Xu Guangqi¡¯s words were extremely rude, and the officials who were knocking on the door were naturally very angry when they heard this!
Someone immediately retorted: "Although Long Live today is wise, he is still young after all. Now he has been deceived by traitors and thieves, and he wants to re-employ military generals. This is the way to bring disaster. We are planning for the country and Long Live. How can we say that we are here to kowtow?" Is it unreasonable to make trouble? Master Xu, as the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, should work together with us to persuade Long live to take back his life, so as to protect the eternal stability of the Ming Dynasty!"
Xu Guangqi had a look of disdain on his face when he heard this, and sneered: "You don't want to do your job well. You will only think about random things all day long. According to my opinion, today's Long Live takes one step at a time to see everything. Since Long Live this matter Having made a decision, there must be arrangements afterwards, so it is only right that you leave as soon as possible and do your best to do your own thing!"
At this point, Xu Guangqi glanced around and saw several officials from the Ministry of Industry kneeling in the crowd. He immediately blew his beard and shouted: "The Ministry of Industry has been ordered by the emperor to verify the list of craftsmen and utensils across the country. Everyone is busy waiting." I'm so happy that I've only just caught a few glimpses of you, but you still have the leisure to fool around here. If you don't go back quickly to do your errands, I will personally write this letter and ask you to be dismissed from your post!"
Those officials from the Ministry of Industry were hesitating. They didn't know whether they should go back in despair or fight with the emperor to the end despite losing their official positions. Now that they were scolded by their own superiors, they immediately found the steps and did it one by one. With a look of unwillingness, he stood up and walked out of the crowd!
For some reason, watching several officials from the Ministry of Works leave, many people felt envious in their hearts. Now they also want someone to scold them and drive them back to the Yamen, but their immediate superiors do not know where they died. I went and now I can¡¯t even find the steps!
In fact, it was not that these officials were not determined to defeat the emperor, but that Zhu Youxiao did not follow the routine at all, and took these people by surprise. After all, in order to challenge the emperor, which is a popular collective entertainment, It's not worth it to lose your official position!
Xu Guangqi drove away the officials from the Ministry of Industry, and naturally ignored the others and walked directly to the Meridian Gate. Wang An and Li Jinzhong over there had seen this scene long ago. When they saw Xu Guangqi approaching, they hurriedly greeted him. !
Old Wang An walked up to Xu Guangqi and saluted with a smile: "Is Xu Shangshu here to return his life to his master?"
Although Wang An¡¯s attitude was very low, Xu Guangqi did not dare to treat him lightly and said politely: ¡°What you said is true, I want to return to Long Live!¡±
Lao Wang An said with a smile on his face: "It's a good relationship. Master is very impatient while waiting for you. He asks you once or twice every day. We originally wanted to ask you about it, but Master said that he is afraid of distracting you and strictly prohibits it." Someone went to your place to ask questions, so you can rest assured that you are here to answer your questions this time!"
After hearing these words, Xu Guangqi couldn't help but feel moved in his heart. He was considered an anomaly among literati. Even when he was an official, he was not welcomed everywhere. Now that he was so favored by Zhu Youxiao, Xu Guangqi suddenly felt that he was a confidant. Damn pride!
After calming down, Xu Guangqi leaned over and said, "Eunuch Wang, since Banzai is so impatient, I would like to ask you to report it on your behalf, so that I can see Wanzai as soon as possible so that Wanzai can feel at ease!"
Old Wang An smiled and said: "My master has already issued an edict. You don't need to report to Xu Shangshu for your visit. You can see him immediately!"
Then Lao Wang An said to Li Jinzhong: "Little Lizi, our family has to serve all the masters here. You take Xu Shangshu to see the master immediately. Don't delay!"
Li Jinzhong quickly bowed and said in a very dogged manner: "Ancestor, don't worry, I will make sure everything is done properly. You must take care of yourself in this freezing cold weather!"
