Ci Jinzhi

Chapter 341 The imperial staff appears again

As soon as Xin You said these words, the four people in Hua Daizhao were stunned.

“Ms.

"Yeah, just like before."

"No -" Ci Daizhao wiped his face, thinking how could this be the same as before!

Hua Daizhao asked with concern: "Does Zhangyuan Xie know?"

"I just went to see Zhang Xie."

Hua Daizhao was relieved: "I drew a picture of a lady, please Xin Daizhao taste it."

Xin You followed the painter to his seat and admired the paintings spread out on the table.

"The painting skills are even more exquisite..."

Ci Daizhao looked at Xin You and the painting Daizhao, but they still felt unreal.

"Ahem, Miss Xin——"

Xin You looked at Ci Daizhao and said with a faint smile: "We are all colleagues, so you should call me Xin Daizhao."

The west hall of Daizhao is quite spacious. Although there are five sets of tables and chairs, it is not crowded. Xin You's seat was in a corner inside, slightly farther away from the seats of the other four people.

But no matter how far away they are, they are still in the same room. Will they really work with a young girl in the future?

When it was time to go to the lower office, Xin You took the first step and asked the question like this.

Hua Daizhao glanced at him and said in a confused tone: "We don't have anything to do every day."

Dai Zhao paused in his words and took a deep breath: "It doesn't matter whether you have anything to do or not. What matters is that Xin Dai Zhao is a woman. Being with us all day long will make people comment, right?"

Hua Daizhao shook his head.

"What's the matter, Brother Hua?"

"It's not said that young people are not afraid of people's opinions. Brother Ci, you are still afraid of people's opinions."

"No -" Ci Tai Zhao could hardly breathe. Looking at Chess Tai Zhao and Divination Tai Zhao, nothing happened.

Is he abnormal?

"I mean, Xin Daizhao will be criticized."

Qi Daizhao spoke: "Xin Daizhao would not come if she was afraid of people's comments, and no one can force her."

Ci Daizhao nodded in a daze. It was not until the four of them left the west hall that they were surrounded by people asking about Xinyou's arrival. When they heard that she would continue to work as an errand in the future, they all looked unacceptable, and the remaining confidence was restored.

Sure enough, it’s not him who is abnormal!

The news that Xin You came to the Hanlin Academy spread among the officials at lightning speed.

I don't know how many people left the office and did not go home, discussing the matter in the name of entertaining colleagues.

"I thought I had recovered my daughter's body and had been quiet since then."

"Let me see, Miss Xin is the kind of person who was born to be influential. From Miss Kou to Mr. Xin and then to Miss Xin, nothing is earth-shattering. Storytellers in teahouses and restaurants in the capital hope to make a living by commenting on Miss Xin's deeds. Woolen cloth."

"That's true. Miss Xin can save the third prince even when she goes to the palace for a banquet. It will be an interesting story that will spread among the people in the future."

"But Miss Xin will go to the Hanlin Academy every day from now on. I'm afraid I won't feel comfortable working with her, right?"

"Do you really think that Miss Xin, a woman, can stay in the Hanlin Academy for a long time? Just watch, someone will definitely stand up and oppose it tomorrow."

This was indeed the case. The next morning, two officials came forward to express their opposition to the matter.

"The Hanlin Academy is full of talented people with Jinshi background. It is really unbecoming for Miss Xin to mix among them as a woman. I hope your Majesty will exercise more restraint and not disappoint the scholars in the world..." Liu Gai was impassioned and upright in his words.

Emperor Xingyuan felt annoyed just looking at this man. He remembered that this thing was beaten by General Bai because of his ugly words, and he was brought to him. Now that the time limit for the fine has not passed, it pops up again?

"Is it inappropriate?" Emperor Xingyuan asked one word after another when Liu GUI finished talking.

Anyone who is familiar with Emperor Xingyuan knows that the emperor was angry.

Emperor Xingyuan was indeed very angry.

It's okay to talk about other people, but he actually dares to say that his daughter is unbecoming?

This will teach this rebellious minister to be a good man.

Liu Gai was full of excitement during the incident and felt that he was speaking out for the scholars all over the world: "Of course it is unbecoming. There is no reason for women and men to serve as officials in the same room. It is still a holy place in the hearts of scholars like the Hanlin Academy. This is a reflection of thousands of people who have studied hard in the cold window. Insult from a student——"

"Ha." A sneer sounded.

Liu Gai's impassioned mood paused, and he subconsciously looked for the sneer, and then met Emperor Xingyuan's cold eyes.

"Back when I was fighting in the south and north, there were female generals and female soldiers who served as officers in the same camps as men and fought on the same battlefields. Now it has only been twenty years, and serving as officers in the same room is an insult to the world's scholars?"

It was okay if he didn't mention scholars, but the more he mentioned scholars, the more angry Emperor Xingyuan became.

There was not a single scholar who followed him when he was young!

In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, he shifted from conquering the country to defending the country. Knowledge began to be more important than force. He was somewhat lacking in confidence in the great Confucian scholars and scholars who came to support him.

But as he grew older and gained more knowledge, he gradually figured it out. He valued scholars so that they could better manage the country for him, rather than letting them point fingers at him and look down on those who had shed blood with him.

"Which scholar feels insulted?" Emperor Xingyuan glanced at the ministers with burning eyes.

The people in front were all high-ranking officials. They glanced at the people around them and made no move.

On the other hand, several people from the middle and back positions of the team came out one after another to second what Liu gave Shizhong.

After hearing this, Emperor Xingyuan said expressionlessly: "Since you think it is insulting to serve as an official in the same court as Xin Daizhao, then you should go home."

As soon as these words came out, all the officials were shocked.

Four of the people who stood up immediately collapsed on the ground, looking like they couldn't believe it.

"These adults are all the pillars of the country who have passed the imperial examination and entered official positions. How could your Majesty do this?" Liu Gei was heartbroken over the incident.

The other two people who stood up were also filled with indignation: "Your Majesty is like this, Daxia is in danger——"

"Shut up!" Emperor Xingyuan slapped the armrest of the dragon chair hard. "You feel insulted. I allow you to go home. Isn't it okay for you? You actually said such evil words in front of the court. You are speaking for the sake of the public and the country, but you are clearly reluctant to give up. Fame! Come on, drag Liu Gaishi, Zhong Zhong and three others outside the Meridian Gate with fifty imperial staffs!"

Soon Jinlin Guards came over and dragged the three of them down.

Emperor Xingyuan slowly glanced at the ministers with his raised eyes, and said calmly: "You will also go and watch the execution."

The court, which was bustling just now, suddenly became quiet. They didn't dare to resist the decree. The officials were silent and rushed outside the Meridian Gate like a slow tide to see Liu Gei and three people being beaten with sticks.

Under normal circumstances, Jinlin Guard commander Feng Nian and eunuch Sun Yan were the ones who executed the punishments with the imperial staff. Today, Emperor Xingyuan personally executed the punishments.

Outside the Meridian Gate, the three people involved in the incident had their pants taken off, exposing their white buttocks.

The captain who was executing the execution raised his long stick high and struck it down mercilessly.

The iron-wrapped end of the chestnut stick hit the flesh hard, making a heart-wrenching sound.

One, two, three...

The sounds of blows and screams were intertwined, and Emperor Xingyuan watched coldly, without any change in his expression.

All the officials watching the execution were as silent as cicadas.
