In the civil official shift, Zhu Dadian, the governor of Caoyun, Zhang Guowei, and Shi Kefa, the governors of the ten prefectures, had bitter faces.

Zhang Guowei and Shi Kefa were the first to receive news from Zhu Dadian, the two hurried from Nanjing and Anqing respectively, they were shocked after entering Fengyang Mansion, the two guard acropolis passing by were full of troops, the streets were full of blood, and some captured guards were bowing their heads and scrubbing the bloodstains.

Fortunately, the Tianwu Army did not take the opportunity to loot the people's property, which calmed Zhang Guowei and Shi Kefa's hanging hearts a lot.

The three of them could not have imagined that the crown prince would actually solve the eight guards and one by such thunderous means, and even half of the officials in the thirteen counties of the five prefectures, including the garrison eunuch and the prefect of Fengyang Prefecture, were also arrested, and they are now on death row.

Seeing that the crown prince's face was not good, Zhu Dadian said cautiously: "Your Highness, how do you plan to deal with these officials?" ”

Zhu Cihong said coldly: "The officers and soldiers of the guard are in turmoil, the crime is unforgivable, and the local officials collude with the officers and soldiers to rebel, and the crime is even more unforgivable. ”

Zhu Dadian stumbled one by one, almost stood unsteadily, and all of them were executed? The captured generals of the Eight Guards and the captured state and county officials added up to more than 1,000 people, all of whom were executed?

The officials of the various provinces in Nanzhili were also full of incredulity, and the execution of officials in the imperial mausoleum was a move by the crown prince.......

At noon, under the escort of more than 5,000 Tianwu soldiers, more than 1,000 offending officials and rebels were all escorted into the imperial mausoleum on the outskirts of Zhongdu.

The Ming Emperor's Mausoleum is located in the southwest of Fengyang, the capital of the Ming Dynasty, is the mausoleum of Zhu Yuanzhang's parents, Zhu Yuanzhang's three brothers and sisters-in-law, and the graves of two nephews are buried here, it was originally designated as the Ying Mausoleum, but it only took three months to change the name to the Imperial Mausoleum, the former private tomb, has now expanded into the emperor's mausoleum.

Civil and military officials gathered at the imperial mausoleum, Zhu Cihong first led the ministers to worship Emperor Renzu and Empress Renzu, these two are the parents of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, authentic farmers, Zhu Wusi never imagined that he could be an emperor after his death.

I think at the beginning, the old Zhu family because of poverty, the local drought again, a family of eight starved to death in a month, the Yuan Dynasty to the fourth year of the fourth month of the fourth month, Zhu Yuanzhang's father starved to death, the ninth eldest brother starved to death, on the twelfth, the eldest son of the eldest brother starved to death, on the twenty-second, the mother starved to death, it is really miserable!

Just as the execution ground was ready to be prepared to use a knife to cut people, an imperial historian from Nanjing said: "Your Highness, this is the imperial mausoleum, you can't kill people here!" ”

Zhu Cihong smiled and said: "Emperor Renzu and Empress Renzu were both forced to death by corrupt officials and inferior gentry, what is wrong with this palace here to kill corrupt officials and inferior gentry?" ”

The imperial historian said: "Your Highness, as a prince, kills thousands of people at a time, what is the difference between him and Xia Wei's business? ”

Zhu Cihong stared at him and said coldly: "Do you serve in the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang?" ”

The imperial historian was stunned and said, "What does Your Highness mean by this?" ”

Zhu Cihong said: "You talk a lot! ”

The imperial historian's face turned blue and white for a while, and said: "I, the imperial historian, is already exercising the power of correcting the hundred divisions, identifying wrongs, supervising various ways, and being the division of discipline for the eyes and ears of the Son of Heaven, if His Royal Highness does not like it, although he can use the court staff on the minister, the minister as the imperial history of Nanjing, the court staff of the Beijing division is envious!" ”

After speaking, the imperial historian laughed, looking very arrogant, and the other officials of Nanzhili on the side also laughed secretly.

Zhu Cihong's face turned cold and said: "There is no court staff here in this palace, only knives!" Come on, the imperial history slandered the king, pulled down and cut down! ”

The imperial historian was a little stunned, and exclaimed: "The minister is not guilty, why did you kill me!" ”

Zhu Cihong said angrily: "This palace doesn't eat the set of the Duchayuan in Beijing, you are a fart, and you dare to talk nonsense in front of me!" ”

Several guards tore off the imperial official's brand-new official uniform on the spot, then took off his hat and dragged it aside, cutting off his head on the spot.

This fierce operation shocked the officials in Nanzhili, and the ministers of the Nanjing Sixth Department and the Metropolitan Procuratorate also had their hearts beating violently, has the crown prince gone crazy? Don't play cards according to the routine at all!

