When a wooden bowl was thrown on the ground, the gruel in the bowl was scattered, and the wooden bowl swirled on the ground. Zhu Changluo, who threw the bowl, jumped to his feet and scolded: "Even if I am abolished, I should be crowned the king." Even if you are not a prince, you can be crowned an Le Gong.

What do you mean by this, give me gruel every day, and my bowels will become light. I want to eat the food cooked in the Imperial Dining Room, do you hear? Call your great commander, and call quickly. ”

Zhu Changluo's shouts echoed in Jingyang Palace, where dozens of princes and ministers were imprisoned, and they had to take care of themselves for eating, drinking, and Lazar. This is the most remote palace in the Forbidden City. During the Wanli period, there was a Wang Gongfei who was snubbed by the emperor and was left here for ten years without being able to meet her son. This place is actually the so-called cold palace.

Now there are a few lines of big characters written on the palace wall of the cold palace, on one side is 'confess and reflect, reform and repent, and be a new person', and on the other side is 'hang and pass the rope, take poison and administer medicine, and take care of life and death'. There are a few lines in it, which can be regarded as a characterization of this place - this is a labor camp.

After Zhou Qingfeng occupied the capital, he began to transform the imperial capital. Needless to say, clean up, tidy up or something. The whole city was mobilized to establish a solid grassroots government. The first was the census of the population, and then the rearrangement of the work of the common people and the servants of the gentry.

Those who have been wronged have complained about their grievances, those who have bitterness have complained, and those who have revenge have taken revenge. After the administrative department of the 'Revolutionary Army' was divided into the public procuratorate and law system, it officially evolved into the State Council. The entire public service system is busy jumping to the feet.

Fang Yizhe and other high-ranking officials were thrown into Jingyang Palace, and when they came here, they found that there was already a prisoner with the number '001' in this palace, Zhu Changluo, the deposed emperor of the Ming Dynasty. When Fang Yizhe came, he could only be coded as '002'. These people came in, and some people hanged themselves that night. The eunuchs in the original palace were also in charge of this place, so they reported it and transported the corpse away.

If you don't want to die, then please write an explanation every day. For example, Fang Yizhe was asked to write in detail about his life experience, political experience, and officialdom. And Zhu Changluo also has a similar task, anyway, he has to write and write. There are even people from newspapers who will come to conduct interviews and register historical materials, and there are many tricky questions.

After it is written, it will not be finished, but it will be publicized. No one questioned the announcement before it was counted. But the vast majority of people can't pass the public level, and many people write things that contradict themselves, and even splash sewage on each other and even quarrel. A ball of harmony? They have all been reduced to prisoners, that does not exist.

At first, everyone was still scribbling, but most of the people who were locked up were literati, and once they tore their faces, they attacked each other. All kinds of shady materials emerged one after another, and the 'revolutionary army' had special personnel to screen and compile their confessions, and then publish them all over the world.

The common people knew through the articles between these officials and masters why they lived so hard, and only then did they know how many dirty and dirty things the so-called 'scholars' who were usually sanctimonious had done behind their backs, and only then did they know that the imperial court had long been unable to sustain themselves from eating grain.

Among the people who can be locked up in the cold palace, '001' Zhu Changluo is a special case. Not long after he ascended the throne, what he did was to drink and lust. He doesn't care if others scold him. His only fuss is treatment, food, drink and women. This commotion is half a month, and people have lost weight, but they are more energetic.

Fang Yizhe wrote the confession materials in the room, and through the crack in the door, he could see Zhu Changluo who was making trouble outside. He didn't bother to pay attention to the movements of the abolished emperor, he only held the pen in one hand, and meditated in his heart about what to write today.

Most of the people in the cold palace are very well-behaved, because their families are still in the hands of the 'revolutionary army'. For example, Fang Yizhe has a letter sent in today, which tells the current situation of the Fang Mansion.

