Chapter 185: Innocent Killing and Prisoners (1)
During the court meeting, the ministers could not move their positions at will. Only the ministers close to the scroll could see the contents on the picture. After obtaining permission from Emperor Tianqi, the two Jinyiwei who spread the scroll held the scroll and circled the civil and military ministers, so that everyone could see the contents drawn above.
The whole palace was silent, and all the ministers were stunned by this tragic scene. The civil and military ministers had already learned about the situation in Cangzhou through public or private channels, but that was reposted through language and text, and were far less impactful than intuitive pictures.
Many ministers nodded secretly, and everyone said that Zhu Youcheng was cruel and easy to kill, but I think he was good at killing. If I were in Cangzhou, when I saw this scene, I would have to start killing. Only by eliminating these thugs who harmed the people and did not do anything for production can the people of Ming Dynasty have a good life.
The censors were also quite touched when they looked at the scroll, but when they saw the expressions on the faces of other officials, they were shocked. They knew that many officials were pulled to Zhu Youcheng's side again, and the situation suddenly reversed, and they couldn't help but be alert. To be honest, if Sun Zhixie was not the censor, his experience made his colleagues feel sad, and they felt that the iron rule of the Ming Dynasty's failure to kill the censor was destroyed by Zhu Youcheng, and they would not have to argue with him.
A censor who was once a student of Zhu Youcheng jumped out and said, "Prince Xin, this painting is indeed very realistic, and we also express deep sympathy for the sufferings suffered by the people of Cangzhou. But the riots are like a mad dog. If a dog bites a person, can we still bite back? The Ming Dynasty is a country of etiquette, how can we do the killing of prisoners? If this matter is not handled, the country will not be... "
The censor has broken up with Zhu Youcheng. If Zhu Youcheng is not defeated, his fate will be very sad, so he jumped out first to fire at Zhu Youcheng.
Zhu Youcheng took a step forward and angrily scolded: "The mad dog bites people. Our countermeasure is to pick up a wooden stick and eliminate harm for the people. If you let it go, other people will be harmed by the mad dog. I don't oppose students giving me opinions, or even impeach me, but I feel ashamed of being your teacher like you who is unclear and who is inseparable from right and wrong, and I am ashamed of being your teacher!"
"Emperor," Zhu Youcheng turned to Emperor Tianqi. He said, "I beg your Majesty to allow me to clear the door and drive this person who is rigid in his mind, has no people and has no court in his heart."
The censor Wuming became angry and said, "You are ashamed of being my teacher, and I am ashamed of being your students. Now we will cut off our robes and make righteousness, and from now on the road to the sky, each of us will go one side."
Emperor Tianqi was a little confused and asked, "Zhu Youcheng, how do you expel people from the sect? Was it to make him forget the knowledge he learned in the Ming Administrative Academy? I know that learning is easy, but forgetting the difficulty."
"Your Majesty, this person has said just now that I am disgusted by my student, so I disgusted with his academic evaluation. Very well, as a professional at the Daming Administrative Academy, I want to take back his graduation certificate and delete all his files. I do not admit that he had studied at the Daming Administrative Academy."
The court was in an uproar, and Zhu Youcheng's move was ruthless. Emperor Tianqi had publicly claimed that under the same conditions, the graduates of the Ming Administrative Academy and the Ming Military Academy were given priority. In addition to cultivating the admitted Jinshi, the two major colleges of the Ming Dynasty also adhered to the principle of teaching without distinction, and selected many officials and clerks at all levels of the Ming Dynasty to study. There were a large number of graduates every year. Moreover, Zhu Youcheng also played the power and sent graduation certificates to his confidants. For example, thirty-one thousand households under his command. For example, Wu Huping, Chen Guoqi, Ke Qingqing and others - some thousand households were even even Daming.
I don’t know where the military academy door opened - I all got a graduation certificate with the seal of Emperor Tianqi. Also, Ruan Dacheng, Xu Siyue and others who later defected to Zhu Youcheng, but after going around the academy, they also got a graduation certificate with the administrative academy, which was also covered with the seal of Emperor Tianqi. The censor lost the golden signboard of the graduate of the administrative academy of Ming Dynasty. The career of the government basically ended here. Perhaps the court would not remove him from his post, but if you want to go to another level and go further, you have to wait until these certificated people are hired first - hehe, then you have to wait.
Emperor Tianqi nodded and asked, "Where is the Minister of Personnel?"
The Minister of Personnel has listed: "The old minister is here."
"Have you heard Lord Zhu clearly? Since this censor is no longer a graduate of the Ming Administrative Academy, then from now on, he will no longer receive a higher salary."
All the ministers despised the emperor in their hearts. They were so stingy that they couldn't even bear half the salary. The censor felt bitter in his mouth. The censors were stunned by the Qingshui yamen, not to mention black income, even gray income, all of which were pointing to this half salary to improve their lives.
Another censor who had studied at the Ming Administrative Academy was worried and worried that he would be liquidated by Lord Si Ye. So although he was indignant now, he did not dare to be the first to be a leader.
However, the censor who had not studied at the Ming Administrative Academy was self-reliant and was not afraid of being fired by Lord Zhu. Another one stood up and said: "Killing prisoners is not good. Bai Qi of the Qin Dynasty killed 400,000 prisoners of war in Zhao, and he would not die well; Ran Min of the Southern and Northern Dynasties killed Hu people, but he had no complete corpses; King Kaiping of this dynasty Chang Yuchun loved killing prisoners and died young. Lord Zhu was so cruel and easy to kill, so he was not afraid of the cycle of heaven. Are he unhappy in retribution?"
"Without Bai Qi killing 400,000 people from Zhao, Qin could not unify the world; without the King of Wudao (Ran Min was posthumously named King of Wudao after his death), the north had become the horse farm of the Hu people; without King Kaiping to create a peaceful and prosperous era for us, can you and I still stand here and talk about it? Speaking of retribution, I am retribution, it is the retribution of all the evil people who infringed on the interests of the people of the Ming Dynasty! Jiannu of Liaodong and Tartars in the north, you tremble, because your retribution has come, and I will settle your current evil deeds and previous bad deeds with you! Hahahaha..."
Zhu Youcheng laughed loudly, and the tiles of the Huangji Palace seemed to be trembling. King Xin walked forward, and the two of them held each other tightly with their right hands, raised their heads high, and said in unison: "We are retribution!"
The hall was silent, and everyone was stunned by Zhu Youcheng's words. It was not that they had heard bold words, but this was the first time in the Huangji Palace with such strong murderous intent.
"Papapapapapapa", applause rang out on the jade steps, which was shot by Emperor Tianqi. He said loudly: "Brother Cheng, Brother Jian, I believe in you!"
What hatred in the censors' hearts? Why did Zhu Youcheng make the limelight again? What should I do if I take it back and give up? It is impossible. What they did have been published in the newspaper and their face has been lost. If they defeat him, they may not be able to recover; but if they do not defeat him, they may not be able to recover.
Another censor stood up and said loudly: "Mr. Zhu, you kill the Hu people, and the officials raised their hands to agree, but this time you are not killing Hu people, but Han people." (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better and faster!
