The Most Powerful Man in the World
Page 101
On the huge school grounds, millions of taels of silver were piled together, and the white silver shimmered with dazzling brilliance. Lu Wenyang took out [-] million taels of silver to reward the army, and took a full [-] million taels of silver in the size of a general. The general is fed.
A well-known soldier in ragged clothes took the heavy hundreds of taels of silver from Lu Wenyang with anticipation, and served as a soldier. Even if he knew that he was suspected of rebelling by following Lu Wenyang's Qingjun, he was short-handed and short-mouthed. Since they took so much money, it was a rebellion, and they all recognized it.
Looking at those soldiers, Lu Wenyang and Zhang Yong were full of hope. As long as the army wanted, they would go to the capital.
On the Grand Canal, the section from Tianjin City to the capital was completely blocked, and not a single ship could be seen on the canal, but downstream, a large ship carrying troops and horses came straight to Tianjin City.
Almost on the third day, there were an additional [-] soldiers and horses in Tianjin City, but the sources of these [-] soldiers and horses were very mixed, all of which were on the front line of the canal.
The guards on both sides of the Grand Canal have more than a hundred thousand soldiers and horses in the book. In fact, it is not bad to be able to collect half of them. Among them, if the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled are excluded, there are actually only ten or twenty thousand people.
Excluding some of the thousands of officials who were not Lu Wenyang's confidants, it can be said that most of Lu Wenyang's confidants came to the front line of the canal. As for those who were farther away, they rushed to Tianjin City as soon as they received the news.
I have to say that this time, Lu Wenyang really brought out all the information he had accumulated in the canal line for many years.
If the Qing Dynasty failed, the imperial court would not even need to clean the front line of the Grand Canal. Lu Wenyang alone would have emptied his own trusted confidants.
From Lu Wenyang's standpoint, it is his biggest goal to do everything in his power to win the capital. As long as he succeeds in rebuilding the universe, he is a powerful minister who dominates the world. How can a mere grand canal satisfy his appetite.
As for failure, if he really failed, it must be that his strength is not strong enough, so Lu Wenyang tried every means to gather his confidants and troops, and strive to succeed in the first battle.
On this day, a group of soldiers and horses entered Tianjin city surrounded by a carriage.
At the entrance of the Lu Mansion, Lu Wenyang, Zhang Yong, and a group of civil and military officials watched the carriage slowly approaching. When they approached, Lu Wenyang took a step forward and respectfully faced the carriageway: "Xiaguan Lu Wenyang pays respects to Lord Shoufu!"
There was no one else in the carriage, but it was Yang Tinghe, the chief assistant of the dynasty who came to investigate Lu Wenyang under the order of the Son of Heaven.
The door curtain was lifted, and Yang Tinghe sat in the carriage, looking at Lu Wenyang and the others with a calm expression. Everyone looked at Yang Tinghe, and they all had a feeling of being pierced by him.
Only Yang Tinghe shouted: "Lu Wenyang, you are so brave, what do you want to do?"
A smile flashed in Lu Wenyang's drooping eyes when he heard the words, he slowly raised his head to look at Yang Tinghe and said: "Master Shoufu, when today is a foolish and ignorant person, first favor Liu Jin, and then Chu Yi, and let the eunuch harass the court, Slaughtered the loyal and upright ministers in the court, such as Li Shi, Huang Huai, Huang Kui, etc."
Yang Tinghe snorted coldly: "As a minister, arguing against the emperor, this is a crime of great treason, do you know that?"
Lu Wenyang said in a high-pitched voice: "The Son of Heaven is being deceived by the robbers, I and other ministers should wake up the Son of Heaven, and ask the Lord Shoufu to climb up and shout, Xingyi Shi, the Qingjun side, and let me be bright and bright!"
"Master Xingyi, Qingjun's side!"
"Master Xingyi, Qingjun's side!"
The crowd of civil and military personnel and even the surrounding soldiers all shouted in unison.
Taking a step forward, Lu Wenyang said to Yang Tinghe, "Master Shoufu, please!"
Yang Tinghe shook his head slowly: "Tinghe Meng Tianzi is very trustworthy and entrusted with the position of the cabinet's first assistant. Although he can't stop your rebellious actions today, he will not be the same as you!"
Lu Wenyang didn't take it seriously, and said with a chuckle, "I believe that the adults will definitely stand up for the people of the world!"
After speaking, Lu Wenyang said respectfully, "Please enter the manor to rest, Lord Shoufu!"
After sending Yang Tinghe into the mansion, Lu Wenyang said with a solemn expression: "Everyone, there is a chief assistant here, we have a righteous name in hand, and immediately issue an order, raise troops into the capital, Qingjun's side, and eliminate eunuchs!"
A crowd of confidants clung to their promises.
Among the capital
On this day, thousands of people gathered in front of the Meridian Gate. In order to prevent accidents, the Governor's Office of the Fifth Army even mobilized troops and horses to enter the city to maintain order.
