eldest son of Ming dynasty

Chapter 128 Knowing that I have sinned against me is only a matter of age!
"Is my prince alright?"

Emperor Hongzhi didn't care how bad the situation was, nor did he think about the impact of today's events on the future court situation.He didn't have time to think about those, because there was a kind of fear in his heart, fearing that if something happened to the prince, it would be over.

If that's the case, don't talk about saving a few virtuous ministers, even revive Zhuge Liang, Guo Ziyi, Fan Zhongyan and other names that are shining in history books and put them in Fengtian Hall to kowtow to him.

Moreover, his health is not very good, and it is unlikely to have another one.

It is difficult for him to adapt to the extremely hot weather like now, he is always uncomfortable all over, and sometimes he can't sleep all night.

Xiao Jing has always been mature and stable, but before the big event of the officials forcing the palace, there was cold sweat on his forehead, he walked with his head down and trot today, none of the little eunuchs outside dared to make a sound, only the one who delivered the news ran all the way , Panting heavily, kowtowed in front of the emperor.

"Speak quickly! Do you want to kill me?!"

"Back... back to the emperor, Your Highness... Your Highness is fine!"

The head of the cabinet, Liu Jian, also let out a long sigh of relief, and wiped his forehead with his old hand like a dead branch.

Just now when they were in the cabinet, the three of them heard that a courtier from Zuoshunmen was going to rush in, and they were so scared that their souls would fly out.

So Li and Xie went to Zuoshunmen, while he went all the way to Qianqing Palace.

If this matter is not dealt with today, it will definitely be a catastrophe!
In other words, it was already a catastrophe.

After Emperor Hongzhi was frightened, he became furious. This is a natural psychological reaction. It is the anger rushing from the soles of his feet to the top of the sky.

The emperor got up from the throne, his face distorted with anger, and he yelled at Liu Jian with trembling hands, "I just mobilized a few ministers, and they are so dissatisfied, okay! Is it not enough to be tolerant enough to take back the imperial decree?! I am the Ninth Five-Year Lord, which emperor of Taiping has suffered such humiliation since ancient times? Since Emperor Taizu Gao of my Ming Dynasty, which emperor has tolerated ministers so much?!"

"But not only are they unwilling to retreat, but they also forcefully break into the palace and attack my prince! I have been in power for eleven years, and I have appointed virtuous ministers and worked hard to rule! I don't know where the virtues are not cultivated, but today, there is such a group of people who don't know the king and ministers. Rebellious ministers and traitors who do not abide by the guidelines of the monarch and ministers! Ah..."

The emperor was furious, and the continuous roar required a strong lung capacity, so that he almost couldn't get up in one breath, and he fell straight backwards.

Xiao Jing and Liu Jian panicked when they saw it.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!!" The old eunuch Xiao Jing hurriedly stepped forward to support the emperor, and said in a sobbing voice, "Your Majesty calm down, the dragon body is important!"

Liu Jian got up halfway, knelt back again, gritted his teeth and said: "Please calm down, Your Majesty, don't hurt the dragon's body!"

"Ah... Oh my god..." Emperor Hongzhi roared dryly, tears welling up in the corners of his eyes, "It is said that I am a fatuous king through the ages, even if the ancestors have spirits underground, they will definitely blame the unworthy descendants Zhu Youtang, why did such a group of things inferior to beasts flood the court! Liu Jian!"

"Sir, here."

"You are the head of the cabinet, leading the group of officials, what are you going to do about today's affairs?!"

Liu Jian is caught in the middle and it is very difficult to be a human being.

If blood is spilled on Zuo Shunmen today, he, the cabinet chief, will not be able to stand up among the civil servants in the future.

But the emperor and the crown prince confirmed that this group of people forcibly committed the felony of breaking into the palace and colliding with the prince. If the felony passed away, the group of people who supported the prince would want to tear him to pieces!

This Wu Kuan, why must it be like this!
"Your Majesty, I believe that His Majesty the Crown Prince is wise to make decisions, has the resources of heaven, and is the one who knows who is causing the trouble in person. Therefore, I think the decision on this matter should be handed over to His Majesty!"

