Women's clothing in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 35 The Great Ceremony Continues

When Guo Xun walked to the teahouse, there was no sound inside. He was a little puzzled. Before he could ask, he heard a clear voice in front of him saying, "If you want to know what will happen next, let's listen to the next chapter to break it down!"

After a while, there was an uproar in the hall, and everyone was reluctant to give up and asked to continue.Guo Xun looked up, and saw a beautiful woman standing in front of the stage, and bowed to everyone helplessly: "Sorry, sorry, there will be a curfew soon, poor and young girls can only go back, and everyone will go back earlier Let's go home." Only then did everyone realize that it was getting dark outside.

Zhu Houcong's face was bright, and he looked at the previous storyteller slightly provocatively.Li Chengfeng couldn't help complaining in his heart: "It's not what you said, what are you showing off!"

But to his surprise, the storyteller looked excited, walked straight to the front, grabbed Li Chengfeng's hand and said, "Where did you hear this story from!"

Before Li Chengfeng could speak, Zhu Houcong stepped forward and knocked his salty pig's hand off, and gave him a hard look, with black air overflowing from his brows.The storyteller also knew that he had killed Meng Lang just now, so he quickly apologized.Li Chengfeng waved his hand: "It's okay, this story was written by a talented scholar in my hometown. I liked it, so I wrote it down."

"Then..." The storyteller hesitated, Li Chengfeng knew what he wanted, but they were going back soon, there were still a lot of things to do in the palace, and they really didn't have the energy to write this silently, so they could only shake their heads apologetically.

The storyteller's expression was gloomy, he thought about it, and tried to persuade him again, but finally saw that it was impossible, so he reluctantly sent the two of them off.

Zhu Houcong was in a good mood after winning the victory, Li Chengfeng secretly had no choice but to drag the little emperor back to the palace, but he was surrounded by a group of people after he left.

A man in brocade clothes with a fan stepped out from the crowd. He could be called handsome, but he seemed greasy.The man opened the folding fan, fanned it thoughtfully, and then opened his mouth and said: "I'm coming to Guo Xun, little lady, go slowly, take a step to talk."

Seeing the other party's appearance, Li Chengfeng's nervous heart gradually relaxed. He thought he was being assassinated, but he didn't expect that he was just a disciple.Looking at the way the other party shook the fan, I felt amused in my heart, it was already November, how could there be such a wicked gesture.

But in contrast to him, Zhu Houcong was indeed very angry. There was such a bold person under the emperor's feet, and he provoked himself!"What do you want to do?" said gloomily.

"Why don't you want to do it? The teahouse where the lady stayed before is owned by someone from me, Mr. Guo. I've also heard about what happened just now. It's a pity that I didn't witness the beauty of the lady with my own eyes. Why don't I formally hire you here? I am a storyteller in a teahouse, and my monthly salary is indispensable, how do you like it?"

"..." I thought I was teasing myself, but in the end I just wanted to hear the story.Li Chengfeng was amused in his heart, and his expression relaxed, he cupped his hands slightly, and said to Guo Xun: "Your kindness, my daughter, thank you in advance, but there are so many sundries in the house, I really can't spare time, I hope you find someone else."

Before Guo Xun could speak, the servant next to him angrily scolded: "I don't know how to praise you! Do you know who our young master is! Shameless! Young master, tie up this little girl now! Lock her up until she agrees."

"Then do you know who we are?" Li Chengfeng sneered, if it wasn't for the fact that the opposite party was a tough guy, he would have lost his temper early in the morning.

Guo Xun was refuted by others, and he was very angry if he couldn't get off the stage for a while, so he directly said to the people around him: "Why are you still standing there! Do it!" The guards rushed towards the two of them.

Li Chengfeng counted silently, there were four people in total, their footsteps were flimsy, he figured he could handle it, so he asked Zhu Houcong to stand still, and went forward alone, and beat them all up.

Guo Xun froze, he never thought that the fragile little girl in front of him was so powerful, he couldn't help but feel regretful, seeing the girl getting closer and closer with a cold face, she still insisted on shouting: "I am Guo Xun, the founding minister of the country. The sixth grandson of Ying, the current Marquis of Wu Ding! You dare to touch me! Our family will not let you go!"

