Zhu Lin did not kneel, but asked in a stunned manner: "The minister has no eyes and no king, why does the saint speak like this, what is the crime of the minister!"

"Bold Zhu Lin, Holy Lord! The minister participated in Zhu Lin's three crimes, and the face of the monarch did not kneel when he replied? Second, on the day of going to the temple, he wore white filial piety. Hindering the Holy Eye, this is the second great sin. Third, standing in the court without thanking the Holy Grace, a great crime of disrespect! Go to the palace with a sword, and if you don't worship the king, you will follow the example of Dong Zhuohu of the Three Kingdoms?" Lord Wang jumped out of the queue of Wenchen and shouted loudly at Zhu Lin.

Zhu Lin saw that it was Lord Wang, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he said to Lord Wang: "Yo! Isn't this Lord Wang? Lord Wang, who was scared to pee his pants that day." What's the matter, I didn't 'educate' the Japanese people that day, but today I came to educate Lord Ben, didn't I? Say that I went to the temple with my sword, did I bring a sword? I saw that the king did not worship, and everyone could see it clearly. Even the saints can see it. To say that I follow Dong Zhuo is simply a big joke in the world. I don't think it's that I'm effectively imitating Dong Zhuo's intentions, but that you have the heart to refer to the deer as a horse! Lord Wang, I killed a few murderous Japanese people that day, and those who were there also accused me and others, let me ask you? Could it be that those Japanese people gave you gifts, or did you collude with the Japanese people? Let you defend those Japanese people and rebel ministers and thieves so much?" Zhu Lin pointed at Lord Wang and said, and as he spoke, he secretly glanced at the emperor sitting on the dragon chair, and saw that the emperor did not react. I just wanted to take two more steps in front of Lord Wang. But the ministers next to him burst into laughter. The fact that Lord Wang was scared by Zhu Lin to pee his pants on the city wall in the first few days has already spread throughout the court and become a joke. It's just that the king doesn't know yet. Lord Wang was extremely embarrassed by what Zhu Lin said, and opened his mouth just to refute. The emperor said leisurely on the dragon chair: "This is a court meeting, not a vegetable market." Didn't I come to listen to your quarrel?" "Zhu Lin, I asked you, did the court inform you today?"

"Yes!" As soon as Zhu Lin finished answering, the emperor slapped the dragon chair heavily and stood up and shouted at Zhu Lin: "Since I have notified you to come to today's court meeting, how do you explain the white cloth strip you wear on your head? Do you look forward to my death, or do you look forward to the death of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty? I have never treated you badly, why are you so cursed?" This question really made Zhu Lin a little embarrassed. The old grandfather looked at Zhu Lin worriedly. Zhu Lin lifted his python robe, knelt on the ground and said: "The minister wears a white cloth for the brothers of the Kuang Fujun who died in battle, Dai Xiao, and for the brothers who died in the battle of Jinling Wharf and the people who died in the battle. In the battle of Jinling Wharf, 713 brothers were killed and 1,927 civilians were killed. This is only the case where the body can be found. I don't know how many people can't find the body. Holy Lord, is it wrong for the minister to wear filial piety for these people?"

After listening to what Zhu Lin said, the emperor sat down and pondered for a while. Raising his eyes to look at the Wenchen queue, soon Lord Yin Liu of Tianfu and a squire from the household department stood up in the Wenchen queue. The squire knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the Emperor is not bad at all, a total of 1,927 civilians were killed, and the total number of merchant coolies registered at the Jinling Wharf was 14,246. According to the calculations of the door, there should have been no less than 8,000 people who spent the night at the Jinling Wharf that day. In other words, in addition to the more than 4,000 people who fled in, nearly 2,000 people could not find their bodies. ”

Lord Liu then said: "The inn, the wine shop, the teahouse, and the wharf, except for the two houses where the tax department is located, which are still intact, the rest have all been burned down. The fleets and boats of the merchant ships on the river also suffered heavy losses, with a total estimated loss of about 64 million taels of silver. ”

At this time, another official jumped out, which also proved that what Zhu Lin said was true. Yesterday, Zhu Lin personally supported the coffins of the fallen soldiers has spread throughout the capital, except for some scholars, whether it is a peddler or a wealthy businessman, they all give a thumbs up. A third of the people of the city organized themselves to pay tribute to the fallen soldiers. The people who fled into the city from the Jinling Wharf, regardless of whether they were rich or poor, took the old and the young with their families to pay respects. The grandeur of the scene and the touching of the scene have never been seen since the founding of the country. In addition, the looted and burned goods at the Jinling Wharf have been roughly counted, and the goods alone have lost nearly 30 million taels. As a result of this catastrophe, most of the more than 1,000 merchants at Jinling Wharf have gone bankrupt, and those who are still alive have lost their livelihoods. Moreover, the rebels and thieves plundered the boats docked at the docks, even the men and the boats. This loss is not taken into account. After listening to the official's explanations and complaints. The emperor bowed his head in the dragon chair and was silent. Just silently thinking about something there. It was half an hour long. The emperor raised his head and said, "This is the end of this problem! It is also human nature to wear filial piety for brothers. If I don't allow it, wouldn't I make the world laugh at me for not being polite? But—Zhu Lin, can you explain, what's the matter with your refusal to accept the holy decree I made yesterday?"

