People in the Ming Dynasty are lawless

Chapter 189 Lao Zhu dismissed eight top officials in one fell swoop!Chen Han’s prestige is sky-high! !

Chen Han kept his word and chopped all eight beasts to death with a knife.

He was really tired and out of breath, and the smell of blood was so strong that it made him sick.

Even so, he could only hold back.

However, there was also a lot of violent energy released from his heart.

Looking at the corpses and heads all over the ground.

Chen Han didn't feel the slightest discomfort, but walked forward with a knife and shouted to the workers: "I said you can come to me if you encounter any problems, and I will definitely help you solve them!"

At this time, Chen Han fell into extreme excitement.

In order to resist the strong vomiting sensation caused by the smell of blood, Chen Han was trying hard not to faint.

The workers fell silent after seeing Chen Han covered in blood.

Then, led by the victim's father, all the workers fell to their knees on the ground.

"Thank you, Mr. Chen, for giving us justice!!"

Chen Han stood in front of the crowd holding a knife and suddenly burst into tears.

If not for anything else, just because these workers live such a humble life.

Obviously this is a basic human right, but in the eyes of many people, these workers have become targets who can be bullied at will.

Just because these workers were on their side, they became targets of attack.

Xia Yuanji can best understand Chen Han's current mood.

Especially when he saw the corpses on the ground, his feeling was even stronger.

He even shed tears too.

Zhu Yuanzhang stood watching this scene from a distance. Originally, he was the one who should speak here.

But he was willing to give up this stage to Chen Han.

And he is very satisfied now.

Chen Han did not disappoint him.

no sooner said than done!

If you say you can pick up a knife and kill someone, you will definitely do it.

Just to let those who are still waiting to see what will happen if they really piss off Chen Han.

So what if he is a first-class official in the current dynasty?
Still, chop your son to death in front of everyone.

You can have all the power in the court, but you can't even protect your own son.

Zhan Hui and the others should feel this pain deeply now.

That's true.

Because now Zhan Hui and his eight senior officials no longer have the dignity they had before, but they are lying next to their son's body and crying bitterly.

At first they said that the children of the common people would die if they died, how could they be compared to their sons, but now they finally felt the pain.

The pain of losing a child can be felt even by high-ranking officials.

"My son!"

"My son..."

"Son!"

"Ah..."

These fathers collapsed on the ground and cried bitterly while holding the body of their son with dismembered body parts.

After Chen Han accepted the workers' kneeling, he shouted: "Everyone, please stand up!"

After the workers got up, Chen Han walked forward and came to the victim.

"Old man, I know that no matter how much I say, I can't bring your children back to life, nor can I bring your wife back to life..."

The old worker wiped his tears and shook his head: "Mr. Chen, now that you have avenged them, they can rest in peace!"

Chen Han sighed and said to the workers: "Both girls are strong-willed women who would rather die than be humiliated. I, Chen Han, admire them very much. I decided to build a Martyred Women Shrine here to commemorate them."

After saying that, he turned back to look at Lao Zhu and bowed deeply, "I wonder if your majesty allows it?"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded: "Okay!"

Chen Han thanked the emperor, turned back to the workers, and bowed to them: "Everyone, I called you here, but I didn't protect you. This is because I didn't do a good job. What happened today , it’s all the responsibility of me, Chen Han.

Here I promise you that we will do three things in the future: first, double the wages of all our workers in this six months; second, build a Martyrs Shrine to commemorate the spirit of the two girls; third, dispatch 1000 people. The military strengthens its protection for you! "

Originally this kind of compensation was due, but in the eyes of the workers, Chen Han was a living Bodhisattva.

It is estimated that they have long been accustomed to the contempt of officials.

I have long been accustomed to these senior officials being superior.

As civilians, I and others have someone to uphold justice on their behalf;
Someone was in front of everyone;

In front of the emperor, cut off the head of the dandy.

It’s already very good, what more do you want?

But Chen Han not only killed these dudes.

Killed in front of so many people.

Killed in front of the emperor.

Kill these dandy boys in front of their fathers.

This is enough to give these functions a face.

But Chen Han has to do more than just that.

They also need to build temples for them, double their wages, and send troops to protect them.

