Six hundred and fifteen chapters dispute in the palace

Chen Jichuan and Zhan Ming prepared a carriage for Lin Yanchao.

Lin Yanchao walked to the main hall and heard a quarrel.

Lin Yanchao walked to the hall, but saw two disciples, Tao Wangling and Xu Huobo, who were arguing with Sun Chengzong.

Lin Yanchao raised his face and said, "What are you doing?"

Tao Wangling and Xu Huobo saw Lin Yanchao and lowered his head and said, "Teacher."

Lin Yanchao asked Sun Chengzong: "What are they going to do?"

Sun Chengzong did not dare to say that, but Tao Wangling bowed to Lin Yanchao, then stood up and said, "Teacher, all the scholars knocked on the palace in front of Chang'an Gate, but the disciples are willing to go with them."

Xu Huobo also knelt down and said, "Teacher, disciples must go with you too!"

Seeing the two of them, Lin Yanchao nodded and said, "Okay, you guys go."

Tao Wangling and Xu Huobo were stunned.

"Don't say I'm my disciple after leaving this sect."

"Teacher." Tao Wangling and Xu Huobo said anxiously.

Sun Chengzong and Lin Yanchao said: "Dongweng, these two disciples are just acting irritable, so don't be angry."

Lin Yanchao said: "I'm not angry, I just regret that I can't make you stronger."

With Lin Yanchao's accumulated power, Xu Huobo dared not say anything at the moment, but his face was full of anxiety.

But Tao Wangling raised his head and said, "Teacher, these scholars are knocking to the emperor for the sake of the teacher's Yongjia Sutra. As our teachers' disciples, how can we feel if we don't go?"

Lin Yanchao said: "Didn't my academic scholar ask you to knock on the palace and give advice and disturb the sages? Can you afford it?"

Tao Wangling said with tears in his eyes: "Teacher, the students are crying and bleeding. Why don't we know how to knock on the palace and disturb the saint's way? But do scholars outside Chang'an Gate also know? It's just that we all know where the righteousness lies. For what the teacher learns, we would rather bear sin than see the sages cut off the teachings of sages in our hands."

Lin Yanchao shook his head and said, "You are too reckless."

Tao Wangling said: "Disciples are reckless and know that the matter of knocking on the palace is of great danger. But even if they fail, they can let the world know that Yongjia's learning is not a private study of one or two people, but someone shed blood and sacrificed for it. Confucius traveled around the country and was trapped in Chen and Cai, but did not change his ambition. As long as the teacher is there, there will be hope for Yongjia's classics. We can just accept the efforts of this charge."

When Xu Huobo heard Tao Wangling say this, he immediately cried: "Teacher, the saint teaches us to sacrifice our lives for righteousness. Yongjia Sutra is where righteousness lies. I am willing to sacrifice our lives to follow it."

Seeing Xu Huobo like this, Sun Chengzong couldn't help but raise his sleeves to try to cry.

Lin Yanchao sighed: "Without you, I'm alone, what's the use of being a teacher? I've decided to enter the palace, so you can stay here."

"Teacher!" Tao Wangling and Xu Huobo said in surprise.

Lin Yanchao did not speak and walked out of the door.

And at this moment, in Wuying Hall.

Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Siwei, Shen Shixing and other ministers have arrived.

In addition, the six subjects of Zhidaou also serve in the hall.

When the little emperor saw a few people, he hurriedly asked, "Several Pavilion Masters, do you know what happened outside the right gate of Chang'an?"

The three of them sent someone to understand the situation just now, but they have not received any reward yet.

So the three of them couldn't answer.

At this moment, the outsider of the palace said: "When the censor of the Wengu Court, Tao Ranqing asked for a visit!"

"Prince!"

The little emperor sat back on the dragon throne, and Tao Ranqing entered the palace and kowtowed to the emperor.

The little emperor said: "Chief Tao, Dengwen Drum Courtyard is located at the right gate of Chang'an. From now on, do you know what happened outside the right gate of Chang'an?"

