Emperor Yongzheng

Chapter 118: On the quarrel between the cliques in the Mingtang, and the fortunate minister Yunhu caused trouble in the Longting Court
Yongzheng talked about the topics agreed upon with the Military Aircraft Department, and he spoke very calmly and calmly. He first talked about the 61 years of hard work that the Holy Patriarch "called Shoucheng, but actually started a business."The vastness of the territory, the large number of people, the clarity of politics, and the prosperity of life have been unparalleled by the monarchs of the past dynasties since its creation.Then it is said that when the Holy Ancestor was tired of hard work in his later years, all kinds of bad deeds gradually began to occur among the officials in the world, such as "forming cliques and harboring evil intentions, asking for favors that were not made before marriage, cheating and deceitful, serving the public and serving others privately, pretending to be public for personal gain, and cheating on others". Injustice all comes from the root cause of "ineffective governance".Only by "cleansing away the accumulated habits of the Tang, Song, Yuan and Ming dynasties can the world enjoy eternal peace."He spent nearly a meal introducing in detail Li Weitian Wenjing's "returning fire consumption to the public", "officials and gentry paying grain as one body", "sharing taxes on land and paying taxes to the fields", and also talked about Ortai's appointment as Guangxi The governor did not shy away from resentment and was very effective in promoting the reform of the land. He was praised for his "public loyalty" and could be regarded as one of the "three great models" together with Li Wei and Tian Wenjing.The so-called Yongzheng's new policy of reforming the Yuan Dynasty and returning the native land to local people were also included in the main national policies.

The seat of the fourteenth elder brother Yun is arranged between Prince Yi Yunxiang and Prince Zhuang Yunlu.Seeing the fourth brother of the same mother sitting high on the throne and speaking calmly and calmly, he felt really full of emotions.When competing for the throne, Yong Zheng was the petty and mean brother who had the least hope.How did God arrange it for such a person to rise to the top and become a loner?Thinking of Yindi who was snatched away from him by Yongzheng, he felt a stabbing pain in his heart, and glanced at Yongzheng with eyes flashing with flames; he also thought of the third brother next to him who had been persuading him with sincerity for many days, and he said words with mixed words. Yunsu and others must abandon the cauldron and restore the old system of eight kings discussing politics. They must wait quietly for orders. It is better to be a fisherman than a snipe and a clam.Yun breathed a sigh of relief quietly and waited for Prince Lian to attack.He expected that Yongzheng would definitely talk about the "rectification of flag affairs" and Prince Lian would seize this issue to make a showdown... While thinking about it, he took a peek at Yunhu who was sitting in the south.However, Yunhu showed no expression, standing upright without leaning back, holding the handle of the chair tightly with both hands, and one could hear the tension and uneasiness in his heart.While he was thinking wildly, Yongzheng suddenly changed his tone and said:
"As mentioned above, the new political campaign is difficult and difficult, and the monarch and his ministers must be united in civil and military affairs to achieve results. Here, I also want to talk about 'cronies'. Friends are also one of the five moral ethics, and it is human nature to communicate with each other. But People and ministers who are destined to interact with each other well can only deal with daily private matters. As for the official affairs of the court, they must pay attention to 'justice and uprightness' and cannot mix the personal interests of party support." He glanced at the person sitting under the screen. The brothers and the kings of the foreign vassals continued calmly, "Since I came to the throne, I have been attending the affairs of state at Qianqingmen and Yangxin Hall. I have immediately told all the kings, civil and military ministers, to take 'cronies' as a warning. Emperor Sheng Zuren also repeatedly instructs his court officials. . This is an old topic. It is brought up again today because the trend of cliques has not been eliminated! As the emperor, I employ people to show favor. In fact, there are also inappropriate things. I can only follow the righteousness of heaven today and always be cautious and vigilant. And my ministers and ministers You must also examine yourself in three ways. Criticize and punish those who are not part of his party, and protect those who are part of his party - then the honor and disgrace of ministers, workers and officials have nothing to do with rewards and punishments, but are only related to whether they are part of their party or not. Okay. So, where is the king and father? Where is the law of the country? This is a serious matter. You must ask yourselves. You must not act in a positive and negative way, so that you can deceive the king and ignore the rules and laws. Don't think that I am kind and lenient, and don't think that my sins will not be punished by others. 'Just unscrupulous. As for the national law, although I want to be lenient, there is still heavenly justice above!"

