Hundreds of officials entered the Chengtian Hall to meet the new monarch, and Fu Huai read out the holy decree of the Zen throne and succeeded to the throne.

After kneeling three times and knocking on the mountain and shouting long live, there was silence in the hall.

The officials didn't know the preferences of the new emperor, so they didn't dare to speak easily.

Fu Huai rolled his eyes, and said, "Your Majesty, although the Xuanyuan Demon Dao has been eradicated, the legacy has not been cleaned up. There are many people in the court who are related to the demon path, and they should be questioned to punish the dynasty. ”

When the officials heard this, they scolded in their hearts, Fu Huai was able to ascend to the position of first assistant, and he had a lot to do with Xuanyuan.

Fu Huai has all the information of the Xuanyuan family, and if he investigates it, he will definitely be able to catch it all. Obviously, in exchange for the trust of the new monarch, Fu Huai directly sold his former allies cleanly.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks it's inappropriate, the new monarch ascends the throne, and he should give amnesty to the world, and stability is the main thing."

An old man in a purple robe stepped forward and refuted: "There are many calamities in the Demon Dao, and once it is cleaned, it is easy to shake the world. ”

Zhou Yi sat on the dragon chair, looking down at the hundred officials from top to bottom, watching their arguments with each word, and in a short period of time, three or four factions have appeared.

All demands are either for the sake of profit or for self-preservation.

Fu Huai is worthy of being the first assistant, with one spray of ten, co-opting and dissolving, pressing step by step, every word and deed is for the sake of the new monarch.

"Ladies and gentlemen, ......"

As soon as Zhou Yi spoke, he immediately fell silent: "I have cultivated a heart questioning technique, which can make people tell the truth, and I have never used it before, and I want to test it today." ”

Baiguan's face was pale, and he kept thinking in his heart, whether there was another Taoist emperor.

Zhou Ye ignored the government for decades and devoted himself to cultivation, and the Great Zhou Dynasty has gradually declined. If there is another one, who has been cultivating for decades, maybe the world will be turned upside down.

"Let's start with this Aiqing."

Zhou Yi pointed to the purple-robed old man who took the lead in refuting Fu Huai, and with a flick of his fingers, the magic aura fell on him.

"Who are you and what position?" Zhou Yi asked.

"Hubu Shangshu, Li Xian."

"Have you ever been corrupt or bribed?"

As soon as Zhou Yi asked, all the officials paid attention, and they all looked at Li Xian, who had been in charge of the household department for ten years.

Li Xian replied expressionlessly: "There is embezzlement of tax silver." ”

"How much embezzlement?"

"Two thousand five million three hundred seventy thousand taels."

Zhou Yi nodded lightly, worthy of being a book of households, with good arithmetic and memory.

Wow!

The officials were in an uproar, and even some stakeholders with Li Xian looked at him in disbelief.

At this time, the Great Zhou Dynasty had just turned from prosperity to decline, and its national strength could be regarded as okay. Zhou Ye ignored the government and the government, and cultivating the Tao was extremely costly, so he set up a clever name to increase taxes, and the annual tax revenue was only about fifteen million taels.

Ten years of household books, the whole year and a half of the tax greed.

Zhou Yi snapped his fingers and withdrew the Mind Questioning Technique.

The Mind Asking Technique is an extremely common technique, and its success mainly depends on the strength of the monk's divine consciousness, which belongs to the category of illusion. Zhou Yi used the Yuan Shen to show it to mortals, and naturally knew everything.

After Li Xian came to his senses, he immediately recalled what he said, his face was pale, and his legs were weak and he knelt on the ground.

"Drag it down, cane to death!"

Zhou Yi waved his hand, and immediately a guard in front of the palace dragged Li Xian outside the hall.

A sound of beating came, and Li Xian, who was over sixty years old, didn't even survive twenty strokes, and some guards entered the palace to report that the execution was over.

"Next, here you go!"

Zhou Yi pointed to an old man in a purple robe again, and used his heart questioning technique.

A moment later, the military department Shangshu, who embezzled millions of salaries from the two armies, followed in Li Xian's footsteps.

Two first-class bigwigs were beaten to death in a row, and they couldn't escape from the family and extermination in the future, and the remaining officials were all in danger, lest it would be their turn next.

"Don't be lucky, I treat everyone fairly, otherwise it won't chill the hearts of the two elders......"

Zhou Yi's voice was calm, and it fell on the ears of hundreds of officials like a cold wind to the bone, and some people who were ghosts in their hearts couldn't help but tremble, wondering if they had crashed to death on the court pillar to show their innocence.

"I don't have to think about dying in court, I'm proficient in the art of conjuring, and I can ask for the guilt when I die......"

Several officials who knew that they were destined to die turned pale when they heard the words, and they retracted the idea of killing themselves.

