Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 352

But Zhu Youjian simply asked Ruan Dayue: "Ruan Aiqing, you are Minister of the Ministry of War, please tell me how to deal with this matter."

Ruan Dayue guessed Zhu Youjian's thoughts through Zhu Youjian's expression, and replied: "Rebellious ministers and thieves, everyone can punish them. If you threaten Your Majesty to kill relative soldiers and soldiers, tomorrow you will threaten court officials to kill Your Majesty!"

"well said!"

Zhu Youjian shot into the sky, Gu Lin and other members of the Duan Literature Club stopped shouting, they all looked at Zhu Youjian and didn't know what to say.

"As students, you don't join the army to defend the country, don't go to study, and as sons of men, you don't do your filial piety at home. What do you want to gather here now!"

Zhu Youjian asked again in a cold voice.

"Your Majesty, student Gu Lin, I brought all the students here today for one purpose only, that is to ask Your Majesty and the Chief Assistant to dismiss the treacherous official Ruan Dayue, so that the world can be brightened!"

Gu Lin has become more and more courageous since he went to Dongchang Prison, and he doesn't think that Emperor Zhu Youjian of Ming Dynasty will let the army execute them, the pillars of the country, let alone Chen Butang.

Therefore, this Gu Lin also stood up first and directly expressed his views, holding his head high and chest out, as if he was not afraid of Zhu Youjian's methods.

Seeing this, Zhu Youjian persuaded again: "This place is not a place for you to stay for a long time. Whether Ruan Dayue is wise or not, I have an opinion with the cabinet. Now I have ordered you all to go back. Deal with you and so on!"

Some members of the Duan Literature Club hesitated: "Why don't we withdraw, after all, it is His Majesty's will, and we have to obey it."

"No, we can't compromise. If Ruan Dayue can't be impeached, won't what we have done be in vain?"

Gu Lin gritted his teeth and said something, but he didn't want to scold Zhu Youjian, the dog emperor, for exhausting their efforts.

At this moment, Chu Guozuo shouted again: "Your Majesty, please kill Dong Zhining and dismiss Ruan Dayue!"

"Your Majesty, please kill Dong Zhining and dismiss Ruan Dayue!"

"Your Majesty, please kill Dong Zhining and dismiss Ruan Dayue!"

……

Zhu Youjian pulled his face down, and raised his long sword with one stroke: "Rebellious ministers and thieves, everyone will be punished. Xia Yunyi, Dong Zhining and others listen to my orders. These are not your brothers, but the rebellious thieves who are trying to harm my Ming Dynasty. Raise your gun and kill them all for me, if you don't leave any of them, if you dare to force me to kill my son, it's like rebelling against my ears!"

"Yes!"

In a short while, all the [-] guards officers and soldiers raised the Chongzhen [-]-style flintlock guns, and the crackling bullets hit them.

Chu Guozuo and other scholars threatened to kill Dong Zhining, and Dong Zhining and other guards won't be polite to these scholars after they got Zhu Youjian's order.

All of a sudden, these extremely arrogant members of the Duan Literature Club fell down in a large piece, blood and blood all over the ground.

But Gu Lin, Chu Guozuo and others all looked horrified, they never expected that His Majesty would really do something to them.

Almost in an instant, many members of the Duan Literature Club lost their courage and fled in despair.

"Stop them, don't leave a single one behind! Quickly solve it, if you want to kill, kill them all, don't leave any future troubles, and don't expand the influence!"

Zhu Youjian is too lazy to be sympathetic to others now. These literati in front of him have been raised by Daming En for 200 years, and they are already arrogant to the point of ignoring their emperor's dignity. Maybe it really takes a few more killings like this to make these people Realize what the Wrath of the Emperor is.

"Yes!"

Ever since Wang Chengen was threatened by civil servants Zhu Youjian to kill him, he was no longer as lenient as before. After nodding, he took five hundred Dongchang soldiers and drew his sword into the white smoke filled place where the members of the Duan Literature Club gathered. , The sharp knife pierced the chests of some members who were still alive without hesitation.