"My Emperor Shengming! According to the rules, the ministers must wear Qi 7749 Heavenly Filial Piety for their brothers. If it insults the Holy Eye, please forgive me. Saints, people say that the dead are greater, and the living do not block the way of the dead. However, yesterday, several angels tried in vain to stop the funeral procession and forcibly proclaim the holy decree. In desperation, he had no choice but to use force. Please forgive me for this. Since the minister did not return to the camp yesterday, but went home directly, he was so tired that he fainted when he arrived at home. Ignore the matter. The sin of refusing to accept the holy decree will be confessed! Please also ask the Holy God to punish you!" Zhu Lin kowtowed and said.

"This!" the Emperor was about to speak, but swallowed back. I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the people to use this sentence to punish Zhu Lin in front of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty! The emperor glanced at Li Ying. Li Ying lowered his head with shame on his face. The Emperor shook his head, just about to speak. Cen Ge Lao stood up and said, "Minister, Cen Wenyan Qi Song!" "Quasi!" the emperor said.

"Holy Lord, this refusal to accept the holy decree is a great crime of rebellion, according to the law, the family should be raided and the three clans should be destroyed, if you do not punish the mighty Hou, I am afraid it will be difficult to calm the mouth of the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty. And he is proud of his achievements, wearing filial piety clothes to enter and exit the court. Degrading royal decency. Remembering that the mighty marquis had a meritorious role in quelling the rebellion, the ministers asked for the removal of all the official positions and titles of the mighty marquis, and exiled him for three thousand miles. ”

"No!" the old grandfather stood up and said: "Qi Song my emperor, this rebellion of the rebels is all thanks to Wei Wuhou leading the Kuang Fu army to quell the rebellion, which is a great achievement. And the mighty Hou has not crossed from beginning to end. Loyalty is evident. Now, if the saint kills meritorious officials, won't it make the soldiers of the world chill. And the mighty wait for Dai Xiao, it is not a personal relationship. It's out of public interest. It is for the sake of those people and brothers who died to wear filial piety. Lord Cen, you are benevolent, righteous, courteous, and wise every day. My father would like to ask you, is it benevolent to wear filial piety for the people who have died in the war, and is it righteous to wear filial piety for the brothers who died in battle? If so, the heart of benevolence and righteousness can inspire the sun and the moon. Although the mighty and worthy of the court Dai Xiao really shouldn't be, it is an insult to the court and the dignity of the saint. But Lord Cen, have you ever seen someone who wears filial piety and doesn't wear it halfway? If your son wears filial piety for you and wears it halfway through, because he wants to enter the hall, what will you think? The refusal to accept the holy decree is also for a reason, not out of the original intention of might? Shengshang, for the sake of Weiwu Hou's great merit to the court and loyalty to the Sheng, I also ask the Shengshang to forgive Weiwuhou. Treat the guilty and make meritorious contributions. After speaking, Grandpa Guo slowly knelt down.

"Ministers, please forgive the emperor for his life!" All the generals knelt down with the grandfather of the country, and pleaded loudly to Zhu Lin.

"Hugh wants to say anything else, entering and leaving the court to wear filial piety, insulting the holy eye, refusing to accept the holy decree, which is a big sin. Although it has not been transgressed, but the emperor's honor guard is used on the battlefield, what is it if it is not overstepping? Cen Ge Lao also knelt down, and Wen Chen also knelt down with Hulala. While kowtowing, he shouted loudly to cure Zhu Lin's crime. The emperor half-squinted on the dragon chair and looked at the kneeling Manchu Dynasty civil and military, and Zhu Lin, who was still kneeling there in the middle of the queue. The corners of his mouth lifted and he smiled slightly. Said slowly: "Counterinsurgency is meritorious. However, it is a great sin to enter the palace to wear filial piety and refuse to accept the holy decree. Zhu Lin, you have given me another problem? Punish you, it is difficult to appease the heart of the generals, if you are not punished, it is difficult to appease the people of Wenchen. You say to yourself, 'What do you want me to do?'

Zhu Lin knelt on the ground and said: "The minister is guilty! The crime deserves death! Please also ask the Holy God to punish him!"

"That's it! I will keep your title and fame, and the militia will keep it! The rest will be removed! You will be fined for three years! Zhu Lin, what do you think? What do the secretaries think?"

"Thank you, Emperor Longen!" Zhu Lin thanked. "Holy Wisdom!" shouted the military general Wenchen.

"Zhu Lin, stand in the queue of generals!" the emperor said.

"Emperor Xie!" Zhu Lin stood up and walked towards the position near the back of the military general queue. Stand at the very rearmost point. Take one more step, and you will go out of the temple gate. Zhu Lin was silent there, with his head down, and he didn't know what to think again?

"Minister, there is a play!" "Quasi!" "Shengshang! Since Wei Wuhou is no longer the commander of the Kuang Fu Army, the army cannot be left without a commander for a day! Lord Wang came out and said.

The emperor glanced at Zhu Lin, who was standing in the corner, and said, "Let's discuss this later! Zhu Lin will lead it for the time being!" Lord Wang silently returned to the train.

"Minister, there is a book!" came out. "Quasi!" "Shengshang, Li Zhenghua and Li Zhengwei are relatives in Enke's list today, and now Li Zhengwei usurped Liu Siming to rebel, dare to ask how to handle this Li Zhenghua list, and ask the saint to show you." ”

"Get rid of all Li Zhenghua's fame! The men of the Li family were filled into the army, and the women were filled into the teaching department. Meng Liangchen was replaced. Tanhua was replaced by fourth place. Liu Siming! Spare your life! Don't raid your home, just dismiss your post and investigate and deal with it! Li Zhengwei plotted rebellion and rebelled, and raided his house to exterminate the three clans!" said the emperor.
