My surname is Wang, my neighbor Wu Dalang

Chapter 459 Don't think I'm easy to deceive!
The former Song Jiade Emperor Ji Fadeng's hearing of the drum still caused a lot of trouble.

At the court meeting the next day, as expected by Wang Lin, there was almost a lot of enthusiasm.

The impeachment of Hua Rongzong's clansmen for murder, and the overwhelming number of court and Chinese officials who privately handed over the imperial court's military positions.

Of course, when these civil servants impeached Huarong, the implication was also obvious, asking the emperor to treat the former Song clan well, and they could follow the example of Zhao Kuangyin and set up a monument to pledge to rule the world with the scholar-bureaucrats.

The situation suddenly developed to this point. Originally, the Central Committee intended to dismiss Han Ting's military aircraft department minister at today's meeting, but Li Gang and others felt that they could not open their mouths.

As ministers, they really can't make trouble at this juncture.

After all, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this matter is not easy.

Zeng Wei, as the consort of the former Song Dynasty, was actually beaten to death in the military camp. If it wasn't for someone who wanted to control him, how could a small Huatong, who was the capital of the army, be able to have such a great ability?

As for hanging Zeng Wei's body in the Song Dynasty's ancestral temple?

What these people want, even Li Gang can see through it at a glance.

Using Zeng Wei's death to coerce the emperor to publicly make a promise not to kill the former Song Dynasty royal family?Just like what Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin did to the Later Zhou clan.

The stele that Zhao Kuangyin neutralized in the ancestral temple is still in the ancestral temple.

The first article on this stone tablet is: "The descendants of the Chai family are guilty and shall not be punished further. If they commit treason, they will be punished in prison. They shall not be punished by the court, and they shall not even sit on their relatives."

But Li Gang did not forget that there is a second item on this stele.

"Do not kill scholar-bureaucrats and those who write letters."

In the final analysis, this is the root cause of the emperor of the Song Dynasty and the scholar-bureaucrats ruling the world together.

It can be seen from this that today's turbulent public sentiment is probably not to discuss an explanation for Zeng Kui, but is based on the overall interests of the scholar-bureaucrat class.

The reborn Great Yan Dynasty continued the previous national policy of generously supporting scholars.

What Li Gang and Wu Min have seen through, how could Wang Lin not know?

Li Gang looked up and saw the emperor Wang Lin sitting on the dragon chair with a serious expression, showing no signs of happiness or anger.

They didn't know that Wang Lin was thinking about another thing at the moment.

He was a little disappointed that at the beginning of the founding of the country, the Shenwu Army degenerated so quickly.

It is not difficult to understand when you think about it, this army is completely different from the Fuhu Army, and their predecessors have a very complicated composition.

There are both the original Beijing Imperial Army, the Nanjing Imperial Army, and the newly recruited personnel, which are different in essence from the Eastern Army created by Wang Lin.

No matter how strict Hua Rong is in governing the army, it is difficult to avoid a few black apples in the army.

The most urgent thing at the moment is to purge this forbidden army, otherwise, if he leads the army to conquer himself, and the capital is handed over to such a corrupt soldier, it will undoubtedly be a future trouble.

Staring at the anger of the officials in the hall, Wang Lin couldn't help laughing.

He finally understood that this was the result of Song Dynasty's hundreds of years of nurturing scholars.

Civil servants ravaged the court, and people like Li Gang who took care of the overall situation were not too many but too few.

The formation of this situation has deep roots and hundreds of years of accumulation, and it cannot be changed by a new emperor.

He originally wanted to take it slowly, for the stability of the imperial power.

But now it seems that he doesn't have much energy and time to spend on this kind of unnecessary involution.

Of course, it doesn't mean that these civil servants in the court are traitors.

They are just trying to guide the emperor and Dayan imperial power in the direction they want to see, and safeguard the interests of the entire huge class of scholar-bureaucrats.

They are not one person, but a huge group.

Their foundation is etiquette.

It is a misinterpretation of the sage words of Confucius.

It is a class value that has been formed for hundreds or even thousands of years that scholar-bureaucrats are superior to others.

After Wang Lin replaced the Song Dynasty, his methods were gentle, which may have given the courtiers the illusion.

With an indifferent smile on the corner of Wang Lin's mouth, he slowly got up and said, "What you Ai Qing said is very true, I deeply believe it.

Huarong's lax rule of the army, conniving the tribe to do evil in the army, his crime cannot be escaped.

According to my decree, Hua Rong will be fined for one year, with a staff of thirty, and ordered to preside over Zeng Kui's funeral, and kneel down in front of Zeng Kui's spirit to apologize for his sins for three days.

The people of his clan were all flower-passed, and their heads were sacrificed to Zeng Wei.

All the 26 people who participated in the fight from the thieves that day were all sentenced to death and their families were lost.

After investigation by Jin Yiwei, the Shenwu Army killed 189 people from the deputy general Zheng Jian down to Caishikou for those who harmed the capital, bullied men and women, and violated the laws of Dayan.

From now on, anyone who fails to abide by the military laws of the Beijing camp will be severely punished and killed without mercy! "

As soon as Wang Lin said this, the courtiers fell silent.

The murderous intent is too heavy, isn't this going to kill a person in the capital?
Immediately afterwards, Wang Lin asked again: "Where is the commander of Jin Yiwei?"

Yan Qing bowed out of the class and said: "The minister is here!"

"Zeng Wei's body was hung in the former Song Dynasty Temple, I will give you three days to find out the culprit behind it.