Li Chengfeng and Zhu Houcong looked at each other, they couldn't help laughing.Seeing that they stopped talking, Guo Xun became proud again: "How about it! Be scared! If it wasn't for winning the bet with that bastard Yang Shen, the young master would come to you? You little girl would wake up laughing in her dreams. !"

"You mean...Yang Shen?" Zhu Houcong said, his face uncertain: "But that Yang Shen from the Imperial Academy?"

"Who else could it be if it wasn't him! That son of a bitch, his old man has gone home to take care of himself and is still so flamboyant, saying that the stories written by the young master are worthless! I'm going to convince him today!"

Li Chengfeng knew that the Yang Shen he was talking about was the son of the former chief assistant Yang Tinghe, the famous talented and champion Yang Sir.This person can be said to be the nightmare of Jiajing and Lu Bing. When giving lectures to them, he ignored all quotations and spoke so fast that not only Lu Bing couldn't keep up, but even Zhu Houcong found it difficult.He wanted to raise an opinion, but he got disdainful eyes from Mr. Yang, so he could only grit his teeth and persist.

Not only that, but after Zhu Houcong ordered his parents to change their honorific titles, this one can be said to have inherited his father's legacy and led the Imperial Academy to be the first to jump out to resist the decree. Every day a memorial, he almost pointed his nose and scolded the emperor.

Thinking about Yang Tinghe, and then thinking about his son, new and old hatreds welled up in his heart.With his hands behind his back, Zhu Houcong squinted at Guo Xun who was trembling next to him: "Tell me about your bet."

……

Yang Shen got up early today, had breakfast with his beloved wife, and then left in a hurry. Today he made a bet with that boy Guo Xun to see who had the right words.Thinking of this, Yang Shen smiled disdainfully, he didn't take this person seriously at all, but he couldn't understand his uneducated and arty virtues, his instinct broke out, and he planned to rub the opponent's spirit.

When they arrived at the appointed place, Guo Xun was waiting there early, and when he saw Yang Shen, he wanted to laugh at him.Yang Shen was still waiting for him to say something, but he heard a few coughs, turned around and saw a woman in plain clothes standing behind, with a somewhat helpless smile on her face.

Guo Xun immediately stopped talking, stood up respectfully and said something to the woman.Yang Shen was surprised, he had never seen this kid like this before, is that woman his sweetheart?After carefully looking at it, he thought strangely, he looks good, but his eyes are not very good, so he fell in love with this kind of idiot.

After a while, Guo Xun walked up to him and said to Yang Shen: "Look, the one behind me is my eldest sister's head, just wait until you lose your pants!" Only then did Yang Shen know that this was the helper Guo Xun had hired, and disdainful She curled her lips: "I'd like to take a look at the worthless things, how much of myself."

As a result of the competition, Yang Shen was naturally defeated.The main reason is that it is better than the script. Although Yang Dacai's writing is brilliant, and the story is ingeniously designed, it still has the limitations of the times. The judges below are ordinary people. Naturally, the exciting martial arts stories are better. attractive.

Yang Shen blushed and gave Guo Xun a hard look.Then he gritted his teeth and shouted three times: "Guo Xun is my real grandfather!" Then he turned and left in embarrassment.

Li Chengfeng was also speechless, he thought it was a real money bet, but he didn't expect it to be like this, a primary school student?Looking back, Guo Xun actually burst into tears.

"...What's the matter?" Li Chengfeng was puzzled.

Guo Xun sobbed: "For more than 20 years, Yang Shen and I have never dealt with him since we were born. In the past 20 years, I have never defeated him once. I have called that turtle grandson countless times. I didn't expect to finally hear him. Call me! Or Grandpa! I am enough!"

This Guo Xun is also pitiful. He has Yang Shen and other "other people's children" as a foil since he was a child.It made him want to provoke Yang Shen when he saw Yang Shen, but he was defeated repeatedly!

