Chapter 762 Punishment (seeking a monthly ticket)

"This is how to do ah!"

"Yeah, what should we do now? If all the men in the village are arrested, we, the old and weak, women and children, will be left with us."

"Hey, Chinese New Year is coming soon, why did such a thing happen!"

"After a few days of good life, something like this happened again. God won't give us poor people a way to live!"

"..."

Among the buzzing discussions, panic is spreading.

At this moment, someone outside suddenly shouted.

"The patriarch is here!"

The voice fell, and the people who were discussing turned their heads and looked out one after another.

I saw a middle-aged man in his forties wearing a Confucian shirt, surrounded by several young and strong, striding into the ancestral hall from the outside.

"Why panic? Don't panic!"

While speaking, the Wang family members walked into the ancestral hall with great strides and sat down on a chair.

He looked around for a week and spoke.

"The patriarch has already sent people to Chengdu to inquire about it. We are not to blame for this conflict!"

"In the future, the patriarch will go to Chengdu Mansion to hand over the papers in person!"

"I believe the imperial court will uphold justice for us!"

Following the words of the head of the royal family, the other people in the ancestral hall gradually settled down and stopped panicking.

After everyone was quiet, the head of the royal family continued to speak.

"But, just to be on the safe side, we'd better raise a sum of money and send a telegram to Jiangnan to ask the master for help."

"Someone from my royal family is an official in the court, and they are important ministers in the court. There is no need to be afraid of a group of barbarians who came down from the plateau!"

The Wang family was able to relocate a village with hundreds of thousands of people to settle in Sichuan at one go, and the energy of the family must be considerable.

Otherwise, the cost of immigration alone would not be affordable for ordinary small families.

The main family of their family in Jiangnan is also a big family in Jiangnan.

He also has his own contacts in the court!

If the Chengdu government cannot give him justice to the Wang family, then they will have no choice but to bring the matter to the court.

……

Nanjing, the Forbidden City!

The sky was bright, Zhu Hongyu opened his eyes.

Feeling the plump and soft bodies of the two beauties beside him, Zhu Hongyu climbed up from the Yu family's twins' bed with his strong willpower.

"His Majesty!"

"His Majesty!"

Following Zhu Hongyu's movements, the two delicate beauties on the bed were also awakened, rubbing their sleepy eyes, and calling out to His Majesty with soft voices.

Zhu Hongyu lifted the quilt, put on his robe, turned around and said to the beauty on the bed.

"You guys were exhausted last night too, go rest, don't get up!"

The inspection of the Daming Imperial Arsenal was finished yesterday. Zhu Hongyu originally wanted to find his little wild horse to ride the horse, but the little wild horse had menstruation and it was really inconvenient.

And Zhu Hongyu didn't want to fight bloody battles, so instead he ran to the palace of Yu's sisters to spend the night!

Seeing Daming's great progress in weapon research and development, Zhu Hongyu was quite excited.

Then, last night, he vented his excitement on the Yu family's twins.

And Zhu Hongyu's physical fitness was far beyond ordinary people because of time travel.

Coupled with years of persistent exercise, Zhu Hongyu's body is even better.

In addition, he was quite emotional, and he worked hard last night until the middle of the night before falling asleep with his arms around the two of them!

Zhu Hongyu needs to get up early in the morning to deal with government affairs, but the Yu sisters don't need to get up early.

They were very tired last night, they just need to rest well today.

Zhu Hongyu still dotes on his woman very much!

Although Zhu Hongyu was quite tired last night, he almost recovered after sleeping.

After dressing and washing, he ate breakfast calmly.

His breakfast is very simple, a touch of duck blood vermicelli soup, a stack of Hangzhou steamed buns, a vegetable and fruit salad, and two fried eggs.

Balanced nutrition and full stomach!
This is enough, he has very high requirements for food, but he will not waste it.

Just as Zhu Hongyu was eating his breakfast, a young eunuch ran up from a distance.

The little eunuch ran all the way to Zhu Hongyu, and then spoke.

"His Majesty!"

"Telegram from Chengdu Mansion!"

While speaking, a telegram from Chengdu Mansion was delivered to Zhu Hongyu's desk.

Zhu Hongyu took the telegram, opened it and read it.

As the telegram was read, Zhu Hongyu's originally calm face began to become gloomy little by little.

"Hehe, how courageous!"

"How dare you!"

"Dare to attack our people in Daming, who gave him the guts?"

Zhu Hongyu was annoyed, he lost his appetite for the tempting food in front of him.

