"Shang Chao—"

Outside the Fengtian Palace, hundreds of officials stood densely, waiting outside, and a eunuch shouted.

Immediately, the hundred officials walked towards the Fengtian Temple.

The Fengtian Hall of the Nanjing Imperial Palace was originally the location of the Holy Dynasty, and it was not used after the capital was moved, but some eunuchs were left in the palace to clean the hall every day and keep it clean.

Hundreds of officials entered one after another, and they found that above the hall of the national teacher Li Xiao, next to the dragon chair, they were standing with their hands in their hands, staring at them with sharp eyes.

According to the level of the official position, after standing still, the hundred officials arched their hands and said in unison: "See the national teacher." ”

Li Xiao bowed slightly, looking at these Nanjing officials.

Compared with the officials of the imperial court in the capital, the spirit and appearance are indeed several grades worse.

Many officials with gray beards and strong abilities were brought to the capital.

Most of those who are reluctant to leave are born as local scholars, and these are the people who are mainly against them.

And more of them are old and healthy, and those who care for the elderly here, such as officials like Jian Yi, do not seek merit but seek no fault, and live a chaotic life by doing nothing.

Today, the first time to go to court, then we must shake these people.

Let those who want to retire and retire move, let them know that it is wishful thinking to not do what they say and want to spend the next days safely.

In addition, it is necessary to knock on those officials born in the local noble clan.

At this time, Jian Yi stood up and said loudly:

"Ladies and gentlemen, if the Emperor wants to implement a new policy, live with the people's livelihood, and enhance national strength, he must concentrate his power, and if the power is not specialized, the government decree will not be reached, and if the government decree is not reached, the national policy will not work. And if you want to concentrate power, you must fly the great policy of the district into the homes of ordinary people, and extend the governance institutions of the imperial court down again, to every village and every person! Ladies and gentlemen, the national teacher came from afar, and he came to Nanjing to promote the dormitory system of the Beijing Division, and everyone knows that now my Daming Jingshi has fully implemented the dormitory system, and the national strength is thriving, and the treasury tax has increased more than five or six times, and this dormitory area is the foundation of the enhancement of national strength. ”

The voice fell,

The civil and military officials were silent.

It sounds so good, putting all their land into the pocket of the imperial court, of course, it is enriching the imperial court, fattening the imperial court, and suffering themselves, it is simply a banditry.

Jian Yi continued: "Then everyone is here today, and this official will announce one thing, the national teacher wants to establish the 'Supreme Temporary Commander-in-Chief Division of the Ming Dynasty's Law Reform and Reform', and the supreme commander is also the national teacher, and the commander of the command department has the highest decision-making power, absolute decision-making power, law enforcement power, and law-making power. He is in charge of the civil and military officials of the Nanjing Ministry, six ministries, justice, people's livelihood, and military. The venue of the Supreme Command Division is in this Fengtian Temple, and from today onwards, everyone will have to participate in the Command Division's morning court on time every day, do you have any objections? ”

The voice fell.

The entire Fengtian Temple instantly boiled.

They thought they were going to see the national teacher today, but they didn't expect that they would have to come over every day to go to the morning court in the future, which is also outrageous.

Is the national teacher the emperor?

Do you want to let hundreds of officials give him a court?

With all the rights, what is the difference between this and the emperor??

"The lower officials objected."

A speaker stood up and said righteously: "The Hajj is exclusive to the Son of Heaven, does the national teacher want the Son of Heaven?" We are serving the Son of Heaven, not the national teacher! How can you make me wait to come here for Hajj, I can't wait! ”

Li Xiao said indifferently: "The national teacher is the teacher of the Ming Dynasty, the teacher of the Son of Heaven, and he is still above the Taishi Taifu, the prince of heaven and earth, since he is the teacher of the Son of Heaven, why can't the national teacher act on behalf of the sky?" ”

Another imperial history of the Imperial Court came out, and said: "This is simply outrageous, even if your national teacher is the teacher of the Son of Heaven, one person is above ten thousand people, that is not the Son of Heaven, it is a courtier, as a courtier, it is rare to see the imperial power as a courtier!" ”

Li Xiao smiled slightly: "Today you have seen that the national teacher does what he says, and today's words are outspoken, that is, he has to do it, and if he doesn't do it, he has to do it!" ”

The strong voice fell, and everyone was stunned.

