Fang Cai still looked like he had been wronged by loyalty, but at this time, Wang Min was kneeling on the ground, crying bitterly and regretting it incomparably.

The entire hall was quiet, but Wang Min's wailing echoed, and the ministers of civil and military affairs closed their eyes one by one.

Wang Min couldn't help but say to a few of his usual friends in the crowd: "Lord Meng, Lord Zhu, you plead with Your Majesty for me......"

It's a pity that it's too late for everyone to clear up their relationship with Wang Min at this time, who would choose to intercede for Wang Min at this time.

Wang Min begged hard, but it turned out to attract the disgusted eyes of a crowd, especially Lord Meng and Lord Zhu, who were called by Wang Min by name, and their faces immediately became extremely ugly.

A corrupt official who has been confirmed, if this is involved, who knows if the Son of Heaven will think that he is in the same group as the other party.

If it weren't for being on top of this hall, I am afraid that Lord Meng and Lord Zhu would rush up and block Wang Min's mouth.

Zhu Houzhao, who was sitting on the dragon chair, looked at Wang Min who was kneeling there with an indifferent expression, and said coldly: "Wang Min, as a squire, you can be described as a high authority, don't you know that military law is like a mountain, and official law is like a furnace, you are so bold, you even dare to move military funds, I ask you, what else do you dare not do!" ”

"Your Majesty forgives your sins, Your Majesty forgives your sins, the minister knows that he is wrong, and the minister really knows that he is wrong......"

"Come on, I will put Wang Min in the prison, the Criminal Department, Dongchang, and Jinyiwei will jointly handle Wang Min's corruption case, I will investigate it to the end, and I will never indulge one person in vain!"

Being able to embezzle money in the army is definitely not as simple as Wang Min, and Zhu Houzhao is not a fool, he knows very well that there is a corrupt network behind Wang Min.

If you get rid of such a person as Wang Min alone, at most it can play a temporary deterrent role, as for those who are hidden behind Wang Min, they will get away with it.

The hall was quiet, and many people could hear Zhu Houzhao's determination to investigate to the end just from Zhu Houzhao's words, and some officials with ghosts in their hearts only felt that their backs were wet all of a sudden, while those officials with a clear conscience straightened their spines and looked calm.

Such a hot corruption incident broke out at the beginning of the early morning, which directly led to the fall of a waiter who could be said to be a high-ranking official in the court.

Everyone, look at me, let me look at you, some officials have canceled their plans to play at this time, even if they have something.

After all, it is not cost-effective to anger Zhu Houzhao, who is angry, for some small things.

After a while, it seemed that seeing that everyone had no intention of discussing, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu stepped forward and said to the Son of Heaven: "Your Majesty, the minister has a play!" ”

Zhu Houzhao bowed his head slightly and said: "Song Aiqing has something to do!" ”

Song Zhili said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, King Wu Chu Yi sent someone to escort the lord of the small country of Dongying into Beijing, and the minister asked His Majesty to make it clear how to settle the lord of these small countries!" ”

The matter of Chu Yi sending people back to Beijing is not a secret at all, and for people in the officialdom, it is impossible to hide from these people in any trouble.

Therefore, in a short period of time, the news spread all over the capital, and the Manchu Dynasty was civil and military, and no one knew about it.

Now that they heard Song Zhili's words and the lord of the small country of Dongying that Chu Yi sent someone to escort back, many people still showed curiosity.

Everyone only knows the name of Dongying's foreign state, but they don't know that Dongying has been divided into so many small countries, and it is also thanks to the blessing of the lords of these small countries that many officials in Beijing can understand what kind of chaotic situation is in Dongying at the moment.

This understanding, many officials are sluggish, the size of only the Ming Province of Dongying foreign countries has been divided into dozens of large and small countries, this is simply a joke in everyone's eyes.

Such a large country is divided into dozens of large and small countries, and it is conceivable how big one of these countries is.

It was precisely because of this that at the beginning, everyone was very shocked when they heard that Chu Yi had sent people to escort back several lords.

But when I learned that the lords of these small countries were equivalent to the county orders of the Ming Dynasty, I was naturally disappointed.

I thought that Chu Yi had wiped out several countries at once across the ocean this time, but it turned out that he was just some county commanders.

But everyone is also very curious about these so-called lords of the country, what makes them have such courage, dare to claim a country in just one county, and the so-called Yelang arrogance is nothing more than that.

Zhu Houzhao pondered slightly, for the so-called lords of the country, in fact, there was Chu Yi's suggestion in the letter to Chu Yi brought to him by Yu Dayou earlier.