He got up from the stool and paced around the palace.

The low air pressure around him is very scary!
The maids and eunuchs who were waiting on the side were all cowering, desperately lowering their sense of presence recently, not daring to touch the emperor's bad luck at this time.

After a while, Zhu Hongyu made a decision and spoke.

"Send an order to the prefect of Chengdu to make him judge in strict accordance with the law of the Ming Dynasty!"

"According to the cause of the incident, properly determine the responsibility, and determine the responsibility and punishment of those involved."

"No favoritism allowed!"

"The solemnity of the Great Ming law is inviolable!"

"Don't say that it is only a group of missionary guards who committed the crime, even if the crime is committed by Gao Yuan Living Buddha, he is no bigger than Daming Luqu!"

"Let the prefect of Chengdu warn the mission again, if there are any more reckless acts that violate the laws of Ming Dynasty, they will be severely punished!"

"Let the mission weigh the consequences for itself!"

Punishment of a few guards was nothing more than a big deal to Zhu Hongyu.

As for whether his decree to punish the guards of the mission at this time would lead to a breakdown in the relationship between Ming and Gao Yuan, making Gao Yuan break away from Ming's nominal rule.

That's nonsense, it's just a few guards, it won't affect the overall situation.

I don't believe that Gao Yuan will turn against him because of a few guards!
Of course, it was true that Zhu Hongyu didn't care about this.

The current plateau is only surrendering to Daming in name.

Zhu Hongyu couldn't accept such a situation.

When he frees up his hand, he will definitely seek to change the current almost independent status of the plateau.

Plus the reforms he plans to implement on the plateau in the future!
At that time, it is estimated that [-]% of the vested interest classes on the entire plateau will choose to stand on the opposite side of Ming Dynasty.

To put it bluntly, Zhu Hongyu was going to launch a wave of killing nobles on the plateau to divide the land, and then swallowed the plateau completely.

So, now Zhu Hongyu is really not afraid of the breakdown of the relationship between Daming and Gao Yuan!
Anyway, sooner or later it will break!

The little eunuch knelt down to accept the order, then turned around and trotted all the way, preparing to convey Zhu Hongyu's imperial edict.

Zhu Hongyu sat back in his seat, finished his breakfast in a hurry, and then prepared to deal with government affairs.

……

Two days later, it was time for the Great Court Meeting once every ten days.

But this court meeting is different from the past, because this is the last court meeting this year.

After the stereotyped congratulations and salutes, the ministries of the imperial court stood up one by one and reported their work to the emperor.

It is said to report to the emperor, but to put it bluntly, it is actually reported to the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty.

Zhu Hongyu already knew the content of the report.

After the report was over, Zhu Hongyu was about to announce that the courtiers would take annual leave.

At this moment, an official in the class stood up and said.

"Report to Your Majesty, I have something to play!"

Zhu Hongyu showed a slightly astonished expression on his face, good guy, there is really a stunned young man who came to speak to Zhu Hongyu at the court meeting?
This court meeting is not a place where you can handle any serious business, is it?

However, since everyone has come forward, it is natural for Zhu Hongyu not to let others talk about it.

Being good at accepting advice is a traditional virtue of the emperor, this must not be lost!
Regardless of the facts, window dressing is always necessary.

"If the Qing family has anything to say, speak freely!"

Zhu Hongyu pretended to be expressionless, and then spoke.

The courtier who stood up said.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I heard that Gao Yuan was led by a living Buddha and sent a mission to the Han area. They want to come to Nanjing to pay homage to the emperor and swear allegiance to me, Ming."

"But when the mission arrived in Chengdu, it was attacked by a group of unruly people. One of the mission was seriously injured and the other was slightly injured."

"But now the prefect of Chengdu is imprisoning the relevant personnel of the mission, favoring the troublesome people under his rule!"

"For the sake of the friendship between Daming and Gao Yuan, please His Majesty issue an order to punish the people involved in the incident, so as to return justice to the mission!"

When Zhu Hongyu heard this, his originally calm face instantly turned gloomy.

Just when he was about to explode, another person stood up in the class and said.

"Report to Your Majesty, I have something to say!"

Zhu Hongyu said with a dark face and suppressed his temper.

"speak!"

The person who stood up last turned around and reprimanded the first official who stood up very rudely.

"Lord Liu's words are wrong!"

"As far as I know, the reason for the conflict between the people of Chengdu and the plateau mission guards this time is the active provocation of the mission guards."

"The people of Chengdu will only defend themselves and fight back after being attacked!"