Subsequently, the entire Fengtian Hall became more lively, and everyone was talking in private.

"It's too rampant, how can an official act like this?"

"That's right, even if the Holy One proposes a national policy, he has to ask for our opinions, how can he say anything."

"That's right, I can't wait, I don't agree"

The officials became more and more intense, and the noise became louder and louder.

Seeing this situation, Li Xiao couldn't help but think back to the time ten years ago, when he came to Nanjing, he was also the crazy impeachment of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and he had a feeling of dreaming back to the past.

The difference is that I was standing under the stage that time.

And now, I am standing on the stage.

Li Jinglong shouted: "Silence! What's the matter, let's talk about it on the countertop! ”

The voice was full of anger, and the whole hall fell silent.

An inspector of the imperial history walked out and said: "National teacher, the establishment of a new yamen is a big thing, you have not reported it, there is no process, and there is no holy decree." Just by virtue of your empty words, you will establish a new yamen, and let me wait for the daily court. How can you convince me to wait? Who knows if this is the idea of the saint, just like the general who goes out to fight, he doesn't even have a military talisman, he can say that he said it to the saint, and dispatch the soldiers at will, wouldn't the generals of the world rebel if they want to? ”

"Yes, that's true! There must be a charter for everything, and it is difficult to believe unless there is a holy decree. ”

"That's right, even if a new yamen is built, it will have to be decreed, and the location of the yamen selected cannot be Fengtian Temple, Fengtian Temple is the place where the Son of Heaven goes to court!"

"If the national teacher wants to establish a new yamen, he will either take the holy decree out, and if there is no holy decree, he will ask the national teacher to let the holy lord draft the decree."

For a time, all officials rejected the proposal on this ground.

They were sure that Li Xiao would not be able to come out with the holy decree, after all, the saint was not there, and in a place like Fengtian Temple, the saint would definitely not agree.

The second is that even if the saint agrees, it will take a month to come and go, and the officials of the Jingshi Imperial Court will definitely oppose it.

When the time comes, another wave of operation, impeaching the national teacher for misconduct in Nanjing, pretending to be a ghost, and getting involved in the imperial power, will definitely make Li Xiao unable to eat and walk around.

During this time, everyone has heard of what Li Xiao did, and it was clearly Hu Lai, who took the Xiucai to sleep in the grave mountain, and heard that he also made paper figures to let the Xiucai sleep with the paper figures at night.

You must know that the Emperor Taishang is most disgusted with folk evil arts and obscene sacrifices.

When the time comes, this will make a big fuss, and Li Xiao and the Emperor Taishang will be separated from each other, one in Beijing and the other in Nanjing, and the Emperor Taishang must have concerns, so that Li Xiao will not be able to ask for the holy decree.

The more people talked, the more excited they became, and their veins exploded.

"Quiet, quiet, listen to me."

Jian Yi shouted loudly, but now no one listens to him, and they all point their swords at Li Xiao, saying that they don't listen to the national teacher now, but only listen to the holy decree.

"Who said there is no holy decree!"

Li Xiao scolded, he had long known that these officials would not give in easily, and they had to use thunderous means.

As the sound came out, the scene fell silent in an instant.

"There is no holy decree, the national teacher will write one for you now!!"

Li Xiao looked at the eunuch next to him and said, "Come on, pen and ink are waiting!" ”

The eunuch was startled, and then immediately took out pen and ink.

The officials in the entire court were stunned.

I can't figure out what Li Xiao is going to do.

Soon.

The pen and ink were brought, and seven or eight eunuchs brought a table of cases and polished the ink.

Li Xiao smiled, took out a yellow cloth from his chest, and spread it on the table.

Pick up the pen and start writing on it.

