[End of the God Station] Remind book friends to keep in mind: Website URL: www.xinwanben.com Remember in a second, never lose it!
Wu Kuan had no way out.
Insulted by Ouyang Zhi, insulted by His Majesty.
If at this time, I knelt down and begged for mercy, then... I would be completely finished.
He was determined to put all his eggs in one basket and simply impeach the culprit...Fang Jifan!
Emperor Hongzhi looked at him coldly.
But Wu Kuan cheered up at this moment. Although the pain was severe, he gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, Fang Jifan must have bewitched Your Majesty. Fang Jifan has a bad reputation and has amassed countless fortunes. Your Majesty, he is behind his back. Do you know how many bad things you have done? The so-called New Deal is just a lie, a tool for him to make money...Your Majesty is bewitched by him, and how long will he be obsessed with it? Could it be that your Majesty has failed the expectations of the world for Fang Jifan? Why doesn't Your Majesty get close to a sage and stay away from such a villain? Why doesn't Your Majesty ask someone to ask Fang Jifan and the others... How many sinful things have they done, Your Majesty... …The old minister is humiliated today, and he has nothing to say. A minister is a minister, serving the king, and speaking out righteously. It is only right, so I ask your Majesty to be aware of the truth, understand loyalty and traitors, and return the people of the world to a clear day!"
He spoke with eloquence, and when he was emotional, he cried out, as if he was afraid that Emperor Hongzhi would not be able to make up his mind. He continued: "Could it be that... a Fang Jifan is more important than the country, the country, the expectations of the ancestors, and the people of the world? Your Majesty..."
He kowtowed hysterically.
Wang Ao and the others felt their hearts skip a beat.
have to say.
This Wu Kuan is simply trying to kill the net.
This is dead advice.
Either Fang Jifan died, or Wu Kuan died.
Everyone was in a state of disarray.
On the one hand, they are also scholars themselves, and they agree with Wu Kuan psychologically.
Although Wu Kuan was extreme, he agreed with some of his words.
What's more, Wu Kuan is a gentleman, and if he speaks uprightly, even if what he says is wrong, everyone still admires him.
Scholars advocate strength of character, and what they pay attention to is perseverance like bamboo.
But...Wu Kuan, you are not a thing, you just scold and scold at ordinary times, what do you have to do to kill Fang Jifan?
Everyone...but they all bought houses with mortgages on their backs, and so far...waiting for their houses to appreciate in value.
Think about it, when the market fluctuated, how many people were almost forced to jump off the building.
Now if Fang Jifan is convicted, so many of his disciples and grandchildren will definitely be implicated. With such a huge fluctuation, who would dare to buy a house, this house is afraid that it will fall to the bottom, flying straight down three thousand feet.
You, Wu Kuan, didn't have a meal, and you ruined everyone's pot. You are not wicked.
In the workshop, the air suddenly became tense.
Fang Jifan also realized the seriousness of the problem, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, my son...has no selfishness. In and outside the court, no one knows that my son is honest, honest, and law-abiding. He has nothing but sincerity and loyalty to me, the sun and the moon of Ming Dynasty. Also, please Your Majesty... be aware!"
"I..." Emperor Hongzhi sneered.
He knew that if he beat Wu Kuan with the inkstone today, he would be criticized by countless scholars.
He also knows that this may become a big stain in his career as an emperor in the history of Qianqiu.
He even knew that... the decision made today... would have far-reaching consequences.
But he took a deep breath: "I have already seen clearly. Wu Kuan!"
The word Wu Kuan is very blunt.
Wu Kuan trembled: "The minister...is here!"
Emperor Hongzhi stared at him: "You said that there is a treacherous minister by my side, and this treacherous minister is Fang Jifan. I was bewitched by Fang Jifan, right?"
"Yes!" Wu Kuan did not hesitate, he planned to walk all the way to Hei.
Emperor Hongzhi smiled even colder: "Then I'll tell you, who bewitched me!"
"..."
Emperor Hongzhi sternly said, "Chang Cheng!"
Chang Cheng's face turned pale with fright.
He hardly dared to look at Emperor Hongzhi. This once amiable Mr. Zhu has become a great emperor today. Countless people are prostrate at his feet, and his speech and behavior have changed. If the naked body is swept out of the center, the spirit of who is it to me in every gesture, after a cry of Chang Cheng, completely defeats Chang Cheng's psychological defense line, Chang Cheng slammed, and fell to his knees: "The grass people are here, The grasslands are alive, the grasslands will die, the grasslands have eyes but do not see Mount Tai, the emperor forgives their sins, the emperor forgives their sins."
"What are you doing kneeling!" Emperor Hongzhi sternly said, "Stand up! Stand up straight for me, keep your chest up!"
Chang Cheng peed in fright, and a fishy smell emanated from him.
He was trembling, and tried to stand up carefully, but felt his body was limp. With great difficulty, he barely stood up straight with the help of the milling machine, but he lowered his head, wishing he could find a crack in the ground and burrow into it.
Emperor Hongzhi pointed at Chang Cheng: "This person... is the treacherous minister you Wu Kuan said, and I was bewitched by him!"
