Daming: Brother, there is no future for monks, let's rebel

Chapter 434 Let's write a blood book
Everyone in the room stared at Wang Dong with unkind expressions.

It seems that he wants Qun Ou Wang Dong.

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials gritted his teeth and said: "What a thief, it turns out that you have ulterior motives and used us to oppose His Highness the King of England."

Seeing those officials getting closer, all of them looked unfriendly.

There was no panic on Wang Dong's face at all: "Master Shang Shu's words, the lower officials can't understand."

"I have never provoked you to fight against His Royal Highness."

"Before, I was just telling everyone what the rules of His Royal Highness are like."

Hearing Wang Dong's explanation, everyone's heart was shocked.

Although Wang Dong's explanation is suspected of sophistry, it seems that this is really the case.

"Bah!" Li Huairen cursed: "Wang Dong, don't argue with me, don't think that we are all fools and don't understand your sinister intentions."

"Really, what the hell are you planning?"

"Is it important?" Wang Dong asked calmly.

"I think it's very important." Wang Dong gritted his teeth and said every word.

Wang Dong smiled and shook his head: "No, I don't think this kind of thing is important at all."

"At least for everyone now. It doesn't matter who I am, what my identity is, and what purpose I have."

"You just need to understand that you are now completely on the opposite side of His Royal Highness."

"My lord, I will never spare you, that's enough, isn't it?"

Everyone was silent, because they knew that what Wang Dong said made sense.

Now, those things really don't matter anymore.

So what if they can prove that Wang Dong has ulterior motives?

What was supposed to happen, has already happened.

Even if Wang Dong was killed, His Royal Highness would not let them go.

"It seems that Mr. Wang has a plan in mind." The Minister of Rites mocked with a yin and yang.

Others also despise.

"I really didn't realize it before. Mr. Wang is a real person who doesn't show his face. He played us all."

"Some people are best at playing tricks like this on the surface and tricks behind the scenes. I can't compare them."

"It's not that I haven't seen someone who can pretend, maybe it's been so long like Mr. Wang, it's really amazing."

"Enough." The Minister of the Ministry of Officials knocked on the table impatiently.

"Wang Dong, since you have already had an idea, you might as well tell me and let me discuss it in detail. If your method is really useful, we don't need to worry about the previous things."

"My lord asks, and the lower officials will know everything." Wang Dong said respectfully, cupping his hands, Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

"My lords, don't you still have illusions about His Royal Highness?"

This is not the first time Wang Dong has said something similar.

But this time, everyone felt that there seemed to be another meaning in his words.

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials asked directly: "Wang Dong, if you have anything to say, you may as well just say it, I will wait and listen."

Wang Dong smiled indifferently: "Everyone, don't you forget why the Kong family didn't exist back then?"

Everyone's hearts were solemn at the same time.

Afraid of Yu Zhuhan's power, no one dared to mention the matter of the Kong family casually.

But they are scholars after all, and it would be a lie to say that they have no resentment towards Zhu Han in their hearts.

Especially those traditional literati and bureaucrats, in fact, have long hated Zhu Han to the bottom of their hearts.

Li Huairen pursed his lips: "Wang Dong, stop talking about such nonsense. Who is not heartbroken about the matter of the most holy teacher?"

"We are talking about the King of England now, how to deal with the problems between us."

Although Li Huairen's ability is not very good, his vision is very vicious, pointing to the core of the problem.

Don't let Wang Dong expand the problem.

Wang Dong looked innocent: "Lord Li misunderstood, what I'm talking about now is the matter between us and His Highness the King of England."

Regarding his words, Wang Dong didn't believe it at all: "In ancient times, Zhao Gao pointed out that a deer was a horse, and Mr. Wang did not give up."

"Since we are talking about His Royal Highness, what are you talking about Mr. Kong Sheng?"

Several officials from the six ministries nodded secretly. They felt that what Li Huairen said made sense.

Just now, I was almost surrounded by Wang Dong's words.

Wang Dong looked at Li Huairen with caring eyes, and almost broke Li Huairen's defense with anger.

Just when Li Huairen couldn't bear it anymore and was about to explode.

