Chapter 66: The Outbreak of the Zuoshunmen Incident
It is worth mentioning that in the first year of orthodoxy, because of the opening of a sutra banquet in the Wenhua Palace, it was set up at Zuoshun Gate to eat here after the lecture on the scriptures. And in the Jingtai period, because of the orthodox civil fort change, the Wara Daju attacked the capital and surrounded the capital, under the needs of the war, in response to the call of the Yongle Emperor Tianzi to guard the country, to encourage the ministers, but also because the Fengtian Temple was damaged by natural disasters, so the Jingtai Emperor went to the noon dynasty in Zuoshunmen. This is the matter of Zuo Shunmen beating people to death, it is definitely not from Fengtian Temple to Zuo Shunmen, although the ministers are excited, but they are not so bloody and violent, and they do not have such good physical strength.
Now the system of the Ministry of Rites is also very convenient to beat people in Zuoshun Gate, which is carefully studied by Yang Shen, foreign court officials must go to Zuoshun Gate to enter and exit Donghua Gate, and the beginning of the Dynasty must wait in the Wenhua Palace, that is to say, the only way for foreign court officials to go to the Wenhua Hall is Zuoshun Gate.
Now everything is ready, only the east wind is owed. Yang Shenque's east wind is one thing, one thing that is enough for him to shout slogans and provoke incidents.
In fact, a few days before the incident, Lu Bing had doubts in his heart, because Yang Shen was always mysterious and secretive in those days, and he didn't come to Lu Mansion anymore, and occasionally saw Lu Bing on the way to the court, he always dodged and refused to speak.
asked why, what else did he say that foreign ministers and internal ministers should not have deep friendships, Lu Bing is now in the affairs of the prosecutor of the Inner Prosecutor, which belongs to the sequence of internal ministers, which makes people know that the relationship between Lu Dao and foreign ministers is too good and easy to cause criticism. Lu Bing has been holding back this for a long time, the relationship is good, why did Yang Shen suddenly change.
Later, Yang Shen once said to Lu Bing that the reason why he did this at that time was to not embarrass Lu Bing. is also afraid of implicating Lu Bing. He knew that Lu Bing was righteous and emotional, and if he told Lu Bing about the beating, Lu Bing would definitely be difficult to be a man inside and out. Tell Zhu Houxi that it is not righteous to Yang Shen. If you don't tell Zhu Houyu to let Yang Shen come, it is not righteous to Zhu Houxi. Lu Bing allows others to be unkind but not to be unrighteous himself, and belongs to a person who can be friends, even if Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houyu treats him like this, he still regards Zhu Houxi as a brother. So since it would make Lu Bing embarrassed, Yang Shen kept his mouth shut and didn't talk about it.
But Lu Bing was extremely smart, and Yang Shen was afraid that he would miss out when he was excited. Or let him find the clues, so he can't see them at all. In this way, it is good for everyone. No one is embarrassed. In case the incident happens a day later, Lu Bing will not be implicated, otherwise if it is really because of this, Lu Bing will be implicated. Yang Shen saw that innocent people had suffered because of himself. That is even worse than one's own sin, and the physical and mental torture cannot be repeated.
On the morning of July 12, the third year of Jiajing, Zhu Houxi ordered the eunuch to read a handwritten edict, in which he asked that three days later, that is, on the 16th, his father Xingxian Wang be called the emperor of the imperial examination, and his mother Xing Wang was called the empress dowager. This is a big problem, and it is easy to explain that Emperor Bensheng has Bensheng, which means that the king who originally gave birth to Emperor Jiajing. Now he is called Emperor. And it would be very inappropriate to call the emperor directly, so wouldn't it be a mess of the program. Messed up the etiquette law.
I can't bear it, I don't need to endure it anymore!
The same title of the emperor, the difference is very big, the emperor who does not mark the birth is the genuine emperor, so where is this emperor? When did he ascend the throne? It is not appropriate to put it before Zhu Houzhao, the emperor of Zhengde, because only when there is no Zhu Houzhao, or when the prince is extremely young, will he be allowed to offer the throne of the prince's brother and the emperor of Ming Xiaozong, so as to ascend the throne and sit in the palace to inherit the throne, which is obviously inappropriate. Zhu Houzhao is such a big living person, how can he say that if he doesn't have it, he will be gone, besides, he is the first emperor, if he messes with his name after his death, how can he cover the world's mouths, and what can he use to convince people with virtue to command the world.
