Chapter 103: Court Staff

Before entering the capital, the little eunuch left by Chen Ju, a subordinate of Yongding, told everything that Chen Ju had left Beijing in less than two days with a very fast speed.

First, Zhang Juzheng was not in the cabinet for a few days, and a group of talents from the Hanlin Academy wore red robes to report the good news to the assistant Lu Diaoyang.

Subsequently, the Hanlin Academy editor Wu Zhongxing, the Hanlin Academy reviewed Zhao Yongxian, the Ministry of Justice Ai Mu, and the Ministry of Justice Chen Sixiao. These four officials who submitted memorials to impeach Zhang Juzheng, and the emperor decided to punish them.

The two scepters in the front were 60, and the two scepters in the back were 80. They were expelled from the capital and were demoted to the people, and they would never be used. The frontier was not included in the amnesty.

As soon as he entered Yongding Gate, guarding the mountain and river altar and the south intersection of Zhengyangmen in the heaven and earth altar, two masters of blush robes looked at each other. Chen Ju swallowed his saliva uneasy and rubbed his hands and said, "This, this is really a fight, Chen Shuai, you have to persuade the emperor to do so!"

Chen Mu didn't have the heart to hear what Chen Ju was saying. He held his horse's footsteps and stopped. After a while, he suddenly frowned and turned his face into a courageous manner. He said to the eunuch who reported the news: "Which border is sent to the border, which border?"

"Oh, Jinghai Bo, which border do you still have time to control? This is not what happened. Grandpa Emperor thinks that the matter is no longer the officials in the court opposing Mr. Zhang's love, but because His Majesty is provoked, and he must not be punished like this!"

Chen Ju was a palace man, and knew a lot about the precedents of many things. He was so anxious that he jumped up. Seeing that there were no one on the street, he pulled Chen Mu to the side and whispered: "The court stick is a common method used by the ancestors and ministers to speak out in a bad way. No, the ministers who speak out in a blunt manner have to take off their pants and beat them since Jiajing. Since Zhang Ge Lao was in power, the court had not used the court stick. As long as the stick was beaten, the reputation of the Ge Lao would be ruined for life.

"Who have you ever seen a person who has been alive and been beaten by a court stick without reputation? This is not to punish them, but to fulfill them!"

This is another degree of wealth and danger.

Four people, two students of Zhang Juzheng, and two fellow townsmen of Zhang Juzheng, have a qualifications for officials in the court, but they are not as good as Chen Mu. They will get dozens of sticks tomorrow and earn sympathy from the world, proving that the emperor is not open to his or her ways, and the chief assistant is not doing well, defending the core values ​​of the world, and his qualifications are rising rapidly. After gaining a reputation of not being afraid of power, he becomes a rising star in the political arena.

If you go to the frontier to teach for as little as three or four years, or as long as more than ten years. If you have a chance to turn things around, it will be useless if you never describe anything. You have to use it.

Anything that can be used by people is a double-edged sword. Since we use morality to govern the country, we must accept the false aristocratic nature of the moral commanding heights; if we use religion to govern the country, we must also accept the false truth in ignorance; progress lies in removing the false and retaining the truth, but more often, false may not be true or false, and truth may not be false, but only for human purposes.

Before Chen Mu could express his thoughts, another idle eunuch came quickly from the long street and reported to Chen Ju: "Mr. Wang, a Hanlin Academy, led a group of Hanlin Academy to the palace to ask the emperor to pardon the four of them, and went to Zhang Ge Lao's mansion again!"

Two Chens looked at each other, and Chen Ju said anxiously: "Let's go, let's enter the palace!"

Chen Mu raised his hand and said, "No hurry, I will beat the court stick tomorrow. Let's go to the Pavilion Master's Mansion and take a look first."

Mr. Wang of the Hanlin Academy is Wang Xijue, the head of the Hanlin Academy. It is inevitable that he will take a group of Hanlin to Zhang Juzheng's residence to plead with him.

With the public and private matters, he is the chief official and should plead for his subordinates, not to mention that he would be beaten to death just by submitting the memorial. This way of handling this is too much - I am afraid that none of the four people would expect the emperor to take out a court stick before submitting the memorial.

Not to mention sixty, even if you are thirty, you can kill someone.

But who can they ask for?

Empress Dowager Li? They couldn't see Empress Dowager Li, so they could only ask Feng Bao for her if she wanted to ask Feng Bao. In the past, how many people in the court could regard Feng Bao as personal?

