130 Presiding over the overall situation (two in one)(1/2)
"There is such a thing? Can the Grand Secretary go to the Dutch school for punishment?"
"What kind of slanderous minister dares to humiliate the literati so much? Did the literati in the world lose their character?"
"If this matter is true, and the treacherous ministers deceive the king and do not let the emperor go, we, as literati, must submit a memorial to the emperor and give justice to the Grand Secretary!"
The students who took the exam at Yingtian Guild Hall have been mobilized, but this matter is a bit too exaggerated, which makes people feel a little unbelievable.
"I am a tribute student of the Imperial College, and I am willing to guarantee the truth of everything I say with my life. If you don't believe it, all the students can go to the Imperial College to find out the truth, and the Grand Secretary will be punished in the snow!"
After saying that, the Imperial College tribute student left two lines of tears. For him, the Imperial College tribute wine was not nominal, but a real teacher.
"Yichen, can this happen in the capital?"
Li Tingxiu also asked Chen Yichen with a look of surprise, the last time he went to Beijing for the exam was more than ten years ago. Could it be that the capital had become so popular that he could even insult the Imperial College priests?
Facing the teacher's inquiry, Chen Yichen thought wildly in his mind. As long as this kind of big thing happened in the history of the Ming Dynasty, he would definitely have an impression of it.
Chen Yichen soon remembered the records in history books, that is, during the Zhengtong dynasty, Li Shimian, the Imperial College Priest, submitted a memorial to the court, requesting the reconstruction of the Imperial College, so the Ming Yingzong sent Wang Zhen to inspect the situation.
At this time, Wang Zhen was already in power, and officials from all sides flattered him. He tried his best to receive him everywhere. As a result, when he arrived at Li Shimian's Imperial College, he only treated him according to normal standards and did not deliberately cater to him.
This incident made Wang Zhen feel embarrassed and thought that Li Shimian despised him. So he held a grudge and tried every means to collect evidence of Li Shimian's crimes, but he did not expect to find nothing.
The fact that there was no need to be convicted was made, and Yue Fei of the Song Dynasty was already famous, so Wang Zhen naturally couldn't copy it. He could only force him to gather a branch of Li Shimian who had broken the Imperial College, and was suspected of cutting down and stealing official woods, and forcibly convicted him.
In order to serve as a warning to You, he completely humiliated Li Shimian and directly sentenced him to the prison of the Du school and was established three days before the Imperial College.
Let the students of the Imperial College take a good look at how embarrassed Li Shimian became a sinner!
As a result, Wang Zhen never expected that the crime he had convicted was too outrageous, and instead made the students of the Imperial College and the literati of the capital unite and went to the palace gate to complain about the injustice, and even jointly submitted a memorial to the emperor, which completely caused a big deal.
But Chen Yichen remembers correctly, historical books record that Li Shimian was framed by Wang Zhen in the heat of summer, and this time was cold winter, and time was somewhat inconsistent.
Could it be that the historical trajectory has deviated again because of its own appearance?
Just when Shen Yichen was puzzled, the students who were taking the exam in the lobby of the guild were already out of the door and were preparing to go to the Imperial College to support Li Shimian.
"Yichen, let's follow you too."
Li Tingxiu looked serious at this time, and the dignity of his master's teachings was one of his life creeds.
The Imperial College Priest is the literati master. No matter what the reason or crime is, a scholar can be killed, not humiliated, and must not trample on the identity of the master!
"Yes, sir."
Chen Yichen also wanted to figure out what was going on, so he nodded and followed Li Tingxiu.
At this time, there were already crowds of people outside. Not only were the Yingtian Guild Hall students preparing to support the students, but the Shandong, Huguang, Jiangxi, Fujian and other places also came out in full swing.
If nothing unexpected happens, the Imperial College students have notified all the guild halls in the thirteen provinces of the two capitals and thirteen provinces to support them.
In front of the Imperial College of the Imperial College, the three priests, Li Shimian, Si Ye Zhao Wan, and the three of them were standing here wearing shackles. The snowflakes that kept falling in the sky made their hair and beards white, covering a layer of white snow.