Having said this, Yong Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and picked up the cup. The whole hall was silent except for the slight sound of his sipping.After a long time, Yongzheng put down his cup. He saw Ertai and Zhang Tingyu exchanging glances under the screen, and said: "Not only the official administration, but also the flag affairs must be greatly rectified. This is a matter that is known to the world by repeated imperial edicts. All the kings in heaven I'm here for the meeting today. After the meeting, I have to arrange the details. Because the major policies mentioned today are all about the Qing Dynasty's destiny and national lineage. I usually hear a lot of discussions here. I asked you to come here today, not to listen. That's all. If you have any good suggestions, you might as well tell them directly to the court. The speaker is not guilty. I humbly accept the advice and choose what is good. If I don't say it to the court, talk about it behind my back, and harm the country and the emperor, I can only Punish him for the crime of deceiving the emperor!" The corner of his mouth was slightly raised, he pressed the nipple cup, and stared at the audience with eyes as bright as paint. It was unclear whether he was angry or happy.After a long time, he asked again.

No one speaks.

Yongzheng stood up and was about to give orders to disperse the court when suddenly someone from the punishment department shouted loudly:
"I have something to tell you!"

There are actually people who dare to join forces on such an occasion!
The civil and military officials, whose knees ached from kneeling and whose ears were buzzing, all trembled. The minor officials in the corner couldn't help but straighten their necks and look towards the left front of the throne.Suddenly, the atmosphere in the palace became tense.Yongzheng looked at Xia Mingtao, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice who was kneeling in front of him, and asked: "Who wants to make trouble?" "It's -" Xia Mingtao's face was ashen, he kowtowed repeatedly, and said in silence: "It's Chen Xuehai, a member of the Ministry of Justice and a foreign minister. .”

"Chen Xuehai." Yong Zheng said kindly, "Kneel down in front and play!"

In front of everyone, a fat middle-aged man in his 30s, wearing a white glass top, walked sideways and kneeled past the previous ministers to the throne, kowtowed and said: "Chen Xuehai, a member of the Ministry of Punishment!"

"What do you want to play?"

"Tian Wenjing is a treacherous villain, and I just commended him as a model governor." Chen Xuehai kowtowed repeatedly, "The emperor trusts such a villain who harms the country and harms the people. How can we expect that Yongzheng's new campaign will be successful if it is a difficult task?"

Yunhu was already discouraged when he saw the formation that Yongzheng had set up today, but he didn't expect that the Huguang Chief Envoy Le Feng he had arranged did not attack, but Chen Xuehai jumped out first.He was so excited that his breathing became a little rapid. He suppressed his excitement and looked for Le Font with his eyes.

"This is about Tian Wenjing's personal ethics." Yong Zheng looked at the already somewhat commotion venue uneasily and said, "As for the several national policies I mentioned, what do you have in mind?" As soon as he finished speaking, someone shouted loudly below : "Slave Le Feng has something to report!" Yong Zheng looked up and said, "Kneel down too!"

"twitter!"

Among the stunned people, Lefon knelt down and kowtowed.Chen Xuehai kowtowed repeatedly and said: "How can justice be achieved if personal ethics are not good? May the emperor be wise and wise to investigate! Tian Wenjing was reclaiming wasteland in Henan, and the hungry people were scattered everywhere. He implemented the idea of ​​'officials and gentry working together', and has already applied for academic and political applications in Henan. When scholars are about to stop taking exams, there is a slogan in the officialdom of Henan: "The fields are suppressed, like tigers and wolves, forcibly collecting taxes and reclaiming wasteland. Small households are everywhere, and big households are panic-stricken." How can such cruel officials who should be surrendered to jackals and tigers serve the world? Set an example?" Le Feng took a step on his knees and kowtowed: "Every sentence of Chen Xuehai's memorial is true. Huguang and Henan are adjacent to each other. There was a memorial before. Hungry people from other provinces flowed into Huguang. The purpose of the memorial was to set up porridge restaurants in the three towns of Hanyang. The slave personally After checking and asking, nine out of ten hungry people were from Henan. Tian Wenjing reported a good harvest last year, and it was backed by the auspiciousness of the harvest. If he did this, he would not be able to escape the crime of deceiving the emperor!"

