Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The civil servants of the Ming Dynasty have always had a tradition of fighting in the main hall. It is estimated that Zhu Yuanzhang killed too many civil servants when he was in power. Then Zhu Di, the fourth son of Lao Zhu, inherited the tradition of Lao Tzu after he became the emperor, and killed the most famous man at that time.  Fang Xiaoru, a famous Confucian scholar, killed ten tribes. You killed the father and son, and I killed them again. The killings made the civil servants tremble with fear.  To put it bluntly, the status of civil servants at that time was really low, and they didn't even dare to breathe when they saw the emperor.  Until Zhu Di's death, the successors of the old Zhu family were all good children who grew up in the deep palace. They had been ruined by the Four Books and Five Classics taught by the civil servants on weekdays, and they imitated others' tricks.  As a result, the civil servants became more and more arrogant.  Later, the civil servants felt that it was not enough, so they simply started practicing martial arts in the Tai Chi Hall, and fights often occurred if they disagreed.  The most famous one was the Tumubao Incident, in which Yingzong was captured, more than 200,000 troops were defeated, and almost all of the more than 100 civil servants and generals who participated in the expedition died on the battlefield.  When the news reached the capital, hundreds of officials wailed and burst into tears in the palace.  The ministers immediately invited the Empress Dowager to ask her to appoint a new king. Chen Jian, the imperial envoy, immediately listed the crimes of Wang Zhen, the eunuch who had bewitched the Yingzong's personal conquest, in the main hall, and threatened: "Wang Zhen's crime cannot be punished, and he will die unjustly. Your Highness, as  If his family is not punished according to the law, all the ministers will die here today." At this time, Wang Zhen's best friend Ma Shun stepped forward to protect Wang Zhen and chased the ministers away.  During the incident, Wang Hong became angry when he saw that Ma Shun dared to speak harshly. He grabbed Ma Shun and started punching and kicking him, killing him on the spot.  The angry officials beat Wang Zhen's other two best friends, eunuchs Mao Gui and Wang Changsui, to death on the spot.  These things were all done in front of the Empress Dowager, which shows how courageous the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty were.  When the Yan Guan surnamed Yang was beaten to the ground, the Yan Guan's eyes immediately turned red. The two Yan Guan next to him and Chen Yihang immediately rushed towards Yue Yang.  "Well done!" Seeing these Yan Guan rushing towards Yue Yang, he was not surprised but overjoyed. He immediately took two steps to get up and kicked the side. He only heard a muffled sound and the young Yan Guan was immediately kicked away for five seconds.  Six meters away, the whole person fell heavily to the hard ground and became motionless. Blood flowed from his mouth and nose, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.  After Yue Yang landed, he gave an elbow to the famous official next to him.  It hit him in the ribs, causing the guy to squat down in pain so much that he even dropped his black gauze hat. Then Yue Yang grabbed his hair and pushed his knee in his face.  "Bang" The famous official also collapsed to the ground motionless.  Just like that, the three officials who rushed out first were all beaten to the ground by Yue Yang, but Chen Yihang, the culprit, was so frightened that he stood motionless on the spot.  Yue Yang took two steps forward and grinned at him: "Why do you still want to fight?" "No no no no" Chen Yihang shook his head as fast as a rattle with his legs  Shaking like chaff, almost crying, what is all this?  Isn't it just to impeach a person? Why did it happen like this?  The entire hall was also silent. Many people's mouths were big enough to put eggs in. No one, including Chongzhen, expected that Yue Yang would fight in front of the civil and military officials of the dynasty, and the officials who would impeach him.  They were all knocked to the ground.  It was not until this moment that the Han generals responsible for maintaining the safety of the hall reacted.  They each ran in from outside the Tai Chi Hall holding spears and halberds.  The surrounding ministers were speechless when they looked at Yue Yang, who was standing there with his head held high, and at the three famous officials who were lying on the ground, not knowing whether they were alive or dead, and Chen Yihang, who was still shaking.  Only then did they realize that the person standing in front of them was a famous military commander with outstanding military exploits. This man could lead an army to destroy the Manchu Tatars. These officials actually wanted to use violence against him.  Isn't this the birthday man who hangs himself and becomes impatient?  After knocking several officials to the ground, Yue Yang patted the dust on his body as if nothing happened, and then bowed to Chongzhen and saluted: "Your Majesty, I'm sorry. Just now, these blind fools dared to do the following.  I have no choice but to retaliate against you. I hope your majesty will see clearly!" After saying that, Yue Yang turned to Chen Yihang and said with a smile, "Master Chen, don't you think so?" At this time, Yue Yang was simply a man.  A devil who returned from hell saw three of his colleagues beaten alive by Yue Yang and fell to the ground. He didn't know whether they were alive or dead. He was so frightened that he was stunned.  Now this devil actually grinned back at him. Chen Yihang couldn't hold himself up any longer. He knelt down with a thud and said in a trembling voice: "II, I" Seeing that Chen Yihang was so pusy.  The surrounding ministers all frowned secretly, this guy is too useless.  Just now he was so aggressive that he wanted to kill someone, but now he is so scared.  It's so embarrassing.  