At this time, Guo Xun also knew the identities of Zhu and Li. Not only did the other party not care about his rudeness, but he even helped him defeat his old enemy, he couldn't help being very grateful.With a hot head, he rushed to Li Chengfeng: "Big sister! I'll be your sister for a day! I'll be your little brother from now on! Just tell me if you have anything to do!"

Li Chengfeng: "..." He bid farewell to those two idiots, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and returned to the palace to return to his life.

When Jiajing heard Yang Shen's defeat, he was also very happy, but his face sank in an instant.

It turns out that ever since he issued an imperial decree saying that he would change his honorary title, there has been chaos in the court day by day.Things were getting a little out of his control.

In November, the cabinet collectively stated that they agreed with the emperor's proposal, and there was room for discussion on this matter. Everyone sat down and talked slowly, but it was better not to show up.

I also want to know that this "busy people and others" refers to Zhang Cong.

The officials are also afraid of this kid, not to mention that he is familiar with etiquette, and he can always attack from an unexpected angle.The present said that this person is just a second-class Jinshi, a sixth-rank sesame official, or a member of the fake imperial court in Nanjing. The big bosses are either the number one scholar or the second best, first-rank officials, and have been officials for dozens of years. It is too embarrassing to argue with this kind of person Yes, if you win the quarrel or not, the other party will be famous all over the world.What's more, in this matter, the ministers actually don't take morals into account, because since ancient times, no emperor has had two fathers, so it is really wrong for them to do so.

So I planned to stabilize the little emperor first, and then make a long-term plan later.

At this time, although Zhu Houcong was smart, his mind was shallow, and his wish was very simple. One was to divert attention, and the other was to rectify the name of his parents. He was satisfied with these two points, so he happily planned to stop there.

As a result, Zhang Cong didn't know where he got the news, so he hurriedly said: Your Majesty!You are letting them lie!There is no long-term plan, if we persist, our side will definitely win, this is just the opponent's plan to delay the attack!Sober up!

Only then did Zhu Houcong realize it, yes!There is no room for negotiation on such a simple matter!These old fritters cheated me!

Zhu Houcong, who was tricked, was furious. He felt that his dignity as an emperor had been trampled on, so he insisted on calling Zhang Cong into the palace for discussion, and no one could stop him!

At this time, Yang Yiqing, the chief assistant of the cabinet, himself supported the emperor's recognition of his father, but his subordinates were full of diehards.Now that the emperor has made up his mind, he simply cooperates with the holy will and moves back and forth in the cabinet.Yang Tinghe is old, Jiang Mian, Mao Ji and others are leaderless, Fei Hong has a good temper, and the emperor's deeds after he ascended the throne, let them see the hope of Ming Zhongxing.

Their average age is about 70 years old. They are all old people from four dynasties. They have never seen anything. They are very broad-minded. Seeing the emperor like this, they are also worried about the relationship between the monarch and his ministers, so they no longer object.Let's admit it, Zuo Zuo himself has done his best, and he will be worthy of Emperor Hongzhi and the first emperor after returning home. The matter of their old Zhu's family will be resolved by the old Zhu's family.

Zhu Houcong keenly felt the softening of the cabinet's attitude, and slowly withdrew his thorns.In the recent period of getting along, he has also developed some feelings with the elders. Seeing that they are nearly seventy years old, their hair is gray, they sometimes need help when walking, and they often work overtime in the cabinet until late at night.I also know the character of this group of people, since the other party is submissive, let him forget it like this, let Zhang Cong come in, talk for a while, and decide on the names of his parents, this matter will be over.

The two sides are at peace, but some people don't think so.If you ask who it is, it is naturally our great talent——Yang Shen.

Yang Shen couldn't figure it out no matter what, why did his father resign, he was in good health but still wanted to do something for the country, he was so powerful in the court, why did he leave early?Seeing that the old cabinet ministers stopped fighting, Yang Shen gritted his teeth, don't go, he will go!

Yang Shen naturally hated Zhang Cong who slandered his father while his father was resigning from office, and Zhang Cong was an enemy general. The double hatred prompted Yang Shen to make a decision—he wanted to kill him. Zhang Cong!