The emperor's eyeballs seemed to be frozen for a second or two, and then he turned slightly to look at the cabinet chief that he held in his hand.

A few days ago,
The crown prince also said to the emperor here: "...Liu Jian, Mr. Liu Ge, is diligent and conscientious. He is a good cabinet leader. But he dare not bear such a crime, let alone bear it. The minister has no choice but to treat the minister seriously, Liu Ge will definitely say that it is up to the son-in-law to make the decision."

Because the prince made a decision, it was not his cabinet chief's business.

Emperor Hongzhi suddenly smiled miserably. The prince said many possibilities that day, but he did not believe in today's possibility. In any case, he is also an important minister who has been favored by several dynasties.

Moreover, he knows the general situation and takes the overall situation into consideration, and will never do anything to offend the prince.

It was also because he believed that this was impossible and that the situation would not deteriorate so much that he allowed Zhu Houzhao to take such a risk.

Who would have thought...it would be like this,
So he laughed miserably, not because Liu Jian broke his heart, what can Liu Jian do?Just like what the prince said, the decree was to severely punish hundreds of civil servants. Once Liu Jian did it, he would be doomed forever.

It was these ministers who broke his heart. In the past, he naturally couldn't see the side of the ministers. He thought that the emperor was wise and the ministers were wise... the old story, in the end, it was only because of his gentle personality that he was so happy. peaceful.

He never imagined that among the officials of the imperial court, there would be such a minister without a king or a father!

"Just according to your words..." At this moment, Emperor Hongzhi's heart seemed to dry up, "The prince's handling has always been thoughtful and meticulous, and there is nothing wrong with it."

"There is one more thing. I would like to ask your Majesty to forgive Ma Wensheng, Wu Kuan, Zhou Jing and others. First, I dare to assure you that as human beings, not to mention offending His Highness, it is disrespectful to His Highness." No heart. Second, once they are executed, won’t it be announced to the world that the court’s veterans of the three dynasties turned out to be traitors in the end? This would be detrimental to the court’s face and His Majesty’s holiness!”

The scene of Wu Kuan giving lectures to him when he was the prince flashed through Emperor Hongzhi's mind.

"Quite. However, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living penalty cannot be escaped."

At this moment, Liu Jian really felt what it meant to be Emperor Ren, "I thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"

……

……

And on the other side,
Li Dongyang and Xie Qian knelt in front of Zhu Houzhao, but Zhu Houzhao still beat everyone up!

"Your Highness! Da Sima and several important ministers are only seven years old, if this fight continues, they will kill people!"

On the side of the Zuoshun Gate close to the palace, the ministers all over the floor were wailing, and blood was splashed from the concealed sticks. Some people were shouting at first, but they have already fainted now.

Some people were waiting, but now they also fainted.

I really think that political struggle is just a memorial to the superiors, scolding those who are in power!There is a price to pay.

"Mr. Li Ge, Mr. Xie Ge. There are no Ministers of the Ministry of War or Ministers of the Ministry of Rites here! There are only rebellious officials and thieves here! What the fuck are the important officials of the court, and you are the ones who said that the emperor broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people! Are you telling the truth of the world? go?!"

"Call me!"

Zhu Houzhao would be lying if he said that he was not afraid at all. After all, he had small arms and legs and no one around him to protect him. What if someone with a bad mind squeezed him down and caused a stampede?
It's all over,

If there is no blood today, where is the majesty of the prince?

If no one is killed today, will anyone still listen to the order of the East Palace in the future? !

"what!!"

"Dizzy again!"

The prince just sat on the chair with his arms crossed and his fingers rubbed. This kind of scene was not comfortable for him, but he wanted to finish watching it today.

Xie Qian was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. His eyes fell on Wu Kuan, Ma Wensheng and other senior ministers. He saw with his own eyes that blood was pouring from Wu Kuan's clenched teeth. fell down.

"Your Highness! I really can't fight anymore! Wu Shilang has passed out!!"

But the prince seemed to ignore him.

Xie Qian had no choice but to rush over and put his body on Wu Kuan's back. He wanted to shout something, but a board fell, and a sharp pain penetrated into his chest, "Ah! It hurts! It hurts, Your Highness!" !"

