Chapter 890: Submission
Lord Yu of Henan stationed in Beijing, his official position is just a political secretary, from the seventh grade. In the official system of the nineteenth grade and eighteenth level of the Ming Dynasty, he can only be regarded as a lowly official.
Lord Yu has never wanted to do anything in history in his life, he just wants to be a good errand and rely on the oil and water of Henan officials to go to Beijing for business, and live a nourishing life.
When I saw several officers and soldiers unfolding the Book of the People, they knelt down in front of them.
Lord Yu, he immediately said that his heart was broken, broken, and things were big.
The officers and soldiers had purple lips and cracked faces, but they knelt in the hall with sincere expressions, as if they could make decisions for him.
He looked carefully, and the names densely listed on the book of the people in the hands of several officers and soldiers were raised, and he was suddenly a little moved: "What's going on with you, stand up and speak!" ”
The leading officer and soldier wept and said: "Lord Yu, there was a flood in Henan just last year, and King Lu is coming to the vassal again, and there is no money in the province, so you can only ask the provinces for money." ”
"But our people have collected all the grain in the field, but we can't even raise the money for the palace of King Jianlu. We have no choice, and the people can't survive! ”
The scholars in the hall gathered more and more, and when they heard what the officers and soldiers said, some of them exclaimed: "Why did the family become like this?" ”
Another person sighed: "You are studying in Beijing, but you don't know about your family. ”
"It's all natural and man-made disasters, natural disasters and man-made disasters!"
Lord Yu was shocked, this person said this in the guild hall, what if he instigated the scholars to make trouble?
Master Yu immediately said: "Okay, there is no need to say it, first put away the book of the people, and the Japanese official will go to the General Administration Department tomorrow!" ”
The officer and soldier hurriedly said: "Lord Yu, it's too late!" A certain person traveled thousands of miles from Henan to Beijing day and night, just to hand over this book of ten thousand people to the saint! These 100,000 are in a hurry! ”
Master Yu said perfunctorily: "Then it's not in a hurry at this moment, do you know how many officials outside are discussing this matter?" What is the attitude of the Holy One? ”
"Do you know how much turmoil it will cause when this book of all people is published? Under the turmoil, no one can think of any consequences, if you don't know the situation in Beijing, don't mix it, go back to the room to rest first, and put the things in me. ”
Lord Yu wanted to take away the Book of All People at the moment, but the officers and soldiers refused to give it.
Master Yu was angry and said, "What are you doing? ”
The officer and soldier gritted their teeth and said: "This is Lord Futai, who wants to be sent to the General Administration Department in person, and no one can take it away before this." ”
Lord Yu scolded: "What a bold Qiu Ba, the chapters of Henan Province to Beijing are all forwarded by this official, how dare you disobey this official's orders?" ”
The officer and soldier just kowtowed, but in any case they would not give it.
"Lord Yu, it's better to let this brother finish his words first," a timber seller stood up, "This brother, my hometown is from Guide Mansion, I don't know what is going on in my hometown now?" ”
A scholar said: "Last year, the Yellow River burst its embankment, it was in Guide Mansion, where can it be good now?" ”
"Yes, I'm afraid there is nothing left under this scrape."
"Now I don't know how many people in Henan are dead? There is also a eunuch who does not want the common people to live. ”
Shang Jia took out a handful of money from his arms and handed it to the officer and soldier, and said: "Brother, please tell me, I still have an old mother in the hall at home, and an elder brother at the foot of the slope guards a few acres of thin fields!" ”
"If it's a rush...... How is the old mother at home? I beg the eldest brother to inform me that I am grateful. ”
The officer and soldier pushed: "Big brother, I can't take this money." You can rest assured that you will return to the Defu people, and the family will be fine. ”
The merchant asked, "What do you say?" Bring him another bowl of hot wine, and settle the account for me. ”
The officer and soldier took a sip of hot wine and said, "Thanks to the two good officials from the Guide Mansion!" One is Lord Fu of the Prefect, and the other is Lord Tongzhilin! ”
"It's Lin Sanyuan!"
"That's right, Mr. Xuegong!"
The readers are full of Lin Yanchao's name.
The scholars asked: "Henan is so important, why is it okay to return to Germany alone?" ”
The officer and soldier said: "It's all the kindness of Lord Lin and Lord Fu." After Lord Lin came to Guide to serve as an official, the people did not starve to death, but took out the money in the government to help the people! Who of us is not grateful for their kindness? ”
"If your mother is in Guide Mansion, you will put one hundred and twenty hearts, with Lord Fu and Lord Lin, no natural or man-made disasters will harm them."
Hearing this, the merchant burst into tears and said, "This is really good, the villain has thanked Lord Lin for his great kindness!" ”
Lord Yu said disdainfully: "Hearsay may not be true? How can an officer and soldier know so many things? Now there are so many officials in the court who impeach him! ”
A young officer and soldier on the side said loudly: "Returning to my lordship, I am from the Guide Mansion." What Lord Lin is doing in Guide, the common people see it, if he is a bad official, then there will be no good officials in the world! ”
"You!" Lord Yu was blocked by these words, and couldn't help but snort.
The readers talked one after another.
"Good officials and bad officials, only what the people say counts!"
"In the hearts of the people, this Lord Lin is a good official!"
"There are traitors in the court who want to harm Lord Lin!"
