Regarding Zhu Youxiao's question, Cao Shijie said matter-of-factly: "It was Fang Congzhe who deceived His Majesty Shenzong with his sweet words, and colluded with Concubine Zheng and Li Xuan to deceive the late Emperor and His Majesty, so that he could dominate the court. This is also his major crime!"
Zhu Youxiao shook his head and said: "Your statement is too superficial. The reason why Fang Congzhe has been alone for nearly ten years is because of the constant party disputes in the court. Donglin, Chu Party, Zheng Party, Jin Party, plus the inner court, can It is said that there are many people harassing each other and refusing to give in. Only an old foxan old minister like Fang Congzhe can deal with the forces of all parties with ease. What would it be like if there was no Fang Congzhe in the court? Is it really true? Do you want one party to drive all the other forces out of the court? If that is the case, how much energy will this fight consume Ming Dynasty? Therefore, Fang Congzhe cannot be without Fang Congzhe in the court, and you want to bring him down as a traitor. What do you think? Who else can reconcile this situation besides him?"
All the supervisors were stunned by Zhu Youxiao's words. Although they were studying in the Imperial College, they still only had a partial understanding of the affairs in the imperial court. After listening to Zhu Youxiao's words today, they had a slight understanding of what the water in the court was like. How deep!
But Cao Shijie said unconvinced: "Although this little brother's words have some truth, they are all lies. The factions in the court are becoming increasingly fierce. Isn't it because there are no gentlemen in the court? If the Dukes of Donglin are reused, the court will There must be peace in the hall, and the Dukes of Donglin can also assist in the cause of opening up the world today!"
Cao Shijie's words immediately received responses from the supervisors, which shows the Donglin Party's status in the hearts of these young students. However, Zhu Youxiao still found that a very small number of supervisors had unnatural looks on their faces. It was obvious that these people should be other people. People from faction!
Zhu Youxiao and other supervisors became quiet again, and then he said: "You keep saying that if the Dukes of Donglin are reused, you can do anything, but why do you classify Yang Lian as a traitor?"
A look of disdain appeared on Cao Shijie's face, and he snorted coldly: "Yang Lian was originally a member of Donglin, but since he got the emperor's favor, he completely forgot about Donglin's purpose and became a villain who sells favors to get credit. They are not worthy to be compared with the Dukes of Donglin!"
"Hahahaha!" Zhu Youxiao laughed up to the sky after hearing this, then glared at Cao Shijie and shouted loudly: "Although Yang Lian was born in Donglin, he is an official of the imperial court and a minister of the king. In the remaining months, Yang Lian has been mediating He reconciled the interests of all forces between Dong Lin and the various parties in the DPRK, and won Liu Yishen to join the cabinet. These were all things he did for Dong Lin and the court, but you call these people traitors. I don¡¯t know what to say, and Wang An is just an old royal servant. Although he is the eunuch Bingbi, the eunuch, he is not greedy for money, and he does not exercise power. He only serves tea and water every day, and even criticizes people. Even if you don't do it, you will call such a good old man a traitor. You have no knowledge of the affairs of the DPRK. You only accuse the ministers of the DPRK and spread rumors wantonly based on some groundless conjectures. It is really abominable!"
When Cao Shijie was accused like this by Zhu Youxiao, he completely stopped thinking about climbing high branches. His face naturally turned cold, and he retorted: "It has been less than a month since the emperor took the throne, and several major cases have already occurred in the court. Fang Congzhe , Yang Lian, and Wang An, as close ministers of the Emperor, if the Emperor behaves inappropriately and they do not try to dissuade them, but instead condone them, it is a major crime. Even if you are eloquent, you will not be able to absolve them of their crime!"
Zhu Youxiao sneered: "You said that the emperor's behavior was inappropriate, but could it be said that it was the things you just mentioned?"
