Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 833 Make trouble and be scolded

Wynn's appearance temporarily relieved King Xiang's siege.

Seeing him coming out with people, all the ministers and clans surrounded him one after another.

"Eunuch, what does your majesty say?"

Mr. Hu was the quickest to respond and asked the most concerned questions for everyone.

Seeing this situation, Wynn first cupped his hands, and then said.

"Your Majesty ordered to summon King Xiang to meet him!"

"what?"

"What?"

"Elder-in-law, did you say something wrong?"

As soon as the words fell, all the disciples of the clan below suddenly exploded and became restless.

On the other hand, King Xiang was a little surprised.

Seeing that the gang of clan children were filled with righteous indignation and the scene was showing signs of getting out of control, Hu Wei at the side made a decisive decision and stepped forward.

"Eunuch Huai, Your Majesty can tell, why did you call Lord Xiang?"

Wynn didn't seem to expect that these clan children were so excited, he hesitated for a moment, and said.

"Your Majesty said that matters concerning Zongxue should be managed by Da Zong Zheng. Since something happened to Zong Xue, Da Zong Zheng must be summoned first for questioning."

As he said that, he seemed to have realized that the grievances of the subordinate clan children were not light, so he added.

"Dear clan members, don't worry. Your Majesty has always been fair. After asking Prince Xiang, he will call the clan members to ask again. He won't just listen to one side of the story."

However, it's okay if you don't say this, and once you finish speaking, it aroused the emotions of everyone present, and they stepped forward one after another, saying.

"No, why ask him first?"

"That is, we are the ones being tortured, why did His Majesty ask him first?"

"You can't let Your Majesty see King Xiang first. This guy is very eloquent and is the best at bewitching the saints. The last time he went back to the Min Palace to make trouble before the spirit, it was he who advanced the slander under His Majesty!"

"That's right, this kind of person is not worthy to be Da Zongzheng at all."

"Get out of the way, we want to see His Majesty!"

The children of the clan became more and more excited, seeing signs of breaking into the palace in the next moment, seeing this situation, Hu Wei secretly said something bad, it seems that today's matter may not be resolved.

However, now that he's here, he can't make the situation worse.

Taking a step forward, Hu Ming said loudly.

"Everyone, don't be impatient."

Immediately, he turned around and said to Wynn.

"Eunuch Huai, since a group of clan members are asking for an audience, His Majesty only summoned Prince Xiang, fearing that something might be wrong, I trouble you to make another trip and report the situation here to His Majesty."

"It's… okay."

Wynn hesitated for a moment, cupped his hands, turned around and walked into the palace gate.

Not long after, Wynn turned around again and said.

"Your Majesty has a decree to summon all clans to the Hall of Martial Arts!"

As a result, the people below breathed a sigh of relief, took a step forward, and prepared to go to the palace gate.

However, the children of the previous clan went in, but when Hu Wei and others wanted to go in, they were stopped by Wynn.

"Uncle Da Zong, gentlemen, His Majesty has roughly understood what happened in Zongxue. It was nothing more than some students who couldn't bear the hardship and came to complain. ..."

Before Wynn could finish speaking, a heavy drum sounded without warning.

"Boom"!
"Boom"!
"Boom"!
The sound of muffled drums seemed to be beating on everyone's hearts, and even a group of clan disciples who were rushing to the palace couldn't help but stop.

As for the ministers standing outside the palace gate, they turned their eyes to the source of the drum sound after being stunned for a moment.

If the sound of the drum was changed to a year or two ago, the elders might have to react, but in the past year or two, they are not unfamiliar with the sound of the drum at all!

Dengwen Drum!
Since the emperor ascended the throne, the Dengwen drum has been played twice.

For the first time, it was Zhu Yinyu, the eldest son of Zhennan Prince, who complained for his father.

At that time, the big case of the clan shook the government and the public. The two county kings were imprisoned on the high wall of Fengyang. The title of Chen Mao is not lost, and its influence is not insignificant.

As for the second time, it was Zhang Fu, the British government, who complained for his younger brother Zhang Fu. Compared with the first time, its influence was even worse than that of the first time.

Seventeen honorable ministers were reprimanded by the court, and the emperor was furious. It even led to the heinous case of Zhang Fu and others forging imperial edicts and leaking military information, which indirectly had a huge impact on the entire court situation.

Now, it's the third time!
The Dengwen Drum was set up outside the Meridian Gate, and everyone followed the prestige, and at some point, next to the Dengwen Drum in the distance, there was a fat man in python clothes holding a drumstick.

