Zhu Youzhu squinted, angry and funny, who knew that Liu Chengfeng would answer like this, so he didn't know how to pick up the stubble for a while. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

He paused before he said: "This recital is quite light, and those more unceremonious recitals abound, and I want people to read this recital in public, just to ask, is this all what my courtiers think?" ”

Zhu Youzhu was undoubtedly angry, because at this moment, his shoulders were already trembling slightly.

Of course, these canons are passionate works, and the impeachment recitals will inevitably be exaggerated, and in order to convict the impeached person, this major sin, the two major sins, and so on, are all at your fingertips. Zhu Youzhu was angry, not because everyone attacked Liu Chengfeng, but because these people attacked the emperor, that is, himself.

In many of these books, in order to attack Liu Chengfeng, it is inevitable to attack what Liu Chengfeng did, Liu Chengfeng is the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and the most he can do is to raise a question, at most, that is to say, Liu Chengfeng refers to the deer as a horse, saying that he kills innocents indiscriminately, but after all, there is no evidence for this kind of thing, there is no evidence, even if what you say is the same as a flower, the palace will not accept it.

Therefore, almost a considerable part of the main direction of the book is only one, Liu Chengfeng colluded with the merchants, it is precisely because Liu Chengfeng colluded with the merchants and deceived the saints that the treasure building and the treasure firm came out, and the treasure building and the treasure firm seem to be indeed making profits for the country, but in fact, they are competing with the people, the dignified court, and actually competing with the people for profit, isn't this a joke?

There are many more evil consequences, for example, since the merchant, the status of the businessmen has improved a lot, so that the social atmosphere has suddenly deteriorated a lot, no one talks about benevolence, righteousness and morality, and now everyone is thinking about that little profit, and some restless people are even more reckless, in order to earn money, in order to raise their eyebrows, and become criminals.

People's hearts are lost, and the ministers are really whimpering and mourning in their eyes.

All in all, if you sum it up in one sentence, the so-called world now is richer than before on the surface, but it is contrary to the peaceful and prosperous times in the books of the saints, the emperor has worked hard for so long, and what he has created is not a prosperous era, but it is no different from the troubled times under the rule of those tyrants.

In recent years, the court has a lot of money, and the number of displaced people is gradually decreasing, and now there is almost no trace of a homeless person, Zhu Youzhu began to implement the school, so that people in the world can have books to read, and at the same time build a gallop road, so that businessmen and ordinary people can accumulate wealth and broaden their horizons. River embankments have also begun to be repaired in various places, and almost all of the water control regulations for the 13 rivers submitted by the Ministry of Industry have been approved.

I thought that what I had done, although there were also criticisms, but in the general direction there was nothing wrong, although I didn't dare to say anything compared with the three emperors and five emperors, but Zhu Youzhu thought that compared with Taizu and Chengzu, it didn't seem to be bad.

Some time ago, Zhu Youzhu heard from the people in Dongchang that Jingxian County, which relied on the Beijing Division, was originally quite poor and weak, and compared with other counties in Beijing, the people lived a lot of hardships, but in recent years, because of the peasant work, there has gradually improved, at least there is no need to worry about eating, that is, in the countryside, due to a large reduction in manpower, so that the squires are not allowed to give better treatment to the tenants, and many tenants used to grow a year's grain and can only eat half a year's rice at most, and after half a year, they can only rely on drinking porridge and digging some wild vegetables to survive. If you want to buy something, you have to ask the owner for some money, and the result is that the debt is more and more rolled over, and many of the debts are saved by grandfathers and fathers, and they will never be able to pay it off in their lifetime, and the donkey rolls, but now it is different, and if the squires do not feed the tenants, the tenants will flee to the city with their families, and they will not die of hunger in the city.

Zhu Youzhu listened to these descriptions, although I don't know whether Dongchang is exaggerated, but at least one thing is certain, this is a sense of achievement, in his opinion, the so-called peaceful and prosperous world, nothing more than the world is peaceful, the people have clothes and food, but now not only do not get the praise of the courtiers, but in the end what is a scolding.

Zhu Youzhang's anger can be imagined, this is the first time he feels that he is so alienated from these courtiers, he looked at these people indifferently, his face was pale, if these people do not distinguish between right and wrong, there is a more important reason that makes Zhu Youzhang angry. In these recitals, there are many people who demand that they value the readers.