"However, I give you a chance to turn yourself in in court and then recommend a worthy successor."

Zhou Yi said slowly: "As long as this successor is capable and innocent, even if he is guilty of meritorious service, he will not be blamed for the past after being cut down." ”

Two or three hundred people came to the court meeting today, and basically all the officials and subordinates of the key departments in Luojing were present, and there was no shortage of successors, unless the entire department became accomplices.

If this is the case, Zhou Ye doesn't mind, and all of them line up to die.

The Great Zhou Dynasty has been established for hundreds of years, inherited for several generations, and the cultural and martial arts are prosperous, and there is no shortage of officials in the world.

"Ji Deyi, the servant of the Ministry of Households, knows that he cannot escape the blame for his crimes, and he is willing to make meritorious contributions."

Ji Deyi knelt down, turned his head to look at a middle-aged man behind him, and said, "I would like to push my subordinate Li Min as the head of the household." ”

Since Li Min entered the household department, he and Li Xian have been eye-catching, and have been ostracized, and have been repeatedly impeached by his colleagues.

Ji Deyi once sent several investigations to investigate Li Min, trying to catch Li Min's incriminating evidence and expel him from the court, but he has never succeeded. I never thought that it would become a life-saving pill now.

"Li Min, do you dare to ask your heart?" Zhou Yi looked at Li Min with interest.

"Minister, please ask Your Majesty to ask your heart!" Li Min replied in a firm voice.

A spiritual light fell, and after a while, Li Min came to his senses, and his face turned a little red. He is an honest official, and he is familiar with the functions of the household department, and the only secret is that he likes the daughter of a criminal officer of the sect.

used to be a childhood sweetheart, but unfortunately now the status is different, and the parents at home will never agree to this marriage.

"Haha, Aiqing is actually an infatuated man! I forgive his sins and give marriage to Aiqing. ”

Zhou Yi said: "Ji Deyi, the servant of the household department, perverted the law for bribes, collected the silver for the crime, cut the officials for the people, and promoted Li Min to temporarily receive the household secretary. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Ji Deyi kowtowed and thanked him, and the inner servant took off the black veil and withdrew from the Chengtian Palace.

Zhou Yi's gaze swept to the other officials and said, "You Aiqing can think about it, since you are an official in this dynasty, you must go through it under the skill of conscience. ”

"The minister pleaded guilty and would like to recommend ......"

"The minister pleads guilty and recommends ......"

A series of confessions, including many officials from the same department, among which the household department was the most serious, more than half of them were implicated with the former Shangshu Li Xian.

Li Xian alone is greedy for more than 20 million taels, and if other officials in the household department are fine, no one will believe it.

Some people in the rest of the departments also confessed one after another, and since they can't escape from the conscience technique, basically no one wants to raid their homes and exterminate their families. On the contrary, there was a joke in the recommendation of the successor, and there was a criminal officer who only knew about corruption and did not know who could succeed him, so he pointed at the subordinates who did not admit his guilt at will.

As a result, the conscience test, the subordinate was also a criminal officer, and the two brothers and sisters were directly killed outside the hall, causing a burst of panic.

Zhou Yi used the Mind Asking Technique one after another, and after a full hour, there were half fewer officials in the hall.

The six Shangshu directly dismissed four, only the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry two Qingshui Yamen avoided a catastrophe, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu concentrated on research and learning, the Ministry of Industry Shangshu was obsessed with test equipment, although there were small mistakes, but it would not cut officials.

All of a sudden, the Chengtian Hall seemed a lot empty.

In all dynasties, except for the beginning of the founding of the country, there has never been today's great purge.

Fu Huai watched a colleague disappear, he was extremely nervous, he knew that he was a criminal official, but he didn't dare to admit his guilt.

Zhou Ye's edict on the throne and Zhou Yi's edict on the throne were all handled by Fu Huai, and they belonged to the new emperor's hardcore supporters.

Once he becomes a criminal official, wouldn't he directly slap the new monarch in the face, not to mention that the rod will kill the nine clans, and Ling Chi will be able to cut three thousand knives.

"The emperor has ignored the government for decades, and he has raised so many moths, which makes my heart very painful."

Zhou Yi swept more than 100 officials and asked: "You Aiqing got out of the mud without being stained, it is really commendable, and if you take over the important task today, can you have the confidence to cure the world?" ”

"My emperor is wise! The ministers are all over the place, and they are dead! ”

Fu Huai deserved to be the minister of the humerus, and took the lead in kneeling down to thank him.

After the Great Purge, the remaining officials have completely disrupted the original faction, and their positions are basically promoted to three levels in a row. Whether it is for political ambitions or his own status, it is impossible to stand up against Zhou Yi.

"My emperor is wise! The ministers are all over the place, and they are dead! ”

In the midst of singing, Da Zhou opened a new era.