Besides, Emperor Zhengde is the successor of his father and son, if King Xingxian is placed before Emperor Zhengde Zhu Houzhao cuts off the bloodline of Emperor Zhengde, then not only Jiajing is unorthodox, but he also wants to pull Emperor Zhengde unorthodox?
If it is placed after Emperor Zhengde, it will be even more ridiculous, how can there be a reason for an uncle to inherit his throne, so this is a mess of the Gangchang etiquette.
What's more, everyone has been fighting for this title for so many years, fighting for so many years, how many courtiers have returned to their hometowns for this old man, and even the three elders of the cabinet have left, you may say that Zhu Houxi deliberately shuffled the cards, but he can also change the title so casually, so wouldn't all these years be in vain, wouldn't these ministers also abdicate in vain? After paying a huge price, Zhu Houxi's unilateral overlord clause was unbearable for these ministers, but Yang Shen secretly rejoiced, because the time he was waiting for had come. The volcano is about to erupt, and no longer erupting in silence is perverted in silence
Everyone pointed the finger at Zhang Xuan and Gui Cao, it was these two villains who made such a ridiculous thing to the emperor. So Yang Shen began to organize everyone to intercept Zhang Xuan and Gui Cao, and wanted to beat them to death in Zuo Shunmen, and the young and middle-aged ministers responded one after another. How can Zhang Xuan be elusive, he always can't catch people, and although Gui Cao has encountered it once, but in the face of the group of ministers, Gui Cao ran away, and even used his strength to eat. Although Yang Shen practiced for a few days, because he was far away from Gui Cao at that time, he didn't catch up in the end.
Gui Cao and Zhang Xuan were a little scared, at this moment, one person covered the two of them at the behest of the emperor, in fact, this person had been covering them before, but the two of them didn't notice it. This person is Guo Xun, the Marquis of Wuding, that Zhang Xuan told Lu Bing. Guo Xun's ancestor is Guo Ying, the founder of the country who accompanied Emperor Taizu Gao Zhu Yuanzhang to fight the country. But this is all the old Huang calendar, and although Guo Xun is now the Marquis of Wuding, his power is not small, and Guo Xun is in control of the forbidden army at this time.
Now the ministers are helpless, dare to fight and kill near Zuoshun Gate, and if they are in a hurry, they will not be able to beat outside Zuoshun Gate, and if they are killed, it will be the same if they are killed. However, no one rushed to the home of the commander of the forbidden army to beat people, and others did not dare, even Yang Shen, who had some tendons. If you really want to go there and beat people, you will definitely steal chickens and rice.
On the fifteenth day of July, after the morning court, everyone was discussing countermeasures, because if there was no way, the title mentioned by the emperor would be implemented tomorrow, which the ministers could not bear. They feel that this is a shameful face. As a minister of this era, allowing such a thing to happen is an insult to personality and will make future generations unable to hold their heads up. will question why the ancestors did not stand up and speak at that time, accusing the emperor of doing something wrong.
Yang Shen wrote a letter, which said that we are bachelors who believe in Cheng Zhu's science, and Zhang Xuan Guicao is just a villain, and the emperor cannot be trusted.
If this letter worked, it would not have been so fierce before.
Yang Shen stood among the ministers. Raise your arms and shout: "The country has raised soldiers for one hundred and fifty years, and it is today. "The meaning is clear. The country has raised us for so many years, and we eat the court for the world, the court, not the emperor. We must dare to fight against the evil forces. To uphold justice and morality in our hearts, today is the time for us to fight to the death.
So, under the encouragement of Yang Shen, the young Hanlin stopped most of the ministers who had retired from the court, and Yang Shen said: "Forever admire, in this move, there are those who do not fight together." As soon as these words came out, everyone had to be dragged into the water. Even some of the old ministers, who were trembling in the last early dynasty and are now exhausted, have to follow. The reason is simple. Yang Shen said, this is a big event that will last for eternity, if anyone doesn't work hard, everyone will beat him up now.