More than 100 people in the Fang Mansion were forcibly disbanded. Slaves and the like were restored to their free status, all school-age children went to school, and adults were assigned jobs by the 'revolutionary army'. At present, the affairs in the city are complicated, and there is a great demand for service personnel, and there must be work to do.

As for the property of the Fang Mansion, all the fields are gone. The 'revolutionary army' gave them only the most basic subsistence expenses, and the rest had to rely on their own labor to earn a living. This is like a bolt from the blue for most of the young masters and young ladies of the official family, and almost no one can adapt to it.

Some people hanged themselves, some people returned to their hometowns with their families, and some people were awkward to be obedient people. In short, this is a great wave of change, which is changing everything - but what about the 'revolutionary army'? is making a fortune.

A large number of powerful people were evicted from their homes, which soon had new owners. For example, a sign was hung in the courtyard of Fangfu, which was converted into the office space of the Public Security Department of the 'Revolutionary Army'.

Many of the princely residences were either converted into schools or hospitals because of their large land and large number of buildings. Many of the children of eunuchs are being trained as teachers and medical staff because of their literacy. Most of the nobles have been clothed and fed all their lives, crying for a few days, and when they are hungry, they can realize how desolate the poor people have no food for three meals, and then they will be obedient.

Seeing these descriptions in the family letter, Fang Yizhe sighed. He has served as the chief assistant of the Ming Dynasty for many years, and he is very envious of the joy of the 'revolutionary army' in governing the country. No matter what he wanted to do in the past, there were a bunch of people underneath him. In the end, the government can't do anything, and can only wait for death. On the other hand, this 'revolutionary army', no matter whether it is done right or not, at least people dare to think and dare to do it.

The use of real estate and the transformation of personnel are very important, but these things are not so eye-catching, and the effect is not immediate. And the seizure of officials' property is the most eye-catching.

According to the letter, the 'revolutionary army' counted the treasury and warehousing, confiscated the property of the imperial palace, the clan, the nobles, and the eunuchs, and screened and examined most of the officials, and pursued and suppressed the embezzlement of food, wages, real estate, and land. Just checking the property of several great eunuchs in the palace yielded more than one million taels of silver, and there were countless jewelry shops.

In addition, there were many officials and nobles who paid atonement silver in the majesty of the 'revolutionary army', some hundreds of taels, some thousands of taels. Now half a month has passed, and the newly appointed minister Ma Keshi is the 'three fires for the new official'. After he cleaned up the Huangzhuang and the eunuchs, he turned his head and began to clean up the document management system, and found more than 10 million taels of silver in only three or five days.

According to the newspaper's estimates, the amount of money collected in the entire capital will exceed 37 million taels of silver and 1.5 million taels of gold. '100,000 in the middle hall, 70,000 in the ministry, 75,000 in the Jingtang, 75,000 in brocade, 530,000 in the department. Even Hanlin also paid twenty or thirty thousand taels. The subordinate officials were all looted, and the families of the relatives were indefinite, and the people and money were exhausted. ’

The Fang family was also confiscated more than 100,000 family property, but Fang Yizhe was happy when he saw the description in the family letter. He not only felt sorry for his own dilapidation, but also scolded the powerful families in Beijing, "You deserve it, you deserve it!" At the beginning, I asked you to help, but one by one came to cry poor, and refused to give money when he died. Now a ruthless character has arrived, and he will snatch all your money in one go. ”

More than 30 million taels, more than 30 million!

Thinking of the difficulty of being the first assistant to raise money, Fang Yizhe was not happy in his heart. He immediately thought of what material he was going to write today, so he wrote about the ugliness of those powerful people before the end of the Ming Dynasty. Write about the stupidity of these people who are unwilling to come out in the face of the edifice that will be half of their strength. "If these guys are willing to pay, my Ming will not be defeated so quickly."