In these items, these workers feel unprecedented respect.

I also felt moved as never before.

More than 2000 workers fell to their knees and cried heartbreakingly.

Now people cannot understand why they do this.

Only the ancients would know how uncontrollable the feeling of being respected after being despised for so long is.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao watched from a distance.

Although he knew that he wanted to win people's hearts, he was still shocked by Chen Heng's methods.

Zhu Yuanzhang even said to Zhu Biao, "Although this kid is usually tepid, the real key is that he can really pick up a knife and kill people. He is a ruthless kid.

Yes, yes, those who do big things must have such ruthlessness. "

Zhu Biao was even very satisfied with his son-in-law.

If Chen Han delays this matter even a little bit, it's easy to guess what will happen.

Why would the workers be willing to continue working with Chen Han?No one dares.

Because you may not even know when your life will be lost.

Who is willing to work hard with the leader who wants to protect himself?

But now the situation is exactly the opposite. Even if these two thousand workers are not paid, they will follow Chen Han.

And the people who came out to watch finally saw Chen Han's handling.

See how fierce the struggle between Chen Han as a reformist and these conservatives was.

I also saw how many officials were teased after Chen Han's counterattack when Shen Liqian was killed.

They even clapped their hands and applauded, thinking that they could scare Chen Han in this way.

But what they didn't expect was that Chen Han and the others persisted.

Hold on, even with today's bloodshed.

In fact, it is also a continuation of the open and covert struggle between reformists and conservatives.

The bloodshed has continued, this is the cruelty of reform.

Then Zhu Yuanzhang got off the donkey and announced directly.All eight senior officials headed by Zhang Hui were dismissed.Their property was confiscated, and all family members were sent to the frontiers to serve as soldiers.

Relatively speaking, this punishment is still light.

But this is as it should be.

Although these people are guilty, they are guilty of failing to teach their children well.

Although decapitation is everyone's wish, it cannot go beyond the scope of legal punishment.

Many people think that when Lao Zhu became emperor, he would kill people whenever he wanted.

This view underestimates the importance of power and legal fairness in ancient courts.

Although Lao Zhu kills people, every time he kills someone, he first finds fault with the officials, or at least finds an excuse to kill.

Take Hu Weiyong for example. The reason why he was killed was because of rebellion. That must be slander, but even slander did not come out of thin air.

First of all, Hu Weiyong was not a good person. When he was prime minister, he covered the sky with one hand, and promoting officials was even more nepotistic.

Therefore, he was resented by all the opponents and labeled as a rebel, and then some incriminating evidence and the confessions of "insiders" were found in his home and confirmed.

When everyone saw Hu Weiyong being killed, they all celebrated and would not sympathize with him.

This is especially true for the Kongyin case and the Guo Huan case.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang killed many people, there was a strong logic behind each case.

It means that you know that it may be an injustice, but you find that it is quite self-consistent logically.

This is the great thing about Lao Zhu.

And this is also the rule of rights that even an emperor like Zhu Yuanzhang must abide by.

Now, these eight people are dismissed and their families are sent to the frontier. This is the biggest punishment for them, and it will not be pardoned.

No matter the officials or the people, everyone was convinced and fell on their knees to praise the emperor's wisdom.

The next officials were really scared and afraid of Chen Han.

Not only does he have the means, but he also has the means, even if he kills someone himself, he is not polite.

So everyone thought that Shen Jin, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, had been captured, so the bet must have been abandoned, and Lao Zhu also wanted to go down the road.

"Since Chen Han and Shen Jin have committed major crimes and been brought to the frontier, I think the agreement between you can be fulfilled."

Zhu Biao, Xia Yuanji, and even the old man Ling Han, the Minister of Rites, wanted Chen Han to cancel the bet.

It is really not necessary and the road can be built calmly.

But to everyone's surprise, Chen Han bowed deeply to Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, and then said: "Your Majesty, since Wei Chen has made such a bet with Shen Jin, there is no need to cancel it.

In fact, Wei Chen seemed to have made the bet with Shen Jin, but behind the scenes it was a bet between the ministers. How could it be voided?

Wei Chen decided to renovate all the main roads in the capital within half a year.

