Ming Dynasty: My Brother-in-law is Zhu Youxiao

  Chapter 67 Whipping the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, a rebellious minister is a rebellious minister!

   Tianqi followed the sound and looked over.

At this time, Zhou Yanru said to Tianqi: "Your Majesty only made this decision for the sake of the country because I heard that the army of slaves was oppressing the country, and they were about to slaughter Xishan and trap Your Majesty. Loyalty, Kuan Enchen, wait!"

   "Are you all loyal?"

   Tian Qi asked with a sneer.

   Then, Tianqi shouted loudly: "Bring Zhang Cunren up!"

   Not long after, Zhang Cunren was brought up.

  Tian Qi said: "Tell them, what is going on with your entry this time?"

In order to reduce the punishment, Zhang Cunren didn't dare to lie at this time, so he said: "Li Sancai of the Donglin Party wrote to our frontier general in Liao, saying that if we still want to continue to pay Liao's salary, we should send troops into the pass and slaughter Xishan. All the Han refugees who were hired by the uncle of the country to work in Xishan seized the property of Xishan, destroyed the Xichang and the Military Academy. The criminals directly lured the captives into the customs, because His Majesty has been in the Armed Forces Academy these days, and he asked the criminals to take Jiannu to ensure that the operation is safe, and by the way, use Jiannu's desire to enter the Central Plains to kill His Majesty. In Xishan, or taken away by captives."

   "Slander! Your Majesty, he is slandering!"

   Zhou Yanru roared hastily.

  Zhang Cunren took out Zhou Yanru's personal letter: "The criminal has evidence that he colluded with the criminal to do this! The criminal never thought that one day he would show it."

  Tian Qi took Zhou Yanru's autographed letter, and then looked at Zhou Yanru: "Is this what you call loyalty? Loyal enough to want to kill me by the hand of Jian Nu?"

  Zhou Yanru cried: "Your Majesty, please forgive me!"

"I know that you don't want me to continue to be the emperor of the world. You want to kill me. I can understand. But you have repeatedly told me that you want to implement a benevolent government, and you also said that you are speaking faithfully for the people of the world. As a result, you Is this how you love the people? You want to slaughter tens of thousands of people in Xishan! Where did they go wrong? Tell me, where did they go wrong?!"

   Tianqi asked loudly.

   Zhou Yanru didn't answer, but just cried and begged for mercy.

  Tian Qi didn't ask any more questions, and only entered the Xiyuan. After seeing Zhang Yan with pear blossoms and rain, he showed a slight smile.

   Before returning to Taikangbo Mansion, Zhang Gui looked back and saw that the civil servants who petitioned began to be taken away by the factory guards, and some civil servants who petitioned were still begging for mercy unwillingly.

  At this time, Zhao Nanxing suddenly walked up to Zhang Gui: "Please, Uncle Guo, please intercede for these petitioning ministers!"

  Zhang Gui was a little surprised, he didn't expect that Zhao Nanxing would suddenly come and ask him to intercede for these traitors.

   "Why does the royal family plead for these rebellious ministers?"

   Zhang Gui asked accordingly.

  Zhao Nanxing really couldn't bear the fact that all these petitioning civil servants were implicated in the nine clans.

   You must know that many of them are members of his Donglin party.

In history, Zhao Nanxing, who was a staunch supporter of the Donglin Party and even took the lead in using the power of the Jingcha to engage in the party's unanimity and dissent, didn't want his Donglin Party to be further damaged by this incident, so he had to put all his eggs in one basket. Looking for Zhang Gui.

  He knew that if he went to intercede, the emperor would not do it for him.

  But Zhao Nanxing believed that the emperor would listen to Zhang Gui.

"Uncle Guo still doesn't understand, all of this is because of you now, if you didn't start some kind of industry in Xishan University, absorb tens of thousands of refugees, and vigorously develop strange skills to flatter His Majesty, It makes the righteous people in the world have to take this risky move, and it can be said that the disharmony between the monarch and the ministers in the Ming Dynasty is all caused by the disaster of the uncle of the country."

  Zhao Nanxing spoke excitedly.

   "Why, is it wrong for me to do this?"

   Zhang Gui asked angrily.

  Zhao Nanxing replied: "Uncle Guo should understand that you are competing for the interests of the people by doing this! You are even pulling your majesty to compete for the interests of the people!"

"Why don't you just say that the royal family is competing for profit with the scholar-bureaucrats, why bother to mention the word 'people', even if the royal family hires an old woman who sweeps leaves, it is to make wages for three feet of cotton cloth, you say that the royal family and The people are fighting for profit, what is the benefit of the royal family fighting for an old woman!"

   Zhang Gui said.

  Zhao Nanxing sneered, and said in a low voice: "In the eyes of Uncle Guo, you actually think that people who are worthless are people?"

   Then, Zhao Nanxing said again: "It's no wonder that uncle Guo was also a grassroots person before he was a dignitary."