Chu Yi suggested that these so-called lords of the country should be sacrificed to the Taimiao, pray to the emperors of the past dynasties, and then behead these lords outside the noon gate.

Regarding Chu Yi's suggestion, Zhu Houzhao naturally did not have the slightest carelessness, and after thinking about it, he naturally decided to follow Chu Yi's suggestion.

How to deal with these lords who were escorted back can only be ordered by Zhu Houzhao, who is the Son of Heaven, so the Ministry of Rites Shangshu will open his mouth to implore Zhu Houzhao to show it.

It is said that Daming is a country of etiquette, and he has always been courteous to foreign lords, but for these foreign lords who are obviously captives of Wu King Chu Yi, the people of the Ministry of Rites don't know how to deal with them.

Zhu Houzhao said lightly: "It's ridiculous that a small state dares to call itself a country, I intend to sacrifice these people to the Taimiao Temple and behead them outside the noon gate!" ”

Many people's expressions changed slightly, obviously they didn't expect Zhu Houzhao to give such an order, after all, Da Ming has always been polite even to the captured enemy leaders, everyone thinks that these lords of small countries in Dongying are now captured alive, and nine times out of ten they will be given a title in vain, and then they will be kept in captivity in Beijing.

But what everyone didn't expect was that Zhu Houzhao actually ordered these people to be killed outside the noon gate.

When even some officials subconsciously stepped forward and said to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Majesty, no, don't ......."

Looking at the official who fell to the ground, looking like a dead father and mother, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help frowning, and forcibly endured the dissatisfaction in his heart and said, "Why not?" ”

The official is not a fool, how can he not hear Zhu Houzhao's dissatisfaction, in fact, he also regretted it a little at this time, everyone did not come out, why did he take the initiative to run out as soon as his head was hot.

Chen Wei is the imperial history of the DPRK, although there is no real power, but he has the right to play when he hears the wind, it can be said that anyone who is targeted by these imperial histories, no matter what is wrong with you, these people can find out a bunch of problems for you.

Chen Wei looked at Zhu Houzhao, gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, my Ming Dynasty is the state of etiquette, the kingdom of the Celestial Empire, although those people are the lords of small states and foreign countries, but no matter how they say it, they are also the lords of a country, although they are hostile, they should also treat each other with courtesy, so as not to lose the wind of my Celestial Empire!" ”

The more Chen Wei spoke, the more excited he became, and his face showed a look of holiness, a look of course, as if anyone who disagreed with him was a sinner.

Especially among the civil and military officials, some civil officials stroked their beards and nodded secretly after listening to Chen Wei's words, with a look of recognition on their faces, and among the military generals, many military generals showed a bit of contempt and disdain after listening to Chen Wei's words, and seemed to be very disdainful of Chen Wei's words.

After speaking, Chen Wei respectfully bowed down and said to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Majesty wants to be the prosperous monarch of the eternal world, and I implore Your Majesty to think twice......"

In the ranks of military generals and noble officials, Han Kun, who had a bearded face, strode forward and said to Chen Wei: "Ahh ”

Chen Wei was not afraid of Han Kun at all, but was very excited about Han Kun jumping out, and even pointed at Han Kun and said: "Vulgar and rude, really vulgar and rude, I am Ming who treats people with courtesy, so that I have the status of today's Heavenly Empire, Han Kun, you are so rude, you are really a reckless man......"

Zhu Houzhao had a gloomy face, looked at Chen Wei coldly, and said: "According to what Chen Aiqing said, if I don't follow what Chen Aiqing said, wouldn't I be able to become a Ming Jun?" Or does Chen Aiqing think that I am a lord of the Emperor? Hmmm......"

Especially the last word of Zhu Houzhao, his voice was elongated, his body leaned forward slightly, and an invisible imperial power pressed towards Chen Wei.

Chen Weidang was taken aback, Zhu Houzhao was really angry, if it weren't for that, Zhu Houzhao, as the head of a country, would never say such a heavy thing.

With a pop, Chen Wei kowtowed to Zhu Houzhao and said, "The minister doesn't dare, the minister doesn't dare to ......."

Flicking his sleeves suddenly, Zhu Houzhao snorted coldly, stared at Chen Wei and said, "Don't dare?" I don't think you dare, but you dare anything! ”

Han Kun on the side couldn't help but sneer when he saw Chen Wei's embarrassed appearance and said: "Lord Chen, you said that if you let His Royal Highness King Wu know about the prisoner he had captured with great difficulty, but when he came to Lord Chen, he would become a noble man of my Ming Dynasty in the blink of an eye, what do you think His Royal Highness King Wu would think?" ”

If you really talk about it, this Manchu Dynasty is full of civil and military affairs, and there may be people who are not afraid of Chu Yi, but there will definitely not be too many.

