Chapter 419 Thunder Strike! Ever since the emperor issued an edict a few days ago, allowing Ji Song, the Marquis of Haoji, to resign from his position as Shaoqing of Sinong Temple, there has been an uproar in the court! Many courtiers expressed their grievances on Ji Song's behalf, believing that the emperor treated his meritorious officials badly, which was very unfair! But the big bosses at the front of the court remained silent, which left many people confused. What did the emperor mean? But it didn't take long for them to understand.
Sinong Temple! The problem arose at Sinong Temple. The emperor wanted to split up Sinong Temple!
When the news spread, many people were confused! What is the emperor doing?Doesn’t this mean you don’t have any face at all?
At this time, Sinong Temple had nearly [-] officials officially appointed by the imperial court. When these people heard the news, they immediately drove Ma Zhou out of Sinong Temple! Ma Zhou was sent by the emperor. They naturally believed that Ma Zhou was an internal agent and was cooperating with the emperor! After Ma Zhou was kicked out, he didn't care and went home directly! Li Shimin was furious when he heard the news and sent people to surround Sinong Temple.
At this time, everyone panicked and wanted to find someone for help, but found that no one could help them!
Some people thought of Ji Song, the man who single-handedly founded Sinong Temple.
But I found that I had no friendship with them at all.
Looking around again, I was suddenly shocked! Only then did I realize that as long as they were officials related to or close to Hao Jiehou, they had been slowly transferred out half a year ago.
The rest now are all brought in by dragging in favors. Ji Song has never been seen in person in Sinong Temple, let alone friendship!
It turns out...were they going to be abandoned half a year ago?
Most of these people are the best from various aristocratic families, otherwise they would not pass Ji Song's assessment!
When the aristocratic families heard the news, they almost fainted!
What is the purpose of openly expelling officials who have accepted the emperor's orders personally?Rebellion? Now they were panicking. These people were all outstanding young people in the family. If they betrayed this reputation, their future would be completely ruined!
Although I know there is a problem here, otherwise with the wisdom of these people, it is impossible to do such a reckless thing! The emperor's splitting up Sinong Temple did greatly harm their own interests!
Just in Guanzhong, powerful families have made huge profits from land reclamation!
If it were completely spread across the country, their family would definitely be able to grow several times in size! At this time, it is very precious to have family members serving as officials in Sinong Temple! But since last year, the emperor has temporarily stopped the pace of expansion, and has even massively transferred away the trusted officials of Haoji Hou Jisong!
He even went so far as to send Ma Zhou, a poor man from a poor family, to take charge of Sinong Temple, completely bypassing Ji Song!
At this time, although they were a little anxious, they were still within the acceptable range.
Anyway, except for a few conspicuous supervisors at the top, especially after Chang Sun Chong and others were transferred, the remaining officials are basically people from aristocratic families! Previously, the founder, Ji Song, was suppressing the situation, and there were also the directors of the Jiu Division, the boss, and Sicheng, who were in charge. No matter how talented the people below were, they would not be able to make trouble! But things are different now. Most of the Nine Divisions have been occupied, and now the chief minister is vacant. The Si Cheng is a grassroots who only relies on the emperor's appreciation.
It can be said that at this time, Sinong Temple has been occupied by aristocratic families, and no one really cares about Ma Zhou! However, if he doesn’t care, he doesn’t care. After all, he is still the emperor’s man. It depends on the owner to beat the dog, let alone the emperor?
You have now driven away the people sent by the emperor to manage you. What does this mean? You want to be autonomous? Crazy! Everyone knows that this matter is serious. If the emperor really gets into it, none of them will be able to escape, and their family members will probably be implicated as well!
Just one sentence: There is a lack of tutoring, a lack of moral character, and there is no father. You can catch them all in one fell swoop! Just when everyone was in a stalemate, the aristocratic families headed by the Zheng family, the Pei family, the Wang family, and the Lu family collectively asked to see the emperor! Everyone knows that this is a sign that they have admitted defeat!
If it were an ordinary incident, they could also mobilize their disciples and old officials to put pressure on the emperor!
But it won't work this time. They are in the wrong. If not, the whole family will be destroyed! At this time, no one dared to joke with their own lives, they all stayed away!Since the hard one is not enough, then use the soft one.
This time, Emperor, you win, we admit defeat, just give us a price for whatever you want! Such a thing is not something unspeakable for aristocratic families!
During the Wuhu chaos in China, these aristocratic families really lost their moral integrity! If you can win, you will fight, if you can't, you will beg for mercy, and if you offer your daughter for marriage, you can do whatever it takes!
For them, the current failure is only temporary. As long as the family's heritage is maintained, they can make a comeback in a few years!
It's not like they never thought about being tough with the emperor and directly fighting with real guns and knives! But looking around the Tang Dynasty, I discovered that as long as they were near their home, there would definitely be an army of varying numbers stationed nearby!
You don't need to think about it to know that as long as they make the slightest move, these troops will attack their base camp!
This has been planned for a long time! Only then did everyone realize that they had never really known the emperor in front of them! If you don't move, it will be fine. If you move, it will crush their nerves with a thunderous force!
no solution anymore!
With a sigh, he hurriedly sent the person in charge to ask for an audience with the emperor!
Li Shimin did not neglect them. He wanted to kill them all, otherwise the entire Tang Dynasty would be in chaos!
You know, although he has promoted many poor people in recent years, people from aristocratic families still occupy sixty-seven out of ten positions in the court! Since the aristocratic family has surrendered, it only needs to achieve its own goal, and there is no need to fight to the death. This will definitely cause the country that has finally stabilized to become turbulent again. This is not what he wants to see! After everyone entered the Tai Chi Hall, the door was completely closed and would not be opened until the outcome of the discussion was reached.
Ji Song looked at the palace at home and was stunned! He knew that a new era was coming! The emperor has been preparing for so long, isn't it just for this day? All the patience is for the sake of the current aristocratic family!
Why you turn a blind eye to Sinong Temple, and why you can't do anything to them? These are just ways to show the enemy's weakness!
The Emperor of Ma Ma, who has been fighting for half his life, really thinks he is so gentle on the surface?
Look now, the army has arrived at your door without anyone noticing. Do you dare to try?
This time I have taken advantage of the Sinong Temple officials and I will tell you directly: Can you tell me something? What words to give?
Of course it is what the emperor wants to hear!
At this time, as long as you are not stupid, you know how to choose.
The family thought it was okay to admit defeat once, but Ji Song knew that they really lost this time!
When the emperor's goal was achieved, they completely lost the ability to compete with the emperor!
