Domineering Daming

Zhu Xu raised his head, looked at the Dali Temple which was close at hand, stopped in his tracks, and said: "My Daming was reborn from the ashes, the filth must be cleaned up, Qian Qianyi is not alone, and the law must be strictly enforced in the future. The Governor’s Council, Dali Temple, and the Ministry of Punishment all have to take responsibility, and the muddled things before the apocalypse can’t happen again…”

"I obey the order." Zhang Wenda said without changing his expression.

Zhu Xu didn't say anything, and walked forward until he was not far from Dali Temple.

The gate of Dali Temple was half open, and people came in and out, most of them were ordinary people, and there were some officials who looked like rich people.

There are [-] halls in Dali Temple, and there are cases every day. Many people are dissatisfied with the judgment of Dali Temple.

Zhang Wenda watched with unnatural awkwardness in his heart, and frowned slightly.The strength of Dali Temple not only changed ordinary people, but also had a major impact on the court situation, which made many people uncomfortable and even unacceptable.

Not long after, the judgment document of Dali Temple was posted on the huge bulletin board outside, and a group of people regardless of age swarmed past.

"Master Qian has been sentenced to 30 years in prison and will never be hired!"

"Doesn't this mean that Mr. Qian has no chance to be an official anymore?"

"Isn't this sentence too harsh?"

"The imperial court is killing chickens and scaring monkeys. Nanzhili must blow up nests..."

Zhang Wenda and Zhu Xu were standing not far away, able to hear the discussions there clearly, Zhang Wenda raised his hand and said to Zhu Xu: "The cabinet has convened six ministries for discussion before, and has issued an order to the governor of Jiangsu. The yamen and other institutions will suppress all those who are restless and ensure that the imperial court's goal of purging the persecution is carried out!"

Zhu Xu stood up and said: "Well, next year you will go to Nanzhili in person, not only officials, but also some famous teachers and scholars, and academies of various schools. We must have a clear understanding of some bad governance!"

"Observe the decree! The minister will leave." Zhang Wenda raised his hand and said.

Zhu Xu said "hmm", and seeing the increasingly lively scene in front of Dali Temple, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said to himself: "This year's affairs are considered to be over, and we can relax for a while..."

Cao Huachun was by Zhu Xu's side, his face slightly relaxed.

This year has been full of turmoil, and I have walked around outside Beijing, and now it has finally come to an end.

Wang Yizhou and the others were dressed in casual clothes, kept a little distance away, and quietly watched everything around them.

Less than 50 meters away, Liu Rushi stood there, quietly looking at Zhu Xu with his hands behind his back.

Su Xi looked at Zhu Xu from a distance, took a closer look, and said in a low voice: "Miss, is he the one you are looking for?"

Liu Rushi nodded slightly, she really wanted to take a step, but her legs couldn't move, she just looked straight at Zhu Xu.

Chapter 910 Greed

Zhu Xu stood in front of Dali Temple, watching and listening, and after a while, secretly shook his head.

In the discussion, the polarization is obvious. Ordinary people curse endlessly. This is their instinctive hatred for corrupt officials, and they can curse from the bottom of their hearts almost at any time.

The second type is people with a little status and above. They think that being greedy for money and marrying a prostitute is nothing. If the court makes a fuss and is not tolerant, it will backfire.

Zhu Xu looked at the growing crowd in front of Dali Temple, and said to Cao Huachun, "Have you seen that? The common people's demands are actually not high, but those who are rich and powerful demand a lot, demand more, and are a little restrained." They were dissatisfied, couldn't bear it, and started making noise..."

Cao Huachun stood beside Zhu Xu, and said silently for a while: "It is easy to go from poverty to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. This is probably the reason."

"Inaccurate."

Zhu Xu stood up and said: "This is caused by the greed of the human heart. If you have a little, you want more, and more, and you will never be satisfied. If you don't impose strict restrictions early and draw the red line clearly, Cooperate with guillotine deterrence, otherwise no one will stop, it will only intensify, constantly rushing to the bottom line, and finally, like ants, it will eat up this country completely..."

Cao Huachun understood what Zhu Xu meant, and said softly, "Man dies for wealth, birds die for food, and don't care about anything else."

Zhu Xu glanced at him and said: "This is a bit close, so Gang Ji is the most important thing. If you don't punish severely the first time, there will be a second time, and a third time, endlessly, more and more excessive, until It’s hard to get back under the weight, and I collapsed. My Ming Dynasty has been corrupted to such an extent that some people have no idea what Gangji is, where the bottom line is, and have forgotten their original intentions. They only know that they are fighting for power and profit in the court.

