As soon as he stepped out of the threshold, Zhu Youxiao took a deep breath, and at this time, there was no longer the slightest noise and noise at the station of Daming Daily. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Even the blood-soaked streets were cleaned up by the Ministry of Industry of Nan 0 Beijing after sprinkling lime in advance, and the wet bluestone slabs were not only full of the unique charm of Jiangnan City, but there was no trace of red left between the white lime stains.

It seems that the city has always been so quiet and gentle, that there have been no inhumane massacres and exterminations.

"Are you almost caught?" Zhu Youxiao asked, then raised his foot and took a step forward, it was here that day that he was smashed by a brick thrown over.

Fortunately, it was not a grenade that was thrown, and Zhu Youxiao secretly rejoiced.

Wu Jin arched his hand and said: "Back to Your Majesty, they have all been arrested, a total of one hundred and thirty-five gentry and students from all over the country, and another one hundred and seventy-two children, none of the scholars who participated in this parade successfully escaped. ”

"In addition, forty-three officials at all levels in the Jiangnan region have been arrested, and one hundred and four officials at all levels have been arrested, and like the above-mentioned scholars, they are now temporarily detained in the prison of the Nan 0 Beijing Criminal Department, and they are now waiting for Your Majesty's judgment!"

After listening to Wu Jin, Zhu Youxiao just nodded and asked Liu Kongzhao: "How is the security of Jinling City now?" ”

"Returning to Your Majesty, after arresting more than 400 lawbreakers and shooting more than 300 people, law and order in Jinling City has been basically restored, and now shops at all levels have begun to reopen, and one after another people in the market have begun to take to the streets again, and farmers in the suburbs have also begun to go into the city to sell vegetables."

Liu Kongzhao's answer made Zhu Youxiao very satisfied, but Zhu Youxiao still couldn't help reminding: "There can be no slackness, Jinling is the most important place in the south of the Yangtze River, if Jinling is unstable, Jiangnan is unstable, and if Jiangnan is unstable, the world is unstable, understand, in addition, the public security of other provinces in Jiangnan is also under your control for the time being, and all those who dare to take the opportunity to make trouble will be severely punished!" ”

Zhu Youxiao said and suddenly remembered that after he issued an arrest warrant now, he was afraid that the entire administrative system in Jiangnan would be paralyzed, so he turned to Li Mingrui, who also came to his side at this time, and said:

"The cabinet will draw up the decree, and you and Wang Chengen will be responsible at the same time, and immediately patiently persuade the people or officials with good official reputations during the Jianba procession, whether he is from a jinshi or a person from a scholar's background, or a tribute, or even promoted by an official, and promote his official position according to the situation, so that the civil affairs cannot be paralyzed."

When Zhu Youxiao said this, Li Mingrui had no choice but to obey the order, but he still couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, the position of the governor of Ying Tian has a lot to do with it, and now that Wang Wenkui has been detained, this position cannot be left unattended." ”

Zhu Youxiao was silent for a while, and frankly speaking, it was indeed a little difficult for him to appoint officials, there were too many officials in the Ming Dynasty, who was suitable to be the governor of Yingtian, he really couldn't think of it.

Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but look at Wei Zhongxian: "You have been in Jiangnan for so long, is there a suitable candidate?" ”

Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but sneer: "Don't hide it from Your Majesty, the officials of Nanzhili hate Weichen to the core, and Weichen has little contact with them. ”

"I have a candidate", Zhu Youxiao also had a flash of inspiration in his head, so he immediately said it, and then asked Wu Jin: "How is Yan Yingyuan's whereabouts found?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, this person is now doing the household department secretary office in Jia0xing, and now he has arrived here at the behest of His Majesty", Wu Jin replied.

Long before this, Zhu Youxiao asked the people of Dongchang to ask for the world, looking for people named Yan Yingyuan, Gu Yanwu, Wang Fuzhi, Jiao Lian, Zhang Huangyan, Chen Zilong, Xia Wanchun and others, and even asked him to go to Lijiazhuang, Yulin, Shaanxi Province, to bring all the boys from poor families who were about seven years old to Beijing for secret training.

This is the most peculiar task for Dongchang, because according to Zhu Youxiao's intention, looking for these people is not because these people have committed heinous crimes to arrest them, but to know their whereabouts and to remove them at any time.

For these, Wu Jin didn't know why His Majesty did this, why he would attach importance to these people who were still unknown at this time for no reason, but the only thing he could do was to strictly implement His Majesty's will.

However, through the results of Dongchang's investigation, Wu Jin found that almost all of these people were people of upright character and not pedantic and talented.

"Let him be the governor of Yingtian, Jiangnan, who is outstanding, really can't find a cadre who can be used", Zhu Youxiao said this, but Li Mingrui was also busy questioning: "Your Majesty, let a secretary be the governor of a province, I'm afraid the world will be difficult to convince the world!" ”

"Hmph, do I still have to look at their faces to eat now, at this time, I have made up my mind, and I can't discuss it anymore, so let Yan Yingyuan temporarily take the position of governor of Yingtian, within three months, he is not good, and it is not too late to remove him when the time comes!"

Now that Zhu Youxiao said this, Li Mingrui couldn't say anything, so he had to gently persuade the political envoy of Youbu to temporarily act as governor first, and then transfer Yan Yingyuan to be the prefect of the county within 10 days, then the prefect within half a month, the envoy to the procurator within a month, and then the governor within two months.

Judging from the current situation, Zhu Youxiao will not leave Jinling City within three months, and the civil affairs of Jinling City can also be temporarily premiered by Li Mingrui.

Zhu Youxiao finally agreed with Li Mingrui's opinion, which can be regarded as what Zhu Youxiao admires most about Li Mingrui, who can meet the unreasonable requirements of His Majesty today while following the selection system, which is the most important ability that a cabinet scholar should have.

This time, in order to crack down on these Jiangnan literati and remove the obstacles that hinder the development of national capital in Jiangnan, Zhu Youxiao cheated Li Mingrui and made him a traitor by the people of Jiangnan.

And Zhu Youxiao naturally wanted to repay the peach, and soon issued a decree to praise Li Mingrui for his dedication and dedication to his duties during this southern tour, and crowned him with the title of prince and young master, gave him python clothes, and enjoyed one-thousandth of the cadre shares of the Royal Weaving Bureau.

In this way, Li Mingrui was not only not dismissed for taking the blame for Zhu Youxiao, but became a person who can compete with Qian Qianyi, the first assistant, among civil officials.

As soon as this news was released by Daming Daily, it immediately caused an uproar in public opinion, and the Jiangnan literati and officials with hidden selfish motives had to admit that they really lost.

Today, Your Majesty will not lose the car to protect the marshal just because you brought out a Dong Qichang, and he is directly and blatantly protecting the officials of the royalist party.

In addition to Li Gelao who continued to be promoted because of his back, and Yan Yingyuan, an unknown little official, who was arranged for a rocket-like rise process for no reason, other officials were also promoted one after another.

After being promoted, the literati naturally would not go against Zhu Youxiao, after all, their official promotion was because of His Majesty's large-scale suppression, and they still had to serve Zhu Youxiao and sing praises for Zhu Youxiao.
