Jiangxi's scholars have been very strong in the imperial examinations over the years, and there are a large number of Jinshi every time.

First, Jiangxi people can indeed read.

Second, the first to bring the last, hand in hand to the stage.

Zhu Qiyu's original intention was to think of Yang Shiqi, the Dazai assistant who came out of Ji'an, Jiangxi.

Unexpectedly, Gao Yao had just finished reading the list of jinshi, only to hear two plops, and Chen Xun and He Wenyuan both knelt on the ground.

One is a scholar of Wuyingdian University and a scholar of the household department; One is a scholar of the East Pavilion University and a scholar of the Ministry of Officials.

Zhu Qiyu was taken aback, what are the two of them doing.

Zhu Qiyu looked left and right, and asked everyone curiously with his eyes, what is the situation.

Originally, it was okay not to look around, but Zhu Qiyu looked left and right, not only did no one speak, but Huang Pu also knelt on the ground.

What the hell is going on, Zhu Qiyu had to look at Wang Wen for help.

Wang Wen hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, Yang Shiqi is the traitor." Although the three cabinet ministers are from Jiangxi, they have nothing to do with the Jiangxi Xinke Jinshi who are in tandem with each other, form a party for personal gain, and collectively write a letter to satirize and admonish.

Although Chen Ge Lao and Yang Shiqi are both from Ji'an, Jiangxi, they have no intersection with each other, let alone participate in Yang Shiqi's plan to bring disaster to the country and the people. ”

Only then did Zhu Qiyu understand that half of these Jiangxi Xinke Jinshi were from Ji'an. Chen Xun is also a native of Ji'an, Jiangxi, thinking that he is targeting him.

He Wenyuan is also a native of Jiangxi, and he is still the secretary of the ministry, and he is also the examiner of the palace examination this time.

Huang Pu is also from Jiangxi, and he is also the examiner of this examination.

If something goes wrong, all three of them are responsible, and Chen Xun is the first to bear the brunt.

Wang Wen was also not sure what the emperor had in mind, so he gave a very flexible answer.

Zhu Qiyu is very satisfied with Wang Wen's performance, and he now has two choices, one is to follow Wang Wen's words and condemn the blame to Yang Shiqi.

Although Yang Shiqi is dead, he is also a banner of Jiangxi officials after all. Now Zhu Qiyu began to liquidate Yang Shiqi, and Jiangxi officials secretly organized it, and the new science and technology scholars wrote to the palace.

Whether this statement is true or not, at least logically self-consistent.

There is no problem at all in directing public opinion here.

Second, Wang Wen has directly defined the behavior of Jiangxi Jinshi's writing: they are connected with each other and form a party for personal gain.

Zhu Qiyu can choose to agree with Wang Wen's statement and take the opportunity to force Chen Xun to retreat.

glanced at Chen Xun who was kneeling on the ground faintly, and Zhu Qiyu was also very entangled in his heart: forcing Chen Xun to retreat and helping Wang Wen to the position of first assistant, this day will be much more comfortable in the future.

But if you really want to do this, it will be too cool. In the future, the ministers' sense of security will inevitably be greatly reduced, and if they do too much of this kind of thing, sooner or later they will scatter people's hearts.

"Get up!"

After weighing it repeatedly, Zhu Qiyu still planned to lift it up again and put it down gently.

Chen Xun, He Wenyuan, and Huang Pu all thanked and got up.

Chen Xun and He Wenyuan both broke out in a cold sweat, from Chen Xun's own point of view, he definitely didn't want to be a leader, and He Wenyuan didn't want to.

Huang Pu is the emperor's confidant, it doesn't matter, but he just follows through the motions.

Just when the atmosphere in the pavilion eased slightly, Zhu Qiyu turned his head and said to Gao Yao: "Ting Jian, I have been an emperor for more than 20 years, at most, I can be able to prosper the Ming Dynasty."

