I am the king of the dead

"That's 5 taels!"

Even at this point, Zhao Hui is still heartbroken for the money he lost.

Lu Zhong was not surprised. Qufu belonged to Yanzhou Prefecture (now Jining City), and all Japanese and silver coins were made by Yanzhou craftsmen.

"What else?" Lu Zhong continued to ask.

Zhao Hui thought about it seriously, shook his head and said, "There will be no more."

"Really gone?"

"Nothing."

Lu Zhong was stunned for a moment and asked, "What about Uncle Huichang's mansion, did you participate in it?"

Zhao Hui immediately said: "No... Yes! Then Sun Zhong took 10 taels of silver from me, 10 taels a year!"

Lu Zhong sighed, stood up, and clapped his hands. This was Zhao Hui's grabbing before he died.

Two Tiqi came in with a three-foot white silk and a stool, hung it on the beam, and the two Tiqi went to fetch Zhao Hui.

"What are you doing!" Zhao Hui stared wide-eyed, scared out of his wits.

He thought that Lu Zhong would report and then come back.

Is this going to be done directly?

"It's quarter past noon." Lu Zhong looked at the moment and said, "At this time, the yang energy is at its peak, and even ghosts can't do it."

"Send the son-in-law Captain Zhao Hui on the road!"

Lu Zhong rubbed his nose, the food poured out yesterday was a bit rancid, mixed with the smell of Zhao Hui's incontinence, it didn't smell very good.

The two tyrants swung Zhao Hui on the three-foot white silk with a single stroke of force, and the one standing on the stool copied it easily.

"Ah, eh, ah."

Zhao Hui was hanging on the beam of the house, more than a foot away from the stool. He pulled the white silk desperately, trying to tear the white silk, or trying to break free, but the two riders pulled Zhao Hui easily. Two of his hands were pulled and dislocated.

A group of Jinyi guards grabbed the benches and waited at the door.

Zhao Hui kept scratching his feet, but it was of no avail. His face was getting redder and redder, his tongue was sticking out, his eyes were bulging, and he gradually stopped struggling. spin.

Until Zhao Hui breathed his last, Lu Zhong, Huo Xuan, Minister of Dali Temple, Yu Shiyue, Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, and others left the prison cell, and there would naturally be an autopsy.

When I went out, the sun was just right, Jinyiwei's yamen, on the west side of the imperial road from Chengtianmen to Damingmen, was busy with officials coming and going.

"The sun is just right, and the yang energy is just right." Yu Shiyue smiled and shook her head, and led a group of people from the Ministry of Punishment towards the Yamen of the Ministry of Punishment.

Lu Zhong was heading towards the lecture hall, just in time to meet His Majesty going to Juxian Pavilion, so he went up and reported the final interrogation.

This is a fraudulent confession without a confession, and it will not be submitted as documentary evidence at all.

There is no conflict between carrying out the imperial decree, hanging Zhao Hui and prosecuting Yan Shenggong.

Yu Qian didn't leave, he still wanted to discuss politics with His Majesty, and asked in a daze, "Yan Shenggong is actually involved in such a scandal?"

Zhu Qiyu sneered and said, "I'm not surprised, but Yu Shaobao is very surprised?"

"It's not very surprising. I heard that this Yan Shenggong... can't say anything." Yu Qian shook his head and said helplessly: "I've heard that there are many crimes. Isn't Li Binyan in Shandong? Let him finish his work. By the way, let’s go to Yanzhou Mansion again.”

"Speaking of Li Binyan, Lu Zhong, how many horses have you left for this censor, don't let your life die." Of course Zhu Qiyu was concerned about Li Binyan's life and death.

He also specifically told Tianzi Tiqi to protect Li Binyan's life when he was in Shandong.

Tianzi Tiqi usually protects Tai'an Palace, Li Binyan said that the treatment is not good?

Unexpectedly, Li Binyan got along like a fish in water in Shandong, and the reputation of indulging in pleasures spread to Yushi's ears, and he was even impeached.