That's right, our great talent Yang is well-educated, talented, and a descendant of an aristocratic family, with a personable demeanor.When something happened, the first reaction was to put on a sack!What's even more frightening is that none of the Hanlin scholars around him objected, and they all expressed that they wanted to do their part too!

It stands to reason that in Yang Shen's capacity, it would be very easy to hire someone to cover Zhang Cong's sack.But Yang Shen didn't want to, he just wanted to kill the national traitor in an upright manner in front of the emperor, civil and military officials.So he chose the location of the murder in an unexpected place - the imperial palace!

The Yang family has a long history of education, and by the time Yang Shen was sensible, Yang Tinghe had already become the chief assistant, under one person.Coupled with the doting of his mother and the flattery of the people around him, it is not an exaggeration for him to walk sideways in the capital. Even if he meets the royal relatives, family members and nobles, he must be courteous when he sees him. It is the shadow of childhood, people like this, later generations gave them a very appropriate name - □□.

As a leader in the game, Yang Shen himself is also very competitive. He has been famous for his knowledge and intelligence since he was a child.Li Dongyang, the leader of the literary world at that time, admired him very much. If he was not in poor health, he would have thought of accepting him as a closed disciple.Yang Tinghe also attached great importance to the education of his descendants, and the teachers he found for Yang Shen were all highly talented Confucian scholars.

Yang Shen, who was deeply influenced, became even more powerful when he grew up, and won the number one prize at a young age.At that time, Yang Tinghe was the chief assistant, but his son became the number one scholar. Many people in the government and the opposition expressed dissatisfaction. In addition, there were lawsuits about fraud in the imperial examination.Some people said that the examiner chose Yang Shen Jieyuan because of Yang Tinghe's pressure.

The chief examiner smiled and said nothing, and when Yang Shen became the champion and the article was posted outside, everyone was silent.People are indeed powerful, and they can't accept it.

Yang Shen, the son of Gao and Gan, had a smooth journey like this, how could he swallow his anger for Zhang Cong, a fellow bumpkin.

Of course, he is not a fool. It would be against the law to kill a court official.So he chose a special place, Zuoshunmen.

This is a place where people are not responsible for killing people, even the emperor can't control it.The reason for this is that during the Yingzong period, the eunuch Wang Zhen was in power, bullying the superior and flattering the inferior, cruel and cruel.There were complaints from the ruling and opposition parties, and even Wang Zhen's henchmen were showing off their power.

Finally, the ministers couldn't stand it anymore. When Wang Zhen's three dog legs provoked everyone again, it was unknown who would strike first. Individuals were beaten to death.

As the saying goes, the law does not blame the public, and the emperor also faltered in the face of the upright ministers, so he could only hold the matter high and put it down gently.

These three people killed Zhongliang, did all kinds of bad things, and died, but Zuo Shunmen became famous after this battle, and it became a holy place in the hearts of all Ming literati.Whenever there are traitors in the court, some loyal people will come to Zuoshunmen to pray, hoping that they will belch soon.

Today, more than 70 years later, this place has become a legally defaulted "three no matter" zone, and even the emperor has acquiesced that this is a place for professionally beating villains.

It can be said that Yang Shen took great pains in choosing this place for the murder. If Zhang Cong died here, it can only be said that his fate is bad, and Jiajing can't say anything.

He formulated a plan in a simple and rude way. He said it was a plan, but in fact there were only three steps:

[-]. Let's all wait here for Zhang Cong.

[-]. After Zhang Cong appeared, he was punched to death.

[-]. Run after you are killed!

Such a crude plan was approved by all the young officials present. Everyone looked excited, and their eyes lit up: "Yongxiu is indeed a genius! There are ancient sages who eliminated the three parties of Wang Zhen! Today we also sacrifice our lives for righteousness! Eliminate thieves for the country!"

"Kill Zhang Cong! Da Ming Sheji for me!"

"Kill kill kill!"

……

Yang Yiqing, Jiang Mian, and Fei Hong happened to pass by here, seeing Yang Shen and other young officials with blushing faces and thick necks, they couldn't help being curious.

