Chapter 735: Executed

There were many people standing in the Nuan Pavilion, but there was no sound at all.!

Everyone looked at the Emperor on the sick bed in silence, even though they all acted as if they were mourning for their heirs, but if it was true or not, only God would know.

Jiajing suddenly became a very kind person. He half-closed his eyes and said angrily: "I'll give you a seat."

A mean emperor, a person who will hate you for the rest of his life if you take advantage of him. But now, it seems that everything suddenly dawned on them. Everyone suddenly discovered that Emperor Jiajing was actually a very easy-to-get-together and approachable person.

Maybe Xu Qian, Yang Ting and these people didn't feel it, but others felt it deeply. They remembered that when Emperor Hongzhi was here, he went to court too early in the morning and it wasn't even bright yet. Emperor Hongzhi was afraid that everyone couldn't see the road, so he still

I would specially order the eunuch to carry a lantern to pick me up. Sometimes it rains.

Snow, and I'm afraid that the ministers will get wet, but umbrellas are not allowed in the palace. This umbrella is like a canopy. In the Forbidden City, except the emperor, who dares to put a canopy on his head. Isn't this boring? But Emperor Hongzhi has a way

, he simply left the palace and went outside to discuss state affairs with ministers.

Comparing Emperor Hongzhi and Jiajing, this Jiajing is simply not a human being. When everyone comes to the palace to have an audience, except for Yang Tinghe and Xu Qian, very few people are allowed to sit down. But now, everyone finally enjoys the treatment of a national scholar, and they can't help but laugh and cry.

.

Then, Jiajing's words stunned many people: "Serve tea!"

"..." Even the eunuchs on the side found it incredible. As the name suggests, the tea in the palace is of course good tea, and the emperor has no reason to entertain ministers with bad tea. But the better the tea, the more stingy Jiajing refused to give it.

, very few people can enjoy this kind of treatment.

In fact, Jiajing is not necessarily stingy in doing this. The reason why he is like this is that he also has his own guidelines. As an emperor, you cannot give favors without reason. Treat you better today and better tomorrow. As a result, everyone takes it for granted, so Jiajing usually treats you better.

Very stingy.

Tea was brought, but no one drank it or said anything.

Everyone knows that when something is abnormal, it becomes a monster.

Jiajing sighed and said: "I am a prince. I don't know the importance of Jiuding. How can I be honest and have no children? So I succeeded to the throne. It has been twelve years now. In these twelve years, I have done some good things and some stupid things."

Things, good things, nothing more than

I originally thought that by killing the righteous and traitorous party, I could cheer up my spirit, get rid of the bad government, and clean up my country. But I was confused for a while, and then I misunderstood the traitor's words, which caused great disaster. Now I am sick and it is my own fault.

.”

Such a crime, and it was said by Jiajing.

At first, everyone thought that Jiajing might still have a few breaths left or could live for a few more days, but when they saw his kind words, they immediately knew that he was really not going to survive.

When a bird is about to die, its song is mournful; when a man is about to die, its words are also kind.

Many people raised their ears and remained silent.

However, Xu Qian suddenly felt something strange and inexplicable. He fell to the ground and said with tears in his eyes: "Wei Chen will die. The traitor Zhang Xian and Wei Chen should have noticed it and exposed his ugliness."

Jiajing said happily: "I don't blame you, I don't blame you. If you want to blame me, I have already seen it. You...actually noticed something, but I was trapped too deeply.

I was deceived and only wanted to live forever, which is why I am today."

Today's atmosphere is extremely unusual. Jiajing suddenly blamed himself. You must know that Jiajing's every word and deed has been recorded by the eunuch in charge of daily life. In the future, it will naturally be reviewed by the Imperial Academy and recorded in the Ming Dynasty Records.

Yang Tinghe closed his eyes. He was not too moved. Instead, he felt that Jiajing was setting the stage. He held the tea cup and said nothing, but became more vigilant.

Jiajing sighed: "Now that things have come to this, it is useless to say more. Now I am about to go on a grand tour and will go with the late emperors. There are some things that I have to explain. Come and submit the pen and ink. Where is Mr. Yang?"

Yang Tinghe stood up and said: "Old minister is here."

Jiajing said: "I'll trouble you, Mr. Yang, to prepare an edict."

Yang Tinghe said: "Old minister, I obey the order."

Yang Tinghe arrived in front of the case, holding a pen and waiting for a letter.

Jiajing said quietly: "I am just a clan member, and then the emperor. Since ancient times, when emperors ruled the world, they must respect the ancestors of heaven and ancestors as their first priority. The respect for the ancestors of heaven and ancestors is based on the most sincere heart, and it cannot be allowed to take a breath. But I have been sick since I was a child.

, so we got close..."

Yang Tinghe pondered for a moment, and then wrote: "I succeeded to the throne as a descendant of the clan, and was enshrined in the ancestral temple for twelve years. However, remembering that I have served the family law of the saints far away, and inherited the example of Huang Kao recently, I only want to respect God and help the people.

This is because I am prone to many illnesses and want to live longer, so I

The treacherous people took the opportunity to deceive, praying that this day will bring prosperity to the construction industry, the sacrifices in the suburban temples are not intimate, and the rituals of the Ming Dynasty have been abandoned for a long time, which is not only against the constitution, but also betrays the original intention. The nearest heaven has revealed my heart, and the plan can be changed thoroughly.

