Ming Dynasty man

Chapter 602

"How dare the prince judge the commander's intentions?" Su Heng asked.

"Do you still remember that the commander-in-chief patted me a few times before he left?" Wang Chengen said with a smile: "This action is the commander-in-chief telling me his purpose."

Smiling, Wang Chengen continued: "As for what the commander-in-chief asked me to mention to you? Naturally, it is because you did not understand what the commander-in-chief said and it is not convenient for the commander-in-chief to tell you."

"Ah! You mean, I didn't understand what the commander-in-chief said about Wen Jingzhi?" Su Heng exclaimed.

Seeing that Su Heng's expression suddenly became tense, Wang Chengen said with a smile: "Hehe, what do you think? You, Wen Qing, and Zhang Tongchang are all the commander's book office, and they are all people around the commander. Otherwise, the commander-in-chief would not have kept you by his side.

What Wen Qing did this time is not in line with the Marshal's wishes. After you know it, if you don't tell Wen Qing, who will tell Wen Qing?

If you understand what the commander-in-chief means, you shouldn't ask the commander-in-chief if he wants to tell Wen Qing what he said. You asked, how should the commander-in-chief answer? "

"Oh, I'm so confused, I don't understand such a simple truth." Su Heng said angrily.

Wang Chengen looked at Su Heng with a smile and said: "Mr. Su, don't be nervous. In fact, this matter is a good thing for you. It shows that the commander-in-chief wants to support you."

Seeing Su Heng's puzzled face, Wang Chengen smiled and said, "Actually, the reason why the commander-in-chief didn't want to mention you directly is because what I said just now should not have come from the commander-in-chief. Think about it, how can the commander-in-chief instigate his subordinates?" Try to figure out what you want. Even if you can talk, it's only been a few days since you've been with the commander-in-chief? The commander-in-chief will never say these things to you now.

In fact, these principles should be taught to you by your predecessors, that is, Zhang Tongchang and Wen Qing, but the commander-in-chief temporarily decided to keep them in Nanjing on business, and you were also temporarily transferred by the commander-in-chief, so these principles of being a subordinate No one will tell you.

The commander-in-chief of your work in the past few months is still very satisfied. The commander-in-chief thinks that you are a talented person, so I want to mention you. Zhang Tongchang and Wen Qing are not here, so the commander-in-chief asked me to replace them teach you. "

Su Heng got up hurriedly when he heard the words, and bowed deeply to Wang Chengen: "So that's the case, thank you, Eunuch Wang, for your guidance."

Wang Chengen smiled: "Actually, some things are not taught by others, you have to comprehend them yourself. No matter how much I say, but you can't see or hear it, it's still useless. In addition, there is another most critical question , That is, after you understand the intention of the commander-in-chief, you must grasp the scale, and you must not overdo it. The so-called overdoing is too much. You are also a person who has read poetry and books, and you must understand this ideal."

Su Heng gave a long salute and said: "Listening to your words is better than reading ten years of books. My students thank you, Eunuch Wang, for your guidance."

Wang Chengen sighed softly and said: "It's a pity that I followed the emperor, otherwise...cough! Forget it, don't talk about it, you should hurry up and do what the commander told you. Bring back the counted numbers."

"Wang Gonggong wait a moment." Su Heng said hurriedly.

After finishing speaking, Su Heng went to the desk, spread paper and ink, thought for a while, and quickly wrote two letters to Zhang Tongchang and Wen Qing.

……

What Li Jing didn't expect was that the news that the students in Nanjing were planning to cancel the exam soon spread to the capital, and got a response from the students in the capital. Countless people wrote to Li Jing, asking Li Jing to cancel those exam questions.The turbulent public sentiment made Li Jing feel a little at a loss.

In the cabinet office, Li Jing looked at the reports sent by the government offices in various places with a sullen face.

After flipping through it for a while, Li Jing slammed the memorial onto the table: "Waste, a group of waste, surrounded by students and unable to deal with government affairs. Are all the servants in the yamen just for nothing? Don't you know how to arrest people?"

Yuan Shu looked at Li Jing, and said in a low voice, "Return to Commander, those students are holding up the tablet of the most holy teacher, and officials from all over the place dare not move it lightly."

Li Jing said angrily: "Fart! Holding a dead man's tablet can force officials to bind their hands and feet. If there is a war, and the enemy holds the tablet of our ancestors, don't we have to surrender? Yes Don't you have to back away!"

After glaring at Yuan Shu, Li Jing waved his hand impatiently: "Stand up as soon as you speak, with so many etiquettes all day long, it's annoying to watch."

Turning his head to look at Su Heng, Li Jing asked, "Has Chen Dahu's booklet come yet? Nanjing is the first to have an accident, so he is lucky to sit on Diaoyutai, and he hasn't given any news yet."

Gao Qi said with a smile: "Don't worry, Commander. It must be that Dahu doesn't want to say these things to bother the Commander. I guess he will find a way to solve it."

As soon as Gao Qi finished speaking, the guard outside the door shouted loudly: "Nanjing urgent report."

"Send it in quickly!" Li Jing shouted.

Immediately, the door of the study opened, and a guard came in with a letter in his hand, and presented the letter up.

Xiao Jiu stepped forward to take it, turned around and handed it to Li Jing.Li Jing took it, opened it and read it quickly.

"Marshal, what did Du Hu say in his letter?" Yuan Shu asked.

"It's not Dahu's letter, it's the impeachment of Chen Dahu by the Jiangsu chief envoy and his subordinate academic and political officials." Li Jing shook his head and said.

"What? Impeach Chen Dahu?" Yuan Shu and Gao Qi were taken aback when they heard the words, and stood up at the same time: "Has Dahu sent troops to arrest people?"

