The emperor has tasted the sweetness this time, and will never stop.

Especially the six ministers who were kneeling in front of the court at this moment, such as the big bosses of the imperial court, stood firmly on the same front at this moment, and it was impossible to see the two groups that were still arguing just now.

The six of them understood Chongzhen's mind more clearly than anyone else, and the scene in the imperial study room yesterday really left a deep impression on everyone.

But without mentioning this, just dismissing those who have not yet arrived at the court meeting for no reason will chill all the officials, and even want to kill people at this moment.

How is this possible?

This will never work!

At this moment, Qian Yiqian shouted without fear: "Your Majesty killed one person without authorization today. Wouldn't it chill the hearts of the people in the world? It chills the hearts of people of insight in the world!!"

As soon as his words came out, a large group of officials followed immediately.

Qian Yiqian didn't want to stand up, he was full of bad debts, but at this moment he was the only Minister of Rites to stand up and say, if he didn't say that after today, his reputation in the scholarly community would be ruined.

Your ceremony is not that of a saint, but that of an emperor.

If such a reputation spread, he would lose his position as the leader of Donglin, and without the support of the Donglin Party, how could he be the chief assistant of Ming Dynasty.

Even if you plan to be a twenty-five boy.

A second-five son of the first assistant and a second-five son of the Minister of Rites have different weights at all.

However, his words were not nonsense.

If Chongzhen could not be as thorough and ruthless as Zhu Youchen, he would have to care about his own reputation.

With just one mouth, a literati can completely describe today's events as another version, and countless talents in the countryside will give up and take refuge in him.

But Chongzhen understood that if he wanted to deal with the current civil servants and regain power, he had to rely on the children of poor families.

Immediately, Chongzhen's gloomy face was as scary as a storm, and his heart was even more angry, but he just wanted to laugh in vain.

"These are the loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty? These are the so-called loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty!"

"Dong Kun was thrown into the Imperial Prison and no one asked him. At this moment, a fifth-rank civil servant, but all the ministers in the hall stopped him."

"What a Ming. What a loyal!"

Even at this moment, Bi Ziyan was completely indistinguishable from these people in his eyes, and all the good feelings for Bi Ziyan in his heart were completely wiped out at this moment.

At the same time, Bi Ziyan was also extremely disappointed in Chongzhen at this moment.

"The first emperor was careless at the beginning!!!"

"Why don't you discuss with the ministers about the new king?"

"Even if it is to leave a will, it will be ten thousand times better than the current situation. At least there will be no family disaster like Zhu Youchen!!!"

"If news of today's incident is reported, there will be more than one dissatisfied clan in the world!!!"

However, at this moment, he can only bury these words deep in his heart, and he will not tell anyone at all. Not only will he die if he speaks out at this moment, but it will also implicate the nine clans...

It's true that he has his persistence in his heart, but he can't afford to lose his Nine Clans.

The rest of the officials are also fighting with reason at this moment, and they have not flinched at all. It is very likely that Chongzhen will definitely not stop today if he does not give up.

For a while, the two sides came to a complete stalemate. On the contrary, they forgot the original middle-aged officials.

In fact, this group of officials did this on purpose. Today they all saw Chongzhen's determination, and at this moment they followed up with such a thing, completely dispelling Chongzhen's plan to collect grain.

As long as today is over, as long as the wind blows and they are given time to operate, they can completely use public opinion to pick Chongzhen up and roast them on the fire.

After all, Chongzhen has been on the throne for two years, and all the officials have discovered that Chongzhen really cares about the people, whether it is pretend or real, they can seize such a method.

Even Bi Ziyan in front of the crowd knew it well at this moment, but his heart was even more miserable, knowing that it would be completely impossible to collect food from the gentry.

"It's over! It's over this time! Can Daming be saved??"

He knew Chongzhen was indecisive in the imperial study.

It is even more clear that in such a situation, it must be Chongzhen who backs down. He does not have the toughness of Jiajing, nor the stubbornness of Wanli.

This time, they all lost completely. .

Chapter 438

Bi Ziyan underestimated the value that the gentry attached to the "country".

"Da Ming has supported scholars for two hundred years, this is how these people repay Daming!!!"

Just as he had guessed, at this moment Chongzhen was really afraid in his heart facing the raging crowd of officials, and he already wanted to give in at this moment.

"Are these people going to seize power today?"

"Don't they want to force me to death?"

"No, I must not bow my head today."

But he still didn't want to say this, and he also understood that if he spoke first, the majesty and prestige he wanted to erect in front of the officials in the future would immediately collapse at this moment.

Unless he puts down Zhu Youchen, the officials will only become more and more aggressive in the future.

At this moment, Chongzhen was a little envious of Zhu Youchen, and what he envied was Zhu Youchen's 30 army.

"At this moment, if I have 30, as long as I have an army of [-], how can I back down?"

Ming Dynasty had soldiers and horses, but the rights to soldiers and horses were almost all in the hands of civil officials.

After 200 years of contention, the Civil Service Group of the Ming Dynasty completely suppressed the power of the generals to a minimum, and completely controlled the military power of the Ming Dynasty.

Even Chongzhen doesn't have any soldiers in his hands at the moment.

But it is not true that there are no soldiers and horses. At this moment, Chongzhen suddenly remembered that the army he asked Shen Yongmao to recruit again was his army.

It was originally intended to deal with Zhu Youchen's army, but now it has become Chongzhen's reliance.

