Chapter 224: A Civil Servant Bound by the Emperor's Interests Shows Mission: Impossible
Chapter 224: The performance of civil servants tied to the interests of the emperor, Mission Impossible Ye Chengxue
Shi Fenglai and Zhang Ruitu's two ministers collapsed on the ground, their faces as if dead.
They didn't expect this would be the ending.
Therefore, the two of them are very puzzled now, why the ending is like this.
Isn’t Your Majesty no longer allowed Xichang and does not support Xilin Academy’s behavior in Jiangnan?
After all, even the uncle was sentenced to the imperial prison for this.
Eunuch Wei was awarded nine thousand years old, which was quite obvious that he surpassed Zhang Guojiu and became the emperor's new favorite minister.
This undoubtedly means that His Majesty is dissatisfied with Mr. Zhang.
But why can Xilin Academy and Xichang turn around because the Japanese shogunate takes the initiative to rebel against the Japanese pirate leader and the Donglin scholar?
Even Eunuch Wei’s godson Li Fan bet the wrong treasure because of this.
This obviously shows that Eunuch Wei was also fooled by His Majesty?
how so!
What is Your Majesty’s mind?!
If he had not been dissatisfied with Zhang Guojiu and the Xilin Academy and Xichang behind Zhang Guojiu, why would he have imprisoned Zhang Guojiu and even named Wei Zhongxian nine thousand years old?!
Could it be that Your Majesty is deliberately setting up a plan to trap yourself and others in so that you can catch them all in one go?
It's terrible to think about it carefully!
Shi Fenglai and Zhang Ruitu both looked at Tianqi with fear for a moment.
After all, the emperor who likes carpentry is not something that he or she can imagine.
"You Donglin people have the courage to collude with foreigners to murder Xilin scholars, why don't you have the courage to really die? You have to make everyone have to be different now!"
When Shi Fenglai was dragged down, he couldn't help but curse at Yang Chengjun and cursed at Chen Zizhuang: "Whose surnamed Chen, how much benefit did the Xichang give you? He actually spoke for them, spoke for those unrest parties and the unruly people, and helped them harm us! You are a literati and a wise man!"
Neither Yang Chengjun nor Chen Zizhuang paid attention.
Yang Chengjun frankly admitted his sins in front of Apocalypse, because of his cherishing life, and hoped that Apocalypse could be lenient to him.
Chen Zizhuang only silently said in his heart: "I did this for justice and for the people of the country. It was not because the West Factory bought me. I could not have sold myself because my uncle's Industrial Department gave me the 20,000 taels of silver! All of this is for justice!"
Thinking of this, Chen Zi felt much more at ease.
Zhang Ruitu didn't shout. He now knew that nothing was useful for his shouting, because the fact was obvious. From beginning to end, all of them were played by Tianqi and Zhang Guojiu. Unless they were really willing to make the fish to be slaughtered, they would eventually be played by him.
Hu Maowen, Wang Qingye and other civil officials who were really from the Jiangnan gentry were still a little unwilling to be willing to mobilize the people to equalize the fields and work in Jiangnan. They were not able to be classified as a rebellion party, nor could they let the court send a large army to suppress it.
Therefore, Hu Maowen still shouted anxiously before his death: "Your Majesty! Even if I am guilty, if the court really does not suppress the Xilin Rebellion, the gentry in Jiangnan will be disagreeable with the court! Please think twice!"
Wang Qingye even threatened directly: "Your Majesty really wants to make Jiangnan more chaotic, but will he lose Jiangnan from now on?"
"Your Majesty! In the eyes of my ministers, all the kings under the heavens are kings, and all the kings and ministers are kings. Therefore, Jiangnan, the gentry in Jiangnan, is your majesty's Jiangnan! If your majesty does not follow the will of Jiangnan gentry and the gentry in Jiangnan does not recognize Your Majesty as the king, then these Jiangnan gentry are no different from rebels! They should be punished!"
As the mouthpiece of the reformist school, Chen Zizhuang continued to talk about it at this time.
Tianqi said in agreement: "What you said is very true, and those who have issued an order to the governor of Zhejiang Province. If you have private soldiers and privately build firearms and ignore the laws of the court, you should all be eliminated by rebels!"
"Retreat!"
After Tianqi announced his retreat from the court, Shi Fenglai, Zhang Ruitu, Hu Maowen, Wang Qingye, Li Fan and other Japanese pirate criminals were all pressed to the ground, and then with the knife falling, these people were all beheaded.
Almost half of the officials of the Jiangnan gentry in the court disappeared.
Li Guopu was secretly glad that he did not stand up in time and ended up with a different body and head.
