Chapter 467: Anger from the Kong Family!
Zhu Gaoxian's reputation and ability to fight well have long been spread all over the world.
Now that he has swept through Mobei and defeated the Tatars and Warats, his prestige has reached a peak!
Between the government and the opposition of the Ming Dynasty, almost everyone knows and knows that this Emperor Hongxi, who has just ascended the throne, is an out-and-out emperor immediately, who fought in the north and south, attacked and destroyed the enemy country, and never had any defeat!
No one has any doubts about Zhu Gaoxian's martial arts, the only doubt is only about his cultural governance......
And the three battalions, as Zhu Gaoxian's henchmen and elite troops, suddenly made a move, and this news immediately made everyone present feel very panicked and terrified.
Without him, the methods that Zhu Gaoxian had previously revealed all proved that he was an iron-blooded emperor who was decisive in killing, and he could be called ruthless.
The dignified official is still the secretary, the second-grade minister of the imperial court, he will kill when he says he will kill, and he was directly suffocated to death in the prison!
A total of more than 130 officials of the imperial court were implicated for this, and more than 3,000 people were imprisoned, exiled, beheaded, and their homes were raided!
It can be called the most chilling bloody rain in Daming some time ago!
And it is said that during the expedition to Mobei, this Emperor Hongxi ordered the Ming army to slaughter hundreds of thousands of alien races!
With such a ruthless method, how can everyone not feel panicked?
"Calm down, calm down first!"
After a period of panic, it was still the head of the Qi family who was the most calm, he thought about it, and felt that Zhu Gaoxian should not send a large army to kill his own family members, in that case, would the face of the court be gone?
Is he Zhu Gaoxian really not afraid of the bad reputation of a tyrant and leaving a stench in the history books for thousands of years?
"The old man thinks that Emperor Hongxi will not be so unwise, and you don't need to panic because of this."
"Most of the troops are dispatched for other reasons."
"Let's send more people to each other, and then investigate carefully, don't mess around."
"In addition, hurry up and contact the Kong family again, with their help, the emperor will definitely have some concerns......"
……
Qufu, Confucius.
After receiving the news from the head of the Qi family, the elders of the Confucian Mansion immediately gathered together again to discuss.
"These guys are really cowardly."
An old man of the Confucian family sneered and said:
"When I saw the movement of the army, I thought that the emperor was going to deal with them, so ridiculous, it's really ridiculous, haha!"
For the people of the Confucian Mansion, Wenhua morality is the first on the surface, and no matter how prominent the military and military generals are, they will not pay attention to them at all.
Literati and Confucian morality are the things that should be most valued in the world and the imperial court, and what are the vulgar and unbearable people of the army and military generals?
Therefore, many people simply scoff at the concerns of those families.
"What can the emperor do even if he mobilizes his troops? Could it be that he still dared to directly attack these big families in the Northland? ”
"With our Confucius Mansion to guarantee them, the new emperor will not dare to do such a ridiculous thing unless he is crazy!"
Another Confucian family elder also smiled and said:
"Now that prices in the north are rising, the people are uneasy, the capital has just experienced martial law and the closure of the city, and a large number of officials in the DPRK and China have been convicted and in turmoil, the new emperor is estimated to be in a hurry now, where is there any spare time to think of us?"
"It's time to take advantage of this great opportunity to get in touch and give him a little color!"
"So that this new emperor knows the fate of not respecting our Confucian Mansion!"
Everyone burst out laughing, apparently satisfied.
However, a middle-aged man seemed a little worried, hesitated for a long time before speaking, and said in a low voice:
"Uncle, now those families in the Northland have a faint intention to rebel......
"Is it appropriate for our Confucius Mansion to participate in this kind of thing?"
Hearing his words, the elder of the Confucian family, who was sitting in the middle, and the most powerful uncle on weekdays, opened his mouth with a deep groan:
"Little Wu, you're right to be worried."
"On the bright side, our Confucian Mansion can't participate in this kind of thing, otherwise it will be greatly affected whether it is success or failure."
"However, now it's not us, not even those big families, but the ghosts who were pushed out by them, so it's not a big problem."
"The small families in these places have Wu Bao to compete with, and they have the financial support of several major families, and we are helping in secret, which can cause great damage to the new emperor, and even make him anxious."
"After all, it is one thing to kill foreign races, and it is another thing to slaughter the people of the Ming Dynasty, how can he fight Emperor Hongxi, can he still slaughter the people in broad daylight?"
"In that case, the position of the emperor under his ass, don't think about sitting down anymore!"
Everyone also felt very reasonable, and nodded yes one after another.
Indeed, using factors such as lack of food to incite the people to rebel, and then defending Wubao, with the financial and material support of these major families in the north, will definitely make the new emperor and the imperial court anxious and exhausted.
And if the Confucian government tries to stir up public opinion and create public opinion between the government and the opposition, it can also bring huge pressure to the imperial court, and it is also a huge test for the new emperor.
In the final analysis, Emperor Jianwen has only reigned for more than three years, and if he can die in the fire, you can't Emperor Hongxi?
Your old man, Emperor Yongle, still snatched the throne from Emperor Jianwen!
We can kill you too, and then support another clan again!"
The reason why these people are so fearless, to put it bluntly, is that the Ming Dynasty has not been established for a long time, and the majesty of the royal family and the imperial court has not yet been able to implement the world, so that many people still have some unrealistic illusions in their hearts......
And just when many family elders were eagerly discussing, suddenly a steward appeared outside the hall, and his face looked extremely anxious.
When the housekeeper of the Confucian Mansion, known as Xiao Wu, saw this scene, he suddenly chuckled in his heart, walked out quietly, and pulled this person to the side.
"Fifth brother, it's not good!"
The man looked anxious, lowered his voice and said:
"Didn't you keep me staring at the main traffic routes? Something is wrong! ”
Kong Chengwu was stunned for a moment and asked:
"What's wrong?"
"There are officers and soldiers blocking the road! A lot of people in our house have been arrested! ”
What?
Hearing this, Kong Chengwu was suddenly shocked and angry.
"Is it blocking the road outside our Confucian Mansion?"
The man shook his head:
"That's not it, it's just that bayonets are set up on the roads leading to the provinces, and the guards are all officers and soldiers, and they look very elite."
"Whether it's from Dongchang or Jeju, you can't go out of the Shandong border anymore."
"Those officers and soldiers, if they find out about our Confucian Mansion, they will be arrested!" (End of chapter)