Decades later, the responsibility of pushing the Ming Dynasty's national strength to the peak belongs to you young people.

My hope for you is to be a peerless national warrior like Yu Rang, not a traitor like Yang Shiqi.

When Yang Shiqi bewitched Xuanmiao to give up Jiaozhi, what did he say? ”

When Gao Yao heard this, he hurriedly bowed down and replied: "The traitorous ministers Yang Shiqi and Yang Rongyan said in Xuanmiao: Your Majesty is compassionate to the lives of the people and is not nameless. Han abandoned the Pearl Cliff, and the prehistory thought it was a beautiful talk, not to show weakness, and it was convenient. ”

Zhu Qiyu nodded, and said to everyone with a look of disdain: "Listen, is this the words of the ministers?" How can a person be so immoral?

Beasts still know how to protect their homeland and territory, and traitors like Yang Shiqi and Yang Rong are not as good as beasts. ”

As soon as Zhu Qiyu's voice fell, the atmosphere in the pavilion was completely broken.

A group of important ministers all exchanged heads and talked about it.

The emperor hated Sanyang and hated to eat his flesh raw, which was a fact that all important ministers had long known.

But today, the emperor said so heavily and sparingly, which means that the bloody purge of Sanyang is inevitable.

Yes, it is a bloody purge, although Sanyang is dead, his relatives are still there, and his family property is still there.

Zhu Qiyu would never allow the traitors who were bent on harming the Ming Dynasty to retreat.

Although according to normal human feelings, the disaster will not affect the children and grandchildren, but it is too strange to be unable to stand up to Sanyang.

Zhu Qiyu's principle is like this, if he is really good for the Ming Dynasty, but he messes things up when he implements it, such a minister is excusable.

For example, Sun Chengzong, the emperor of the Apocalypse, and Yang Sichang, Chongzhen's most trusted master. Both of these people are loyal to Daming and do things sincerely. It's just that they didn't get things done in the end, they just tried their best, and they weren't to blame.

But what about a strange person like Sanyang, who is single-mindedly doing things for the worse. How can they harm the Ming Dynasty, they will do what they do.

If he is like Zhu Qizhen's confidant eunuch Xining, who is a Jurchen person and hates Daming, then I can understand what he is doing.

And people like Sanyang can't find a reason for them.

The emperor cursed Sanyang in his heart, and the ministers exchanged opinions with each other, nervously weighing whether to refute the emperor.

The emperor has already made his point of view, and if he doesn't refute it, it means that you have no opinion.

Once the position is determined, there can be no more reversal. You can't say go home today and sleep, and tomorrow you will stand in front of the emperor and shout: I am against it.

That's a pastime for the emperor.

If you want to oppose it, you should oppose it today, or you will completely acquiesce in it from now on.

Zhu Qiyu took two sips of tea faintly, and then coughed lightly.

Seeing that the time given by the emperor for discussion had arrived, the pavilion instantly fell silent.

Zhu Qiyu's first look was at Yu Qian, a cronie that Sanyang had tried his best to cultivate.

Yu Qian met the emperor's gaze, bowed slightly, and acquiesced.

Because Zhu Qiyu also made a compromise, he no longer mentioned Xuanzong's responsibility from beginning to end, and only let Sanyang carry all the black pots. Yu Qian didn't want to stimulate the emperor anymore, so he forced the emperor to be anxious, and it would be undignified to go directly to business.

After all, the reason is on the emperor's side, as long as they are not people whose conscience is completely extinguished, they all have to admit that Xuanzong and Sanyang have indeed done a bunch of bad things, and they can't count them, and they are all harming the foundation of the Ming Dynasty.

The person who can say that Xuanzong is Mingjun and Sanyang is a loyal minister, how thick his face is.

Zhu Qiyu read it again, and when he saw that no one spoke anymore, he was going to move on to the next topic.

