12-18 Small white flowers on sideburns
The next morning, the court was a large-scale court meeting in the history of the Apocalypse Dynasty, all the officials in Beijing, including the ministries reporting on their work and those waiting for vacancies, all entered the palace, and the chariots, horses and sedan chairs outside the gate were bright and bright, and the water outside the gate was drained, and the dense rows of the royal forest army and the brocade guards were densely packed to strictly inspect every official who entered the palace gate.
Zhu Youxiao put on a guard of honor because he was happy in his heart, this is the second time he has raised his eyebrows since he ascended the throne, he used to be a puppet and was suppressed by the Queen Mother and nine thousand years old, and then after the coup was successful, he was restrained by the Donglin Party and was overshadowed by Liu Ziguang's brilliance, and he has been unhappy, and finally regained his dignity through the second coup d'état, from today on, he wants to work hard to be a truly great emperor.
Hundreds of officials entered the court, and saw that the Dan Majesty of Fengtian Hall was full of guards wearing brand-new flying fish suits, and the color of the clothes was not Jinyi Wei, let alone the Nanchang boys, all of them carried fire knives and knives on their waists, standing proudly with one hand holding the handle of the knife and one hand in their waists.
On both sides of the royal road, there are countless eunuchs with lanterns, elephants with treasure bottles, wearing golden helmets and golden armor, holding vermilion lacquer poles, honor guards, golden melons, axes, and hundreds of officials walked to the front of the main hall, the eunuchs waved their whips, smoked three drums, and the hundred officials went to the palace, and the emperor went to the court, from the python robe and jade to the red robe of the unicorn and the crane, and then to the green robe of the low-level officials, and the officials lined up outside the Fengtian Gate.
Zhu Youxiao was very satisfied with this solemn and solemn effect, signaling that Wei Zhongxian's decree was newly released, and the eunuch with the seal in charge, the chief of the internal affairs office, the minister of the guard, and the admiral of the Qin Secret Division, Wei Zhongxian, Wei Gonggong, came to the door of the Fengtian Hall with a serious face, and came to the door of the Fengtian Hall with the holy decree in his hand, and read it aloud.
The holy decree is an explanation of yesterday's riots in the capital, saying that Liu Ziguang has long controlled the government and corruption, used power for personal gain, and killed the prince without permission, and finally raised troops to attack the palace, intending to usurp the throne of a certain dynasty.
After Wei Zhongxian finished reading, the hundred officials were in an uproar, although they had guessed this ending in their hearts, but the shock in everyone's hearts was still very deep, for a long time, Liu Ziguang's prestige has been deeply rooted in their hearts, such an undefeated hero, iron-blooded general, finally fell into their own hands, it can be seen that the strongest of the strong is more powerful, no matter how strong the courtiers are, in front of the imperial power, it is just a joke.
The hundred officials were impressed by the emperor's thunderous methods, and they all bowed down the mountain and shouted long live, and there was not even a single person who jumped out to avenge Liu Ziguang's grievances, no wonder the officials who were familiar with Zhenguo Gong had all been imprisoned last night, and now the last dynasty is either a member of the Donglin Party or a petty official without a foundation.
Even the officials of the Donglin Party couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, Qian Qianyi and Qi Zhenming looked at each other, they were deeply shocked by the emperor's thunderous methods, and made such a big move, as the cabinet auxiliary Qian Ge Lao and Jinyiwei both commanded the criminal department, and the top political and legal leaders of the Ming Dynasty did not know, it can be seen that the emperor is actually guarding against them.
Now that Liu Ziguang has fallen, is it his turn? The officials of the Donglin Department are feeling uneasy, and the second holy decree has been issued again, and it is indeed a major official reshuffle, Liu Ziguang's original faction has all taken their posts and been imprisoned, not to mention that the Donglin officials are also quite affected, Qi Zhenming officially retired from the position of the number one leader of Jinyiwei, Xu Sanpi was on the throne, and Huang Xiaotian was demoted to the rank of squire, and there were old officials in the military department and the official department, and some unknown new officials came up, but the emperor only deprived the Donglin Party of officials in the army and finance, such as Qian Qianyi, A high-ranking official like Hou Sui was not only demoted, but also added the title of Taishi to show his favor.
Another disturbing news is the promotion of Wei Zhongxian and the emergence of the Qin Misi, since ancient times, the emperor loves to use eunuchs, because they can not reproduce offspring, in addition to the palace, can not gain a foothold in society, so must rely on the imperial power, Zhu Youxiao experienced Liu Ziguang's trust in the ministers after the incident, and defeated Liu Ziguang, but he re-established an antithesis for the civil officials, that is, the new eunuch party.
Wei Zhongxian has actually gathered a lot of middle and low-level officials, and after Liu Ziguang was killed, they came to power, most of these people are incorruptible and shameless, and they tend to be powerful, but there is no shortage of capable people, and their rise has formed a new political group, and the strength of this group lies in the support of the highest secret service, the Qin Mi Division.