Half a moment later, he finished writing, picked it up, handed it to the eunuch next to him, and said, "Read it to everyone." ”

When the eunuch took it, his face turned pale, and he was so frightened that his whole body trembled.

It turned out to be a holy decree written by Li Xiao himself.

"Yes." Li Xiao's gaze looked at the eunuch lightly.

The eunuch shuddered for a moment, then picked up the holy decree and said loudly: "Fengtian carries the emperor's edict."

Hiss!!!

The sound of inhaling was constantly heard throughout the hall.

As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military officials were shocked.

It turned out to be Li Xiao who was planning the purpose

This is an overkill!!

It's really unimaginable, throughout the ages, those who dare to pretend to be overbearing, all of them are heroes!!

The last one to do this was Cao Cao, but it was also the end of the Han Dynasty, the emperor was young, Dong Zhuo dictated the dynasty, fornicated in the harem, and Cao Cao planned to summon the heroes of the world to crusade against Dong Zhuo.

This Li Xiao is really bold, at this time, the founding emperor Taishang is still there, and the saint is also eloquent, both of the saints are there, and he actually intends to pretend in public!

At this time, the eunuch paused, and then said: "The emperor's edict said. I allowed Li Xiao to set up the 'Supreme Provisional Commander-in-Chief of the Reform of the Ming Dynasty' in the Fengtian Temple, and ordered Li Xiao to be the supreme commander-in-chief, and hundreds of officials went to the Hajj every day to see him, obey the orders of the national teacher, and there must be no mistakes. ”

The voice fell.

The whole hall is extremely quiet!

It was as if everyone's breathing had stopped, and even the sound of a needle falling on the ground could be heard clearly, and the silence was terrible!

Outrageous!

It's outrageous!

In front of hundreds of civil and military officials, write a holy decree in front of them, make yourself the supreme commander, and let the hundred officials go on a pilgrimage to see and obey the order!

How could there be such a ridiculous thing in the world!

This. This is simply treating the civil and military officials of the Nanjing Imperial Court as fools, even if everyone is here to support the elderly, they can't be so unscrupulous, right?

Long.

The whole hall seemed to fall from heaven to hell, and from hell to heaven, and once again erupted into even more noisy movements.

"It's over, it's over! I have a heroic figure in the Ming Dynasty, unscrupulous, if he is allowed to act recklessly here, the country will not be a country! ”

"Li Xiao, everyone respects you and calls you a national teacher, but you are so bold, in front of us and others, are you really blind and stupid?"

"Li Xiao, you actually learned from Cao Cao, dare to pretend to be an edict, where are you here to change the law, you are here to change the country, you want to let Daming become the world of your surname Li, you want to tear the soil and seal the king, monopolize Nanjing, I will not obey!!"

Hundreds of officials shouted one after another, beating their chests and feet, and some even fell directly to the ground, crying and shouting, and the scene suddenly became extremely chaotic and uncontrollable.

Opportunity is a godsend!!!!

In the crowd, Zhao Jingkun, the secretary of the military department, had a calm face, but he was very happy in his heart.

Li Xiao pretended to be an edict in front of everyone, just this one was enough to make him fall into a place of no return, and he would be captured and killed on the spot, and even if he was a saint at that time, he would not be able to find fault with it.

Even if he really has the trust of the saints, he still has to weigh himself.

The so-called strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, in this Nanjing City, he has nothing to rely on!

If he is step-by-step, he will have nothing to do with Li Xiao, but if he is so greedy and wants to eat a fat man in one bite, he is looking for death!

I really didn't expect that Li Xiao, the national teacher, is just a wine bag and a rice bag!

Thinking of this, Zhao Jingkun, the secretary of the military department, pointed at Li Xiao angrily, and at the same time looked at Huazhong, the governor of the five armies in Nanjing, and signaled that he could do it.

Hua Zhong's father was named Hua Yunlong, a member of the founding honors and was named the Marquis of Huai'an.

In the seventh year of Hongwu, someone impeached Huai'an Hou Hua Yunlong for living in the mansion of the prime minister of the Yuan Dynasty without authorization, and also overstepping the level to enjoy the items in the palace of the Yuan Dynasty, and the court recalled Hua Yunlong and died on the way back to Beijing.