Also at this time,
Suddenly a young eunuch with quick legs ran into the palace. Liu Jian sent him here, because he was afraid that he would not be able to keep up when he was old, so he came first to deliver the imperial edict.

"Your Highness, His Majesty has spoken!"

In such a public occasion, Zhu Houzhao must listen to Hongzhi, which is his first principle.To be honest, if he doesn't listen, the power in his hands will have no legitimacy.

"What did the emperor say?"

"Your Majesty said today's matter, and His Highness is present at the scene. How to deal with it is entirely up to His Majesty. But... it is best to save the lives of my teachers."

Li Dongyang and Xie Qian knew that the emperor was also half dead when they heard it, because with Hongzhi's character, he could say that it was all up to His Highness to dispose of him, and he no longer cared about the life and death of these courtiers, which was actually quite heavy.

"Your servant must obey the order." Zhu Hou looked at Xie Qian, "Xie Ge, you have heard my father's dictation. Take him away."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Prince Long En!" He had just read it, and it was inevitable that Wu Kuan's meal would cost half his life, but he was still angry.

"Don't hit anyone else either."

Liu Jin was stupefied, "His Royal Highness, except for the first ones who are already full, the more than 20 people who lined up behind have not yet reached their full fifty."

Zhu Houzhao thought about it, and it was you, Liu Jin, who wanted to be the villain himself.This eunuch is rampant after gaining power, regardless of the outcome or consequences, if I can step on you, then I will definitely step on you!
"That's good. Except for the ones that the emperor ordered to protect, the rest will hit fifty! After that, all of them will be thrown out of the palace!"

Hearing this in the audience, everyone immediately scolded Liu Jin in their hearts. He has no descendants, but all eighteen generations of ancestors scolded him!
After talking about this, Zhu Houzhao didn't want to watch it anymore, so he stood up and walked back.

After walking a few steps, he saw Liu Jian walking quickly out of breath, and behind him was a eunuch wearing a hat running wildly all the way.

"Your Highness! Great victory! Northwest victory!"

As soon as Zhu Houzhao heard it, his mind was attracted, and his feet moved a little faster, which made Liu Jin stunned: Isn't it... Can't you hear it?
"My maidservant congratulates His Highness! Just now, the Supervisor of Rites reported his victory to His Majesty. Wang Yue, the commander-in-chief of the three sides of the Northwest, went out of Helan Mountain. Ditch, the Tatar army fled westward in defeat! More than [-] horses, camels, cattle and sheep were seized!"

Because it was news just now, Liu Jian only heard about it.

He collected his mood and cupped his hands to congratulate him, "With this great victory, I have no worries in the Northwest! I congratulate Your Highness!"

Zhu Houzhao took the victory report, glanced at it hastily, clenched his hands tightly, and went back to the group of 'loyal ministers' who were overthrown on the ground, saying: "Let me take a look at it all! After ten years, it will be Daming Shengshi, as you said, will be a villain in the Manchu Dynasty! Liu Jin, bring a pen and paper!"

"Yes!"

But after a while, Liu Jin came with something.Zhu Houzhao's handwriting is not good, but he doesn't care. Since ancient times, how many heroes have regarded calligraphy as something extraordinary?

From an artistic point of view, his movements are not elegant, but in terms of momentum, they are far beyond human comparison:
Turned out to be born in Mang Kunlun, reading all the spring scenery in the world.

Flying 300 million jade dragons made Zhou Tian cold.

Dissolving in summer, rivers overflowing, people may be fish and turtles.

Who has commented on the merits and sins of the past?
……

All the literary masters present are present. His Royal Highness is congratulating Wang Yue on his great victory, and he is also expressing his ambitions today: who has ever commented on the merits and crimes of the past?

I did this, whether it was a merit or a crime, let people after Qianqiu decide!

Liu Jian was already in admiration in his heart. For three generations, there has been a prince who can do this, and that is my prince of Ming Dynasty.And people of later generations, when looking at what happened in Zuoshunmen today, even if they strongly criticize the prince's actions, they still have at least three points of respect in their hearts.

With this wise and knowledgeable hero, Daming, there is hope for ZTE!
