Zhu Yijun asked in a deep voice at this time: "Is there evidence!" ”

Li Zhe said: "No! ”

Zhu Yijun glanced at him: "That's a false accusation!" ”

"Your Majesty has a heavenly constitution in his mouth, life and death are all in one thought, why do you have to ask for evidence?"

"The criminal is a protégé of Shen Shixing, and his personal future and fate are controlled by him, and what he does is naturally based on his intentions."

"That's why, since the criminal minister is a great traitor, how can Your Majesty believe in the teacher of the criminal minister, is it that there is no one available in this dynasty, and he has to do it?"

Li Zhe sneered, and asked Zhu Yijun rhetorically.

After Zhu Yijun heard Li Zhe say this, he pondered for a moment, and then directly ordered: "Drag it down, cut it immediately!" ”

He was too lazy to speak.

Li Zhe immediately looked at Zhu Yijun with a puzzled expression.

"Your Majesty! I'd rather kill 3,000 by mistake than let one go! ”

"Is it because there is no empirical evidence that Shen Shixing, who has a teacher-student friendship with his ministers, can't he do it?!"

Li Zhe was indeed very puzzled, he didn't understand why the emperor only cut him alone, and asked Zhu Yijun loudly after being dragged down by the Jinyi guard.

Zhu Yijun glanced at him: "Change to a car crack!" ”

Li Zhe immediately shut his mouth.

It wasn't until Li Zhe was dragged down that Zhu Yijun turned his eyes on the ministers: "In the future, whether it is impeachment or admonishment, there must be solid evidence, and I will remember it clearly!" ”

"Yes!"

The ministers all said yes.

Zhu Yijun then looked at Jiang Zhongxiao: "Are you convinced?" ”

Jiang Zhongxiao smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, why do you want to ask again, Tianwei is great, how dare the minister disobey?" ”

"However, Your Majesty is not afraid of God's curse, it does not mean that the people of the world are not afraid! It is a fact that disasters occur frequently, and it is also a fact that people's hearts are uneasy, if Your Majesty can kill the ministers to appease the world, then the ministers can also be regarded as worthy of death, but if killing the ministers can not pacify the world, what is the point of killing the ministers? ”

Zhu Yijun didn't say much, but said: "Draw up the will, also give him the death penalty, and clearly tell the world, and then talk about the way of heaven, this is the case!" ”

Zhu Yijun was still too lazy to say anything more at this time, since there were ministers like Shen Shixing who thought that everything he did was right, and most of the ministers did not object, then he naturally didn't need to say anything.

Shen Shixing said yes at this time.

Jiang Zhongxiao looked at Shen Shixing at this time: "The public uses the theory of the mandate of heaven to make the Son of Heaven not afraid of the curse of heaven, isn't he worried that the future monarch will not know and take the evil way as the right path, and cause the society to overthrow?!" ”

Shen Shixing did not answer.

As a result, Jiang Zhongxiao was also dragged down.

Zhu Yijun glanced at Jiang Zhongxiao, who was dragged down: "The disaster is not a curse, but a test for me and Zhuqing, there is no mercy or unkindness in heaven, but its behavior has its own laws, what we have to do is to find its laws and combine them with reality to cure them." ”

Zhu Yijun said as he spoke: "The Ministry of Industry is still the book Pan Jitao! ”

"The minister is here!"

Pan Jitao stepped out.

"I ordered you to supervise the affairs of the world's rivers and water control, go to the major arid areas to survey the geography, open canals and control water, in order to solve the drought!"

"At the same time, according to the Cabinet Policy Department, the Qing should return farmland to forests and lakes in various places where soil erosion is serious, taking advantage of the fact that a large number of people have moved away and the land is vacant."

Zhu Yijun commanded.

"Commandment."

