On the fourth day of the fifth month, people waited for a whole day, not for the long-awaited prison country.

The prison country did not come to the capital immediately, and it was not until the next day that the officials who stayed in the capital finally waited for the news that the prison country would enter the city tomorrow.

On the sixth day of the first lunar month, the sky will be bright, the Chaoyang Gate will be opened, and the officials and gentlemen of the whole city will rush out of the city one after another, one by one, neatly dressed, and put incense cases on the side of the road five miles away. The common people could not stand with the gentry, but were divided into groups and waited by the roadside in the wilderness. Although the big guys get up early, many people are in a really good mood.

After all, the Ming Dynasty is back!

God is pitiful, in the final analysis, it is better to be in the Ming Dynasty!

At the beginning, I thought that I could go to Dashun and mix with an official and a half-job, but who would have thought that those thieves would not change their hearts as thieves in the world, and they would torture and plunder, and they would suffer a lot in this time.

But now it's okay, the Ming Dynasty is back!

He is about to ascend to the pole.

When the time comes, the designation will still make everyone an official!

A new dynasty and a new atmosphere!

The new dynasty always has to employ people as officials!

The leading Ming official is Luo Yangxing. After Chongzhen's demise and Li Zicheng's occupation, the investigation agencies of Dongchang and Jinyiwei did not exist, so Luo Yangxing's news was not well-informed. Of course, he still knew that Jian Guo had won a big victory in Baoding. Otherwise, the thieves wouldn't have escaped from the capital, would they?

Like everyone else, Luo Yangxing was tortured and plundered during Li Zicheng's occupation of the capital, forcing out a lot of silver. In his heart, he looked forward to the return of the prison country to restore the Ming Dynasty, remembering that he had suffered a lot during the occupation of Beijing by the thieves, and he was not to blame for the past. Among them, he was thinking more about keeping his future and the wealth of the Locke family. What he hated in his heart was Li Zicheng, it was the "thief" who destroyed the Ming Dynasty and even took away the wealth of the Luo family.

Once a son of heaven and a courtier, how this prison will treat these old ministers who have been demoted, this is really bottomless, he has thought about it, and he will do a good job honestly, not asking for anything else, but asking for atonement for his sins.

The problem is, no one knows what kind of atonement for this sin is!

After all, they have descended Li Chuang!

even have to take responsibility for the loss of the country by the first emperor!

It was in this kind of anxiety that they finally saw the brigade of the prison country, in fact, not to mention the demotion officials in Beijing, who were thinking, even Zhu Guoqiang himself was also thinking about this matter.

How to deal with those demoted!

To kill, or not to kill?

Let's talk about killing, they are indeed innocent, and not killing is not enough to anger the people, and they are in court.

They have formed a huge network through teachers and students, classmates, and the same year, and this network is not only the Donglin Party, nor does it only involve hundreds of thousands of officials, but covers all the scholars in the Ming Dynasty, and even on the way to the capital, they are all persuaded to be "cautious", and even talk about Li Zicheng.

Li Zicheng...... It was because he offended the Beijing officials that he tortured the Beijing officials and lost the world, if it weren't for this, how could he end up in the state of rebellion?

And what was the first thing Dolgon did when he entered Beijing?

It is "ordering the original Ming Dynasty officials to settle their original posts". Hong Chengchou's poisonous trick suddenly caught the hearts of the officials and gentry.

Thousands of miles of officials are only for money!

Since they are officials, whether they are officials of the Shun Dynasty or Manchu Qing, they are all officials, and the ultimate goal is the same.

What a goal, the same!

Thinking in his heart, Zhu Guoqiang, who was riding on the mount, would occasionally look into the distance and throw his eyes to the capital, until he rode in front of him to report to the officials and people of the capital who went out of the city to greet him, Zhu Guoqiang asked Song Xuezhu.

"Song Qing, you said, when you arrive in the capital, will those demoted officials be killed, or not?"

Facing Jian Guo's inquiry, Song Xuezhu pondered for a moment, and then said.

"The prison of the country, since it is the crime of abandoning the lord and surrendering to the ministers, trapping the king and misleading the country, he should be killed according to the crime, since this is the case, it is not a big deal to kill it, but it is just ......"

Song Xuezhu groaned.

"Kill them, although the court is correct, the law is correct, but it is confusing people's hearts, after all, involving the whole body, these people involve too many gentry officials, the capital will have a prison in the future, naturally there is no need to think about anything else, but Jiangnan tax and grain, but it is related to the stability of the capital, after all, the capital is only the center of the imperial court, but the money, grain and utensils that the capital relies on are all taken from Nanjing, and many officials in the DPRK and China are from Nanzhi and other places, killing them is a correct national law, but it will definitely arouse the resistance of Jiangnan scholars, This will inevitably affect the taxes in Jiangnan, and the minister thinks ......"

Looking at Jian Guo, Song Xuezhu sighed.

"Killing it really relieves hatred, but for long-term consideration, you might as well pardon it, and wait until the world is calm in the future, and then slowly figure it out!"

Chao Song Xuezhu glanced at him, and then Zhu Guoqiang smiled, but did not speak.