Qin Mi Division originally only had a dozen people to carry out the secret low task, now since the big thing has been accomplished, it has surfaced ceremoniously, taking over the original tasks of Jinyiwei and Nanchang, with great power, can monitor hundreds of officials, arrest people and go to prison without going through the three law divisions, and Jinyiwei has been reduced to a general domestic detective agency, Nanchang is even more miserable, the old superior Liu Ziguang is finished, Admiral Sun Gang is also seriously injured, and many people loyal to the town have quietly left, and those who pick up the big beams have run away, and the rest are just some small miscellaneous fish, although they have not been revoked, but the power has been seriously reduced, and they can only be responsible for some frontier intelligence collection work。
After the reading of the holy decree, Baiguan Mountain called long live and retreated, the emperor left some ministers to go back to the Qianqing Palace, everyone understood that it was a great court meeting just now, and they could only say some things on the official side, and the content behind the scenes needed to be discussed by the close ministers of the Qianqing Palace, so that the Donglin Party people were a little relieved that Qian Ge Lao and Qi Shangshu were all in the list left, in addition, some young courtiers that the emperor had long taken a fancy to, such as the new talent of the Donglin Department - Sun Qi in the matter.
The exclusive text version of this work may not be reproduced without consent, and excerpts for more of the latest and fastest chapters please visit! The content of the discussion can be imagined for a long time, which is nothing more than the problem of dealing with the power vacuum after the death of Zhenguo Gong, Liu Ziguang's people are all over the northern provinces, Shanghai, Zhejiang, and Taiwan also have his protégés, and how to settle these people is the top priority of the current work, and it is not impossible for a little carelessness to break out into a full-scale civil war. Then there is the large inheritance left by Liu Ziguang, the Liguo Iron Works, the Jiangnan Shipyard, and a large number of entities such as the Meilin Canning Factory, the Nanyang Brothers Tobacco Company, and a large number of stocks and bonds, and the shares of China Merchants are equivalent to almost 30 million in silver! Real estate such as chain hotels, tobacco and rubber plantations are countless, and I am afraid that these assets will not be counted in a year, and Liu Ziguang and Zhu Youxiao will be counted as a big fortune.
Wei Zhongxian raided the Zhenguo Mansion, and there was really a big harvest, there were as many as one million taels of gold and silver in the treasury, not to mention the treasures, countless treasures, many treasures were not in the palace, those pearls were big and round, better than the color of the emperor's crown in the sky, jade agate, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and a large number of weapons and ammunition, and the most important thing is now more than a dozen sets of dragon robes and crown belts, which is ironclad evidence of Liu Ziguang's intention to rebel!
Everyone is playing this trick of politics, everyone can see that Liu Ziguang has two bad money in the family, and it is impossible to let him buy a dragon robe, this is nothing more than Wei Zhongxian's arrangement in order to cater to the emperor and prove the justice and necessity of eradicating Liu Ziguang.
After the end of the early dynasty, the officials of Ying Tianfu pasted the notices of Anmin all over the capital, and the mimeographed wax paper of uniform specifications was sent to the entire Nanzhili and even the provinces of the surrounding prefectures and counties such as Shanghai Road in Zhejiang, and the news was distributed by telegram, and then the local government posted notices with the same content, and in a blink of an eye, the news that Liu Ziguang, the prince of Zhenguo, was ambushed because of the rebellion, spread all over the north and south of the Great River.
Zhenguo Gong died, the first fierce general of the Ming Dynasty who was born from a humble background and died in the army, the one who scared away the Shunzhi Emperor and captured Dorgon, and led the Han family to recover the three thousand miles of the old country, the big hero died, the chivalrous and tender intestines, and the handsome young man who composed a romantic love story with the eldest princess of the dynasty, the strange man in the hearts of thousands of young girls, died, the one who led thousands of people to parachute into Beijing, the encirclement of 130,000 enemy troops, resolutely conquered the west, and leveled the Xixia Millions of male soldiers, and the idol in the hearts of countless hot-blooded young people died!
He did not die on the battlefield of Iron Horse Kingo, nor did he die of an irresistible disease, nor did he die a peaceful old age, but died in the prime of life at the age of twenty-nine, in a political storm that arose for no reason, and died under the slander of despicable traitors!
Mountains and rivers change color, grass and trees with tears, I don't know why the early spring of the south of the Yangtze River is not sunny, birds singing and flowers, these days have been gloomy clouds and low but no rain, martial law has been lifted, but walking in the most prosperous street in the capital, you will see the restaurant, the teahouse is empty, even the usual idlers flock to the Qinhuai on both sides of the Qinglou are also closed, thank the guests, the guests invariably took off the silk satin, put on a black dress and white skirt, all the prostitutes in the capital are unified in the sideburns to wear a white flower, to express the sorrow of the town Guogong, gradually the women of the capital are all with white flowers all over the city, do not hear the sound of silk and bamboo, all in silence for a certain unjustly died hero with filial piety。