"Fifty, Chengtianmen is only fifty Tiqi." Lu Zhong replied immediately.

Chengtianmen's daily security patrols are only fifty.

After Tianzi Tiqi led the criminals from Shandong back to Beijing, he immediately brought another 50 people to Jinan Mansion. Li Binyan was the governor sent by Zhu Qiyu and the official ordered by the court.

"That's okay." Zhu Qiyu nodded, as long as Li Binyan didn't mess himself up, at most he couldn't handle things well, and his life should be saved.

Seeing Lu Zhong's leaving voice, Yu Qian sighed and said, "Your Majesty, the courtiers always say that His Majesty is violent and harsh, but I don't see that His Majesty is violent."

"If you do something for me, I can't let him lose his life, right? How will I face Li Binyan's mother and wife then?" Zhu Qiyu said with a smile, "Play a game of chess?"

"Xing'an Dadang, this time, there really can't be any more natural disasters." Yu Qian still told Xing'an, of course the chessboard can be played, but Xing'an's way is a bit paradoxical.

Zhu Qiyu and Yu Qian set up a battle, and then started to play chess, still playing [Battle of Jingnan], Zhu Qiyu held the Jianwen Prince's Mansion, and Yu Qian held the Yan Mansion.

"Aren't your Majesties worried about something happening to Duke Yansheng?" Yu Qian asked strangely, waving the flag.

Zhu Qiyu sneered: "Yan Shenggong, how many regiments does he have?"

A regiment battalion has 24 soldiers and horses, and the capital has [-] regiment battalions, with a total of [-] soldiers and horses. Zhu Qiyu would like to know how many regiments Yan Shenggong has.

"Yan Shenggong has the mouth of the world." Yu Qian said helplessly, His Majesty seems to have a lot of opinions on Yan Shenggong, but in fact he also has a lot of opinions.

Zhu Qiyu said with a smile; "There is still a temple in Quzhou. If there is any lawlessness, the Kong family in Qufu will naturally judge it. It's just 58 generations of slaves and 24 dynasties of second ministers."

Nodding and bowing to feast on Japanese pirates, and beating gongs and drums to welcome the Kaiser, these are just the traditional arts of Yan Shenggong.

Zhu Qiyu hated the traitors, so he sent them to the Imperial Hospital to make medical contributions.

Yu Qian's favorite is Wen Tianxiang, and he also hates traitors and traitors the most. The first time he was impeached was for traitors, Guo Jing and others, selling firecrackers, steel feathers and other things outside the pass.

But for all spies, meeting such a pair of sons and ministers is a blessing for several lifetimes.

With the Emperor of Ming Dynasty on his left and Yu Shaobao on his right, how lucky is it that the spy has these two most powerful people in Ming Dynasty serving him?

Spies should learn to be grateful.

Yu Qian sighed and said: "Your Majesty, in fact, Emperor Taizu Gao prefers Taoism to Confucianism. From the first year of Hongwu to Jiachen Day in December of the seventh year of Hongwu, Emperor Gao's "Imperial Notes on the Tao Te Ching" was completed. The officials said: "Five colors make people blind, five sounds make people deaf, go to extremes, go to extravagance, go to Thai."

"Use this to persuade the world to go to extreme, extravagant and excessive politics."

"The way of the world, even the emperor who is as powerful as Gao Gao, has some unsatisfactory things. The court is full of dogs, and now King Guangtong is rebelling, and everything in Shandong is still undecided."

"Your Majesty is at the peak of his spring and autumn, so don't be angry and angry. The matter of governing the country will affect the whole body. Instead, it will give the villain an opportunity to take advantage of."

Yu Qian's words meant that Emperor Gao had no choice but to canonize Yan Shenggong, and advised His Majesty not to go to extremes, not to be angry, and finally Xiaoxiao took advantage of the loophole.

Emperor Taizu Gao was canonized as Duke Yansheng, and there was still a period of embarrassment, and even a magistrate of Yanzhou died.

