After returning to the harem, the Emperor of the Apocalypse lay on the chair tiredly, beckoning to Chen Hong not far away, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse said in a low voice: "Find the queen!" ”

After a short time, Empress Zhang walked in with a dinner plate, and when she saw the Emperor of the Apocalypse lying on the chair, Empress Zhang sighed distressedly. Slowly walked to the side of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, put down the plate, and gently pinched the shoulders of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

"Orb, what did you bring? I don't want to eat anything now, I have a fire in my heart! Squinting his eyes slightly, he grabbed Empress Zhang's hand in his hand, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse said with a wry smile.

Taking the porcelain bowl on the side, Empress Zhang laughed softly and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine body doesn't say what it is, Your Majesty eats it first, if Your Majesty doesn't like it, then how about the concubine body?" ”

"The orb has said so, what else can I say? Come on! The Emperor of the Apocalypse smiled with satisfaction, and then slowly opened his mouth.

Picking up the porcelain bowl and taking a small spoon, Empress Zhang slowly put the spoon into the mouth of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

When the spoon entered his mouth, the Emperor of the Apocalypse felt a burst of coldness, followed by a burst of fragrance, and then a burst of coolness. After swallowing the thing, the Emperor of the Apocalypse felt that his whole body was much cooler and more refreshing!

Opening his eyes suddenly, the Emperor of the Apocalypse asked in a deep voice, "What is this?" ”

"It's a cold lotus seed soup, and the concubine knows that His Majesty is in a depressed mood these days, so she went to ask the imperial doctor, and the imperial doctor said that it is best to eat something cool and relieve fire. Although the weather is still a little two, eating some of this is good for His Majesty's body, but you can't eat more. Empress Zhang looked at the Emperor of the Apocalypse with a smile, and once again picked up a small spoonful and put it in the mouth of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

Gently holding Empress Zhang's hand, the Emperor of the Apocalypse smiled indifferently and said with emotion: "Baozhu." Or are you good to me, I don't know if the ancestors blessed, I have a queen like you. ”

"Your Majesty, don't say that, the concubine is the emperor's queen, and it is natural for her to be good to Your Majesty. Besides, His Majesty loves the concubine so much. The concubine body doesn't know if it's a blessing from the previous life. Empress Zhang was held by Emperor Qi, so she had to put down the porcelain bowl, leaned her head on the shoulder of Emperor Apocalypse, and said softly.

After a long time, Empress Zhang said coquettishly: "Your Majesty, the concubine should not ask about the government affairs, but the concubine is a little worried, what does Your Majesty want to do about the affairs in the court?" ”

After pondering for a while, the Emperor of the Apocalypse said slowly: "This matter should be able to complete the purge of the court." Those people in the Donglin Party can be cleared out. The outside swept away the governor of Jiliao, and the inside of the court was taking away the two Shangshu and **Xing, and the power of the Donglin Party in the court was almost eliminated. As for the local officials, there is no need to go to the cāo heart, once the son of heaven is a courtier, the court is changed, and the following is naturally changed. It's just that in the future, I will work the governance of officials and implement the two inspections of Chunqiu and autumn. Clarification of the rule of officials. ”

"Although the concubine doesn't understand it, the concubine knows. Your Majesty is a wise emperor! Empress Zhang put her hands around the neck of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, pressed against the cheeks of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and said proudly.

Gently pinching Empress Zhang's little nose, the Emperor of the Apocalypse smiled and said, "You! I know your thoughts, I have to think about the affairs of Liaodong these days, and I will leave the cleaning matter to Yang He and a few of them! Now the situation in Liaodong is just the implementation of my idea. ”

"Whatever Your Majesty wants to do. The concubine believes that he will be able to do it, and the concubine believes that His Majesty will be able to surpass Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty! Empress Zhang looked at the Emperor of the Apocalypse with a smile and said with a smile.

After the Emperor of the Apocalypse dispersed, he returned to the palace, and the ministers in the court sighed, and some walked out quickly, in a hurry.

Come to Yang He's side. Wei Chao said with a smile: "Lord Yang, Lord Yang is the chief judge of this case, our family wants to ask, did Lord Yang go to the East Factory first and rescue the case over there first?" ”

"Father-in-law Wei, this trial is not about the first come, the first to come, but the priority of the case. The case on Jin Yiwei's side is very important, very urgent, how should Jin Yiwei's case be tried first, Lord Yang, do you say? Luo Sigong walked over slowly, smiled at Wei Chao, and said in a mocking tone.