It¡¯s just contempt, but as civil servants, we all?We still have to talk about class stance, so no one showed it.  When Chongzhen saw that Yue Yang actually beat the three famous officials half to death in front of the civil and military officials of the dynasty, he was secretly frightened and frowned secretly. This matter really made him very embarrassed. After a while, he shouted: "Yue Yang  , although it was Yang Aiqing and others who took action first, but you were too vicious, and three important officials of the court were beaten and injured, so I have no choice but to deal with you. So, I will fine you a year's salary. If anything happens in the future.  I will never be rude if you do it again! If you do it again, please send someone to take Yang Aiqing and the others down to the imperial doctor for treatment!" When Chongzhen said this, everyone could see that their boss was trying to stand up to Yue Yang.  If someone is injured in front of many people, he will be fined a year's salary indifferently. It is not so much a punishment as an excuse to swat flies.  At this time, someone was dissatisfied and stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Marquis Zhongyong beat the court official for no reason. It is really disrespectful and disrespectful to the king. How can he be leniently punished with a fine? Such evil people should be handed over to the police."  Dali Temple will punish you severely. " "Hey, who is this, speaking so rudely!" Yue Yang was not happy when he heard this, and shouted at the official in red robes: "You old man just went blind, didn't you?  Did you see that they beat me first? A few seventh-level officials actually wanted to beat up a high-ranking official. If such behavior spreads out, will the dignity of the officialdom be enough?  If word spreads, everyone will follow suit in the future. Any low-ranking official can beat a superior official in front of the emperor, and anyone can point at the first-rank officials and curse them. Our Ming Dynasty is still in chaos, isn't it?  ? And what are your intentions when you say this? Do you want to harm the Ming Dynasty's officialdom? " "You" This official was speechless for a while after being scolded by Yue Yang. He wanted to refute, but in fact he looked carefully.  I think Yue Yang is right.  No matter in any era, the officialdom is the most respectable group. Why do officials all over the world work hard to climb up?  Isn¡¯t it just to be able to climb on top of others and enjoy the panoramic view of the mountains and the pleasure of one person being lower than ten thousand people?  If this system is broken, and any petty official as big as a sesame seed or a mung bean can point their noses and scold them in the future, then what¡¯s the point of their hard work climbing up the ladder?  Although the people on the side also wanted to punish this lawless guy, they didn't have any good reasons. After all, it was those officials who made the first move just now. Although Yue Yang's attack was a bit harsh, they were forced to fight back.  You can't just let him stand still and let him be beaten.  Just when many people were filled with hatred but had no choice but to do anything, an official suddenly shouted: "Yueyang, let's leave this matter aside, but you led troops to Beijing without permission from the cabinet and the Ministry of War. What else can you do about this matter?"  How to explain it?" Hearing that someone was still struggling with this issue, Yue Yang's face suddenly darkened, "I have already said before that my Xuan army came to Beijing in accordance with the emperor's imperial decree. Do you think that the emperor did not  Do you have the right to mobilize troops to the capital?" "Of course we have it, but" "That's enough!" The civil servant wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Chongzhen sitting on the dragon throne.  With a loud sound, he slapped the dragon case in front of him and shouted in a deep voice: "This matter is my decision. Wang Aiqing, do you have any objections?" Chongzhen became so angry that all the ministers were speechless, and the boss said it was his.  Decide, if you still hold on to this, you will be in trouble with your boss.  Yue Yang looked at this guy with a sneer and secretly despised him. These people are all free. Didn't you see that the four cabinet ministers and the Minister of War, Lu Xiangsheng, were standing nearby without saying a word? What are you making fools of? Do you really think the emperor is?  Decorations.  By the way, several academicians in the cabinet were in a dilemma at this time. This time Chongzhen issued a secret order to mobilize Yueyang to Beijing but did not even say hello to them. This was too disrespectful to them.  But this matter really needs to be put in name to say that Chongzhen did nothing wrong. The emperor is the symbol of the entire country. All the soldiers and horses in the world are at his disposal. They have no freedom over which soldiers and horses he wants to send to him.  The right to make irresponsible remarks.  Zhou Tingru thought for a long time. He knew that as the chief minister of the cabinet, he had to speak when encountering such a thing. Whether he supported or opposed it, he had to express an attitude. Finally, he stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I think that your Majesty is a  The leader of the world has the right to send troops to the capital, but this incident is too sudden, so I think that if this happens again next time, I need to inform you, otherwise I can only pray for help. "  Chongzhen also knew that Zhou Tingru was very restrained when he said this. He nodded and said: "What Zhou Aiqing said makes sense. This matter belongs to me, Meng Lang. If I have this matter again next time, I will discuss it with you all." See  When the chief minister and the emperor had reached an agreement, the officials would notWhat did he say? Finally, with the gloomy expressions of the officials, Chongzhen announced that he had begun to withdraw from the court.  (To be continued)
