Arrested so many high-ranking officials of the imperial court at once, the world was in an uproar, especially in the Jiangnan area, the base camp of the Donglin Party, those scholars have complained about Qian Longxi and other Donglin Party members, but the imperial court decisively listed in the newspaper the evidence of these people's corruption and bribery, deducting salaries and other crimes, each of which is conclusive, and each of them has all the human and material evidence, which immediately made them have nothing to say, and they can only say that the Donglin Party is a gentleman, and they will not be able to do such a thing.

But their words were so pale in the face of the conclusive evidence, and soon the newspapers published the will to abolish the Liaoyu, and the people who had already been overwhelmed all cheered, and those officials and gentry were secretly hated, and they took the opportunity of collecting the Liaoyu to make a lot of money.

There are also some blind officials and gentry who try to block the news and continue to collect the Liao, and now they don't have to hand over the Liaoyu to the imperial court, they can still loot more; But now the newspaper has spread so far and widely, and there are always some poor scholars in every place who are depressed and unambitious, and they can read the newspaper.

Immediately these people immediately denounced these officials and gentry according to the methods published in the newspapers, and mixed with the spies scattered in Dongchang and Jinyiwei all over the country, these greedy guys were immediately arrested by the imperial court, and the imperial court sent a messenger to quickly make a judgment, confiscating the family property and returning the illegally confiscated money and grain in the local criminal code, showing the unprecedented determination of the imperial court; Warned by this, the officials and gentry in the rest of the places who were quite excited hurriedly put away their careful thoughts, and exempted the Liao salary in accordance with the will of the imperial court. Especially the people in the northwest can finally take a breather.

At this time, after a long interrogation, thanks to the all-out exposure of Zu Dashou and others, as well as the hard work of Dongchang, Jinyiwei, and Sanfa Division, Qian Longxi, Wen Tiren, Zu Dashou and other people involved in the case were all interrogated clearly, and more than 100 high-ranking officials of the imperial court were pushed down and beheaded outside the noon gate for public display, and the people of the capital were thunderous with joy.

The rest of the officials with lower positions and those who were not deeply involved in the case, as well as the families of these sinners, totaling tens of thousands, were also strictly guarded, anxiously waiting for the court's decision to deal with them.

Just when everyone thought that another big case was about to rise after the Hu Weiyong case, the empty seal case, and the Lanyu case, Li You's disposal of these people came down, and these people were forgiven by His Majesty the Emperor and were exempted from the death penalty, and were only sentenced to confiscation of family property and exile.

This is also the result of Li You's careful consideration, these tens of thousands of people are the people of the Ming Dynasty after all, if they all kill him, it will inevitably be a little unbearable, but if all of them are forgiven, it will be too cheap, and it will cost a lot of money and food to imprison them, which is also extremely uneconomical, so exile has become the best choice.

Now the Age of Exploration in Europe has been opened for more than 100 years, because of the wide circulation of "Marco Polo's Travels" in Europe, those Europeans who coveted the gold of the East began to drive all kinds of ships to open up a trade route, their tentacles throughout Europe, Africa, America, Asia, even the Ming Dynasty has entered their sight, the Portuguese have been entrenched in Macao for a long time, and seven years ago appointed Mascolu as the first governor of Macau.

If the Ming Dynasty does not want to be left behind by Europe, it must go out of the Central Plains and set its sights on the wider sea, but how easy is it to change the inherent thinking of thousands of years? It is too difficult to move those people who have relocated to leave their hometowns and go to open up unknown lands, but these criminals are different, they have no choice at all, and it is already very lucky to have a way to live, so dare they ask for more?

Of course, Li You did not let them open up Liuqiu with their bare hands, as soon as the imperial court provided them with food, agricultural tools and even weapons, so that they could have the power to protect themselves, and would send officials and soldiers to assist them in opening up the land of Liuqiu, although these people were criminals, but because of their background, these people's personal abilities were also considerable.

The generals of the Guanning Army had good military qualities, and they did not lack the courage to fight, and they would certainly be able to gain the upper hand in the battle against the Liuqiu natives; Although there were many incompetent people among the gentry, they were not without talents, and they all had some experience in how to organize manpower to open up wasteland and how to establish villages and towns; As for the members of the Jin merchant family, they were born to be merchants, and presumably after the first difficult years, they would pick up this skill again and sell Ryukyu specialties to all corners of the Ming Dynasty, as well as the Wa Kingdom, Korea, and Nanyang.

So, at the behest of the imperial court, groups of sinners gathered from all over the world, came to the wharf along the coast, boarded the ships that had been prepared long ago, and they were to be sent to Liuqiu to open up the wasteland. will let them be expelled directly from the Central Plains, and I am afraid that they will never have the opportunity to land on the mainland again in their lives and return to their hometown where their ancestors have lived for generations.

Fortunately, after all, they were able to save their lives, and the imperial court also prepared food, farm tools and seeds suitable for cultivation in Liuqiu, and also sent someone to teach them how to cultivate the wasteland, accompanied by the most elite army of the Ming Dynasty.

The main force transporting these exiles is Zheng Zhilong, Zhong Bin, Li Kuiqi and others, after getting the news that Li You broke the slave and the Guan Ning army surrendered, and at the same time, because of the cooperation with Li You, they have obtained huge wealth, and their status has also been greatly improved, so they are now extremely obedient to Li You, seeing that they finally have the opportunity to serve Li You, can they do their best?

In addition to providing ships to transport these exiles, they also found a number of people among their subordinates who had been to Liuqiu, and asked them to act as guides for the exiles, telling them about the taboos of living in Liuqiu, and following them to Liuqiu, which would undoubtedly allow more people to live.