Min Wang Zhu Huixun?
All the ministers looked at each other, and they all saw the awe in each other's eyes.

First, something happened to Zongxue, and the children of the clan went to the palace to file a complaint. Now, Zhu Huixun, who had been dormant in the capital for a long time, beat the Dengwen drum.

All these incidents showed that something big was going to happen today!
The sound of Dengwen's drum quickly attracted the attention of a large number of people. After a while, two teams of Jinyi guards came out from the palace gate and went straight to Dengwen's drum.

At the same time, several imperial guards who were guarding the Dengwen Drum rushed into the palace to report.

The two teams of Jinyiwei surrounded the Dengwen Drum, but Zhu Huixun was not afraid at all. He dropped the drumstick casually, took a deep breath, walked towards the palace gate with his head held high.

"I have seen Lord Min!"

With the imperial decree of the emperor, the Ministry of Rites naturally did not dare to neglect it. More than a month ago, the Ministry of Rites had prepared the grand ceremony of King Min's succession.

So now, the person in front of him is no longer Zhennan King, but the serious Lord of Min Fan, Min King Zhu Huixun!
Walking calmly and leisurely to the palace gate, all the ministers gave way one after another, even Hu Wei lowered his head and cupped his hands to say hello.

Of course, Zhu Huixun was not an arrogant person. Although he was wearing a luxurious pro-dynasty uniform, he still earnestly returned the gift to everyone present.

Looking at the Imperial Army and Jinyiwei who were all over the square due to the sound of Dengwen's drum, Hu Yan sighed silently, then stepped forward and asked.

"Lord Min, you are..."

Zhu Huixun had a simple and honest smile on his chubby face, as if he didn't realize it, because what he did just now caused a severe impact, but he said calmly.

"I have something to report to Your Majesty!"

Ah this...

I have to say that Zhu Huixun's answer made everyone present dumbfounded.

What is the reason to report something?

They thought that there was some shocking case in the Min Palace, but in the end, they had something to report?

If you have something to do, write a memorandum and hand over the sign, please see, which one is not good, so you have to make such a big fuss?

All the ministers were speechless for a moment, and were about to ask again, when two teams of servants hurried over to the palace gate.

"Your Majesty has a decree to summon Min Wang Zhu Huixun, six ministers, Zuo Du Yushi, cabinet ministers, Cheng Guo Gong Zhu Yi, Feng Guo Gong Li Xian, Ningyang Marquis Chen Mao, Changping Marquis Yang Hong, Jing'an Bo Fan Guang, Uncle Xin Cheng, Zhao Rong and others will see you."

What a big deal!

Hearing the list, all the ministers present turned their eyes to Zhu Huixun who was standing in the middle with a calm face.

When Dengwen drums sounded, there must be a complaint or a memorial to the emperor's case. If it is only related to clan affairs, then it is necessary to call Min Wang in.

But now, the emperor wants to summon almost all important civil and military ministers in the DPRK, including Ningyang Hou and Changping Hou, who have no titles but no titles. This can only show that this matter is not simply involving To the imperial clan is a major event that needs to be discussed by the court civil and military...

Not long after, in the Hall of Martial Heroes.

"See your majesty, long live my emperor, long live!"

On the throne, the Son of Heaven was dressed in swallow clothes and a crown of wings, with a calm expression on his face, said.

"Be flat!"

Then, all the clan ministers stood up.

It should be said that the Hall of Martial Arts is not too small as a place for daily government affairs.

However, it still seems a little crowded to accommodate so many people.

As for the reason, it was because besides a group of ministers of civil and military affairs, there were dozens of clan disciples crowded in this hall.

After making such a fuss for so long, all the ministers more or less knew why these clan children came here.

Originally, they were quite interested in the rebellion and denunciation of King Xiang by these clan children, but now, with the incident of King Min beating the drums, they were somewhat less interested in these clan children.

Just like what the Son of Heaven said at the beginning, this incident is, to put it bluntly, nothing more than a spat.

Perhaps King Xiang's management method in Zongxue was indeed inappropriate, but after all, the son of the clan who cut his veins did not die. Taking a step back, even if he died, King Xiang couldn't be blamed entirely.

After all, from the point of view, King Xiang formulated such a system to urge the children of the clan to make progress. Even if they did not take care of some children who were psychologically vulnerable, it was at most improper discipline and could not be regarded as a serious crime.

Of course, if it is serious, it will arouse the dissatisfaction of the disciples of Zongxue and make trouble before the imperial court.

