No matter what war, any power struggle, the final end must be ended with righteousness.

Scholars like to stand on the moral high ground and judge the progress.

At this moment, this eunuch stood on the moral high ground, criticized the scholars, and justified the great purge. No matter how far-fetched and unreasonable this name is, as long as you have the right to speak, it is enough.

Whoever has a big fist has the right to speak.

Simple, direct, violent, as ever!

Listening to the words of this eunuch, the ministers present were immediately a little stunned, and then angry.

These officials, kneeling outside the palace, one by one, demanded that the officials stop this meaningless purge, release the scholars, release the arrested officials, and let the world be peaceful again; and even punish some courtiers who deceive the king.

But now, it's good, he was detained and charged with colluding with Jin Guo.

This is the period of anti-Jinshi, and the crime of colluding with the Jin people is enough to be recovered.

Some courtiers who had ghosts in their hearts were even more angry and said: "Gelding, you dare to slander me!" As he spoke, he threw the plates and food in his hand on the eunuch's face, and suddenly the eunuch's face blossomed.

"Gelding!"

"This is slandering the reader!"

"Good, good, you're so bold. Sure enough, there is no king in the eyes, there is no king in the eyes! With that, the eunuch returned in a huff.

At this moment, some courtiers felt that something was wrong and felt that they had gone too far.

Thunder and rain. It's all Jun'en!

The courtiers knelt on the emperor, there was nothing in the first place, and the king sent snacks and mung bean soup. That's good. But now it's good, and he will smash the food and plates at the eunuch, isn't this a slap in the face of the emperor? The emperor's face, how can a small courtier be beaten!

At this time, Zhao Pu stood in the attic, looking at all this, his face turned blue. But in an instant, it became calm again.

"Sure enough, it needs to be cleaned, even if it is expanded."

Zhao Pu sighed in his heart. We must also admit that killing, slashing, and chopping people are sometimes the best means of deterrence.

It is said that during the French Revolution. The Jacobins failed. It's because there are too many kills; Lenin, however, shook his head and said that the Jacobins had failed only because they had killed too little. Later, during the October Revolution, millions of Russians were purged. The remnants outnumbered the Jacobins, and they were brutal to the extreme, but the October Revolution did not fail, but was as stable as a mountain.

The world says that the righteous help the unrighteous and the unrighteous help little. The triumph of good over evil, the rule of tyranny. It didn't end well.

In fact, many brutal regimes have been perpetuated; But many benevolent regimes have been destroyed.

At that time, Mongolia was extremely brutal, but it still swept across Europe and Asia, and finally perished, not because of brutality, but because of incompetence; The invasion of European colonists caused the death of 400 million Indians, and the brutality was extreme, but it still did not perish.

Brutality will not perish, brutality without principles will perish; Brutality is not the cause of decay, incompetence is the cause of decay.

Sometimes, brutality is the best means of suppressing disobedience.

Blind tolerance, blind calmness, will not be understood, will only make people feel weak, feel incompetent, feel that you are a bully, the most reckless have to inch in, step by step, the most reluctant has no way back.

A plan was brewing in his heart, Zhao Pu smiled, returned to his chair, and went to review the recital.

…………

The storm has come!

At this moment, Hangzhou has been deregulated, and people can walk on the streets and buy daily necessities, as usual. However, the soldiers of the Guards had not yet left, and were stationed in some important places, in some downtown areas, and everywhere you could see the soldiers of the Guards with clubs and ropes.

Although there are no murderous swords and no guns and bows and arrows, they are enough to deter the people in the city.

At this time, in some key positions, some officers of the Guards were giving speeches, and the content was already prescribed, mainly about the form of resistance to the Jin army in the north, the end of the Jin army, and some scholars colluded with the Jin army, and some scholars and scholars disrupted the country and spoke for the Jin people.

These officers, who were originally scholars, were mostly from Hangzhou, and most of their speeches at the moment were addressed to the villagers, and their words were also very convincing.

