Huai 'en, full name Cao Huai' en.
Before he entered the palace, he practiced the Yin martial arts. After he entered the palace, he had been lying low.
When the young eunuch told the news to Cao Huaien, the Governor of the East Chamber, he was shocked.
Wynne smiled sinisterly, his eyes narrowed like a poisonous snake. He exerted force with his feet, and the bluestone floor of the Court of Judicial Review was crushed.
"Arrogant little thief, you dare to bully our emperor!”
"Do you really think we're easy to provoke?"
When Huai En heard that the Great Ming Dynasty's treasury was robbed of silver, his entire body emitted a killing intent that he had never felt before. The young eunuchs around him all trembled.
Yangxin Palace Hall.
Wynne knocked on the ground with one knee.
"Emperor, one day! This old servant needs a day!"
Zhu Youtang waved his hand to get Huai 'en up.
"Among the ministers of the previous dynasty, Zhen once admired a person called Fan Zhongyan.”
"Fan Zhongyan once said,'Those who live high in the court worry about their people, and those who live far away in the Jianghu worry about their monarch.”
"These chivalrous men are afraid that the people of my Ming Dynasty can't afford to eat, so they rob the rich to help the poor.”
"This is a good thing, but I don't need some good-for-nothing to worry about my Great Ming!”
"Go, do it cleanly. Don't there be some sects in the martial arts world?”
"After a day, if Zhen still knows that there are people forming cliques, then you can stop being the supervisor of the East Chamber.”
Huai 'en accepted the order and left the palace.
The barbarians of the East Chamber and the experts were like tigers that had come out of their cages.
The sky of Northern Zhili was once again shrouded in dark clouds.
……
In the harem.
Renshou Palace.
Changning Bo Zhou Yu entered the palace.
He was Empress Dowager Zhou's younger brother.
"Royal Sister, save me."
Starting from today, Zhou Yu woke up early as usual.
However, the things that happened outside made his heart tremble.
The North and South Zhenfu Division of the Royal Guards, led by the double machetemen Qinglong, held the emperor's sword and fled to the residences of the royal families and vassals.
Everywhere he went, there was blood everywhere.
In just one day, more than 300 members of the imperial clan were slaughtered, leaving no one alive.
The Jinyiwei did not kill people randomly this time.
He first posted all the evidence of the imperial clan's land annexation and tax evasion outside the imperial clan's residence before starting the slaughter.
At this moment, the imperial clan and vassal kings of the Northern Zhili, including the two capitals and thirteen provinces, all panicked.
The land of Great Ming started to tremble because of Zhu Youtang's words.
The Brocade Guard was able to capture, confiscate, and exterminate the entire clan in an orderly manner. It was like the sharpest knife in Zhu Youtang's hand. Wherever it passed, not a single blade of grass would grow.
All the members of the imperial clan began to get nervous. Some people were so scared that they sent memorials to Zhu Youtang's court overnight, asking him to eliminate the vassal.
As a member of the imperial clan and the younger brother of the Empress Dowager, Zhou Yu was the representative of the imperial clan.
He was deeply afraid that this little Emperor who didn't recognize his own family would use him as a warning to the others, so he came to Benevolence and Longevity Palace early this morning.
"Royal Sister, save me! You must save me!”
Empress Dowager Zhou had heard a little and looked at the crying Zhou Yu as she said sternly,"How much did you take?"
Zhou Yu did not dare to hide anything." 56,000 mu of fertile farmland and 300,000 taels of jewelry and silver.”
Pa!
Empress Dowager Zhou raised her hand and slapped.
"Idiots like dogs!"
"What is the use of looking for this widow now?"
"You don't think that the imperial grandson will spare you for this widow's sake, right?”
Zhou Yu trembled in fear. So many land deeds and jewelry, they all belonged to the Zhou family!”
Empress Dowager Zhou was furious.
"Bullshit! These were all from the royal family! It's the imperial grandson's!"
