Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 247

In the court, no one dared to be careless. Many people knew what happened during this time, and many people also knew what happened to Chun Wei this time.Perhaps this period of time is truly eventful.

Zhu Yunying got up early, washed up and had some breakfast, and then she was ready to go to court.And when they arrived at Fengtian Hall, Zhu Yunying was also taken aback for a moment, it seemed that Lao Zhu really couldn't be idle, and he came a little earlier than expected.

"Did you have breakfast?" Zhu Yunying came to Lao Zhu's side and asked quickly.

Old Zhu patted Zhu Yunying on the shoulder, quite relieved, "We ate, we don't sleep much, and we don't eat much when we are older."

"I don't eat much, but I still have to eat enough." Zhu Yunying said to Lao Zhu, "After the court today, I will ask Miaoqing to prepare, and the dinner will be served at my side. When the time comes, Grandpa will bring Yin'er is taken away, and I have been busy dismantling the house for the past two days."

Old Zhu shook his head with a smile, showing off a little, "That's not going to happen, we have agreed with the prince. Today we will take the prince to have dinner with his aunt and grandmother, so you can have dinner with the queen."

Well, Zhu Yunying has already become numb for not kissing his son.As for the fact that the father doesn't know that some of his son's activities are also normal, the main reason is that Xiao Zhu is too lively and popular, and he can't control that little guy at all.Furthermore, that kid's activity schedule may change at any time, and most people can't bear it at all.

Wang Chengen and Shuangquan were cautious, the emperor and the Supreme Emperor were chatting, but according to the time, it was time to go to court.

Of course, Lao Zhu and Xiao Zhu are very clear about this matter, but they are still chatting about family matters.Consciously go to the court later, and let the civil and military officials in the court hang out for a while.

The civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty may have long been accustomed to the emperor's diligent administration, and the emperor is more workaholic than them.So now the emperor has not appeared in the court for a long time, which is a bit abnormal.

After all, even if an emperor does not appear in the court occasionally, it is because of illness.What's more, even if the emperor does not come at that time, the prince or grandson will come.Furthermore, even if there are really special circumstances, we will let you know in advance.

The task of the supervisory censor at this time is to look at his colleagues. If anyone dares to discuss and whisper in private, then basically they will be recorded.

Just when many people were puzzled, they suddenly saw a burly old man walking up the imperial steps.Behind him was a heroic young man in uniform.

The Hongwu Emperor of the Ming Dynasty appeared in the court again, which made many people tremble with fear for a moment.

Old Zhu sat straight on the dragon chair, and then said to Zhu Yunying, "Emperor, just stand."

Zhu Yunying was taken aback for a moment, but she didn't feel ashamed or anything.Just like before, just treat him as the grandson of the emperor now.

Although Zhu Yunying didn't seem to care at all at this time, she felt that these things couldn't be more normal.But for the civil and military officials, it seemed that they were a little frightened at this time, and they felt that things seemed to have exceeded their expectations.

The reason is actually very simple. Naturally, it is because their Supreme Emperor seems to be very angry. This is directly embarrassing the new emperor in the court.Letting the emperor stand up and deal with the government affairs is obviously a small punishment and a big commandment, which is obviously a beating.

Even the new emperor wants to beat, this is no small matter.You must know how much the Supreme Emperor favored the 'Xianhuang' before, and today, he usually does everything possible to maintain their majesty.But now it's a good thing, and it's not unusual to say it directly in the court.

Old Zhu didn't care so much, he sat on the dragon chair and said directly, "We have abdicated, and we wanted to live a more peaceful life and entertain our grandchildren. What about you? of!"

Without further ado, Zhu Yunying knelt down immediately, and all the civil and military officials in the court knelt down one by one at this time.

Lao Zhu looked at the civil and military officials in the hall, and asked with a cold snort, "Ru Yu, you are the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and the chief examiner of this subject. Heavenly officials of the Ministry of Officials, you should also recruit talents for the country! Let's ask You, since you are an examiner, do you dare to say that this course is fair and there are no such dirty things?!"

Ru Yu immediately raised her body slightly, and said in a decisive tone, "Back to the Supreme Emperor, I am the master of the examination, conscientious and cautious! I can assure you that Chun Wei did not corrupt the law this time!"

Old Zhu was noncommittal, and immediately asked, "Then our two good sons-in-law, how dare you say such a thing?!"

Liu Chuan and Mei Yin replied immediately, they could also be said to have enough confidence.Because they really didn't do something corrupt, because they had no reason to lose something, and that's not their character.

There are quite a few concubines in Ming Dynasty, but now there are only four really special consorts.

Lao Zhu's two prostitutes are special in themselves, and they brought up Jinshang, so their feelings are naturally deep.Liu Cha and Mei Yin naturally knew what to do and what not to do.As for the other two, one is Mu Chun and the other is Feng Cheng. They are son-in-laws of Jinshang's younger sister.