"Has Emperor Gao been wronged?" Zhu Qiyu didn't know what happened.

Yu Qian nodded. This is not a secret. He exhaled forcefully and said, "On Dingwei (fourteenth) day of the second month of the first year of Hongwu, Emperor Gao ordered Tailao to sacrifice his ancestor Confucius to Guoxue, and ordered Qian Yuan to enshrine Yan Shenggong. Kong Kejian entered the dynasty."

"Kong Kejian is good. He said he was sick, and asked his son Kong Xixue to enter the court. He said: "My father has been ill for a long time, so I let my minister see first."

"Emperor Gao once again issued an imperial edict, ordering Kong Kejian to enter the court, saying: The ancients who proclaimed themselves emperors by wearing common clothes are also the great ancestors of the Han Dynasty. The destiny lies, and who is against it? I heard that you are suffering from wind disease, is it true? If there is no disease, you can call it If you are sick, you can't. I tell you to think about it."

Zhu Qiyu left his son, and Zhu Yuanzhang's edict was very angry.

In this imperial edict, Zhu Yuanzhang directly said that in ancient times, commoners were called emperors. There was Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and Zhu Yuanzhang, a commoner in Huaiyou, was destined to be the emperor!No one can violate it!

The subject changed, the tone became more threatening, and he said directly, I heard that Kong Kejian, you are sick, is it true?If you pretend to be sick without illness, you have to go to court. When the imperial edict arrives, you should think about it!

It is conceivable how high Zhu Yuanzhang's anger was at that time!

Dare to provoke Zhu Yuanzhang to be full of anger, I am afraid that the old birthday star hanged himself and hit the wall, trying to die in a different way.

Yu Qian continued: "Kong Kejian, the Holy Duke of Yuan Fengyan, walked halfway, stopped halfway, and arrived in Huai'an, waited for the envoy in yellow clothes, waited for the third urging edict, and then entered Nanjing Jinshen Hall to play the right. "

"Three invitations to come, what does he think of himself?" Zhu Qiyu said with some surprise.

The three concessions are Zhou etiquette, which is roughly equivalent to getting a marriage certificate before it is legal.

King Tai of Zhou wanted to pass on the throne to his third son, Ji Li, because Ji Li had a good son named Chang, who was Ji Chang, King Wen of Zhou.

At that time, the inheritance of the throne was the eldest son system. Tai Bo, the eldest son of King Tai of Zhou, had his tattoos cut off his will, and it was the first time that Tai Bo gave up the throne.

Later, Ji Li succeeded to the throne and said that he would give the throne to Tai Bo, and Tai Bo would give up the throne again. This was the second time that Tai Bo gave up the throne.

Later, Ji Li was killed by Shang Wang Wending, and Zhou Wen Wang Jichang succeeded to the throne. He wanted to give the throne to Taibo again, and Taibo gave up the throne for the third time.

It is for three concessions.

Later Zhou Wen Wang Jichang made great efforts to govern and continuously expanded the territory of Zhou State. Zhou Wu Wang Ji Fa succeeded to the throne and overthrew King Shang Zhou.

Since then, he has given way three times and refused to give up the third time.

If you let go, you will be replaced.

When friends meet for a drink, once or twice they evade something, and invite them again for the third time. If they still don't come, it means breaking up the relationship.

At the beginning, Zhu Qiyu also gave in three times. Yu Qian invited him once, the courtiers invited him once, and the Queen Mother invited him once before he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor.

The Kong Kejian in Yu Qian's mouth is really a toad pretending to be a little frog. He is ugly and plays with flowers. !

Doing this with Zhu Yuanzhang in front of the door is not to die?

Yu Qian said helplessly: "Emperor Gao did not kill Kong Kejian, but gave him a house, a horse, and twenty stones a month, and made Kong Kejian's son Kong Xixue the Duke of Yan."

"Afterwards, the Kong family told people everywhere that there were only three families in the world: my family, Jiangxi Zhang, and Fengyang Zhu. Jiangxi Zhang, Daoist morale, Fengyang Zhu, broke out, petty family spirit."

