Counterattack!

Even most participants did not know that they had become part of this countercurrent, and a considerable number of them were just inspired by "standard indignation".

With Donglin Academy as the center, surrounded by white banners. When scholars from all over the country cried to commemorate their friends who "death suicide", they invited the tablet of their ancestor Confucius and "crying temple" to Confucius.

While indignantly "crying in the temple", someone raised his arms and shouted:

"Today, although we are dedicated to our own independence, we have made great contributions to the world, but we regard our scholars and people as straw dogs. We are dedicated to the court and abused the people. We have set the emperor's ancestors' teachings and benevolent policies without regard for..."

The cry is deafening, and all those who hear it are shouting loudly and responding.

Such a scene of "crying temple" has disappeared for many years. Why? Because of the popularity of newspapers, scholars have another channel to speak out. In the Ming Dynasty, "crying temple" was not only a long-standing tradition in the south of the Yangtze River, but also common in the north and south even in the north. The reason is that after Xuande, the Ming Dynasty's economy became increasingly developed and culture and education flourished in various places. As a gentry who is a social supervision force, if you do illegal things in the government, you will often gather in the Confucian Temple to cry to the ancestor Confucius, and use the method of "crying temple" to make the government dare not underestimate it.

"Crying Temple" is not unique to the south, and the prosperity of culture and education is not unique to the south. As for some people distorting "unique to the south", it is simply nonsense. The prosperity of culture and education in Jiangnan is true, and the scholars are huge and not false. But in the Ming Dynasty, how many auxiliary ministers were born in Nanzhili?

The rankings of the north and south are not fake, and each province has corresponding quotas. Jiangnan has never "monopolized Jinshi". Why is the Jiangnan scholar so huge? To put it bluntly, there are fewer Jinshi and difficult to take the exam. There are too many scholars, and there are too many "idle scholars" in the countryside. With more idle people, there will naturally be more things. "Crying Temple" is not so much a tradition in Jiangnan, but rather a tradition of the Ming scholars. With the Ming Dynasty, it did play a certain role in social supervision, but in the same way, the government has been kidnapped by the so-called "rippling public opinion".

In the past decade, the popularity of newspapers has not only replaced the "opening" similar to big-character posters, but also replaced the "crying temple", becoming the main means of public opinion and social supervision.

But this time, scholars gathered from all over the world, in the name of the dead, once again regained the old traditions. Rather than saying that someone raised his arms and responded in groups, it is better to say that after more than ten years of suppression, the country gentleman who had long felt the final struggle made by the crisis.

No wonder they struggle.

In the past decade, Emperor Qian Sheng’s soft knife has been cut on them with one knife.

From abolishing family slaves to attacking and offering, countless gentry and family members were greatly damaged. What did this Qian Sheng Emperor do next?

Clear the land and pay full taxes.

Over the years, Emperor Qiansheng has not messed with everyone. In fact, the "countrymen" who are officials in the court have also persuaded each other with kind words, but it did not work in the end. Emperor Qiansheng is determined to do his own thing.

Moreover, he is different from other emperors of the Ming Dynasty. He has soldiers in his hands!

And it's easy to kill!

have to!

Everyone should bear it.

How long is it to endure?

In recent years, the land has been cleared almost, and news has come out that His Majesty wants to "spread the resident into the acres". In the future, the Ming Dynasty will no longer collect "dian silver" and spread all the resident silver into the acres.

Even if it is only being tried in Huguang at the moment, it is enough to make everyone alert. Now it is being tried, but what about next?

The next step is probably to be implemented nationwide.

Once it is implemented nationwide, they will suffer!

In the past, they had tens of millions of fertile land in their family, but they didn’t need to pay “Ding Yin” at all, because they had fame and fortune. Isn’t this money paid by head-on? Now, it’s better to just spread Ding Yin into the field, which is not their life.

This is simply a slave squire!

The emperor is stupid and incompetent!

Thinking about the board I just hit a while ago and the "good days" of the past, the scholars were so angry that they could no longer control their inner dissatisfaction, and they took the opportunity to vent. They invited the tablet of Saint Kong and gathered in the name of the dead to cry in the temple.