At this time, Chen Xun suddenly stood up, bowed first, and then replied: "Your Majesty, Yang Shiqi and Yang Rong advocate giving up Jiaozhi in order to sympathize with the people and save military spending.

The two also cited the example of the Han Dynasty's abandonment of the Pearl Cliff to persuade Xuanmiao. ”

When Zhu Qiyu heard this, he was very puzzled. Chen Xun is good, why do you want to lift this bar.

Talking about Han abandoning the Pearl Cliff, isn't that looking for a spray?

The Han Dynasty did abandon Zhuya, which later became Hainan, because it was difficult to rule.

This matter will be studied deeply, but it will soon be extended to Xuanzong and Orthodoxy.

Without turning a corner for a while, Zhu Qiyu turned his head to look at He Yi.

He Yi saw that the emperor asked himself, so he looked in the direction of Gao Yao with his eyes.

Zhu Qiyu looked at Gao Yao, what does He Yi mean by this, how can he learn to be dumb.

After being stunned, Zhu Qiyu finally figured it out. Gao Yao had just read the Jiangxi Jinshi who had been satirized in the book one by one, and He Yi was suggesting that Chen Xun's statement was related to those Jiangxi officials.

It's right to think about it this way, Chen Xun is a native of Ji'an, Jiangxi, if he doesn't speak for Jiangxi Jinshi today, nor does he help Jiangxi Zai Fu defend himself, then he won't be able to mix in Jiangxi's official and gentry circles in the future.

Therefore, Chen Xun knew that he would touch the emperor's moldy head, so he could only bite the bullet. If you are punished, you will be punished, it is better than being shouted and beaten by a fellow villager from Jiangxi.

Knowing the joint in this issue, Zhu Qiyu pretended to be angry and replied to Chen Xun: "Han abandoned the Pearl Cliff, which emperor did it?" ”

Chen Xun replied: "Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty." ”

Zhu Qiyu teased when he heard this: "It turned out to be Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty." Yang Shiqi's thick skin is really amazing. He was also really embarrassed to mention Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty.

What did Emperor Xiaoxuan and Emperor Yuan say? “

Today, under the special support of Zhu Qiyu, Gao Yao has received a lot of opportunities for endorsement: "Your Majesty, when Emperor Yuan was the crown prince, he persuaded Emperor Xiaoxuan: 'Your Majesty's punishment is too deep, and it is appropriate to use Confucianism. ’

When Emperor Xiaoxuan heard this, his face changed greatly, and he said solemnly: "The Han family has its own system, which is supposed to be a tyrant, but it is purely moral and moral, and Zhou Zhenghu is used!" And the vulgar Confucianism is not up to the Ming Dynasty, but it is good to be ancient and not modern......

After the prince left, Emperor Xiaoxuan sighed and said: 'Those who mess with my family, the prince is also'! “

Zhu Qiyu nodded with satisfaction, and then smiled at Chen Xun: "Chen Ge Lao is a great talent in Lianzhong Sanyuan, Gao Yao's back is clear enough just now, do you still need my class to get an axe, explain it to you?" ”

Chen Xun had already fulfilled his due obligations for Jiangxi officialdom, and he no longer insisted, but just bowed down and replied: "It's the old minister who is stupid, please condemn the saint." ”

Zhu Qiyu nodded: "Since the guilt is known, that is, the guilt is not added." Chen Gelao, you also know what kind of ardent expectations Emperor Taizong had for Xuanmiao back then.

As a result, Sanyang received the kindness of Emperor Taizong and Emperor Renzong, how did they repay Taizong and Renzong?

They are bent on assisting Xuanmiao as Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty, do you say this is what a minister should do? Is there a problem with me calling them brutes? ”

Chen Xun only bowed and didn't speak.

Zhu Qiyu didn't criticize Chen Xun harshly, but just asked Yu Qian: "Yu Aiqing, I remember that after the Tumubao Incident, you advocated burning the grain and grass in Tongzhou."

Who was the man you assigned to burn the grain and grass? ”