There is no need for these sons-in-law to corrupt the law. After all, there are many princes and princesses in Ming Dynasty, but there are only a few special ones.Some people just do nothing, and their status is extremely detached.For example, His Royal Highness King Wu who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, who dares to underestimate his younger brother?

Lao Zhu glanced at the civil and military officials who were still kneeling in the hall, and then said, "The other lovers are flat, and you three are kneeling."

The chief examiner and deputy examiner in charge of Chunwei knelt down, and it seemed that this matter still had some lumps in the Taishanghuang's heart.

It's just that Zhu Yunying was in a hurry. Old Zhu didn't disrupt Zhu Yunying's plan, because he had already told Lao Zhu about these things, and Lao Zhu also knew some of Zhu Yunying's thoughts.Lao Zhu's current behavior is obviously here to kill people, and Lao Zhu is here to be a bad guy.

Old Zhu looked at Zhu Yunying with a straight face and asked, "Emperor, let me ask you, who is responsible for the review?"

Zhu Yunying had a bitter face, but she could only answer, "Zhuo Jing."

Old Zhu nodded slightly, and asked directly, "Zhuo Jing, let me ask you, have you ever gone for a review?"

Zhuo Jing immediately went out of class and knelt down, holding up a booklet and knelt down amidst the attention of all the civil and military personnel, "Go back to the Supreme Emperor, I have received the grace of the minister to review this spring, and the minister and others have reviewed 180 papers. Judge the good and bad, sort them, and compare them with each other. There were not many mistakes when Chunwei released the list this time."

This time, there were many people in the court hall who were whispering or looking at each other.There was such a big disturbance in Chunwei this time, and many people thought that there might be something really happening in Chunwei this time.

For example, leaking questions, or accepting money, or regional discrimination, etc.This is very possible, otherwise the situation of the northern scholars would not be so miserable, or it would not make those northern scholars filled with righteous indignation and shouting for injustice.

Lao Zhu knew this well, but asked again, "Oh? Really?!"

Zhuo Jing quickly assured, "The ministers dare not hide their secrets, and the ministers are willing to bear it."

Not only Zhuo Jing stood up, Zhang Xin and others did stand up at this time.All of them can guarantee that they are not corrupt and perverting the law, and they really dare not commit any crimes at this time, after all, almost everyone is watching.

Shuangquan took the notebook and handed it to Lao Zhu respectfully.

Old Zhu looked carefully at the booklet, and then asked, "The Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of Officials, have you ever sent someone to follow?"

Zhu Yunying quickly replied, "Sun Chen dare not be careless. People from the Procuratorate and Yushitai will follow to ensure justice."

Old Zhu said directly, "That's good. Selecting scholars in the imperial court is a major event, and the hearts of scholars in the world should not be chilled. Did the various ministries find out that the imperial examinations were unfair?"

Seeing that no one answered, Lao Zhu was actually very satisfied.Because this shows that there is nothing wrong with the imperial examination this time, and this will not disrupt some plans of his grandson's first imperial examination to obtain a scholar after he ascended the throne.

Looking carefully at the excerpts, Lao Zhu suddenly asked, "Since there is no injustice in the spring this time, why are the government and the people turning against the sky? Those officials are shouting grievances along the street and delivering famous posters everywhere. What's going on?"

Who dares to answer this, most likely because they feel unconvinced when they fail, or they are noisy.However, it is also possible that you simply feel that you have encountered injustice.After all, northern scholars feel that it is normal to be wronged. Who made them rank low and have few places.

Lao Zhu is still very calm, and he really knows a lot about many things. He doesn't think he needs to say anything more.

But Lao Zhu continued to look at Zhezi, and asked again, "I'm surprised, since there is no unfair treatment by the court this time, why do those scholars have so many grievances? Looking at the government and the public now, it seems that there are many doubts about the court. "

That's when someone has something to say, because these things don't seem too hard to answer.

"Returning to Your Majesty, most of the northern scholars think that there are too few northern scholars on the list."

"This time, one hundred and two scholars were selected, and there were only 30 scholars in the north."

Many people found the answer, and felt that there was probably something wrong with the court for such a big disturbance this time.There are 90 scholars in the south and only [-] scholars in the north.The gap is really too big, so it is normal for northern scholars to be mentally unbalanced at this time.

Lao Zhu was just listening quietly, while many civil and military ministers were also eloquent at this time, expressing some of their own opinions.Those views still sound reasonable, there is no reason for the number of northern scholars to be so small.

Old Zhu, who was just listening, suddenly threw down the booklet and shouted sharply, "Bastard! Our Daming court is full of wine bags and rice bags?!"

Faced with the sudden fury of the Supreme Emperor, all civil and military officials immediately fell to their knees, and it would be better to convict quickly.The oppression given to them by the Supreme Emperor cannot be eliminated in a short while.
