Ming Dynasty: My father Yongle, Forever Reigns Over Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 229: Old Jintou, I was deceived by Prince Han!

Latest website:

A massive execution viewing event came to an end.

All the civil and military officials vomited all over the floor. Their calves were still soft when they walked and they needed someone to help them walk.

As for the eunuchs and eunuchs like Little Sniff, they were even more miserable, and they even had to ask people to carry them.

It is not difficult to see from these performances that they are really afraid.

When others kill chickens to scare monkeys, they are really killing chickens to scare monkeys.

But this Prince Han was different. He held the monkey down forcefully and watched the chicken being chopped alive!

Thinking of the horrific scene of Ma Qi being cut into pieces and executed by Ling Chi, many people began to retching again. They must have had a bad night.

Zhu Gaoxu looked at the backs of these people with a smile and stretched lazily.

Xia Yuanji, Jin Zhong and other giants hadn't left yet, looking at Prince Han with strange expressions.

Prince Han, we can understand that you are trying to scare the monkeys and fight against corruption.

But why did you let these eunuchs come here? And you even chopped up that Ma Qi in public...

Hearing this, Jin Zhong also covered his mouth and nose, and answered with disdain: Yes, these eunuchs were scared to the point of peeing. It is really insulting to gentlemen. I am ashamed to be in their company!

After Zhu Gaoxu heard this, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

This ancient literati always regarded himself as noble and noble, and was looked down upon by everyone.

But if they really had to rank them, the one they despised and despised the most would have to be the eunuchs.

In the eyes of literati, eunuchs and eunuchs are not considered normal men. Their bodies, hair and skin are inherited by their parents, but they acted rebelliously and cut them off. Not only does it violate the ideas of the sages, but they cannot continue the family line. How can they still be called men?

That's a shame for men!

In the eyes of officials, eunuchs and eunuchs were all the emperor's domestic slaves and should not participate in national affairs, let alone control the court's official weapons and hold great power.

What's more, in all dynasties, eunuchs took advantage of power and ruined governance, leading to the collapse of the dynasty, such as Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty and Shi Changshi.

Therefore, since ancient times, there has been a natural incompatibility between literati and eunuchs.

To clear his name, any literati who befriends eunuchs will immediately be attacked by a group of people and will be shamed by the scholars.

The second is political needs. All civilized officials want to do is seize the power of the government and rule the world with the emperor. How can they tolerate a group of eggless idiots to get involved?

Therefore, after hearing the words of the two men, Prince Han also said that he could understand.

Everyone, the reason why I did this is not to scare those eggless idiots and to solve the hidden dangers for my old man.

Upon hearing this, Xia Yuanji and Jin Zhong were both stunned and fell into deep thought.

The Gao Emperor learned from the experience and lessons of eunuchs in previous dynasties in exercising power, so he treated eunuchs very harshly, and even set the ancestral motto that eunuchs are not allowed to participate in politics, and those who violate it will be killed.

Emperor Jianwen was deeply influenced by Confucianism and also despised eunuchs and eunuchs. Therefore, eunuchs were severely suppressed in the Jianwen Dynasty, which was even more difficult than in the Hongwu Dynasty.

However, because of this, those eunuchs and eunuchs hated Emperor Jianwen so much that the central eunuchs secretly took refuge with the emperor who was still King Yan at the time. They reported the news in the early stages of the Jingnan period and opened the gates of the capital in the later stages of the Jingnan period. They assisted the emperor in successfully suppressing the Jianwen period, so the eunuchs and eunuchs He became a confidant of the emperor today.

And because eunuchs such as Zheng He and Wang Gouer made great achievements in the Battle of Jingnan, today's people have great trust in eunuchs and even set the precedent of letting eunuchs guard one side.

For example, Wang Gou'er served as the eunuch guarding Liaodong, and his political achievements were also very good.

But more often than not, it is the treacherous eunuchs like Ma Qi who, in the name of the emperor's personal servant, are domineering and domineering in the local area, plundering the people's fat and anointing, causing local complaints and anger.

After all, eunuchs and eunuchs have no ability in that area. Once they have power, they can only be greedy for money.

Zhu Gaoxu was also lost in thought, but what he was thinking about was how to solve the problem of eunuchs.

The most notorious feature of the Ming Dynasty was the factory guard system.

The emperor gave those eunuchs and eunuchs so much power that the Ming Dynasty was troubled by these eggless people. There were even fierce men like Wei Zhongxian who was 9,000 years old.

And the worst thing is that because of the Tumubao Incident, the military attache group was completely ruined. The civil servant group took the opportunity to seize the power of the court. In addition, Husky reshaped the power of the prime minister in the cabinet. As a result, all future emperors of the Ming Dynasty had to rely on those civil servants. Scholar-bureaucrat.

In order to regain power from the civil service group, the military attachés and ministers were left with only two or three cats and dogs. The Ming Emperor had no choice but to reuse eunuchs and eunuchs who had no eggs but were obedient and sensible!

As a result, in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, a deformed political ecology was formed in which civil servants and eunuchs fought and the emperor stood high. It would be strange if such a dynasty did not perish!

I don’t know if Comrade Zhu Chongba knows about it underground, whether the coffin board can be held down!

But fortunately now, Zhu Laosi has not yet opened the East Factory, but there are dead eunuchs like Ma Qi who are domineering in the local area. There is still a chance to remedy everything.

Now there are just some misbehaving guard eunuchs like Ma Qi. Zhu Gaoxu believed that after he was executed by Ling Chi in front of everyone, those eggless bastards would keep a low profile in the future and would not dare to act recklessly even if they were released from the palace.

Facing this group of poor people without eggs, Zhu Gaoxu expressed his sympathy.

If I could live a decent life, I would rather have a little green on my head than take that knife!

Thinking about it, Zhu Gaoxu explained again: You also see what Ma Qi did. Let the eunuch guard one side. This must never happen.

Before these eunuchs gained power, they were all groveling and flattering. Once they are released from the palace and gain power, they will become a cancerous scourge!

The king intends to send a seal to my old man. If I can get all of you to sign the note, then the job will be considered a success.

Hearing this, Xia Yuanji, Jin Zhong and others nodded without hesitation.

They have long been unhappy with those eunuchs. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net They wish they could all be dragged out to show their heads to the public!

However, everyone in the government and the public knew that the emperor valued eunuchs, and Zheng He, Wang Gouer and other virtuous eunuchs had made great achievements, so no one dared to comment on this matter.

At this moment, the arrogant and domineering Prince of Han is determined to attack the eunuchs. They are eager to do this and let the King of Han charge in the front while they wave flags and cheer...

Zhu Gaoxu nodded and suddenly said to Jin Zhong: Old Jintou, you are an old minister who follows my father Jingnan, and you are also a close confidant of my father who talks about everything. So this letter jointly signed by hundreds of officials is yours. Let's draft it, focus on what Ma Qi did in Jiaozhi, and then use this as a basis to painfully count the precedents of eunuchs in the past generations who have exercised power, and advise my father to return from his lost ways...

Jin Zhong: “???”

Your uncle!

You suggested it!

Shouldn't you take the lead and help us?

Why have you been working with you for a long time just to trick me into it?

The clown is myself!

Ahem, Your Highness the King of Han, let's talk about this...

You just said, is it beneficial to the country and the people?

yes!

Then are you an important minister of my Ming Dynasty?

yes!

Is eating the emperor's salary a matter of loyalty to the emperor?
