Jinyi champion

The emperor said that he would call people to ask them carefully, but of course he would not ask them in person, nor would he call people to the court meeting.

By saying this, I am actually telling the ministers present that I am going to take them all to the imperial prison for "questioning". When the time comes, I will ask them in a friendly manner, or use torture. It is up to you ministers to decide. That is my territory. I said The final decision.

I can't deal with you, and I can't deal with those Hanlin officials and supervisors who look noble but have no real power?
"Your Majesty, this is inappropriate."

Lin Jun, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, heard the emperor's intention and hurried out to dissuade him.

Zhu Sidao: "Lin Qing's family governed the country with benevolence and filial piety, which is the rule set down by Emperor Gaozu. It has been like this in any dynasty in China since ancient times. It is not my arbitrariness."

"Regarding the posthumous title and setting up a funeral for the Empress Dowager, it was decided by all the nobles in the court together with me, and even you have no objection. Those imperial officials and supervisors who claim to be upright, as well as some officials of science and Taoism , but picks and criticizes me in every possible way, dare to ask, are they questioning this matter, or questioning whether my throne is right?"

A speech can be regarded as eloquent.

Who told you not to object?

Now those middle- and lower-level civil servants and scholars are booing, if I don't give them a little color, they will think I'm easy to bully.

Now I want to give them a big crime, that is, they question the legitimacy of my throne, and want to use this to attack my family background and succession, otherwise why would they attack me like this because of my wholehearted respect for filial piety? ?
This incident was not initiated by me. My grandfather and cheap daddy Emperor Xianzong and Emperor Xiaozong both did this. How come it is my turn to be illegal and have to be made things difficult by you?

How dare you say it wasn't against me?

As soon as the emperor's words came out, all the officials present were numb.

If I had known earlier, the court should have opposed it to the end. This gave the little emperor an excuse to deal with those poor upright imperial officials and supervisors. This is harming them.

Everyone was waiting for Yang Tinghe to come out to support those people.

But Yang Ting was silent about this matter.

Not for anything else, because the emperor was also unreasonable sometimes.

When Yang Tinghe was unreasonable, he forced the emperor to take back the sales of mines and the collection of mine taxes. At that time, he didn't give the emperor any face at all.

But now the emperor is also telling him, don't you think the Ninth Five-Year Lord has no temper at all?
Now I want to use "reasonable" means to make a fuss in the private land of the imperial prison, to kill chickens and monkeys, and you are the monkey being warned. You don't think it will be useful to speak for those students, do you?

As long as you come out and say it, then I will torture them and let them know that all of this was caused by you.

If you come out and say something, you are harming them.

You have the ability to come out and say it!

It is precisely because Yang Tinghe clearly sees this, and understands that the emperor's so-called want to show some color to those literati such as Hanlin and Jiansheng who are jointly named, but in fact he wants to show him Yang Tinghe's eyes.

Yang Tinghe knew that he should not come forward at this time, and should use a gentle way to persuade those ministers who are close to the emperor, such as Sun Jiao, Liu Chun, and even Queen Mother Zhang to come forward to persuade...

Although Yang Tinghe felt that perhaps the little emperor's move was also aimed at Empress Dowager Zhang.

The emperor was in a fit of anger, and it was useless to persuade him.

……

……

"Something happened, something happened!"

The people in the Hanlin Academy were very emotional and ready to finish their day's work. Many people didn't even come to the meeting, or they didn't plan to come that day.

As a result, news came that Jin Yiwei had arrived at the gate of the Imperial Academy and was arresting people against the list.

As the "Chief Initiator", Zhu Hao will of course be questioned, and he is definitely the one with the biggest crime. Immediately, Jin Yiwei came in and wanted to take Zhu Hao down.

It was not Luo An who was in charge of arresting people, but Wang Zuo of Jin Yiwei Qianhu.

Wang Zuo didn't have much contact with Zhu Hao, but he was very clear about the character in front of him.
He wanted to go over and push Zhu Hao to the ground, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "Remember, here are all the noble officials of my Ming Dynasty, and you must not use violence unless it is absolutely necessary."

One of his subordinates asked puzzledly, "Wang Qianhu, what is the last resort?"

Wang Zuo said: "Is there a need to ask? Of course they encountered fierce resistance, but I believe they will not...Everyone, there is an imperial decree from above, please go to the Fusi Yamen in Beizhen for questioning, please!"

Yu Chengxun just came in from the outside. He came to work. Seeing that several people in the editorial room were taken down, he hurried over and asked, "What's going on here?"

"Your Excellency...?"

Wang Zuo looked at Yu Chengxun.

Yu Chengxun said: "I am Yu Chengxun, the editor of the Imperial Academy. Dare I ask why you have arrested people?"

Xiu Zhuan Lun, who was also taken down, said: "Maogong is a decree made by His Majesty himself, or it was a joint matter before."

Yu Chengxun immediately reacted.

Wang Zuo sneered at Yu Chengxun. This time, Yang Shen deliberately refused to let people who were close to him in the Imperial Academy join the name, so as not to involve Yang Tinghe in this matter as much as possible. Now the emperor ordered to arrest people, and Yu Chengxun was another An instigator was actually not on the arrest list.

This annoyed those present.

Yang Shen and you, Yu Chengxun, were obviously responsible for all this, but now that something has happened, you are watching from the other side?Feelings, you knew in advance that it would be dangerous to do this, so you deliberately let us come out to die, right?
"Hanlin, please."