Li Jingjing nodded: "Not only arresting people, but also smashing all the tablets held by the students."

"Ah!" Yuan Shu and Gao Qi were stunned when they heard the words.

……

At the governor's office in Nanjing, Chen Dahu looked coldly at the officials below and sneered, "What's the matter, impeach me? If I'm afraid of impeachment by your grandsons, I won't be able to be the governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang."

"Master Chen, we are all court officials, why are we so rude?" an official asked loudly.

"What the hell, do you dare to call yourself an imperial court official? Your yamen is blocked and you can't deal with government affairs. You can't even solve such a trivial matter. Are you worthy of calling yourself an imperial imperial order?" Chen Dahu glanced at the man and said with a sneer.

"We are descendants of Confucianism, how can the tablet of the most holy teacher be moved lightly?" the man said seriously.

Chen Dahu suddenly laughed when he heard the words: "Are you making fun of me for not having read?"

He slapped the table violently, and Chen Dahu shouted sharply: "Even if I have never read a book, I know the responsibilities entrusted to me by the imperial court. One hundred thousand soldiers in the south are waiting for us to deliver food to them. You are hiding in the yamen and cannot come out to deal with official duties. Things, who the hell can afford it?
Liu Chuanming, can't you move your tablet?Come on!Give him all those tablets, let him go home holding these tablets! "

"Chen Dahu, I am a fourth-rank official appointed by the imperial court. You have no right to dismiss me!" Liu Chuanming shouted loudly.

Chen Dahu laughed when he heard the words: "Don't say that you are a fourth-rank official. Even if you are a second-rank and first-rank official, as long as you are in my territory, you must obediently obey my orders. Come, Liu Chuanming will delay the military plane and let me take it down."

"Yes!" The four soldiers entered the courtroom in response.

Everyone was shocked when they heard the words, and then they remembered that Chen Dahu was not only the governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but also the governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang's military affairs. Now Jiangsu and Zhejiang are in charge of dispatching military rations to the front line. It is impossible to say that Chen Dahu was wrong, moreover, delaying the military plane can range from a military club to a serious beheading, and Chen Dahu has the final say on how to convict him.If he didn't intercede for Liu Chuanming at this time, once Chen Dahu got angry and sentenced to beheaded, then everything would be over.

Wanting to understand this point, everyone hastily bowed and said: "Master Chen calm down, please be merciful."

Zhang Tongchang and Wen Qing in the crowd looked at each other, and Wen Qing stepped forward and said, "Master Chen, in fact, Master Liu and you adults mainly do not want to stir up civil uprisings, not because they don't want to deal with those students, nor because they don't want to deal with official affairs. The matter is too serious, if there is a civil uprising, everyone will be involved, even the adults are afraid that they will inevitably be punished by the commander in chief, please learn from Master Chen."

"Are you really afraid of stirring up a civil uprising?" Chen Dahu glanced at the crowd coldly.

"Master Wen's words are not bad, but he is afraid of provoking a civil uprising." Everyone hurriedly said.

Chen Dahu turned his head to look at Liu Chuanming: "Do you think so too?"

Hearing Chen Dahu's inquiry, Liu Chuanming knew that this was Chen Dahu's last chance for him, and his life and death depended only on his own words.

He cupped his hands at Chen Dahu, and Liu Chuanming hurriedly said, "Your official really thinks so."

It's not that Liu Chuanming doesn't want to be tough, but he's neither pleading for the people nor fighting against the powerful. It's justifiable for Chen Dahu to take him for the crime of delaying the military plan. It's really not worth being killed for being stubborn.

"Then why isn't the governor afraid of provoking a civil uprising?" Chen Dahu asked.

"This..." Liu Chuanming said with a wry smile, "I don't have the courage of Mr. Chen."

"Hmph!" Chen Dahu pointed at the crowd and said, "Listen to me, you must have the courage to work under me. As long as you work hard and follow the imperial court's rules, you will have no taboos, even if you smash the sky. , I will stand up for you too. But if you want to play tricks on me, don't blame me for being rude!
Now you all go back to your respective yamen for Lao Tzu, if the students are still besieging the yamen with tablets, smash their tablets for Lao Tzu and arrest everyone. "

"This... Sir, can you tell me what to do when you are arrested? You can't keep him locked up without a name, right?" Liu Chuanming asked.

Chen Dahu sneered and said: "Shut up? I have to take care of their food after shutting them down. How can there be such a cheap thing? Let's see how I deal with these shitty days. Come on, get those troublesome students Bring it up, old man!"

When the soldiers heard the order, they hurried down to lead the men.After a while, a group of soldiers escorted hundreds of students to the courtyard in front of the hall, and the soldiers shouted, "Report to Commander-in-Chief, they have been brought here."

Chen Dahu smiled, waved to everyone, got up and left the office, and walked out of the hall, everyone hurriedly followed.

After leaving the court, Chen Dahu stopped and said to the students: "My name is Chen Dahu, I am the current governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and I gave the order to send troops to arrest you.

I know that you are dissatisfied, and I also know that you look down on me.But I don’t need you to obey me, let alone look down on me, because you are nothing in my eyes.

Tell me what you can do?farming?I'm afraid you can't even recognize the five grains.go to battle?Can you hold a knife?business?Will it count?Do you think you are great after reading a little book?Do you feel that if you have fame, you are a head above others?
I know that the purpose of your studies is to become an official, but you can be a fart official if you don't know the five grains, don't work hard, and don't even know the east, west, south, and north.If the court uses people like you as officials, it will end up in a yellow shop in a few years.

I know what I said, you are not convinced in your heart, if you don't accept it, pull it out!Who wants to stand up against Lao Tzu's theory! "
