Cao Cao and Qiao Rui were not substantially punished.

But at the behest of Guo Peng, Cao Lan and Daqiao wrote a letter to Cao Cao and Qiao Rui respectively.

The punished officials were so frightened that for several days they were so frightened that they did not dare to sleep.

When the dust settled, they took a few breaths of emotion.

The emperor's wave of blows came too quickly and fiercely, and without giving them any chance to react, everything was settled.

Those who were driven away, those who could not be officials for three generations, those who were demoted, those who were punished and deprived of their salaries, all these things, a total of three hundred and seven people.

The bureaucratic power of Shangshutai was dealt a serious blow.

The heavily armed forbidden army directly under the emperor scattered out to assist the officials of the Third Division in handling official duties.

Under the guidance of the officials of the Third Division, all the officials who were to be expelled were arrested, their homes were raided, their belongings confiscated, and then they were expelled from the capital en masse, handed over to the relevant departments and sent to the place of exile.

A large group of men, women, and children lost everything, and could only wear the clothes on their bodies, and were driven out of the capital by the forbidden army's rough pushing, crying.

Then collectively ride on the ox cart and go to the unknowable future.

No one knows what the future holds for them, but what is certain is that it must be very difficult.

Luoyang's flower world, stone roads, the four thriving markets in the southeast, northwest and northwest, clean public toilets, and fresh air have nothing to do with them since then.

The superior economic and political resources in Luoyang City have no relationship with them from then on.

Cui Yan's mansion was taken over by a black-faced forbidden army force, and all the family members, including Cui Yan himself, were driven out of the mansion, thrown on an ox cart, and hurried out of Luoyang City.

He and them would never return to Luoyang City again.

The family was driven out of the capital crying and screaming, and then escorted back to Qinghe's hometown by the heavily armed army, and since then they have been imprisoned in the local area, and they can't even leave their hometown.

His direct descendants will also be imprisoned in the local area, and for three consecutive generations they will not be able to raise filial piety and be officials, and can only cultivate the fields and farm to make a living.

Because of Cui Yan's incident, Guo Peng blamed Cui Yan's family and asked to sit together.

Cui Yan's two brothers, who were local county commanders and county guards, were also dismissed and rushed back to their hometowns to be abolished as concubines, at least when Guo Peng was alive, he did not think about recovering and honestly cultivated the fields.

The filial piety and Maocai fame of the Cui clan were all abolished, all of them were not counted, and they were not allowed to be elected as officials.

This is the decision of Guo himself.

Because he was disgusted with Cui Yan, he wanted his relatives to sit together and be severely punished.

Qinghe Cui's family just got a little bit up, and was abolished by Guo Someone, and once it was beaten back to before liberation, it was abolished as a Shuren family.

It can be said that it is extremely miserable, and it can even be said that everything has been lost except for his life and a part of the land, and all the resources accumulated by the drilling camp for many years have been deprived, and there is nothing left.

Cui Yan is a typical person, and in addition to the model, there are many officials and officials who have been implicated.

Guo expanded the scope of the attack under [Anger].

The central authorities severely punished 307 officials, of whom only 106 were abolished.

However, at the local level, the relatives of these 106 people and the relatives of local officials at the three levels of prefectures, counties, and counties were also jointly investigated by the three divisions.

In the end, more than 70 local officials who had indeed committed malfeasance were found, and more than 60 local officials who had not committed malfeasance were also abolished and lost all political power.

It means that many families have not only suffered brutal political blows from the branches of the central government, but also local branches, and the power of drilling camps for several years has been wiped out.

This time, Guo did not just deal with central officials at the central level, but also the local government was implicated, and compared with the Cui Qu case a year ago, this time the impact of the political struggle was greater and the scope of implication was more extensive.

Not only did he lose his official position and status, but even his clansmen were implicated and could not be officials.

The large-scale dispatch of the black-clothed forbidden army in Luoyang made the officials in Luoyang tremble, for fear that they would make the emperor unhappy somewhere, so as to follow in the footsteps of this group of people.

The situation in Luoyang was completely taken over by the forbidden army under the command of the officials of the three divisions, and the dispatch of the forbidden army also showed that the emperor's anger was pouring out.

No one dared to offend the emperor's bad head at this time, and no one dared to intercede for those colleagues, they could only watch their good colleagues suffer a political blow.

The two major power groups of Shangshutai, Cheng Yu Group and Tianfeng Group, were hit by Guo Peng's thunder and suffered heavy losses.

Under such circumstances, on April 26 of the fourth year of Yande, Guo Peng issued an order and announced several things.

The first is to appoint Xu Jing, the former Taixue teacher, as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

The second is to appoint Zhang Zhao, the former Taishou of Hedong County, as the secretary of the ministry.

The third was to announce that the plan to extend the canal to Jizhou was recognized by the emperor as feasible, and ordered the Ministry of Industry to come up with an executive charter as soon as possible and start studying and discussing.

The fourth is to warn the officials of the ministries that the emperor is very angry because of this matter, and they should be careful.

For the sake of the battle of will, the emperor actually saw such an ugly side of his ministers!

There were even people who bled for this, fought and bled at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and injured Guo Hong, the imperial historian, and did not take the majesty of the Son of Heaven in his eyes at all, he was very angry.

This severe punishment is not the end, and if there is another such ugly fight, it will not be the way it is now.

It's going to die.

Remember, only I can bleed you.

The icy warning shook everyone's heart.

And this time in the political turmoil, the official with the highest official position in the fall is Cui Yan.

Although the cause of the incident was not because of him, the most unlucky person was not only him, just because he had the highest official position and caused the greatest repercussions, so this major political case in which a large number of officials were punished and involved countless family members was named "Cui Yan Case".

The incident caused by two consecutive major cases was officially characterized by Guo as a person surnamed Cui, in a sense, Cui's family is destined to go down in history.

But alas, they don't make any political capital.

On the contrary, it is necessary to lose all the political capital earned.

Therefore, the Qinghe Cui clan is completely abolished.

Following the Runan Yuan clan, Hongnong Yang clan, Yingchuan Xun clan, Yingchuan Chen clan, and Yingchuan Zhong clan, the sixth large-scale famous family was also dealt a devastating blow by Guo.

Unlike the first five, Cui's was purely looking for his own cigarettes, and he happened to hit the muzzle of Guo's gun, and Guo was right not to take their whole clan to open the knife.

At least Guo didn't kill anyone, but just punished his heart.

Because of their fear, the survivors didn't even pay much attention to the emperor's first three orders.

It wasn't until the turmoil of this matter gradually passed, and more than ten days later, Xu Jing and Zhang Zhao had already taken office, that they noticed what changes the emperor had made to the court situation.

Shang Shutai, which was hit hard and thus greatly reduced its staff, ushered in a new group of power holders.

Xu Jing, a native of Runan, once presided over the Yuedan Commentary, highly respected, very famous, known to the world, he was the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, there was no problem.

Zhang Zhao, a native of Xuzhou, although he has little qualifications, is older, and he is also a well-known scholar in the local area.

After going through the duties of county order and county guard, he is now promoted to the central government as the secretary of the ministry, and has been promoted from 2,000 stone to 2,500 stone, which is not a problem from a procedural point of view.

But if everything had been done according to the procedure, then the whole court would have been in harmony a long time ago.

It is precisely because many things cannot be done according to the procedure, and many things have to go through political struggles and interest exchanges in the open and covert, that many people are surprised by this matter.