"Go to Yangxin Palace Hall, kneel down and admit your mistake. Hand over all your corruption to the emperor and beg him to punish you.”
"You have to know that whether you die or not is up to the emperor. Are you tired of living?"
"The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, do you understand?”
Ever since he saw Zhu Youtang's terrifying and ferocious expression the last time.
Empress Dowager Zhou knew that as a woman, even if she was the head of the harem that had protected the emperor, she could not interfere with the imperial power at all.
Imperial power was not to be touched by anyone, especially the harem!
Empress Dowager Zhou still remembered this principle. This was the result of Zhu Youtang's pressure.
……
"Emperor, I, I, I have sent all the fertile fields to the Ministry of Revenue.”
"Emperor, this official requests the emperor to eliminate the vassal!”
Zhu Youtang looked playfully at Zhou Yu who was kneeling on the ground and said warmly,""Imperial Uncle, get up quickly."
"All of you are my relatives and family. Why should I cut off my vassal?”
Zhou Yu was overjoyed. Before he could say anything, his heart was in his throat.
"Your Majesty, this, this…I feel that as a member of the Imperial Family, we should share the country's worries when the Imperial Court is short of silver.”
Zhu Youtang nodded." Oh, Uncle, you have a heart. Alright, I will allow you."”
Zhou Yu's heart was finally settled.
For the Emperor to say this, it at least proved that his life was saved.
"I will take my leave."
Before he could take two steps, Zhu Youtang suddenly shouted,"Imperial Uncle."
Swoosh!
Zhou Yu suddenly knelt on the ground.”
Zhu Youtang smiled." When you have time, go to the harem to accompany Imperial Grandmother."”
"Yes."
He peed his pants.
When Zhu Youtang called him out of the blue just now, he thought that Zhu Youtang would settle the score later.
Zhou Yu patted his chest and left the palace.
……
With Zhou Yu taking the lead, in a few days, the words of the elimination of the vassal would fill the Forbidden City.
This was what Zhu Youtang wanted.
As for those who dared to oppose…
That should be because the Azure Dragon did not handle it well.
However, there shouldn't be such an ignorant imperial clan.
……
North Zhili, Hejian Prefecture.
Cangzhou official road.
Hundreds of chivalrous men held knives, spears, and sticks, and their mouths were full of benevolence and righteousness.
"Dog Emperor, the imperial court has so much silver in the treasury, but the people are starving everywhere. Today, we robbed the treasury of silver, and we didn't let down heaven and earth, and we didn't let down our parents.”
"These silver taels should be distributed to the people everywhere.”
"Everyone has the right to kill such a tyrannical new ruler.”
"Pavilion Elder Wan, Pavilion Elder Liu, and the other loyal ministers were all slaughtered. This is an immoral act!”
Were Wan An, Liu Ji, and the other three cabinet elders good people?
It could be considered.
At least in the hearts of the people.
Because they knew how to build their reputation. They spent most of their lives building their reputation.
Therefore, the martial artists respected them.
Was Zhu Youtang a good emperor?
At least, in the eyes of the martial artists, it was not.
Because of the violent suppression and decisive killing, many people secretly slandered the new king, and Zhu Youtang's reputation plummeted.
But did Zhu Youtang care?
If he cared about his reputation, he couldn't do anything. How could he realize his ambition?
These martial artists were concerned about the morals and righteousness in their hearts, and they were concerned about the livelihood of their families.
However, Zhu Youtang was in charge of the overall situation of the rise and fall of the Ming Dynasty!
Comparing the two, the difference was huge.
"Oh, really?"
In the sky, a voice that sounded like a great bell rang above the heads of these warriors.
"Why didn't I know?"
Willow leaves fell, and a strong wind blew. On a high branch, a eunuch in a crimson robe stood with his hands behind his back, which was particularly eye-catching.
"Our East Chamber needs to see if your heads and hearts are black or red!”
"I want him alive!"
"I want to see how your children and parents are going to survive after doing such a thing!" Wynne's sharp voice sounded.”