"In the future, we must support the generals. There must be generals and troops who are completely loyal to themselves. Not to mention the likes of Taizu and Chengzu, at least like Wuzong."

"I endured it this time, but I definitely won't endure it for too long. This debt will be settled sooner or later."

As soon as Chongzhen's thoughts changed, his aggressive aura instantly disappeared.

However, all the ministers below are human beings. Once Chongzhen had the intention to back down, his whole person's aura suddenly changed, and others could not feel it.

However, they are all the top officials of Ming Dynasty, how could they not feel it.

Immediately, Shen Yongmao and the others looked at each other out of the corners of their eyes, and they all saw the surprise in the corners of their eyes.

Today's situation is a complete surprise for them.

At this moment, they saw another weakness of Chongzhen, and it was a weakness that was exposed to the officials. How could these people not understand what Chongzhen could understand.

Immediately, although all the people did not say anything, they all knew what the other party meant.

A strong monarchy naturally limits the rights of the courtiers, and a weak courtier's power naturally can only depend on the emperor and become a mouthpiece.

No one would dislike rights at all, and no one would want to be modest about such things.

Even the censors of the Inspectorate are no exception. No one wants to have an emperor on their heads. Without the emperor, they can manage the entire Ming Dynasty according to their own wishes.

"Hey!!!"

Bi Ziyan let out a long sigh in his heart, but at this moment he couldn't help but want to stand up and help Chongzhen again. Although the other party may not remember his kindness, it should be regarded as repaying the kindness of the late emperor.

However, this time before Bi Ziyan stood up to make a rescue, there was gradually a burst of noise outside Fengtian Hall, which instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the hall.

This is the palace.

Here is the Fengtian Temple.

Who dares to make noise here?

Don't look at their group of people who are buzzing in the hall at the moment, but they still have to keep quiet when they go to the square outside.

But at the moment.

At this moment, not only did the bursts of noise not weaken, but it became louder and louder, and bursts of exclamations began to be heard.

This is not a good sign.

Shen Yongmao and the others were shocked and furious, they were about to force Chongzhen to the point of being unable to step down, but they were disturbed at this very moment.

"After this time, I don't know when to wait."

"Besides, Chongzhen must have taken precautions in his heart after going through such a thing, and he may not have a chance next time."

Shen Yongmao was extremely unwilling in his heart, immediately put aside the noise outside, and directly pointed to the surrounding Shangshu and Yushi with his eyes.

  After all, his father was the chief assistant of the Ming Dynasty back then, and he had given him a lot of experience.

Back then, when his father died in disgrace, he didn't say anything else, but he just told him such a truth.

At this moment, Shen Yongmao was planning to take the opportunity to completely knock down the majesty of Chongzhen, but the rest of the people shook their heads hesitantly.

Following the trend, they still have the guts.

But at the moment when Shen Yongmao was going to force it, they were unwilling in their hearts, and they were even cursing in their hearts.

"This fellow Shen Yongmao is simply crazy."

"The emperor is really in a hurry, what should I do if the fish dies and the net breaks?"

"Just change the emperor. You are not Zhang Juzheng. The new emperor will be the first to deal with us."

"Shen Yongmao is eager for quick success and quick profit, and he is blinded by profit, so it should not be regarded as relying on."

"This person cannot be handed over, and we need to keep a distance from him in the future."

In an instant, the minds of the few people around were turned, and then they distanced themselves from Shen Yongmao indiscriminately...

Chapter 439

Shen Yongmao didn't see the small movements of several people.

The refusal of these people made Shen Yongmao secretly scold them as trash in his heart, but he was also overjoyed.

"None of these people has made a decision. As long as I can turn the tide at critical times, I can become the chief assistant of Ming Dynasty!"

A group of people have their own thoughts, but it does not prevent them from noticing the movement outside.

At the same time, Chongzhen also breathed a sigh of relief, his back felt icy cold, and at this moment he also felt scared.

He didn't notice the small actions of Shen Yongmao and the others, and he was always worried that Shen Yongmao and others took the opportunity to force the palace. Such a thing is not without precedent.

But, fortunately, everything is temporarily over at this moment.

At this moment, Chongzhen focused on the commotion outside, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, what happened?

He believed that if it was an ordinary matter, no one would dare to make a noise here.

rather than ordinary things.

The eight hundred li urgent report flashed through Chongzhen's mind in an instant.

In an instant, Chongzhen raised his heart: "Is it Zhu Youchen or Zhu Xieyuan?"

Chongzhen can only think of this at the moment. At this moment, there is no autumn harvest in Ming Dynasty, and Hou Jin and Mongolia will not invade at this time.

Only Zhu Youchen and Zhu Xieyuan.

"Which one is it?" Chongzhen murmured, and a layer of sweat broke out in the palm of his hand.

It was said that it took a long time, but in reality it only took a few breaths, and the next moment a protracted sound came from outside.

"Report!"

"Urgent report!!"

"Qian Guogong [-] miles urgent report!!!"

Hearing the sound, all the people in the main hall turned their heads to look outside, their faces showing astonishment, they also thought of Zhu Xieyuan and Zhu Youchen.

But I really didn't think of Qian Guogong here.

However, the next moment, the faces of the six ministers and some of the quick-response people showed shock, and shock appeared in their eyes.

Even Chongzhen above couldn't sit still at this moment, he just stood up from the dragon chair, looking straight at the outside of the hall.
