Chapter 57 The Invisible Pusher (Endless Recommendations and Collections, Waiting for Support)
"Nonsense. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
After receiving the report from his subordinates, Li Gang raised his angry eyebrows and slammed his fist on the rosewood table
"In his eyes, he only has his own famous name, no family and country, a good student who deceives the world and steals his name, and a good Chen Dong."
"It's not a pity for Chen Dong to die, the most important thing is not to let the soldiers make trouble, if the forbidden army can't bear it and accidentally injure people's lives, stirring up a civil uprising, the gains outweigh the losses."
The staff asked Li Gang to calm down and deal with the immediate crisis.
"Mr. Lu has any opinions, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
Li Gang was also in a hurry.
The deeper the expectations, the greater the disappointment, originally after the Qing Dynasty was finished and the dynasty was revitalized, Li Gang wanted to ask Chen Dong to be used today, and first put it in the position of supervising the imperial history and slowly cultivate, and he would eventually become the mainstay of the Daling Dynasty.
Chen Dong's collision brought out the fame of Taotian, sabotaged the overall plan of the main battle faction, and Li Gang could not afford to use people who only cared about themselves and ignored the overall situation.
"The arrow is on the string, I have to send it, if the Xiangye withdraws his hand at this time, the scholars of the world will be cold, and they will no longer be determined to follow, and now they are bent on peace, and the only concern is the people's hearts, and the people's hearts are in their hands, so as to compete with Geng Nanzhong's villains."
Chen Dong's blood cannot be shed in vain.
"Jinshang has a lot of dissatisfaction with us, and Chen Dong's account of forcing the palace is also counted on my head, so it is really unwise to go against Jinshang again."
The main battle and the main peace faction are like fire and water in the DPRK and China, and Li Gang's actions affect the whole body.
"Wait a minute, as soon as Tang Bohu arrives, maybe the situation will change, and if he sends a letter to Jinshang, the effect will not be worse than Chen Dong."
Li Gang's thoughts remain the same, whether it is Chen Dong or Tang Yin, they are all playing the role of charging into battle, and he supports him from the side, so as to avoid giving Jinshang too much disgust.
"Time is not enough, if the forbidden army is mobilized today to arrest the soldiers, Geng Nanzhong will definitely take the opportunity to make waves and bite the main envoy behind the scenes, his lips are cold, and Xiangye has to be cautious."
The lesser of two evils, Mr. Lu and Li Gang accelerated their choice.
When he was in a dilemma, the next person came to report, and there was a rumor in the palace that Li Gang immediately entered the palace to face the king.
Li Gang changed into official clothes, took a sedan chair to the imperial city, and in the middle of the line, the army in front of the palace came to take over the guard, Li Gang felt strange, and after asking, he learned that the angry scholars occupied the surrounding area of the imperial city, and the courtiers had to be protected by the army in front of the palace to enter and exit.
Several ministers of the main peace faction were killed, blasted out of the palanquin, tore their official uniforms, and fled.
Li Gang was secretly shocked in his heart, he obviously called someone to communicate with the representatives of the scholars, hoping that they could calm down, but obviously it had no effect.
Recognized as Li Gang's sedan chair, the scholars flocked over, asking Li Gang to speak for Chen Dong, the army in front of the palace blocked a wave, and another wave of people squeezed on, a burst of pushing, the sedan chair seemed to be a small boat in the stormy waves, carrying floating and sinking, shaking Li Gang's meat, and suddenly knew that there was no result, I am afraid that it could not be good.
Mr. Lu is right, since he wants to stand on the opposite side of today, he can't lose the strong backing of the people's heart, Chen Dong is stupid, but the matter has come to this point, there is no reason to retreat, Chen Dong's sacrifice has to be exchanged for substantial benefits, Zhu Mian must die, use his blood to sacrifice the flag, so as to call on more bloody men to go to the battlefield to kill Jin soldiers.
complained that Chen Dong couldn't hold his breath, and blamed Tang Yin for not arriving a day early.
It was useless to think too much, Li Gang entered the palace and came to the Jinluan Palace, and the two rows were already full of civil and military ministers and many colleagues.
