Zhengde 5th year, April.

The three major generals, civil and military officials, iron gall gods, and more than a dozen high-level officials of Dongchang and Jinyiwei played to the emperor and exposed Liu Jin's seventeen major crimes.

[Soliciting bribes, accepting bribes, embezzlement, excluding dissidents, framing loyalty. In order to increase his power, Liu Jin set up a spy organization "Nei Xing Factory" above Jinyiwei and Dongchang to supervise officials and ordinary people, creating an atmosphere of terror. 】

Above the court, Zhengde couldn't help but be taken aback and ordered Liu Jin, who was already dying, to be arrested and interrogated.

The next day, the emperor personally went out to raid Liu Jin's home. Millions of taels of gold and silver were found in his home, as well as contraband such as forged seals and jade belts. Two daggers were also found in the fan that Liu Jin often held.

Facts speak louder than words, Zhengde was furious when he saw this, and finally believed the fact that Liu Jin had rebelled, and issued an edict to execute Liu Jin Lingchi, and asked the household department to count Liu Jin's embezzlement, as well as the impact of related bills.

The officials under the household department worked tirelessly for three days and three nights and finally calculated that this Liu Jin was really a disaster for the country and the people.

There was a large deficit in all the bills of the state treasury and the inner treasury, and the embezzlement involved in the gold was as much as 2.5 million taels of gold, more than 50 million taels of silver, and other treasures were innumerable.

As for why only more than one million taels were confiscated, it must be that Liu Jin is cunning and has a private treasury, and the Criminal Department has ordered someone to investigate, and must make up for all the losses of the imperial court.

A series of policies made by Liu Jin during his tenure as overseer were all abolished at once.

Like what:

1. Dismissal of officials.

During these times, Liu Jin laid off thousands of officials in Tianshun, Shaanxi and other places, and all of them were restored and reused.

Two: Inhibit grace.

During Liu Jin's reign, the imperial court's measures to suppress grace and shadow were mainly concentrated in two aspects: official gifts and ministers' shadows.

During his tenure, the scope of gifts for civil officials and honorable relatives was narrowed. That is, those who have political achievements from one product can be gifted. Officials between the second and fifth grades, regardless of their political achievements, will not be given gifts.

Honorable ministers must have military merits, civilian grades or above, and must have outstanding political achievements before they can be awarded. If the political performance is mediocre, all officials will not be given additional gifts, regardless of their rank.

Such an act really chilled the hearts of the world's scholars, officials, and nobles, and of course it must be abolished.

Three: Hanlin officials transferred subordinates and foreign appointments

Previously, in terms of promotion methods, the promotion of Hanlin officials, "Ming Huidian" cloud: "All the vacancies of the Zhan Mansion and the Hanlin Academy's palm seal officials are all made up from the cabinet." ”

After Liu Jin ascended to the throne, this time it was changed to a list drawn up by the officials and decided by the emperor. More importantly, many Hanlin officials were transferred to subordinate officials and magistrates.

Such an act is a big violation of the law of the ancestors, and it is not an exaggeration to say that this Liu Jin has brought disaster to the country and the people!

Half a month later, Liu Jin served his sentence.

Three executioners took turns at the execution site. According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, Ling Chi must cut 3357 knives, and cut off a thin slice of meat with one knife, and the knife must not touch the vital point. Within three days, the prisoner's flesh and blood gradually lost his human form, but he could not breathe.

Because it was a public execution, there were many onlookers, many of whom were carrying money to watch, and they brought gold and silver in exchange for a piece of flesh and skin.

Most of these are Liu Jin's enemies, some have been persecuted by Liu Jin directly or indirectly, and some are relatives who were persecuted to death by Liu Jin. They scrambled to get a piece of Liu Jin's flesh and brought it home to mourn their relatives.

After the sacrifice is completed, an iron frame is erected on the fire, brushed with oil, and the meat is roasted and swallowed to show that it relieves hatred.

......

Shangguan Haitang walked on the road blankly with the little yellow cat in his arms, whether it was a dignitary or an ordinary person, most of them were dressed in new clothes and came and went daily.

There are all kinds of snacks around the street, Gejia dates, Guanxiang Kouguang family soup, Zhongwa Qianjia sheep rice, sweet bean soup in front of the miscellaneous store, fake wild fox, golden silk belly soup, fried lungs, stone belly soup, fake roasted roe deer, fried quail...

There were also many interesting performances at the intersections of the roads: sword dance, wrestling, spitting fire, tightrope walking, and the Workshop Division trained a hundred horses in advance to dance on the planks raised by hundreds of strong men.

The yamen and the shops in the guild halls are all lit up, and there are five-colored curtains hanging in the downtown area, and the dance pavilions and song platforms are carefully arranged everywhere.

As soon as Liu Jin died, it seemed that the whole of Kyoto suddenly came to life, and the entire court up and down, and the civil and military officials seemed to be very happy.

But what exactly are they happy about? Shangguan Haitang was a little confused.