Tian Wenjing made a big fuss in Shanxi Province in the first year of Yongzheng's reign (see Zhuo's "Emperor Yongzheng? Carved Bow Heavenly Wolf"). He was appreciated by Yongzheng and was suddenly moved to the position of governor and governor with a sixth-rank imperial palace. Few courtiers and officials from other provinces were convinced. of.At this moment, someone fired the first shot, and the venue immediately became abuzz with whispers, and there were a few people who were eager to try.Zhang Tingyu has been prime minister for decades and has never encountered such a scene.He looked at the calm Yunhu next to him, knowing that the restless prince was making up his mind. Seeing that Yongzheng didn't seem to be paying attention, he couldn't help but panic, so he stood up without saying a word, only looking at him with a cold and stern look. Sweep every corner of the venue.He was an old minister of the Xi Dynasty, with high prestige and many disciples and former officials, all of whom were high-ranking officials. Under the intimidation of his gaze, the atmosphere in the venue became much quieter.

Yunxu and Yunxu glanced at each other quickly, and both knew that they had encountered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Looking at Tian Wenjing's incident, Yongzheng's new policy had already hurt many high-ranking officials and dignitaries. Today, a large number of people came to the meeting and proposed the "Eight Eight" on the spot. "The king discusses politics", public anger is difficult to offend, and he is not afraid of Yongzheng's disobedience.The chain reaction that follows is simply exciting!Yunsu gritted his teeth, his heart pounded, and he stared directly at Yongzheng with hatred. He clenched the armrests of the chair with both hands and coughed lightly.Prince Dong Yongxin, who had been itching to wait for a long time, stood up in response and said loudly: "I have a plan to report!"

"Is it you?" Yongzheng glanced over with a knife-like gaze, "Go forward, kneel down, and tell me one by one!"

Yongxin seemed timid for a moment, but the words had been spoken and there was no room for turning back. He took a few steps to kneel in front of the throne. Seeing such momentum, Prince Guo and Prince Jian also stood up and said loudly: "My lord, Wang Youben wants to play!" Zhang Tingyu saw that the already quiet venue was in commotion again, and became really anxious. He slapped the back of his chair and stood up, saying to Yong Zheng: "Your Majesty, you can't have too many interviews at one time, or you won't be able to speak clearly."

"Yeah." Only then did Yong Zheng truly realize that the danger was approaching him.There was a "buzz" in his head, and blood immediately rushed to his face. He smiled at Zhang Tingyu and said, "That's what Heng Chen said." He suppressed his emotions with the greatest perseverance, but his heart was already beating in panic, and his two One calf also trembled slightly due to spasm.Seeing this, Fang Bao left his seat without saying a word and whispered a few words to where Yunxiang was sitting.Yunxiang looked at Yun beside him uneasily, said "it's convenient" and stood up to leave his seat.After leaving the palace gate, he saw Tu Lichen running all the way from the study room. He didn't even have time to salute and asked: "Thirteenth Master, I heard that there is a commotion inside?"

"Hurry up and mobilize a Yulin army for me!"

"twitter!"

"slow!"

Yunxiang's eyes flashed with a vicious light, and he said word for word: "Follow my orders, take whoever I tell you to take, don't whisper!"

"Yes!"

"twitter!"

When Yunxiang returned, there was already a chaotic sound in the palace.Yunhu had already taken action in person, pointed his halberd finger at Zhang Tingyu, and shouted loudly: "Zhang Tingyu, are you threatening to threaten power and disrupt the government? The emperor said that the person who spoke today is not guilty. Why did you point at the fourteenth master and say that he is in poor health? Please invite the fourteenth master and the third master. Master, are you going back to the mansion? You have forgotten your identity! At best, you are just a dog to us Manchurians, and you have such a face after being with a master!" Yong Zheng on the throne immediately suppressed Yunhu, "Prince Lian, you have committed a crime Madness. Zhang Tingyu is a veteran of the late emperor, the Great Wall of Sheji! According to what you mean, is there any difference between Manchu and Han?" Yongxin shouted in the audience: "Long live! How can Manchu and Han be the same? Our ancestors and ancestors. Are there any Han people among the Eight Banners discussing politics?" Chengnuo immediately responded: "Yes, King Dong is right! What's wrong with the Eight Banners discussing politics? Please ask the emperor to teach you!" Lebuteau stroked his beard and said repeatedly: "That's what I'm talking about. It makes sense, it makes sense!”

