Chapter 433: A loud slap
Hearing Zhengde's words, several envoys were stunned. Fishing law enforcement is actually just the wisdom of the ancients, in fact, it is similar to the routine of the immortals, but it has changed its name and formed a system.
The Korean envoys are fine, but for the other two uncivilized envoys, the truth is too profound, and they can only be stunned there, and they are extremely suspicious in their hearts, is it the wrong place, this is not Yanjing City, but the Mongolian king's tent, otherwise how could there be such an unreasonable emperor?
Phew, he obviously finished playing hooligan with the Jurchens, and then went to North Korea to play, and after eating, he ate the upper house and the next house, and there was no shame at all! The courtiers are much smarter than the Jurchens, and after listening to these words of mixed cultivation, for a while, the Taihe Hall was also full of emotion, and everyone was angry.
"Your Majesty Mingjian, this is clearly Xie Hong's clever quibbles, trying to reverse black and white, how can it be easily accepted?"
"A soldier is a murder weapon, and the saint can't talk about the sword and soldier lightly, how can he Xie Hong, dare not disobey the will of the court, and start a border affair?"
"Your Majesty's grace is vast, canonizing that Xie Hong as the champion marquis, looking forward to Yin Yin, but hoping that he can follow the example of the sages and guard my Ming frontier. But he didn't want to repay Jun'en, but he bullied the weak with the strong, and plundered the vassal and the like, where is the demeanor of the sages, and where is my great Ming Dynasty temperament? Your Majesty, please be clear! ”
The sound of attacks was everywhere, especially Tu Xun's voice, which quickly stood out in the noise.
He is so excited not simply because of his duties, although he is the secretary of the Criminal Department, but with Xie Hong's identity, he has to have at least three sessions to comply with the system, not to mention how can a single Criminal Department deal with Xie Hong?
It's just that the desperate plan is really a thorn in his heart. Although it was Liang Chu who made the plan at the beginning, the latter did not take credit, only said that this plan was initiated by Tu Xun, and his criminal department Shangshu also came from this merit.
Originally, Tu Xun was also quite proud, although there were many disgruntled low-grade officials in Beijing, but he was convinced that as long as the plan worked, those noises could not help him, and he was also quite grateful to Liang Chu who made the work.
But today, he found out that Liang Chu's concession was not humble, but a thief's slippery, Xie Hong's rebellion against the sky again directly broke Tu Xun's illusion, and the desperate plan would soon be reversed to his own household.
When the power is gained, the dissatisfaction of the low-level officials is naturally not threatening, but if it loses power, even if it is a book, it will be difficult to move an inch when the people below are resisting, Liu Yu, Cao Yuan and others are the best examples.
Hugh said that in the court, even if it is a Jiangnan scholar, it is not monolithic, and if some members have become a burden, they will not hesitate when they break their arms.
Therefore, Tu Xun is also desperate, he must make contributions to this court meeting, if he doesn't bring down Xie Hong, it will be him who will fall.
"Hahaha......" Facing the doubts of the Manchu Dynasty, Zhengde suddenly burst out laughing, startling everyone, even Tu Xun, who was in the most agitated mood and was making an impassioned speech, was stunned.
In the eyes of the outer court, Zhengde is a little out of tune, even if he was a scoundrel just now, he is more like a naughty boy, and it is rare to have such a crazy situation now, so all the ministers looked at Zhengde in disbelief, I don't know if the emperor was driven crazy.
It was only after a long time that Zhengde stopped laughing, with a sneering smile on the corner of his mouth, and asked proudly: "Can't the sword soldiers move without permission?" Then I ask you, what did the two ancestors of this dynasty rely on to establish the country? What was the Northern Expedition to Mongolia for? In the face of the Tartars, can the problem be solved by not using the sword? ”
"Your Majesty, the Tatars and Warats are unruly and have repeatedly violated the border, and they should be conquered, but Jianzhou is a submissive tribe, and Korea is a vassal country, so how can there be any reason to conquer? What's more, bullying the weak, how can it be the style of the Celestial Empire? Tu Xun took it as a matter of course, and said angrily in the face of Zhengde.
"Ha, I have been reading military books diligently recently, Sun Tzu has a saying in the Art of War, soldiers are like water, avoiding the strong and becoming weak, the way of using soldiers is like this, is it possible that Xie Hong wants to lead more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, go deep into the grassland to attack dozens of times the enemy with himself, this is called the style of the Celestial Empire? No, that's not the wind of the Celestial Empire, only idiots would do that. ”
Zhengde sneered: "It seems that my ministers don't read military books and don't understand the art of war, it just so happens that my Ivy League Academy will soon open another military academy, and then all Aiqing can go to further their studies, and then come to discuss military issues with me." ”
"Your Majesty!" Hearing these contemptuous words, the hearts of the people were even angrier. The teaching of that broken academy is all talented, and some are even children, not to mention teaching knowledge to the ministers, even if it is to talk to them face-to-face, it is a shame for the ministers, and the emperor is really too deceitful.
"Your Majesty's words are wrong!" Tu Xun was completely out of the way. Today, either it is to fight for a clear name, even if Zhishi has a chance to make a comeback; Either he ends up in a hurry, and in the end he is overwhelmed by the anger of the public, and he chooses the former, so he directly refutes Zhengde regardless of etiquette.