Although Geng Nanzhong and Zhang Bangchang are well-dressed, they still can't hide their embarrassed looks on their faces.
Wu Min, the squire of the military department, is a resolute main battle faction in the DPRK and China, and he is also a good friend of Li Gang, he glared at Geng Nanzhong with a red face, presumably there had been a fierce quarrel before, and seeing Wu Min's sassy appearance, he obviously had the upper hand.
Shu Zong's face was gloomy, and when he saw Li Gang, he excused himself from the big gift and asked him what to do with the scholars who were out of control outside the imperial city.
"I never thought of Chen Dong's life, he was going to fall into injustice."
Chen Dong's move put great pressure on Shuzong, forcing Zhongliang to death, and leaving a stigma in the history books was not Shuzong's wish.
"Gather the crowd to threaten it, and heaven will not tolerate it, so these people should show the public the head, and ask the emperor to order the arrest of the people who are in chaos in the palace, so as to correct the law and discipline of my Daling."
Geng Nanzhong stood up and vented his anger for Shuzong.
"There are tens of thousands of people outside the imperial city, and there has been a civil uprising, Geng Zuocheng, can you bear the responsibility?"
Wu Min said to Geng Nanzhong, expressing Shuzong's anxiety, if it weren't for this concern, Shuzong would have eradicated Chen Dong and driven away a cadre of scholars.
Geng Nanzhong snorted and no longer looked at Wu Min, in case because of his suggestion, the scholars rushed into the imperial city, Shuzong would definitely push him out to atone for his crimes.
"What do you say, Lee Sang."
The two factions quarreled, the actions of the scholars became more and more intense, shouting for an explanation, the commander of the army in front of the palace had just reported, hearing the news of Chen Dong's death, and the grieving crowd was coming from all directions, many of whom were Bianjing people.
Last time, Chen Dong asked to get rid of the six thieves, Shuzong pushed the boat down the river to clear out a group of old ministers, and the Emperor Taishang used to protect Zhu Mian and replace Cai Jing for five people, at that time Li Gang was the first to nod and agree, less than a year, Chen Dong brought up the old matter again, Shuzong thought that Li Gang was to blame, and he had to give an explanation.
"The minister has been."
Li Gang knelt down and begged.
"Chen Dong does not think about the grace of the saint, has no court, and is selfish, but his loyalty to my Daling can be seen by the sun and the moon, even if there are all kinds of mistakes, his feelings are pitiful, and the minister hopes that the emperor will remember that he is dead, forgive his crimes, and forgive the heart of the world's scholars."
Geng Nanzhong scolded secretly: "Old fox."
can do Chen Dong, how can Chen Dong commit suicide alive, Li Gang retreats as advances, forcing him to make concessions today.
"What's the use of saying this, what I want is for you to draw up a charter and relieve the siege of the Imperial City now."
Shu Zong hated Chen Dong, Chen Dong's hatred was not only nowhere to go, but also unbearable, Chen Dong was already in the eyes of the scholars, sacrosanct, like a god, any condemnation, slander will cause a backlash and cause a big disaster.
Wu Min stood beside Li Gang and said, "The minister thinks that only by killing Zhu Mian can the people be angry."
"By no means, in case all the subjects of the world threaten the court with death in the future, how can I have peace in my big feather."
At Geng Nanzhong's suggestion, Zhang Bangchang spoke out to resist Wu Min.
"Zhu Mian's life and death are ruled by the Holy God and the law, and tens of thousands of people are not enough to represent the thousands of people of my Daling."
Zhang Bangchang's words have been recognized by many people.
"Dare to ask Zhang Dazai, what should be done with the tens of thousands of scholars outside the imperial city?"
Li Gang didn't move, turned his head and asked Zhang Bangchang.
"Order the forbidden army to arrest and put him in prison, and punish all those who lead him."
Zhang Bangchang already had a case in his abdomen, and he forcibly dispersed it by force once and for all.
"Zhang Dazai's words are reasonable, and the minister seconded the proposal, asking the emperor to immediately issue an order, and send soldiers to sweep away the chaotic people with the forbidden army and Kaifeng Mansion Yin."