Lu Bing teased Yang Shen afterwards and said that he would definitely be a triad boss or national leader in a few hundred years, which was too incendiary and threatening, and people couldn't leave it if they wanted to.
Someone asked Yang Shen what he wanted to do, and Yang Shen shouted righteously: "Let's go to Zuoshunmen willingly, if the minister comes, we will kill him, and if the minister doesn't come, we will wait for the emperor to give us justice." Yang Shen wrapped everyone in a mighty march towards Zuo Shunmen, they knelt down in Zuo Shunmen, and began to cry and start to make trouble, as if mourning someone's family, for a while the miasma was chaotic.
Among them, there are five of the six books, as well as the six squires, Dali Temple Zhengqing Shaoqing, the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Inspectorate, the Hanlin Bachelor, the Zhan Shifu, the six departments to the matter, the thirteen supervising the imperial history, in short, a total of more than 200 people. It can be said that most of the civil officials in the capital came, and everyone gathered at Zuoshunmen, crying and protesting.
Zhu Houxi's anger is chaotic, if it is said that Yang Tinghe was playing ghosts before, what is it now, could it be that he is not subservient. Soon Zhu Houxi was not angry again, no, it was still Yang Tinghe who was playing ghosts, but he was the mastermind behind the scenes, and it was Yang Tinghe's son Yang Shen who came out to do things on the surface. Okay, okay, okay, don't you want to make trouble, then make trouble, see how long you can kneel.
As a result, Zhu Houxi really underestimated the patience and kneeling skills of the ministers, and the ministers knelt down from noon to noon, that is, from morning to noon, this kind of perseverance and endurance is really admirable. Zhu Houxi's ears were noisy, and the people who sent him said that no one left every time they returned.
Zhu Houxi was a little breathless, and began to ask the eunuch of the celebrant to urge the ministers to leave, but the ministers were unmoved, just kneeling. After the first edict was issued, it was useless, and the second edict was still useless, Zhu Houxi understood that if he didn't express his attitude today, this matter was not over.
At this time, the ministers were even more irritable, crying so much that their voices were hoarse but still crying, some excited people began to beat the palace gate, and more people began to shout Emperor Taizu Gao and Emperor Hongzhi, let them show their spirits to see if Da Ming is or not, what happened to Da Ming?
At this time, Lu Bing was outside the palace, but he suddenly got an order to return to the palace, Lu Bing still wondered in his heart, he was not on duty today, what else could he do in such an idle position, but when he came to Zuo Shun's door, he saw this earth-shattering scene.
Lu Bing's heart sank, thinking that this was bad, he knew that Zhu Houxi's temper was very evil, and the more he did, the worse things would go. Looking at these people again, it is obvious that the leader is Yang Shen, and he finally understands what Yang Shen is abnormal in the past few days. Lu Bing didn't think about whether Yang Shen didn't believe in him or because of some other reason, so he didn't tell himself in advance, or he became estranged from himself, and the most important thing at this moment was to hurry up and face the saint.
Lu Bing hadn't seen Emperor Zhu Houxi for a long time, and this time the emperor summoned Long Yan to be furious, and he only thought of himself at a critical moment. But this is not the case, to Lu Bing's surprise, he is not the only one who listens to the order in Fengtian Palace, and Emperor Zhu Houxi did not ask Lu Bing to discuss at all, but asked him to carry it out.
"Jin Yiwei, arrest all the ministers to me, record them, and put them all in prison for me!"
As soon as this order came out, everyone was shocked, not only because the incident involved too widely, but also because the doctor could not be punished since ancient times. So Jin Yiwei rushed out of the gang and dragged everyone into prison, Lu Bing wanted to say something, but Zhu Houxi glared at him. Lu Bingzhi said that his words against Zhu Houxi at this time were tantamount to adding fuel to the fire, so he didn't say anything and turned away, standing aside and watching the Jinyi guard in charge of the Ouchi guard arrest people.
At this time, Zhu Houxi, who was a little angry in his heart, reflected, I am afraid that I will leave a stench for 10,000 years, and I have beaten so many ministers, and only the faint monarch can do it in history, but everyone has already been arrested, and it is too late to release it again, so I simply do not do it and do it to the end.
