Chapter 122 The sneer of Yongxiang

Wanli's voice was not loud, so only the officials in the front could hear it. The officials behind only saw the emperor speak in the hall, but did not know what the emperor said.

Many officials were leaning forward quietly, trying to hear clearly what the emperor said. After all, they had not heard His Majesty's imperial voice for many years.

In addition, there has been no court meeting in 25 years, and officials do not know the rules of the court meeting, and the order must have gradually become chaotic again.

This scared the officials of the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple who were in charge of order, and quickly arranged personnel to maintain them.

Some officials who did not listen to persuasion were soon warned that if they disrupted order, they would be impeached by the censor for losing their manners in front of the palace.

He was scared and persuaded again, and finally settled the order of the court meeting again.

Sun Shenxing, the Minister of Rites, was worried that the emperor would feel angry, but found that the emperor in the palace seemed to have nothing to do with the chaos of the court, and did not even stop talking.

It doesn't matter to Wanli. If it weren't for the attack in the East Palace, he wouldn't have been too lazy to bring together these officials who were upset when they saw him.

Wanli knew that because he did not attend court for many years, officials talked a lot about him, and almost all thought that he, the emperor, was a foolish monarch.

Wanlai never explained or refuted this. Today he explained it, it was the first and only time.

The answer to his ministers was Wanli's ministers because he was unable to attend court.

What he said was true.

Since the beginning of spring, Wanli felt that his body was not as good as before, and his legs and feet became increasingly weak. Especially after the attack, this situation became serious.

This made Wanli feel that he had to be convinced of his old age, even though he had just made the imperial concubine's belly bigger and added another new member to the old Zhu family.

Once a person realizes that he grows old, he will realize that he dies. Even the emperor cannot escape the cycle of birth, old age, sickness and death.

So, Wanli finally made up his mind to hold a court meeting. He wanted to end the matter completely. He gave himself an explanation and an explanation behind him.

No matter how unpleasant Zhu Changluo was, he was his son after all, the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, and Wanli would not allow anyone to hurt him!

After explaining the reasons why he had not been in court for many years, Wanli slowly walked forward with his lame legs, and then suddenly raised his voice and said to the officials: "The prince is my flesh and blood, the foundation of the Ming Dynasty. If you don't want to, you are crazy. Zhang Cha broke into the Eastern Palace and hurt people. There are many gossips in the outer court. I ask you, who are you waiting for, why are you so many gossips and guessing. Are you trying to get rid of my flesh and blood?"

The officials heard it clearly this time and suddenly became silent.

Under the silence is a floating heart.

Some people are concerned about the main body of the emperor's flesh and blood, some are concerned about the disagreement, and some are concerned about the emperor's word "crazy" for the assassin Zhang Cha...

There are all kinds of ideas.

The Donglin Party member and Minister of Rites Han Du looked at the cabinet minister Fang Congzhe with a side face and found that the Duke of Deqing seemed to have entered a state of meditation. It seemed that the words of His Majesty had never touched the cabinet minister's ears.

"I am going to the court today regardless of my illness. I want to understand the foundation of the country, what I think, and if there are any irresponsible speculations, and if there are many gossips about it, I will definitely not allow it."

After saying that, Wanli turned around and looked at the prince and son standing on the right side of His Highness, and signaled the prince and the school brother to come to him.

Zhu Changluo's heart beat, he pressed his excitement and pulled the school brother toward his father.

Wanli glanced at his son and Changsun, suddenly raised one of his son's hands and shouted to the officials: "This child is extremely filial, I cherish him very much!"

After saying that, he suddenly grabbed the school brother's hand and sang to the officials again: "I cherish Changsun's conciseness, too."

This move made the Donglin officials in the hall, such as Han Yu, Minister of Rites, Sun Shenxing, Censor Ding Yuanjian, and others, all showed joy.

Although the other officials were not as happy as Donglin, most of them were relieved. Even the officials of Zhejiang, Chu and Qi who were not in the face of the Donglin Party were also sincerely happy for the Donggong.

No matter how fierce the party struggles are, we must never dare to disrupt the foundation of the country.

"I have decided, and the madman Zhang Chai will be executed immediately. This case must not involve others."

Wanli just spoke, but heard someone shouting among the ministers below, because they were far away and didn't know what they were calling.

Wanli's face darkened and asked the eunuch to ask what the man was calling.

The person who called out was Liu Guangfu, the censor of Qi Dang. His original words were "The world is admired, the emperor is the most kind, and the eldest son is the most kind and filial." However, because the distance is far, the emperor could not hear it clearly.

The matter was broken by the eunuch who was asking questions.

Liu Guangfu had previously written a letter to abolish temporary shops in the palace. Those temporary shops were the source of income for some eunuchs in the palace, so Liu Guangfu offended some eunuchs in this move.

The eunuch who asked about the question was just a bit of a fucking stake in these shops, so he deliberately said to Wanli: "Old Master, that official said that the emperor would love the crown prince."

Wanli was furious when he heard this, thinking that this was clearly accusing me of being unkind and loving to the prince in the past, so he shouted sternly: "Where is the Jinyiwei? The official is suspicious and alienated my father and son, and immediately took me to the Ministry of Justice!"

Immediately, the Jinyiwei arrested Liu Guangfu and arrested him. Because the incident happened too quickly, the Qi Party officials wanted to explain to Liu Guangfu that they could not plead for him.

Deserve it!

Miao Changqi, who was not far from Liu Guangfu, was gloating. At that time, Liu Guangfu wrote a letter to reveal that Li Sancai had privately robbed the imperial tomb and made Li Sancai dismissed from office.

The Qiu Donglin Party has always remembered this.

Today is retribution.

After Liu Guangfu's incident, Wanli was in a bad mood and turned his face to ask the prince: "What else do you have to say about my treatment?"

"Father, a crazy person like Zhang Cha, just try to do it quickly, there is no need to be implicated!"

Zhu Changluo had any thoughts, because he was afraid that his father would worry that he had other thoughts, so he quickly said respectfully.

After a pause, Zhu Changluo faced the officials and said, "What a dear father and son, but there are many discussions in the outer court. Do you really want to be a minister without a monarch and make me an unfilial son?"

Wanli was satisfied with listening to the audience and the nine ministers of the six ministries: "Did you all hear it?"

Before the important officials could express their opinions, Fang Congzhe said, "The emperor has been clear and the people's hearts have been settled. Please do not take this matter to heart."

This is the default emperor to execute Zhang Cha and end the attack.

Han and the others were a little unwilling to accept it, but when they saw the prince said that, they couldn't argue any more. Perhaps this was the best ending. The emperor's actions today have shown his attitude to the world again, and the foundation of the country will not change.

Wanli did not summon the officials for other matters and ordered them to be dispersed.

Zhang Wenda, a member of the Donglin Party and temporarily appointed the Minister of Justice, looked at Fang Congzhe when he left the hall. It happened that Fang Congzhe was also looking at him and smiled and nodded at him.

Zhang Wenda thought to himself that this mediocre minister only knew how to welcome the emperor, but he did not know that the emperor's actions today had cut off his foundation in the Zhejiang Party, and it would be difficult for the Zhejiang Party to cause trouble in the court in the future.