"It's not just a traitor, it's just Qin Hui!"
"There are these eunuchs and mediocre officials in the imperial court, how can we ordinary people have a good life?"
A scholar immediately stepped forward and said, "Lord Yu, just hand over this book of all people!" Let the saint know who is a good official and who is a bad official in the eyes of the people of Henan, and inform the Son of Heaven of the public opinion! ”
"You can't let the loyal and righteous be wronged!"
"The sun is shining brightly, and the Holy One will give justice to all the people of the world! I beg an adult here! ”
Saying that, the scholar bowed for a long time, and then hundreds of scholars in the guild hall pleaded. Together with several officers and soldiers present, and even the guys in the guild hall, the shopkeeper all knelt down.
It was cold and windy outside, but the public opinion inside the hall was boiling like fire, and everyone fell to their knees.
Seeing this, Lord Yu was like an ant on a hot pot, and anxiously turned around and said, "This won't work, it won't work." It's good to hand over the recitals of the lords here, and then you put this book of all the people, isn't this matter out of control? ”
"It's not going to be easy. Futai doesn't know the public opinion in Beijing, no, let the official write to the province, and then make a decision! ”
When Lord Yu said this, everyone's faces changed.
At this moment, a scholar stood up and shouted, "My lord! This book of the people is the public opinion, which blocks the public opinion, so that the people's feelings cannot be listened to by the heavens, and this crime is enough for you to dismiss the office! That is, you are afraid of being a risk, and you will lose your official position left and right, are you willing to leave a body of infamy and lose it, or lose it for the people! ”
Master Yu hurriedly said: "It's not that I don't turn it in, I'm just asking Futai again!" ”
The scholar grabbed Lord Yu's sleeve and shouted: "The people's feelings are like fire, how can we slow down, if it is a few days late, the consequences are unimaginable, if Lord Yu is afraid of traitors obstructing it, then I will submit a letter to the General Administration Department with you!" ”
Yu said in his heart that so many people have submitted books, not to make a bigger noise, my black yarn hat is going to be saved. He was about to stop it, but he heard that the readers below were all applauding.
A gentleman climbed onto the table and shouted on all sides, "Ladies and gentlemen, what is the matter with the study center?" One is to continue to learn from the saints, and the other is to open peace for all generations! ”
"We scholars don't speak for the people, who else can speak for the people, if you have the guts, follow me to the Department of Political Affairs!"
All the readers slapped the table and said, "I want to go!" ”
"I'm willing to go!"
The reader below slammed the table like a mountain, and the scorching heat dispelled the winter chill, and anyone who saw such a scene would never forget it for the rest of their lives.
Even the businessman said: "Although I am not a scholar, I also know what righteousness is, count me in!" ”
Master Yu spread his hands when he saw it and said, "How can this work, how can this work?" ”
At that moment, a scholar did not allow adults to say anything, and pulled out his sword from his waist and said, "Lord Yu will go with me!" If a traitor hinders him, he draws his sword and kills him. ”
"I'll go! I'll go! Lord Yu was suddenly frightened.
So all the scholars will be caught in the middle of the adults and go to the General Administration together.
The officers and soldiers in front of the General Administration Department, but when they saw so many scholars rushing together, they were so frightened that they hurriedly fled into the hall to report to the officials.
Lord Yu was held hostage and out of breath, and hurriedly lied: "Everyone, the General Administration Department only receives letters from officials, how can you do this?" ”
The scholars said: "Since you have arrived here, where is the reason to turn back." ”
A bold scholar rushed to the drum of the General Secretary without saying a word.
Lord Yu was so frightened when he saw that his soul was gone, but he couldn't stop drinking.
But seeing that the scholar picked up a drumstick in each hand, and his face showed determination, he didn't say a word at the moment, but picked up his arms and knocked them down!
The rousing drum beat is like beating on everyone's heart!
The sound of drums shook all around, penetrating into the palaces of the Forbidden City!
"It's a big deal now!" When Lord Yu saw this scene, he almost fainted.
At this time, the door of the General Administration Department opened.
The drums beat endlessly.
"Don't stop yet!"
Ni Wanguang, the envoy of the general government, went out under the escort of the soldiers on the left and right, and saw so many people gathered here, the crowd surged, and the scholars ignored the cold and the cold, and the crowd was angry.
Ni Wanguang was secretly frightened, and shouted on his face: "I am a political envoy, why are you beating the drum?" ”
All the scholars saluted together: "I have seen my lord, we are Henan scholars, and we are the sons of heaven with public feelings!" ”
Ni Wanguang scolded: "What kind of people's feelings, so that you and others can gather here, beat the drum and sound the grievances, and disperse quickly, if you disturb the holy car, who of you will take this responsibility?" ”
"I want to deserve it in my later life!" The leader blocked Ni Wanguang back with a word.
"Well said!" All the readers applauded and applauded loudly.
Ni Wanguang said with a dark face: "Okay, the official remembers you, what kind of public sentiment will be handed over!" ”
At this time, several scholars spread out the book of the people. Ni Wanguang was taken aback and said, "What is this?" ”
"Book of the People!"
Ni Wanguang changed color.
The scholar looked around, and then said loudly: "This is the book of the people of our 5.2 million people in Henan, and it is submitted to the imperial court to ask Your Majesty to make a holy judgment!" ”
