Hearing the statements of the ministers below, Zhu Houxi immediately said:

"That's what I thought, too. In fact, some people impeached them before, but I was in the way of the Queen Mother's dignity, so it was difficult to deal with them. ”

"Now that all of you Aiqing have spoken out about impeachment, how can I ignore it?"

Then, his expression turned to anger:

"I didn't expect that they would do so many hurtful things behind my back, which is simply treating my Daming law as if it were infallible! How can I endure this? ”

"Someone, the will!"

"Abolish Zhang Heling Changguo Gong and Zhang Yanling Jianchang Earl, and wear brocade clothes to arrest and jail!"

Hearing this, although everyone's eyes did not change on the surface, they all moved in their hearts.

The ministers only suggested that the queen mother be reduced in front of him, and the emperor was still talking about the queen mother's dignity in front of him, and he was directly cut off and imprisoned on the back foot, which is still for the sake of the empress dowager Zhang still alive......

Your Majesty is really ruthless this time!

Looking at the figure of the eunuch leaving, everyone knew that after today, the two Zhang brothers were afraid that they would never see the light of day again.

The day Empress Dowager Zhang passed away was when the two brothers returned to heaven.

But Emperor Jiajing didn't mean to stop, his gaze swept over the ministers below, and said:

"I know today that there are such two moths in the court, which have harmed me for a long time! It is also a great thing to be able to do it now. ”

"But! I know ......"

"In this court, these two people are not the only ones who have done such a thing!"

"What I'm going to say today is that there is no room for these corrupt people in my court!"

Emperor Jiajing stood up and issued his order domineeringly, his eyes so majestic that the ministers bowed their heads:

"I want to purge the court, leaving only the capable ministers and cadres!"

"Yan Shizhong, the secretary of the ministry, and Xu Xu, the left capital of the Imperial Palace, the two of you co-chaired this investigation, and the officials below the third grade in the court are allowed to be examined!"

This, isn't this Jingcha!

The only difference is that Jingcha can only inspect below the fifth grade, but this time, the emperor raised this limit to the third grade.

Yan Shizhong blinked.

Jingcha is once every six years, of course, it is not yet time, Yan Shizhong is the secretary of the ministry, and he is very clear about this process.

But facing Emperor Jiajing's sharp eyes, Yan Shizhong naturally knew what to say now.

He immediately complied.

Now it was the turn of the ministers to be dumbfounded, but they didn't expect that the Zhang brothers were just a head, and the emperor made a move on their heads.

But these old foxes quickly reacted - this is clearly an excuse to carry out a comprehensive rectification! His Majesty must have had this intention a long time ago, and the Zhang brothers just happened to hit the muzzle of the gun.

The two of them are also just right - you must know that the Empress Dowager Zhang is still alive, and the emperor has shown his determination to put the two in prison for punishment without giving face at all, and in this way, the officials who inspected it will not dare to fool around, otherwise, they will face the emperor's wrath!

"Not only the officials, but also among the nobles, there are many lawbreakers like the two of them, encroaching on people's land, etc., and doing whatever they want."

"They're going to check too!"

"Especially some of them, they have not contributed to the court at all, but they just rely on their relatives to get rich, and these people will be punished!"

Suddenly, everyone present raised their heads, their eyes lit up.

In the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies where the nobles gathered, there are only officials like the Judge of the Five Armies, who have anything to do with this matter, but it is only a positive five products, and he is definitely not qualified to inspect the entire Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.

When the time comes, the Metropolitan Procuratorate will definitely intervene......

Soldiers! Since the martial arts, the military power has been almost firmly held by the martial artists! Although Emperor Jiajing dissolved the Zhenguo Mansion, most of the most important power in this part was in the hands of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.

Could it be that the opportunity has come?

There was excitement in someone's eyes.

But how smart was Emperor Jiajing, and how could he make such a mistake?

"Yan Yuanmo, the right governor of the former military capital governor's mansion!"

Yan Yuanmo listened attentively, this was a good opportunity for him to learn court politics, and the emperor called his name, and he was excited, and immediately stood up:

"The minister is here!"

