At the beginning of the civil castle, the Ming God of War was a little panicked

Chapter 229

In Wenyuan Pavilion, Yu Qian was writing hard, Zhang Yi opened the door and walked in.

"Ting Yi, why are you still writing?"

Yu Qian said without raising his head: "The new policy involves all aspects. If it is not considered carefully in the early stage, it will be difficult to carry it out."

Zhang Yi couldn't care about the new policy anymore, he pulled Yu Qian and said, "The Yansheng case is about to be finalized. The emperor has just issued a decree. The cabinet and all the officials will watch the trial. Come with me!"

"Don't go!"

Yu Qian answered cleanly, as if he had no interest in this case.

Zhang Yi was puzzled, "Don't you want to know the result of the interrogation?"

Yu Qian snorted softly and said, "Yan Shenggong is finished, no one can save him!"

"What did you say?"

Zhang Yi frowned and asked, "Ting Yi, you are also a scholar, why are you so ignorant?"

"The one who doesn't understand is Yan Shenggong. Relying on the favor of the ancestors, the Kong family has enjoyed the state's grace for generations. It's fine to do evil on weekdays. Now they want to fight against the emperor. Isn't this asking for death?"

"You... how do you say that?"

Only then did Yu Qian raise his head, and said: "I saw with my own eyes how the Kong family did it in Yuxian County. If the emperor didn't care, I wouldn't be able to stand it!"

Zhang Yi was puzzled and said: "What happened? As far as I know, Yu County is not educated, and the school teaches all kinds of messy things, and even cooperates with merchants. , in order to correct the prestige and evil spirit of Yu County, from what you said, it seems that there is another truth?"

"What you said about Yu County cooperating with merchants and teaching some messy things is true, but it's not accurate enough."

Yu Qian put down the pen in his hand, and then told all about what he saw and heard in Yu County, until the Kong family appeared, the emperor couldn't bear it, and then sent Jin Yiwei to take him back to the capital.

During this period of time, Zhang Yi had always thought that Jin Yiwei and the Kong family could not get along, or that the emperor would take action against the Kong family in order to implement the New Deal.

Now after listening to Yu Qian's narration, I realize that it doesn't seem to be that simple.

Yu Qian never lied, nor did he bother to lie. From this point of view... Is it really the Kong family's fault first?

What shocked him even more was that the number of schools and children enrolled in Yu County, even if the rest of the counties in Datong Prefecture were added up, would be far behind.

"Ting Yi, tell me the truth, isn't the New Deal really against scholars?"

Yu Qian shook his head and said: "I have stayed in Yu County for two months, and the New Deal is by no means that simple. Many of the emperor's ideas are much better than mine. If we are still conservative and incomplete, and do not want to make progress, even if the New Deal If we don’t, sooner or later, we will be abandoned by the world.”

Zhang Yi thought about it for a long time after listening to it. Although he still couldn't understand it for a short time, he seemed very powerful.

After Yu Qian finished speaking, he picked up his pen and lowered his head again.

"Don't worry, the emperor's wisdom is beyond our imagination. This time, Yan Shenggong is absolutely finished!"

Zhang Yisi thought for a while, and then asked: "You really don't want to go and see?"

"No, I'm still busy!"

Zhang Yi had no choice but to leave Wenyuan Pavilion with question marks on his head, and walked towards the Meridian Gate.

At this time, the arrangement outside the Meridian Gate has been completed.

A long table and three chairs were placed in the presiding judge's position, reserved for the three judges.

There are more than a dozen chairs placed in the viewing position, Zhu Qizhen sits in the center, Zhu Qiyu, Cao Nai and others sit on the two sides, all officials who come to watch the trial are seated according to the size of their official positions, and some officials with small official positions are naturally not qualified , stood behind.

When the people in the capital got the news, they all came in less than an hour.

Since ancient times, no matter what dynasty, no matter what the living conditions are, the fine tradition of eating or not and loving to join in the fun cannot be lost!

On the presiding judge's stand, the three big bosses, Yu Shiyue, Shangshu of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Xue Xuan, Minister of Dali Temple, and Yang Shan, the Yushi of Zuodu, were once again pushed to the forefront.

To some extent, the three of them were quite worried.

Especially Yu Shiyue, who is the secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, naturally knows what he is doing.

He thought that the emperor's behavior during this period was very unreasonable, and he frequently ransacked his family and exterminated his family. This is what the Taizu emperor would do. Although he didn't say it clearly, he secretly scolded the tyrant for his actions.

You can copy others today, but you can't guarantee that you won't copy yourself tomorrow.

Even if I can protect myself wisely, what about my descendants?
Since the emperor wants to implement the New Deal, he wants to eliminate the power of the civil servants before. Could it be said that after working hard all his life, his children and grandchildren can't even enjoy a little favor?

Not to mention how many people have followed him to heaven over the years, and these people have already formed a community of interests. They benefit from themselves, and they also rely on these wings to stabilize their position in the court.

Affected by the Jiangnan smuggling case, several people have already been imprisoned. Seeing that the power behind him is getting worse day by day, in this situation, if he doesn’t stand up to support everyone, these people will be dissatisfied and alienated. It's just an empty title.

In the early court, he had already torn face with the emperor, and now he had no choice.

In today's battle, it will be a matter of life and death!
Therefore, taking advantage of the fact that the temporary execution ground had not yet been set up, he took the time to go back home, called his son to him, and said: "Today's case will directly affect the future of my Yu family. There is no turning back when you open the bow, you should be more peaceful at home and serve your mother well."

"Father... why did you say that?"

Seeing her son's worried look, Yu Shiyue comforted her and said, "It's just an explanation. Although the father knows that the matter is not so serious, at least we must take precautions before it happens. Don't worry, if something happens to the father today, it doesn't matter. , because, after reaching that stage, being a father has become famous all over the world, and by then, you children and grandchildren can at least get some credit!"

Yu Shiyue's talk about being glamorous is actually not a joke at all.

If a scholar-bureaucrat is held accountable by the court for defending the interests of scholars in the world, dismissed from his official position, or even lost his life, he will definitely be respected by the people of the world.

Think about it, in the future, when your descendants report your name, there will be countless high-ranking people vying to serve them, and people in later generations will build archways for you and publicize your achievements everywhere. , it is more than simple as wealth, it is simply the golden rice bowl for future generations.

"Actually, you don't have to worry. In my father's life, I will not be greedy or take possession. Even if Jin Yiwei comes, nothing will be found. Just relax. Well, it's getting late, it's time for my father to go."

After all, he stood up slowly, with the look in his eyes as if he was going to die.
