"I think that they are not worthy of wearing this official uniform!”
Yan Song's words were shocking.
All the ministers looked at Yan Song angrily. This was digging their roots. This was too detestable!
However, Jiajing's gaze was like a knife scraping on their bodies. Was Yan Song wrong? This group of officials ate the benefits of others, but they did things that were not loyal to the emperor and helped North Korea. Yan Song's words from his ancestor Emperor Yongle had also made Jiajing's blood boil. He really wanted to chase these guys out of the court.
However, when Jiajing thought about it, if he really did this, wouldn't Yan Song have the final say? This was not good for his imperial mind and playing the balance between the officials. Moreover, Jiajing could not help but feel a headache when he thought of the possible consequences of the deterioration of relations with North Korea.
"It's too troublesome. It's better to pretend that nothing happened and let me continue cultivating the Heavenly Dao.”
Jiajing was a person who was afraid of trouble, so in the end, he could only give up and find the most balanced method.
Yan Song saw Jiajing's mental state from his mind reading and almost vomited blood. You are the emperor of the Celestial Dynasty, right? I used Emperor Yongle to provoke you, and you are still like this? At this moment, Yan Song deeply realized what kind of impact an unqualified emperor would have on the entire country.
A cynic who was full of benevolence, righteousness, and morality but was pedantic, and an emperor who did not do anything at all, it would be strange if the Ming Dynasty could not be destroyed.
Yan Song estimated that at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di's coffins were about to collapse.
This court session ended just like that.
The overall result was that Yan Song's side was very dissatisfied, while the Qi and Chu factions heaved a sigh of relief. The North Korea envoy saw the Great Ming's fierce appearance and weak heart. Yang Tinghe secretly felt that it was a pity that it did not trigger a conflict between the Qi and Chu factions and Yan Song.
However, after Yan Song returned, he instructed Yan Nian to spread the news of the court meeting. Since he couldn't do anything to these people in court, he would make them suffer on the fishing boat.
Yan Nian heard what those people said at the court meeting and clicked his tongue."I didn't expect these officials to be even more black-hearted than us…"
In less than an hour after Yan Nian left, the news of the court meeting spread throughout the capital, causing a heated discussion.
Many commoners were furious after hearing this and immediately cursed.
"I didn't expect that in the end, it was actually that Yan Song who supported us commoners.”
"Bullsh * t Imperial Censor, you said that the North Korea vassal state has always had a close relationship with our Great Ming Empire, but Lord Yan's actions hurt the heart of the North Korea vassal state. Can't you see that our citizens are being bullied?”
The commoners used to call him the traitor Yan Song, but now they called him Yan Song or Lord Yan. It could be seen that Yan Song's image in everyone's hearts had changed because of this matter.
"To think that those officials who always say that they are loyal to the monarch, patriotic, and the people can say such words. If I were there, I would probably punch them to death!”
"You can't say that. If North Korea really sends troops, who will be responsible for this?”
Some people objected, but they were quickly scolded like dogs.
"Bullsh * t, a small vassal state like North Korea is nothing to be afraid of. Then wouldn't the other Andahan and Japanese pirates destroy the country? My Ming Dynasty has vast territory, how can we be afraid of this small vassal state?”
" You and I are both commoners. If it's your turn next time and I have to sacrifice you, I'm sure you'll be happy to give up your life to appease this vassal state of North Korea. Tsk tsk, what a backbone…"
"Yeah, these officials are really shameless."
"The most shameless person is that Imperial Chancellor Zhang Wenhao. He even said that he would throw this mother and daughter into prison to appease the anger of North Korea's vassal state. To think that he could say such a thing and even teach and educate people.”
The commoners supported Yan Song. They didn't beat around the bush. They felt that Yan Song was speaking up for them, so they supported Yan Song and kept scolding those officials.
On the other hand, the scholars were divided into two camps. One side supported Yan Song, and the other side supported the North Korea vassal state. The directorates were also in an uproar. Li Qiying was quickly sought after. They thought that he had the backbone and courage to impeach the treacherous official Yan Song. Some people supported Li Qiying's bravery. As for North Korea, they didn't care. They supported everyone who opposed Yan Song. They didn't talk about the facts, but only the people.
There was also a portion of the directorates who supported Yan Song. They felt that Yan Song's strong attitude was the attitude of a big country. Harmony would only make the vassal states look down on Great Ming.
In short, the two sides were quarreling, and they even rolled up their sleeves to tear each other apart. The atmosphere was very tense.
However, Chancellor Zhang Wenhao quickly took action and severely punished those students who opposed him and supported Yan Song. However, he was not happy for long.
When he returned home one day, he found rotten eggs, rotten wild vegetables, and even feces everywhere. The stench was overwhelming, and there were countless flies. It was extremely disgusting.
"What's going on?"
Zhang Wenhao called the butler over and cursed.
The butler looked like he was about to cry." Master, I don't know what happened. Many commoners ran over this afternoon and threw a bunch of them in. I wanted to chase them out but I couldn't catch them."”
Not long after, the servant who went to buy vegetables returned with a bitter face."Old Master, those peddlers said that they won't sell vegetables to me. They said that you…"
The servant hesitated.
"What did you say?" Zhang Wenhao asked angrily.
" They said that since you think they are lowly peasants, you shouldn't eat the vegetables of the lowly peasants if you have the ability," the servant said weakly." Otherwise, your intestines will be pierced and your stomach will rot…"
" Damn it!" Zhang Wenhao was furious." You despicable commoner! How dare you insult me like this…"
Before he could finish speaking, he felt his eyes go black and his ears ring. He could not stand up and staggered to the ground.
"Master ~ Master ~~"
Other officials who were treated the same way as Zhang Wenhao and Yan Song at the court meeting found rotten eggs, rotten vegetables, feces, and so on when they returned home. Sometimes, they were even thrown firecrackers at night, scaring the whole family.
Those servants were also uncomfortable. As soon as they stepped out, they were looked at by countless scrutinizing and disgusted gazes. There was no need to mention the resentment in their hearts. They were also commoners. How could they not hate the attitude of their master towards the commoners?
