Daming: My brother-in-law is Zhu Youxiao

Chapter 73 Believe it or not, let's take you civil servants to play!Turn the table directly!

Tian Qi laughed after hearing this: "I thought you wanted me to follow the example of Taizu and go back to Fengyang to raise troops."

"We haven't reached that point yet. After all, the Enlisted Corps of His Majesty's Armed Forces School has just defeated Jiannu."

Zhang Gui replied with a smile.

Tian Qi nodded, and suddenly said very seriously: "Then let the enlisted corps of the Armed Forces Academy suppress these scholars who are protesting against the court. They speak out for rebellious ministers, which is tantamount to plotting rebellion!"

With that said, Tianqi asked Wei Zhongxian to draw up an order.

Wei Zhongxian agreed to go.

But not long after, Wei Zhongxian came back and said: "My lord! The cabinet minister Jiuqing and the ministers of all ministries are asking to see you outside!"

After hearing this, Tian Qi walked out quickly and came to the gate of Xiyuan.

At this time, there were also thousands of ministers who came to the gate of Xiyuan, and it was almost impossible to see the edge at a glance.

Zhang Gui, who came out with Tian Qi, didn't expect so many ministers to come, so he couldn't help but glance at Tian Qi, and thought: "Sure enough, the purge is not that easy, the entire civil government has begun to launch a decisive attack on their emperor! Come on! The ones who went outside the Xiyuan should be relatively gentle, and they sincerely consider for the emperor, I am afraid that those scholars outside the Metropolitan Procuratorate are already clamoring that if they don’t listen to them, the country will perish, right?”

Tian Qi was also calm at this time, only looked at Zhu Guozuo, Sun Chengzong, Yang Lian and other ministers and asked: "What do you see me for?"

"Your Majesty, please forgive the crimes of the scholars outside the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and follow the sentiments of the scholars and the people!"

At this time, among the ministers, Shen Yongmao, the Minister of Taichang Temple, called out first.

Immediately, Yang Lian, the imperial censor of Zuodu, followed suit: "Your Majesty, there are already thousands of scholars blocked in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and they all request His Majesty to release Li Sancai and deal with him lightly. He is a trustworthy king and petitions all ministers to govern the country with benevolence! And the minister also persuaded them, but they all refused to leave, and from this point of view, it is hard to break the morale of the scholars! Please also learn from your Majesty!"

Tian Qi said: "I have already prepared an order to send the enlisted corps to suppress it, you don't have to worry too much!"

After hearing this, Yang Lian hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, no!"

Immediately, Yang Lian stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, they all represent the hearts of the people in the world. If they are treated like this, your Majesty may lose the hearts of the world!"

"Your Majesty, please withdraw this intention!"

Zhu Guozuo also yelled, and asked: "Does Your Majesty really want to cut himself off from the scholars?!"

"Don't you ignore the emperor's policy and the law of the country?!"

Tian Qi also followed and asked a question.

"Your Majesty, laws and decrees must be based on personal feelings, just like government affairs must be based on customs. Doing government without following customs is not enough to say good governance; doing law without personal feelings is not good law. If your majesty wants to practice good governance and implement good laws, you must do so. Listen to the people!"

Shen Yongmao retorted at this time.

Tian Qi's expression became stern, and he said: "I am the world, and what I say is a constitution, there is absolutely no reason to take it back! Their rebellion is just rebellion, and there is no reason to cover it up! You say that I will cut myself off from the scholarly community by doing this, so what? What you are doing now is also cutting yourself off from me! The emperor said that a minister should have the way of a minister, and a king should have the way of a monarch. Ask yourself, do you still have the way of a minister?!"

Holding the elephant wat, Yang Lian stepped forward again, and confronted Tianqi very firmly: "Your Majesty! The ministers are here to remonstrate with Your Majesty because they abide by the way of ministers! Please, Your Majesty, put the country as the most important thing, and don't be arrogant!"

"Your Majesty, please take the country as the most important thing, and don't be arrogant!"

The other ministers followed suit.

Tian Qi laughed back angrily: "Do you really think that I am being arrogant? Or are you refusing to explain the plain words to me?"

"Are you acting on your whims? What is the situation inside and outside the Ming Dynasty, and what is the situation of the income and expenditure of the household department? Don't you know better than me?!"

Tian Qi roared, and said: "Why did I do it for the country? If I really only want to be a carpenter emperor, why bother to vindicate Zhang Juzheng?"

"Your Majesty's determination to innovate, the ministers and others know that now more than a thousand scholars are making a fuss in the Metropolitan Procuratorate. In fact, it is not because of Li Xiuwu, but the heart of reform that His Majesty has shown long ago, so that rentiers all over the world They are very vigilant, they are afraid that there will be another reform, but your majesty, it is not the first year of Wanli! Although I also have the heart to fight for your majesty, but this time your majesty only arrests one Li Xiuwu and suppresses only one scholar in Suzhou It caused such a strong reaction from the scholars, it can be seen that the world has reached the point where it is no longer possible to get rid of the bad government."

