Chapter 391: Taimiao Pleads (Medium)
Qin Kan's idea of lacking morality is not only yin, it is simply fatal.
Since the death of Emperor Hongzhi, Zhu Houzhao has always taken the word family affection very seriously, when the ministers make trouble is not good, they have to embarrass the entire royal family at the birthday ceremony of the old queen mother, and Zhu Houzhao's revenge will follow.
At this moment, kneeling in the east hall of the Taimiao, the ministers also understood Zhu Houzhao's revenge.
What "monarchs and ministers co-govern", what "share weal and woe", what "follow the good advice", all are! Just set the stage for this moment.
On the spot, many ministers looked bad, and many of them raised their eyebrows angrily and opened their mouths, but they found that they had nothing to say.
What can be said? Said that His Majesty should not ask for guilt in the temple? They asked for it in unison. Said that His Majesty should not forcibly tie up the ministers and fast? The co-governance of monarchs and ministers, sharing weal and woe, is also what they talk about all day long......
Even if a few starve to death in the past ten days, I'm afraid I can't blame His Majesty for it.
The atmosphere in the east hall of the Taimiao, which suppressed anger and grievances, was very silent.
The plea of guilt began strangely in such an atmosphere.
The ministers all had calm and solemn faces, but Qin Kanzhi said that at least half of them wanted to slap themselves in the face.
The end of the cheap, the emperor is in a hurry, who can please him? The old lady's words are right, in this world, isn't her surname Zhu?

The first day passed peacefully, and the ministers knelt on the futon without saying a word. Those who kneel and their knees are numb, they can stand up and move their legs and feet on the spot, and then continue to kneel, and no one will be impeached for disrespecting their ancestors, after all, the blood in people's legs is not smooth for a long time, which will cause people to be disabled.
When night falls, the light in the empty hall gradually darkens, and immediately a little eunuch walks in and hangs a delicate and gorgeous palace lamp on the carved dragon jade pillar above the main hall with a long pole, and the hall is instantly full of brilliance, bright as day.
There was a rumbling sound of my stomach. One after another.
The ministers' old faces turned into a mess.
Early in the morning, he entered the palace to congratulate the old queen mother on her birthday. Then there is a hard struggle against the faint king, and until now it is dark, there has not been a grain of rice......
Before the first day was over, everyone couldn't stand it,...... This faint king won't really let us starve to death, right?
Zhu Houzhao, Qin Kan and Liu Jin knelt with their backs to the minister. I heard a burst of cooing behind me that couldn't be concealed. The corners of the trio's mouths hooked up into a gloating smile.
After a cup of tea. Several small eunuchs in the imperial dining room carried several large barrels into the hall. The bucket was filled with clear water, real clear water, collected from Yuquan Mountain behind the palace. Without a hint of oil.
The little eunuch held a stack of bowls in his hand, and the cat bent his waist and sent one when he saw someone, and one when he saw someone......
The ministers held the empty bowls helplessly, and then watched the little eunuch as if feeding a pig, scooping up a scoop of water with a scoop of water, and filling the bowls of the ministers in turn.
Many ministers didn't care about their manners, and they were really hungry, and they didn't care if they were clear or not, so they picked up the bowl and drank it dry, and then stared at the little eunuch pitifully.
To everyone's disappointment, there is also a quota for clear water, only three bowls a day, no more, no less, and the little eunuch carrying a large bucket of water completely ignores the eyes of the ministers, and sends it all the way.
Finally sent to Zhu Houzhao and the other three people, the little eunuch put down the bucket first, flatteringly kowtowed to Zhu Houzhao, another little eunuch took a white background blue and white carved dragon carved phoenix exquisite tribute porcelain bowl, to Zhu Houzhao full of a bowl of water, the water scoop slid down the bottom of the barrel, the little eunuch's hands hung down, magically slipped out of his wide sleeve half a greasy roast chicken, the other sleeve is three pieces of green fresh osmanthus cake, because Zhu Houzhao's back blocked, no one noticed the eunuch's small movements, The roast chicken and osmanthus cake fell smoothly into Zhu Houzhao's hands.
Qin Kan and Liu Jin were not hungry, and the other two little eunuchs who sent water did the same, and skillfully put the exquisite food into Qin Kan and Liu Jin's hands......
The three of them knelt in the front row with their backs to the ministers, broke the food bit by bit, and then fed it into their mouths without a trace, and in this way they had a full meal on their backs.
After eating, he drank all the water in front of the futon, and Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but open his mouth and burp......
In the quiet hall, the huge belching voice echoed slowly, not only the ministers behind him, but even Zhu Houzhao and the three of them.
Qin Kan reacted the fastest, hurriedly turned sideways and knelt in front of Zhu Houzhao, and said bitterly: "Your Majesty, you are so hungry that you are burping, Your Majesty, respecting the heavens and the earth and the Dharma Ancestor must be sincere, and no matter how hungry Your Majesty is, you must hold on!" ”
After Zhu Houzhao was stunned, he also nodded quickly: "I ...... Hold on! ”
The ministers looked left and right from afar, but they couldn't see the flaws, so they said in unison: "Your Majesty is benevolent, virtuous, filial piety, and sincerity, and the world is very fortun......ate, and the society is very fortunate."
The words are beautiful, but they are sparse and weak.
The lives of the ministers are not as good as those of Zhu Houzhao, and they have only poured a bowl of water at this point, and they are already a little dizzy from hunger.
Thinking that there are still nine days to spend hungry in the future, everyone can't help but feel sad, and a few sobbing voices came from the crowd at some point.
When I entered this temple today, I really don't know if there is any life to come out......

Facing the portrait of the ancestor and the tablet in the front row, Zhu Houzhao's figure did not move, but the corners of his mouth opened a big smile, unable to hide the taste of schadenfreude, and his eyes showed a look of excitement that he had not seen for a long time.
The days passed too dullly, and Emperor Zhengde finally found something to do. In order to achieve the goal of ruthlessly rectifying the ministers, he is willing to spend ten days with the ministers, and it doesn't matter if it takes ten days, provided that the ministers are still alive after ten days.
"Liu Jin, the roast chicken is too oily today, I don't like it." Zhu Houzhao said as low as a mosquito.
Liu Jin was stunned and hurriedly apologized: "It's the old slave who is not thoughtful, and the old slave is guilty." ”
"Tomorrow's breakfast, let's have a few pieces of crispy pork steamed buns, with some small pickles, remember to be soft, chew silently, don't let the minister hear."
"Yes."
"What about lunch, I want to be lighter, stewed radish with big bones and sticks, remember to stew it a little bit, it will melt in your mouth, it is delicious. Qin Kan, what do you have for lunch? ”
"Your Majesty, the minister still thinks the roast chicken is good......"
"Okay, Liu Jin, Ming'er will bring roast chicken to Qin Kan for lunch."
“…… Be. ”
"Where's dinner? Qin Kan, what do you have for dinner? ”
“…… Chen, still eat roast chicken. ”
"You are a special breeder, no wonder I have three generations of hereditary mighty generals...... Alas! ”
The hungry ministers in the hall closed their eyes and recuperated, but the three people in the front row stumbled to set tomorrow's recipe. (To be continued.) )
