The Unjust System and My War-Crazy Self

"This monster----'

"How could they allow unsophisticated soldiers, filthy clerks, and peddlers to serve alongside scholars?"

"If these people could occupy high positions in government, wouldn't the world be in chaos?"

"Even the Tartars in the north know to respect the teachings of the saints."

"The Dian King is such a monster, he's even worse than the Tartars!!"

"To treat the Three Bonds and Five Constant Virtues as nothing is truly absurd!"

It's to dig up the roots of all the scholars in the world!

I can't bear it.

I really can't stand it.

The anger in the hearts of scholars throughout Jiangnan was completely ignited.

Excessive.

The King of Dian is really going too far!

Let’s not talk about the previous land laws.

According to Shu Yichao's tax law, there would be no land left.

Without a lot of land, how will we live in the future?

Without tens of thousands of acres of good farmland, the aristocratic families that rely on the farmland for their survival will naturally be doomed.

Naturally, they will lose everything: their luxurious living, political privileges, and high status.

Not only that they are gone.

Even their descendants are gone.

It's all done!

If the land could still be negotiated, then the imperial examination was not negotiable.

According to Shu Yichao's examination method, Yu Mengke could clearly foresee that her previous beautiful and noble hobbies and the elegance of a scholar would disappear completely.

The elegance of sitting high in the pavilion and discussing poetry and prose is gone.

The elegance of whistling in the mountains, brewing tea and playing the piano is gone.

The carefree person in white clothes as white as snow, smiling at the world, will disappear without a trace.

When Yu Mengke thought that the officialdom would be filled with those dirty and scoundrels who had stepped on feces, had the scorching sun on their heads, and sweat like rain, she felt physically uncomfortable all over.

As for the reform of the official system, all officials must have grassroots work experience and other unreasonable requirements.

It was an inhumane persecution of the scholars!

If she lived in such a world, Yu Mengke would only feel suffocated.

Life is simply worse than death.

"This national disaster is even worse than the Jiashen Incident!"

"I hope that scholars from all over the world will join us in this national crisis and fight this monster together!"

"The great Chinese nation will never allow this evildoer to wreak havoc on us! He is destroying our lineage!"

Yu Mengke bowed.

"I hope everyone can come up with a set of rules."

"We must make sure that the King of Heaven realizes his mistake and turns back when faced with difficulties."

"Hiss----" A scholar thought of something.

"correct.

"Submit a petition!"

“Let’s put the letter on the bus!”

"If the scholars of the world were united, they would advance and retreat together."

"No matter how vicious and cruel that evildoer is, he wouldn't dare to act so openly and perversely!

"Yes!" Just like that, these scholars discussed and connected with each other.

"I heard that the King of Dian is planning to go to the Xiaoling Mausoleum to pay homage."

"I think we can do this..."

"By the way, can we also try to win over His Majesty?"

Although Zhu Jingli is basically a mascot now.

But in name, he is still the emperor above Shu Yichao.

It can at least play a role.

Soon, the scholars began to make preparations in a hurry.

Of course, their tricks are as obvious as lice on a bald man's head to those who are interested.

"Butler, this is what happened."

"Those dissatisfied Confucian scholars are secretly colluding.

In front of Sophia, the spy lowered his head and spoke respectfully.

“All the information has been sorted out.

"Should we submit this to the Heavenly King?"

"I'll go myself." Sophia's eyes moved, and after a moment of hesitation, she jumped off her seat.

"Apocalypse!" Sophia jumped in front of Shu Yichao and said as if to seek credit.

"Look what they found?"

[You have encountered a new event.]

[You have discovered a conspiracy.]

[Some scholars are quite dissatisfied with the decrees you issued.]

[It seems they are planning to cause some trouble on your way to the Xiaoling Mausoleum...]

"Hmm?" Shu Yichao rubbed his chin slightly.

"Hey-

“This is new!”

"interesting."

"I'll come and see what's going on."

Chapter 771-Sue me?

"rise!!"

A grand worship ceremony was held as scheduled in front of the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum.

Zhu Jingli, wearing grand and gorgeous sacrificial attire, led a group of civil and military officials, as well as countless ordinary people, to read the sacrificial text in front of the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum.

As it was a rare ceremony that Shu Yichao was willing to spend some money on, this worship was finally not as shabby as Zhu Jingli's daily life.

There were more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians accompanying them.

On both sides of the corridor leading to the Hall of Worship, there are majestic yet graceful ceremonial guards and military bands, and the platform is filled with military and political dignitaries in their best attire.

"But our Taizu rose from the wilderness, expelled the treacherous and evil, and restored the old order. After twelve years, he finally established his great cause—"

As the theoretical ruler of the Great Meng at the moment, the task of writing the eulogy was naturally given to Zhu Jingli.

At this moment, the emperor recited the sacrificial words in a rhythmic manner.

"The Jiannu took advantage of the situation and invaded and occupied Zhongxia."

"A man of great talent rises like a cloud."

In the memorial, Zhu Jingli reviewed the great achievements of Emperor Taizu in expelling the Tartars, getting rid of the barbarians, and recovering the homeland.

Then he solemnly announced the tragic scene in which the Jiannu invaded the pass and almost caused China to sink into the sea again.

Finally, he offered a memorial to the present generation, publicizing the recent expulsion of the Jiannu and the eradication of the smelly and fishy things, and regarded it as a continuation of the achievements of Emperor Taizu, in order to comfort the spirit of Emperor Taizu in heaven...

The entire sacrificial process was perfect, and the cheers of the people, the military and the civilians were one wave higher than the other, making the scene seem like being in a sea of ​​cheers.

Then, the unpleasantness came.

“Confucius said, ‘Isn’t it a joy to have a head come from afar?’”

Shu Yichao laughed sneeringly and ordered the army of plants to pile up countless human heads into a mountain and build a Jingguan in front of countless people.

"Hahaha!!"

"Zhu Chongba!"

"See?"

"I brought heads from other places here-

"Including the most recent ones, there are as many as 200,000 or 300,000."

"Are you satisfied with this gift?"

"It's a pity that there are so few real Tartars..."

"But it doesn't matter!"

"After I take down the zombies' lair."

"I'll dig up the bodies of all eighteen generations of my ancestors, chop off their heads and pile them up for you------hehehe!!"

Zhu Jingli's expression changed slightly, and a look of humiliation flashed across his face.

"This King of Dian..."

How rude!

This is the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum!

How can you be so rude!?

This ceremony was just like many of the previous ones. Shu Yichao either didn't participate at all, or he just came to watch a monkey show.

During such an important ceremony, Shu Yichao refused to kneel at all.

If he didn't kneel, others naturally wouldn't dare to kneel either.

Such a solemn ceremony of paying homage to the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum was turned into a grand party.

Moreover, this lunatic actually openly called Emperor Taizu by his nickname?

Does he have any respect for the royal family?

Even those warlords and Tartars had to at least cover up a little on the surface.

The King of Dian didn't even bother pretending?

And they even offered human heads as sacrifices?

Does this guy really regard the memorial ceremony as a victory tribute?

Zhu Jingli's expression changed for a while, but in the end he said nothing.

He is very aware of the current situation where I am the fish on the chopping board.

"I don't know if those Confucian scholars can accomplish anything."

Zhu Jingli was wearing a crown and looking into the distance, secretly sweating in his heart.

After all, what is about to happen today is a bit...

"coming."

Seeing the commotion among the crowd in the distance, Zhu Jingli let out a long breath.
