On the second day, Zhu Xu wore a regular suit, held a folding fan, and came to the governor's yamen without hurrying.

"Ministers see the emperor, long live my emperor!"

Huang Chengyuan, Yan Mingtai led the mountain. A civil and military official in the east stood in front of the door and greeted Zhu Xu.

Zhu Xu took Cao Huachun, Cao Bianjiao, and two hundred guards, although they were wearing regular clothes, they were also majestic.

"Flat, let's go in and talk." Zhu Xu said with a smile.

"Emperor Xie!"

Huang Chengyuan and Yan Mingtai led a group of people, most of whom were very nervous, and few people dared to treat them calmly.

Now it's Jingzheng Dynasty, not the Apocalypse, Wanli, the courtiers can beat the emperor with chicken feathers.

Zhu Xu came to the lobby, looked at it, and nodded slightly, plain and low-key, without any luxury.

Cao Huachun and Cao Bianjiao were lined up on either side of him.

After Zhu Xu sat down, a group of officials came in one after another and stood in front of him.

In addition to the governor's yamen, the governor's yamen, and the prefects of various places, there are almost thirty people, which is considered a mountain. East management too.

"Sit down." Zhu Xu picked up the tea on the side and said with a smile.

"Emperor Xie!"

A group of people raised their hands again, sat down, and then all turned sideways slightly, waiting for Zhu Xu to speak.

Zhu Xu took a sip of tea, then looked at everyone, and said with a calm smile, "I have many purposes for going south this time, one of which is to let officials who have not seen me, and I have not seen them, let's meet each other to avoid misunderstandings." ”

A sentence of 'avoid misunderstanding' made everyone's hearts beat wildly, the emperor in front of him is Jingzheng, and he will kill people if he doesn't agree with him!

Everyone became more and more respectful, for fear that something would really be 'misunderstood' by the emperor.

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Zhu Xu couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't be nervous, I don't eat people, well, let's start with Governor Huang, you talk about it first, let's all relax and relax." ”

Huang Chengyuan's face was solemn, and just as he was about to get up, Zhu Xu waved his hand and said, "Let's just talk about family life today, we don't need to stand, just sit and talk." ”

Huang Chengyuan hesitated, raised his hand and sat down, and said, "Go back to the emperor, mountain. The various government affairs of the East have been skilled, the governor's yamen and local officials are very supportive, and the 'new deal' has also been launched, and it is currently going well. ”

Zhu Xu snorted, this can be regarded as the usual method of the courtiers to deal with him, the emperor, 'concise' and 'no content'.

"Governor Yan, can you tell me?" Zhu Xu's voice raised a little.

Everyone immediately knew that Zhu Xu was dissatisfied with Huang Chengyuan's answer, Yan Mingtai didn't dare to continue the routine, and hurriedly said: "Back to the emperor, the Governor's Mansion has already dispatched 5,000 elite soldiers and strong generals, and plans to sweep away the mountain from east to west. All bandits in the eastern territory are expected to be able to restore the mountain within half a year. The east is stable, so that the people live and work in peace and contentment. ”

"Planned, determined, good!"

Zhu Xu commented, and in Yan Mingtai's smile, he turned his head to look at the others and said, "Do the others have anything to say?" Aid. Is the Southern Governor here? ”

On that day, Zhu Xu sat inside, and there were several people present who knew each other, but they all shrank their heads and held their breath.

Huang Chengyuan's expression moved slightly, and he raised his hand and said, "Back to the emperor, Governor Yang is on leave." ”

Yang Fengzhong's every move, Zhu Xu was naturally very clear, picked up the teacup, and smiled without saying a word.

The confrontation between Huang Chengyuan and Yang Fengzhong on that day was actually a confrontation between the 'new political faction' of the imperial court and the 'conservative faction'.

Zhu Xu took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "Don't be restrained, just say anything, let's be open and honest today." ”

When Zhu Xu said this, the people below became more and more afraid to speak.

Except for a few people, their understanding of the emperor is either Wei Guangzheng in the newspaper, or the 'brutality and lack of morality' passed on by word of mouth, no matter which one of them, everyone present does not dare to speak falsely and is cautious in words and deeds.

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to say!"

Suddenly, in the dead silence, a man stood up and said in a deep voice.

When everyone looked over, they all looked slightly shocked. Governor of Anfu, Feng Deyuan.

Zhu Xu didn't know him, Cao Huachun had already whispered in his ear.

Zhu Xu squinted, he remembered that he was in Thailand before. An broke that Feng Dashao's leg, and at the same time asked the governor's yamen to investigate, it seems that this Feng Deyuan has a lot of means, and he actually appeared in front of him safely!