At this time, most of the people in the palace had turned into wood carvings and clay sculptures, kneeling stiffly on the ground with their necks straightened, listening to the arguments between the princes and the emperor.Yongzheng's face was as white as snow. He stood up with a bang and said sternly: "You are talking to me like this, do you still have the status of a monarch and a minister?" In the silence for a moment, a young man from the etiquette class suddenly stood up. He came, walked directly to the screen, and said to Yunlu, who was already stunned: "Just now, Lord Long Live issued an edict, clearly instructing the flag owners and princes to make other arrangements for the flag affairs and not to discuss them at this court meeting. Please give the order to Lord Sixteen The kings obey the decree." Yunlu was stunned and before he could speak, Yunhu suddenly asked:

"who are you?"

"The Ministry of Internal Affairs wrote Yu Hongtu's style."

"Sixth-grade official?"

"Seventh grade."

Yunhu laughed suddenly and said: "The world is really upside down. Even a seventh-grade Qianqian as big as a sesame is jumping around in this palace!"

"I am an official who has been ordered to follow the Sixteenth Master to rectify the flag affairs." Yu Hongtu's voice was clear and bright, and his rat beard was raised proudly, "Besides, at today's court meeting, the master did not say that people below a certain rank are not allowed to speak. Some of you are acting against the order, what's wrong with me asking Prince Zhuang to speak out?" Yongzheng never expected that Cheng Yaojin would suddenly appear from among the humble ministers and stand on his side to speak, staring at him with extremely appreciative eyes. Looking at this unattractive little official, he said: "Yu Hongtu, I will transfer you to the Imperial Court and the title of censor of the Jin Dynasty! You are no longer a 'little official', so speak boldly!" Yunlu also came to his senses at this time and said: "If Hongtu has any suggestions, just tell me." Yu Hongtu said: "It is better to act according to Long Live Lord's order and separate flag affairs from government affairs. Please sit down and watch the ceremony, and don't be impatient if you have anything to say. Over there, who should the emperor listen to? It is up to the emperor to arrange the various reports. With such a fuss, the topics in the hall are different and everyone talks about his own thing. Isn’t it confusing the situation? "

Yunlu suddenly figured it out, so he stood up, bowed to several princes, and said, "Please follow the court rules and sit down and listen to the meeting with peace of mind." Yongxin giggled and said, "I just talked about the Eight Banners' discussion of politics. This matter is obviously not beyond negotiation. We are also speaking according to the ancestral family law and we are not out of line. Why do you, Prince Zhuang, stop us?"

"Rectifying flag affairs is just one of Yongzheng's new policies." Yunlu said, "It's not that we don't discuss it. The emperor has already made arrangements, and we should follow the order." "If we follow the order, the emperor just said, 'Those who speak are not guilty'. "Yunsu said neither yin nor yang, "Since there is a plaque saying 'uprightness' in this hall, why bother to find another time?"

"The Emperor did not say that you are guilty." Yu Hongtu's sharp and harsh voice resounded through the hall, "Whether you are honest or not, everyone in the world and you will know."

Yunhu's eyes were filled with anger, and he slapped the table and shouted loudly: "You are arrogant! The third-class slaves in my house are older than you, so you just stand upright and quarrel with the princes?"

"This is Long Live Lord's Dragon Court, not the Eighth Lord's house! I am Long Live Lord's official, and I am not the Eighth Lord's slave!" Yu Hongtu refused to give in and said loudly, "The Eight Banners' political discussion has been abolished for more than sixty years. Grandfather was deposed, could it be that Saint Grandfather was also wrong? Eighth Master, you keep saying "Eight Banners discuss politics", who are the flag owners of the upper three banners? How do you punish the flag owners of the lower five flags? Which banner do you control? Who are the assistants, counselors, Niulu and Baoyi under the banner, and where are they doing their errands? I am afraid that no one except me in the Ministry of Internal Affairs can tell clearly! Mr. Eighth, although I am rude in front of you, I have no intention of causing trouble. . As for the word 'property', you and other princes were the first to be rude in front of the master, and you did not yell at the court officials in front of the Long Live Lord." Yunxiang was really grateful to this Yu Hongtu.He became hasty. What he was most afraid of was that the situation here was already in chaos before Tulichen arrived. Even though it could be calmed down, in this solemn and most important place, it was not honorable to arrest or even kill people in a dignified meeting. After all, it is still difficult to deal with the aftermath.Yu Hongtu fought hard and bought time.Seeing that Tu Lichen, wearing sword and military uniform, had arrived at the entrance of the palace, Yunxiang felt relieved. He stood up and walked straight to the throne. He whispered a few words to Yongzheng and then stepped back respectfully.