Wu Kuan raised his head and looked at Chang Cheng. Surprise flashed across Wu Kuan's eyes for this ordinary person.
The rest of the people all looked at this humble man, he... is a traitor! "
Emperor Hongzhi flicked his sleeves: "Chang Cheng."
"In the."
"I'm here to ask you, where are you from?"
"Tong... Tongzhou
……”
"What career did you hold before?"
Chang Cheng was about to cry, and stammered, "Caomin is on the pier, doing his legs!"
"Why are you here!" Emperor Hongzhi pressed on step by step.
Chang Cheng looked at everyone anxiously, and said expectantly, "Can't you survive?"
"Can't you live anymore?" Emperor Hongzhi sneered: "No, but my Minister of the Ministry of Officials told me that you are living a good life and enjoying peace. Everyone has received the favor of the Tongzhou New Deal. Like a child, think about what the people think, think about what the people think, and I come to ask you why you can’t survive in this world of Yao and Shun like Tongzhou!”
hum...
All the officials were suddenly dumbfounded.
Wu Kuan looked at Chang Cheng nervously.
Yang Yiqing looked suspicious, he felt something was wrong.
Chang Cheng trembled.
Yes, why is Tongzhou so peaceful, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, why can't you survive?
Chang Cheng shuddered.
He has little knowledge.
All his life, he lived like an ant.
Now, he looked at the ashen-faced Mr. Zhu, no, it was the Son of Heaven.
Suddenly... an inexplicable emotion took over Chang Cheng's emotions.
"Nonsense!" Chang Cheng became angry, his eyes were already red, and he no longer had any fear, but what he had was anger beyond his control, like an ant looking at the sky, accusing the injustice of heaven.
He knew that this was not a good choice, because...it might kill him, and anyone standing here could strangle himself to death with just a light pinch of his hand.
But it often becomes inexplicable anger, anger, occupying his mind, filling his heart, even if it's just an ant, shouldn't he be angry, even if this anger is meaningless!
"Nonsense!" Chang Cheng burst into tears: "What is living and working in peace and contentment, what is loving the people like a son, what is being so gentle, if I love the people like this, I...why did I leave my hometown. Since the Tongzhou New Deal, originally, my family, young and old, can still eat One meal, one hungry meal, and barely alive, but these two good officials came to Tongzhou to start his New Deal, so many people, there is no way out."
Chang Cheng cried, crying loudly, wiping his tears: "My mother is sixty years old, the price of rice is rising day by day, she is sick, and can't afford medicine, so she clutches the quilt and endures it, yes, she has to endure it." In the past, she was shivering, her whole body was scorching hot, she had no food to eat, no porridge to drink, she asked everywhere for borrowing money, and what she got was nothing more than a piece of so-called silver coupons from the government, and what kind of favor was said, what kind of favor? ? This silver coupon cannot be exchanged for silver by ordinary people. Only those who are domineering can go to the government to exchange it. They exchange a hundred taels of silver coupons for hundreds of taels of real gold and silver. From our hands, this One hundred taels of silver coupons can be exchanged for just a few buckets of rice... The gongs and drums are noisy outside, talking about a peaceful and prosperous world, but my mother is holding the tattered cotton, just standing upright, gritting her teeth... That's it... ...that's it..."
Chang Cheng beat his chest: "I feel bad. When my father was dying, he asked me to guard this house, serve my mother, give birth to a child as soon as possible, and carry on the family line. But...if I hadn't been pushed to the point of desperation, how could I have given up on them?" , leaving home and coming to Baoding Mansion, I...I am sorry for my dead father, I am sorry for my mother, I...I...I am worthless, but..."
He opened his tearful eyes, and his face seemed to be covered with death.
It's not you, Wu Kuan, who can speak up for justice.
Chang Cheng is such an honest and responsible person, if he is in a hurry, why should he be afraid of life and death? Who can be afraid of death?
He sneered at Wu Kuan, with deep-seated hatred in his eyes: "How can you, turn black and white like this, how can you paint this hell on earth into a fairyland on earth, you are also human, you have flesh and blood, heart and lungs, but Why... say such shameless words. Where were you when my mother was seriously ill, and where were you when my wife was starving and freezing? What is this living and working in peace? Where is your heart?
"..."
Wu Kuan was dumbfounded.
He looked at Chang Cheng in fear.
He saw that such an honest person who was trembling and didn't even dare to lift his head, suddenly...became terrifying and terrifying in front of him.
Wu Kuan suddenly felt a sense of fear for no reason, he...would be afraid of such a grassroots person!
Chang Cheng took a step forward with tears in his eyes: "You are not hungry, you are seriously ill, you are served by a doctor, you have read books and understand things, but why, why can you say such things, you want to force us to death, you want Starve us to death, but on the contrary, do you want us to celebrate the peace of the world? I just want to live, I just want to live, I just want to be like in Baoding Mansion, in this workshop, able to eat fish and meat, and eat a meal , I can feed the young and old, I have always been successful, I have never been afraid of suffering or tears, today, I am not even afraid of death. But I am afraid of hunger, I am afraid of hunger, but you regard my despair as a merit , you... beast... bah!"
