Chapter 295: Falling
The cold wind of early spring swirled on the willows on both sides of Taiping Street, which had just sprouted a trace of greenery, and the branches were blown to "rustle", mixed with the occasional mournful and piercing chirping of owls.
The night sky was also gray, and the moon was hiding behind leaden clouds, as if it were suppressing something.
In this era, most people have gone to bed at this time, but there are still some neighborhoods with faint lights, if it is not for the high threshold of the Zhumen guarded by the white jade lion, it must be a family with a solid family and a thief's special favor.
"Brother Guo, the situation is not quite right."
Surrounded by the surging and blind flow of people, looking at the brighter and brighter lights in the distance, the firewood cart uneasily pulled the sleeves of Guo Jin's silk cloth beside him and said.
God is pitiful, the president's law change affairs yamen was obstructed before it was established, and the two officials have been transferred out of the edict, and at this time, Guo Jin and Chai Che have become lonely souls and wild monsters and no one cares about them.
Guo Jin was anxious for a while, but he also wanted to cry without tears, this has been carried by the vast crowd to Taiping Street, and then go south, but it is the imperial city!
"Today, I just went back to Taixue to buy some prison books, how can I do this kind of thing?"
Guo Jin's complaints were drowned out in the waves of sound one after another.
"Eradicate the traitor Jiang Xinghuo!"
"I'm going to see Your Majesty in person!"
"The dynasty has been raising soldiers for thirty years, and today there is only death!"
Thousands of prisoners shouted slogans in indignation and rushed from their respective districts to the majestic imperial city.
In the crowd, there was no shortage of officials from the country, trying to control the chaos.
However, when a middle-aged man who looked like a professor stood up, his thin arms waving, it didn't help at all.
"Calm down!"
"What are you going to do?!"
The priest of the country panted and commanded several teaching assistants beside him: "Quick! Lead them to the other side, and don't really rush to the palace! ”
His order did not take effect, but instead caused a ripple commotion in the crowd, and many of the prisoners jumped out one after another, surrounding the professor.
"Professor Wang, how can you do this?"
A prisoner named Chu Daheng showed a vulture on his face and said.
"On weekdays, you taught us to be loyal to the king, but today there are traitors around Your Majesty, how can you allow him to be reckless and mislead the country?"
Listening to his incitement, the prisoner next to him also said.
"Professor Wang, please join us in knocking on the throne and make decisions for the people!"
"That's right! Kill the traitor! ”
Professor Wang's face turned red, he wanted to explain, he wanted to dissuade everyone, but he found that his lips trembled, and he was completely speechless.
Seeing the prisoners of the Guozi Prison pushing each other, a sense of infinite sadness suddenly rose in his heart.
When Emperor Taizu Gao, the law of Guozijian was strict, and the atmosphere became more and more corrupt when Jianwen was established, and now these prisoners do not know the severity, I am afraid that they will repeat the story of Zhao Lin The long rod with a human head hanging in front of Guozijian has not been pulled out yet.
"Professor Wang." In the chaos, suddenly a person grabbed his hand, and Professor Wang looked up to see that it was Guo Jin, a former student.
"Guo Jin? Didn't you go to Jinyiwei on an errand? Why did you come here today? ”
Ignoring the greetings, Guo Jin asked eagerly, "Professor Wang, do you know why there is a sudden chaos today?" ”
Seeing that he hesitated for a while, the firewood cart also held down Professor Wang, and reluctantly asked: "Don't hide it, I will serve in Jinyiwei, Professor Wang will say it, if there are clues, you may be able to avoid today's disaster!" ”
Professor Wang paused and sighed: "A misunderstanding was instigated by someone with a heart!" ”
The man's words were sloppy, but the two of them finally figured out what was going on.
Today, according to the usual practice, the cabinet sent the "Di Bao" to be distributed to the various yamen of the imperial court to the printing house of Guozijian for engraving, and the most eye-catching place naturally wrote the things that the emperor explained to Xie Jin.
Xie Jin's original title was "The rain has a heavenly principle, what is it?" According to the saying that the rain already has its heavenly principle, but where does it exist? How to understand it?
However, I don't know whether the craftsman in charge of the engraving or the prisoner intentionally or unintentionally did it can't be explored, in short, in the end, "has" was changed to "how".
The difference between one word is a thousand miles.
Things leaked out, and it was like a rod scale on the dung heap - over the dung!
The prisoners who saw it were angry, because "Is there any reason for the rain? What is the reason for rain? Where?
With a little connection, I will think of the tragic thing of the blood oath in the future, this is the traitor of the country who wants to deny the rain from the root, and excuse the anger of the sky and the resentment of the people in Jiangnan without rain in advance!
As a result, things became more and more intense, until they got out of control, although this is inseparable from the harsh treatment of prisoners during the Zhu Yuanzhang period, and they were often exiled from the army, punished and served as officials, shackled for life, and displayed to the public.
But now that the matter has come to this, it seems that there is no point in talking about it again.
The palace is already in sight.
——————
"National teacher, is it really okay?" Song Li, who had the courage to follow, couldn't help but ask suspiciously.
On the wide Taiping Street, the big cart pulled from the palace was horizontally formed into a barricade, and the eunuchs holding brooms and brooms looked at the crowd in the distance.
"It works!"
Jiang Xinghuo, who had a calm gaze, said categorically, and there seemed to be a calming magic on his body, which made the hearts of the surrounding eunuchs instantly feel steady.
Song Li didn't say anything anymore, but his heart was beating like a drum, his mouth was dry, and he tried his best to watch Jiang Xinghuo deal with it.
