People live in the Ming Dynasty, evil spirits are soaring into the sky

Chapter 41 Queen Mother Li breaks the defense! If I don't move, I'll do it. If I want to move, I'll start by attacking the people around me. This is called killing a chicken to scare the monkey.

When Empress Dowager Li arrived at the door of the study, Emperor Wanli had no choice but to go forward and ask for a gift.

"My son, please see your mother!"

Empress Dowager Li looked at Emperor Wanli's small body and snorted: "I don't dare, the emperor is really busy now, so busy that he doesn't even have time to pay attention to the summons from his mother.

The queen mother has to come here in person. It seems that you have really grown up now. "

Emperor Wanli got off the donkey along the slope and said, "Thanks to the Queen Mother for her teachings. The Queen Mother has always wanted her son to be a good emperor. Now, isn't the son doing it according to the Queen Mother's request?"

"You..." Queen Mother Li became furious after hearing what Emperor Wanli said, "Go in and talk!"

With that said, he entered the study with the help of the eunuch.

Emperor Wanli smiled and thought: I just want to make you angry to death.

After entering, Emperor Wanli stood beside the chair. Queen Mother Li sat on the chair, took a sip of the tea handed to her by the eunuch, and asked, "What is the emperor busy with now?"

Emperor Wanli replied: "There are still many things that have not been straightened out regarding the reform. We need to straighten out all the obstacles."

Queen Mother Li almost died of anger at Emperor Wanli's words.

He was really stabbing a knife into his lungs.

Empress Dowager Li stood up and asked, "Do you really intend to listen to Chen Han and carry out reforms?"

Emperor Wanli sat back in his chair, looked at the angry Empress Dowager Li, and said extremely seriously: "Mother, Taizu has ordered that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. Now that the imperial court wants to reform, it has nothing to do with the harem. What you do is disrupting the ancestral system!"

Empress Dowager Li was furious, "Don't talk to me about this. Don't you know that the traitor Chen Han just wants to use reforms to gain power?

Wang Anshi's reform in the Song Dynasty has explained everything. The reform is just a nice way of saying that he has taken power. How can you be so confused?

That Chen Han is a traitor!

Your mother once asked you to memorize Zhuge Liang's apprenticeship list. There is a saying in it, "Be close to a virtuous minister and stay away from a villain." This Chen Han is the villain next to you, and you must kick him out. "

Emperor Wanli said coldly, "Chen Han is my minister of the humerus. I don't know who is chewing such tongues next to my mother.

Nowadays, the imperial treasury can only pay salaries to ministers with pepper instead. To this extent, as the Queen Mother, you are still here to obstruct the imperial reform. What is your purpose?
Do you really want to see an empty treasury? "

Queen Mother Li blushed when she was told, "No matter what, for the sake of our ancestors' inheritance and the sake of the Ming Dynasty, you cannot easily carry out reforms.

The path of reform can lead to turmoil in the world at the least, and ruin of the country and the family at the worst.

Take now, for example, how many ministers outside heard about Chen Han's reform and started to attack him.

Even the important ministers in the court raised objections from more than 20 people.

And this Chen Han, relying on the royal guards in his hands, actually encouraged the people to besiege the homes of these loyal ministers.

It even led to a vicious case in which Gao Mengde, the deputy left capital censor, was burned to death.

Why do you keep such a minister?
If Emperor Taizu were in power, such a minister would have followed Lan Yu's footsteps and been skinned. "

When Chen Han heard this, he almost rushed forward and gave her a few ear melon seeds.

The purpose of Lao Tzu's reforms here is to preserve the Ming Dynasty and to speed up the Ming Dynasty.

You old lady, although you are somewhat pretty, what qualifications do you have to point fingers at me?

But after all, he was replying as Emperor Wanli, so he couldn't curse loudly.

You have to tell her the facts and make sense.

"Okay, since the Queen Mother mentioned those seventeen people, you should have heard that these seventeen people impeached Chen Aiqing with fierce words in the court. After leaving the court, they went to Chen Aiqing's residence with generous gifts. bribe.

Chen Aiqing not only did not accept their bribes, but instead made them kneel at the door of the mansion for an hour.

This matter has already spread throughout the capital, haven't you heard about it? "

Empress Dowager Li slapped the table: "When this matter was mentioned, I became very angry. Who is he? He dares to enforce the law against seventeen important officials?
I also heard that when the seventeen people went to see him, they were forced to kneel down by his soldiers with knives on their necks. Insulting a courtier in this way is a crime worthy of death, but he has the nerve to put the blame on others.

Who saw the seventeen important officials trying to bribe him?

Who saw it? It's all his words.

He just bullied you because you were young, so he deliberately joined forces with Cao Zhengchun to fool you.

Sooner or later you will discover his wolfish ambitions.

Now, before he carries out reforms and disrupts the world, we must take him down to stop the loss in time.

If not, our great world will be disrupted by him. How will you meet the ancestors in the world then? "

Emperor Wanli laughed loudly, "It seems that the Queen Mother is really virtuous and virtuous, but if you knew that Gao Mengde owned 110,000 acres of fertile land in his hometown of Gansu.

In a place where people starved to death every year, he was actually able to build a luxurious manor covering an area of ​​more than ten acres.

In order to enjoy the green scenery in the south of the Yangtze River, he even spent a lot of money to buy green plants in Qu, Nanzhili, and transplanted them to his mansion.

This cost huge amounts of money, and official stations were used to transport green plants for him along the way.

You don't even know that his son occupied fertile land in order to satisfy his selfish desires in the local area. There were double digits of good people beaten to death by his son alone.

You may not know that this old man has seven concubines in his hometown.

What kind of people are they?

Clean people!

A model civil servant!

As for the remaining sixteen people, which one is clean?
Which family doesn't have tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land?

Why did they go to bribe Chen Aiqing?
Are they doing it for the world?

They wanted Chen Aiqing to be lenient to them when measuring the land! !
As for why you came, isn’t it simple?

Isn’t it because my grandpa’s family is very prosperous, and how much fertile land has been occupied by your prestige in my hometown? How many people were persecuted?

My two good uncles are both chief governors of the Fifth Army Commandery Mansion.

awesome!

He has never even been to the battlefield, yet he is ranked first among military attaches.

My good grandpa, Uncle Wu Qing, and the Commander-in-Chief of Jinyiwei, who didn’t know it and thought he was so great, turned out to be just nepotism!
Why are they in such a hurry?
What is the purpose of slandering Chen Aiqing in front of you?
After all, isn’t it just money?

After all, don’t you just want to pay taxes? "

Emperor Wanli's tone was very calm, but his taunting value was maxed out.

Queen Mother Li's face turned blue and white.

After revealing her purpose at once, she breathed quickly, hesitated for a long time, and finally said: "Son, you have to know that grandpa is one of our own family after all. If you really want to reform the law, your mother will not be able to stop you, but you must always give grandpa a chance." Face, right?

You don’t want your grandpa’s family to have so much tax collected, right? "

Emperor Wanli laughed loudly: "Mother, you have finally shown your true colors!

There are a lot of high-sounding words before, but in the final analysis, they are foreshadowing these last two sentences.

Let me tell you, if I don't move, I'll do it. If I want to move, I'll start by attacking the people around me. This is called killing the chicken to scare the monkey! ! "