"I appointed you as the right governor and the judge of the five armies, the right judge, the left army governor's mansion, the British prince Zhang Lun and the left judge, you two jointly presided over the examination of the nobles, and all those who did evil were investigated!"

It turned out to be waiting for him here!

No wonder Yan Yuanmo was left behind, and Zhang Lun was also inexplicably summoned in, the emperor was obviously prepared.

Although the rank of the judges of the five armies is not enough, what if they are also the governors of the five armies?

Who is higher than them?

The faces of the civil officials present couldn't help but show a little disappointment, Yang Yiqing and Xie Qian glanced at each other, and secretly said that His Majesty is only twenty years old, but this method is already so old and spicy, and it is so comprehensive that it is difficult to find a loophole!

Yang Tinghe thought more, he looked at Yan Shizhong and Yan Yuanmo, who served as civil officials and military ministers respectively, and his heart was heavy.

He knew that since the emperor ascended the throne and started those two things, the emperor had always been very interested in Chen Guogong's blue eyes.

After all, it's a charcoal in the snow!

Although it is said that they are all in groups of two, there are Yan people in both groups, which has already shown the emperor's attitude.

And he, Yang Tinghe, became this big villain and became a stepping stone for them to ascend to the throne! If it weren't for his reputation among the courtiers, the emperor might have removed him from his post a long time ago!

I knew that I shouldn't have accepted that damn bribe, and I shouldn't have gone against the emperor, otherwise, the emperor, who grew up under the teaching of Confucianism, shouldn't have relied on martial arts and the Yan family......

Yan Yuanmo rolled his eyes.

The emperor's words seem to imply something......

……

Beginning with the Zhang brothers being imprisoned, the vigorous cleaning of the court began.

It lasted for up to three months, and a comprehensive investigation was carried out on the important ministers of the court.

Among the officials, a total of more than 100 lawbreakers were found, and the highest of them reached the level of a squire, obviously not fooling the emperor.

Many officials gritted their teeth:

"Damn, why did you just receive a thousand taels of silver, and it will be recorded?"

"It's just that I took a fancy to that Xiaomin's wife and forced her to remarry, there's no need to be so serious! It's all colleagues......"

"Believe me, I really don't know how these relief grains from the imperial court got into my family's treasury...... Damn, it must be because I impeached Yan Song and his son for visiting the Qinglou, saying that his family education was not strict, this is revenge! ”

"Yes, I also impeached them before, this is revenge!"

"Hmph, I want to see if this Xu Xuan can catch his protégé, this Yan Shizhong, whether he can take his clansmen!"

"If they don't arrest their own people, we will go to the book to impeach them, saying that they are excluding dissidents!"

"Yes, there are many charges against them, if the emperor knows, he will be the first to punish them! We might just be fine! ”

Many of the officials on the list gathered and said.

However, to their great surprise, these two Hades did not even spare their own people.

Xu Xu's disciples were sent in, and although the Yan clan generally obeyed the ban of the Chen Guogong Mansion and did not embezzle anything, they were still "found fault" by Yan Shizhong and dismissed a Langzhong.

A strong man breaks his wrist, this is a must, used to block the mouth of the world.

And the emperor, seeing this appearance, was also very satisfied - it seems that these two courtiers are really iron-faced and selfless in their errands.

The ministers have nothing to say, and everyone has already done something to their own people, what else can they do? A thousand words were held in the stomach, and I could only obediently dismiss my post, and I could only suffocate my family and my family, and I was extremely aggrieved.

In terms of honors, many of them have been found out, but these people are all knighted by relatives.

Emperor Jiajing's words were already very clear.

He wants to take a man who "gets rich by his relatives."

That is, relatives.

After all, if those martial arts who fought in the blood and fire, and the nobles who made war exploits for the imperial court, then they still have to say, for the sake of your old Zhu family, you don't want your life, and the emperor is embarrassed to say anything.

But those who didn't do anything, relied on their own good sister/daughter to take the position, but still acted as a prestige, Jiajing couldn't bear it.

He chose the Zhang brothers to start, which is already a typical example.

So Yan Yuanmo and Zhang Lun had no scruples about blackmailing these relatives.