However, these are all children, and they were just impulsive. If they were to make a fuss and severely punish King Xiang, who is in charge of the clan affairs, it would be a mess.

In the future, if there is any problem with Zongxue, if you make a fuss in front of the imperial court, can you not condone it every time?

The ministers above the temple are all people who are familiar with court disputes, so they naturally know this truth, even if King Xiang wants to punish, it can't be because these children have caused a quarrel.

So, it's really just a small thing.

However, although the matter is small, it involves the clan and royal family after all, and it still needs to be resolved. With so many people crowded in the Hall of Martial Heroes, there is no way to discuss future court affairs.

The Son of Heaven was obviously aware of this, so he glanced around and spoke kindly to the clan disciples below.

"Dear clansmen, why are you surrounded outside the palace, begging to see me?"

As a result, there was a sudden commotion downstairs, and after a while, the person they pushed out turned out to be the carefree Zhu Fanzhi.

"Your Majesty, the matter is like this..."

It has to be said that although the prince of Xiangling is usually rude and aggressive, he is still very well-behaved in front of the emperor.

It didn't take long before I told what happened in Zongxue.

"Your Majesty, Jinduo is also of the Tian family blood. Although he is taciturn, he has a gentle personality and likes to read. He has always been in the clan and is highly praised."

"But now, a meek-tempered person like him has been forced to such a level, which shows how strict Zongxue is now?"

"Your Majesty established Zongxue with the intention of cultivating talents for my Zhu family, to protect the family, to be loyal to relatives, and to learn the virtues of saints. This kind of sincere grace is vast. However, since King Xiang took charge of Zongxue, He is becoming more and more strict with our sect disciples, and he has no sense of benevolence towards his clan relatives."

"He knew that many clan relatives depended on Lumi for their daily lives, but he still disregarded the righteousness of his relatives and withheld Lumi, causing complaints from the clan school. If this continues, all living beings will be anxious and worried every day. How can they study with peace of mind?"

"The ministers have the courage to come to see His Majesty today, hoping that His Majesty can make decisions for us, and then choose a benevolent person to take charge of Zongxue. If not, please allow Your Majesty to let us go back to the feudal land and live in peace. "

I have to say that Zhu Fanzhi has grown up during this time, and when he speaks, he is also one by one.

He must also know that it is impossible to blame King Xiang for Zhu Jinduo's suicide, so he said that he was too strict and ignored the accusation of family affection.

After these words were finished, many disciples of the clan below all seemed to agree very much, they couldn't help but nodded heavily, and there was a voice of agreement.

With such a scene, King Xiang looked gloomy, thought for a moment, and was about to argue, but unexpectedly, the emperor's soft shout came.

"Bullshit!"

King Xiang was slightly taken aback, because the Son of Heaven's words were not aimed at him, but at the clan's children below.

In addition to King Xiang, all the civil and military ministers present were also a little surprised.

It is true that King Xiang cannot be entirely blamed for this matter, but it cannot be said that King Xiang is not responsible. Since the troubles have broken out, he should be appeased first.

But what about His Majesty...

"Since ancient times, the road to study, how can there be ease and comfort?"

"I think back then, Emperor Taizu rose from the common people and won the world after hundreds of battles. The situation he faced at that time was much more difficult than yours?"

"If his old man is also like you, complaining everywhere, where did he come from Daming Sheji?"

On the throne, the Son of Heaven reprimanded all the disciples of the clan below with a look of hatred for iron.

"Uncle Xiang's management of Zongxue is indeed a bit strict, but that is nothing more than hoping that you will succeed in your studies and be able to protect my vassal screen for the great Ming Dynasty as soon as possible. Offend him."

"Since I have entrusted the clan mansion to Uncle Xiang, he can naturally handle the clan affairs on my behalf. Now you come to the palace to make troubles every now and then, where do you put the royal face?"

"What's more, Uncle Xiang is well-known in the clan. He is expected to serve as Da Zongzheng. Now you want me to replace Da Zongzheng just because of a mere few stones. Is it possible that being an official of the court is a game for fun?"

These words are not light, and after a while, all the disciples of the clan below, like eggplants beaten by frost, lost the momentum they had just arrived.

Of course, there are also a small number of people who clenched their fists tightly, looking dissatisfied, but, after all, this is in front of the emperor, no matter how brave they are, they dare not offend the emperor, so they can only wait bitterly. The complacent King Xiang looked at him as if he was going to eat him up.

At this time, the emperor seemed to calm down his anger gradually, and then he turned to King Xiang and said.

"Uncle Xiang, what do you think of this matter?"