Tao Ranqing said: "Your Majesty, I came here for this. Outside the right gate of Chang'an, thousands of scholars are knocking on the palace, saying that they want to sue the emperor!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the palace breathed a sigh of relief.

Knocking the palace and complaining to the emperor is the lightest of all situations.

When the young emperor heard this, he was a little angry and said, "So many scholars bowed to the palace and complained, this is something unprecedented in our dynasty. If there is any injustice, can't I go to Dali Temple, the Ministry of Justice, and the Jingzhao Yin Mansion to seek justice? Is it necessary to go to the palace to bow to the palace and give advice? Is it because my ministers cannot use it, or do they think I am young and easy to bully?"

After hearing what the little emperor said, all the officials bowed and said, "Have you angry, Your Majesty."

The little emperor waved his hand and everyone was calm. At this moment, everyone knew that the emperor was in a very bad mood.

Zhang Juzheng asked, "What is the reason? Jingshi Tao hasn't told His Majesty yet."

So Tao Ranqing roughly explained the whole story, and finally handed the paper written by Qu Hengjiang. Several old men looked at the paper with dense fingerprints on the paper and looked at each other.

The little emperor said angrily: "Okay, what I just thought about is the Ministry of Justice. Which official from the Ministry of Justice talks about this matter with me."

The Ministry of Revenue said: "Your Majesty has laws and regulations in the court first. The Ministry of Justice prohibits lectures in private. Scholars speak about politics. The Ministry of Justice is just doing things according to the law. These scholars are really making trouble."

The Ministry of Personnel said: "Your Majesty, I think the Ministry of Justice does things according to the sage's order, but perhaps the means are too extreme, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the scholars. I want to find out the matter and call the officials of the Ministry of Justice to ask, so that they can know the whole story."

The Ministry of Revenue said, "If the scholars are dissatisfied, they can throw themselves into the palace and ask for advice. What is the majesty of the court? This is not a law. Your Majesty, please deal with these scholars more seriously."

The Ministry of Personnel said, "This matter must not be done. Although scholars are not concise in their detention, they will not follow this last path if they have to be desperate. If they are punished severely, they may hurt the scholar's heart."

The Ministry of Personnel continued: "What are the people and what are the scholars? The disaster of the Eastern Han Party and Prison is ahead. I hope Your Majesty will clearly understand it."

Most of the officials also sympathized with scholars. As soon as this statement was made, several ministers in the court could not help but nod.

The little emperor asked Zhang Juzheng: "What do you think Mr. Zhang thinks?"

Zhang Juzheng said: "The reason why scholars bow to the palace is understandable, but if they knock on the palace, they will not be able to give advice. This style cannot be long, and this example cannot be opened. The court reforms take rules and regulations first, and establish trees as trust. If scholars are not in their position, they cannot plan their own policies. Regardless of whether there is any injustice or not, it is wrong to question the court's constitutional order."

After hearing Zhang Juzheng's words, the officials in the hall who sympathized with the scholars did not dare to speak.

Zhang Juzheng looked around and said, "I think Your Majesty can send ministers to the outside of Chang'an Gate, and persuade them to speak out with great righteousness. If the scholars do not listen and refuse to disperse, then they can only punish them severely."

The little emperor heard this and said, "What Mr. Zhang said is my intention."

While speaking, someone said outside: "Liu Yiru, Minister of Justice, and Hong Mingqi, Chief of the Ministry of Justice, please see you!"

The little emperor was not in a good mood when he heard the word "Ministry of Justice", especially the three words "Hong Mingqiu" and thought to himself that he was just the official scolded on the paper? Why did he have the face to see me?

"Prince!"

Liu Yiru, Hong Ming got up and kowtowed to the palace.

Liu Yiru knelt on the ground and replied, "Your Majesty, I am here for the matter of a scholar knocking on the palace."

"I thought it was the same. What does Liu Qing family say?"

Liu Yiru and Taoism: "A scholar knocked on the palace, which was unprecedented in the country's dynasty. When the matter suddenly began, I suspect that someone was inciting him."