What does that mean? This means that he, Zhu Youjiao, was not good enough for the scholars, and even abused them, so that they made such a voice of grievance. If Zhu Youzhu is Liu Bang, he likes to take off the hat of a Confucian to pee, and he will admit this tone, but he thinks that he has given many special care to scholars. In the early dynasties, the emperor summoned his ministers to speak and play from the inside of the left and right corridors. Some ministers lost their manners because of the slippery ground, Zhu Youzhu never asked about the crime, and he did not correct the mistakes in the notebook. Zhu Youzhu even clearly remembered that one winter, when he sat in the palace at night and felt that the weather was cold, he asked the ministers: "Do any officials have any officials on the way home from errands now?" He replied, "Yes." And he said, "What if it is so cold and dark, if the incorruptible and poor officials have no light to guide them on their way home?" So he passed down the holy decree and ordered that in the future, when the officials in Beijing returned at night, regardless of their position, they would all order the Pu army to carry the lantern.

Although these are just small things, in terms of major matters, Zhu Youzhu often gives orders to scholars, so that they can study with peace of mind, and orders local officials to take care of scholars from time to time, and give some relief to the poor at home. Zhu Youzhu thinks that compared with those ancestors, he can be regarded as extremely kind in his attitude towards readers. Who knew that in the end, it was such an evaluation.

The emperor is also a human being, and he also needs the efforts of others, things are not done well, you work hard, but things are done well, not only do you praise a few words but yin and yang, Zhu Youzhu has been an emperor all his life, diligent, hard-working, and complaining, but the achievements of more than ten years have been denied all at once, to tell the truth, when he saw these books, Zhu Youzhu wanted to kill people.

Zhu Youzhu finally spoke, he first knocked the table with his knuckles, and then said with an angry face: "My minister, is this all in mind? Are they all thoughts like what this book says? ”

Many ministers below were confused, but when they saw Zhu Youzhu shouting and asking, everyone naturally didn't dare to say anything, and said one after another: "Weichen is dead." ”

"Ten thousand deaths?" Zhu Youzhu sneered: "Yes, it's not a pity for you to die, the world is peaceful, but there are people who are not willing to be lonely, and there are people who want to make something out of nothing, do you really think that if I connive at you, you can be wild at will?" ”

This sentence can be regarded as very harsh, at least since Zhu Youzhu ascended the throne, he has never said such a cruel word, Liu Jian's face flashed a trace of astonishment, although he knew that those recitals would cause the emperor to be unhappy, but he never thought that it would make the emperor so displeased, at this time, he, the cabinet minister, had to stand up and speak, and said: "Your Majesty is angry, the king is worried about the humiliation of the ministers, Your Majesty is angry, the fault is not Your Majesty, nor is it in the minister, this must be the Cabinet's mistake, please punish Your Majesty." ”

The cabinet is a bridge of communication between the palace and the ministers, and it is reasonable to take matters on oneself.

What Liu Jian needs most now is to lower the emperor's anger first, and then discuss the matter of the Jubao Commercial Bank when he is calm, only in this way can he be more sure of winning the Jubao Commercial Bank.

Zhu Youzhu saw that Liu Jian looked sincerely frightened, and finally couldn't pull off his face, he snorted coldly and said, "It's not your fault, it's just that I am too generous, so that some people don't know what to do." He flicked his sleeves before he said: "I called everyone here today, one of them is that I want to ask you, what are your intentions when you say that the world is in a mess, and the society is in danger, but I want to know how bad my world is, so that you are so angry." As for the second, it's because of Yang Jian's recital, is what Yang Jian's recital said true? I've heard before that the firm did make some mistakes, but in any case, the merits outweighed the faults, but I never thought that it would be so corrupt. Which of you knows, come out and tell me, Yang Jian is not here? ”

As he spoke, he looked at the crowd, and Yang Jian, who was standing in the class, hurriedly stood up and said with a look of sincere fear: "Weichen is here." ”

Zhu Youzhu said with a little tiredness: "Is there any evidence for what you played in the book?" ”

The so-called things played, is the Jubao firm those bad deeds, to tell the truth, Yang Jian's book is naturally impossible to rely on some rumors alone, hearing that the emperor asked him for evidence, Yang Jian said proudly: "Your Majesty, there is evidence, Weichen has collected a lot, some are collected from the Ministry of Rites, some are about some dissatisfaction with some vassal kings, and some are collected from the firm, Weichen saw that the matter was big, so he specially ordered someone to verify, and now many people's statements and confessions, There are also some things copied by the Ministry of Rites in this account book, and I ask Your Majesty to look at them. ”

Yang Jian said, took out a rather thick book from his sleeve, and presented it to a eunuch of His Royal Highness, who took it and hurriedly put it on the desk of the imperial case.

Zhu Youzhu glanced at the book, but he didn't expect Yang Jian to do enough homework, and then, in front of everyone, he picked up the book and flipped through it.
