Chapter 238 Your Majesty, are you crazy?

In the blink of an eye, forty-seven years of Taixing have passed, and time has come to Taixing forty-eight years.

The old emperor is in good health, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's succession to the throne is far away. All the princes are watching with eager eyes. Everyone still has a chance, so why not work together to bring down the prince?

The atmosphere in the palace became increasingly tense and suffocating, and the people of Dongzhou were miserable, with families and families being destroyed everywhere.

Jiang Tu became a national thief that everyone could find and punish.

In March, Dongzhou Jushan bandits raided the local county town and killed officials in rebellion. Seven days later, the Dongzhou religious bandits rose up, sweeping across the entire Dongzhou in an instant, and entered the city effortlessly. The prefect of Dongzhou hanged himself, and only one son of his wife, concubines, and children escaped.

After the religious bandits occupied the city, they opened the treasury to provide relief to the people. After that, they coerced the people and went south, killing scholars, landlords, wealthy households, and officials along the way. As long as you don't believe in religion, regardless of your identity, you will be killed!

The wealthy landlords who originally wanted to spend money to buy peace suddenly couldn't bear it anymore. They provided money and grain, organized the tenant farmers to become brave, picked up hoes, sickles, guns, swords and sticks, and began to organize an organized resistance against the religious bandits.

The local government had money, food and personnel, and the confidence to resist. The attack of the religious bandits was greatly hindered.

At this time, the Jinyi Guards were in action, but the officers and soldiers had been lingering nearby, waiting for orders from above. The superiors asked them not to go out to kill the religious bandits for the time being, so the officers and soldiers could only watch helplessly as the religious bandits caused harm to the place.

Envelopes of impeachment memorials from local officials flew into the capital and into the palace. They did not impeach the local officers and soldiers for their inaction, but instead impeached Jiang Tu and Jiang Tu's minions who had provoked the rebellion among the religious bandits and the people.

Officials in the capital also took action, especially the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, whose level of swearing was definitely top-notch. Without a single curse word, all eighteen generations of Jiang Tu’s ancestors were scolded.

At the court meeting, some excited officials spat directly in Jiang Tu's face.

Jiang Tu:......

Feeling aggrieved and aggrieved, you will do what you want.

The more wronged he is today, the more the old emperor will feel sorry for him and will give him double compensation afterwards.

Therefore, he just stood there and allowed the courtiers to criticize and insult him. He did not retaliate when he was scolded or hit, and he looked completely honest and his posture was very precise.

Qiu Defu, who was standing next to the old emperor, snorted coldly and secretly scolded Jiang Tu for his ambition, deliberately pretending to be pitiful, and doing one thing in front of him and doing another in front of him. This will act as an honest person in front of the old emperor. Once the old emperor is gone, Jiang Tu will never be able to scold or hit him without fighting back. He will jump higher than the courtiers.

The old emperor was completely deceived by Jiang Tu.

The only person present who remained silent throughout the whole process was Yi Qian Xungui. Looking at the chaotic court meeting, everyone looked like clay sculptures, not saying a word, not making a sound, not even frowning.

Some of the agitated nobles wanted to stand up and express their opinions, but other nobles looked back and said, "Why are you causing trouble!" Can we expect to come up with anything useful at this court meeting? Don't waste your words. Anyway, as long as we fight a war, we cannot do without honor. As long as there is a war, money and food are indispensable. The final result has already been made clear: the nobles have won. In this case, there is no need to use your words to avoid jealousy.

The old man was on crutches. He was allowed by the old emperor to sit down and listen to politics.

During the whole process, he just sat on the chair and closed his eyes to relax with the two prime ministers.

Seeing that the commotion was getting worse and the old emperor remained silent again, the eldest man asked Li Liangcheng, the left prime minister next to him, "Doesn't the political hall have any regulations? Why don't you worry about your dignity?"

Li Liangcheng half-squinted his eyes. He looked like he might enter the coffin at any time. His gray beard hung down to his chest. He trembled two or three times with his breathing. "Do you have any advice, Lord Marquis?"

"I don't have any high opinions, but I have a few low opinions."

Wu Dashou, the right prime minister next door, couldn't help laughing when he heard this witty remark.

"Then let's listen to the Marquis' humble opinion first."

"It is clear that His Majesty will die to protect the Yangtze River, so it is better to cut off his claws and claws first and let the people complain. In this way, the chaos among the bandits and people in Dongzhou will be stopped overnight."

"Congratulations, Lord Marquis!" Right Prime Minister Wu Dashou said softly.

The elder smiled back, but sneered inwardly. Everyone knew about such a simple thing, but he didn't take the initiative to speak. They are all cowards who just want to keep their official positions and have no intention of doing anything for fear of offending the old emperor.

He looked at the old emperor sitting on the dragon throne, his face became more and more mean, ungrateful, greedy and evil. A good emperor makes himself look like a traitor. If the ancestors of the Song family knew about it, they might not even be able to cover the coffin.

The old emperor was keenly aware of the eldest master's gaze and glanced at it, his eyes cold and ruthless, with a strong murderous intent.

The elder was very understanding and immediately lowered his head in an attitude of surrender. The old emperor then changed his gaze and looked at the group of people making the most noise.

"Someone is going to die!" the elder thought. The group of people who made the most noise today had to go to the prison. Whether you can survive depends on whether the backer behind you is strong enough. It's pity for these young people, they are treated as pawns and cannon fodder, and they will spend their best years in prison.

The old ministers in the court were just like the old emperor, becoming more and more mean and vicious.

In a court meeting, just listening to the quarrel and not solving any serious matters.

Finally, the old emperor walked away and the court meeting was dissolved.

The two prime ministers and ministers and officials were invited to Tai Chi Palace to hold a small court meeting. The small court meeting is the meeting to solve problems. Eight times out of ten, the large court meeting is used to quarrel and vent anger.

In less than two months, the rebellion between religious bandits and civilians has spread to three prefectures and twelve counties, and countless people have been brutally killed.

Finally, the court issued an order to suppress the bandits.

The officers and soldiers, who had been thirsty for a long time, rushed into the battlefield with great momentum. The bloody millstone strangulation began.

The Jinyiwei accurately conveyed the old emperor's order: Kill! Kill them all! It doesn't matter even if the population of Dongzhou is killed. No prisoners, no one left. However, it must be done secretly and no handles can be left.

The order was conveyed through the Jinyiwei, without going through the court, without being stamped by the political hall, and without going through the normal post station post system, which was obviously to cover up the old emperor's anger. He wanted to use the entire Dongzhou to quell his anger. He didn't want a prisoner, he wanted to kill all the religious bandits. Even if they were forced to join the rebel army, even if they were coerced by the people, they could not escape the death.

When the killing started, human life was as cheap as livestock. I don't know how many innocent souls died under the swords of the officers and soldiers.

The paper can't cover the fire.

Even though the Jinyiwei helped cover up, the soldiers and officers killed innocent people and religious bandits indiscriminately, and it was eventually exposed. For a time, the Jinyiwei became the target of public criticism.

In fact, everyone knew that without the order of the old emperor, the Jinyiwei would not dare to do so. As for the group of soldiers and officers, it is hard to say, so it is better not to say anything. Of course, impeachment must be impeached, and those generals who led the troops, one by one, will not be able to escape.

But now, the most important thing is what attitude the old emperor sitting on the dragon throne has.

There was a bold official who questioned the old emperor in front of him: "Your Majesty, are you crazy?"