"Governing the people with the royal road inside, and Fuyuan with the holy road outside, is the way of governing the country that has been passed down in China for thousands of years. When the small foreign states heard that I was a great Ming Weide, they admired it, so they came to the court, if the court faced each other with swords and soldiers, wouldn't it chill the hearts of all the nations in the world? It's ......"
"Hmph, Tu Shangshu, how can you guarantee that those small states and small departments are sincerely obedient, instead of temporarily forbearance and waiting for the opportunity? Didn't the Jianzhou Jurchens rebel once when they were in the year of Chenghua? On the grounds of conquering the Jurchens, North Korea has also violated the border from time to time......"
Zhengde's face was solemn, and he asked in a cold voice: "Hmph, Tu Shangshu, how can you guarantee that they will be left to their own devices in the border town, and they will not raise tigers in the future?" ”
"The surname of the person is good, whether it is a grassland tribe or a vassal state, the people have a good heart, but they have not been educated, so there are all kinds of transgressions, as long as they send capable officials to the border towns and educate them with the way of the saints, they will be safe in the future."
The way of the outer saint and the inner king is what Confucian disciples talk about, and Tu Xun is also a talented person who has been named on the gold list, so of course he will not be stumped by this kind of question.
"So that's ......" Zhengde groaned slightly, raised his head and asked everyone: "Everyone, Aiqing, do you think so too?" ”
"Your Majesty, what Tu Shangshu said is true, which is in line with the way of a sage......" The ministers echoed.
"Your Majesty, we are waiting for the Heavenly Empire, so we ......" The envoy also hurriedly expressed his heart.
"Tu Shangshu, come forward." Zhengde smiled, and suddenly changed his words and summoned Tu Xun forward.
“…… Wechen obeyed. Tu Xun hesitated for a moment, and then took a few steps forward without hesitation, and arrived under the Danqi.
Of course, he hesitated because he was afraid that Zhengde would be rude, and now Zhengde is a little unusual, and he has refuted the other party several times, so it is not surprising that he has this concern.
But that hesitation was just a moment, and he immediately thought clearly, if Zhengde was really rough, then for him, it would be easier for him to be famous than the court staff or something, because bluntly said that he was beaten by the emperor himself, which is obviously the supreme glory!
The emperor was first forced to play a scoundrel, and then he started beating people, of course, he was a faint king; And the one who was beaten was obviously a straight and upright person.
Therefore, he walked up with righteousness and awe-inspiring, and there was even a little provocation in his eyes, with the posture that if you don't beat me, I won't be a hero.
"Very good," seeing him walk up, he was still very unconvinced, Zhengde nodded with satisfaction, and called leisurely: "San'er~"
"The slave is here." The three father-in-law bowed down to answer the order.
Zhengde didn't speak, but raised his hand slightly and pointed at Tu Xun.
Don't...... The courtiers could see clearly, and a terrible thought crossed their minds.
said that it was too late, and before everyone could turn around a thought, the third father-in-law was already like an arrow off the string, and an arrow step jumped down the danqi, and it was a slap in the face to the head.
"Smack!"
"You ......" I didn't expect to be beaten by a eunuch, or in the Jinluan Palace, Tu Xun's heart was like turning over the river and the sea, not to mention the mixture of anger and anger, he couldn't even feel the pain, he just stared at the third father-in-law with angry eyes, and he couldn't even speak for a while.
"What are you, hit!" The third father-in-law ignored Tu Xun's anger, and his backhand was another slap.
"Smack!"
The slap was loud, and the crisp sound echoed in the Taihe Palace, and everyone was stunned, no one expected such a thing to happen. The one who beat people was just a eunuch, but the one who was beaten was the secretary of the court, the court...... Is there an individual system?
After the astonishment, all the ministers were ashamed and angry, and no one cared about the rules of etiquette, and they rushed forward one after another, and some young ones even rolled up their sleeves.
It's not that there have been no violent incidents in the Jinluan Palace, there were in the Jingtai years, but that time it was the courtiers' hands, and everyone worked together to kill Ma Shun, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, but this time, it was Shangshu who was beaten, and it was a lowly eunuch who did it! How can they endure this?
Although the eunuch was instructed by the emperor, he could beat the book on the Jinluan Palace, which in itself was a chaotic fate, and the one who dared to execute it must be annihilated, and he deserved to be killed!
"Humph!"
The crowd was turbulent, but the third father-in-law, who bore the brunt of the attack, was still not afraid, and looked at everyone proudly, which made the courtiers even more angry. And there was an angry snort above the Danqi, realizing that the person who spoke out was the emperor, and seeing the appearance of the third prince without fear, everyone was shocked, and their pace slowed down subconsciously.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”
With a cold snort from Zhengde, there was a sudden loud noise around him, and there was a shaking under his feet, and those who had experience in ascending to the hall immediately reacted, this was the sound of smashing the ground with a stick, and it was a lot of people, far exceeding the scale that the ascending hall should be.
It's the Guards!
And then the next moment, you don't need to listen to it to know, the guards who were originally guarding around the main hall took a few steps forward, and someone even grabbed the side of the third prince, the situation is clear, and it is okay to fight in groups, but there are more people on the third father's side, and they are sharper.
The gentleman doesn't move his mouth, this is not empty talk, fighting is not the specialty of the ministers, and killing Ma Shun is because the other party has no helper, and he does not dare to do anything to the ministers. But the guards are different, as long as the emperor has an order, these crazy people dare to do anything.
Shocked by this suddenness, the courtiers immediately stopped, their minds racing, and they hurriedly devised countermeasures.
