Chapter 414 This is the Palace of the King of Hell
A local wealthy family like the Wu family must have inextricable ties with the local scholars.
This is not surprising at all.
So although Hu Guang wanted to deny it, he finally admitted it honestly.
Zhang Anshidao: "The scope of the case is jaw-dropping. From the Wenyuan Pavilion bachelor to the ordinary Hanlin editors of the Hanlin Academy, many people are involved."
Zhang Anshi paused and then said: "If it is an ordinary case, it would be fine, but this is a reverse case. Those who have colluded with the Wu family and others must be frightened. Your Majesty will investigate this matter thoroughly. These
People know it well even if they think about it, as long as Jin Yiwei continues to investigate, sooner or later they may be found on their heads."
Hu Guang felt a little relieved when he saw that Zhang Anshi did not continue to delve deeper into his friendship with Wu.
Zhang Anshi continued: "Since it is only a matter of time before being caught, it is inevitable that the dog will jump over the wall in a hurry. Your Majesty... they will definitely try their best to muddy the waters in the capital, because only in this way can your Majesty and Jin Yiwei be freed."
Attention is focused on other aspects. This is why the criticism of the New Deal has become more and more fierce in the past few days, and the reason why people in Taiping Prefecture are panicking comes from this."
Zhu Di nodded and said: "To this day, they are still unrepentant. They are a bunch of people who can kill a thousand people."
Zhang Anshi pursed his lips and smiled and said: "On the surface, the situation in Taiping Mansion is critical, and Jinyiwei is at a loss. But in fact, in my opinion, this is actually an opportunity? Doesn't this prove that these people
Have you been forced to a dead end and have to jump over the wall?"
"Because of this, His Royal Highness... has done a good thing, that is, at this time of panic, he stabilized people's hearts and led the people to express their feelings! If not, it would be impossible for these people to arrest them one by one.
It’s too easy. But this time, my plea was given to this person.
These people who have reached the end of the road thought they had seized an opportunity. Therefore, I was sure that they would not miss this opportunity, so... When the people expressed their feelings, I had already made arrangements. On the one hand, I ordered the Jin Yiwei to hibernate.
Be on call at all times and observe any unusual behavior."
Zhu Di didn't hesitate at all, and one word immediately popped out of his mouth: "Take it!"
Some people were so sad that they shouted: "Your Majesty, you don't dare to do it anymore."
The man was stunned for a moment, but he still said: "I am lowering my rank to Yu Qian!"
Zhang Anshi sighed: "Killing people will leave trauma, but saving people is different. Saving people can arouse people's joy and satisfaction. So let my uncle handle such terrible things. You better explain it clearly to the soldiers and civilians."
alright."
Zhang Anshi pressed the hilt of the knife at his waist, stood there, breathed a sigh of relief, and then shouted: "Take it down."
"But if he doesn't like someone, he only needs to reprimand him a few words to ruin his reputation. They all say that I am arbitrary and decisive in killing. It's really ridiculous. The most decisive person in killing is not to show blood.
Is it just these people? I employ people who still know the truth that when the water is clear, there will be no fish, and they still know how to forgive."
Zhu Zhanji listened very seriously and said: "Sun Chen understands, this is a thief of literature."
Zhang Anshi waved his hand and sighed.
Zhang Anshi glanced at the ministers, and then said: "Your Majesty, there are many people among the officials."
Zhang Anshi looked up in shock, only to find that he was a civil servant.
Zhu Di squinted his eyes and said: "Originally, studying is a good thing, but when there are more people studying, over time, each other will have their own differences. And those who first studied will use their reputation and connections to make everyone surrender to them.
The underachievers are suppressed, and those who agree with the party attack those who are different. Over time, all the scholars in the world are either his kind or his disciples.
He is an old official. Don’t think that just because he resigned from the official position, you think he is indifferent to fame and fortune. Their ambition for fame and fortune is very big. In their view, being an official is like searching for something, including his relatives, classmates, and disciples.
There are countless people who work as officials. For ordinary scholars, this official position is the first step in their career, but for such people, it is just a burden."
"What a useless scholar." Zhu Di sneered after hearing this.
