Chapter 240 The Ruthless People of Daming(2/2)
In fact, Zhu Youxiao wanted to see if there were any familiar people. If there were any, then choose them.
He didn't want to miss some talents in vain, so that they could not get into the Royal Academy for one reason or another. This was a huge loss for himself and for the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Youxiao was in a good mood and kept slipping until the sun was about to set before returning to the palace.
After returning to the palace, Zhu Youxiao went to find Empress Zhang. He bought a lot of gifts for Empress Zhang. When he was in a good mood, he naturally wanted to talk to Empress Zhang.
The nightingale sings in a gentle way, and the stream flows long.
The next morning, Zhu Youxiao got up early one morning, and after exercising, he also ate a lot of more breakfast.
Seeing the list handed over by Chen Hong, Zhu Youxiao started to read it with great interest.
Soon he discovered an interesting name:
Cao Wenzhao.
I wonder if this Cao Wenzhao was the one he thought of?
But there should be no surprises, right?
Let Chen Hong and the others check it back.
Continue to look through, Zhu Youxiao soon saw Wu Xiang's name.
Wu Xiang is also a ruthless person. The most important thing is that he has a son with mixed reputations and criticisms, the famous Wu Sangui.
In addition, Zhu Youxiao also saw several acquaintances.
One of them was a special person who attracted the attention of Zhu Youxiao. This is a very ordinary name called Li Xin.
Zhu Youxiao's eyes fell on his hometown. Kaifeng Prefecture, Henan, might be the one he thought of.
So Zhu Youxiao waved to Chen Hong and "Gyping Ink."
I picked up a pen and wrote down a few names.
After drying a little, he handed the paper to Chen Hong. Zhu Youxiao said expressionlessly: "Let me check it out."
"Yes, the emperor." Chen Hong took it and quickly agreed.
Although I don’t know why the emperor wanted to check these people, since they have to check, let them check and check, and there may be a lot of gains.
Not long after Chen Hong left, Zhu Youxiao heard a noise and frowned.
For Zhu Youxiao, Xiyuan is a good place.
The environment here is pleasant, the most important thing is that it is quiet and no one disturbs me even if I live here.
But now it is actually noisy. The key is who dares to make noise on his territory?
Just when Zhu Youxiao wanted to ask someone to ask clearly, Chen Hong had already run in from outside.
He came to Zhu Youxiao in a sweat and knelt on the ground with a plop.
At this time, his face was very frightened, his whole body became a little numb, and his voice trembled: "Emperor, something happened!"
After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao suddenly turned cold and asked in a deep voice: "What happened?"
"There are many officials gathered outside the Xiyuan Gate, and they are kneeling to advise!" Chen Hong said in a trembling tone, letting the cold sweat confuse his eyes, and he dared not raise his hand to wipe it.
After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao's brows tightly twisted together.
Since the great ritual dispute during the Jiajing period, kneeling down to advice was a very sensitive matter in the Ming Dynasty and a very taboo thing for the emperor.
Of course, in the eyes of civil servants, things are just the opposite. Especially the sentence that shouted back then, "The country has raised scholars for 150 years, and it is today that we have died of justice!"
It's still shocking to shout now.
Yang Tinghe's son, the top scholar Yang Shen, also said: "The country has been raising scholars for 150 years and died by upholding integrity and righteousness, just today."
Then, editor Wang Yuanzheng, and the staff officer Zhang Chong and others blocked and tried to retain all the ministers at the south of Jinshui Bridge. He Mengchun, Jin Xianmin, Xu Wenhua and others called on all the ministers.
Then more than 200 court ministers knelt at Zuoshunmen to ask Shizong to change his will.
After this incident, group kneeling for advice was a taboo topic. Because that time, Emperor Jiajing did not compromise, and he asked someone to carry a stick and beat everyone back hard.
But it was also from that time that Emperor Jiajing's reputation plummeted, and there were no ministers in the court to support him anymore, so he could only use Yan Song and others.
Now that the ministers kneeled down to advise, Zhu Youxiao's face suddenly became very ugly.
He knew that he would have this day, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.
Zhu Youxiao sighed helplessly.
