Chapter 305 Are you scared?

The night in Jiangnan is cold.

The bright moon hangs high.

Emperor Zhu walked alone on the spacious and empty palace.

A sense of loneliness welled up in my heart.

in this era,
There is a big generation gap between him and his ministers and concubines.

This loneliness made him understand.

There are not many courtiers and officials who agree with him. Even a hardcore Gu Song supports all his policies based on the loyalty of "monarch and ministers".

Essentially.

Gu Song is still a scholar-bureaucrat.

For the entire scholar-bureaucrat class.

Emperor Zhu has been courting him for several years.

All the benefits that should be given have been given.

But giving benefits can only buy real villains.

Not much use for gentlemen or hypocrites.

Now many "true gentlemen" from Sichuan are coming to Zhongdu.

Therefore, this tool of Ming's dictatorship must be used!

"Why are you going to start tax inspection?"

"I haven't taken the exam in Sichuan yet, so Sichuan has always been military and political?"

"The emperor is unfair! Unfair!"

soon.

The news of the imperial court's suspension of the imperial examination in Sichuan reached Chengdu.

Immediately aroused great dissatisfaction.

Although the imperial court apparently made concessions to the Sichuan scholars.

But in fact, they were left alone.

Of course these Sichuan scholars know that if the exam is not held in Sichuan now, then the officials in Sichuan will have to be done by foreigners.

The benefits of being an official will go to foreign officials.

How can they accept this?

Therefore, the decree of the Ming court not only did not appease the scholars in Sichuan.

Instead, it made them more excited.

Even more aggrieved.

It's not that they don't want to take the imperial examination.

But I don't want to take the new exam.

"Bao Mingjiao! Stop the New Deal!"

Someone chanted among the crowd.

"Bao Mingjiao! Stop the New Deal!!"

There was a quick response from the crowd.

"Gather at the Tribute Court, we must let the emperor know our determination!"

" Stereotyped selection of scholars, rejection of new learning!"

"Take stereotyped scholars, reject new learning!!"

Soon, a large number of scholars gathered in Chengdu Gongyuan.

The yamen of the Governor of Sichuan Province in the Ming Dynasty was on high alert, and a memorial to report the situation flowed down the Yangtze River.

"The situation in Sichuan is in chaos!"

"Scholars from all counties have gone to the Gongyuan!"

"It's all the seeds of reading!"

"What does the emperor say?"

"Isn't it going to be a knife attack?"

In the imperial court of Zhongdu, the matter of the Chengdu Tribute Court soon became the focus of everyone's discussion.

The court officials gathered in the Qinzheng Hall, discussing in low voices.

On Emperor Zhu's desk, of course, he also put the matter of the school dynasty in Chengdu as the top priority.

"The opposition always fools the students to make troubles. Is this also a traditional performing arts?"

Emperor Zhu muttered in a low voice when he entered the Hall of Qinzheng.

"Your Majesty, there are tens of thousands of scholars from all over Sichuan gathered in the Duongyuan. They demand that the imperial court stereotype the selection of scholars and hold the Sichuan imperial examination within this year!" Peng Jun, Minister of Education, said with a frown.

Zhu Daohua snorted coldly: "Scholarship with stereotyped writing? Impossible! Just take the new school test, love the test or not, I'm good enough for them, Sichuan Province gave [-] black hats, isn't it enough? What else is there for the test? Listen to them? Send an order to Luo Dingshan, governor of Sichuan, to send troops to suppress it!"

Peng Jun was taken aback for a moment, then his back felt cold.

I sighed in my heart.

The people behind really thought that the emperor would not dare to use a sword.
It might be okay to accept it as soon as you see it, but if you insist on it, none of those people behind will be able to escape.

"Hahahahaha! Emperor Zhu's world is in chaos so quickly!!"

Chengdu.

A restaurant next to the Gongyuan.

A middle-aged man wearing a hat laughed heartily.

The two young men next to him looked nervously, and said in a low voice, "Master, keep your voice down, keep your voice down, be careful that the walls have ears!"

"What am I afraid of? Emperor Zhu has dragged the entire Manchurian family to Uliasutai. If I slip through the net, he can catch me!"

The person who spoke obviously drank a lot, and his face was somewhat excited.

Obviously, it is the "manchu remnants" that have not been cleaned up.

This is the Ming Dynasty that has not undergone a thorough revolution.

After hiding for more than a year, they found that the Ming Dynasty did not launch any major actions to "capture the remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty" all over the country, so they changed their surnames and came out to carry out activities.

This Ming Dynasty is really full of reactionaries everywhere.

The fifth year of the restoration of Ming Dynasty, the third day of May.

Chengdu, Sichuan.

The genius is bright.

The proprietors of the street shops had just ordered their clerks to open the doors.

There has been a buzz in the market.

Those who deliver water, those who deliver goods, those who butcher pigs, and those who sell fish clatter into the city pushing their carts.

At this time, these peddlers found that many people had already appeared in the streets and alleys.

They were all men in red uniforms.

And
Everyone has muskets with bayonets in their hands!
Don't know where they came from.

Formed in an outrageously neat queue on the street.

The soldiers looked serious.

at the forefront.

A sun and moon flag symbolizing the Ming Dynasty fluttered in the wind.

"The emperor has decreed that the entire province of Sichuan is under martial law and all gatherings are prohibited!"

"Now I declare martial law"

An officer shouted orders.

soon.

The streets, large and small, were controlled by soldiers of the Ming army.

They are all soldiers from the first brigade and the second brigade.

It was the army that Emperor Zhu started from.

They don't need any mobilization at all, they can faithfully fulfill all orders.

"They are going to the Gongyuan!"

These Chengdu local shopkeepers and guys who had just opened their doors to do business stared dumbfounded at these murderous Ming army soldiers.

I have already begun to imagine the tragic situation of those scholars in the Gongyuan in my mind.

"It's over, it's over, the emperor is going to use his sword and gun, these scholars are really, can they say what the emperor's family will take the exam?"

"Emperor Lao Tzu said that he can take whatever exam he wants to take. Now it's over, I'm going to cut my brain!"

"Oh, these soldiers are real. Whoever bumps into their guns will definitely end badly!"

Soldiers armed with live ammunition swaggered through the streets, with a clear goal, which was to go to the Gongyuan.

"Zongzhen, I think those Sichuan scholars are very fierce, I'm afraid it's not easy to scare them?"

On the city wall of Chengdu, Luo Dingshan, who was leaning on the battlements, couldn't help but sneered when he heard Zeng Ada's doubts beside him.

"You think I'm really just scaring them?"

"Isn't it? You can really attack this group of scholars."

"It's impossible to start, but it's still possible to catch a few typical examples." Luo Dingshan said.

"But I don't think this group of people can fight the emperor to the end."

Luo Dingshan knew that these people were just young people.

The key is to fool those people behind their backs.
Tatata!
The sound of neat footsteps resounded on the streets of Chengdu.

The Chengdu Gongyuan has become a protest base for Sichuan scholars.

Many of them brought bedding and slept here.

Various slogans were plastered all over the walls, making preparations for a protracted battle.

But when they found that Emperor Zhu's army butcher knife had been raised, everyone was terrified.

All kinds of crying voices rang out.

"It's over, it's over, what's the trouble, what the emperor wants to test is what, now I'm going to chop off my head"

"Master Guan has nothing to do, he has to sit in the classroom."