Yang Yiqing said: "What is this for? Why are they all gathered together?"

"Hmph! In broad daylight, they are all court officials, but it's so unreasonable to lose their composure. This old man will write to Mr. Yang to let him take care of his son!" Jiang Mian has always been solemn, so he can't understand them like this.

However, Fei Hong said with a good-tempered smile, "Hey, young people, it's normal to be playful. I respect you, you didn't study in the middle of the night and secretly jumped over the wall to become a monk and beat us to death."

Being slapped in the face in public, Jiang Mian was a little embarrassed to come down from the stage, and said darkly, "Can it be the same? I was still a juren at the time, and they all became officials. This is the imperial palace. Why did you lose your temper in front of the imperial court! I will teach them a lesson." pause!"

Yang Yiqing and Fei Hong were amused, even talking and persuading the old stubborn man to leave. If there was a time machine, the two would probably go back and slap themselves several times. They would never have thought that Yang Shen and the others were here I want to commit murder!

However, there is a good saying that if a scholar rebels, he will fail in ten years. Although Yang Shen is a good reader and has a smooth tongue, it is the first time he has beaten someone.

When Zhang Cong walked into the palace happily, he saw a group of well-dressed and imposing young ministers hiding around, and a few wandering around.It may be because the weather is too cold, many people have had two clear noses, sneezing and stomping their feet.

Zhang Cong: "..." The fool also knew something was wrong!Quickly ran away.

At this time, the young officials also saw him, and they seemed to have a chicken blood shot, lasers shot out from their eyes, and they shouted: "He's right there, don't let him get away!!"

"Hurry up!!"

So there was a very shocked scene in the palace. An honest-looking official in his 40s was running ahead, followed by a long line of people chasing him madly, swearing while chasing.

"Old thief! Don't run away if you have the ability!"

"Come after you if you have the ability!" Zhang Cong was proud of himself. Since he was a child, his family was poor, and even if he was a scholar, he would help him to work in the fields.I used to complain about my parents, brother and sister-in-law, but now I can't wait to kneel down and kowtow to them!Thanks to them themselves, they have developed a strong body!

On the other hand, the young Hanlin, although they are not very old, like Yang Shen, all of them are from extraordinary families.

Seeing that Zhang Cong was about to climb out of Zuoshun Gate, Yang Shen jumped out proudly from the side. It turned out that he had been in and out of the palace all year round and was very familiar with the road here. Detour around and block people.Now the people behind also followed, and everyone surrounded him.Zhang Cong mourned in his heart: "My life is over!"

At this moment, a suspicious female voice came from: "What is this for?" Looking back, Li Chengfeng was wearing a blue Taoist robe, looking at him in surprise.

Zhang Cong's grade, it is reasonable to say that Li Chengfeng is not usually seen, but he once met the Holy Majesty, and met him briefly at that time, not to mention that there is only one Taoist nun in the palace, so he knows who it is.

He hurriedly shouted: "Xiangu save me! These people are going to beat the lower officials to death!"

Seeing Li Chengfeng, Yang Shen recalled the humiliating scene a few days ago, and said grimly, "Why is it you again! You better stay out of your own business! I don't hit women! Get the hell out of here!"

Li Chengfeng glanced at him with a half-smile, then glanced at the surrounding officials, hesitantly said: "You said...they want to kill you?"

It's not that he doesn't believe it, it's just that one or two of these nerds are out of breath, and their clothes are disheveled. ?

But Zhang Cong nodded firmly: "Yes! They are afraid that I will face the saint! If you want to intercept me here, please ask Xiangu to take me away!"

Li Chengfeng nodded helplessly: "I happen to be looking for the emperor too, so come with me."

After finally formulating such a seamless plan, how can a female Taoist priest destroy it? Yang Shen shouted: "If that's the case, don't blame me for being rude! Colleagues! Separate this female Taoist priest first, and I will deal with Zhang璁."

The nerds looked at the incredibly beautiful woman, blushed, straightened their clothes, bowed their hands, and whispered: "Miss, I'm sorry."