"I didn't expect that there would be trouble in the middle." Yongzheng's face was so pale that no one dared to look at him, and he smiled reluctantly, "Please leave the court outside Tianjie to wait for the order. Since someone wants to discuss the 'Eight Kings' Discussion of Government', I will first Let’s discuss this matter and call you in after it’s decided.” He waved his hand and said, “Kneel down for now!”

Zhang Tingyu saw that the courtiers were looking at each other, and when he was about to speak, Ertai said loudly: "What? Why don't you leave without thanking me?"

"Thank you... um!"

The civil and military officials said something mixed, and then retreated in a jumbled manner under the command of the Ministry of Rites.When they arrived under the Danqi of Qianqing Palace, they were surprised to find that more than a thousand sergeants of the Yulin Army, He Ge, were armed with guns and concentrated in front of the East and West Side Halls with murderous intent.Thinking of the fierce imperial struggle just now, everyone felt as if they were in another world.

Only Emperor Yongzheng and Fang Bao, Zhang Tingyu, Yunxiang, Ertai, Yunlu, and Hongshi were left in the hall, as well as Yunhu, Yunsu, Yun, Duluo, Yongxin, Chengnuo, and Lebutu. .Looking at the civil and military courtiers who were filing out cautiously, both sides were silent.Enemies have to put on a smile when they see each other every day; today they have torn their faces, one wants to destroy this imperial eclipse and finish his work in one battle, and the other wants to defeat the enemy and fight desperately, both of them are gathering their strength in the terrible silence.Yongzheng saw Yu Hongtu looking around in confusion, as if he didn't know what to do, so he smiled and said: "Yu Hongtu, please stay for a while. You haven't finished what you said."

"I haven't finished what I said!" Yun said loudly, "I don't care about 'fire consumption' or 'being an errand', and I don't want to be a bird-discussing king. I'm just holding my breath. What king's law did I commit to imprison me?" In Dongling, dead or alive, human or ghost, unable to even protect the people around me? I won the battle in Xihai! Am I not a fellow brother of Long Live? Originally, I listened to my sixteenth brother Advice, I don’t want to speak at the court meeting. So many officials are dissatisfied with your new policy, and they also want you to obey the public opinion!" "Public opinion?" Fang Bao immediately retorted, "The Fourteenth Master used to be in charge of the Ministry of War, and sent out troops. After returning, I am studying in Dongling again. You are a wealthy and wealthy person who lives in simplicity. Do you know how much land there is in a county, how much is occupied by big owners, and how much is occupied by small owners? Do you know where a hundred thousand snowflakes and silver for a prefect come from? The former Ming Dynasty was destroyed. Wasn't Li Zicheng's revolution due to the excessive annexation of land and the excessive greed of officials?" Ertai had just entered the military headquarters and was not familiar with the overall situation, but he knew Yun's situation. He knelt on the ground and raised his face, neither humble nor arrogant. Then Fang Bao said loudly: "The late emperor passed away, the Fourteenth Master made a big fuss in the mourning hall, the Queen Mother was seriously ill, and the Fourteenth Master was careless in his words when he was sick. Is it not guilty? If it were an ordinary person, such a crime would be sent to the Ministry of Punishment for serious discussion. Long live Just because of brotherly love, I only cut off the king's title and asked the Fourteenth Master to guard the mausoleum and study. Why can't the Fourteenth Master be considerate of this love and care? Cai Huaixi and Wang Jingqi colluded with the people around the Fourteenth Master in an attempt to kidnap the Fourteenth Master They have committed a great treason, and the Long Live Master has not asked anyone except the culprit. Sending them away from the Fourteenth Master is an act of kindness outside the law. The Fourteenth Master, think about it with your heart, how can the master not be the most benevolent and righteous person?"

