Chapter 1748: Uprooted
Seeing Liu Jin showing a little shame, Ye Chunqiu didn't know whether Liu Jin was sincere or false, but smiled and said, "Actually, I'm thinking about something."
Liu Jin hurriedly said, "What's the matter?"
Ye Chunqiu thought about it and said, "It's time to this point. These people clearly don't want the Ye family to live a good life. I know that they are drunken men. On the surface, they are in the name of opposing the Ye family, but in fact they want to force my Lord Taishan to palace. What they want to do is actually seize power. After all, they are scholars. In fact, they are scholars in their hearts. I really don't want to be strong against them. But when things come to this point, if they continue to make them do whatever they want, sooner or later, the Ye family will suffer."
Speaking of this, his eyes suddenly fell on Liu Jin, and his eyes suddenly became gloomy. Then he said, "Eunuch Liu, the traitors said such words. Isn't this going to kill me, Ye Chunqiu? What would you do if you were me?"
Liu Jin couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. After a moment, his eyes suddenly widened a little and said, "I understand." He gritted his teeth and said, "I ordered someone to arrest a few scholars to serve as a warning to you."
Ye Chunqiu shook his head again and said, "Eunuch Liu, I don't mean that. I mean, I will capture all some people in one place and uproot the academy behind these people."
Liu Jin was stunned for a long time. He thought he was cruel enough, but after thinking for a long time, he realized that he could no longer keep up with Ye Chunqiu's thinking.
Damn...uprooted up and caught all in one go?
This is completely different from arresting a few scholars, sending them to the imperial prison, and beating them violently.
The involvement here is too big. Without His Majesty’s order, no, even His Majesty would not dare to stab this hornet’s nest.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a shake of the country's foundation. Behind these academies, there are countless important officials of the court involved, and behind those students, there are even support from various provinces, not to mention that behind each student is a family of gentry.
The more Liu Jin thought about it, the more frightened hesitated, and said, "This...is not right. Master, if you do this, something will happen."
Ye Chunqiu's face suddenly pulled down, and his voice seemed a little deeper: "What I am worried about now is that something will happen. I can't uproot them and let them yell like traitors and crimes of treason every day. Can the Ye family still gain a foothold? This is not a joke. They can oppose me, Ye Chunqiu. I admit it, but every word they say is to kill the heart. One bad thing is to ask hundreds of people in the Ye family to die without a place to die. At this point, isn't it just to die? If you can't uproot them, what's the use of arresting a few people? If you arrest a few, they will only make a big fuss."
Liu Jin couldn't help but tremble. He still fully understood that Ye Chunqiu was going to play the real thing.
But the problem is that even Liu Jin dared not.
Usually everyone says that Liu Jin is cruel enough, and Liu Jin always thinks this way, but never expected that Ye Chunqiu is even more cruel.
Liu Jin was silent for a moment and hesitated: "But I'm afraid..."
Ye Chunqiu interrupted lightly: "Wait for news, I will deal with the next thing. If these people want to make trouble, let them make trouble these days. Alas..."
Speaking of this, Ye Chunqiu actually sighed.
He never thought that he would have reached this point today.
In a sense, wasn’t I the same as those scholars outside? Ye Chunqiu at that time, he would never have thought that he would be so cruel today. He still remembered that at that time, he occasionally showed his playfulness, but today, he found that his heart was getting harder.
The word "Tribute" deeply hurt Ye Chunqiu.
He believed that he had done nothing wrong, because he at least saw the future of this world. He did so much and created many favorable conditions for the people of the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, for a greater future, he had to do great things and had to do great things. Perhaps to a certain extent, he also had his own selfishness, but in a sense, wasn't it for the whole world?
Do you really have to wait until the powerful ships and cannons of the great powers opened their country, suffered countless hardships, and were beaten again and again, and were beaten to the point where they even doubted themselves, and to the point where everyone looked up to the foreigners and let more people bear sacrifices, then they knew to change?
Thinking of the cruel consequences of retreating, he silently closed his eyes, and finally made up his mind.
If a person blocks kill people, Buddha blocks kill Buddha!
Then, he opened his eyes, and a sharp light flashed out of his eyes.
He glanced at Liu Jin. In his heart, he didn't like people like Liu Jin, but he knew that the only thing that could be used now was such a "despicable villain".
In just a moment, Ye Chunqiu gathered his sharpness on his body and said to Liu Jin with a kind look: "Those who accomplish great things are not limited to the details. Eunuch Liu, please go back first. You don't have to hide the news from your Majesty. Even if you want to hide some things, you can't hide them. Go back and withdraw all the people, don't make them look like they are facing a great enemy. Just a group of scholars with no power, don't be so careful."
Liu Jin had not completely digested Ye Chunqiu's words just now, and was still a little stunned. He had no choice but to obey Ye Chunqiu and said, "Then, I will say goodbye."
Liu Jin didn't know what would happen next, he couldn't guess it thoroughly, but after thinking about it, he had to wait for what he could do now.
When he came out of the Ye family, there was a commotion outside, and someone shouted: "This is the eunuch Bingbi, ha, sure enough, the Duke of Zhenguo and the eunuch party are colluding, they are colluding to rebel..."
Liu Jin was so angry that he was half-hearted that he had a fierce look on his eyes. But when he thought that Ye Chunqiu asked him to wait for the news, he finally stopped talking.
Bang...
At this moment, a stone from somewhere hit the crane cart. With a clang, the crystal glass actually cracked in response to the sound, and the fragments of the glass splashed everywhere, and Liu Jin suddenly had blood.
He subconsciously covered his face, his face was covered with blood. He suddenly became furious and shouted loudly: "Bitch, come, come!"
Those scholars burst into laughter.
