At this time, the mansion of Shoufu Gao Hongtu has also been surrounded by Gu Lin and other members of the Duan Literature Society.

Gu Lin was even more arrogant and smashed the gate of the Gao Mansion and shouted, "Remove Ruan Dayue!" ”

Other members of the Duan Literature Club also shouted: "Recall Ruan Dayue!" ”

And Gao Hongtu could only hide in the house at this time and did not dare to go out.

Chen Shiding, the left attendant of the Ministry of Officials who came to Gaofu one step earlier, persuaded Gao Hongtu vigorously:

"Elder Ge, now you are presiding over the government, and you have the right to recommend the recall of the military department, so you have removed this Ruan Dayue from everyone's request, he was once a eunuch! You can't let a snob-like person like him take charge of the military department, so why not take this opportunity to remove Ruan Dayue on the grounds of public resentment. ”

Gao Hongtu, the first assistant of the cabinet, shook his head: "No, Ruan Dayue is appointed by His Majesty, and he cannot be dismissed at will, everything has to wait for His Majesty's holy judgment." ”

"Why can't you be dismissed, the members of the Duan Literature Society on the outside are exerting their strength, and we are admonishing Your Majesty together, Your Majesty can't help but obey!"

Chen Shiding, the left attendant of the ministry, roared loudly as he spoke.

Gao Hongtu glanced at this Chen Shiding and muttered: "We have already forced Your Majesty once, do you want to force Your Majesty again, Your Majesty has already explained to your own official, the war is imminent, everything is stable, and the matter of removing Ruan Dayue will be discussed later!" ”

"In the future, how long will it take to get there, the soldiers of the Great Qing Kingdom will cross the Yangtze River, but we still let traitors like Ruan Dayue fill the court, you listen to the voices outside, this is the heart of the people in the world!"

Chen Shiding shouted, while Gao Hongtu frowned, not knowing what to say for a while.

At this time, Gu Lin outside was still leading someone to bang the door of Gao Hongtu, the first assistant of the cabinet, with a piece of wood, and the member of the Duan Literature Club on the side couldn't help asking: "Brother Wenyu (Gu Lin's character Wenyu), will this Gao Shoufu come out to see us?" ”

"Will come out, Chen Butang will also persuade him to come out, even if he doesn't come out, we will force him to come out, when the time comes, we will say that he is the leader, His Majesty will only remove him Gao Shoufu, if I am Gao Hongtu, I would rather Ruan Dayue lose his official position than let himself lose his official position!"

Gu Lin sneered as he spoke.

At this time, Xia Yunyi was ordered to lead a battalion of Guards infantry to rush over first, among which Dong Zhining's first assistant officers and soldiers walked in the front.

And these members of the Duan Literature Club in front of the Shoufu Mansion were not afraid, many of them were scholars in Yingtianfu and even the surrounding state capitals, and they still thought that the soldiers were just ordinary Qiu Ba, so they still walked over to Dong Zhining and the others arrogantly.

"I'll go and see, what are they going to do?"

One of them, a member of the Duanwen Society named Jia Xun, said a word to Gu Lin, and then walked over with a dozen or so members of the club to Dong Zhining and other guards officers and soldiers.

Dong Zhining's side had already taken the team as a unit, and walked over with a musket in a neat step.

Because Zhu Youzhen, as the emperor, had not yet arrived, and there were more members of the Duanwen Society surrounding Gao Hongtu's mansion in front of him, and they were all scholars, some of the soldiers of the Guards were a little worried, and they didn't know whether to kill or not.

At this time, this person named Jia Xun walked over directly and slapped a team member in the face: "Bastard!" You are such reckless people, why did you come here, you can't rebel! ”

This team had just been transferred from the Fourth Army, and there was still an instinctive fear of the literati, so they forgot to fight back for a while.

Coincidentally, Zhu Youzhen rushed over at this time, snatched a Chongzhen 19-style flintlock pistol from Chen Zilong's hand and shot at the person named Jia Xun: "Who gave them the courage to dare to fight my pro-army!" Kill! ”

This person named Jia Xun intuitively felt a sharp pain in his chest, and when he looked up, he saw a blood hole appearing, and he himself was directly brought to the ground by inertia.

And the other students also shouted in disbelief: "You, you dare to kill, we are scholars!" You dare to insult the readers! ”

"Lao Tzu is also a scholar, but Lao Tzu is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, why are you stunned, Your Majesty has issued an order, these are all chaotic parties, kill me!"

Dong Zhining also stabbed a student at this time.

"Kill!"

The rest of the guards officers and soldiers could not stand the arrogance of these scholars for a long time, and directly stabbed the bayonets together.

In a matter of moments, dozens of troublemakers were killed on the spot.

At this time, the rest of the guards also surrounded the entire Gao Hongtu mansion one after another, and Zhu Youzhen also came closer: "Which of you is Gu Lin?" ”

Because dozens of students were killed on the spot by Dong Zhining's department of the Guards, the rest of the members of the Duan Literature Club almost stopped shouting at this moment, and they were all stunned, and Gu Lin himself hid resignedly, not daring to show his head again.

At this time, a Confucian named Chu Guozuo walked out quite boldly: "Your Majesty, the minister is the former Chu Guozuo of Jianning Zhi County, today there is a martial artist Dong Zhining and other dictatorships to disrupt the government, kill my Confucian scholars, please Your Majesty first kill such disrespectful Confucian martial artists, and then cure me and other crazy crimes!" ”

This Chu Guozuo obviously knows Dong Zhining.

As soon as he shouted this, the rest of the members of the Duan Literature Club also shouted.

"Please Your Majesty kill Dong Zhining and other disrespectful Confucianism first!"

"Please Your Majesty kill Dong Zhining and other disrespectful Confucianism first!"

……

Zhu Youzhen didn't expect that these members of the Duan Literature Society would threaten him first, and they would kill their own guards officers and soldiers.

Dong Zhining and other officers and men stood in front of Zhu Youzhen with firearms, and there were more than 5,000 officers and men of the Guards behind and around Zhu Youzhen.

These officers and men were all looking ahead with solemn faces at the moment, but Zhu Youzhen noticed that the faces of many officers and soldiers had already turned panicked and angry.

What they were alarmed about was that the Ming Emperor Zhu Youzhen would really listen to the words of these members of the Duan Literature Society, who sounded very righteous and awe-inspiring on the surface.

They were angry that they had fought bloodily for so long, and even if they were willing to give up their identity as scholars, they would still be despised by these literati and even threatened to kill them by their majesty.

Zhu Youzhen knew that if he killed Dong Zhining at this moment, with the loyalty of Xia Yunyi and other guards officers and soldiers to Zhu Youzhen, he might not do anything to himself as a king, but at least he would be chilled, and the morale of resisting Jiannu in the future would be greatly reduced.

Therefore, Zhu Youzhen clenched his fists, he knew that he could not listen to the words of these scholars.

At this time, Chu Guozuo, Gu Lin and the others knelt on the ground and coerced Zhu Youzhen to kill Dong Zhining and the other scholars, and they all looked at Zhu Youzhen as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

At this moment, Tu Guobao, who was hiding far away, laughed even more secretly: "Chongzhen, Chongzhen, look at what you do, if you don't kill Dong Zhining, it will chill the hearts of these soldiers, but if you kill the soldiers, it will chill the hearts of your guards sergeants." ”

Here, some students also asked Gu Lin: "Brother Wen Yu, will Your Majesty kill Dong Zhining and the others?" ”

"What do you say, do I have to rely on these hills in front of me to dare to kill my scholars, how can I not let them pay for their lives!"