And this Huazhong is his son.

However, he was later demoted on suspicion of poisoning and murdering Cao Guogong and Li Wenzhong.

He was also implicated in Hu Weiyong's case and was stripped of his title, but after moving the capital, he stayed in Nanjing, and also mixed up the official position of the governor of the left capital, obviously someone also helped the village.

Huazhong shouted loudly and said: "The soldiers listen to the order, and the national teacher plans to make an edict in public, and the crime is heinous, so I will take it down to the general." ”

The voice fell.

Knock Knock Knock –

The sound of neat footsteps came from outside, shaking the hall with a roar, and the sound of armor and weapons colliding was endless.

A hundred people dressed in armor entered the hall and went straight to Li Xiao.

Seeing this, the officials broke out in a cold sweat and retreated one after another to make way for them.

I didn't expect to have such a great show to watch today.

Zuo Du Huazhong was in charge of the 30,000 defenders of Nanjing City, and these soldiers must have been prepared in advance.

"Presumptuous, murdering a national teacher is a capital crime."

Li Jinglong shouted loudly and waved his hand: "Don't kill it!" ”

Knock Knock Knock –

More soldiers came out of the hall from all directions.

These were all soldiers of Cixiwei, wearing silver armor and holding spears, approaching more than three hundred people, and one of the soldiers was directly closed by the gate of the Heavenly Temple.

As soon as the door closed, it was dark.

The faces of the civil and military officials turned pale, and today this is going to see blood!

The sound of killing sounded in the main hall, Cixiwei could stand the test, and the three hundred soldiers surrounded and killed one hundred soldiers in an instant.

The wails kept coming, and the civil officials trembled with fear.

The door of the temple opened again, the light turned on, and only the corpse was left on the ground, and Cixiwei took the corpse off the outside, and a long blood stain came out on the ground. Immediately, a eunuch came in and washed the blood with a mop.

And Zuodu Governor Huazhong has been captured by Li Jinglong's soldiers and pressed to the ground.

Hundreds of civil and military officials, no one dares to speak.

"You are a national teacher, you are simply," Hua Zhong was about to speak.

"Smack",

Li Jinglong threw him a big-eared melon seed, full of strength.

Hit him in the head and couldn't speak.

Li Jinglong shouted: "Did you let you speak?" ”

is the so-called enemy is very red when they meet, when Li Jinglong's father Li Wenzhong died, this Huazhong was implicated.

Zhu Yuanzhang suspected that Huazhong poisoned Li Wenzhong, and instructed Jinyiwei to review it many times, but nothing was found, and the matter was closed.

Li Jinglong was helpless about this.

But this time he suddenly had such an opportunity, he really couldn't ask for it!

Li Jinglong arched his hand at Li Xiao and said loudly: "National teacher, this Central China army entered the palace, intending to kill the national teacher's life, and plotting against him in public, how to deal with it?" ”

Li Xiao said lightly: "Chop!" ”

As soon as this remark came out, the whole hall was shocked!

Huazhong's face changed greatly, he didn't care so much, and shouted: "National teacher, I am an official of the imperial court, even if I want to behead me, I will be tried by three divisions, and the saint decides, what right do you have to behead me!" ”

Zhao Jingkun, the secretary of the Ministry of War, also stood up and said loudly: "Central China is the governor of the Zuo capital of the five armies in Nanjing, the military attache of the first grade, and the general Jinwu, how can you say that you will be beheaded, it is simply lawless!" ”

"With this, is it enough!"

Li Xiao pulled out the sword at his waist and raised his right hand high.

Everyone was stunned and immediately shocked.

But he saw Li Xiao shouting: "Shang Fang sword, first cut and then play, the upper hit is not right, the lower is disloyal, now there is a rebel in Huazhong, and he wants to kill the life of his own division, behead!" ”

Everyone looked at it, and the sword in Li Xiao's hand was engraved with the four characters of Shang Fang's sword.