And she felt that her father-in-law's eyes seemed to have become terrifying, and after Liu Jin's death, he suddenly became indifferent, stern, and even longing.

……

Dragon Guard.

Celebration feast.

Zhu ignored the wine glass and got up: "I want to toast everyone first today, because I didn't tell you all the arrangements in advance, so I worried you, sorry." ”

"Cheers!" Cheng said happily.

"Meow Meow~"

After drinking, Yun Luo said curiously: "Uncle Huang, we all thought you had committed suicide. ”

Zhu ignored a little smugness: "Since the accident of the knife, I know that Liu Jin will definitely find an opportunity to frame me." So I'll look for an opportunity to use this bitter trick and wait for him to show his fox tail first.

In this way, the evidence of his guilt can be caught, destroyed in one fell swoop, and the future troubles will be eliminated forever. ”

Su Xin said with concern: "What about the silkworm in your belly?" I've seen you faint in pain so many times, do you know how worried I was about you at the time? ”

"Suxin, I'm sorry. If you don't act realistically, how can Liu Jin believe it? In fact, it is an old friend of mine: the world's first strange man 'Traceless Son', he is familiar with the world's strange poisons and cures.

He once gave me a 'Ten Thousand Poisons and Insect Avoiding Pill' that he had studied for many years, and its effect was to eliminate all kinds of strange poisons in the world, and it could also kill all kinds of poisonous insects. I had taken it before I went to prison.

I had already calculated that Liu Jin knew that I was profound, and there would definitely be this kind of indiscriminate means. On that day, after I sucked the silkworm in your body into my stomach, it was indeed burned in a moment, and the pain was unbearable, even with my world-beating skills, I couldn't help it.

But half an hour later, the effect of the medicine took effect, and the silkworm died in my womb that day. ”

Su Xin frowned: "Then what happened to that sword at that time, I saw it pierce your heart with my own eyes." ”

At that time, she saw with her own eyes that the god Hou could not bear the humiliation and die in front of herself, and at that moment, she suddenly understood what it meant to have a heart like ashes.

The Iron Claw Flying Eagle stood up and said: "Of course that sword was prepared by the villain, the sword is eight inches long, but it is only three inches into the body, the injury is real, but it will not hurt the internal organs." ”

Haitang and the others looked at this old opponent in surprise, the big stall head of the East Factory, it turned out that he was the deepest hidden spy in Dragon Guarding Villa.

The key is that he plays too similarly, and they can't wait to kill him countless times and then hurry!

"Meow meow~" The little yellow cat jumped on top of the eagle's head and roared in the sky.

Several people immediately smiled.

Feiying hurriedly showed a simple, embarrassed and polite smile.

The current scene seems to be a bit exciting for him, he has just betrayed a master, and then in front of the newly recognized predecessor's master, he lives in harmony with another last recognized master.

Shenhou said solemnly: "The fake wound will definitely not deceive Liu Jin, and I also took the pill 'Turtle Breath Pill' given by the Traceless Son, and even my breathing and five organs stopped moving."

This is what I want to teach you today: to succeed, there is sacrifice, and to win a battle, many people will die. A little pain in the body is nothing, and the most important thing is to eliminate a big harm for the community! ”

After hearing this, everyone was immediately in awe.

To do this, it is very simple, but it is dangerous and ordinary people can't imagine it.

For example, that Cao Zhengchun, such a miraculous skill, if he suddenly attacked in the prison, and took advantage of the fact that the Shenhou was controlled by the Immortal Feather Divine Needle, he burst into a palm and killed the Shenhou?

This time, although there was a big victory, everyone was afraid.

Zhu ignored and turned his head to look at Wan Sanqian: "Of course, this time, I would like to thank Brother Wan for his help." If it weren't for Brother Wan, many plans would be like water without a source and a tree without roots, and it would be difficult to implement them at all. ”

Wan Sanqian smiled: "My efforts have also paid off, and Begonia has promised to be my wife." ”

Zhu ignored Shangguan Haitang and confirmed, "Is that so?" ”

Haitang nodded: "Yes, father-in-law, our wedding date has been set!" ”

Everyone present looked inexplicable, and everyone was noncommittal about this marriage. You must know that a knife is still healing, and he is also deeply in love with Begonia.

With a knife temper, will there be any exciting drama at that time?

"Let's chirp, let's chirp" The little yellow cat was looking forward to it while snorting melon seeds.

When the time comes, whether he is on the side of money or on the opposite side of his friend, it really makes him a little distressed.

"Haha!" Zhu ignored the satisfied smile: "The owner of the first village in the world and the owner of the first village in the world are married, then this is really the first wedding banquet in the world." Come, Su Xin, you and I will toast them first, and wish them a hundred years of good union and eternal marriage! ”

"Okay, Xianggong!" Su Xin said gently.

Her daughter's family always has to get married, and now she has finally determined her inner choice, and Zhu Wuzhi is her best match.

Zhu ignored his eyes widened: "Su Xin, what do you call me?" ”

"Xianggong!"

