Chapter 558 You are equal before the law!
late at night!
"Let's go, want to survive, go to Qufu. The Kong family has millions of stones of grain in the warehouse, and many people can't finish it!"
Countless refugees were unable to receive effective rescue. Under the fanning of some people who were interested, and with herd mentality, countless people walked around tonight and began to move towards the Saints of Confucius's Mansion.
I have to say that this phenomenon is very strange. Even if a person who is interested deliberately fans the masses, how do these person who is interested learn about the information that is not spread outside the Confucius Mansion? Moreover, even various internal news are well-known, it is obviously impossible to be refugees.
However, in front of the refugee brigade, the people from other places who just want to have enough food are almost gone, so they will not care about so much.
Upon hearing this news, the Yanzhou prefect was completely panicked because the people went to Qufu. The saint family was in Qufu. If something happened to the Kong family, he would be the last official. He would even destroy the nine clans of the whole family afterwards!
There are hidden rules in the Ming Dynasty. If the Zhu family prince died within your jurisdiction, the local responsible officials will be guilty of serious crimes.
The same is true for the Kong family, because they are descendants of saints.
The Yanzhou prefect could only ask Jinan for help quickly, while arranging hundreds of tolerances from the government to rescue the Kong family.
However, hundreds of tolerances do not work.
In front of more than tens of thousands of hungry people, these hundreds of tolerable personnel couldn't stand firmly, so they pretended to behave and ran away.
The government's tolerance is equivalent to the urban management and temporary police officers in later generations. Anyway, if something big happens, it will only be the officials who die. At worst, they will run away or not blame the public. There is no need to fight to the death!
Besides, hundreds of people vs. tens of thousands of people? How is this possible!
However, the Kong family is a thousand-year-old family, with nearly a thousand thugs and dog-legged people in the family, and the village courtyard is comparable to a small city.
Generally speaking, even if there are hundreds of people under the official support, they can still defend the refugees and attack for a few days, or even half a month.
So, after experiencing the initial panic, the Kong family quickly calmed down.
The head of the Kong family ordered strict defense and waited for the Ming army in Jinan Prefecture to come and help and suppress the people. The crisis will be eliminated!
I have to say that the Kong family’s plan is good.
Very reliable too!
But they did not forget it. That is, their plan must be that the Ming army will come to help in time. And the Shandong officials are on the same side as them!
Any official who changes will stand on their Kong family.
However, sorry, Shandong Zhu Zilong now has the final say, but he is on the side of the Kong family on the surface, but in his heart he is completely hostile to the Kong family.
So, can this army come here in time? Haha, hehe, hehe, only ghosts know.
It is too easy for Zhu Zilong, a senior official in a province, to find a few reasons why he could not go to the Kong family to help in time.
For example, there are people in Jinan Prefecture preparing for a downtown market.
You can tell me, it’s true or not. As long as you are willing to oppress those unscrupulous businessmen, they will really come out to cause trouble.
This is in a large restaurant in Jinan Prefecture.
Several of the largest grain merchants and other business owners secretly held a meeting here.
The leader was Xu Jihu, the president of the Chamber of Commerce. Among his relatives, there were several cousins in the capital who worked as doctors in the Ministry of Personnel. He also became a scholar in his early years. There were also people in the court!
At this time, Xu Jihu held his favorite concubine Yufeng in his arms, and sat there with a pale face and bowed: "Dear brothers, please look at it. If this continues, we will not do our business anymore? The city is completely controlled by the Longhou of the Four Seas. We compete for profit with the people. The national law cannot tolerate it!"
For a moment, all the businessmen and bosses below began to complain.
Finally, Xu Jihu said again: "At this time, everyone has to join forces, otherwise the loss will be huge this time."
A boss said, "Why, the president has any idea? Why don't you tell me?"
Xu Jihu held his ear down and said with a mysterious expression: "Then Zhu Sihai is strong, but no matter how he is, he is a person in the court. As long as we incite the palace school and the scholars in the city to cause trouble, we will write to those in the court to know that it will be effective if we refer to his books. Just how to operate it, you can come over and wait for me to tell me carefully..."
Just when these people were conspiring here, they didn't know that a few hours later that day, Zhu Zilong got the content of their meeting.
To be honest, you may not believe that the one who betrayed these merchants was Xu Jihu's concubine Yufeng.
So, that night, Zhu Zilong also held a meeting.
The next day during the day!
As expected, the public school became lively. A group of students gathered together, and some scholars with fame came one after another, and hundreds of people gathered together.
A student in the lead stood in front of everyone and said, "There is no shortage of food in Jinan City. The Chief Secretary ordered that food should be banned from leaving the country and a curfew. It is really unreasonable! Our students are studying to petition for the people and speak for the local elders. It is time to do something."
"That's all, we can't continue to make trouble in the Central Chief, we have to persuade Lord Zhongcheng." Someone was begging him and spoke out for help.
"Let's go, go, go. It's better to be today!"
A group of scholars have come to an end, and the pride of being the world as a responsibility arises naturally, and the fearlessness of millions of people is also gone is filled with their heads.
In modern terms, reading is just stupid.
Hundreds of scholars and students left the palace and rushed to the governor's office.
Zhu Zilong, who had known the news for a long time, sat in the mansion, holding Lin Shuang'er and drinking flower wine. While drinking, his little hands were touching the beauty's butt.
When he heard my younger brother come to report, hundreds of students came indeed and a sneer came.
He said: "They are restless, so follow the plan and let the school officials and our people go over and give them a warning."
A while.
Outside the mansion, hundreds of scholars and students started shouting.
"We want to meet Zhongcheng."
"Access control, curfew, and acts that disturb the people should be abolished. It is not feasible!"
"Why don't the refugees outside let the merchants' food leave the city?"
A group of scholars looked like honest officials and famous scholars, and shouted slogans with great enthusiasm. When they suddenly heard it, it seemed that Zhu Zilong had become the world's great sinner.
Speaking of these scholars and students in the Ming Dynasty, they were all spoiled by the Ming Dynasty.
As for this, the arrogance of scholars in the middle and late Ming Dynasty can be said to be the gods and ghosts. Officials are not willing to provoke them!
Just look at the situation in Donglin Academy and you will understand!
They are like various copycat experts and professors in the 21st century later. They have no ability and are good at talking nonsense. They just want to talk about the government affairs and criticize the court officials as a fashion.
This is even more true for those who become officials, especially those who become censors, even the emperor dares to scold them.
Therefore, in their hearts, it is common for them to come and point to the governor’s nose to curse, and it is also common for them to curse.
Haven’t it been scolding and scolding these years? Isn’t there any punishment?
Yes, because the factions between civil servants fight each other, students and scholars become potential reserve forces for each gang, so officials in both sides will not do anything to these scholars and scholars.
However, Zhu Zilong does not belong to any faction in the court. Why should I give these trash scholars a good look?
Why can't you touch them?
You should know that in national laws, if students and scholars directly scold ministers in the court, if there is no evidence, it is illegal!
You have to play the power more than the law, and social public opinion is more than the law. I insist on playing the law with you, and you are equal.
Yes, you are equal, not me.
In the room, Zhu Zilong thought with a sneer!