The sound in front of Taiping Street was like an angry wave one after another, one after another, as if just the scholar's angry rebuke could drown the barricade composed of more than 100 eunuchs.
"Where is the traitor Jiang Xinghuo?"
"Hugh is going to stop me from waiting! We are here for the survival of the country! ”
"We want to see Your Majesty!"
Looking at the vivid but distorted faces in front of him, Jiang Xinghuo slowly clenched his fists.
"Put."
At the sound of an order, the fireworks that were moved out of the palace behind him were ignited and instantly took off.
A deafening burst of fireworks rang out.
Huge fireworks of various colors bloom in the sky and scatter in the night, which is extremely gorgeous.
Fireworks lit up the sky above.
The street, which had been a little noisy on the ground, fell silent in an instant, and everyone looked up.
"What's that?"
"It seems to be...... The royal fireworks? ”
For a moment, the noise and noise disappeared.
Only a clear and quiet voice flowed slowly on Taiping Street like a calming stream: "Prisoners, please listen to me. ”
As the sound spread, the crowded Taiping Street was strangely quiet.
Everybody looked this way.
They want to know what the hell is going on.
I saw a young man standing on the big car at the intersection, his eyes looking around the crowd, his voice loud and convincing.
"In front of the palace is the palace, the loyal guard has been deployed behind Taiping Street, and Lei Chi crosses the line, then one wrong step, every step is wrong!"
"What do you want for today's events, you might as well push a few who can be counted and hoped, and I will do it."
At this time, the crowd of prisoners shouted.
"We want to see Your Majesty, what is it?"
"Get out of here, don't hurt your own life!"
People were clamoring for more, but for these, the young man standing in the middle of the road in the cart was calm and calm, and he was not affected in the slightest.
"I'm the 'traitor' Jiang Xinghuo you're looking for."
As soon as these words came out, the crowd fell silent instantly.
Everyone's expressions froze, and they looked incredulous.
This national teacher seems to be much younger than they imagined.
Many people still think that he is a demonic figure who clings to the emperor, but he thinks that he is a scholar who is about the same age as them, and he looks very elegant and has no shelf.
But the next moment, the crowd suddenly exploded.
I don't know who hid in the crowd and shouted.
"Ladies and gentlemen, traitors are in front of you, and you will get rid of traitors for the country, just today!"
Seeing that the crowd began to surge, I knew that once this was activated, everyone in front of me would be crushed into powder.
Song Li was sad in his heart: "It's over!" ”
The matter was defeated here, and Long Yan was furious, and if he couldn't tell the situation, he would think about the abyss that he didn't want to see the most, and in the rain of swords and blood, countless good people's heads rolled down.
Of course, the result is conceivable, the world is in an uproar, and the change of law ends without a problem.
I am afraid that this Dharma Reform School has not yet taken shape, and it will be uprooted from the roots.
Song Li can only rejoice that he has not fallen too deep. As for whether the young national teacher could control the surging crowd, Song Li had no expectations at all.
However, before the crowd could rush up first, Jiang Xinghuo waved his hand, and the plan was activated.
After all, Jiang Xinghuo also knows that if the people in the back push the people in front to form a crowd, don't say that it is this trick at that time, even if there are really fully armed soldiers with shields and guns and spears into a forest, I am afraid it will not be able to stop.
The eunuchs, holding brooms and mops, directly opened the lids of several large carts that lay horizontally in the middle of the road.
A foul smell came to their faces, and the eunuchs sent the things in hand and stirred them a few times, and then they carried large brooms and big mops stained with steaming "golden juice", and stood in a loose formation in a row, and approached forward.
This is to say, Zhu Yuanzhang is far-sighted, thinking that one day if there is a "Hou Jing Rebellion" in the Ming Dynasty, the children and grandchildren who defend the city should always have some necessary tools to defend the city, just in case, the dung and water in the palace are collected uniformly, once the palace is besieged, it can be used as the necessary "golden juice" for the ancient city to defend the city.
Sven is used to reading, and he pays the most attention to decency, and he may not have done it in cooking or raising chickens, let alone the scene of Sven sweeping the floor in front of him?
The crowd was constantly smoked and forced to retreat.
The big broom and big mop wrapped in pickled things are even more terrifying to them at this time than the real guns and spears!
This time is really good, after all, the crowd in front of you has not yet started to push from the back to the front, and the front retreats, and the back naturally stops.
Seeing that the prisoners of Guozijian were turned blue with disgust, Jiang Xinghuo sighed helplessly, and stuffed the two balls of cotton in his nostrils a little tighter.
It didn't smell good, of course he knew.
However, according to Jiang Xinghuo's understanding of this kind of action, all textbook-level countermeasures in his previous life were to adopt this "shock-block" method in order to avoid further escalation of the situation.
At the moment, there is no such equipment as gas, and the only way to use the original version of manure juice is used.
Seeing that the boiling emotions of the crowd were gradually cooled down, Jiang Xinghuo shouted loudly.
"Isn't there no dignity in the dynasty?"
"Isn't there a rule for Taixue?"
"Do you have to be this to speak?"
"Since you don't send someone over, you just stand here, Jiang Mou will go to you!"
After that, Jiang Xinghuo jumped out of the car, shook off Song Li who was blocking him, passed the eunuchs, and came to the crowd.
The moonlight pierced the lead cloud and staggered its reflection on him.
Jiang Xinghuo took his hands and said calmly.
"Jiang is responsible for changing the law, and if you have doubts or resentment, you can ask questions one by one."
"Jiang does things, he is above board, and he has nothing to say to people."
"Tonight, let's make it clear to your face, and the past will not wait."
