Chapter 891: Angry reprimanding the ministers
Li You returned to the palace, the army returned to the camp, and Zu Dashou and others were not sent to the imperial prison as those officials expected, but were brought into the military camp to be strictly guarded, which made many of their subsequent means unable to use, if they entered the imperial prison, they might be able to contact some people to kill them secretly, but the military camp was not poured into the needle, they could not find a little relationship, and there was no possibility of contacting Zu Dashou and others.

In this way, they came to the Qianqing Palace to participate in the court meeting with apprehension, and when they came to the palace, Han Yi and the others found that today's atmosphere seemed to be a little wrong, there were many more brocade guards guarding the hall than before, and Li You on the throne also had a serious face, and it seemed that a lot of anger had been accumulated, so that they did not dare to peep.
"Congratulations to our emperor for his defeat of Jiannu, the prosperity of martial arts directly pursues Taizu and Chengzu, long live my emperor, long live long live." Han You led the ministers to praise Li You's victory this time, but he only changed it to a faint sentence, and then there was no other expression, Li You didn't seem to put the most brilliant victory in the Ming Dynasty's foreign war after becoming an ancestor, which made Han You and the others who had already been good at each other unable to speak, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly cooled down.
"Your Majesty, Weichen doesn't know anyone, and he actually recommended Yuan Chonghuan as the Jiliao Governor, Weichen is really guilty." After a moment of coldness, Qian Longxi, the second assistant of the cabinet, finally couldn't help but come out to ask for guilt, the reason why Yuan Chonghuan was able to recover was because of his recommendation, and now Yuan Chonghuan has been killed on Phi Dao, and he can't escape the blame, so it is better to take the initiative to stand up and confess, maybe he can get the forgiveness of His Majesty the Emperor and save his life.
"Oh? Is Qian Ge Lao just a sin of not knowing people? Qian Longxi's words were like pouring a scoop of cold water into the calm oil pot, which instantly caused a violent reaction, and Li You, who had been silent, immediately shouted angrily, "If you pay Liao Salary from all over the country, you will send money to Qian Ge Lao, Guan Ningjun will send money to Qian Ge Lao if you collect Liao Salary, businessmen from all over the country will go to Ningyuan to do business and send money to Qian Ge Lao, Guan Ningjun will still send money to Qian Ge Lao if you want to get the ordnance!" Liaodong officials still have to send money to Qian Ge Lao if they want to be promoted! Now, do you want to deal with the past just by saying that you don't know anyone? ā
Qian Longxi's face turned white when he heard this, and he quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed like pounding garlic, he didn't expect Zu Dashou and others to sell themselves cleanly, and he was so scared that he couldn't even speak, just repeated, "...... Wechen is guilty..... Wechen is guilty......"
"Come on, take away Qian Longxi's official position, put him in the edict prison and torture him severely, send someone to watch the Qian Mansion, and not let anyone go, and then make a decision after finding out Qian Longxi's guilt!" At this moment, the Jinyi guards arranged around the main hall finally came in handy, and immediately several wolf-like Jinyi guards rushed in, took off Qian Longxi's official hat, dragged his official robe, and dragged this guy who was already paralyzed on the ground out, and everyone knew very well what kind of fate was waiting for him.
There is also a reason why Li You took Qian Longxi's first operation, first of all, it is an indisputable fact that Yuan Chonghuan took the position of Jiliao Supervisor because of his recommendation, and secondly, Qian Longxi is still the leader of the Donglin Party, and the Donglin Party is a force that Li You must deal with, and solving Qian Longxi is also to fight the Donglin Party, even if Qian Longxi did not stand up and ask for the guilt just now, Li You will still hold him accountable.
Since it has already begun, Li You simply solved these guys in one go, and then he took out the confessions and evidence provided by Zu Dashou and others, and repeatedly dismissed those high-ranking officials of the court who were implicated in the matter, seized their official positions, and sent them to the edict prison for strict torture.
ā...... Wen Tiren! Accepting bribes, embezzling salaries, and appointing private ....... Come on, take him down for me......" Another pile of evidence was thrown to the ground, and several brocade guards came to the hall, took down Wen Tiren, the scholar of the Ministry of Rites and the scholar of Dongge University, took off his official hat, picked off his official robe, and dragged him out of the hall.
As soon as Wen Tiren was taken down, many people in the court began to tremble, and some of them with weak willpower even fainted in front of them, because Wen Tiren is not a well-behaved person, he has many henchmen, and many people are involved in the things that Li You said just now, now that the leading Wen Tiren has been taken down, how can they have good fruits to eat?
Sure enough, Wen Tiren had just been escorted out, and Li You successively took down the henchmen of Yushi Shifan, Gao Jie, Tang Shiji, and Zhang Jie, the deputy capital, who were attached to Wen Tiren, and Wen Tiren's party in the court could be said to have been swept away.
Jinyiwei continued to go in and out of the main hall, escorting more than one official every time he went out, and outside the palace, those new troops in the Beijing camp also surrounded the mansions of these officials one by one under the command of Yue Yun, and the people of Jinyiwei and Dongchang were not idle, and according to the clues found during this time, they also sealed up all the courtyards and shops controlled by these prisoners.
Li You slowly returned to the capital from Shanhaiguan, not only to deal with those officials who committed crimes along the way, but also planned this matter, Luo Yangxing, Cao Huachun and Yue Yun also sent the most trusted and reliable people to receive Li You's will, they were planning this matter before Li You returned to Beijing, and now these efforts have finally seen results, those officials of the imperial court did not expect that Li You would attack them as soon as he returned to Beijing, not only did he not escape, but also their families, The cronies also all fell into Li You's control.
Li You's angry rebuke lasted from morning to noon, and then from noon to afternoon, at least one-third of the officials in the court were taken away by the Jinyi guard, and the rest were also afraid and hungry, many people fainted on the spot, but fortunately, Li You was well prepared, Fu Shan quickly brought the imperial doctor in and poured some ginseng soup on these people and then took them to the side to rest.
When the sky began to gradually darken, this large-scale arrest that had never been seen since the founding of the Ming Dynasty was finally over, but Li You's anger still did not stop, he stood in front of the throne and shouted loudly, "There are seven members of the cabinet, and I have to remove four; Of the six Shangshu, I had to dismiss three. Look at these seven people, which one is not a two-sideburn class, which one is not a pillar of the court, which one is not full of poetry and books, they are rotten, and my heart is going to break! The ancestors put the country in my hands, but it became like this, and I am heartbroken......"