Pan Ji tamed back, and then breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said in his heart: "Your Majesty is really pragmatic, and finally did not get too entangled with the Qingliu people on what is the curse of heaven or not, and knows that quickly controlling the water, opening the canal, and repairing the geography are the first priority in controlling the drought!" ”

Soon after Shu Hua and Jiang Zhongxiao were escorted down, the eunuch brought poisoned wine: "Hurry up and drink it." ”

Shu Hua and Jiang Zhongxiao glanced at each other, and then almost synchronously picked up the poisonous wine, then drank it all, and then poured it on the ground.

Li Zhe was chained to five carriages in the afternoon of the same day after being escorted down, and at this time, he smiled helplessly:

"I thought that it would only be those rogues and Shen Shixing who died, but I didn't expect that I would be executed alone, the real organ was too smart, and in the end it fell short!"

"Is there really a god in heaven who presides over justice?"

Li Zhe couldn't help but look up to the sky and asked.

"Ahh

And he was torn apart by the car not long after asking.

……

"Gong's protégé Li Zhe is shameless and despicable, but the princess Zhang Tianli's explanation is attributed to the mouth of the Son of Heaven, is this really conducive to the long-term stability of the society?"

Li Zhe was torn apart, and Shu Hua and Jiang Zhongxiao were given to death, which made many ministers still feel sorry for them in their hearts.

After all, they are all scholars and doctors, and they don't think how hateful Li Zhe is to spoil the great politics of the imperial court, nor do they feel how hateful Jiang Zhongxiao, who talks about the way of heaven, and Shu Hua, who confuses the monarch with crooked reasoning, are hateful.

But what many ministers could not accept was Shen Shixing's assertion that the right to interpret the principles of heaven belonged to the Son of Heaven.

You must know that the greatest power of the scholar is the right to speak, the right to interpret the teachings of the saints, that is, the Taoism of Tianli, that is, to decide what to do is politically correct.

However, now Shen Shixing chose to blow himself up as the head of the civil official, and he didn't want this power anymore, but wanted to give this power directly to the Son of Heaven.

Originally, because Western missionaries had come to the Ming Dynasty and spread the Western model of separation of church and state to China, many scholars and doctors, such as Gu Xiancheng, had begun to feel that the Ming Dynasty should further separate church and state, and that there should be a king in the world, but there should be another leader in thought, so as to ensure that the king and the ruling can govern the country according to the correct ideology.

But now, Shen Shixing is doing this, in the eyes of many scholars, it is simply going backwards!

Therefore, Wang Jiaping, a cabinet scholar, couldn't help but ask about Shen Shixing first after the next dynasty.

Shen Shixing glanced at him, and said with an indifferent smile: "Who else can it be attributed to if it doesn't belong to the Son of Heaven?" ”

As he spoke, Shen Shixing asked: "Is it to the servant, or to the public, or to Uncle Gu, who is highly respected by scholars in the south?" ”

"But in the future, if the kings of later generations also worship the Tao, and even the absurdity is so absurd that any crooked doctrine and cult are regarded as the right way, and the people of the world are allowed to study and abandon Confucian scriptures, what will we do?"

Wang Jiaping asked.

"If it arises because of this, it is not a cult fallacy; If he dies because of this, he will be corrected by the King of Wisdom. ”

Shen Shi said.

Wang Jiaping stood up abruptly and asked Shen Shixing: "What about the ancestor's Jiangshan Sheji?" ”

Shen Shixing said: "Your Majesty's responsibility is not our responsibility!" ”

Wang Jiaping was silent for a long time, then sat back and asked, "Is it really the only way to do this?" ”

"What else else?"

"The public should understand that the community does come from the common people, because most of the people in the world are indeed common people; And most of the common people don't read, and they don't care about what kind of Son of Heaven is, so the people who care about what kind of Son of Heaven is are only a small number of people, and these few people advocate differently. ”

"It's better to listen to the Son of Heaven in everything, and be willing to be a follower, at least in official learning, only the Son of Heaven will obey his ideas."

Shen Shi said.

"Would it be better if the prince had been established early and the prince had been taught strictly?"

Wang Jiaping asked.
