Ming Dynasty: I, Emperor Chongzhen, swear not to go to Meishan

Qian Qianyi and other Donglin Party officials wanted to stand up, but they didn't have the courage. They were not fools. The emperor's words just now contained strong murderous intent. Anyone who dared to stand up would not just be dismissed from his post like Gao Chengzhong. They are just common people, and they will definitely lose their heads.

"Since there is no objection, the matter will be considered passed." Zhu Youjian waved his hand domineeringly and settled the matter with one word.

To be honest, he really wished that someone would jump out and object, so he took advantage of the topic and chopped off the guy's head to scare the monkeys. It was not just killing one chicken, killing several more would have a better effect.

It's a pity that they are all thousand-year-old foxes who have become spirits through cultivation. They are so good that he has no chance to take action.

Qian Qianyi and other Donglin Party bosses exchanged glances, and all shut their mouths tightly. There may be a chance to redeem this matter, but if they jump out to oppose it at this time, the outcome will definitely be very bad. For now, please bear with it. , and we’ll discuss it after we get back.

After the dispersion of the dynasty, Qian Qianyi and other Donglin Party officials gathered in Qian's Mansion to discuss countermeasures. The emperor dared to touch their big cake. My uncle could bear it, but they couldn't bear it. They pushed them to the limit, so they asked for someone to be obedient. emperor.

Because there were so many party members who came to discuss the matter, the study room could not be crowded, so they all sat in the hall, surrounded by servants and guards. Anyone who dared to come close to eavesdrop would be killed without mercy.

"This dog emperor."

"Damn you."

"The faint king who kills a thousand swords."

Everyone was filled with righteous indignation, spitting sweet fragrance, and greeted Zhu Youjian's eighteen generations of ancestors a hundred times.

"Everyone, calm down. Now is not the time to curse. Let's all work together to find a way to make the emperor give up the idea of ​​taxing businessmen." Qian Qianyi clapped his hands to calm everyone down and sit down to discuss important matters.

"Let the news out first to cause panic among businessmen."

"This alone is not enough. We must put pressure on the Hunjun to make those businessmen go on strike, causing market panic."

"We need to take a multi-pronged approach. We need to mobilize public opinion and let the people rise up to attack and denounce the foolish king."

"The Foolish King is becoming more and more foolish. The Ming Dynasty is in danger if he is left in charge."

"If it doesn't work, let's all protest together."

Not to mention, they are all university masters with Jinshi or above and high IQs. With just a word from you and me, we can quickly come up with a way to deal with the Hunjun.

Remonstrance is the last resort. Changing the emperor is tantamount to rebellion and the risk is too great. Don't act rashly until you are desperate. However, if you really get to that point, you can only do it as a last resort.

Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong rebelled and killed several Tibetan kings, but the Zhu family had so many descendants that it was easy to pull anyone out as a puppet emperor. The key was how to dethrone the emperor from the throne?

Soon, with the publicity and encouragement of thoughtful people, the news that Emperor Chongzhen wanted to tax merchants and increase taxes on the people quickly spread, spreading like the wind to all parts of the country.

At this time, Zhu Youjian was discussing the relevant details of taxation with Song Xiance, Wu Buwei, Ruan Dacheng and other royalist ministers in the Yangxin Hall.

"Your Majesty, it's not good." Tian Boguangshen, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, came in to report in a panic.

After nearly two years of hard work, although the current Jin Yiwei is not as glorious as the Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, its strength has surpassed the period when Luo Yangxing was in charge of Jin Yiwei. In addition, Zhu Youjian canceled some of Jin Yiwei's powers, making Jin Yiwei more centralized and professional. Perform your duties better.

Coupled with Shen Baichuan's underground power that unified the capital, Zhu Youjie knew every move in the entire capital.

As soon as the people from the Donglin Party spread the news, Jin Yiwei knew immediately. Tian Boguang knew that this matter was not only big but also very troublesome, so he ran into the palace to report it immediately.

"Your Majesty, what should I do?"

The expressions of Ruan Dacheng and all the royalist ministers changed, and they all looked at Zhu Youjian nervously.

"It seems that some people feel that they are impatient with their lives, haha." Zhu Youjian said with a smile, his face looking calm and calm.

It is said that one person can make three people a tiger, which is enough to show the power of rumors, but for him, it is too easy to crack the rumors.

"Check for me, who spread the rumors?" Zhu Youjian said murderously.
