No. 0020 Dense and sparse, the sons dare not dispose of it

Since the Hu Weiyong case and Guo Heng case, the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty have all been terrified, lest they do something bad and anger the superiors, so that their heads are in different places and their families are wiped out.

Especially after the death of Prince Yiwen Zhu Biaoxu, all the ministers acted very carefully, and they knew that without Prince Yiwen to stop them, the upper position may have changed into a ruthless killing machine.

When Zhu Di, the king of Yan, was canonized as the crown prince, many courtiers were crying in their hearts, they originally thought that they would support the benevolent and tolerant Zhu Yunwen as the crown prince, and wait for a hundred years after the current saint, they can also have some good lives.

I didn't think that His Majesty would not play cards according to the routine, and he would no longer care about the establishment of the heir, and forcefully pushed King Yan to the position of prince.

Those who have a heart to fight dare not come forward, for fear that the nine clans will not be protected, so Liu Sanwu still dares to speak out, but considering his colleagues in the DPRK and China, there is still no death after all.

Zhu Di, the king of Yan, in the eyes of many people, is no different from the upper position, acting fiercely, with iron and bloody wrists, it is simply carved out of a mold, he is the prince, and the courtiers do not have the slightest sense of security in their hearts.

At present, Zhan Hui jumped out, still as the imperial history of Zuodu, and the courtiers were terrified, lest it was himself who was written on the fold today.

If this is the case, it is better to go back and hang a white silk directly, so as not to implicate a lot.

In the past, Hu Weiyong's case was widely implicated, which made people frightened, even if they met Hu Weiyong's slave who bought vegetables on the side of the road, and said hello, he was likely to be arrested and killed.

The officials who can make Zhan Hui personally come out to impeach will never have a small official position, but even so, those courtiers with low official positions are trembling at the moment.

They will not be directly impeached, but if the person who is impeached happens to be their superior, then they will suffer, and if they can't be kept together, there will be no one left in the entire department.

The political ecology of the early Ming Dynasty was like this, from the princes and nobles to the rural officials, all of them were terrified, lest one day a relative who could not be beaten by eight poles would be killed and implicated themselves.

Zhu Di looked at everything in his eyes, and then looked at Zhan Hui, and he was also a little curious in his heart, to be able to let Zhan Hui come out in person, this official has a lot of energy.

Could it be that Zhan Hui is going to tear up with Liangguo Gong Lanyu? Zhu Di glanced at the blue jade who was out of the sky, and quickly removed this idea, Zhan Hui is not a reckless person, and now is not the time to move the blue jade.

To be precise, unless Daddy wants to move Blue Jade, no one else can move him.

The civil and military officials were waiting for Zhan Hui to speak, but he just held up the song and said: "The minister didn't dare to know what was going on, but the secret was also sparse, and he should have gone straight to the front of the emperor, but the secret was only delivered, so the timing was delayed, and the minister asked His Majesty to punish the crime." ”

As soon as Zhan Hui opened his mouth, in the ears of many courtiers, there was a feeling that the earth was shaking.

Secrets are a very special kind of documents in the music, and the most important feature is confidentiality.

There are often two defects in ordinary performances, the first is that the format is cumbersome, the approval is slow, the time is delayed, and it is easy to delay the political machine.

In terms of format, after Zhu Yuanzhang's drastic reform, it has now become simpler.

The turning point in this is naturally related to Ru Taisu.

In December of the eighth year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang reviewed the recital, and got the recital of Ru Taisu, then the director of the Criminal Department, and felt a big headache.

Every time this old guy plays a sparse game, he often has seven or eight thousand words, and the semantics are difficult, and he is very boring to read.

This time it was the same, Zhu Yuanzhang simply didn't bother to read it, and asked Zhongshulang Wang Min to read it to him, but as a result, Wang Min read this tens of thousands of words for an hour and a half, and he didn't finish reading it.

Zhu Yuanzhang was furious, and said in his heart that we listened carefully for an hour and a half, and this government affairs have not been dealt with, if the ministers are like this, then we must not die directly in front of this emperor.

The more he thought about it, the more angry Zhu Yuanzhang immediately summoned Ru Taisu into the palace, beat him severely, and then reprimanded the ministers, and said things directly in the future, don't talk about tens of thousands of useless nonsense.

Interestingly, although Ru Taisu was beaten up, Zhu Yuanzhang thought that the last few hundred words of the piece of music were very reasonable, so he adopted them.

Secondly, there is another flaw in the ordinary music, that is, it is easy to leak secrets.

Because it takes many times for ordinary music to change hands before it reaches the center, it is very easy to hide and not present in this process.

In order to deal with this situation, in the sixteenth year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang issued an edict: Whoever says things will be sealed directly to the front of the emperor. The real seal mentioned in it is this dense sparseness.

The dense and dense go directly to the front of the emperor, and can only be opened by the emperor, which greatly improves the secrecy. It is precisely because of this that there are "traitors who are exposed when they have something, and no one is spared." ”

However, generally speaking, the secret sparse meeting was forwarded through the General Administration, and Zhan Hui was the imperial history of the left capital of the Inspectorate, and there was an extra secret letter in his hand, which was unpredictable.

The eunuch Huang Gou'er took small steps to present Mi Shu, and was just about to hand it over to Zhu Yuanzhang, when he saw him pointing at Zhu Di, he immediately understood and forwarded it to the prince Zhu Di.

Zhu Di, who got the dense sparseness, immediately understood that his father was going to hand over this matter to him to deal with, so he said: "Lord Zhan has worked hard for a long time, what a crime." ”

"Your Highness is magnanimous, and Your Majesty is gracious."

The sound of stabbing sounded, Zhu Di opened the seal on the dense sparse, and then opened the dense sparse and browsed carefully.

After reading it, Zhu Di's face remained unchanged, but he turned to face Zhu Yuanzhang and said: "This matter is very important, and my sons dare not deal with it, please ask His Majesty the Emperor to make a holy judgment." ”

As soon as these words came out, the hanging hearts of the ministers suddenly lifted up, and they almost fell out of their chests.

Even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that it was very important, so how terrifying is the matter in this secret passage?

Recalling the previous Hu Weiyong case and Guo Heng case, the ministers felt cold in their hearts, and only felt that half of their bodies were in the ground.

Almost all the courtiers, their throats rolled, and they only felt that their scalps were numb and tingling, as if there were thousands of ants gnawing there, and large drops of sweat continued to pour out on their foreheads.

There's no way, they know the superiors too well, once this matter is really widely implicated, then the superiors won't care about what the law doesn't blame.

The butcher's knife is erected, it is the end of the rolling heads, and when the time comes, maybe half of the Manchu Dynasty will have to return to the sky.

Even those courtiers who have always been honest and upright and have no mistakes feel nervous at the moment, killing people in higher positions has always been ruthless, in the Hu Weiyong case and Guo Heng case, are there still fewer people who were wrongly killed?

The court was depressed for a while, and those who were not determined to do so, under the mixture of terror, fell to the ground with a muffled "bang" sound.

It seemed to have caused a chain reaction, and many people fainted for a while, Zhu Di saw this, frowned slightly, and said, "Come on, take the unwell ministers to the other hall to rest." ”

At this moment, he was also a little nervous, and even smelled the smell of blood, if what was said in this secret was true, then it was really suffering.

Following the Hu Weiyong case, the empty seal case, and the Guo Heng case, it is very likely that a fourth major case with a wide range of strains will occur.

Because of this, he didn't dare to jump to conclusions, so he had to hand over this matter to his father for preview, and only his father could handle this matter.