Li Chengfeng moved silently twice, loosening his muscles and bones, thinking how to control his strength...

After a while, Zhang Cong stared blankly at the scene where the corpses were strewn all over the place. The young officials who were still showing off their power just now lay on the ground and howled one by two.Glancing in awe at the calm female crown with unruffled sideburns, the Emperor Xindao was surrounded by hidden dragons and crouching tigers, so he should keep his tail between his legs and be a man.

Patting the dust on his body, Li Chengfeng signaled Zhang Cong to follow him, and told the little yellow gate he saw on the way, where a bunch of people who wanted to commit murder lay lying there.Xiao Huangmen said in a daze: "Are you going to let the imperial guards take you away?"

Li Chengfeng shook his head: "No, I asked you to call the imperial doctor for diagnosis and treatment. Some of them seem to have been broken by me." Xiao Huangmen shuddered and retreated quickly.

Li Chengfeng also had no choice, he was already careful and careful, who knew that those civil servants were so weak, especially Yang Shen, he didn't even make a move, he tripped himself and fell to his head and blood.

When Jiajing learned of what happened at Zuoshunmen, it can be said that he was furious.

"Lawless! It's simply lawless!" He didn't care whether Zuo Shunmen's murder was illegal, so he decided to tie up those people.In the end, it was Li Chengfeng who stopped him.

"What are you tied to? I'm beating you all to the ground. They're all raised at home. Forget it. If you find out what the civil and military acquiesce in the court, you will be read by the officials again."

Zhu Houcong knew that what he said was reasonable, so he could only sit back indignantly.But his temperament is soft but not hard, the more others don't let him do something, the more he wants to do it, he can be called the reincarnation of a bully.Originally, it was regarded as a reconciliation with the cabinet, and the matter was over after confirming his parents, but Yang Shen made this happen.

The little emperor was very angry, and the consequences were very serious. He issued another order, not only to give his father an honorary title, but also to let his father's spiritual seat enter the Taimiao, which only emperors can enter!

At this point in the matter, even a good old man like Yang Yiqing and Fei Hong couldn't help objecting, we don't care if you give your father a title, even if it's like that female Taoist priest, it's your own business if the title grows out of the sky.But now the problem is, your father Xing Xian Wang has never been an emperor, how can his spirit card enter the Taimiao!

So the officials stood up again to argue with the emperor.

But Jiajing has been fighting or on the way of fighting recently, and he has already gained experience. Despite the wind and rain, I will not move.Whatever they say in the court hall, if it doesn't work, they will push Zhang Cong out to scold them.

Zhang Cong was also secretly complaining in his heart at this time. He was able to win the scolding before mainly because he was reasonable, but now, even he knows that the emperor's actions are wrong.But there is no way, he has already boarded the emperor's thief ship, so he can only grit his teeth and persevere, and be the emperor's tool man honestly.It was another court ceremony, and Jiajing sat on the dragon chair and counted ants bored as before, and when the time was almost up, he ordered to retreat.Huang Jin stood up and said to the ministers: "My lords, please be early tomorrow."

Everyone was the same as before, reluctantly dispersed, but today was different, one person was extremely upset today.

This person's name is He Mengchun, and he is the right servant of the Ministry of Officials. He has always been at loggerheads with a son of a noble family in the court. In the past two days, he finally caught his fault and wrote a memorial to complain eloquently.As a result, the focus of the court these days is on the ceremony, and the rest of the energy is devoted to other livelihood and economic issues. Who has the time to care about the trivial matters between the two small officials?

So his elaborate memorial was retained, and the emperor didn't even read it.He Mengchun got angry. He felt that it was not an option to go on like this. He couldn't do anything by suing himself, so he made up his mind.

"Everyone! Please listen to the next sentence!" He shouted loudly, successfully focused everyone's attention on himself, nodded in satisfaction, and continued: "We must fight hard, why don't we all go outside and cry bitterly! I believe the emperor will definitely feel our persistence! Change your mind in the end!"

