Zhou Zhaoyan kept staring at Wen Tiren, and seeing that he was always silent, his heart became more and more determined.
Raising his head and chest, he looked like a scholar leader, his eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice: "Lord Wen, I have been studying hard for more than ten years in the cold window, in order to once enter the department, glorify the ancestors, but now you are blocked by corrupt officials and corrupt officials, as a waiter of the Ministry of Rites, the chief examiner of the current department, shouldn't you say something?"
” "Please also ask Lord Wen to open Chrysostom and answer us!"
"Yes, if Lord Wen doesn't answer, I'll sign a letter of 10,000 words to see if the adults in those halls and cabinets are really blind!"
"I believe that the adults in the court will always have upright ministers, and they will not be complicit!"
"Lord Wen, is it possible that you have already acquiesced, please say something to Lord Wen!"
More and more scholars gathered, more than 300 people, blocking the streets on both sides, and the crowd was excited.
Wen Tiren just stood there, with his hands behind his back, holding his stomach up, not saying a word, letting these people cry out for a tsunami, he stood still.
The matter here naturally quickly alarmed all aspects of the capital, after all, the 'Wei Zhongxian rebellion' case has not been completely over, and Beizhili has always been in a relatively tense state.
Zhang Wenda is the secretary of the Criminal Department, and listening to Liao Changyong's report at this moment, his expression suddenly sank slightly.
The current tone of the Ming court is 'stability', although this 'stability' is often broken by the emperor's willful behavior, but it is still needed.
As soon as the 'ban' comes out, the scholars are bound to be turbulent, and the turmoil is certainly not small, and the cabinet has decided to 'don't ask', but if the angry scholars beat the waiter of the Ministry of Rites in public, the chief examiner of the current department, the cabinet just wants to ignore it, and once the cabinet intervenes, the slightest bias will set off a bigger storm!
The things of the people who read books in the world are the most troublesome, their mouths, a pen can force people to death, not to mention that there are still so many people, and it is more involved!
Liao Changyong had been promoted to the rank of squire of the Criminal Department, he looked at Zhang Wenda's expression, and guessed that he was embarrassed, took a step closer, and said in a low voice: "My lord, why don't we send someone to protect Lord Wen and rescue him, and don't care about anything else?"
” Zhang Wenda snorted coldly, looked up at the outside, and said: "No matter what we do at this time, it will add fuel to the fire, not to mention that we can't send people, and others can't either, even if Wen Tiren is really beaten, the cabinet will press the matter, and the big thing will turn into a small ......."
Liao Changyong frowned and said, "My lord, if this is the case, what is the majesty of our criminal department and cabinet?"
What if these people had to make an inch?
When the time comes, I am afraid that it will be even more difficult to clean up, and our criminal department will bear the brunt of being held accountable. ” Zhang Wenda naturally knew that he was thinking expressionlessly.
He actually knows very well in his heart that the current emperor doesn't like him, and the root cause is that in the third year of the Apocalypse, the emperor wanted him to be the governor of King Hui's mansion, and he played tricks and got out of Beijing.
The reason why he can still ascend to a high position and be the same assistant minister is just a means for the emperor to show favor to Jiangnan Shilin, but whenever he shows his flaws, he will definitely be kicked back to his hometown without hesitation.
However, he has his arrogance, and in government affairs, he does not approve of Zhu Xu's ups and downs and drastic moves.
The scholars made trouble, and the root cause was that Zhu Xu was too anxious to reform and didn't understand the way of Huairou.
He has the same mind as Bi Ziyan and others, that is, to prevent Zhu Xu from 'messing around' as much as possible, stabilize the dynasty, and control the situation.
Of course, they support the 'New Deal', it is the consensus that Daming needs to be purged, and 'Zhongxing Daming' is the firm goal of all of them!
Huairou, Zhang Wenda understands, he has the means to deal with these scholars, but now is not the apocalypse, it has been the Wanli period, too many things are beyond him, not to mention the cabinet, the criminal department is not completely controllable by him, many things have been drawn 'red lines', and few people dare to step on the line.
Zhang Wenda pondered for a long time in his heart, and said, "Send someone to keep an eye on it, don't show up if you don't have anything, if the scholars want to do it, and then save people after a while, you must not come forward first, you can't be rude to the scholars, you can't give people a handle, you know?"
” Liao Changyong raised his hand and said, "The lower official obeys the order!"
” is not only Zhang Wenda who pays attention to Wen Tiren, but Chen Qiyu of Shuntian Mansion also has a headache and doesn't know what to do?
Bi Ziyan, Sun Chengzong, King Jing and others were all watching, but no one moved, and it was also clear that this was a raging fire, and any move could be a burning fire, burning to the whole world!
Wen Tiren stood there, not saying a word.
The anger of the scholars grew bigger and bigger, gathered around him, angry saliva could already spray on his face, and he still did not move, with a calm state of Mount Tai collapsing in front of him without changing his color.
Wen Tiren's guard quietly walked over and whispered in his ear: "My lord, I'll take you out......
Wen Tiren put his hands behind his back, his expression remained unchanged, and he still didn't say a word.
The guards understood and quietly retreated.
Zhou Zhaoyan and the people confronted Wen Tiren for almost a stick of incense, he sprayed too much saliva, he was a little tired, his expression was ugly, his anger was a little uncontrollable, and he said angrily: "Lord Wen, do you think that if you don't say a word, we will retreat?"
If you don't speak today, we won't stop!
We will never allow favoritism and irregularities to be conducted, and we will fight to the end......"
Before he finished speaking, he saw that behind Wen Tiren, someone seemed to be walking.
It doesn't matter what he sees, it's not one or two people walking, but one after another, and it's decreasing rapidly.