Wang Dong calmly opened his mouth: "Master Wang, do you really not understand such a simple matter?"

"His Royal Highness, even the most sage teacher, the Kong family, was ignored, and directly dug the roots of the Kong family."

"Maybe nothing can be seen in a few years or ten years, but what about three or fifty years later?"

"Our lineage of Confucianism may be completely cut off. At that time, even if there are still people who study Confucianism, they will not be able to pass the imperial examination. After they have no future, how many people will still study Confucianism?"

The six ministers gritted their teeth one by one, as if empathizing with them.

In fact, they may not care much about this kind of thing in their hearts.

However, I am afraid that only they themselves know what they think in their hearts.

After a pause, Wang Dong continued: "My lords, what His Royal Highness did in Yanjing is no different from what he did in Qufu."

"He is digging the roots of our scholar-bureaucrats."

"Think about it, in the past, we governed the world with virtue and educated the people. But now, no matter what His Royal Highness does, he always puts profit first."

"All the important projects of the imperial court are entrusted to those profit-seeking businessmen. They even advocate the equality of the four peoples in the world."

"What he did was to completely annihilate me and other scholars."

"So everyone, for our own sake, and for the sake of thousands of scholars in the world, we must not sit idly by."

What Wang Dong said was impassioned, but those six ministers around him.

The more you listen, the more your heart sinks.

Senior officials like them are all too familiar with this set.

It is very clear that the more high-profile you are, the more beautiful your words are, and the more deceitful things you often do.

Sure enough, Wang Dong's conversation suddenly changed: "If you want to stop His Royal Highness, there is probably only one way at present."

As for the specific method, Wang Dong didn't say it directly.

However, everyone's heart is like a mirror.

There is no way to stop a person's actions if by other means.

Then there seems to be only one means left.
Death is like a lamp being extinguished, as long as one dies, everything will naturally cease to exist.

Killing a prince sounds like a terrible thing.

But for the literati and bureaucrats, it is actually not a big deal.

From ancient times to the present, no one knows how many emperors were killed by the scholar-official class.

Even in Daming.

For example, a certain emperor named Zhengde.

An horse-riding emperor who was so skilled in bowing and horse-riding that he even led an army on an expedition to the desert died because of an accidental fall into the water.

This kind of thing, no matter how you think about it, isn't it a bit too strange?

Of course, that kind of situation will either appear in troubled times, where the country is overturned and everything is in chaos.

Or, when the scholar-bureaucrats have great power.

Now that the Ming Dynasty has just been established, it is the time when the imperial power is most concentrated and stable.

The risk of doing so is a bit too great.

The room was silent for a long time, but no one dared to speak.

Only bursts of heavy breathing could be heard.

Wang Dong was not in a hurry to urge him, he just sat there as elegantly as before, taking a sip of tea from time to time.

It was as if what he was discussing with these people was not about important matters related to the death of thousands of people, but about drinking tea and chatting to pass the time.

After a long time, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials said in a hoarse voice: "Master Wang, once this kind of thing is done, there is really no way to turn back."

Wang Dong smiled slightly: "Master Shangshu, now you have no way to turn back."

"Of course, if my lords are willing to step down from their high positions now and let others bully them, then the next official didn't say anything just now."

There was another silence in the room.

"Damn it!" I didn't know who it was, and suddenly yelled.

He seemed to want to say something, but finally swallowed it back abruptly.

When everyone wanted to find out who spoke, that person was silent.

Wang Dong certainly saw the scolding person, but he didn't point it out.

The tea in Wang Dong's teapot has been changed several times in a row, and the tea is completely tasteless.

Then he said with a smile: "My lords, although I'm not in a hurry, I have to remind you of one thing."

"I'm afraid you don't have as much time as you think."

"Even if I don't tell you about His Royal Highness's methods, you should know."

"This time, those businessmen suddenly dismissed all the workers. Do you think that the prince is really naive and thinks that this is the behavior of those businessmen?"

The officials of the Sixth Ministry of Yanjing once fell into silence.

Of course they understand the truth.

These people may not be very capable, but they are clear in all the twists and turns in the officialdom.