Old Wang An nodded and waved his hand to ask Li Jinzhong to go on errands as soon as possible. After Li Jinzhong saluted again, he led Xu Guangqi into the palace in a hurry. Soon the two of them and a group of accompanying young eunuchs disappeared from everyone's sight!
Lao Wang An then walked up to the crowd, cupped his hands and smiled at the officials who were knocking on the door: "My lords, the weather is getting colder and colder. If any of you can't stand it, please get up and have a drink by the fire." Porridge, in another two or three days, I¡¯m afraid you won¡¯t even be qualified to kneel here!¡±
All the officials were already in a panic, but after Lao Wang An tried to persuade them, they lost their composure. Someone immediately shouted: "You old dog is just acting coy here. Even if we freeze to death or starve to death, we won't eat this." Here comes the food!"
When Lao Wang An heard the scolding, the smile on his face became even brighter. He said slowly: "This gentleman is right. We are just an old dog. It's just that our old dog knows how to be loyal and protective." Lord, it doesn¡¯t seem like you are a little too high-mindedThe adults in the palace eat the food of the imperial court and smash the pots of the imperial court. Such adults are not even as good as our old dog! "
After being ridiculed by Lao Wang An, the officials who came to knock on the door couldn't help it. The crowd suddenly became excited. Some people got up on their hands and knees and shouted to themselves: "This eunuch has gone too far. Beat him to death." !¡±
Someone took the lead and others responded naturally. In an instant, the sound of shouting and killing was noisy and boiling. The originally calm and orderly Meridian Gate Knocking Queue was immediately thrown into chaos. But just when those officials were about to rush in front of Lao Wang An, they suddenly heard There was a loud "clang" sound from all around!
This was the sound of a steel sword being unsheathed, and it was not the sound of a sword being unsheathed. Everyone's movements stopped instantly, and then hundreds of eyes looked around, only to see a thousand people who were as motionless as wood. The Han soldiers had already unsheathed their steel swords and were staring at everyone with eager eyes!
These Han soldiers were wearing blue cotton armor, cotton hats with ear protection on their heads, cotton gloves on their hands that went up to their forearms, and hard-soled cotton boots on their feet. He was previously wearing a mandarin duck battle coat and a flying fish uniform, but he gave off a chilling aura that made the civil servants shiver!
If it were in the past, officials would not feel afraid of a big scene like the Knock Queue, because no matter how angry the emperor was, the worst it would be was a court battle. Even if someone was killed, it would just be a bad luck. Damn things!
However, since the last time Zhu Youxiao bloodbathed the court, the officials' confidence has weakened a lot. So much so that when they saw the Han soldiers drawing their swords today, everyone felt a cold wind on their backs, and no one dared to move. !
At this time, an officer with three thin red stripes embroidered on his left shoulder came out. The officer was holding a steel knife in his hand and said with a nonchalant expression on his face: "My lords, if you want to kowtow, please do so quietly." Que, if you make noises and fights casually, in order to maintain the majesty and tranquility of the palace, I will definitely offend you all!"
The officials outside the Meridian Gate were quiet. They were still kneeling on the cold ground, but they were thinking about their own plans in their hearts. Old Wang An stopped wasting time with them and sent the young eunuch to look at the fire and porridge pot while he went to work. I took a nap in the class room!
There is no need to detail what happened outside the Meridian Gate, let¡¯s talk about the situation inside the Qianqing Palace!
At this time, Liu Yishen, who was out of his mind, had been helped to the stool. Now his heart was like a frying pan. He wanted to stand on the side of the civil servants and fight against the emperor, but he was afraid that he would lose the official position he had worked so hard for!
But to turn around and stand on the same line as the emperor, not to mention whether the emperor can regard him as a confidant, or to have his reputation in the literary world ruined, is not something Liu Yishen can bear. What does Liu Yishen know this time? It's hard to get off the tiger, it's a dilemma!