Yuan Keli, who had returned to Beijing and was promoted to the censor of the left deputy capital, couldn't help but stand up and speak directly to Tianqi.

Immediately, in a desperate tone, he bowed to Tianqi and said: "The disease is already dying, and your majesty can only be the Son of Heaven!"

"I ask you, are they traitors?"

Tian Qi suddenly asked calmly.

The ministers were silent at first, and then Yuan Keli replied: "Yes!"

Immediately, other ministers also said: "Yes!"

Therefore, Tian Qi gritted his teeth and said, "A traitor cannot be forgiven!"

As Tian Qi spoke, he ordered: "Admiral of the Beijing Camp, Zhang Gui!"

"Chen is here!"

Zhang Gui responded.

"His Majesty!"

At this time, Emperor Sun Chengzong stood up, held an elephant wat in front of Tianqi, and asked very seriously: "Are you really going to force them to cut off the grain and cause chaos in the world before you are willing to give in to them? !"

Sun Chengzong added again after speaking: "Your Majesty, this is really not the time to be arrogant!"

Tianqi still has feelings for Sun Chengzong. After all, Sun Chengzong really taught him for a while, and he also knows that he respects Sun Chengzong as a gentleman.

Historically, no matter how dissatisfied Wei Zhongxian, who was in charge of the government, was against Sun Chengzong, he had nothing to do with Sun Chengzong, because Tianqi still cared about Sun Chengzong's teacher-student relationship.

And because of this, after Sun Chengzong stood up and said the same at this time, Tian Qi's eyes became moist: "I didn't expect that even you, master, objected to me! You said that I was acting on my own will!"

Of course, Tian Qi was indeed touched by Sun Chengzong's words at this time, and he had to admit that the biggest capital of the world's officials and gentry is that the world's wealth is controlled in their hands.

After Sun Chengzong was told by Tianqi, his whole body shook for a while, but he didn't say much in the end.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say."

Zhang Gui stood up at this time.

"speak!"

Apocalypse said in a low voice.

Zhang Gui looked at these ministers with contempt, and said: "You know whether what those scholars who made a scene are doing is right or wrong, you also know what their purpose is, and you know His Majesty's thoughts! But you are alone I begged His Majesty to be soft on them. I don’t think you are His Majesty’s courtiers, but rather theirs.”

Speaking of this, Zhang Gui suddenly asked loudly: "Where is your butt sitting?!"

When Zhang Gui asked such a question, Sun Chengzong, who was already quite ashamed by Tianqi's words that "the master also opposes me", knelt down first, prostrated himself on the ground, choked up and said, "Your Majesty! The ministers are doing this for your majesty's sake." Ah! Uncle Guo's words really hurt people too much! Huh!"

"Your Majesty, all the ministers are so loyal that they dare to say this!"

Zhu Guozuo and others also prostrated themselves on the ground, crying loudly one by one, as if they were wronged too.

"It's reasonable for you to worry that the food grains will be cut off, which will damage the country. However, the food grains being cut off doesn't mean that the country will really be destroyed!"

After speaking, Zhang Gui turned around and reported to Tian Qi: "Your Majesty, I still say the same thing, I can solve the risk of grain being cut off."

Immediately, Zhang Gui looked at these civil servants again: "So, Your Majesty, don't worry, the question now is to see if the civil servants of the Manchu Dynasty are willing to follow His Majesty to abolish the bad government in the world. An Xin can get some food for the court and come back, but if they don’t want to.”

As Zhang Gui said, he turned around and cupped his hands to Tian Qi again: "Then please let the eunuch, Eunuch Wei, rule under the dictatorship, or let the foreign relatives, the minister, rule under the dictatorship, and don't bring them foreign civil servants to play! It's really not possible, at worst, just follow the example of Taizu Back then, to organize a rebel army and start from scratch! Anyway, there are a lot of humble Confucian scholars who have no means to serve the country, and they must be willing to follow His Majesty to change the universe again!"

Tian Qi suddenly laughed: "I think it's okay."

"Uncle Guo, please take this back! It's not that time yet! Besides, no one is willing to support His Majesty in abolishing the world's bad governance! We have received the grace of the country, and it's not that we can't be Wang Shuan (Wang Guoguang), Wang Shaozai (Wang Zhuan) ) Wait for someone!"

Yuan Keli said something quickly.

He didn't expect Uncle Zhang Guo to threaten to bring His Majesty the Emperor together to overturn the table!

Moreover, he also knew that if the civil servants like himself were moderate, the emperor would not bring people like himself to play.

Therefore, Yuan Keli had to express his position hastily.