Wang Zuo was also polite, and took several people out of the editorial room.

At the same time, I have to go to another room to get people.

……

……

Zhu Hao and others were taken to Fusi Prison in Jinyiwei North Town.

In terms of treatment...

Nature varies.

Those who are usually close to Yang Shen, or those who like to seek out camps everywhere and try their best to curry favor with Yang Tinghe, are sent directly to the prison to serve them. Some marginal people live in the single room of the officials under house arrest and do not need to enter the prison door. As for Zhu Hao... …then go directly to the back hall to see Zhu Chen, the commander of Jin Yiwei, who is in command and envoy.

"Mr. Zhu."

Seeing Zhu Hao coming, Zhu Chen hurriedly got up and greeted, "According to your order, the people from the old yamen were used, so I don't know you, so I didn't offend you, right?"

The arrest was originally arranged by Zhu Hao, but now Zhu Chen was afraid that if he neglected Zhu Hao during the arrest process, he would inadvertently offend Zhu Hao, and he could not bear the consequences. …

Zhu Hao smiled and said, "It's okay, Wang Qianhu is doing very well."

At this time, Wang Zuo was not here, but was in charge of continuing to recruit people. Luo An, the governor of Beizhen Fusi, was in charge of coordinating, and he did not appear in Beizhen Fusi Yamen.

Right now, Chen Yin, the governor of Jinyiwei South Township, is standing beside him. He is also the deputy master of ceremony and guard of the royal residence, so he can be said to be a favorable competitor for the future commander.

Chen Yin asked for instructions: "Sir, now that someone has taken it, what should be the next step?"

Zhu Hao said: "Of course it can't be interrogated, it will make His Majesty fall into the whirlpool of public opinion... In fact, this is to deter the officials, the next step... close it first. Oh, by the way, arrange a separate room for me, I will be inside Also stay for two days.”

"How is this possible?"

Zhu Chen hurriedly said, "Doing that will neglect Mr.

Zhu Hao sighed: "It's all about acting. Since I'm the first person to initiate a joint name, I'm at the top of the list, and I have done a lot for Yang Ge and his son. Of course, I can't live a comfortable life at this time."

"Don't think that people outside don't know. Jinyiwei has a lot of eyeliners inside, and news can easily spread...plus, someone may come to visit the squad at any time, so it's easy to find clues. I happen to hide quietly. It's best to have someone The two passages can lead to the door of the cell where I live, so that even if His Majesty comes to discuss something with me, you won’t run into anyone who comes to visit the prison.”

"clear."

Zhu Chen was unambiguous, and directly took out the floor plan of Fusi's cell in Beizhen and handed it to Zhu Hao, "Sir, you choose it yourself. After you choose it, let someone clean it up."

Zhu Hao pointed to a room on the east side, and said, "Let's just arrange for someone to tidy it up here. It doesn't need to be fancy, but at least it should be clean and tidy. I just want to tell you about the next step."

……

……

Many Hanlin were arrested, and even many prisons in the Guozijian were sentenced to prison.

This had a great influence on the scholars of the capital.

Zhu Hao's brother-in-law, Sun Yuan, editor of the Imperial Academy, was not imprisoned because he obeyed his father's orders and did not sign his name.

When Sun Jiao heard that his son had come, he was annoyed for a while.

In the court, he knew that the emperor wanted to arrest him. Now that he was really sent to prison, his son was fine, but his son-in-law was arrested?
Even if Sun Jiao understood that Zhu Hao was playing tricks, he still felt that this matter was too big and might not end so easily.

As for his son coming to the yamen of the household department in person, he felt that it was reckless. You are an editor of the Imperial Academy, and you came to the household department to find me if you have nothing to do. Do you really think that your father can solve everything?

So Sun Jiao sent people out directly to spread the word, and asked his son to go home and wait, and he would go back at noon to talk.

Sun House.

Sun Jiao didn't come back until the afternoon, and Sun Yuan was already anxiously waiting.

"...Father, Jing Dao...has been ordered to go to prison. I'm afraid that he...will be tortured. Yang Yongxiu stays out of this matter. Everyone thinks that Jing Dao is the mastermind."

Sun Yuan was very anxious about Zhu Hao's situation.

In the past, he didn't think Zhu Hao was a relative, but now he felt that Zhu Hao seemed to be firmly bound to the Sun family.

Sun Yuan already regarded Zhu Hao as one of his own.

Sun Jiao made a disdainful voice, and asked back, "Torture? He tortured himself? Hmph... Forget it, there are some things you don't understand, so don't mention them."

"Um?"

Sun Yuan had a question mark on his face.

Torture yourself?

What does this mean?Because Zhu Hao was born in a family of thousands of households in Jinyiwei, will he receive preferential treatment?Why is my father so vague?
"What's the situation in Hanyuan now?"

asked Sun Jiao.

Sun Yuandao: "In the Imperial Academy, all the signatures were basically taken down, while the supervisors only took a few representatives... As for the officials of the Kodao, even if there were some who participated in the joint signature, they were basically not taken down. Your Majesty may have intentionally targeted the members of the Imperial Academy this time."

"Oh."

As a bystander, Sun Jiao was stunned by this, "The target is the Hanlin Academy? No, from my father's point of view, the target is Yang Yongxiu, right? Don't be impatient, my father will go and see if it is true. What's the situation...you just put your mind at ease, as if this never happened!"
