。 The flaming red banner of Mingjiao hung over the county seat of Pujiang County, and the city was full of Mingjiao people wrapped in red scarves and armed with knives and guns, and everyone's face was full of excitement and dissatisfaction......

At the head of the city, there were several leaders of the Ming Sect with big red cloaks, the first of whom was unusually burly, in his fifties, with eyes like copper bells and knotted hair, like a vicious tiger. He is Qin Zhongyuan, the tiger king of Mingjiao, one of the four protectors of the Ming Sect, standing proudly at the head of the city at this moment, pointing out the country, and looking forward to himself.

Standing beside him turned out to be Mizhi County, Lao Mi was still wearing the seven-grade official uniform of the imperial court, but he was also surrounded by a red cloak, which looked nondescript. At the moment he was angry, his rosacea was flushed, and his old face was so tense that even the wrinkles were almost gone.

"Still angry, old rice," Seeing him like this, Qin Zhongyuan smiled like a bell: "Hasn't the old man already restrained the children?" ”

"It's late." Mi Zhixian paused and said: "How did we make three chapters of the law before entering the city, but you didn't do any of them."

"Mi-sama, you're over." Before Qin Zhongyuan could speak, his subordinates were not happy at first: "The sons and daughters have been holding back for so long, and they can't control hurting a few people for a while, playing with a few women, and grabbing something, what's the point?" After a pause, he said: "Aren't you all robbing it now, so why don't you hold on to it......"

"To put it lightly, a fire burned half of the county, how do you let the people think of you" Mi Zhixian said angrily: "The Tiger King was a Red Turban Army, you should know how they rose and how they ended"

"The surname is Mi, we protect the Dharma to give you face, don't give face and shame" Someone said angrily: "There is a kind of don't expect us to be in the Red Turban Army, how can there be a reason to pick up a bowl to eat, put down chopsticks and scold your mother"

"Shut up" Tiger King suddenly shouted: "How can you talk to Mr. Mi" said and snorted: "Mr. Mi This is what it looks like to do great things, we are the Red Turban Army, not bandits"

Hearing what the Tiger King said, Mi Zhixian's face softened slightly: "It's not too late to make amends......

"How do you make it up?" The Tiger King asked.

"Rape, murder kills, wounds and theft." Mi Zhixian said in a deep voice.

"It's too much," Tiger King's men shouted angrily.

"......" The Tiger King's face was also gloomy, and he understood the truth, but he was a well-known calf protector. Besides, it's just the next city, everyone is on the rise, if it's not only useless, but also has to lose his head, how can he be the boss?

But if he wants to defend Pujiang City, he can't do without the help of Mizhi County and the Zheng family, which makes him embarrassed.

"It's not that I can't get along with you." Mi Zhixian sighed and said: "The popularity of Pujiang is the Zheng family, and the Zheng family is Pujiang, if you don't punish the murderers severely, how can you let the Zheng family join in?" ”

"Old man Zheng said yes or not." The Tiger King's subordinates said coldly: "Our family's Qinghu Eight Achievements were killed by the Zheng family......

When it comes to the apprentice who died in vain, the Tiger King became more and more firm in his thoughts: "There is a way that a slap does not make a sound." Before serious military discipline, you have to let me see Emperor Jianwen first" After a pause: "If he can't come, won't the brothers be pitted to death?" ”

"Your Majesty has already gone to Zheng Zhai Town, and personally persuaded Master Zheng to go." Mi Zhixian said lightly: "There will be good news soon." ”

"Really?" The Tiger King couldn't help but be overjoyed, and then said unhappily: "You old rice, you are not honest, let my son go to death, but I sent someone to pick peaches secretly."

It turned out that the fleet that suddenly came out and was entangled with the officials and soldiers was sent by Mingjiao at the request of Mizhi County, and the gang had just returned...... After a hard fight, more than half of the dead and wounded, but Jianwen was snatched away. The Tiger King was still guessing, which way the fairy was so able to pinch and calculate, it turned out that Mizhi County sent his own people to follow behind......

"Why did the Tiger King say that?" Mi Zhixian said lightly: "You and I are ministers of the same palace, so naturally we have to work together." My people saved His Majesty, it's better than falling into the hands of the officials and soldiers, right? ”

"Don't digress, I mean, why didn't you say hello earlier?" The Tiger King said angrily.

"The battlefield is changing rapidly, who could have predicted that situation?" Mi Zhixian said: "I just sent someone to take a look......

"Hmph" the Tiger King snorted, he didn't bother to argue with the scholar, because he couldn't fight at all......

Mi Zhi County guessed correctly, Jian Wenjun had already arrived in Zhengzhai Town from the underground secret passage. But he won't be in public until a decision is made. The Zheng family regards his arrival as the top priority for everything...... Of course, the declared reason is not that the former emperor arrived, but that the rebellion of the religion and the fall of the county town would give the town sufficient reason for martial law.

Master Zheng was full of sadness and came to the library building in the backyard of the ancestral hall. A scholarly family like the Zheng family naturally has this kind of thing, and there are a lot of rules, not to mention fire prevention, theft, insect and rat prevention, no one can open the door without the patriarch's key......

Opening the door of the library building, Master Zheng went in alone, turned around and locked the door, and then went upstairs tremblingly.

