After listening to Zhu Houzhao's words, the officials were dumbfounded. To provide talents for the people, how could you say such shameless words as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty?

Those officials who are clamoring to resign and go on strike, let them eat, drink, whore, gamble, make money and occupy land, and have sex. They can all be considered leaders, but if they are asked to contribute to the people, they are just a daydream!

If they don't make the place a mess, they can be considered kind and kind.

Officials in Zhu Houzhao's party, the civil service group, the noble group, or those officials who were about to leave the court, all looked at Zhu Houzhao blankly, drove people away, and found such fresh and refined reasons. , As expected of you, you are the only emperor in the history of the Ming Dynasty who allowed civil servants to farm the land.

Zhu Houzhao ignored the strange looks in the eyes of the ministers and struck the iron mark while the iron was hot: "I am very relieved that you, my dear friends, can give up your glory and care for the people. I hope that after you return home, you will not forget your original intention and contribute to the prosperity of our Ming Dynasty." Share your efforts."

Those officials who were about to resign were so angry that they wanted to greet Zhu Houzhao's 18th generation ancestors. Do you understand, we are just doing it for the occasion. We don't want to resign at all for the sake of the occasion. Why are you such a dog emperor?

"Why is Your Majesty so mean and unkind?"

A member of the Literary Selection Department of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Wai Lang, lamented that he would die if he really lost his official position, because he had no skills at all except being an official.

"Why is Aiqing so sad? Could it be that she doesn't want to do something for the people?"

Zhu Houzhao's face suddenly turned cold and his tone was unkind.

The officials who wanted to mourn Zhu Houzhao together with Wai Lang, a member of the Literary Selection Department of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, swallowed up all their words in an instant.

What heartbreaking words!

If they say that they don't care about the lives of the people at all, then they are dead. They will definitely be infamy for thousands of years, and they may even be beaten to death when they go out.

If they accept what Zhu Houzhao calls "transporting talents to the people", they will definitely be miserable for the rest of their lives.

They are not short of money, but they are also very short of money, because they need money in many places, such as visiting brothels, playing with thin horses, and buying land. They do not need to spend money. Without their official positions, no one will continue to give them money. How can they spend money, drink and do whatever they want?

This is an unsolvable situation. To advance is to die, and to retreat is also death.

"I have fully understood your love for the people, and this matter has been settled. After you return home, whether you are doing business or teaching, you will all contribute to the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty will remember you. Credit goes."

"In order to commend all the beloved ladies for their contribution, I will send Dongchang to escort the beloved ladies back to their hometowns. I will never allow bandits along the way to have the opportunity to harm all beloved ladies."

Zhu Houzhao made the final decision and clearly told those officials that your resignation is a foregone conclusion. Don't think about continuing to make trouble. Dongchang is not really going to escort you back to your hometown, but to monitor your dishonesty.

"My dear friends, if you still want to resign and return to your hometown to contribute to the development of the people, you can stand up boldly. I will give you permission."

Looking at the ministers, Zhu Houzhao said "sincerely" that by driving away those inactive sleeping dragons and phoenix chicks, his court would be cleaner and his work would be more efficient and effective.

The ministers are all silent and contributing to the development of the people. Don't be ridiculous. A good official should go back to his hometown to play with ordinary people. Don't they look easy to fool?

He also provides talents to the people, which is refreshing and refined. If you want to drive people away, just say it directly, why bother beating around the bush! The Dog Emperor is getting more and more excessive!

Even though they complained a lot in their hearts, none of them stood up. If they can be an official, why should they resign? They are not stupid!

Those officials who were agreed by Zhu Houzhao to resign did not really want to resign. They just wanted to use the resignation to force Zhu Houzhao to compromise. Unexpectedly, Zhu Houzhao did not follow common sense and provided talents to the people, blocking all their escape routes.

, so that they can only return to their hometowns to provide for their retirement in advance.