After the leader's passionate speech, a scholar immediately shouted:

"Your Majesty's new policy of placing acres is actually a deception of the people's wealth and a deception of the people. Now the treacherous ministers in the court are in power. If the treacherous ministers do not leave, the bright future will be in a dark light!"

The scholars present said everything they said, and they all looked heartbroken and worried about the country and the people.

As for this passionate and concern for the country and the people,

Some of them are worried about the country and some are worried about the people. I am afraid that only they themselves know.

Anyway, one thing that is certain is that this passion is just a show.

For a time, this "crying temple" caused by "dead people". With the promotion of those who are interested, it immediately swept across the country, and even kept postings, demanding that the violent group abdicate and the prince assault the throne.

Of course, more words are hope that the emperor can wake up, turn back and share the world with the scholars and officials again!

The sudden storm quickly spread to the capital. No one dared to hide such a thing. Moreover, someone was looking for a post to say that His Majesty had abdicated, which was a great deal.

This is no longer a "big disrespect", but a foregone conclusion!

When he received the report, Zhu Guoqiang was still accompanying Chen Xiaowan in the harem, enjoying a rare leisure. When he received the report, he had only one thought in his mind - this matter was a bit strange.

The reason why I feel this way is because this is really strange.

Crying in the temple, revealing the post...

Although this is the most common method used by the Ming Dynasty scholars, the problem is that they have long known whether these methods are useless on their own side. Didn’t they cry in the early years?

It's useless.

In the end, I still have to kill, but I can flow?

How many years have passed?

No memory at all?

But now, they have done the same stupid thing. Do they really think they are leeks? They have cut one after another?

This human head is not a leek, it cannot be grown after being cut!

"What do you think?"

In the imperial study room, Zhu Guoqiang, who was looking at the memorial, asked without raising his head.

"I think this matter should not be investigated in depth."

Standing in front of His Majesty with his head down, Shi Lei replied directly.

"Why?"

Shi Lei's answer made Zhu Guoqiang's brow jump and he asked back.

"Those people are already shouting to abdicate me!"

Zhu Guoqiang sneered.

Not annoyed, that's a lie. This country was defeated by me. They dared to abdicate. It's simply

"Your Majesty, this matter is just a few scholars, but no one has manipulated it behind it. What is the purpose of those who manipulate it? What is the benefit of letting His Majesty abdicate? Of course, there is no benefit? It seems that they just want to test His Majesty."

"So, it's not appropriate to go into it?"

Zhu Guoqiang asked back.

"It's not that it's not appropriate, but it's not necessary, but it's necessary to show their attitude and His Majesty's attitude. Just show their attitude."

Shi Lei's words made Zhu Guoqiang silent for a long time.

Is it enough to just show your attitude?

"Your Majesty, they are not one person, not dozens of people, but a group. What they want to fight against is not a certain policy of Your Majesty. It is the relationship between Your Majesty..."

It's a class!

This class is not divided by capital. Not only the gentry and wealthy people, but also many so-called poor children.

The reason why they stand up now is not for economic benefit, but for the fight against "taming" and the resistance to the imperial power!

In another time and space, the reason why the Qing Dynasty did not face strong resistance was because... they had already tamed a large number of people with butchers' knives when they entered the pass.

And such taming was not carried out by Zhu Guoqiang.

To put it bluntly, there are not enough people killed. But can killing people solve the problem?

Of course not!

The emperor was like a trainer, and his purpose was to make the beast surrender to him, rather than killing the beast.

Although Shi Lei did not say it clearly, Zhu Guoqiang also knew what he meant.

In fact, to put it bluntly, the emperor and those people are like two chess players in the same chess game. And those who stand up are chess pieces... No one will care about their life or death.

There was not even any so-called scholarly clan among those people, but they were just the most ordinary chess pieces.

How to play this game?

In fact, this game was simple. After a moment of silence, Zhu Guoqiang said.

"I want to play chess with me? They are not qualified."