Up to the second floor, Mr. Zheng came to a bookcase, struggled to identify for a long time, pulled out a book in the corner, stretched his hand in, and touched it for a long time, and suddenly heard the sound of 'clucking, a large bookshelf against the wall slowly slid out a foot, revealing a small black door, blowing through the yin wind.

The big families who came from the war era all like to dig escape secrets, and the Zheng family can be wiped out at any time, so naturally they will spare no effort. Master Zheng stepped in and twisted a knocker-like thing, and the large bookshelf had slid back to its original place......

As if a trick, Master Zheng had an extra dead wind lamp in his hand, and he slowly walked forward by the light, only to see that the road inside was even more complicated, with seven turns and eight turns, and roads everywhere. This is called the gossip ** array, except for one that can be passed, the rest of the rules are not passable, which shows how much thought has been spent.

I don't know how long I walked, but the old man saw a bright light in front of him, so he learned a few crickets, and there were a few echoes. After a while, I saw a person hurriedly coming to greet him, and it turned out to be Zheng Jiaoyu.

"Uncle came so fast." Zheng Jiaoyu went to support Master Zheng, but Zheng Tang shook off his hand, didn't let him touch himself, and sneered: "You learn from Cao Cao to coerce the princes of heaven, I can't come over obediently?" ”

"If the uncle is angry, it will be ...... to go back to the family law to serve" Zheng Jiaoyu said cheekily: "But for now, don't let Your Majesty wait for a long time......

"Hmph......" Master Zheng snorted angrily: "Sinner through the ages" He didn't say the subject, and he didn't know what Lu Dao was referring to......

said so, but Master Zheng refused to lose the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, so he hurriedly stepped forward in full clothes and came to a secret room guarded by the purple-faced man.

The purple-faced man turned sideways to let Zheng Tang in, but blocked Zheng Jiaoyu outside and said, "The master wants to talk to the master alone." ”

"Ugh." Zheng Jiaoyu had to wait outside.

Although it is an underground secret room, it is very spacious, Jianwen is sitting on a futon, with an oil lamp in front of him, and the orange light is like a bean; A stove of sandalwood, milk-colored cigarettes......

Jianwen was closing his eyes and chanting, and Master Zheng knelt down and listened for a while, and found that it was a mantra of the past......

"Nam no Amitaba Night, Dortagada Night... Amiriddo, Sidhamvavi; Amido, Vigaran, Tarda, Takari, Suphaha......"

Listening to Jianwen's recitation, Master Zheng couldn't help but be a little distracted, and in the white smoke, he recalled the Jianwen period he had personally experienced......

Emperor Jianwen's name was Zhu Yunkang, and he was the grandson of Emperor Taizu. In order to maintain the inheritance system of the eldest and put an end to future disputes on the issue of succession to the throne, after the early death of Taizhu Biao, Taizu established Yunkang as the emperor's grandson in accordance with the principle of inheritance. After that, Taizu summoned the world's famous Confucians and carefully taught Yun Kang, hoping that he could become a qualified king.

Emperor Taizu was wise and martial, not like a mortal, but he also made mistakes all his life, especially in his understanding of scholars, he was always confused. He personally experienced the incompetence of Confucian governance, so he suspended the imperial examination for ten years, but he still inevitably looked up to the scholars and handed over the blank sheet of paper heirs to a group of Confucian scholars to teach.

Taisun's teachers Qi Tai, Huang Cheng, Fang Xiaoru and others are all extraordinary in character and knowledge, but most of these scholars who are full of economy have no administrative experience, let alone experience in struggle. Their thoughts and thoughts are not in line with the words of the saints, and they are also full of wishful thinking...... Useless scholars are just struggling to deal with everyday problems, let alone complex and sinister national politics.

And...... A good person will never be a good emperor, this is a truth that has been repeatedly verified for thousands of years. And Yun Kang inherited his father's gentle character, which is not similar to Emperor Taizu at all. As a result, the meek character and Confucian education combined to make the young grandson scholar angry and gentle, and from the bottom of his heart he did not agree with his grandfather's cruel policies, and he sincerely longed for the practice of what the sage called "benevolent government."

In the thirty-first year of Hongwu, Taizu died, and in the same year, Yunkang ascended to the pole, and the following year changed to Yuan Jianwen, called Emperor Jianwen, at the age of 21. At that time, many of his uncles were in the prime of life, and they had a large army in all directions, and they were eyeing this weak nephew...... Since he became the grandson, Emperor Jianwen had a great sense of crisis, he was very afraid that his uncles would hurt him, and now he finally became the emperor, he couldn't wait to change this situation, so Huang Cheng, Qi Tai, Fang Xiaoru and others were promoted to Hanlin bachelors, and participated in national politics...... Since then, the formulation and implementation of national policies have been controlled by these three people, and they have become the de facto prime ministers. The reason why there is no name of Xiangguo is because Taizu wrote the order of 'not allowing the prime minister to be established) into the ancestral teachings......

Thus, an inexperienced, idealistic, but extremely insecure young emperor, and a few morally noble nerds, began a jaw-dropping imbecile performance...... To use a very appropriate analogy, it is like playing with the landlord in later generations, the landlord holds two bombs in his hand and brings the king, but he plays himself to death, which is absolutely beyond the power of human beings.
