Chapter 939: Bad Reputation

"Hehehe,,,"

Emperor Chongzhen laughed happily, and felt a rare burst of happiness.

After being happy, Emperor Chongzhen asked Zhou Yanru: "Then according to Aiqing's opinion, who can preside over this inventory of officials in various ministries?" ”

Zhou Yanru had a heroic appearance like dying for the country, and replied: "Your Majesty, since ancient times, all rectification and reform are all things that offend people, and how many rectification reformers will end up miserable!"

However, national affairs are important! The country is important! In front of the family and the country, what is the personal life and death, honor and disgrace!

The minister is not talented, I hope that Mao Sui will recommend himself to preside over this investigation for the emperor, and he will definitely find out all the people who are doing nothing in the court and the corpses are vegetarians, and all of them will be driven away!

For the sake of the emperor and the Ming Dynasty, the ministers are left with no bones, and they will not hesitate! ”

Speaking of which, Zhou Yanru was already an excited old face flushed, that look, what a loyal minister and good face who was dedicated to serving the country!

When Emperor Chongzhen saw that Zhou Yanru said so sincerely, he couldn't help but pat him on the shoulder and said with emotion: "If there are more people in the court like Aiqing, why should I worry about the injustice on the side, and the thieves will not be destroyed!" ”

Emperor Chongzhen is really moved in his heart, as Zhou Yanru said, since ancient times, no matter what kind of rectification and reform, it is the most offensive, and once offended, it is to offend a large group of people,

In the officialdom, basically their respective interest circles have been formed, and they are tacitly accepted and respected by most people, so everyone pays attention to the protection of officials and officials, and they are harmonious.

If you run to reform and rectify, that is to break people's jobs and damage people's interests!

In this way, the people who preside over the rectification and reform are destined to be unacceptable to the vast majority of people, so their fate can be predicted, most of them are very miserable, that is, they end up with a broken family, and that abounds!

Now Zhou Yanru can ignore his personal danger and have the courage to pick up heavy burdens, how can Emperor Chongzhen not be moved!

Moreover, Zhou Yanru, as the first assistant of the cabinet, has enough official position and ability, let him rectify it, then he can rest assured!

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen said to Zhou Yanru: "Aiqing is loyal to the country and has the courage to do things, I am very pleased, since Aiqing took the initiative to ask for help, then I will hand over the matter of rectifying the rule of officials to Aiqing!" ”

Seeing this, Zhou Yanru solemnly replied: "Thank you for the emperor's trust, and the ministers will return the purity of my Ming Dynasty, and I will never dare to live up to the emperor's expectations!" ”

"Good, good, good!"

Emperor Chongzhen excitedly said three good words in a row, which shows how much Emperor Chongzhen has great expectations for Zhou Yanru!

After getting the emperor's will, Zhou Yanru didn't dare to delay more, so he hurriedly said goodbye to the emperor and went to rectify the rule of officials!

As soon as this news came out, the civil and military officials were in an uproar, and they were all so shocked that they couldn't speak for a long time!

How can this be good, the rule of officials must be rectified, what kind of moth is this emperor going to do!

Especially those Donglin Party members, it was even more shocking and inexplicable, I didn't expect that in a short period of time, things would change like this!

Now Zhou Yanru is holding the emperor's will, and he wants to use the case of Yu Hengqing to mint money to vigorously rectify the rule of officials and investigate those officials who do not act.

What is inaction, where is there a standard for this, people say you don't act, you just don't act, people say you do, then you are acting, it all depends on people's mouth!

Qian Qianyi and a group of Donglin party members hurriedly met to discuss countermeasures, and then decided to meet Emperor Chongzhen.

But when he ran to ask for a face-to-face meeting, Emperor Chongzhen didn't see them, and the purpose of their coming, Emperor Chongzhen knew it with the back of his head, so he naturally didn't want to see them.

Now that he has just authorized Zhou Yanru to rectify the rule of officials, if he turns his head and meets with the Donglin Party members and listens to their opinions, doesn't this make Zhou Yanru feel that his attitude is not resolute?

In this way, this rectification of the rule of officials has not yet begun, and it is necessary to be stillborn, it is precisely because of this consideration that Emperor Chongzhen is unwilling to meet Qian Qianyi and them.

In this way, but Qian Qianyi and them were in a hurry, there was no way, in the end, they had to come up with the usual countermeasures to deal with the emperor, that is, to roll around.

No, that's not going to work! We want to petition, we want to write collectively, so you can't see the emperor!

So Qian Qianyi shouted at dozens or hundreds of officials, as well as many scholars, who knelt outside the palace to petition, asking to meet the emperor and ask the emperor not to be deceived by the traitorous villain!

As soon as these people knelt down to petition, they immediately caused an uproar, and the whole capital was a sensation!

You must know that the right to speak in public opinion at this time is controlled by the Donglin Party, the Donglin Party says that if a person is a good person, then he is a good person, and he is not like a person!

The Donglin Party said that if a person is a bad person, then he is a bad person, and he is not like a bad person!

Whenever the Donglin Party encounters any difficulties in politics, especially when they are facing the emperor, when they have nothing to do, they will organize a group and kneel down to petition, so as to launch public opinion propaganda and push the emperor to the forefront!

This time, their strategy worked again, from the princes and nobles in the capital to the peddlers and pawns, they were all talking about the Donglin Party gentlemen petitioning outside the palace gate, and for a while, it was an uproar in public opinion!

"You know what? The court has a traitor! Now we are in trouble! ”

"But it's not, the gentlemen of the Donglin Party have all gone to petition outside the palace gate, that scene is really spectacular, poor gentlemen who serve the country and the people, their heads are going to be sunburned in the sun, and the emperor has not come out to show his face, nor has he said a word of comfort, it really shouldn't be!"

"Tut-tut,,, who do you say this traitor is? Why is it so hateful, it turns out that the gentlemen of the Donglin Party who have provoked so many can't stand it! ”

"Who else can there be, that Zhou Yanru, who looks like a sharp-mouthed monkey cheek, a thief with a thief head and a thief's brain, compared with the gentlemen of the Donglin Party, it is not a good thing at first glance!" ,,,

For a while, the people were talking about it, scolding Zhou Yanru, it was even more foul language, just this half a day's work, Zhou Yanru is famous on the street!

Pity these little people, I don't know what happened here, and I don't know why these Donglin Party gentlemen ran outside the palace gate to petition.

This is not surprising, the common people, where do they think so much, isn't it just a lively look, plus the status of the Donglin Party has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, they naturally speak to the Donglin Party.