There were screams one after another, and almost all the surviving members of the Duan Literature Club felt scared at this moment, and hurriedly prostrated on the ground in the direction where Zhu Youjian was, and even kowtowed to the people of Dongchang and the officers and soldiers of the Guards: "Please forgive me, please forgive me!" Ah, we know we were wrong!"

"Forgive me, forgive me!"

Gu Lin was also shrinking, and he could only utter these two words with his trembling mouth.

Chu Guozuo, on the other hand, lay down on the ground and burrowed into the pile of dead people.

These scholars who were quite complacent at first realized the majesty of the emperor at this moment.

Amidst the crackling gunshots, most of these stubborn members of the Duan Literature Club fell into a pool of blood.

……

At this time, Gao Hongtu and Chen Shiding in the mansion also heard the gunshots and screams outside, and hurried out.

When Gao Hongtu and Chen Shiding came out, they saw the bloody scene in front of them, and some students were still kneeling on the ground, killing like leeks, and they immediately showed horror.

"Oh my god, how could this happen!"

Gao Hongtu ran out without hesitation, but happened to see Zhu Youjian's face, and hurriedly knelt down in front of Zhu Youjian:

"Your Majesty, this, this, why is this, Your Majesty, they are all scholars of my Daming, they are guilty of besieging Weichen's mansion, but they are not guilty of this, please forgive them, please forgive them Bar!"

"Forgive them, they are trying to overthrow me and support the crown prince to ascend the throne, and they want to give my country to Jiannu, why should I spare them! If I don't kill them, how can I calm the anger of our guards! How can I stabilize the morale of the army! The matter has risen to the military level, so you don't have to worry about it!"

Zhu Youjian yelled loudly, and continued to decree that all these chaotic parties must be killed!No future troubles!
At this time, Chen Shiding saw the battle, his face was already pale with fright, knowing that things had changed a lot, he didn't dare to come again, he hurriedly retreated to the Gaofu, looking for the courtyard wall in the Gaofu to go out, suddenly saw a The dog hole drilled directly into the other dog hole, fearing that it would be discovered by Zhu Youjian's people.

Only Gao Hongtu is still here desperately trying to persuade Zhu Youjian.

But Zhu Youjian naturally didn't listen. He already hated the arrogance of these literati to the marrow.

Now these scholars don't even respect the guards. Even if he wants to ensure the loyalty of the guards to him, he has to let the guards slaughter these members of the high-end literary club.

Only in this way can the Guards and the civilian clique be completely opposed, and can they completely control the military power of the Guards without being controlled by the civil clique.

"Since His Majesty insists on strictly enforcing the military law, the old minister has no face to persuade him any more. Please Your Majesty also demote the old minister's position as chief assistant. I dare not accept it again. I'm afraid no one will dare to accept the position again in the future!"

Gao Hongtu took off the black gauze cap inexplicably in grief, and at this time Gu Lin crawled towards Gao Hongtu:

"Shoufu, Shoufu, save me, I am Gu Lin, grandson of Duke Wen of Gu Duan! Help me, I don't want to die!"

At this time, Ruan Dayue got off the horse and took the long sword from Zhu Youjian's hand, walked up to Gu Lin coldly, and pierced Gu Lin's throat with the sword.

Gu Lin was killed on the spot!

At the same time, Ruan Dayue directly knelt in front of Zhu Youjian: "Your Majesty, the words of the chief assistant are absurd. What you killed today were only rebellious officials and thieves. In the future, your majesty can drive the literati to have a lot of money. I am willing to lead the chief assistant." To revive the imperial court for His Majesty!"

After Ruan Dayue said that, he glanced at Gao Hongtu provocatively. Gao Hongtu's eyes widened in anger. He didn't expect Ruan Dayue to do this. Not only did he kill Dong Lin like Gu Lin, but he also directly expressed his support for His Majesty's massacre of scholars like this. .

"You! You are shameless!"

Gao Hongtu shouted.

"No, I'm not shameless, I'm just loyal to His Majesty, not to scholar-bureaucrats!" Ruan Dayue responded loudly to Gao Hongtu.