It's just that there are some things that you know, but it's not so easy for them to make up their minds.

Li Huairen was the most irritable, and asked impatiently: "Wang Dong, let me ask you, what if we fail this time?"

……

Once again, Li Huairen received Wang Dong's caring eyes for the mentally retarded: "What? Master Li means that if the assassination of the prince fails, let me find a way to protect you from death?"

"If you feel better this way, that's fine."

As he said that, Wang Dong raised his hand: "I swear here that if the plan to assassinate the prince fails, I will definitely protect you and prevent the prince from killing all the adults and your children."

"At the same time, I can also guarantee that everyone will continue to stay in this position and continue to enjoy the glory and wealth."

"If I break my oath, I will be hacked to death."

All the officials of the Six Ministries of Yanjing looked at each other in blank dismay.

Damn, this Wang Dong is simply playing with them.

If such an important matter as assassinating the King of England fails, they will definitely have nothing good to eat.

Zhu Han hacked them into pieces, it was all for their advantage.

What is the difference between Wang Dong swearing this poisonous oath and not swearing?
However, Wang Dong's words also reminded them.

Their current plan is essentially a heinous crime of treason and injustice.

Committing such a thing, and still thinking about being able to get out of the body, it is simply impossible.

Even if they succeed, they may not have any good fruit to eat.

After all, Zhu Yuanzhang is notorious for his bloodthirsty nature.

It is difficult to guarantee that after Zhu Yuanzhang learned of Zhu Han's death, he would not kill them all.

"Wang Dong." The Minister of the Ministry of Officials said in a deep voice: "I think you already have a plan, don't hide it, just say it directly."

Wang Dong stood up calmly, and took out a roll of documents from the sleeve of his official uniform: "Master Shangshu, this matter is of great importance, and I dare not speak casually."

"It's not that the lower officials don't trust your lords, but that this matter affects all of our lives and lives, so we have to be careful."

"I have a document of surrender here. You adults can take a look. If you think there is no problem, you can press your fingerprint on it. In this way, we can all rest assured, can't we?"

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials took the document handed over by Wang Dong, and his eyes widened after just a glance.

This is a letter of surrender to Chen Youliang's sixteenth son, Chen Ji.

In the first half of the document, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Han's so-called dozens of crimes were counted.

In the second half, Chen Ji, the son of Chen You, obeyed the destiny and rebelled against Baoming.

Whether this Chen Ji is Chen Youliang's son or not, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials does not know.Whether the above content is true or false is completely unimportant.

Because this document is basically a vote.

As long as the fingerprint is pressed, it is a serious crime of treason and directly punishes the nine clans.

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials read it in silence, and then handed over the document to the Minister of the Ministry of Rites.

After reading the official book of the Ministry of Rites, he handed it over to Li Huairen, the official book of the Ministry of Punishment.

"Chen Youliang's son?" Li Huairen just glanced at him, and couldn't help but exclaimed.

Immediately, he questioned: "This is absolutely impossible, why haven't I heard of it, what kind of sixteen sons does Chen Youliang have?"

"If it weren't for someone using Chen Youliang's name to make troubles, then the above things would definitely be fake."

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials and others were speechless, this Li Huairen is definitely a stick with a brain problem.

Who can't see this kind of thing?
But none of them can point it out, you Li Huairen are showing off your "intelligence" now, do you think you are very smart?
"Li Huairen." The Minister of the Ministry of Officials said coldly: "If you finish reading it, leave it to someone else."

Li Huairen said a little unconvinced: "But my lord, there is definitely something wrong with this document."

"Shut up! Give this thing to someone else." The Minister of the Ministry of Officials was furious, his beard and hair all stretched out.

After all, having been the Minister of the Ministry of Officials for so many years, he naturally has an aura of coercion over all officials.

Li Huairen shuddered in fright, and quickly handed over the document to others.

It wasn't until all the officials had read it that the Minister of the Ministry of Officials said indifferently: "Have you read it all? If there is no problem, just press your fingerprint."

A servant of the official department holding the document asked hesitantly, "Where is the ink pad?"

Wang Dong laughed: "My lord, don't you think the blood book is more sincere?"