Yun Si saw Yun blushing at the question and hesitated to speak. Although he hated Yun for coming to Beijing and refusing to cooperate with him, he had to help him here and now.He changed from his usual gentle and elegant Confucian demeanor, sat cross-legged and shouted loudly: "The Fourteenth Master is talking to Long Live, why are you interrupting?"

"The speaker is not guilty today, Yunsu, why are you so impetuous?" The courtiers all exited, and Yongzheng breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, these people were jumping around and acting wildly. He felt that it was easy to deal with them, and he had already calmed down.His tone was low, but his tone was arrogant: "Don't you just point to Qiao Yindi's matter and say that I am a 'slutty and violent'? You can meet her later and ask me if I have done anything indecent." !—It’s better to get straight to the point. By making such a fuss regardless of one’s wealth and life, are you trying to make up the mystery of the ‘Eight Kings’ Discussion of Government’?”

Yun bit his lower lip, looked at Yongzheng fiercely, and said for a long time: "Even if it is! It is the old system of our ancestors, and if we raised it openly at the court meeting, it is not an act of rebellion! Your Majesty, you are not There is also a decree that it is not allowed to mention the 'Eight Kings' Discussion of Government'?"

"When did I say this?"

"Ask Yunlu!"

Yong Zheng stared at Yun Lu with suspicious and blazing eyes: "Old Sixteen, you - people say you are honest, but you actually dare to correct the imperial edict!"

"How dare I, my brother?" Yunlu was sitting upright, but he knelt down and stared at Hongshi. Qiqi Aiai said: "Sanbeile... what Sanbeile said is the emperor's intention..." Yongzheng trembled all over, He turned around and stared at Hongshi without saying a word. Hongshi was so frightened that he knelt down with a thump and said in a trembling voice: "My son is the most timid. How dare he falsely fabricate his holy will and harm the country and cause chaos in the government!" It was Uncle Sixteen who misheard. What my son meant was that the eight kings discussed politics, and the emperor had other arrangements. What discussed politics was flag affairs, which is the same as what the emperor taught today!"

"Ok?"

Yun Lu stared at the pale-faced Hong Shi, feeling frightened and angry, his lips trembling and he didn't know what to say for a moment, but he soon came to his senses. This man who was telling lies was Yong Zheng's beloved son after all. It is unknown whether the defense will be even worse.After a long while, he swallowed helplessly and kowtowed: "My brother is so confused right now that I really can't remember clearly. My brother is the famous 'Sixteen Deaf'. Maybe I misheard..."

"You made a mistake!" Yong Zheng was furious and took a step forward.Zhang Tingyu was afraid that he would step forward to kick Yunlu, and when he was about to stop him, Yongzheng stopped and sneered: "I was stupid and used a deaf person like you to do things! Cut off your royal title, go back and think about your mistakes behind closed doors. Get out!"

Yunlu's eyes were full of tears. He looked at Yongzheng timidly, kowtowed and said with a cry: "Yes..." He got up and staggered out.Just at this time, Tu Lichen came in from outside, met Yunlu face to face, knelt down in front of Yongzheng's throne, and said: "The people from the Ministry of Rites have just come in and asked the servants to play for them. All the officials are already doing their duty in front of the Qianqing Gate. Kneel down and wait, asking for your master’s wishes.”

"Tell them to wait!" Yong Zheng looked at Tu Lichen's military uniform with satisfaction, "There will be orders later. Tell them that the ministers of various ministries and those who have private discussions on national affairs should not blame me for killing!"

"twitter!"

Yong Zheng's eyes flashed with a sinister light, and he turned around and smiled at Yunhu and others: "I said when I first came to the throne that I have no intention of becoming this emperor. I just mentioned it as a last resort because of the entrustment of the Holy Ancestor. The Holy Ancestor The virtue is close to the three kings, and the merits of the five emperors are greater than that of the five emperors. Even the removal of the eight kings from the political affairs is also a matter in the hands of his old man. Today you suddenly launched an attack in the public, saying that you want to restore the eight kings from the political affairs. I want to know your sincerity, Holy Ancestor Did I make a mistake in handling this, or am I immoral in some way? If any of you want to be the emperor, you might as well stand up and speak out!"