Therefore, when Han Kun moved Chu Yi out, even Zhu Houzhao was angry, and Chen Wei, who didn't change color, turned pale at this moment.

That's the killing god Chu Yi, if Chu Yi is targeted, don't say that he is just a supervising imperial history, even if he is in a high position, I am afraid that he will not be able to provoke Chu Yi.

Chen Wei, whose face turned pale, said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, your ...... Minister......"

Zhu Houzhao glanced at Chen Wei in disgust, and snorted coldly: "Chen Wei, I think you can go and explain to your eldest companion!" ”

Hearing Zhu Houzhao say this, Chen Wei inexplicably had a bad feeling in his heart, and sure enough, the next moment he heard Zhu Houzhao say in a deep voice: "Chen Wei, I order you to go to His Royal Highness the Martial King of Dongying to listen to it, and set off immediately!" ”

With a pop, Chen Wei sat on the ground with a look of despair on his face.

If this were to be another general, he would laugh out loud when he heard the order to go to Toei, because it meant that he could obtain military merit by going to the land of Toei, and as a general in the army, if he wanted to climb up, there was nothing more useful than military merit.

Therefore, I don't know how many generals in the army want to be able to go to Dongying to listen to Chu Yi's account, after all, the rumors about Yu Dayou and Qi Jingtong have already been transmitted back to the Beijing Division, and I don't know how many people envy Yu Dayou and Qi Jingtong for being able to enter Chu Yi's eyes, and since then, they have been on the rise and have a bright future.

But in comparison, Chen Wei was sent to Dongying by the Son of Heaven Chrysostom, which is not a beautiful difference, and it can even be said that Chen Wei was directly exiled by the Son of Heaven.

With Chu Yi's ability, I am afraid that what happened in the court today will appear in front of Chu Yi's case and be known to Chu Yi in the near future.

Everyone still knows something about Chu Yi, Chu Yi is most tired of people like Chen Wei, who are full of moral articles, Chu Yi doesn't trouble these people on weekdays, these people are lucky.

As a result, Chen Wei took the initiative to jump out, which can only be said to be self-inflicted.

Many people looked at Chen Wei with a sympathetic gaze, and as for the officials who said that they did not stand up before, but secretly supported Chen Wei, they also showed a little fear on their faces.

These people were secretly glad that they had just endured it and didn't stand up, if they stood up, I was afraid that there would be more of them among the people who were sent by the Son of Heaven to Dongying Chu Yi.

I don't know how Chen Wei was dragged down by the guards in the palace, anyway, everyone knows that Chen Wei is finished, he has evil the Son of Heaven, and he was sent to Dongying, even if he was lucky and did not die on the vast sea, even if he arrived in Dongying, Chu Yi was afraid that he would not let him have a good time.

Chen Wei was dragged down, no matter what everyone thought in their hearts, anyway, no one had any objections to Zhu Houzhao's decision at this time.

For those who don't want to do it offend the Son of Heaven and offend Chu Yi, a fool will do that.

With a light cough, I saw that Yang Yiqing, the secretary of the Ministry of War, broke the slightly embarrassing atmosphere at the moment, and heard Yang Yiqing speak: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Wu went to Dongying this time and gained a lot, but the land of Dongying is far away from my Daming, and the chief manager occupies a large area but needs enough soldiers and horses to occupy and rule, and the minister is sure that His Majesty will allow him to send another 100,000 troops to Dongying to help the general manager of Chu!" ”

Chen Ding, the head of the household, frowned and said subconsciously: "Your Majesty, no, 100,000 troops have crossed the ocean, and I don't know how much grain and straw will be consumed......

However, without waiting for Chen Ding to finish speaking, he heard Yang Yiqing smile at Chen Ding: "Chen Shangshu's words are wrong, the 100,000 army crossing the ocean is indeed a great loss, but Chen Shangshu is not clear, is the wealth captured by the single general manager in the land of Dongying in half a year several times the consumption of the army?" ”

Saying that, Yang Yiqing said with a little smile on the corner of his mouth: "In just half a year, the Grand Governor of Chu has destroyed more than 13 countries, occupied several gold and silver mines such as Iwami Silver Mountain, and seized gold, silver and jewelry, including 100,000 taels of gold, 3.48 million taels of silver, plus the rest of the jewelry, antiques and other valuables are also worth millions of taels of silver. ”

Everyone just knew that Chu Yi's expedition to Dongying brought back a large amount of gold, silver, jewelry and other trophies, but the specific amount, except for a very few people, really few people knew, so when they heard the amazing data that Yang Yiqing broke out, many people were stunned.