Zhao Nanxing said and directly threatened: "But Uncle Guo is right, you are indeed taking advantage of the world's scholar-bureaucrats, and Uncle Guo should understand that if Uncle Guo doesn't seize this opportunity now If we give the world’s scholar-bureaucrats the image of daring to protect scholars, then our scholar-bureaucrats will not allow Uncle Guo to continue taking advantage of the world’s people in this way, and what Zhou Yanru and the others have done is probably just the beginning.”

"Everything in the world is controlled by the scholars, and only scholars who dare to speak out for the affairs of the world outside the Xiyuan Gate today are good men in the world. The uncle of the country does not sell them personal favors. Is it true that they have not been favored by the scholar-bureaucrats?" Rong, have you been targeted by scholars all over the world?!"

   Immediately, Zhao Nanxing continued to ask Zhang Gui: "Could it be that Uncle Guo still thinks they are rebellious ministers? Scholars talk about the safety of the world, how can it be called treason!"

Snapped!

   Zhang Gui whipped his whip directly towards Zhao Nanxing's face.

  A bright red welt suddenly appeared on Zhao Nanxing's face, and Liang Guan was also blown away.

Zhang Gui pointed at Zhao Nanxing with his whip after whipping it and said, "Don't you **** threaten me! It may be useful if you threaten other honorable royal relatives with this, but it won't work with this royal relative." !"

"What kind of nonsense scholar, don't give me the scholasticism to intimidate people. In my eyes, the one who dares to fight for the country is a good man! Others, no matter who they are, commit the crime of treason, that is Rebel!"

As he said that, Zhang Gui said to Zhao Nanxing: "You better be careful, don't take advantage of violations of laws and regulations, hoard for odds, smuggle smugglers, and mint copper coins privately because you are the minister of officials! The factory will keep watching you! Let you threaten me!"

Zhang Gui knows that in this era, scholars control public opinion and thoughts, and after scholars brainwash their brains with history pens for thousands of years, many people in the world believe that the group of scholars represents the conscience and justice of this society, including some emperors, nobles, and ordinary people in history. What's more, the respect for scholars has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

   But in fact, a scholar does not really represent Wei Guangzheng, and it will even be worse because of reading a book!

  Zhang Gui was not influenced by the thinking of this era, and naturally he would not be threatened by Zhao Nanxing, and even now he only feels angry.

  Because Zhao Nanxing is now acting like Zhao Gao, playing tricks in front of him, but he doesn't have much strength, and he belongs to the kind of person who is addicted to vegetables.

  So, Zhang Gui was not polite at all, he whipped Zhao Nanxing directly, and threatened Zhao Nanxing instead.

Zhao Nanxing was very surprised. He thought that Zhang Gui would understand what he meant, and compromised with the scholars all over the world by pleading with the emperor for these civil officials. In the end, not only did he not intend to compromise, but he directly whipped himself, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, a little bit. He also didn't mean to respect himself, the boss of Donglin, a second-rank official, and even threatened himself, saying bluntly that the one who goes to battle to kill the enemy is a good man, and he didn't mean to respect the scholars in the world.

   "Uncle Zhang Guo! Why do you have to be like this, can't you say something well?!"

  Yang Lian, the censor of Zuodu, couldn't stand it anymore, so he came over and asked a question.

Zhang Gui pointed at him with a whip: "I don't have any good things to say here. Don't talk to me if you don't want to hear it! If you can't take it anymore, then go and invite another Jian slave to enter the customs! Anyway, there are some things and some people It’s not impossible to do it.”

   "Why did Uncle Zhang Guo speak so harshly? It was only Zhou Yanru and the others who lured captives into the customs. What does it have to do with me, Yang Dahong!"

  Yang Lian retorted.

   "It doesn't matter. I don't like his surname Zhao, so I want to beat him. What does it have to do with you?"

   "If you want to participate, then participate!"

   "But it's not up to you to educate me! When you have the ability to support tens of thousands of refugees, go and capture a slave yellow belt, and get tens of millions of taels of silver for the court, and then educate me!"

   "Otherwise, one more beep beep, my royal family doesn't care who you are, just shake your fist first!"

  Zhang Gui has now figured out all the truths. In this society where people’s wisdom is not developed, no one is really willing to abide by the rules, and whoever has a hard fist decides everything!

  Yang Lian blushed and had a thick neck: "You!"

  Seeing this, Zhao Nanxing hurriedly stopped Yang Lian: "You don't have to do this."

  Yang Lian looked at Zhao Nanxing in surprise: "Me!"

Then, Zhao Nanxing took the initiative to bow to Zhang Gui and said, "It was the old man who took the liberty to offend Uncle Guo just now, please forgive him, Uncle Guo just hit the whip by mistake, how dare the old man blame Uncle Guo Lord?"

   As he spoke, Zhao Nanxing looked at Yang Lian and reproached him, "Your Majesty is making too much fuss!"

  Yang Lian: "..."

Then, Zhao Nanxing smiled flatteringly at Zhang Gui: "I just ask Uncle Guo not to let Xichang stare at Hanfu. It's just that I'm afraid this will scare my family, so I ask Uncle Guo to be considerate."
