159 Abolition of the ancestral system


"In today's court meeting, I am very disappointed that we are facing a powerful enemy.

No one thinks about how to defend against the enemy, but they use high-sounding excuses to arbitrarily attack important officials of the court.

Without evidence of guilt, they abuse the power of hearsay and even fabricate evidence to try to achieve attack."

The reality of political opponents” Except for Hu Guang's voice, the only sound echoing at the scene was the sound of the wind.

All the courtiers were silent.

The emperor was holding the blame for this matter.

It seemed that those who stood out were going to be unlucky.

"Jianqiu is not terrible.

Our Ming Dynasty is a huge country, and there are many talented people.

Zuo Yingxuan and Lu Xiangsheng in the Battle of Changli are examples.

As long as our Ming Dynasty is united and united, it will only be a matter of time to destroy Jianqiu.

I will never Don’t worry” When Hu Guang said this, he sighed in his heart and his tone became more severe: "But look at you, how many of you have the same thoughts as me?

They still have the Ming Dynasty in their hearts, and the common people are not as good as such scum. , only selfish, thinking about fighting for power and profit, thinking of various ways to protect their own interests, even framed important officials, and wanted to suppress me in the name of ancestral system.

Haha, I really saw it today."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone, regardless of whether they had participated in the impeachment of Wen Tiren, fell to their knees, not daring to stand and bear the emperor's wrath.

Although Ruhua was also kneeling there, the emperor's anger was none of her business and she had no burden in her heart.

Seeing so many adults kneeling with me and the little monk getting angry on top, I couldn't help but cheer loudly in my heart: "Little monk, you scolded me so well.

If it wasn't inconvenient, I would have scolded you for you."

Hu Guang glanced at the ministers present and said sadly: "If this trend persists, will you still have the majesty of the imperial court and me as the emperor in your eyes?

The Ming Dynasty will be completely defeated by you.

If Taizu knew about it, I'm afraid I will be severely punished for being an unfilial descendant of mine, for not following the ancestral system, for allowing you to have no king's laws, and for having no king.

My father should skin you all and turn them into grass, so that your memory will be long."

As soon as these words were spoken, the civil and military officials immediately remembered Taizu's methods of punishing corruption.

Suddenly, many officials with ulterior motives broke out in cold sweat, especially those who had been at the forefront just now, and they all collapsed to the ground like Cao Yubian.

The howling of the cold wind seemed to be getting louder and louder, like the impermanence of life in hell, laughing strangely in their ears.

Hu Guang looked at Cao Yubian and others, and declared loudly: "Party strife must not last forever.

In the future, whoever attacks the court officials without any solid evidence, no matter who you are, I will never give mercy to you."

The implication is that the censor's right to hear rumors and report events was abolished.

This is the ancestral system.

If it were normal, a lot of courtiers would probably come out to oppose it.

But at this moment, there are reminders of peeling off skin and filling it with straw.

Who dares to say that we must follow the ancestral system?

Among these officials present, there are How many people have really clean hands and feet?

In fact, in ancient times, it was generally based on the inference of guilt, that is, you were considered guilty at the beginning, and then you had to prove your innocence; this is exactly the opposite of the inference of innocence in later generations.

Later generations will theoretically treat you as innocent at the beginning, and the prosecutorial agency will have to prove your guilt, rather than proving your innocence yourself.

As a person who traveled through time in later generations, Hu Guang had long wanted to correct their views.

It is really such an environment that it is too easy to cause party strife.

After making the announcement at this time, seeing that no ministers dared to object face to face, he issued an order: "Cao Yubian fabricated charges to attack important officials of the imperial court, which had a bad impact.

He was taken out and chopped off, and his head was taken off and hung on the Meridian Gate, and it was Yuan Chonghuan and Luo Yangxing together issued a warning to remind everyone present not to break the law or violate discipline."

The two guards in Jinyi who were on duty immediately stepped forward, dragged Cao Yubian away and left.

In just one morning, the dignified Censor of Zuodu, who was full of righteous words, became a negative case and was nailed to the pillar of shame for the rest of his life.

"Zhao Qian, Sun Li and others confiscated their homes, dismissed their posts and sent them to the army, and then went to Ningxia to educate the people.

Only those who sincerely repent and teach the people who have made merit for the country and the people can return to their place of origin."

Strictly speaking, these are all censors.

In the past, if the emperor heard something was going on, if he didn't accept it, the most he would do was reprimand him, and then he would be careful of his political opponents to fight back.

But today is different from the past.

Cao Yubian fabricated evidence to attack the important officials of the imperial court and was exposed in court, which caused Thunder to be furious.

Not only did the censor's right to hear rumors and report events be revoked, but they were also treated as a counterexample.

It can be said that It's unexpected, but it's also reasonable.

Hu Guang looked at Liu Xingzuo and continued: "Jin Yiwei let me down before, but now he knows his shame and is brave.

I am very relieved.

Liu Qing Xin has made great contributions and is strict with himself.

He has always expressed his gratitude to me in all human relations."

Reporting, I am very relieved.”

The two of them came to praise the Jinyiwei and the Jinyiwei commander with great comfort, which made all the Jinyiwei captains on duty at the scene straighten their backs, and wiped away the feeling of being useless that Luo Yangxing had been punished before, and then was suppressed by Dongchang.

When they looked at the commander Liu Xingzuo, their eyes were full of admiration.

They felt that under the leadership of the new commander, the Jin Yiwei would definitely be able to feel proud and proud.

Hu Guang's words invisibly helped Liu Xingzuo stand up, helped him further establish his authority in the Jinyi Guards, and consolidated his position.

Hu Guang did this just casually, and then announced loudly: "After today, all those who have official positions, if they have human relations, and the amount exceeds five taels of silver, they will report to the East Factory on their own and pay it to the public; otherwise, if they are detained by the factory guard, It is verified that regardless of who gives or receives the gift, they will all be punished as offering or accepting bribes.”

Taking this opportunity, Hu Guang drew the red line again, and then said in a gentle tone: "Let's all get back together."

During this process, Ruhua, as a member of the Jinyi Guards, had nothing to do with her and retreated under the guidance of the chamberlain.

Naturally, her merits will be rewarded by the commander of the Imperial Guards, and there is no need for the emperor to personally intervene.

When she retreated, she looked up several times to look at the majestic little monk on the throne.

She sighed secretly in her heart and gave up any thought she shouldn't have.

The ministers all stood up again and stood in line.

During this process, there was no need for the silent whip to sound, and the whole process was quiet.

Hu Guang also sat back on the throne, glanced at the ministers, and then said loudly: "I want to discuss the most important matter with you this morning."

Upon hearing this, all the civil and military officials raised their heads one by one and looked at the emperor with a trace of doubt in their eyes.

They were a little puzzled.

They didn't know what important matter it was that was disturbed by Cao Yubian and the others.

The emperor said solemnly: "I have received news that Jianlu, under the strategy of strengthening the wall and clearing the country, can no longer hold on.

At this time, he should be withdrawing from the capital and leaving the customs."

Upon hearing the news, it was a good thing that the hearts of all the civil and military officials immediately relaxed a lot, and the atmosphere became somewhat gentle invisibly.

But they were happy too early, the emperor hadn't finished speaking yet:
