Immediately, a row of eunuchs suddenly appeared.

Pick up the evidence in the hands of the imperial guards, and read it one by one.

"He Wenli, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, a man from Yangzhou, has been an official for eight years, embezzled a total of 1000 million taels of silver, worked for tigers, and killed [-] innocent people..."

"Shan Fuhai, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, from Liangzhou, has been an official for five years, embezzled a total of 500 taels of silver, bent the law for personal gain, colluded with the governor of Liangzhou, and misjudged [-] cases..."

……

"The censor, Yu Sheng, is from Nanjun. He has been an official for 12 years and has embezzled a total of 600 taels of silver..."

"Ke Nengqi, the servant of the Yellow Gate, from Danyang, has been an official for 16 years..."

"Shangzhou Governor Shi Zhangsheng..."

……

One pile after another, nearly a hundred officials' criminal evidence was exposed by the eunuch.

Up to the second rank official, down to the sixth rank, with the passage of time.

Yang Zhao couldn't see any emotion in his eyes, and he wasn't happy that he had found out these things.

He would rather not have these things, he might still be able to laugh.

Before he left the palace, he had already arranged Jin Yiwei and all the elite under his command to search for these criminal evidences.

The more the better, the best is that every corrupt official can get the punishment he deserves.

However, his manpower is limited, so far, there are still fish that slipped through the net, but fortunately, those are also small greedy.

Or the behavior is not too bad.

Those Yang Zhao didn't pursue it either, and they still didn't dare if they didn't find out.

After this incident, I believe that many officials have realized the emperor's determination.

If you continue to persist in your obsession, you will commit crimes against the wind, no different from a fool.

Yang Zhao this time is considered a big clean-up.

Blow away all the dark clouds in the court in one breath.

Cui Rong and the others looked shocked, they were still too young.

Who would have thought that His Majesty would not only target them, but almost all the gentry in the world.

Needless to say, almost all the people who were found out were from the noble family.

In this way, the world will be in chaos!

Cui Rong's eyes suddenly lit up, he had already planned to give up.

But now he seems to see hope again.

This is the gold medal for avoiding death that Yang Zhao sent to him.

After this incident, according to the law, they will all be imprisoned and await execution.

One thing worth noting is that there are some people, they will not be implicated in the family.

Some of them were implicated in the family, but the crimes committed did not reach that level.

At this time, I believe that many gentry will rush to the capital to ask for an explanation.

Yang Zhao's move seemed to be a total victory, but in fact he was forced to a dead end.

Before long, the eunuchs had finished reading.

Yang Zhaoshun arranged for some officials who had caused serious accidents to be executed, as for the rest.

There were too many, and Yang Zhao didn't try his best, so he could only lock them up temporarily and hand them over to Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, and the three divisions of inspectors for joint interrogation.

However, Cui Rong and others have not been convicted yet.

Cui Jin looked at Yang Zhao, and suddenly smiled:
"Aren't you going to convict us?"

"I really want to know, what crime will you convict me?"

Before Yang Zhao could answer, Cui Jin said to himself again:

"Tsk tsk tsk, what a pity, I know I will die, but I did all the bad things, and those people are already dead, so what can you do if you kill me?"

"They still can't survive. Anyway, I have those people buried with me, so it's not a loss."

Cui Jin laughed wildly, he was already a cornered criminal.

In this life, it is worthwhile to be able to talk to the emperor like this in the court.

I believe that my name will be left in history, even if it is notorious for thousands of years, it doesn't matter.

Let the world remember it.

Cui Rong glared at Cui Jin, what the hell is his nephew doing?
He has already thought of a way to escape, isn't this courting death?
Cui Rong didn't want to be as knowledgeable as Cui Jin, so he knelt down and said:

"Your majesty decides how to punish you if you know your crime. I don't regret death!"

Feng Deyi and Lu Qi are both old foxes. Seeing Cui Rong like this, they don't know that there must be tricks in it.

Originally they also wanted to be arrogant, but in the end they knelt down and pleaded honestly like Cui Rong.

Cui Jin looked down on these three people. In the end, he was afraid of being punished by the Nine Clans, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

Yang Zhao didn't bother to talk to the dying people at all, but what Cui Jin said reminded him.

Such a person is indeed not worthy of death.

"Be careful, Your Majesty!"

This sentence was yelled out by Xu Maogong.

When Yang Zhao walked back and passed Cui Jin, Cui Jin suddenly exploded.

A dagger appeared in one hand at some point!
Cui Jin knew that he had offended many people, so he had already developed the habit of carrying a weapon with him for self-defense.

Today was also a coincidence, as soon as Xu Maogong and others returned to the mansion, they escorted him towards the palace without saying a word.

Seeing the imperial army who wanted to interrogate them on the road, Xu Maogong and others directly revealed their identities.

The forbidden army also let go directly.

Xu Maogong changed his appearance again, so Yang Zhao naturally left him a gold medal to facilitate the smooth progress of the plan.

It was this kind of negligence that allowed Cui Jin to successfully enter the palace with a weapon.

Xu Maogong only had regret in his mind, he never thought that Cui Jin would have such a backhand.

I am careless.

Cui Jin's eyes were crazy, he was going to die anyway.

From the time Yang Zhao started to expose, such a crazy idea came into his mind.

If you can't survive by yourself, then make a living by yourself!

As long as he successfully holds Yang Zhao hostage, and when he leaves Chang'an, the sky will be as high as a bird can fly.

He kept his name incognito, looking for an opportunity to get back the silver he had hidden, and lived a life of chic and unrestrained.

As for the life and death of other people, what does it have to do with him?

If he didn't successfully hijack him in the end, he would die with the emperor at worst, and he would not lose money, as he would be accompanied by the emperor.

What a great honor!
Just when Cui Jin felt that he wanted it.

Yang Zhao turned around and put his palm directly on Cui Jin's jaw, which was a blow.

At the same time, the other hand grabbed Cui Jin's wrist, and with a slight twist, he snatched the dagger back into his hand.

Cui Jin clutched his neck, his eyes widened.

Staring at Yang Zhao in disbelief, he still doesn't understand what happened.

"With this trick, you still want to hijack me?"

Yang Zhao threw the dagger on the ground in disdain, glanced at Cui Jin mockingly, and continued walking towards the dragon chair.

"Oh, by the way, what you said just now is good, you really don't regret dying."

"Come here, put Cui Jin in prison! Give me a severe torture!"

Under Cui Jin's desperate eyes, he was taken down by the imperial army.

He thought about committing suicide, but the dagger was right in front of him, and he wanted to talk and insult Yang Zhao.

But Yang Zhao directly hit his Adam's apple, making him weak and unable to speak anything.
