If it turns out that the investigation and punishment of the imperial court also made some local officials hold on to the last trace of luck, trying to get away with the tricks, anyway, it has always been like this, supporting the bold, starving the cowardly, and having no guts, why are they still insatiable?

However, when Zhu Jie's will to appoint Qin Mufeng had been issued, and tens of thousands of heavenly mighty troops were dispatched together, almost all local officials began to fall into panic, who in the world did not know that Qin Mufeng was a murderous maniac? As long as he is caught, there is absolutely no way to live, in order to talk about this matter, the emperor actually sent tens of thousands of Tianwei troops in one breath to go to various places to supervise, this is fatal, I am afraid that the entire officialdom will be turned upside down.

The same Zhu Jie has also been prepared for the aftermath, the Hanlin Academy in the capital, the intern officials in the Gyeonggi area, have gathered nearly a thousand people, these people are basically strictly screened by the officials, just waiting to fill the vacancy, in order to be able to fill the vacancy in time, even Zhu Jie began to select talents from the two colleges of Guozijian and Beijing and Nanjing, Daming lacks everything, the only thing that is not lacking is people, especially those who want to be officials!

Qin Mufeng, who got Zhu Jieming's order, really opened the killing ring this time, as long as it was the official's east window incident, once it was verified, Qin Mufeng's Tianwei Army would hand over the case to the capital, and then the criminal official was directly cut off and interrogated in detail? So where did you come to trial? There are only a few birdmen in the Three Law Divisions, and now there are hundreds or thousands of officials who have committed crimes, and there is no way to arrange a normal interrogation.

For two whole months, things gradually calmed down, Qin Mufeng sprinkled all his anger on these prisoners, the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, the governor alone fell six, the chief and deputy envoys of the political department fell sixteen, according to the chief and deputy envoys of the judicial department fell eighteen, the prefect, the same knowledge, the general judgment, and the county were beheaded even more, no less than three hundred people, the Ming officialdom was bleeding, and finally even the court attendants had three people who were pulled out, beheaded for public display, and were exiled, dismissed, and demoted, and there were countless officials!

As soon as the rectification was carried out, the local chief officials or main deputies were reduced by more than three percent, such a huge data, unless a large-scale peasant uprising broke out, the peaceful years were unimaginable, Sun Chuanting and Li Yan and others were shocked to see it, and even the Zodiac Zhou and others had already seen tears in their eyes, including some friends and relatives of the court bosses, and their heads fell to the ground!

Huang Daozhou admonished more than once that there is no problem with strict investigation, but there is no need to use such a harsh punishment, it is too much, and such a big killing in two or three years will hurt the peace of heaven and earth, and it will shake the foundation of the country!

As a result, Zhu Jie was blocked back with a word! "Kunimoto? What is the foundation of a country? The people, tens of thousands of Ming people are the fundamental, these officials are just watchdogs for the community, since these watchdogs are guarding themselves and stealing, and they can't do their duty, so why keep them for? There is only one end, that is, cramps and farts, washed and stewed a pot of good meat! As for Tianhe, the 130,000,000,000 people of the Ming Dynasty are the heavens of the Ming Dynasty, and nothing is more important than their interests! ”

Huang Daozhou stopped talking, once something happened, the emperor made a decision, and the nine cows couldn't pull it back.

The remaining officials who have not found out the problem, as long as they have a good ability in the assessment of the officials, all of them will be promoted by one rank, anyway, there are vacant positions now, as for the alternate officials of the Hanlin Academy and the officials of the Gyeonggi area for internship and probation, they have all been put down to more important positions, and after repeated purges, the official system left by Emperor Chongzhen in Japan has been completely broken, either purged or completely integrated into the new bureaucratic system because of outstanding political achievements.

Perhaps, it will take a certain amount of time for the new official to adapt before he can enter a normal state, but once he enters the normal state, the benefits brought by that Daming are obvious.

"Your Majesty, now that the matter has gradually calmed down, Qin Mufeng has also been ordered to prepare to return to Beijing, and the local concerts have continued to enter Beijing, basically maintaining a stable situation, and not causing any excessive riots......

Sun Chuanting said in a deep voice, "This matter is so big, the minister is duty-bound as the first assistant, and I also ask the emperor to allow the minister to resign from the position of the first assistant and return to the ......countryside."

The situation has gradually stabilized, Sun Chuanting submitted his resignation again, he really can't continue to work in the court, this responsibility is too great, the emperor has no punishment, it is the emperor's mercy, but he has no face to continue to steal a high position.

"This ......"

Zhu Jie hesitated for a moment, and sighed: "Since Bai Gu insisted on resigning from the position of first assistant, then I agreed, and appointed Sun Chuanting as the governor of Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, and Jiangxi provinces, and the military and political affairs of the four provinces of Jiangnan on behalf of me. These places can even complete the transcendence of Jiangnan Province and become another granary of the Ming Dynasty! ”

Sun Chuanting knelt on the ground and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, the ministers will definitely do their best to live up to your trust!" ”

"Since you are leaving Beijing, what do you have to plan for the successor of the first assistant next?"

Sun Chuanting hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, with all due respect, if you are judged by your talent, Lord Li Yan is naturally the best candidate, and the minister also knows that the emperor intends to let Lord Li Yan take over as the first assistant at the right time, however, the minister thinks that it is better not to let Lord Li Yan take over for the time being, one is that Lord Li Yan is not from Hanlin, and it is difficult to serve the public in the court, and second, he is still born as a thief, after all, it is a stain, although Lord Li Yan's ability and character, you and I can trust the monarch and ministers, but for the sake of the overall situation, The emperor still doesn't put Lord Li Yan on this crater for the time being......"

Zhu Jie's heart sank, although Zhu Jie has always been interested in Li Yan, but what Sun Chuanting said is not unreasonable, Li Yan's background is indeed a big problem, not that Zhu Jie does not trust him, but that it is difficult for him to gain the trust of his colleagues in the government and the opposition.

"Do you have a better fit?"

Zhu Jie asked.

Sun Chuanting muttered: "At present, Lord Yuan Jixian can be a candidate, but he has been in the local area for a long time, and he is not very familiar with the affairs of the court; There is no problem with the qualifications and prestige of Lord Huang Daozhou, and Huang Zongxi, however, Huang Zongxi is too young and slightly inexperienced......"

Zhu Jie's eyes narrowed slightly, and he replied: "Since this is the case, then send a decree to summon Yuan Jixian to Beijing!" ”