His sound hit Yang Shen's heart, ever since he was beaten home by Li Chengfeng, Yang Shen had been worrying about how to solve the matter.He Mengchun can be said to have woken him up, right!At that time, the Emperor Chenghua wanted to hold a grand funeral for the Empress Dowager, which was not in line with the ancestral system. All the officials fought hard and kowtowed and cried at the Wenhua Gate. In the end, Chenghua had to take back the order. They would also do this. Jiajing just now The little emperor who has not been on the throne for a long time will definitely obey!

He hit the rails while it was hot: "The country has supported scholars for 50 and [-] years, and it is today!" Yang Shen roared, and the scene fell silent.I have to say that these few sentences are really in line with the ideals of civil servants, for the sake of the country!For justice!The name will go down in history!Don't they just wait for this day when they read sage books!

In the atmosphere of self-sacrifice and self-moving, Yang Shen added fuel to the fire, jumped up and said loudly: "The matter has come to this, why should you bear it any longer, follow me into the palace to petition! Kill the villain!"

Under the extremely provocative slogans, the civil servants' faces were flushed, red, and their expressions were extremely excited, and they shouted the slogans in unison.

Of course, in the frenzied atmosphere, there are also a few people who are wise and protect their lives. Most of them are not young, and their official positions are not high. They only want to spend their wages quietly and do their jobs well to be worthy of the country. up.These people turned around together, not wanting to get into this troubled water.

The result may be that the scene is too hot, causing some people to lose their minds, or they may not be used to cheating and muddling because of the mentality of following the law and not blaming the public.Suddenly two people jumped out of the crowd, they were one of the gangsters who had ambushed with Yang Shen at that time, they were both young editors of the Hanlin Academy, one was beaten and dislocated by Li Chengfeng, and the other broke his head.

The two men looked ferocious, with a fierce look on their faces, and their mouths, which usually only read sage books, breathed out fragrance: "Damn it! Whoever doesn't go to petition today, we will beat him to death together!"

Mingzhe was stunned, looking at the eyes of a group of people around him like hungry wolves, he could only nod his head, and smiled awkwardly: "Go, go, why not, aren't we leaving now? open circuit".

In the end, except for a few highly respected veterans, almost all the officials rushed to Zuoshunmen, including a few of the six ministers!Their purpose today is very clear. If you don’t listen to us, the emperor, we won’t get up. If the country doesn’t operate, we won’t do it either!

This can be called the largest petition in the history of the Ming Dynasty, and the cause was only because of the emperor's family affairs.

Zuoshunmen was actually not too far from the emperor's bedroom. When he heard Huang Jin's report, Zhu Houcong felt a little flustered for the first time.

With so many ministers coming together to oppose him, the emperor, anyone would be afraid!He walked back and forth nervously in the room, and it happened that Li Chengfeng was studying things in the alchemy room at this time, and knew nothing about the farce in the court.Zhu Houcong originally wanted to send someone to invite the real Jinghua to discuss it, but then he thought about it, since he ascended the throne, the other party has solved countless troubles for him, but the emperor can't give him anything except some simple rewards.Now that something happened, he still wanted to find a female Taoist priest for the first time. He secretly spurned himself, Zhu Houcong, Zhu Houcong, can't you be tough once, and let Jinghua see, your growth during this period, tell him you A man who can stand up to things!

However, things were far beyond his control.

Hundreds of officials knelt at Zuoshun Gate, some cried, some shouted, quoted scriptures, some recited poems, some even composed music and sang songs on the spot to persuade the emperor.Those who were forcibly pulled here couldn't say anything, so they simply gathered together and started chatting.

"What? Your wife also bought An Yuxuan's perfume? Hey, my family did the same. Ever since she participated in the Hundred Flowers Conference, she seemed to be possessed by a demon when she returned home. She would go shopping every two days."

"No, I don't know which villain came up with the idea. An Yuxuan actually limits the purchase of ten bottles a day, and has to wait in line before dawn. The little girl can't buy it every time. She cries at home all day long, and the officials go up and down. It's early, I went to help buy it today, that guy, there are too many people, but luckily I bought it."