However, obviously, Feng Deyuan didn't know that Zhu Xu ordered the beating that day, and Zhu Xu smiled without moving, "Well, let's talk about it, I like to hear the truth." ”

Feng Deyuan stood in front of Zhu Xu, raised his hand, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that there are three major malpractices in the imperial court!" ”

Everyone present, even Huang Chengyuan was shocked, this Huang Chengyuan is really dead, not amazing! Who doesn't know that the policy of the imperial court does not come from the cabinet, but from the emperor in front of him!

This is death!

Zhu Xu had more smiles on his face, looked at Feng Deyuan, and said, "With your courage alone, I am impressed." The courtiers have the duty to help the gains and losses of the government and admonish the court, and they can't hide the problems if they have problems. ”

Feng Deyuan is less than fifty this year, slightly fat, with a serious face, burning eyes, raising his hands, bowing, and said in a deep tone of indomitable determination: "Thank you, Emperor." First, the minister believes that the imperial court's disaster relief policy has drawbacks, including losses, diversion for other purposes, robbery by officials and businessmen, etc., and it really falls into the hands of the victims, and less than one-tenth is left. ”

Zhu Xu nodded slightly, and said, "That's right, someone has already told me before, I am reflecting, and I also asked the cabinet to re-examine and continue." ”

Feng Deyuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and his heart beat faster. He was gambling this time, and he knew that the governor yamen was secretly investigating him, and the only way to save himself was the emperor in front of him!

Like a strong man who is loyal to the country and is not afraid of death, he raised his hand and said again: "Second, the minister thinks that the court is immoral, and he should not use a butcher's knife against Shilin!" ”

As soon as this sentence came out, the room became even quieter.

Dozens of people in the Donglin Party were sentenced in the court, and then how much of a storm was set off, the gentry are still criticized, it can be said that this is the court, the emperor's 'reverse scale', can not be touched!

Zhu Xu's expression remained unchanged, and his fingers were already tapping on the table next to him.

Although Zhu Xu felt a little impulsive about the Donglin Party back then, it was also a matter of necessity, nothing more than a day earlier and a day later. He is at ease, but the courtiers, regardless of whether they are in the court or in the opposition, have a problem in their hearts about this matter, like a fish in their throats.

Feng Deyuan proposed it today, perhaps selfishly, but it is also a threshold that the Shilin class cannot bypass, and there will be different statements in the history books in the future.

Zhu Xu tapped his fingers, raised his head and said, "This matter is not the imperial court, but a decision made by me." The Donglin Party is a party with privacy, and the chaos is beyond the outline, and the world is looking sideways about it, saying what 'all are positive and ying', what is positive, and how did it come? What is the 'evil party' and who decides? Since Zhang Taiyue, the atmosphere of the government and the opposition has changed dramatically, everyone hates forming a party, which one is not a party? Since the Emperor of the Apocalypse, Donglin has controlled the government, wantonly excluded dissidents, installed cronies, and gambled all over the world! I want to say a word today, those who sympathize with the Donglin Party, vainly want to rebuild the Donglin Party, regard it as a sage, and vainly try to form a party again and collapse the dynasty...... I will not allow it! Once, I killed once, a hundred times, I killed a hundred times! ”

"The minister is guilty!"

The people in the hall were shocked by Zhu Xu's murderous words, and hurriedly stood up and raised their hands to confess.

Zhu Xu waved his hand, looked at Feng Deyuan and said lightly: "Say third." ”

Feng Deyuan's eyes were afraid, and the corners of his face twitched slightly.

I thought that the emperor would borrow the donkey from the slope, say a few words to soften, and appease Shilin, but he didn't expect to get such a murderous sentence, and even the goodwill he earned just now was lost, so he could only pin his trust on the last one.

"Thirdly,"

Feng Deyuan raised his hand and said, "The minister thinks that the 'Nine Regulations' promulgated by the imperial court are too strict, unbuffered, and too rigid. The minister suggested that when there was a three-to-five-year reprieve to tell the world, if this was the case, the matter of Lord Yang Fengzhong would not happen. South, mountain. Even the imperial court in the east was gloomy......"

Huang Chengyuan and the others all looked at each other secretly, and shook their heads slightly at the same time.

This Lord Feng really doesn't know the times, these 'nine rules' were mentioned by the emperor two years ago, and now it will be postponed for another three or five years, who is this slapping in the face? Especially mentioned Yang Fengzhong, the emperor was there at the time, he witnessed everything, where is his advice, it is clear that he is hitting the road to death with no indomitable progress!

"Lord Feng, how much have you collected in the past two years?" Zhu Xu said with a smile.