Cao Huachun felt that Zhu Xu was a little emotional, his expression moved slightly, and he said cooperatively: "Your Majesty, with Qian Qianyi's sentence, the Donglin Party will no longer be able to revive. Even after a hundred years, there will be no old debts to settle, so there is no need to worry."

The civil official group is the group of people who hold grudges the most and are the most capable of settling accounts after the fall. Today they bowed their heads. It won't be long before they will try their best to reverse the case, whitewash their past to be pure, clean, bright, and upright, and then continue, going back and forth repeatedly, Shatter all rules and regulations to pieces.

A vivid example is Emperor Taizong. Now more and more people have accepted or are used to calling him Chengzu, and there are many people who reversed the case for Jianwen. Although Jianwen has been reversed, there are still many People feel that it is not thorough enough, and they want to nail Zhu Di to death!

Zhu Xu has done so much, and there are too many flaws. If one day there are "everyone" who have a different view on this period of history, as long as they piece together casually, he can be classified as a "faint lord", and then all kinds of Words add body, "mean and ungrateful", "narrow-minded", "bloodthirsty", "faint", "conspirator", etc., as long as they are negative words, they can almost fall on him. After that, he will never stand up !

If someone brings the rhythm again, I am afraid that Zhu Xu's temple name and posthumous title will be changed again, becoming like Zhu Di, with mixed reputation and reputation, and becoming a "taboo" vocabulary-everyone knows, just don't ask, don't ask, Don't argue, let time kill it.

If Zhu Xu is denied, then what Donglin and other cronies are doing is right. With this excuse, they can do whatever they want, even more unscrupulous!

Zhu Xu has never cared about the affairs behind him. The so-called "eternal merits have their own comments by future generations", which is a kind of helplessness in itself. If you can't stop other people's thoughts in this world, how can future generations control them?

The most important thing is to live right now, do what you think and do what you can to the best, and leave no legacy. As for the others, it is really "let future generations comment".

"Let's go back."

Zhu Xu let go of his hands and moved a little bit.He stayed up all night last night, and now he is going to take a nap for a while.

Cao Huachun nodded, just as he was about to greet the carriage, Wang Yizhou stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, there are two women who have been watching you."

Zhu Xu was startled, turned his head to look, and saw two pretty women in white clothes standing not far away, looking at him neither far nor near, but because they were wearing hoods, they couldn't see their real faces clearly.He looked at it with a questioning meaning.

Liu Rushi also saw Zhu Xu's gaze. This familiar yet unfamiliar face reappeared, and she felt a little daunted.

Su Xi looked at Zhu Xu, then looked at Liu Rushi, thinking that this person is young, he is also a clan member, a close friend of the emperor, and he is much better than Qian Qianyi.

Her gaze moved slightly, she bit her lip lightly, stretched out her hand, and pushed behind Liu Rushi.

Liu Rushi was caught off guard, and took a staggered step forward, with a confused expression, and turned to look at Su Xi.

Su Xi stepped forward and whispered in Liu Rushi's ear: "Miss, I can't miss it anymore, otherwise I don't know when we will see you next time."

Liu Rushi looked at her, then turned her head to look at Zhu Xu, her eyes suddenly fixed, a stiff smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she walked forward.

When the two approached, the guard beside Zhu Xu quietly stepped forward, touching the weapon on his body.

Zhu Xu looked at the two curiously, comparing their acquaintances in their hearts.

"Brother Zhu." Before approaching, Liu Rushi took off his cloak and said softly.

Speaking of which, there are really only a handful of women named Zhu Xu "Brother Zhu". When he heard the voice again, he immediately remembered it. He gestured calmly and said with a smile: "So it's Miss Liu."

The imperial guards didn't dare to be careless, they stopped in their tracks, still staring at them.

Liu Rushi noticed it, didn't care, and had a reserved smile on his face, heaving a sigh of relief, walked over in a panic and said, "It's really a coincidence to meet Brother Zhu here."

Zhu Xu turned his head to look at the Dali Temple not far away, then looked at Liu Rushi, smiled even more, and said, "This is also a major event in Beijing, come and see for yourself, Miss Liu must have come to rescue this Mr. Qian’s, right?”

Su Xi was nervous when he heard the words, and when he was about to explain, Liu Rushi said: "Brother Zhu misunderstood, the younger sister came to Beijing, and I want to ask Brother Zhu for advice on some things."

For this strange woman, Zhu Xu still had a good impression of him, and he didn't mind chatting with her, so he smiled and said, "What does Miss Liu want to ask?"

The noise near Dali Temple suddenly increased, and many people started to fight, and many people scattered in all directions, making the sky noisy.