The criminals headed by Huang Huai and others were all escorted to the execution ground, and there were as many as a thousand people.
Surrounded by the emperor's decree came to supervise the execution of hundreds of Chinese military officials.
Among the hundreds of officials, many officials looked at the familiar figures in the execution ground. They might have been working together and listening to music together not long ago, but now they may soon be separated from Yin and Yang.
Some officials looked at Huang Huai and the others with pale faces, and their hearts were filled with sympathy.
As noon approached, even the people who were discussing all around seemed to feel that the chilling and depressing atmosphere gradually calmed down.
"His Majesty is here!"
Suddenly, I saw a Luan driver slowly approaching in the distance. Jinyiwei, Jinwuwei, and Yulinwei opened the way, and it was today Zizhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao's sudden arrival surprised many people, and they never thought that Zhu Houzhao would come to the court in person.
Chu Yi, who was sitting in the courtroom, was stunned for a moment, and then got up to greet him. The surrounding civil and military officials also accompanied Chu Yi to greet Zhu Houzhao.
"My ministers welcome His Majesty's holy peace!"
Zhu Houzhao slowly got down from the Luan's car, his eyes swept around, and finally he stretched out his hand and said: "All the Qing families are free from courtesy!"
Chu Yi stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the place of blood and suffocation, His Majesty's body of all saints..."
Zhu Houzhao shook his head and said, "I have come here to personally watch these rebellious people being punished."
The surrounding officials felt a chill in the heart of Zhu Houzhao's words. This emperor, who in the past had no imperial majesty in their eyes, seemed to have a bit of Taizu and Chengzu's shadow on his body at this moment.
Walking up to the high platform, Zhu Houzhao sat down, his eyes swept over Baiguan and said: "All the Qing's family should also take their seats, and join me in the execution. I also hope that all the ministers can learn from them, and don't make mistakes. Lose your life in vain."
"My ministers, please follow His Majesty's teachings!"
Noon has come, the sun is in the middle of the sky, and the yang is heavy.
Chu Yi bowed at Zhu Houzhao, got up slowly, glanced around, and both eyes fell on Chu Yi.
He heard Chu Yi shouting in a deep voice: "Bring the criminal and verify his identity!"
The first to be brought up were Huang Huai, Ma Yunzhang, Mo Qing and others.
A famous criminal was put on the beheading platform, and the executioners with the ghost-headed knives all over their bodies stood there. When the hoods were taken off, Huang Huai and the others, who were embarrassed, got used to the dazzling sunlight, and saw that they were sitting there. Zhu Houzhao, civil and military officials, and Chu Yi, who slowly picked up the token.
Behind him was the executioner who raised the ghost-headed knife, Huang Huai and others suddenly trembled and almost collapsed.
"Your Majesty, spare your life!"
"I know I'm wrong, please forgive me!"
"Duanjun, castrated thief, you must not die, hahaha..."
"His Majesty Taizu, you have a spirit in the sky, and my Daming Jiangshan will perish!"
Zhu Houzhao couldn't help frowning, and at the same time, Chu Yi shouted: "Cut!"
As the token fell to the ground, the ghost-head knife slashed through the void, and blood splashed one after another. The shouts of Huang Huai, Ma Yunzhang and others stopped abruptly, and their heads rolled to the ground.
Among the hundreds of officials, many people watched the heads roll down. Some people were so scared that cold sweat broke out on their foreheads, and some people were so scared that they urinated their pants. Similarly, there were also officials who kept their expressions on the sidelines.
"cut!"
As waves of criminals were brought up, dozens of executioners were slashed with a knife, and finally they were exhausted and panting. For more than an hour, the execution ground was filled with a thick bloody atmosphere, and many officials around him vomited. , and even some officials fainted.
Even Zhu Houzhao, who was sitting there, was pale at the moment, but he insisted on sitting there and refused to leave.
Among the crowd, a figure is quite striking, with a crown like jade, and a refined and refined temperament. If Sun Jingan, Li Yi and others who were escorted to the execution ground to be executed saw each other, they would definitely recognize that this person was the one who refused to be there in the first place. Song Yu, a disciple of Confucius who signed the remonstrance book.
Song Yu stood in the crowd, looking at Chu Yi, who was decisive in killing, and then looking at Zhu Houzhao, who was sitting firmly there, with a bit of solemn expression on his face.
When Li Yi, Sun Jingan and other scholars were brought up, they were crying and begging one by one.
Zhu Houzhao did not show mercy to these scholars, but chose to impose severe punishments as an example.
"cut!"
Seeing a famous scholar being beheaded, a stern look flashed in Song Yu's eyes in the crowd. Although he disdained Li Yi, Sun Jing'an and others at the beginning, he never thought that the emperor and Chu Yi would treat these scholars. The son was sentenced to death.
