Chapter 570: Tears
When I thought of the hundred officials who were still kneeling at the noon gate, the emperor had a headache, these people were too pedantic, and they really didn't know what to do!
Fortunately, Zhang Zhijie had already agreed with his own imperial expedition, and Emperor Zhengde looked forward to it: "Zhijie, what, what should I do with the hundred officials who kneel at the noon gate?" Why don't you go and persuade them? ”
Zhang Zhijie spread his hands and said: "The two scholars are the heads of civil officials, and even they have no problem with them, let alone ministers?" The minister has no prestige among the civil officials, and it is estimated that no one will listen to the minister! ”
Although he knew that what Zhang Zhijie said was the truth, but just as the emperor still had a hope after all, now even the last hope has been shattered!
Emperor Zhengde was a little embarrassed: "Then what now?" Just let them kneel? After finishing the army, I left Beijing directly with the army? ”
It seems that Emperor Zhengde's original plan was like this, no matter what, he directly led the army away! But it's not a safe way to do it.
At this time, Ma Yongcheng couldn't help but hesitate: "Your Majesty, why don't you let the old slaves disperse the hundred officials?" ”
In fact, what Ma Yongcheng wanted to say more in his heart was to directly find out more than a dozen typical court canes in public, and after the court staff was finished, he directly asked Fanzi to wave the horse whip to disperse the hundred officials, and what he insisted on not leaving was ill-intentioned, and he was directly escorted to the edict prison for a hundred!
Ma Yongcheng saw that Emperor Zhengde did not mean to use the court staff, so he considered avoiding the important and only said to disperse!
But Li Xing, who had been listening to the side, couldn't help but sneer in his heart, he really went back more and more! Didn't it happen that when the hundred officials asked the Eight Tigers to be punished, there was a kneeling admonition of the hundred officials at noon? How was it done at the time? Isn't it just a court staff and then dispersed, and then the disobedient directly take the matter, how simple it is to solve it!
Emperor Zhengde listened to Ma Yongcheng's words, and his heart was a little moved, and he raised his eyes to look at Zhang Zhijie, waiting for Zhang Zhijie's opinion.
"Dispel, this is the last resort! It would be nice if I could win the understanding of the officials! According to the minister's opinion, the emperor might as well go to the noon gate and explain to the hundred officials! Zhang Zhijie groaned.
"Oh! These civil officials are a little pedantic in their brains! Even if I explain my hardships earnestly, they may not necessarily understand, and they must feel that the emperor should be bound to the capital for the rest of his life, and he should review and deal with state affairs every day! Emperor Zhengde frowned.
"The emperor doesn't say that he is suffering, but he should start from the country!" Zhang Zhijie shook his head and said.
"Jiangshan Sheji?" Emperor Zhengde was a little puzzled.
"That's right, Jiangshan Sheji! It is said that during the reign of the first emperor, the world was the same, and the four seas were peaceful! Now that the emperor has inherited the great treasure for only a few years, there have been repeated rebellions in the world, which have spread widely, causing countless people to be displaced and uprooted from their homes! Every time I think about it, my heart is full of grief! ”
"Thinking about the reason, it is because the emperor is young and knowledgeable, and Long Wei can't subdue the four seas! That's why I want to drive the expedition in person, and the heavenly soldiers will go to the four seas to serve the salty clothes, so as to deter the unhealthy people, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and live a peaceful life! ”
"That's it! It's kind of interesting! Emperor Zhengde said thoughtfully.
"Yes, that's it, the words must be sincere, it's best to cry when you say you're grieving, the kind with tears in your eyes!" Zhang Zhijie said with a smile.
"Bitter? Still crying? This is a little difficult, since I can remember, except when my father passed away, I have never cried! "Emperor Zhengde is embarrassed.
Forget about this stubble! It is indeed a little embarrassing for Emperor Zhengde to cry, after all, he has never experienced the hardships of life! It's a pity that there are no onions, otherwise it would have been much easier!
Zhang Zhijie groaned: "If you want to cry, you can also borrow an external force, such as twisting your thighs and twisting your waist or something, of course, you have to work hard, otherwise it will have no effect!" ”
It hurts to think about it, but Emperor Zhengde still nodded and said, "Okay, just do it!" Gone, right? ”
"Of course, there are, but these are not enough, the emperor also has to analyze what is the difference between this expedition and the change of the civil fort back then, and let them know that the emperor's personal expedition will not happen similar to the change of the civil fort! The officials are like a cup of bows and snakes, as long as they know how to dispel the worries in their hearts, and then move them with affection, they should be able to understand! Zhang Zhijie said with a smile.
Emperor Zhengde listened to Zhang Zhijie's words, pondered it carefully, and felt that there was indeed some truth and it was worth a try!
Zhang Yong also thinks that this method is good, although Ma Yongcheng feels a little regretful, but he has to admit that this method is really likely to succeed!
Next, Emperor Zhengde and Zhang Zhijie studied the next words and sentences together, and then conducted some rehearsals, and felt that it was almost over, so he took the eunuchs and palace maids to prepare to leave for the noon gate!
It has been a long time since Zhang Zhijie entered the palace, but there is still no news coming out, and the emperor has not sent anyone here, Li Dongyang and they have been kneeling here, and they can't help but think twice in their hearts, does the emperor really let them kneel here all the time and don't ask?
I have been kneeling for nearly two hours, half a day, and seeing that the sun is about to set in the west, many people are kneeling there and are almost unable to support it! Especially some elderly ministers, who are already crumbling, but fortunately, they grit their teeth and persevere!
Finally, there was a commotion from the palace, as if there were many people coming! Li Dongyang's heart chuckled, his first thought was not that the emperor was coming, but that the emperor was going to use tough measures, probably the court staff!
It is impossible for important ministers like scholars and scholars to be sceptered by the court, but Li Dongyang's heart is still tense for a while, very gloomy, hundreds of officials come to kneel and admonish, but they are all for the emperor, for the sake of the Ming Dynasty!
Could it be that the emperor is so patient with the court staff? How many people will be killed and how many will be maimed? As the head of the hundred officials, how can Li Dongyang not feel sad!
Li Dongyang was a little disheartened, but if the emperor really ordered the court staff, Li Dongyang would definitely enter the palace alone to persuade the emperor, and he would use his identity as the first assistant of the cabinet to admonish him! Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, it can be regarded as a big effort to do one's best, and I will go home to farm in the future!
Just when Li Dongyang was disheartened, the hundreds of officials who knelt down also felt the movement from the palace, and they were the same as Li Dongyang, and their first thought was that it was likely that the emperor was going to order the court staff, otherwise there would not be such a big movement!
Many people's faces were miserable, but they didn't expect that the emperor was not only indifferent to their kneeling advice, but also ordered the court staff! No one can say who will be sceptered, who will survive, who will be crippled! But they still knelt there in silence, trying to keep their backs as straight as possible!
