General Constitution of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 21 All loyal ministers
As soon as Ning Jue's words fell, those upright and loyal people who had threatened to "fight to the death for righteousness" just now fell silent.

They came to give advice, and the biggest psychological preparation they made was to be dragged out and beaten with two sticks.

The Dengwen Drum itself is big. According to the old system of the Taizu Dynasty, the Dengwen Drum after the capital was moved was also placed under the left gate of Chang'an.

As soon as the drums sounded, the sound shook the capital and disturbed the harem, and it was tantamount to kidnapping the emperor with the ancestral precepts and forcing the emperor to come out to meet him.

No one expected that Ning Jue would directly knock on Deng Wengu. Who knows if that Xiyuan guy is angry about getting up, even if he doesn't make trouble today because of face, who can guarantee that he won't make trouble in the future?
"Are you knocking or not?!"

Ning Jue stared at each other, and the officials immediately fell silent.

"Still let go?!"

A man with white beard and hair exuded a little light of wisdom from his eyes, and his neck was straightened.

"Who said not to knock?!"

Gao Zhong, who had stopped these officials at Chengtian Gate, hadn't had time to react.

Then he rushed to the Dengwen Drum in front of Chang'an's left gate, picked up the half-foot-thick drumstick and swung it straight up.

"Boom!"

As the Dengwen drum was sounded, the opening of the left gate of Chang'an seemed to be a loudspeaker for the Dengwen drum.

This is real sonic rubble!
Ning Jue could clearly see that the gravel on the ground was trembling slightly.

Then Gao Zhong knocked Shishizhong more than a dozen times, and Gao Zhong, who was almost deaf from the shock, rushed to Shizhong in a hurry.

"Wu remonstrates, don't knock anymore, Junfu can hear you, you can hear me!"

Gishizhong, who was pulled away by Gao Zhong, gave up.

"Ning Jue, don't think that you are not afraid of death if you are the only one! I have knocked!"

The man surnamed Wu walked towards Ning Jue with a drumstick in hand.

"It's your turn!"

Ning Jue took the drumstick, and even though he wanted to walk towards Dengwen Drum, he didn't wait for Ning Jue to walk in front of the drum.

Seeing Ning Jue's firm appearance, Gao Zhong couldn't help but sighed.

"Ning Bingxian, this, why bother?"

Early in the morning, two speech officials came to the gate of the palace to beat the Dengwen drum, and the two sides even competed.

In Gao Zhong's eyes, this is not purely a competition between the two of them to slap Jun's father, and whoever dares to smack is cowardly?

Confused, too confused.

Ning Jue didn't take it seriously, selfishly, he just wanted to die quickly, and if he angered Jiajing, he would be angered too.

Yu Gong, the more organized this group of people jumps out, the more it shows the horror of the forces behind it.

The world and Great Ming all need such a person who is not afraid of death to stand up.

Those bottles and cans that you are reluctant to part with will eventually be taken by others.

Ning Jue held his breath, tightly clenched the drumstick in his hand, looked at the Dengwen drum in front of him, and immediately raised the drumstick in his hand.

Suddenly, there was a sound of horseshoes in the imperial city.

"Appreciate~"

Before Ning Jue's drumstick fell, he saw a white-faced, beardless, pot-bellied eunuch galloping towards him.

Seeing Ning Jue standing under Dengwen's drum, he immediately yelled, "Stop! Stop knocking!"

"Dengwen drums are still played several times?!"

When Gao Zhong saw the person coming, it was as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.

"Godfather, you are here, my son is really overwhelmed."

Panting heavily, Huang Jin pointed at Ning Jue and said dumbfoundedly: "Ning Bingxian! Why are you beating Dengwen drums endlessly? Father Jun heard it!"

Ning Jue said indifferently: "It was not Ning who played the drum just now, but this drum was played by his surname Wu, why can't Ning play it?"

Huang Jin looked at Ning Jue in a daze.

"Who played the drum just now?"

As soon as Huang Jin finished speaking, everyone looked at the Wu surname in unison.

