The cabinet had already learned about Li Mengyang's kneeling outside the Taimiao and cried loudly, and also realized the seriousness of the problem.

The chief minister Ma Wensheng also learned about Li Mengyang's twenty-four crimes that impeached him. He now immediately found Zhu Houzhao: "Your Majesty, please stop me from my post. This is my resignation memorial."

According to the rules, when an official is impeached, he must voluntarily stop resigning and defend himself. Ma Wensheng has always been abiding by the rules, so he naturally does not want to break them. Although he does not want to resign in his heart, and he does not want to let the reform of the administration that he has put into countless hard work cannot be completed by himself, he still has to abide by this rule.

"No!"

Without thinking, Zhu Houzhao threw back the memorial handed by Ma Wensheng and let out a long sigh: "These people are really not afraid of life and death. I think this test has really caught their pain. It's better to have another life. Compared to letting the Ming Dynasty perish and tens of millions of people be damaged, what is this? Liu Jin!"

As soon as Zhu Houzhao called Liu Jin, Ma Wensheng realized that Zhu Houzhao was afraid of killing people again. He was a civil servant and still felt a little reluctant to be of people of the same class and did not want to increase the conflict. He advised:

"Your Majesty, be at ease! Li Mengyang is not dissatisfied with Your Majesty, nor is he plotting against you. He is just dissatisfied with the law of the exam and has a slight remark to me. I ask Your Majesty to give Li Mengyang a chance and ask me to persuade him. If Li Mengyang can wake up, I hope Your Majesty will spare his death sentence to avoid another increase in the reform!"

"I have given him a chance, and let Liu Jin send someone to warn him once," Zhu Houzhao said again, "Ma Wensheng, Ma Wensheng, do you know who Li Mengyang scolded you to? You are still pleading for him. Are you really not angry or really selfless?"

"Your Majesty, I just think that if I can reform the new policy without having to pay for human life, I will not kill people. After all, everyone is the minister of the Ming Dynasty, and all the ministers of Your Majesty." As Ma Wensheng said, he simply knelt down: "Your Majesty! I risk my life to ask Your Majesty to let me persuade him once!"

"Well, I'll give him another chance," Zhu Houzhao said.

"I thank Your Majesty!" Ma Wensheng said, then turned around and left the Forbidden City and headed towards the Taimiao.

After Ma Wensheng left, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but sigh: "Ma Wensheng is too kind to a woman!"

...

Ma Wensheng came to Li Mengyang, and at this time Li Mengyang still burst into tears and said, "Last Emperor! Ma Junzhou is in chaos and the eunuch party, and his crime is more serious than that of Liu Jian!"

"Li Mengyang, why bother you? Even if I provoke you hate, I have never killed the monarch. How can anyone say crazy and perverse words!"

Ma Wensheng persuaded him with heartache like an old man, and patted Li Mengyang on the shoulder.

Li Mengyang didn't expect that the chief assistant Ma Wensheng would come in person and persuade him personally, and he felt even more satisfied. He thought that his fuss was indeed effective. He, Ma Wensheng, was really cowardly! He was really cowardly! Haha! As long as Ma Wensheng was cowardly, he was not far from the emperor's cowardly, and the new test method could not be implemented. Maybe he could save his life and get a direct name.

"Go away! I, Li Mengyang, will never be in three steps with the treacherous ministers and dog thieves! He, Liu Jian and others, killed a king, but you, Ma Wensheng, are trying to harm my foundation for the Ming Dynasty forever!"

Therefore, Li Mengyang directly scolded him without giving Ma Wensheng any face.

Ma Wensheng is still relatively lenient and only explained patiently:

"What is this harmful to the foundation of the Ming Dynasty forever? It happened that it was for the foundation of the Ming Dynasty forever. This method of examination was required. You, Li Mengyang, have never been a stupid person, and he dared to advise him. But you should also be clear about what the government in this officialdom is like now! Slack and mediocre officials are flooding the court, and the tax arrears of the court are becoming more and more serious. You even started to compete for extravagance and wealth. Whoever makes more money and is better than the official, and the trend of scholars is becoming more and more degenerate. Shouldn't you change it? How to govern the country and the people in the future if you don't change it!"

"You are destroying my foundation for the Ming Dynasty forever. You not only destroy the foundation for the Ming Dynasty forever, but you also destroy my foundation. I had a direct name in the court. The late emperor once intended to make me the Minister of Revenue and then transferred to the Ministry of Rites before entering the cabinet. However, you, Ma Wensheng, became the Minister of Personnel, but stopped me from making progress. Now you are even more successful in exams, turning me from the Ministry of Revenue to the Head of the Ministry of Revenue, and you have been criticized as a useless official by you. The reputation I have accumulated with hard work is said to be a fame! Fortunately, I wrote a birthday paper for you back then, and you are a traitor! I am a traitor! I am a!"

Li Mengyang spitted Ma Wensheng's face with a mouthful of saliva!

No matter how much Ma Wensheng is, he is the prime minister of the dynasty. Now being spit on the spot is a great humiliation!

Ma Wensheng didn't expect Li Mengyang to spit on him directly. He was also a little angry and felt very sad: "Is this the real reason for you to impeach me?"

Li Mengyang didn't seem to want to hide it: "That's right! But I, Li Mengyang, still said the same thing, you, Ma Wensheng, are traitors! A big traitor! Not only will I scold you like this, but the officials and gentry in the entire court and the country will scold you like this! Even more than just now, they will scold you like this for ten years, one hundred years, or even a thousand years! As long as the world is still the world of my scholars, the scholars in the world will still scold you, kill the ten clans of civil officials who kill the monarch, kill the eunuchs, and even collude with eunuchs. These will become their basis for scolding you!"

"And although I, Li Mengyang, will be killed by you now, so what? Someone will restore my reputation in a hundred years. Later, the Emperor will give me the name of loyalty and wiseness, and even honor my wife!"

"Ma Wensheng, I know you are for the common people in the world, you are really for the country and the country of Ming Dynasty, but so what? You are not for the gentry, you are even against all the gentry in the world now, so I will become a loyal minister, you will become a treacherous minister, and those common people are just a must-have. They will not stand up and make decisions for you, and they don't even know you at all! Hahaha! But you will be scolded by scholars, and even the people of your family will be scolded! Those who have become scholars among the common people will be scolded! Hahaha! Ma Wensheng, do you still have to reform the new policy?"

As Li Mengyang said this, he laughed at Ma Wensheng, as if he was looking at a fool.

Ma Wensheng's face was stimulated by Li Mengyang's swelling and red. He was angry just now, he was angry now, and even felt a little heartbroken. He didn't know how to refute Li Mengyang, and only pointed at Li Mengyang: "You! You! You!"

Li Mengyang still looked at Ma Wensheng with a hint of smug sneer: "Are you very angry? You can't refute it, a treacherous minister! You Ma Wensheng are a treacherous minister!"

Bang!
Chapter completed!