"It's just that I arrested a Liaodong Governor, I don't know what is rampant, we found the Governor of Jiliao, and we haven't said anything until now! O man! I don't know how to write the word modesty, young people nowadays are really getting better and worse at being people! Pi looked at Luo Sigong without smiling, and Wei Chao's tone was full of mockery.

Seeing the two of them like this, Yang He's brows were already furrowed, and it seemed that this chief judge was not easy to do this time. Coughing lightly, Yang He said in a deep voice: "Two adults, although Yang has never dealt with the two, he also understands that both of them are doing things for His Majesty. Yang is the chief judge this time, the two of them shouldn't want Yang to say something to the emperor, right? ”

Glancing at each other, both of them snorted coldly, they knew in their hearts that although the Emperor of the Apocalypse trusted the two of them, this Lord Yang He Yang was also a deep emperor's favorite. In this court, if there is anyone who is the most trusted and relied on courtier of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, it must be Sun Chengzong. If it was Jinyiwei and Dongchang, this question would be difficult to answer, but Wei Chao and Luo Sigong also understood that they and Yang He belonged to the same level. Compared to Sun Chengzong, it must be much worse, but if it is compared with others, it is much worse. Of course, there is one person in this, that is, Chen Hong, the chief administrator of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

"Since the two adults think what Yang said makes sense, let's talk about it now, what's the urgency about your case?" Looking at the two of them, Yang He asked quite seriously.

"My lord, Jin Yiwei copied out an account book in Yang Yuan's mansion, this is the account book of his smuggling of slaves. There are six companies listed above, all of which are based in the capital. These businesses are involved with the officials of the imperial court, so they need to be ordered by the adults to raid the homes of these merchants. Through these businessmen, it should be possible to find the officials behind the scenes! Luo Sigong hugged his fist at Yang He and said softly.

Glaring at Luo Sigong fiercely, Wei Chao said quite dissatisfiedly: "We also have an account book here, which records all the officials in the court, most of them are from the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Industry. The biggest is Shangshu. There are also waiters and outsiders, these people are all involved in the case of deducting military salaries, and our family also needs adults to give orders to arrest people! ”

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Yang He couldn't help but complain a little in his heart about the Emperor of the Apocalypse, his prestige in the clear stream was already very high. If such a case is investigated this time, I believe that it will definitely be prestige for a while. It seems that the Emperor of the Apocalypse has to hold it himself!

After pondering for a long time, Yang He said with some hesitation: "Two adults, should we be cautious about this matter, let's ask the emperor, after all, this action is a bit big!" ”

"Lord Yang, you seem to have forgotten what the emperor said in the early court, no matter who is involved, arrest them all. At this time, it seems a little inappropriate to ask the emperor for this kind of thing! Looking at Yang He. Luo Sigong said with a calm face. In his heart, he was actually a little dissatisfied, this case was all the credit of Dongchang and Jinyiwei, and at this time, Yang He was involved in it, and it seemed that there was a suspicion of stealing merit.

After a long time, Yang He nodded and said in a deep voice: "Since this is the case, then without further ado, just follow what the two adults said." Follow the names in the books. Arrest people and raid homes, but two adults. Is this book true? ”

"Lord Yang, don't worry, we have already handed over the account books to the emperor to see, and there are all human and material evidence." Wei Chao looked at Yang He, smiled meaningfully, and said playfully.

Again he shook his head with a wry smile. Yang He understood at this time that all this had been arranged by the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and he just needed to behave at the right time. As a chess piece, Yang He has the consciousness of being a good chess piece. Fist hugging at the two people, Yang He smiled and said, "Then it's hard for the two adults!" ”

The first year of the Apocalypse. On March 19, the whole capital was shaken on this day, and Jinyiwei and Dongchang poured out of the nest on this day. The business was sealed, the people were arrested, and the entire city of Běijing was in a rumor for a while.

Compared to these merchants, the arrest of the ministers in the court made everyone's jaws drop to the ground.

The officials arrested on this day included Yao Zongwen, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Wang Sancai, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Sun Ruyou, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Qian Qianyi, the head of the Ministry of Rites, **Xing, the head of the Ministry of Officials, and Chang Lin, the head of the Ministry of Households. These are senior officials, including the deputies of the Ministry of Affairs, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Six Ministries, and the Cabinet, and there are a total of 72 officials who have been arrested. In this regard, the biggest one is the cabinet scholar Gu Yu, a figure that no one expected.

