After Cao Huachun interrogated Zhao Zhilong and sent the mouth supply over, the time had come to the second half of the night.

Although it was already late, Lao Zhu, as a workaholic, obviously didn't have any intention of sleeping.

After reading this confession that was several pages long, Lao Zhu directly threw this confession in front of Chongzhen.

"Look, this is the honor you rely on."

Lao Zhu said in a somewhat unkind tone: "With these people here, why worry about the immortality of the Ming Dynasty!" ”

After Chongzhen read the confession, his face was also a little ugly, he originally thought that Xungui and Daming had long been tied together, and they were both prosperous and loss-oriented.

When these people do things, they have to take care of the Ming Dynasty and their own roots.

As a result, I didn't expect these nobles to do things so unscrupulously, and they didn't take the Ming Dynasty in their eyes at all.

Chongzhen looked at this confession, his heart was full of incomprehension, didn't they know that all their wealth and power came from the Ming Dynasty?

If Da Ming falls, what will happen to them, can't they think of it?

Chongzhen's heart was full of disappointment, he shook his head a little weakly, and then asked, "Grandpa, what are you going to do with them?" ”

"What do you think?"

Lao Zhu first asked a rhetorical question, and then without waiting for Chongzhen to answer, he said: "Naturally, they all have been killed, and if you don't kill them, you can't keep them for the New Year?" ”

"Kill them all?"

Chongzhen said with a hesitant expression: "Grandpa Tai, Lingbi Hou Tang Guozuo Ancestor is ......."

"Don't say that his ancestor is Tang He, even if Tang He is here, if he dares to do such a bastard thing, do you think we will cut him down!"

Lao Zhu first let out a cruel word, and then remembered his old brother who grew up with him, and he couldn't help sighing.

He is not a person who does not miss the old feelings, so if he directly cut down Tang Guozuo's family and let Tang He break it directly, he will also feel a little unbearable in his heart.

"If Tang He knew that his descendants were actually such waste cowards, I don't know if he would run over angrily and pinch all these unscrupulous descendants to death."

Lao Zhu's voice was a little vague, but after saying this, he immediately remembered Chongzhen in front of him, as well as those wonderful emperors in the history of the Ming Dynasty, who seemed to be no better than Tang He.

"Forget it, the eldest brother doesn't talk about the second brother, who can say the future generations."

Lao Zhu shook his head, and then said: "Tang Guozuo, we must kill, Lingbi Hou Mansion, we must also copy." ”

"As for his heirs, regardless of their descendants, they will all be sent outside the customs and let them start from the big soldiers."

"If you can mix it up, it's not that you can't return the position of Lingbi Marquis to them at that time, but if you can't mix it up, you will all die outside, and it will save Tang He and shame."

"Grandpa Tai is wise."

Chongzhen saw that Lao Zhu said this, and he didn't dare to intercede for those nobles.

It's all like this, what are you begging for, if you ask for it again, let the grandfather think of himself as an unsuccessful person, and throw himself into the army to be a big soldier, then he can't cry.

So in order to maintain his current peaceful life, Chongzhen wisely decided to shut up and no longer care about the lives and deaths of those nobles.

……

Early the next morning, before the start of the morning dynasty, the atmosphere of the Taihe Hall was a little solemn.

Yesterday in the palace, some people went, some didn't.

But whether they go or not, these people already know what happened yesterday.

Dozens of colleagues were brutally killed, and even the emperor even killed a few with his own hands.

The imperial court has its own laws of the imperial court, and there must be a process of killing people when killing people, so indiscriminate killing is unfair to the law and inconsistent with etiquette!

Since the Ming Dynasty, these ministers have been very hard-boned, and what they are best at is to fight against the emperor.

From Fang Xiaoru's confrontation with Zhu Di, to Zhu Zhanji, who was sprayed playing with crickets, and the big ceremony incident that caused Jiajing to go on strike.

Let's not talk about the starting point of these ministers, in short, they have not been afraid of the emperor.

So after learning the news that Lao Zhu actually killed the ministers and did it himself, these ministers instantly came to their senses, rubbing their shoulders one by one, and waited for the court to have a good fight with Lao Zhu today.

Of course, these people do not include Zhou Yanru.

At this time, Zhou Yanru looked at the indignant ministers with their sleeves rolled up, and his heart trembled a little.

He really wants to shout to these people now, don't go, that's not Chongzhen, that's Zhu Yuanzhang.

You and Chongzhen are presumptuous, scolding Jiajing, and even scolding Zhu Di, you can give it a try.

But don't bare your teeth with Zhu Yuanzhang, other emperors will have scruples when they kill people, but this one won't.

You must know that in addition to rebellion in Zhu Yuanzhang's life, the best thing he is at is not to be an emperor, but to kill officials.

During the entire Hongwu period, the officialdom was almost purged several times, you are not going to scold him, you are going to commit suicide.

Zhou Yanru really wanted to stop these people at this time and let them not be impulsive, but because Lao Zhu said, don't let him talk nonsense everywhere.

So without revealing the emperor's true identity, even if he is the first assistant, don't want to stop these officials who are like being beaten with chicken blood.

"Huh? Shousuke-sama, why do you look so bad? ”

A speech official happened to see Zhou Yanru with a sad face, so he asked with some concern: "Did you not sleep well yesterday?" ”

"Yes...... I didn't sleep well. ”

Zhou Yanru looked at this official, his face was a little stiff.

This is Guang Shiheng, who was given by the military department, and among the people who accused the emperor just now, he was the loudest.

So I don't know if it's a psychological effect, Zhou Yanru looked at Guang Shiheng and always felt that he was a little black.

"I heard that Shousuke-sama was also in the palace yesterday? No wonder I didn't sleep well. ”

Guang Shiheng seemed to remember something, and looked at Zhou Yanru's expression with some disdain, "As the first assistant, but I am afraid of power, I know that Your Majesty has done wrong, and I don't dare to speak out and advise, I am really ashamed to be with you!" ”

After saying this, Guang Shiheng directly flicked his sleeves heavily, and then took a few steps back, expressing his disdain for Zhou Yanru as a person.

Anyway, he and Zhou Yanru were not originally of the same faction, and they were not afraid of offending Zhou Yanru, so at this time, they could just take this opportunity to step on Zhou Yanru to accumulate a wave of prestige.

In normal times, Zhou Yanru would definitely not let him get his wish, but at this moment, Zhou Yanru was in no mood to deal with him, and in Zhou Yanru's heart, this light Shiheng was basically equivalent to a dead man, so why bother with a dead man so much.

So not only did he not get angry, but he arched his hand at Guang Shiheng with some admiration:

"The Guangda has a good character, and the old man is not as good as him."

"Today's advice to Your Majesty is all up to Lord Guang, and we will definitely wave the flag for Lord Guang to uphold the country."