He had a cold face and tiger eyes, and never looked at these familiar faces.
Zhu Zhanji immediately said: "Of course it is also the genocide."
Zhu Zhanji said from the side: "In that case, why did you collude with the rebels? Are you also trying to be a remnant of the Qian Yuan Dynasty?"
Zhang Anshi's face suddenly turned cold, and he said angrily: "That's nonsense, when did you see it! Okay, leave the chaos of the party to me. But right now, the most important thing is to stabilize people's hearts. Since you are the third class of Taiping Mansion
Officer, at this time, you should go to various prefectures and counties to explain the imperial court's decree on the New Deal. This is a top priority."
Zhang Anshi then smiled and said: "How long have you been coming to Chang Shi's Mansion?"
Then, Zhang Anshi began to roll call.
The remaining ministers all looked quite nervous.
“It would be a great blessing for scholars in this world to be able to study in such academies. After studying in academies, these people either return to their hometowns and open academies to teach their children, or they become officials, and they can be said to be spread all over the world.
"
Zhu Di continued to ask: "Are you unable to restrain a chicken?"
But right now, there are still many things to do. The first thing to do is to stabilize the situation in Taiping Mansion. Solving the hidden dangers is a problem. How to regain confidence and promote development is crucial.
After saying that, he immediately took a step forward and everyone had to disperse.
When Zhang Anshi heard the word Yu Qian, he couldn't help but narrowed his eyes and looked at this man.
"Okay, let's just say goodbye and go get things done quickly. My uncle still has a lot of things to deal with."
A person was taken into custody.
The man said: "He is the ancestor of the family."
Zhu Zhanji: "..."
Of course, this is not the most important thing. Any one of these people who were executed has a huge influence in today's world.
Zhu Di finally gave the instruction: "Remember to search your home!"
After that, Zhu Di said: "This case will be handled by Sun Er."
The man's face was miserable and he choked with sobs: "The grass people pray that your majesty will spare the lives of the grass people. From now on, I will... I will be your majesty's eagle and dog."
"Yes." Zhu Zhanji answered honestly.
"It's okay." Zhang Anshi was relieved.
"Here."
"Who said they are evil people?" Zhang Anshi said in surprise: "Likes and dislikes are relative. Just like in your eyes, your grandpa is the best good man in the world, but what about in the eyes of Jianwen's ministers? The same is true.
The truth is, I am your uncle, do you also think that my uncle is a good person... But in the eyes of some people, my uncle is still heinous."
He observed this young man carefully. He was very young, but he looked stable, but... he seemed very unhappy.
Zhu Zhanji said: "Sun Chen understands, what the emperor means is, don't be deceived by these people."
Zhang Anshi took a deep look at Zhu Zhanji and then said: "If it were Taizu Emperor Gao and His Majesty, what would they do?"
Zhu Zhanji actually lowered his head, considered it carefully, and finally highlighted four words: "Conquer the family and exterminate the clan!"
"Three days."
It was late at night when Zhang Anshi returned to Qixia.
The captains rushed forward and pushed the person to the ground.
Zhu Di nodded. He suddenly thought of something, and then said: "Is this called luring a snake out of its hole?"
Zhu Di pointed at this person with a stern look on his face.
The man said: "Exactly."
Zhu Di glanced at Zhu Zhanji approvingly, and then said enthusiastically: "If it were you, such a literary thief, how would you deal with it?"
Zhu Di pointed to one of the people being escorted: "Is this person also included?"
After saying this, Zhu Di didn't want to stay any longer and simply drove away.
Zhu Di said nothing more and just smiled.
But the person pointed out by Zhu Di turned out to be a Confucian scholar.
To Baiguan, this situation seems like days are like years, and time passes very slowly.
The sky was already filled with stars, and Zhang Anshi sat down with a tired look on his face. He continued to examine the files compiled by the Tiqi during the day.
Zhu Zhanji said it categorically!
Zhu Di looked at Zhu Zhanji in surprise, and all the officials could not help but tremble with fear.
Zhu Zhanji said with a serious look: "My uncle said that only through great destruction can great achievements be made. Those who have always achieved great things have always been scolded by others. People should have their own standards to measure the quality of something. Why bother caring about others?" Where’s the criticism?”