Cao Shijie nodded fiercely and said: "It is exactly these four things: the establishment of a sea ban, the murder in front of the palace, the execution of ministers, and the connivance of the Jinyi Guards to massacre the place!"
Zhu Youxiao glanced at the supervisors around him and said calmly: "Do you also think that these four things are the emperor's improper behavior?"
Those supervisors were not fools. From Zhu Youxiao's words, they could tell that the young master in front of them was very familiar with the affairs of the court. He was obviously not an ordinary person. They didn't care about criticizing the ministers before, but now when it came to the affairs of the current emperor, these Of course the supervisor didn¡¯t dare to say anything!
But the little girl who was disguised as a man saw that Zhu Youxiao had the upper hand and ran out to fight against the injustice. The girl raised her little head and said sternly: "Although I am a female, I also know that the sea ban is to stop Japanese pirates. Let's start." The sea will let the Japanese pirates come back, and then the people along the coast of the Ming Dynasty will be massacred by the Japanese pirates. Today's emperor is imposing a sea ban in order to compete with the people, regardless of the lives and deaths of the people. It is the ministers' responsibility to stop the emperor when he does something wrong. It was his duty, but the emperor killed ministers in the court, which was stupid and unethical. In order to covet the land of the common people, he actually used the royal guards to kill the gentry, and also killed the court officials for this. This is greed for profit. Isn't this inappropriate conduct? "
Where did Cao Shijie and the supervisors thinkThis little girl dared to say so, and everyone's heart was in their throats. You must know that rebuking the king in public like this was a serious crime of disrespect in any dynasty. It could range from being sent into exile to being beheaded and confiscated. Even they These people on the sidelines are also involved!
Zhu Youxiao also didn't expect that what he had done would be said like this. He scratched his forehead helplessly and said with a wry smile: "You little girl dare to say it, but the charges you mentioned are no longer inappropriate behavior. Such The emperor is comparable to Jie and Zhou, even if he is hung on the city gate tower to dry, it is not an exaggeration!"
"Shut up! Who are you? How dare you say such treacherous words? Go to the government quickly and let the government arrest this wanton person!"
"Yes, go and report it to the official quickly. This person made disrespectful remarks and slandered His Majesty. We are all witnesses!"
"Why are you waiting for someone from the government to come? Let's catch this guy first and then send him to the government for punishment!"
If the little girl's words just made these supervisors feel uncomfortable, Zhu Youxiao's words were completely fatal. If these words were spread, everyone present would not escape death, so these supervisors were all talking about it. So excited, some people even wanted to come up and send Zhu Youxiao to the government to excuse themselves!
Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, Yang Lian, Wang An, and the guards could no longer watch the excitement. Yang Lian shouted: "You must not be impudent in front of His Majesty!"
Wang An also shouted repeatedly: "Escort me, protect me quickly!"
The accompanying guards had actually rushed forward and protected Zhu Youxiao before the supervisors met him. The supervisors were completely dumbfounded when they saw such a posture. Even Cao Shijie's eyes were straight. , his mind was full of blanks, he never thought that he would write a letter to the Meridian Gate in order to attract attention, but he would provoke the current emperor!
"You are still not polite when meeting His Majesty, are you planning to rebel?" Wang An walked quickly to Zhu Youxiao, pointed at a group of stunned supervisors, and asked sternly.
Only then did the supervisors react. They knelt down and saluted Zhu Youxiao unevenly. However, these supervisors were really scared. They knelt on the ground one by one, stuck out their buttocks, and buried their faces deeply. He stood up, his whole body trembling slightly, like a frightened quail!
On the contrary, it was the little girl who was disguised as a woman. After bowing, she raised her head and looked at Zhu Youxiao up and down. She looked very curious. Zhu Youxiao looked at the supervisors on the ground and the little girl who was not afraid of anything. , shook his head very helplessly.
"Today I am paying a private visit incognito, so there is no need to pay such a courtesy. Everyone, please get up!" Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and said very casually.