As soon as the idea is clear, Fang Yizhe writes quickly. He spent the morning writing a book of 10,000 words, counting the stupid things of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs, to show his difficulties and difficulties as the first assistant. When it was almost over, someone suddenly pushed the door open. Fang Yizhe was taken aback, and when he looked up, he saw Zhu Changluo, whose face was full of tears, running in.

"Fang Aiqing, you can help me!" Zhu Changluo almost fell to the ground, hugged Fang Yizhe's thigh and shouted: "It has only been a year since I ascended the throne, and you handle all government affairs on weekdays." If there's anything, you can confess it for me. ”

Fang Yizhe felt inexplicable, he had avoided contact with Zhu Changluo for the past few days, because he really didn't know how to communicate with this deposed emperor. It is obviously inappropriate to call him 'the emperor' again, but it seems even more inappropriate to call him something else.

"Don't cry, don't cry, what's the matter with Brother Zhu?" Fang Yizhe is old, and after thinking about it for a long time, he feels that it is more appropriate to call him 'Brother Zhu'. It's just that Zhu Changluo is obese, and he can't pull it up even if he tries his best.

"Those thieves said that I didn't want to be honest, and they just dragged me to criticize and parade the streets." Zhu Changluo cried miserably, and the process of parading the streets was even more miserable. The people of the capital all knew that the Ming Emperor lived with him, but no one had seen it. When I learned that the 'abolished emperor parade on the street', a sea of people appeared in Hulala, and I wanted to know what the emperor looked like.

When they saw Zhu Changluo's demented and stupid face, the people felt disappointed and even angry. No one expected that their emperor would be such a person, and some people were angry and vented all their resentment about their miserable life in the past on Zhu Changluo - at first, the people just scolded, and then they threw mud and stones, and some people even wanted to come up and tear Zhu Changluo's body apart.

Zhu Changluo has lived in the deep palace for more than 30 years, and he was so frightened that he cried on the spot, and all the feces and urine came out. When he finally returned to Jingyang Palace, the eunuch guarding him warned him that if he didn't write the materials honestly, he would be dragged to criticize him again.

"Aiqing, save me." Zhu Changluo hugged Fang Yizhe's thigh, "This Ming Dynasty is really not my sin. All the decrees are from you, and all the ugly things in the court and the central government are also your fault, so you should take this responsibility. ”

Fang Yizhe was thin and thin, and he was hugged by Zhu Changluo and could hardly move. But when he heard this, he immediately burst into a lot of anger, and kicked the waste emperor away with force under his feet.

The Ming Dynasty generally had one first auxiliary and two secondary auxiliaries. Fang Yizhe was originally promoted as a secondary assistant, but because of Wanli's neglect, the cabinet has been short of people for a long time. He was the only minister, so this time he became the first assistant. Therefore, Zhu Changluo said that the decrees came from him, and he was not wrong.

But now that the Ming Dynasty is finished, the history books will inevitably sum up the lessons of history in the future. Who would dare to take on this huge responsibility so easily at this time? If this is a nod, once it is written in the history books, it will inevitably be stinking for 10,000 years.

Fang Yizhe kicked Zhu Changluo away, and scolded him: "You faint king, Emperor Wanli didn't look down on you back then, and wanted King Lifu to succeed him." I'll wait for the courtiers to protect you before you ascend the throne. But as a king, you don't want to innovate, you don't get close to virtuous, but hide in the harem and indulge in luxury. I ......, I will write down what you have done, so that all generations will remember it. ”

Zhu Changluo blinked his eyes, as if he couldn't believe that Fang Yizhe actually turned around and bit him. But when he reacted, he immediately jumped to his feet and scolded: "You ......, you traitor." I am so good to you, do you dare to write bad things about me? You wait, you wait, I will also write about your ugly things. Don't think I don't know what you've done. ”

After speaking, Zhu Changluo stumbled the door and ran towards his house. Fang Yizhe was originally angry, but now he is cold. He secretly screamed 'not good', as if something had gotten into trouble.