Facing the envious gazes of the people around him, the petty official said triumphantly, then became depressed immediately, looked around, and complained in a low voice: "Hey, I don't know how long this matter will last, I haven't eaten breakfast yet, I can't go home……"

A good Zuo Shun door, noisy like a vegetable market.

At this moment, several eunuchs who were in charge of ceremonies walked over cautiously, and said respectfully under the horrified eyes of all the officials: "Ministers, the emperor has said that he knows what all the ministers mean. He will think about it carefully, we will discuss it in the long run, please step down first."

Zhu Houcong finally relented, and he had no choice but to bow his head under the eaves.With such a fuss today, how did the history books write about him last time, I can only ask the little eunuch to answer and find a step down by himself.

But who knows that the officials are even more excited, the emperor retreats!That means their petition worked!It means they won!So he said indifferently: "I will not give an order today, and I dare not retreat to the death!"

Zhu Houcong had no choice but to issue an edict to leave traces. I am afraid that this incident will not be avoided, and everyone in future generations will know about it.But there is really nothing to do with them, so I have to draft an imperial decree, if you don't enter the Taimiao, don't enter, these people are too troublesome.

As a result, the eunuch who brought the imperial decree got his nose dirty again, and the ministers refused to enter, saying that the emperor, if you don't take back your order immediately today, we will not let it go!

Zhu Houcong is not afraid this time, but angry, I said in my heart that I have given you a face!When the matter got to this point, he didn't care about it.Immediately launched the emperor's ultimate move, he called the Jin Yiwei headed by Lu Song, and asked them to issue an ultimatum, and if it didn't work, they would all be arrested!

Jin Yiwei, who was well-known in the Ming Dynasty for being able to stop children from crying at night, although in recent years it has been divided into the East and West factories has gained some limelight, but it is still enough to deal with a group of sour scholars who are helpless.They themselves are attached to the imperial power, and now they are finally able to perform in front of the new emperor, and they all rush forward.

The ministers of Zuoshunmen were also dumbfounded, why didn't the emperor play his cards according to the routine? !How can anyone be so rude to the petitioning officials, there are a few who are calm, and when they see Jin Yiwei coming, they know that this is going to happen.Today, we will retreat tactically for the time being, and we will argue with the emperor after a while, so we secretly withdrew a group.

Lu Song shouted out the emperor's will, seeing that there were still many who were indifferent, he sneered and ordered to do it.

All of a sudden, the officials were in disbelief.However, their strength was about the same as that of chickens in front of the strong Jin Yiwei. After being incompetent and furious, some ministers took advantage of the chaos and slipped away.

Originally there were more than 200 people who petitioned together, but now there are less than 100 people left.Most of these 100 people are young and have little official positions, and their families are in good conditions, which seems to be pampered. They are the main force of trouble.Yang Shen was also furious at this time, he felt that the emperor did not listen to the opinions of the masses, which was a sign of a faint emperor!In addition to the sad departure of his father Yang Tinghe, he stood up again and shouted loudly among the chaotic crowd: "Today's affairs have come to an end, everyone must not retreat! If you retreat like this, what will you look like when you see the late emperor?" And underground!"

The power of role models is infinite. As the leader of the younger generation of family officials in Beijing, when Yang Shen speaks, everyone is instantly filled with strength.

These literati were delicate and expensive, and Jin Yiwei didn't dare to be too overbearing. If something was damaged, he might not be able to afford to walk around, so he was quite restrained.In the end, they didn't stop this group of people!

They rushed up to Zuoshun's door, knelt down and cried loudly!Cry for the country, cry for the first emperor, and cry for yourself!

What is it like to hear a hundred young and strong men howl? If you ask Jiajing, he will tell you four words - life is better than death.The cries of those people could be said to resound throughout the Forbidden City, even Jiang's family was alarmed.After comforting his mother, Zhu Houcong felt a splitting headache when he heard the crying outside. When had he ever seen a literati with a dead skin and face, his whole body was going to collapse!Yesterday, I was reviewing the memorial until late at night, and I finally stayed up until the next court to sleep, but now this kind of thing happened.

This crying, crying from morning to evening, big