Undoubtedly, Song Xuezhu's move is more in line with the interests of the Ming Dynasty, "settling accounts after the autumn", this kind of thing can be described as normal, just like in another time and space, the so-called "Holy Ancestor" in order to keep the world, to those generals who rebelled with the three feudatories, and the civil officials who surrendered to the three feudatories, that is also very generous, the official residence is in his original position, forgive his sins, how good, so everyone surrendered to the Manchu Qing again, but in the following ten years, the one who found all kinds of excuses to kill all these people one by one, and people died? Don't worry, his son and grandson aren't still alive. Find a reason to kill it, or you will go to Ningguta, in short, you will never let it go.

Look at the Manchu methods, how old and spicy and vicious these methods are. How much Wei Guangzheng, in the end, everyone is singing praises of virtue.

The people of the world only remember that the "Holy Ancestor is benevolent", and there are more than 1,000 abstentions and demotions. Who remembered that people had already written down those people in a small notebook, just waiting for the opportunity to behead the people above one by one.

What a trick!

His eyes narrowed into a slit, and Zhu Guoqiang did not give any response to Song Xuezhu's suggestion, but just quietly looked into the distance, looking at the officials and people who welcomed his arrival in the distance.

Whether it was excitement in my heart that our Daming was back again, or I was feeling guilty and uneasy, when I saw the honor guard of the prison country arrive, everyone knelt on the ground to receive it, some people shed tears, and some people whimpered. All in all, the scene was an excitement.

We're back again!

It seems that this is everyone's voice, in the face of such a scene, it stands to reason that Zhu Guoqiang should get off the horse and comfort everyone, and say a few words, such as "I'm late, let you suffer" and something like that.

However, he just looked at these civil and military officials, how many of them were demoted?

How many people have welcomed Li Zicheng's car at the beginning?

How many people have welcomed Dorgon here in history?

Zhu Guoqiang, who was riding on the horse, didn't speak, just looked at these people, and then, he saw the dragon chariot and the halo book carried by the brocade guards on the side, these things used by the emperor can be described as gorgeous and extraordinary, so not magnificent, and the prince's honor guard is completely different.

Seeing that the prison country was looking at those honor guards, the officials who knelt on the ground asked the prison country to get into the sedan chair and enter the city.

After pondering for a moment, Zhu Guoqiang said:

"Lone is not the emperor, this emperor's honor guard Lone can't be used."

A civil servant, who knew how to flatter, straightened up on the ground and said:

"The Duke of Zhou is not called the king, but he is also courteous from the south, so he might as well take the ride. Moreover, although the prison country is now a prison country, it is also the prince of the first emperor's succession, and it is also a matter of course to use the emperor's honor guard! ”

Zhu Guoqiang is no stranger to the allusion that Duke Zhou is not the king, staring at the guard of honor and saying:

"Long chariot ......, if Lone remembers correctly, this chariot was left by the first emperor!"

The prisoner's question made the civil official's face change slightly, and he dared to say anything more.

"This is the first emperor's dragon chariot, when Li Thief entered Beijing, you and others also used this chariot to greet him?"

When everyone heard this, they were all so shocked that they could hardly speak, but they still knelt on the ground and kowtowed to greet them.

Looking at the officials kneeling on the ground, Zhu Guoqiang smiled coldly, and finally set his eyes on Luo Yangxing, who was the commander of the Jinyi Guard.

"Where's Luo's nourishment?"

"Minister, minister!"

Luo Yangxing, who was named, stood up trembling and frightened despite the panic in his heart.

"Come forward and speak."

When Luo Yangxing walked forward in fear, before he could reach the horse, Zhu Guoqiang drew his knife, his hand rose and fell, and a bloody light spurted out of the air.

"Ah......h

Everyone screamed in horror, but Zhu Guoqiang sneered.

"Luo Yangxing, as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, failed to protect the first emperor when he was trapped in the capital, and he did not go with the first emperor when he was martyred, and his crime should be punished!"

Coldly dropping such a sentence, Zhu Guoqiang stared at the kneeling official and said.

"As an official of the imperial court, Emperor Mo's grace cannot be described as vast, but how can he serve the emperor? When the thief comes, where are you? How have you ever considered killing thieves to serve the country? One by one, they are all waiting for the price to be sold, waiting to change into the blue official robe of the traitor, hum, it is really 'the scholar doctor is scrambling to be the first to join the enemy, and the little woman is determined to keep the festival'......"

Such a spicy sarcasm came into the ears, only to make everyone tremble, if it was put aside and replaced by any person, it is estimated that those who have been spraying other people all day long will have jumped out and pointed to his nose and said loudly.

How can you dare to insult our civil officials!

Prison Country!

How is the prison country, in the past, the emperor and the old man also said that we would spray it, you are a little prison country......

They don't dare!

In the past, they could make a name for themselves by giving direct advice, that was because the emperor didn't dare to kill the officials, let alone kill the civil officials, at most they just let the eunuchs and lieutenants go to the court with a cane, and that thing was killed, but it was just bad luck and weak body, and the emperor didn't really want to kill.

But this master is different, he can really kill!

Not only will they kill, but they will dare to kill with their own hands!

Such an emperor is invincible, so he will be defeated and retreat first!