Mainly, Li Guopu did not expect that Shi Fenglai and Zhang Ruitu, who were usually smarter than him, would come out so quickly to criticize Xilin Academy in the court today!
So before he could speak, he would criticize Xilin Academy with an eloquence, which made him not have time to speak until the end.
Li Guopu later learned that Shi Fenglai and Zhang Ruitu first learned that Wei Zhongxian had been named Nine Thousand Years, and even secretly devoted themselves to Wei Zhongxian's disciples, preparing to be Wei Zhongxian's lackeys. Then he was in a hurry to take the lead in taking the lead, so he directly criticized Xilin Academy.
But because he was injured by his uncle, he was injured at home and did not know about this. Shi Fenglai and Zhang Ruitu deceived him again, which made him not have time to make a clear statement and surrender to Wei Zhongxian, and he was not in a hurry to come out to bite Zhang Guojiu's Xilin Academy, so he finally escaped.
Li Guopu learned about it by introducing Ye Chengxue to his disciple through his introduction, and therefore said to Ye Chengxue: "So that's the case. It seems that I am still a blessing in disguise. Fortunately, Zhang Guojiu slapped me."
Ye Chengxue instigated: "Even so, the elders are willing to suffer this anger? Looking at this dynasty, no relatives of the foreigners are so domineering!"
Li Guopu didn't know Ye Chengxue's true identity, so he just thought that Ye Chengxue hated Zhang Gui because of his position. He said, "Young people like you are too angry! Some things must be tolerated, and small things will cause trouble! This time, Hu Maowen and others are examples. Don't listen to the wind or the rain. Being an official should be very cautious."
"If you continue to be cautious, the Ming Dynasty will be completely over!"
Ye Chengxue snorted.
Li Guopu was not angry because Ye Chengxue said wildly. Instead, he felt that he was a very bloody young man, so he advised earnestly: "You must remember that in this world, the so-called country and country are not important, what is important is power! Without power, you can't do anything. The reason why he, Zhang Guojiu, can reach this point today is because he has power!"
Ye Chengxue glanced at Li Guopu: "Is that true?"
"How could I lie to you? You are the young man I have always valued!"
Li Guopu said, "We have to wait a little longer, wait for the opportunity. If we wait for him for ten or twenty years, sooner or later, the world will be a powerful and powerful world. The common people will still be the will of the emperor, and will not be diverted by the will of the emperor."
Ye Chengxue's expression became solemn.
Li Guopu said at this time: "But I am old and may not be able to wait for that day."
As he said that, Li Guopu took out a secret letter from his sleeve and handed it to Ye Chengxue: "The people in this letter told me that they want to do a big thing. You should first observe what big thing is and find an opportunity to inform Your Majesty. You can use this letter as a letter to make friends with the emperor and strive to let Your Majesty use you more. In this way, you will have the opportunity to eliminate traitors and revenge in the future."
After hearing this, Ye Chengxue bowed and said, "Thank you, Master!"
"What's the big deal?"
After Zhang Gui learned about the news brought by Ye Chengxue through Zhou Neng, he asked.
After hearing Zhang Gui's question here, Zhou Neng said, "Ye Chengxue's theory, the letter did not say it."
At this time, the family came in: "A letter appeared outside, and the letter said, "I want to find the father-in-law and come to a place outside the city where I can help Huang Village!"
After hearing this, Zhou Neng hurriedly looked at Zhang Gui: "So, has the old marquis been kidnapped?"
"Your Majesty is here!"
At this moment, a voice from an internal official suddenly came from outside.
Before Zhang Gui could order people to open the middle gate, Tianqi called out from the corner gate: "I already know that Wei Zhongxian also found such a letter in Xiyuan! I don't know who it was, but he dared to kidnap my Yue Weng."
Zhang Guize said: "It seems that it is necessary for me to lead the troops there in person."
Tianqi nodded and said, "Let Tian Ergeng take the Jinyiwei with you, and you will be controlled!"
So, Zhang Gui then took his servants and Tian Ergeng and other Jinyiwei out of the city and came to a place called Huangcun.
At this time, it was getting late. When Zhang Gui and others arrived, they saw that there was a person similar to Zhang Guoji hanging at the entrance of Huangcun Village. There were seven or eight people standing around Zhang Guoji with knives. One of the big man wearing armor and riding a horse stood at the entrance of the village and shouted: "Uncle Zhang Guoji! Why bring so many people? We just want to talk to you."
Zhang Gui said: "I brought these people to get you!"
As he said that, Zhang Gui waved his hand: "Catch someone!"
So Zhou Neng took Zhang Gui's servants to get the people first, while Tian Ergeng led the Jinyiwei to surround him from both wings.
The man was shocked: "Do you want the order of Lingzun?"