This person incited the soldiers to commit chaos, which was related to the dignity of the former Song Dynasty clan and I, and his intentions were sinister.I have something to say here, no matter who is involved, I will destroy the whole family as an example to others! "

All the ministers were cold when they heard this.

At today's court meeting, the emperor in front of him seemed to have really revealed his ferocious true colors. He was not a master who was easy to talk and could be bullied.

"I wish to posthumously confer Zeng Yu the Duke of the country... I accept Zeng Yu and Zeng Shuang, daughter of Emperor Jiade's concubine, as righteous daughters, and canonize her as Princess Ningde, and I will raise her up.

As for what you dear ministers said - I can tell you:

Scholars and scholar-bureaucrats are the source of the country, and I am also a great master of Confucianism.The promotion of the imperial examination is still the foundation of the promotion of the country.

I am determined to announce to the world from today that all imperial or local government officials who are officials must pass the imperial examination to be eligible.And even the various ministries of the imperial court or local officials still need to be recruited according to the scriptures.As the saying goes: Anyone who eats the imperial salary must take the exam every time he enters.It is best to give and receive privately from the imperial court.

But whether it is the imperial court, Zhen, or scholar-bureaucrats, they all need support from the people.

Mencius said: The people are the most important, the country is second, and the king is the least.The emperor is still lighter than the people, let alone a scholar-bureaucrat? !
The so-called people can carry a boat, but they can also overturn it.

Therefore, I am different from Zhao Kuangyin, Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty. I should rule the world with all people, and the royal family, clan, dignitaries, and courtiers are all scholars and bureaucrats, or farmers, merchants, and traffickers are all one of the people.

I know that scholar-bureaucrats enjoy the privilege of shepherding the people on behalf of the heavens, which has been deeply rooted for hundreds of thousands of years.

I have no intention of touching the interests of the scholar-official class, and I don't even bother to touch your privileges.But please understand that existence is not necessarily reasonable.

One day, when all the people wake up, even if I don't move you, there will be people who will rise up and want to kill you!
Therefore, I have a frank meeting with the officials today. You don't have to worry about what new policies I will implement. At this stage, maintaining the status quo, strengthening the national strength, and resisting foreign enemies are the top priorities.

But please don't think that I am easy to deceive.

The difference between me and the emperors of all dynasties is that I can see farther.

I can go further.

Therefore, from now on, I don't want to see this scene again. Those who coerce me with the general situation and threaten me will bear the consequences at their own risk. Don't blame me for not predicting what I said.

I will not make any covenant with the scholar-officials to rule the world together. I don't want to see the emphasis on culture over military, and I don't want to see the emphasis on martial arts over culture.

In three days, I will personally march to Hebei in my own hands.

Tomorrow, the East Palace will be established by the central hub.

I hereby swear to all my ministers that if I don’t return to Yanyun’s old place in this life, and if I don’t open up territories for Great Yan, I will never return to Beijing. "

……

After the dynasty was dispersed, dozens of people including Huatong were beheaded in public.

And at the memorial archway outside the palace, Hua Rong's upper body was naked, and was punished by Jin Yiwei for thirty, bloody and bloody, and was carried away by Hua Rong's relatives on a soft couch.

This surprised the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, who did not expect the emperor to be serious.

After a meeting, Hua Rong, who hastily treated his injuries, insisted on appearing at Zeng Wei's funeral.

At the same time, Jin Yiwei's purge and investigation in the Shenwu Army has also come to an end. More than 100 generals and ordinary soldiers with notorious deeds have been brought to justice by Jin Yiwei. punishment.

This is Wang Lin's first massacre since he ascended the throne.

This made the ruling and opposition parties suddenly realize that this new monarch is not a good stubble at all.

Zhao Ji's eighth son, Zhao Yu, who was almost implicated, was so frightened that he knelt in front of the palace to plead guilty, and was immediately taken back to the deep palace by Jin Yiwei to study behind closed doors.

And shortly afterwards, the instigators of this incident, Zhang Chun, the right servant of the Ministry of Industry, and Gong Yue, the young minister of Dali Temple, were found guilty by a judge.

In the end, Wang Lin gave the Minister of the Central Hub some face, instead of destroying Zhang Chun and Gong Yue's family and ransacking their homes, he only killed the chief culprit and exiled the whole family.

Wang Lin quickly suppressed the turmoil with strong means, and also suppressed all kinds of ghosts harbored by the courtiers back to their original form.

Of course, although the emperor did not publicly express his desire to rule the world with the scholar-bureaucrats, and reaffirmed the political interests of the scholar-bureaucrat class in terms of legal principles, he also made it clear that he would not touch the interests of this class, which showed that the emperor would not completely overthrow the Song system.

Some things get defaulted and carried over.

But it is obvious that the era of emphasizing civility over martial arts is definitely gone forever.

Moreover, Wang Lin also proposed a concept of "every entry must be tested".This made the courtiers suddenly realize that the emperor's move was actually to protect and solidify the interests of scholars.

How do they know that the imperial examination is a relatively fair way to get promoted.

The college entrance examination in later generations is a replica of the imperial examination.

For the poor family's children, if they lost this promotion channel, it might be really over.

That's really class solidification.The privileged class has been passed down from generation to generation, and the people at the bottom will always be squeezed pigs and dogs.

Only when social mobility is banned is there really going to be a big mess.

For a while, the court was much more stable.

In the next two days, the crown prince will be registered, the edict will be issued, and the wedding ceremony between Yan Qing and Li Lan will be attended. After completing these, Wang Lin will leave Tokyo for Hebei.

Royal expedition.

The rear must be secure.
