Da Ming Tai Shi

Chapter 53
What is the imperial decree.

Written explanations are the carrier of military orders, political appointments, and state policies issued by the emperor. They are the display and symbol of imperial power in ancient China, and they are sacred and majestic.

In layman's terms, the imperial decree is just a piece of paper, and its value depends on the emperor who issued it.

If the emperor has no power, the imperial edict is meaningless. If the emperor is like Qin Huang Hanwu, then the imperial edict is different.

Its majesty, its sanctity, and its credibility are beyond doubt.

At this moment, when Zhu Yuanzhang used this to question Chen Yunfu, he undoubtedly put a ghost knife on the latter's neck.

What do you take the edict for?What do you take me, Zhu Yuanzhang, for!
If, for your sake of your favor, the imperial decree of the world is issued that the person who is going to be killed should not be killed, no one will take the imperial decree seriously in the future.

At a young age, the country is untrustworthy; at an older age, the emperor is disqualified!

This kind of thing must be recorded in the history books.

On the golden chair, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Chen Yunfu who had started to tremble, feeling a little unbearable.

I just planned to test Chen Yunfu and give this kid a little bit of sharpening. At present, it seems that I have used too much force.

After all, he was still a child, and this kind of murder was a bit difficult for a child.

But Jinkou Yuyan, it is even more inappropriate to accept what he said now, and Chen Yunfu has to find the steps himself.

The sweat on the forehead of Chen Yunfu, who was kneeling below, had already pooled in a puddle on the ground, and his heart was already suffering to the extreme.

It's over, it's over.

What should I do if I am annoyed by Emperor Hongwu in person? I am waiting online. I am in a hurry.

Zhu Biao glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang above him, thought for a while, and planned to get up to excuse Chen Yunfu, but accidentally saw Baoxiang behind Zhu Yuanzhang making a gesture, which was telling him to wait a little longer, so he had no choice but to sit still .

But he was thinking in his heart, is it possible that the father still expects Chen Yunfu to break this situation by himself?

Can this situation be broken? Yes, Chen Yunfu himself has a solution now.

But Chen Yunfu couldn't use this method.

That is begging for mercy, self-repentance, and confession. While praising Zhu Yuanzhang, he expressed his ignorance at the same time, asking himself to close the door and think about his mistakes, and study honestly.

Then Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang revealed the matter in his heart, and everyone praised His Majesty the emperor for a long time, and the matter was over.

After a few months, when the case of Guo Huan and Yang Ruxian was over and Zhu Yuanzhang was happy, Chen Yunfu would be reactivated, and everyone was happy.

It's just that Weng Junbo's three clans, old and young, deserve to die or die.

Yes, until this moment, Chen Yunfu was still thinking about how to save Weng Junbo's family.

It's ridiculous, isn't it?

Chen Yunfu and Weng Junbo didn't have any friendship, so He Zhiru bet on himself in order to save his family.

Not at all.

Chen Yunfu has been a man for two generations, and the education he received has shaped his human nature, personality, and outlook on life.

If you are not credulous, you will live up to me.

Promises are not taken lightly, so I live up to others.

Chen Yunfu promised Weng Junbo that he would try his best to protect the lives of his family, which is a man's faith that cannot be lost.

No one can just watch those children die tragically under the butcher's knife and remain indifferent. This is the basic human nature that cannot be destroyed.

At this moment, what Chen Yunfu insisted on was not because of his friendship with Weng Junbo's family, but because of the 'Chen Yunfu' who had been a man for decades.

Now he bowed his head, surrendered to the power, sacrificed his soul and the beliefs he had insisted on for decades, then Chen Yunfu survived, and Chen Yunfu also died.

Since then, there has been no faith, no righteousness, no trace of human touch, only a firm belief that people will not be punished for themselves.

Succumb to authority today, become obsessed with beauty tomorrow, and become obsessed with money and silk that day.

Greedy for money, lustful for power, such an official is improper!
Chen Yunfu lived for more than 30 years in his previous life, and he has always insisted on life beliefs and a chaste personality. Why should he abandon them all in this life in the Ming Dynasty!
This time, he has to fight!

The silence was broken, Chen Yunfu pressed his forehead to the ground and said loudly.

"Your Majesty, according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, officials who are corrupt should be stripped of their skins and real grass, and their family records should be confiscated. There has never been a precedent for punishing the three clans. Weng Junbo deserves to die for his crime, and the crime is unforgivable, but why should he exterminate his heirs.

