Emperor Aoki's words were strange.

Because this is something he rarely said with a very solemn expression.

What's more, in this Taizu Emperor Gao's enchanting hall, in front of his ancestors, the atmosphere here is particularly solemn.

"Your Majesty's meaning..." Zhang Jingyi couldn't help but feel solemn, and had to cheer up and treat it carefully.

Emperor Tianqi said: "Emperor Taizu Gao ascended the throne and was thinking about one thing for most of his life, that is, how to make the world last forever. He worked hard and never dared to slack off. What is the reason?"

Emperor Tianqi looked up and stared at the portrait of Emperor Taizu Gao, and remained motionless for a long time. Then he said, "It's just that he knew it was difficult to conquer the world and even more difficult to govern the world. What Emperor Taizu Gao faced was the world that had been governed by the Mongyuan Yuan, and those gentry who regarded the world as cattle and sheep, took this opportunity to suck the bones and marrow, and were unscrupulous. I was not belittling Emperor Taizu Gao's achievements, but in fact, if it weren't for those people, Emperor Taizu Gao, who was a commoner in the Jianghuai Dynasty, how could he easily win the world and stun the China? Therefore, Emperor Taizu Gao used the Mongyuan as a commander throughout his life, hoping to find a way to be safe for a long time. Now, the country's fortune can continue to this day, I'm afraid that Emperor Taizu Gao's contributions will be due to the foresight. But..."

Speaking of this, Emperor Tianqi sighed and said, "Today it has reached such a point. People say that governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh food. What do you say that it will affect your whole body with one blow, but is it really the case?"

As he said that, Emperor Tianqi slowly stood up, turned his head, and his eyes fell on Zhang Jingyi, and he stared at Zhang Jingyi.

Zhang Jingyi said: "Then what Your Majesty means..."

"Let's take a look at these memorials first." Emperor Tianqi answered the question irrelevantly, but raised his hand and pointed at the cases beside him, saying, "Sit here and look carefully."

Zhang Jing's eyes turned, and then he realized that there were piles of memorials on the tables beside him. These cases were originally used to put on the cauldron, but now they are all filled with memorials.

Without hesitation, Zhang Jingyi walked forward, first took a memorial and started reading it carefully.

This is the memorial of the Minister of Revenue, which severely scolded the corrupt atmosphere of the Jiangnan officialdom. However, after a change of the subject, he also expressed that for the sake of long-term stability, he begged Your Majesty to forgive these "disrupted ministers". Otherwise, the subjects in the world will be disloyal and be afraid that a great disaster will come.

Zhang Jingyi put down the memorial in an understatement and picked up another memorial.

This is Liu Hongxun, the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet. Liu Hongxun mentioned the Battle of Guandu. Many of Cao Cao's generals secretly communicated with Yuan Shao and left a large number of letters. After Cao Cao won, he copied these letters. For a moment, the ministers were afraid, and Cao Cao burned these letters in public to express his past allusion. In this way, he warned Emperor Tianqi that things have come to this point and cannot be investigated in depth. It is better to punish some thieves. The rest of the people were just being held by the thieves and begged the emperor to give his grace outside the law.

When Zhang Jing saw this, he seemed to know it. No wonder His Majesty suddenly came to Xiaoling for a long time.

Zhang Jingyi continued to bow his head silently and watched it one by one without any hesitation. The person who reported the report was a variety of people, and even the Chief Secretary of the Cabinet Huang Liji expressed concerns about this.

In addition, there were several other dukes, even the Duke of Qian, who was far away in Yunnan, who also submitted memorials at this time and said something like the water overflows.

What really makes people afraid of these memorials is not the way they use to persuade them in the memorials, but the people who submitted the memorials have various identities, some are eunuchs, some are cabinet ministers, some come from six ministries, some are dukes, many marquises and counts, and even a large number of clan relatives.

The most important thing is that their attitudes are surprisingly consistent.

There is only one meaning here. If someone rebelled, he would just do some gangsters and confiscate their families and destroy their clans. But it should not be affected, and it should not be implicated. Most people are innocent, and even if they follow the thief, they can only be ignorant.

The whole world is so consistent, almost unanimous, and the meaning here is worth pondering.

Zhang Jingyi believed that these people who wrote memorials must be from the bottom of their hearts and never connected them behind their backs, because many people who submitted memorials did not have a harmonious relationship with each other.

For example, most of the bachelors in the cabinet are from northerners and have no interest in the gentry in the south.

For example, many honorary ministers and clan relatives...

After Zhang Jingyi read it silently, he put the memorials together and stacked them one by one.

Emperor Tianqi stared at Zhang Jingyi with his hands behind his back and said, "Have you read all the memorials?"

Zhang Jing nodded and said, "I have seen it."

"What do you think?" said Emperor Aoki.

Zhang Jingyi thought for a while and said, "It doesn't matter how I view it, it's mainly how Your Majesty views it."