In the continuous speeches, the panic of the people of Hangzhou gradually disappeared, and was replaced by hatred and disgust for those scholars and scholars who betrayed their masters for glory.

The common people's view of the world is very simple, either good or evil, either good or bad, but they will not use dialectical analysis.

These soldiers of the Guards left a good impression on the people of Hangzhou, they entered the city to impose martial law, arrested traitors and thieves, did not harm the people, were strictly disciplined, and were considered to be benevolent and righteous teachers. And the teacher of benevolence and righteousness is naturally a bad person.

As a result, there was still a trace of sympathy for those arrested scholars, but gradually it disappeared.

Some are just disgust and pity.

The order of Hangzhou was gradually restored, and in the afternoon, it was restored to the appearance of heaven on earth; If it weren't for the big trouble yesterday, the world would still think it didn't happen.

…………

kneeling in front of the palace, the dozen or so courtiers who pleaded for mercy still left!

Zhao Pu still overestimated their physical strength and overestimated their determination, but it was normal to think about it.

This is an era of scholars, as the so-called everything is inferior, only reading is high. Many people read books, not only stupidly, but also read their bodies very poorly. The four bodies are not diligent, the grains are not divided, and the physical fitness is very poor. And these ministers, after becoming officials, pampered and pampered, pickled girls, drank and had fun, and their bodies had already been ruined.

Reluctantly in front of the hall, it's okay to kneel for a while, but after a long time, I can't hold on.

And this is the big summer, drinking sour plum soup, eating watermelon, fans and fans, and it is still hot. And these courtiers, kneeling in front of the palace for a long time, how can they not be tired!

When I was tired, I naturally had to leave.

It was only when the ministers got up to leave that the eunuch reappeared.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please stay?"

At this time, some courtiers looked at this eunuch with some joy.

When he first came, when he knelt down to plead, the emperor sent a parasol, mung bean soup, and snacks. Although there is no clear indication of concession, at least there is a hint of easing tendency, if it weren't for those courtiers who broke things and had already done everything, it would be as troublesome as it is now.

"Father-in-law, what's the matter?"

"Father-in-law, I don't know what Your Majesty wants to say?"

"Father-in-law, these scholars are young and ignorant, the emperor should let them go!"

"Ha Lu Ha!" The eunuch laughed lightly, there was no trace of embarrassment on his face, as if he had been thrown on his face, as if it had never happened, "Ladies and gentlemen, Your Majesty did not intend to punish these scholars in the first place, you came to plead and found the wrong place!" ”

The courtiers present immediately had a feeling that they had been tricked, and they begged for mercy in vain to get understanding, but they were told that it didn't exist at all!

"Father-in-law, why did you arrest nearly 5,000 scholars?"

"This is not an arrest, this is to help screen out the traitorous party, and if it is a traitor, it will continue to stay; It's not a traitor, after a few days, put it back! The eunuch said.

Some of the ministers' expressions changed, and they seemed to understand something.

The eunuch continued: "The emperor asked the miscellaneous family to tell you that the plea was in the wrong place. It is useless to kneel before the temple for as long as you kneel. It is better to seek others than to seek yourself, and the only ones who can really save these scholars are these scholars themselves. ”

"I rule the world with scholars, and scholars are the foundation of my dynasty. It's not easy for a reader to study hard! I have always been lenient to those who read, but leniency does not mean that even though it is, it does not mean that I can do whatever I want. Heaven and earth have their own laws, all things are not free, the emperor is still like this, and he is a scholar! ”

"This dynasty tolerates scholars, but it never indulges scholars, especially scholars, and betrays the country to curry favor with the golden. I can't read well, I can be forgiven, but I read too much. It's not right to sit on the side of the golden man's ass, speak for the golden man, and act as a lackey of the golden man! ”

"If you have leisure, you can go to the military camp to persuade them, persuade them to turn back, don't be a lackey of the golden people, and quickly apologize to the officials and hundreds of millions of subjects, otherwise he will die, no one in heaven and on earth can save him!"