Zhu Zhanji showed a hint of confusion, frowned and said, "But aren't we killing evil people?"
The man shook his head and said, "Although my surname is Wu, I am from Lanxi County, Wuzhou."
"On the other hand, he also communicated privately with the emperor and his grandson, and laid out a dragnet. Just waiting for these people to reveal their flaws, they can immediately take action and catch them all."
Zhu Di stared at this person.
Seeing those ministers leaving one by one, Zhu Zhanji moved closer to Zhang Anshi and grinned: "Uncle, what do you think I did?"
Zhu Zhanji said: "Your Majesty, please make it clear."
For example, people who feel happy will naturally feel happy, but people who feel unhappy will definitely hate the court to the core.
Every time someone was named, some would cry out that they were wronged, some would collapse, and some would pretend to be strong and just smile coldly.
Zhu Di couldn't help but laugh and said: "But if we kill such people, then thousands of scholars in future generations will scold me."
Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but mutter in his heart, it turns out he was teaching again.
Zhu Zhanji said calmly: "If this article is going to kill the thief, neither the emperor nor Sun Chen will be their opponent. As for my uncle, although he usually reads with Spring and Autumn in mind, if it is different from this article The thief talks about reason, but he is vulnerable. Since the reason does not make sense, then he has to use the method that the emperor is best at. Only in this way can this problem be solved. What's more, what they are involved in is treason and treason. The annihilation of the clan is the law of the ancestors. Since there are laws, there can be no favoritism."
After a pause, he continued: You must not underestimate this incompetent scholar. People like Wu Shidao and their disciples once built large academies in eastern Zhejiang and Jianghuai, and now the more well-known Diao Taiwan Academy and Dumen Academy were both built by their disciples."
Zhu Di said, his voice getting colder and colder, he said: "For people like Wu Shidao, if any scholar dares to disobey his Neo-Confucianism, he will mobilize his party members and so-called friends to attack him.
Not even a shred of sand will be tolerated. Now that his grandson claims to be a powerless scholar in front of you, don’t believe it. The people they kill with their mouths are by no means less than the people I kill with my sword.”
Zhang Anshi's voice was very steady, but it seemed like a reminder.
This person said: "Confucius said Chengren, Mencius said righteousness, they just want to sacrifice their lives for righteousness. I am just a scholar who has no power to tie a chicken. Today...now that it has reached this point, there is nothing to say.
Already."
Zhu Di actually did not get angry, but sat up straight and said: "Let me tell you one more thing. His grandfather Wu Shidao was a famous scholar. He associated with great Confucian scholars such as Huang Shu, Liu Guan, Wu Lai, Zheng Fuchu, etc.
These people, can you
You may not be familiar with it, but it doesn’t matter. You only need to know that starting from Emperor Taizu Gao, among the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty, Song Lian, who was praised by Emperor Taizu Gao as the first civil servant in the founding of the country, was their student
disciple."
At this time, Zhu Di looked at the man and said, "Do my grandson's words make sense?"
The calls for mercy are endless.
He glanced at Zhu Zhanji and said, "Grandson, do you think he is a scholar?"
"Could this person also have the surname Wu?"
The man shook his head and said: "Although my ancestor was an official in the Yuan Dynasty, I don't miss the previous Yuan Dynasty."
Zhu Di smiled: "It's too late to want to be an eagle dog now. My grandson's words are my words. I opened this golden mouth. How can I break my promise?"
Zhu Zhanji said: "Why is that?"
"I'm getting older. I just want to go back to my hometown to retire, and I don't have an ambition to pursue an official career." The man said slowly and authentically.
At this time, someone appeared at Zhang Anshi's desk, and then sent the latest report to Zhang Anshi.
Zhu Di said: "I am quite impressed with you. You were an official in the Imperial Academy and then resigned?"
And the execution of these people will inevitably lead to certain consequences.
Yang Rong was still calm and said: "Everyone should perform his duties."
Zhu Di smiled and said: "If he is a scholar who studies Neo-Confucianism, he will include it even if the article is inferior. But if he does not regard Neo-Confucianism as the standard, he will look down on no matter how good the article is, and will definitely classify it as inferior and denounce it as deviant.