Emperor Tianqi said: "You are keeping me in hiding again."

Zhang Jing shook his head and said honestly: "What I said is the heartfelt words. What Your Majesty views it, what determines the future world will look like."

Emperor Tianqi lowered his head, walked silently for a few steps, and then said, "What you said makes sense. Now, the clans advised me, the cabinet ministers advised me, the six ministers advised me, the six ministers advised me, and the heroes advised me, and I know what they mean, they are afraid that I will be out of control, and also afraid... Sooner or later... They will follow in the footsteps of these people in Jiangnan. If I were them, I will also be afraid."

As he said that, Emperor Tianqi suddenly said, "It's a pity that I'm not them!"

Emperor Tianqi immediately said, "If I ignore these memorials, I will become a lonely man from now on."

After saying that, Emperor Tianqi smiled bitterly: "I think this is why... the emperor wants to be called a lonely person."

After pondering for a while, he looked at Zhang Jingyi with a deep look and said, "I will go down the mountain tomorrow. I will personally preside over the measurement of Tianmu. In addition... Zhang Qing... It's time to do it."

Zhang Jingyi glanced at Emperor Tianqi meaningfully: "Your Majesty already has an idea, right?"

"It's already there." Emperor Tianqi seemed extremely calm at this time and said, "Seeing enemies are not scary, those invisible enemies are the most scary. But I want to fight with these invisible people and lose... I will just be Emperor Yang of Sui! I won, at least... I am worthy of the trust of my ancestors."

After saying that, his eyes flashed, and he seemed to have a glow in his eyes, and he spit out two words from his teeth with a firm heart: "Take it!"

…………

The next day.

Emperor Aoki went to the Forbidden City.

The vast crowd did not go to Nanjing City, but rushed to Jiangpu County, Yingtian Prefecture.

This place is very close to Nanjing.

It is located near the ferry entrance to the north, and the Puzikou Inspection Department is located.

Now the inspection department has been controlled by the students.

Emperor Tianqi did not choose to enter the city outside Jiangpu County.

The local county magistrate has been taken, but in fact, the county magistrate here has also been taken. The chief clerk is very miserable... He lost his black hat and ran away without a trace. The Jinyiwei has gone to sea to arrest the documents and arrest them everywhere.

There was only one county magistrate who woke up and looked confused. Where were the officials?

What’s ridiculous is that when we learned that the inspection of the Urakokou Inspection Department outside the city had also changed, the county suddenly became in chaos.

After several local big households were involved in the major rebellion case, the Uzuko Inspection Department also arrested eight or nine, and suddenly... This was a prosperous county town, but now it seems... it has changed overnight.

The poor county magistrate immediately reported this to the superior Yingtian Mansion, hoping that Yingtian Mansion could send a Shangguan to him as soon as possible.

The result was... he soon learned that Yingtian Mansion had also taken over a single pot, and there was no one left, and no one there paid attention to him, saying that he could not help, so you should ask for your own blessings.

The county magistrate had to call up the officers, and these officers who were usually five or six people became dogs with broken spines.

In the Ming Dynasty, many of the servants were hereditary, inherited from their ancestors, passed from their fathers to their sons, and passed from their sons to their grandsons.

On the surface, their status is not high, but the officials who are in power are often better aware of the situation in the county. Those officials often stay in the place for a few years and may have to be transferred to other places. Therefore, on the surface, there are huge differences between officials and their status is extremely different. However, as local tyrants, these servants are not fuel-efficient.

But... the county magistrate soon discovered another even more terrifying phenomenon.

Those arrogant and arrogant workers are now becoming frightened and uneasy, but in fact, there is a reputation here.

Because the officers are hereditary and local tyrants, they are almost all bribed by local gentry, or they are all inseparable from each other, and there are countless unclear relationships between them. For the gentry, they have a backer behind them and can only be tough in the yamen. Even if they meet a militant official, relying on their close relationship network behind them, they may not take the county magistrate's words seriously.

Therefore, many officials who came from the imperial examinations are often perfunctory and randomly fooled by the servants.

But now... the situation is obviously very different.

Many of the gentry were captured. How agile were the servants? They suddenly felt that they had lost their backing. At this time, people were panicked, like a dog that was stranded.

When I heard that the emperor's sage had arrived in this county.

Suddenly, the county magistrate and the officers panicked again. After everyone discussed, they knew that the foolish monarch would immediately chop off his head to feed the dog. However, it was useless to worry. Is there a king's land in the world? I have no place to run, and it is too late to run now.

So... the final result was that I had to bite the bullet and honestly ran to the city gate to welcome him.

But when I was at the city gate, I waited left and right, but I could not see the Emperor of Heaven. At this moment, everyone was a little panicked again.

People say that the Sacred Heart is unpredictable. I didn’t feel anything at first, but now I understand it.