Several imperial historians of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate had just jumped out to support their colleagues, but when they saw their colleagues' heads rolling down a few meters away, one of the feet they had just taken retracted and stood aside honestly.

If you meet a benevolent monarch like Emperor Chongzhen, maybe you can still make a few accusations, grasp the rhythm and scold a few words, what is the current situation........ Let's take a look first, after all, this is not our own territory, this is the voice of all the officials of the Sixth Department of Nanjing and the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Zhu Cihong swept to the officials and said, "Who else?" ”

Who else? To give away heads? Hundreds of civil and military officials are all you look at me, I look at you, I want to see if there is any high-ranking head iron to go up again.

An incomprehensible eccentric crown prince made the officials have an inexplicable sense of awe, and the thousands of cold-faced ironclad sergeants around him made people feel a great sense of oppression, and no one dared to talk nonsense for a while.

Seeing that all the officials lowered their heads and did not speak, Zhu Cihong said: "Gu Wei! ”

Gu Wei stepped forward and said, "Humble duty!" ”

Zhu Cihong motioned to Xu Sheng to hand him the Shang Fang Sword, and said, "Take the Shang Fang Sword, you will be executed this time!" ”

Gu Wei took Shang Fang's sword, a little hesitant, his official rank was only a sixth-rank martial arts, and now he was going to kill a few third-rank commanders and fourth-rank prefects......

Gu Wei was originally just a small president, Zhu Cihong promoted him to be the head of the Military Judge Advocate General's Department, in charge of military law affairs, but many people in the army refused to accept him because of his original low military position, Zhu Cihong now wants to use this matter to let Gu Wei establish his prestige.

Zhu Cihong shouted: "This palace orders you to behead them!" ”

No matter how stupid Gu Wei was, he knew that this was the crown prince taking care of him, and at this time he was very grateful in his heart, and said loudly: "Yes!" ”

You fuck, Zhu Cihong was startled by his voice, and said angrily: "Execution!" ”

Gu Wei didn't dare to slack off, took Shang Fang's sword and came to the pile of prisoners, and then slowly pulled out the cold and shining sword, only to see that the pattern on the sword was finely chiseled, the pattern was clear, and the sword body was engraved with a soaring dragon on one side, and a phoenix with wings spread on the other, and the sword body was also decorated with the Big Dipper, which was very cool.

Gu Wei didn't have time to carefully taste the craftsmanship of the sword, he held Shang Fang's sword and commanded Gao Chi to Fengyang Wei, his hands trembled slightly, looking a little nervous.

Gu Wei was nervous, Gao Chi was even more nervous, he was gagged, although he couldn't speak, everyone could hear his rapid whining, as if he was asking for mercy, Gu Wei gritted his teeth, the sword flashed, Gao Chi stopped being nervous, and the head rolled down.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, after Gu Wei beheaded the first high-ranking official, the pressure in his heart gradually decreased, and when he cut off the heads of several commanders, and then cut off the heads of others, there was no pressure at all.

Gu Wei is like a cook at this time, chopping melons and vegetables in his kitchen, and the more he cuts, the more skilled he becomes, the more the civil and military generals who can watch the punishment around him are all heartbroken, damn it, the crown prince won't let everyone let this person cut, right?

Gu Wei slashed for half an hour, his hands were sour, and when he cut the one hundred and eighty heads, the sword that was originally sharpened like clay did not cut off the opponent's head with a single sword, and Shang Fang's sword was actually chopped up........

"This ......." Gu Wei was a little speechless, and everyone was even more speechless.

Many officials were already scared half to death, and when they saw the terrifying scene of the criminal official being cut off with a sword and his head still hanging on his body, he was even more frightened that his legs and feet were pantothenic and he couldn't speak.

Zhu Cihong couldn't bear to look at it directly, turned his head and said lightly: "The rest of the prisoners will be executed by the Ministry of Military Justice and cut down together!" ”

Immediately, a group of sergeants from the Ministry of Justice stood behind the prisoners with knives and said in unison: "Ready!" ”

The psychology of the remaining people who have been in chaos has been hairy, and they vaguely know that there is no escape today, and many people's whole bodies tremble involuntarily.

"Slash!"

Gu Wei gave an order, and the remaining more than 1,000 people, including the military generals of the guard, the civil officials of various states and counties, the landlords and inferior gentry, and the military households of the guard, accompanied by thousands of sword lights, more than 1,000 heads rolled to the ground!

Thousands of corpses fell to the ground horizontally, warm gurgling blood, and a fierce aura suddenly generated.

Hundreds of officials in Nanzhili, including military generals, were all so frightened that their faces were pale, and some timid people collapsed directly to the ground, or even fainted with fright.

Not only the officials, but this kind of execution scene also gave a great shock to the officers and soldiers of the Tianwu Army who watched the execution, and everyone was nervous in their hearts, secretly saying that this military law department was not joking, and they would have to be careful in the future.