"Tyrant, tyrant, Shang, Zhou, Sui and Yang are not as evil as you. Under your leadership, the Ming Dynasty will come to an end sooner or later."

Seeing that there was no room for maneuver, those officials immediately collapsed and yelled at Zhu Houzhao. It would undoubtedly be more uncomfortable for them to let them resign and return to their hometowns than to kill them.

After ten years of studying hard in a cold window, they have not yet made enough money or built enough land, so they have to return to their hometown to retire, which makes their mentality explode. Then their ten years of hard study in a cold window have been in vain!

Being an official for thousands of miles is just for money, and even for ten years of hard work, making money, making money, making money, making money crazily. This is the basic style of the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty. In their eyes, there is no world, no common people, and no national justice.

, there is only one word "money", as long as it is related to money, there is nothing they can't do.

This is also the fundamental reason why Zhu Houzhao wantonly suppressed the civil servant group, suppressed the Jiangnan gentry group, canceled many preferential treatment policies for scholars, and appointed Wang Yangming to implement reforms. If these officials were allowed to continue to cause trouble, the Ming Dynasty would be over sooner or later.

"It seems that the beloved ladies are eager to do something for the people. If someone comes, why not take the beloved ladies down to rest? They are the future of our Ming Dynasty, and we cannot let them have physical problems."

Zhu Houzhao told lies with his eyes open, and directly ordered people to take away the dozens of officials who had been removed from various ministries of the imperial court.

A group of palace warriors rushed into the Fengtian Palace and dragged the officials away violently. No matter how they whined and cursed, it was of no use. They were already abandoned in this power game.

The incident of officials resigning and going on strike, which had caused a stir for a while, was suppressed by Zhu Houzhao, and by the way he also eliminated a number of court bugs.

Zhu Houzhao would not give up on those officials who did nothing and even opposed him. Driving them out of the court was only the first step. There would be more ruthless things waiting for them later. If they didn't make them go to hell,

How could Zhu Houzhao give up so easily if he died?

"My dear friends, you still have something to report!"

Zhu Houzhao looked at the ministers with a smile, his smile was very sunny, but in the eyes of the ministers, he was a naked smiling tiger. What was hidden under the warm sunshine was a decisive and ruthless attitude that would eat people without spitting out their bones.

With a lot of lessons learned from the past, the ministers who had a lot of opinions on Wang Yangming's reform did not dare to act rashly at this time. It was a trivial matter to criticize the emperor, and the most important thing was to lose his official position and his life.

People in the Xungui Group all set their sights on Cheng Guogong Zhu Fu. The British Duke Zhang Mao ignored them. Cheng Guogong was the leader of their Xungui Group. If he didn't say anything at this time, who would speak?

Zhu Fu secretly scolded mmp in his heart. It was okay to let him do small tricks behind his back, but he didn't have the guts to confront the emperor head-on. The interests of the three major battalions of the capital were very important, but they were not as important as himself.

He simply pretended to be deaf and mute, deliberately pretending not to see the expectant looks in the eyes of many distinguished nobles, and stared at the ground with his head lowered, as if there was a peerless beauty on the ground, which made him very intoxicated.

"Mr. Cheng Guo, you seem to have something to say!"

Zhu Fu didn't want to confront Zhu Houzhao head-on, but Zhu Houzhao didn't want to let him go. His simple words scared Zhu Fu to the point where he broke out in cold sweat, thinking that Zhu Houzhao was going to attack him.

Why Empress Dowager Zhang went to Zhu Houzhao to persuade him to give up the reform. No one else knew, but Zhu Fu knew it very well, because he was the one who advocated the harm of reform to Empress Dowager Zhang.

Unconsciously, cold sweat had covered his forehead. Zhu Fu felt that he might be finished. He encouraged the Queen Mother to rebel against the emperor. However, he was suspected of alienating the royal family. His crime was serious. If Zhu Houzhao persisted in pursuing the case, he would not even be able to keep his title of Duke Cheng.

he.