Just Zhang Juzheng, these four people scolded Zhang Juzheng. The governor of the East Factory wanted to catch them in the black prison and kill them, and they still pleaded for mercy?

Then we can only plead with Zhang Juzheng.

It was only two streets, but in a while, Chen Mu saw that there were a colorful official uniform in front of Zhang Juzheng's mansion, wearing square scarves and soap boots, dressed like a mansion, bowed and bowed in front of the mansion, and then went in, shook his head with a sad face, and then went in, and then shook his head with a sad face when he came out.

I'm having fun with these people.

Chen Mu took Chen Ju, and the two of them took care of the blush robe and asked the little eunuch to lead the horse. They mingled into the crowd in the blink of an eye.

There is a piece of official uniform, and no one cares about who is who is. Anyway, those who come here will be their own people.

When people gather together, they have aura, or momentum. The chief assistant talks loudly in front of the door, and the people are full of voices. The soldiers are the most sensitive to this aura. When they are in the middle, Chen Mu feels one thing: he has won a battle.

Scholars are very brave, which is a character that has been cultivated for a long time, especially when fighting against power. There is a natural bonus. Success or failure has its own potential, and knowledge can be divided into high and low. The limitations of the times have given them the upper limit, but this courage is probably very tough.

As for saying that if you have nothing to do, you will be able to repay the king if you die in danger?

Only if you don’t dare to die can you say this. It is already good to be able to die to repay the king when the situation is over.

For example, Shangshu of the Imperial Republic of Qian, when the Qing army came, he could put down his face and surrender. When the struggle in the Qing court failed, he could turn around and connect with the underground organization that anti-Qing and restoration of Ming Dynasty. It was neither "stood by the sidelines" nor had he already transcended the category of "one death". He would be ridiculed when he said that. After all, it was not so appropriate to repay the kindness of the Lord next time.

But how many people can compare with his ability to act?

Is it true that scholars cannot stand horses, wear armor, carry swords, and fight? No, those scholars who can wear armor and leap and dance swords are all dead.

How could those dead people have the opportunity to leave a big talk except for a few poems of destiny?

However, Chen Mu couldn't like this group of people. He and Chen Ju were mixed in like nothing happened. People around him didn't know these two robes when they saw each other, and even bowed to each other and eavesdropped on their words.

"I have a close relationship with Zhang Sixiu, and today I am ruthless. I asked him to advise his father not to take love and to keep Ding You in charge. Later, he asked him to persuade his father to save all the gentlemen, but he said that his father was loyal to the country!"

A young Hanlin Academy editor said to everyone: "I told him that a father who robs love is not pure loyalty. Being a son cannot dissuade your father, and your son cannot persuade you, you are not a filial son, nor a good son who dares to give righteous advice. You father and son will be scolded by future generations!"

Chen Mu pressed Chen Ju with his elbow and said to the editor of Hanlin Academy. Chen Ju whispered: "The top scholar Shen Maoxue, he was beaten, but he held down his memorial."

"There is also Li Yihe, who is the same as the elder of the Pavilion. I wrote to him, hoping that he is highly respected and able to follow the example of saving Gao Gong. But he said that he didn't think that I was the top scholar, and the ethical principles I mentioned were useless. It was said that the reason why the Song Dynasty declined was because of us. Instead, it was said that Jiangling's capture of intelligence was the kingly way of governing the world, and he told me not to be rude. My talent was still not understood, a joke!"

Li Yihe and Chen Mu knew that this was the name of Li Youzi, the Minister of the Ministry of Works of Nanjing, and was also Zhang Juzheng's in-laws.

Chen Mu just walked forward. As the saying goes, a gentleman is a beauty that a donkey man can't avoid being a commonplace. Seeing that the top scholar wants to do something but is not powerful, he wants to go over and give Chen Mao a trick, and then send a memorial to the court. Once the memorial is suppressed, he will write another letter. He will always be beaten together.

In the future, I will never be able to become the "Five Gentlemen with Love" and regret it for life.

You Qi in front of the mansion said to Wang Xijue with a wry smile on his face: "Oh, Mr. Wang..."

Before he finished speaking, Wang Xijue could no longer bear it this time, so he pushed You Qi away and rushed in. This was the charge of the Hanlins. A large group of people rushed into Zhang Juzheng's mansion, and You Qi was pushed to the ground and could not stop him!
