Daming: My brother-in-law is Zhu Youxiao

Chapter 100 Flipping the Table!If you don't admit it, I will cut it down!

Tian Qi is now beheading the ministers very calmly, beheading two senior officials in a flash.

The whole court was shocked.

At this time, Miao Changqi was trembling as he watched Tianqi get Wei Zhongxian's memorial to impeach Uncle Zhang Guo and slander the New Deal, then knelt down to Yang Lian and said:

"Mr. Yang! Admit it! If you don't admit it, we will be killed because of you! How can you bear it! If a gentleman has friends, he will have a party, Mr. Yang! Why are you so hypocritical and only care about your own name? And ignore my life and death!"

Seeing that Yang Lian didn't respond, Miao Changqi threatened Yang Lian in anxiety, "Your surname is Yang, you are cutting yourself off from the scholarly community!"

Yang Lian is also in pain, this is not the script he wants.

What he thought was that the emperor would kill him, preferably cruelly, so that he would be famous in history, so that the people of the world and future generations would recognize that he died for the country, for the sake of rectifying the king's gains and losses!

But now, under the suggestion of his uncle Zhang Gui, the emperor directly turned the table, instead of killing Yang Lian, he killed other ministers who opposed the New Deal who had the same political views as Yang Lian but were not as strong as him in terms of backbone.

This made Yang Lian worry that he would offend scholars all over the world.

And all the scholars and bureaucrats in the world resented him because of his stubbornness, resenting that he cared too much about his own personal reputation, and did not save the lives of most people.

Many people may even think that Yang Lian is pedantic and selfish. Rather than seeing a large number of courtiers die because of him, he is not willing to give up a little fame.

But Yang Lian was really unwilling to give up.

He can be killed by the king, but he cannot take the initiative to admit that he formed a party for personal gain and was disloyal to his father.

Because it means that he himself is the one who betrayed Confucianism.

"Chopped!"

Seeing that Yang Lian didn't speak, Tian Qi still gave an order.

As a result, Miao Changqi was also dragged out.

Miao Changqi was about to cry now.

He didn't understand what Yang Lian was still insisting on. He used to appreciate Yang Lian's tough and dare to speak out character.

But now, he suddenly felt that Yang Lian, a stubborn person who would rather lose his life than sacrifice his own reputation, was disgusting!
Miao Changqi really wanted to say, if you, Yang Lian, don't admit to the emperor that you have a party, the officials who oppose the New Deal and speak for the world's officials and gentry will be killed.

Could it be that you, Yang Lian, think that we still dare to tear ourselves apart with the emperor? !

"Your surname is Yang! Even if I'm a ghost, I won't let you go!"

Miao Changqi shouted angrily at this moment.

"Wait!"

But at this time, Yang Lian suddenly called out.

Therefore, Tianqi let the two Jinyiwei not kill Miao Changqi for the time being.

A smile suddenly appeared on Miao Changqi's face, thinking that he could finally save his life, but it was a pity for Gao Panlong and Shen Yongmao.

However, Yang Lian did not intend to admit that he had a party and was forming a party, but said: "Your Majesty, if you kill the ministers like this, the whole court will be empty! At that time, the government will definitely be greatly affected, and the country will be endangered! "

"Your Majesty! I believe that Yang Lian's party members will endanger the country if he does not get rid of them!"

"As for whether the extermination of traitors in this way will affect the government, the minister thinks, no! They are all people who live on a vegetarian diet. Killing them will save the country's money and give way to sages."

"Daming has no shortage of officials. It's just that Mr. Grandson of Otsuka will work harder and immediately promote a group of people to select a group of people. At worst, he will open Enke, or Enke can increase the number of Jinshi candidates every time."

Zhang Gui started talking at this time, and said: "In fact, the Confucian scholars who are determined to serve the country today are like crucian carp crossing the river, and there are many capable people. Today, these mediocre ministers who only know how to slander the New Deal but have made no contribution to the status quo of the poor and poor people of the country, and even deliberately add to the obstruction!"

