Guan Shaoning, Huo Da, and Ouyang Da had just come to the Jubaomen of Nanjing City with a group of people, and they were stopped in front by Ruan Dayue and Dong Zhining and other guards.

Ruan Dayue smiled: "Guan Ge Lao, Huo Shilang and Ou Vice Xian, what are you going to do in such a hurry to get out of the city, Your Majesty has now returned to the palace, and the matter of choosing a concubine is not over yet, so you also have the leisure to go out of the city in this hot summer?" ”

"Elder Ruan Ge, what are you doing here, do we still need to report to you where we are going?"

Guan Shaoning was also a little scared in his heart, but on the surface, he still pretended to be calm, and he did not directly participate in the Duanmen and Gaofu incidents of the Duanwen Society from beginning to end, so he was still confident that His Majesty Zhu Youzhen would not be able to cure him if he wanted to punish him.

"Chen Shiding, the left attendant of the Ministry of Officials, revealed that the scholar of the East Pavilion University and the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, that is, the old man of the Guan Pavilion, conspired to collude with Gu Lin and others of the Duan Literature Society to disrupt the dynasty and usurp the military power, and also intended to help the Jiannu spy and the prince's faction to succeed, and the contemptible people have been ordered to control the three battalions of people and horses, and Ji Pinger and other chaotic parties!"

Ruan Dayue said and shouted loudly: "Take it!" ”

Suddenly, the people from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division who followed came came out first to get people, while the guards did not take people but stood guard on the left and right.

"Elder Ge, it seems that Chen Shiding has betrayed us all, so it's better to rush out directly!"

At this time, Huo Da shouted loudly and ordered his subordinates to resist these people from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, while he himself pulled Guan Shaoning and hurriedly ran out, and Ouyang Da, the left deputy capital Yushi, also followed behind.

Bang bang.

Gunshots rang out one after another.

Huoda once served as the governor of Susong, and had the military power to maintain local law and order, and the family members under his command were also quite powerful.

But at this time, before these Huo Fu family members who tried to resist the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division were in close combat, the muskets in the hands of the guards had already shot these Huo Fu family members to the ground, and the entire city gate was filled with thick and choking white smoke.

At the same time, the officers and soldiers of the remaining battalions of the Second Army of the Guards guarding the city gate also raised their guns, lined up in front of Guan Shaoning, Huoda, Ouyang Da and others, and fired their guns downward, making deep pits on the stone floor, and the flying stone chips directly hit Guan Shaoning and others in the face, and Guan Shaoning and others had to retreat.

He Xin stood on the city gate and shouted: "According to His Majesty's decree to blockade the city defense of Nanjing, the gentry are strictly forbidden to go out of the city, and the old man of the pavilion is also invited to go back. ”

Guan Shaoning couldn't help sighing, and Huoda also knelt on the ground helplessly.

Ouyang Da screamed and wanted to commit suicide by hitting the wall, but as soon as he ran to the city wall, when he was about to hit it, he stretched out his hand first, and reluctantly touched his head lightly: "I don't want to die yet!" ”

Ruan Dayue got off the horse, pulled out his knife, walked directly to Ouyang Da, and stabbed Ouyang Da in the chest:

"Ouyang Vice Xian, this official will help you, it's not easy to die, Your Majesty has decreed, you should use extraordinary methods in extraordinary times, and wait for the chaotic party to kill them directly, no need to interrogate and no accountability."

As he spoke, Ruan Dayue walked over to Huoda with a cruel smile on his face: "Huoda, don't you want to kill Ruan, do you still want to depose Ruan, it's a pity that Ruan was not dismissed, but you, now you have to give you a ride!" ”

Ruan Dayue stabbed this Huoda in the chest with a knife, and immediately this Huoda was already bleeding.