Beside Li Shimian and others, there were a circle of military service that maintained order, and there were angry scholars on the outside, constantly colliding with military service personnel, and many people still had tears in their eyes.
Further away, there were a group of Jinyiwei standing, watching coldly what was happening in front of the Imperial College.
When Chen Yichen and others came to the Imperial College, they were already dark, and there were at least no less than a thousand people. At the same time, slogans such as "release people", "false things", "traitors in power" kept ringing in their ears.
Li Tingxiu and Chen Yichen wanted to stand beside each other and see what was going on at the scene first. However, they were constantly pushed and pushed forward by the crowd, and eventually became one of the supporters.
Being mixed in the crowded crowd, I couldn't see the situation clearly. There was no way, Chen Yichen had to hold a scholar beside him who was flushed because of his excitement and asked, "Do you dare to ask me, who did the Grand Secretary offend and suffer such punishment?"
"Who else can be so unscrupulous than the autocracy of the eunuchs?"
The scholar did not name the name, but the word "eunuch" is enough to indicate the other party's identity.
It seems that history has not deviated from much trajectory, and it is indeed related to Wang Zhen.
Chen Yichen felt glad that history had not shifted too much, but after hearing the word "eunuch" by the Yingtian Guild Hall, the sons who came by behind him, showed a solemn expression on their faces, and they were no longer as indignant as before.
You should know that even if you are in Yingtian Mansion, Wang Zhen’s reputation is well-known. Everyone knows what consequences will be if offended him.
As a student who went to Beijing to take the exam, I studied hard for many years for the Spring Examination. Is it worth it if I lose the opportunity because I am involved in this storm?
However, some impulsive and passionate scholars looked at Li Shimian and others wearing shackles in the distance, and could not help but shouted indignation: "We are so afraid of the eunuch, and we are watching the Dasi clan be humiliated?"
Faced with the questioning, the red-faced scholar explained angrily: "This is the emperor's order that the emperor was blinded by the eunuchs. Who dares to disobey!"
That's right, even if Wang Zhen wants to deal with the civil servants of the Imperial College in this way, it would be impossible to do without an imperial edict.
As for whether the Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen's original intention was like this, or how much truth he knew, it was probably only God who knew, anyway, the imperial edict had been issued.
When they heard that the emperor's order was like this, these passionate and impulsive scholars were instantly stunned.
The eunuchs can still fight, but can the emperor's order still resist the order?
However, this silence did not last long, and soon the scholars from other guilds arrived one after another. As the number of people increased, the order on the scene began to become more and more chaotic.
The military servicemen who could barely maintain order before began to be unable to withstand the impact of the scholars, and the defense line was constantly compressed.
"Sir, be careful."
Faced with this crowded and chaotic crowd, Chen Yichen firmly protected Li Tingxiu. After all, Mr. was nearly forty years old, and he was not young in ancient times like the Ming Dynasty.
"Yichen, please pay more attention!"
Li Tingxiu also noticed that the situation was developing in an out-of-control direction. Even with the blessing of the imperial edict, the students of the Imperial College did not dare to act rashly.
Now, with the continuous reinforcements of various candidates, many people do not know that this is a punishment for the emperor's destiny. Even if they know that it is impossible to keep a clear mind and calm down in such a general environment.
The Jinyiwei, who was watching coldly in the distance, saw this situation, and one of the Qianhu said to the leader standing at the center: "Sir Tongzhi, there are more and more scholars coming from all over the place. The scene is chaotic and may be suspected of robbers. Should we take action to suppress it?"
The leader, known as Tongzhi, is the current commander of the Jinyiwei, Lu Zhong. He was ordered by Ma Shun, commander of the Jinyiwei, to come to the gate of the Imperial College to supervise and serve his sentence, but he did not expect that the matter would be so big that it was vaguely suspected of being out of control.
"Okay, you can bring people over to suppress them, and you can even catch a few scholars who are in trouble. Today's affairs are related to the face of Eunuch Wang, and you must do it cleanly and beautifully, otherwise no one of us can afford it if we blame it."