The entire city of Běijing fell into a panic, and the officials in the officialdom were also in danger, but everyone did not expect it. After this day passed, the matter seemed to be over, and Jinyiwei and Dongchang's fans were not patrolling the streets. There has been no raiding for many days, and at this time, there is another new thing in Běijing City.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse has released the emperor list, and there are two ways to release it, the first of which is the Anmin list. On the emperor's list, it is explained that the family is raided and arrested, and these people are all people who collude with officials and businessmen and fornicate with slaves. There are also corrupt officials who embezzle food and wages, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse discovered the conspiracy of these people and wiped them out. I hope that the people in the city will not panic, the people have been arrested, and they must be severely punished by the law. In addition, he also admonished those who are in power and business to do things for themselves.

Although after reading the first emperor list, the people's hearts were much more settled, but when they saw the second emperor list, the entire capital was boiling.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse set up the Dengwen Drum, and all the people who had nowhere to redress their grievances and those who wanted to sue the officials could beat the Dengwen Drum. Don't be afraid of the protection of officials and officials, don't be afraid of the emperor's relatives and relatives, everything is decided by the emperor for you.

The news quickly spread throughout Běijing City, and countless people quickly gathered in front of the noon gate, all of whom wanted to come and see the appearance of Dengwengu. When I saw the one-foot-high Dengwen drums on the left and right sides of the door, I was shocked.

A peasant-like man pulled an old man and asked politely: "Uncle, the villain is illiterate, can you tell the villain, what does such a big drum do?" ”

"This big drum was placed here by the emperor, the emperor is shengming! The emperor said that in the future, if there is an official who bullies us, he can come and beat this drum, and the emperor will personally come to try the case. This is that the emperor gave us the people a chance to sue the emperor, no matter how big the official is, even if it is a relative of the emperor, as long as he runs rampant in the township and eats the people, the emperor will clean him up! Pointing to the big drum in front of him, the old man said with emotion: "The emperor is sage! Our good son is coming soon! ”

For a while, the atmosphere of the entire Beijing division changed again, although the case has not yet been tried, but the official style of the capital has changed. The officials are diligent in government affairs, and they are not as arrogant and unreasonable as they used to be, and even the city gate officials who collect taxes are much more polite to people. Some of the common practices in Pingri are no longer accepted now, looking at the two huge Dengwen drums, the people's hearts seem to have a bottom in an instant. Everyone knows that they have a place to sue, no one can bully themselves, and the government is in charge of their own decisions. Even if the government doesn't make decisions for itself, the emperor will make decisions for himself.

Gently putting down the tea bowl in his hand, glancing at Chen Hong beside him, the Emperor of the Apocalypse asked in a deep voice, "How is it outside?" Are there any unstable factors? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the outside is now praising Your Majesty's wisdom and martial arts, just ascended the throne and won a great victory in Liaodong, and now there are punishments for corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and the establishment of Dengwen Drums, Your Majesty's actions are not to be done by the Holy Lord of the Ming Dynasty! In the past few days, the fold of praising His Majesty has not been broken, and there are people kowtowing outside the door every day. Chen Hong smiled happily and said excitedly.

Smiling indifferently, the Emperor of the Apocalypse said in a deep voice: "This Dengwen drum will not sound easily, although it is said that it has not been forced to a dead end, and no people are willing to sue the emperor." Dengwengu is to tell the people that I will make decisions for them, and also to tell those officials not to do too much. ”

"Your Majesty is wise!" Bowing to the Emperor of the Apocalypse, Chen Hong said respectfully.

"How's the trial of Yang He's case going? What was the reaction of the officials in the court? The Emperor of the Apocalypse smiled indifferently and asked in a deep voice.

"Back to Your Majesty, everything is going well with Lord Yang, and I believe it will come out soon. There is only the court, there is no intention to move, after all, His Majesty cut off the Donglin Party, and now there is no one in the court who will intercede for them, but there are many people who fall into the well! Talking with emotion, Chen Hong also said helplessly.

Looking at Chen Hong with a smile, the Emperor of the Apocalypse said playfully: "It seems that you also feel a lot of feelings!" I ask you, what about the two people who passed through this faction? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Qian Longxi went to the Ministry of Rites, and Li Biao went to the Ministry of War, both of whom are very talented. When I first went, it was a bit hectic, but now it's much better, and most of the things can be handled in order! Chen Hong looked at the Emperor of the Apocalypse with admiration and said respectfully. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