.Grandson, don’t underestimate his book editing. In reading, they are no different from me, the emperor. But if you teach them to appreciate it, you can create a lot of momentum and make this person famous far and wide."
Zhu Di couldn't help but ask: "Who is the leader?"
The clerk also looked very tired, but at the same time, the look he was looking at Zhang Anshi was very different. Those eyes were very sharp, but they did not harbor any good intentions.
Zhang Anshi said: "Exactly! I took this opportunity to immediately arrest these people who were fomenting trouble, and immediately started interrogation. This time the petition was very sudden, and those people didn't have much time to prepare. They were temporary.
Contingency, and once it is a temporary response, there will definitely be many flaws. As long as I seize these flaws, I can catch big fish."
"Who are you?" Zhang Anshi raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's your name?"
"There are many leaders." Zhang Anshi said: "Among them are high officials of the imperial court and famous Confucians of the time."
After Zhu Di heard this, he said: "I remembered, what is the relationship between Wu Shidao and you?"
Zhu Zhanji said: "It looks like."
Regardless of whether someone is in trouble or not, it would be impossible not to be horrified when a young man talks about murder without blinking his eyes.
Zhu Zhanji said: "But I think killing is more enjoyable."
Zhang Anshi said: "This is your fault. You can clearly say that the law of the ancestors should be followed, but you insist on saying that I think the clan should be exterminated. The former is to abide by the ancestral system, while the latter shows your ruthlessness
, A person should not show his ruthlessness easily, but should say the most beautiful words and use the cruelest hands."
Zhu Zhanji said: "Your Majesty taught me to deal with it. I plan to exterminate all these people. What do you think, uncle?"
After hearing this, Zhu Zhanji opened his eyes slightly, showing a look of sudden realization, and said: "I understand, just like uncle, he always says no, no, no, but in fact... he has already put the things in his pocket.
In my arms."
A directory was taken out from Zhang Anshi's sleeve.
Another person said: "It was him, he was the one who instigated it. At that time, I was just instigated by others..."
"They often accept conquests, stay in the court for a few years, and then resign. They either compile books or teach. They are free and comfortable and have a literary reputation. But there are also many things in the world that are manipulated.
In their hands, many times, if they want to do something, they only need to revise a letter, and sometimes the effect is more effective than my imperial edict."
More than thirty people were singled out one by one.
Zhu Di asked: "What is your relationship with the Wu family in Jiangxi?"
Listening to these noisy sounds, Zhu Di just felt tired.
The man said: "I will be punished by death."
Next, I will be very busy.
"Why did you resign?"
So Zhu Di was shocked and couldn't help asking: "Why is that so?"
Then, Zhu Di looked at Zhang Anshi and said, "Who else is involved in this matter? Jin Yiwei will take care of it as soon as possible."
He said, shaking his head feebly.
The captains immediately twisted and dragged him away.
Zhu Di seemed to know what he was thinking, and said: "Don't underestimate the word "teaching". What they pay attention to is teaching to their children, and they also pay attention to the friendship between teachers and students. In addition, many civil servants in the DPRK came from them.
Disciple, things are not very simple here.
Let’s just say that this person’s ancestor Wu Shidao not only served as an official in the Yuan Dynasty, but also had many disciples and former officials. After that, this person compiled books and asked readers to record them in his books. But you know,
How did he compile the book?"
Zhang Anshi reached out and picked up the tea cup on the table. He did not lower his head to drink tea, but nodded and said: "In three days, I have gradually become familiar with the work at hand. Are you used to coming here? How about food and accommodation?"
Yu Qian pursed his lips and looked unmoved, but he looked very calm: "We have arranged a place to live, and the food is good, but I am not used to it."
"Why aren't you used to it?" Zhang Anshi couldn't help but asked in astonishment.
Yu Qian pursed his lips again and said nothing, but after a while, he suddenly raised his head and said: "In the eyes of outsiders, this is a wealthy place, but in the eyes of subordinates, this county prince's palace is just like the palace of the king of hell!"
"Bang..." Zhang Anshi's hand holding the tea cup trembled, and then the tea cup fell to pieces.