He frowned, turned his head to look, and found that the number of people behind him was also decreasing, and some people in household clothes approached these people and muttered something, and then the person who was talking lowered his head, hesitated, and quietly left.
There are more and more of these 'family members', coming from both sides, all whispering, bitter talking, and more of them are beginning to leave.
But there were still people who were not persuaded, and their voices were sonorous and powerful, echoing in the alleys.
"I'm not leaving!
You go back and tell your father that even if he is dismissed, I will fight to the end, and I will also take a good exam!
” "You go back and tell Uncle Qin, one person does things and one person is in charge, the court is so dark, how can people who read the books of sages be indifferent!"

"If I don't go back, will I endanger my relatives?
Hmph, so what!
I believe that evil does not prevail over good, these traitors will not end well, and they can't always cover the sky with one hand!
” Zhou Zhaoyan was very useful when he heard this, his eyes turned to Wen Tiren again, and he said with an indifferent expression: "Lord Wen, you threaten the family of the scholar, I will definitely play this matter to the court and disclose it to the world, I will see if the court doesn't even want the last face, or directly tear off the fig leaf, and admit that Jinke is selling official mantles......"
"I'm sorry Brother Zhou......"
"Brother Zhou can't stop ......"
"Well, I'll go first......" “…… Brother Zhou, let's go......"
"Brother Zhou, let's forget it......"
Before Zhou Zhaoyan's words fell, a few people said a few words weakly, turned around quickly and disappeared into the alley.
It didn't take long for only a dozen people to be left in the alley, everyone was resentful, and their eyes were cold to Wen Tiren.
"Your Excellency."
The guard behind Wen Tiren handed him a piece of paperwork.
Wen Tiren took the paperwork, rolled his eyes, and said lightly: "Zhou Zhaoyan, Tong.
City people, three-year-old father funeral, six-year-old mother remarried, sojourn in his uncle Zhou Yanlu's house, fifteen-year-old township test to fall, sixteen-year-old widowed sister-in-law committed suicide by throwing herself into a well, eighteen-year-old fall, uncle died of illness, you inherited the family property, the next year aunt died of illness, there is a green building, two gambling houses, twenty-one-year-old to buy the township test examiner, to raise people, to know the county is not, and then to participate in the examination......
Is there a mistake in what the official said?
” Zhou Zhaoyan's face had already changed, and he was gloomy and terrifying at this moment, gritting his teeth and saying, "Lord Wen is really painstaking, even if it's true, so what?"
” Wen Tiren ignored him, turned to Zhou Zhaoyan's right, and said, "Qian Dashan, Yang.
Zhou people, since childhood has the name of a prodigy, in the sixth year of the Apocalypse, he was jealous with people in Qingxiangyuan, beating people's lives, and protecting his life with money, he should have been exiled to the border, why are you here now?
” Qian Dashan is twenty-five this year, Si Swenwen looks, when he heard Wen Tiren's words, cold sweat trickled, and his expression was pale and terrifying.
Wen Tiren's gaze turned to Zhou Zhaoyan's left side again, and said, "Zhao Fu, Hand.
Danren, my father is a remnant of the Donglin Party, and he has long been banned from the imperial examination, and you are also on the prohibition list......"
"Han Guangyuan, you were originally a soldier in Liaodong, and you were a fugitive in the sixth year of the Apocalypse, hiding in the Guannei ......"
"Chu Jiangyou, your Chu family has been a businessman for generations, and your father colluded with Jiannu at the beginning of Chongzhen to smuggle contraband, but he is a fugitive, you should know where he is......"
Wen Tiren almost named the people present, the family history of these people is extremely detailed, and the details are frightening.
These people had their heads bowed, their eyes flashing, and their bodies trembling.
It's terrible that the imperial court actually checked everything about them!
Even Zhou Zhaoyan was trembling at the moment, and cold sweat kept breaking out on his head.
He's done too many shady things, and he's killed his head ten times!
I'm afraid that people will know, and I'm afraid that people will check!
Wen Tiren stood up again, and said indifferently: "Do you want this official to continue?"
” Everyone looked awe-inspiring, and suddenly Qian Dashan knelt on the ground with a pout, and said loudly: "Ask Lord Wen to spare his life, the students will never dare again, beg Lord Wen to bypass me this time......"
"Ah, Lord Wen spares my life, I don't dare anymore, we will never get involved in these things again......"
"Lord Wen, Lord Wen......
It was all Zhou Zhaoyan who instigated us, and he connected us before the ban came out, and he said that someone behind him was the ...... among us."
"I sue Zhou Zhaoyan for bribing the officials of the Ministry of Literature and Selection, and also accepted 1,000 taels of silver from each of us, please give us a lenient punishment......"
In the blink of an eye, everyone except Zhou Zhaoyan knelt on the ground, shouting loudly and exposing each other.
Zhou Zhaoyan's eyes turned on these people, extremely ruthless, and he gritted his teeth with hatred.
Wen Tiren's eyes were indifferent, and he forced his eyes to look at Zhou Zhaoyan.
Zhou Zhaoyan's expression changed slightly, his eyes flickered rapidly, and after a long time, he gritted his teeth and slowly knelt on the ground, and said in a hard voice: "Please forgive Lord Wen, the student is reckless." ” Wen Tiren didn't speak, turned around indifferently and got into the sedan chair.
The sedan chair was quickly lifted and walked forward.
The group of people who were in the way hurriedly got out of the way, all of them staring at Wen Tiren's sedan chair with frightened eyes, feeling uneasy and fearful.
It didn't take long for everyone who should have known the news to know.
Almost everyone was secretly shocked in their hearts, this Wen Tiren had always been inconspicuous among these servants in the six departments, but he didn't expect that the means were so powerful, it was originally a big thing that made them worry, and he was disposed of so lightly?