Zhu ignored the corners of his mouth, and he almost couldn't even maintain the demeanor he had maintained all these years.

Today, in addition to the great enemy, the Dongchang, Jinyiwei, and the forbidden army were recovered, and there were 300,000 troops forced by Liu Jin outside the city to pillow Godandan. Wan Sanqian married the righteous daughter who admired him the most, and there was no shortage of food and grass.

In this way, the picturesque country is about to fall into the hands, and at this critical moment, it is simply a triple happiness to express love again.

His life is complete!

"Huh?" Su Xin suddenly felt dizzy, leaned on the table, and then fainted directly.

Zhu ignored and hurriedly held on: "Su Xin, Su Xin? Happy Doctor! ”

When everyone helped Su Xin into the house, the divine doctor soon arrived, and after looking and hearing about it, Zhu ignored it and was a little dazed.

"Divine wait, the silkworm taken by the plain girl is extremely poisonous, which triggers his aging disease in advance. If you can't find the third cardamom within seven days, you will definitely die! ”

His life is not complete again.

"Father-in-law, what's wrong with Miss Suxin, what are you looking for me?" Begonia came over and asked respectfully.

Zhu ignored it and said coldly: "Order to go down and find out all the files related to Tianxiang Cardamom for me one by one." Also, before the time of birth seven days later, you must find me the third Tianxiang cardamom, otherwise, there will be no forgiveness! ”

Begonias dumbfounded.

Such a father-in-law is too strange.

"Why, didn't you hear clearly?" Zhu ignored Shen and said.

"Yes!"

……

On the second day, the Dragon Guardian Villa, the Hall of Loyalty.

"Look, look for it, why can't you find it!" Zhu ignored the anger.

Twenty years, he has been preparing for twenty years, and how much hard work he has endured to establish the Dragon Guardian Villa, just to collect all the information in the world, but it is useless at this critical moment.

Eater! Rubbish!

"Father-in-law, don't worry, give us a little time." Begonia said helplessly.

"I'll give you time, but what if God doesn't give me a little time?" Zhu ignored and couldn't wait to look up to the sky and roar.

Why did fate play such a trick on him?

"Divine Wait, Holy Lord's Message: Order the Iron Courage Divine Marquis to enter the palace and explain the collection of the secret privacy of the ten major generals, as well as the stationing of 300,000 troops outside the city, without delay!"

"Yes!"

After receiving the command, Zhu ignored and turned to his subordinates who knelt on the ground to receive the order: "Look for it!" ”

"Father-in-law, you go into the palace, we will look for it without sleep." Haitang hurriedly reassured.

Zhu ignored and nodded: "This emperor, when didn't you come to me, why did you come to me to enter the palace at this time, it's just unreasonable?" Okay, I'll leave it to you for now.

Begonia, you know how important it is to me! ”

After saying that, turn around and leave.

The current situation did not allow him to delay for a moment.

Half a day.

The Imperial Study, the entrance.

Zhu ignored his expression and walked out of it with a swagger.

Today, his identity is no longer different, and there is no need to put on any humble posture.

Uncle Tianzi, the owner of the Dragon Guardian Villa, is not involved in Dongchang and Jinyiwei, and is supported by hundreds of officials, who in this world can help him?

Since the emperor wants a reason, just find one and give it to him.

Cao Zhengchun greeted him and said with a smile: "Shenhou, I haven't seen you for a long time." Today, I heard you and the emperor arguing in the study, neither humble nor arrogant, which really opened my father-in-law's eyes! ”

Zhu ignored the negative hand: "Manager Cao, I don't know if we can still do the transaction we agreed before." As long as you give me the news of the third Tianxiang cardamom, I can promise you no matter what the conditions. ”

Cao Zhengchun stretched out his orchid finger and looked around him with a smile.

"God waited for your methods this time, it really amazed me. If I think about it carefully, if I am still in the position of the overseer of the East Factory, what if my martial arts are world-famous? I'm afraid I'm going to be pulled down by you.

Put it to death and live later, to retreat as advance, high, really high! ”

"Meow!" The little yellow cat is dissatisfied.

[Don't praise others, this cat is also very smart and witty! ] 】

Cao Zhengchun was directly silent, and only after three breaths did he continue: "Shenhou, do you think that with my current martial arts cultivation, do you still care about those things?"

Even if I want to, I can create a 'rootless gate' in this palace, and I am afraid that it can be inherited for a hundred years like that Shaolin Wudang. ”

Zhu Wuzhi nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Indeed, Brother Wan and Haitang have already seen your methods.

However, in this life, I must ask for something, for the sake of plain heart, even if you ask me to kneel and kowtow, even if it is to lick your toes, I am willing. ”

Cao Zhengchun was stunned for a moment, and thought for a long time with his hands behind his back.

"God, when I saw your body with my own eyes that day, to be honest, I was actually stunned.

I'm thinking, in these decades, if there is only one me left in this world, and no other acquaintance or enemy, how boring it will be.

So, I can give you the third cardamom, just as you owe me a favor. ”

"It's a deal!"