Li Gang kowtowed to ask for instructions, Zhang Bangchang thought that there would be a fierce debate, but he didn't expect Li Gang to use his strength to push the notoriety of using soldiers against scholars onto him, and he was angry for a while, and he was speechless: "Zhang Xiang, you ......"
Because it is a dilemma, there has been a stalemate these days, Shuzong wants to wait for change, Chen Dong's death broke the situation, forcing Shuzong to express his position, Shuzong gathered courtiers to pave a step for the royal family, and when Li Gang opened his mouth, there was a compromise, Zhang Bangchang did not open which pot to mention, which attracted Shuzong's eyes, Zhang Bangzong's heart was shocked, and he quickly silenced.
"Chen Dong is also a brave and loyal, I respect his integrity, but as a minister, he should follow the right track, and should not take the wrong side."
Shuzong had no choice but to open Chrysostom to set the tone, Chen Dong became a loyal and righteous person of the imperial seal, and the words have come to this point, Li Gang naturally will not get an inch again, and take the initiative to relieve Shuzong.
"The emperor's teachings, the ministers must bear it in mind, and all my Daling subjects should obey and follow it."
Li Gang started, and Wu Min followed, kneeling together from the main battle to the main peace faction.
Shu Zong didn't say anything specific, but everyone knows that Zhu Mian's days are over.
Chen Dong is loyal, Zhu Mian is a traitor, Chen Dong is not guilty, Zhu Mian is guilty, and the crime has long been placed there, just waiting for the guillotine of the holy decree to cut down.
I thought that Chen Dong would die headlong, leaving him with a bloody hot hand, but I didn't expect it to end so easily.
Today, he is cowardly, not only Li Gang, but all the ministers have the bottom in their hearts, but the dignity of the royal people does not mean that they can be let go, especially when Zhu Mian's backer is the emperor.
Li Gang and Wu Min are the two main forces of Shangshu to invite the Emperor Taishang Zen to be located in the present, the Emperor Taishang regarded the two as a thorn in his side, and hated Chen Dong, and the Emperor Taishang made a hindrance from it, Li Gang was not optimistic about Chen Dong's request, until Tang Yin was suddenly mentioned today, and when Zhu Mian was quite complaining in his words, Li Gang had confidence and decided to support Chen Dong.
Is it really Chen Dong's death that loosened Jinshang's heart? Li Gang was suspicious, and he had an indescribable feeling that told him that Chen Dong was very likely to die in vain.
The Holy Will has been decided, and the next step is the routine, the drafting, the sealing, and the promulgation.
Shuzong ordered Li Gang and Wu Min to go out of the city to announce the decree, and as soon as the gate of the imperial city was opened, the scholars saw Li Gang walking out with the holy decree, and shouted passionately Long live our emperor, and tens of thousands of people fell to the ground at the same time, speculating and uneasy in their hearts.
The holy decree begins with a reprimand for Chen Dong, showing the majesty of the emperor, and then Huairou comforts the deceased loyal soul to show the emperor's grace, Shuzong forgave Chen Dong's various unhonorable measures, and rewarded a county man with the title.
Reward means meritorious, Chen Dong's merit lies in the exaltation of Zhu Mian's faults, Zhu Mian's charges are too numerous to mention, from Li Gang's mouth one by one, exile, confiscation of his family property, although not sentenced to death, but enough to calm the anger of the scholars.
The moment Chen Dong's cousin received the holy decree, the front of the imperial city fell into a frenzy, the scholars cheered, hugged each other and wept, and the people joined in the celebration.
Chen Dong's sacrifice was not in vain, and he will still accept the advice today, the traitorous ministers will subdue the law, and the Daling Dynasty is expected to prosper.
Wu Min took the lead in shouting to the palace, "Emperor Shengming." Bianjing City instantly entered the magnificent atmosphere of the monarch and the people.
Li Gang was reluctant to give up, and when he thought about reading the draft decree today, he casually murmured: "If only the scholars in the world were like Tang Bohu who knew the great righteousness and understood things."
Tang Bohu!
From the moment the decree was announced, Tang Yin's name occupied Li Gang's mind and lingered.