That Wu Ge also said with a stern neck during the incident: "Eunuch Huang, I knocked it down!"

Huang Jin looked at Wu Jishi, dumbfounded, nodded and held out his thumb.

"Okay! You are worthy of being a hero of my Ming Dynasty!"

"Your father has an order, just now to disturb the holy charioteer, submit the confession, and enter the palace with a staff of twenty, and the rest will immediately go to the Xiyuan to face the admonition."

After reading the oral order, Huang Jin stared at Gao Zhong beside him.

"Gao Zhong, what are you doing in a daze, you kicked him out!"

Only then did Gao Zhong come to his senses, he always felt that something was missing, and immediately waved his hand, and the two Dongchang fans immediately walked towards the person surnamed Wu, and Ning Jue also stuffed the drumstick casually Back on the drum stand.

There was a sound of "Dang" and a muffled sound of the drumstick returning to its place.

When the person in charge of the incident finally realized it, Ning Jue was already at the back of the line waiting to enter the palace.

"Ning Jue! You knocked!"

Beat the Dengwen drum?

What am I drawing?
Twenty sticks?
I came here for the death penalty, not for the beating!

"Knock it! Despicable villain!"

"Snapped!"

"Hi~!"

The officials around who were about to line up to write a letter to the palace all looked at Ning Jue contemptuously.

"Worthy of being a treacherous sycophant, to be so cheeky!"

"Bah! How can you stand still!"

Ning Jue didn't take it seriously, and he didn't come here to gain fame, so what do you think? !

Huang Jin wiped the sweat from his forehead, and immediately led the admonisher and Ning Jue towards Xiyuan.

Jiajing, who must have been woken up just now, has a bad temper. Huang Jin rode directly from the Sheji Altar and took a shortcut. Now that he enters the palace, he can't go through the Sheji Altar. Turn west at the Meridian Gate, go right through the Wuying Hall, and exit Xihua After walking through the gate for nearly half an hour, they finally arrived at Xiyuan.

Huang Jin didn't report, but led the crowd directly into the palace.

"My lord, everyone has arrived."

Huang Jin said softly to the inside of the monastery.

And soon Jiajing's voice sounded in the jingshe.

It's just that Jiajing's tone didn't seem to be too sullen.

"There's no need to salute. Why did you break into the palace early in the morning?"

The officials at Ning Jue's side said in unison: "The minister and others jointly named the Jiangnan Road Inspector of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Ning Jue, and Zhu Xizhong, the Duke of Cheng, to privately accept it!"

Even though Jingshe turned inward, there was a sneer.

"Are they all here for Shen Ningjue?"

"No!"

"Chen Ningjue has something important to play!"

Hearing Ning Jue's voice, Jiajing in the hall was obviously taken aback.

After a long time, Jiajing's surprised voice came again from the jingshe.

"You guys came together?"

"Your Majesty, the minister came early!"

"I waited at Chengtian Gate before dawn."

Hearing the remonstrance of these officials, Jiajing didn't answer.

"Present Ning Jue's melody first."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of those officials suddenly changed.

"Your Majesty, human relations are orderly, first come first, first come first, minister wait..."

"Do you want to resist the decree?"

With Jiajing's light words, the dozen or so speakers immediately fell silent.

"The minister waits for ten thousand deaths."

After a long time, Jiajing's slightly tired voice came from the abode.

"Forget it, I generally know."

Jiajing walked out of the abode slowly, looked at the judges beside Ning Jue and said with a smile: "You want to convict Ning Jue?"

"Yes."

"Ning Jue, do you think that there are people in this world who want to harm me and alienate me from my family?"

"Yes."

Jiajing breathed a sigh of relief, and said leisurely: "It's just a misunderstanding, they are all loyal ministers, there are no treacherous ministers."

Ning Jue was completely stunned.

Misunderstand?

What is your top understanding? !

Ning Jue finally understood why these people dared to be so unscrupulous.

Even if you have this attitude, I'm still kidding myself!