Zhu Qiyu took a deep breath, Zhu Yuanzhang was wronged so much!

"Then what Yu Shaobao means is that I have to suffer this kind of grievance?" Zhu Qiyu continued to plant the flag and asked calmly.

Yu Qian shook his head and said, "That's not true."

"At that time, the world was initially settled, and there was an urgent need to stabilize people's hearts. Emperor Gao, the great ancestor, had to endure this tone, and put the country and the community as the most important thing."

"To this day, people in the world feel at ease. Even though there is an emergency in Ming Dynasty, it is slow."

"Yan Shenggong corrupted the law and violated the law by taking bribes, and the public trial is the case."

"Emperor Gao suffered this grievance, isn't it for His Majesty today, not to be wronged by such a sour scholar?"

"It's just that the Kong family in Qufu is full of opinions, and the Kong family in Quzhou, even if it is the Kong family in Quzhou, no matter how lawless it is."

"Then Yan Shenggong, it doesn't matter if you don't set it up."

Yu Qian has always been like this, the emperor can't do it, he was captured, and he is still knocking on the door, so let's change.

Since His Majesty Yu Qianhe discussed politics alone, Confucian classics have only been used occasionally, and most of them are based on the strengths of a hundred schools of thought.

For example, the unknown weapon of a good soldier is used by a sage as a last resort, which comes from "Tao Te Ching"; if the warehouse is real, one knows etiquette, which comes from "Guanzi Herdsman"; For the decision, from "Zhuangzi".

Confucian classics have been studied for more than 24 years, and Wen and Wu have been promoted for [-] years, and finally a civil fortress was created.

If it remains the same, where will the sun, the moon, and the eternal glory come from in this great tomorrow?

Yu Qian always remembers that he is a courtier of Ming Dynasty first, and a student of Confucianism second.

This is the way of obedience as a minister, not when Wang Fu is in the court and his heart is still a matter of state.

Lu Zhong came in hurriedly, and said hastily: "Your Majesty, Shandong Tiqi sent an urgent report, and Li Bin said that he..."

After half of Lu Zhong's words, he coughed.

"What's wrong with Li Binyan?" Zhu Qiyu asked with a sudden expression on his face.

Yu Qian sighed, he had been persuading him for a long time on the way of benevolence and forgiveness, but was his work in vain?

Chapter 242 Your Majesty Please Kill

Yan Shenggong, he doesn't have many regiments.

But he has Confucian students in the Confucian school.

Zhu Qiyu stood up and said, "Where is Wuqinghou? Announce Wuqinghou!"

Since someone dared to bite Li Binyan's bait, of course Zhu Qiyu dared to raise his pole, fish up the fish, and check the quality. It would be better to send them to the imperial hospital, or to Beizhen Fusi, or just take off their heads.

In the court hall, Hu Wei slandered Wang Fu. The former Yuan did not lose the world with generosity, but lost the world with indulgence.

At this point in time, Zhu Qiyu has given them a lot of face when Mizhou privately set up a city shipping department. They are not happy with the transfer from private to government, and the establishment of admirals and eunuchs to supervise and officials to manage?

But they seem to think that Daming Chaotang is very easy to bully!

Zhu Qiyu must not let Daming lose the world with his leniency.

For the monarch, this is the greatest immorality!

Lu Zhong was in a hurry to leave, and he was a bit out of breath when he spoke. He saw that His Majesty had misunderstood, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Li Binyan said that they are Juren from Surabaya, Qufu, Linzi, Ningyang, and Yanzhou Prefectures. , To cancel the exam, they went to the Ziyang Yamen in Yanzhou Prefecture to make trouble."

"Say: The collection of money and food should be divided into Confucian households and Jingentry. How can we and the Jingentry complete the grain together? , the common people are not allowed to be exempted from the collection of money and food."

Zhu Qiyu was taken aback, and asked blankly: "Ah, is there such a good thing?"