These scholars are the foundation of Confucianism to control the world, but now they are being slaughtered, how can Song Yuxin, who was born in Confucianism, not be angry.
"The emperor has no way, and he favors eunuchs. In the past, the violent Qin, burning books, and Confucian scholars were nothing more than this!"
On the long street, the horses galloped in a hurry, and when they saw the messenger, everyone's expressions changed and they hurriedly evaded to make way.
The [-]-mile rush messenger, anyone who dares to stop them, will die in vain if they hit him.
The messenger first went to the direction of the leopard room, and soon saw Qiu Ju, the general manager of the leopard room, rushing out of the leopard room with an ugly expression.
On the court, almost all the criminals were under the law. The sky was above the sky, and the sun was shining brightly. However, everyone looked at the corpses on the court, and they couldn't help but feel chills all over their bodies.
At this moment, an incomparably sharp shout came: "Report, [-] miles to hurry up and report, the cabinet chief assistant Yang Tinghe, the water transport governor Lu Wenyang, the internal official supervisor Zhang Yong, the Tianjin garrison Lu Wende, etc. rebelled and issued an order, On the side of Qingjun, go straight to the capital!"
Qiu Ju fell on the field with a pale expression, and bowed down in front of Zhu Houzhao, hurriedly presenting the express in his hands.
When Zhu Houzhao heard Qiu Ju's words, his expression couldn't help but change greatly. Previously, the anti-king Zhu Zhixiu raised an army to rebel under the banner of the Qing monarch, but fortunately, he was suppressed by the army led by Yang Yiqing, the chief of the three sides.
Unexpectedly, at the gate of the capital, Lu Wenyang, the governor of Caoyun, and others dared to play the banner of the Qingjun side.
Among the hundred officials, except for the few who fainted, it can be said that everyone heard Qiu Jufang's shout.
Everyone's expressions changed greatly, many people were refreshed when they heard this, some looked awe-inspiring, and some people were secretly overjoyed.
Zhu Houzhao quickly browsed the expedited express, slapped the table with a slap, and shouted angrily: "It's so arrogant, a corrupt governor in a mere district has the face to fight against the Qingjun, who gave him such courage. "
The furious Zhu Houzhao's face was ashen, obviously he was really angry.
Chu Yi got up and bowed down and said, "My minister is guilty!"
Baiguan reacted at this moment, and one by one, he quickly stood up and bowed to the ground. No matter what he thought in his heart, they all said they were guilty.
Zhu Houzhao threw a teacup at an official and shouted, "Guilty, guilty, what have you been doing on weekdays, what's the use of asking you to wait!"
After some thunder and anger, when Zhu Houzhao vented, Chu Yi glanced at Zhang Mao, the British official at the head, and Zhang Mao said slowly, "Your Majesty, please calm down, the most urgent thing is to consider how to deal with the rebels such as Lu Wenyang. "
Zhu Houzhao waved his sleeves, got up and said, "Let's drive back to the palace, all the officials will discuss Lu Wenyang's rebellion!"
As the hundreds of officials entered the palace, everyone around the court dispersed, but the news that Lu Wenyang, Yang Tinghe and others had raised troops to the Qingjun side also spread throughout the capital.
Countless people were stunned when they heard the news. Zhu Zhixiu felt very far away from opposing everyone. After all, Zhu Zhixiu was located in a border town, thousands of miles away from the capital. However, Tianjin City was so close to the capital that he was almost by his side.
Along the Grand Canal, the army can reach the capital in one day, so the capital suddenly boils.
In the palace, all the officials were noisy, and in the solemn and solemn hall, several patriarchs, nobles from the five armies' governor's office, and the urgently summoned generals of the Beijing camp, the originally spacious hall seemed a little crowded. .
Zhu Houzhao sat there, looking at everyone with a bad expression.
Chu Yi, British father Zhang Mao, and several elders sat there, while the rest of the noble generals stood solemnly, and the atmosphere seemed rather dignified.
[Well, continue to send the chapter, ask for a monthly pass, a monthly pass, a monthly pass]
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
The people present can be said to be the top group of people in the Ming Dynasty. Representatives of the civil servants and martial arts groups are all here.
Jiao Fang, who received the emperor's will and entered the cabinet, is now the second assistant. It can be said that in the absence of Yang Tinghe, he is equivalent to the cabinet's first assistant.
Especially just now, under the anger of the emperor, Yang Tinghe's cabinet has been removed from the position of first assistant, and Jiao Fang has been promoted to the cabinet's first assistant.
After all, among the Eight Hundred Miles of Emergency Reports, Yang Tinghe was also one of the people on the side of the Qingjun, and he might even be a very important person among them.
Even Jiang Mian and Fei Hong, the elders who had a deep relationship with Yang Tinghe on weekdays, did not dare to stand up and speak for Yang Tinghe at that time.