As Zhang Gui spoke, he took out a stack of letters: "Your Majesty, here are the letters they wrote to you. I planned to present them to Your Majesty after the court today. I might as well dedicate them to Your Majesty now. These are all things they have been in touch with. After the common people understand the hardships of the people, the idea of ​​reform explained to the minister may not be a good strategy, but the minister believes that it is better to let them come to the court to be officials than to let the court be full of beetles."

"Bring the letter."

Apocalypse called out.

Soon, Tianqi got these letters, and saw that some scholars mentioned in the letters that "the gentry should be allocated to the mu"; The reason given is that the proportion of land occupied by officials and gentry has far exceeded that in the early days of the Republic of China, and preferential exemption will only limit the increase in imperial tax revenue; Therefore, it is even more difficult. In order to earn profits from raw silk and cotton cloth, some large households drive farmers away from the land and plant mulberry and cotton.

Tian Qi looked at it and said: "It is indeed much more pragmatic than many ministers in the Manchu Dynasty."

"However, most of them have no way to serve the country because of the limited number of seats in the imperial examination and their humble backgrounds. Your Majesty, the number of scholars in our Ming Dynasty far exceeds that of the beginning of the country. The number of candidates for admission to Jinshi must also increase with the times. Otherwise, there is no way to serve the country. There are too many scholars in the school, and I am afraid of resentment. Generally speaking, my Ming Dynasty has no shortage of officials."

Zhang Gui replied.

Apocalypse nodded.

But Yang Lian objected at this time: "Your Majesty! The imperial examination is a grand ceremony for talents. How can you increase the number of places without authorization, but flood the court with a large number of mediocre people? Please think twice, Your Majesty, and don't change the national policy again!"

"Your Majesty, please allow your Majesty to spread Zongxian Yang's words to the world, so that all scholars in the world who are determined to serve the country can hear who is blocking their way forward."

Zhang Gui suggested at this time.

"allow!"

Apocalypse said.

"Wait a minute!"

Yang Lian yelled again, and then said weakly: "I take back my words! Taking more people with lofty ideals from all over the world is the emperor's favor, how can I stop it."

Tian Qi laughed because of this, and asked Yang Lian: "Then you admit that you have accomplices?"

"minister……"

Yang Lian hesitated.

Miao Changqi looked at Yang Lian eagerly.

But it didn't take long before Yang Lian replied: "I have no accomplices, all I do is rectify His Majesty's gains and losses, and I haven't formed a party with anyone!"

Miao Changqi: "..."

"Cut off Miao Changqi!"

Tian Qi shouted immediately.

Click!

It didn't take long for Miao Changqi to be killed.

Tian Qi then picked up another playbook and asked Yang Lian, "Do you admit it?"

Yang Lian only said: "I beg your Majesty to be merciful!"

"Chopped!"

Tianqi threw away the playbook.

Another minister who opposed the New Deal was dragged out to take the lead.

"Do you have any party?"

Tian Qi picked up another playbook and asked Yang Lian.

Yang Lian: "No!"

"Chopped!"

Tianqi threw the playbook away again.

Click!

This civil servant was also decapitated, and before being decapitated, he also scolded Yang Lian: "Yang Lian, you hypocrite! For your own sake, you don't care about the life and death of others!"

Click!

Click!

Click!

……

Because Yang Lian stubbornly refused to admit that he had an accomplice, and refused to admit that he was not sincerely for Daming and for His Majesty, one by one civil servants were beheaded.

Naturally, these were all opposition to the New Deal in the past.

Tianqi waited until now to deal with it, and his original intention was to catch all these people in one go.

Otherwise, if Apocalypse had dealt with Yang Lian's first memorial to oppose the New Deal, there would not be so many ministers who followed him to oppose the New Deal.

What's even better now is that after Zhang Gui's suggestion, he directly forced Yang Lian to get rid of these ministers who opposed the New Deal.

Huang Liji watched all this with trepidation at this time, he didn't know when it would be his turn to post the memorial against the New Deal.

He had to admit that what happened at today's court meeting was beyond his expectation. When he had secret discussions with Shen Yongmao and others in the past, he originally wanted to let the emperor kill Yang Lian to intensify people's dissatisfaction with the New Deal. Unexpectedly, now Tianqi spared Yang Lian and killed them directly.