And Guan Shaoning, who was on the side, knelt on the ground with a plop: "Spare your life." ”

Ruan Dayue didn't bother to take care of Shaoning again, threw the bloody knife to the ground, and then turned around and left: "Hack to death with a knife, deal with it cleanly, don't affect the people to go into the city to buy and sell, and you will have to deal with those princelings later." ”

As soon as the words fell, the officers and soldiers of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division raised their knives with cold light and slashed at Guan Shaoning's body.

Guan Shaoning, who had just become a supreme minister, would not have thought that he would end up being hacked to death with a knife before he became a cabinet elder for a month.

……

"Anyone who wears the mark of a white flower will be killed by the White-clothed Sect! Shuiying Nunnery, Lou Yueguan and other places were immediately surrounded, and no one was allowed to be let go! ”

The officers and soldiers of the Guards rushed to the places where the White-clothed Sect gathered in various places in Nanjing City within one day, and Ruan Dayue also brought a group of officers and soldiers of the Guards and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to the mansion of Ye Junzhen, the right attendant of the military department.

But when Ruan Dayue arrived, a group of low-level officials in green or blue robes knelt in front of the Ye Mansion with Ye Junzhen, a senior official.

"Weichen and the others know that they are guilty, but I hope Your Majesty will not blame the prince!"

Ye Yunzhen stood up first, and after saying a word to Ruan Dayue, he first drew his knife and killed himself, and the blood was sprinkled in the sky, and at this time, an official yelled at Ruan Dayue: "Traitor!" Tan will kill you today! ”

After speaking, the official surnamed Tan pulled out the dagger in his sleeve and killed Ruan Dayue, Ruan Dayue waved his sleeve, and the two officers and soldiers of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division raised their spears and came over, and this Tan stopped when he saw the spear in the middle of the road, and a royal historian shouted when he saw this:

"We want to see Your Majesty! We want to see Your Majesty! ”

"At this time, you think of seeing Your Majesty, one by one, the guys with eyes above the top, in the name of the crown prince's accession to the throne, they are seizing power and profit, and even vainly trying to use the cult and the chaotic party to rebel, they are quite bold!"

Ruan Dayue waved his hand as he spoke, he was naturally not as generous as Wang Chengen, although he was a civil official, he hated civil officials more than eunuchs, so he directly said four words: "Kill them all!" ”

Suddenly, the officers and soldiers of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division stabbed directly with spears, and the official surnamed Tan also retreated, and disappeared with a lonely heart, at this time, he only ran back with a sense of fear, but was pierced through the chest by the three spears of the officers and soldiers.

And Yushi, who was so clamoring to see His Majesty, was also directly cut off his head, and half of his body fell to the ground gushing blood.

The rest of the officials who supported the prince's desire to have a large number of people and forced Ruan Dayue to retreat were also cut down one after another at this time.

"If you want to persecute this official, it's really simple, when did this official ever be afraid of you, since Your Majesty let this official take charge of the soldiers for three days, this official will let you taste the power of the sword!"

Ruan Dayue smiled and rushed to the East Factory.

At this time, the white-clothed cultists in the white-clothed cult gathering places such as Shuiying'an and Lou Yueguan were also all exterminated by the officers and soldiers of the guards.

Many places were directly burned, and the fire lasted for a day and a night.

At this point, Ruan Dayue and Wang Chengen came to Zhu Youzhen with Tu Guobao and Chen Shiding: "Your Majesty, all the chaotic party cults have been eliminated, and the people exposed and confessed by Chen Shiding and Tu Guobao have all been punished, and now only Chen Shiding and Tu Guobao have not been dealt with, please make a decision." ”

"Chen Shiding is a vain minister, although he has the intention of repenting, but he is sorry for me, sorry for his parents, and he hanged himself! Tu Guobao is a Han Chen, but he surrendered to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and now he is helping thieves to destroy his country, the crime is extremely evil, Ling Chi was executed, and 3,000 knives were given to sacrifice the military flag! The head is sent to Hong Chengchou! ”

As soon as Zhu Youzhen finished speaking, Chen Shiding knelt down first: "Your Majesty, spare your life!" ”