But according to the infant's illness, there is no reason to make amends, and every thought increases guilt and hatred."

Xu Qian stood aside to supervise what Yang Tinghe was writing, fearing that Yang Tinghe would deceive him, while other ministers also watched silently.

At the beginning of Jiajing's last edict, he did have sinful intentions, but before he died, he also played a clever trick, saying that he was sick, and it was precisely because of his illness that he sought immortality. In the end, he was deceived.

The ancestral temple, in the later period, did not come to the court to listen to the government, which violated the ancestral system and betrayed its own conscience. It was all blamed on illness.

You know, a sick person is worthy of sympathy. Can you expect a sick person to go to court every day? Can you expect him to go to the ancestral temple every now and then to offer sacrifices? It is the ordinary people in later generations who still have food to eat when they are sick.

You can also take sick leave. Being an emperor is not easy.

However, Jiajing is purely deceiving. If this guy is not an accident, he can live for so many years even if he takes a lot of pills every day. Is such a person physically sick?

It can be seen that what he said just now is both kind and sad. In fact, it is all smoke and mirrors. Jiajing is Jiajing. He has his own nature. It is easy for the country to change his nature but hard to change. To this day, he appears to be sinning against himself, but in fact he is.

Defending yourself.

It’s not easy. It seems that reputation is very important to everyone, and Jiajing is not exempt from this.

Xu Qian was thinking that it would not be easy, but Yang Tinghe didn't think so. He wrote the edict to vent his anger.

Especially the sentence "Inheriting Huang Kao's example" is the most vicious. Huang Kao is Jiajing's father, but the question is, is Jiajing's father Huang Kao? If it really counts as Huang Kao, then in theory it should be Emperor Hongzhi, but

The problem arises again. Emperor Hongzhi may spend his whole life

They have never seen Jiajing, and how can they get any words and deeds? This is a deliberate loophole, which is a bit like the Spring and Autumn brushwork. With this brushwork, it will trigger discussions among people in the world in the future, and the emperor's edict will be studied more deeply.

, more information will be unearthed.

Jiajing once launched a debate on etiquette, which lasted for a long time. The final result was that it ended without any problem, which is different from history. In history, Jiajing insisted on launching a debate on etiquette because he wanted to show his authority and make himself more legitimate.

Head involved here

When it comes to the issue of his origin, there is no room for carelessness. But now, the Dali Discussion can be said to have started but ended, because Jiajing has consolidated its power in the process. In the end, both parties compromised, and King Xingxian was allowed to enter the ancestral temple for the sake of Emperor Xingxian, and Jiajing gave up on it.

.

There is another confusing point here, that is, Jiajing's biological father was only emperor, not emperor. Although the difference between emperor and emperor is only one word, the difference is not small. At least in the posthumous edict, it should be called Di Kao, not Huang Kao.

But no one can delve into these things.

Even Xu Qian took the initiative to filter out Yang Tinghe's nonsense. As for the few Hanlin bachelors waiting on the side, they were obviously a little confused, but they did not dare to speak.

Jiajing added: "I have a son named Zaiji. He is young, but he is quite smart..."

Yang Tinghe hesitated for a moment, but refused to write.

A Hanlin on the side said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of Zhongshan is too young. I am afraid that he will not be able to obey the instructions of his ancestors and obey the public sentiments."

It's a showdown. Obviously, at this time, it has reached a point where a showdown is inevitable.

Jiajing said angrily: "Who are you?"

The bachelor bowed in admiration: "Yang Tao, a bachelor who serves as a lecturer in the Hanlin Academy."

Jiajing sneered: "I have established a legacy, what does it have to do with you? The King of Zhongshan is of my blood, what do you want to do?"

This sentence is a very serious question, and there is an air of chilling in the words.

The originally gentle atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Yang Tao's face did not change and he said: "The thoughts of the humble minister are all related to the country. The choice of the prince is related to the country and must not be a child's play. His Royal Highness the King of Zhongshan is indeed young. The humble minister is asking to be established as the prince and choose the clan to come to the capital to supervise the country's affairs.

, Only in this way can we comply with the people's wishes..."

Jiajing was about to struggle to get up, but several eunuchs were so frightened that they hurried forward.

In front of Jiajing, someone actually contradicted him directly and mentioned the issue of the crown prince so brazenly. This had obviously reached Jiajing's bottom line.

Jiajing gritted his teeth, his gloomy face became even darker, as if he was going to use all his strength, and shouted: "Come on, come on, take it out, kill him immediately, kill him!"

Zhang Jinyong fell to the ground and said, "Your Majesty, you can't."

So all the ministers fell to the ground and said: "Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible."

This move was obviously premeditated. Even people like Xu Qian felt a little embarrassed. Someone was deliberately trying to anger Emperor Jiajing. Whether Yang Tao's words made sense or not is another matter. But at least at this juncture, Jiajing was

If you want to kill people, as a minister, if you don't oppose and persuade, it is obvious that people in the world will definitely talk about it.

Suddenly, Xu Qian fell into an embarrassing situation.