"Master Liu asked His Majesty to punish the victim severely, but to please the perpetrator, wouldn't he be injustice to His Majesty?"

The last official who stood up was surnamed Wang, and he was the Wang family's connection in the court.

Liu Yunfeng saw that he was bullied, and turned his head to look at the person who scolded him, with a very ugly expression on his face.

But he still opened his mouth to retort.

"Why did Mr. Wang say this?"

"Even if what Mr. Wang said is true, the responsibility lies with the guards of the mission, but the mission is going to Nanjing to pay homage to the emperor. Shouldn't I, Ming Dynasty, give the mission some convenience?"

"My Ming Dynasty is a kingdom of heaven, so naturally I should have the bearing of a kingdom of heaven!"

"How can the mission be wronged on my land of Ming Dynasty?"

However, as soon as Liu Yunfeng finished speaking, a piece of jade pendant flew from the direction of the dragon chair and hit him directly on the forehead.

In an instant, a big cut was made on Liu Yunfeng's forehead, and bright red blood flowed all over his face.

Liu Yunfeng clutched the wound on his forehead, couldn't help screaming out in pain, he dared to curse at the top of his throat that it was that son of a bitch who hit him.

But as soon as he turned his head, he saw the emperor with an angry face.

In an instant, Liu Yunfeng was like a duck whose throat was choked, and his voice stopped abruptly.

Zhu Hongyu got up from the dragon chair and said in a murderous voice.

"Bastard, does my salary support such a cruel person like you?!"

"Hehe, what's the matter? From your point of view, the mission cannot be wronged on my Daming land, so the people of my Daming, the people of Zhen, should be wronged on my land of Daming?"

"Severely punishing the embassy will hinder the dignity of the Kingdom of Heaven? Why, do you think that my dignity of the Kingdom of Heaven is obtained by currying favor with foreign vassals?"

"Nonsense, the so-called celestial kingdom's dignity cannot be won!"

"The decency of the Heavenly Kingdom is based on the swords and guns of my Ming soldiers, and exists within the range of my Ming's cannons!"

"Damn it, since they are coming to Nanjing for pilgrimage to me, then they have to correct their attitude! If they come here respectfully, I won't be stingy with rewards."

"But if they cause trouble in my Daming land, I won't spoil them!"

"My mother, what is it!"

"Send an order to the prefect of Chengdu, let him tell the mission, if there is another time, I don't mind sending a large army to conquer, teach them the rules of paying tribute, let them know what is called the king's teacher, and what is called to hang the people crime!"

The anger on Zhu Hongyu's face cannot be faked, and his reprimand to Liu Yunfeng was also a vent from the heart.

Hearing Zhu Hongyu's reprimand, Liu Yunfeng's knees softened, and he knelt down on the ground with a plop.

Beads of sweat the size of beans began to appear continuously on his forehead. The sweat flowed and seeped into the wound, causing even more severe pain.

But at this moment, Liu Yunfeng's heart was instantly filled with fear and fear, and he didn't care about the sharp pain on his forehead.

He knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously, and said in a repeated voice.

"I know my mistake, I know my mistake!"

"Your Majesty's redemption!"

"Please make atonement, Your Majesty!"

"..."

Seeing the emperor's anger, the other civil and military ministers in the court all knelt down and spoke.

"Your Majesty, please temporarily extinguish the fury of Thunder!"

"Your Majesty, please temporarily extinguish the fury of Thunder!"

"..."

Zhu Hongyu snorted coldly and said.

"Come here, remove Liu Yunfeng's official robe and drag him out of the imperial city."

"Dismissed from office, resigned, never to be employed!"

When Zhu Hongyu said this, his voice was full of unquestionable domineering.

None of the courtiers dared to stand up and raise objections.

It was the first time for them to see the emperor so angry, even so angry that he beat people himself in the court.

Facing the angry emperor, who can not be afraid?
Immediately afterwards, several Jinyi guards quickly entered the hall, removed Liu Yunfeng's official hat and robe without saying a word, and then dragged Liu Yunfeng, who was still begging for mercy, outside the hall...

After Liu Yunfeng was dragged away, Wang Huai returned to the court silently and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Zhu Hongyu glanced over the courtiers, his eyes were burning and full of oppression.

Zhu Hongyu didn't speak until the civil and military men of the whole court began to sweat under his oppressive gaze.

"My lords!"

"Today I am very angry, really angry!"

"I don't understand, Liu Yunfeng is wearing my Daming's official robe and receiving my Daming's official salary, why should he speak for those outsiders?"