"I understand!"
After receiving the order, the Qianhu immediately called the Jinyiwei who was watching and headed towards the location of Li Shimian and others.
If this group of scholars really snatched away the person today, Wang Zhen would blame him, and someone would probably lose his life!
Chen Yichen on the other side had already squeezed to the forefront with Li Tingxiu, only one step away from Li Shimian and others who were showing their shackles.
The more you are in this position, the more intense the conflict with the guards' military service, and both sides have been crowded and constantly hit. Some of the weak scholars have been flushed and their faces are unsteady.
"Sir, I will definitely not let you suffer such insults!"
"The world is bright and the sun and the moon are bright, how can you let the night jump and jump!"
"Dear colleagues, work harder and you can save the sir!"
The scene of "Victory" in front of us has stimulated many scholars, who shouted and continued to rush forward.
But at the forefront, there is no room for the place where the army is colliding with the military service. The people behind are surging forward and crowded, causing people to fall down and then be stepped on by the person who is repaired and unable to get up.
Stampage accident!
These four words popped up in his mind, which instantly scared Chen Yichen and let out a cold sweat. He, from later generations, understood the danger of stampede accidents more than people of this era. Once the chaos continues to intensify, the consequences may be "severe casualties"!
And in the face of such man-made disasters, personal power cannot guarantee the safety of himself and his husband at all, and it is necessary to prevent such a thing from happening!
Not only Chen Yichen, but Li Shimian in the crowd also found that some scholars fell down and couldn't get up.
The ancients may not understand the professional term "stampage accident", but they are not ignorant of the harm caused.
"The fish above penetrates the fish, and the ants below gathers." This is a description of the harm of crowded people in ancient stampede accidents.
"Students calm down and don't crowd forward anymore!"
"I am already a decayed person. It's not worth it for all the young men in the court!"
Li Shimian was hoarse, but because he was old and had been frozen in the snow for most of the day, he was almost inauspicious and had no effect of dissuasion.
Seeing this scene, looking at the staggering gentleman Li Tingxiu beside him, Chen Yichen understood that he was the only one who could come out!
"I am the son of Chenggong, Shuntian Xinke Jie Yuan Chen Yichen. I hope you will calm down for the time being. I will definitely save the Grand Secretary from the water and fire!"
With a shout, the scholars standing around Shen Yichen looked at him after hearing this and stopped their continued collision.
The chaos in many group events is that no leader comes forward. The identity of Xinke Jie Yuanlang and the son of Duke Cheng Guo is enough to make Chen Yichen look forward to it and suppress the situation that is already out of control at this time.
To be honest, Chen Yichen really doesn't want to mention the son of the Duke of Cheng, but he also understands that the matter is urgent and no identity can be better than the Duke of Cheng.
However, Chen Yichen's shout could only affect a small area around him, and the chaos in other places was still continuing.
"It's spread that the new Ke Jie Yuanlang presided over the overall situation and calmed down the scholars!"
Chen Yichen understood that it would be impossible to affect the thousands of people present by just shouting at the top of his voice. Only by letting others spread together can the situation stabilize!
Some knowledgeable people around them also realized that the situation was in crisis. If the fallen literati still couldn't get up, they might cause a disaster.
"Xinke Jie Yuanlang Chen Yichen has come forward, everyone should be calm!"
"All the students will stop for the time being, Chen Jieyuan will take charge of the overall situation!"
"The identity of Chen Jieyuan as the son of Duke Cheng of the Kingdom of Cheng will definitely prove the innocence of the Grand Secretary!"
The shouts began to spread among the sub-cultural scholars, and the restless scene before calmed down slightly. Some scholars who were squeezed to the scene finally had the chance to breathe and were helped up from the ground by others.
At the same time, a team of Jinyiwei rushed into the crowd, but in addition to maintaining order and ensuring that Li Shimian and others serve their sentences, they are also preparing to take down a few scholars who are leading troublemakers to establish their authority!
Chen Yichen chose to come forward, which was equivalent to standing opposite to the Jinyiwei!
To be continued...
