Yu Huatian held the Son of Heaven's Sword in his hand.
What was the Son of Heaven's Sword?
There is no front to be upright, no top to be carried out, no bottom to be examined, and no side to be carried out. Above the clouds, below the Ji Ji. Once this sword is used, it can save the vassals and make the world submit to it!
Zhu Qiyu had given him the Sword of the Son of Heaven, which meant that he had given him the supreme imperial power.
The power to kill.
He handed it over to Yu Huatian.
This was a great trust!
This was the favor of the Son of Heaven!
Of course, Yu Huatian would not waver in the slightest.
The remaining civil and military officials in the court.
They all had their own forces and were very powerful.
Moreover, they pretended to be very good on the surface and their relationships with others were all intertwined.
These people were all Wang Zhen's henchmen, and they climbed up very quickly!
The commander of the three battalions of the imperial guards, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture…
They all held high positions and held great power!
If it was someone else, they might be afraid.
It wasn't that they were afraid of anyone, but that they were afraid of this kind of power!
Could it really be that he could eliminate the weeds and roots?
If there was a counterattack, Tian Zi's thoughts would change.
Then it was all over.
The eunuchs turned the executor into dust with a backhand attack.
There was such an example during the Zhuqi Town period.
In the early years, he did not favor the eunuchs like this.
As a loyal official, he would still have some space to attack the eunuchs and Wang Zhen's forces.
At that time, the officials also thought that this was a wise ruler.
But later, Zhu Qizhen changed his mind.
He put Wang Zhen in an important position and turned everyone else in the court into clowns.
This was the end.
But Yu Huatian would not think about this.
Perhaps he knew, but he didn't bother to think about it!
Perhaps he had already thought about it, and he had thought about it very deeply.
He believed that the world shouldn't be so filthy. He wanted to cleanse the world of filth, so that the bright clouds would disperse and the moon would shine for thousands of miles.
However, Zhu Qizhen, the emperor, could never realize his political ideals.
However, Zhu Qiyu could!
Therefore, even if Yu Huatian was thinking.
He would not think about it either.
He was the sharpest sword in the king's hand.
The Emperor's will was where his sword pointed!
Wherever he went, he would wipe out all evil!
Only in this way could the court be clear.
Only then would the world prosper!
Counterattack?
The high officials in the court had plenty of methods to counterattack.
They had a lot of resources in their hands.
But against the Son of Heaven's Sword, all counterattacks were useless!
Three days later!
Carriages of silver, jewelry, jade…
They were pulled by ox-carts and formed a huge convoy that was sent to the national treasury.
This was the choice of many extremely vigilant ministers without hesitation.
At night, no one was seen at night.
All of a sudden, carts of treasures appeared.
He was begging for mercy.
The high-ranking official who did this would escape death!
But there were still many people left.
He did not do so.
Some of them were determined to resist.
What a joke.
After working with Eunuch Wang Zhen for so many years, how could he easily take out the wealth he had accumulated?
Otherwise, wouldn't he be embezzling for nothing?
Some were just observing.
Emperor, are you trying to trick us?
Actually, he didn't have the name list?
He couldn't be fooled easily!
These people had never thought about it.
The emperor would not bargain with his subjects!
One word was more important than the nine cauldrons!
"The three days are up!"
Swoosh!
Yu Huatian pulled out Tian Zi's sword.
This sword was the power of the Son of Heaven!
No one could escape the sword!
The entire capital was in an earthquake.
Countless masters of the West Hall were moving around.
This earthquake was like the sky collapsing and the earth shattering.
The source of its power was the current emperor, Emperor Jingtai!
And the sword charging in front was the West Branch Duke, Yu Huatian!
"Don't kill me! Don't kill me! Our Wang Clan has been an official for generations, and we are a great clan…Ah!”
"Spare me! I'm willing to give up all five hundred thousand taels of silver in my family and retire!”
The eunuchs who were watching were all terrified and kowtowed to beg for mercy.
"Too late!"
Yu Huatian was incomparably cold.
Sword light flashed!
The eunuchs 'heads fell to the ground!
"Kill! Kill them all! The Emperor had ordered that anyone who dared to stop him would be killed without mercy!”
Yu Huatian was undergoing a major purge.
The emperor was so benevolent!
I'll let you eunuchs live!
But you are hesitating.
The Emperor's benevolence was bestowed upon them.
How dare you not accept it!
If the emperor gave it to you but didn't take it, then you're dead!
"Empress Dowager! We must report this to the Empress Dowager!"
"Emperor Jingtai is on a killing spree. This can't be! When the Orthodox Emperor was in power, there had never been such a thing!”
The Palace of Earthly Tranquility.
The Empress Dowager took the complaint in her hand and read it one by one.
So many names were extremely shocking!
These people were once officials in the imperial court and had great power.
He was even related to the Empress Dowager. Otherwise, he wouldn't have sent the memorial into the palace!
The Empress Dowager looked at him and suddenly asked,"
"Qingya, if it were you, what would you do?”
"Aunt, Qing Ya doesn't dare to talk about the government.”
A clear voice replied.
It turned out that there was a young girl standing beside the Empress Dowager.
The young girl was about fifteen or sixteen years old. She was tall and had a beautiful appearance. There was a hint of heroism in her eyes.
"No matter, this widow will test you.”
the empress dowager said.
The girl named Qing Ya was a junior in her family.
Recently, he was called into the palace to accompany him.
"If it were me, I would take these people away and let Yu Huatian Yuchang Gong deal with them.”
Qing Ya didn't hesitate.
"The Emperor has ordered Yu Huatian to hold the Emperor's Sword. This is the Emperor's will. You need to know that the palace and the government are one. If you interfere in this matter in the palace, it is the same as disobeying the Emperor's orders in the court.”
"Even Aunt shouldn't be like this!”
The Empress Dowager's expression changed.
"Very good, Qingya. You're the most outstanding person in this generation of the family.”
The more the Empress Dowager looked at Qing Ya, the more satisfied she became.
"Men, pass these memorials to Yu Huatian and let him deal with them ruthlessly according to the emperor's orders!”
When the Empress Dowager issued an order, the palace naturally obeyed.
Soon, the heads of the ministers who had delivered the memorials were chopped off, and the capital was covered in blood!
……
In the bedroom.
Zhu Qiyu was reading the memorial.
A bloodbath in the capital was only right!
The wealth of the officials had yet to be fully excavated.
It would take time to count and search one by one.
However, his current wealth was already astonishing.
These vermin!
It fed on the flesh and blood of the country!
Not only in the capital.
Could it be that all the officials in the four seas were incorruptible?
There were no eunuchs?
The wealth of the officials in the capital was enough to fill the national treasury several times over.
To what extent had the world's finances been eroded by these people?
He had to change the tax system!
Collect taxes from corrupt officials!
Collecting taxes from the great clans!
Dig out all the people's fat that these people had absorbed!
There were also vassal kings!
This was even more of a problem for Da Ming.
They had to be dealt with one by one!
At this moment, Zhu Qiyu was thinking.
His expression was so angry that Cao Zhengchun did not even dare to breathe loudly.
At this moment.
"The Empress Dowager called me?"
Zhu Qiyu stood up.
"You said that my cousin is here?"
