"What, are you going to let me out?"

The current Zheng Ipu, the opposite of what he looked when he was arrested in the house, his hair was scattered, and although he did not suffer any torture, he obviously suffered a great blow to his heart and became a little crazy.

When he heard this, the servant's heart did not come to a place.

Good guy, you are still a famous and well-known member of the third rank of the dynasty, but you are also a corrupt and bribe-taking, taking advantage of your position to let your protégé's children be admitted to high school.

Perhaps, the kid in my third uncle's family didn't win this time, because these corrupt officials were seeking personal gain!

For this kind of person, His Majesty is really right, if you want him to say, corrupt officials and corrupt officials should be killed cleanly!

Thinking like this, he opened the door and pulled Zheng Ipu out, and sneered: "Yes, Lord Shilang, I'm going to let you out, I'm going to let you out and cut off your head." ”

"Beheaded? Why cut me, I sit upright! ”

"I want to meet Your Majesty!" Zheng Ipu was shocked and struggled frantically, and two messengers outside the door came in to restrain him, and someone kicked him hard, saying:

"We still want to run, if we let you run out, how can we still live?"

There were also guards on the side of the criminal department who saw him being detained, and couldn't help but sneer: "Your Majesty is holding a court meeting, how can I have the time to see you!" ”

"Hahaha!"

Subsequently, Zheng Ipu was tied up by Wuhua and taken to the execution ground, that is, the big platform of Chess and Card Street that had undergone bloody beheadings several times.

Since the forty-seventh year of Wanli, including Tong Yangzhen, the general of Jianguo who was captured by Mao Wenlong, many civilian and military generals who committed crimes have been executed here.

The big officials fell from power, and the powerful people in the past became spurned by thousands of people in a blink of an eye, worthless, this is the most popular show for the people.

The corrupt officials who fell at this juncture even spurned the poor scholars.

"Kill him!"

"Beheaded!"

"Dog corrupt official, you can't die well, after death in the underworld, Lord Yama can't spare you!"

This is the surging shouting and scolding of the common people.

"The dynasty has been raising soldiers for 200 years, but there are such corrupt officials!"

"This is the misfortune of the world, the catastrophe we are waiting for! Fortunately, His Majesty is now a saint, and he is arbitrary, eradicating corrupt ministers, returning the world to a clean world, and waiting for justice for me! ”

"It's just that I don't know if I will have to wait for another three years after eradicating corrupt officials, and how many more three years can I wait for in my life......"

This is the muttering of the fallen scholars.

Since the incident itself has been spread far and wide among the people, the "Beijing Daily" does not even need to publicize it, and the people have almost already decided that the arrested Zheng Ipu must be a corrupt official.

In such an atmosphere, even the escorted officers of the Criminal Department felt thrilled, if it weren't for their own people, I was afraid that this former servant of the Ministry would be torn to pieces in a blink of an eye!

As the sound of the prisoner car stopping on the stone road stopped abruptly, Zheng Wupu's heart was cold, he knew that the end of his life, Chess Street, had arrived.

In the past, Zheng Ipu had ridden his horse toes proudly through the most prosperous road in the capital many times, but he never thought that this place would become his final destination.

Zheng I Pu was pressed to the execution ground, he took advantage of the executioner's drinking to raise his head and look around, and quickly wilted.

Around here, whether it is the ignorant people or those scholars and students who like to talk loudly, they are all scolding him and praising the sages of the current emperor.

He didn't understand that he had just done what many people had done, why he was the one who had been infamous through the ages, and some of the people behind him were still hiding in the shadows and counting money.

Anyway, his time has come.

"Slash ——!"

With a loud roar from the warden, the executioner's long-brewing broadsword was swung down in an instant, and blood flew out in a moment, and a head rolled to the ground with the roaring cheers around it.

......

Forbidden City, Maoqin Palace.

A three-legged tripod-style incense burner is burning sandalwood, surrounded by cigarette smoke, although the main hall is not as grand and solemn as the three major halls, but the atmosphere is also solemn.

Under His Majesty Dan, the civil and military ministers of the Apocalypse Dynasty are respectfully serving.

At the front are the well-known cabinet chief assistant and Donglin leader Han Yi, followed by the cabinet deputy assistant and Dongge University scholar Wei Guangwei, as well as Cui Chengxiu, Zhang Weixian and others in the military machine room.

Behind them, there were important ministers of the humerus in the court, Liu Zongzhou, the imperial history of the left capital, Gu Dazhang, the right attendant of the criminal department, and Feng Quan, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry.

The next batch is the imperial history Yuan Huazhong, the official Chen Yuting and other Jiuqing Kedao, and the last one is the deputy officials of the yamen of the imperial court, such as Du Lide and others in the military department.

In addition to these people, there are now two new forces in the imperial court.

These officials are generally young, but they are of great use, and most of them have made contributions to the earthquake in the three provinces, and only entered the center of the imperial court this year.

First, it was the New Imperialist Party headed by Yang Sichang, Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Chuanting, Zhu Xieyuan, and others.

Almost all of these officials were able to become officials or be promoted because of the new policies of the imperial court, and they all took it as their responsibility to help the current emperor do things, and they were generally strong, and they were not afraid of this or that, and were willing to take on big things.

Because of their youth, these newcomers are more energetic, and there is no shortage of all-round talents in civil and military affairs.

The second is the Zhejiang Party headed by Wen Tiren.

After the dispute over the national capital, the Zhejiang Party gradually disappeared, and the Donglin Party monopolized the scholars as officials, resulting in the new officials becoming Donglin every year.

It wasn't until Wen Tiren was born that this monopoly was broken. At present, the Zhejiang Party is making a comeback with the covert support of Zhu Youxiao.

In the main hall, in addition to the civil and military officials, the pro-army of the imperial Yongwei battalion, the internal supervisor on duty, and many Han generals, all stood solemnly around His Majesty.

Facing the hundreds of officials prostrate on the ground in front of them, the mentality of these people is different from them after all.

“… You've all heard about it, I ordered the raid of the hometown of Zheng Ipu, the right servant of the ministry, and I remember that someone persuaded me that he was loyal. ”

Zhu Youxiao's eyes were like sharp blades, and he slowly swept over the ministers under His Majesty Dan, and sneered: "Now, do anyone still say that he is loyal?" Does anyone else say that he is a clear stream? ”

"The word Qingliu has ruined you!"

The hall was silent, and none of the officials dared to say a word, Zhu Youxiao was not without surprise, and threw a piece of music to the bottom of the stairs and among the officials, and said:

"That's more than four million taels of silver!"

"Do you know that the battle of Liaodong that began in September last year lasted for a year, and how many taels of silver were spent on the imperial court? Counting the silver reward to appease Taining and Duoyan, there are more than four million taels in total! ”

"Do you know how much the imperial court pays in a year? It's only more than two million taels! ”

"This is still after Wang Zai Jinqing investigated Jifu and increased tariffs!"

Zhu Youxiao has not said a word or expressed his attitude towards the rumors for two months, and everything is as usual.

But in the past two days, he suddenly ordered the Jinyi guard to raid the mansion of a fourth-grade master, and although everyone had been prepared, there was no way to deal with it.

This time he pretended to be a pig and ate a tiger, and he caught the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty off guard.

Having said that, Zhu Youxiao's voice has become closer and closer to the core issue of this court meeting, accusing corrupt officials, why do you want to say it to people who are "not" corrupt officials?

Some of the courtiers who understood were already trying to restrain the tremors in their bodies.