There are dozens of young children from Weng Junbo's three tribes. They are not old enough to dance spoons, and the young ones are still tottering.

The minister's request is not to blaspheme the imperial decree, but to speak from the heart.

There is a saying that if a family has admonishment sons, they will not fall into their families, and if a state has admonition officials, they will not destroy their country. I really feel that there is something wrong with punishing the three clans. If your majesty persists, in the future, officials and scholars will Confucian scholars and common people all look at the imperial decree and fear it like a tiger. Even if they know that there is something wrong, they dare not face the king directly. How can the country be rejuvenated.

Emperor Taizong liked Wei Zheng's remonstrance against Yan Zhi. He often said that people are like mirrors, and you can see gains and losses.

Your Majesty is so talented that Emperor Taizong is hard to match. I, Hongwu Shengshi Zhilong, will surely go far into the Han and Tang Dynasties. Please think twice, Your Majesty. "

After some conversations, Chen Yunfu had racked his brains with all his might, never giving up what should be praised, what should be praised, and what should be insisted on.

Leave the rest to Zhu Yuanzhang.

The golden palace fell into silence again.

Shao Zhi, who was kneeling beside Chen Yunfu, sighed in his heart. He didn't expect that Chen Yunfu would insist on his own opinion at this moment and refused to back down.

Zhu Biao also frowned, thinking that Chen Yunfu was too ignorant.

But in terms of sensibility, Zhu Biao appreciates it even more, this kid has a gentleman's bamboo knot!
Baoxiang didn't think too much about it, he was focusing on Zhu Yuanzhang now.

This step is not too decent, would Zhu Yuanzhang be willing to step down?

This is somewhat coercive.

It seems that if Zhu Yuanzhang disagrees, he is not as good as Li Er.

In my heart, Li Er has never been regarded by Zhu Yuanzhang as the goal of his emperor's career.

But now Chen Yunfu is running on words, and if he disagrees, he is even worse than Li Er.

"Oh, okay." Zhu Yuanzhang opened his mouth, the anger in his heart had already burned to the neck, and it was about to rise to the top: "It's good to say that if a family has admonishment, don't fall into its family, and if a state has admonishment, don't destroy its country. What's the matter, I won't do it today." Listen to you, my Ming Dynasty will perish?"

As the tone rose, everyone's hearts trembled violently, just when everyone thought Zhu Yuanzhang was about to get angry, they heard that Zhu Yuanzhang had returned to calm.

"Baoxiang."

"The servant is here."

"Plan two imperial edicts."

Baoxiang didn't know what kind of imperial decree Zhu Yuanzhang was planning at this time, but he hurriedly followed suit, drove away the accompanying doctor Chengzhi, licked the ink and picked up the pen, and waited for Zhu Yuanzhang.

"The first imperial decree stated that Shao Zhi, the right servant of the Ministry of Punishments, and Na Weng Junbo secretly formed a party and colluded, causing the case to remain unsolved for two years. Distributed to Liaodong.

As for Weng Junbo, since he had already been "executed by Ling Chi", his confession before his death was considered a meritorious service, and his three clans pardoned him, and instead he was sent to Shaanxi, where he farmed and built a city. "

"The second decree is that the Metropolitan Procuratorate will cultivate Chen Yunfu's youthful intelligence, quick-wittedness and courage, solve major cases in time, and promote the experience of the Metropolitan Procuratorate."

Baoxiang wrote like a dragon and a snake, and quickly drew it up, and presented it to Zhu Yuanzhang's desk. Old Zhu picked up the jade seal and looked down at Chen Yunfu.

"Who said I don't have a big heart?"

Don't you want to be Wei Zheng, don't you just remonstrate with Yan Yan, okay, I won't be angry with you, I will listen to you, and I will give you a promotion.

Weng Junbo's family was saved from death, and Shao Zhi's family was killed instead!
Sending them to Liaodong is more painful than beheading.

Everyone knows that you, Chen Yunfu, have friendship with Shao Zhi's family. Now that you are promoted and Shao Zhi's family is dead, no one will say that you, Chen Yunfu, are stepping on the corpses of Shao Zhi's family!

Thousands of years of writing can speak, but your reputation, Chen Yunfu, will be infamous for thousands of years!

I'm here to see how you choose.

Zhu Yuanzhang is really interested now, and wants to see what else Chen Yunfu can do to break this situation.