Ever since the courtiers obeyed the order and withdrew, Yunhu felt a sudden sense of loss.Usually in the private residence, several people discuss secretly, and Yongzheng seems to be extremely incompetent.In an instant, I felt the authority of the central government. How easy it was to take advantage of myself!From the open door of the main hall, it can be clearly seen that the Yulin Army, which has gathered black crows and crows, stands on the north side of the Yuehua Gate like an iron wall, ready for action.Yunhu knew that the situation was over, and he let out a sad sigh in his heart.He suppressed his shock and anger, kowtowed and said: "How can the ministers be worthy of the words of Long Live? The ministers have no intention of leaving the imperial court, let alone rebellion! The eight kings' political consultation is an ancestral system, that is, Yongxin, Chengnuo and others just want to serve the country and assist the emperor in governing the world. I guarantee that they have no other thoughts!"

"Prince Rui, please stand up and speak." Yong Zheng ignored his words and said with a smile, "I'm glad you didn't get involved with them."

Yun Chu blinked his eyes. He was not expecting the situation to take such a turn for the worse. He felt that Yun Chu was too weak, and he would be like a fish with swords.After thinking about it, he said loudly: "Long live this, my brother has something to say! Prince Rui came to the capital, and like other kings from the east, we discussed the outline of the flag affairs, discussed together the suggestions for the eight kings to discuss politics, and No one is setting up another stove behind his back. I wonder who they are referring to? What does 'mixing' mean?" Yunhu immediately realized that "submitting" means "submitting" and responded: " Don't say that we don't have any private conspiracy. If the emperor has not failed in his administration, why would he block the way of speech? If he has failed in his administration, why should he refuse to remonstrate and justify his mistakes?" Yongzheng sneered and said: "Oh! I've 'blocked' your speech. Words? If you have anything to say, if I have any missteps in my governance, you might as well say it clearly!"

One sentence made both of them bored.Yun said loudly from the side: "Tian Wenjing is obviously a villain. He exploits the cruel officials who have gathered together. The officials and people of Henan are eager to eat their flesh and sleep on their skin. Your Majesty, you set yourself up as a 'model' and do not question your appointment. Isn't this a failure of governance?"

"You live in Dongling and he is a villain. How do you know?"

"What the ministers just said makes sense to me!"

"What's your truth?" Yong Zheng's face was ashen and expressionless, "Your truth is that of big owners and tycoons!"

"Does the emperor want to kill the rich and give to the poor?"

Yong Zheng suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed: "That's good! But I don't want to kill anyone to save anyone, I want to eradicate the chaotic roots of the revolution and create a clean and bright era!" He suddenly stopped smiling, his face turned red, and he even breathed excitedly. His breathing was uneven, and his green satin-liangli soap boots paced back and forth on the brick floor. He seemed to be talking to others, but also seemed to be saying to himself: "I am such an emperor, and I am such a man! Father, the emperor has If you entrust these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains to me, I will manage them to an impregnable state! I will not be merciful to anyone who blocks my ambition!" He suddenly shouted outside the palace: "Tuli Chen!"

"Slave is here!" Tu Lichen stood under the eaves outside the palace, stepped in with a "bang" sound, and asked, "What is the master's purpose?"

"Your Eighth, Ninth, and Fourteenth Masters are tired today." Yongzheng said with a raised face, "Your infantry commander will lead the Yamen to escort us back to the palace!"

"The slave obeys the order!"

Tu Lichen got up, waved his hand outward, and immediately four thousand generals came in, paid military salutes to Yong Zheng, and stood still.Tulishen's spurs jingled on the gold brick floor, and he walked straight towards Yunhu, calling Qianer and saying: "Eighth Master, Ninth Master, Fourteenth Master, I have been ordered to send you back."

"It's nothing more than death!" Yunhu stood up in a hurry, "Old nine, old fourteen, don't beg for forgiveness!" He bowed his hands to Yongzheng and said, "Your Majesty's fourth brother, brother, I'm waiting for you to kill me. !" After saying that, he walked out of the palace proudly.Yun Zhen also bowed his head, but Yun Yun was even more special. He stood up and only stared at Yong Zheng with contemptuous eyes, snorted and left.