After Huazhong saw it, his face turned pale in an instant, his heart was finished, it was completely finished, and the new official took office with three fires, and this fire burned on my head.

He didn't dare to be stiff-mouthed anymore, and shouted: "The national teacher spares his life, the national teacher spares his life."

"Quack!"

Huazhong didn't speak, Li Jinglong drew his saber and slashed at Huazhong's neck, his hand fell with the knife, and the head fell to the ground.

The dignified military attache was beheaded in public.

The human head rolled in the main hall, and the hundred officials were paralyzed with fright.

And Li Jinglong finally avenged the murder of his father.

Zhao Jingkun, the secretary of the Ministry of War, was stunned, and pointed at Li Xiao and said: "Li Xiao, you are too rampant, you actually planned to make an edict in public, and also killed the imperial court officials, I will go to the capital to sue the emperor!" ”

Li Xiao smiled and asked rhetorically: "Who said that the edict drafted by the national teacher?" ”

Zhao Jingkun didn't expect the other party's dead duck to have a hard mouth, and said angrily: "Everyone is watching, you can still hide from the sky and the sea, the holy decree is clearly written by you, and everyone has seen it." ”

"Is it a pretentious edict when it is written?"

Li Xiao looked at the eunuch and ordered: "Show the holy decree to the big guy, whether it is true or not, you will know at a glance!" ”

The eunuch bowed and then presented the decree squarely in front of everyone.

That's right, what Li Xiao wrote was not a false holy decree at all, but a true holy decree.

There is a seal of the jade seal on it, and there is a seal of the province of Chinese books.

There is also the name that Zhu Yuanzhang personally reviewed with a red pen, and the handwriting on it is the three big characters of "Zhu Yuanzhang".

Everyone was shocked, this is the true holy decree!

It was a blank holy decree that Zhu Yuanzhang personally reviewed!

In other words, no matter what Li Xiao fills in this blank holy decree, it is true!

Everyone looked at Li Xiao in disbelief.

Not to mention the sword of Shang Fang, there is also a blank holy decree.

Li Xiao smiled: "Who else is going to the capital to sue the emperor?" ”

The officials bowed their heads one after another, and no one dared to answer.

Seeing this scene, Li Xiao smiled slightly, today is a battle to become famous, and these people have been completely suppressed.

Li Xiao continued: "Who else said that this new yamen can't be set up in the Fengtian Palace? ”

Still no one answered, and the audience was silent.

Who dares to jump out to stop it, that's not looking for death?

The fate of Central China is to be vigilant and make an example!

Li Xiao's actions seem to remind everyone that the one who once did this was the Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, and in those years, countless officials died under Zhu Yuanzhang's butcher's knife.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang is old, and now Zhu Yuanzhang's successor is here, and Li Xiao, the god of killing in the Ming Dynasty, has come out

"Since there is no objection, very good, the new yamen will take effect immediately, all the yamen of the imperial court will obey the orders of the supreme commander, and the decrees issued by the commander must be implemented immediately, without delay, otherwise they will be immediately executed!"

After speaking, Li Xiao looked at Li Jinglong and said, "Li Jinglong listens to the order." ”

Li Jinglong arched his hand and said: "The end will be." ”

Li Xiao said: "Central China is dead, Nanjing can't be without generals for a day, so you can immediately take over the position of Central China, take charge of the Nanjing military defense and the 30,000 city defense army, and guard the safety of Nanjing!" ”

Li Jinglong said: "The last general will take the order!" ”

No one dared to stop it.

In an instant, Nanjing's city defense fell into the hands of the national teacher.

Hundreds of officials were shocked!

This Li Xiao really doesn't make a move, as soon as he makes a move, he will attack with thunder, establish a yamen, take charge of government affairs, kill the guards, take over military affairs, and do it like flowing water, all in one go!

The eunuch shouted: "Retreat." ”

"The ministers are leaving."

Where did the hundred officials dare to stay, the blood on the ground has not been washed clean, and they have retreated, and they have escaped from this hall as if they were fleeing
