Early morning.

Under the corridor of the Golden Palace, Chen Chao, dressed in a purple robe, stood with his hands in his hands, overlooking the eunuchs who were carrying buckets and brushes to clean the blood stains on the square.

The snow still didn't stop, but it couldn't cover the bright blood stains on the ground.

There was a massacre here last night, and half of the officials and courtiers went.

Chen Chao looked at the busy figure in the square with a complicated expression.

Stomp –

Footsteps came from behind him, Xu Boyan walked up to him and said in a deep voice:

"With such a large-scale killing and purge, the next court situation will not be stable, and those nobles will definitely oppose it."

Chen Chao retracted his thoughts and said easily:

"Whether it will be counter or not, it depends on whether we are fast enough, as long as the general's knife is fast enough, they will not have the time and space to rebel."

"Understood."

After thinking about it, Xu Boyan lowered his eyes and responded.

The Chen Dynasty wanted to let the news of the death of a large number of courtiers go out of the palace before it was completely spread out of the palace, so he let him, the executioner, go out of the palace first and eradicate those noble forces one by one.

"I will do it myself and leave no trouble, but how to stabilize the court, how to make the empress's enthronement ceremony go smoothly in a few days, and stabilize the people's hearts, is your business."

Xu Boyan looked at Chen Chao.

Chen Chao nodded.

The next period of time will definitely be the most chaotic period of Daji, and all parties in Daji will carry out a new round of reshuffle.

The Chen Dynasty almost used iron-fisted means to eradicate half of the hundred officials.

These people died in the palace, once the news came out, the Xungui group would definitely rebel, and the Chen Dynasty wanted to seize a time difference and catch them before they rebelled.

Kill what should be killed, exile what should be exiled, in short, leave no trouble.

Xu Boyan rubbed his fingers on the hilt of the knife, looked at the wind and snow, and muttered to himself:

"The second prince of Northern Xinjiang, if he hears that you abolished Yongxing and let the empress ascend the throne as the emperor, will he have other actions?"

Chen Chao thought for a moment and said:

"This, I should ask the old general......"

"The second prince is in northern Xinjiang, and northern Xinjiang is the territory of the old general."

Xu Boyan has 200,000 Xu family troops, but most of these soldiers are in the northern Xinjiang, always resisting the invasion of Rong Di, and the second prince was sent to the frontier back then, and it was the Xu family army that went to the border.

"You want me to kill him?" Xu Boyan's voice raised.

"I didn't mean that."

Chen Chao took a step forward, Yu Guang looked at Xu Boyan beside him, and said, "Don't you understand what the letter to the old general said at the beginning?" I, the Chen Dynasty, will not bear the discipline, otherwise, only in the name of the Xu family's loyalty, and the old general is loyal to the discipline, how can I say that the old general will work with me to do this bureau? ”

At the beginning, in the letter to Xu Boyan, Chen Chao mentioned that he would not rebel and claim the emperor, and all he did was to set things right.

He knew that Xu Boyan was loyal and would not betray Daji.

Xu Boyan was willing to work with Chen Chao.

"The reason why they killed Li Yu and Li Wei was because they rebelled and abolished Yongxing because Daji didn't need a king of success."

Chen Chao continued:

"As for the second prince of Northern Xinjiang, as long as he doesn't make any mistakes and thinks about his royal identity, I won't touch him, but my bottom line is that it's best for him not to return to Beijing, stay in Northern Xinjiang forever, and defend the border for the country."

Xu Boyan twisted his eyebrows and thought about it, and looked at Chen Chao, "As you wish." ”

"At the same time, General Ben also hopes that Chen Xiang will not break his promise, and General Ben hopes that Daji will get better and better."

"Yes."

Chen Chao smiled and let Xu Boyan relax.

The two didn't talk much, Xu Boyan took a large number of people, and the Chen Dynasty sent Murong Chong to cooperate with Xu Boyan, quickly left the palace, arrested those members of the Xungui group, and made sure to arrest all of them and not give them a chance to rebel.

After Xu Boyan left, Qin Xiangru saw the opportunity to walk up to him and leaned over at Chen Chao.

Before he could speak, Chen Chao took a step ahead of him and said:

"Well done, Qin Shangshu!"

Qin Xiangru knew what the Chen Dynasty was talking about, what he said was that Li Yu forced Emperor Yongxing to abdicate yesterday, and Qin Xiangru led his ministers to play a key role in fueling the troubles.

It was Qin Xiangru who forced Emperor Yongxing to abdicate the edict with hundreds of officials like grass on the wall, and the Chen Dynasty had the opportunity to let Yingying ascend the throne, so as to completely monopolize power.

"It should be, it should be......" Qin Xiangru squinted and smiled.

Chen Chao patted Qin Xiangru's shoulder and said with a smile:

"Those old bones in Wenchang Pavilion have returned to their hometowns to retire, and I plan to let you fill in the vacant places, I don't know what you think?"

Qin Xiangru's eyes shrank, and he was suddenly happy.

Wenchang Pavilion!

That is the real center of the imperial court, equivalent to the emperor's right-hand man, most of the country's affairs have to be approved by Wenchang Pavilion, and they are the emperor's close ministers.

Those who can enter the Wenchang Pavilion are all the emperor's henchmen, and they are rich and rich.

Is he Qin Xiangru?

To be honest, he is a timid and fearful person.

Now, being able to go to the position of the head of the household department is already a great luck in the previous life.

Wenchang Pavilion, he didn't dare to think about it.

"Why, you don't want to?" Chen Chao said this deliberately.

"It's not that I don't want to, it's just me, I know ......" Qin Xiangru said as if stammering: "I'm afraid I can't afford this heavy responsibility!" ”

"Ahh

Chen Chao waved his hand, looked at the fat man with low eyebrows in front of him, patted him on the shoulder, and persuaded: "Why are you still arrogantly thin?" I use people to judge talent regardless of morality, you are a person, although you are a little timid, and you are afraid of death, but. ”

As soon as the words changed, Chen Chao said: "I say okay, you can do it." ”

"I'll report to Wenchang Pavilion in a while, the court has changed greatly, and there are still many things to deal with the aftermath, you Qin Shangshu want to help me share some of it."

"Yes, yes."

Qin Xiangru was terrified, and he was a little uneasy in his heart.

Originally, he was in a high position in the household department, but he was already sitting very unstable, and now he was going to enter the cabinet, and he was afraid that he would not be able to do it.

After thinking about it, Qin Xiangru said: "Xiangye, I'm all in the cabinet, so why don't you get Yan Song in?" He's safer than I am. ”

Yan Song is the secretary of the criminal department, he is serious and cautious, but he is a little brainless.

This time, because of some things, he was beaten by Li Yu, and now he is recuperating from his injuries in the house.

"With him, don't worry, bring me a word, let him recover well before it's too late." Chen Chaodao.

It was at the time of employing people that Chen Chao didn't mind keeping Daji firmly in his own hands, and he didn't mind replacing all the bachelor's positions in Wenchang Pavilion with his own people.

After thinking about it, Qin Xiangru suddenly spoke: "Xiangye, there are few women in the world who are called emperors, and the resistance can be imagined......"

Seeing that Qin Xiangru had something to say, Chen Chao became serious: "Go on." ”

Qin Xiangru cleared his throat and began to speak at length, Chen Chao listened carefully and nodded frequently...
