since this is the case, the emperor will not touch him, it is just a punishment, and it will not be done when the time comes.
Even so, at this time, the dynasty had already hated the two of them, and decided to get over this matter and make them look good.
"Hmph, forgiveness, such a big thing, how can you let me forgive my sins!"
Zhu Haotian sneered and shouted loudly: "Dynasty, you have deceived and deceived the palace for many years, and now you have committed such a big crime, and the crime is unforgivable. ”
"Where are the Praetorian Guards?"
"The last general!" With a bang, more than a dozen guards outside the palace gate all walked in, led by a general, saluted respectfully, and waited for Zhu Haotian's order.
"According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, the dynasty should connect the nine clans to set an example!"
"Drag the dynasty down and behead it for public use! Anyone who is involved with him will be killed!"
Dynasty: "......"
Baiguan: "......"
Praetorian Guard: "......"
At this time, everyone in the court was dumbfounded, they didn't expect this kind of result, although the hundred officials wanted to eradicate the dynasty, but they didn't expect to succeed.
it! It's not true! Does the emperor really want to kill the dynasty?
How is it possible? Why did the emperor kill me......!
The dynasty originally thought that even if Zhu Haotian punished him, he would be pretending, but he didn't expect to punish him for the nine clans, which made him stunned for a while.
Those guards of the forbidden army were all subordinates of the dynasty, and when they heard Zhu Haotian's order, they were not arrested or arrested, and they were stunned for a while.
"Smack! Bastard, don't you even listen to my holy decree? Do you want to resist the decree and disobey it, and want to be like a dynasty and even the nine clans?"
At this time, Zhu Haotian really saw that the guards didn't listen to him, so he directly slapped the case and shouted loudly.
"Hahaha! Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it turns out that you really want to kill the slave, but you didn't expect it! The old slave has served His Majesty for many years, but he didn't even find out. ”
Wang Chao laughed at this time, then stood up, then looked around and said:
"Your Majesty, you should know that in the entire palace, most of the guards and eunuchs are from my dynasty, and these people outside the palace are my henchmen. ”
"Originally, we were tied together, you are your emperor, I am my minion, and the slave guarantees you that you will be comfortable for the rest of your life. ”
"But you are unwise to want to get rid of me, and my dynasty will not sit still, you forced me, and it is not so easy to kill me. ”
"Now that things have come to this point, you toast and don't eat and drink, everyone should not leave, and your emperor has done it, and this seat has decided that you will not be able to leave the harem for the rest of your life. ”
The dynasty has already thought about letting Zhu Haotian be a puppet and put him under house arrest in the palace, and his henchmen are all high-level in Jinyiwei and Dongchang.
Now that the hundred officials are in the palace again, their troops are all outside the city, and they can't enter the palace at all, so he decided to blackmail these officials and play a big game with him.
Thinking of this, Wang Chao said to the outside: "Wangcheng! pass my order, block all passages of the palace, no one is allowed to enter without my order, and let the people of Jinyiwei and Dongchang get ready, and wait for this seat to let them receive the army outside the city." ”
