"Some people are emotional, some are depressed. However, most of them are depressed."

Luo Xin took a sip of porridge and said, "Has anyone ever found Xu Jie and Gao Gong in the cabinet?"

"Yes, of course there are, there are always."

Luo Xin couldn't help but frowned and said, "They gathered together to block the cabinet again?"

"There is no such thing. They did not go in series, but went in groups of three or three. And often the next batch goes, and the previous batch leaves immediately."

Luo Xin looked slightly slower and said, "They are still going to make a salary?"

"What a f*ck!" Tao Xingyan said: "At this time, who dares to raise the salary? One is afraid of being beaten by His Majesty, and the other cannot afford to lose face. If the salary increase is still raised at this time, wouldn't it tell the people of the world that they blocked the palace gate to increase their salary?

It was a bit messed up, but they didn't mention it themselves."

Luo Xin couldn't help but sighed slightly and said, "Why is this trouble?"

"yes!"

"What do they do in the cabinet?"

"If the cabinet wants to meet the saint, I ask the saint to release Hai Rui and others."

"Have Xu Jie and Gao Gong gone?"

"No!" Tao Xingyan shook his head and said, "But, Your Majesty has a decree passed on."

"Hmm?" Luo Xin raised his eyebrows in surprise.

He has been in prison for the past two days and really doesn't know what's happening outside.

"What did your Majesty say?"

"Your Majesty said that if any official appears outside the ban gate without being summoned, he will be arrested immediately. Once he is arrested, don't think about coming out again."

"Your Majesty is crazy?"

Luo Xin said in disbelief that although Emperor Jiajing was a person who was cold-hearted in nature before, he still had a bottom line in the end, and there was no bottom line at this time.

"Yes!" Hai Zheng said: "Isn't this treating the ministers like enemies?"

Luo Xin not only became worried and said, "Then... the ministers did not react? There would be no excitement and a bigger storm was brewing?"

In Luo Xin's opinion, those officials dared to block the door for their salary. At this time, Emperor Jiajing regarded the ministers as enemies, and I am afraid that the ministers would block the palace door even more angrily?

However, Zhang Xun and others shook their heads and said, "No!"

"This..." Luo Xin's face showed a look of surprise.

"It's normal to think about it." Zhang Xun sighed and said, "In fact, in the storm of great etiquette in the three years since His Majesty ascended the throne, the backbone of the Ming officials had been knocked down. Nearly forty years have passed, and if most officials were not unable to survive, they would not dare to block the door. Unexpectedly, this time, His Majesty was even more cruel. How could the officials who had no backbone block the palace gate again?

But if you have resentment in your heart, it is not a blessing for the Ming Dynasty!”

"Yes!" Yun Zhiqiu also sighed and said, "If you have resentment in your heart, you will naturally not work well. Sometimes you may even deliberately make things worse. The Ming Dynasty... will shake the foundation of the country in this way."

"By the way!" Tao Xingyan suddenly said, "The officials now have a lot of complaints about you."

"Me?" Luo Xin was surprised, then shook his head suddenly and sighed.

Tao Xingyan continued: "First, you didn't go to the palace to block the door, so you didn't stand in the same team as them. Of course, you are the third rank, but in fact, you are the second rank, and you are the second rank. But when all the people in the cabinet appeared later and you didn't appear yet, these people complained about you."

Luo Xin smiled and said, "You didn't go to block the palace gate, so they didn't complain about you?"

"How could it not be?" Zhang Xun, who was standing beside him, said with a wry smile: "Now few people are willing to talk to us."

"Haha..." Luo Xin laughed twice, then looked at Tao Xingyan.

Tao Xingyan continued: "Secondly, not only did you not block the palace gate, but you became the chief supervisor for the trial of this case. This is the opposite of all officials. They naturally have a lot of complaints about you."

Luo Xin said silently for a moment: "If you have complaints, you have complaints. I just hope that you can drag this matter down and rescue a few more of the fifty-three officials in the Heavenly Prison. You don't know the environment in the Heavenly Prison. Just those officials who are not diligent in their bodies, I think that if they are imprisoned for more than one month, most of them will die."

"They haven't admitted their mistake yet?"

"No!"

"Then... do you have a way?"

"Let's be hungry for another day. By the fourth day, it should be their weakest time, both physically and mentally. At that time, I will go and see it again. I won't go tomorrow, otherwise, these people will think that I am begging them. Alas..."

"Oh..." Zhang Xun also sighed and said, "Why are they doing? Even if they don't admit their mistakes and eventually die in prison or are killed by His Majesty, they will not make a slight reputation. Instead, they are stains and leave a terror for eternity."

"How could it be?" Luo Xin said in surprise.

"Let me say it." Yun Zhiqiu said: "No, you are busy trying this case and did not go to the wine shop. Now there is a rumor circulating in the wine shop. It is said that all officials blocked the palace gate because they saw the improvement of the Ming Dynasty's finances and the people lived and worked in peace. These officials felt that the people's lives had been better and their lives should be better, so they went to block the palace gate and demanded a salary increase. Then they were arrested by His Majesty."

"and……"

“And what?”

"There are many people in the wine shops and tea shops scolding the officials and guiding their remarks to situations that are extremely unfavorable to all officials. The reputation of the Ming officials was ruined.

The reputation of officials has never been ruined like this for thousands of years. Your Majesty is so cruel."

Luo Xin sat there blankly, and without thinking, he knew that this must have been the matter arranged by Emperor Jiajing to promote the Jinyiwei and Dongchang. This is very consistent with Emperor Jiajing's character.

If you don’t let me be good, I will make you even worse!

If you don’t let me have a good New Year, I will make you even worse.

"Bang!"

At this time, in Gao Gong's mansion, Gao Gong slapped the table hard, and his face became extremely gloomy.

"Your Majesty... This is really treating the ministers as enemies!" Two lines of old tears rolled down: "Your Majesty, what is the majesty of all officials when doing this? What is the dignity of all officials?

How to govern the world and how to face the people?

How will the people view all officials? From now on, officials will encounter exponential difficulties in governing the local area. Because the people no longer trust officials. How could an official be a corrupt official if he can block the palace gate for his salary?

Your Majesty, you are destroying the foundation of the Ming Dynasty! Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo

Xu Mansion.

Xu Jie's face was extremely gloomy, his brows frowned, but eventually turned into a helpless sigh. He murmured in a low voice:

"The Ming Dynasty is in danger!"