Only such a humble minister can be convinced by all the officials, so the bet can still proceed as usual. "

As he said this, he glanced at the civil and military officials. I couldn't count how many of them wanted him to be dismissed.

But Chen Han wanted to use this kind of stubbornness to shut up these people, stop them from even thinking about confronting him, and make these people tremble all over when they saw him.

This is your true purpose.

If now because Shen Jin was implicated by his son and dismissed from office, he would go down the road and terminate the bet.

So you can imagine what these people will say behind their backs.

These people will definitely say that they are afraid of losing, so they will find ways to kill Shen Jin's son, so as to implicate Shen Jin and cancel the bet.

How could Chen Han let these people succeed? How could he let them spread all kinds of rumors and rumors to undermine the confidence of the reformists?

After Chen Han said this, he saw the civil and military officials, and everyone had different expressions.

Some people think that Chen Han is shameless. He insists on persisting despite the fact that the minister of the Ministry of Industry who was betting against him has been defeated. This is showing off.

But some people are quite impressed.

What I admire is Chen Han's confidence.

Young people are courageous and enterprising, and their confidence has not been wiped out by one or two things.

It's really a mouthful of spit and a nail.

This is what a reformist should look like.

Xia Yuanji admired him even more, and even stepped forward and punched Chen Han in the chest: "Zhinian, you did this beautifully.

You are right, there are many people here who want to see our jokes, but we have to use facts to tell these people that our jokes are not so easy to see. "

When he said this, he also showed the arrogance of a young man like Chen Han.

The two people stood there as if two peaks were poking there, suppressing all the Xiaoxiao under the peaks.

They took the lead, and the reformists in the cabinet who supported the reform all stood behind Chen Han and Xia Yuanji.

When Nanchang Prefecture entered Xian County, the county magistrate said directly, "Well done to Mr. Chen and Mr. Xia.

The reason why we need to reform is to clean up all the corruption.

Just wash away the dirt.

If they want to see our jokes, then let them open their eyes and see how we renovated this road for them in half a year.

We just want them to see how much better people's lives will be after our reforms.

It’s just to make those jealous people who don’t see the achievements of our reforms feel even more bitter.

Let them stay awake in the dark with jealousy. "

These words made many conservatives gnash their teeth with hatred.

After Zhu Biao listened to the speeches of the reformist young people in the cabinet, he clapped his hands and praised: "Very good, very good.

Gu Ye feels that this bet needs to continue. "

After gaining the support of the prince, the reformists became more powerful.

Those officials who were watching the excitement, those jealous and jealous officials, clenched their fists loudly at this time, but they could only swallow their anger.

……

Next, Chen Han acted very quickly.

He first asked people from the Ministry of Industry to immediately build a shrine for martyrs next to the couch room.

At the same time, the enlightened monk of Linggu Zen Temple was asked to recite the Purana Sutra 81 times [-] times to save the souls of the two girls and their mother.

He even asked Xia Yuanji to write a memorial essay in memory of the two girls.

The strength of the two girls also inspires many women.

For a time, the festival of Lienu was in full bloom, and there was an endless stream of people coming and going to pay homage and pray for blessings.

Even at the back, the incense of Lienu was still very strong, and it suddenly became another scenery outside Sanshan Gate.

In the following time, Chen Han, Xia Yuanji and the cabinet reformers started to survey the roads in the capital.

The reason why Chen Han was confident about renovating it was not, as most people thought, that he had to pry off all the stone slabs on the road and then lay the foundation again.

This is the way of pedantic people.

To be honest, although the stone roads in Beijing are a bit uneven, the foundations are quite solid.

What Chen Han has to do is to lay a layer of cement on the stone road. This layer of cement must be combined with mortar to make the road surface flat.

That's why he dared to pat his chest and promise that it would be renovated within half a year. In fact, it was not renovation, just smoothing.

Of course, if he had revealed this plan before, how could those officials make such a bet with him.

How could he ridicule those ignorant officials then?

This is the method of building roads that Chen Han learned in later generations.

Isn’t this what the future generations will be like?

Every year, the old road is filled in and leveled.

Then they were paved layer by layer. When the major repairs were really needed later, they dug it up and discovered that it was actually the old road underneath...
